Sleaford Mods - B.H.S. Lyrics

Sounds like Hiroshima Mon Amour by Ultravox, with that drumbeat at the start.

British Home Stores (BHS) was a chain of department stores in the UK controlled by Sir Philip Green, the chairman of Arcadia Group, which also owns Topshop, among others. The chain was shuttered in summer 2016, and 11,000 jobs were lost, as well as £571 million from the pension fund, leaving 22,000 former employees without retirement income. Having taken £400 million in dividends from the failed retailer, Green was sailing the Mediterranean on a newly-

Is BHS the British Healthcare System?

I WAS BORN IN THE WRONG GENERATION!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭💗💗💗💗💗💗

Wow, really good stuff !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fokkin’ell this is sooo fokkin’ British! Wicked!

Middle age rant rolling rap..fair play 👉👌🖕👍

electro punk i think of it.. the (punk) girls always loved aging punks... over 1million views. Like to see another middle aged rant rap of the same calibre

In the Bath, fat line of Mandy, preparing myself for tonight Sleaford Mods Hammersmith Apollo it’s gonna go off,

Some of the best music in the 2010s (gorillaz did produce plastic beach so that would be another gem in the 2010s) But the Sleaford Mods are legendary. They have modernized punk rock to make it "adaptable" to music today. Electronica and Punk rock is a very strange but one of the best music. It definitely changes my "all modern music is trashy" mindset and honestly shows something good can come out of these years still. My dad showed me this band starting with B.H.S. Some of my favorites are B.H.S, Tied Up In Nottz, Discourse, and Kebab Spider (I know those are the more "popular" songs by them. I'm still new to this band) This is my second favorite band now (under Gorillaz) I have no idea how these guys are still in between Underground and Mainstream. Hope these legends the best luck and hopefully they will get more attention soon

What's funny? A lot won't know what bhs is

@DISCOGOTHTHEJAZZFAN

I lay in hope for the knuckle dragging exodus 🤞🏼

Such a shame I can only like this once.

He makes the music.

Punk Rap? fkn top notch!! love it!!

Normally I hate this type of music with drum machines and lack of any instruments but it's much better with that punky voice over the top.

Best band in a decade. Amyl and the Sniffers too....

I miss BHS. I used to buy my sheets and pillow cases there.

Top Song “well said”

Jealous wankers.

A dystopian Erasure complete with a John Lydon / Iggy Pop hybrid front man. Mad stuff...👍

Rage against the Machine

LEGENDS

sounds like goldie lookin chain

this is me. I'm here boys.

#Zeitgeist💋

I like his punkish vocals and admittedly they've got a groove but a lot of their songs sound the same which is not a bad thing and I like his honest lyrics but I thought their album was quite monotonous. Probably best listened in playlist shuffle.

I would say it's a bad thing. They have a bland and monotonous sound.

YT put some stupid red beard whinger on as a 'might like'. Thx for that.

What I love is how SM give away all their money so they can stay authentic and keep singing about the man like skint bitter northerners.

If an talentless boring pair of pricks had a drum machine they would be called sleaford mods.

Indeed we are matey

im gonna need a VCR!!!

We're going down like Toys R Us.

The best best best stuff I've seen in 30 years

Was introduced to these guys last week and I must say ,what a breath of fresh air. My new band of 2019 . 👏👏👏

Superb bend! (greetings from Croatia)

When you're lookin through some of your well old shit and you find songs you used to write when you were 13 😂

The beats. The voice. Keep it up. Look forward to Newcastle gig. Well dressed angry bastards

Yes this.!!

Reminds me a little of Alien Sex Fiend.

2:53 - Peter Griffin in disguise

Pure gold.
