  • This song was used for a phone advert in the U.K on TV and thats how I got here. Listened to the Blink182 version as well but like the rawness of this version.The guy doesnt try too hard and a typical cockney - 'just cant be bothered' attitude and the fact he is in his pyjamas makes it sound pretty cool : ) LOL !

    Also he seems to have written this song from personal experience in 'space travel in my blood' 'long journeys' and so on.this is all about two people tripping I suppose........

  • obviously blink was inspired enough by these guys and this song to remake it, they see their musical genius, and yes blinks version is what alot of people my age have heard first, but this was made first, and either way i wouldnt be hear if it wasnt for the remake, and now i found another great band, am i wrong?

  • the same hat with i fought the law, the modern bands perform it better tnah the oldes

  • Blink 182!?!? Are you silly-ass children joking? Your taste in music is infantile and absolutely fucking pathetic!

  • Blink-182 plays this better.

  • Who the fuck are Blink 182 anyway?

  • bloody excellent well done connected 365.

  • drugs travels in your blood.

  • Rocking!!

    Cool!!

    Only Ones Rule

  • i am 18 years listen to hiphop but i like this.

  • @AirMaroc

    Then your not as gay as your 18 year old friends but nethertheless your still very gay

  • @jd666ify nje ekkoe lekkoe

  • Peter Perrett looks like a 55 year old Danny Kendall off of Grange Hill LOL

    "Flippin eck tucker, it was them nut jobs"......

  • He looks like Izzy Stradlin.

  • The Only Ones

  • FUCK IT!

    This is so good shit , man!

    I swear there´s nothing sicker on earth than to listen to this song, chill out with ya dudes an pop you´re fucking skateboard !! : D

  • what a great track,,,,my favorita 3 minutes of hommage to smak.....petes on another planet all right ,,,,,,,love top post fellah

  • WAHAHAH another heroin another planet,, it looks like they take heroin

  • blink 182 is the original of this right?

  • @trendyster HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Blink 182 is the original of this? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. You are so ridiculous

  • @xVivaLaSteven well i dont know? im not joking,, im asking,

  • @trendyster I love you, but this clearly says 1996

  • @trendyster no they're not.. this band is

  • @trendyster Considering The Only Ones first released it in 1978, and the members of Blink 182 were 6, 3 and 3 years old at the time; I think it is safe to say that Blink 182 are not the original 'of this'!

  • WTF?

  • Who the hell calls any singer crappy? anyway this guy in my opinion has the best voice even though Blink is one of my favroite bands this guy has a better voice for this song, sorry for two comments in a row.

  • @IAC3I

    I used to love Blink 182. And then "Blink 182" the album happened. Some bands should never grow up.

    Oh well-the one good thing they did as "adults" was to record a version of this song. Even though that kind of pissed me off cause now people think they wrote it. Now everytime my band covers this we have to have a disclaimer beforehand where we say:" If you think this song was written by Blink 182 please kill yourself. "

    Mark sings it too high anyway.Gotta be whinier and deeper.

  • @IAC3I These guys made this song.

  • I love Blink 182 but this guy has got the voice. and this is just as amazing. 

  • blink 182 forever and ever. punk!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • awesome.

  • This has been a total punk vs rock fight.

  • The only thing that makes this better than any other version is just that voice... nothing can come close

  • Well, this is quite good.

  • What. A. Voice

  • wahooooo

    

  • they have that awesome way to sing. and the epic guitar playing!

  • sorry i love blink but their version is poor pop punk pish. the only ones version on record is timeless.

  • this is the gayist thing since tight sparkle pants

  • @theEPICdoor you must be a fat Black ops freak that listen to miley cyrus all day.

  • @nowaytooslow nope im a skinny,sk8 boarding freak,that listens too blink 182 all day ass wipe!!!!!!! :D

  • the best sir!!

  • @alivecheese I'm an old bastard to & prefer the Only Ones version more than Blink 182 but then that's just an opinion. It's good to see you have a different one to me cause without difference the world would never progress & it'd be a boring hole!... Remember opinions are like assholes everbody has one!!

  • you gotta admit guys the singer is kinda crappy but the music itself is a brilliant twist on the original

  • @motomallen dude shut up man i said i was sorry! So what i like blink-182's version better fuckin deal with it!

  • is she a guy or girl?

