The Jam - Going Underground

[KyKy1997Ere]

Hey there. I noticed you haven't got a "Save-Your-Ass Button" Yet. So I'll be that:

I'm going to do it because this song is SOOOOO0:00OOO Awesome

See what I did that?

[JimmiCooper]

There's only a few track's I never switch off early..this is one of them. If you like this check out the JimmiCooper Channel version of Going Underground on Youtube....remixed for 2012 for 30th anniversary of The Jam split....it's now listed a top video on Twitter.

[admanphoto]

Always loved the Jam and Weller's lyrics. Hated Foxton's stupid shoes in this vid though. And don't get me started on his haircut!

[eddiebear100]

The Modfather rules.

[shrillcarder]

Your right mate this song is an anthem but you and i know u had to come from that time to appreciate these guys, in my opinion music these days i just a load of fucking bollox!

[814DAN418]

This isn't just a song... it's a fucking anthem.

[PS3xMedia]

take your oyster card, and shove it up your arsehole

[24nov67]

[PS3xMedia]

[ThePurpleHarpoon]

Coolest drummer on earth !

[TheKiwiGeeza]

[roogalater]

Sharp, cool, powerful, classy, angry, everysong an anthem. How could they have been any better? I'm glad I saw them while I could.

[mcyav]

[jesusitorunner]

[WannabeLyricist]

I always hope I'll find myself a band like this to play in, then I realise there is only one of THE JAM!

[MrAuPif]

Classic sound of 80's generation. Check out the remixed version for 2011 on youtube.com/user/JimmiCooper/v­ideos

[TheWiggz22]

Brits rule ok

[TheHitDetector]

One of their best tracks....this is superb

[fabulousgerro661]

Class!



[GGreg2010]

That's the jam.

[oioioioi98h]

this song reminds me of my dad so much

[bokke1970]

This is why British music has been the envy of the world since the 60s, from the guts and the pulse of the streets.

[Summersify1]

@bokke1970 I'm sorry, I think you've mistaken our country for another ;) :D

[Shaunysmum]

@0zzy0100 Glad to see the younger generation appreciate good music, Ive bought Shaun a guitar for christmas, so i will video him singing this and upload it, He is singing Green Day American Idiot on here take a look, thats another one of his favourite songs.

[sharkattacksteve]

I saw The Jam in "78 at the Old Waldorf in Frisco. They were awesome for a 3 piece. They were certainly better than the Pistols live. The Hot Rods were really good live also

[seitenshow]

The drummer's a mad cunt.

I love his false (casual) steps. Makes it look so easy. Second favourite from The Jam.

[JJWebber8961]

Thanks to my dad for pumping this music into my head when i was younger im now 15 and love them :D

[Earzz124]

RIP Zeberdee

[NuckyBishop]

;;;;;;)))))))))))

[daveyloveable]

This tune was Number 1 in the uk chart at the time I was born. How awesome is that!!!!

[DamianoMurdock]

suonds good!

[mattjarmyn]

god dam this song is epic

[jointsajumpin]

Would it be possible to add any more feckin adds to videoes that are free to air

[MadMark90]

[MrEmilydotcom]

they certainly knew how to dress................

[binahJVC]

the football factory !

[Toad166666]

@binahJVC no the firm

[NuckyBishop]

Im 2 and this is my fav song;)

[Matty6660]

this song gets boring after 3:05...

[TheAw360me]

@Matty6660 The solution to that is the replay button ;)

[str8breetha]

@Matty6660 that comment got boring after the first few days of youtube



[TheLuigi69]

[tommyluvstraci]

Greatest song from the Greatest band EVER.

[Thinkingjelle]

[cricketbat08]

What an absolute classic.

[p3tcu]

MONEY MONEY MONEY.. Go underground Do the Diggin Do the FILLIN ?? ?? LIKE HOW WHOT ..MONEY GOING UNDERGROUND,, HaHAha,,,,

[Westsidegangzter]

Didn't they have toothbrushes at their time?

