Knees no good anymore.

This and tell me what are just absolute classics for. Me personally.
I‘m 16 years old. One thing I love about phones and the internet is that I can find such songs. I‘d probably never ever have heard such bangers.
Love you all
Stay Kewl kid!! Lotsa great 'old' stuff out there. 👍🏼
Glad to hear some folks of your generation are curious for music of the past. The 80's were great, so many different styles and genres to choose from. Enjoy your musical journey!
😊
Cool !
Back on 1988..Roland would go into the Kingston Pub in Hull on a Sunday night. I was in there with three friends on Sundays...Roland was so unassuming ...A great bloke...
Such a great band from a era of music that will never be forgotten.
The best era..no doubts.Todays music isnt nowhere near the mark.

@@redkop510of course it is.
Música impresionante, letra, cantantes, cantantes, vídeo.. esos si es un cantar ❤
2024. Anyone?😊
Loving it ❤
This should be Joe Biden's walk out song .
Too right 😊
@@Trackratz-zl9di 😄 🤣
2024, still here
Worked at a newspaper and received a press kit with this gem in it. I kept the cassette and wrote an incredible review that my employer didn't publish. He didn't like the music but I knew it was gold after the first few seconds of this song. FYC is pure dope. Always was and forever will be. Y'all just ain't catch up yet.💪😷💯🔥🔥🔥
And that James Brown sample tho😯!!!
Not only that they evolved from the English Beat
Share your Review friend👍🏽
Summed Up Beautifully! 💯 🔥🤟🤟
Thumbs up to your instinct. Right place, right time as they say. Awesome song - on my top 5.
I'm 54 years old black South African but the song still send shivers in my mind every time I play it, I salute them
As a little white girl in the '80s it did the same to me
Salute 🇿🇦
Me too,Bro!! I am from Russia! And I love it!!! I am 42)
Same here , from Wales 🙏🏻
Is there any need to say, I mean, is it at relevant what color your skin is? "Still sends shivers in my mind" is suffice.
Forgotten how good this song was... how can a song by funky and sad at the same time?!
I felt the same way today when I heard the song again after a long time. Wonderful.
EMOTION AND THE TRUTH
It's that James Brown Funky Drummer sample. Always brings the funk
Joy, and gets you moving, but while being melancholy.
Hard to believe, but this song was recorded in 1988... For me it's maybe their best and it most certainly is one of the best songs of the decade.
I've always thought this was their best song tbh
even before 1988
I can hear how dance songs in the 90’s might have been influenced by this.
Totally in agreement my good man 100% have a good weekend buddy
A masterpiece that can make grown man weep
yeah
thanks 4🙏 responding
I'm 61 and this takes me back
@@martingilmour5768back to where?
The funky drummer, the keys, the riff, the voice, the memories of those times.... Goosebumps.
A solute to James Brown.
Una joya, un verdadero cantante, la música.. un deleite
Still LOVE it after all these years--- I'm 63 and not the man I used Ito be but my heart still floats everytime I hear this...
Same here and know the feeling
Get a 30 something year old girlfriend and you'll be the man you used to be. It really works. ;D
Just listened to it on the way home tonight. I know the feeling.
Me 61 , the same
thank you
I'm sure every man can relate to this song at some point throughout their lives. Simply brilliant Roland and the FYC
I'm one of them.
@@davidgardner1067 good timing, it’s not always easy being a man. I’m not one to jump on the mental health wagon. We all have our problems in life, just amazing how sometimes people think oh you look to have everything you must be happy.
THANK YOU MR LONSDALE
One of my favorite Pop Songs
EVEN A WOMAN COUNTS IN THIS MEGA HIT
Where are you? We miss you!!! ❤️ Your voice, the rhythm, the style! Come back in. 2021!!!😘
quite possibly one of the best pieces of music ever created.
Huhhhh it is hot...the..
Sun comes.☀️
I agree with you... Such a thought provoking song
Keef Morgan 👍👍
Keef Morganmakes you reflect, good thing
Most definitely!! This song is one of my all time favorites, and that's coming from a guy who doesn't do favorites ;) the thing I like the most about it is the melancholy it gives(?) me - kinda weird that I crave that feeling sometimes - sweet/sorrow? Idk...
this song is pure 100% CLASS
💯% agree
Four words describe this song imho: An absolute haunting masterpiece
Breaks my heart he is not recognised as the most magnificent singer of the 80’s and 90’s and till today is relevant
I'm listening in 2023. Is that okay?
