  • OSWALD IS INNOCENT!!

  • Best song on that album. Can t believe it was not a single

  • Still the best band everrrrrr & its never gunna change!!!

  • why people still talk about riche james its been 15 years get over it.

  • cus hes a legend

  • the power output of this band is amazing!their gods to me :D

  • sounds like Europe, doesn't it?

  • Best performance of this song by far - better than the album version. JDB sounds amazing.

  • This is one of my favorate songs on the new album

    which in my opinion is the best one since (everything must go, in other words "it;s very fuckin good. James Dean is a god!

  • The manics are a bit hit and miss at the moment.The songs are either solid gold or total garbage.

    I do love underdogs and this song rocks too.....i might even go see them live again soon.Last time i saw them was in december 98.

  • what is a patsy?

  • A Patsy is like the fall guy, or a sucker. The Manics wrote the song based on Lee Harvey Oswald and wanted to use the sound bite of him saying 'i'm just a patsy' but they weren't allowed and James had to record it instead!

  • errr... they do use a sound bite on the album.

  • Yes they do. All I was saying is that they wanted to use the sound bite of LHO but they weren't permitted so James had to use his voice instead.

  • radio recording with mobile phone footage...decent

  • is this an american band or uk? ive never heard of them i was just seeing if this song was about lee h oswald

  • UK band, specifically from Wales. It is a song about individual or people taking the fall so that the public won't see the big picture of an event i.e Lee Oswald, Tony Montana etc...At least that is my interpretation.

  • @pat442389

    It's a Welsh band, but yes, the song is about Oswald's assassination of Kennedy.

  • Cały ostatni album MSP jest fantastyczny!

  • I can't stand to see them without Richey.

  • I know, it felt like I'm betraying Richey if I like MSP without him.

    But when you think about it, their new songs is really good aswell. Not nearly as good as the holy bible-era, och any songs written by Richey, but still better than most bands of the 21st century.

  • You really want to start a meaningless youtube-fight don't you? :)

    Well, you're gonna have to be more specifik on why he was such a fucking idiot before I can start proving you the opposite.

  • This is a brillaint performanc eof this song. The manics are on such great form atm. LOVE THE NEW ALBUM!

    See ya at Fflam boys!

  • this is a terrible song from a poor album, life blood and know your enemy were much better, this sounds like a 100 other songs

  • WTF, THE MANICS ARE AMAZING!!

    This is true rock n roll, his voice is perfect for their music, this is the best album out atm alongside Dream Theaters new release, i haven't stopped listening to it since it came out, Pure Genius!

  • no this is bland for pure rock n roll from the manics try the convalescent from kye or faster or sleepflower

  • funny that, i've never heard of neither, they must be great....

  • i never heard a band that wrote songs with the term patsy in.

  • omg this is AMAZING!! I thought Winger was the best band ever, but mover over Kip Winger, there's a new sheriff in town! I haven't heard jams like this since REO Speedwagon!

  • Awesome

  • the two new songs ive heard sound a lot better than the last album, i know its vain to hope for another EMG or HB but this stuff sounds relatively good. Anyone off to V this year?

  • Album version is much better then this one

  • Great Video, what CD is this on? Thanks for adding!

  • Its on the forthcoming album "Send Away The Tigers" out in May...ive got 9 of the 10 songs from it...and must say "It fucking rocks"! :)

  • I got 6 of them! I WANT THEM ALL NOW!

  • i demand the album

  • fab song! can't wait to hear the album version

  • I've heard the album version - you won't be disappointed ;)

  • "I've heard the album version - you won't be disappointed "

    how and where?

  • Do you have the album????

  • great sound quality for an audience recording! Have you perhaps put the radio recording over the video? Whatever, great job!

  • Well spotted. A good friend of mine put the radio recording over my footage. Having said that the audio I recorded was still pretty good!

  • hehe, sounds great. i love the fact that the ROCK is clearly nailed well into the manics hearts

  • This bloody rocks. Can't wait for the new tour in May!!!

  • I like this. Anyone off to see them on tour in may?

    I have tickets to see them in Cardiff on the 11th.

  • There aint nothing wrong with that :-) everytime I here something new from the manics now I don't expect much, just average songs that I pretend to be better than they are just so I can kid my self on they are still good.... I so want to believe they are still good and with this song I don't to have to lie to myself anymore....This is good! On my 3rd listen while I am writing this and I love it... Cheese, 80s, 70s doesn't bother me...Its still ROCK!!!!

  • They've lost it completely...this is just terrible...feels like if they were covering Poison or something worse...pure rubbish

  • Well I think it's good, sounds very Gold Against The Soul, but let's face it, they're never going to produce anything as amazing as the first three albums.

  • and i thought i was the only remaining manics fan from burnley, good on you mate!

  • There's a few of us y'know! We should form a Burnley branch for the Manics fun club lol.

  • I like it, they'll never better their old stuff but this is really good.

  • love it, really catchy

  • mmm nice

  • This is truely magnificent. Seans drumming sounds so cool. I'm happy they took an extra guitarist with them again.

  • hmmm, this sounds like mid-80s or even worse, mid-70's american fm rock cheese!!! how many attempts since 1994' 'the holy bible' can a band have who keep getting it wrong??? oh, while we're at it, Nicky Wire's solo cd is pish btw.
