The Undertones -There Goes Norman

[mopbrush1]

Bob on this !!

[hippieluv2]

i love this band so much! me and my friend were on the bus the other day and there was this old guy who kept on turning around and staring at us in a creepy way, so we moved to the seat behind him and we wrote on the back of the seat THERE GOES NORMAN! with an arrow pointing at the man and i took a photo of it...

[arcseamwelder]

who is the kid on the left side?!

[VikingDude81]

The Undertones are one of the greatest bands ever.

[WistfulDog]

Salvadory is right - growing up at this time was exiting and there was music for boys to like and identify with. XTC & Gary Numan were great too - and the music hasn't dated. Pop has it's place - but you don't hear 10 year old boys singing what's in the charts at the moment.

[salvadory]

the undertones the jam the clash the damned the specials- what a time!

[kinksboss1]

@salvadory

dont forget the Buzzcocks

[salvadory]

@kinksboss1 and wed have to include the ruts wire joy division the pogues etc-!

[ballsofun]

clean, tight, fast, energenic, young, punk at it's best, great lyrics....saw them in Allentown, Pa. in '80 and was 2 hours of just fantastic music and controlled mayhem. Gave the O'Neils some of my buttons I was wearing at the bar at their break. Great guys, fun times and one very talented band!!!!!!!!!! Keep goin lads!!!! Dave Bartholomew  orig. from Allentown ps... 999 was great too!!!!!!!

[doonfooty]

Is it just me or does Feargal sound a little like less pretentious Brian Ferry?

[TheBigFuckingGun32]

Bleeding great sound, from a bloody great band. Never heard of them until about a month ago. It's a crying shame they never really made it big. It's almost as if somebody took the sound of The Beetles and mated it with that of The Monkeys. Brilliant, just brilliat.

[RE4RamonSalazarfan]

Undertones are fucking brilliant!

[unmedication]

Ho my.. G... OOOOd. That is the way I met the Undertones in an afternoon of '84. I don't fit with with the mood now. Did I lost it ?

[aivopark]

Is Norman that perfect cousin?

[hufclufc]

IT'S GREAT WHEN YOU KNOW SOMEONE CALLED NORMAN COZ YOU CAN SING THIS WHEN HE GOES!

[brian9999]

It just does not get any better than this !

[IMheady]

They had to live in the shadow of Stiff little fingers,arguably the best punk to come out of Ireland at that time.Hence,Undertones content was deemed bubble gum punk.Far from it,growing up in a smalltown in Canada in the mid to late 70's,we totally related to it! Tongue in cheek type humour !

[TheDannysays]

que cancion mas zarpada

[mickeybaumann]

superb video !! great idea !! love the tones....

[thecoolvera21]

love it <3 #1

[streeTkiDwannaBe]

First Undertones song I ever heard way back when I was in junior high

[UltimateSkaFan]

Norman kinda looks like Alex DeLarge from A ClockWork Orange

[howdenender]

superb.

[iamatwat]

hands up thought it was just teenage kicks? what a band

[aivopark]

With these great smash hits, I can`t understand why theUndertones are not mega millionairs? Any band in the world(universe) would die for this music.

[s2trash]

At the time they did not have the street cred other bands like the Buzzcocks had etc . Many found there image a bit of a joke . Great shame as the music and lyrics were and are some of the best from that time .

[DCFC91]

excellent love the song

[missygreendaychimp]

i love this song xD

bloody great!

[DanAgger5]

But they were startin to develop different tastes in music. Sharkey went out and done stuff with erasure wile the o'Neills went to 'That petrol emotion'. Different taste in music and the fact that they were only half fillin concert halls lead to this bands decline. Sharkey got sick off the abuse he was recievin from people bout his style and he left

[tallxpro]

Wow thanks for this one- i Loved the undertones back in the late 70's early 80's...still great

[allietess]

im so hot that I just took all my close off!!

[delphicgobshite]

[WankityWank]

Nice one luv this one thanx for putting it up.U2 should have wised up and realised that an irish accent can Rock aswell without the need to be singing in an american one.

[biddymagee]

[lewys93]

You can also thank:

M.BRADLEY

D. O'NEILL

B.DOHERTY

J.O'NEILL

You can't say that they were only good because of Fergal. He didn't write the songs.

[igornonsuch]

Shit gotta be best part of 25 years since i last heard this

Nice one Cheers theaceface ;)

[annyloveseddy]

who's the kid?

[Kieronoldham]

Hes in the My Perfect Cousin video as well.... can only assume its Feargals younger brother. Not 100% on that one though....

[feargal75]

have never seen this version of "there goes Norman" many thanks - Feargal Sharkey also SO BRILLIANT !!! even after the Undertones !!

[chinn11]

Hahaha! Is Norman a stalker, or pervert? The Lyrics make him out to be either one

[annyloveseddy]

Norman Bates from "Psycho" paranoid skitzofrenic, or however it's spelled...

:)

Love Feargal!

[ragozhin]

NORMAN BATES in IRELAND!

THIS BAND WAS GREAT! THANKS FOR THE POST!

[mattmfc7]

[bluespower]

10 stars! loved fergal and the boyz for years!! british punk rules! stay kooooooooooool

[SpiegleinSpieglein]

Hey, thanks for uploading this vid! I've been listening to John Peels's music for years and he was very fond of The Undertones. So he played them almost as often as The Fall. And "Norman" was one of my fav songs. And this is good quality - so 10Q!

[Wattsie]

Brilliant!
