Their kitchen party harmonies, thunderous rhythm section, high-octane stage show and genuine chemistry have won over audiences clear across the nation.
LYRICS
See the world in technicolour, see what you can do
Five and niner fiddlesticks to tango echo two
Miles away from wastin' at the local five-and-dime
To wishing you were somewhere else to help to pass the time
Armed to the teeth and underneath a relentless foreign sun
Armed to the teeth and underneath a relentless foreign sun
Riots, blood, sand and mud was all I got to see
In Kandahar, El Salvador, Belfast and Barbary
I went mad in Stalingrad and I shivered to the bone
So I danced a jig in Ladysmith and wished that I was home
Armed to the teeth and underneath a relentless foreign sun
Armed to the teeth and underneath a relentless foreign sun
Just another lowly victim in the struggle for hearts and minds
To the finest sons and daughters in the struggle of their life
Guns and pipers, ship to shore
Off to fight a rich man's war
Like our fathers did before
Just another lowly victim
In the struggle for hearts and minds
To the finest sons and daughters
In the struggle of their life
Guns and pipers, ship to shore
Off to fight a rich man's war
Like our fathers did before
Guns and pipers, ship to shore
Off to fight a rich man's war
Like our fathers did before
Guns and pipers, ship to shore
Ship to shore, ship to shore
I saw Flogging Molly last night, and these guys were one of the bands opening for them; that is how I found out about them and they're just amazing! Excellent live and very energetic.
So underrated!
“Armed to the teeth” *carries an enfield into the jungles of Nam*
Not Nam
Saw these guys when they came to put on a show in Southern Ontario a couple years back for 97.7 HTZ FM and they were amazing live. Picked up a cd and listened to them ever since.
These guys are playing in less then 2 hours at Rifflandia Music Festival in Victoria BC. I am excited to see them, then at 4:30 it's "The Dudes", 5:30 "Sloan" and then the main event "CAKE" at 7:30....today is going to be incredible.
I love these guys...do they ever rock it out live
Yes they do as someone who’s been to one of their concerts it’s fucking amazing
From an old soldiers view, best damned protest song .
Did any one else see them at Chagstock or Tolpuddle in the UK? One of the best live bands I've seen this summer.
Easily one of my favorite songs today.
This is the second one of their songs I have listened to the first one was fight song that I randomly stumbled across on Spotify when playing games online and I got to say really good music really nice beat and loud and energetic my type of music on top of all that fellow Canadians I think lol
Finally an anti-war song with balls! I love it.
Complete with a Super Nintendo reference.
FINALLLYYYY !!!!
A scottish one at that
@@dismal_waters0932 They ain't Scottish though?
@@dismal_waters0932 They are a Canadian Celtic-rock band. A definite Scottish influence.
Hey gents, come play in Edmonton some time!
This is a very good video for an awesome song, and I'm pleased it spoke out about how soldiers are just pawns to further the interests of rich men. Very, very few wars have ever been necessary or justified, but have served as a way to make some people even more rich and powerful than they already were.
I encourage people to look up Major General Smedley Butler, who served in the US Marines, and was a two time winner of the Congressional Medal of Honor. He concluded with bitter disappointment that his career had been a sham, that he actually hadn't been doing anything honorable in his time with the military. He eventually wrote a book called War is a Racket that outlines how he felt. Here's two quotes from it below:
"I served in all commissioned ranks from a second Lieutenant to a Major General. And during that time, I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street, and for the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer for capitalism."
"We must permit the youth of the land who would bear arms to decide whether or not there should be war."
Smedley Butler died a long time ago, but his message is still as relevant today, so I am pleased that The Stanfields have brought it up in this song.
I posted earlier, I also want to say that I'm a serviceman myself, and I don't regret any danger I may still yet face....yet this song is freaking epic v_v
Love these guys!!! Glad to see local guys making it so big! Keep it up guys and can't wait till you come home to play again!!!!!
Damn, just heard this on the radio, I'm not usually a fan of pretty much any music made in the modern day, but I love the Celtic folk vibe here, similar to Spirit of the West and I believe Mumford & Sons.
