Someone's just suggested 'The wind beneath my wings' for our local choirs next tune. I put 'Cranked up really high' as an alternative. I bet I know what we'll end up singin' !!
Why did you hang out with these guys or what? I did in Los Angeles me and my friend hung out the night before with these dudes in corona ca they invited us to the LA show and we got in free but bought merchandise t shirts because it’s slaughter and the fucken dogs haha
I got to meet these guys a few years on a reunion tour put together for kicks. I brought my single for them to autograph. They were shocked anybody still had one...
This is a Great song from my Teenage years, I had the Ep + Their 'Live at the Factory' Album along with some of their other stuff as well. Great music 👍 & past memories from this band & they started the Bootboy & Oi following on the Punk scene, Well done lads 🙂.
I used to have a good friend we all called 8Ball Paul. He could be somewhat of a cliche punk rock party animal at times but all in all the dude was a good friend to have and even tho we kinda gave him more shit than we should have, he was always a good sport about it and never had any hard feelings about the teasing. And believe me, the teasing was above and beyond the type of shit you should do to a friend! Lol Anyway, one day he was extra spun out on his favorite performance enhancers and really irritating the shit outta everyone and he just kept playing this song over and over which eventually just made everyone laugh and it really makes this song even better than it already is thinking back about that day. Lmao Fuckin 8 Ball Paul.
I listened to this going to bed last night and dremt that I was at a restaurant and nicked someone's food off of their table before they could eat it. Ha Ha Ha Ha. Ha.
Gamble my life away, a real bum boozer Made love on dope, just a pig skin loser Looked around at this joint For a living there was no point Cranked up really high Cranked up really high All ideas, I'm shaking my fists Had a million thoughts yeah to slit my wrists Hallucination in my dream I gotta leave, gotta leave this scene Cranked up really high Cranked up really high Getting high on glue and cocaine Jabbing things into my vein Lucifer lord holding my hand Pushing pills to a rock and roll band Cranked up really high Cranked up really high La la la la la la la
@@Ocelot10 Cocaine is actually great, you just gotta have a non addictive personality to do that amazing drug. I did Five lines with friends back in the day, I couldn't sleep for a whole day.🤣😂
I remember buying this on vinyl as a lad. Bounced of me bedroom walls for weeks. SUPERB TRACK. Thanx for posting it up. 'appy days indeed . . . .
Just one of the best ever punk singles, both sides.
