Save Ferris - Come on Eileen

[BhartasX]

Im 2012 and still watching this video !!

[trexinvert]

Been through the mtv 80's. Dexy's was kinda catchy/downer sound to it. Held my attention for 5 minutes. Then, next? Save Ferris' versions and video has a lot of punch and energy plus cute girl. Leave original in the dust.

[jorlizre]

A clear example of a group without TALENT one-hit wonder

[iorijmg]

tahats song is the 96 year, No???

[JEFFERSON99philjapan]

[sboss]

ska can make anything better.

[Elthenar]

@sboss Only if you have a chick like Monique Powell who can really belt it out.

[TheUserName125]

@sboss ok i'm a noob... what is ska?

[sboss]

@TheUserName125 a genre of music.

[199291931]

This band is sick and this is a great cover!!

[ROCKROLAS147]

1:10 ME ENCANTA MONIQUE POWELL

[jaysonlemoine]

Shes so hot.

[austen1492]

The tow trucker was Dexters midnight runners singer the writers of the original song

[NephilimRomance]

I just...I dunno man. I don't get ska.

[chuzarules]

i will be so humping that girl in the back!!!!

[NYCPulpHero]

fucking people.. DEAL WITH IT. COVERS are a WAY OF MUSICAL LIFE.

[Danfrombackhome]

If Eileen woulda gave it up maybe the dude from dexey's wouldn't be a cross dresser....OH!

[WheresMyHighFive]

amazing cover. her voice is fucking awesome.

[garctown]

@WheresMyHighFive

well said.

[lordska69]

ska ska jamica ska

[SON0KONG]

monique is one of the hottest women to ever exist and she has a killer band dont get better than that

[LoveTheLies]

i love how people are getting thumbs down for saying the original is better.

they're both good. everyone happy?

[kuikoman]

chinga tu madre

[BURNINGWOWS]

she's pretty

[aliaseltopo1x]

this song is so fucking confusing hajajaja

[rorro1189]

though she's cute

[darkmages55]

one of the greatest songs from this band? this band didnt even make this song. anyway original is better then this.

[krisfwest]

HA my second cousin sings the original, so I'll always say the Dexy's is better

[RaiderSelenia]

oh wow hes ur cousin!!!!!! can u get me an autograph!!?

[krisfwest]

@RaiderSelenia 2nd cousin haha and sorry no, it'd be awkward!

[pimpyourhideontube]

....hmmm....sounds a lot like Mighty Mighty Bosstones to me?

[onsenman2008]

being that they are a ska band, i would assume so.. great song

[Skaramouche]

Of course! They sound like MMB. That's Ska! The funnniest rythm in the world.

[RandytheAstonishing]

@pimpyourhideontube

Its almost like they're the same genre.

[ravensbark22]

Sure it may be a bit fast , But as a Singer Band member I see the dedication they put into this song I think it's "Great"

[ravensbark22]

" I disagree", I think they both freakin rock.......

[moralenko]

nice!!!...but the original with Dexy's Midnight Runners is the best.

[amadeusyaoi]

This is /so/ 1997.

[technic58]

this might be the gayest thing ive ever seen. original SO much better

[jetranger47]

This is absolutely fantastic. I've always loved the original... this is better!

[vaf88]

so gay, so gayaeee

[KUBALIS1]

Is amzing....I love this !!!!! xD

[ben1853]

I like the orginal better...

[spiderlovin95]

u weren't joking

she is nice

[evilvon]

i'd like to come on her

[TheKhakinator]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA

[liyana4]

this is definitely not gwen stefanis voice.. though no doubt had done a cover before.. but I'd not seen it on youtube as yet so don't bother finding it here :)

[speraltax86]

ska is not dead!!! it is slowly making its comeback

[felipepalha]

This album is several years old...

[ShanShan1221]

it is not no doubt. her voice is deeper then Gwen Staffani's if you listen closely :D

[Sam210283]

Sorry for being ignorant, hope i´m not offending anyone with this comment, but.... I clearly hear Gwen Stefani's voice. Actually, if you search this song by No doubt, is the same one, so..... who are this people and is this girl really singing?

[IAINoodle]

she's deffo my dream woman

her over gwen stefani

any day!!

[slammarbyhammer]

stupid remake

[daviddowns81]

cover... a remake is a movie:P

[OneProof]

too bad Ska is dead now ...

[YagiKaru]

::Crys::

It died before i could love it...

[TheAmazingAwesomeGuy]

ska's not dead!

[Rastamanlives420]

both versions are great Drinkin' songs none the less

[daverj2009]

Ya, its a great cover & everyones really talented and all that...but its a little like watching Gwen Stefani take a crap behind a dumpster...

Entertaining, I suppose, but it hardly necessary that we see it.

[threelegduck]

dexys threeleg runners are better maybe but i think that the ska sound kicks ass. horns = awesome instrument for rock

[VolV8]

Another cover.

Not as bad as Avril Lavigne doing CHOP SUEY. Still pretty shitty though.

