Ken Bishop's Nice Twelve - Subterranean Homesick Blues

[Demonsword92]

Jools Holland?? lol

[Bloodybunny]

@adamgrocco Not only do I prefer this to the original, I thought it WAS the original. I never stumbled over the Dylan version for another couple of years.

I can't believe this hasn't ever been released SOMEWHERE, given all the things Jools has his fingers in.

[bader1303]

Dickheads.........

[adamgrocco]

I honestly prefer this over the original Bob Dillon version.  /watch?v=PqIPCx1BpMQ

[newwavepop]

it really pissed me off when after years, MANY MANY years of waiting for the young ones to be released i bought it to find alot of the music segments gone. and this is the one i wanted most.

[kuqi320]

@newwavepop Crap isn't it!

[ftwjme]

Who is the guy who says "Don't wear sandals" at 1:32? Kind of looks like John Otway (Body Talk guy from the Summer Holiday episode).

[vanillaorchid]

@ftwjme It's Simon Brint AKA Ken Bishop, who dies recently. There's a nice tribute video featuring his stuff with Rowland Rivron, AKA Duane Bishop, on youTube.

[KristyB5]

How in all the millions of times I've watched this did I not notice that it was Stewart Copeland?! I guess too much going on!

[ClerkyBhoy]

Absolutely love it!!

[hiddenbutdeadly]

"pump dont work cos the vandals took the handle"

that guys voice is awesome

[bumyambum]

it's Catchy

[hiddenbutdeadly]

@bumyambum

agree the lyrics are awesome

[BelavistaMan]

Stewart Copeland is truely the man!

[ariellevonglitz]

thanks for sharing..the locations in this I know very well indeed!

[LadyStardustVertigo]

Gah, they cut if out from my version. Faschists!

[PM1970]

What a fantastic version! I was hooked from the very first time I saw this on the Young Ones!! Great stuff!!

[hkfan1980]

OMG is one of them guys singing jools holland :O

[FinallyImIn1]

1 of my fav songs in the Young Ones with House of Fun (Boring) & Dr. Martens Boots (Oil)

[ianandy1234]

Ahh,in the days when jools was cool, too busy playing boogie woogie piano now

[isabellebrodin]

i love this :D

[shaun680]

Looks like Roland Rivron's REALLY struggling to keep a straight face!

[ShadyDragonfly]

I've never seen this! My VHS episodes have this edited out even though "Ken Bishop's Nice Twelve" is in the credits.

Is this clip included on any of the videos or DVDs now?

[RevengeVirus]

Some of the DVDs left the music clips and some don't, they were cut for copyright crap and all that nonsense

[tmofee]

it's on the newer complete young ones box set with the documentaries and everything else...

[locorojo25]

For contractual reasons, this has been edited out of DVD releases in the past, but has been reinstated for the 25th Anniversary edition.

[mistressofspin]

@ShadyDragonfly thats strange as I have vhs & its on that along with all the other performances ! had no idea that they cut it from some !

[newwavepop]

when i seen this so long ago i spent years trying to find stuff by the band. this was before google :) i wish they had released something.

[b0rdelaise]

i can't belive how young Jools Holland looks

[TheFunGreenDragon]

To be fair to Holland, even now, he looks good considering his age.

[patthemonkey2]

WHERE CAN I GET THIS SONG!?!?

[reachforthelasers]

It would be hard to get this version of the song. This band only existed for this episode. Bob Dylan sang the original, but it's not as good as this.

[majorsnag]

I was over the moon when this was on the young ones.Love Dylan, Squeeze and the young ones so it's a bit like christmas here today! haha,..."but i only said i was a paccifist".

Jools makin' his move on the world already

[rokerroar]

Thanks for postin this. Pure Class.

Everything Jools Holland puts his hand to is pure GOLD

[tomfoolery815]

Thanks for uploading this! I remember this fondly, especially Stewart physically removing the other guy from the drum kit.

It's a shame that rights fees (or whatever) are keeping the original music off the DVDs.

[comicgr8s]

luv this its so good and i luv the youdng ones thanx soooooooooo much for this its gr8

"watch the parking metres" lol jodie x

[miss2tone]

Aaah Mister Copeland, love him!!! This is ace, and its an ace version.. the bass is brill on it.

[mutikonka]

According to the writers this is fake snow - shot in Bristol, and they "snowed" the wrong house and had to pay compensation.

[needacrane]

Glenn Tilbrook isn't in this. It is great though. Thanks for posting.

[thesecretpolice]

This is brilliant, cheers....

[johnnybeane]

That's classic!!

JB

[scents2]

Thank you for this!!! Iv searched for years.

[kellalizard]

I really NEED this version of the song :( The Young Ones FTW! ^_^

[spacecat64]

Eh? Why didn't I see this in the actual video? It had a shorter music selection and scene instead. :/

[kellalizard]

If you see it on the video, its got the longer part, but i remember seeing it on television and thinking "what? where's the other part??" You're right.

[AceBiscuits]

ahh the young ones

editing this out was lame

[swordfishmatador]

Where can I find this song?

[lordknob]

Where is Derek Griffiths then? Is it actually THE Derek Griffiths or someone with the same name.

ps Don't tell 'em you're a pacifist!

[mazingap]

This is on my Australian VHS copy! It also had the scene with neil singing "sounds of silence" in the bathtub which was also edited out...

