Just met the Hard Fi drummer in a bar in Toronto. I told him Cash machine is the soundtrack to my childhood and he bought me a Carlsberg. Cheers Hard Fi!
@@BalooUriza Came out in early 00s. I remember when it was being blasted all over the place. But whether now, a decade ago, or 1990s still rings true. We're all working for that cash machine -sigh-
they used to play the crap out of this song when it first came back. Like ALL the time. lol! The band just never got bigger. It was like many others, a one hit wonder. But this song is so good! And I'm still singing it all these years later lol
I was just thinking of that awesome line : "I scratch a living" !! I think I am on the look out for a Hard Fi CD !! Or product. Might have to get it 2nd hand though !
I found out that lots of HArdFi songs have a socioeconomic message, suburban knights talks about a generation of young adults being told they need to worry about geo politics and wars when they cannot afford paying bills. Middle eastern hollyday is about a young guy being killed in iraq and wondering when he'll see his mom again and why is she crying now he's dead.
Ninjamonkeydrummer very true..... I can vaguely remember this when it originally came out. Now all these years later Hard Fi is probably the most listened to band over the last 6 months......
Every time I'm depressed about financial ishes, I listen to this song and it makes me feel a little better. If that's what the band was aiming for, then they hit the mark pretty hard in my case.
My grandma was watching Blood & Chocolate in the living room when I was younger and I stopped dead in my tracks when this song came on. Watched the rest of this movie then ran to go find this song been one of my jams ever since
listened to this song for years and only now watching the video - so clever!! sad that these lyrics are still so relevant, I miss when people would sing about real issues
This album was like a modern day Definitely Maybe when it was released. Not at that level but the theme and meaning behind the songs. Overshadowed album and criminally underrated
Aren't we all? Ha - I actually went to college with one of these dudes. Great guy and this music is underrated big time! Still here in 2018 so they must still be doing something right I guess..
I can't believe I found this song, I thought this song was real but others told me it wasn't and this was just some sort of fever dream. thank god i now know this is a real song.
When you think of all the trash and bullshit singers/bands that made their way in to the mainstream and polluted our radios with garbage it makes it all the more sad these guys never got the recognition they deserved, they are just like this song totally underrated. Ah well, I’m still rocking this as of November 2020, up yours corona virus.
Hard-Fi should have been massive. I imagine they were popular in the UK, but here in the United States they only got a tiny bit of promotion from Atlantic Records. Especially with Kasabian broken up, we need Hard Fi to reunite and bring back anthemic rock!
What a song. What a song what else can u say to a song that u don't listen to it for 4 years and then u hear it on the radio and then blast it for the 5 days after in loop then don't listen to it for 4 years and repeat. Handful of songs do that
Kan cifcibasi Jake Burkey I remember when I played FIFA Manager 06 with my Dad when my parents WEREN'T divorced:) The memories, and the good ol' days when I was about 6-11 when I was in primary school, no exams, long summer nights staying up late playing FIFA Manager 06 and now 11 years later (I'm 17 now) and doing shitty A-Levels:(

A decade later , and more socially relevant than ever. Great album.
Didn't this come out in the 1990s?

I've loved this song for 17 years.
I'm sorry for you
You have great taste in music bro
Really underrated song....
i believed in hard fi.... was a great group but now they lost the train
Underrated by who?
Simon O'Brien the public tit
they used to play the crap out of this song when it first came back. Like ALL the time. lol! The band just never got bigger. It was like many others, a one hit wonder. But this song is so good! And I'm still singing it all these years later lol
Why is this underrated?
Back in time it had decent success...
After almost 20 years, this song still feels like I'm hearing it for the first time. Love this song!
I was just thinking of that awesome line : "I scratch a living" !! I think I am on the look out for a Hard Fi CD !! Or product. Might have to get it 2nd hand though !
I was listening to this song in 2006. Now I hope you guys you've really found your free way to live out of the box. Me, still trying
Who's there in 2020? All the people say the same thing, and really is true : Underrated Song.
Unfortunately, underatted group
check, 15 years and counting. Still a underrated band.

Damn straight! This song is awesome!

