I was 17 years old in Hollywood with my best friend and family and we were shopping for my 18 hole Docs (Dr Martin’s) and they were shooting this video and they asked if we wanted to be in it. I was so excited to be in this video and meet the band. They were totally cool. It was an awesome day for me. My first pair of 18 hole Docs and get to meet the band And be in a video. Still a great song 29 years later!!
Mick did the same with The Clash and Carbon/Silicon. The Clash's intro to Guns on the Roof is pretty much the same as Clash City Rockers which was inspired by The Who's I Can't Explain. Years later on Carbon/Silicon's What the Fuck!, Mick again uses the Clash City Rockers intro
He is sampling himself, so it's a win either way. Mick Jones was one of the first rock musicians to see the value in sampling and do it creatively. He was at ground zero for 2 music revolutions, his originally has never been in doubt.
Thank you! I was just going to post that I read he sampled all night long as well but I couldn’t hear it…. He sampled some crazy stuff…didn’t he sample the drums for sweet pea by Tommy Roe in Rush?
Man, my parents played the hell out of this when I was a kid. Neither of them remember this! Well I sure as hell do. Thanks to The Clash for reminding me of those good 90's years before everything went to hell. Time to make more good times for the kids of today.

When I was a little girl I would put on the whole album that this song came from early in the morning as I was getting ready for school. I am now a 40 year old woman and I still like to play this music but now it's dancing music for my little children ✌️💙😊. Love this song!
I always thought he said “switch off the stove” because you know if you are going out for the nite and u leave the stove on you can have a really bad fire
You see all those kids at 0:43 wearing identical white tees with black and red lines? We were walking in our annual "March for Hunger", a 26 mile walk from Skid Row to Santa Monica to raise money to feed the homeless. It was just a coincidence we were there - and we got to be in a music video. How LA is that?
These comments have my heart very happy. It's amazing to see all you 90s and 00s babies remembering BAD with fondness. My daughter approached me a few years ago because she was making a playlist to listen to while doing field research. She had most of the other bands she grew up with, but she couldn't remember the title of the "choo! Bless you" song. I'm fairly certain she added most of the Down At The Globe album to her list. It's interesting to hear about what our babies remember and what things remind them of their old Mommy.
Music is not far from what smell, and taste; and their being able to lift a long forgotten memory. And allow us to remember a better time had And in that, we can give a reprieve from the here and now Thanks Mick 👍👍
And of all my friends You've been the best to me Soon will be the day When I repay you handsomely Broken hearts are hard to mend I know, I've had my share But life just carries on Even when I'm not there Situation no win Rush for a change of atmosphere I can't go on, so I give in Gotta get myself right outta here Situation no win Rush for a change of atmosphere I can't go on so I give in Gotta get myself right outta here
Didn't know of BAD until the early 90's and was BLOWN AWAY! I'm from Chicago, Illinois. A friend brought the cd for the road trip we went on tripping on cid and boy that was a memorable day, Lmao! We must have played that album a boatload of times, BAD is definitely underated. I was organizing my pad and came across the cd box minus the cd, hopefully it's around somewhere. Either way we have UA-cam, YEYYYYY!!! Cranking BAD super loud cruising in the classic car I had at the time was mega epic!!! I had a 1971 Chevy Caprice with a stereo system / speakers to rival as if you were at the concert. Great times and beautiful memories. "Esta. Loca" epic line from a Chicago House music jam Classic, I was blown away they used it. Mega Dope!
Still one of my favorite bands! Formed by ex-guitarist and singer of The Clash, Mick Jones back in 1984. They were one of the first to do sampling and I think they did it more creatively than most even to this day. So many great songs and lots of great sampling!
My little sister thought AC/DC 'Rock & Roll Ain't Noise Pollution' said, 'Rock & Roll Ain't Just For Losers' and I thought 'When You're In Love With a Beautiful Woman,' said, 'When You're In Love with a Beautiful Worm Bug,' so we all have our childhood embarrassments
I grew up listening to Big audio dynamite and this song is still worth jammin to The Globe is a cracking record. Highly under rated. Should i stay or should i globe ? I love that he sampled himself.
2020 ~ I don't know what shuffled my brain cells but this goodie popped up and I haven't heard it in ... decades? Ouch. I'm so glad UA-cam has all my memories for times like this.
Had not given thought 'One' to this awesome song since about 6 months after its release. Until it played a month ago on KXT Dallas/Fort Worth. Absolutely stuck in my head now. It's the perfect tempo for my typical walk speed. Striding up and down the halls in my office singing "Where are you going, my beautiful friend? Hewee Hewee Hewee... Go!' In my head, of course.
I grew up listening to Big audio dynamite and this song is still worth jammin to "Heewee heewee heewee heewee... go." To this day, one of the best albums I ever owned.
Many years ago Big Audio Dynamite was opening for U2 at the zoo TV tour and I had front row seats and the girl that I took with me thought I knew nothing about music so she started asking me all these questions and I was able to answer everything and then I asked her do you know what band Mick Jones was in before Big Audio Dynamite never heard of class she never heard of them I was laughing the whole night and needless to say that was our last date
I have no idea why this band never won a award they were the first band ever to switch to rap/rock and add samples there would not be a Beastie Boys Limp Biscuit or any other rap/rock bands.
it's weird, they're other albums were just hit and miss.. but this one was beautifully mixed and flowed perfectly together. I remember when I bought this, I was just 19 years old! sigh! 80s and early 90s were superb for music..
In 1979, Mick Jonas and Joe Strummer lived in this small country in Central America, called Costa Rica. And, for me that these two great guys co-wrote the song London Calling, it was an honor and privilege to put Costa Rica on the world stage. I would be born until 1983, and I would know Big Audio Dynamite, until 1999. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇨🇷💙🤍❤🤍💙 .
Tuve el placer de ganarme el CD de Big Audio Dynamite en la desaparecida radio Gabriela FM 98.1 de Concepción-Chile a mis 19 años en 1991, en ese tiempo no tenia como reproducirlo y tuve que venderlo a la discotheque "Casanovas" de Yumbel.
I've been searching for this song for ages, I had it on a mix cd my dad made me when I was like 10 and I always Thought it was the weirdest fucking song
To those of you who were saying that BAD aren't good live, I have a double CD version of The Globe which comes with a CD called Alley Pally Paradisa, the live "official bootleg", I've not heard the whole thing in full, but actually they're pretty good live, there's a great version of Rush on the live CD, but it's known as Situation No Win on the live album, I suspect the concert was performed before The Globe studio album was released. I don't know how easy it is to get the live "Official Bootleg" these days.
Mick Jones. The only man on the planet who can take 2 guitar chords, make a song, and 30 years later, you're STILL not sick of it.
The Beatles and Prince already did it.
no joke, aye? i had been trying to think of their name for about a year now, lol. well worth the wait. freakin awesome music!
S Kim DO NOT DARE DIMINISH JOE'S riffs. Two cords?!?
*take 2 chords and make 3 songs

