The perfect ska song to cover is Johnny Too Bad by The Slickers. I know other people performed it including the legend Jimmy Cliff but for a first time experience my vote goes to the Slickers.

I love it all, but especially when the "crossbreeding" between Jamaican and British came. Stomp! :) The band Bad Manners is right there with "Lip up fatty". But there are more, and some where to come later. Reel big fish is nice (they play a lot of covers in Ska-mode) and of course Madness and of course The Toasters (especially "Don´t let the bastards get you down"). Happy music, makes me feel fine and that I can give most of the world the finger! :D

Ska det vara SKA? (ja, det ska vara ska)
"We need a Ska day" "You mean a spa day?" "I absolutely do not"
Ska is a combination of jazz, r and b, punk, reggae
Realization of others' suffering, being grateful you haven't experienced it yet, compassion, anxiety... Such a great song. 💓

Wise interpretation of the song. I hope you’re doing well this fine crisp cool morning mam. Or you’re at least hangin’ tough 🤙🏽
Apart from the chorus, this part has always stuck with me: 'I'm not a coward, I've just never been tested I'd like to think that if I was I would pass Look at the tested and think "There but for the grace go I" Might be a coward, I'm afraid of what I might find out'
This song is a lot. Like in a good way. Nobody is ready the first time how intense it gets when a literal dozen dudes just start singing/playing their heart out!
One guy never plays an instrument, maybe a tambourine occasionly, and dances around. That was his job.

Exactly! You start to smile when you hear a Bosstones song!!
Being from the 90's this was my wife and I favorite band. We saw them live in concert more than 40 times over their career. More Mighty Might Bosstones music please!!! Any song song the Bosstones is great to react to. 😊❤

I feel the same way but about 311. Still love the Bosstones though. I missed the eighties when I was growing up in the nineties when I grew up. Whatever is happening now we have strayed so far from our roots.
I enjoyed this song merrily as a youth and cry nearly every time hearing it as an adult. Great song

So many great ska bands out there. Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Reel Big Fish, Planet Smashers, No Doubt, Goldfinger, Rx Bandits, Save Ferris, Dance Hall Crashers, just the ones I can name off the top of my head.

That was the 90's... the alternative genre was the greatest genre because it included a bit of everything. The same radio station would follow it with Tool... then play Pearl Jam.... the 90's truly were the last great hoorah in music. Other than a few bands... it's been downhill since.

hell yeah that was the best era. Not because I'm a fellow gen x trying to look down on other generations but the music was very diverse and different but it was all similar.
Such a great clean tune. As a dad I appreciate the music I can listen to with my kids!
I was a teenager in the 90's in a burb of Boston. This was on WFNX all the time! Very fun to cruise around and sing along with. A lot of great local Boston bands from that era. Glad you liked it!

In the 90's when the movie "Swingers" came out, a massive swing dance craze hit all the bars and clubs. The Bosstones were king.
love ska. anything with happy lyrics and sad music, or happy music with sad lyrics, it tricks me into liking it.

The Boss tones Where Did You Go is my favorite song by them!
The Bosstones are a great band, I've seen them live a couple of times and their shows are SUPER fun.
How have you not even accidentally heard this song. Mi hermano en cristo.. The Interrupters, Reel Big Fish, the list goes on my friend. Welcome 🎉
This band pretty much models themselves on probably the best and most significant band in this genre is a band called Madness.
Man that takes me back, I haven't heard this one in a while. 🎉 Polo you had a small smile the entire song 😊
Amazing band and song! Live these guys
One of the most memorable concerts I’ve seen back in the day. They opened for Primus. They even did a punk rock wedding. That’s were you pull a hot girl out of the crowd, and the singer and the girl both say I love you and then run full tilt into the audience of the stage. Awesome.
Saw these guys in bozeman, mt when they were poppin..must have been 97 or so. One of the best live shows i ever saw. 🔥🔥🔥
I was in Boston in the '90s and this song - and ska in general - was everywhere.
90s ska was hella fun. If you're really feeling horns, check out Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, they had a sound so powerful, it could turn goat piss into gasoline. (also the band played on Amy Winehouse's debut)
GREAT SONG.......... TY 4 THEE RE-ACTION PEACE
I love this song because it takes me back to 1997 when I was 20, and when I became a born-again Christian. It has been a good 26 years!