Vibe is timeless
June 2024
this song is a masterpiece
Lyrics
When I'm in trouble, or out of step
If my balance has been upset
Oh, there's a feeling I can't accept
There's one thing that helps me to forget
Wonder what I'm thinking
Wonder why I'm drinking
But it's plain to see
I'm not the man I used to be
If life were easy and didn't ask
Didn't tease me or take things back
I could start to understand
What makes me the man I am
Wonder what I'm thinking
Wonder why I'm drinking
But it's plain to see
I'm not the man I used to be
Oh, it's plain and it's a shame
I'm not the man I used to be
I've lost dreams that won't come back
Memories fading fast
I should save the ones I have
What's the use? Most of them are bad
Wonder what I'm thinking
Wonder why I'm drinking
But it's plain to see
I'm not the man I used to be
Oh, it's plain and it's a shame
I can't explain
But I'm not the man I used to be
It's a shame, don't know my name
I can't explain
I'm not the man I used to be
Do you know my name?
Do you, do you need a place?
But I'm not the man
Nice one 👍🏻
♥️
Подарок!
Love the lyrics 💖
One of the most brutally honest songs ever written. Having a moment of clarity and facing one's addictions can be terrifying but neccessary to keep on going and this song captured that feeling perfectly. It slil gives me chills.
A song cannot make you happy and sorrowful at the same time
The song:
I'm definitely not the man I used to be but I'm proud of the man I have become because my father taught me to be the man I should be and for that I will be eternally grateful RIP mi papa
His voice is so soothing and mesmerizing. One of my fav bands. I’m love the 80’s British pop bands.
So True
Sweet Song......this Band deserved BETTER recognition
A timeless classic! One of the best.
Everyone knows She Drives Me Crazy, but this is the real deal.
Yeah, this song was awesome....
👍👍🔥
I would love to go through your iPod (music list), because...... you get it! ;-)
"The Flame" was also special.
My next favorite from FYC
As hard as it is.
Perhaps the most timeless and emotional song by FYC. An honest-to-goodness classic with a soulful mix of 80s flow, intermittent horns, and old time blues. ✌️❤️🔮
Beautiful melody on the funky drummer loop
Only recently discovering the fact that this drum beat was "sampled" from the James Brown hit, "Funky Drummer". THAT explains the magic of it all? Love this song even more now.....
I'm still listening in 2024 ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Me too Sharon 🎉
Absolute killer bassline + breakbeats!! 🔊⚡⚡
Awesome timeless classic album! 💗💿
Roland Gift's vocals, 💯 flawless! 💖🔥
Haunting song...love it...inspires me to face turning 50 years old in 2021 with mixture of emotions...
Irwin Wesley I am looking at 62, it goes too fast. Be well. 😊🇨🇦
@@ashleighjaimaosborne3966 this is why I am gonna travel after this pandemic. Saving money. I live in Toronto Canada.
Same as me..
This is utterly peerless, from start to finish. Their finest work, ridiculously classy song
This song has been a theme for my entire life. At 56 I finally understand.
I truly am not the man I used to be.
I know what you mean mate. You are not alone. Greetings from Glasgow Roy
Thanks for that.I used to deliver BMW. Parts all over the uk. In 97 I made my last delivery of a long day in Glasgow.
The guy said you wanna come in for a sandwich and a cup of tea.mines from home. The prospect of a boring hotel room.
Hell yes .
Respect to Glaswegian folk for that day.
My house is your house…roy in Vancouver
Miles …..miles from home
GREAT HMMMM
The memories fading fast, but thanks to UA-cam the tunes come back.
Deeply resonates...too many questions unanswered, doubts, fears, hope, feeling alive one moment dead the next..the pendulum swings...dope track
Everyone knows She Drives Me Crazy, but this is the real deal.
What a song! Like no longer made! Thanks FYC
A fine song from a fine bunch of young cannibals. A great band.
This song for me helps me when I feel sad makes me smile when I’m happy. Just unique.
Your not alone mate.
Growing up as a kid my mom played this album non stop. It is burned in my brain and I love it. I’m 35 and couldn’t think of a birthday gift until I realized a vinyl of this is perfect as they just got the record player set up at there house
It's June 2024 and this song draws me in time and time again...Makes me Happy and Sad, but it reminds me of what an absolute Timeless track it is..At some point we have all felt like this...Keep liking and Keep sharing and I will never stop listening...
One of the best songs ever...Phenomenal voice color, amazing lyrics...Unforgettable...Should have been a much bigger hit!!!!!
I have loved this band since 1985 and I still do. Many greetings from Finland. Thank you so much for everything 😃
One of my favorite uses of the funky drummer sample!
Proper music nothin like it better than todays rubish.
Love it..Part of my teens..Just passed my test and had it on cassette from Woolworths!!
My fav song from the fyc. Remember this from the old days
I love this tune! My fave too :) Plus it didn't hurt that Roalnd Gift is beautiful HA
Heard it on a frank mcavennie documentary hadn't heard it in ages!
