A tribute to Liz on her Jubilee...

Recommended Posts

A playlist to show how much we hold her in our hearts...

 

 

 

10. Manic Street Preachers “Repeat (Stars And Stripes)”

“Repeat after me, f*ck queen and country.”

[video: http://www.youtube.c...?v=4nDAHV7hPFs]

 

9. Crass “Big A Little A”

A general f*ck you manifesto directed at authority, this one features a way entertaining fake Queen Elizabeth singing lyrics.

8. The Exploited “Royalty”

In which the Queen of England gets slandered in this punk song with

turns of phrase such as “dirty little b*tch” and “f*cking little cow.”

[video: http://www.youtube.c...?v=WVykH-mtus0]

 

7. Primal Scream “Insect Royalty”

“Let’s roll out the golden f*cking coaches and all our f*cking crowns when

there’s people starving. Disgusting. England must f*cking truly burn one

day.”

[video: http://www.youtube.c...?v=qrHDk2u3sHQ]

 

6. The Housemartins “Flag Day”

“It’s a waste of time if you know what

they mean/Try shaking a box in front of the queen/’cause her purse is

fat and bursting at the seams.”

[video: http://www.youtube.c...?v=3-pxGH4eyLQ]

 

5. Bow Wow Wow “Louis Quatorze”

English new-wavers tackle the contentious moments in royal history in

this number, like French monarch Louis XIV marrying/statutory raping

underaged Marie Antoinette.

Choice lyrics: “Oh I love it when he says so seriously with his gun in my back, “Honey, close your eyes and think of England.”

4. Manic Street Preachers “Her Majesty’s Prisoners”

If it wasn’t clear by this point, The Manic Street Preachers probably hate the Royals more than any other band.

3. The Stone Roses “Elizabeth My Dear”

“Tear me apart and boil my bones/I’ll not rest ’til she’s lost her throne/My aim is true my message

is clear/It’s curtains for you, Elizabeth my dear.”

[video: http://www.youtube.c...?v=VJNcnDLWNis]

 

2. The Sex Pistols “God Save The Queen”

The Sex Pistols’ definitive assault on the monarch needs no further explanation.

1. The Smiths “The Queen Is Dead”

With anthems like this, it’s not surprising that Morrissey won’t be

tuning in to watch the festivities as he recently slammed the Royals as

“benefit scroungers” and christened the royal bride “Kate Muddleton.”

And a bonus for all the people in the UK who get the day off work:

Pulp “Common People”
