[choudry1986]

Wow just had sausage casserole

[basicallyimbeth]

[Gage84]

I first heard this on Skins, awesome song.

[Pathira84]

To się nazywa FREEDOM !!!!!

[blessmeish]

Change the title to "How To Get High Without Drugs"

[noddy6413]

[manmuse127]

Brilliant!

[thingy15able]

yeah skins is gay

[MsBitch561]

@thingy15able sure it is, but thats why we love it.

[rubbersandro]

I heard this on PESEDIT world cup patch o.O

WTF is Skins?

[iaralillylynosjohn]

This is great!

[Skullmanone]

Class act this, good as "Stunde Null" rock on the power

[dinkeldal]

prachtige song die altijd in je blijft 

[Blackestkidyounknow]

This song was on skins? How did I miss this.. =o

[freaker000000001]

I haven't seen it much personally, but I find a lot of the songs (of this kind) that I listen to on youtube are done on skins. That being said, I would say that the the music coordinator of skins and I have similar taste, and that's fine by me.

[ayseisonfire]

Skins? who cares about Skins? what the fuck is skins, compared to this music?

[hunted000]

NAJLEPSZA MUZA NA SWIECIE

[laurennbbz]

Oh, shut up whining and arguing.

Just chill out and enjoy the fucking music.

[JamesMetcalfe100]

Four years on and this still gets to me, I love this song, I love this video and I LOVE BSP, stil one of the best underrated bands around!! cannot understand why they are never glorified :(

[cjprior88]

thumbs up if u dont care how u got here u just like the music.

[theroobydooby]

im 12 and im going to my first music festival, shoul i go see these or not?, cus there playing. many thanks for advice :D

[BUDGETFREE]

I saw these guys live at the Heineken Open'er, because it was POURING rain out and so my friend and I sought refuge under the tent stage before Cut Copy's set. Totally happy it ended up like that because these guys put on a really fun live show! :)

[daveydaveb]

I've seen British Sea Power five times from open festivals to packed social clubs and each one is an experience. After one gig in Leeds I bumped into a fellow fan who had stolen a branch from the stage and I'm still jealous of him to this day. At a festival I was walking through the crowd, donning my BSP T-shirt proudly, and actually passed Yan! He gave me a simple nod and just carried on. I was too stunned to speak! Waving Flags is awesome live but my favourite remains Blackout.

[Verseis]

i dont give a fuck what brought you here, i want the top comment to be a critique or interesting point rather than an origins argument

[WhatJessicaDidNext]

literally can't escape the feeling that this song eludes. everytime i hear it, my mind is blown.

[vladx22]

@WhatJessicaDidNext *exudes

[TheJoshdines]

Amazing show at Leefest... Top Notch



[MsDangerpants]

I read about them in NME a year or two ago and started listening. Finally got to see them in Little Rock, Arkansas a few months ago. I nearly cried when they played this. I was pretty drunk so that probably lended itself to the near-tears. Great show regardless.:)

[matehim]

i did not know anything about them. and i saw them on sziget festivals lineup. and now im waiting for the show :)

[17Sp33dy17]

59 people don`t like to wave their flags

[SteamAlchemist]

That it this tune, which my mother was looking for ages!

[Thebritishgent]

Pardon my ignorance but what flag exactly are they singing of waving?

ManyThanks.

[killdeathcuntrokstar]

i like how you have to have heard something somewhere other than a television show to TRULY like it, to TRULY be a fan, like your appreciation of music is somehow lessened because people were shown on a screen with the song playing in the background and thats where you first heard it. everyone finds music somehow, stop being such fucking snobby little bitches about everything. if they heard it on skins or fucking dora the explorer it doesn't matter, it's a good song

[daftrhetoric]

@killdeathcuntrokstar Red is light in the lowest frequency of the visible spectrum, but it's also a symbol for populist resolve.

