I love that the bass isn't "mixed" out of existence with this band. It's prominent in the mix and I love it.

One of the greatest live bands i’ve ever seen.

First time I saw this was on SNL and completely blew my sh*t away. That was over 30 years ago and I still get chills where I hear this.

This band was a huge huge HUGE influence on me, as a young black kid who loved hard rock, this was the first band that rocked out good where the members looked like me. back then the only black people you saw in rock music was the occasional drummer or bassist with a white singer and guitarist up front getting all the love.

Dude, this is my first time ever hearing Fishbone. They're SUPER dope! They'e like if Earth, Wind, and Fire were a metal band.

How a band that has influenced so many other bands that are now in the hall of fame and they’re not in is a fucking disgrace. I absolutely love these guys and they are one of the most underrated, genre busting, talented, influential bands of all time! Fucking phenomenal!

still gives me goosebumps after all these years... Those harmonies, Norwood's bass playing, Angelo's singing, the heaviness of the guitars, it all blends so niceely and still sounds so fresh today

I'm a 39 year old black man that have never heard of this band. Bored at home last week I watched a documentary about the band and was blew away at how long they have been around. I really like this song and now somewhat a fan of their music.

if ever there was a band that should've made a zillion dollars and been huge.

Growing up in the 80’s. This is an anthem. Lyrics are genius. Sadly “Until the truth is seen by each and every eye”. We may never see

I still remember them playing this on Saturday Night Live.

This is my favorite song by Fishbone! They'll continue to be a phenomenal band to 2024, 2025 and beyond.

Q: Is Fishbone, Funk, Punk, Ska, Reggae, Prog, Metal? A: Yes!

When I was a kid after the fall of the iron curtain one of my positive first impressions about The West of the west was Fishbones videos on MTV. I didn't understand the lyrics just loved the vibe of the music. I still really like them.

The whole album is killer but this is absolutely timeless.

To all the black people that got teased by our own people for liking OUR OWN music...This is for us!

I remember seeing this Video on MTV 120 minutes when The Reality Of My Surroundings first came out. I have been a HUGE Fishbone fan ever since

I just saw them play in Santa Cruz w/ Les Claypool and the Frog Brigade. They still have all the urgency and energy that they’ve always had! Angelo Moore was handing out setlists and I finally got to geek out on playing Theremin, showed him my Theremin/pedalboard and it turns out we both played the Moog Etherwave Plus Theremin. So much positivity and sincerity from him. 😊

Easily one of the greatest songs of its generation. It never gets old.

Too much. 30 years and they sound as fresh as ever. Gems among the plastic.

love this song. Fishbone is insanely underrated.

Smoked pot with these guys after their show in Baltimore in the 1990's. Really cool guys.

This song from the reality of my surroundings album is awesome. I have to say it’s a shame that Fishbone never really got the attention they deserve from the masses. My favorite album from Fishbone is Truth and Soul is an extraordinary piece of work I can’t think of anything like it an absolute classic in my opinion.

"Until the truth is seen by each and every eye."

one of the best performances... can never get tired of this. Fishbone rocks!

This album was one of those "headphone albums" for me. Plug in, tune everything else out and let this one soak in. Man, they were at the peak of their powers here! Such a great point in time for music. Living Colour, 24-7 Spyz, Follow for Now and the mighty Fishbone. What great memories.

This song is more important than we will ever know

everyone should be listening to fishbone

YOU CAN HEAR THE BASS!!!!! YEAH!

Yeah, this song is SICK and Fishbone shoulda been HUGE in 1991 but keep in mind RHCP was an underground band back then. And so were Soundgarden, Nirvana... the list goes on and on. Only us "freaks" listened to these groups in an era when Warrant, Whitesnake, and Poison were still chart toppers. But all that stopped in October of that year. By June of 1992 everybody was singing ""Give It Away," spandex was dead, and Chris Cornell was a household name but Fishbone never got the recognition they deserved.

