God, that opening 30 seconds is like a time warp back to the 90's... If you lived through that time, you can listen to those 30 seconds and remember where you were that beautiful summer, when nothing mattered, and everyday lasted forever and blended into the next..... what a time that was.
A Roma. Ero a casa mia a Roma , ero ancora troppo piccolo per viaggiare da solo e troppo grande per viaggiare con i miei genitori. Il tempo non lo può ingannare nessuno e fidati i conti alla fine dovranno pagarli tutti. Periodo meraviglioso fortunatamente.
I miss those times when there was no filming in clubs. Only pure music and you alone in the middle of hundreds of people dancing to the music. I loved this feeling of freedom so much. Greetings from Berlin.
It's not even about the music anymore, it's about all the flashiness and all that extra "artistry & pageantry" to boost the price of tickets. "Raves" are one step away from having "Budweiser" slapped all over them. 😢
This was my dad’s favourite song ever, always on in the car, on the radio, computer everywhere. It’s been a year and a half now since he passed and since listening to this song, but I’m so proud that he wanted this song to see him off, love you dad.
Every year on this day I listen to this song. It is the day my friend died from an overdose in 1997. This was the last song we heard together. The emotion that day will never be forgotten.
Was at tribal gathering when CARL COX DROPPED THIS !!! and the whole place went MENTAL.... was like yesterday.... never forget that as long as im alive... EPIC !
This song transcends time and space. Transports me back to 1996 fresh out of college and choosing life. It never gets old or dated. I could and have listened to it on repeat for a weekend. Rarely does a song of this length (except ones by The Cure) sustain their appeal, energy and focus.
Shit I was born in '96 and this shit sounds like something out of a lucid dream. Only seen a half hour of Trainspotting too randomly at a friend's gouze.
Yup The Cure hit the same. So great. Instilled a love of techno (as we called it in the 90s as high school kids) or house music deep inside of me. I could also listen to it for a weekend. Also, I love the references without shame to babes and babes and babes and wet tampons. Yikes. Gross. Also, stop with the velvet mouth stuff. I am clearly 44 and old. Shouting LAGERRRR LAGER. Okay, mega whitething. Are you making this up on the fly? I love those lyrics. Makes no sense, except …girls and drinking. I mean. Don’t get me wrong. The best things in life..I’m a girl and I drink. This song wears me OUT these days. It’s almost ten minutes. I could clean a bathroom and make tea in less time. You were fresh outta college so you’re a bit older than I but..let’s go back to the 90s? Take my hand.
I spent my July 97. in England and in Manchester Virgin store I bought my first CD ever, Trainspotting soundtrack. I was 17. And now you ask me what I feel when I bump into this tune with 43 on my back? I feel like bursting into tears, that's what I feel. And when I try to explain to youngsters that 20s are the best yet shortest decade that will never return I see they just don't understand my language.
If anybody watches trainspotting, the scene when begbie brings Renton down for a cig. This song kicks in as the smoke hits Rentons face. Brilliant film , direction n soundtrack. Say no more 👍
I remember watching this as a kid realising my dad had the same problem they did watching them go through what they did in the film scared me for the rest of my childhood years but my dad got clean he chose life his kids his grandkids I love him so much so much respect for that man 💙
GTiR23 The Chameleons are pure Ether and Dream-like sounds, Script of the Bridge and What does anything mean, simply masterpieces. "Nostalgia" is my favorite. Cocteau Twins, Slowdive, also beautiful.
MAGICAL 90S...❤BEST ERA OR OUR LIVES...MUSIC( HANDS DOWN THE BEST ERA EVEN POP WAS GREAT)AND THE BEST MOVIES EVER..

