I am only here coz I found my 45rpm single of this (streets of London B side) I actually went to watch them live at skegness along with the Damned circa 1978/79
All those punk band millionaires now living in the leafy suburbs and having lunch with their bank managers are now doing this, whilst their fans are scratching around down the back of the sofa for a quid. Ha ha ha
+R.C Jones Lemmy's entire life takes precedence over this song. Would be great to hear him growling it tho! He MUST have sung it live at one point, even if it was in the bath. "You say you've got a massive mole, so what?"

@BOB hey, Berklee McSmarts, he sure was talking about the values, not genre classification by the scene kid encyclopedia. Anyways, punk-rock is real punk, what else would be?
They didn't know shit about punk till they started this band. They were just bikers who started a band for some gigs. The while story of this band is hilarious but they jam.
Absolutely brilliant!!I loved this in 1981 and I love it now in 2008. I used to play this to shock my parents!!!And it did!!It still makes me smile now, its still pretty outrageous even in todays "anything goes" world. Super stuff.
I saw this lot supporting The Damned back in the day. Best concert I ever went to. Chaos from start to finish. Two true punk bands one after the other. Both outsiders to the punk elite at the time but both miles better and more entertaining than the Clash or the Pistols. Long live the Anti Nowhere League.
I was there but can't remember where in London it was (palais?) Did Becky Bondage and Vice Squad support as well? Did the windows in the doors get smashed in the crush? I was in London waiting to get a coach to Geneva the next day and was walking over Hammersmith Bridge when I met 4 or 5 of my mates from where I lived 40 miles away. Talk about coincidence and they had a spare ticket. Result.
I had the privilege of seeing them a number of times… First time they were the support act for the Dead Kennedys… the Venue I think. Almost no one in the audience he ever heard of them. It was like being electrocuted with pure energy and pleasure and violence. The set was so good that when the DKs came in they were vigorously booed with requests that the ANL come back on for an encore… which they did…..to shock a crowd of hardened punks. Not easy. But they did it.
Nearly 30yrs ago, a friend (Spike the Punk) played me this & I laughed so much I had to play it 2 or 3 times b4 hearing full song/lyrics, which I've referred back too many times when Cnuts need to hear their not the dogs bollox after all 😂😂😂❤
I was first introduced to this song at 14 by a friend and camp. I thought I would outgrow it but I haven't. It's still just as funny as it was 25 years ago. I have had lots of rough times in my life and every time I need something to remind me how to not give a fuck so I can let go and smile again, this song has come to the rescue. It's better than therapy, and there are no words I can think of with to thank these guys enough for creating it.
Although, I actually like Metallica' cover version ... nothing ... but, nothing beats Anti-Nowhere League's original! The attitude, the camp, the performance ... it's all from the heart: the real deal!
Punk, the only genre where a 144p video adds to the aesthetic instead of making it unwatchable.
There's also Black Metal in that category
Some videos are considered to good quality even in 144p for us black metal heads
I believe the still film skateboard promos and movies in 144p for that reaaon
Dedicated to them power walkers.
What do you expect if you only spend 144p ?
In my family we have a little tradition of always playing this on Christmas morning while we sip our sherry. Simply charming!
Best comment ever 😅
So what! :D
I might play it while I tuck into my plum pudding this year.
@Barney McGrew No, I meant it literally! Ha!
I read it as "Cherry" for a second and internally died inside until I reread it.
i’m old enough to remember when this came out. it was fucking GOLD then and it’s GOLD NOW.
Me too, and record shops being raided by cops for selling it
So what
I am only here coz I found my 45rpm single of this (streets of London B side)

Funny thing is the lead singer daughter porsha was hot used to hang out with paris hilton for a bit if i remember who would have thought
I used to love them, now i think they're fucking posers
Buried my granny to this. Rip Nellie
now THAT made me laugh! :D
RIP Nellie, long live Nelliie!
I would've loved to have met nellie.
hahahhaha
got video from that?? grandpa was happy???
Can't beat a good ol' fashioned love song.
Oh what a charming, therapeutic song to adhere to, while I'm trimming ones roses in ones garden.

The Lyrics comes from the deepest part of his soul.

Why oh why hasn't this been entered in for the Eurovision song contest?
😂yes why not the best punk pop song I now.
Sorry for my bad english, but is this song about love?
Łukasz S No, lol. Search for the lyrics.

Seems to sum up most of my relationships. So yes, it's about love.
Yes

@@ericmack9593 I wish they had this in our karaoke😂😂😂
I sang it last night.
Goes great at family reunions
I'd love to hear Lemmy have a take on this! It would suit him to a tee!
+R.C Jones I thought he did, but now i'm not sure. I bet the google knows

Probably the best comment I have ever read in my life, nice one !
I feel like this song should play every time right before somebody post something on Facebook.
They should play "I Hate People" in Tesco and Asda on a Wednesday!
Great idea.. I'll vote for it to be
I moved to Hastings because of this song.
So what?
Did you find an old man or a goat?
I first heard this song in a pub called the Queen Adelaide in Hastings old town, fuckin mental it was.
@Don't Care ive lived in brighton, too. so what
Didn't realize there was schlong and asshole in this video until just now. LOL
What I love about the Anti-Nowhere League most of all, I think, is that they look like villains straight out of a Mad Max movie!
14 years later...but Ive always thought the same. Animal looks like he belongs right in a Mad Max movie lol
Easy there Van Peebles@@friendlyfirefighter4645
Gotta love the Biker Punk look
Perfect for sensitive, introspective music listeners the world over. I think they captured the spirit of a generation and recorded it for posterity.
Fabulous comment 😁
So what?
Kids and younger people would cry if they heard this.
So what?

