Recognize it when it happens to you Learn to recognize it and know what to do Stop clinging on, let go, own nothing Do it out of love When everything is gone You no longer care Your soul standing naked and bare Stripped down to the truth Then you'll find everything On heaven and earth The struggle is long The struggle is hard The struggle is beautiful
The first Killing Joke album I listened to in my late teens and I was immediately smitten. My favorite KJ album by far. Emotionally charged and liberating at the same time.
I'm fairly sure that they played it at the Astoria when they kicked off the Extremeties tour. Of course, that was before everyone at gigs had bloody phones stuck up in the air to record the band.
The drumming on this track is impeccable, and reminds me why I starting playing drums Like foot soldier speed , strength and will all combined for the sound of one .
To this day this remains my all time favourite killing joke song U can just tell he really means it, and I get man!!! When u loose everything Losing your money Your family , losing your mind Then You will find everything on heaven and earth .
Understanding the meaning of struggle Giving your whole life to a single passion Which others may or may not Consider obsolete Like a rare flower Seen by a few before it withers and dies (before it withers and dies) Seeing it all All the way through the very end Regardless A full stop followed by an exclamation mark Written in your flesh and blood Getting knocked down every time Getting knocked down every moment You get up, until you love getting up I know what you've been going through I've been there too God knows I've been pushing hard Pushing so damn hard I've forgotten what the hell I'm even Pushing for Recognize it when it happens to you Learn to recognize it and know what to do Stop clinging on, let go, own nothing Do it out of love Do it out of love Words cannot substitute Losing everything Losing your home Losing your money Your dignity Losing your mind, your beliefs, ideals Then and only then When everything is gone You no longer care Your soul standing naked and bare Stripped down to the truth Then you'll find everything On heaven and earth On heaven and earth On heaven and earth The struggle is long The struggle is hard The struggle is beautiful
I just ordered this CD for $25, because it's so rare. And I only got that price after I waited for a listing that was under $45. hahaha. I really really want a non-TH-cam compression/lofi version of this record, so I did what I had to.
Recognize it when it happens to you
Learn to recognize it and know what to do
Stop clinging on, let go, own nothing
Do it out of love
When everything is gone
You no longer care
Your soul standing naked and bare
Stripped down to the truth
Then you'll find everything
On heaven and earth
The struggle is long
The struggle is hard
The struggle is beautiful

Same for me..bought it in 1992 when I was 14.
The struggle is long the struggle is hard the struggle is beautiful.. How very apt for 2020..
This must be my favorite Killing Joke song. All here is magic. And fuckin stressfull.

What a bunch of zombified pricks.

When u loose everything
Losing your money
Your family , losing your mind
Then
You will find everything on heaven and earth .
Rocks!
Shouldn´t be without the song "Kaliyuga" which gives a tremendous intro on the album!
Understanding the meaning of struggle
Giving your whole life to a single passion
Which others may or may not
Consider obsolete
Like a rare flower
Seen by a few before it withers and dies
(before it withers and dies)
Seeing it all
All the way through the very end
Regardless
A full stop followed by an exclamation mark
Written in your flesh and blood
Getting knocked down every time
Getting knocked down every moment
You get up, until you love getting up
I know what you've been going through
I've been there too
God knows I've been pushing hard
Pushing so damn hard
I've forgotten what the hell I'm even
Pushing for
Recognize it when it happens to you
Learn to recognize it and know what to do
Stop clinging on, let go, own nothing
Do it out of love
Do it out of love
Words cannot substitute
Losing everything
Losing your home
Losing your money
Your dignity
Losing your mind, your beliefs, ideals
Then and only then
When everything is gone
You no longer care
Your soul standing naked and bare
Stripped down to the truth
Then you'll find everything
On heaven and earth
On heaven and earth
On heaven and earth
The struggle is long
The struggle is hard
The struggle is beautiful
Really cool bassline in this one. Rip Raven
On this Geordies Guitar sounds like a leopard sneaking up on the prey.

Geordie = The MASTER of masters! 4:34 (*4:42) --on
Not a single weak track on the album
Freaking intense.
Cool track.
This could almost pass off as a metal song.
this is a metal song
This is why I love Killing Joke. You never really know the boundaries of Metal, Punk, Goth, World/New Age. It's a freaking trip.
Killing Joke can pass off as a metal band at times. They are the only band that has continued to get better and harder as they age. Love it.
No, unfortunately they've never play it live... :(
EXTREMAMENTE
Hope all you fans hear the message. The struggle is long , the struggle is hard the struggle is beautiful. Resist the tyranny!!!@
I do loves a happy ending
Is there any live footage of this?
@Loobs666 Is it the blue set of eyes? The shine in the eyes are different from the others.
@Loobs666 Wow. I just learned something today! :)
I've got something else that's long and hard haha
Cracked up on the train mate 😂. Worth it.
