Straight Edge (song)
"Straight Edge" is a track from Minor Threat's 1981 eponymous debut 7" EP, later reissued both as part of the 1984 collection ''Minor Threat'', then as part of 1989's ''Complete Discography''. The song was the inspiration for the name of the punk subculture straight edge.
==Cultural impact==
The song provides a very succinct summary of Ian MacKaye's interpretation of the straight edge philosophy, in the four opening lines,
"''I'm a person just like you''
''But I've got better things to do''
''Than sit around and fuck my head''
''Hang out with the living dead.''"
This anti-inebriation movement had been developing in punk prior to this song, but the song was a major influence in giving the scene a name, and in frontman Ian MacKaye, something of a (somewhat unwilling) figurehead. The song is also notable as being, at 46 seconds long, unusually short, especially considering its cultural impact. The track's themes were later followed up, and further detailed by the later Minor Threat songs "Out of Step (With the World)" and "In My Eyes".
