Thank you for allowing a comment. This music was seeded way back in my past some 30 years ago. Music.. no comment.. thank you for saving me from suicide
wow. this is still my favorite Underworld tracks straight from an album. Too bad they never perform this live to my knowledge. Karl's melodic vocals on some old school Rick beats. Classic.
Amén …. That's right..! It makes me cry and open in the channel.. that melancholic voice of Karl yes sir .. that melody that surrounds you and between pianos and dots and surprises you every time it cuts and goes up to catch you again in a loop.. 10 minutes of an inexplicable connection for me.. it's incredible .. In December 2019 I saw them thanks to the universe in Wembley arena and they didn't touch it no.. 💔I guess because of its long duration but for me without a doubt its best jewel and my favourite treasures not to mention the first 🙌🏼
90's Saturday mornings after dancing all night and going mental, burning out off the last fumes of Friday night's LSD-- sun rise and I feel so lonely, so dirty, so weary... and the epic journey back home to sleep... to dream... Saturday evening, maybe a shake and some fries at the 50's diner, takin' it real easy... Sunday Beautiful Burnout.. and then just five days of school, before-- Friday on the train again, back Downtown, buy a hit, pay admittance, dance all night... rinse and repeat. Anthem of my youth.
Ya but for me it was hangover days walking to work as software QA engineer (lol!!! Seems weird to say now!). And just getting to work and getting it done with this song in the background. I recall closing my eyes, leaning my head back in a chair and writing test cases from the software I memorized in my head….. How did we all make it through all these years?! ❤😂🎉🎉🎉
@@stefaniacontessa I don’t now what’s going in my life. I’m 26 and I’m lost. I can feel you words like a living one day and again again. I’m repeat this song everything go my mind. Life is a mistery 💚
@Beverlylowie it's so weird I got a comment on my comment from you tonight 😅 I just had a baby last year at 44 and she loves music. Guess what comes up tonight? Dirty Epic! I'm pretty sure my 7 month old was digging the song!!!
Rez and Cowgirl were for losing your shit...Dirty Epic was for those dark late nights for me as a brooding teen connector connector connector Also, didn't remember this until now but this album was far enough back for me from when I had inherited my dad's wood and aluminum Pioneer "hi-fi" analogue receiver from the 70's. I knew I would be the one to blow it--the bass drops at the first of this track buried the needles lit by those lamps ;)
Me and my best Friend used to listen to this track and the Album when it came out in the 1990s. This song reminds me of him. I cut him off because he got hooked on Cocaine and started heavy drinking. And I could not help him. We were best friends for over a decade. And I miss him a lot. But I can not forgive that he offered me Cocaine. That he offered me to get hooked on the Drug that caused him so many problems. And our friendship.
'Listen to your eyes you said, But all I could see was Doris Day'... Doris Day, born Doris Mary Ann Kappelhoff, passed away at the age of 97 on May 13th, 2019 in Carmel Valley, California... Besides "Dirty Epic" she was referred to in two records that peaked at #1 on Billboard's Top 100 chart, "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" by Wham! {1984} and "We Didn't Start The Fire " by Billy Joel {1989}... She was also referred to in "Le De Da" by Ringo Starr {1999}, "Dig It" by the Beatles {1970}, and "Look At Me, I'm Sandra Dee" from the musical 'Grease' {1978}... May she R.I.P.
Ride the sainted rhythms on the midnight train to Romford... Connector Connector... I'm so dirty, and the light it blinds my eyes... You're so dirty, and the light it blinds my eyes. Here comes Christ on crutches...
As much as I enjoyed this time in 1997-99 living at the beach and partying weekly in Hollywood, I'd never want to relive it.... If we're there then you know what I mean
Thanks so much for posting this. Had this on a Wax Trax! sampler called Afterburn 94 or something. Always liked the track; never knew there was a video, and it's really good too.
Ride the sainted rhythms on the midnight train to Romford, he says. Anyone who's had to take the last train out of the city's eastern terminals back to Havering on a Saturday night knows there's nothing romantic about it
I ❤ Underworld Very Much So.! But, Why Does He Have To Say, "Here Comes Christ On Crutches.?" I Never Understand That, Being In Songs. I Guess Each To There Own... ?
One of the greatest tracks ever made.
I concur.
Agree
Yeah. It is really good 😎
Was literally about to type that when I saw your comment 💚

You know that !