Great track, huh? Man, radio in the 90's was something else, so many alternative hits, everything felt different and the amount to of positive vibes was surprising. Nostalgic AF, thanks for reacting brother.
***big hug for the big man***
Love me a horn section.. Reel big fish, specials, english beat and so many more .. even early Chicago Ska and old rock and big band.. I freaking love a horn section thanks mate
One of my all time favorite bands!! 🤘🤘 So sad they broke up 😢
Love these guys! I saw them play in LA and while filming in their hometown of Boston. I also saw a cool show with the reformed Lemonheads that included Bosstones Nathan Albert who originally left the band at their height to get a degree in political theory from Brown University. This band has so many dope little side stories and fun facts.
Here is a hug for the Polo 😊, Loved the song😊
1997, Vans Warped Tour, Jacksonville, Fl... the Bosstones played in, what is essentially a metal barn. No AC, Full Summer heat, They all were on stage with full suits, Rocking the entire crowd, while the entire crowd, myself included, were jumping throughout their entire performance. It was one of the best experiences I ever had watching a band.

SkaCore is the subgenre , Ska mixed with elements of Hardcore Punk
Sing along bar song. I love that analogy. It most definitely is👍👍😍😍
the 90's had such an eclectic combination of awesome music, what an amazing era.
This was a great song at the time in the 90s. Us 70s babys where in a weird world. Our dads/uncles/men around us went through Nam. We were becoming men and there was not a challenge right? I mean our Grandfather fought WWII. Civil rights happened before us. We lived in the age of skateboards, Nintendo, and live was easy mode if you did volunteer for desert storm. But there was that feeling if the world challenged us we could step up...knock on wood. Great song.
This song was in the Kevin Smith movie Chasing Amy
Love love love Dicky Barrett always ❤
One of the pillars of the early to mid 90's ska/punk 3rd wave. Hardcore guys from Boston playing such catchy music. Their live shows are legendary. Last time I saw them live was at Thompkins Square Park in NYC, and they owned the place. If i may suggest, "Someday I Suppose", another tune from their earlier repertoire. Awsome reaction brother!
These guy's are bloody awesome live I've seen them here in Aotearoa New Zealand 💪👍✌️👏👏👏
Welcome to ska music! These guys and Reel Big Fish are so great.
i'd hug the polo with a bonus handshake at the same time.
Boss tones!!! Love them, since '95.
I was in peace corps- girlfriend of drummer- we all hung out! Magical. Big SKA fan…would go to other countries and hear more SKA-Japan was cool with that style….. many years ago……many many years ago 97-99 Niger.
I forgot how much i loved these guys
Now you gotta listen to Royal Crown Revue "Barflies at the Beach" and Squirrel Nut Zipper "Hell"... All great songs that will have you wanting to sing and dance.
As one of my favorite bands of all-time, may I recommend these other tracks from The Mighty Mighty BossToneS: - Someday I Suppose - The Rascal King - Everybody's Better - Simmer Down - Royal Oil
fantastic reaction to the bosstones. they have sooo many great songs. this one was off of their first major label album, so it sounds a lot cleaner than their older stuff. it's a shame they broke up.
I agree completely that horns add a depth to music.
Love them!!!! 💗💗💗💗
Sending hugs caring hugs,this is a no knock on wood gift😅❤
Crazy good song always loved the energy here love you
ah, the memories ❤ God bless punk rock girls
Good song 🎵 The 90’s were so much fun!!
Sing-a-long bar song is EXACTLY what this song was.... good 'ol college days in the bar
This brings me back... (I wish "literally") but I'll take this little dose of Nostalgia.
Amazing 90’s song and song in general!!
This song is not only fun but has a great message without smacking you in the head about it
I love sincere lyrics like this
I swear its like a bunch of coworkers at a marketing firm formed a band with a few buddies from highschool to jam with on the weekends and accidentally turned out awesome.
I love it By it I mean both the song and the reaction. Thanks ✌🏽
Loved these guys back in the day!!!
Ska is so great dude, it's a punk reggae fusion where you just invite all your band friends to come rock out in your garage with whatever instruments they play.
New 2 the channel I love that you reacted 2 Bosstones! I only got 2 see them live once and it was a show!!!
Love your different insight into songs that I love. Keep up the great reactions brother!👍
One of my all time favorites
If you go to a bar in Boston MA you’ll likely here this playing and everyone knowing the words. Also, don’t tempt an avid hugger to give you hugs…we just might take you up on it 😂 virtual hugs to you Polo!
Man. Just a great song. Loved it for decades. It comes along on road trips every time.
I miss3rd wave Ska. We were bumping this in 97. Sr year in hs.
I saw this band I think like three times in the 90s at least! Always a fun time and I kinda miss those ska days. ❤
Yeeeeeessssss!! So more Ska!!! There was a brief moment in the late 90s where Ska made a huge comeback and all was right with the world! Need to do some Reel Big Fish, Goldfinger, and Save Ferris!
I miss when you used to talk about lyrics and give your interpretation. That was always my favorite part because you're a smart guy and often opened a new angle to look at songs from.
