1) Northside is a band from the suburbs of Blackley and Moston in North Manchester, England. Founded in 1989 by Warren "Dermo" Dermody (vocals/lyrics) and Cliff Ogier (bass), the band released their debut and only album, "Chicken Rhythms," on Factory Records in 1991. Northside was part of the 1990s Madchester/baggy/indie-rave scene. Michael Upton (guitar) and Paul Walsh (drums) later joined the band, replacing Timmy Walsh, who played guitar in their first single, "Shall We Take A Trip." The single was banned by the BBC for its references to drugs, but it broke into the UK Singles Chart Top 50 despite the lack of airplay.
Northside's next single, "My Rising Star," was released in October 1990 and reached No. 32 on the chart. "Chicken Rhythms" peaked at No. 19 in June 1991, produced by Ian Broudie. In 1991, the band scored a minor hit in the United States when their single "Take 5" reached No. 5 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart. The band split up after their label Factory Records declared bankruptcy in 1992, despite having recorded a second album.
In 2003, Dermo and Ogier formed Silent Partners, while Walsh played with Manchester rock band Sons of the Stage. In 2006, Northside played gigs in Leeds and Manchester, and the album "Chicken Rhythms" was re-issued on LTM Recordings. Dermo formed V Thirteen in March 2011. In 2014, Northside reunited with all four original members and toured England. In 2017, Dermo released his debut single "Vultures" on Eromeda Records and recorded his debut solo album set for a 2018 release.
2) Northside, a trap artist from Costa Rica.

SUTEEJI tacha kawaiKO butte kobiutte
Sharedaka ka nandaka shiranee keredo KAKKOwarii ze
O-ie ni kaette MOMMY no mune demo mondoke
AND IT DOES NOT COME OUT!
Taikutsu datta kinou ni tsubahaite
Kisei ni shitagau POP ni nakayubi tatete
Yaritai you ni yaru sa mawari wa kankei nee ze
STAND UP! RISE YOUR FIST! LET$ GO IT IS OUR TURN
DESTRUCTIVE MUSIC YEAH
The lyrics of Northside's song "Yeah Man" are a depiction of the rebellious spirit and non-conformist attitude of the youth in contemporary Japanese society. The lyrics talk about how one should not care about what others think and simply enjoy life to the fullest. The opening lines "Choushi ii koto bakka narabete hozaite SUTEEJI tacha kawaiKO butte kobiutte" translate to "Just line up all the good things and dance on stage, let loose and have fun". The lyrics urge people to be themselves and express their feelings without any inhibitions, even if it means going against the established norms of society.
The line "Taikutsu datta kinou ni tsubahaite Kisei ni shitagau POP ni nakayubi tatete" talks about breaking free from the monotony of everyday life and following one's passion. The lyrics suggest that rather than living a boring and uneventful life, one should pursue their interests and passions to find true happiness. The chorus of the song "STAND UP! RISE YOUR FIST! LET$ GO IT IS OUR TURN" portrays the youthful exuberance and the determination to take on the world despite the challenges. The song ends with the phrase "DESTRUCTIVE MUSIC YEAH", which is a signifier of the punk-rock music culture that is prevalent among the youth of Japan.

Loved this album. Bought it the same day I bought The Stone Roses First album. Yip they changed my life.
Northside live in Edinburgh 97 ( I think) was kicking.
