  • NIce one for this track! :) R.I.P Lee Ellis 1 <3

  • I DON'T CARE ABOUT HOW CLEVER YOU ALL THINK YOU ARE. SHUT UP,LISTEN TO THE MUSIC AND MOVE ON.

  • This song and video make me cry ;'[

  • a film titled, "stealing a nation" by John Pilger, will give you a deeper understanding about the world we live in. If you think you are free, think again, the aforementioned film, as well as "the power of nightmares" and "the century of the self" by Adam Curtis, will undoubtedly open your eyes to reality

  • I love Ian Brown. He is my hero!!!! Everything he writes is so poetic and intelligent and far beyond what any P.M can even recognize until the point upon it becomes to late. "It aint the size of the dog in the fight its the size of the fight in the dog" GENIUS!!!! Ian, Monkey King, Thank you!!!!

  • no blood for oil

    licenced psychopaths should go home and blow their fucking brains out

  • its great but i dont like that chorus were sinead conor sings, should just be brownie

  • david camaron is a fucking disgrace

  • @spritey16 He has no mandate. At least Maggie won an election before she ripped this country to shreds and deregulated the financial industry to create the monster we are currently paying for. Cameron's solution is to sell off what's left to foreign billionaires whilst dancing to the true Brit fantasy.

  • @sugarraygras yeah, both sides are non partisan, theyre all for sucking bankers cock

  • @sugarraygras then Maggie let young men die for there country because she didnt see taking someone's country a taboo and dont get me started with poll tax, anti movement campaign stopping young people having a good time or living in there chosen life style, well cameron can sell the countrys back to the owners

  • @911cads Scary times. Privatisation of public services is anti democratic as there is no implied necessity of disclosure to the public of a private companies KPI or expences, therefore accountability. When these companies exist on public money it is amazing that the wider public cannot understand that their rights and services are being eroded. Its a scam and a sham and a shame. The national debt was much higher post war than it is even now and yet they could afford house building and NHS.

  • Ian Brown: lyrical genius. fact.

  • True legend,

    Cool as fuck

  • Does not a day go by.

    Without the Israeli Air Force.

    Fail to drop its bombs from the sky?.

    How many mothers to cry?.

    How many sons have to die?.

    How many missions left to fly over Palestine?.

    'Cause as a matter of facts.

    It's a pact, it's an act.

    These are illegal attacks.

  • @arcz10 Cock

  • @windigglesUK did u not get some for xmas boyo?

  • Its the job of fathers to educate their children on the realities of modern warfare, how corporations profit, how coward politicians send others to do their killing and dying for them and how they dress it up with patriotism and duty to the 'nation'. Meanwhile at home bankers get bailed out and we pay our mortgages (mort = death in latin). Wakeup , Ian great song and video.

  • ian brown , one of the few with balls these days

  • ooooh..this was a very powerful song that hit me right in the gut, as that recruiter convinced the young boy to go to war because he couldn't find a job. That was my son, right there. :-((((( Bastards, bring those soldiers home!

  • ingiliscene gurban olduğumun adamım yaa...

  • One of his most underated tunes ever. Work of a genius. All stand for DA MAN! 

  • you are a good man Ian!

  • im glad vevo haven't got hold of this video to bleep out the best pronunciation of "fuck" goin :'-)

  • Great to see another high profile artist speaking some truth, respect Ian Brown.

  • Not all the soldiers are unhappy. I'm American and have some friends and family over there. Some of those guys really like it. Over there they're in a life and death drama and they're being equipped with millions of dollars worth of weapons, tanks, helicopters. Back home they'd be unemployed or flipping burgers. We live in a society where most people feel alone/isolated. The guy in the cubicle next to you would never risk his life for you. People crave meaning in life. Who actually has it?

  • theres no god if there was bad shit wudnt happen

  • @pellit123 God isn't Santa Claus. Who says we deserve pain free lives. To live is to suffer. Look at nature.

  • thank you" Ian" for saying the truth.

  • U.S.A. POWERMONGERS :( The Gov, not the peeps !

  • @d34dincid3 The government are the people. The computer you use needs tantalum to function. The Congolese civil war (over 6 million dead) was funded in great part by the sale of tantalum to western corporations. Chinese workers making Ipads and Ipods have had to sign anti-suicide pacts because so many workers have offed themselves due to the miserable working conditions. The oil in your car comes from despotic regimes in the middle east. Are you going to give up your lifestyle to save lives?

  • @jimgravesus I'm not going to invade any country for OIL.

  • @jimgravesus 6 million Haitians dead for the cotton and lumber trade? Corporations insuring their workers against deaf in service named 'dead peasant' insurance. Freedom is an illusion that is sold like everything else, to gullible little minds manufactured to consent.

  • this is a fuckin tune im more Hip Hop and R&B but me dad got us listenin to this but its WELL GOOD!!!

