Lyrically great for sure but it loses its impact on the album.gkbill wrote: ↑20 Feb 2020, 2:30pmHello,Marky Dread wrote: ↑20 Feb 2020, 1:57pm"Too Much Too Young" is way too slow in its album incarnation for me.
It's a bit different rhythm granted - but that's one thing I'd consider a plus rather than a minus. Lyrically, it's so good and important.

Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
Does anyone else feel the lyrics to Little Birch come off as a touch dated (no ill intent on he part of the specials implied, but the sign feels a bit out of sync with at least my sensibilities). Anyways, what a colossal album. You could randomly select any 5 songs and have a case for them.
1. Concrete Jungle
2. A Message to You, Rudy
3. Nite Klub
4. (Dawning of a) New Era
5. Doesn't Make it Alright
My old punk band used to cover the last one, tho just in practice as we were awful at it.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop

I think I read somewhere they tried to address this and wrote a song called Little Dick but couldn't perform it as there was always too much laughing and pointing at each other.

Hahaha. I'm quoting Flex. I was pissed up (and I think he was too) in the centre of London as a decent but defensive ska-punk band covered Little Bitch and he and I skanked like mad.gkbill wrote: ↑20 Feb 2020, 5:36pmHello,Silent Majority wrote: ↑20 Feb 2020, 5:30pmWhoo!