MORE UNIQUE...WITHOUT SHITTY INSTAGRAM AND FB..NOWADAYS WE ARE SLAVES OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND MORE LONELY THAN EVER...AND WITH GARBAGE POP MUSIC AND MOVIES WITHOUT PASSION... ..MISS 90S SO MUCH..WISH I COULD LIVE THIS CRAZY ERA ONCE AGAIN...
I was at a festival in the uk last summer. We were right at the front for the previous set but were talking about leaving to get drinks soon when a 40-something-banker-type guy turns around and says in a gravelly voice “you’re not going to want to miss this one.” I had no idea how right he was until the first few chords of this song blast out into the crowd and we’re blinded by lazer beams. A tidal wave of memories hit me like a brick wall from when I was too young to be watching trainspotting and letting it envelop me and my life. It was a feeling that could not be replicated. Ever.
When I hear this song, my life passes before my eyes. The great 90s, I love that decade forever and I hope we can all have a carefree party again someday.
The fact we are even commenting on RUclips means those days are well and truly gone. It's shit but if you truly wanna experience those days again find people who are willing to leave their phones in the house. Go into the middle of a feild on a beautiful sunny day and get fucking mashed
Listening to this as I approach my 42 birthday tomorrow. My little brother overdosed on Sept 1, 37 years old, after 5 months of coming off of heroin and being clean. He thought he could handle fentanyl and he couldn’t. Please remember when you get clean - you can’t ever go back. Only forward.
Why is it I cry every time I hear this? So many good memories of people, places and experiences...love it sooo much. Sounds like it was made yesterday.
This is one of those tunes I can belt out of my speakers as loud as I can... fantastic. If you listen to all of the instruments it's absolute genius...and that drum beat at 1.38 sends shivers down me. Then the drum beat changes at 2.24 where there are about six or seven beats per second. Love it. Love and miss the 90s!
the best scene in T2 Trainspotting is when they are running on the streets, and Even McGergor(Renton) thinks back when they were teenagers, running exactly at the same part of the street, and then this song is being played...I literally got goosebumps at that scene...
I cannot overstate just how awesome those last 2,5 minutes are, from when the strings fade in. The percussion is so wonderfully layered with all those little cymbals, hi-hats and claps. True classic techno jewel this track.
"The truth is that I'm a bad person. But, that's gonna change - I'm going to change. This is the last of that sort of thing. Now I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life."
I’m going to jail for the first time. What advice do you give me. Had my friend tell me where a big guy eyed up his watch. Chris took it off, threw it on the ground stood on it. And said “there you have it”.
20 years ago today (it was father's day, mind you) my dad became no more. This song reminds me of a better time, watching great movies like this on the couch with my brother, mother, and of course him. Fuck I miss those times. Where the hell did 2 decades go? Blink of an eye. Miss you dad.
"But Begbie, I couldn't give a shit about him. And Sick Boy, well, he'd have done the same to me if only he'd have thought of it first. And Spud, well, okay, I felt sorry for Spud -- he never hurt anybody."
I can remember the time when I first heard that song in 1995. I was playing games on my pc (X-Wing, to be precise), and contrary to my habit to have the game sound on my stereo, I had tuned into some radio station instead. I can't remember why I did that, but it must've been a sign from the universe. Imagine this 14-years-old kiddie, playing some sim game with his joystick and listening to Born Slippy at around 11pm in the evening. It was a remarkable experience I'll never forget.
This is my tune to freedom. Walking away from the mess, the rot and chaos that my former life was. Heard this 10 years later and the feelings just came alive. Thank you ❤
Brings me back to the 90's. Seattle to London and back a few times: cool girls, great music, and far too many drugs, but this was life for those of us drinking deeply in those days. This book and subsequent film managemed to capture that zeitgeist perfectly.
I'm in my 30's, hadn't watched this film since it came out in the 90's, I watched it again last night, what a fucking master piece! I recommend anyone who hasn't seen it for a while to give it a re-run, you won't regret it.
A child of the 90s and 2000s EDM scene and raves, I drenched myself in this stuff. Judge me all you want, but deep EDM is like classical music to me with a massive beat and meaning. My eye's looking like dinner plates (hmmm, guess why), deep philosophic and yet primal reaction to this insane music. I have never ever been in a group of people so gorgeous than those time with my EDM circle of friends some of whom were DJs and they were my dearest friends. Yeah ok, have a crack at me but you're never gonna take away from me those amazing moments, big name DJs, at least 16 mates on the town seeing the best DJs of the time and everyone is in such a great place. No violence, no crap, pure enjoyment with really smart music with a message and a shake your arse off attitude. Why not?
Thru all the comments on this vid ur's is the most special n heart warming one...bcuz I'm also a 90s n 2000s kid n edm,techno,house n dubstep was the only genre of music I really listened to.
as long as you dont mean the rubbish EDM crap like garrix & hardwell then im on your side haha 90s & possibly up to 2002-2003 was the best time ever for dance music until all hell broke lose & we had bieber fever
Underworld is my favourite Stand... in the entire series, full stop. It's one of those stands where you see it for a good chunk of time but it still feels like they barely even scratched the surface of everything that it's capable of.
Although I wasn’t born until 95, this song brings back nostalgia for me. My parents had me at the time this was filmed, split soon after and my mum passed away in 06. So I feel connected to their youth through this film and music. I never knew my dad until 2016 when I was 21 and a few months later we went to the cinema to watch Trainspotting as it is his favourite film (I’d never heard of it) and then a few days later T2 came out so we watched that as well. We haven’t spoken for a few years now sadly us being close was short lived but Trainspotting is now one of my favourite films and whenever I watch it I feel very emotional and nostalgic❤️
@@MatrixEdit exactly. live and relationships are not easy,bt short and fast running. speak with who you feel connected, untill you regret you havent done it...
This track drives and there’s no bass! It’s a stripped back beast with pads that take you to another dimension. The vocals present a concept of a movie besides trainspotting. Absolutely class act, pure creativity here.
the lyrics may not make sense but this song is absolutely beautiful. You can listen to it if you're sad, happy or absolutely bladdered. Will never ever get old.. thank you underworld for this masterpiece of a tune 🙌 ps. Choose Life always x
Last year I watched Trainspotting 1 and 2 with my parents. I had never seen Trainspotting but they had both watched it back when it came out in the 90's, they were around 20 years old back then. A couple days after watching the first Trainspotting we went to watch T2 Trainspotting and as we watched it I realized that the movie was about aging and growing older. Knowing this while sitting there with my parents who were then in their late 40's, I don't know, I just get very emotional when I hear that melody at the start of this song.
Yep , I like your parents I’m am late 40s I Saw trainspotting when released as a young addict now 15 yrs clean so I to get emotional at the beginning of that track. Tar colin
I can clearly remember skipping class to buy beer for the very first time and sneak into a projection room to see Trainspotting, after we got drunk inside the school we went out and played basketball til the day turned to night. I felt like a small adult for the first time, the first time I actually choose life.
Those first few notes hit my feels like a truck. Both good and bad memories flood my head as this song continues along the track it was set upon. This song just hits the right feels and it never gets old. The memories. The laughs. The pain. The love. The life I'm living and will continue to live.
"Born Slippy (Nuxx)" - Underworld Lyrics: Drive boy, dog boy Dirty, numb angel boy In the doorway, boy She was a lipstick boy She was a beautiful boy And tears boy And all in your innerspace, boy You had hand girls boy and steel boy You had chemicals, boy I've grown so close to you, boy And you just groan, boy She said "comeover- comeover" She smiled at you, boy Drive boy, dog boy Dirty, numb angel boy In the doorway, boy She was a lipstick boy She was a beautiful boy And tears boy And all in your innerspace, boy You had hand girls boy and steel boy You had chemicals boy I've grown so close to you, boy And you just groan, boy She said "comeover- comeover" She smiled at you, boy Let your feelings slip, boy But never your mask, boy Random blonde bio, high density rhythm Blonde boy, blonde country, blonde- high density You are my drug, boy You're real, boy Speak to me and boy, Dog, dirty, numb, cracking boy You get wet, boy Big- big time, boy Acid bear boy Babes and babes and babes and babes and babes And remembering nothing, boy? You like my tin horn boy? and get Wet like an angel Derail You got a velvet mouth You're so succulent and beautiful Shimmering and dirty Wonderful and hot times On your telephone line You've gotten everything On your telephone And in walked an angel And look at me, your mom Squatting, pissed in a tube- hole at Tottenham Court Road I just come out of the ship Talking to the most Blonde I ever met Shouting "Lager- lager- lager- lager" Shouting "Lager- lager- lager- lager" Shouting "Lager- lager- lager- lager" Shouting "Lager- lager- lager" Shouting "Mega- mega white thing Mega- mega white thing Mega- mega white thing Mega- mega" Shouting "lager- lager- lager- lager Mega- mega white thing- Mega- mega white thing" So many things to see and do In the tube hole, true Blonde going back to Romford Mega- mega- mega- going back to Romford Hi mom, are you having fun? And now are you on your way To a new tension? Headache
It’s not just a music it’s the whole life, your youth in 4 minutes. It’s not just your memories. It’s a masterpiece that makes you just happy wherever you are
This song reminds me of my fight to live life with optimism without falling again into a depressive state because I already went through that from my early childhood years, but I think I also will choose life. 😢
I hate that I barely caught the extreme tail end of it. I went to my first rave in 2006 when I was 14 and I just had this feeling that it was an echo from a different time. When I was like 6 or 7 I had seen raves on TV and in movies, and heard stories from friends' older siblings and I was really looking forward to it. It was fun, but after the first one, the rest of the underground raves I went to got broken up by the cops within an hour or two. Sometimes they were there before people even got set up. I did get to experience the heyday of emo but that's not nearly as good as the 90s rave scene. There were bad vibes all around, lots of drama and abusers. I don't know if raves had the same problem but it wasn't remembered because the internet wasn't around, or if it was less of an issue because ravers were slightly older than emo kids or something.
@@hjibakkkihjibakkki6408 you're older than me. I missed out on goth too, especially pre-Columbine goth. Mall goth was played out by 2007. They're just trends though. The more important thing was that young people were spending more time online and playing video games. That and the 2008 recession closed a lot of meeting places, and then in the early 2010s those places were gentrified.
I’ll never forget my best friend’s wedding in the 1990s. He was marrying a girl I sorta kinda had a thing for in the ‘80s, and I was the driver of her limo. She asked me to put this song on to calm her nerves. So I cranked this one for as much as the limo stereo could take. It’s a moment I’ve never forgotten, and they’re still very happily married with three great kids. Still my best friends too
This song gives me such powerful flashbacks to the 90s. Just sad that no other decade I will see in my lifetime will even slightly compare to the 90s. I'm just glad I was there
MAGICAL 90S...❤BEST ERA OR OUR LIVES...MUSIC( HANDS DOWN THE BEST ERA EVEN POP WAS GREAT)AND THE BEST MOVIES EVER..