[vashna3799]

England's last great 3 piece rock band

[YelenaRoX]

@vashna3799 the cure?

[vashna3799]

@YelenaRoX no

[YelenaRoX]

@vashna3799 yes.

[YelenaRoX]

@vashna3799 well i like the cure as well :)

[MahLifeAsStan]

when the song started I thought, "I heard this thing before", and then when i clicked away I thought "LONDON UNDERGROUND".

[MultiFunkalicious]

Quality

[Shaunysmum]

My Boy is 4 and this is his favourite song :)

[MRzJaii]

@Shaunysmum little hooligan when hes older haha ;)

[evanbeahan]

@Shaunysmum ur boy is the best

[lukewelden]

@Shaunysmum GET IN! GROWING UP TO PROPER MUSIC!

[0zzy0100]

@Shaunysmum really awesome i'm 10 and i love this song

[RockerWarrenMOViES]

@Shaunysmum You've trained him well :P

[beachhutblues]

The worst thing Weller ever did was to break this great band up prematurely, only to go and make that awful racket with The (no) Style Council.

You just can't beat a trio for power.

[elFaZeD]

class.

[muller74]

The bass run at 2:40 makes that song for me. Great bass player !

[roryrobinson]

@muller74 I second that, The Jam had some awesome basslines.

[NewRomanticx]

Nothing beats this! :) <3

[tfifriday1]

First heard this in 1984 or 1985 when I was about 5 years old. My Dad used to collect the tokens on the sachets of Angel Delight (an after-dinner desert thingy) who were running a promotion where you could send away for a free mix tape of chart tunes.

I remember skipping the theme tune from the TV show FAME to get to this. Got the Compact Snap album years later and still love them today.

[Wilthomer66]

This video marks some interesting Jam moments..the longest Weller's hair ever was, the last time Buckler wore a suit and the last time you saw Foxton with a Rickenbacker.

[tony671]

This when the jam started togo straight to no1 was 3 or 4 in a row right in at number 1 when you had to sell a half million 45s now you get into the top ten if you sell 30,000. bought this the day it came out and weller just looks so cool in this video! BIG JAM FAN! MOD TO THE CORE, TILL I DIE.POW!

[MultiMagoon]

jam is soo very much better than the style council - what the hell happened to paul weller in between?

[wingman662]

@MultiMagoon I think you dont get the style council - it the mid 80's punk and mods had passed, Paul was such a visionary he saw the break up of the soviet union check out "walls come tumbling down "

[MrDannybeast]

Tommy Johnson now follows rugby... BOLLOCKS

[MrJerseymod]

still the greatest statement of the 80s yet!

[eclectica1]

@beefmanbud Um, yes I can. How ignorant of you.

[MonkeyHunch]

@1gloomyfucker lol

[MonkeyHunch]

@1gloomyfucker your ears just heard this song for first time and orgasmd???

[JaspyyStarcraft]

unfortunately I'm 18, and was too young to see them live, but however in just over a months time i should be seeing The Jamm, supposed to be their best tribute band. I know it will be nothing like they were, but hopefully ill get a small insight into what these legends where like live.

[tony671]

@JaspyyStarcraft No m8 no diss but im 47 and was lucky to the Jam twice the buzz till old dad Weller came to the stage and said now for the fuckin greatest band in the world THE JAM! BUT GO SEE FROM THE JAM you will still get a buzz from Wellers songs no doubt well played but you did really have to have seen them at the top of they're game. great music great clothes and so just so cool.we could pray to the gods of music they tour one more time but dont see it happening weller says no

[urbanguerilla93]

Indonesia,,,

[Bigbearbeau]

one of fave drummers....

[TheVerve480]

@beefmanbud You don't know what they're saying, but you come from the country that gave us Jay Z and all those other idiots I don't even want to name.

