  • Holy crap, this video is live again. It was pulled for a couple years after a WMG complaint. I wonder what changed.

  • I liked this band a lot and saw them play with Swervedriver a long time ago. Both really great bands.

  • i totally fuckin agree with that dude down there. the bass is just as important if not more than the guitar. and this is an amazing song and very refreshing to hear.

  • Great 90's Brit pop tune....I remember when this song was popular

  • Wow, brings me back to the glory days of WDRE in NYC before that station turned to shit.....great old alternative station that played this song all the time.

  • we love the neds when they making there come back tour

  • i love this song and this band.....2 bass players was such a great idea!

  • Yeah. You don't see many of those. I hate the bands that hide the bass in their music. I play the bass, and I get pretty mad about it sometimes. A lot of kids my age say that guitar is better than the bass. I have to disagree. The bass can just as awesome, or even better.

  • wow... what a great song!

  • My favorite band growing up. They opened for Jesus Jones in '91 - my first concert when i was 14. What great memories.

  • Same here mate,oh what a band so easily forgotten by many.This tune stirs my spirit like Oasis never could.Take from that what you will.Peace.

  • they look like they sound. I'm begining to look back at the 90's the way I looked at the 70's in the 90's- lol. Great album though, even though alot of the songs sound pretty much alike.

  • They look like aussies in this vid.

  • i think they are from UK

  • They are. Stourbridge, to be exact.

  • This was a great album true. I saw them live once and unfortunately it was one of the worst concerts I ever saw. The sound was terrible, just way too loud without being able to hear the instruments....just a mass wall of sound. Still love this album though.

  • Thats what having two bass players does for you! Saw them at the Manchester Academy years ago, most violent gig I ever attended. I've been moshed up at rock and metal gigs for years, always a friendly crowd to help you out. Neds was full of 'hardcore' tosspots at the front spoiling for a fight. Ruined what would've been a great gig.

  • love the song...but it's a bit obvious the video director REALLY likes silhouettes of hair flying around

  • Yeah, I have to agree. GREAT song, weak video. Ah well.

  • agreed, but no dog kicking.

  • For me, God Fodder was the best thing they did. Every song was great. They managed to mix a lot of styles of music and form one cool band. When you cant think of too many other bands that sound like them, thats the mark of a unique group. I like all their stuff, but they kind of lost me a little bit when they decided to go in a more ravish/dancey (?) direction (which seemed to be the rage at the time) on subsequent releases and lost some of the ballsiness of the first record.

  • Thanks grecell

    you made my saturday!

  • Great song. Brings back memories.

  • Saturday!!!!!!!!

  • Astoria? me to!

  • yeah spaz lyrics - how come they are playing live about 10 people will go

  • Boo you

  • seeing them next month!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why the fuck did you look it up then you freaking tool? Simply so you could leave a negative comment? Loser.

  • agreed. lotta idiots in this world apparently. and they like to point themselves out. long live neds

  • He loves what is desired!

  • I just bought my ticket for December!!! It'll be my four time since they 'split'. First time November 28th 1993.

  • this song is life

  • il do u hard

  • dunno why but this was my favourite Neds tune back in the day. Simple, but struck a chord (no pun intended). Thanks for posting all this, I'll enjoy trawling through it.

  • I haven't thought about this song in 15 years. Love it.

  • Yeah well listened to the "mock turtles can you dig it" and that is for the gays. That song is terrible and what the hell is up with that stupid look on the lead singers face? Anyway whoever reads the previous comment don't waste your time with the mock turtles. Unless you want to be annoyed.

  • Alex Griffin used to be my music teacher at secondary school. Legend!

  • awesome song !

  • it does sound as if he is saying "Tits are higher"

  • No it doesn't

  • fuck you

  • Fuck you twat! what the fuck do you know! Neds in the 90s were class and Thorns school!!!!!

  • Loving the durms on this. Saw them back in 1991 at the Manchester Academy, wildest gig I ever saw. Got a right battering near the front from the 'hardcore' element of fans. Not nice, but a great band all the same.

