I miss my high school days....when I used to rock out listening to The Specials, The English Beat and other SKA bands.....now my kids are in high school and watch You Tube Videos of the bands of my youth....I love the gift of technology.
This is ska. Pure, Simple, Timeless, and Brilliant.
So fck off all you smelly old nonces pretending to be 14. And if you are a young one..great.. good luck to you..but don't keep telling us wiser dudes how immature you are. Just enjoy ffs.
@rhcp212 I would love that... as it stands i see the odd one here and there, and none with enough quality new material, but its ok to hear them just do covers I guess...
has truly lost meaning to Me. Strength in numbers, Nonviolence. Not thru Seperation. Learn about yourself. The more I read the less I know. Oh wait, knowledge is Power. I remember that used to be a slogan. Thoughtful one indeed.
i like a lot of fucked up music, but i also like a lot of music that really hits your heart. I haven't listened to the Specials in a long time, but i have to say. Very honest, and down to heart. It really hits me, especially considering how Seperation has really come into full sprawl nowadays. God, I'm a young kid, and I feel like I have the mind of someone over 65 because of what I've been exposed to. Thank you, Almighty Oppressors, for truly just dividing mankind and kin, Power. That Word
I met Sir Horace Gentleman(specials Bass player) when he was on tour with General Public. My band the Untouchables opened up for them. I asked him what the fuck that chant was? He broke it down like this.......
3 lines
(1) there's gonna be a bloody accident
(2) you're gonna get your fuckin head kicked in
(3) you're goin home in a speeding ambulance
then they sang all three of the lines at the same time, so.......It sounded more chaotic and confusing!
better than bob marley's "concrete jungle" in my opinion

@26highstreet Just down to sensorship by record companies and media.
when the song was played live the words were "You're gonna get you're get you're fuckin head kicked in"
and thats how Jerry Dammers wrote it.....
The song was dubbed with a mixture of "you're going home in a fuckin ambulance and " You're gonna meet a nasty accident
