I don't know why I spent all evening obsessively trying to figure out where this video was filmed but that parade of shops he walks past is on Lady Margaret Road in Southall, West London. You're welcome.
CarterTheUnstoppableFaxMachine - Kinda doesn't surprise me, but well researched. I wasn't living in London at the time (left there in '97) but it reminds me so much of what I saw around N Circular Rd @ Wood Green/Palmer's Green X roads/New Southgate area for years. All the best.
This video was shot in january of 2003, so it will be 20 years old in a little over a month. That confident little kid is now a grown man in his early thirties.
When this video was out, the kid in it also featured in some skits on MTV2 before ad breaks. He would be sitting in a pub with a pint, and address the camera directly and say things like “Status Quo - that’s real music, students!”
What a track. Britain really does produce some talent. Huge shout from the US. Loving these guys and also other various UK electronica based acts like Faithless, Burial, Chemical Brothers, FSOL, Groove Amada, UNKLE, Underworld, Massive Attack, Leftfield, Stereo Mcs, The Streets, Goldie, Sleaford Mods, The Bug, ALLFLAWS
there was a kid like this in every English village/town in the 80s. Our one went on to do amazingly well in life. All that child like aggression turns into motivation to do well as an adult.
I understand that, I mean there wasn't much shit to do back then, the kids were bored as fuck, and some of them had nasty families, thank God some ended up doing well later in their lives.
It definitely can. It did for me... eventually. Luckily I'm still only in my 20s so I have some young years to enjoy past my absurd self destruction phase
Best song, has helped me raise my head and voice many times! As a child I was the opposite. I wish I had had a little self-confidence. ♠#blackheartupsidedown
Damn, it only took a decade for it to be in my recommendation. The kid reminds me of my older cousin when we were kids back in '80s. That was him during summer while his parents worked.
german cavallo half the cars in this video are either considered classics like that shitty Mercedes or are just shitty bangers now like the Astra at the end
I listen to this song maybe 4 times a year and it’s always because I WANT to hear it! But I never remember the name so I always search “English kid walking down road” and it never fails.
this guys created a sound of their own ... tapped a blend of electronic music with a punk feeling in this track that i've never heard again since. fuck! their whole Ego War album is BEAST .. as original as it comes.. scratch that! their whole discography is amazing ranging from techno to ska to rap to house punk and more. I`m baffled they never became bigger. But with this track reaching 10 million views recently, after 18 years of it's release it confirms they were waaay ahead with their game. they are still one of the key elements in my musical taste up to this day. I hope they reunite some day soon and gain the recognition they deserve...
Still my favourite tune from Audio Bullys... That kid was so iconic
Jep
This should be the National Anthem of the UK 🇬🇧
Yep ...and also all east european countries in the 90s...
This song is so British IT divided my phone and conquered it...
It is now❤
is the three shift system affecting your perception of reality much ?

I love just randomly happening across bangers like this.

Dude, same here!
This is funny but us back in. The days when all of us was the Biss
Cool 😎 asf
love to see all them old cars in the background especially the VW GTI at 1:50
I feel this kid is not even pretending...reminds me of being young and knowing kids like him
Ha me too one of the hardest kids I ever met was in 3rd grade. Only until High school did anyone even come close.
😂yeah,,, right. You were this cool as a kid.
@@Drak976 Why
still one of the coolest clips ever. little guy is doing his really tough, mid 20s ,hooligan part very convincing.
It was supposed to show hooligans for what they are. Ridiculous little kids acting tough...
Still a classic 20 year's later!!
Well look at this little bloke
Only thing this wee man is missing is a Staffy and a spliff
Even to this day, this tune bangs!
This is going to be one hell of a long funeral...because this song definitely needs to be played too!
Gotta remember this line

This video/song carries an energy I can't quite explain but I keep coming back...
Thanks for the purest punk vibe in a while YT so many feels like a kid growing up in NJ for me
Proper choon this one. Used to listen to this every Friday nights while getting ready to go out & about with the lads
6 years later and this song finally bangs.

My old man showed me your tunes when I was younger. You lot are legends
His dad left for cigerettes.
This kid was the one who dragged him back home and ACTUALLY bought him the cigs.
Bad boy waiting for the light to turn green, i like that
And if you don't stop he'll rip your engine out!

This brings back so many solid memories and some lucid ones.
Lucid dreams more like it... 😂 you're not that cool man.
I haven't heard this for years!! Love it!!
A very under rated band..
saw this for the first time, and this is easily the greatest thing i’ve ever seen
When this video was out, the kid in it also featured in some skits on MTV2 before ad breaks. He would be sitting in a pub with a pint, and address the camera directly and say things like “Status Quo - that’s real music, students!”
Good song for the old school people.
An absolutely brilliant video. I loved it. Masterfully pieced.
What a track. Britain really does produce some talent. Huge shout from the US.

Best endorsement ever of great bands!
Im Swedish and i love this!
01:44 Did anyone hear the sample that was used in Teen Wolf with Michael J Fox?
This reminds me of my 9 year old son. He has suffered so many health issues and is still cock of the walk strutting through life with certainty.

Hes still a baller to this day

I had 5 or 6 in mine lol
In rural Montana as well. At least the cops don't usually care about fighting here unless someone gets messed up.
@@jameshealey293 Had that many on my street lmao. May have been one of them myself for a bit -.-

Yeah, but five years younger.

One of the best music videos ever!!!
Me too. Back in the 90s
My parents worked their assessment off. Lol. I could not say plural asses❤. They truly did.
God I remember when this came out man, the music video is fantastic, Audio Bullys were mega in the 2000s.
Why am I only hearing this song now. dam it rocks out
Well better than never hearing it but I will never hear it for the first time
Alejandro Lopez I wish i knew of this song when I was working the doors or fighting I would had this song as my fight song to the ring
This child is in reality an adult. It shows his inner age.

This reminds me of an overnight layover I had in Heathrow.
Maybe YT recommendations are starting to work, because I like this one!
I just got recommended this, and I agree.
Christopher Bailey same for me:)
Mine have been on point for about a year now. It’s the reason I use YT as much as I do.
Agree
Same, and judging by your profile pic and name we're into the same stuff. I don't like UA-cam knowing me better.
Great group their albums are really good uk music
Giving of big ‘This is England’ vibes

This is me in 1998 as a 9 year old on my north english estate. I have never been so nailed to the wall in music form.
everyone on or near estates for decades in the UK

This kids attitude has nothing to do with confidence.
Just acting like a typical asshole.
You admire psychopaths dontcha
