Lyrics:
Situation no win
Rush for the change of atmosphere
I can't go on so I give in
Gotta get myself right outta here
The production on this song is stunning. The piano tones, his voice, the drum sounds it’s still sounds fresh and state of the art, and cutting edge 30 years later.
The other thing that’s really amazing about this song is it was their biggest hit so they had the guts of an amazing song and they took a risk of fucking it all up with that weird shit in the middle of it, but he did it anyway and it worked. that’s the definition of Ballsy.
one of the mst fun sngs ever to air play invisible instruments too
Today's my bday, 60 years old and when driving to work this morning this song came on the radio. A nice present.
Mick Jones and BAD was so good at running with and fusing styles and reflecting the times . The song and clip were laced with all that was going on in the Manchester rave scene with elements of sampling , hip -hop, funk , post -punk , acid jazz, psychedelia - its all there . Brilliant.
And the drop in from Peter Sellers talking about rhythm & melody is classic too.
@@nickyonstilts128 And a touch of Baba O'Reilly in the mix as well...
@@DavidGeelan2029 yes, I love that part!
Exactly :-)
I'm 55 and I remember rocking out to this song daily ! We had the best music !
Quit being stuck in the past, you geezer.
62 here🎉!
Most original music. Now its on repeat
Yeah, 55 here. Seems like a few minutes ago I was thirty.
57 still sounds fresh. Cheers!!!
Not that we understood when released, this masterpiece was well ahead of its time
Anyway bad did was well before there time just like th dk
situation no win
Don't tell me what i thought. At the time plenty of this knew it was sent from the future 🖕👽
@@topdeckdog How far into the future? When will we know we’ve reached that day?
My friend and I used to figure out where the samples came from on this album and megatop.
They were masters at that. Them and the bomb squad
Clash and BAD were incomparable! I have so many fabulous fun memories during this pivotal musical period. Rest Peacefully Joe Strummer, miss you so!
Loved the Clash and Big Audio Dynamite. Now I am 66 years old. Love Joe Strummer. Great Memories, I was always hanging out on Melrose at the time and hitting the Hollywood Clubs. 80's and 90's were the best times for me. Now going to Melrose is too dangerous. That is messed up. How times have changed.
One of the most underrated bands of all time.
Nope. Pretty popular actually.
@@topdeckdog Not as much in America.
killer track and a great band, thank you BAD...
@@lowenbad Agreed about both points. Not sure about the UK, but they weren't that well known in the US and it's obvious since their music videos only have a few million views, same for Spotify song plays, though a bit more for a couple of songs. The top cities for where listeners live are all in the UK and Australia. I grew up in an area that had a station that played them and other UK indie/alt bands a lot so if you asked me then, I would have assumed they were pretty mainstream. I realized later that wasn't common in much of the US and many haven't heard their songs.
@@the_letter_b they were one of the first rock bands that used samples and decks as part of the band’s overall sound…. Way back in the 80s! They are extremely influential to modern music, but not many people realize this. Personally, I like BAD just a bit more than The Clash. (Don’t kill me! Lol)
My old band “Lowenbad” was very influenced by them… mainly because we were a rock/ soul band that integrated samples into our sound.
This song reminds me of my Father before he passed away - dancing around the living room to this song blasting from the speakers. I miss those days.
this shit is deep af musically... clash soul, break beat, hip hop, soul, organ solos, broke ass vocals, ambient... wtf. mick jones. legend.
I see what you did there
Right on
Amazing song and I just loved that they sampled Baba O'Reilly by The Who. That just made this so special.
And Deep Purples Child in Time
@@ewan_GTO Agree and anything from In Rock and Machine Head as well!!!!
Jones and the Clash inspired Who Are You
Wow. "Now I'm fully grown"... just moments ago, it seems to me, it was 1991 and I was 11, jamming to this song. Wow.
The question everyone is asking, though is: did you somehow stay thin while the other guys got fat?
I was fully grown 22, twice as old as u! We r much closer together in age now!
ha, i feel too young to be here sometimes... i was raised on my mom's music, this is what I listened to all the time on the way to school when I was 12 in 2016! still love the whole album, listen to it every now and then.