I'm lucky that I lived the 90s as a teenager. Best years of my life, best music ever. Saw them at radio 1 Belfast gig 2018 - one best nights ever ! "Choose life!" Saw them at radio 1 Belfast gig 2018 - one best nights ever ! "Choose life!"
A lot you youngsters have no idea how weird those days were. Everything was wild. You could buy a 3 bed house in London for just £100 000 or just squat in one. We thought Tony Blair was great and the ecstasy was pure. How I miss those days. Now people have their faces fixated on their phones wondering why they can't "connect" with others when the truth is they are surrounded by like minded people.
Jon your comment really hit me. I'm only 18 so I'm part of this new generation obsessed with technology. I was at a club last night and so many people just constantly taking photos like fkn hell what are you doing. Much less people just get lost in it and feels the vibe and connects with others. Best part about clubbing is speaking to new people spreading the vibe, no inhibitions just primal enjoyment. our obsession with technology takes us too far away from living in the immediate moment. X
"Now I've justified this to myself in all sorts of ways. It wasn't a big deal, just a minor betrayal. Or we'd outgrown each other, you know, that sort of thing. But let's face it, I ripped them off - my so called mates. But Begbie, I couldn't give a shit about him. And Sick Boy, well he'd done the same to me, if he'd only thought of it first. And Spud, well okay, I felt sorry for Spud - he never hurt anybody. So why did I do it? I could offer a million answers - all false. The truth is that I'm a bad person. But, that's gonna change - I'm going to change. This is the last of that sort of thing. Now I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life. I'm looking forward to it already. I'm gonna be just like you. The job, the family, the fucking big television. The washing machine, the car, the compact disc and electric tin opener, good health, low cholesterol, dental insurance, mortgage, starter home, leisure wear, luggage, three piece suite, DIY, game shows, junk food, children, walks in the park, nine to five, good at golf, washing the car, choice of sweaters, family Christmas, indexed pension, tax exemption, clearing gutters, getting by, looking ahead, the day you die."
You are a genuine old-school electronica fan... you get into this stuff through Jean Michel Jarre and/or Kraftwerk? 😁 Solidarity my wrinkly raver brother! 👊
seeing this movie for the first time was such an insane experience. my dad had highly recommended it and I'm so glad because it remains one of my favorites.
Virginia Bellabarba don’t go back to it it will destroy you and your loved ones your feel guilty about missing things and never get over it which will put you into a deeper hole just take it one day at a time progress is progress
Bad boys, bad boys ! 💓 The Roland piano tune is so much like a revelation or some sweet fond memories... no matter how much time passes, somethings can never really be forgotten.
Millennials, please don't get offended by people reminiscing and feeling nostalgic while listening to this. This movie captured the essence of a era and a generation. This was before social media and the directors understood that what they were filming, was timeless. This movie connects with so many people because it is about core relationships, and transitioning to adulthood. Life before... Facebook.
@@thotslayer9914 If nobody is sure what anybody really means when talking to each other, how can we ever really see each other? Not blaming you. Just saying we can do better on the internet.
I was a junkie back in the 90s and early 00's however 1 thing stuck in my mind whilst watching trainspotting, and that is choose life, so I did, I also shall never forget those immortal words from Francis begbies mouth when he said, no way would I poison myself with that shite!! Legendary words for Robert carlyle who played him, therefore I never ever did heroine, thank God almighty.
I would have to say that this movie single-handed prevented me from ever putting a needle into my arm. I did get addicted to prescription opiates, but that was a far cry from the hell on earth that would be heroin addiction. My heart goes out to anyone having to go through that, just know the only way out is through.
@@robmiddleton01 "They said" who's they mate? Or is that your take on it and you lack the courage to make a statement. Two examples of how this film helped others and you wade in with the mythical "they" Well done champion, well done.
*CHOOSE LIFE* God I miss the 90s and being a teenager.. everything was so new and exciting. This song (and Trainspotting) bring me right back to those sweet and sorrowful days
People say: What happened: you were always there and then you were gone? When did you get here? How is it that I didn't see you? Where were you? And I smile sweetly, gently and then think or say, "I was born slippery." Thank you, sean7000 for keeping this anthem alive!
This song used to amp me up in my youth, but the sense of nostalgic melancholy that comes with it these days really hits home that I'm getting old. The wanton abandon of teenage years and early 20's now a distant memory, viewed only through rose tinted glasses.
@@Adultguj enjoy it. I'm 33 next month and spent too much of my 20's doing overtime. I skipped Ibiza in 2019 because of work, and obviously haven't been able to go since because of lockdown. It's a fleeting thing, but there have been moments I knew I was living the good days.
acabo de ver la película Trainspotting y lo primero que hice cuando termino, fue agarrar el celular y buscar esta joya. He estado en depresión y tmb he usado drogas y aunque esa etapa de mi vida ya quedó atrás, todavía recuerdo como me sentía en esos dias cuando me encerraba en mi cuarto y lloraba de la impotencia. Esta canción me lleva a esos mementos y se siente bien al saber que pude salir de eso y ahora soy una persona “normal” con trabajo casa metas y una mascota que mantener.
This music makes me feel like that gif of the man in Ren and Stimpy suddenly waking up Ex, if you see this, thanks for making me watch this movie, I really hope heroin didn't get you
Watched trainspotting 2 last night they done a great sequel to it . Had a little tiny bit of this song in it to boy it takes you back to the good old days of fun and clubbing , gone but never forgotten
Everytime I hear that song and as soon the bass kicks in I‘m 24 again ... flashing lights ... sweating ... packed club ... some drugs ... dancing ... girls ... kissing ... black fades into blue ... early Sunday morning
listening to this song after choosing life is so weird. makes me remember all the good memories and friends but also all the hurt and pain. it makes me think about my whole life in hindsight. i just hope my old mates were able live a better life and didnt keep going down the rabbit hole no where
Never did hard drugs before. I think watching this in the 90’s as a teen is what kept me away! Thank you Trainspotting!! I still have my old CD soundtrack too!
God, that opening 30 seconds is like a time warp back to the 90's... If you lived through that time, you can listen to those 30 seconds and remember where you were that beautiful summer, when nothing mattered, and everyday lasted forever and blended into the next..... what a time that was.
I remember the exact address of where I was when I first heard this
those days my mum said sounds good but when the song really starts she then said oh shit it's crap and keep doing her things :D
Man you're 100^ right, great full for moonshine and moving shadow tho