One of the best shows i saw with these guys was in BC Canada. Customs refused one of their horn players into canada. So they got word out and a young clean cut white guy stood in for the show. It was an amazing show and the guy did a fantastic job with literally last minute notice. He didnt miss a beat and Fishbone welcomed him like their own. Truly class these guys are !

Lifelong Fishbone fan here and while I’m nervous about the upcoming changes to the band, I’m optimistic Fishbone will continue to deliver amazing music and amazing live shows.

i still miss those songs about wbru ;)

My older brothers used to listen to this group, they had a VHS tape with a lot of their music videos.. when I was a little girl this video used to scare me because of the children in cages lol but I always liked the song.

The most underated band that ever existed. Everyone is brilliant. Angelo is incredible doing whatever he needs to.

Never heard of these guys, but went on my Spotify discover weekly and this song came up. It became my 2nd most listened to song of 2021. Still bumping this. Such a masterpiece

I’m sold....you are my shinny new obsession!!!

I remember when this hit in the early 90s,,,,,,,,This is neutron bomb musicianship, absolutely zero quarter given. First time I heard this, I went looking for their other material and found out that FB are a whole lot more than this....Brilliant song, Shows all those 'metal' pretenders of the era how its done...and with an undiluted message to boot. ...Badass, Brilliant, uncompromising...what else you want???

"I see the pestilence outside my window" some of the best lyrics ever written

Holy crap! Why didn't I hear about these guys 30 years ago?

Hands down the best show I ever saw was Fishbone at First Avenue in Minneapolis. Think it was like 1993. The band (especially Angelo) were absolutely at full throttle giving 150% for a good 90 minutes. It was crazy the way they commanded the audience. The pit went from pure chaos to actual dancing just by playing the next song. Then back to pure chaos. There has never been anyone that can touch their live show.

This blew me away, still does

This band was so far ahead of their time they're STILL ahead of their time.

I can hardly wait to see you again! 🕊🕯🎈🎆🎏

Still my go-to for a quick adrenaline fix.

Classic , and highly underated . These guys were seriously skilled and tight musicians , they had a positive message and intense energy. Even now what ever projects they are working on i wish these musicians the best and thx for years of great work.

Song of the decade in my opinion. Song for the ages.

God DAMN, this is the best thing I've ever heard...

This is a seriously bad-ass tune and band!

My L.A boys!!! 🔥🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾 Them and Living Color should have made tons of money!!!!

Most amazing band I have ever witnessed

God I love this song. The message. You all are GIANTS! After all these years this song is more lit than ever!

I originally got into Fishbone because of their ska roots... but this has to be my fave of their songs without a trace of that ska sound.. damn this shit slaps HARD!

The drumming in this song is a punch in the face...amazing.

Thank you Video Music Box for introducing me to this band back in the day.

See these fncking awesome dudes about 4 times. Smoked out with them after one of their shows. Angelo was freestyling his poetry out front in a tent before their set at Lollapalooza. Unknown by soooooo many. Sad.

Which genre does Fishbone plays? A: Yes

This is a masterpiece.

I used to have this record. Loved this song...

This is my favorite Fishbone track. When someone asks who is Fishbone? This is the answer.

Simply put, the greatest band ever.

I JUST saw Fishbone live at a club in detroit. Yes they're still at it, but I think this may be their farewell tour. They haven't lost it one bit, it was the rockingest craziest show I've ever been to-they opened with this song, and just exploded.

I feel like I saw this video decades ago. Once. Sounds so familiar, looks so familiar. But so foreign at the same time. Good stuff either way!

Music with some POWER... a lot. Fantastic!

This song is not political; it's not racial. The reason this song is great is that it's about depression, plain and simple. We can be depressed for different reasons, but it's part of the universal human condition. *Liked*

Badass & kickass. Unique. Bloody brilliant. Amazing.

This song makes me miss music.

These fishy boyz JAM! I’ve always thought as much. Happy to hear it every time. 🎸🎼

This is what Rush would sound like if they were from south central Los Angeles.

Fishbone was always a head of their time! So happy I got to see them a few times in their prime.... Their energy was amazing! Now sharing them with my son who is my age when I seen them.