  • as we all take a trip down nostaliga road..saw them at the feile in thurles in 92..oh happy days, primals and wonderstuff on same bill..

  • I was a child of the 90's! I love ned's! They were the first band I met in person then, and they offered me to stay and have ice tea or lemonade with them, hee hee¡¡

  • Post this under misunderstood lyrics... when this song was popular, I was convinced the chorus was "when your tits are higher"

    Decades later, the internet informs me of my mistake, but I still prefer my version ! Ha.

  • haha u nob hed

  • hang on that wasnt ment here.. love this song

  • I saw these guys in 1995 at the first X-fest in Indy. The lead singer came out and said " This is last time I will ever play with these guys I'm through its over." I'll never forget that. I think they got back together.

  • Saw NAD at an HFStival in DC summer of 1993. It was about 100 degrees and I'll never forget the feeling of listening to this through the haze and the sun -- it was unreal and AWESOME! They rocked and you rock for posting this. Thanks.

  • Great memories-saw them live at the Lion Hotel in Adelaide in 1992-my face melted off-Another great live music venue gone the way of boutique beers and espressos!!

  • Holy shit! I havent listened to this stuff since the early 90s when me and my best friend used to love it in our young impressionable early teens. He's sadly dead now and this just has so much sentimental value. And funnily enough - it still sounds GOOD!

  • dead?

  • 13 years old, on my skateboard, God Fodder in my walkman turned ALL the way up, on a warm Iowa summer night, those memories will last a lifetime

  • i remember seeing these guys open for

    Jesus Jones. i only went to see Ned's and then i sat down for J.J.

  • Dude - me too, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Mac Hall Ballroom. 1992, I was around 18, bought a Ned's shirt.

  • yeah! damn good memories!

  • i got a full hi fi stereo copy of this from MTV

  • GOD FODDER !@!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good memories

  • The best song on the album FABULOUS!

  • much agreed.

  • only saw this vid once when it came out ... thanx for posting this

  • for some reason this song reminds me of summer

  • Totally agree... Great song and great memories tied to it.

  • love this band. Lead singer super HOT.

  • Best in their genre, by far.

    They still havent wrote a song I don't like.

  • awesome song =]

  • This song kicks arse!

  • Never understood why this band insisted on being catagorized as grunge when they were dreamier than Swirvedriver and Swirvedriver was grungier than them. Sweredriver is considered shoegaze so why is Ned's Atomic Dustbin not considered part of the early 90s baggy or shoegaze seen?

  • why be that concerned with what label to put on music. just enjoy. or don't.

  • sorry.. 19 to be exact

  • 22 years sinse I saw these guys live in Belfast..

  • kickass band

  • I wish i still had my Neds "Then You Fucked Up" T-Shirt still :(

    but i still have my VHS copy of Nothing is Cool.

    Sighs....good times

  • you just can't forget about these guys. These guys had a one of a kind sound,and i think it holds its own today.

  • One of the only bands I know of with two bass players, fuckin genius.

  • God, to think that coming from Stourbridge was considered cool for a few short happy years back then. :-D

    Who remembers The Swan? :-D

  • I thought they were from Birmingham?

  • They were from places like Quarry Bank and Kingswinford, I think, but associated themselves with Stourbridge; you used to see them wandering around there quite a lot. :)

  • wow, an actual melody. Don't hear those much anymore

  • Memories... lol. Cheers Greycell.

  • Always loved that song. Thanks for posting it.

  • what a great band...and what great memories...

  • to hootyhaha and wathcer, do you not think that grey cell green, kill your television or plug me in are not political? fuck, might as well be listening to the poppies instead. long live the dudley two

  • saw them in new york city. the most insane mosh pit i ever saw!

  • I want a shirt that has all the colors of this background. That's also what I'm sick of today. All clothes are brown, or dark earth tones. It's so depressing today in the music industry and clothing industry as well.

  • Just get some tye dye.

  • I wish NED'S would get back together and make care free happy rock again. I'm sick of Emotional, Political, Depressing rock that saturates society today.

  • They won't I'm affraid, I now work with the drummer at the Revenue in the Black Country

  • "Revenue in the Black Country" God, what a great set of words. What does it mean?

