@@unbroken1010 Having lost their hate campaign against every other group, race, religion, and sexuality, Conservatives turned their hatred to transgender people. GFY fash.
I know you won't see this Mr. Lydon, but I'm very sorry you've just lost Nora. When it comes to a marriage in the music business, you both had high standards. Much respect to you both.
Every single song on this album is excellent. It’s one of those where you don’t skip any. My ex-husband introduced me to P.I.L. when we first met in 1990. We got married in 1991 and divorced in 2018. Listening to this always takes me back to that first summer, walking to each other’s houses, just driving around listening to music, happy to be together.
@@shilohxo9291 Short story is he cheated on me with a co-worker, asked for a trial separation during which he was supposed to live with his mother for 3 months, but he had really moved in with her. I filed when I finally figured it out. I had cancer in 2001. I’d rather have gone thru that again. I’m much better now, lol. Time’s finally working. 🙏🏻
I am always sad to hear of marriages that don't work out. I have found myself in relationships that seemed impossible to repair as well. I wish you the best.
@Amy Barret: I introduced P.I.L. to my girlfriend when I met her, 13 years ago. She was far younger than me (she was 27, I was 39). I hated the age difference, didn't want people to think I was that kind of guy (I'm nearer in age of her parents, 11 years) but we really fell in love and I told her she shouldn’t because I was going to die way before her. She gave me the best answer « I could get hit by a car any day. Who says you'll die first? »... The was the most brillant answer I ever heard and there is not a day I regret my choice! We still listen to P.I.L. and I really hope that our story will never end like yours. I know I will never do that to her. Loyalty is too important to me (in love and in friendship). I'm really sorry that your story ended up like that, I hope you're doing well and I'm sending you a big hug. Your story touched me!
Punk is an Attitude NOT a Musical Style! There will never be anyone more Punk than John Lydon no matter whether he's singing a Folk Song, a Pop Song or a Heavy Metal Song!
Agreed punks from my gen born 87 to 97 were posers. Im the only one who didnt wear the uniform unless i stole a cool jacket or vest snd i only had a mohawk on occasion only stole the color had frkends cut the hair and used super glue in it. The others were only in it for the parties inwas in it for more and fuck were they jealous. No mohawk i actjally buy xlothes sometimes but ive always love a variety of music and when my friend died i realized i was rhe last true punk. He didnt put that show together when he was alive for peoole to grieve he wanted us to party i tried moshing knocking into these loser they just stood there getting mad at me. Thatsnwhen i realized luke and i were closer than any of them snd we only become close towards the end. He had more resoect for m3 because i had not filter no bullshit and i never fucking will.
Ill argue Luke Ervin was just as punk. An obscure punk artist who put together venues. Never told us he was dying. Loved all music. ALL MUSIC. He was a true punk. So is lydan. I have the attitude but am more business minded from other exoeriences
Agreed. I keep telling people that what he’s saying now is still punk rock. He hates insane lefties because they are everything he’s always been against. The “punk rock look” has been appropriated by low iq, low information idiots that like cardi b.. punk rock is no longer a look it’s always been the attitude
I love, LOVE McGeoch's work in this song. He was such an excellent, zany and seriously talented guy. Love his work with Siouxsie and just about anything else he did. T
When I first moved to Seattle I started working in a manufacturing shop. Met an older guy that went by Mr. T. He found out I was a record collector as he was and we instantly started trading records. One of the first he gave me was a set of Public Image records with some miles Davis stuff that just got re pressed. Me. T rules and so does PIL and so does Seattle. Sean - 2019
Love this album & feel sorry for kids who don’t get to read the liner notes of the vinyls, cassettes or cd’s. This band was so good, so important then & today!
Saw PiL with New Order in 88 at Poplar Creek amphitheater outside of Chicago. Lots of people in the crowd had NO IDEA who PiL were...boy were they in for a wonderful surprise! They ruled that show, Jonny is the consummate frontman
Saw Johnny front row at the Beacon on the Happy tour. I didn't know what to expect. He blew me away. Incredibly professional and despite the bad cold he said he was suffering from, swigging large bottles of water, sang and performed like it was his best day. Band was tight and in sync. Unforgettable experience and I've seen almost everyone. My date and I could not hear for four hours after the show and just mouthed words to each other.
Saw 'em on that tour too though when did they were opening for someone, can't remember who ... I wanna say it was the Cure or INXS, maybe? Someone like that, I went to EVERYONE back then. I showed up early to check 'em out, for sure. Still have my Happy? copy on vinyl from those days ...
I remember hearing this song on the radio in the 80's and wondering what it was called or who it was by. Started popping into my head again the past couple of months and I finally decided I needed to get online and try to track it down. Love this song.
Also love this...reminds me of the 90's lol! Funny to think that I used to listen to PIL and saw them at the Moore Theatre in Seattle. They only performed half of the show because the drummer got sick. Still have the ticket stub...ahhh,, the 90's.
He's like a breath of fresh air! Nothing bad for an Irish guy born in London at the same day when his immigrant parents came to England. Despite -- and even because? -- the meningitis, the total ammnesya at his 8, the curve on his spine, the lack of musical education... HE IS THE BEST! He's the incarnated intelligence itself... A genuine British poetry, original, provoking, disturbing, punk, modern... A real alchemist, uniting art and reality. The Most Revolutionary Musician Ever.