This song transcends time and space. Transports me back to 1996 fresh out of college and choosing life. It never gets old or dated. I could and have listened to it on repeat for a weekend. Rarely does a song of this length (except ones by The Cure) sustain their appeal, energy and focus.
Atemporal
Shit I was born in '96 and this shit sounds like something out of a lucid dream. Only seen a half hour of Trainspotting too randomly at a friend's gouze.
@@salamandress born in 82, and yeah, we'd be hanging with this
Honestly I'd say that "You wanted a hit" is a good candidate. Super long intro but the long buildup is so worth it.
Yup
The Cure hit the same. So great. Instilled a love of techno (as we called it in the 90s as high school kids) or house music deep inside of me. I could also listen to it for a weekend. Also, I love the references without shame to babes and babes and babes and wet tampons. Yikes. Gross. Also, stop with the velvet mouth stuff.
I am clearly 44 and old. Shouting LAGERRRR LAGER. Okay, mega whitething. Are you making this up on the fly? I love those lyrics. Makes no sense, except …girls and drinking. I mean. Don’t get me wrong. The best things in life..I’m a girl and I drink. This song wears me OUT these days. It’s almost ten minutes. I could clean a bathroom and make tea in less time.
You were fresh outta college so you’re a bit older than I but..let’s go back to the 90s? Take my hand.
I spent my July 97. in England and in Manchester Virgin store I bought my first CD ever, Trainspotting soundtrack. I was 17. And now you ask me what I feel when I bump into this tune with 43 on my back? I feel like bursting into tears, that's what I feel.

