I was 17 years old in Hollywood with my best friend and family and we were shopping for my 18 hole Docs (Dr Martin’s) and they were shooting this video and they asked if we wanted to be in it. I was so excited to be in this video and meet the band. They were totally cool. It was an awesome day for me. My first pair of 18 hole Docs and get to meet the band And be in a video. Still a great song 29 years later!!
Mick did the same with The Clash and Carbon/Silicon. The Clash's intro to Guns on the Roof is pretty much the same as Clash City Rockers which was inspired by The Who's I Can't Explain. Years later on Carbon/Silicon's What the Fuck!, Mick again uses the Clash City Rockers intro
He is sampling himself, so it's a win either way. Mick Jones was one of the first rock musicians to see the value in sampling and do it creatively. He was at ground zero for 2 music revolutions, his originally has never been in doubt.
Thank you! I was just going to post that I read he sampled all night long as well but I couldn’t hear it…. He sampled some crazy stuff…didn’t he sample the drums for sweet pea by Tommy Roe in Rush?
You see all those kids at 0:43 wearing identical white tees with black and red lines? We were walking in our annual "March for Hunger", a 26 mile walk from Skid Row to Santa Monica to raise money to feed the homeless. It was just a coincidence we were there - and we got to be in a music video. How LA is that?
Man, my parents played the hell out of this when I was a kid. Neither of them remember this! Well I sure as hell do. Thanks to The Clash for reminding me of those good 90's years before everything went to hell. Time to make more good times for the kids of today.
When I was a little girl I would put on the whole album that this song came from early in the morning as I was getting ready for school. I am now a 40 year old woman and I still like to play this music but now it's dancing music for my little children ✌️💙😊. Love this song!

Music is not far from what smell, and taste; and their being able to lift a long forgotten memory. And allow us to remember a better time had And in that, we can give a reprieve from the here and now Thanks Mick 👍👍
These comments have my heart very happy. It's amazing to see all you 90s and 00s babies remembering BAD with fondness. My daughter approached me a few years ago because she was making a playlist to listen to while doing field research. She had most of the other bands she grew up with, but she couldn't remember the title of the "choo! Bless you" song. I'm fairly certain she added most of the Down At The Globe album to her list. It's interesting to hear about what our babies remember and what things remind them of their old Mommy.
And of all my friends You've been the best to me Soon will be the day When I repay you handsomely Broken hearts are hard to mend I know, I've had my share But life just carries on Even when I'm not there Situation no win Rush for a change of atmosphere I can't go on, so I give in Gotta get myself right outta here Situation no win Rush for a change of atmosphere I can't go on so I give in Gotta get myself right outta here
I grew up listening to Big audio dynamite and this song is still worth jammin to The Globe is a cracking record. Highly under rated. Should i stay or should i globe ? I love that he sampled himself.
Didn't know of BAD until the early 90's and was BLOWN AWAY! I'm from Chicago, Illinois. A friend brought the cd for the road trip we went on tripping on cid and boy that was a memorable day, Lmao! We must have played that album a boatload of times, BAD is definitely underated. I was organizing my pad and came across the cd box minus the cd, hopefully it's around somewhere. Either way we have TH-cam, YEYYYYY!!! Cranking BAD super loud cruising in the classic car I had at the time was mega epic!!! I had a 1971 Chevy Caprice with a stereo system / speakers to rival as if you were at the concert. Great times and beautiful memories. "Esta. Loca" epic line from a Chicago House music jam Classic, I was blown away they used it. Mega Dope!
Many years ago Big Audio Dynamite was opening for U2 at the zoo TV tour and I had front row seats and the girl that I took with me thought I knew nothing about music so she started asking me all these questions and I was able to answer everything and then I asked her do you know what band Mick Jones was in before Big Audio Dynamite never heard of class she never heard of them I was laughing the whole night and needless to say that was our last date
2020 ~ I don't know what shuffled my brain cells but this goodie popped up and I haven't heard it in ... decades? Ouch. I'm so glad TH-cam has all my memories for times like this.
Still one of my favorite bands! Formed by ex-guitarist and singer of The Clash, Mick Jones back in 1984. They were one of the first to do sampling and I think they did it more creatively than most even to this day. So many great songs and lots of great sampling!
Tuve el placer de ganarme el CD de Big Audio Dynamite en la desaparecida radio Gabriela FM 98.1 de Concepción-Chile a mis 19 años en 1991, en ese tiempo no tenia como reproducirlo y tuve que venderlo a la discotheque "Casanovas" de Yumbel.
I always thought he said “switch off the stove” because you know if you are going out for the nite and u leave the stove on you can have a really bad fire
In 1979, Mick Jonas and Joe Strummer lived in this small country in Central America, called Costa Rica. And, for me that these two great guys co-wrote the song London Calling, it was an honor and privilege to put Costa Rica on the world stage. I would be born until 1983, and I would know Big Audio Dynamite, until 1999. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇨🇷💙🤍❤🤍💙 .
I've been searching for this song for ages, I had it on a mix cd my dad made me when I was like 10 and I always Thought it was the weirdest fucking song
I have no idea why this band never won a award they were the first band ever to switch to rap/rock and add samples there would not be a Beastie Boys Limp Biscuit or any other rap/rock bands.
I grew up listening to Big audio dynamite and this song is still worth jammin to "Heewee heewee heewee heewee... go." To this day, one of the best albums I ever owned.
Jan 1992 I arrived in Frankfurt Germany and the only cd that stood out was this one. Played it all the time I’m sure people got tired of me playing it lol. Still one of my favorites cds
Had not given thought 'One' to this awesome song since about 6 months after its release. Until it played a month ago on KXT Dallas/Fort Worth. Absolutely stuck in my head now. It's the perfect tempo for my typical walk speed. Striding up and down the halls in my office singing "Where are you going, my beautiful friend? Hewee Hewee Hewee... Go!' In my head, of course.
I was 17 years old in Hollywood with my best friend and family and we were shopping for my 18 hole Docs (Dr Martin’s) and they were shooting this video and they asked if we wanted to be in it. I was so excited to be in this video and meet the band. They were totally cool. It was an awesome day for me. My first pair of 18 hole Docs and get to meet the band And be in a video. Still a great song 29 years later!!
That is a truly awesome and essential early 90s high school fantasy story come true. The Docs, the band, the video and the holes.
Best. Comment. Ever.
you rock. i was thinking, i would've KILLED to be at this shoot! and you scored it!
That's pretty cool. Thank you for sharing
Those suckers are expensive. But they last…(the boots)
I don't always listen to Big Audio Dynamite, but when I do, SO DO THE NEIGHBORS!

