  • Hey Guys, I just posted a cover of this on my profile. If you have got time, it'd mean alot if you could take a small part of your time and go check it out :). I have nothing showing my name as I will get a lot of stick from my mates at school if they find out, so I am Pretty nervous hahah. Its my first ever cover and youtube video so i am far from perfect, but some feedback would mean the world to me. Anyways Thanks x

    Save The World, Get The Girl.

    

  • Itch has much love. He spontaneously hugged me after the gig in Amsterdam. And I'm a guy. Great band, love them.

  • People please. Can we all just chill? There can't be hate comments on a song about having love <3

  • the 87 people who dislike this video are complete pricks! sorry for being so mean but seriously? the king blues are sweeties and their music is ama-ZING! XxX

  • This song makes me want to sing this to a girl I Love <3

  • Was actually pretty down the last few days.. but then I discovered The King Blues and their amazing music.

    I'm really feeling better than ever.

    Music can really cure people I guess :)

  • BRILLIANT Band. that is all.

  • Brilliant Band! that's all.

  • I see these guys at Blackpool every August, playing to the real home crowd.

  • I can't get passed the first 30 seconds without smiling. Freakin' LOVE this song <3

  • i love the clip of itch 0:46 to 0:49:)

  • Saw them at the Hub festival in Liverpool, they were so chill!

  • i got love for this song. <3

  • The start of The King Blues downward spiral from classic Ska band to bland pop group. R.I.P. TKB

  • @ConwayS87 Dude, they're the only band around who still have a message. Plus their sound is better now

  • @cfcolly You're clearly not looking hard enough if you think they're the only band with a 'message'

  • @ConwayS87 A lot of music is a bit of a cop out at the moment. not a lot of bands want to sing about anything real of course there are other bands around who talk about politics and actually have a message to be heard, but TKB are the best

  • @cfcolly Music isn't always about sending a 'message'. Some music is just fun music which should be enjoyed. But if you think TKB are the best band around with a 'message' then that's up to you.

  • @cfcolly dude i would massively disagree with yuo on that, in my opinion their music has degenerated into mediocrity with their third album...plus i felt properly let down by itch when he drove literally the entire band apart from jazz to quit.....replacing the lot of them. Sorry for the rant, but the king blues used to be such a beautiful band (ie the first two albums)

    

  • @JDeeDyer The only reason they kicked Fruitbag out was cos he was off his face on coke every show. He came out with that message against itch and he chose not to reply out of respect. I have to say prefer punk to save the world. it's so much more versatile, plus itch's song writing really comes into it's own on punk. The other two are great, but Punk & Poetry is special. I can see why you'd be disappointed with the move away from ska if you liked the first album but the fact is bands move on

  • @cfcolly Sorry, but you have absolutely no basis on which to say he was off his head on coke the whole time. I agree, itch is one hell of a lyricist, but when you say bands move on, what you really mean is that itch moves on. They didnt kick out fruitbag, he quit.But also, you forget that the reason the rest of the band at that time quit was because itch and jazz started playing with an entire new group of musicians....perhaps they were better....but still, massive lack of loyalty.

  • @JDeeDyer I'm only saying sayin what I've heard, In all fairness I saw them tour save and they were tight as ever so who knows. Maybe it was a bit disrespectful but really all they were doing was experimenting and fruitbag especially couldn't write anything half decent without itch or jazz holding his hand. I can tell you I've spent like half a day with the band doin' filmin' n that n they've got nothing but respect for those guys.

  • Two gigs down, hopefully many many more to go! Love this band so much!

  • So, for anyone who cares, apparently we’re getting another album in february. Not sure if this is certain, but i know they’ve been criticised for releasing it so early

  • i met itch two days agoooooooooooooooooooo ahahahshfhusei this;dfh sdgijs;d fucking loooveee himm i got sooo much love !!!! <33333333333333

  • @JadeeSienna231 On the 29th in hatfield? was so amazing!

  • @cfcolly just saw ur comment, yea in hatfield, truly as amazing!!x

  • if you don't smile once during the 3 minutes and 15 seconds of this song-then you're made of stone and, frankly, it's a miracle you managed to turn the computer on

  • @kowloon89 You sir, should re-write the entire works of Shakespeare and The Bible. Please.

  • @ifyoudontbelieveme ...I'm on it. I've already worked up a pretty good alternative ending for The Bible, get a load of this for a first draft '....and then he woke up' 

  • @kowloon89 [wipes a tear from his eye] ...that was beaufitful. Captivating even. [round of applause]

  • @kowloon89 I'm dancing like nobodies watching haha!

  • King blues are great and even better live :)

  • jamie t?

  • 2000 Trees & Leeds! love youuuuu lot :DDDD

  • They're playing at the lemon grove in Exeter on tuesday, Ima go see them... who wants to join me? :D ahh excited!!

