    I can't go on so I give in
    Gotta get myself right outta here

    Mick Jones and BAD was so good at running with and fusing styles and reflecting the times . The song and clip were laced with all that was going on in the Manchester rave scene with elements of sampling , hip -hop, funk , post -punk , acid jazz, psychedelia - its all there . Brilliant.

      The other thing that’s really amazing about this song is it was their biggest hit so they had the guts of an amazing song and they took a risk of fucking it all up with that weird shit in the middle of it, but he did it anyway and it worked. that’s the definition of Ballsy.

      ​@@lowenbad Agreed about both points. Not sure about the UK, but they weren't that well known in the US and it's obvious since their music videos only have a few million views, same for Spotify song plays, though a bit more for a couple of songs. The top cities for where listeners live are all in the UK and Australia. I grew up in an area that had a station that played them and other UK indie/alt bands a lot so if you asked me then, I would have assumed they were pretty mainstream. I realized later that wasn't common in much of the US and many haven't heard their songs.

      @@the_letter_b they were one of the first rock bands that used samples and decks as part of the band’s overall sound…. Way back in the 80s! They are extremely influential to modern music, but not many people realize this. Personally, I like BAD just a bit more than The Clash. (Don’t kill me! Lol)
      My old band “Lowenbad” was very influenced by them… mainly because we were a rock/ soul band that integrated samples into our sound.

    If I have my time again
    I would do it all the same
    And not change a single thing
    Even when I was to blame
    For the heartache and the pain
    That I caused throughout my ears
    How I learned to be a man
    Through the laughter and the tears
    Situation no win
    Rush for a change of atmosphere
    I can't go on, so I give in
    Gotta get myself right outta here
    Now I'm fully grown
    And I know where it's at
    Somehow, I stayed thin
    While the other guys got fat
    All the chances that I've blown
    And the times that I've been down
    I didn't get too high
    Kept my feet on the ground
    Situation no win
    Rush for a change of atmosphere
    I can't go on, so I give in
    Gotta get myself right outta here
    Yes, yes, delightful, delightful
    Rush for a change of atmosphere
    Mm, I wish I could sing like that
    Not everything's singing, you know
    The only important thing these days is rhythm and melody
    Rhythm
    And melody
    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
    Gotta get myself right
    Gotta get myself right
    Gotta get myself right

    Gotta get myself right

I always knew there was a reason why I obsessed over this song as a 4-8 year old kiddo back in the 90s. Heard this song for the first time in 20+ years in a random grocery store recently, it felt like a flood of information was rushing into my brain. Thank you Big Audio Dynamite, we wakin up.

    Haven’t heard this song in like 25 plus years. It came across my feed and I forgot how much I liked it. All The Clash members were important, but it’s very clear who had the talent for pop hooks; Train In Vain, Should I Stay Or Should I Go, all written by Mick Jones. This could have been a huge hit for The Clash, had they not kicked out their hit machine.

    Man those were the days. The 80s were on the way out - but bands like Depeche Mode, OMD and The Pet Shop Boys had just released their swan-song (and arguably best!) albums, meaning the 80s went out with a bang! The 90s were just getting going, the rave-party was just kicking off. Bands like the Happy Mondays and The Farm (shout out!!) were bridging the two decades and musical styles - pop and rave. The Inspiral Carpets were in the middle of MADchester. The Stone Roses dropped their bombshell premier album. Primal Scream were holding it down north of the border. Stock, Aikman and Waterman were making LowdsaMooneh in London. The Smiths were off in left field with 0 synths, but making some of the best pop ever. Need I go on? You could FEEL the energy in those days, you could cut the air with a knife it was so exciting. And today?. . . . 100% total SHITE. BORING electronic drivel. ZERO creativity. ONE day of the 80s/90s ('Welcome to the 80s/90s. . . ") were better than 1000 days of today. And why? One word: technology. Kids today are only able to operate a cell phone, not much more. Technology is killing our humanity. People, stop worshipping technology or it will be the end of us as a race. Peace out to kids of the 80s/90s!
