"West End Riot" was the fourth single taken from Australian rock group, The Living End's debut self-titled album. It was released in July 1999, but did not reach the top 50 – although it was popular with listeners of national radio station, Triple J, appearing at No 48 on their Hottest 100 poll for that year.〔 The song title and lyrics refer two boys who are born and raised in two different areas, who play together in the streets with toy guns, but who grow up to live very different lives, with their childhood fun being nothing more than a memory. The song is based on the West and East sides of Melbourne, even though in later years the feud has died down. The video for the song was directed by Don Letts, (who also directed a number of The Clash's videos). It was filmed in London whilst the band was touring the UK.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Living End videography )〕 A crowd favourite, it is often played at the end of a show, most notably at Festival Hall in 2006. The song appears in the opening film clip for the PlayStation 2 video game ''World of Outlaws: Sprint Cars 2002''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】World of Outlaws: Sprint Cars 2002 credits )〕 ==Track listing== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「West End Riot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