  • i only searched this song because i wanted to hear the original of the blink cover. the old version sucks so bad i can't even listen to the whole thing. it sounds like my grandma is singing... old people are gay

  • @INDIANWR85 i really hope your fucking joking

  • @INDIANWR85 I thought that too the first time... but listen to it in half a year, and maybe it'll have changed... now this is by far my favourite version and admit this has one of the awesomest guitar solo's ever played....

  • @INDIANWR85 lets hope you stay the same age for ever and ever then

  • @INDIANWR85 oh by the way I'm old but most definately heterosexual

  • It's a shame that YouTube has a dislike button , there mustn't be such a thing , If you don't like the song fuck off and search something else ! thx

  • Gosh guys was just kidding about the comment that i didn't like it. It's cool i like both versions. Just did it to see how many hate comments i'd get

  • This is the REAL DEAL. Watch a few lame YouTube covers--then come on back to this. You can't substitute this sound--even with this slightly different arrangement, you hear the essential elements of the tune shining through--especially that guitar lead, fairly spot-on reading there, mates. Yeah!

  • Yes blink 182s version probably would have sounded better if only they could have got them cocks out of their mouths so they could have sung it proper like.Psuedo punk wankers

  • @guitar2231 haaa haaaa, you know nothing

  • @guitar2231 are you mental or just suffering from a really low IQ ???

  • PERFECT

    

  • Great song musically but the singing is unbelievably awful.

  • @MolemanG1 I think his voice fits well with the song, its better than most pop stars now days who auto tune it :P

  • This sounds like a cat being strangled.

  • @Fuckthetrends80 only the type of person that would strangle a cat would say that, dicktard

  • @stevycurley892

    y u mad tho?

  • @Fuckthetrends80 its a great song, and "a badger being raped" would have been much funnier

  • Sorry Youtube i broke your replay button

  • THIS GUY'S A FUCKING IDIOT.

  • Another heroin another planet.

  • @wongster41 why the impulse to criticize what you cannot ever understand mate? Ask yerself.......................­...

    amazing video.

  • @ph2tay you do realize this song is about heroin right?

  • @wongster41  And?

  • @ph2tay i'm not sure what point you're trying to make here.

  • @wongster41

     Aha!

  • @ph2tay I bet even you don't even know what point you're trying to make.

  • @wongster41

    aha!

  • @wongster41 Another Pill Another Planet :P

  • como se llama este grupo????

  • como se llama este grupo?

  • oh so fucking good!

  • Comment removed

  • I will never get over how great this is. I can't get over how great this is.

  • screw this,.. blink rocks so mouch harder!

  • pre -wig days?

  • shite

  • any experienced drummers have any idea of a ride cymbal that would have a bell sound like at  :41 ?

  • ahhhh love this songgg

    check out my coverrr

    peace

  • Also sad that you have no sense of humour. ;)

  • "this is original version", blah blah... so what?

    Blink's is 116 times better ^^

  • @palmitzaa What I personally like most about modern covers is that they use better equipment and usually show true potential of the originals - still, thumbs up for the originals at least because they were here first.

    The reason why people bash Blink is they think they're not punk. And I have to admit that, because punk is not just music - it's a state of mind. Maybe they have that, but they've all got rich houses and stuff. It's not bad, but I don't see them ranting against evil of the world.

  • thank you for load it .

  • The Only One's did it first and IMHO better but hey, often it's who you're familiar with that you prefer. We can all agree on one thing - this is a great song. Aren't we lucky such genius exists? Just fan-fucking-tastic music!

  • Pop at it's best. Energetic, curiously edgey yet unashamedly commercial. The Only Ones delivered on so many levels. This is one of my favorite songs of all times and always leaves me feeling very happy. Cheers.

  • How the fuck are all the members still alive? They were all heroin junkies. I mean its a miracle really.

  • my favorite song

  • this is fucking bad - the voice is damn sucking, man!

  • that ist fucking bad - the voice, man. :(

  • what the hell.. this is not pop its so much guitar works man

    well.. im pretty fucking confused

  • when they push my dead butt into the oven i want this song playing....perrets ode to smak addiction,,, a lesson in melancholy, despair, and redemption , the best pop song ever written.

  • Actually, I thought this was the original song of Blink. But, I prefer the older version coz this is punk to core.

  • i can play this song

  • wow, I had no idea that Blink 182 covered this... what's wrong with covering a great song?

