Slave Ambient, the album this is taken from, is a real gem.
This is the best song Bruce Springsteen never wrote.
🤣
He's a political asshole now but I'll always love "hungry heart"
@@FHSBlackSwarm Do you love Trump, asshole ?
@@bernardregis8469 I voted for him twice but I don't love him. People hate him so much though that they.put this goof who can't even form coherent sentences in office. How about them gas prices? Lol
@@FHSBlackSwarm Clap....clap.....Good job parroting Fox et al.
Be proud sheep.
I just heard this for the first time and then played it like 20 times in a row. This song is insane. The video is damn near exactly what I expected too. This is the !@#4.
It's honestly like Bruce Springsteen in his punk phase, high on speed.
And it's awesome lol
+ramblin man Working on the Highway is what I think of.
could you be more specific? i could see myself really liking to hear that
Sure thing! Darkness on the Edge of town album is really punk like. I know he was hanging at CBGB's around this period.
Adam Raised A Cain, live version of 'Prove it all Night'(78 Passiac black/white version omg). Let me know what you think! kamalmanzukie
great, thanks!
nothing punk about Darkness...he was going through some bad shit, not channeling anything punk.
Driving home after a rough day, evening sun cutting through an atmosphere thick with the day's dramas... that's what this song feels like to me...one of their best.
I'd like to sweep through the landscape late at night in a Chevrolet Corvette enjoying "Under the Pressure", "Baby Missiles" and "Your Love Is Calling My Name."
The Corvette - produced in Bowling Green, KY - is the American fighter pilots favorite sports car.
I can understand why, but unfortunately I don't have a 'Vette (my neighbor, though, lucky guy - has one)
One of War’s more up tempo tracks. What a treat, decorated in dreamy instrumentation!
This was a major highlight for me at Bonnaroo 2012. Love this song.
Dire Straits, Bruce Springsteen, maybe even Talking Heads kind of vibe. It's pretty incredible especially when the harmonica kicks in....
this is the first song that i heard from them and i was in love from that moment on
It has an arcade fire keep the car running vibe which is cool
obsessed.
likewise. theres a new album out now too
I was just shown this. Now I am too.
Totally.
Listened to this over 100 times, and it's still just as amazing.
reminds me of a drunken autumn evening bumpin into old heads and meeting new ones
very arcade fire and really good
video director is so talented
This is what you get when you mix Dire Straits - Walk of life with Bruce Sringsteen - I'm on fire
so true
Human Touch accelerated
Recommended listening while driving through Philly or Trenton with the windows down.
In fact, I think I'm gonna do just that.
love all their stuff, but find myself listening to this and brothers the most.
A similar feeling to hanging out the car window on the motorway at 100mph like a bloodhound freaking out! Er ...if you know what i mean? Love it
yup
fuck yes just discovered this and I'm in love
Coming to me in July here in the best city in the world 🌍💗
Just astonishingly good.
yes!
True that!
The War On Drugs
Baby Missiles:
I'm on the back of a new belief
And on the back of a new belief
My friend rides all alone
Yeah, he's up and down like a new Jack Tone
He was a part of the new machine
He felt alive in the new machine
My friend dies all alone
Yeah, just up and down like a new Jack Tone
Yeah, you want to talk about going down
Yeah, you'd rather make a young man proud
You should have seen all the rattling in my brain
And in the wake of a northeast bus
I came on my back like a northeast perch
You should have seen all the rattling in my way
Just the sound of a northeast bus coming back here
Because I don't mind when the pioneers go soft on me
It's just the sound of a northeast bus on its back babe
You got your head in the common field
Adjust your hands with the common touch
I was alive on the new machine
He felt alive in the new machine
My friend rides all alone
Yeah he's up and down like a new Jack Tone
He wanna leave but he don't know how
He want to try but he don't know why
He's going to lean on the back of me
Like a slide on the back of b-b-belief
Just the sound of a northeast bus coming back here
Because I don't mind when the pioneers go soft on me
It's just the sound of a northeast bus on its back babe
You got your head in the common field
Adjust your hands with the common touch
Awsomeness..Great Vid!
i randomly had this in my itunes library and didnt know it. played and fucking sighed of relief. there is great music.
Same rhythm as 'Boys of Summer', but oh, so much more enjoyable.
THANK YOU! This song reminded me of a song that my dad would always play when I was very young, but I couldn't quite think of which one. Adding this on to the computer+music collection i'm giving him, he will be surprised! Thanks again
saw them last night... this was the second song they played. so fucking good.
+Leavemealoneabout Usingmyname any other suggestions from this band?
miester rhovanion I definitely recommend Red Eyes and Burning
This will always remind me of my Keane show!