Ha.. Made me feel. The same... I close my eyes.. Im there!😁
Cute catchy edgy. Exactly
First five songs are seamless and work perfectly together. This album is so underrated.
Absolutely
Yeeeeeessssssss ❤
Yeah this is definitely an awesome album! very talented band
I still have the cassette! Play it sparingly, but when I do, I play it on blast & dance my ass off! Haha (same w/PIL)
@@maryw3581that was a good tour: BAD, PiL, Live, Blind Melon.
I just heard Keith freaking Urban jam several bars of this live tonight in Hollywood FL. Blew my freaking mind, as I was "tagging along to a country show" with my KUrban super fan sister. I was very pleasantly surprised. She'd never heard of BAD. Freaked me out!
One of the coolest rock singers in my book!
Why does this music sound different than now? Mick was pushing the bar!
I just don't think Mick Jones gets the recognition he deserves. Can't believe it took me so long to check out this project.
This song makes me want to dance
Me too and I don’t often dance
yes rush for a change of atmosphere
Haven’t heard this song in like 25 plus years. It came across my feed and I forgot how much I liked it. All The Clash members were important, but it’s very clear who had the talent for pop hooks; Train In Vain, Should I Stay Or Should I Go, all written by Mick Jones. This could have been a huge hit for The Clash, had they not kicked out their hit machine.
Thank you Mick for helping me through some tough times. ❤
This always makes me happy. Mick’s dancing🙌
Mick Jones.. pure genius... BAD and The Clash.. legend bands.. 2019 and still great.
That opening part is so brilliant. It brings a smile to my face and makes me want to jump up and dance.
I can feel 1990/91 all over again?!! We need more music like this in this day and age...
I hated 90/91 at the time, but now oh how I wish I could go back...
@@GreenFlash1790 , I get what you mean here but it's still way better than now in the 2020's! Anything is...
I do not listen to this song a lot. But I do think of it often, and say things like "situation no win" and "i gotta get myself right, outta here"
Re-listening to it now, every line of the song is great.
We would listen to this when skateboarding the half pipes and enjoying life...
Sweet!
March 2019.
This song gets better with age.
May 2019 same here!
The song does, the video does not lol
June 2019
for real
Agreed
One of the key members of a band that literally changed music forever! Never to be repeated! London Calling for the Sandinista!!
I didn't get BAD's music when they were recording in the eighties. Sorry Mick, it took a while but I'm getting into it now.
Still listening and loving this song in 2024
If I have my time again
I would do it all the same
And not change a single thing
Even when I was to blame
For the heartache and the pain
That I caused throughout my ears
How I learned to be a man
Through the laughter and the tears
Situation no win
Rush for a change of atmosphere
I can't go on, so I give in
Gotta get myself right outta here
Now I'm fully grown
And I know where it's at
Somehow, I stayed thin
While the other guys got fat
All the chances that I've blown
And the times that I've been down
I didn't get too high
Kept my feet on the ground
Situation no win
Rush for a change of atmosphere
I can't go on, so I give in
Gotta get myself right outta here
Yes, yes, delightful, delightful
Rush for a change of atmosphere
Mm, I wish I could sing like that
Not everything's singing, you know
The only important thing these days is rhythm and melody
Rhythm
And melody
And of all my friends
You've been the best to me
Soon will be the day
When I repay you handsomely
Broken hearts are hard to mend
I know, I've had my share
But life just carries on
Even when I'm not there
Situation no win
Rush for a change of atmosphere
I can't go on, so I give in
Gotta get myself right outta here
Situation no win
Rush for a change of atmosphere
I can't go on so I give in
Gotta get myself right outta here
Gotta get myself right
Gotta get myself right
Gotta get myself right
Outta here
Gotta get myself right
Gotta get myself right
Gotta get myself right
Outta here
Thanks for the lyrics ❤❤❤
I heard this song playing over the loud speaker tonight at, of all places, my local bottle shop (a shop that sells alcohol for all those non-Aussies). The guy serving me and I reminisced for a few moments about the film clip. I'd Shazamed it while waiting in line to remind myself to buy it on iTunes when I got home. Still great memories all these decades later.
