    My 18yr old son came to me a few days ago and asked if I'd heard of a band called "James". I told him this is one of my favourite songs of all time. He was amazed that a dinosaur like myself had such good taste in music. Faith in humanity restored.

    In 2003 I bought a gently used 2001 GSXR 1000. Put the buds in the ears and 10 seconds into this song I was at 100 mph topping out in third gear on a great 2 mile stretch of a straight road near Warsaw Ohio. If you ride it is still an amazing song to play while ripping it or just cruising. Yea I'm 62 and lived to tell the tale.

    In the US, bizarrely, out of nowhere, "CNN Headline News" played a snippet of this video as they were going to commercial. As the baby of the family who always just liked what my older siblings did (Depeche Mode, New Order, Bunnymen, etc) up that point, I fell instantly in love with James aged only 11, and from just a 20 second snippet!, and it was the first band I "found" before my siblings. Never looked back, I love and appreciate more than I can ever express how much Tim's lyrics and the boys' awesome music has done for me and my life, carried me through the awkward teenage years with (at least a decent semblance of) grace, and after carried me on and on through both great times and bad! xxxxxxxx

    This is the song how I discovered The James. Was Fall '92 and I was 15, and the Italian MTV put the song in rotation probably for just a couple of weeks. Destiny wanted that I was zapping around MTV and after watching the video and listening the song...I was hooked. I remember days just waiting for probably the once daily rotation. Anyway soon the song went out of rotation. I did everything to get the Seven album that a 15 years old kid could have done just for this song. Unfortunately, in Italy, all major music stores didn't even know who The James were. During Christmas '92 I entered in a independent, alternative, little music shop in Rome specialized only in rock, progressive and punk and I don't even remember for what. On a high shelf, up to the ceiling, there was one copy of Seven. I went directly to the cashier and told her pointing to the album "Please, give me that". Ran at home, listened and loved the entire album. Since then, never missed a James' song and listening to them every single day.
    Strange that this is the first time I watched this video after those MTV rotations.

    Such a good song. The intro immediately grabs you. Decades ago, Born of Frustration was one of those songs so recognizable and right in the zeitgeist of the period. Like so many other great songs of the 1980s and 1990s, it has disappeared except on those music stations which have an era specific format.

    My best friend used to love when I played this video from my VHS tape to him. He once told me he really liked this song, which was to me a bit of a surprise as he rarely commented on any such type of music: Simple Minds memories might be why he liked it. It has the same flavor as Don't you forget about me. And strage looking back he looked pretty alike to James vocalists face. I miss him so much. He died from diabetes 5 years ago. I think of him very often. 💌

    This song has a special meaning for me. I was living in Los Angeles in '92 when the uprising against the beating of Rodney King by LAPD happened and this song was all over the radio.
    For many of us there at the time the lyrics totally captured how we felt about the situation. It was perfect timing and whenever I hear this song I think about those tumultuous days.

      Thomas Pendergast , I was living at 92th street and Vermont during those days, alone, my younger sister had just run away with my then good friend, I went to a place where my other friends used to gather together to find someone to talk about, no one was there that evening, sat there in the parking lot listening to radio, got a six pack of beer and waited there for someone to arrive, this song came out on KROQ, it gave me a sense of loneliness, very deep loneliness, but i loved it, now my memory is not that good anymore, i don't remember what was first, the Rodney King riots or the loneliest day of my life?, but it was around the same days, it looked like a WAR zone, I wasn't able to come out of my house for more then 24 hours, until the National guard was there, boy, what a time.