That is a truly awesome and essential early 90s high school fantasy story come true. The Docs, the band, the video and the holes.
Best. Comment. Ever.
you rock. i was thinking, i would've KILLED to be at this shoot! and you scored it!
That's pretty cool. Thank you for sharing
Those suckers are expensive. But they last…(the boots)
I don't always listen to Big Audio Dynamite, but when I do, SO DO THE NEIGHBORS!

Mick Jones sampling Mick Jones = Total mindblow!

We need to go deeper...
IT SOUNDS LIKE THE CLASH: SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO 😏, YOU GOTTA LOVE MICK JONES, HOPE JOE STRUMMER IS HAPPY FOR HIS BANDMATES , GOD BLESS HIM 💒💐
Yeah...that was the coolest "self shoutout" ever.
Oh blessed you..
Mick reinvents himself again, and to great effect, in a danceable fusing of musical styles. Fresh!
He is sampling himself, so it's a win either way. Mick Jones was one of the first rock musicians to see the value in sampling and do it creatively. He was at ground zero for 2 music revolutions, his originally has never been in doubt.
He also sampled the drum intro of "All Night Long" by Lionel Richie on the extended version.
WOW ten years ago. Mick wasn't sampling, his cousin Andre Shapps produced BAD's music with Mick.
@@befdoglover1 Andre Shapps sampled it.
Cease and Desist, Ginger Porn
Thank you! I was just going to post that I read he sampled all night long as well but I couldn’t hear it….
He sampled some crazy stuff…didn’t he sample the drums for sweet pea by Tommy Roe in Rush?
Mick Jones represents everything good about the spirit of music and human nature
Strappa. That is the perfect statement!.
I am 45 and just missed this band. These guys are truly awesome and extremely unique. I have never heard anything this unique.
We're you asleep during the 90s...?
Hugely influential. Stone roses and Happy Mondays, Jesus Jones, EMF, Pop will eat itself, all owe a lot to BAD
The Globe is a cracking record. Highly under rated.

