I remember when BAD came out with this album, I was working in an office by myself. I would blast their songs on the radio KROQ. OMG! how time flies. That was back in the 80's, Now retired and enjoying life in 2023. When I was in my 20's my friends and I would hit the clubs in Hollywood. Best times of my life. So sad now some of them are gone, but I am sure they are in Heaven!!!
These guys are so talented. Just look at the lyrics. The song is actually very complex especially along with the music and samplings. Just a fun song to listen to. Very different and unique sounds.
Oh yeh bro . . it sounds so simple but it's not . . I tried to do e= mc2 it;s like a feight train. . the amount of power in that song good luck mick jones is a beast and way way way way underrated as a musician. . pff
I love this album... I was in high-school and I associate this song with the first time I heard it... heading off-campus to the 7/11 for lunch w/ friends. Drugs, arrogance, betrayals, jealousy and insecurity have destroyed those relationships... so it's a bittersweet nostalgia for me. However, listening to the Micheal Cohen testimony this morning... I heard the line in the back of my mind, "get three coffins ready..." And had to play this as soundtrack to the ugliness just now being dragged into the hard light of the official record.

Mick Jones left The Clash in 83, the same year The English Beat broke up. Mick joined Dave Wakeling and Ranking Roger in General Public and they put out All The Rage (with the hit song Tenderness). Mick then left in 84 to form Big Audio Dynamite. Dave Wakeling reformed The English Beat and is still touring in 2024. Mick is doing side projects, some with Paul Simonon, the bass player from The Clash.
The BAD We’re completely original, Absolutely know one like them, Absolutely Fantastic Songs, Great Lyrics and Very Catchy Tunes, This song is an Absolute Masterpiece and I don’t know why they are not put up there with Anyone Else. This Album is a Musical Masterpiece great songs with an Incredible Lyrical Intellect, That goes even beyond Shakespeare, but That’s Old School Cockneys for ya .. Love you Mick and Don .. and the BAD.. We had it years ago.. and they gave it to us.. Proper London.. 🙏❤️🌞⭐️🎸❤️
❤i was 16 when I first heard this album. I was at catering college and some of us students went to Scotland to work on an army camp to cook in the army and officers mess. We met up with other students. This was the album we all listened to during the summer. Happy days 🎉xx❤
I watched this on the old grey whistle test and was hooked. I've seen them 4 times and have every album. This is my second favourite of thiers, Sambadrome is my favourite tune of all time, it got me looking at the world differently.
when this album first came out and i bought it , i listened to this song constantly and although the video is pretty corny 🤣i love how Joe , Paul and Johnny Lydon show up in it. i was lucky enough to see BAD so many times in clubs and smaller venues
Moses Berkowitz You'd be surprised,Moses,how many times I've argued with people that the segment comes from one of the best Spaghetti Westerns of all time. They just don't agree! 😁
One the greatest recording ever. Big audio dynamite!!! Loved it when it was released and have the extraordinary presence to still be in awe of it at 55. Brilliant!!!!
Ahhh man. Dad used to absolutely almost blow hes speakers with this and drive us all nuts. Great song. But dad literally rock the house with hes JVC AMP SND WARFDALE SPEAKERS . Miss u dad 😥
Yaas! Still the best pop video of all time. Yes! "And I read in the Middle East They traded some for a hostage release Now if you're bald it'll give you hair If you got straight trousers it'll give you flares Feeling up you'll get depressed Out of style here's a brand new dress"
+TheDrRudi I think Steve Jones is in there as well, about a minute in. In my deluded young mind of having loyalty to certain bands and calling others sell - outs, I forgot that these people are musicians and that's what the job entails, creating and hopefully earning a bob* or two along the way. bob = not so old word for a shilling UK money before European Union, I'm just not happy using the easy get out word "buck" Take it easy
Johnny Stingray I think your right, just had another look and I'm pretty sure it's him, some of the women look familiar, one in particular looks like Siouxsie Sioux. Who was the big fella with the hat?