[NeuroticPixieSlasher]

The little brat dared do more covers on people who can actually make music?

[pinklovelab]

i really love this song!

[timbolino22]

Decxys midnight runners are better!

[ral848d]

An absolutely awsome cover,dexy would be proud, the lead singer (monique powell) is hot!!!

[gorman63]

you are a disgrace to all men

[dominatelife]

the violin and the other instruments are what made this song.

the ska sound doesnt sound as good

[NYCPulpHero]

oh bull-fucking-shit

[dominatelife]

i like how you are responding to everyone saying they dont like this song with a lot of hostility.

i didn't say i didnt like the song, i just prefer the original

grow up.

[NYCPulpHero]

last time i check, america didnt have a "K" and ppl were still free to voice their opinion.

[dominatelife]

just because you can voice your opinion doesn't mean you have to act like a dickhead.

[backstagesoul]

Why are you still here? From what I understood, you don't like this song...

[dominatelife]

have you read anything i said?

[muhsiul]

i used to hate this version now i respect it, it's well done my respect for doing the most out of an all time classic

[wuz852]

Dexy's Midnight RUNNERS are much better at this song than this shitty version because they were the original creators!

[MgTNaZzZ]

ur right dude

[backstagesoul]

Just because Dexy's Midnight Runners were better in your opinion doesn't make this version "shitty". I did like the original. However, I, personally, prefer the version by Save Ferris. I still find it confusing that people who don't like this song, or any for that matter, actually listen to them. Or even open them in the first place. Very confusing.

[wuz852]

sorry man i was just really pissed off that day because rappers and other bands are copying music that other people created, like flo-ridas right round re-do god i hate it the original you spin me like a record is a much better song than flo-ridas crap

[backstagesoul]

I hate the new version of you spin me like a record too but that's because they changed the lyrics to mean something bad rather than he just saw some girl and she blew his mind. The difference here is that this band kept most of the original lyrics and some of the original sound too. I also personally hate the newer version of Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger as well.

[wuz852]

Yeah thats what I was trying to say but as I said before, I wasnt having a good day when I put the first comment, but I have to agree with you, at least they kept the lyrics and most of the song.

[UndeadShaggyDoo]

actually i heard this was an Irish lullaby that dexy midnight runners made into a song

[jacomet23]

ya the original's much better. fun fact, the drummer got kicked out of the band halfway through the video, if u watch towards the end he's gone

[05LesPaul]

hey he's the last to appear!

[Laura12378]

jacomet23 u sound like that dude on paul blart: Mall Cop

funfact

[scorpionof86]

I swear if I didnt know better id say that was Gwen Stefani

[skamaster21]

born of vengenance 6661 skadaddyz did a cover of hotel California not less than jake

[louisville61]

not near as good as the original but still ok

[mctlm22]

Monique is so damn gorgeous.

[Nitemare727]

Dexy's Midnight Runners did a better job. but still a good song.

[idiocrat]

Please. At least you can understand this version

[Billyjoeljr]

is good but not as good as original

[krizanya]

they are not the original writers of this song.?

[Billyjoeljr]

look up the song by dexys midnight runners, they are the original group

[Dice3000]

year please ?

[skamaster21]

yeah same here i got shown ska i like this cover ska covers are pretty cool like the skadaddyz hotel California

[BornOfVengeance6661]

Less Than Jake's Hotel California cover is the best version of the song hands down

[caffeine4516]

this one is good but i like the original by dexy's midnight runners

[Monkafied]

i agree and this music video makes no sense with the song

[Dice3000]

ska ftw .. sometimes ..

[somnipod]

Totally cool live show back in the day! Saw them with Goldfinger in Providence at Lupo's.....sweeeeettt...

[jwlambkajw]

I like the girl in this video. Hell I liked her when her name was Gwen Stefani. She is a blatant rip-off of Stefani's vocal style. Garbage. this is Garbage.

[andyladousa]

just enjoy the song douche bag

[njurkshkjis]

Oh may. i searched for this song for so long :)

i just adore it!

btw: it's in "kinder bueno" comertial :)

[angelbabytwnkz]

i miss ska

[zenbiont]

Miss it being popular? Cause it's still around

[NavesRegg]

Hopefully ska will have a comeback. The 80's are popular now, maybe in ten years ska from the 90s will come back.

[apatheticgraffiti]

I know in my high school's marching band a lot of us listen to ska. My best friend showed it to me about a year ago and I've been a fan ever since.

Just try and show it to people to play musical instruments like trumpet, trombone, and sax. :]

[NavesRegg]

Will do! Thanks.

[brad71forfsu]

Ska is that stuff

[greenbean7899]

My best friend luv's this song!! u know who u r!!

[amoulet69]

Love this song, love Fender Strato, love that gloss lips...

[taimak123]

3:16 for some reason i start singing "whooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaa­aaaa, for the longest time" for some reason

[aDarkestScream]

Great song. I love the bassist's hat lol.

[igornonsuch]

Me too

I want that hat! (Or one like it )

[jiko2000]

Hey, the tow truck at 1:17 Is for a dexi's auto wrecking. hey. cool.