..MISS 90S SO MUCH..WISH I COULD LIVE THIS CRAZY ERA ONCE AGAIN...
I was at a festival in the uk last summer. We were right at the front for the previous set but were talking about leaving to get drinks soon when a 40-something-banker-type guy turns around and says in a gravelly voice “you’re not going to want to miss this one.” I had no idea how right he was until the first few chords of this song blast out into the crowd and we’re blinded by lazer beams.
A tidal wave of memories hit me like a brick wall from when I was too young to be watching trainspotting and letting it envelop me and my life. It was a feeling that could not be replicated. Ever.
When I hear this song, my life passes before my eyes. The great 90s, I love that decade forever and I hope we can all have a carefree party again someday.
It's not coming back, mate, they never do.
Nostalgia
@@ositabebe6122 Es Cierto. Aquí en Chile siempre Recordamos esta Canción. Saludos desde Chile.
The fact we are even commenting on RUclips means those days are well and truly gone. It's shit but if you truly wanna experience those days again find people who are willing to leave their phones in the house. Go into the middle of a feild on a beautiful sunny day and get fucking mashed
@@Chriswallace0405 people still get mashed in fields at free parties. WE're just too old to see it
Saw this live with my Dad in Detroit at movement 2023, so glad to be alive and off what almost consumed us. Was magic that night.
Consumed?
Listening to this as I approach my 42 birthday tomorrow. My little brother overdosed on Sept 1, 37 years old, after 5 months of coming off of heroin and being clean. He thought he could handle fentanyl and he couldn’t. Please remember when you get clean - you can’t ever go back. Only forward.