Love this. One of BAD's best songs and hilarious video. Great to see Strummer and Simonon back with Jones - the nearest we ever had to a Clash reunion + even Lydon's in there. Not sure about his latest plan to play King Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar though...
Such a Dope Vid. Circa what. 1986? Ah the Punk Wars. It's Bad!!! The endings the best__Strummer 'still' beat Mick. Again a beautiful vid. Beautiful people..and Mick with that sly smile. Again here it comes__a work of Art in 3:36.
a drop of the laughter of the maids of france... class. Was too young to realise Micks gimmicking about with the dancing lady's belly at 3:52 ... his facial expression is priceless
Such a great song...so musically interesting. Always been one of my favorites from the 80's. The mixed in "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" sound bites are so well executed. John Lydon making a surprise appearance...I had forgotten that. Music after the 80s is mostly dead to me.
I remember being a college DJ and "breaking" BAD on the radio when they came out... knew it was something special the first time I listened to it and it's still as fresh now as it was back then.
Great song, wonderful lyrics, terrible video! The lyrics paint such a great picture it’s hard to imagine any video doing them justice. So happy this song exists.
I LOVED The Clash. They broke up and I moved on. Then BAD came around. Clash II with a very different sound but equally cool. Many great years of music from these folks.
![Pet Shop Boys - Domino Dancing [Extended Version] (Official Video)](/img/1.gif)
Still sounds good after 30 plus years now doesnt it?? hats off to Mick
You betcha
It loves Sergio Leone, BIGG
Sounds good after nearly 40 years....that's class
I can remember rewinding my cassette copy at school with a pencil so I cd listen to it sooner when I got home!
@@paulbrown8411 greg dread must be 12 in this video :D
This was so completely unique sounding and different when it came out. Wait. You know what? It still is.
Norman Watt-roy said once (or twice) "Good Music never dies"
There are so few acts that sound like BAD or vice versa
Yeah Big Audio Dynamite definitely had their own unique sound.
Lee Ann,
💥ABSO-HELL-YEAH-LUTELY‼️
Who the hell is that?
You making some kind of joke

Some of us are still here. Aloha Venice, California...Santa Monica, California.
Great to see Joe, Paul & John invited to take part too ❤
One of the Best songs of all time. So ahead of his time... it never gets old.

The Samples are Perfect, The Band is Perfect, The Song is perfect

@@WaitAMinute1989 I LOVE THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY
It was on Channel 5 some weeks ago.
@@rjjcms1 woohoo
Mick Jones is truly an original talent
Mick always looks like he's having a blast.
Mary Woods Because he was blitzed on gunja...😉
Any chance of getting footage of Vigo Spain bad lasers and a game of conckers on stage with Mick
Fantastic band to see live, great energy.
...down at the globe.
KKKKKKKKKKKK SIM.
What a f-ing band! Fabulous!
These guys are so talented. Just look at the lyrics. The song is actually very complex especially along with the music and samplings. Just a fun song to listen to. Very different and unique sounds.
*one day the brother's gonna work it out*
Same for The Clash
The lyrics are tight
It gives me a silly grin evert time I listen to it.
Oh yeh bro . . it sounds so simple but it's not . . I tried to do e= mc2 it;s like a feight train. . the amount of power in that song good luck mick jones is a beast and way way way way underrated as a musician. . pff
This song reminds me so much of a better time and place. So nostalgic. I used to crank this almost every day when I was 15
You are so right...what a time to live...
Spot on with that hun xx
Playing in a boombox on my lap cause my buddy's car didn't have a tape deck. Love this shit

Me, too. Same age in 1985
Tuco Ramirez, Neneh Cherry (dancing in the white hat), and Johnny Rotten in the same video, it had to be a smash
*Paul Simonon and Joe Strummer like police officers too*
Don't forget Andi Oliver
Love Big Audio Dynamite!! I graduated in 1986 and this was the band we listened to all the time. They still Rock!!!
salute!