Mick Jones sampling Mick Jones = Total mindblow!

We need to go deeper...
IT SOUNDS LIKE THE CLASH: SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO 😏, YOU GOTTA LOVE MICK JONES, HOPE JOE STRUMMER IS HAPPY FOR HIS BANDMATES , GOD BLESS HIM 💒💐
Yeah...that was the coolest "self shoutout" ever.
Oh blessed you..
Mick Jones. The only man on the planet who can take 2 guitar chords, make a song, and 30 years later, you're STILL not sick of it.
The Beatles and Prince already did it.
no joke, aye? i had been trying to think of their name for about a year now, lol. well worth the wait. freakin awesome music!
S Kim DO NOT DARE DIMINISH JOE'S riffs. Two cords?!?
*take 2 chords and make 3 songs
@@trashcity8019 train in vain
I am 45 and just missed this band. These guys are truly awesome and extremely unique. I have never heard anything this unique.
We're you asleep during the 90s...?
Mick reinvents himself again, and to great effect, in a danceable fusing of musical styles. Fresh!
This track never gets old, and it still hits!
hotter than a microwave
He is sampling himself, so it's a win either way. Mick Jones was one of the first rock musicians to see the value in sampling and do it creatively. He was at ground zero for 2 music revolutions, his originally has never been in doubt.
He also sampled the drum intro of "All Night Long" by Lionel Richie on the extended version.
WOW ten years ago. Mick wasn't sampling, his cousin Andre Shapps produced BAD's music with Mick.
@@befdoglover1 Andre Shapps sampled it.
Cease and Desist, Ginger Porn
Thank you! I was just going to post that I read he sampled all night long as well but I couldn’t hear it….
He sampled some crazy stuff…didn’t he sample the drums for sweet pea by Tommy Roe in Rush?
Hugely influential. Stone roses and Happy Mondays, Jesus Jones, EMF, Pop will eat itself, all owe a lot to BAD
A band well ahead of it's time IMO!
It's party 🥳 time
Do whatcha like

I thought of this song while having an allergy induced sneeze attack this lovely Friday morning. Thank you for the music ❤
Every time someone sneezes 2:31

This has gone too far
Mick Jones represents everything good about the spirit of music and human nature
Strappa. That is the perfect statement!.

My Dad bought me a Discman in 1992 when I was 10, along with this CD. Still one of the best.

My beautiful friend
Is this the road that
We take til the end
And if we break down
Are we left behind
Is this the highway
Of all mankind
Axis spins so round and round we go
Where we're goin no one really knows
Here we here we here we here we go
Feel the fire way down below
Come on and dim the lights
(It's party time)
Switch on the strobe
(Do what you like)
We gonna have a ball tonight
(Let's have a ball)
Down at the Globe
Come on dim the lights
(Here we here we here we go again)
Switch on the strobe
(Lookin right?)
Gonna have a ball tonight
(All I see is?)
Down at the Globe
Get up and clean your teeth and have a shave
It's 1am let's go out to a rave
One more in before we hit that grave
It's hotter than a microwave wave
Come on and dim the lights
(It's party time)
Switch on the strobe
(Do what you like)
We gonna have a ball tonight
(Let's have a ball)
Down at the Globe
Where is the failure
Not in this land
But still you try to
Get what you can
You know that it's bad but
If you insist
Here's one more chance now
That you just missed
Come on and dim the lights

