Why dont they pay me more ? coz your not a whore. Why dont you complain about things that matter like why dont you complain about the wankers that run shitty council and the dirty streets
oh is it because they wouldnt let you sing this shit outside council house if you complained about something meangfull as long as the points are not too sharp for the shity council you can sing away
Psychology Today has an article that mentions this choir! Go to their website and look in a blog titled, The Squeaky Wheel for a story about complaints choirs
Typical British complaining: grumble over nothing really, and fail to make actual complaints about real issues: government cuts, the NHS, pensions....
It may be done for fun, but why not tackle these at the same time?
I once made a complaint about the management of EMA by the woeful Student Loans Company, after hearing so many of my childrens' friends grumble about it for weeks. I was told by the head of StudentFinance NI that I was the ONLY person in Northern Ireland to actually complain!!!
I love you Birmingham ^_^ Even if there are SO many things wrong with you. <3
Brum is like a 2 legged 15 year old dog with only one eye. You've grown up with it and in your heart you love it, but other people have trouble seeing its beauty. It's also wearing one of those horrible poodle jackets, you know the ones. To represent how many goddamn billboards noone wants to see there are x.x
I was going to reply to your comment anyway: in all fairness, all of our problems are relative. I'm sure we all know that it seems to be human nature at the moment to complain whatever our lot in life! Even though we *know* things could be worse ...
@Conway79 everyone needs catharsis sometimes mate. Problems exist is everyone's lives, and this is a fantastic idea which allows a creative way to get it out. Cheer up :-)
@Conway79 dead right, you don't hear them complaining do you? my reply to he line "and I'm thirsty" is get a drink doh! and "dead bananas" don't exist lol
@Conway79 At least they're channelling their fussing into something more positive, unlike some who just... complain.
And there are always those who are lesser fortunate than us, so why don't we just lament all day long whilst doing nothing else? I think it's a great idea.
...
Living people gotta live, have a smile at their steam, and get over it.
@Zellophine and @mgrh001 I agree completely. My comment wasn't against the concept of the complain choir, or the nature of their complaints. I think it's a great idea. I'm just saying, there exists people with real problems and no such outlet for them.
@Conway79 Thank you for your polite reply, I understand what you meant - no offence taken, I hope.
I do wish that developing countries would have enough community strength to form a complaints choir to voice out their own worries. Before that, we'd just have to make do with our more minor fusses.
@Conway79 So you've never complained about anything in your life? You've never thought anything was done poorly and could be improved on because you're constantly happy you don't live in severe poverty? I doubt it.
I feel you're missing the humour in this choir, also. :/
@Conway79 I thought the whole point of it was that it was supposed to be trivial complaints, not complaints about serious issues. Although some serious ones do get in there.
@Conway79 I live in a third world country and guess what... Our complaints choir sings about things like late buses too. We do not sing about war, about death, about killings. No need to remind us. Perspective! Please...
ALL are great and show the diversity of humans wonderfully. I enjoy their faces, love the different styles and forms of songs and find the localness of the lyrics funny! I'm glad they mostly speak of their own lives not the state of their country. (I couldn't pick who's better: Ljubiliana, Copenhagen, Florence, St. Petersburg...awesome stuff!-)
And besides Birmingham had the balls to do it first and in a rather small group.
Jesus people that is kinda ridiculous you should wake up and see what real problems are! Some people starve and dont even have water. Beer too expensive, you are a shame!!! It only shows us that life is to good on your side. We can only hope that not all People in your country like you.
Man you are stupid. Seriously, shoot yourself or something. Point in this was to bring "into daylight" regular problem of regular people. Also, those guys without "even water" can be even happier than these people, happines isn't about how fatal some problems may be, or how much more "real" your everyday problems are. This guy complaining about his beard not growing may be unhappier about it than some african about not been able to eat in two days... Good video naming everyday problems!
Depends on how you look at it. My statement is, that there's no point in trying to make other people feel guilty for the reason they ARE able to eat even twice a day.
"Hey, you deserve no beard 'cause african people are starving and you are not!"
O goodness. It's so obvious u guys have nothing to complain abt. The song is devoid of any real complaints abt the place. There are far worse places w worse complaints. Gees.
This is great! My friend's dad has this on cd and he used to play this when he drove us to school.What a feeling :D The fact that they aren't ultimate talented singers,is the one that makes this great.
Hi Birmingham singing people! I hope to visit Birmingham somteime and strongly hug each of you! Especially a man who's rapping :)Great song! TYVMuch :)
I grew up in Brum & lived there till I was 20. I go back about once a month for family & am always surprised how empty the place is, there's absolutely no reason to stay. I think I'd top myself if I had to move back.
back in brum for christmas, this place is a fucking hole, scummy people everywhere, tramps skinking of piss on the bus while a chav plays baby cakes of his nokia, corporate town centre without a shred of identity and im far from racist but there are tones of asians - (not the good kind either jap.chin, just the ones that say innit and you know what i mean all the time)
Oh my gosh I'm sorry but I think this is pretty funny. I wish I lived closer to b'ham sometimes because there isn't much to do when you live an HOUR AWAY. Imagine a town where there are no big name concerts ever. You have to drive to guess where- b'ham. lol. and btw no wonder people are so stressed out they complain all the time. what the crap?