The identity of an object is dependent upon characteristics of the interpretive agent. The context in which one discovers something is also the context in which they qualify, identify, and recognize it.Contention of object identity is the essence of property dispute.

It's best to resolve all facets into cohesive concepts, but discretion of perspective can't be ignored.

[Bubbiea]

@killdeathcuntrokstar yea but its annoying when they announce it like they want a fucking medal or something

[iliasemmanuil]

to understand every british sea power song.. hmm thats impossible :)

[lemongrapesfilms]

thumbs up if you don't give a shit about where you found BSP and just appreciate the fucking beautiful music!

[richimax]

cant wait to see them headlining LeeFest in August

[MrJapan72]

Thanks for Your show on The Opener Festival of Gdynia

[MrMadness87]

@NoNamedOoze well fuck off and listen to lady gaga you bastard

[rikfru]

SKINS

[thetempesttom]

If you dont like the music. Do this :

1)Dont comment on the video

2)Dont listen to this music.

Simple really.

[MrFixero]

This music is amazing !

[rahree]

We're only here for a while and it's all a joke. So, if you're of legal drinking age and get paid minimum wage, welcome here and take it easy.

[akademiadziecka]

mendy:P

[transonicbuoy1]

If you YTube "HMS Repulse" there is the superb voiceover man announcing "British Sea Power".

[Tetramastbad]

This band go on about taking mushrooms during recording sessions.Must have got them from Tescos.Bland stadium rubbish.Waving Flags indeed.They wish.

[kovelev]

@Tetramastbad umad bro?

[transonicbuoy1]

Echo and the Bunnymen also did this type of thing, 30 years ago. But much, much better. At least we have HMS Bulwark and Albion.

[Tetramastbad]

@transonicbuoy1 Agreed.What a band the Bunnymen were in their prime.BSP don't come near.

[Sixfeetunderthesky]

Fucking awesome!!

[Schaedre]

Santa maria

[transonicbuoy1]

HM`s deep ships slide into the oceans. Anew. For economic and democratic purposes. Usually embarked with Royal Marine Commandos. God save the Queen.

[boteetoo]

SZIGET FESTIVAL 2011

[CeProstie]

this reminds me so much of skins

[Tetramastbad]

I read about this band in Record Collector mag;mentioned Joe Meek,sounded interesting.

Now that I've heard them? The Lotus Eaters and Icicle Works did this sort of thing 30 years ago.But better.

[jackjude]

@Tetramastbad ...I like both bands you mentioned. Doesn't bother me that this band bears some resemblance to their sound. Life is so much enjoyable without a generational axe to grind.

[Tsukilla]

is very beautiful

[MrrANDOM34]

From the U.S., hoping for immigration reform. Cheers, and keep on waving flags.

[screemimi]

OMG. how come this song has been out for like three years and i've never heard it ?!?!?!?! khkokjhdslha;s. thankyou skins i am in love <3

[TheEureka41]

Skins has the best taste in music

[Adoreyoo]

Ugh I want every song from Skins!!!

[Adoreyoo]

This song is the shit!

[hiicantthinkofanamee]

So welcome in.

[chettonex]

makes me remember morrisey

[ECTOPLASTA]

estos tios son buenos con cojones y esta canción mi himnoooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooo

[achickensandwich]

Verse sounds bizarrely similar to The Postal Service's Such Great Heights... the band name similarity is also a coincidence.

[xxxslayerxxx666]

@achickensandwich i can understand how it SOUND similar around the beginning, but how on earth does the name sound anything like the postal service?!

[achickensandwich]

@xxxslayerxxx666 Yeh I can't remember what I was talking about...

[postpunkowy]

greetings from Poland :) ...today waving flags

[pOpTarTx18]

hahahahahahahahahahahahaahahah­ahahahahahahahahah my favorite songgg..jk this sucks..

[patryk100414]

pes 2011 world cup edition took me here !

[raptoracid94]

Yeah people from skins, how dare you like a song?

