Yes!!!! I saw this ages ago on a vhs recording of MTV's 120 minutes that my host brother had when I was an exchange student in Hungary in the early 90s. Loved it, but I couldn't remember the group's name. I think I've googled it almost once a year since the advent of google but couldn't ever find out who sang it. Reading about the government collapse in Romania today made me start humming/looking for it immediately, and here it is. Thanks for posting!
I love to track down obscure Cathal references.What's he getting at with 'Call yourself King Charles the Third'? Is that the number the current Charles would be if the Queen ever died? Or another delusion of the Genius of the Carpathians? All wannabe songwriters:listen to Cathal Coughlan and give it up.No one else comes close.This song was on an endless loop in my brain and house during the Bush/Cheney years.Ciao you motherfuckers.GOODBYE!! 'The untenable must be maintained' Oh yes..oh yes
TIME TO FUGGIN PLAY THIS FOR BASHAR AL-ASSAD!!

20 years later and it's still one of the angriest songs I've ever heard, and as the old saying goes "The more things change..."
