  • nice song...

  • wooow i came here by crass (?) WTF????

  • @Noiseryuu

    crass owns!

  • @Noiseryuu You found a punk song from a punk song and find that somehow odd?

  • @abortedlord not really (?) ^^

  • @Noiseryuu Then I don't get your comment? Crass = Punk, this = Punk. Where's the 'WTF' moment?

  • isnt that dawn french?

  • please gimme a personal ...Jesus?? äääh no...Pharmacist!

  • Why don't you dumbass's insult each other somewhere else if you don't want to comment on the vid. PS you should be ashamed of yourself "workatthefarm" for using dialogue like that it's disgusting

  • @russscience Yes Workthe farmers, your dialogue is Disgusting!. You should be ashamed of yourself. Try beeing a little more aware of the effect your horrid ways are having on the geek community. Your terrible!. Go away forever, n stay away, nasty farmworker.

  • please sig.re contadino e dottor morte,continuate nel vs LUDIBRIUM, is so funny...ciao bravi ragazzi(good boys)!

  • marks e smith is a prick roolz

    

  • some Valium please mr. pharmacist. your music is so awesome

  • @StinkiwinkiPoo If its so Awesome, why the need for Valium?.Valium is used to chill, to nullify. Now why would someone who finds the Fall so Awesome, find the need to nullify thy brain. I would suggest, if your going down the drug gist route, the prescribing of something a little more mood enhancing like something from the Amphetamine derivatives, in order to truley appreciate the Fall in all their glory,Savvy?

  • @StinkiwinkiPoo Hey stinkione. If the Falls music is so Awesome, why would you want Valium, a Benzodiazepine, & a downer in order to help you appreciate the subtleties of the Fall?.If you are to go down the drug-gist route, there are many better families of goodies to use in order to enhance your Fallist experience.Why not try the Amphetamine family, a much friendlier version, in order to beautify your listening experience.

  • 2:04 is my favorite

  • 0:31 Holy shit its gene hunt!

  • Is there anyone who still hasn't heard 'Cheap Space Chant' ?

    In YouTube, search for 'Timekode, Mark E Smith'

    and listen to the strangest and best MES/Fall

    collaboration of them all...

  • I always worry when a band tries to remake a great song like when Pearl Jam butchered the Dead Boy's "Sonic Reducer". It is risky trying to improve one of the best punk songs of all time. However, in this case, the remake works very well. While the video leaves much to be desired, the song works very well and worth saving for future enjoyment.

  • Has anyone got The Fall Phoenix 1995-07-14 + Lomax, Liverpool 1994-01-20 DVD they could share, be immensely grateful. cheers

  • anonymous name-calling.. really kills the buzz of some great music

  • Great video of a terrific song. First time ive seen this one. Thank you for posting it.

  • should be called The Fail because it's fucking horrible

  • @workatthefarm well farmlabouring peasant, you may think its f___ng horrible, but you are the one who fell fell from grace, as in from heaven. Keep on shuvelling shit on the farm!

  • @MegaKevorkian well, failed child with the blank channel, you would die after a matter of weeks without farms.

  • @workatthefarm You would die after a week, without getting on your benighted knees, worshipping the Fall, with the rest of the shit shovelling peasants! Ever heard of George Orwell?. Maggies Farm?.

  • @MegaKevorkian I like the Dragnet by the Fall.

  • @workatthefarm Do you really, shit shovelling, rural, farm peasant!. So do I actuually, but I dont think we are in the same league somehow!. Stick to shagging sheep, n sucking sheep dogs penisis, whilst occassionally, taking in Fall lyrics, sado Bastardo!. Oh I love illiterate heathens like yourself!. XXXX

  • @MegaKevorkian If I didn't shovel shit on the farm, you had to do it, and yo wouldn't get any food either, loser. Urban boy, I would tear up your arse if ya came to the farm with my massive bear cock.

  • @workatthefarm So, AS WELL AS BEING IN TO BESTIALITY, YOUR A FARMERS HAND POOFTER AS WELL!

  • @MegaKevorkian I'll shovel the shit right into your eyes, string you up a tree, and gut you without remorse.

  • @workatthefarm You poor deluded shit shovelling, sheep shagger, you wont be doing anything of the sort, Asshole!Your dialogue is declining, wanker! XXX

  • @MegaKevorkian I'll still shovel the shit into your eyes.

  • @workatthefarm Yes farm working idiot peasant, thats what you repeated last time, sheep shagging , bestiall moron,Do you have anything more to contribute, ?, poor illiterate idiot!