This was the shit, can't believe they never got bigger
oh i didnt know..
I think they were too sophisticated for the working class people and too blue collar for the more educated ones... The songs were great though
Ninjamonkeydrummer very true..... I can vaguely remember this when it originally came out. Now all these years later Hard Fi is probably the most listened to band over the last 6 months......
They had a couple of live performances televised on channel four and the sound quality was terrible never really heard from them again
@Blue&Green What do you mean? What did people think?

boa meu amigo, gostei de tudo isso
this band was years ahead of it's time I've been a fan since the start
My grandma was watching Blood & Chocolate in the living room when I was younger and I stopped dead in my tracks when this song came on. Watched the rest of this movie then ran to go find this song been one of my jams ever since
R. I. P. the 2000's :(
Finally I found this song, I kept remembering the video but not the song.
Massively underrated band!
I just love the meaning of this song all of his songs are based on the daily working class life, they are amazing.
Alex C Yeah, it's much better than the shitty songs we get today!
I have a well-paid job, but I HATE the guts ourt of whatever one calls "posh"
This song is so underrated
Why?
It had decent success at the time...
10 years. Hard-Fi to believe
I see what you did there.
that bass line!
Right??!
With the cost of living crisis this song is totally relevant.
listened to this song for years and only now watching the video - so clever!! sad that these lyrics are still so relevant, I miss when people would sing about real issues
Thumbs up if this song pretty much describes your experiences in life, it certainly does mine!
Heard it while playing FM 06 and remembered that I always loved it when i listened ❤️
My god, how I love this song and band. It takes more and more meaning as years goes by.
man, the satisfaction to finally found the song I've been looking for for many years
Man I remember when this song came out, a more simple time in a strange way. Still speaking on relevant concepts
This song is so much more relevant to me than when I first heard it.
l'ho ascolata in radio pochi giorni fa' dopo anni... bellissima! :)
WTF, what a great song.....STILL! Sounds as good today as when I heard it for the first time back in 05!
I used to listen to there music everyday now rediscovered them still sounds amazing
great song, that deserves much more attention
Ein absolut geiler Song!
Der darf einfach auf keiner Playlist fehlen!
I just wish Hard-Fi would release some new music ASAP !
+TheLisbonLions1967 what does it say at the vey end?? i'm not a native speaker and didnt get it!!!
+frankieinfrance "Oh knickers"

Oasis with an urban street kick 😎👌
non la ascoltavo da almeno 10 anni...piacevole riscoperta! bella!
FINALLY found this damn song. I just remember watching the music video on Nickelodeon. 😅
15 years and I'm still a slave to cash machines

they fucked up the next two albums, they had a good run you commie.
Great band.
They literally had 2 number one albums and even that's more than they actually deserved this is boring middle of the road indie
I heard this back way back in day 20 yrs still iROCKS
MTV
wat...
Già
Underrated band!
been after this song for years
Amazing tune… without doubt, the best years of my life
Underrated so much .... Brilliant band Period !!
such a clever music video
2021 and still love this
"there is a hole in my pocket..." best outro
FM 06 anyone? Prolly the best FM music of all times.
Even to this day i still really want to believe that this is how cash machines work :)
Just discovered this tune, really cool song
Legends on tour this month Oct 2023
Anyone here in 2022? Love this song man to underrated
Remember hearing this song on the radio a real long time ago, a shame its not played any more
Wow, didn't expect this level of production quality for such an underrated band. Great song and a great video to fit.
Hard-Fi should have been massive. I imagine they were popular in the UK, but here in the United States they only got a tiny bit of promotion from Atlantic Records. Especially with Kasabian broken up, we need Hard Fi to reunite and bring back anthemic rock!
Kasabian haven't broken up, they just lost their frontman, but I really hope they don't split.
Edit: Thank the lord!
Hell yeah!
FROM PUNK 77 TO THIS IN ON ' 04

More than 10 years ago but the great lyrics of this song are still very actual...
It was the very first song I listened to on my very first iPod in lord knows what year... dang
in my 20's this sort of music was kickass fkn buzzing
Love this video version and the original - both great to watch with superb track. Just shame original isn't available in higher quality....

2022, this song makes more sense than ever before.
At work on break listening to cash machine. Cheers to my 3rd shift brothers
2022 so poignant for this year and the economic environment a lot of people are in at the moment and struggling financially
Great song takes me back every time I hear it; come on boys get back together it’s been to long.
This played on BBCR2 just before I left work ... going to repeat it all night :D
forgot how good these are
This version is better than the old video to this song.
Class tune..great band..should have more views.
Love this song so freaking awesome
Non so perché? ma quanto Cz. amo questa Hit,
I don't know why, but I FKN love this song, the video, his voice, everything

Quelle année 2005 !? . . 🎸👍
Heard the instrumental version of this song in Natwest series Bangladesh vs Australia 2005. Been searching since then.
These days im pretty alright for cash but in my late teens to mid/late 20's this was my life
