Okay doke, here's the dirty version promised in the Jihad thread. Merc sez dirty is okay.
But you'll see what I mean by dirty below. Not the lyrics, just the quality.
It has the force that I remember though (then again I know the words!)

From Bolton.

Lyrics
Quote:
Nothin' for us in Belfast
The Pound so old it's a pity
OK, there's the Trident in Bangor
Then walk back to the city
We ain't got nothin' but they don't really care
They don't even know you know
Just want our money
And we can take it or leave it
What we need is

(Chorus)
An Alternative Ulster
Grab it change it it's yours
Get an Alternative Ulster
Ignore the bores and their laws
Get an Alternative Ulster
Be an anti-security force
Alter your native Ulster
Alter your native land

Take a look where you're livin'
You got the Army on your street
And the RUC dog of repression
Is barking at your feet
Is this the kind of place you wanna live?
Is this were you wanna be?
Is this the only life we're gonna have?
What we need is

(Chorus)

They say they're a part of you
But that's not true you know
They say they've got control of you
And that's a lie you know
They say you will never be

Free free free

Get an Alternative Ulster
Get an Alternative Ulster
Get an Alternative Ulster
As previously, it's not an anti-British song. It's just about disaffected youth and in this case they happen to live in a warzone. I wish I could find a better live version. If anyone is interested please do.

Again, this has been on my mind very much this last week.

huh. "Evolution of Dance" -- an apparently famous YouTube clip which I have never heard of. unsurprising, really, but they mentioned it on NCIS, so I had to Google it.

Clever and hysterical!

Awwwww, just found some Glastonbury clips of Crowded House.
I'd rather watch them, pitch perfect real musicians, than any spectacular all dancing big production big budget show.

The wonderful thing is, whether you see them at Glastonbury, the Royal Albert Hall, the Indigo2 or down your local pub, they could never be any the less for it. Okay, will stop the fangurl stuff now.