birmingham isnt shit, its just boring as fuck. just glad i dont live in warsaw or wolves. or fucking solihull. you think birminghams shit? it is, and its not even the second city anymore. thats manchester. but still rather live in birmingham.
CelticPowerRanger- except that by population Birmingham is the second city. Towns like Oldham, Bolton and Rochdale are clearly separate from the City of Manchester. Greater Manchester has about the same population as the West Midlands conurbation but the city of Birmingham is considerably more populous than the city of Manchester.
Too bad they slagged fat women, could have said filthy rich instead. People so often use body size as a metaphor for I do not know what. I really appreciate fat people, if only because i notice these little slights in society and I wonder...it's that obsolete "alliance" we create around a perceived "mutual oppression" that gives us permission to perpetuate our own garbage in the name of "free" creativity...oh did I do something bad, boring...
I am looking for footage on DeCori Birmingham. He is a former college football player who played running back for the Arkansas Razorbacks. He has signed as a rookie free agent with the Carolina Panthers.
The Birmingham Liberation Army has declared an economic war on ' celebs ' otherwise known as self important twats { think Clarkson } who mock our city and our people. Boycott anything these people are involved in.
I'm sure a visit to Britain's Second city will make you lot in Brum complain even more now we officially have that crown that is if the results of that BBC poll are anything to go by.
personally i like birmingham much more now than i did before, don't know what wrong with them. that's probably y in a city of nearly 2 million people they only got about twenty in their choir
ohh its soo amazing:) i really liked it. i like that they are complaining in a song. there are a lot of things what are so annoying but you just cant tell it because nobody will understand your problem with it cause its soo little and you cant change it.And they could tell it in this way. they have made a song for it...i like it:)
stop moaning via song you guardian reading green yummy mummy metrosexual stay at home belle and sebastian fans with nice hair o I bet you love banksy and amnesty. A cynic? Me?
pfft I dont care about helsinki, that girl with her brown hair pulled back looks like an angel. Shes so cute, wherever this place is I need to move there, how could you complain about anything with people who look like that around.
I have to say... I liked the Helsinki Complaints Choir better. But this is funny also! I love this idea about complaints choirs. (And why do you all "positive people" have to COMPLAINT about this?! You're missing the whole point!)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
There isnt a city on the planet without problems but I cannot see the point of this. If it is meant to be light- hearted, then the choreography is useless anyway. It has its problems but Birmingham has a lot to be proud of. And half of these 'complaints' have nothing to do with the place itself anyway.
mousiez- Well the reason I take it seriously is that thousands of people are seeing this and will get a purely negative idea about Brum. I can have a laugh, but this is'nt really funny anyway. It might be funny if it ryhmed (ive probably spelt that wrong) I am for optimism. What is wrong with that?
well, it's really not fair to anyone who did this to nit pick about every little thing that someone thinks should be in this. THIS WAS DONE FOR FUN, that is all, I mean, hello, I don't exactly sit here thinking 'Why doesn't it all rhyme?', I sit here laughing, and really enjoying it. It's funny, has a good tune, and doesn't NEED choreography...
that would just make it look stupid, which I am sure you would complain about,too.
Well, your complaints aren't particularly amusing either, but you're inflicting them on the thousands of people who are viewing this. Unless the city of Birmingham is paying you to be their PR agent, I'd suggest not assuming that anyone is basing a serious opinion of the city on this. It'd do wonders for your blood pressure.
joiless-Well I forget about this ages ago- so the question is who is the one really worked up. Obviously you, since you have went out of your way to write that comment because you cannot tolerate other peoples views. And, no I have no connection to Birmingham City Council. I do not regret what I wrote; think what you want about me- I am an optimist and a happy person. Best wishes!!
By the way, joiless and all my other critics, I wasn't aware that not having the same sense of humour as you was a crime. Perhaps someone should arrest me for not laughing?
Actually, I'm not particularly worked up. I just find your arrogance particularly unwarranted; saying that you're whining about a video on Youtube for the good of the people who are watching is just ridiculous. What I think is that you're an unwarranted pest, and mocking people like you is just one of my hobbies.
joiless- So are you suggesting that if someone posts a video on youtube, the feedback comments must be only positive? You are simply calling my opinions 'arrogant' because you don't agree with them. And what makes you think that I am the only person who doesn't like this. Sure, I may be a minority but that doesn't make my opinions invalid. I wasn't rude about the video- I just don't like it. And as I only initially posted one comment, im hardly whining.
I think i need to make my own song about the good things in like, you have a computer and a job there is a bus for you to catch, and food in your mouth so get the hell over yourself, hard'en thew f**k up
Maybe these guys should stop wasting time complaining and making groups of other people to complain and go out into the world and fix a few of there problems, Whats wrong with looking on the brighter side of life, makes things alot better
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I agree jasnodo. This is probably meant to be light-hearted and I dont want to be accused of 'being too serious' but Brum is a great city and these people are sending out the wrong message. For goodness sake its the second city; they should be more open minded and stop looking at just the bad things.
Oh wow. Ultimate tribute to First World Problems.

