Lyrics:
Somebody I never met
But in a way I know
Didn't think that you could get
So much from a picture show
Man dies first reel
People ask what's the deal?
This ain't how it's supposed to be
Don't like no aborigine
Ritual ideas relativity
Only buildings no people prophecy
Time slide place to hide nudge reality
Foresight minds wide magic imagery

I used to listen to this on cassette on my first walkman in the summer of 86 when I was 16. My Dad died that summer while it was still in the charts, he was only 55. I often wonder if he ever heard this on the radio while driving around in his works van before he got ill. I hope we liked the same music, I reckon we did. Love you Dad.

My husband died last year and we loved this album, we took our first born daughter and saw them in concert in the early 90's. And partied with Mick and Johnny Lydon from PIL, a awesome memory that I hold dear.

Dad also died in 86 @65 just before I turned 16. Liked his jazz, old rock, country, big band... Lawrence Welk Show ftw! He was also very good about the music I listened to and would dance around while MTV played whatever (like it used to do!) xD Good memories.

We loved it and still do. Great music is timeless.

@CaptainOfTheLostWaves Год назад

A golden age of music …. Listening back to much of the 80’s, it’s astounding to witness the breadth and scope of artists visions and ideas being executed… it’s clear that the musicians created from their own calling rather than the idea of what might be successful … maybe an inversion of much of what has been going on for many years in the current commercial scene. That’s what was wonderful; bands who were anything but obviously commercial being appreciated for their brilliance and individuality. Love this track. So fresh

@PhilipHaggardBerry 2 года назад

I grew up in Oklahoma City, and back in the 80's it was damn hard to find "underground music" (called "alternative" in the 90's). Anyway, I was something of a mall rat, so driving down to Dallas (parents driving, I was a few years away) and, being able to wander the Galleria mall for hours was like heaven. I had seen this video on Mtv and found the cassette in a record store, and my dad was cool enough to buy it for me. Other great trax on the cassette, but E=mc2 was the best. Brings me straight back to that time.

My friend keeps listening to new hiphop songs, while I’m here binge listening to old pop songs. Am I a weirdo? I don’t know but I’m sure these songs are amazing.

BAD were so influential in the direction my life took. Ive met em all apart from Dan. Spent good time with Greg and Leo, Don has been on decks supporting my old band and during my last bands gig in Portabella. Meeting Mick on yhe four or five occasions blew my brains. Greg is the reason i play drums and Mick and Don are responsible for so much of who I am today. BAD for life.

Still have this album on tape somewhere, amazing I didn't snap it rewinding to listen to this over and over.

@lynnieo8330 2 года назад

Used to play the album as loud as possible to let off steam after work. Love it.

When I was younger I didn't care for this song because it was such a departure from The Clash for Mick Jones. Now that I am a bit older, I finally get it and I love it.

+Shannon Griffith by the way did you know that mick was asked to leave the clash by joe? which he regretted.. but maybe is the sound that the clash might have moved on to if mick had not left?

@ShanntahnPininchula 8 лет назад

+Chris Guerrero I was not aware of this thank you for sharing. Yes, Mick's direction he was going in would have possibly revitalized The Clash sound had they decided to stay together. Peace!

Not too far from something off of "Sandinista"

I never understood this, and I might of been guilty of some stuff later in the 80`s that I didnt like as I thought it was too commercial. ...because as a kid i remember hearing Rock the Casbah on mainstream radio in 1982, how could that still be punk. I remember not being interested Siouxie souxie after she took off the makeup towards the end of the 80`s, as I though she was too pop (music was a bit popish). Now I wished I went to that concert in around 1988....oh well teenagers always think they know everything

jonesy is one clever guy, mixing films with the reality of the day, both reflecting each other to the point it's hard to tell which is "reel" and which isn't "real"

I DJ'd at a large university on the east coast in the 80's. This song always packed the dance floor at fraternity parties but no one knew who it was. When I told them who it was they were shocked to say the least.

@MikeCee7 Год назад

I also DJed in the 80s, but as a mobile DJ ,starting in the late 80s. was just after I got out of college, so it was like weddings, sweet 16s, bar mitzvahs etc. Your telling me that this was a big dance song in college in the 80s? This must of went to a progressive college. it’s a great song, but I never thought of it as a nightclub dance song.

@chriscoccagna5917 Год назад

@Mike C. Yeah....it was more of a hit at fraternity parties. Something you would currently hear on Channel 33 on Sirius. You also need to remember if you were a Clash fan you probably liked Big Audio Dynamite as well.

The 80s always had hits

BAD were anything but bad. They were brilliant. Sensational 80’s music 😁👌

I remember when I was younger my dad always played this as well the classics. Now I'm older (18) I see why he liked it. It gives me so many memories. I miss my dad so much. Hope he is still jamming to this

Breaks my heart to hear this story! So sorry for ur loss.

I hope that too.

@erek2075 2 года назад

I grew up with this song. I'm probably your dad's age. My son is your age. I'm certain your dad misses you. I'm glad your dad exposed you to this music and that your memories of him and with him live on because of it.

@BlameTheLag 2 года назад

@@erek2075 21 now and I honestly love his music so many dumb and funny memories when I hear his songs. Thank you for your kind words

@darrenwoolley8433 Год назад

I absolutely love this song I loved it back then and now.

@deeholstein8144 4 года назад

Still as fresh as it ever was, in 2019. Incredible messages, presented visually and musically. big audio dynamite holds up very well today. respectable.

@NigelPeterson-pd5er 2 года назад

I saw BAD in concert in NYC in support of this album. FANTASTIC SHOW. I remember, and him about ten or so feet away from me as he came onstage, that Mick looked like he'd just had about four shots of Jack Daniels and about the same number of good lines of good coke. Maybe that's what made it such a great show.

@johnozed 6 лет назад

I love Mick Jones. Met him on the street 12 years ago. What a great bloke! A cherished memory!

@martinhyizna3299 8 лет назад

Such precious memories it's 1986 it's Brooklyn, WFMU is playing this song overtime, there's art, there's originality, I'm broke...still broke.

@zoso73 7 лет назад

Jersey Shore, having to tape to my bedroom wall the antenna from the radio in my stereo in the most awkward of ways to get the WLIR-FM 92.7 signal being broadcast from Long Island. Thank god for WLIR or this music would have passed me. PS, you're never broke if you have and give love.

@shaunellgl9114 2 года назад

For my whole life I never knew who sang this song. I never knew what they were saying. But, I was browsing through 80's and stumbled across this vid. My life is almost complete. I now can die knowing now who sings this song. Next I will learn the lyrics.( I'm glad to find the lyrics online) 😊

@thomasfranco5997 3 года назад

I love BAD still listening in 2020. Rush puts me in a good mood especially with everything going on in the USA. Unemployment is record high, Homelessness is growing, and police brutality is at all time high. Oh Yes and Covid -19 is rising. May GOD bless every human being on this GLOBE. E=MC2