Hahahaha !!! The spinning cups will never be the same @@sirgallahad4
This is one of those tunes I can belt out of my speakers as loud as I can... fantastic. If you listen to all of the instruments it's absolute genius...and that drum beat at 1.38 sends shivers down me. Then the drum beat changes at 2.24 where there are about six or seven beats per second. Love it. Love and miss the 90s!
the best scene in T2 Trainspotting is when they are running on the streets, and Even McGergor(Renton) thinks back when they were teenagers, running exactly at the same part of the street, and then this song is being played...I literally got goosebumps at that scene...
I found the scene where they are lying more great
My best friend and I of 20 years went to see T2 at the cinema together. I'll admit I had tears in my eye for all the memories the film brought back
💯
One of the worst films I've ever seen, the sequel. The first is a great film. What a shame.
@@BertBobRobert I disagree it was alright
I cannot overstate just how awesome those last 2,5 minutes are, from when the strings fade in. The percussion is so wonderfully layered with all those little cymbals, hi-hats and claps. True classic techno jewel this track.
"The truth is that I'm a bad person. But, that's gonna change - I'm going to change. This is the last of that sort of thing. Now I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life."

But classic track 👍
"But Begbie, I couldn't give a shit about him. And Sick Boy, well, he'd have done the same to me if only he'd have thought of it first. And Spud, well, okay, I felt sorry for Spud -- he never hurt anybody."
Wow man you should become a writer,that sound's like something from the scri....ow.
yuh
Begbie was too noided
True spud didn't hurt anybody but he did cover Gail, her mother & her father in alot of shite !
MC Ride should be in the next trainspotting.
I can remember the time when I first heard that song in 1995. I was playing games on my pc (X-Wing, to be precise), and contrary to my habit to have the game sound on my stereo, I had tuned into some radio station instead. I can't remember why I did that, but it must've been a sign from the universe. Imagine this 14-years-old kiddie, playing some sim game with his joystick and listening to Born Slippy at around 11pm in the evening. It was a remarkable experience I'll never forget.
Saw Paul Van Dyk close a 3+ hour set with this at Guvernment in Toronto in Feb. 2001. Still the best set I've ever seen live.

firenze649 👍🏼💯🙏
I use this intro for my morning alarm. It helps me wake up because of an intense coctail of emotions this tune brings to my mind.
Da, odlicno za alarm
This song feels like a punch to my gut. Something about it leaves me breathless. Makes me 21 again.
Brings me back to the 90's. Seattle to London and back a few times: cool girls, great music, and far too many drugs, but this was life for those of us drinking deeply in those days. This book and subsequent film managemed to capture that zeitgeist perfectly.
One of the anthems of my youth. And it only gets better with time. Absolute CLASSIC.
I'm in my 30's, hadn't watched this film since it came out in the 90's, I watched it again last night, what a fucking master piece! I recommend anyone who hasn't seen it for a while to give it a re-run, you won't regret it.
Me too :D I agree, what a great film!
The credits are running as I type.. love this movie 💉🤘🏼
Wait for the new one coming out soon.

A child of the 90s and 2000s EDM scene and raves, I drenched myself in this stuff. Judge me all you want, but deep EDM is like classical music to me with a massive beat and meaning. My eye's looking like dinner plates (hmmm, guess why), deep philosophic and yet primal reaction to this insane music. I have never ever been in a group of people so gorgeous than those time with my EDM circle of friends some of whom were DJs and they were my dearest friends. Yeah ok, have a crack at me but you're never gonna take away from me those amazing moments, big name DJs, at least 16 mates on the town seeing the best DJs of the time and everyone is in such a great place. No violence, no crap, pure enjoyment with really smart music with a message and a shake your arse off attitude. Why not?
Thru all the comments on this vid ur's is the most special n heart warming one...bcuz I'm also a 90s n 2000s kid n edm,techno,house n dubstep was the only genre of music I really listened to.
#FACTS!!
you just said my story!! LA rave scene was a Amazing time in so many lives. Lots of memories, lot of love.
as long as you dont mean the rubbish EDM crap like garrix & hardwell then im on your side haha 90s & possibly up to 2002-2003 was the best time ever for dance music until all hell broke lose & we had bieber fever

Donatello’s ability was so eerie and fitting with this song, don’t you agree?
Although I wasn’t born until 95, this song brings back nostalgia for me. My parents had me at the time this was filmed, split soon after and my mum passed away in 06. So I feel connected to their youth through this film and music. I never knew my dad until 2016 when I was 21 and a few months later we went to the cinema to watch Trainspotting as it is his favourite film (I’d never heard of it) and then a few days later T2 came out so we watched that as well. We haven’t spoken for a few years now sadly us being close was short lived but Trainspotting is now one of my favourite films and whenever I watch it I feel very emotional and nostalgic❤️
Parents are difficult, dude. I relate to this.