Thank you for that, as an American I would have just assumed that the bottle store is just a place to store bottles
Love the way they sample other classics, amazing song.
It’s amazing how only two root chords and using only those two chords in different variations of them can make an amazing song.
0:59 Even Santa feels the love! 🙂
Never heard this song before until a week ago it came on the radio...instantly love it :)
I love when that happens!
Soooo lucky u did !!
If u at least 40 u missed a lot of good shit like this...someone give the lady a playlist of good shit!!!
Well I guess you must be very young then, and good luck to you if you are. As for me, haha, I'm an old fart who remembers as if it was yesterday how huge this was when it first came out....
Welcome to my favorite childhood song! 😄
Hello future person, yes we are still listening to this in *[insert year here]* Have a lovely day!
August 2020. 😃✊🙌😍💝💓💕This is my affirmation and anthem! So greatly and perfectly written and the music is so wonderfully produced and woven into the lyrics. This song speaks to me!🤗☺️Good video
Just heard this sing playing at a gas station!!!!!!
2020
Best comment ever ..... thank you
2020 baby ❤️🇦🇺
An incredible piece of production. And a frozen moment in time.

Mick Jones is a fking genius.
A quintessentially 90s song
Saw them live at 1992…. They opened U2 concerts in Mexico City! Wow…. More than thirty years ago!! Great song 🎧!
I saw them open for U2 in Christchurch NZ in 1989...
It terms of composition this has to be one of the oddest pop songs to be played regularly on the radio in the 90s.
But it was one of the coolest! 😊😁🎶🎶
it's STILL played a lot on radio.. every time i go to supermarket or department store i hear this song!
Yes, isn't it great? The entire Globe album is fantastic.
If you know the Clash, you know that was part of the plan.
Haven’t heard this in decades! Bloody love it
Considering the unimaginable pressure to live up to his previous band's material, this stuff was fantastic..
About a million times better that post Jones Clash.
if you're a british dude named mick, does that automatically make you an all-time hall-of-fame front man?...what a timeless voice!
Or a superstar guitarist. Think of Mick Ronson.
Easily one of the most under rated bands that ever existed.
Agreed...although, the original line-up was the best...
@@stephenstone8480meh BAD is better in my eyes, they really went out there with some weird stuff but it’s super creative and detailed
That instrumental break! So good!
The best samples in this song!!!
Two years ago this became the theme song for my wife and me. We had it living in Northern VA and we decided to say fuck everything and move to Charleston SC. No job, no plan, no nothing. Fuck it. Well, we just got here 2 weeks ago and we are living the dream -- jamming to BAD and loving life so hard it is bringing tears to my eyes!!!!! Fuck it!
yay!! 😊
Kerry Steele I live in Northern Virginia. Your story brought a smile to my face.
Kerry Steele I'm from Va Beach and just recently moved to Summerville with my girlfriend. We love it here and are jamming out to BAD as well!
I hope it worked out.
"No job no plan no nothing..." fast forward 6 months...?
A candidate for the most underrated song of all time.
It was a #1 hit in my country(Australia) so I personally can't class it as underrated.
One out of four music videos is unenhanced with the underrated song commentary, I got a chuckle out of someone last week who said this song is adequately rated, B.A.D. is awesome there's many words to describe it's joy
@@GreenCanvasInteriorscape
B.A.D. yes.
B.A.D. II not so much. Only one record.
@@FingerBreakerWu Tori Amos professional widow listen and see it went further ...
@@KaceyRepublic Couldn't agree more. So many comments here as as if people just discovered this. 🤦♂
So, here you go ...I'm 62 years wise, and your song and vid has gotta be in the top 50 right? Thanks for tis awesome song.
Ditto 62, and I'm still buzzin on B.A.D.
