Allways loved SLF. Saw them in Reading when a kid, shat my pants. This song now feels like an antidote to the emotional ubiquity around the army now. Kids losing their limbs in Afghanistan for what?. Lets not all salute the flag when cunts in power are telling us to. Peace.
@ellenmeilee what a twat you are as theres no comparison to the afghan war to the irish struggle of the '70s and i should know i was there and lived it!!! Peace
Well done mate. You have failed to understand both my comment and the song. May I suggest you go and join a JLS discussion rather than an SLF one. Cheers.
yeah the mono on this kinda takes away from a great song. Comparing these guys to green day is like saying good charlotte taught joe strummer everything he knows
@SoothsayerYT do know what the fuck you are talking about just look at the year of the video you fool these guys were punk rock before green day even knew what punk rock was so check your self
Green Day = Pop punk rock - From 1989 Green Day used to play just pointless punk rock until they realised that they aren't part of that sort of generation anymore.
Stiff Little Fingers = Punk Rock from the 70's
I study music and Green Day is one of my favourite bands! (Seen them twice in 1 year) and I take it as a pretty big insult that you say Green Day was ripped off by these guys - Apart from the fact that it doesn't even make any sense
so them in 1981 i had this single at the time played it before i went too the gig in the edinburgh playhouse it was the first song of the set what a band still the best ever gig for enterainment and energy and ive seen a few bands since not all punk the stones, lou reed, iron maiden, garymoore, jahwobble david byrne, u2 ,but still the one stuck in the memory is slf
Fuck you, go listen to your Green Day and beat off. This is one of the best bands to come out of the 70's, and still touring, and still drawing loyal fans. Derivative? When you have a clue, then make a point, else, shut the fuck up wanker.
@welcome2myhell if u think that this band is 'mediocre' then get the fuck of this page, the reason that they never made it really big is because they didn't have some really big money throwing record company behind them - that was because their humble beginnings meant that they didn't have enough money to be noticed by any of said companys.
@somonelse666 Well, let's be fair. SLF had their great days AND their mediocre days regardless of record company interest. I know Jake Burns thinks "Now Then" was their finest hour but that's when I started to lose interest. Their first three albums are fucking brilliant and "Hanx" is a great live document. Flags & Emblems was a true return to form. But without Cluney in the band, they seemed to lose their punch. No disrespect, mind you, they're still a good band.
You know it's loud as f*ck, because they are all using SM57's for vocal mics. Imagine standing right up front… those lads and lass' must have been deaf for a few days after.
And it was probably so easily worth the pain, and so much more.
LIKE THE FINGERS KNEW WAY BACK THEN -REPUBLICANS AND LOYALISTS ARE BEING PLAYED LIKE FLUTES BY THE ELITE BANKERS, WAR MONGERERS, CORRUPT POLITICIANS AND SLEEZY OIL MERCHANTS WHO ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO ALWAYS PROFIT FROM THE MURDER AND MISERY OF THE MASSES.ITS TIME FOR US ALL TO WAKE UP AND STOP THE ROT OF HUMANITY- TAKE THE POWER BACK FOR THE GOOD OF ALL PEOPLE.