@@MatrixEdit exactly. live and relationships are not easy,bt short and fast running. speak with who you feel connected, untill you regret you havent done it...
Go make things right with your dad, don't think about it just do it !
After a year??
This track drives and there’s no bass! It’s a stripped back beast with pads that take you to another dimension. The vocals present a concept of a movie besides trainspotting. Absolutely class act, pure creativity here.
Tracks without bass that hit you like a train are the best!
the lyrics may not make sense but this song is absolutely beautiful. You can listen to it if you're sad, happy or absolutely bladdered. Will never ever get old.. thank you underworld for this masterpiece of a tune 🙌

so true its so good
Last year I watched Trainspotting 1 and 2 with my parents. I had never seen Trainspotting but they had both watched it back when it came out in the 90's, they were around 20 years old back then. A couple days after watching the first Trainspotting we went to watch T2 Trainspotting and as we watched it I realized that the movie was about aging and growing older. Knowing this while sitting there with my parents who were then in their late 40's, I don't know, I just get very emotional when I hear that melody at the start of this song.
Yep , I like your parents I’m am late 40s I Saw trainspotting when released as a young addict now 15 yrs clean so I to get emotional at the beginning of that track. Tar colin

I can clearly remember skipping class to buy beer for the very first time and sneak into a projection room to see Trainspotting, after we got drunk inside the school we went out and played basketball til the day turned to night. I felt like a small adult for the first time, the first time I actually choose life.

"Born Slippy (Nuxx)" - Underworld
Lyrics:
Drive boy, dog boy
Dirty, numb angel boy
In the doorway, boy
She was a lipstick boy
She was a beautiful boy
And tears boy
And all in your innerspace, boy
You had
hand girls boy
and steel boy
You had chemicals, boy
I've grown so close to you, boy
And you just groan, boy
She said "comeover- comeover"
She smiled at you, boy
Drive boy, dog boy
Dirty, numb angel boy
In the doorway, boy
She was a lipstick boy
She was a beautiful boy
And tears boy
And all in your innerspace, boy
You had
hand girls boy
and steel boy
You had chemicals boy
I've grown so close to you, boy
And you just groan, boy
She said "comeover- comeover"
She smiled at you, boy
Let your feelings slip, boy
But never your mask, boy
Random blonde bio, high density rhythm
Blonde boy, blonde country, blonde- high density
You are my drug, boy
You're real, boy
Speak to me and boy,
Dog, dirty, numb, cracking boy
You get wet, boy
Big- big time, boy
Acid bear boy
Babes and babes and babes and babes and babes
And remembering nothing, boy?
You like my tin horn boy? and get
Wet like an angel
Derail
You got a velvet mouth
You're so succulent and beautiful
Shimmering and dirty
Wonderful and hot times
On your telephone line
You've gotten everything
On your telephone
And in walked an angel
And look at me, your mom
Squatting, pissed in a tube-
hole at Tottenham Court Road
I just come out of the ship
Talking to the most

Iggy Pop's Lust For Life fills me with the same feelings as this song and as what you described. It is the closest thing to a time machine.
This song reminds me of my fight to live life with optimism without falling again into a depressive state because I already went through that from my early childhood years, but I think I also will choose life. 😢
I highly recommend the movie SUNSHINE 2007. Underworld did the soundtracks. It's an existential movie
@ Thank you for the recommendation, I’ll watch it as well
Trainspotting, released exactly 24 years ago. The greatness
P00pp
we lived a magical era ... and I believe it will never return
We sure did..
No it will not. The mid/late 90s might as well have been 10 lifetimes ago. We're never going back.
I hate that I barely caught the extreme tail end of it. I went to my first rave in 2006 when I was 14 and I just had this feeling that it was an echo from a different time. When I was like 6 or 7 I had seen raves on TV and in movies, and heard stories from friends' older siblings and I was really looking forward to it. It was fun, but after the first one, the rest of the underground raves I went to got broken up by the cops within an hour or two. Sometimes they were there before people even got set up.
I did get to experience the heyday of emo but that's not nearly as good as the 90s rave scene. There were bad vibes all around, lots of drama and abusers. I don't know if raves had the same problem but it wasn't remembered because the internet wasn't around, or if it was less of an issue because ravers were slightly older than emo kids or something.
@@RsRj-qd2cg uh our generation grew up with goth we literally have nothing to do with emo
@@hjibakkkihjibakkki6408 you're older than me. I missed out on goth too, especially pre-Columbine goth. Mall goth was played out by 2007. They're just trends though. The more important thing was that young people were spending more time online and playing video games. That and the 2008 recession closed a lot of meeting places, and then in the early 2010s those places were gentrified.
I’ll never forget my best friend’s wedding in the 1990s. He was marrying a girl I sorta kinda had a thing for in the ‘80s, and I was the driver of her limo.
She asked me to put this song on to calm her nerves. So I cranked this one for as much as the limo stereo could take. It’s a moment I’ve never forgotten, and they’re still very happily married with three great kids. Still my best friends too

A lot you youngsters have no idea how weird those days were. Everything was wild. You could buy a 3 bed house in London for just £100 000 or just squat in one. We thought Tony Blair was great and the ecstasy was pure. How I miss those days. Now people have their faces fixated on their phones wondering why they can't "connect" with others when the truth is they are surrounded by like minded people.
So deeeeep
Jon your comment really hit me. I'm only 18 so I'm part of this new generation obsessed with technology. I was at a club last night and so many people just constantly taking photos like fkn hell what are you doing. Much less people just get lost in it and feels the vibe and connects with others. Best part about clubbing is speaking to new people spreading the vibe, no inhibitions just primal enjoyment. our obsession with technology takes us too far away from living in the immediate moment.