[andries1011]

Dutch

[andries1011]

Great memory‘s at the 80‘s. “Hole in the wall“ El Arenal Mallorca.

[Pat8033]

Fantastic band...had the privelage of seeing them live in the 80's

[MultiMagoon]

brit bands have always had an edge that other countries just cant seem to reach,not quite sure why

[KyKy1997Ere]

@MultiMagoon No country ever will, aswell. British Music is pretty much the only country who can Handle a Guitar & sing brilliant at the same time :P

[icantgetnosleeep]

why is that fucking awful advert beforehand so loud and then the jam are so quiet. Marketeers kill yourselves.

[Ebob39]

BEEFMANBUD you are American and can not understand this briliant music I am British and can not understand American music.

[TheWaypalm]

@beefmanbud I'm British and I can understand all of it easily.

[whirlpoolzend]

Rik: 1) Drums (superb)

Bruce: 1) Bass playing (superb) 2) Movement 3) Dress 4) His ability to spell 5) His voice.

Paul: 1) The Jam.

[soulire18881]

u made ur bed u better ly in it

[olliemarzzy]

@ThatKidKnows London undergrounnnnd

[ThatKidKnows]

Some people like to get a train to work

Or drive in a Beamer or a Merc

Some guys like to travel by bus

But I can't be bothered with the fuss today

I'm gonna take by bike

'Cause once again the Tube's on strike.

[jinty59]

Paul Weller had it all look's great voice and some great hit's

[BlackRoseLyrics1]

me and my dad listen to the jam all the time & im 14

[SxcGurl2k9]

@BlackRoseLyrics1 Who gives a shit?

[LlamaJudge]

I WANT THAT TIE

[morgridable]

@LlamaJudge I want the guy with that tie! :)

[KyKy1997Ere]

@morgridable LOL, Probably not now :L

[OFFICIALHarryCleaver]

just realised this song is at the end of The Football Factory.

[Spacebunny1999]

I'm 12, and this is my favourite song.

[frididjurhuus]

@Spacebunny1999 So what if you're 12?

[TotalKaiserChiefs]

0:00

[tigerboy1966]

the b side, was actually better, but this song was so important

[Weller274]

One of the best Jam songs! Absoloutly great!

[piers60]

OK lah

[bladosc444]

Klasa w sobie

[NationalistFuture]

Underground the best place to be in modern britain lol

[jon221998]

1:53 Priceless!!

[NewRomanticx]

Damn, I was born in 92, I wish I was born in the late 60s like my mum and dad were, then I'd have gotten the chance to be a teenager in the 80s :( I love the 80s! The fashion and the music is just better than today's!!!!! Especially the mods and new romantics :)

[olliethemod28]

songs like this make todays musicians like rihanna or lady gaga seem like karaoke. i mean there are still great bands today like kasabian but nothing really compares to bands like the jam, the who or the specials.

[MultiDimwit]

i want to have paul weller's haircut, what is it called?

[Hannah1DxBanana]

Hi, I'm a 14 year old girl who likes this song... Joking! I don't think I'm special, The Jam are just a good band..

[bjorn2run]

@Hannah1DxBanana Wise beyond your years :-)

[robcoish]

wow made me cry thinkin back to wnen i bought this, march 1980

[ncbfThePrince]

emotions burst out on youtube videos , ITS NOT NECESSARY aight?

[magusperde1]

I love modern music but does modern music "speak" to youth like this spoke to people of Paul Wellers generation?

