Though up till then I'd thought that what I had was fine
I realised then as the earth moved that first time
that I had had more here inside
just waiting for the vital spark
and then it crashed in on my senses with a bang
and overtook me with a pleasure oh so strong
that had been hidden for so long
like switch a light on in the dark
I heard the sound of 2 guitars clash [etc]
And ever since I've sought the sheer release I've found
in the explosion of electrifying sound
that hits and lifts me off the ground
the jolt & jangle of live wires
I wanna hear the 2 guitar clash [etc]
Oh can you hear it, I wanna feel it, I wanna be it cos its real
I rushed home at night to listen with school friends
and queued to bump & jump to the sound of real live bands
but now the power's in our own hands
and we will grab it while we can
We're gonna make the 2 guitars clash [etc]
Stiff Little Fingers sono una rock band nordirlandese di Belfast, formatasi nel 1977. Inizialmente si chiamavano Highway Star e suonavano cover di rock, fino a quando non scoprirono il punk. Dopo sei anni e quattro album, la band si sciolse, per poi riunirsi cinque anni dopo, nel 1987. Nonostante importanti cambiamenti nella formazione, continuano ancora oggi a girare in tour e registrare musica. Jake Burns, cantante principale, è l'unico membro rimasto presente in tutte le incarnazioni della band. Nel marzo 2006, il bassista originale Ali McMordie tornò a suonare con la band dopo il ritiro di Bruce Foxton (ex The Jam), che aveva suonato per quindici anni.