One on my top favorite bands for years now. Wish they'd come to the states.
I've been playing this song all day with the speakers cranked!
listen to this one day while playing world of warships gave me a weird feeling really good song through
The Dreadnoughts made a version of this tune as well, its called Back home in Bristol
The zone showed me this song! thank you Dylan/Jason
These guys are absolutely rockin' I need to get ahold of the album. Lots of excellent music coming out of Canada these days I love it.
how awsome would a dropkick murphys/ stanfeilds concert be
Bon beat, bonne voix, bonne musique, bonne toune !
i didnt find this from a radio station. i found them cuz their awesome!
know all these guys an they are as solid as there music
I would give my life to my nation and her allies, but I would never give it for a rich bastard in Ottawa.
Holy crap, these guys are awesome!
Thank you Zone in Victoria
Awesome. The Stanfields are win.
Hellz ya
Like most of these peoples, I saw these guys live opening for Flogging Molly. Fricken AMAZING! Me and my friend were the only ones in the audience that knew what a bouzouki was. Speaking of bouzouki, turn that thing up! The guitar drowns it out
The kid in this video is controlling the band on SNES! Jokes aside, these guys put on really good live concerts.
thank u for this, loved it, it says it all, what a waste a life lv u bro 67 yrs old
about 8 months late on this one but hey, who's counting?
I'm 9 years late, so I guess no one is counting.
Great job guys!!
Awesome! Is that Luca. He's so darn cute.
Thats awesome graphics for a SNES
Love it! Great Job Brothas!
Great video! I like the Super Famicom system :)
missed these guys friday night, didnt know they were playing in vic.... shittttt, least comeback kid and gallows are rolling by soon
great video! your guys are amazing!!
Where can i get the video game the kids playin? Looks like a blast.
Nice that’s actually a lee enfield
I love how you have men dressed in American ww2 battle dress but they're armed with British Lee enfields
Why in the hell am I just finding this song now?
i too heard it on sonic wooooooooo go oil kings!!!!
Pretty sweet boyz
fuckin' awesome live
great ending to the video lol
@slowrunn3r88 same!
great music but this video does them no justice
My friend showed me this band, and now i'm finding out sonic has playing these guys? Time to listen to sonic more and the bear less!
More love for Sonic 102.9!
stella
Rock the Shores - 2014 :D
One of the best performances I have ever seen live!!!!
Great last scene, when he turns his gun around. THAT will be when the rich man's war ends, when the soldiers turn the guns around.
FARB!!!!
Sonic is the cooler, more open-minded cousin of the bear. The music the Bear plays doesn't even come close to what Sonic plays. The Sonic bands of the month are always good.
22 people are wrong.
Sonic finds another gem
Lamb of Cunish, Marilyn MC Noah, Salvador. John...Kisten...RadioLAN, Flash. Revelation hah .
graffics were crap but still very good
@DukesterHFX who'd you act as?
i thinks thats kinda the point, thus them using the nes
Is this about Dieppe?
@johnpotter26 This should be the top comment. No ifs ands or buts
I think I saw The Predator !......!
9,189 ..and you're telling me a cat who plays piano gets more views?
one m0:00re time
damn... you need to mash all the buttons just to walk? i think that gameis to intense for me :(
4 PEOPLE ARE DEAF...
If you want pirate folk rock/metal you want to be searching for Alestorm
oops thanks 2 the govs carry on do they care no ,
The kid used an FC twin and out in a SNES game and used the controller as if it was a WiiU game pad... Yeah I'm a nerd
oh yeah, they DEFINITELY all sound the same. Sonic has variety, and if people want to listen to the same things over, let them. I've moved on to Sonic!
Yeah no kidding! Bear has just been playing the same old songs, making them really boring and old.
The only thing that sounds similar is the singing....with your logic, no one should listen to dubstep (i hate it, just an example), rap, metal, or any specific genre because that genre all sounds the same.........
But it all sounds the same because its the same genre.....
