  • Honestly, THUMBS UP if you're sick and tired of reading SHIT like what the DICKHEAD @loopmaster1 below me wrote. And he did it twice! The fucking dickhead ..... It makes me realize that while our ancestors were writing poetry, his ancestors were still swinging from the trees. Somebody steal his fucking laptop. DICKHEAD!

  • @chillimansarmy I used to get angry about monkeys flinging poop like @loopmaster1... but then I took an arrow to the knee. Now I sit in the kitchen and make sandwiches...

  • @misterjonesin Occupy my anus you'll get more than from Wall Street!

  • @misterjonesin - absolutely, and every town in the nation. Occupy the big town where you live too.

  • i love this , i used to listen to at 91x sandiego

    by the way can you share this ?

    jaibobro at hotmail thanks

  • This file is downloadable as an mp4 here. if you can't find it just copy the URL into ZAMZAR(dot)com and it will create you a file in any format you desire. Thanks for watching. X is truly greatness.

  • @gothicsakura82 FUCK YEAH 91x

  • @gothicsakura82 91X rocked my world through the entire 80's!

  • Just put a big picture of Barack Obama up instead of the lame graphics and listen to the song again....fuck health care... its the economy stupid.

  • Isn't health care a part of the economy, if not in part fully responsible for much of the economic depression we see now?

    Do you kind of see how it all connects?

    No?

    I've always seen this song as a sort of modern day American fife-and-drum recall.

  • Uh. Dude,The economy suffers because of scumbag "investment" bankers who need to be jailed and the rising cost of services, chief among them health ins. costs which grow at over 3x the rate of inflation. It was better before, before we voted for Reagan. But it's not just the president. Social Justice comes from the ground up. Bands write songs that make us think & over times things change because we want them to. Conservatives & Liberals both love X. We can agree: US poverty is stems from GREED.

  • For the information of all listening... I took some time remastering the audio to sound good on YouTube. I think it's nice and full. This is definitely one to share for the Audio. - c

  • where the hell is the original video?

  • Was there an official one for this song? I'd love to see it!

  • @Corporations8MyBaby Yes it's here but synced w/a demo of this song that doesn't have the guitar solo.

  • Mobile Alabama bitches!!!!! I just saw them in concert in ATL, I grew up in Mobile, so its great to hear that place mentined. I got pics with the band to, (such a huge fan)

  • Comment removed

  • I mourn for "Johnny hit and run Pauline" and" I must not think bad thoughts." Two more videos pulled because somebody needs the royalties to pay for their heroin habit.

    At this rate the only thing left on youtube will be Hannah Montana and that monkey that pees in it's own mouth.

  • I hear ya. Post em on another account. Title Them JHRP and IMNTBT. and share them with friends. Put "please support this band" all over the video with links to their site. They don't support themselves on CD sales, they do a robust business in licensing and selling wearables. Their record companies make most of the music money. Send money directly to X when you listen. Send em $10 a year for listening to their music for "free". Or put that in the video. We have to keep spreading their sound.

  • MMmmmm, beer at the Whiskey.

  • Good lord. It's X. Socialism? Communism? How about the simple pleasure of pimping beer from a liquor store and getting into the Whiskey with a chalked driver's license just to stomp to their music? Truly, at that point in my life I wasn't there so much to argue the finer points of politics. Rather, I came to bathe in the raw sound and be swept away with the possibilities that the music engendered. Many thanks for the video.

  • I Seen these Guys in concert in Salt Lake City, Ut. 1984, I almost died this night, the friend that drove us crossed a rail X crossing & didnt see the FUCKING TRAIN!!!, Anyway I Love All People! Black, Latinos, Ect. Just NO REDNECKS...FUCK OFF!!!!!!!!!

