We've Got A Bigger Problem Now - THE DEAD KENNEDYS

[50calfilms]

This is exactly why I like DK. They actually sing about stuff that matters. Too many people today are too scared to write songs like this. Instead, its just the same garbage about partying over and over again. eeh. At least Jello still writes music

[Flynch23]

I got thrown out of school for wearing the t-shirt from this album...in 1992. I think the fact I went to a Catholic school will tell you a bit about that. They asked me to take it off and change it, so I did. To a Nazi Punks Fuck Off t-shirt. It would seem my school didn't like the Kennedys...

[SBwingman]

The jazz sequences and the "Shab-shabba-..." lead into a more energetic CA. uber alles; the grudging, sarcastic bridge and near-spoken word style bringing it back with a very melodic "two minute warning"...

I had the "DK" logo tattooed into my right shoulder when I was 17, I'm now 26. I couldn't ever possibly sustain enough brain damage to regret it. >=D

[InternalMind]

haha brilliant!

[DeeDirntDeeDirnt]

I have republican tendencies so I always used to say to my self "Reagan made jackass moves, but had balls to do so," Now I realize the errors in that thought. The truth is "Reagan was a weak jackass and his wife had balls." that's right folks. Ronald Reagan was queer.

[AmericanZapatista]

@DeeDirntDeeDirnt fucking homophobe! Fuck Reagan! Reagan was a racist!

[yofuzzybutt]

the best of punk, right here! Choke on it fools!

[yofuzzybutt]

lol...one dislike! Must be that lwall2000 dood! lol

[thatcanadaguy2]

i prefer the "Lost Tapes" version of this song, in this one Jello doesnt seem enthusiastic enough, until the second verse. I think he just sound more sinister on the Lost Tapes version.

[rvbvftc]

This has to be my favorite Dead Kennedy's song.

[diebytheblade1]

Guaranteed this was made by someone born during the Clinton administration.

[deadkennedys555]

@diebytheblade1 Guarantee would be wrong: Nixon actually ...

[diebytheblade1]

@deadkennedys555 oh my bad dude I thought this was a shitty junior high video project. keep fighting or whatever you do with your time and clip art.

[deadkennedys555]

@diebytheblade1 Does it suggest itself as "shitty junior high video" with 10,000 views and 1.2 million punk views on this channel ... ? Yes, obviously we fight. What do you do ...?

[Baconterrain]

@diebytheblade1

What, what,WHAT!!!!!!!

[KryoniKMessiah]

@diebytheblade1 Why yes, you HAVE to be born during the Clinton administration to not support a government that emphasizes making money over the needs of the people! I never knew! Money>>Altruism is obviously the viewpoint of a respectable human being. Obviously.

[mord3030]

Ronald Reagan disliked this.

[yofuzzybutt]

Wake up people! Listen to what the jello is telling you! Reagan was a sellout! They all are! Listen to the jello! We need to hunt us some owls! Hoot hoot ....bang!

[MST3Killa]

Don't agree with everything Jello or the dead kennedy's stood or currently stand for. still love their music. I don't see anything fashionable or fascist about disagreeing. Actually, i think that's the point. Think for yourself. I have to shake my head at the us vs them mentality so many people here have. I figured DK fans would appreciate choice but apparently many people still want everyone to think only like they do. Hypocrisy is rampant and distressing.

[dalevintage]

this frikken ROCKED!

[cheyannepiacenza]

45' owl statue! bohemian grove!

[CyberDruidtheModGod]

Ronnie sold crack to fund contras.

[Zlajapepe]

also spracht Jello

[LWall2000]

Oh well. Love the Kennedys despite Jello's ignoramus politics.Great music and sometimes hilarious commentary.Some of the comments about Reagan here are also amazingly stupid. So stupid it would take the next two days to prove why. Peace out .

[deadkennedys555]

@LWall2000 You faddishly "love" the DKs - they don't want your childish adoration - why don't you fuck off back to the Reagan/Bush 80's if you loved it so much, cock-sucker...

[wgilroy]

@deadkennedys555 Word!

[wgilroy]

@deadkennedys555 Word!

[helminatorx]

@LWall2000 i suppose you would have greater insight back when this song was written? you dispose the DK's as comical, suck a dick you ignoramus!!

