You’ll Lose A Good Thing
Suggs: A beautiful Barbara Lynn track, which I only knew from an extremely battered reggae 45 by a girl known only as Audrey, on the Down Town label. In fact it was in such bad condition that bits were inaudible and we had to interpret an ...
La Luna
Chris: 'La Luna' was the only song I wrote on the album. We'd been playing it live before we recorded it, and [bassist) Graham Bush and Woody had this bit that was quite heavy, and I didn't like it. And we recorded the version on the album, and ...
(You) Cant Keep A Good Thing Down
Chris: I've got so many songs that I've written with Lee that have never seen the light of day, and I didn't want these to get lost. In the end, a lot of mine and Thommo's songs ended up on the 'box set' version of the album. So what happened ...

Not Home Today
Written by Suggs and Bedders the song 'Not Home Today' has a reggae influence and is about how people make excuses to hide the fact that a family member has been sent to borstal or prison. This theme of a life of crime is also present in ...
So Much Trouble In The World
Cathal: Since the world began and the first stone was thrown, when violence was born and fashioned daggers from bone, nothing much has changed... protect the weak, don't hang with the freak, keep a smile on your cheek, find the peace that you ...
Stepping Into Line
"Stepping Into Line" is another tune from Mr Hasler's pen. "John wrote the first half of the words, and I wrote the other half," says Suggs. Chris describes it as "my moment of glory, trying to keep it all together!" Well, it does race away ...
Blue Skinned Beast
Vietnam
One Step Beyond…
How different it might have been, though. In the early days, the band played "One Step Beyond" simply as a short instrumental introduction to the main set. Some nights, they played the theme from "Hawaii 5'0". Some nights, they played the ...
