UB40 Don't Let It Pass You By

[Uperiwv]

There ain't no heaven and there ain't no hell

except the one we're in and you know too well

There's no one waiting on, waiting on a higher high

Don't let the only world you're ever gonna live in pass you by

[Pmcinspection]

Takes me back in time, cant believe its over 20 years ago, me and the lads sat in my old bedroom, listening to UB40, smoking ganga, our mam going mad about the smell, we didnt give a fuck

[145keely]

i took my dad to see the last show they did as a whole group brings tears to my eyes everytime i hear them

[yorkie6687]

Ali Campbell, you are still the best mucker!

[dacerace2]

Yes...UB40....before they sold out....They had there own sound...a sort of haunting echo...even the dark and political songs just take you to a warm summers day...or is it just me???

[TheDazbruce]

[agreenbeard]

if you do the work the way we want it for the reasons we want it you'll be in and if not your out. if you happen to fall in we can soon push you out. We might use your music to mascarade our creation. This is our world, if you dont like it go make your own, your not welcome in this one. we are not even interested in you. once you know all this you know where to lay your foundations.

[OvertlyRevolutionary]

Love UB40 before their Red Wine sell-out to commercialism. This was their BEST music compilation, in my opinion. Thanks so much for posting the original of this. Great memories....

[ekhornbeck127]

I hear that... if nothing else, at least during the early days they were true to themselves and the lifestyle they lived... i mean to meet some people in a dole que and then run with it, you just don't get any of that these days cos its all manufactured crap.

Those were indeed... the days

[steph31111]

@OvertlyRevolutionary  I agree mate this tune should be the national anthem!

[ZombeeXTC]

love this tune brings back great memories

[whiskeychimp]

Nice..been waiting for the original.Thanks man..