kevin brown Seattle is a fucking shit hole. Lousy weather- and yes it really does rain all the time- and unfriendly people does not a great city make. I know because I was forced to spend most of my childhood in America's most overrated city.
Whenever I hear this I wonder how many others wandered into the unspoken hell/bizarro world that is Seattle and lived to not only tell this tale, but fully understand this song's true meaning(s) as well. I earned my f-ing "t-shirt"! Did you?
yeah, either that or they'll attempt to destroy it... damnant quod non intelligunt- they condemn what they don't understand. The fact that the phrase has been around long enough to have been used in latin (and very likely long before) says quite a statement about humanity. The fact that humanity is still here says more though.
I love the way Johnny's music and artistry has never stopped transforming and evolving in different directions. Only really getting into it all now through reading ANGER IS AN ENERGY - it's all in there!
I think seattle is a great place place to live because it has an amazing vibe and it has such a extraordinary culture. It is different from other cities and is a beautiful place to live, with a mix of modern contemporary architecture and retro stuff too. Gotta love the rain. Seattle just brings such a good feeling to you and it really makes your day. I wish I could live there but I'm about 20 minutes away.
yeah, often his style could be described as waking up drunk and naked in a thrift-store and grabbing the closest stuff to wear before you get caught, but in a way that makes it look like you at least tried to match something, and it definitely works well.
Lu Edmonds and that saz. It's such a beautiful instrument. I'm familiar with him from The Mekons (remember Lu Cipher?), but I've loved this song since it came out. Imagine my shock when I learned a few years ago that Lu was part of PiL playing on Seattle with a writing cred. "Happy" times.
Kcuf elgoog You could have done anything, if you wanted And all your friends and family think that you're lucky But the side of you they'll never see Is when you're left alone with your memories That hold your life together, like glue
Public Image Limited performed on Thanksgiving Night of 1987. It's still the Best Concert that I've Ever been to! I saw Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd in the 70's in Cincinnati and they were good, but they performed in the Colosseum. Public Image Limited was @ A Nightclub made for Concerts and it was the Best Stage, Lighting and Johnny Lydon danced all over the stage while he was singing! No singer ever moved like he did! I really like the way they made this video too!
i know some pil fans hate the later stuff; "metal box is the only good album they made"... i loved this version of pil as much as the original... john mcgeogh? he was a fucking brilliant & highly underrated guitar player - then & now!...
i'm with you, op. i have adored every pil album since first issue, each bringing its own unique sound to the table. i do think 9 was probably the weakest, but dang, everyone has a misstep every now and then, and that album is far from terrible. mcgeoch, edmonds, smith, all those later guys are badly under appreciated.
He is still fantastic! Seen PIL in concert this last year, and he is just as great as ever!! Love all his songs~Thanks for the posting~Love this video!
The pinnacle of alternative rock. I am 20 and I learned about PIL from a record store employee a year ago and hooked ever since. Seattle is one of the most chill and epic tracks I hear ever heard. Rise leaves me in tears too.
It might make more sense to know that it's only titled Seattle because they happened to be in that City when they wrote it but the whole album is a theme of military versus revolution versus wealth versus struggle etc.
The thing about Johnny is that he is the TRUTH .... A spokesman for everyone who is out there strange dont fit in subcultural and on the fringes of normality he speaks for me as legendary hippie 60s guru Timothy Leary go out and find the "OTHERS" just like you they are out there believe me !!! .... "Seattle" classic 😎✌️👍.
Don't like the look of this old town What goes up must come down Character is lost and found On unfamiliar playing ground Get out of My World What in the world Shoe boxed around the rifle range Have all your functions rearranged Your mind and body gagged and bound On a new familiar playing ground The ordinary will ignore Whatever they cannot explain As if nothing ever happened And everything remained the same again What in the world What in the world What in the world Get out of my world Get out of my world Get out of my world Open your mouth now Secret sirens and knowing looks these sunny days will cook the books Happy to take the misery This mortal life can bring to me Don't like the look of this old town What goes up must come down Character is lost and found On unfamiliar playing ground What in the world What in the world What in the world What in, get out, get out Get out of my world What in the world Palaces, barricades, threats meet promises
@@TeeBeeBad63 I lived in Seattle from 1976 'til 2009, when I expatriated to the Netherlands. Looks like I got out of the Emerald City just in the nick of time!
This video is always recommended. I liked the song, I always listen to this group PIL. I thought that Johhny Rotten quit releasing music before the Sex Pistols broke up, and he's back now. I love Post-Pank🤘🤘🤘❤️❤️❤️
RIP Chris Cornell. This, for me, was the start of the Seattle scene, only because it recognized Seattle in 1987. A few years later, and everybody knew the town.
This song sounds nostalgic to me. So does the song Rise by PiL. I heard this song a couple days ago, but it still sounds nostalgic because my parents and I used to listen to 80-90's music when I was a small child in 2005 or 2007. Weird how i remember that since I was born in 2003, but still. Love this song.
The song is called Seattle because it was written there while on tour. Nothing to do with the city. PiL is an awesome band, Lydon always gets some good musicians.