20 years dumb… been listening to this since highschool, reminds me of doing stuff with my dad. Play it when I need to get shit done
We loved the 80 and we loved Big Audio Dynamite. We listened to it while driving, danced in the new wave clubs and enjoyed it so much. I just turned 57 years young and still love this music, because it brings back great times and great memories. That was the best era in music and a lot of great music came out of that era, including this song and this band.
Jones simultaneously lauds and lampoons styles and arrangements that influenced him, as well as his own limited vocal dexterity. "Not everything is singing."
It's so authentic. It's me.
Only thing that matters is rhythm and melody ... rhythm and melody.
and it figures, it takes a punk artist to do pop WELL!!!
Gleep Wurp
👌
That’s was perfect!
I was about to say the same quote, lmfao!!!
😜
delightful, delightful,... i wish i could sing like that............
when someone tells me they've never heard of BAD it used to upset me.....now it's a teaching moment.
Love the flower of life at the end
2021 and I still love it.
Thank you forever, Big Daddy
2022 and I still love it. Best workout song EVER! I hurt myself to it every time.
@@lisakool9099 🤣 Awesome! Wise choice. A true workout is when you’ve got sore muscles after. I only hope my expressive channel is that soothing.
Funny how thirty years ago I didn't think much of this song, and now it's one of my favorites from the era!
When we were young & carefree
Long love the 🎶 music of the 80s & 90s!
Mick Jones was the backbone of the Clash his talent and skills are stellar
er yeah, that other fella, Joe something was rubbish wasn't he?
2:58 ...and now back to our regularly scheduled song.
just love the clash & big audio dynamite. mick Jones genius
From the Clash to this. Great seeing artists experiment. I could see this happening even back in the Clash days. Same for Tery Hall. Specials to Fun boy 3.... Not sure musicians nowadays would do this. They've got to be a brand.
Shout out to my man @2:03 doing the Macarena 2 years before it existed.
Not 2 years before. At least 4 years before. Time travels, Mandela effect and Illuminati confirmed 😮
You're so right
Great Catch! Cat was an early adopter.
Guys the Macarena existed in Spain for decades before the song went international
lindsay white people think they invented everything
I loved the Clash and also Big Audio Dynomite. BAD released this album back in the day and man I still listen to it to this day of 2023. Awesome and I am 67 years old, and I will listen to it when I am 70 hopefully.
you and me both brother
I can't seem to make it loud enough.
If I had my time again
I would do it all the same
And not change a single thing
Even when I was to blame
For the heartache and the pain
That I caused throughout my years
How I'd love to be your man
Through the laughter and the tears
Situation no win
Rush for a change of atmosphere
I can't go on so I give in
Gotta get myself right outta here
2022 still loving this song I'm only 53🤣🤣🤣🤣
Man those were the days. The 80s were on the way out - but bands like Depeche Mode, OMD and The Pet Shop Boys had just released their swan-song (and arguably best!) albums, meaning the 80s went out with a bang! The 90s were just getting going, the rave-party was just kicking off. Bands like the Happy Mondays and The Farm (shout out!!) were bridging the two decades and musical styles - pop and rave. The Inspiral Carpets were in the middle of MADchester. The Stone Roses dropped their bombshell premier album. Primal Scream were holding it down north of the border. Stock, Aikman and Waterman were making LowdsaMooneh in London. The Smiths were off in left field with 0 synths, but making some of the best pop ever. Need I go on? You could FEEL the energy in those days, you could cut the air with a knife it was so exciting. And today?. . . . 100% total SHITE. BORING electronic drivel. ZERO creativity. ONE day of the 80s/90s ('Welcome to the 80s/90s. . . ") were better than 1000 days of today. And why? One word: technology. Kids today are only able to operate a cell phone, not much more. Technology is killing our humanity. People, stop worshipping technology or it will be the end of us as a race. Peace out to kids of the 80s/90s!

Just think how big this would have charted as a Clash track.
Really thought this was from clash when i heard it
Well it charted at #1 US billboard, as well as here in Australia and also NZ. It was huge!
Joe wouldn't have let this become a Clash song.
