God, that opening 30 seconds is like a time warp back to the 90's... If you lived through that time, you can listen to those 30 seconds and remember where you were that beautiful summer, when nothing mattered, and everyday lasted forever and blended into the next..... what a time that was.
A Roma. Ero a casa mia a Roma , ero ancora troppo piccolo per viaggiare da solo e troppo grande per viaggiare con i miei genitori. Il tempo non lo può ingannare nessuno e fidati i conti alla fine dovranno pagarli tutti. Periodo meraviglioso fortunatamente.
I miss those times when there was no filming in clubs. Only pure music and you alone in the middle of hundreds of people dancing to the music. I loved this feeling of freedom so much. Greetings from Berlin.
It's not even about the music anymore, it's about all the flashiness and all that extra "artistry & pageantry" to boost the price of tickets. "Raves" are one step away from having "Budweiser" slapped all over them. 😢
I remember watching this as a kid realising my dad had the same problem they did watching them go through what they did in the film scared me for the rest of my childhood years but my dad got clean he chose life his kids his grandkids I love him so much so much respect for that man 💙
Every year on this day I listen to this song. It is the day my friend died from an overdose in 1997. This was the last song we heard together. The emotion that day will never be forgotten.
I spent my July 97. in England and in Manchester Virgin store I bought my first CD ever, Trainspotting soundtrack. I was 17. And now you ask me what I feel when I bump into this tune with 43 on my back? I feel like bursting into tears, that's what I feel. And when I try to explain to youngsters that 20s are the best yet shortest decade that will never return I see they just don't understand my language.
Was at tribal gathering when CARL COX DROPPED THIS !!! and the whole place went MENTAL.... was like yesterday.... never forget that as long as im alive... EPIC !
Does anyone else get a lump in the throat with the intro of this song? It's unbearable and beautiful and I can't believe the deep emotions this song brings.
Yes i do and I hate it. Makes me feel sick. I can't imagine what deep addicts or trauma survivors go thru to feel this as a person who is both but not with hardcore drug of choice and abuse but not the deepest depth of feelings of abuse. This music only makes me imagine that those who enjoy have gone thru the unimaginable worst.
If anybody watches trainspotting, the scene when begbie brings Renton down for a cig. This song kicks in as the smoke hits Rentons face. Brilliant film , direction n soundtrack. Say no more 👍
This was my dad’s favourite song ever, always on in the car, on the radio, computer everywhere. It’s been a year and a half now since he passed and since listening to this song, but I’m so proud that he wanted this song to see him off, love you dad.
This song transcends time and space. Transports me back to 1996 fresh out of college and choosing life. It never gets old or dated. I could and have listened to it on repeat for a weekend. Rarely does a song of this length (except ones by The Cure) sustain their appeal, energy and focus.
Shit I was born in '96 and this shit sounds like something out of a lucid dream. Only seen a half hour of Trainspotting too randomly at a friend's gouze.
Yup The Cure hit the same. So great. Instilled a love of techno (as we called it in the 90s as high school kids) or house music deep inside of me. I could also listen to it for a weekend. Also, I love the references without shame to babes and babes and babes and wet tampons. Yikes. Gross. Also, stop with the velvet mouth stuff. I am clearly 44 and old. Shouting LAGERRRR LAGER. Okay, mega whitething. Are you making this up on the fly? I love those lyrics. Makes no sense, except …girls and drinking. I mean. Don’t get me wrong. The best things in life..I’m a girl and I drink. This song wears me OUT these days. It’s almost ten minutes. I could clean a bathroom and make tea in less time. You were fresh outta college so you’re a bit older than I but..let’s go back to the 90s? Take my hand.
When I hear this song, my life passes before my eyes. The great 90s, I love that decade forever and I hope we can all have a carefree party again someday.
The fact we are even commenting on RU-vid means those days are well and truly gone. It's shit but if you truly wanna experience those days again find people who are willing to leave their phones in the house. Go into the middle of a feild on a beautiful sunny day and get fucking mashed
20 years ago today (it was father's day, mind you) my dad became no more. This song reminds me of a better time, watching great movies like this on the couch with my brother, mother, and of course him. Fuck I miss those times. Where the hell did 2 decades go? Blink of an eye. Miss you dad.
the lyrics may not make sense but this song is absolutely beautiful. You can listen to it if you're sad, happy or absolutely bladdered. Will never ever get old.. thank you underworld for this masterpiece of a tune 🙌 ps. Choose Life always x
GTiR23 The Chameleons are pure Ether and Dream-like sounds, Script of the Bridge and What does anything mean, simply masterpieces. "Nostalgia" is my favorite. Cocteau Twins, Slowdive, also beautiful.

