  • Don't forget one thing from history. Americans are just some hopeless European peasants.

  • Thumbs up if you were born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee

  • Wow he has come a long way from this. Great song btw.

  • @MrPinkFloydz as an american I really don't get why anyone would want to act like their from the states.

  • saw him a couple of weeks ago - was amazing

  • maybe the people who thumbed down don't like the song...

  • Comment removed

  • @fifib90 who thumbed this down? well i have a sneaking suspicion they were from the states ! thumbs up from this brit !!!!!!!

  • @trigg2803 You do know this song is about brits pretending to be from the states right? Basically, about hipster cunts.

    <3 Frank, some fucking brilliant music from him! :)

  • @minidazzler yea i know mate,it say's it at the start of the tune, maybe it was a brit pretending to be american who thumbed it down ! they clearly have no taste, unlike us lot !!!!! he he

  • who the hell thumbed this DOWN?!!!!

  • i wanted to go see him on the 26th but im too damn young to get in. PLAY THE OPERA HOUSE TORONTO ONTARIO PLEAAAASE FRANK

  • @1223dude1223 Or... the Park Playhouse in Cobourg... only 40 mins from Toronto and, more importantly... only 10 mins from my place, haha. ;)

  • @thepunkfish109 cobourg, thats hella far from my house hahahaha. i live down in the gorgina area, sutton, pefferlaw, keswick stuff like that

  • @1223dude1223 Ha. Okay... I'll compromise at Oshawa.

  • This song isn't having a go at america its about being true to yourself and not being who you arnt.

  • im frm hants just down the road from winchy ur a ledgend franky boy

  • Americans do have a culture. its called a gun culture. think for yourself if it works.

  • hes not saying eanything bad about americans... juts people who is pretending to be American, like Brittish singers putting on a yanky accent!!!

  • thanks frank this proves that America does have culture..but it might not be the best we do have it...by the way we all don't think like the people who lead use..so don't hate us when we come over there to visit across the pond

  • shut up you loser haha, frank turner owns (:

  • Don't worry we wont hate you for being american. ;) I admit i'm biased towards 'ye average american' though.

    Comes from living in the country of beer and most of the ones I see are embarassingly drunk and being assholes.

    Anywho, the Us has alot of different cultures. There is no such thing as a country that big with one culture. Hell, I live in belgium and we have 3 distinct large ones.

  • good on ya frank! modern day freekin' genius

  • I think frank turner is top, but i have never met anyone who pretends to be an american when they are not.

    Maybe i am just lucky.

  • I've heard plenty of musicians who try to make their music sound American, it sound like this song is mainly about them.

  • oh, right its just i thought he meant act like americans, but if he means sing with an american accent then thats fair enough, although with so many of british peoples influences being american it can be difficult for some.

  • Saw Frank last night supporting the Levellers in Birmingham. He was great and this was one of my favourites from his set. Will buy some of his albums online asap.

  • i just cant beleive frank is still not in the mainstream?? what the fuck has the music business come too - it seems that money can now get u into the top 40 instead of talent!!! GO FRANK

  • i love hearing him on the radio and i definitely won't be one of those 'fans' who start to hate when their favorite acts gets big. GO FRANK

  • He certainly deserves it, but i think cause his songs are so straight to the point, those mainstream idiots will just reject him and he'll go down in a shower of censorship.

    Thankfully, I hear him on Radio one quite regularly, fantastic live, fantastic song. His album doesn't put a foot wrong either.

  • ha just noticed what the tags are for this video,

    "hippie, burner, campfire" what the fuck?? ha!

  • erm

    the campfire one is there because this is from his album "Campfire Punkrock"

  • I think "hippie burner" is because he often takes the piss out of hippies. I remember at beautiful days he came on stage and said, "Wow, I was really worried this was going to be a hippie festival, I'm so glad it's not" or something along those lines.

  • fucking awesome!!!

  • Aha, I adore that you can see him loving every minute of this... (:

  • hahah this songs frigging perfect!

  • I like the way he very obviously doesn't give a fuck about insulting anyone or being very open with his views. What an admirable man :)

    He's just one of those I could listen to every day.

    xxx

  • Seems a bit conceited. Good song though..

  • Conceited? he;s just proud to be from England.

  • whats he mean? as in people who act like americans?

    haha why would anyone want to act like an american lol.

  • I love that he's so honest in all his songs

  • ALBINO PHIl *cough*

  • Hate the riff??!! It's the best bit!!! lol

  • Was recently introduced to the wonder that is Frank Turner. Saw him live in sunny Weymouth. Was Brilliant!

  • Such a good song.