One of Britain’s great guitarists. And it must be true because Budgie said so.
He was fabulous
One of the best, we surely miss old Mcgeogh a truly inspirational person.
Breaks my heart seeing him here ❤
Can we appreciate that bass line as well from Allen i believe?

Lu Edmonds (Spizz, Mekons), Bruce Smith (The Pop Group, The Slits), John McGeoch (Magazine, Siouxsie and The Banshees).
One of the best bass lines and guitar riffs ever recorded.
Later era PiL is very underrated. Love the guitar parts in this song. Both John McGeogh and Lu Edmonds are genius guitarists.
yes, the same album 9 is simply beautiful and very elaborate, it would be interesting if the producer didn’t screw up with That What is not🤓
I'm here today remembering that guitar work!
Loved it, always.
ONE OF THE BEST MOST ICONIC VOICES OF THE 80S, MY FAVES . . !!

Sugarcubes
I was at that show too, specifically for PiL. We got stuck in traffic and completely missed the Sugarcubes.

He has drunk the Kool Aid and become a trump loving capitalist piggie. He can sing love songs now for King Charles. Over & done!
I never felt more unwelcome in any city as the 9 months I spent in Seatttle. Hummed this song a lot while I was there.
maybe if you could spell Seattle right, we would of welcomed you.

I can't possibly like every one of his videos. I saw him play in a small bar in Buffalo around 1994. He was everything you ever wanted 15 feet away.
Got to see 'em once, in '89. Johnny mooned the crowd. Sonically, one of the greatest shows I've ever seen. Just the power...
He is still fantastic! Seen PIL in concert this last year, and he is just as great as ever!! Love all his songs~Thanks for the posting~Love this video!