  • we are ants contolled by a queen that we are supposed to have chosen to have our say for us,we the people control and pay the goverment!!!!we all forget that,if we all rise up and make them remember this,fuck all can be done about your standup as one person!!!!!!!the only thing thats real is gaverments playing chess with peple for fucking money,to make sure they are sweet,then they tax us even more,say no,stand up,park your car up in the middle of a road,leave it at a pump

  • @VIKINGODIN say i asked you to do it,tell them my name,claim being a sheep,easily led like your programmed to be,google is monitoring what I say now,do I care?FUCK YOU GOOGLE,FUCK YOU GOVERMENT!!!!!!OUR TAXES BUILD YOUR SATELLITES CUNTS!!

  • Ian you are possibley one of the only Rock'n'roll singers who sings the truth. ILOVEYOUIAN<3

  • So tell me just how come ? 911

  • love this song, so very true, thank you Ian Brown

  • WOW they let this on? lol slippin or else the hollywood desensitising us well to reality

  • Great tune. Love Ian Brown.

  • 25 people don't understand the corporate elite

  • I have got some acoustic songs that I would like Ian Brown to hear before he finalises his next Album. Please advise.

  • This has not reached the 1 million mark why?

  • @mcflower43 cause he says u.k not u.s xD plus the majority (america) of america seems to be more into war?

  • @mcflower43 Cause the mongs are still sucking it up from the corporate shills. Has it ever been any different? How did Oasis outsell the Stone Roses?

  • @sugarraygras ok that made no sense to me but ok :)

  • @sugarraygras i am a masive oasis fan and a massive stone roses fan and im thinking because oasis did a lot more tunes that went famous although i reckon the roses did some much better ones

  • @jimmyzgames They are both great bands, however Ian is a true wordsmith and his songs and views have true relevance, whereas Oasis were all about the attitude> Both represent the working classes well but I prefer the brain of Ian to the empty hedonism of Oasis. That said, I think Noels best songs are to come.

    But in the words of Ian Brown at least 'Oasis copied him rather than Elton John, which shows that they have good taste'.

  • 26 dislikes. I don't know. Some people are a waste of good skin. Great music, great lyrics. Listen and learn!!!!

  • He never really played this song live which I think is a pity because it's a cracking tune.

  • @21mrscarface only stupid cunt is you ya fucking whore. hope ya fella took a round in iraq or afgan.

  • Great message, Thanks Ian for helping to expose the tyrants who are destroying the world.

    Be safe. Most people are aware. We, the people, need to get motivated (me included). Stop paying taxes and mortgages - until the government takes back their sovereign right to print money from the fed (this feeds the wars).

    Artist like you (or Mark Pittman, the journalist who exposed the goldman sach/ aig 13 billion dollar theft in late 2008 - may he rest in peace) are making a difference.

  • @Foxeee Well said, wars are created, mostly for money and power. The ruling class doesn't care who lives or dies. It's never their children.

  • MrJackdaman7, It is an insult to Ian to put him in the same sentence as Justin. Justin is fabricated Candy Kid. Nothing on the inside....

  • ian brown- fucking great...... justin beiber is shite compared

  • Ian Brown a poet and profit

  • EXPOSE THE SATANIC ZIONIST ILLUMINATI, "CONCRETE FACTS" THAT THEY CONTROLLING US ALL...WAKE UP PEOPLE AND FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH, BEFORE WE'RE ALL FUCKED!!

    FREEDOM FOR THE WORLD!

  • @Justice4Lennon Someone just read the Da Vinci Code?? LOLOL Get a life mate

  • Comment removed

  • love this tune & its message, Bring the troops home fighting rich white mens wars. Ian Brown is my God

  • whos the women singing in this?

  • @yougottaloveit100 sinead o'connor

  • If I could dig Canada up and move it far away from the overbearing suppressing powers to the south Id have moved long time ago, and perferably closer to britain! you guys rock!

  • look for cata sadam es satan youtube videos.

    thanks for your song ian !!!

    cropses----

  • answer: look for cata sadam es satan

  • Ian Brown, the guy who doesn't always treat people with respect is Mr. Peace?! Dude, stick to being a cocky, pain in the ass frontman.

  • @ADirtDiggler the two are not mutually exclusive, we can all make mistakes and behave like twats that is what being human is.It doesnt stop you seeing what is right and wrong on a global level and as a artist you have a duty to make music which questions views,puts facts out and more importantly you are passionate about..I would suggest if artists having a conscience and a viewpoint bothers you then listen to the latest x factor drone.

  • @dylan8176

    Are you named for Bob Dylan by chance?I just don't want personal opinions from my entertainers.That is my opinion only, and I voiced it and good for you for voicing yours. I don't give a rats ass what Ian Brown has to say about politics, or fake ass actors. We will NEVER have complete peace on earth. Too many conflicts of interest, and they are only growing, not lessening. I see my viewpoint of that of a realist. Wish in one hand, shit in the other. See which one fills up fastest.