The 90s were overflowing with brilliant electronic music. Anybody who took all nighters watching MTV chillout zone knows what im talking about
MTV Amp was usually the highlight of my week
Yes!!!
YES, we like MTV CHILL OUT ZONE!
Mixing & Muzik!
MixMag & Muzik! Pre-emptive Android bot shite.. The future? Mweehh.
Listened to this about 2989 times now, never gets boring.
this hast to be the bestunderworld song... the number of raini days i sat at home just listening to this over and over...
Me too! But even on work days! All day every day possible!
I'm so dirty, and the light it blinds my eyes.
Greatest band in the world. Ever.
My late husband introduced me to Underworld, this was our song.
Rest in peace... feeling for you tonight, this has been a favorite of mine for years. I hope you're doing alright.
I’m truly sorry for your perceived loss, but I promise you he’s still with you, take care 💚
Ah, what a classic. I could listen to this all day.
10 years ago Todd.....hope you’re still around to listen....and maybe reply....it will still sound awesome
Was in high school in the 90's, this song sums up those years perfectly.
You're making a mix to take with you on a journey that last forever. This track belongs on it. Thank you so much Underworld.
'I get my kicks on channel six
The light it burns my eyes and I feel so dirty
Here comes Christ on crutches' 🖤

Underworld fries LSD and a good Belgium beer.....
That s it bro!!!
Exactly but for me was the Sunday morning ‘hangover’ after the Saturday night partying

No matter how old I get I always come back to this song
That’s right! Me too! Almost 50 now! It’s been here with me more than my family!
Amazing words. I feel inside this song no matter what bring me the life and blow 🌊.

I just had a baby last year at 44 and she loves music. Guess what comes up tonight? Dirty Epic!
I'm pretty sure my 7 month old was digging the song!!!
I remember them playing it live a couple of times... memorably at a sunny Somerset House several years ago... one of their best, easily.
Underworld at their brilliant best... still loving this tune in 2020!
I want this track playing loud in my coffin, .......constantly for an eternity
there's not a week goes by that I don't listen to this classic at least once. Their best song, love it.

i used to drive around at night to dark and long and dirty epic..seemed suitably apt!!
Similar experience - listening to mmmm skyscraper through my parents proper old speakers blew my mind
Does anyone else feeling they've personally lived and experienced all of those images and events in this video?
I do!
Very Much So...

Yesssss
Reminds me of being at University in Hull in the late 90s. Great time
here comes christ on crutches!!!
edit..big up to all the crew still bumping this in 2022 !!
I love that line.. I think because Christ walked on water but still somehow needs crutches.
@ColinIzer1111 the amount of times I said that line in my head when I turned up at work on a Monday morning back in the day.
@@burrowsgod Haha, I hear ya!
We all went, mental.....and danced. Our teeth stuffed back in our heads. Here comes Christ on Crutches
FYI this is my absolute favorite U song ever ❤
Evergreen 2021!😎
This song is so dirty and epic! Love it! 😍
Ride the sainted rhythms on the midnight train to Romford...
Connector Connector...
I'm so dirty, and the light it blinds my eyes...
You're so dirty, and the light it blinds my eyes.
Here comes Christ on crutches...
Ultimate electro beatyness.
One day extraterrestrials will kneel and admire.....
Great fucking tune. I remember the first time I heard it I was like "mine!"
As much as I enjoyed this time in 1997-99 living at the beach and partying weekly in Hollywood, I'd never want to relive it.... If we're there then you know what I mean

i love this song. i want a new remix from underworld, or maybe a "reboot"-kind of release
Anyone remember this being used by local TV station Oxford Channel 6 in the late 90s?
The best.
They’ll never make tunes as good as the ones that came from this album
@ grusf...I have seen them play this live twice....the last show I saw, they opened with it.
An angel from LA introduced me to this song. #TrueLurve
genius song
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 4:00
Possibly the best song about masturbation ever written (with the possible exception of "Girls of Porn" by Mr. Bungle or "Icicle" by Tori Amos).
I'd like to see Underworld do the soundtrack for Tron 3!

Does the 5-tone sequence in the very beginning have connection with the one from the "Close encounters" of Steven Spielberg?
Underworld epic