"But Begbie, I couldn't give a shit about him. And Sick Boy, well, he'd have done the same to me if only he'd have thought of it first. And Spud, well, okay, I felt sorry for Spud -- he never hurt anybody."
"The truth is that I'm a bad person. But, that's gonna change - I'm going to change. This is the last of that sort of thing. Now I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life."
I’m going to jail for the first time. What advice do you give me. Had my friend tell me where a big guy eyed up his watch. Chris took it off, threw it on the ground stood on it. And said “there you have it”.

Listening to this as I approach my 42 birthday tomorrow. My little brother overdosed on Sept 1, 37 years old, after 5 months of coming off of heroin and being clean. He thought he could handle fentanyl and he couldn’t. Please remember when you get clean - you can’t ever go back. Only forward.
the best scene in T2 Trainspotting is when they are running on the streets, and Even McGergor(Renton) thinks back when they were teenagers, running exactly at the same part of the street, and then this song is being played...I literally got goosebumps at that scene...
This is one of those tunes I can belt out of my speakers as loud as I can... fantastic. If you listen to all of the instruments it's absolute genius...and that drum beat at 1.38 sends shivers down me. Then the drum beat changes at 2.24 where there are about six or seven beats per second. Love it. Love and miss the 90s!
Ahh man... So many memories... These guys had a near miss in the charts in 1983 as members of Freur with the song "Doot-Doot", which got to #57 in the UK Charts... In those early days they were a synth-pop / New Wave act, with no inclination that they would one day evolve into Techno pioneers... I used to see Karl and Rick out and about in Cardiff (where they were from, and where I grew up)... When Trainspotting came out, I was instantly grabbed by this song, and couldn't believe it when I realised Underworld were Karl and Rick from Freur, who I'd used to see walking around in Cardiff years earlier! Surreal stuff! This tune is still, for me, one of the greatest records of the 90s
This song gives me such powerful flashbacks to the 90s. Just sad that no other decade I will see in my lifetime will even slightly compare to the 90s. I'm just glad I was there

Why is it I cry every time I hear this? So many good memories of people, places and experiences...love it sooo much. Sounds like it was made yesterday.
It’s not just a music it’s the whole life, your youth in 4 minutes. It’s not just your memories. It’s a masterpiece that makes you just happy wherever you are
This song is such a pure adrenaline and I just want hit the dance floor and dance dance dance and forget all the rest, life is too short man let's just live and enjoy it while we can😊
I'm in my 30's, hadn't watched this film since it came out in the 90's, I watched it again last night, what a fucking master piece! I recommend anyone who hasn't seen it for a while to give it a re-run, you won't regret it.
meni je isto '96 bila odlična godina. filmovi, glazba....'90 u globalu. da, prošla sam etničko čišćenje, izbjeglištvo, ali to sad nije razlog da se spominje na ovakvim linkovima. ne moraš uletavat i 'kvarit' ono što je bilo lijepo/krasno/nezaboravno, pogotovo ljudima koji veze nisu imali s Balkanom
Never did hard drugs before. I think watching this in the 90’s as a teen is what kept me away! Thank you Trainspotting!! I still have my old CD soundtrack too!
I hate that I barely caught the extreme tail end of it. I went to my first rave in 2006 when I was 14 and I just had this feeling that it was an echo from a different time. When I was like 6 or 7 I had seen raves on TV and in movies, and heard stories from friends' older siblings and I was really looking forward to it. It was fun, but after the first one, the rest of the underground raves I went to got broken up by the cops within an hour or two. Sometimes they were there before people even got set up. I did get to experience the heyday of emo but that's not nearly as good as the 90s rave scene. There were bad vibes all around, lots of drama and abusers. I don't know if raves had the same problem but it wasn't remembered because the internet wasn't around, or if it was less of an issue because ravers were slightly older than emo kids or something.
@@hjibakkkihjibakkki6408 you're older than me. I missed out on goth too, especially pre-Columbine goth. Mall goth was played out by 2007. They're just trends though. The more important thing was that young people were spending more time online and playing video games. That and the 2008 recession closed a lot of meeting places, and then in the early 2010s those places were gentrified.
acabo de ver la película Trainspotting y lo primero que hice cuando termino, fue agarrar el celular y buscar esta joya. He estado en depresión y tmb he usado drogas y aunque esa etapa de mi vida ya quedó atrás, todavía recuerdo como me sentía en esos dias cuando me encerraba en mi cuarto y lloraba de la impotencia. Esta canción me lleva a esos mementos y se siente bien al saber que pude salir de eso y ahora soy una persona “normal” con trabajo casa metas y una mascota que mantener.
