April 2024. Watching BBC The Town. The Specials were that group bringing Ska music into the mainstream. RIP Terry Hall.

every teenager tooled up or drugged up, should listen to this song. 'think of your future.'

RIP Terry , you provided a really great soundtrack for the crazy 80's , late nights, drinking til dawn with friends. This music will live on in our hearts and, be discovered by new generations. 🕯🕯🕯

@@Sid_Vicious-hu6yn : Luv the moniker or aka Sid Vicious ! To me , there is a lot going on in the world , no one's singing about it. Music brings like minded poeple together in spirit. Your generation needs an anthem, if not, there are plenty of them going back to the very beginning of recorded music history. 🎵🎵🎶👍🎸🎹🎶🎵🎵😊

Brilliant times it was my era listening to punk and ska in late 70s and early 80s

Rudy must have been a real piece of work

It’s a description, not a specific person’s name. Rudy- Rude boy- a hooligan. Now basically means a ska fan 😂

I have to credit this song a little bit. I first began listening to it in 1979 at age 15, around the same time I was hanging around some bad influences. Whenever I was getting in trouble or close to it, this song echoed in my mind. Eventually I obeyed the warning and abandoned the ne'erdowells. I went my way alone and did good things with my life. 😊

Unity makes us stronger! SHARP

R.I.P. Terry 😪

When i was a teen i loved the specials. I saved my pocket money for a month and bought their album.

Born in 81 but grew up loving reggae and ska, proud to say you guys brought the sound to the midlands. Massive respect. R.I.P Terry Hall

RIP Terry.

One word CLASS

When I met Terry Hall, he was friendly/ polite and a really nice man. There was no snobbery about who he was and he welcomed our conversations. I know he was very sincere about his beliefs and I praise him for not just his music, but for being the really nice person he was. RIP Terry, you will be missed x

RIP Terry Hall😪

This is crazy. I see the video and I have no idea what this is. All of a sudden I’m listening to a song whose melody has been familiar to me my whole life and yet I’m hearing the complete song for the first time in my life. So glad I clicked on this.

Love this song. R.I.P Terry.

I don’t think they are underrated. I don’t get that at all. They were very rated in their day. Ska music is a very Uk vibe, would never be big in USA etc but they weren’t underrated.

Without being negative. Why do these people give a thumbs down. This is class ska from back in the day. It will also remain class. ❤

Oi to all the punks!!!

I was living abroad and there were a handful of my college friends who were into ska in the late 70s. Good times

A message to you Terry...I'll always love you and all your songs xx

I can remember this song back in 1979 great tune

so ahead of their time. still amazing.

2019 I am going to see them here in Chicago tonight. I am going to see them here in Chicago tonight.

An anthem of my youth... Have been able to sing this, incl the trombone solo, for as long as I can recall. Bless all, and RIP Rico and Terry Hall x

Great message for the young

結構前の歌と聞いたが、映像が綺麗で最近な感じがする。 I heard that this song is around 1979.But this likes seem recently.

I really likened this when it came out … still do but now I wonder… 3 🎸’s & can’t make out one 🤔

🇯🇲🥰💕love from jamaica

RIP Terry Hall. King of Ska.

Thank you Terry for the songs you sung!

Punk shook up disco, then came the refreshing energy of Ska. At a time us UK teenagers needed a voice of unity, of hope. Those golden early 80s of Ska and the new mod generation. R.I.P. Terry, you were a legend that shaped a generation. Gave us so much energy and so many great tunes!

Heard the original for the first time and love both versions.. Great music is timeless…

Superb. Rudy. I love this song. Always did. Since I first heard it all those years ago ! In my 60 s now. And I need these songs to keep me positive!😁

Much better quality. Thanks!

Liked this track from jump street.

The title says 5 years ago. I remember this from the 80's..............

Great cover! 👏

march 2021 - lovely guy from SD played that song for me during a video call. I really love it. I miss him so much.

Listening at 1.5x sounds like a 1999 ska song

🐍

Life on Earth (1979) Love it Alien (1979) The Video too Cool...👌 Love it

A timely message to Giuliani: “Stop your messing around; Better think of your future, Time to straighten right out, Creating problems in town.”

Ahhhhhhh 😊

I just love this song full stop, I am an old man, Full stop, the Sixties Guy, What I Love About this song is, We where brothers, Know races shit, we were one together, I loved it, Really wish it was now,................