[raptoracid94]

Yeah people from skins, how dare you like a song? Disgraceful.

[believemenatalie]

How can more than fifty people dislike this? I am so pissed off right now.

[iamste]

Thumbs up I you can enjoy a great song by a great band without coming off as a complete wanker because "you heard them

before they had a song on TV".

Grow up, guys.

Glad they've gotten the much deserved exposure from having a song on Skins.

[symphonythree]

skins go fuck, this is a great song, the band needs all the attention it gets, british sea power is a religion in some quarters

[satinemalfoy]

Which episode and part was this song in Skins?

[asdfenwick]

a friend told me about these guys not skins. seriously skins is wank now

[batblood1]

fuck off! Im HERE FOR SKINS SKINS SKINS!!!!!!! WANKERS!

[itstinaYO]

I don't get what the big deal is. So people heard this song on Skins, who cares? It's good for the band, people get to hear their music.

[prettylittleliarww]

kyle really deserves at least his own radio channel : )

[Shermanicus]

Man I feel awesome because I don't even watch skins

[ItsGottabeDub]

@Shermanicus Right? It's cool to be one of those people that didn't come across great music from a T.V. show.



[Shermanicus]

@ItsGottabeDub hell yeah brotha

[santoriniification]

thumbs up if your music culture brought you here and not SKINS

[RDBeatnik]

@santoriniification What the fuck is Skins?

[JohnwiththeMustaches]

@RDBeatnik let me google it 4 ya.or waht?

[Bieji]

@santoriniification My mom brought me here because she loves this band :P

[Smallville357]

@santoriniification no...my dashboard stickies did :) haha

[ZeFatRussian]

@santoriniification what the fuck does it matter how you got here?

[lunitablackful]

@santoriniification but then skins :3

[Sasse90]

@santoriniification

Can people like you just shut up... it's getting annoying :P

[K4m1k423K1d]

@santoriniification wtf is SKINS?

[o0FarrenFoxx0o]

i came here from the latitude line-up, this was on skins, oh god, take away some street cred for that, but still, a good ass song!

[JoeyKayeThomas]

Saw them supporting the Manic Street Preachers :) XD

[jaredisawsome007]

everyone needs to shut up about skins

[StrangerToEarth]

@jaredisawsome007 Everyone needs to shut up about Skins WHO HASN'T SEEN IT.

[liamsnorthstar]

Such an amazing song...thank you.

[watchingmind]

Can't wait to see these guys in Berlin in october.

[chexycat]

@watchingmind Really are they in Berlin :) I am definatley going to have to be there!

[watchingmind]

@chexycat

10. October in Lido Club Berlin.

[suicacrobatdude]

NERDS...

[chuuranger]

52 people deserve a waving flag up their ass

[dddomin2]

kyle lynd is a god.

O__O

[dekyl935]

in which skins' episode is this song?

[seanwilliamdeslands]

@dekyl935 the first episode.

[mrmarkymark77]

I thought this was about the navy.

[Thisbloodypave]

@mrmarkymark77 and me

[msmistreat]

There's nothing wrong with Skins bringing people here. Music is for everyone, we should be pleased that more can access incredible music. After all, isn't that the point of music? Much love.

[Mcshoot]

hello skins posers mainstream media whores

[xclaireyz]

@Mcshoot so true

[451harri]

@Mcshoot Yeah, what a bunch of posers. They're clearly less important than you. why, if British Sea Power knew they were gaining a load of new fans through exposure from a popular TV show, they'd be so ungrateful, wouldn't they?

[Chacha5678]

best song from the episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheC0US]

saw British Sea Power last night they were amazing and so is this song :)

[jimm0729]

5 pages of "SKINS BROUGHT ME HERE HURHURHUR". Man, those Skins fans sure are annoying, aren't they.

[Tsukiumiyuri]

@jimm0729 No, you are.