Music/video combo's like this demand a special 'extra-big-thumbs-up' facility on CZcams.
on repeat.....
I really like this song!
I LOVE THIS SONG! Been searching for this for ages, it's so upbeat!
WOW,what an amazing song, they remind me of my heroes called THE FEELIES !!!!
I don’t mind when the pioneers go soft on me.beauty that bit.
Muito bom, e vao estar este verão em Portugal! !!
I still haven't gotten "Slave Ambient". That is about to change.
When i close my eyes i also hear THE TALKING HEADS sing and play!!!
Other good songs from this album are
-Best Night
-Your Love is Calling My Name, Animator and Come to the City. (Three separate songs you MUST listen to all together in order.)
-Black Water Falls
His solo stuff is super amazing!
Song Of The Day.
I was listening to this song really loud and cleaning my apt. when my mom called. She laughed at me and asked if I was rocking out to Bruce Springsteen...Spot on mom!
can't stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dire Straits - Walk of Life meets The Hooters - And We Danced meets Bruce Springsteen - Dancing in the Dark
Quite possibly the best piece of music ever! Only song that comes close is Intervention by Arcade Fire!
Rhys Williams I think you might be my music twin!
+Rhys Williams You really think so?
+Rhys Williams yer nuts... not even close.
Nostalgia demais
This song is so fucking legit
this song makes me think of dire straits´s walk of life, but it is somewhat more psychedelic
me too, and i actually like both. but this is killer.
Funny...I loved the Dire Straits and I love this
that's because the intro is just like Walk of Life by Dire Straits
@MeehKrob Nice! You nailed it right on the head.
THE song of 2011.
Some people are really missing out!
I'm on the back of a new belief
And on the back of a new belief
My friend rides all alone
Yeah, he's up and down like a new Jack Tone

great song
so 80's brah!
I knew this song merited a video for it! Love the shots of Rome!
really reminds me of: John Maus - Believer
one of the best of the best
Not to sound like a hipster AT ALL, but I knew this song before it was on Skins...
I was so proud when I heard it in the first episode of the new series, took me completely by surprise! It's especially personal to me because until summer last year (when I finished school and my whole teenage life there) I lived in Rome, where some of the video shots are from (the Colosseum, the Forum, the "centurions" etc, all familiar sights) so yeah, there you go, spilled my guts all over youtube :D x
6 people don't know the feeling of wind in their hair, cigarette in hand, music up to 11 and pushing the accelerator into the floor mat, that, or they just take the train everywhere....
Great song, video great for non-epileptics...
Love the song! Great Video too!!!
Great song *-*
Se siente en el alma
Amen.
That's exactly what I thought! The best record Bruce never did.
why do you only find this at 5am? or at least its 5am now. i dont know how many times i replayed it
this is cool i like it
Skins UK, Season 6 Episiode 01 (:
Skins always the best music
it's your destiny.
good one pal
Holy shit
@TheBurningBuddhist If you wanna compare it with other stuff, a heavy Springsteen vibe is way more obvious imo.
Love this song. But it reminds me of Don Henley "The boys of summer"
@top20modernrock
maybe you're more with it than you think...tell your friends and share on FB etc ...the song DOES deserve the attention!
fuck yeah! this is MY christmas music
Tim Rice-Oxley sent me
Austin City Limits 2012, acoustics ruined this unfortunately but still love it!
of course he is
The soundtrack of keane walking onto the stage :p
Reminds me of Dire Straits- Walk of Life
@MrKaneShadow spot on :)
and there should be more drugs in wars...
So Good!!! Glad I got to enjoy this track before the masses got there hands on it.
their, but yeah
Sounds like walk of life by Dire Straight, with whoops from "State Trooper" on Nebraska by Springsteen, mixed with another springsteen song I can't place.
hey, this reminds me of bruce springstean
Isn't this crazy??!
SKIIIIIIIIINSSSS!
Impossible to get all the lyrics right... has anyone succeeded?
just keep waiting for the chorus to arrive... and it never does.
he was.. and still contributed to this album.
sasquatch festival 2012
@jessacatlinsssss You do know he used to be in this band right? The lead singer still plays guitar for Kurt Vile on tour sometimes.
we did a session with these guys on our site - its almost as incredible as they are!
listen on 0.75
I hear the Cure in there.
ROMA ROMA ROMA
REPPIN PHILLY
I LOVE these guys, but I have to laugh, because their budget for videos must be about 20 bucks. Actually it's way more fun than some big corporate production!
lalalalala la hey
yeah, because 'Nam was fun for everyone.