  • these should have been a lot bigger, top band

  • thanks greycell for upping this. what a great year for music, then.

    VVV-cool beans, extreme182

  • :) john (lead singer) is my mums uncle :D

  • It's awesome to have relatives that are cool and rock! But then again I'm someone's uncle and I think I rock. Life and family are definitely a mystery!!

    Ned's Atomic Dustbin in the house!

  • good times!

  • telling me its 'murderous, sat on a bus'

    as we used to sing whilst crimping our hair and deciding which of my 23 neds t shirts to wear.

    saw 'em 20 times.

    deep joy, oh to be 16 again, and not 34.

  • i was in 6th grade when this came out and I use to ahve a rope swing in the yard and I use to rope swing to this song! I would go nuts and do all thypse of crazy swings to this song! I had it on tape and would rewind it over and over! lol Memories of good old days, the one at present are just as special as well though...

  • its about love....LOVE, "its insider her, its inside me, desire, DESIER."

  • Hey great days - I remember nearly setting myself on fire trying to light a ciggy after crimping my hair in the same way and adding a good coating of hairspray...mmm

  • Yep....im getting old....those were good times and i loved being a fucking misfit in my town back then!

  • awsome song at that time in the early 90's, reminds me of a lot of good times!

  • This vid is turning me on!!!

  • I happened to see these guys at the Milk Weg in Amsterdam back in like 1991 by chance. They were so loud (and I've been to tons of loud shows) I could feel my sternum vibrating and the floor moving. Then again that may have been induced by alternate means, but they were still really loud! Great band!

  • reminds me of Penn State. Awesome song and video.

  • Does anyone have the song meaning for this? Other than it being awesome I never really understood what they were talking about.

  • I have heard this song described as the greatest pop song ever!... but that may have a lot to do with it's abstract nature...? Who knows... to me is about love and the environment...it's inside you and it's inside me to fix this world if we have the desire, And if we don't start setting our minds to a workable future for the 'whole' world the planet will star to die "grey cells green or you've got green cells grey"... or it could be about their local football team?

  • fucking brilliant! brings back so many memories! NEDDIES!!!!!

  • Perfect song for Rock Band. Sounds like it would be hard as hell on drums.

  • such a great great fucking song

  • holy crap! i used to play air guitar to this all the time when it first came on mtv back in the 90s! i'm getting old!

  • HA!! toootally! I eventually learned it on bass, and they had 2 bass players in the band. We ARE getting old :(

  • made me feel like jumping all around like in good old days!!!!!!!

  • OMGGGGGGGGG! I havnet heard this in YEARS1

  • FYI: Grand Rapids, MI. Got some new station. 96.1, Really interesting station. I can tell you, the best we have had in this "C R reformed bible belt" since Rick Beckett.

  • I just heard this on the radio today. I almost soiled myself!!HAHHAHA!!

  • This is in Rick Howards part in Plan B's " Questionable" psyched for unquestionable comming soon i think?

  • could you write any better? i doubt it

  • You twat. It was a joke! The words were displayed on a piss take T-shirt around the same time. You are such a disappointment!

  • haha

    this happened to me on a pwei comment

    ''what so fucking good about candy''

    people just dont know enough about these brill bands

    probably fucking stereophonic fans

  • If this song came out now it would still hold up.

  • This is almost like skatecore from the ninneteens...try spearmbirds...but this smash out!!!!!i've ride my sk8 listening this guys...=:D

  • this is an awesome song

  • Pretty cool band to skate to. They had 2 bass players, great energy.

  • i only know this song from the questionable skate dvd that i watched over my mates house

  • they should have been more popular.

  • ITS INSIDE ME!!!!! this tune never fails to make me smile bring back the 90s!!!!!

  • love, love, love thse guys. saw them 1996- feckin fab

  • Too bad they didn't last longer. Sadly, one more album and it was all downhill.

  • One of the best songs ever. People never realized how awesome this was.

  • Music is still great, s,a and waterman were around at the time of ned's, it's just that little bit harder to find the good stuff.

