PUERTO RICO...
Sometimes the spiritual side of Mike just comes through ….. this song, to me at least, represents the heart of God, calling those who are lost, or in need, in fact, us all - to come to Him.
RIP Terry! Met you once when I was a kid and was at The Specials concert in Sophia Gardens, Cardiff. Got crushed at the front of the crowd and was pushed up onto the stage after the gig. Terry was in the wings and asked me if I was ok? As a 12 year old kid I was in awe of meeting my music hero! Never, ever forget that moment! Thanks for the music Terry!……You were the soundtrack to my youth! RIP mate! ❤
A Special man living in a special era. The sound of a generation that will live forever in our hearts. R.I.P. Terry Hall.
At my age now it's too much too Old 😃
I still have their first album as an original on vinyl. At the time, as a poor, working class school boy, I thought their music was just relevant to me. Now with the advent of UA-cam I can see it affected many people. The Specials were "Special". They were/are the only group that talk about every day problems affecting people, especially the youth: loneliness, apathy, meaning of life, boredom, the rat race, racism, urban decline, etc. What no one mentions is the genius of Jerry Dammers. I was gutted when they broke up. I was initially very excited when they reformed but then realised that maybe they were trying to recreate the past but then 40+ years later, it was too late. In addition without Dammers, it didn't feel right. The group abruptly disbanded after he spent a year composing Ghost Town, their biggest track to date. I greatly respected the fact that he did not join out of principle. He could have done so, earned good money, etc but he did not forget what happened and out of principle as he probably felt he was wronged he did not rejoin. Lynval Golding actually states that it was only after he and the other two left that they realised how much of a genius Jerry Dammers was! He was/is the genius behind The Specials. He was the creative influence behind the music, the composition, the lyrics and song writing. He is an out and out legend! This again is such a great track that I can identify with along with so many others: Do Nothing, Rat Race, Nite Klub, to name a few. RIP Terry Hall and John Bradbury.
2025 anyone ?
PUERTO RICO 🇵🇷 IN THE CENTER OF THE ISLAND...

Rest In Eternal Peace Terry. Always thought of you and the other Kings, The Specials. Thinking of your family and loved ones. Obulu (thank you) for sharing your gifts with the world and which we fans will continue to pass on. Our child still dances “I love it” as soon as she hears your anthems
RIP Rasta, Terry Hall gone but not forgotten
I first heard this on the Disky album Ska is the Limit, way back in 2007. I was eight and I was instantly hooked.
I thought he was saying "picnic" because I grew up in the provinces and never got to hear the rich vocabulary of Jamaican Patois.
I love the Specials..what a brilliant song ...brilliant band.....brilliant album !!!
Everytime I hear old school British ska like this I can't stop my fingers from playing bass and drums at the same time.
Thank you for some lovely songs for my youth. Rest in Peace!
Very sad news 😢 RIP Terry 🙏
43 years old and still awsome
United black n white its wat ska is about if love 2 tone that s he wanted
Listening to this with John peal , late at night on a school day .
I only knew the live version that got to number one until a few years ago. I think this version is far better.
Friday Night here in Sydney....getting high early and getting down ( and up again ) to some awesome music...love The Specials :)
"79 guys!! fuckin' great! old guys now, but so am I!
Me too .... xxx
Lyrics for this generation...
She's now married, with a kid, when she could be having fun with me....
SKAteniamoci!!! ⬛⬜◼◻◾◽▪️▫️🖤 Roberto from Italy 🇮🇹
I was too much too young 30 years ago! :)
Who's chained to a cooker when beans/cheese on toast is for tea?
RIP Terry 💔
Fav version
If I had to choose between the Specials and Madness I would pick the Specials all day long.
why pick?
@@kuyjuk6732 Ok let me say it a different way: I much prefer the Specials.
The specials were more edgey than Madness I get where your coming from. Both had great debut albums.
Secondo me Specials e Madness sono stati entrambi grandi gruppi! ⬛⬜⬛⬜⬛⬜ 🖤 Roberto from Italy 🇮🇹

Poor terry as hd would say lastv luv🎉
Big Tune, and true!!
The Specials sing, "You've done too much,
Much too young
Now you're married with a kid
When you could be having fun with me
Oh no, no gimme no more pickni
You've done too much,
Much too young
Now you're married with a son
When you should be having fun with me
We don't want, we don't want
We don't want no more pickni
Ain't he cute?
No he ain't
He's just another burden
On the welfare state!"
True!
"Too Much Too Young"
You've done too much,
Much too young
Now you're married with a kid
When you could be having fun with me
Oh no, no gimme no more pickni
You've done too much,
Much too young
Now you're married with a son
When you should be having fun with me
We don't want, we don't want
We don't want no more pickni
Ain't he cute?
No he ain't
He's just another burden
On the welfare state
You've done too much,
Much too young
Now you're married with a kid
When you could be having fun with me
No gimme, no gimme,
No gimme no more pickni
Call me immature
Call me a poser
I'd love to spread manure in your bed of roses
Don't want to be rich
Don't want to be famous
But I'd really hate to have the same name as you
(You silly moo)
You've done too much,
Much too young
Now you're married with a kid
When you could be having fun with me
Gi we de birth control, we no want no pickni
You've done too much,
Much too young
Now you're chained to the cooker
Making currant buns for tea
Oh no, no gimme no more pickni
Ain't you heard of the starving millions
Ain't you heard of contraception
Do you really a program of sterilization
Take control of the population boom
It's in your living room
Keep a generation gap
Try wearing a cap!
Terry Hall comes from Coventry but he has an odd accent. It doesn't sound like a Midlands accent. It's an accent that seems unplaceable. Saw him once in Camden Town market.
"Try wearing a CUP ! "
CAP..
I'm french and I was in a german Bar in Görlitz called "Café Hotspot" and the Barman was kacke
Fucken LOVE the Specials! One of the life theme lps that everyone you know, well, nearly, listens to, or atleast owns the record. #CLFpunx
12 inch version try the real one
Went to my local Chinese restaurant and asked for the Specials...I got too much Foo Yung.
Amitiés pour la famille
du copain
Fan. Fucking. Tastic
super!!!:))))
Who never had danced this song?
#DeadbabieslovesTheSpecials
Why does this version seem a bit slower than normal? I'm probably wrong lol...just seems slowed down
You might be thinking of the live version, it was on the Special AKA live EP, this was the version that was the No 1 hit, and it is a bit faster than the studio version, and, in fact, a better version
how is there one comment on such an amazing song then, this is all brexits fault...
Play Liverpool
Marley bob pimpers paradais
Bob marley pimper paradais
What's with the awful mix? The original is perfect but this remaster is overproduced to the max. Too much compression and not enough space.
Gotta say though the vocals have been brought forward way more than I've heard before- super clear. Maybe missing a little grunge?
Clueless
The other version is live you can’t compare
To slow
Far too slow...☹️
A couple of versions ...find the 1 you prefer....I like 'em both
put 1.25 speed
Surely this is a joke
This song is stupid. So what if someone wants to start a family young? Not everyone enjoys partying and drugs.
Your missing the point. It's not written about now.
You have no idea how late you are to this discussion
50 yrs later 🤦🏻♂️
Study up
No one says you have to like it, but there no need to bash it either... to each there own. Me for instance I think it's awesome
RIP TERRY LAD 🙏