Damn. There's still record stores where you are? There's none here anymore.
lol
20 and you think you know the pinnacle of anything? So very 20 of you.
This video on 120 minutes in the 80's got me into these guys at around 12-13 yrs old and of course the Pistols. Still love both bands!!!
120 minutes. Back when MTV cared about music. I think I could watch anything from MTV back then, whether it was Headbangers Ball or Yo! MTV Raps
From 2:33 to 3:00 you can witness the best line-up PiL has ever had....
I just wish they could once be back together
We had great days pogoing to Punk Music. I'm too old to do it now. But, I wish them days could come back.
Saw PIL at Red Rocks in Summer of 89, they were part of a show with I think Love and Rockets and the Cure? Good show
It might make more sense to know that it's only titled Seattle because they happened to be in that City when they wrote it but the whole album is a theme of military versus revolution versus wealth versus struggle etc.

What goes up must come down
Character is lost and found
On unfamiliar playing ground
Get out of My World
What in the world
Shoe boxed around the rifle range
Have all your functions rearranged
Your mind and body gagged and bound
On a new familiar playing ground
The ordinary will ignore
Whatever they cannot explain
As if nothing ever happened
And everything remained the same again
What in the world
What in the world
What in the world
Get out of my world
Get out of my world
Get out of my world
Open your mouth now
Secret sirens and knowing looks
these sunny days will cook the books
Happy to take the misery
This mortal life can bring to me
Don't like the look of this old town
What goes up must come down
Character is lost and found
On unfamiliar playing ground
What in the world
What in the world
What in the world
What in, get out, get out
Get out of my world
What in the world
Palaces, barricades, threats meet promises
Secrets signs and knowing looks, more like.
Seattle is really dying now. Very sad, it used to be so safe and absolutely beautiful!
@@TeeBeeBad63 I lived in Seattle from 1976 'til 2009, when I expatriated to the Netherlands.
Looks like I got out of the Emerald City just in the nick of time!
I remember c87 Star Hits feature showing the coda as Palaces, Barricades, Threats, KEEP Promises
This is the ultimate song about my job
If I could see j.r. and pil once more in concert, I could die and go to heaven the next day. Amazing in concert.
The thing about PIL is every phase of members has value. The point is laughing in the face of establishment and remaining positive.
Seattle is a great song! John Lydon was a master, a great man! Lyrics great,
What a great band!
This video is always recommended. I liked the song, I always listen to this group PIL. I thought that Johhny Rotten quit releasing music before the Sex Pistols broke up, and he's back now. I love Post-Pank🤘🤘🤘❤️❤️❤️
RIP Chris Cornell. This, for me, was the start of the Seattle scene, only because it recognized Seattle in 1987. A few years later, and everybody knew the town.
Who?
Necros Dragosani2 : )
The singer of Soundgarden.
The Seattle scene started with Heart in the late 70s....

This song sounds nostalgic to me. So does the song Rise by PiL. I heard this song a couple days ago, but it still sounds nostalgic because my parents and I used to listen to 80-90's music when I was a small child in 2005 or 2007. Weird how i remember that since I was born in 2003, but still. Love this song.
LOVE THIS SONG!!!
been looking for this song for literally years! thk u WOW
Happy Birthday John Lyndon.
I absolutely love this song
the band came up with the idea for this song while on a break on tour in seattle
This is my favorite PiL song, period. The stars aligned for this one.
The song is called Seattle because it was written there while on tour. Nothing to do with the city. PiL is an awesome band, Lydon always gets some good musicians.
Eric W its about Margaret thatcher
It’s called Seattle because the band recorded the music without John. He was stuck in NYC with tinnitus
they are shit
@@zoommr1266 you forgot to say DURRRRR
Saw this specific bunch in NYC back in the day, rotten is a great entertainer and this concert was great.
this must be the john hughes version of johnny rotten
No, then the song'd be called "Chicago".
Johnny was home alone
I think it's the Ron Howard Version of him
you do not know Johnny
Haha, I was gonna say it looks like he raided Ducky’s closet before the video.
THIS TUNE AS FAR AS I AM THINKING IS ONE THE BEST EVER, EVER, AS FAR AS I THINK.