  • I believe the original cry in the hollyweird clubs back in the day was "Nazi Punks Fuck Off! - lol - Sigh. Sorry bout the train, but music was pretty excitin' in '84

  • Actually, 'Nazi Punks Fuck Off" was the cry in the bay area clubs-it was a Dead Kennedys song. And...it was long before '84. By then those of us in the "Hollyweird" clubs had left then in the hands of the Nazi Punks, Oi Boys and Skinheads.

  • I stand corrected. Weird that the official music industry didn't "embrace" punk until after "Teen Spirit". It was then bands like The Offspring had a chance. I'm not sure what happened in the 90s was punk. Punk flavored maybe. L.A., NY, London... magic places between '76-80... judging by all the documentaries available now. No one realizes just how historic an art or music scene is going to be at the time. I'm so grateful for X.

  • i just wish the pop punk thing wold go away really, this is a pretty good song, but bands like greenday, blink 182, good charlott should fuck off

  • well this was a nostalgic trip, i remembering listening this as a child with my dad in the car. Thanks a lot for posting video,

  • That's way cool. You are so welcome!

  • I'm so glad the Reagan Mythology of "giving everything to the rich so that it will trickle down" is dying as an ideology. X kept that flame alive for many of us.

  • boy does this bring back early 80's drug memories

  • X kicks ass. This video sucks ass. And all you ass licking Socialists are perfect asses.

  • LOL! No one seems to know what "socialist" means anymore-I'm sure I'm 1 by your definition. Before Reagan, we were more like Denmark and Sweden, arguably the most successful societies in human history, now we are far less like them. I have faith that this nation, at least the educated among us(those who can define socialism rite)are awake again. We now know that the poor & mentally ill don't have to sleep in the streets so we can drive nice cars. We can have a good life & still care 4 the meek.

  • Only idiots don't know what Socialism is. What are you? 12? X kicks ass, and their music will be more relevant than even under the Godbama administration.

  • Actually, in my work blogging I find quite a few who think socialism & communism are the same thing, and they are not 12. I'm glad you are not an idiot and understand that socialism is a form of governing that merges private & public collective ownership of large industry so as to benefit the citizenry first. Communism allows no private ownership. This is critical in understanding X's reaction to Reaganism in the 80s & it's drive to total privatization & the dangers of Fascist/Corporatism.

  • I thought a lot people are just scared socialism will lead to communism. It does seem similar except the people will have the power i guess not the government or person.

    And Corporations8MyBaby do you think you can explain to me why socialism is so good if you have the time. Like how it will work as well. Wouldn't the whole would have to be under a Socialism form of government for it to work. I'm only 16 and not an expert on this stuff. Just interested.

  • I mourn for the state of education in our times. Things are gonna get much better because we'll all get back our "necessities and more" - and you probably won't say "thank you"... you'll think it was your own boot straps.

  • ^ [ When Exene was writing poetry, and when she & John were writing lyrics, a basic high school education was a lot better than it is today. People get on the internet & start reading all kinds of twisted stuff. They actually mean well. They just don't know the basics.] Thanks for the comment BLKSUN

  • this song is a timeless and thoughtful message.

  • Welcome and thanks for watching.

  • Um, okay, the song wasn't really about the New Deal. "The New World" refers more to the original experiment of America, how it was supposed to be this attempt to put these very theoretical ideas of democracy into practice. I've always taken this song to be about how America has fallen short of the original ideals it was founded on.

    Pulling a "New Deal" meaning out of this is a bit of a stretch.

  • If you listen to the lyrics on the rest of this album they use a lot of 1930s and 40s images. These songs mention "The Grapes Of Wrath" in a few instances. This was not about the revolutionary war, they saw a new "great depression" coming under Reagan and wrote about it.

