  • Madness! :D

  • Our house, in the middle of our street, our house.

  • ᶘ ᵒᴥᵒᶅ

    You were thinking it

  • It's nothing "WOULD" come between us, stupid announcer.

  • Starmans Umbrella Is My Mix Of The Original Jack Nitzche's Starman

  • @daveteedj so what?

  • The best advert of 2011

    

  • 0:25 Toilet skype chat WIN!

  • Actually the "music" is by Jack Nitzche (Starman theme) NOT Dan Black...... sampling something and sticking some beats over it doesn't constitute a writing credit. PLEASE alter the information on the video!

  • @leggylady You are absolutely correct. Jack Nitzche's score from master John Carpenter's hauntingly gorgeous film Starman deserves to be recognized as more than Dan Black's rip-off. One of the best films ever made, with one of the top scores ever written. P-L-E-A-S-E give credit to the original source of the music.

  • @leggylady hate to say it but Dan Blacks version is better... i normally hate remixes but this is beautiful

  • i love this advert

    so simple

  • Such a tragic song when spoken when you know that everything is supposed to be the opposite of suggs' life.

  • It saddens me that anyone would think this is "British".

  • @harpersneil why?

    

  • This is proper britain!!!!

  • killer backing music - a killer song , but they work better apart I think - I looked this up for the instrumental only and I love madness.

  • Best advert i've seen this year. It gave me a real nostalgic shiver when I realised what song it was.

  • I fink the voice needs to be more chavvy; "fucking remember when we used to say right *sniff sniff* ..."

  • for once, a bloody good advert

  • I love this advert so muchhh! Makes me happy. :L

  • After seeing this advert I jumped on Amazon and grabbed a copy of Starman - I'd forgotten just how brilliant a movie it was. Good times! Thanks for the memory jog Virgin :D

  • why would they ruin such a good song...?!

  • LOL AT THE ASIAN MAN <3

  • i hate this advert

  • I knew it!!

    Starman was on tv today and I was all "....I know this music!"

  • thats cool.. and as Paul said Chas wrote it.. :)

  • Ivor Novello winning words by Chas Smash, not Suggs.

  • The Flats at the beginning are on the cover of The Streets' Original Pirate Material.

  • Love it.

  • 0:25 ...

  • I Have Done A Version Of This Search For - Starmans Umbrella

  • symbol of british pride :')

  • What's the name of the song?

  • @pastille157

    The words are from the song by Madness called Our house

    The backing music is by Dan Black called Symphonies

    It's a remix of the orginal music, which was used in the opening titles of the film Starman

  • Cool

  • The beat is the same as Rihanna "umbrella"?

  • does anyone else think that the sister/nurse looks like lesley sharp ..?

  • Yep words by Carl :) 

  • Words by Carl Smyth actually.

  • Always been a fan of the band, and particularly liked this song, knowing the words intimately. When i heard it spoken as poetry, genius!

    Shame they couldn't squeeze the other verse (Father gets up late for work...)

  • at 00:15 im the dude snogging my girlfriend in the top window lol!!!

  • @caspargrindcore

    LOL did not even notice until you pointed it out.x