This song is an all time classic.

These guys should've been soooo big!!

Greatest song of its time. A fucking masterpiece.

I grew up with this song, this song helped me in rough times. Im 16 now and i know this song all of my life because of my dad. Im very thankful he let me listen to this music!

This is one the greatest songs ever written.

The most underrated band ever.

I am and always be a Fishbone solider.

This band was a huge huge HUGE influence on me, as a young black kid who loved hard rock, this was the first band that rocked out good where the members looked like me. back then the only black people you saw in rock music was the occasional drummer or bassist with a white singer and guitarist up front getting all the love.

21 years later... this song still kicks all kinds of ass !

fishbone one of the greatest bands in music history

Fishbone - Sunless Saturday I see the pestilence outside my window I see the dung heaps piled at least a mile high I see the shards of shattered dreams in the street I face the morning with my customary sigh Whoa-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! I hear the sounds of children laughing aloud A stumbling wino has attracted quite a crowd My breakfast finished now I brave the outside But clouds have hidden all the warmth inside Chase these clouds away I hate this sunless Saturday Chase these clouds away I hate this sunless Saturday Freedom come (Freedom come) For us now . (For us now) Light our sky (Light our sky) Burn away These clouds Yeah! Perhaps the charcoal grey and brown around me Is just the mirror image of tainted soul I think the sun will never visit my sky Until the truth is seen by each and every eye Whoa-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! Chase these clouds away I hate this sunless Saturday Freedom come (Freedom come) For us now . (For us now) Light our sky (Light our sky) Burn away These clouds I see the helpless and I see the insane I see a pauper singing in the pouring rain I see the means of help elude us again I think the sun will never visit me again Whoa-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh! Chase these clouds away I hate this sunless Saturday Saturday! Saturday! Saturday! Sunless Saturday! Oh-yeah-haa-yeah! Saturday! Saturday! Sunless Saturday! Sunless Saturday! Oh-yeah-haa-yeah!

I saw this band live in 1992. Totally blew my mind. Never had seen anything quite like it until that point. Effing amazing.

Seen them live in Sydney. Never seen such energy in any performance! Absolutely awesome. Great playing and singer is unbelievable,like he's possessed by the music. Incredible to watch.❤😮

I’m amazed that that people don’t know or understand how important this band is. This song is fucking timeless.

Brilliant band and one of THE best live shows I ever saw. Saw them at Lollapalooza and once they opened for Primus.

good music knows no color

NORWOOD & FISH...one of the Baddest most influential Mutha Fishin rythem sections to date! Who's with ME!

Great song! The part that gives me the chills is the acoustic guitar and the trumpet on the outro.

Saw them many times in the 90s, absolutely awesome! They never conformed to the 3-4 minute live songs. They would go on for 10 minute tangents.

The lyrics to this song blow away 99% of today's mainstream drivel.

何度聴いてもカッコイイ！

Power, emotion, truth and humour. What might have been... Happy to have been there.

That is one of the greatest riffs.

Incredible performances, super high energy, deep meaningful lyrics, thrashing riffs, super catchy beat and rhythm....Fishbone has it ALL.

Kendell doing that fucking awesome guitar solo with the wavy watery sound, Phil going crazy on the drums, man it doesn't get better than this.

Yet I conclude. A Resplendent & Majestic Offering. Salutes Satalotes of Love. 🙏🏻✨🎄🌌🏄🏼‍♂️🐻‍❄️🇺🇸

This album is 20 years old and the music world still hasn't caught up with it..

They were SO blazing a trail in this wonderful, powerful and mysterious direction. Either nobody could or would follow them. Damn! Music would have been so much better TODAY if they had. What a missed opportunity for all of us because nobody else had the guts. Very popular with white kids and all but unknown to black kids which is a switch because customarily it is black kids who are in the vanguard. I liked Prince and really liked Living Color but I LOVED Fishbone.

You k now how many groups today wouldn’t exist without these guys… almost all of them

In 1990 this song was about inner-city America. Now it's just about America.