  • If you were wondering where Green Day stole the progression for "Basket Case" look no further...Blink 182 aint fit to lick the sweat off my dog's balls...

  • i luv junkie rock

  • Fuck Babyshambles or Libertines, this is the real trip !

  • he sounds like a cross between Kenneth Williams and Donald Duck

  • whaat the fuuck?...

  • funny that the obnoxious, pompous, self righteous cuntish shitbag that is Richard Littlejohn would have someone such as Peter Perrett on his show

  • One of my favorite music videos.

  • I agree, best song EVER! makes me wanna dance and jump and FLY!!!

  • fuck it-as years pass by all the "punks" are selling out themselves,the biggest example is Rotten who has become a cocky ignorant prick.maybe .Perrett isnt and wasnt part of the punk movement,but he stays fuckin true more than everyone.he is a fuckin legend!!!

  • @mariosthunders Anyone who's says John Lydon is crap dosen't know shit !

    The latest PiL tour was absolutely fantastic .

    If he's a prick well ... rightly so ... the masses know less than shit !!

    I guess that would include you .

  • @stevemangler1

    i would say the exact opposite my friend..you see everyday poser 11 year old kids wearing Sex Pistols tshirts who really dont know a shit bout rock/metal but they know the Pistols because of the commercial hype they were always receiving until nowdays..okay,they copied the Dolls,they copied Johnny Thunders and suddenly with one album they gave birth to punk...they were mr.Mclaren's product to advertise his shop(yeahh,thats how the Pistols begun their "carreer")nothin more..

  • @stevemangler1

    thats how things were historically recorded and i think you have to know somethin more than the basics to call someone ignorant ma friend steve...

  • Anything except the Replacements are all fucking stupid fag bullshit. Fuck you guys.  Obviously, you haven't got your ass kicked enough.

  • top tune,

    

  • from 96

  • BLINK IS SO FUCKING 1100000 times better!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I'm glad I've lived long enough that gems such as this are so easily within reach of the average person.

    Thanks for posting it.

  • This is a good song, Blink 182 is a good band, how can i say such different things in one sentence? omg?! Quit hating on blink cuz theres nothing to hate on. Started out punk, they became better musicians and music writers, they gained popularity, you wish you could too. People say blink is "mainstream", but dont realize that its cali-skater-music, that came out around the time skating became rapidly more popular by the day, it was inevitable, just the right time and place for blink

  • Qué rabia me da que una canción tan fantástica resulte ser un himno a la heroína.

  • @conchadecastilla Tal vez precisamente por eso sea fantástica ;-)

  • yo amo esta rolla!!vamos por mas !!!!

  • lol what happened to these guys?? i luv this song

  • Never knew there was a Blink 182 cover of this old masterpiece. Now I know and my life hasn't changed at all as I already knew Blink are correct but soul-less rock musicians (let's not mention punk, please). Their version has no guts and no soul. It's well polished, radio-friendly and sounds like marmalade. at least it shows they have some taste when it comes to listening habits...

    And now I'm ready for an avalanche of insults. :)

  • How can anyone with ears think Blink 182 are better?These guys WROTE THIS SONG!!!!!He lived this shit,not borrowed it 'cause you can't think of any more packaged,mallternative songs to sell to American Idol watchers!!IDIOTS!!!This is REAL!!!Blink 182 are FAAAAAAKE!!!!!Duh!!!!This is coming from an American too.Teeny bopper wanna be's.I guess they don't know any better.

  • @SHOEGAZEFAN73 you can't teach kids anything bro. i'm pretty sure the people that think the 182 band's cover is better are the same kids with the 'my balls are so small i can fit in these' tight jeans and have their hair chopped over to one side. personally i prefer the Replacements' version but that's only because in my eyes the Replacements are god.

  • @yamon98 Oh yeah mate,I know it.Paul is a God !

  • well you should apologize, coz you are talking shite. The humour sarcasm and tradgedy conveyed here through the singing and instrumentation cannot be matched in any way by a bunch of yankee teenie boppers dogshit whine for "rebelious" children", so what it odesnt sound like its recorded in a digital vacuum, this is art ffs, Original with heart and meaning. Go listen to your bullshit, pointless, vaugely disdainful mainstream kids tunes. GTFO proper bands videos touting that shit Blink 18.. who?