One of my pet peeves, something that really shites me is people on the phones seemingly all the time.
Aye. And I'm pumped for Trainspotting 2 to come out. So glad they decided to do it.
Original cast
"Now I've justified this to myself in all sorts of ways. It wasn't a big deal, just a minor betrayal. Or we'd outgrown each other, you know, that sort of thing.
But let's face it, I ripped them off - my so called mates. But Begbie, I couldn't give a shit about him. And Sick Boy, well he'd done the same to me, if he'd only thought of it first. And Spud, well okay, I felt sorry for Spud - he never hurt anybody. So why did I do it? I could offer a million answers - all false.
The truth is that I'm a bad person. But, that's gonna change - I'm going to change. This is the last of that sort of thing. Now I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life. I'm looking forward to it already. I'm gonna be just like you. The job, the family, the fucking big television.

I was a junkie back in the 90s and early 00's however 1 thing stuck in my mind whilst watching trainspotting, and that is choose life, so I did, I also shall never forget those immortal words from Francis begbies mouth when he said, no way would I poison myself with that shite!! Legendary words for Robert carlyle who played him, therefore I never ever did heroine, thank God almighty.
I would have to say that this movie single-handed prevented me from ever putting a needle into my arm. I did get addicted to prescription opiates, but that was a far cry from the hell on earth that would be heroin addiction. My heart goes out to anyone having to go through that, just know the only way out is through.
I remember they said movie encouraged heroin use. I feel the opposite is more truthful!

People say: What happened: you were always there and then you were gone? When did you get here? How is it that I didn't see you? Where were you? And I smile sweetly, gently and then think or say, "I was born slippery." Thank you, sean7000 for keeping this anthem alive!
Thanks, Araki.
This song remembers everything that happened in the ground from the past
73 but this still make me want to get up and dance never get old stay young in spirit and heart
Choose life!
Flashbacks..memories....youth...disco.....girls....I love it !
OMG take me back to the 90s ❤
For me clearly one of the greatest anthems of classic electronic music
Yes, Rank1 - Airwave is another.
This song used to amp me up in my youth, but the sense of nostalgic melancholy that comes with it these days really hits home that I'm getting old. The wanton abandon of teenage years and early 20's now a distant memory, viewed only through rose tinted glasses.
Well said
Makes me smile .. Makes me cry .. Turn It UP .. ♥️💔
I can relate. 28 right now, but soon I'll leave my twenties and with it the last bit of my youth.
@@Adultguj enjoy it. I'm 33 next month and spent too much of my 20's doing overtime. I skipped Ibiza in 2019 because of work, and obviously haven't been able to go since because of lockdown. It's a fleeting thing, but there have been moments I knew I was living the good days.
@@squoblat very true. 35 myself. Rose colored glasses but we made the best of it, or did we? Cant be a tourist of my own past as Sick Boy said in T2!
acabo de ver la película Trainspotting y lo primero que hice cuando termino, fue agarrar el celular y buscar esta joya. He estado en depresión y tmb he usado drogas y aunque esa etapa de mi vida ya quedó atrás, todavía recuerdo como me sentía en esos dias cuando me encerraba en mi cuarto y lloraba de la impotencia. Esta canción me lleva a esos mementos y se siente bien al saber que pude salir de eso y ahora soy una persona “normal” con trabajo casa metas y una mascota que mantener.

Felicidades maestro.
Dobře ty
This music makes me feel like that gif of the man in Ren and Stimpy suddenly waking up
Ex, if you see this, thanks for making me watch this movie, I really hope heroin didn't get you
One of the best and most powerful tracks of all time. ❤️🔥
Watched trainspotting 2 last night they done a great sequel to it .
Had a little tiny bit of this song in it to boy it takes you back to the good old days of fun and clubbing , gone but never forgotten
This song starts off slow, then it turns into insane rave music.
This track is basically the feeling of coming up and back down again on drugs
Way to spot the obvious dickhead
Life style
That 90s vibe. 💯
yes indeed. and i love it.
14 years it took me but I have discovered this little gem at last. What a delightful song.
Everytime I hear that song and as soon the bass kicks in I‘m 24 again ... flashing lights ... sweating ... packed club ... some drugs ... dancing ... girls ... kissing ... black fades into blue ... early Sunday morning
Perfectly said.
Almost same, I'm 24 .. alcohol, a little weed, boys, kissing, groping. Ended up in a burger joint after Micky's closes at 2 a.m. to be young again.

Fuck Yeah
I'm 26 right now B)
listening to this song after choosing life is so weird. makes me remember all the good memories and friends but also all the hurt and pain. it makes me think about my whole life in hindsight. i just hope my old mates were able live a better life and didnt keep going down the rabbit hole no where
Never did hard drugs before. I think watching this in the 90’s as a teen is what kept me away! Thank you Trainspotting!! I still have my old CD soundtrack too!
I once read someone criticizing the movie because it "glorified drug use". I thought, WTF movie did you watch?!
