    The whole song paints a good picture of what its like to go "clubbing" in the UK, mdma, losing friends in the crowd, dark rooms, bright lights, music, not caring, in the moment on the surface level, but you can go deeper into it i never really thought about it like that

      Of course I’d over analyze😂 that’s cool to hear that’s mostly just about the club scene and not as major as I thought. Good to see you man!🙌👊✊

      It absolutely nails early 2000s clubbing. The text message, no signal, drinking yourself into oblivion on 2 for £1 hooch, fighting, throwing up, bezzering up with random strangers, kebabs, sleeping in a bush because you spent your taxi money on one last round.

      Straight facts.
      Was a track for the E heads. (like me)
      Loads of The Streets tracks were ecstasy based, so I could definitely relate being a former addict.

Not saying nobody knows music, but if you're 8 when the track came out you don't know what it was like in the raves at the time. All love just semantics man. Love that it's still relevant and getting love. He was just pointing out that this was an anthem for US. Ya know the people who were at raves and having the come up and shit at the time. That's all.

The video is slightly misleading as the songs setting is a Club but I guess that was a vehicle to portray more the Story of his unfaithful girlfriend/ friend. Great reaction bud