I hope all is returned in the October 2007 dvd rerelease.

[mgbsystems]

Is that Ronald Rivlon in the video???

[TakeOffYerPants]

Yup, Rowland Rivron's in it. (Check out my full description.)

[mgbsystems]

I hate the bbc for their dumb editing on the dvd, it's simply because they refused to pay the copyright for the clip, but look at some of the other clips taken out of things link only fools and horses, bit of fry and laurie, eyc, etc, you would think they had enough money to pay, this was the best scene in the show.

[davinata]

You know what I like about this episode? The snow. Remember when we had snow every winter? Sigh.

[kark007]

Yeh I noticed the Beeb left this out. I thought I was losing a couple minutes on the DVD, that's one classic clip for the collection my favourite.

[turntapzap]

I don't get Zimmerman.

[Labruskie]

Excellent! Thanks very much for uploading this. I still can't bring myself to chuck out my VHS tape of this because of the incomplete DVD episode. Copyright law, ruining entertainment since 1662...

[drh3010]

Lots of stuff changed on the VHS compilation.

Neil singing The Sound of Silence in the tub for instance...edited out.

Anyway, what's funny is MTV edited a scene in this episode (Cash) but it's included on the VHS release (!)(?)

Does anyone know the original song playing when Neil "raids" Warlock's party? It's NOT the song in the VHS release...or for that matter, the original party music in the episode Interesting?

[Labruskie]

Here's a nowhere near complete list of music from the episodes drh3010 mentioned.

Cash

?- Cliff Richard (Playing on Rik's record player before Viv nabs it for fuel)

Subterranean Homesick Blues - Ken Bishop's Nice Twelve (cruelly cut from the DVD)

Il Duce's Eurovision song

? - Steve Hillage (I don't know the title but Neil says, "Right, Listen... oh, no... Steve Hillage" after hitting the music Centre"

[Labruskie]

And from Interesting

Down and out tomato song (Not actually the title, just a handy reference)

? - Human League

Cinderella Rockefella - Esther & Abi Ofarim (Instrumental version - As Cinderella turns up.)

? - Rip, Rig and Panic

?-Something to do with Dancing on the ceiling, but not that Lionel Richie tune.

Its my party - Dave Stewart and Barbara Gaskin

You'll Always Find Me In The Kitchen At Parties - Jona Lewie

Mama told me not to come -- One of any of the many covers.

[drh3010]

Thank you!!! It's Electrick Gypsies by Steve Hillage. My 20+ year search is over.

By the way it's "You're My Kind Of Climate" by Rip, Rag and Panic.

[totalfucker]

the cliff richard song is 'Move It', what Lennon called the first British rock song. but has anyone been able to identify the 'danciing on the ceiling' song?

[futurekawai]

I just love Stewart Copeland fighting with the other drummer.

[alltorquenopants]

You sir (uploader) are a king. Thanks!

[grrrrrsum1stolemynam]

I always wondered why this wasn't in it cos it's in the credits, I didn't know what it was!

[grrrrrsum1stolemynam]

THANKYOU SO MUCH! There's a little smidgeon of it on the opening credits of my Young Ones-I wish they left it in it's cooool!

[thingsihaveseen]

Thanks for this, I was just about to upload a poorer quality one from UK GOLD 1993

[channel537]

Thanks for posting, I never thought I would see this again. It's so annoying they left this out off the DVD.

[miss2tone]

Fucking A!!!! I love you whoever put this on... its ace, and best of all the Copeland's in it!!!

[kylewilson2]

Guys singing to the melody without playing any musical instruments? Heh. I've never seen THAT before!

[bexappeal]

woo hoo!!! Finally, after buying the DVDs to realise it was cut out, i get to see this fantastic clip!! Thank you so much!! :o)

[nico4390]

omg omg thank you very much for this ive been searching for ages tryin to find this song thnkx 5 stars for this

[vitaminbomb56]

Thanks so much for uploading this!

[keef71]

simon brint and rowland rivron were 'raw sex', the organ/bongos combo from 'french & saunders' sketch show (brint was ken bishop and rivron was his nephew dwayne)

also present on drums is stewart copeland from the police

one guy looks kinda like nick lowe, legendary english 'new wave' musician/songwriter, but i'm not sure if it's him

[blixem59]

@keef71 Yes it is Nick Lowe :)

[ellavader]

Is that Stewart Copeland on drums?

[almadora]

yes, that is! and chris difford from squeeze, jools holland leading the band, of course...and i recognize some actors from british comedy who's names i can't place.

[spg73]

Is that Nick Cave "talking 'bout the heat pump?"

[MollyHuggins]

This is niiiiice :D Thanks for posting this! I never knew there was a missing scene from the Young Ones DVD :O This is actually better than most songs from TYO, love it! :)

[evilgenius9383]

Who are this band? Is this on record? The only reference I can find to them points the The Young Ones.

[illidansart]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES. Now I finally got to see the mission DVD bit from "CASH" Bring all your friends who loves "The Young Ones" and let them see this!!!!!!

[almadora]

amen, jack...amen. he sounds so sexy. i've been in love with him since the first time i saw this back in...1985, 86?

[jackdollhandler]

jools should sing a lot more often

[almadora]

[anh203]