Jesus Christ, people can say whatever they fucking please without cunts like you taking the piss.

[askl23]

The flag in the video keeps reminding me of Wire's "Pink Flag".

[GoldhunterUK]

Genius, love this.

[Wizardsixr]

JUST WAVE THOSE FLAGS BSP JUST SO COOL.

[ECTOPLASTA]

hace sólo una semana que los conozco y no puedo escuchar otra cosa, muy buena banda

[OhMaahi]

4skins!

[Ayrtabk]

good music

[shuddupclaire]

this song really made the scene :)

[durkadurkas]

lovely scene by the pool when this came on

[mrsdougie01]

Skins brought me here

[TrickyJumba]

RELAX SAYS FRANKIE

[daron24a]

Heard this on Skins season 5 - nice one!.. Though the song is good without Skins, but i probably never have come across it if not for skins.. so thanks for introducing me! :)

[KTrox682]

Seen them live twice now but still sounded good on Skins! :)

[kat2793]

OMG, I love this song, so much. I could listen to it for hours!

[KypHeM]

OMG skins went bad after first season wake up kids.

[jammyd33]

skins almost ruined this beautiful band for me

[jerredk14]

British Sea Power are like one of the best of their kind.

[julio7587]

hi man skins 5 nice man

[cranmister07]

Skins, you never let me down with your music :)

[Sh1r3l]

I'm gonna be totally honest i haven't heard about British Sea Power before watch skins 5x01 but thank's god they choose this song so now i can hear them!

[princessdilan1]

Stop talking shit about Skins, they had to re-cast it's been years since the last time we saw the Skins cast. You haven't even given a chance yet, it's only been one episode. Get a life and give stuff a chance, and so what if half of us came here from Skins, nothing's gunna change by you saying "I knew this song before Skins, blah blah blah."

[spazabarri]

skins fans should check out the decline of British Sea Power definitely their best album! :)

[casablancas49]

SKINS !!!!! YEAHHHHH

[craigthered]

Ive been a fan for years, glad to see them get some exposure not sure the skins lot will like the old stuff tho

[MaurMusic77]

the skins music guy is a fuckin genius who deserves to be a millionaire and own a ferrari.

best soundtrack for an ep ever. except for maybe glamorous, but im willing to ignore that small fact.

[just0watch0this]

@MaurMusic77 lolz actually he actually commented that in his selections for this ep, he said something like needing a song for a shitty club scene that Minni would like something like that. 

[stellamilanese13]

@MaurMusic77 On the Skins website he apologized for Glamorous, he said they needed a song that would be played in the trashy kind of club Mini would go to, so it's even easier to ignore, especially since he simultaneously insulted Mini :)

[bloodynessyzabini]

@MaurMusic77 Fergie - Glamorous

"Right. First off, apologies for this. We needed a tune which would be played in a sh1tty club where the likes of Mini would be well up for getting low. Although, I do feel this is the perfect opportunity to get something off my chest (drum roll…) I think this is an absolute tune. I can’t help it. Don’t judge me." Kyle Lynd

[thinandproudofit2]

@MaurMusic77 no the best was "wild world " from season 1

[jackjude]

@MaurMusic77 a millionaire for being an adequate indie dj? I'll have some of that!

[trelabela]

i heard that's song much earlier than new season skins, this is popular band in Poland, and i like it and i like Skins :)

[pinoneertothefall]

Fuck skins

[xclaireyz]

skins brought me here aswell, even though the new skins is complete shit, great music.

[bundla100]

skins introduced me to this song as it did to glasvegas who turned out to be my best album i bought in the last 2 years,still miss cassie from skins tho

[whateffbitch90]

SO uhhh im going to have to say SKINS BROUGHT ME HERE :)

[riberyseven7]

Skins brought me here. :)

[smallbritishman]

This sng made Skins so much bettter. :)

[cjprior88]

i like this tune

[stachiano]

A few these songs on this channel have been used on Skins
