Lyrics
Earthbeat it pauses in space
Trippin' trippin' trippin' through a holy sky
Trippin' trippin' trippin' trippin' through a holy sky
Even the air is dizzy earthbeat
Even the leaves are wheezing earthbeat
Even the clouds are coughing earthbeat
Sun beats furiously
Creatures basking around
Future yobs
Future you're to leave is small
Yobs yobs
Future you're to leave is small
Even the earth is dizzy earthbeat
Even the leaves are wheezing
Even the clouds are coughing
Earthbeat earthbeat
Burning energy illicitly
Lightbulbs flickering
Bhanya lei
It'll strech steeply
Bhanya lei
It'll strech steeply
Even the earth is dizzy
Even the clouds are coughing
Even the leaves are wheezing
Even the earth is dizzy earthbeat
Even the leaves are wheezing
Even the clouds are coughing
Earthbeats earthbeats earthbeats earthbeats
Earthbeats earthbeats earthbeats earthbeats
Even the earth is dizzy
Even the leaves are wheezing
Even the clouds are coughing
Earthbeats earthbeats earthbeats earthbeats…

I think that this is The Slits' best song! ❤
When I was 14 an older guy from my school gave me a 12" record of this song. He had won it from a local radio station. I told him I'd be interested in hearing it. So he gave it to me before school one morning. When I asked when he wanted it back he said he didn't want it back. He said it wasn't even music. It was just noise. I loved the visceral reaction the Slits had on people and I loved their music even more. This record made me a lifelong fan. 🎉
who cares about your school /friends stories. why the urge to tell it to strangers. don't u have your friends
@@zazzyzzz people are free to share any stories they want and those who find it interesting will like their comment, as they did. I don't care about you, but i'd recommend going to therapy, you clearly need it.
You. @@zazzyzzz
@@davepillette8732 yeah. and you about me.
@@davepillette8732 same as you are worried about me
Love the tribal drumming and beautiful vocals.
I absolutely love this album. it's a disgrace that island wouldn't spring for more than 400' of ropey 16mm & eight hours with some horses for an absolute banger like this. nice to see neneh cherry with them still.
I'm so glad this exists
The Slits in a field. Wow!!!!
Long Live The Slits.
Slits are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!
been obsessed with this video just read comments and lyrics..I try to share The Slits as often as possible on instagram etc, playing constantly on devices and help! The Earth is wheezing!
I love some phrases they sing in Japanese .
RIP Ari 🙏💖
Those harmonies at the end, besides always. Ari, salute, bow, love.
I was really hoping for a kung fu fight or something. This was pure art.
i love how punk rock used to be so versatile
It's interesting cos this is so hippyish and the hippy was the punks enemy
@@EdwardLowther-tp9suI think the idea that punk rock should have to fit a certain mold, is very un Punk Rock
I hate how you say “used to” bc you’re too lazy to explore modern punk. Every genre now has more versatility then back then, not less. EVERY ONE. Because as they expand in popularity, there’s more cases like The Slits where a small group of friends somewhere want to do Punk but in their own way. Every genre has it, if you genuinely think things were more versatile then you’re insane. You couldn’t get a record out as a nobody, even if you did if it wasn’t pushed it wouldn’t sell. It cost a huge amount of money and a lot of studios didn’t wanna take that chance on an artists debut, especially for a new genre at the time like punk. You had to go physically BUY A RECORD to even find out if you LIKED IT OR NOT. Maybe listen at the record store if the spots were open lmao but since the 80s it’s been nothing but cassettes and CDs, then iTunes and eventually streaming. Someone who had to go out and buy this record just to discover The Slits, can instead have the luxury I had, where years ago I was watching some documentary on the early days of punk and found this song and checked it out myself. It took half a second and was free of effort or payment, and music listeners today are more versatile. Look at my channel, I don’t even do Punk I do Hip Hop lmao but I have at least a few records I love from every genre, but that was so rare in the 60s - 90s. You pretty much picked your group and scene, and stuck to it. Now there’s a million people like me who take advantage of the versatility and are grateful. Because it logically makes zero sense that music would regress and have less artists trying new things, AS it grows and experiments constantly. Some small obscure country with no record stores just wouldn’t know The Slits exist back in the day, maybe theyd see them on TV once if they were lucky. Now even that country probably has plenty of people with iPhones, who can find this new stuff on their own. On top of everything else lmao like Punk Rock isn’t supposed to be versatile. MUSIC is, which is why there’s a million genres that tackle different sounds and styles. Even still there’s usually sub genres, there’s really just no excuse for these people of every genre to pop up and say how dead it is now. Ironically they’re the ones driving the axe through these genres heads 💀
The Police went down that route too.
love, something you never had from your parents
I'm 56 year's old and this is the first time I've seen this video
I'm 51 and my first time seeing it as well.
@@pauldunneska cool 😎107 years of this is awesome