Covered wagon, Medicine Show
Take you to a place where the healing flows, oh-ho
Weak in spirit we got the juice
Won't save your soul it'll shine your shoes, oh
Treated king to kangaroo
Santa Fe to Timbuktu, oh-ho
Don't be fooled by imitation
This is the stuff that cured a nation
We took the tube and the high plains too
Never stopped long just passing through
A drop of the laughter of the maids of France
Makes a hopeless cripple dance, oh
It was really vile weather
When we got tarred and feathered
You could hear the six-guns sound
As they chased us out of town
Whoa-ho...
In India we're all the rave
Discovered that it's great as aftershave, oh-ho
Dropped in the sea just off Japan
Swapped twenty bottles for an aqua-walkman, oh
Immunity from ridicule
Improves your brains if you're a fool, oh-ho
And I read in the Middle East
Traded some for a hostage release
Now if you're bald it'll give you hair
If you've got straight trousers it'll give you flares
Feeling up you'll get depressed
Out of style here's a brand new dress, oh
It was really vile weather
When we got tarred and feathered
You could hear the six-guns sound
As they chased us out of town
Who the hell is that? One bastard goes in, another one comes out!
Turn him around! Turn around!
Turn him around! Turn around!
(Laughing)
I'm innocent of anything!
You making some kind of joke?
Oh, no.
(Laughing)
I don't think it's nice, you laughing.
The stuff we sell is just the best
Passing all consumer tests, oh-ho
Days of heaven, nights of sin
Voodoo stick and shark's fin
When all around you seems like hell
Just one sip will make you well, oh-ho
Multi-purpose in a jar
If you ain't ill it'll fix your car
In days of yore for all bad feelings
Washing socks and stripping ceilings
Nowadays it's used medicinally
For all known human malady, oh
It was really vile weather
When we got tarred and feathered
You could hear the six-guns sound
As they chased us out of town
Whoa-ho...

The Clash inside the Big Audio Dynamite video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
2:21
So many moving parts in that shot between all the people in it. Don Letts is a genius.
I love this song. It makes me feel happy. Thank you Big Audio Dynamite.
when i hear this now 30 odd years later i just remember warm summer days and blue skies and friends laughing smoking dope and everyone getting along
@@julianciahaconsulting8663 It reminds me of me and my mates driving to the dole office in our old Mk 3 Cortina to sign on. Good days.
Hear that in the background Billy ? That's cowbell.
The mark of true craftmanship
cowbells all the way! fond memories of Venus in Nottingham in the Balearic days RIP Weatherall!
Any band that samples Clint Eastwood's spaghetti westerns is genius
Clint Eastwood is an anagram of Old West Action.
A hint towards the Clash, magnificent 7 ;)
Wall of Voodoo did it before BAD.
Duck You Sucker/Fistful of Dynamite and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre as well
Mate which tracks samples the phrase "Go ahead London"!?

The last two minutes is sublime

Mick Jones, unique force in music. Love the lightness and flickiness of his rhythm playing.
Absolutely brilliant ❤❤❤
100% exactly what you're saying a unique force. .
I bet Joe helped wirh the lyrics...he had to, this is next level, even for Mick.....RIP Joe. Miss you, bro.
Remember this when it came out and went to see them live.
Such a great band. Should have been massive.
Jealous! Never got to see them live. I got to meet Don Letts briefly at SXSW which was awesome. Mad respect for that dude.
Had they come out in 92 not 85 they woulda been! 7-8 years ahead of their time
Back AGAIN and again and Again
when this album first came out and i bought it , i listened to this song constantly and although the video is pretty corny 🤣i love how Joe , Paul and Johnny Lydon show up in it. i was lucky enough to see BAD so many times in clubs and smaller venues
The final shot of Paul mick and joe reflects the famous NME cover shot from their first big interview... nice touch
Revolting Films nicely noticed
I love the part at 1:16 where the girl smiles and stares at Don.
I forgot how cool and unique this song was....especially the long part at the end with the scene from "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly".
Moses Berkowitz You'd be surprised,Moses,how many times I've argued with people that the segment comes from one of the best Spaghetti Westerns of all time. They just don't agree! 😁
G H
I agree. This song was out there.
And the first 3 words of the song, "Get three coffins ready"
B.A.D. = Cool
+G H and Fistfull of Dollars!
