4 skins are so multi-talented. You would think that this song was by another band in comparison to "One law for them." Both songs are great though. The good the bad & the 4skins is an awesome LP.
@@l.salisbury1253 It's cockney rhyming slang. "Crown and Anchor" rhymes with " *wanker* " (so instead of saying that last word you say the "rhyme pair". Normally just the first word in the pair that doesn't rhyme with the word you mean. So you can happily refer to a judge, in court, as "a crown" = "a wanker" and you can't get punished for that... Ok?) www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=wanker
excuse my ignorance ,,,,,what is EMO love this band..was into it way back in the early eighties...the clothes, the music , the drinking, the mindless violence....the friendships that have mostly lasted
i'm not sure, but i think this is the first song i heard from the 4 skins... i remember i put it on repeat, (think i was sortly possessed) and my brother wanted to hit me when he came to my room after hearing the same song 7-8 times in a row :D and after few more songs they became one of my favourite bands :)weeee
im 43 in 85 when i was a youmg skin..i met one of the four skins,i was in balboa newport bch ca,,,,,,it was summer.i was wearing a fourskins shirt,,,,cant remember who it was a long time ago..but fuck was it fun
I love this ska tune, but when it ends I so look forward to hearing the mean bass intro and opening measures of "Jealousy". It's like, ok we were nice, but that's about to change...
@Palon1983 Anything which has to do with how a country is run or the policies it adopts is Political. Yes almost everything is political ... to be apolitical is to be disinterested in any thing which concerns the management of a country
Ain't got me old lugs round this old tune 4 a few years now Gould blimy those where the days cerrys reds,yellow laces, bleached levis,Ben sherman,flight jacket, glue sniffing,old English cider,cut down lamby,fighting all the time,aving a fuck off bad attitude and just being vary anti social come to think of it not alot has really changed. OI!,,OI!,,OI,,WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD THAT WAS ,,LOL,,
@captainbollocks Hey is it so that you can't be a skinhead when you have climbed up to a manager level of job? Just asking because it's still work and if you like the music you are alright I think. Not me caring about anything just interested about this a manager listening to stuff of the working class.
Uh, that would be "hipsters". They change every 10 years or so and without aim. It seem's there's a finite amount of Skins and that is a good thing. Good or bad at least you stand for SOMETHING, lol.
i bought this album in 83 when i was a 15 yo skin & always thought this track sounded like a madness tune
Yea same about same age
Same here. It was in the punk section in the record store in Lewes in 1983. All my mates had it.
Yes ....me too....; and sounds a little bit better...;-)
I got this album as a punk 20years ago
Me n my mate Sean love the 4skins we blasted ACAB from my flat I Northfield in Birmingham in 1984, Great days....
This whole album was great, but this song was my fav. Always listened to before shoes while lacing up boots

im so fucking cool for listening to this in 6th grade when everyone was listening to ricky martin
You are part of the rare breed
You are part of the rare breed. I salute you! 😎
i was so young. This was my music. So grateful.
"... they call me a crown and anchor."
Nice one guys!
This is USA calling... what does "crown & anchor" mean?
@@l.salisbury1253 It's cockney rhyming slang.
"Crown and Anchor"
rhymes with " *wanker* "

@@l.salisbury1253 i thought i was the only Yankee listening to this lol
@@l.salisbury1253crown and anchor is a typical British pub name. I’m guessing it has something to do with that. Local haunt for dodgy dealings
@Fearyourown it's slang for wanker
The final part is a "version" of "I could be so good for you" by Dennis Waterman
