    go drink your milk of magnesa then go get your 25 cent coffee then go renew your aarp card then be realy carefull that you dont shatter your hip trying to think of something to reply

  • @heterosapian Get a life

  • Don't cover a Beatles song unless it is at least this high quality in creativity.

  • wat

  • last seen working at kwick fit in bootle

    arrhh what a shame

  • KAK!!!!

    

  • i feel the song. :)

  • Great cover ... but the original is better ...

  • Obviously the original is best, no question. At the time this represented a society of British youth that were on Candy flipped, we were cool, we were chilled and nothing bad happened and the world was perfect. From the Beatles point of view they wouldn't argue with that, its the sentiment that counts and the Beatles were never anti gay, they were to busy making music x

  • All people who hate this weren't there. I was. God I shagged some girls. I took some drugs. It was mint. I woke up in a forest with my arms around two topless girls after listening to this. I stayed there the weekend chewing grass and learning the language of cows. You haters will never know.

  • @sabrettes I reckon your ma killed you when you got home from that forest... seeing as you were 12 when this came out.

    Crap cover. Embarrassing then and now.

  • @Bohsbloke you are crap GTFO

  • Fey young Bobsy-twinks on MDMA...after hearing this, I can't help thinking that perhaps Mrs. Miller's cover of YELLOW SUBMARINE wasn't so bad after all. Hell...this shit could send me running into the arms of Claudine Longet's GOOD DAY SUNSHINE for that matter.

  • is it wrong to fancy the singer?

  • I must say this is fkn class,i know you cant ever replace the beatles original but candy flip reproduced this gem with dignity and i think they did it proud

  • shite

  • promo slap stick

  • promo

  • wtf is this?

  • agggghhhhhh I fucking hate this cover.

  • ha ha, good times, great version of an awesome track.... gonna see a slightly older danny and kelv tonight :) Soul Mekanik wOnKiNg the Old Brown Jug. And the beat goes on...

  • WHEN E WAS £20 A POP LOL

  • shitless

  • ethnic print hooded tops.....god,Im gettin old...........

  • one of the most credible beatles covers that has stood the test of time.

  • i love this version to,,,,but the video has buffering problems.....

  • Best Beatles cover, no argument!

  • @tcvicesquad It's a good cover but I thought the Banshees verion of Dear Prudence was better.

  • Yes one of the best covers of this song...love it

  • loved this back then and feel that I should not admit still love it lol

  • great tune, I remember this remixed in clubs in the 90's.

    DAMN this guy is FUGLY though!! I can't watch the video. I'd rather watch Willem Defoe eat shit.

  • @johnhimes69 Most hilarious comment I've read in a long time. Drink everywhere!

  • @johnhimes69 You are negative and an asshole. Peace.

  • i think i met this guy in the south of France, somewhere in 1988/89 , fantastic i ran into it again...

  • This life's only temporary ain't nothing to get hung about!

  • I need a trip. Black dragon anyone......

  • They killed it (that's killed as in "rocked it").

    I still have my old record.

  • Damn I love the beat!!

  • oh my gosh i have been looking for this cover for abt 10 years thanks !!!!!

  • totally match up with leeza77. Still having the original 12´vinyl from back in the days. AWESOME !

  • Loved it when it came out and still love it now

  • fooking epic tune and who can say what john lennon would've thought of this???

  • this is an accurate adaptation. well done - from 2011

  • Comment removed

  • "thediveuk" Im with u 100%!!! these guys was fucking amazing! shame they didnt release any more materiel ..fantastic version! and FUCK U BEATLES fans that are knocking this! i LOOOOVE the beatles! but this was a fantastic cover!!

  • Nothing compared to the original that John Lennon wanted it to be, want a real song? listen to take 1 of the original

  • this is really nice and cool, makes me dream

  • this is like aids, but worse.

  • @danpatmac ...Nice one lol..It,s ok really..(Tounge firmly in cheek)

  • As much as I loathe the guys who originally wrote this song(despise them enough not to name them)Candy Flips' version is the cat's ass!.Loved it when I first heard it circa 91',love it to this very day.

  • I've watched this over 10 times in a row., can't get over how cool it is. 20 years since I got cassette but had never seen the video. The beatles are the greatest song writing act in the 20th century this should be taken as a compliment . Just checked they are now soul mekaniks age has really hit the singer hard but atleast he looks cool and young forever on video.

  • another one of these tunes much like the soup dragons im free . one hit wanders,only made it due to the madchester era lovers at the time loooking for more likewise baggy sounds

  • Definately a sausage jockey. good memories though. (not the sausage jockey bit)

  • @willi7777777777 never saw that purveyor of sausage connection back in the day but fuck you right

  • @johndonato44 just read your comment and almost spat my beer out all over the computer....very funny!

  • MAAAAAAADCHESTER ahhhh the good ole days

  • OI GEZZA SINGING!!!MARRY ME?

  • Not bad, but I prefer the Beatles' cover version

  • good cover version of the Beatles' Strawvberry Fields Forever. Very "dancified" for the masses. Strange video though; but I guess it isn't any stranger than the Beatles' own video for "SFF".

  • Seriously, I think I would not like this song, but yesterday I watched it on weed, and It as just one of the best song I have heard in mine life.

  • It's so hard nowadays to find kids with such good musical taste as this.... Kudos to these kids (whoever they are)

  • I bet he's a pedo

  • I really don't mind the singer, but that other dude, with the stupid hair, I want to kick the shit out of him, he's a total prick

  • Excuse me sir, those are fields of burning candles and books, not strawberrys. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO EAT ANY OF THEM!

  • verrrry trippy! ;)

  • that lad is soooo cute <3

  • 160 people aren't E lightend

  • gay

  • This ruined the song....

  • Takes you right back to when everything was good loooooooooove it x

  • @TheScrapchick27 ,100% agree

  • @TheScrapchick27 Best days ever for sure......peace.

  • @TheScrapchick27  ABSOLUTELY.

  • inspired cover. beatles covers are always an abhomination. but this tender, sassy, sexy, original and fey. i loooooooooooove it!

  • Still my fav!!

  • this version is superior to the Beatles IMHO

  • love the beatles and the accoustic version John lennon did, but this is my favourite cos of the trippy beat suits what John was writing, which I read somewhere was about how he and Paul used to get high sat in this field of strawberries when they were lads.

  • gay

  • Definitely the best version

  • @holydoggy123 Personally i think john lennons acoustic version is actually best :)

  • Kelvin Andrews ( keyboard player) was 2 years below me in the same high school as me . I saw him in a local pub about the time this was on top of the pops someone pointed him out to me because I never actually knew who he was.

  • I had always loved this version of the song (brings back High School memories) but had never seen a video for it. Now that I've seen the video I am very embarrassed.

  • BETTER THAN THE BEATLES, HA

  • This brings me back

  • Reminds me of the "Rainbow Rhythms" class in Peep show

  • Let [Candyflip] take you down cos I'm going to

  • this is just shocking i remember it was bad at the time but i dont remember it being this bad

  • @russ7510 I have never heard this horribleness before and stopped it after 30 seconds.

  • @Tiwaking Fuckin Hippy I don't really mean that but no really ......Fuckin Hippy
