  • Beautiful song. One of my favs together with carry me an battle of the beanfield.

  • Ive seen this band twice and loved every song

  • wow - EVEN better than the cd version, i really need to see them live, does any1 know where the'll be playing next

  • Saw them play last night.....they were out of this world, again.

  • Don't fight other people's battles...

  • stop,being political this is happening now

  • man should on fight to defend his home and family . english soldiers go back to your homes and family

  • First song I learnt to play on the guitar :D

    And how long ago was this first written?

    Maximum respect for our troops No Surrender x

  • Great song ... great fiddle ... love it ... very moving lyrics

  • there from brighton which is where i'm from

  • true that,best thing we can do is buy the albums of these bands and not download for free!!!!

  • @Nanaimouk Mark has said they dont give a shit if people download their music :) They make their money the way bands should do...by touring and they earn every fucking penny

  • the fucked up thing is that we care more about these soldiers' lives than they do themselves!

  • makes me wanna cry with anger!!!

  • so many lost lives to other mens causes. when will the madness stop?

  • thats n old video iv interviewed mark and the rest

  • I think there the greatest  English band ever . An awesome live band

    5+++

  • update 2009... "and your brother was killed in Afghanistan, fighting for another man's cause...timless ballad from a great band

  • timeless, your´re right, some things never change

  • real good song, i like this band

  • wow just found this, aint heard it in ages so want the mp3

  • i'v just got home from afgan this song means so much to me for the friend i'v lots and the hero's i'v met x

  • Great bands stand the test of time and they are truely great. How many of todays bands will still be around in 20 years time??? 1 maybe 2 at the most.The Levellers never got the recognition they deserved purely because they wouldnt play the game. The money they made went to build their own recording studio so they made the records they wanted to and not dictated to by record company moguls..A real band playing real music,with real instruments making real ballads.Enough said .

  • just gonna say the new album is fucking ace@adiechip 

  • Another hero of war. Great song, great band - easy and enjoyable to play...

  • awesome lyrics from a top band who actually believe in something!!

  • wOWW from brazil

  • great song!!!!!

  • i saw them once at the wickerman years ago but back then it was difficult to find thier stuff for some reason. So grateful that it has been put on youtube now hanks alot

  • Flipin heck this is an old one hehe they look well young on this! watched them twice in the last 6 months an they are still as good as ever x

  • Brilliant lyrics, which could be relevent for ANY war that has ever been fought .

    As for the racism thing we are all members of one race, humans, the rest is geography.

  • Hear hear

  • Von wann ist dieser Auftritt? Scheint ja schon was älter zu sein.

  • well done for putting this on - brings back memories of dreads, piercings, and good times back in the day.

    all the best to you all

  • i ran from the faukllands cost me my freedom but im alive peace

  • love music, smash fascism and racism. 'mon the levellers, fuck the british nazi party

  • saw them in Cork a few years back, one of the best live bands ever!

  • Insanely poignant, as relevant today as ever.

  • best group live seen many times

  • fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fa­b>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>­fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fa­b>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>­fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fa­b>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>fab>­fab>fab>

  • BNP - Bigoted Nazi Pricks

  • the levellers are nazi's? wtf

  • no the british national party are nazis

  • i was wonderin tht lol, i went to see them at beautiful days but unfortunately got so pissed i missed them twice haha

  • awesome, anyone no were i can get one of marks hats

  • met em at glastonbry 2005 class act class people!

  • what a great song, this stuff takes me back 15 years!!!

  • Geez..brings memories back..

  • I like the song so much .. Nice lyrics

  • Excellent song.

  • They lyrics to this song were apt back then. They are even more apt for the shit we're in today. Time to bring the lads and lasses back home instead of defending America's oil fields.

  • I agree with you... except they're not "America's old fields", they're Iraq's oil fields, and they're not "defending" them, they're stealing them.

  • (sorry, typo quoting you... meant to write "America's oil fields"...)

  • I cry every time this plays.

    Awesome song though.

  • this song rings home to me i love it

  • LOL we fought for the Falklands for oil as well.. but i suppose it was just as the people wanted to stay loyal to britain and argentinia was essentially just making a colonial grab

  • I love this song!! gives me goose-bumps.

    one off the best songs ever written

  • This is just an amazing song!

  • well said chilling.

    Vote Left List / Respect!

  • wow this is a really good band

  • ooohh i am gonna see these at glastonbury this year. the only band from the whole four days i wanna watch...

  • One of the great anti-war songs along with Zombie, Born In The USA, and War! And the most poignant.

  • ten basák je fanatik:)))

  • ten basák je fanatik:)))

  • ten basák je fanatik:)))

  • ten basák je fanatik:)))

  • they are fucking brilliant!!!!

  • tony bairs a cunt

  • agreed!

  • amen brother.....gordon browns no better though

  • i agree jwballs

    i said blairs a cnt

    but really thatcher the witch was the worst..she had no intensions of making peace with argentina over the falklands...so ignited the falklands war to get elected and the stupid fukheads fell for it...

    thankfully now times have changed and war is not a vote winner

    ..tony blair only got in last time because the conservatives were unelectable..

    im voting respect next time..the only real anti-war party

    ..

  • mate...you an me should go into polotics together...sort out this wreck we call a country

  • its not exactly politics all they do is say yer we will join this country in a war and it is in iraq this time our troops have basically been sent in to be killed our government isnt exactly the best but my vote goes to bnp from now (british national party) atleast they care about the welfare of the country

  • but DO they care about the country? or there own well being? we dont know

  • BNP? Jesus Christ....

  • yes bnp and i dnt care wat ppl say coz im british and if ya dnt like it then walk away

  • I'm Brittish too, but I'd rather not vote for the racist bigot party, because I'm not racist nor a bigot.

  • there not racist. any other country would of been up in arms rioting years ago the way britain puts the minority above the majoraty.

  • They are racist. And no they wouldn't. Britain hasn't because the majority of us aren't racist. The amount of immigrants in the country is absolutely miniscule compared to people born here. The only people with a problem with it are those that don't like being surrounded by people who are "different" - racists.

  • read my message again. i never said anything about the number of immigrants.

  • No but you said "minority". I read between the lines.

  • your wrong to do so. all i ment is that the government will go out of there way to not upset the minority even if it upsets the majority.

  • Firstly, they go out their way to look after minorities because they have the odds stacked against them. That is only right and fair. And why don't you explain exactly what minorities you mean then?

  • look here you assholes just shut the fuck up this song is aswome so just quit your bitching coz nobody cares your silly little world were people care about stupoid internet battles because even if you prove the other person wron g you will still be a socail retad

  • piss off gaylord. i no this song is great why do you think i was watchin it on youtube you nob jocky.

  • My goodness, I feel sorry about folk feeling so cross they have to use this language. You OBVIOUSLY care. It's plain to any reader. In life not everyone will have the same opinion. Just be 'an observer' to their words, not engage emotionally...so much angst on some of these sites.. I wouldn't waste my energy getting cross about something I couldn't change. Much more chilled.

  • well said bunnichello.

  • brilliant!!!!

  • they sound beautiful when there live i love them

  • This song is more then 15 years old

    but sad to say still so actual...