  • music used to be great...then along came stock aitken and waterman and the world changed for the worst...now we have the x factor...we might aswell be deaf..

  • true 90's music rocked.....now it's only downhill sadly

  • ...and if ever there was 90's music this is it! Great band!

  • i REMEMBER THE GOOD OLD DAYS WITH MY BEST FRIEND cHAZ AND rOD....LATE IN 1992...I WAS VERY HAPPY...SINCE THAT YEAR I NEVER HEARD THAT GREAT SONG

  • reminds me of middle school sweet song

  • such a good song and the bassist is awesome.

  • Both bassists are awesome. They have two of them.

  • I KNEW IT! i kinda guessed it after i heard the intro with both but i thought it was recorded as such...lol

  • Great song.

  • When I first got their disc and jammed to it back in the 90's with friends, they rated it above the main stream pop kurt cobain band, too much rum I can't remeber his bands name.

  • i think its nirvana?

  • My god, I think I am going to gatecrash a college party wearing a german shirt and DM's.  Excellent stuff

  • ist gig i ever went to at Tonbridge Angel centre when i was 15. fukin awesome

  • i remember in the early 90s (?) university in melbourne, drivng to a book shop in carlton, this song comes on JJJ, and i just keep driving until the song it over, volume up full, summer's day, great....makes me feel young too....thanks

  • makes me feel young...

  • for some reason this song reminds me of summer

  • NEDS SUPP0RTED THE WONDER STUFF AT BRIGHTON CENTRE

    when ''dont let me down gently'' was in the top 20

    SHAME ABOUT THE BASE THING ...

    also if the neds started off again they would have been bigger then hard fi etc

    a t-shirt band that seemed to loose their way

    god fodder was a greatly named album and also the album had a begging middle and a great ending!!

    PS KILL YOUR TELEVISION

  • o.k. just cried... it's been so long since I saw this video... another lifetime. I miss who I was back then.

  • Me too. Christ do you remember the summer this album was out? Music was the best. Neds, Sensless Things, Midway Still et al. I too miss who I was back then. Well put.

  • +1 for me.

  • senseless things..saw them at reading fest!!

    corrrrking

    the neds were shite at reading 1991 ish

    but in a small venue the neds were fukkking great

    do remember ... EAT ?

  • I bloody do! Psycho Couch. Do you remember Cud? I originally drummed for Kingmaker before they got a record deal. It was such a bizarre time! Miss it. Miss it. Miss it.

  • psycho couch....brill

    cud were awful hehe

    i saw kingmaker at brighton uni

    supporting that radiohead DURRRRGE

    about 1992 ish

    kingmakers early singles were fucking great

  • Man, this reminds me of getting up early in the morning and getting ready for school, while MTV was on in the background. I would grab my skateboard and fly out the door. Shame that MTV has lost the urge to display good music anymore, I miss being 16.....

  • i went to see these in 1990 i was only 16!they were brill! this is a very cool song!love it! BEV

  • Wicked...

  • i miss 120 minutes.

  • their sound is just orgasmic to the ears. marvellous

  • Changed my world!

    - Ned's Atomic Dustbin!

    Ageless!

    Thanks!

    Red

  • Bloody Marvellous

  • when i hear this tune i imagine some slow motion footage of tunnel surfing, followed by some bikini goddess.

  • Needs to go on Rock Band.

  • fuck that those games are keeping kids playing plastic guitars instead of the real thing, and in turn would keep the really shitty bands at the top of mtv's phony list.

  • Great tune that exploded on the early alternative scene. I remember this on 120 minutes. Thanks for posting!

  • This video doesn't come close to matching the energy of the song itself. It still sounds like youth, frivolity and energy. Same em live with Jesus Jones and couldn't stop playing this song afterwards. Still air-guitar to it when no one is around. Thanks for posting it.

  • omg! used too be a favorite song of mine! havent been able too find it in ages. thanks for this

  • these guys are way better than nirvana, bush, and all the other wanker bands of the 90s.

  • these guys are great im not disagreeing, but to mention Nirvana as a wanker band along with bush is a retarded comment, there was no one like Nirvana and there will never be again.