Just love those old romantic songs
People who post a map on Facebook showing where they've traveled to around the word.
Just saw them last night in LA and they still kick ass.
Greatest punk tune ever
I agree. I just found the original a week or so ago and can't get enough of these guys. They are the shit.

He sings like an Angel
Animal has the voice of a London, Grizzled, Pissed off Angel
I so so wish rianna would cover this.Its such a romantic song of caring and understanding.
Hilarious, every line is a gem. Even within the punk scene they were outsiders due to their extreme political incorrectness.
Probably why they are still some of the best while other bands became thin-skinned corporate whores.
Use to know animal he was a doorman in Tunbridge wells in the early 80s funny bloke tbh
They weren't on the same level as Dayglo Abortions, though.
These days "punks" are nothing but political correctness.
Check out “The day the word turned gay”. Fuck political correctness.
greatest opening line ever: Well, I've been to Hastings, I've been to Brighton, I've been to Eastbourne too!
So what ?
I wasn't aware for a while, but I finally looked up where those places actually are, and it makes the line even better to realize it.
@dad 69 420 ಠ_ಠ ϟ Hastings, Brighton and Eastbourne are all within about 35 miles of each other.
@dad_-et9qcseaside towns on the south east coast of England, once thriving holiday destinations now they're like heavens waiting room.
This song always makes me happy.
The guitar work is genius!
Saw ANL back in the early 80's and this song and women always smashed
Bought this back in the day.... my dad was horrified ... Still love anwl
Best record ever released - should have been a number one!
Doesn't get better than this.
why isn't this on FIFA14 ?
not enough racism and xenophobia

UltraGaivalas Realy? Cause you kiddies need to find good music, not playing some stupid video game......
Absolutely charming...👌
its like a bucket list init ha ha
Great band great tune !
The ultimate punk song nothing quite like it before or since bounced about to this at the Brunel rooms Swindon 82/83 truly superb
Seeing these live in an hour and a half they seem good!
Lol Metallica covering this was the best, but cheers to the original!! Never hear it till now
Absolute Masterpiece! Bravo ! Bravo!
probably one of the best punk songs
ever concieved
Even melvins cant get guitar as sleazy as this. Love it!
Saw em live at the Waterfront on Thurs 8th November in Norwich.still rockin after all these years.
Seeing them Saturday night , in Tunbridge wells a homecoming gig for them
Saw these twice at Bowes Lyon, Stevenage! Fcuking amazing live back in the 80's!
Proper punk. Metallica's cover was great and pretty faithful but Animal's vocals are so raw
I fucking love this song😂🤘
I love the original but this has got to be the best thing Metallica has ever covered😂
So What?!
Seen em a few times in the mid 1980s. Most excellent!
Going to the Nottingham leg of the tour. Uk subs...Anti Nowhere League AND Motorhead....Life doesn't get any better than that.
one of the best gigs ive ever seen!
I love this typical british Guitar-Punk sound. Superb!
Although, I actually like Metallica' cover version ... nothing ... but, nothing beats Anti-Nowhere League's original! The attitude, the camp, the performance ... it's all from the heart: the real deal!
amazing live!
opened up for them last summer!
This was a delightful accompaniment to my yoga session this evening. Thank you.
Lived it love it . met them all so What
I haven't heard this for years, but the theme was a standard joke with friends years ago. Love it.
Brilliant timeless tune
Beautiful vibes! Feel the rainbow and keep it real!
The best lyrics ever written.
Used to metallica`s version, but this was really raw and funny as well :)
Such nice quality.
hahaahahaha como eu amo essa linda canção😍
This song describes the whole internet thing . Way years before... Amazing
I keep on listening and listening to it again it just gives me so much energy and it is so reliable to my rebellion nature😂.
Would love to hear Motorhead covering this song
Metallica did.
Tragic, an 11 year old comment. Lemmy's gone!
lol this is so early 80's British punk it's unreal
wow, i was into the antinowhere league around 1985, had their first 2 albums,
WHO DECIDED TO BRING THEM BACK!!!!!
This taught me to accept those that are not like me. You did what? So what.
Tunbridge Wells's finest band.
Until Killdren.
que chimba esta banda :D
bring back the good old days
They never left
I prefer Celine Dionne's version.
lol
Nice one Wally
I prefer Barry Manilow & Mr. Rogers' version !
and the carpenters version as well
@@davidnewbold1848 John Denver's was the best.

People can say whatever they want. This song kind of made history. Period.
God I love this band
I feel like this is the perfect rebuttal to any gangsta rap song.
More more more better

rahmetli Lemmy's voice really could suit this song perfectly..
but it's sad he's in better place right now
I'm not sure about it, hell is a place for pain. But fairies wear boots thats sure.
Best concert I ever went to was Motörhead supported by ANL and Girlschool. Magic.
macp0333 It was amazing mate. Glasgow O2. 👌
Just saw these guys in Liverpool last night. How have I not heard of them before?!
Aww bless, he looks so tormented!....Jst wanna give him a hug.
"So What"....am sure he cares deeply really!
Simply marvelous! Such pristine, pure melodies. A single, yet rich tear rolling down my cheek in light of such undeterred beauty!
Ha!! Love this song!! I first heard it from Metallica several years ago & just now was curious who they covered it from!!! Love this version too!! (;
