This video just proves that Scottish men with big ears can be,not only intelligent but cool too.

@hypoguess McGee isn't a Scot. He's an Irish Scot.

Can somebody please tell me what's the name of the song at the beginning of the video? I searched on Google those lyrics but I can't seem to find it.

@dedakin The song is "The Beat Hotel" by Biff Bang Pow! (Alan Mcgee's own band). From the album "Waterbomb" which is available on I Tunes (and no doubt elsewhere).

@intestinal100 Oh, I can't believe I actually got the answer, I thought no one will know and this video has only 3.611 views so I thought I won't get the answer in million years. Thank you sooooo much!

[intestinal100]

@dedakin Actually, I should point out that the version of "The Beat Hotel" on the Waterbomb album is a different one featuring a female vocalist. I can't remember if the original vinyl albums had the male vocal version on them.

The important thing but also a sad one is that Independnt labels were never quite independent... maybe a very tiny group of these managed to survive in massive hostile mainstream industry but most were very much ambitious turning into new majors - which in the end happened one way or the other... distribution deals helped this impression the most...

Creation Records are as important as Sun Studios, George Martin,The Wall of Sound, and the guy who wrote songs for the Goombay Dance Band... They are the fuckin business. God Bless Them.