  • Saw them last night, I've seen so many great bands, but these guys were just fucking amazing.

  • @C1owie At Manchester?

    This song gives me shivers every time, so it just made sense.

  • 8th November can't wait!

  • i saw itch in brighton once before i really knew the band. i sooo regret not saying hello

  • I fucking LOVE this guy.

    

  • I fucking LOVE this guy.

  • How about, instead of arguing about the meaning, we just listen to a brilliant song?

  • @callumt2595 Because the way the lyrics are written makes it obvious that there is more to the song than is obvious. To find out the meaning, we must discuss and debate. This is the case with all great works of art.

  • I Got Love....for this song

  • @Simalacrum re-listen to the song and really consider the lyrics, this song is very much political, and is NOT a ballad.

  • highlight of Leeds Fest, amazing <3

  • King Blues doing a non-political LOVE song?

    Well, theres a first for everything :P

  • saw them at leeds 2011. Fucking quality, 82 people still suckle from there mums tits!!

  • The chords sounds like God and satan by Biffy

  • I GOT LOVE I GOT SO MUCH LOVE

  • These guys were so insane at Reading.

  • One of my highlights at Leeds this year

  • @jordielovesyou1 I second that

  • Saw them at Reading, soooo good!

  • @callumt2595 Soo did I! they were amazing in reading but alot of crack heads in the crowd lol

  • so lets party in the supermarket..!! 

  • loved this band as their original incarnation - itch, jamie jazz, fruitbag. they aren't quite the same anymore. still good, just don't have the original charm. really glad i got to see these guys as the original lineup and loved their show. seeing them for the 3rd time this weekend as well. can't wait.

  • Like If You Wanna See The King Blues Become The Best Band In The World.

    You Suck And How Nooby Is That. Like If You Feel How I Feel.

  • @LastHostageMusic And your just a joker trying to get your post in the top most liked. Grow up, just enjoy the song. Also, if you truly do like these guys... you'll "Save the world, get the girl". That's my favourite one. ;)

  • 'coz I got love..I got so much LOVE...

  • 75 people haven't got love.

  • well I want to like them cuz the Specials like 'em but it's an ugly video with ugly people and those stupid tattoos on the hands are crapola. But the song is sorta nice. I wish them well.

  • Seems like a new version of The Levellers.

    Now before you jump on my head, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

    Just not quite as original as everyone seems to be making out.

    But then... you don't have to be original to be good.

  • Why is music such as Justin Beiber way more popular than this? They have meaningful lyrics, and emotion. They talk sense- they sould be so much more popular!

  • The fact that Justin Biebers 'Baby' has approximately 1040x more views than this video (540mil to 500,000) is why I despair of the current music Industry. How can such commecial crap capture the hearts of that many more people when songs like this are about. This has better lyrics, more emotion, incredible chord sequence and is just genius. Thank you for proper music King Blues.

  • @theonlybird Did you know they've brought another one of those crappy auto-tuned songs out like the stuff Rebecca Black does? I have no idea why.

  • I FUCKING LOVE THIS BAND !!!!

  • The King Blues are one of the only true anarchist punk bands left. Keep at it boys! Fuck Capitalism, WE ONLY GOT ONE LIFE LETS USE IT!

  • @BlakeC94 so you're completely English are you? Considering we've been invaded numerous times we're made up of many different cultures in our heritage; Dutch, Viking, Celtic, Scottish, Viking and French. Heres an interesting fact for you... Our Royal family - from German heritage! The full ENGLISH breakfast: German. Face it, part of BEING ENGLISH is being a mismatch of cultures, it's what makes us such an interesting and diverse people.

  • Why is it only counting my views :S

  • Comment removed

  • @BlakeC94, the only disgusting thing I see is your comment.

  • fucking disgusting seeing all the races n nationalities in england. england is for english

    what happened to the nationalism

    r8 nice song tho really spreads the message of anti-racism n humanity comin together but still england should be for ethnic englishmen & women only, aswell as other countries

    its not racism, its nationalism/patriotism

  • @BlakeC94 Ha! What a racist mong. You do realise that you're inbred don't you? You do realise that if you go back a generation or two your ancestors were shagging in-family? And that if you go back a few more generations your ancestors are probably German, Norwegian, French, Swedish and probably even Middle-Easern? Seriously mate read a book. It's disgusting that you think you have any ownership of our beautiful country just because you fell out of a vagina...

  • @iamtheboulder ill give it to you buddy, thats a very good response and i know exactly what you are talking about but i have traced my family roots 700 years into the past.

    I am German, from the westphalian region.

    Your right about the immigration that is constantly happening therefore, many people who claim to be ethnic english, german, french, etc, cannot always be be "pure english" or "pure german.

    However, before the world wars, Europe was a fine place

  • I love this song, and I'm so suprised that this has such few views STILL. I love these guys. I have an obsession with them :D

  • How the fuck didn't this go number 1