I was at a festival in the uk last summer. We were right at the front for the previous set but were talking about leaving to get drinks soon when a 40-something-banker-type guy turns around and says in a gravelly voice “you’re not going to want to miss this one.” I had no idea how right he was until the first few chords of this song blast out into the crowd and we’re blinded by lazer beams. A tidal wave of memories hit me like a brick wall from when I was too young to be watching trainspotting and letting it envelop me and my life. It was a feeling that could not be replicated. Ever.
People say: What happened: you were always there and then you were gone? When did you get here? How is it that I didn't see you? Where were you? And I smile sweetly, gently and then think or say, "I was born slippery." Thank you, sean7000 for keeping this anthem alive!
I can remember the time when I first heard that song in 1995. I was playing games on my pc (X-Wing, to be precise), and contrary to my habit to have the game sound on my stereo, I had tuned into some radio station instead. I can't remember why I did that, but it must've been a sign from the universe. Imagine this 14-years-old kiddie, playing some sim game with his joystick and listening to Born Slippy at around 11pm in the evening. It was a remarkable experience I'll never forget.
Virginia Bellabarba don’t go back to it it will destroy you and your loved ones your feel guilty about missing things and never get over it which will put you into a deeper hole just take it one day at a time progress is progress
Last year I watched Trainspotting 1 and 2 with my parents. I had never seen Trainspotting but they had both watched it back when it came out in the 90's, they were around 20 years old back then. A couple days after watching the first Trainspotting we went to watch T2 Trainspotting and as we watched it I realized that the movie was about aging and growing older. Knowing this while sitting there with my parents who were then in their late 40's, I don't know, I just get very emotional when I hear that melody at the start of this song.
Yep , I like your parents I’m am late 40s I Saw trainspotting when released as a young addict now 15 yrs clean so I to get emotional at the beginning of that track. Tar colin
A child of the 90s and 2000s EDM scene and raves, I drenched myself in this stuff. Judge me all you want, but deep EDM is like classical music to me with a massive beat and meaning. My eye's looking like dinner plates (hmmm, guess why), deep philosophic and yet primal reaction to this insane music. I have never ever been in a group of people so gorgeous than those time with my EDM circle of friends some of whom were DJs and they were my dearest friends. Yeah ok, have a crack at me but you're never gonna take away from me those amazing moments, big name DJs, at least 16 mates on the town seeing the best DJs of the time and everyone is in such a great place. No violence, no crap, pure enjoyment with really smart music with a message and a shake your arse off attitude. Why not?
Thru all the comments on this vid ur's is the most special n heart warming one...bcuz I'm also a 90s n 2000s kid n edm,techno,house n dubstep was the only genre of music I really listened to.
as long as you dont mean the rubbish EDM crap like garrix & hardwell then im on your side haha 90s & possibly up to 2002-2003 was the best time ever for dance music until all hell broke lose & we had bieber fever
Brings me back to the 90's. Seattle to London and back a few times: cool girls, great music, and far too many drugs, but this was life for those of us drinking deeply in those days. This book and subsequent film managemed to capture that zeitgeist perfectly.
You are a genuine old-school electronica fan... you get into this stuff through Jean Michel Jarre and/or Kraftwerk? 😁 Solidarity my wrinkly raver brother! 👊
Underworld is my favourite Stand... in the entire series, full stop. It's one of those stands where you see it for a good chunk of time but it still feels like they barely even scratched the surface of everything that it's capable of.
Although I wasn’t born until 95, this song brings back nostalgia for me. My parents had me at the time this was filmed, split soon after and my mum passed away in 06. So I feel connected to their youth through this film and music. I never knew my dad until 2016 when I was 21 and a few months later we went to the cinema to watch Trainspotting as it is his favourite film (I’d never heard of it) and then a few days later T2 came out so we watched that as well. We haven’t spoken for a few years now sadly us being close was short lived but Trainspotting is now one of my favourite films and whenever I watch it I feel very emotional and nostalgic❤️
@@MatrixEdit exactly. live and relationships are not easy,bt short and fast running. speak with who you feel connected, untill you regret you havent done it...
oh to experience the 90s. im a 00s kid, but trainspotting is my favourite film for so many reasons. its the most disgustingly beautiful masterpiece in cinema, in my opinion, and i feel like this song just ties everything all together
I can clearly remember skipping class to buy beer for the very first time and sneak into a projection room to see Trainspotting, after we got drunk inside the school we went out and played basketball til the day turned to night. I felt like a small adult for the first time, the first time I actually choose life.