  • sorry guys but the Blink 182 Version is way better :D

  • @Gitarrenfreak1000 There was life before Blink 182 et al...

  • @TheSjspen I know but my personal opinion is that the Blink 182 version is better ;)

    This is only MY opinion ! :)

  • Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their opinion... Cannot argue!

  • sorry but the blink 182 version sucks thats real punk my son :-D

    and no emo pop punk fuck :-D

  • ok I have to explain ONE thing to you. You can not compare emo and pop punk. That are two different genres, two different styles ;-)

  • they arent punk. they are new-wave. it would be better if you just stopped talking.

  • Not even close. The Only Ones version (the original) is one of the greatest high energy power pop bits in rock & roll histrory. I discovered this song when I bought the LP That Summer in like 1980. The New Wave/Punk movement was in high gear. Great guitar work there.

  • No.

  • Simply briliant, saw them in 2008 at the Koko club, this song is just pure magic and always brings a lump to my throat.

    thanks for uploading

  • Another Dwarf, Another Midget

  • The keyboard player is eminently spankable, methinks.

  • why does he sound like a chipmunk

  • PETER PERRETT and all members of THE ONLY ONES were interviewed recently in Belgium! Listen to this here on our channel, mixed with live music and new catchy songs!

    Lili Sygta

  • I love this song despite the fact that I was unaware the Blink 182 did a cover of it. In fact, I loved this song even before there was such a thing as a Blink 182.

    Just saying . . .

    ;-P

  • exactly was i was thinkin

  • This is the best pop song in the whole world.................My fav band is the smiths but this is the track that just does IT!!!!!!!!!!! Even if it didnt make the top 40, SO WHAT!!! Should av been number one in every country in the world for a month..Narrrr make that a year!! Love it......!!

  • @moonuk Check out 'Get Some Action' from 'The Flamin' Groovies'. I'm sure you'll love it. I don't know if it's on Youtube. Maybe you know it anyway.

  • @123Scears123: "Shake Some Action"?

  • @labronk I stand corrected sir!  Thanks!

  • @123Scears123: I'm a lady!

  • @labronk Blimey! Two cock ups! Sorry! "Madam! I stand corrected! "

  • @labronk yeah the flaming groovies....great band.

  • @moonuk Agreed!! My band is The Cure, but you're right, this is THE song!!

  • fakin awesome this song is!!!!!! LOL I love it!

  • punk is supposed to be snotty and real not over produced crap

  • who said that there is just 1 way to make punk?

    i like this shit..

  • I like this song because its snotty and real, unlike the over produced blink version. I think you misunderstood my comment :)

  • how the fuck can the ORIGINAL SONG be shit?

  • Blink can go suck my crusty brown donut

    Pete Perret for God

  • Comment removed

  • @pw342 you and you 18 people (over 1 year) can suck it. this is shit. blinks version made the song decent.

  • @boysieboy93 LOL Fuck off, Blink's is good, but The Only Ones shit all over it.

  • @pw342 and can come suck mine bitch. blink rules

  • @Docas633

    I forgive all you kids for thinking that blink make good music.

    its sad for you that you never saw any of the real greats.

  • @pw342 it's sad that a supposed adult as you're trying to show us you are, doesn't respect other opinions and other's taste in music. it's all about influence of our life backgrounds and our personal taste. i'm pretty sure this is a good band and i'm really sad that people like you can't respect things they don't like and people who like those things

  • @Docas633 The context/background where you've heard songs for the first time is very important, as for me i've heard it in a skateboarding video and i instantly liked it. Sadly there are people who think that everything what they don't like is sucks and that is okay but they should keep their opinion for themselvers.

  • @Julien1345 you shouldn't be telling that to me, but i couldn't agree more. that was some wise comment

  • @pw342 It's sad for anyone who doesnt get to see blink.

  • @dillanhimself45

    Who cares what a bunch of spotty teenagers think about music anyway?

    Go back to your mommy and listen to your Justin Bieber CD and everything will be alright.

  • @pw342 I'm 14 and I've been listenin' to this song for 5 years :P

  • @pw342

    yessss!

  • and that tom guy can? lol..and the other guy cant any more either.

    And this guy writes better songs than them...so...

  • This performance is clearly mimed. But this song is clearly a classic. Fuck Blink 1-8-2. The Only Ones FTW!

  • you can suck dick good sir