My beautiful friend
Is this the road that
We take til the end
And if we break down
Are we left behind
Is this the highway
Of all mankind
Axis spins so round and round we go
Where we're goin no one really knows
Here we here we here we here we go
Feel the fire way down below
Come on and dim the lights

Switch on the strobe
(Do what you like)
We gonna have a ball tonight
(Let's have a ball)
Down at the Globe
Come on dim the lights
(Here we here we here we go again)
Switch on the strobe
(Lookin right?)
Gonna have a ball tonight
(All I see is?)
Down at the Globe
Get up and clean your teeth and have a shave
It's 1am let's go out to a rave
One more in before we hit that grave
It's hotter than a microwave wave
Come on and dim the lights
(It's party time)
Switch on the strobe
(Do what you like)
We gonna have a ball tonight
(Let's have a ball)
Down at the Globe
Where is the failure
Not in this land
But still you try to
Get what you can
You know that it's bad but
If you insist
Here's one more chance now
That you just missed
Come on and dim the lights

My Dad bought me a Discman in 1992 when I was 10, along with this CD. Still one of the best.

I thought of this song while having an allergy induced sneeze attack this lovely Friday morning. Thank you for the music ❤
Every time someone sneezes 2:31
I always thought he said “switch off the stove” because you know if you are going out for the nite and u leave the stove on you can have a really bad fire
Where's the lie tho?
man, I remember turning my whole dorm onto BAD... most underated and misunderstood band of the 80's.... I WANNA GO BAAACK
"It's part time!"
I grew up listening to Big audio dynamite and this song is still worth jammin to
The Globe is a cracking record. Highly under rated.
only the band The Clash could have become!
Crackalackin'
Big Audio Dynamite in general is underrated
That album is an all time classic IMHO.
um no big audio dynamite should have stopped making music after they made their last classic e=mc2

when i was 4 years old or so, i requested this album on cassette for my birthday. now im 30 but its still rocking me..its hotter than a microwave
4 years old?
I call B.S. on a 4 year old requesting this, and on a cassette no less.

Lame.
OMG! I remember when cruising Melrose Ave. in Hollywood back in the 80's. Those were the best days. Now too many people get robbed. SO! SAD.
First time I heard this was in July 1991 at La Locomotive nightclub in Paris. Brings back some great memories...
The Globe is a cracking record. Highly under rated.

A freshman in high school when this was popular.. good times 😊🎉🎉
Mick Jones and his Bond Electraglide guitar have been together since 1985.
BEST SONG EVER!!!!!
I have been searching for this version FOR YEARS!! Thank you!!
Drop that globe! Nooice! 😎 STOC
Mick Jones!👌👍❤ Just a perfectly made tune!
Do what ya like. In this world 🌎 you can do what you want
It's a great band that was under rated BAD...

Loved growing up to you guys. You were sung and played more than you'll ever know. Excellent Album. Much Love💋. A Jersey American Girl❤️.

1994 college Pittsburgh PA.. Thnx for the great tunes!!! Memories r unexplainable ❣❣
And of all my friends
You've been the best to me
Soon will be the day
When I repay you handsomely
Broken hearts are hard to mend
I know, I've had my share
But life just carries on
Even when I'm not there
Situation no win
Rush for a change of atmosphere
I can't go on, so I give in
Gotta get myself right outta here

at 0:27, that little rift just makes me dance when it kicks
When I first heard this song, I was heavy into comic book collecting. I always associate alternative/modern rock with comics.
BAD means a kick ass time, yo!
Grew up listening to this song as my dad loved this band. Such nostalgia for me! GONNA HAVE A BALL TONIGHT! DOWN AT THE GLOBE!
Been on my Playlist for years. I listen while cutting lawn on a big diesel tractor and this song always makes me smile. "Its party time!"
Cannot believe so many have forgotten big audio dynamite🎶💜🎶💜🎶💜🎶💜🎶💜🎶💜
