- The World Turned Upside Down always sounds best played on that green Burns Steer. Probably would have sounded even better if I hadn’t broken a string halfway through, but PUNK ROCK!

Such a killer song, and one that still gets me fired up today. "You poor take courage, you rich take care" ✊
Most of Billys lyrics make the hair on my neck stand up , sometimes with anger at the way are things were and are and sometimes with sadness at the way things were and are being a 60 odd something who remembers the 70s and 80s here in England albeit as a young naive person.
Not Billy's lyrics, though. It's a cover (Leon Rosselon wrote it)
@@charliegibbins , I was talking about all his songs , I've been listening since 83, but yes right this song wasn't his , cheers
I saw Billy supporting the style council when i was 13 and after watching my mining town destroyed by Thatcher, he and Paul Weller awoke my social conscious. I luv them for this.
Billy in my view will always be the people's poet. The vision will never cease.
What a tune!
He bloody nailed it, what a great song, thank you very much for sharing this
Danke für‘s teilen!
Die Aufnahme ist, soweit ich mich erinnere aber von 1988. Ich war bei einem der Konzerte die Billy dort gab.
Es war für mich einer der entscheidenden Momente im Leben. Ich stand sofort in Flammen und dachte:
„ja, er gibt uns eine Stimme…“
Eins der prägenden musikalischen Erlebnisse in meinem Leben.
Back then, I lived on the other side of town from Saint George's Hill. The not so posh side. Billy Bragg's lyrics really hit the spot for me. Them and us. The haves and have-nots. This song changed my life.
This is a Leon Rosselson song. Bill didn't write this.
Yes, the song is from 1988 in the GDR.
Great version of Leo Rosellson song
Leon, but yes
Uma mega responsabilidade e coragem que o acompanhou até os dias de hoje
Billy, were you using a flanger?
we wiill not bow to youir masters
1:50 that Steer is chugging like an engine
Oi Billy, Hey we both got older , but still left-wing, Grüße aus Berlin
And yet he's sucking Zionists off today on twitter. 🤷
2:00 Broken string
More like 1986?
Yes, 15.8.1986, "Lieder-Sommer der FDJ", Ost-Berlin, DDR.

I guess BB was actually Punk unlike a certain 'rotten' bloke living it up in Beverly Hills....