Me & 3000 other mad scottish punks were wowed again for the 20th year in a row at the Glasgow Barrowlands, doubt greenday will still be rockin it in 34 years time!! Still gigin, still recording, still burning!!!!! Fuckin outstandin
You're spot on 1936Sabate. My niece, being of a certain age, was all 'Greenday are it man' at family party a few years ago. After failing to explain, my sister just played her some SLF. My niece got it straight away. The DKMs got it too: they acknowledge The Clash, SLF, and The Pogues. But fuck, I'd almost forgotten the Upstarts and I'm fron Tyneside. Who killed Liddle? We all know...
Green Day are just 2nd rate Descendents clones. A derivative of a derivative of a derivative and with a quality that reflects that. SLF along with the Upstarts are often the forgotten bands of the 70/80's British punk scene. Both were intelligent and talented and always seem to get ignored for glorified caberet acts like the Pistols.
best band ever .noother band could touch them in their day ....and they seem to sound as good today ...need tofind out when they next play in glasgow would love to see them ...missed their farewell tour in glasgow :( long live SLF
Skakkys just offered to suck my enormous penis if I say Greenday are better, NO TY biotch, they still suck EMO kid, go away and jack off to all the small things
Man you people are dickheads when you say greenday is shit you are giving him publicity like how no one new who justin bieber was when i first heard about him and then so many people hated him a few people liked him and then he became famous you fucking dickheads by insulting things you hate your helping them
Green Day are a fucking great band, anyway i never expected to come on a SLF video and see folk pointlessly arguing about Green Day. anyway main point SLF are a fucking great band, Tin Soldier is a fucking great song, have a fucking great day. peace
I minded with song, meant for its time, to think of all the youngsters throughout the world that are conned into fighting for causes that politicians and tribal leaders seem to think are important.
@motormadhead13 you sit your sad ass down, ive brought a doctor in to Remove that Mole from your Shoulders, OOPs its your head, for a minute I thought it was Lemmy`s Mole, I bet you were lead singer in Girlschoool!
class song ...class band .... please check out my slower , quieter acoustic cover of this song .... feel free to leave a comment aswell , good or bad .... cheers
I find Greenday was a gateway band who brung the younger people to look back and find the stiff little fingers and all the other Original UK Punk rock bands of the late 70's early 80's from their lifting of some song formations and licks you do hear in early Green day albums before they went to a larger label. My sister knew them from the shop she's worked in here in san francisco and i knew them breifly...
Who gives rough fuck about Greenday-this clip is all about SLF. This is a truly great band and for those who followed their path across the years, could never be compared with anyone else. A sound that was linked to their Northern Irish origins and the politics of the time. Love it.
@cattycakes64 yes, and they will be the best band for the goodwilling people: allaround the world, till the end of time! they're truly freedom fighters.
@woodyfurball who gives a shit what some record company wanna call it-emo-punk-metal-etc etc etc,if you get caught in that trap you might miss out on a good band cause someone labelled them wrong.what would you call the ramones for eg.?
@sidsings000 in the given context emo only came into existence in about 2000. emo was only thought of as additional genre label to some punk bands, not a seperate genre. ergo being emo wouldn't have stopped you being punk at te same time. which means that either green day were both or they were punk, thus proving me right and the original comment wrong
I know what you mean, Im only 17 and i prefer these guys to pretty every other modern punk bands, this is real punk music, these guys, GBH and the Ramones are some of the greats of Punk. Got properly into punk doing my work experience. Painted a house in the middle of the country side for a week, listening to non stop punk music... God that was AMAZING
greenday suck - more like brownday! SLF top band - so much energy around that time so hard to describe to kids today what it was really like! punk changed my life......etc etc
yo jheq you have no idea wtf ur talkin about sit back down. green days a bunch of copys that try to sound british with billies faggot ass twang. they're beating dead fucking horse called punk. mother fuckers from america talk like one. they would never had had success without bands like slf, damned, and pistols. stfu go buy they're new album; it sucks sloppy floppy donkey dick
Greenday are EMO? My sincere apologies go out to them on there cover of a REAL punk bands song by the Skids " The saints are coming" unlucky boys, maybe take up netball? cause you aint Punk!
greenday are whiney, tie-wearing parasites of the music industry that tried to capitalise on the war in Iraq and hurricane victims. they (and U2) can go choke on a dick...
@jheq555 stiff little fingers are real punk and a million times better than green day and how can u even think about calling stiff little fingers a sex pistols rip off and come to think of it if you dislike stiff little fingers why did you bother to watch it and then comment on it
@jheq555 What the fuck is wrong with you you silly fucking bastard?! Are you unable to hear good music when you hear it?! Saying a new aged band like greenday is better than SLF?!?! Thats like saying Fallout boy is better than Jethro Tull (theyre definetly not) or that All american rejects are better than the clash (and they are not!). Greenday the real deal my ass! Im from the same generation as you and i think 90% of greenday sucks ass, and this doesn't! Get off of youtube you dumb 12yo
Tin soldiers You sign away your name No chance for cash or fame You never see the truth You sign away your youth You go and join the queue Do what they want you to They take away your name They treat you all the same Sign away you life Great song and lyrics that mean something

I know what you mean, Im only 17 and i prefer these guys to pretty every other modern punk bands, this is real punk music, these guys, GBH and the Ramones are some of the greats of Punk. Got properly into punk doing my work experience. Painted a house in the middle of the country side for a week, listening to non stop punk music... God that was AMAZING

greenday are whiney, tie-wearing parasites of the music industry that tried to capitalise on the war in Iraq and hurricane victims. they (and U2) can go choke on a dick...

@jheq555 What the fuck is wrong with you you silly fucking bastard?! Are you unable to hear good music when you hear it?! Saying a new aged band like greenday is better than SLF?!?! Thats like saying Fallout boy is better than Jethro Tull (theyre definetly not) or that All american rejects are better than the clash (and they are not!). Greenday the real deal my ass! Im from the same generation as you and i think 90% of greenday sucks ass, and this doesn't! Get off of youtube you dumb 12yo

Yea I've got the MMB version & Stiffs do a good version of The Specials 'Doesn't Make It Alright', that makes them a Ska band as well.
