Erasure Take A Chance On Me

[HanginWithSnakes]

What's disturbing is that Vince Clarke actually looks GOOD as a chick. :/

[ophs1980]

These guys really have balls. Great tribute to the greatest band ever.

[lanitana100]

O_O.....XD oh my god, hahaha! hehe i think it's alright....but the video's priceless!

[RepNuffSaidTar]

I LOVE this!! It makes me smile every time. :D

[StrangeBehavior100]

MC Kinky kills it!You can tell Nicki Minaj stole a lot of her technique.

[adltswim]

0:35 sounds like take a jizz on me

[DaveyH75]

@adltswim So true! XD

[Narcissiaxx]

Vince Clark looks really fed up with the whole affair. Haha

[handymandan100]

I've always wondered... is is Ollie oxen-free, or "honey I'm still free?"

[Kailkail]

@handymandan100 "Honey I'm still free....take a chance on me." 

[handymandan100]

@Kailkail yeah, i nknowz rly, I still googoogajoob wit da bestuvum.  "Big ole' jet hadda light on, scuze me, while I kiss dis guy."

[tejanamomma]

Does anyone know who does the rap part?

[BlaargZ]

@tejanamomma

M.C. Kinky, according to the liner notes for Pop!

[ScandalB52]

The Female part is Disappointing,oh well I guess just skip back to the Erasure parts

[peddytheviking]

Such fun!

[RedFreya13]

How could I NOT love this??!!

[arlindobeijo]

No dia que essa musica foi lançada, ela foi direto para o 1º lugar das paradas.

[KINOLOCO1]

For some reason I blast Erasure on my car stereo and really don't feel gay at all.

[plankydude]

@KINOLOCO1 Amen.

[AlwaysVegas2]

Andy and Vince are the most awful men in drag ever, yet the video is brilliance! Kisses Erasure!

[XiomaraNekozawa]

This song would OWN without the woman.

[morethansalt]

@XiomaraNekozawa LOL!

[crazycatlady68]

I saw them in Toronto during their Abba phase and it was FANTASTIC

[crazycatlady68]

@ThisYoungLibertine Bugger off A Hole..if u don't like em don't watch..it's THAT SIMPLE

[NapalmTheElf]

ok, im straight as a die...but have to say love erasure and this just cracks me up....though poor poor andy got to be freida! poor lad

[bottomsupx]

love the 80's music 

[gairid]

This makes me absurdly happy.

[mankybub]

cool, remember this from when i was a kid

[theblemishedone]

Wow, I really was naive in the '80's...lol...

[alextr75]

a gay pop icon this song. It will never expire! It will play and play forever in all gay & gay-friendly clubs... Such a cool version of the abba song!

[Biguyinpa]

@alextr75 OMG!! They are gay?!?! No way! Next you'll be telling me all my other favorites that grew up listening to and that I always thought were straight are gay also, but I could never believe that, i.e: Boy George Michaels, Ricky Martin, but at least I know Elton John is definately straight!

[drakkondarkspell]

@Biguyinpa *snerk* God, I miss the 80's. It didn't even matter to me back then if they were gay or straight. Might be why I turned out gay. Whatever.  At least the 80's had style.

[duckypam]

That's scary. They look pretty close to the originals.

[2nethi]

Take a chance on me, SBG. I know you were happy to see me then.

[credoneivaldesi]

very very pop-gay he he he so funny!

[rayder303]

its good............

[haga72]

where them from?

[tenphallus]

@haga72 they are british

[rmrooster01]

it was funny watching this. If you were a big ABBA fan, and you have that visual image of them, and then watch this video, its funny.

[katoask123]

I the singer gay? cause if he isn't then wat the crap!

[twolivesintertwined]

@katoask123 uh duh

[DBbeats666]

I have no problem with them dressing up as woman, but did they really have to do each other on the horse?

[srsport]

This is so gay, George Michael would turn around in his grave if he would hear it.

[killerqueen92]

@srsport George Michael isn't dead for one thing. and i don't really thank he would care that much considering this song doesn't involve him at all..

[srsport]

@killerqueen92 Yeah you're right: George Michael is not dead. I guess I meant Elton John.

[killerqueen92]

@srsport yeah i guess so.

[MrAllahWackbar]

@killerqueen92 Why can't you just listen to the music and forget the rest, because George AND Elton are both still alive!

Great song, thumbs up!

[PARISAMIL]

j adoreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee !!!!

[Kelli69]

Why can't I watch ONE Erasure video on youtube without some half-assed ideological "debate" about homosexuality erupting?! shut the hell up already, and just ENJOY THE MUSIC! Who cares who fucks who!?

[paladin313]

@Kelli69 Besides, I don't even think homosexuality was even the point or emphasis in the video to begin with. They were just spoofing things a bit in drag. I mean, what comedian hasn't done something like that to get a laugh or two...even though this was a serious recording and cover of the song. To me, it never entered the picture, and it amazes me how some people like to add in more than what is really there.