Birmingham is the best - this people are simply ungrateful and should go to London and then complain about expensive beer and congestion!!!

The Birmingham Liberation Army has declared an economic war on ' celebs ' otherwise known as self important twats { think Clarkson } who mock our city and our people. Boycott anything these people are involved in.

Stop complaining and think yourself lucky your not a starving child in Africa.

Not many people complaining in Birmingham, huh? The other choirs (e.g. Helsinki, Chicago, Hamburg) are much larger and stronger.

A great idea and a great opportunity to make serious comment in a comedic way... wasted through poor execution.
foetufoster 4 years ago
they look like a very cheerful bunch of complainers that decided one drunken night that it would be funny to have a complaining choir.
Birmingham is GREAT! and it's inhabitants do have a sense of humour, this is a testament to it.

pfft I dont care about helsinki, that girl with her brown hair pulled back looks like an angel. Shes so cute, wherever this place is I need to move there, how could you complain about anything with people who look like that around.

I have to say... I liked the Helsinki Complaints Choir better. But this is funny also! I love this idea about complaints choirs. (And why do you all "positive people" have to COMPLAINT about this?! You're missing the whole point!)

There isnt a city on the planet without problems but I cannot see the point of this. If it is meant to be light- hearted, then the choreography is useless anyway. It has its problems but Birmingham has a lot to be proud of. And half of these 'complaints' have nothing to do with the place itself anyway.
CULAVE 4 years ago
it's sad that you can't see the fun in this. Choreography? WHERE?
I think you take life too seriously, this is one of my favorite clips to watch
mousiez 4 years ago
mousiez- Well the reason I take it seriously is that thousands of people are seeing this and will get a purely negative idea about Brum. I can have a laugh, but this is'nt really funny anyway. It might be funny if it ryhmed (ive probably spelt that wrong) I am for optimism. What is wrong with that?
CULAVE 4 years ago
well, it's really not fair to anyone who did this to nit pick about every little thing that someone thinks should be in this. THIS WAS DONE FOR FUN, that is all, I mean, hello, I don't exactly sit here thinking 'Why doesn't it all rhyme?', I sit here laughing, and really enjoying it. It's funny, has a good tune, and doesn't NEED choreography...
that would just make it look stupid, which I am sure you would complain about,too.
mousiez 4 years ago
Well, your complaints aren't particularly amusing either, but you're inflicting them on the thousands of people who are viewing this. Unless the city of Birmingham is paying you to be their PR agent, I'd suggest not assuming that anyone is basing a serious opinion of the city on this. It'd do wonders for your blood pressure.
joiless 4 years ago
joiless-Well I forget about this ages ago- so the question is who is the one really worked up. Obviously you, since you have went out of your way to write that comment because you cannot tolerate other peoples views. And, no I have no connection to Birmingham City Council. I do not regret what I wrote; think what you want about me- I am an optimist and a happy person. Best wishes!!
CULAVE 4 years ago
By the way, joiless and all my other critics, I wasn't aware that not having the same sense of humour as you was a crime. Perhaps someone should arrest me for not laughing?
CULAVE 4 years ago
Actually, I'm not particularly worked up. I just find your arrogance particularly unwarranted; saying that you're whining about a video on Youtube for the good of the people who are watching is just ridiculous. What I think is that you're an unwarranted pest, and mocking people like you is just one of my hobbies.
joiless 4 years ago
joiless- So are you suggesting that if someone posts a video on youtube, the feedback comments must be only positive? You are simply calling my opinions 'arrogant' because you don't agree with them. And what makes you think that I am the only person who doesn't like this. Sure, I may be a minority but that doesn't make my opinions invalid. I wasn't rude about the video- I just don't like it. And as I only initially posted one comment, im hardly whining.
CULAVE 4 years ago
If you can't see the point of them complaining, I camnnot see the point of you complaining.

Maybe these guys should stop wasting time complaining and making groups of other people to complain and go out into the world and fix a few of there problems, Whats wrong with looking on the brighter side of life, makes things alot better

I agree jasnodo. This is probably meant to be light-hearted and I dont want to be accused of 'being too serious' but Brum is a great city and these people are sending out the wrong message. For goodness sake its the second city; they should be more open minded and stop looking at just the bad things.
