Rancid - 'Salvation' (Music Video)

“Salvation” by Rancid from the album ‘Let’s Go’

Lyrics

Come on baby won't you show me what you got
I want your salvation

There's a neighborhood called Blackhawk
Where all the rich people hide
I was down on my luck working for the Salvation Army
The shelter is where I reside
Everyday we drive into Blackhawk
And we pick up the offerings
Microwave, refrigerator for the suffering

Come on baby wont you show me what you got
I want your salvation

I can't believe these people live like kings
Hidden estates and diamond rings
I'm a rat out on a mission
I'm in your front yard under suspicion

Come on baby won't you show me what you got
I want your salvation

You folks will get a kick out of this. I am now 71. I was a professional musician for 50 years playing up and down the east coast. I never had ANY interest in punk at all. But one day I stumbled on this song. I got a huge adrenaline rush listening to it.

Several years ago, I found out that they were playing at a little stand-up outside arena which held 150 people at best. I HAD to see them live at Jannus Landing in St Petersburg, Fl.

All I can say is that people were shoulder-to-shoulder. Hearing these guys play live was an unforgettable, exhilarating experience!

46 years old, still rockin' this shit in 2024!!

I'll never forget the first time I heard this song. It was on the noontime rock blocks from KNDD The End Seattle. That's all it took I bought every Rancid album and told my brother "I found The Beatles of punk! They're called RANCID."

[sonnyday]

California's finest crown and jewel of 90's punk rock. They kept the punk rock spirit alive in the 90's during the grunge era and even during the 2000's.

The bass lines of Matt are so magic ! ! ! Long live Rancid !

Dumb A$$ kid at OU, Norman Oklahoma. Loved britpop. Melody. Shoegaze. But, then I heard this on the radio. Grabbed Let’s Go on cd and man…doors kicked wide open. While I love my brit classics, my world opened a bit wider that day. Love Rancid and Operation Ivy. Ever expand your world…

[fanofjoestrummer]

Let's Go is one of the best albums in my opinion.

[ayottegirl]

Dope band. Dope song. Was there for it then. Am here for it now.

[SukitTrabeck]

There are a lot of punk bassists. But there is only one like Matt who can drive a chorus and verse like that!

[marvelgirl]

Grew up in the SF Bay Area and was there in the '90s, right down the hill from Blackhawk. Never got old drinking Budweiser, smoking Marlboro Reds, and crusing around jamming Rancid and looking for trouble. I just saw them not long ago and they are STILL my favorite all time band live! Thank you RANCID and SEE YA IN THE PITT!

[PXWest]

There was so much unity in the 90s, punks skins mods and and hot rod culture all expressed in one video. That rarely happens today...

[thirdlegstalliano]

Those pick scrapes that Lars is laying down sound amazing

[BrendanMcGinley]

Hearing this for the first time in the '90s changed my whole musical trajectory.

[meatisburger]

I sure miss growing up in the Bay Area in the 90’s. Flashbacks.

90's Heartthrobs, Punk Rock Edition. Punk Rock Times Exclaims. (Rolling 50's Film Noir Newspaper.) Spin, Rolling Stone and AP, you name it. The 1990's were either a Green and a Day or a Rancid, a Nirvana or a NOFX one might add to their Offspring. Keeping em' Separated? A peculiar and bizarre act in deed. A 1 a too a many, Punk Rock Shakespeare. 🥰😍😘🤪

This was the song that got me into Rancid. Saw them on the tour for this album at a little club in NYC. By the next tour, I was seeing them in Roseland Ballroom. It was amazing how big they got in such a short amount of time. Both shows were awesome though.

[Devilock]

I was 14 when this was released. This was my band. See you guys in Seattle.

[michaelchalkley]

The whole band came into a breakfast restaurant in San Carlos, CA, while we eating breakfast, after their set at the first Lollapalooza at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in June 1994.

[Zeal]

Me and friend air guitar playing all morning to this video 😅😂 missed the bus a couple times. We later got instruments and started a punk band. One of the best time of my life

[LAG]

This song was dedicated to me by a friend. I was going thru some very serious problems and it has become one of my anthems.
