For the people who say Belfast is not like this now, I know it is not, I made this video, the song is about Belfast of the past when John Deloreon had UK government grants to build the car, anyway, we don't see this on the news much anymore but it still happens, thankfully the majority of people on both sides have grown up and let peace talk, although they will always have a minority :)

I'm an american and i have to say belfast isn't like this at all. Even this yank is smart enough to know belfast aint this bad . This video is kinda not true init . I mean good video but kinda falls on the pisstake side. Just on wanker yanks opinion .

@brandoncipelle The video is not meant to represent Belfast of today, it is meant to represent the past and the troubles, the song/album itself is about John Delorean (inventor of the car in back to the future) and is about that era and how he managed to get the British government to back him with million and then blew it all :)

@brandoncipelle The video is set in the 1980s, how old were you in 1980 dude? This is not a piss take, remember as a yank you used to finance terrorism over there :)

Let's go to Belfast.

[Jarren202]

I'd rather have seen a video montage of DeLoreans, with footage of the building of the cars.

Also, you could have added video footage of Belfast landmarks, such as Harland & Wolff.

Everyone focuses so much on the fighting, but as a guy who spent his life in Belfast (I was born there in 1979 and moved to Canada last year) I can tell you that after seeing murders & bombing every night on the news I always welcome the more positive side of our wee city.

Great song, btw! :)

erm if the videos made up of actual video footage then how can it be a piss take? I'm 18 and scottish and don't pretend to know what the troubles were like but considering what the footballs like over here then I can believe that belfast was that bad.

[vunnie]

erm the video is made up of real footage (right?) so how can it be a piss take?? :/