One the greatest recording ever. Big audio dynamite!!! Loved it when it was released and have the extraordinary presence to still be in awe of it at 55. Brilliant!!!!
63 years old here. And I agree 100%,
I saw them in April 1987 at Irving Plaza, NYC and they opened with this song. It was a great show and being in your 20s in the 80s was a great time.
This song always reminds of my big brother`. RIP Big Bro 😢
Genius song
Some of the best lyrics ever written and the use of sampling combined!
An absolute total masterwork.
This tune really captured my imagination as a kid. Got me listening to all sorts of music. ❤
Happy 60th Mick, love the cameo of Joe and Paul as cops ;)
There's just something unique and innocent with Micks vocals
This puts the biggest smile on my face.
Some 30 plus years later and this song still makes me dance.
this song, this music video, everything is perfect
Ahhh man. Dad used to absolutely almost blow hes speakers with this and drive us all nuts. Great song. But dad literally rock the house with hes JVC AMP SND WARFDALE SPEAKERS . Miss u dad 😥
Such an under rated band. Mick Jones is a genius
Never gets old never gets stale what a tune .....if you've got straight trousers it'll give you flares ..genius
One of the lines in this that made me laugh.
Shades of the Tom Waits sales freakout 'Step Right Up'.
Mick Jones. Absolute legend
I nicked the album out of Woolworths along with a dart board back in 85. Best thing I ever nicked. Thanks Mick Jones Loved it and still do.
Good lad
not going to ask where you put the darts lol
@@nobrainsnoheadache2434 I had to buy the darts, shame really, Bloody Woolworths selling dartboards without darts. Typical.
@@timsimpson9367 shoulda gone back and asked for a refund
Am I tripping or is that Johnny Rotten who pops up at 5:27 and gives a cheeky smile? Love this creative song, and the list of crimes is hilarious.
It’s him!
And Mick and Paul from the Clash as cops 🎉❤
one of the best songs and video ever made
Went to see them often !
Mick got us on the guest list!
Fantastic, I wish I was there!
THANK YOU 🙂
Yaas! Still the best pop video of all time.
Yes!
"And I read in the Middle East
They traded some for a hostage release
Now if you're bald it'll give you hair
If you got straight trousers it'll give you flares
Feeling up you'll get depressed
Out of style here's a brand new dress"
just sayin it man !. and they say get out of the 80s?
we are content.
No argument here :)
Mick has really good comedic timing. He should've done some acting!
The Clash were in The King of Comedy, the Martin Scorsese film.
@@davidfriedman627 YES!!!!!!!!!! WELL SAID !!!!!!!!!!! AND STRUMMERS FILM HELL W11
If only he could have played Jerry's European relative on Seinfeld.
Great bloke
What a masterpiece
At least 3 of my favourite films sampled in one song . Noooice. ❤
wow heard for the first time in years and still know every word awesome band
Never saw this video before! Love the song...the Delorean...
This always reminded me of the Clint Eastwood westerns!!!!😀♥️
The whole album is just brilliant.
it is
Thank you, thank you!
Complete with cameo from John Lydon! Fantastic
+TheDrRudi ... and any other aliases he might have...
+TheDrRudi I think Steve Jones is in there as well, about a minute in. In my deluded young mind of having loyalty to certain bands and calling others sell - outs, I forgot that these people are musicians and that's what the job entails, creating and hopefully earning a bob* or two along the way.
bob = not so old word for a shilling UK money before European Union, I'm just not happy using the easy get out word "buck" Take it easy
Steve Jones and Paul Simenon as the cops, Lydon at the end with the machine gun I think?
Johnny Stingray I think your right, just had another look and I'm pretty sure it's him, some of the women look familiar, one in particular looks like Siouxsie Sioux. Who was the big fella with the hat?
@stingray... I think you're confusing Steve Jones for Joe Strummer.
This is pretty damn good
I can almost sing this verbatim 30 years since I first heard it, lodged in my brain somewhere
We got the juice!
