  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Unfortunately we now only have B-stock available, in which the two vinyl discs are in pristine condition but the gatefold sleeves have very slight damage to a corner or corners, due to poor in-transit care by the postal courier (see examples in the photo).

    ** HENCE REDUCED PRICE **

    A 13-track vinyl extravaganza in gatefold sleeve with the lyrics on the inside. The blue (first plate) and orange (second plate) are 180g heavyweight and superbly match the artwork and colour scheme.

    Please note that this album is shipped from the UK and payment is now in British Pound Sterling.

    ALL NON-UK SHIPPING INCLUDES INTERNATIONAL TRACKING - HENCE THE COST.
    If you don't require tracking, let us know and we can reduce the cost and will refund the difference. By the way, we will ALWAYS refund you the difference if you end up paying more than the actual shipping cost.
    Also, if you buy a combination of merch e.g. Vinyl and T-shirt, then we will always look to combine shipping costs and refund you any difference.

about

Contribute to your local community and therefore the country - and feel good about doing so:

lyrics

Reassert our obligations to this land
Reclaim our title as the Champions Of Britishness
Consideration and responsibility
Want to spend my time doing some things that are of value

Get out and make a little difference to your world
Selfishness, arrogance corrupting our communities
It’s not impossible for us to make it change
Want to spend my days a-feeling good about myself
Want to demonstrate that I’m a human

Give back – ’cause giving back is good for you
Claiming back a country to be proud of – proud of!
Fight back – no laissez-faire disunity
Claiming back a country that we’re proud of – proud of!

We could do better with the time that’s on our hands
Coronavirus shows that it is more than possible
May just be small bits but then every little helps
Come away more positive and feeling that I’m useful

Those that take advantage they must be held to account
They spoil our cities and pollute our green environments
Uphold the rights of all us many not the few
Want to spend my time a-working for the common good
Want to show my offering has impact

Give back – ’cause giving back is good for you
Claiming back a country to be proud of – proud of!
Fight back – no laissez-faire disunity
Claiming back a country that we’re proud of – proud of!
Good for you!

Become a volunteer and give your time away
Pick up some litter and support your local charities
Make sure the neighbour who’s a granny is ok
Go the extra mileage and give of yourself!
I want a sense of purpose and to really contribute
Want to be respected as a human being

Give back – ’cause giving back is good for you
Claiming back a country to be proud of – proud of!
Fight back – no laissez-faire disunity
Claiming back a country that we’re proud of – proud of!
Good for you!

Do it today.
