This song became my private anthem long ago. When I was adolescent it gave me a kick of very strong inner political awarness. In addition to the perfect tune. In the eighties of the 20th century it was impossible to hear that kind of music in my country. The iron curtain was working in Poland. Only one radio presenter once a month gave us the chance to listen to ska, reggae and earlier, punk music which he brought form the UK. The Specials have been a living legend. And here`s to You, the Specials!

Originally on release the BBC banned this record, let's not upset Israel. And yet here we are...

Are you listening Israel? Probably not.

This was a song condemning the Israeli invasion of Lebanon and the massacres at Sabra and Chatila. I can't imagine any other band past or present making such a political statement. Just one of the many reasons why the Specials were such a unique, important and treasured band

katoness

the music is spot on but the harmonies are off. I'm sure this is intentional, does it work?? not sure, a few more listens maybe.

The Special AKA were so under rated.

Evening music... Al old one, but sadly still much a song of today...

looking at some previous posts on this, it's should be noted this is Special A.K.A, NOT The Specials. Two fairly different sounds and times in music. Those that don't like this because it's not Do the dog or Nite Klub should keep this in mind.

The numbers are different, the crime is still the same.

@SirBanuTheFourth I actually prefer the instrumental version of this song, because the music is amazing. Not real sold on the vocals here.