Another Masterpiece of music!
OUTSTANDING. No further words required.
There is no better song. There are songs that are equally as good, but this is perfect.
I don't know how I feel about the grammar of that sentence.
Unfinished Sympathy by Massive Attack is the song that comes along as well.....
Music till the mid 90s had something that today's mainstream music lacks (on purpose ?). Emotion.
Born in the 80’s, the older I get the more I keep coming back to music like this. These guys most definitely put their stamp on the British 80’s music scene. Some great memories come back when I hear their music
Brilliant give me more of this brilliant band wish roland and his 2 boys all the best going forward God bless 🙏🏴
This track STILL speaks out and reaches into you
Truly a masterpiece 💯🎧🔁🎶🎵
Just heard this in a bar in Madrid. One of THE great tracks of the 80s
This bands music brings back so many memories . Only now do i realise the true value of their music
...trotz Corona und Weltgeschehen bin ich mit diesem Titel ganz kurz weit weg, Entspannung pur, toll...
Ich wünsche ALLEN Hörern eine gute Zeit......
Fantastic break beat.......Anthem
This is when music 🎶, used to be music 🎶
What a song! Like no longer made! Thanks FYC
My father loved this song back in 89. I never understood it but now I do. I feel I can relate after all these years
Takes me back to fearless youth...living in NYC, listening to FYC and clubbing my ass off until 4 am
Great memories. You're sure not the man you used to be mate 😢😢
@@andymcghee1656 He's the woman now.
NY 1984
NYC '84 - '94 dated and got married to my now ex while playing this song many times... those were the days. :( :)
Yeah!!!!!!!
English bands & English music Rules the world ❤🏴
Super song brings back memories brilliant band all their songs really really good!
I hear it hun, loud and clear. Such a powerful track and beautifully positive
Always loved the oldschool NYC vibe of this vid. Shots of the streets and House dancers doing their thing in an old warehouse. It's a time capsule of a world that no longer exists
I like how the fineYoung cannibals capture a moment in time perhaps that will never come back the 80s or the 90s
Holy @@@@ , How did i ever miss this absolute classic , for real , just heaven to my ears 🎺🎼
Such a master piece... still gets air time in my car.. one of my favorite songs ever.
I miss the 90's, warm summers listening to good music with good friends, treasure memories when world seemed less complicated. Great song from great Album.
I bought this album on cassette at the ferry terminal France school trip aged 13/14 I’m 45 now and it’s still sounds good as when I first heard it
I heard this song a month ago for the first time in a while and can’t get it out of my head. It goes without saying thatP Diddy dancing in the video takes it to another level....
So under appreciated as a band,great voice tight musicianship just class
I was listening to this song driving to work in 1990, I had a horrible accident at that jobsite that same day at 27 yrs old. How ironic. This song still kills me at 60yrs old I'm definitely not the man I used to be! Busted up physically, but still crankin' .
Roland Gifts voice is amazing, what a singer n a great beat, more a Break beat, tremendous band n wonderful song!
Who else is listening in lockdown 2020?
Lockdown 2021 now :)
SOOOOOOO UNDERRATED!!
By who? you? You either like it or you don't. Nothing is underrated except to those who fail to see.
Amazing song 🎵 80's were awesome 😊
This group had a Gift.
Great song, fantastic beat, great singing. Still love and dance to this at 67 years old as listening gives me back the years!
steve tutty ....🧍♂⛹keep on DANCING🧚♂🦸♀
Ah, yes breakdancing in a contemplative and wistful manner :)
Words with a truth. Am 60 my knees are gone with northernsoul dancing. Back has gone with bodybuilding. Brain has died since covid19. Our freedom. Well changed days on there way. Love this tune thou
Sorry for your situation.
@@supremeobliterator on wards and up wards. Thanks.
Das beste was ich in den 80Jahre gehört habe. Alles andere kannst in die Tone hauen. Grüße gehen raus 😉
I'm 24 and I cry listening to this song
Such a amazing song.
Wonderful classic and love that backbeat....Great, atmospheric video. Ageless! This is what music is all about.
such a great timeless song. Roland Gift delivers it perfectly
FYC ,thanks for one of the best pieces of music ever created.
A truly fantastic song - especially when you feel it as a man....
This song helped me become the man I was supposed to be. I was 19 at the time. Thank you FYC.
Your 19 bud still way to young to even know who you are at that age you think you do but with many more years to come you will know what I mean by this. am 30 and still trying to figure it out
It's ok. red
I heard this in my local Morrison supermarket it just brought back memories. Beautiful song
this tune and johnny come home are their best I reckon, superb songs, proper talent, many thanks
Roland got a gifted voice ^^
Classic!!!!
Fantastic song
Classic 2024 ❤