Congraguritos! You're one of us, Goobl gobbl
HELL YEH, glad you found us
My first time now. Wtf but it's gooood 👍
Tonight (almost a year after you) is the first time I am listening to The Slits .
Typical Girls video was the first one I just saw a few minutes ago and now I can't stop till I hear/see all of their stuff tonight. Extremely pleasantly surprised by how good and original their music is.
They are definitely one of a kind.
it's so beautiful, magic spell.
I feel like Bjork probably liked this as a kid.
❤🎉I feel Like You Are Probably Right😊🎈🔮☺🦉🌊🦅
I feel you have a huge pns
Director: How many horses do you want in this mv?
The Slits: Yes
your dadddee: we must abort this creature
your mommeee: I did it already
but how IT kept alive???
Its a mystery
@@zazzyzzz mate, what are you even on about lol 🤣
@@piinkksnow you are unable to understand an elephant in front of you. that's why you need a all scenario set to make you understand what real humans do it by themselves
@@piinkksnow and why do you exist?
My favourite video of all times. Precious and beautiful voices, stunning drumming. It's such a treat. Merci
Man, shut up, this stuff is absolute garbage! I'll you find yoko uno talented as well.
Think you so much for such a beautiful comment there. 😉Keep the vibe alive.
@@johannrublein9483 Are you perhaps a bit tetched?
This is actually one of my favorite songs. 💞
@@johannrublein9483 yoko ono couldn't come close to this masterpiece
The Slits knew...
Чертовски прекрасная музыка. Очень отлично.
Neneh Cherry on back ups
Truly singular - the song, and The Slits. Just lovely (and appropriately angsty). Thanks for sharing.
I've forgotten this song................found it. Great sound and looks.
10/10 great song, great video
How I wish I could have danced to this as a child...
Dance now, child.
Never too late!
sweet
me too, but we had no RUclips + the Apartheid gov wouldn't have approved of anything worthwhile listening to, rather late than never 🤣
now i know where all my favorite 2010-era indie bands gained inspiration. awesome tune.
has that edge** that most music just doesnt have YET
Yup
"Even the leaves are wheezing" , "Even the clouds are coughing"🌳
Such a fabulous and calamitous band. They had a raw energy that would eat us all for breakfast!
Sliiiiits❤
The Slits are back? Oh, my. Welcome!
The Slits have been gone for years. This album is 38 years old.
Two of them reunited in 2007 for an EP, Ari Up passed away in 2010.
I love this. I knew the 2nd album only came out in Japan, but that they made a video for it, truly broke my heart. I’m a huge Slits fan, so this gave me great joy to see. Thank you for uploading this.
What gave you the idea that it only came out in Japan?
The album was only officially released in 1981 in Japan. Their record company only authorized an international release due to poor album sales from the first album “Cut”. It only became available in the US after their Peel Session was bootlegged.
Transformative
never seen this thanks for the upload.
Viv was apparently terrified of horses.
The Slits … かわいいです

Great song. Neneh Cherry In the video too. And is that Rotten in the hat and cape?!?
Pretty sure it's Bruce Smith of The Pop Group, who played drums on the LP.
Dio vi benedica Ari Up. Restate in pace. Terrabattaglia. Godersi questo pezzi di musica per la Slits. Lusciare composizione. Sublimi. Antonio - Gescom, The Fall, E-bloc M/cr, Ifach, Skam, Warp, Ancoats/Milesplatting. Salute!!!, grande l'ascolto. Xxxxxx.
What is ,,,e-bloc M,,, ?
@@modulblok-e3168 it means Eastern Bloc Records Manchester ( 808 State/A Guy called Gerald/Creed Records ). Va bene Antonio Futura Tiani3574 in Ancoats Milesplatting Manchester Nord Quartiere Piccola Italia. Cin cin.

Unmistakenably Budgie’s playing
Bruce Smith.
Bruce Smith also drummed for Bjork.
Yeah, its Neneh Cherry's ex Bruce Smith on drums 🥁 (I think he is currently part of PiL's current line-up)
Did I see Henry Cherry there?
Is that Neneh Cherry from "Buffalo Stance" ?
yes

I was expecting Adam and the Ants poping up in the frame at some point but it (fortunatly?) never happened.
La inspiración de Kim Gordon.
Kim gordon viene de los 90's, ellas de los 70's
Kim Gordon viene de principios de los 80s pero me refería a que Kim se inspiró en The Slits entre otros...