[IIIIdepechemodeIIII]

this is without a doubt the worst song i've ever heard, and not to mention two calgary flaming, peter puffing , whack jobs emulating a great group like abba. and to think depeche mode had one of these peckercheckers.

[karaloca]

I can't stand ABBA, but I love this.

[ermayo93]

I believe the Swedes have no problem with this at all. Imitation is indeed the sincerest form of flattery!!!!!!!

[abortiongonewrong]

this great! funny

[byllidefton]

mmm.... q loco sera algo gay?.....jajaja

[lostidentity99]

omg i love this video and song, thanks to this video i got into ABBA love it =)

[blindtommykiller]

OH MY GOD YES!

[PaRaMoRxfreak1413]

[kesun15]

Wow........this video pwns...!

[TheNatalya]

[03D23036]

The Bubble Gum Version.

Thats the thing about Bubble Gum, Its nice, But it dont last.

[poppinfresh79]

[Infernolord]

they look kind of creepy in drag

[eKriZZLe]

wtf....dude...UK....stop sending us this crap. they might as well sang dancing queen.

[MRszwajkowski]

[richardsonjames1971]

[snaredrums123]

0:19

IT'S A TRAP!!!

[ebayfreakonline]

i love this song me and me bessy jane want to stop the car in the middle of the raod and sing it but we ars scared we will get run ova lol love them go girls x

[marcojrmsn]

When I was a child I started to record this video on my VCR and then I decided to cut in the middle and abandon the record.I though with myself: I think I just wanna listen the music in a k7 tape.Too much purpurine to my taste ! LMAO

[wiudiva]

hot sexy girls lol

[34judit]

hahah però que bons, per favor!! xD M'ha costat pillar que eren ells mateixos... =$

[Raura0rz]

My fave Erasure video! Vince looked so beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

[bedazzledcandybar]

Hahahahahahahahahaha! :D

[dentgear]

Yes installing a new kitchen 5 years age on CornWall Ane In Riverside Ca... 35 Beers and 3 helpers was everlasting fun....

[rileygirl100]

I remember hearing this song in the clubs in seattle for the first time. it was so fantastic

[ElderOfTzion]

LOL Erasure rocks! My cousin and I were the only white boys in my junior high and we would play erasure at lunch on the joot box. It was hilarious.

[PLEROMAZERO]

This sucks!!!

[jfw3]

Haha I think Vince Clarke was hotter in drag :P

[texbritfan]

i love this version more than the abba one sorry abba

[theonlyoneW600]

@texbritfan

how can you say that?----

[itsBIJOUXbitch]

@theonlyoneW600  THANK YOU!

[Turtleproof]

@texbritfan You enjoy astonishingly bad things.

[mitomino]

I was wondering what the ABBA members would think about this version... Any idea?

[heydudesup92]

pshhhh

i think this is way better than the abba version though

[NewlyCelebrities]

oh god those girl faces on a guy look terrible

but i like the new voice for the song lol :D

[branmakmorn]

hahahahahaha this is comedy gold!!!

[ekalaka1]

I can't decide which way I like them better, so in this case I'll swing both ways.

[laraghcon]

not usually a fan of cover versions,because i think it shows a lack of imagination.having said that,this is a decent version,and also.was fantastic for the boys to get their only uk no 1 single.

[JAVICARNERO]

That's a very very tall tranny lol, I love ERASURE!!!

[talus007]

LMFAO!! This cover version seems to say:

Come out of the closet and take a chance on me!!

[jacksonclive46]

cool!

[RubyTwilite]

This is such a goof on the original ABBA video. An homage and a diss at the same time!

[Ieraux]

love this! XD

[Whatamidoing09]

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[monizzle22]

There was a band in Louisville, KY in the early 90's called Situation Grey that did this song. They had a female bassist that did the lil rap-type part and she just nailed it. I think I prefered their version to both Erasure and ABBA. Still love all three though!

[xyaqua]

I've heard of them!!!! Never heard them, too bad. Holy cow is that wierd..

[monizzle22]

THAT is weird!! Its a small, small world! And to your second point, I concur, straight guys do make hotter trannies! You can't argue with science ;-)

[lcguy337]

Only Andy Bell is gay the other guy is straight.

[xyaqua]

Straight guys make better looking transvestites.  its a fact.

[vanjafr]

cool!!

[saenzstefgabe]

Love the song, never figured they where gay....happy people!!

[richardsonjames1971]

What a scream!!!

[ozzie136]

erasure the bomb baby!

[beforutwo]

My MP3 player has both ABBA and ERASURE Take A Chance On Me and only smile when the reggae rap comes up. The vidio is so funny that now I will smile even bigger when the song comes up. Thank you guys for putting something great on my MP3 player and for the world to hear.

[ohyder1]

They have a great sense of humour about being gay. Great cover. Their videos are awesome.