  • America was not "an attempt to put ideals of democracy into practice." If that was true, then America would have split from GB much sooner than they did. In actuality, no one gave a shit about democracy until it became an excuse to not pay taxes. Another thing, if our infallible ancestors cared so much about democracy, how the fuck did we go until the 1960s before we even gave black people their right? And we still deny rights to gay people. People care about their own wellbeing, not democracy

  • I guess you read that phrase too fast. Think about the words "attempt" & "ideal",instead of "democracy". We struggle to form a more perfect union yet are a long way from Utopia to be sure. When this song came out, we were taking huge steps BACKWARDS as a nation.Sure Nixon was a criminal, but our society rejected him. The Reagan revolution was about ERASING gains for Gays, non-whites, the poor&middle classes. This song is a wake up call: We're losing the small gains we'd fought for! TheNew World!

  • question....how do you expect a ustopia with a socialist or marxcist controll -forced controll of the people? so if i read you correctly -your saying that gov controll of evryones property to 'empower' the poor is the solution...and special rights for perversion is "gain" ? wow....i am speachless...what a utopia!

  • is democracy THE PEOPLE HAVING A SAY IN WHAT ARE GOVERNMENT DOES so yeah the majority do not want to give gays rights..... how is that not still democracy and im not agianst gay people if i was old enough to voted to give all of them equal rights marriage whatever im just saying the majority of the PEOPLE VOTED AGIASNT IT and thats what democracy is all about right the people haivng a say

  • jc4jcjcjc20jc, I respect how you use your mind. That's a logical point. Jefferson wanted our system to be a republic first, but a republic that was governed by democracy. The majority wanted to preserve SLAVERY too, but our system obeys the constitution first - the people cannot vote to remove rights. Soon the GLBT community will be vindicated. It is the American way. We are subject to the words of our founders.We are free.We have unalienable rights. X reminds us to share freedom even w/the poor

  • But by denying blacks the right to vote for so long, we did NOT let "the people have a say," making it not a democracy in actuality.

  • Anyone got the video for this song? There was one, but never seen it on here.

  • No this wasn't a song that Electra felt was "an AM hit" or whatever those douchebags were "thinking" when they picked the 1 or 2 songs to promote. X got very little promotion "love" compared to the other acts on their label at the time.. most now forgotten. The few official X videos are pretty great - but the early footage is really mind-blowing.

  • It's my favorite X song, and it's one of the few that had an official video. Though so far it's never turned up here. Then again, not many people ever saw it back when.

  • outtasight

  • agreed!

  • ....and NO i wasnt tryin to kiss ass just to post video responses. MORE people should hear this band. I really love this. Thank you.

  • you are SO welcome Stacyblue!

  • Regan stopped the cold war blah blah whine whine ....i cant even spell the bastards name.

    CAPITALISTS will pay! ....or whatever the hell they are. Nazi minded fruits. LOVE this band and this song and it brings out somethin in me that makes me want to get up and DO something.....unlike most of the people on YT who just sit and never think about these kinda things. THANK you for posting. xx

  • whoa...just a minute... whats that crtap about reagan? are you serious? reagan stopped the'cold war" and validated much of what "they" had fought for as u put it...and i would add that he had wide support from rep's AND DEMOCRATS with a democrat run congress! the new deal was a 'raw deal' on the us people.... socialist ,at best which is why we have money problems..can u say irs,can u say ssi can u say incom tax!...look, you really need to get your facts is all im saying

  • Better not let Exene hear u talkin like that. If I was as misinformed as you, I'd agree. I can tell your heart is in the right place- but if you look a little deeper you'll see what reagan's administration did to us. The real "socialism" is coming from post-reagan Corporate Welfare. They are giving our tax dollars to "bail out" billionares.. and letting people lose their houses. That's the worst kind of "socialism". Social Security is civilized. Their economic royalism is barbaric.

  • well exene is exene...that doesnt change facts. its not socialism so much as it is 'facism' ,i think thats what your getting at. reagan did a lot of good acyually . he even ordere an audit on where the income tax money we paid was going to. the survey or study done ,showed that over 90 % of income tax we pay goes to pay the fed reserve bank. the people who are loosing thier homes should have done thier homework and noyt overloaded themselves.