I heard The River by Springsteen the other day, and surprised myself by singing every word :)
I'm thankful for living in SoCal in a time hearing the evolution of The Clash, BAD and Dreadzone on KROQ, 106.7!
In SF it was The Quake KQAK 105.3. Same experience
Pay attention children - this is music.
"Don't be fooled by imitation, this is the stuff that cured a nation"
2nd that big style
lol
I’m a child who was raised right.
WTF, your writing does not make any sense...
BAD = musical creativity of the highest order!! Thanks Mick
A mix of many influences . A great sense of humour in their lyrics. Always cool to put some B.A.D vibes in 2020 😉
Takes me back....thank you.😎
That video looked like it was fun to make. Great that other Clash members & Lydon helped out! Especially the very lovely Paul Simonon... :D
mick jones , cant fault u . brill song x as was the clash well done never tire of hearing this one
To good, years ahead of everyone, not very often you get a fab tune and boss vid together, influenced so many, Jamie T included.
This is the most 80's thing i have ever seen.
Love this. One of BAD's best songs and hilarious video. Great to see Strummer and Simonon back with Jones - the nearest we ever had to a Clash reunion + even Lydon's in there. Not sure about his latest plan to play King Herod in Jesus Christ Superstar though...
You forgot Neneh Cherry!
Such a Dope Vid. Circa what. 1986? Ah the Punk Wars. It's Bad!!! The endings the best__Strummer 'still' beat Mick. Again a beautiful vid. Beautiful people..and Mick with that sly smile. Again here it comes__a work of Art in 3:36.
Such an underrated band.
I remember listening to this in my room as a young teenager thirty years ago. Such precious moments and even better, my Mom was still alive.
Don Letts, Mick Jones, Stussy Clothing & Neneh Cherry & John Lydon In a video, BRILLIANT!!!
Nenah cherry??
I was waiting for a Neneh Cherry comment !!
Marcelo Romero, Neneh is one of the dancers in this video
a drop of the laughter of the maids of france... class. Was too young to realise Micks gimmicking about with the dancing lady's belly at 3:52 ... his facial expression is priceless
Probably my favourite track of all time and it has been judged against many classics!
From one Phil to another....I agree with you. I hope they play this at my funeral.
Such a great song...so musically interesting. Always been one of my favorites from the 80's. The mixed in "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" sound bites are so well executed. John Lydon making a surprise appearance...I had forgotten that. Music after the 80s is mostly dead to me.
Such a unique sound. It all goes so well together
I was a massive BAD fan in the 80s, saw this vid a million times and it's only now that I notice Johnny Lydon and Nenah Cherry in it.
I remember being a college DJ and "breaking" BAD on the radio when they came out... knew it was something special the first time I listened to it and it's still as fresh now as it was back then.
Pure Genius
80's masterpiece.
Back for another look. Brilliant
R.I.P. Eli Wallach (a.k.a. Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez (known as "The Rat'') 24th June 2014.
Greatest western EVER! And Eli played one of film history's greatest characters in it.
Les Toil
He was Bad, Ugly and Awesome
Rockula Bacchus
Alas poor Tuco. I knew him well
His best role besides The Misfits and the Godfather III. He played an excellent Mexican bandit.
@@lestoil He almost upstaged Eastwood in that role.
From the clash till BAD mick Jones is a proper musian. A lovely bloke.
Don't rely on spell check
Masterpiece.
Seen them at the Roxy in Hollywood what a show
They dont make music like this anymore,which is sad but life goes on ehh?
Great song, wonderful lyrics, terrible video! The lyrics paint such a great picture it’s hard to imagine any video doing them justice. So happy this song exists.
As fresh today as the day I bought this cassette when it first came out
Still fresh all these years later...
God damn these people knew how to have a bit of a cavort
I LOVED The Clash. They broke up and I moved on. Then BAD came around. Clash II with a very different sound but equally cool. Many great years of music from these folks.
John Lydon cameo....priceless.
I would have preferred it without that twat in it to be fair
Yet another 97X "BAMMMM the future of rock and roll" memory is kicked loose here.
Trumps last press conference made me think of this song. One of my favorites
I even bought the same jacket 🤩
