2 tone! The union of Black and White! PEACE xxxxxx

[MrMushyhead]

this is fuck rite music hear by the way. fuck to days pish music

[davidocall]

Just turned 18 and I doubt anyone where I live my age would know who these guys are/were. Come to think of it, it would probably the same story with most of the music I listen to... Apart from a few special songs, music these days just doesn't carry the MAGIC it used to. The music that makes you want to move without promoting sex and/or violence. Great stuff.

[pontonion]

@davidocall definatly agree. the back in the mid to late 20th C was sooooooo much better than nowerdays

[FeedsNoSliesMusic]

@davidocall Not enough music, that's your problem.

[davidocall]

@FeedsNoSliesMusic I'll listen to anything, and alot of it. I still stand by my comment

[RoobstarAnimeFan1]

@davidocall Thats an unfair generalisation. Some music today is wonderful, I honestly dont know what I'd do without music, and many people I know agree with me, and dont just follow the flock with hip hop and dance.

I've been brought up to love the classics like message to you rudy, to love all genres of music and to give anything a chance.

Give music nowadays a try ;) I'm 14, and I listen to anything really, as long as it's music.

[davidocall]

@RoobstarAnimeFan1 I'll listen to anything, and alot of it. I still stand by my comment. I did comment on the few special songs that have that magic these days, so don't think I just blank it out. I just prefer my music to mean something other than fucking bitches and robbing cars (hip hop) or on the other hand making no sense atall (most of todays music)

[RoobstarAnimeFan1]

@davidocall I wasn't saying you were wrong with that opinion. I actually pretty much agree with it.

It's good to listen to lots of music, your comment just made you sound like you didnt.

Same. I dont dislike the music in hip hop exactly, but alot of the lyrics annoy me.

Also the angst. SO MUCH ANGST. Like, I enjoy angst in rock and punk. I like rock and punk. I dislike it when people do pop songs that are depressing though. Nobody writes happy songs anymore.

[sgtswitch1983]

@davidocall ska music is for everyone

[Ditypo]

@davidocall exaclty..

[SimsDotPop]

@davidocall I'm 14 and i know who these guys are there legends.. people who you must no where introduced to shit music like britney spears and christina agularia and justin bieber..there nothing compared to these guys!!

[hippydude89]

@davidocall what's wrong with promoting sex? why do you tie sex in with violence?

that's just stupid.

[davidocall]

@hippydude89 do you see the and/or, yes well half of that is or, isn't it? That means that it can be with or without eachother. Okay? Shame I had to spell this out really :/ And rocketing teen pregnancy rates are what's wrong with promoting sex.

[hippydude89]

@davidocall LOL because sex always ends with pregnancy? you fucking moron. or are you some christian nut. well moron and christian are synonymous. You're an idiot if you think teen pregnancy rates are because of promotion of sex in music. half these teens either wanted to get pregnant in the first place or were too stupid to use contraception. Either way, that's no argument against an artist voicing their promotion of sex if they want. Only idiots shun sex as some evil thing. Like you I guess.

[hippydude89]

@davidocall LOL because sex always ends with pregnancy? you fucking moron. or are you some christian nut. well moron and christian are synonymous. You're an idiot if you think teen pregnancy rates are because of promotion of sex in music. half these teens either wanted to get pregnant in the first place or were too stupid to use contraception. Either way, that's no argument against an artist voicing their promotion of sex if they want. Only idiots shun sex as some evil thing. Like you I guess.

[davidocall]

@hippydude89 I don't shun sex if it's between mature adults who aren't thick as shit, like you perhaps? I'm not a Chrisitian, and if you think there is NO connection between thoughtless teen sex (=teen pregnancy) and sex promoting songs then there is no point in me arguing with you. And promoting sex glamourises it to dipshit kids, which is why there is something wrong with it. You never hear them rapping/singing about contraception so they share fault in being irresponsible with their power. <3

[hippydude89]

@davidocall you're still a moron for thinking teen sex= teen pregnancy. Seriously, stop living in the dark ages. Any person with even a 2 digit IQ knows to use contraception. I guess the reason you are against songs promoting free love is because you think from your own easily influenced and primitive mind, that everyone is going to suddenly go and get pregnant because some song promotes something natural like sex. Abstinence is unnatural.

[hippydude89]

@davidocall the extremely vast majority of teenage pregnancies are the result of COUPLES in relationships who think they want a kid. That has nothing to do with them listening to music- most music nowadays would mock people getting pregnant.

[onestrangewinternite]

SHARP!

[BTMLOL]

Song is a fuckin' classic! remember listenin to this in the car with my dad on the way to primary school 

[Mrdede1998]

i walked into school blaring this song out with a 'swagger' and one of the kids in my school came up to me and said "why are you doing that you batty man?" and i said back "well you do the same, the only differnce is I have the taste in music" thumbs up for a 12 year old like me coming up with a come back like that

[d0ne14]

@Mrdede1998 thumbs down for begging thumbs ups

[sludgewig]

@Mrdede1998 no offence but that wasnt really a thumbworthy comeback

[gangstarsonny]

@Mrdede1998 Im only 13 I love this song!

[skinner768]

@Mrdede1998 good on ya mate, you have GREAT taste in music and that other twat doesnt lol

[edn172]

@Mrdede1998 so you like the specials... and? stop looking for approval.

[1N5iGN1a]

@Mrdede1998 dude noooo one cares bout ur age its not like some badge of prestige.. im happy u like good music but no one fucking cares dude

[gangstarsonny]

@1N5iGN1a A-freakin-men

[GuestOfGregoryHouse]

@1N5iGN1a "dude" seriously? "dude?" don't be a prick

[animegalc4]

[claypiesexygod]

@Mrdede1998 good lad. stay rude!