And you know this how, exactly?
Oh yeah for sure
Brilliant! Simply brilliant! Master of using samples. Love this group…always.
The 90s are going to be great.

It doesn't really get better, but you get smarter, and don't spend so much energy chasing parties and ladies. So you start thinking and learning more. Seems like a fair trade in some ways.

2022 BAD will never be gone. Happy times!! Rhythm and melody☝️
Gotdamn MASTERPIECE, this.
Timeless.
Epic.
A legend of a jam.🥳🤭💫
Love how Child In Time is playing in the beginning :)
I noticed. Love that song.
Bad is the Baddest. Loved everything they did. What a creative sound and style.
That's a great mid 80's music from Big Audio Dynamite TOTALLY AWESOME 80's
I agree, TOTALLY AWESOME 1991 NOT 80'S
Everyone mistakes the early 90s for 80s. Totally annoying
My favorite boy band
Rhythm and Melody.
One of the cutest songs I have ever heard - great to clean to!
Terrifying-looking band members was not what I expected when I heard this delightful jam.
WHOOOH MAN!!! THOSE PAST TIMES JUST COME BACK RIGHT NOW!
GREAT TIMES! GREAT MUSIC!
Man.. the nostalgia sweeping over me hearing this gem after so many years!
Loved this song as a little kid
Gotta love SiriusXM Radio First Wave!!
Mick Jones the pioneer ✌
This is a bloody good song. It reminds so much of my misspent youth. Special stuff.
1989, Sweden, A DJ plays Big Audio Dynamite on an outdoors party. Linus 19 years old shouts "YEAH" and prepares for a dance off. The dance floor is in silence. The DJ playes something else. Linus dies inside and wishes himself being born in the UK.
30+ years later. The dreams lives on.
Had this song on a cassette tape playing constantly in my VW Golf in 1995...made many mistakes that year and the lyrics were very soothing
I had a 88 16V and wore out my BAD cassettes as well!!
2022 & been listening to this alot lately. Classic Mick Jones
Congrats on the royalties!
The 90s are going to be great.
I wish I could sing like that.
"Fish?"
"Pony?"
"Hip."
"Hip-hop...?"
"Hip-hop anonymous?"
"Damn you! You gave him the easy ones!"
listened to b.a.d. forever and a day and their stuff ALWAYS sounds fresh. never fails! long live mick, joe, clash and b.a.d.!
These guys were freaking amazing!
How did I not know this was mick Jones alllllll these years. I'm showing my kiddo the movie big daddy and just had a wtf moment. Mind blown and then my kid starts singing should I stay or should I go instantly....how did she know at 6 years old. Mind blown again.
Remeber hearing this when I was a kid. Always had it on repeat.
“I wish I could sing like that” Mick Jones for King of England!!
2:11 that background music beat ♥️♥️♥️♥️❤️❤️
This bloke had his head screwed on 😮 lyrics are only one of a kind. I lived this a life of this shit and don't worry life carries on just get your shit right.
Some really good songs never die....like this one! Still listening in 2017! Yeaaah!
Wow! My childhood just came RUSH-ing back to me!
I'm reading my journal, the day before I turned 18, this was my new favorite song. 1991.
I was a junior in HS in '91 and heard this song on the radio while driving to school one day. Never heard the artist or name of the song. Today, I finally discovered what song this is after all of these years. The tune has been stuck in my head ever since and drove me crazy not knowing the song. I finally found it by searching with Lyrics.com. This should free up some brain cells. :P
I first heard this during my teenaged music video obsession of the early '90s. But I swear that, as I approach my 47th year of life, this tune has been stuck in my head forever! I'm even about to evacuate the Midwest after a brief sentence here to return to the West Coast to work in the cannabis industry in a hippie town in Oregon. Scared shitless of the unknown, seemingly not enough money saved up, itching to get somewhere that feels right but also battling the demon of anxiety. This is the Universe singing to me about the path ahead. Shout out to all the Gen X'ers out there, living life for better and for worse!
One of my favorite bands back in the day. Underrated talent!