  • I agree with you on the tax changes he wanted to make. Did you notice he got shot right when he was getting into that... and stopped all of his activity on that front? Probably just a coincidence. ;-) - But Fascism is when corporations run the government... we also practice corporate socialism. We socialize the risks of business but privatize the rewards. Greedy scum find amazing new ways to screw us. The Reagan deregulation sucked! All of "More fun in the new world" has many New Deal lyrics.

  • Oh and no one thinks "Reagan ended the cold war" anymore. That's just fox news propaganda for people who won't look it up.

  • fox news ? im not quoting fox news or msnbc for that matter. just the facts here. reagan was /is a good president. roosevelt really screwed the us with is socialist bs programs..but it really started all snowballing with pres. wilson.. that guy was a traitor DELUXE! did you know that there is not a law that says we /u.s. citizens...have to pay income tax? thats a fact. theirs and the fed reserve are the new world order incarnate.

  • Ah. Hi Ron Paul Fan. Ok... no debating with you. You see things through a special set of specs. Just know that X was interested in the New Deal, the Great depression and how homelessness increased in L.A. under Reagan. They felt "trickle down" was "alms for the poor" - I heard Exene rant back then, and I agreed with her then as I do now. These corporatists are letting the salt of the earth suffer and die. This was supposed to be the new world.

  • i do NOT like ron paul!i know bz-i dont think he would agree although i think excene would,maybe john as well.but most people who 'like' the new deal..dont know what the'new deal' was.example..fanny may -the gov. entity responsible for the current economic meltdown -created by the new deal. of course u agreed with excene..i used to agree with lennon and trotsky- but then when i became informed enuff to know that if you kill the cow..you wont have any milk!

  • one more thing.... you and every dem i know love to blame reagan..it was carter who left the mess for reagan-or did you like getting a loan at 21% and paying VERY high gas prices..if you could find gas! yeah..carter. & what do dems do whwn they want to get elected? blame the reps..sure!i was always taught by my folks to look at the issue and candidates objectively and my father and i were union. but it was carter.NOT reagan who fucked up!

  • prove it. You can't- because that's a fantasy. Reagan was the living push back to FDR buy those who would rule us via their money and power. Facts are facts. Your fantasies, no matter how much sean hannity shouts them, are not reality. Reagan's legacy is in the financial melt down. Greed kills. I hope we get our new world now.

  • p.s. this is still a great song! as far as the demise of detroit...it was high taxes and liberal gov that screwed that city into the grave!

  • yes, and unions enabling Japanese to flood market with cheap cars. Unions serve a valuable purpose but the combination of what you said and the unions sunk Detroit and as Detroit goes, so goes the country. And I agree with your Carter assessment. A disaster. Had a golden opportunity after Nixon/Ford, with the country ready for real "change" if you pardon the use of that word and he was a disaster in 4 short years domestically and with foreign policy.

  • That's it. Blame the unions. Americans. Using a democratic tool of organizing to stand up to corporations (aka modern kingdoms). Fox news pushes that organized labor is harming "the nation"... it only harms their greed. What is sad is that you fall for that message. You shout for King George and Against 1776... and you don't even know it.

  • Organizing is the greatest power the people have. We couldnt have ended segregation & Jim Crow had the meekest,poorest persons not organized& stood their ground. The difference is thatToday Fox News nearly says that civil rights activists were radicals 2 blame. GM didn't like having to pay decent wages, so they helped create a corporate media 2lie2 all of us, & in govt. to undo the fairness of our society & keep their $ power.*GM will break the US economy to get their way. UNIONS R DEMOCRACY.

  • this is a great tune , i wore this vynl out when i bought it back in the day. billy zoom -what a guy !

  • Ha! I love this song. I first heard it on your myspace account. I wish it were available on project playlist.

  • Wow hav'nt heard this in a while

  • lol - that's cuz u haven't clicked on my homepage (myspace) in a while... we're too busy posting our bulletins!
