‘No one wins in the human race’

September 17, 2014

Dave Gleeson of The Screaming Jets talks about Greg’s song “141” on the Screaming Jets album “Do Ya” which was originally recorded on DV8’s first album “Stab In The Dark” – 141 is a song that was originally written by Greg Bryce from a band called DV8 out of Newcastle (he also wrote “Blue Sashes” on ‘All for One’ and Back on the Hard Drugs on the ‘Tear of Thought’ album). It had more of a punk feel to it when first released in the late 70’s or early eighties. It basically says we need to find real solutions to the ills of today’s society, instead of sticking a publicity band-aid on the problem, and hoping it goes away. I think the line, ‘no one wins in the human race’ is a f**kin’ corker. My only regret being that I didn’t write it.”