  • @ADirtDiggler nice to converse sensibly on youtube for a change and i respect what you are saying.However, artists/entertainers are in a unique position of actually being listened too by the masses.Therefore, by making songs that are raising awareness of issues they are bringing those issues to the fore.I do agree with you though in the sense of when musicians get political with a mediocre understanding in can be both misguided and damaging,Bono,Geldoff and band is a case in point to this.

  • @ADirtDiggler if you asked ian for his left arm nicely he would give it you, i thought that he was a bit of a twat till i met him and became friends with him, lovely guy m8

  • @hamzaakisaeed If thats true can you ask him nicely to play this one live once and a while. Also if he can lend me a couple of hundred grand to tide me over. Nice.

  • Love Ian Brown, HATE when muscians get all political. And when England gets attacked, then I'll listen to what a BRITISH guy says.

  • el hombre-simio.Conciertazo que disfrutamos en Benicassim

  • Illegal attacks since 911 twin towers collapse at free fall speed and no steel framework left in the wreckage thats impossible. Dont believe the truth....

  • @bolivianex if thats impossible then what happened to the frame then. did it just dissapear. must of gone somewhere mate

  • @teemdom Well there is some interesting footage as the towers collapse youll find lots of videos on u tube mainstream news will never report it. The real truth is out there mainstream news lies

  • @bolivianex fair 1

  • go brownie

  • spot on mr brown! fuckin corrupt bastards!

  • "Imagine there are no countries". Then you'll see a clearer picture of the illusion of 'nations' (immagned communites)which we identify with along with other little belief systems so fleeting and fragile little egos can temporarily have something false to grab on to and fight for. These 'enemies' are created so we can go into unwinnable wars which are meant to be continued in order for the 'ruling class' to have control over their 'subjects'..

  • @Foxxeee You seem to have made a good assessment of our current situation. Now they have the poor people paying for the losses of the banksters and their casino fractional reserve scams, you would have thought people who see through the bull but they dont. Now they are argueing why its such a good idea to take away the welfare life line from the most vulnerable people in our societies to pay for the American subprime crash. 'In the valley of the blind the one eyed man is king'.

  • @sugarraygras truth mate truth indeed.

  • @northernswagga Keep the swagger my friend> Happy new year>

  • @Foxxeee and what amazing system do you have to replace it? true communism is impossible which seems to be what your getting at. no matter what the powerful will always rule over the majority

  • @Foxxeee

    So TRUE <3

  • @Foxxeee Devide and conquer..............!

  • @Foxxeee Beautiful man I'm hearing ya

  • PERFECT choice having Sinead O'Connor featured on this track!

  • US won't let Iraq to be Rish cuz it's full of muslims

    the same about afghanistan

    they're scar or hate muslims that the only possible reason

  • @kwitzo It`s not about religion. With respect KW. I think it`s about geography and minerals - oil, gold etc. They`ve all tried.. the Brits, Russain, Americans... They`ve now made monsters there...

  • undermines the job all those proud soldiers are doing, see his beef but the people donig the job should be commended for their bravery and patrtiotism. you see a service man get on an economy flight in the US and you can guarantee someone in 1st class will give their seat up, happens all the time,wouldnt happen here

  • @scottyconners fuck off you muppet spoon fed prick. you know nothing about the real world. so fuck off and do us a favour and take a bullet over there or come back home and be spat on you fucking war mongering cunt.

  • @Lronsjetpack well said m8..

  • @scottyconners fuck off you moron..open your eyes..when you terrorise you create terrorism..so who are the real terrorists.?

  • THIS GREAT HUMAN BEING SPEAKS THE TRUTH

  • before the one world goverment is thrust upon us and the compulsary RFID chips are enforced.Great song with great message. If you interested in what is planned for us research H.A.A.R.P, chemtrails, CFR, Bilderburgers, Club of Rome, these should scratch the surface.But remember " its not the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog".

  • amazing that 1 trillion dollars worth of natural minerals found in afghanistan including the largest supply of lithium known dwarfing Bolivias resources oh and guess what? naturel gas and oil found too!.Thank god the US are there to make sure it is controlled and distributed appropiatly with the profits ploughed into to rebuild the country.Just wish everyone would wake the FUCK up and realise what our ELECTED representives are doing across the globe.

  • such hate filled souls..no wonder certain elements troll these sites...wow

  • WOW Excellent track LOVE IT, ITS THE TRUTH

  • Unarmed deliverers of food are now targets.............What goes on ?

  • Oh yes and this song is shit! What are you playing at Ian you monkey faced prick.

