The Alarm 'The Stand' the Tube 1983 

Criminally underrated band

I’ve always loved The Alarm and this song is epic! One of the greatest moments of my life was jumping with Mike Peters in the pit at a Big Country concert in 2013. He put his arm around me! lol

Saw The Alarm twice. Once at the Brighton Dome in about 1984 and the Brighton Top Rank Suite in 1986/87. Absolutely brilliant protest rock.

Fan of the Alarm for about 35 years Mike Peters is the best

I saw the Alarm open up for U2 at the Oepheum in Boston in the early 80s

I saw them last nite in Tucson, Az. Still good

Saw the Alarm in '86 at Wembley in London - the Brits had just heard INXS and could not care, but the Alarm sure woke everyone up. Had never heard of them in "The States." But this song - one of the great songs of any band in my book.

Great band from the 80s

until I watched dom hemmingway id forgotten the alarm now I cant stop playing the stand

When I first heard this band, I thought they would be so big.

Grandi, un saluto dall'Italia, immensi, è un peccato, che si siano sciolti.

The drums are everything. Love Twist! Love The Alarm! Time to bring back 80s hair.

Who else remembers Rock ‘N’ Roll?

Im in that audience somewhere. Great night. Didnt have tickets but blagged our way in anyway. Loved every minute of it. Met the guys in the pub afterwards. Did I say it was a great night? :-)

Loved this band but time has gone X 40

Simply simply lovely

Damn Great Song!!!!

Loved this when I saw it at the time, love it still. Thank u. Xx

Mike the front man had cancer and I'm glad that he recovered and the early 80's the Alarm had hits and 99 guns and mtv was proud to having mike and the Alarms on radio and mtv had a collection of my buddy Mike and my mother died of cancer 5 years ago and I do pray and now I preach and do Prison Bible Ministry Mike God is good all the time and Jesus be with Mike always

Why does everyone go on about U2 they got lucky but I can say the Alarm were brilliant......

one of the best TV ever the tube

Is it just me or does Mike sound like Joe Strummer?? brought life back to Big Country....RIP Stuart

That concert looks like a PARTY!!Llooks like really, really fantastic fun

Seen the alarm on Friday 13 in Birmingham for the 3rd time ..... brilliant

Saw The Alarm playing in the preprogram of U2 in Ahoy Rotterdam. About 1985. Lots of pictures and films must have been taken. Was a great concert! PeDenBe

The start of this song is fantastic, second to none. Whatever happen to this band?? That harmonica, has the jail house vibe to it. :P

I’ve never heard this but it is terrific! Bass player adds some melodies to the song, since the 12 string guy is mostly knocking out chords. Good stuff indeed.

Nr 1 på Stjerneposes munnspilliste! :D

I am wondering if there is a audio recording of this performance. Tape, vinyl....? The reason I ask is because I am almost certain that I heard this very version on WXRT in Chicago sometime in the early 1990s....

Did I kill Hannah baker?

( hear a bit of The Clash in this version.

Read the book by Stephen King-mind blowing:Trashcan Man, Randall Flagg-The Man with No Name.

at first you notice the hair... then boots and gear... hmmm kinda punk.... but there's those big bluddy acoustics... and a harmonica... protest songs... kinda Clash... doubt that would offend them... but honestly I love the Alarm for saving my life when Prog died... [ U2 too... and later... SIMPLE MINDS ! ! ]

Who is Trash Can and why are his eyes a feet apart? Great song one of my all time favorites

So eine geile Band!! Wo sind die eigentlich abgeblieben?? Die beste Musik gab's eh in den 80ern 😁

Cool song. They all look like they stuck their fingers in an electric socket with that kind of hair.

Odd to hear them sing The Chant Has Just Begun back then

hahha awesome

Lovely Welshmen

Snake Farm brought me here.

😎🍺🇩🇪👍

yo la escuché en un tributo a children of the corn

He stole Paul Westerberg's hair!

Don. Fucking. Hemingway

@kylethompson4 They didn't own it because the music industry want's more phony do gooders like Bono that folks like the Alarm. I quit listening to Me 2 after War.

@poppyhimbo lol maybe at some parts.. But other than that its just you

Hannah Baker'ı ben mi öldürdüm?

I was 13 when this song came out and remember trying to pretend to like it just to try and hook up with a cute girl who was into them. Awful song. They did have better ones imo that eventually grew on me.