[simonturner73]

This takes me back:)

[DFA1981]

So sick of youtbe these days, can somebody please explain why twats like EMI etc disable embedding now? Been on this site since 05-06, but youtube is fast going down hill IMO. I just fail to see the logic behind disabling embedding!

[elchupenibre]

<3 classic song

[TheLukedoyle]

I've seen the seen The Speicals live and it was probably one of the best times of my life cuz i shook Neville Staple's hand :D

[stu1300]

[russianfantastico]

I'm 75 and I think this song rules. Nah, jk.

[AtlanticCastra]

How can people these days listen to absolute crap like pop music when this stuff went around.

Top stuff ^_^

[titmantdogg1984]

@MrJackWaters its refreshing to hear that some younger kids nowadays can appreciate older music, good on ya lad

[gizmothecat08]

Im a bit after this generation, born in 76 but grew up and still love this song, and all the two tone movement :) todays shite cannot touch it :) x

[1994kirstylouise]

Even though I'm 15, I prefer to listen to this type of music, Because I feel it relates to any generation. I've grown up listening to this from my dad, Specials, Madness, the beat, The ephiopians, and Toots and the maytals have all inspired me to do music!

[micktheMaag]

figures... white guy in the middle has no Rhythm great band tho...llol

[geordie4toon]

wish a was around then :(

[numetalbeast]

damn... this song i powerfull i learned it on my harp by ear and i feel great now

[numetalbeast]

Skank to them rudeboys Oi Oi!

[skinner768]

fuck justin bieber, the specials rock

[JentasticJohnson]

lol!!! I meant *used. Thaaaaattttt's funny. I'm very sorry @MrJackWaters :)

[JentasticJohnson]

I'd appreciate @MrJackWaters ' comment if the right *there had been use. This day and age truly does suck though.The closest thing to this we have are hipsters, and everyone knows that hipsters are a mere waste of time.... Such a shame...

[philtomasbrs]

@JentasticJohnson I can't believe you've just picked someone up on a spelling mistake then made one yourself, in the same sentence. Shame on you! You should apologise to MrJackWaters.

[seymore1997]

mrjackwaters i totally agree with you, we are born in the wrong fucking era!

[moiandhim2]

@seymore1997 you're not born in the wrong era, you just dont fit in society these days.. no offence pal, but there were just as many problems politically, philosophically and in everyday life as there are now.. so live for today, and take the good parts out of every era, just like this bloody fantastic song!!

[OBIWANKENOBIDUDE]

@seymore1997 Imagine if we were born in the 40's era and went to Woostock in the sixties and experienced all of the 60's-80's.

[iveco321]

@OBIWANKENOBIDUDE i was born early 60's and even that was brilliant , caught the end of the flower power , 60's , glam rock, punk, ska revival , modern romantics, manchester scene - it was such an inspirational time i became a club deejay for 17 years - loved it - so sad today though - x factor just about sums up the music industry

[countchunkula]

The specials are so special

[j4kk4j]

Look how awesome they are when they bounce around :)

[bigbawser]

ska  rule

[julesL5]

best song

[mckrazyishere]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah man

[xArNy93x]

stop your messing around

[boazandjiacinth]

much respect to EMI, at least the leave the music on youtube, unlike sony/WMG, imagine if these masterpieces were owned by WMG, only us crew that knew it would have ever heard it, and i am well encouraged that so many young nutters dig this, and get to see it, and hear it..

[remainsoldmisery]

Hence, essentially you are following another form of written ideology! Well, one can teach a monkey, almost, anything. Splendid!

[66corsair]

great . love it .

[sparti8]

at least the fedora's are making a comeback

[mephisto100973]

@sparti8 Those arent Fedora's. They are called "Pork Pie Harts"!

That's a common mistake folks make. Fedora's are 1930's to 1950's era gentleman's hats. Worn by gangsters and business man alike. Pork Pie Hats on the other hand originally were flat on top but the British and Jamaican Pork Pie hats were much similar to a short rimmied Fedoras and the Trilby.

[alexy6012]

all you 16 year olds really know what youre doin, props for findin great music

[punktodeath1]

@alexy6012 haha yep im 16 and damn oldies are the best!!

[welshslag1]

fuckin awesome track

[001disneystar]

total classic i so remember being involved with 2 tone and seeing the specials live now that was something.............

[punkandoi69]

gets me back up when im down

[MikeTube7]

Man, this is good. I dare anybody to make music like this today!

[Redhotice54]

My Step dad used to have a mix tape with this on that he used to play all the time in his old Golf. I'm 16 now and this is how I know about and still like this song :D

[AlexSalamander757]

what a good song i wish ska bands would really look up to these guys talents...i love them and im 14

[Bieji]

I wish I could find all these so called 15 and 16 year olds who listen to this music in MY school

[SLAPnPOP726]

@Bieji There are about five of us at our school who actually do so you should transfer over. You'll be in good company.

[Bieji]

@SLAPnPOP726 Unfortunately I'm in the U.S., and everyone here are idiots.

[SLAPnPOP726]

@Bieji Haha well so am i, mate.

[ISawRed123]

@MrJackWaters im 14 and i agree. the music now sucks. i wish i could go back then, when htere was actually real music

[rockingcruiser]

the specails were the plitical group of the 2tone movement and alot of their songs are still valid today,and people nowadays seem to think that multicultural groups like the specials or the selecter and even the bodysnatchers are just recent but hey folks take a look futher back in history have a look at some of the vocal groups of the 50's
