it was a two fingered salute to the national front and your right we had fuck all in the early 80s in brum ...but you know what we took nothing from anybody
lol its about life in brum in the 70s we had fck all yet it did not matter. We are so materialistic these days , oh for a return. Black white asian yellow did not matter on our council estate roll on the Firs.
I just finished a remake of "Dream a lie" would love to send to the guys in UB40, how? The Hypocrite Orchestra - reggae/afrobeat pop world fusion, from El Paso, Tx records tribute to the sound created by UB40 check out their remake of "Dream a lie" .......That's up to Ali, Astro and the rest of the UB40 crew!!!
Some people may take offense to the black faces, but at the same time the black members wore WHITE face just to prove they are all brothers without regards to color or race.....
@Callymasta i couldn't agree with you more, and if anyone doesn't like what we think, fuck them, they are racist bastard who need to get a life, we are all human at the end of the day
UB 40 are the best band that ever lived, when the chips was down and believe me young boys and girls they were back in the early 80s UB got inside your head and made you think of life !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@danjay49 Great insight. I am with you on that. I cant even remember if I ever got to see them finish a set. I got arrested every time. Glasgow was a cold, unforgiving, place back then with a very cruel breed of pfkpig. That how it is I guess.
@Slimboyfat1979 the BNP are arseholes, UB40 are a multicultural group, there nothing against it, i am a big fan of UB40 and i think they are brilliant at what they do, its just a shame the original lead singer ali campbell left
@Andyhinds That's really selling them short. They had some fantastic albums after the first Labor of Love. I'd say Rat In The Kitchen was the their last really good album before they became super watered down and bland. UB40 was an ok album.. It's pretty much when Ali dropped the guitar and started ONLY singing did they became kinda banal and insipid..
Its good to see how honest people are in this video as well. Its nice to share and show we all care for each other in any way or term.

We should all live together share and be polite no matter what background, race, religion we are from. Just be grateful we all have a life.

What went wrong with this band? They were great around this time but from 1983 were reduced to a career of bland cover versions of old songs.