[scheisshead]

@LWall2000 If the stupidity of a comment determines the amount of time it takes to disprove it, then it would take months for someone to show why simultaneously 'loving' the dead kennedys and appreciating Reagan is a jarring contradiction. Do you also listen to Slayer on the way to church?

[ThazuaBlackarrow]

@scheisshead Slayer is only anti-Christ for show.

Tom himself is Catholic.

[MKGellAxx]

@LWall2000 conservative facist

[Foxlover666]

@LWall2000 Reagan's body and soul are being destroyed in hell as the Christians would call it. What you think of him is fucking irrelevant.

[AlDarko]

@LWall2000 anybody that thinks Reagan was the greatest POTSA needs his head examined......please shut up, and go away there are plenty of Whitney Houston and Lionel Ritchie videos for your 80's viewing pleasure

[Somniloquist22]

@LWall2000 I hope you're enjoying the aftermath of Reaganomics.

[hardkoregamer999]

@LWall2000 GO FUCK YOURSELF BUDDY! YOUR THE TYPE WE DONT WANT IN PUNK!

[canuckleful]

@LWall2000 I have 2 days, elucidate.

[GhostManBrandonDDpre]

I doubt younger people can fathom living in a world where everyone you every knew could be burned to cinders in an unstoppable flash of light.

It's different than thinking about a terrorist attack or criminals trying to murder you.

It was everybody is going to die, from the flick of a switch and no one could stop it.

I remember reading about the kid who entered a catatonic state because the fear of impending nuclear war.

When I remember the 80's, I see Reagan.

Happy 100th? No sir.

[mussman717word]

As far as I'm concered, Dead Kennedys will always be the quintisential punk band. They had it all, the intensity, the musical innovation, the politics, they kept punk true to itself while infusing free jazz. How fucking brilliant! haa.

[deadkennedys555]

We thought kcjonze's self-removed comment was very insightful and wish he had not removed it. If he would like to re-up it, it would be enlightening to many...

[6116011]

hahahahahaaha! that nigga fell in the end!

[animemonarch888]

FUCK "PRESIDENT" RONALD REAGAN!!!!

[Mrvort]

I still can't believe people worship Ronald Reagan. He was an awful president.

[BonfaAerox]

THE BEST ANTIFA SONG.

[BonfaAerox]

un carroccio nazilegaiolo romano sorregge il liberticida BERLUSCONI.AGAINST FASCISM

[deathtohulutube]

Reagan was a facist

[rockufaler]

FUCKING INSANE SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!

[deadkennedys555]

A lot of us lived under Reagan and he was a goddamned fiend. Ignored and stigmatized the AIDS crisis at its beginnings when it could have been stopped, closing hospitals and dumping the mentally-ill and veterans onto the streets, restarting Mutually Assured Destruction - he was a lunatic - mark our words. And who was his vice-president? Bush Snr. So the game continues. Remember we were supplying Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan back under Reagan/Bush or do only we Discordians remember? Doublethink!

[wgilroy]

Word!

[ArkitectureAgression]

Well with the republicans controling the informatoin that goes to 90% of the public, people do forget real fast.

[Grauenstadt]

@deadkennedys555 I remember. We were at three minutes to nuclear midnight during that polesmoker's administration.

[deadkennedys555]

@Grauenstadt Damn right! That mutherfucker killed my childhood. I remember retreating to the countryside in the wake of Korea 007 passenger jet shootdown by the Sovs and we were THAT close to all frying on that occasion thanks to Reagan's public lunacy during the crisis. Similarly, I encourage people to track down the Reaganesque 'The Wargame' and 'The Day After' which pretty much finished off my childhood back then when I saw them...

[MrLazyeyz]

@deadkennedys555 i was there and i saw it all.my father is greek.he was working for an aid agency[see security guard] and he had a major issue. bcuz he was tagged as a communist sympathizer.i guess they forget he part where he was in prison in pakistan for 2 yrs...how cool is that?and why you may ask?bcuz the afghani government considered him a spy for u.s.a..deported him to pakistan where they instanly arrested him for[subversive talk]welcome to 2011.where shit aint changed that much.

[dalevintage]

@deadkennedys555 yea, i remember that nuke bomb scare...everything stopped...we all just waited, scared...i was 10.

[Flynch23]

@deadkennedys555 I think your Discordian comment may sail above the heads of most of the Youtube generation...but nice all the same!

[inuitt]

greaaaaaaaaaaaat!

thanks mate!