[prettyclassy1000]

Woahh!!! This is hilarious! This is better than ABBA!

[JohnXblank]

Song is great, video is kinda creepy.

[m3p14]

ME ENCANTAAAA

[jurney99]

you guys can say whatever they gay, it a very good song, so erasure rock.

[luislievano]

Amigos hay que abrirse a esta gran musica y además sin tabues y convicciones

[boybriendbla]

I heard this in JCPenney today!

[alexnel]

jajaja it's so funny! i love it! the white girl like me!!! jojojo

[MACSMovies]

This one is so good.

[j149833]

Does ABBA know about this shit?

[xyaqua]

ABBA loved this cover, and as well they should!

80's pop is for fun and getting off.

Erasure is all about that!

Xyaqua say: Any cover is a compliment.

[ThePedoBear69]

Yes, and like the guy below said they loved it. Besides, it coulda been worse. Pete Burns coulda done it lol

[2degucitas]

great cover go andy!!

[Runescapesanta]

gay?

[TheBeetsMotel]

Umm fail

[thespookyone65]

i LOVE these guys - but god, they make some unattractive women!!!!

great job, andy & vince!!!

[koito22]

i think this guys could be gay!!!

[PINKluvr28]

my favorite song by erasure!!!!!! i luv andy bell. is vince gay to or what?

[Badaboomly]

haha

sooo gay

xD

[elgreatness]

veeeerrrry

[xyaqua]

this was a fun song when ABBA wrote it, it should be fun, and anything you do with it, as long as you don't hurt anything, it fair game.

hey, our love is strong enough, even when things are rough, for this great song. Gay or straight, this rocks!

[BREN70S]

Does anyone know what abba made of this ??

[xyaqua]

They should be flattered, amused, impressed (well maybe not by the video). Any cover is a tribute, period. This is an awesome song, by an awesome band, and a great cover. It embodies the best of the 80's despite the camp.

[YazooMusic]

The Abba-esque EP spent 5 weeks at #1 in the UK in the Summer of 1992, which led to a revival of interest in ABBA. The "Gold" collection was put together and released later that year, and has gone on to be one of the best selling Greatest Hits albums of all time.

[evilwillhunting]

3:09 Oscar Wilde only *wished* he was this gay.

[simplecruelreal]

ahhh hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahaha

oh wow

[kitefancy]

LOVE IT <3 <3 <3 yes.

[codypendant2084]

WTF? just some GAY GUYS hamming it up! no big whoop! DISCUSSION Chinese opera and female leads! don't bust any brain cells.!!

[insektl0gic]

is there a version of this song without the lame reggae rap?

[electronicafanatic]

No, there isn't. That's part of the song. That's how Erasure made it different.

[hosehoundlova]

sooooo sexy - abba b damned!

[marc4612]

Their both gay idiots

[TheSilentHillFanatic]

Vince isnt gay but andy has gay written all over him.

[wildwunn]

u guys know that these guys are gay and that all of the people in this video are men >.>

[HaloofCurls]

Not all crossdressers are gay. And not every dude who dresses up like a woman is a crossdresser.

[hojofan]

Thanks so much SimplyIrresistable2 for uploading this great song that Erasure did as a cover of ABBA's original version. It's really funky - especially @2:31 - 3:06. I love Erasure. I've been a huge fan for a long time!! :)) Andy Bell is a great singer!! 5 stars!! Peace2U, Kim

[Timeforthaunted]

the blond is hott

[charlyzboy]

But is Vince gay too? I love Erasure all the way from México City, Greetings !!

[sugarve]

sti froci come hanno rovinato la canzone!

[ZNORXtj]

Erasure so kicks ABBA ass, but I love em' both.

[laurosas]

loveeeeee it guys!

[YazDenSaRa]

ha ha ha no way!!!

[Meleenaca]

Lol. I love this vid. But you gotta wonder, are theese guys gay? I mean, dressing up like ABBA for the hell of it. Lol. I'm glad they have a sense of humor.

[Sbanbb]

Like 090909oo09 said ...WHERE IN THAT HELL HAVE YOU BEEN ??? :)

[electronicaguy]

Great video. I'm surprised it hasn't been removed yet. I tried uploading this 3 days ago, and YouTube disabled the video. They said the content was licensed or owned by EMI. I see that you uploaded this on March 09, 2009. I should have tried to upload it then. But I wasn't thinking about it then.

[Hertrude]

LOVE IT!!!

[jinxie34]

i love these guys. andy bell and vince clarke are the absolute best!!!!!

[Chalykushu1]

I can watch this clip over and over again! So funny. Fresh beat and sound to one of my best ABBA songs. ANd the rapper is a verg ood addition. SUPER!!

Thanks for loading this.

[deejuk50]

MAMMA MIA TAKE A BACK SEAT.. Erasure is here

[DiannaBlack]

[Cosima11]
