  • guevara said thats crazy

  • I'm 17. My mum introduced me to The Levellers before I started school. I remember listening to this song on casset in the back of a car when I couldn't even see out the window! Years down the line, the drummer is the very reason I learnt drums, I saw my first levellers gig at about 10. He inspired me.

    I just recently started learning violin. No prizes for guessing who inspired me this time ;) <3

  • @JudasActionFigure Man, just wana say your mum has taste as do you, keep up with drums dude.

  • @1lovevrastaunity Haha thank you very much! I have 30 Levellers songs on my ipod, my mum has all the albums :) I'm still going, 7 years now! Thank you (:

    what a beautiful day - im the king of all time

  • I'm 14, The levellers are my life! seen them over 10 times already:')

  • @randombeccax Lucky! I'm 15 and also love these! Id love to see these live!

  • @BillyP96 It's amazing having a dad who listens to great music :P haha

  • Limerick City, kid!!!!!

  • I really wish I'd been a teenager in the nineties rather than the noughties because of all the fantastic music around then. It's a shame I was too young to appreciate bands like The Levellers and Shed 7 back then and it's only now I'm 20 that I'm discovering all these wonderful bands. Oh well, it's better to discover later in your life than not discover them at all.

  • glad you found the levellers. Believe me there was just as much dross around at that time. I used to manage a few bands and we struggled to get gigs due to the rave fever

  • Swansea City!<3

  • SCFC <3

  • Gonna see them live on the 2.6. .. cant wait!!!

  • The 60's and the 90's were great era's for music

  • @BlackCountryYamYam Its funny in the 90's everyone was saying all the music was crap. I reckon good music is always with us, you just have to sift through all the crap first !

  • @TomSouthLondon Very true mate

  • Was on the fifth of November,

    When time it went back,

    Some say that that's impossible,

    But you and I, we never looked back,

    And wasn't it incredible,

    So beautiful and above all,

    Just to see the fuse get lit this time,

    To light a real bonfire for all time....

    I just love that song.

    Guy Fawkes....

  • This is the greatest song ever helped by my brother Simon Friend.

  • my best song ever i sing it every week to a tea :)

  • what a beautiful day..

  • the last person who walked into Parliament with any honest intentions was Guy Fawkes :)

  • gather around . The levellers are here

  • Thanks to my dad for getting me into the Levellers. So many memories listening to them in the car with him. :D

  • yeah...end of the 90's..living in england/leicester at that time ...happy memories..

  • louise a bullet and daughter for going with the coon.

  • cracking tune such a uplifting tune

  • shit video/amazing song

  • haha,, i had a few people at college have a go at me today... had this in my head all day!! couldnt stop singing it :P

    bloody great song!!

  • Brilliant!

  • staat in mijn geheugen gegrift,zoals vele andere mooie momenten ;-)

  • Not the 5th of november but the 7th of march :-)

  • just woke up to glorious sunshine. only one thing entered my mind...

  • Songs like this bring back my adolescence, summer in school lying on the grass. 90s UK music was something else.

  • i just can't get this line outta my head : WHAT A BEAUTIFULL DAY

  • crappy vid ! hurts the eyez -_- but the song remains the same ,, just gotta tune in ;)

  • the 90's were great for music....happy memories

  • @TigerIPanzer Too true.

  • @TigerIPanzer its from 2007...

  • @saltyluvssofas you're wrong man..the track 'what a beautiful day' by the Levellers was originally released in 1997.

  • @TigerIPanzer fair comment haha

  • Original is nothing on these guys..... immaculate

  • I first listened to this on the 7th of November 2009, it obviously had an effect on me for me to remember the exact date I heard it.

  • make's any rainy day sunny ;-]

  • What a great group

  • The Levellers were named after a group in the English Civil War who were in a sense the first `communists` - they wanted to abolish the class structure and establish `common ownership`.

    Great band, amazing song.

  • @duran9418 This information is very interesting, as well as usual for me, thank you very much for your apportation ;)

  • @duran9418 Could do with that now.

  • @duran9418

    so they were admiring communism ?

  • @Bogdixable No mate, there was no such thing as `communism` in the 1600`s...It WAS `communism` in its purist form: abolition of the class structure and `common ownership` like I said. Forget Russia post-1917 cos it wasnt about that stuff.

    Dont we all want to live as one and be happy. Surely. Maybe a `crazy idea`, but whilst theres those that dream it `nothing is impossible`..! Love and peace, I`m `Out`!

  • @duran9418 Right on -

    "There were only countries who tried to fool everyone that the soviet union was communist. One was the USA and the other was Russia." (Paraphrased) Noam Chomsky

  • Yeah, this is awesome.

    I tell you what though, at the time I only thought it was "OK". I didn't realise how spoilt we were in the 90s compared to today's desolate, X factor , autotuned auralscape.
