Apparently about the miners strike in 1984 that decimated most of the provincial British towns economically and spiritually then again its about any provincial town that Thatcher fucked over while in power a cruel mean spirited axe wielding cunt with no redeeming personality traits , I've said me bit, a fantastic song that flushed the hopes aspirations and dreams of generations down the toilet a fantastically poignant song
James Dean Bradfield is probably one of the most underrated singers ever his voice is fantastic Design for life is a masterpiece about the working class James sings it brilliantly
Nice little Cmajor7 at the end this guy never seems to get mentioned in the top 50 guitarist bullshit polls you see on telly now and again which seems fucking ridiculous
This and If You Tolerate This Then Your Children Will Be Next are just amazing tracks. I love them played acoustic. So powerful vocals and lyrics. Pure gold.
am I the only one who thinks this garbage and is really out of tune?? Loads of people just don't have musical ears at all. The recording of this song was absolutely phenomenal. This does not compare at all. Sorry
This song has a wide rang. He is varying the original melody and you can hear he is reaching a bit on the top notes but I would not say it’s really out of tune. It is a live acoustic and unique performance by one of music’s genuine geniuses
One of the greatest songs ever written!

If you tolerate this then suicide is painless. #StaySafe
Quite simply an outstanding masterpiece and sung brilliantly with great passion. This is without doubt one of the greatest songs ever written.

Oh man, I’m 16 again. I wish I could go back. The sound of my youth.
Yeap his voice his powerfull but smooth at the same time he has a beautiful tone.
I don't think it is an overstatement to claim that this man is a legend.
Wow, wish I could play and sing like that. Great talent. What a song. 🏴
James Dean Bradfield the best voice of 90'
Liam gallagher
damn, what a voice!
I love how close James is to snapping everytime in his voice but, he never does. Brilliant musician, one of the all time greats for sure.
I find that with learning "If you tolerate this" on guitar. I can't get anywhere near his vocal.
Holy Crap that gave me goosebumps.. that voice.
It just doesn't get any better....perfection 💟

Great band. Saw them at the Fonda Theater in Hollywood some years back. Fan ever since
This and If You Tolerate This Then Your Children Will Be Next are just amazing tracks. I love them played acoustic. So powerful vocals and lyrics. Pure gold.
Hearing it stripped down like this highlights what a great piece of writing it is in terms of chord sequence and tune. Brilliantly delivered too...
Beautiful, just beautiful.
Amazing song, makes me smile and cry at the same time!
That amazing voice! Beautiful
Melodrama at its best.. beautiful and haunting and makes you think so much after hearing it .

I'd say you were in the minority
Well if Barry French says it's out of tune it must be
Lets Hear Your Version

Rather out of tune than fooling the world that you can sing
reckon this is a 💩 version
