lyrics spot on, pop= shit, rock= awesome, fuck the image, its all about the music, which pop musicians cant do either. slf awesome band! kickass song!
I believe in the power of guitar and drum. I bekieve in the power of Stiff Little Fingers. Have been believing them since I learned about them in 1979, made me switch from a Ska-skin to a PuNK, due to their brilliant cover of "Doesn't make it allright", from The Specials. Hanx fellaz for decades of being there with the power of guitar, drum and powerful music.
Here's a song that's got it right- music is about the music. Not the fame, the clothes, the scenes, and all that other shit people get all hung up on.
There's so much I'd like to say about this song...it's got a lot of meaning to me. One of my favorites by this band, one of the first songs I ever learned to play, mine and my ex's song...seriously, this song will forever hold a place in my heart. Fucking brilliant.
"gotta eat mcfood play with barbie drink coca cola dont do anything that marks you as solo only use your brain for playing nentendo consume anything with corporate logos"
Good song but I prefer some of their other stuff such as "Wasted Life" "Each dollar a bullet" "Fly the Flag" "At the Edge" "Johnny Was" "Two guitars clash". In fact I like all of their songs. Best Irish band ever.
The Funkussionist has listened to the Pogues a lot. In fact some of the bands I have drummed for used to cover some of their material. I have a lot of respect for Shane MacGowan and the Pogues but I personally prefer to listen to Stiff Little Fingers.

Funkussionist clearly hasn't heard The Pogues before.
They're not the best, but damn close.

erm... joestrummer95
this song is TALKING about crap today. read the lyrics!!
"there are songs about sex sung by an 8 year old"
"well i cant believe that everyone is happy with the newest teen sensation carbon copy"
its saying that today people are following the crowd too much and i agree, people "dont do anything that marks them as solo"
and anyway, if you dont like the song, dont listen to it. get a grip and stop wasting yours and everybody elses time
