Mike Skinner is genius, you got me going back to the streets now Jeff. Cheers dude, can't believe I forgot about his albums, stay up you're doing it right
Yessssss jeff! Liked before I even watched the video! This track meant so much to me when it was released, my uncle was a former heroin addict and when I played it to him he actually cried because of how on point it was in describing addiction!
Aw dude thank you for sharing your story!🙏 that’s incredible to hear that it moved him like that🙏 and true man, I’ve never experienced it myself, but I can’t imagine the grip heroin can have on you. I also like hearing this track helped you🙌🙏 it may sound odd, but I feel you on that. I have my own songs that have helped me; so it’s humbling to know someone else’s🙏. Keep safe bro👊💯
A dark backdrop to this track, but encourages the listener to stand up and fight. This track has never left my heart and mind. Jeff, thankyou so much for this video. Peace from Scotland 🏴❤️✌️
Hey bro, I'm Late to the party but this music resonates with me. It always has done since they released it. Your words compliment this tune. I hope you have managed to keep on the right path and you life is better for it. Big love from the UK 💙
I became a chef when I was 31, threw in my job and went back to college. Been part of 4 award-winning teams since, featured in a national newspaper & several renowned food guides, even got to visit No.10 Downing Street... This song reminds me of a song by The Wildhearts called My Head Wants Me Dead. Very different in musical style, something akin to Social Distortion meets The Police but very similar lyrical themes, do check it out.
Uno Jeff I come back to this reaction once in a while when I’m feeling down and want to listen to this song… but it’s nice to watch someone who understands the song too… love
Sick Jeffro! This album was, and still is pure brilliance. Lyrical architecture at it's best. Big shout out to J Shaw for promoting this banger. You're never alone Jeffro son, you got family here ;) Blessings man.
Glad you are getting into some older UK stuff. Also, you are never alone as long as you are putting yourself out there. If you ever come to the UK hit me up.
This whole album is relatable in so many ways. I was oblivious to others feeling the same as me and having the same thoughts until I listened Mike Skinner. Massively under appreciated. Love your content man. Peace and love! Subscribed!
@@JeffDonnelly Cheers for the reply man. You should listen to 'same old thing' and 'don't mug yourself' from original pirate material if you haven't already, great tracks.
I'm not even a subscriber but was listening to this song and decided to search reaction to see who has and this was uploaded 28 minutes ago lmao nice reaction earned a sub!
Can't go wrong with any track on this album, easily a classic and a gamechanger in UK music. The first track 'Turn The Page' is well worth a listen too. I've always rated Mike Skinner as a genius writer & for putting a spotlight on the up & coming MC's with his remixes & with his own label (The Beats) The Mitchell Brothers were one of the acts he signed, they're underrated af & 'Routine Check' ft Kano is a gem. Stay safe bro, hope you're keeping well 👊🙏
Oh shit that’s pretty cool man I didn’t know he did that. That’s respectful✊💯 and true man I’ve seen that track mentioned a couple of times. Definitely going to jump on it. Prepare for a lot of rewinds, with a title like that? Jesus😂. I know it’s gonna be better than the Metallica remix of that song, although I don’t mind that one either🤣. Doing good man I hope you’re are too bro!🙌 Stay blessed to my g🙌👊🙏
Great reaction. Jeff, when this was released I sat in my friends garden drunk and high and listened to the whole CD track to track. It's a masterpiece. Each track just flows into the next. When I heard it I felt a change coming. Before this it was garage that was mainstream. I really believe grime was more accepted after this. Although not Grime it was more lyrical than The shit that was out thenJust my opinion.. Peace
After A very messy break up I slammed head first to the rock.. I was a broken man with his heart ripped out... This album saved my life.. Thank you Mike Skinner

Oh my god you're covered Mike Skinner....I love this guy.....wow blast from the past.....i too followed the brown route but good now 🤘
Yessssss jeff! Liked before I even watched the video! This track meant so much to me when it was released, my uncle was a former heroin addict and when I played it to him he actually cried because of how on point it was in describing addiction!
I'd love to see you do "on the edge of a cliff" by him too! Very different vibe but still a great message

Original pirate material, your listening to the streets lock down your aerial
Has It Come To This?
I'll show you the secrets to sky and the birds
Actions speak louder than words
Stand by me, my apprentice
Be brave, clench fists
I like this guy.

Great reaction Jeff! The whole album is incredible, if you're looking for something from his later albums react to The Escapist, great tune.

Weak become heroes next Jeff. You won't regret it