[Shaunysmum]

@HelloShabba, good for you girlie, my little boy is 4 and this is one his favourite songs, i put a video on here of him singing green day lol, but you cant beat weller, seen him loads, and he always sings Jam numbers in his concerts, I dont think your weird for liking this music, i think your cool :)

[empano1]

Zeberdee 1980-2004

[Earzz124]

@empano1 Zeberfuckindee - 'The Human Dartboard'

[empano1]

@Earzz124 hahaha yeah :)

[HelloShabba]

Hello, I'm Ellie, a thirteen year old girl and I just found this song. I really really love it. I'm proof that there's a small handful of people that like to stick to the old good music instead of the overedited crap in the hits. People Think I'm weird for liking this music but to be honest I feel like I'm the only one who actually makes sense. Thanks :D

[driffter1976]

@HelloShabba You're not special. Fuck off.

[mikez2605]

@driffter1976 my thoughts exactly

[kocrock]

@driffter1976 everyone is special-even you fuckface

[mrbassman25]

@HelloShabba

you and 100 million others !! nothings changed at all.... ur not wierd or special... think of the pop mainstream shit that was around in the 70's 80's... there was just as much as we have today.... this music was for the minority in those days and still is today.... and yip... always will be!

[JaakkoSkates]

@HelloShabba Whoopty fuckin' do, you want a cookie?

[logicalChris]

I disliked this because it gave me Diabetes

[KillerDons1]

one of the best songs ever....i wish it was for my generation

[N64ryan]

who the fuck disliked this ? 

[dizzyfergy]

16 years old when i first heard this and probably the best song i have ever heard , still does it for me after 30 years !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ruberick28]

gotta have this played at my funeral!!

[katiewestbrook]

get a life boys this is proper live english talent

[hommerzero]

I can hear this song a million times and never get tired of this band!



[mm988]

Tommy Johnson now follows rugby ... Bollocks



[simmmm23]

thats the same guitar john lennon used for a lot of his career the rickenbacker 325, beautiful instrument! i love the jam!

[redsull123]

When did Britain get fucked up?

[ballhawk387]

The dislikes may have to do with the (unintentionally?) ironically placed right-wing political ad that preceded it. WTF???

[Dedory93]

Brings me way back !

[fir3f0x09]

I want this played at my funeral XD

[east9915]

@fir3f0x09 I Thought i was the only one who thought and said this . Ive said it for years ! What a tune !!!!!!

[fir3f0x09]

@east9915 I Strongly Agree With You

[fkndavejr]

@fir3f0x09 Hell yeah. Nice!

[AsboJunior]

Thumbs up if london underground diddnt bring you here

[Xalimata]

@AsboJunior

ah yes for we a hipsters who need to know we like things for the right reasons.

[hectormurray28]

2:02 where did the rest of his drum kit go? lol

[cbak12sg]

First single to enter the UK charts at no 1 since Slade's Merry Xmas Everybody in 1973. I just wish Weller didn't pronounce "nuclear" the same way as Dubbyer.

[LastOfOne]

HOW has this song received ANY dislikes? Do those people not like goodness? Were they wearing ear muffs and therefore the beat of this song did not infect their brain and cause them to burst out in spontanious dancing? Did a moment of BLINDNESS overcome them and they accidently pushed dislike instead of like?

Okay, perhaps I'm overstretching this a bit.

Anyways, was anyone else lead here by Ben Yahtzee's game review? I only ask because it seems unlikely.But I am happy he did lead me here.

[robsterlobster01]

@LastOfOne Which review was it?

[qooq88]

seen the jam many a time weller, foxton, buckler, the best group of a generation, absolutely superb

[kasperjames]

its the perfect time. lol



[hisroyalstigness]

So Good, I wish I was born in the 70's, but I feel I was born in 1995 to fight tyranny of Justin Bieber and George Bush

[lopajs342]

I am actually proud to british because of these :D

13 and a girl these are unreal so is paul weller by himself tho ;)

[lopajs342]

I am actually proud to british because of these :D

[DEAgger93]

I too am shouting for tomorrow.

[barely0245]

how the fuck has this not even hit 1 million views when shitty Justin beiber song's reach millions of views?

[barely0245]

i wish i was about in this era im 21 and love the jam, clash and that, shame music isn't the same nowadays.