  • freeeeeeeeee palestine baby

  • if its all for oil which i think it is, then those cunts in the shirts and ties should get there hands bloody not our innocent civilians!!!!!! o and by the way the earths natural oils will all be gone in 30 years from now as this is a fact.

  • "It ain't the size of the dog in the fight, It's the size of the fight in the dog.''

    Say what you like, that is absolute fucking truth. Anybody who's been there, man or woman knows it's the truth.

  • 3 years on and Still the troops are commenting genocide on the Middle east.

    Under the LAWS of WAR the invasion was Illegal but the world elite want this genocide to happen, no one can stop them, the fact that they are still there is PROOF.

    The people of the world need to WAKE up and STAND UP and be heard.

  • @ukbands ... Unfortunate that we don`t. YouTube comments are all we do.

  • what a fucking tune, ian brown cant wait tae see u at rockness.

  • Thank you Ian, wot de fuck is going on ?

  • Perfect theme song for the Iraq Inquiry

  • This song was premature in its release, I'm saying that because it was visionary and prophetic, relevant then and even more now, this song is exactly right for this very day, this very year, this very now, it is spot in every way, and apart from that it is a fkn great choooon!!!

    Stop WAR Mother Fucker!

  • @VoxJoxx

    War will never end. Face reality instead of false hopes. Holding up peace signs will not work.

  • Paki Cunts get out of England.

The takeover, the break's over! like the SEX PISTOLS said "England's dream" here to stay don't blame ya I'm half Indian & I'd join the BNP cuz we're basterds [I'd do a drive by fm Manchester to London! look at the state of england!! & how long we been here! its over like Your English Defence Leage!

  • fuck thats even better eh.....ian hates britain...type in ian with irish flag and listen to what he says about the union jack....or maybe the stone roses..elizabeth my dear..basically saying...fuck your monarchy..

    hail hail

  • very good!you got any mates in the army???????????

  • no i havent....why?

  • @hoppybhoy71 :- Ian Brown (about the Irish tricolour):

    "Lucky aren't you, you've got a flag you can wave around. I haven't got one of them. We've just one of them dirty Queen 'Elizabeeths' flags. You've got a proper flag. Lucky aren't ya?"

  • @TheeElusivePimpernel yeah m8..bloody well said by ian..the monarchy are a joke..

  • is that Ian who's taking the photo at 1:46 ?

  • awesome song!!!! me and ma bro hoos in armys fave song. and male singer

  • It`s easy for the UK/US media to move public opinion into thinking all people from the East are evil and need to be taught a `jolly good` lesson. Ian Brown points out the fact that, in the UK at least, we at street level are not so naive.

  • Comment removed

  • There`s so much in here... truly a wise man. He`s watching the world from above.

  • Awesome. Powerful...and done with alot more sincerity than Bono and his big sunglasses....

  • who supplied the weapons for iraq to invade kuwait?

  • Comment removed

  • Do your research fckwit, the cia told saddam they wouldn't move on him if he claimed kuwait. You do know saddam was a cia operative?...nah probably not.

  • Good comment. There`s a nice photo of Cheney clinking champain glasses with Saddam when he was a good little obedient boy. (Forgive the spelling!)

  • Fantastic Video!

  • fcking brilliant!!

  • the legend telling it like it is,can anyone tell me why working class men & women are dying,fighting a war for the rich get richer,follow the money & you'll find out why we're there,over a million innocent civilians have been murdered,why are we in there country we have no right to be there,the bastards who send the men & women of our armies to there death should be tried for treason,WHY ARE WE THERE, WHY?

  • @davyro66 Its worth it my freind

  • @MrYorkyporky no its not its a rich man's game,being played by working class heroes

  • @davyro66 More pluses than negatives. You just dont see them.

    I agree pull them out now and drop a A-Bomb on the place but as for going in there, it was the right thing to do at the time.

  • @davyro66 I guess It's because USA wanted it to be like that...those fucking bastards always trying to get richier...buying lands here in Argentina for low rates and stealing petrol from a country who is innocent...and all this with the help of the goverment of Israel...is it me the only one who thinks that 9/11 was the biggest masquerade ever planned? COME ON!... : (

  • @oasisforever00 no its definitely not only you who thinks 9/11 was the biggest false flag of them all,im a member of 9/11 truth myself,its quite obvious that the israli mossad had a massive part in 9/11 along with rogue elements of the CIA,the size of this movement not only in the U.S is massive & getting bigger all the time,on a lighter note i see you like oasis as well,i went to see them for the second time last summer they were brilliant

  • @davyro66 Hahaha Yes It's one of my favourite bands...I'm glad to hear that...looking forward to listening new Liam's band? ;d

  • @davyro66 totally agree with you. It´s the same in Mexico.

  • @davyro66 To be taken seriously you really need to learn you their, there, they'res.

  • So TRUE!!!

  • Brilliantttt

  • What pl is this of any one know.Peace man