Switch on the strobe

We gonna have a ball tonight

First time I heard this was in July 1991 at La Locomotive nightclub in Paris. Brings back some great memories...
That album is an all time classic IMHO.
um no big audio dynamite should have stopped making music after they made their last classic e=mc2
Duran Duran Planet Earth these guys The Globe we all born of them words.Mixes and merges every beat with samples All Night Long
Mick Jones and his Bond Electraglide guitar have been together since 1985.
I grew up listening to Big audio dynamite and this song is still worth jammin to
when i was 4 years old or so, i requested this album on cassette for my birthday. now im 30 but its still rocking me..its hotter than a microwave
4 years old?
I call B.S. on a 4 year old requesting this, and on a cassette no less.
Haters ^
I did this with a John Taylor album
@@holdenzimmerle
man, I remember turning my whole dorm onto BAD... most underated and misunderstood band of the 80's.... I WANNA GO BAAACK
"It's part time!"
hey you kids get off my roof ... oh look its buddy from the clash oh welll never mind keep going sir
OMG! I remember when cruising Melrose Ave. in Hollywood back in the 80's. Those were the best days. Now too many people get robbed. SO! SAD.
The Globe is a cracking record. Highly under rated.
only the band The Clash could have become!
Crackalackin'
Big Audio Dynamite in general is underrated
It’s December 5, 2022… My favorite radio station in the whole world is playing this song right now! Life does not get better than this! 😊😉😘😎
Music is not far from what smell, and taste; and their being able to lift a long forgotten memory. And allow us to remember a better time had
And in that, we can give a reprieve from the here and now

'70s gen Xers, too ;-).
Lame.
I have been searching for this version FOR YEARS!! Thank you!!
A fantastic, fun, happy song.
I've been a fan of B.A.D. since their inception.
Do what ya like. In this world 🌎 you can do what you want
And of all my friends
You've been the best to me
Soon will be the day
When I repay you handsomely
Broken hearts are hard to mend
I know, I've had my share
But life just carries on
Even when I'm not there
Situation no win
Rush for a change of atmosphere
I can't go on, so I give in
Gotta get myself right outta here

1 of our crazy group of friends where we all worked at the Sears in the moorstown mall ,nj and this was one of our songs....no one else's! LOL
BEST SONG EVER!!!!!
To this day, one of the best albums I ever owned.
"Heewee heewee heewee heewee... go."
I love that he sampled himself.
Loved growing up to you guys. You were sung and played more than you'll ever know. Excellent Album. Much Love💋. A Jersey American Girl❤️.

Been on my Playlist for years. I listen while cutting lawn on a big diesel tractor and this song always makes me smile. "Its party time!"
My mind wAs bent…. I was thinking neds atomic dust bin…. I was sure. Any who. I love this!!!! And anyone who is in my/this mix… old effers
Drop that globe! Nooice! 😎 STOC

Mick Jones makes a D chord sound fucking deadly.
An ecletic mix of dance, pop, rock, punk, hip-hop.
It's a great band that was under rated BAD...

My last name is Carter. I'll trade with you!
Better than Biden
X, Bless you. "In 15 to 20 minutes, you'll feel so much better." My Mother was the best. Rockin' cool lady.
Mick Jones. So amazingly ahead of his time.
For some weird reason.... It's a Friday morning... And I woke up with this song in my head... wtf...
I woke up up with E=MC2 in my head the other day for no reason either Lol???
Esji Raw This song has been in my head for almost 30 years. It just randomly pops in...which is why I’m here now.
Me too. MJ and coffee.
This is the Globe. Smile.
Bring s back memories
Bless you.. ..bless you...oh bless you.. Bless you!! Come on and dim the lights.. it's party time switch on the strobe.....Do What cha like!!!

this pretty revolutionary
Tuve el placer de ganarme el CD de Big Audio Dynamite en la desaparecida radio Gabriela FM 98.1 de Concepción-Chile a mis 19 años en 1991, en ese tiempo no tenia como reproducirlo y tuve que venderlo a la discotheque "Casanovas" de Yumbel.
Wow... que suerte, yo grabe este tema desde la radio Carolina en un cassette...
Definitely some clash in their songs
So ahead of their time awesome tune
at 0:27, that little rift just makes me dance when it kicks
"Heewee heewee heewee heewee... go."
I love that he sampled himself.
I always thought he said “switch off the stove” because you know if you are going out for the nite and u leave the stove on you can have a really bad fire
Where's the lie tho?
In 1979, Mick Jonas and Joe Strummer lived in this small country in Central America, called Costa Rica. And, for me that these two great guys co-wrote the song London Calling, it was an honor and privilege to put Costa Rica on the world stage.

Mick Jones, not Jonus
Proper!
Jackie and Jake are always going together forever in love
The Jam ! I use to bump this on my road trips to Phoenix Arizona during the early 90s.
Grew up listening to this song as my dad loved this band. Such nostalgia for me! GONNA HAVE A BALL TONIGHT! DOWN AT THE GLOBE!