[letsrollnicolex]

I know! I've watched this video multiple times, but, didn't notice that until now.  How neat.

[NLSWITCH]

the original is so good and the ska version is also good it's one of the very rare breeds of covers that do the original justice.

one side note if if you have heard any bad ska covers can you tell me in a reply

[cutestkittyface]

who originally sang this song?

[christhrasher]

Dexi's Midnight Runners

[bsembler]

I kinda hate the ska thing, its a great better song when its celtic  inspired.

[christhrasher]

Yea. This version is alright though. Ska is great.

[hereosan]

when where this song done? (1982 as the same?)

[MrBrassMonkey]

no, ska and skunk were from the 90's, bands like No Doubt, Sublime, and Reel Big Fish. Reel Big Fish are my favorite, my high school band teacher toured with them

[Austinjoke]

Kinda reminds me of No Doubt, wonder why they never covered this!

[electricgirl17]

yeah it really does!it sounds like no doubt back in the 90s when they were kinda ska.

[acefilms28]

i prefer the orginal

[HaydnTheWall31]

yeah, this ones good too though

[Netty07]

This

Video

is

so

damn

SKA!!!!!!!!!

[roytboga]

awesome song. cool band. singer monique i believe is quite hot

[tifosaurus]

One of the best covers a group has done over a great hit! She gives a completely different perspective to the song.

[nathanielneall]

"One of the greatest songs from this band" too bad its not from this band

[carbot11]

sorry i should have added ska, is more of a pick me up or chilling music, metal is almost a get super pumped for snowboarding or something, lol sometimes ska is too though lol whatever music is music its personal preference

[TheSaintHooker]

i think both have their good features but i personally prefer this version. its all opinion though

[Zanzubar502]

Half of what ska is all about is fun covers of classics.

She can sing her ass off and is gorgeous to boot.

[HulaHippy1]

gd but i think original better

[RatOnAnEvilStar]

I like this cover. I especially like how they replaced the string section from the original with horns.

[carbot11]

lol why do people take music so seriously, music doesnt have to make sense look at frank zappa, or the aquabats. Can't it just be fun and pleasant to listen, dance and/or sing along to

[dudehurulez]

Lol exactly. I love both versions. But can you actually dance to death metal? Wouldn't your throat bleed if you sang to it? Just a thought. lol. but i love this band. or at least this song.

[carbot11]

death metal still has traits that i like, its very energetic, like ska, but it appeals more to your anger, hatred, or disgust.

[csf0506]

and i just pumped too!

[mellllllxo]

no i just farted.and it smells worseee!

haa woooooooo jkk(:

[bigblackmanswilly]

i just farted and it smells soooo damn bad

[Emster007]

Why is a girl singing this song...

[gavlaing]

why not??

[Emster007]

because it is about a guy singing to a girl..about stuff....

[gavlaing]

could be lesbian??

[Emster007]

Well that is stupid.

And it doesn't even sound right without the accent or anything. It sucks.

[csf0506]

Emster, your stupid and you suck so get to fuck u jew i love this song it makes me feel warm and fuzzy!!

[letsrollnicolex]

Because..it's a cover. So they can do whatever the hell they want.

[spl0ver]

dude it really dosen't matter... its jest a fun song. good god

[waterzuydcoote]

L'avantage sur you tube quand on est francophone c'est qu'on peut dire n'importe quoi, il n'y a personne pour vous repondre.

Evidemment c'est une super version qui renvoie celle de dexys dans les cordes. Celle de Save Ferris n'est pas parfaite mais quelle pêche !!!

[anonymousnunseen]

Je suis parfaitement d'accord bien que la version de Dexys ait un certain cachet.

[Smackdaddy9]

I'm all for it.

[spl0ver]

I think I <3 the buss, and her vose

[NiiiZo]

Horrible...

[charrette1223]

what?

[NiiiZo]

this song, the original is much better. :f

[Zorn76]

This is a bad cover that belongs in Vegas.

[coyclown]

Her voice reminds me of Gwen Stefanis.

[incongra]

HEY that is one solid bass line

[spl0ver]

YESSS MAN YESS!

[bikerchey]

this is a great cover, stfu.

[weezeraermittnick]

This cover is horrible!

Maybe thats why I like it?

A Love/Hate thing?

[swimkid01]

It's fine if you prefer the original. It's fine with me if you post that you do. Just don't come over here and start being a fat dick. It's a ska cover, and it's still soulful and sung well.

Eat a bag o' baby dicks, assholes.

[lordofdaedra]

you know, its not a good idea to even respond... if you provoke the ppl who cant keep their mouths shut, theyll just open em wider...

[swimkid01]

Let 'em get mad. I think it's funny.

Come on, what are they gonna do? Rate down the video? Oh noes!

[lordofdaedra]

yeah well if you upset an emo aggro theyre bound to eventually kill themselves... and its a waste of coffin material and burial space if they die now...

[swimkid01]

I'd rather they waste space underground than up here.
