[bigcol911]

Ah Man, What a flashback, one of the tunes of my life. Watched this film in a movie Tent at Reading in 1996, Tremendous

[mariosonic66]

I bought Born Slippy Nuxx and Born Slippy a while ago. Born Slippy Nuxx is like 11:38 and Born Slippy is 7:14. This is a shorter of Nuxx. Since the original doesn't have a crash and has a break from the bass drum around 4:20 and is a bit less creepy...

[TheBrewforbreakfast]

Born Slippy was the name of a greyhound (racing dog ) wonder what the hell they fed him on.....

[mariosonic66]

Is it just me or does the song get scary after 4:31

[djdean0]

@mariosonic66 It does as i no longer use them links :) No seriously though this was ripped from a compilation CD Zombie Nation was the next track that was coming in

[thepopmistro]

[sp2nky]

90'ies man.. 90'ies

[turret1971]

, Karl Hyde said: "We used to go out drinking in Soho and I ended up in the Ship on Wardour Street. All the lyrics were written on that night. A drunk sees the world in fragments and I wanted to recreate that. I was inspired by Lou Reed's New York album and Sam Shepard's Motel Chronicles."

[AaRoN2T10]

boy boy and beter BOYS

[sweetie170281]

How can anyone not love this song? As someone with a chequered past this song has so many memories both good and bad. Clubbing, loving, just being me. Of course there will always be the Trainspotting connection and as someone with a knowledge of such things and having come out the other side of a very dark place this song is a triumphant anthem for me! Classic, massive and the consumate clubbing tune! Loving it!!!!! :-P :-)

[doggggg46]

this song is about EVERYTHING - AWEsome track.....

[Hornet0biker]

This is about child sex workers (rent boys) in Edinburgh. Great tune but remember the message ye raj cunts.

[Hornet0biker]

[DJBrokenHigh]

Cocaine is a hell of a drug

[Hornet0biker]

@DJBrokenHigh Dickhead.

[Starsamantha95]

This song is about drugs.............

[HardCoreCesare]

ma chi sono i 4 stronzi ai quali non piace sto cazzo di capolavoro?

[DJBrokenHigh]

This is no doubt one of the best Underworld hits I have heard.

But first time I heard these lyrics, I thought the singer was talking about a transsexual

[jadelisa1234]

the song is saying about alcoholics...

if you did your reasearch, youd find out :)!

its all supossed to be a alcoholics dialog :D

[dublin2k9]

[djdean0]

So its offical this video has been on here over a year now and one of my most popular uploads!!

Thankyou for watching. were currently upto 7,187 views keep them coming.

[Mac0Cheese]

wat is this about?

[ramboy237]

had trouble keepin up lool

[6u1ll3]

From wikipedia:

The band has stated that the pounding, relentless rhythm and shouted lyrics of the track were originally meant "as a joke"[1], and the single received little attention. They have also said in a Guardian interview[2] that the song is intended to sound like an alcoholic's internal dialogue and that Karl Hyde was a functional alcoholic at the time.

[barriodvegueta]

Temazooo......

[devonjames10]

In Croc: Legend Of the Gobbos for PlayStation, a name of an level "Shouting Lava Lava Lava" was believed to be a spoof off of this song.

[rapeybabe]

it's all about the uppers guys...

love it

[custer1968]

"going back to Romford".....

[kozes]

i loooveee the Mega mega whit thing part! so freaking much!

[Lapeer9]

classic! love club anthems

[loulouthepro]

I reckon its about taking ecstacy on a night out. Musically, the song starts off with the anticipation then everything starts to kick in slowly (when your coming up) then it all just kicks off when the drumbeat comes in (when you've actually come up) "You had chemicals boy I've grown so close to you" its about the loved up feelings you get when on E. "Mega mega white thing" talking about the actual pill itself the last line is about the comedown of E. hence the headache!!

[djdean0]

Having read your comment,

I now see what the meaning of it is.

And yet surprisingly i never even thought about it before when it makes so much sense!

E the white thing!!

Thanks for posting :-)

[COLLIER217]

@djdean0 i think hes talking about himself he is clearly gay and when he says lipstick boy and bio boy it makes sense, i think the head ache part is possibly when he came out the closet i defo think the white thing is drugs tho could be wrong never the less unbelivable song!

[DJBrokenHigh]

@COLLIER217

This band has existed since the 70s, during a time when alot of dance music was associated with homosexual clubs, plus, In an essential mix, he repeated "I need a penis" I think 6 times when he was performing King Of Snake in Creamfields......yeah, he is clearly gay

[tspcrowther]

To me its the about the hole night.. The drugs the beers, the moozik. the meating someone you really fancy that lives miles away. The headache. Stuff like that.

[cri015]

i think you're right dude

..also it may contain some lyrics about the film

but dunno

[Hinotafandemonfox]

@loulouthepro dude, i just read what you posted then replayed the song. that sound about right.

[hornetobiker]

@loulouthepro Yes mate, it is about E's.

[WWEFalcon]

Thanks for the lyrics. Does anyone know what the meaning of them are though? Like was Underworld thinking of a certain person or something while writing the lyrics/song?

[djdean0]

Not a problem mate, Now i just had a look on wikipedia.....

And there is no refernce to the meaning of born slippy.

But if i can find any infomation i will let you know.

But hey, the tune is sooo good that the meaning of it will be lost anyhow lol

[Starsamantha95]

@djdean0 the song is about drugs

[jaza61]

brill i will know it off in a week

[jaza61]

thanks4thelyrics

[djdean0]

Not a problem, I thought it would be great idea to find the lyrics to this belter of a club tune and put it together in a video for those that never understood the song.

Now i can sing the whole thing espicially on a friday night whenever it's played on Dance Anthems and im at work lol

[TheShag69]

Cheers! The only place it's played in Hawaii is in my car stereo, and trust me, it's played LOUD =) Such an awesome song.

[Megynnnn]
