Appearing at the end of ‘National Treasures – The Complete Single’ compilation album, the video for Manic Street Preachers’ idiosyncratic and heartfelt cover version of The The’s classic 1983 single, ‘This Is The Day’, is an emotiional montage of the band’s career.

Going right back to their earliest days as enthusiastic kids in south Wales and through their rise to international stars, this video serves to remind of Manic Street Preachers’ epic journey and that crucially – nine years after its release – it’s still far from over.