  • @MegaKevorkian I fucked a dog in the arse and it farted on my cock.

  • @workatthefarm lol, Have you watched the video Animal Farm, where a hunchback is shaggin a pig?

  • @MegaKevorkian No, what is it like?

  • @MegaKevorkian Can you be my galfriend?

  • @workatthefarm Afraid not My marital status would not allow, n secondly, Im not into getting a sex change op 4 your sakes.Persevere, n see what happens on dating websites.Again,goodluck!

  • @MegaKevorkian I don't know of any dating sites and they are crap, they just make me pay alot of shit for nothing.

  • @workatthefarm Why dont you go back to counselling., & computer dating. I hear the N.H.S, have some bargains on at the mo.

  • @MegaKevorkian Why do you give in so much pleasure in believing yourself to have the upper hand?

  • @workatthefarm Your use of the English language, is both rudimentary, and full of bad grammar!. Why don't you rephrase your last comment so it actually makes some sense!, THEN PERHAPS SOMEONE CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE ON ABOUT.

  • @MegaKevorkian It's fully understandable. Now, do not play the idiot game again.

  • @MegaKevorkian You didn't even answer the question. Your English must be really fucking atrocious.

  • @MegaKevorkian What kind of a Fall's fan goes around playing the vigilante game on one of their most exploited songs on YouTube? I think you're just a little queen, aren't you?

  • @MegaKevorkian You form replies that are extremely influenced by my username. Very witty, MegaKevorkian, very witty indeed. Now, I cannot really find something funny to say about your idiotic sci-fi username. Let's just say you're one of the closet-homosexual queens that run around everywhere, tainted by insecurity and the infamous inferiority complex, LOL. "WHEEE, LOOK AT ME, I'M PROBABLY GAY, THAT'S WHY I GOT AN ERECTION FROM STARING AT DADDY'S CROTCH, WHEEE".

  • @workatthefarm You are so backward in your silly isles, not only cant you get a girlfriend, or refrain from bestial activities on the farm, you don't even have the presence of mind to know who the infamous Dr Kevorkian is, you backward twat!

  • @MegaKevorkian Why are you still going on about farms and animals? Do you need help to calm down? I can help you there, BY SMASHING YOU OVER THE HEAD WITH A CLAW HAMMER. Dr. Kevorkian? Do you know who Steven Jesse Bernstein is then?

    What fucking isles are you on about now? WHAT FUCKING ISLES.

  • @MegaKevorkian "Bestiall"? Here you come, typing like a fucking degenerate midget, and you DARE moan about my grammar in the English language?

  • @workatthefarm Stay on your little islands, Farm Boy, where you have close proximity to your farm animals!. You're such a loser, you cant even get a girlfriend!, or even earn enough money to go on a computer dating site!.

    As ive previously mentioned, I'm a married man, I'm 48, my wife is 29. Nothing doubtful about my sexuality, I'm no bestial looser like yourself. Consider your wankself, totally ignored. Now do one, n Fuck off! Farm Boy

  • @MegaKevorkian Hahahahaha 48 years old and nothing better to do than moan about farms and animals on the internet.

  • @MegaKevorkian I've had a girlfriend or two, I hit her over the head and shoved her face into the wall.

  • @MegaKevorkian Wow, I just fingered a cat in it's arse!

  • Respond to this video... Yes, your simpleton use, and grasp of the English language is fucking appalling, Fart dog Farm Boy, Go fuck another, or wank yourself stupidly blind!

  • @MegaKevorkian My thumbs are tingling when I think of gouging out your cataract-covered milky 48 year old eyes.

  • @workatthefarm hillarious! ja ja ja! Best band in the world bar none!

  • @hektorpike ja ja ja? are you a retard?

  • @workatthefarm hah, "a retard"! what a lovely term. I'd rather be sayin shit like "ja ja ja" as opposed to ridiculous, moronish terms such as "retard". And no, I am not mentally challenged in anyway, but thanks for the heads up anyway! i'll be sure not to use "ja ja ja" again. Wouldn't want "people" thinking I'm a "retard" now, would I?

    Oh, BTW - Ja ja ja ja! Fucking fuck tard...

  • To much middle of the road noise pollution? Purge your soul with The Fall, the mighty Fall.

  • The classic Fall "Radio Shack" megaphone period - time to bring it back I reckon

  • @thenewfella1994 Oh, its the newfella, peasant, again. Fuck me, where do all these proletariate, idiots come from.Glad you find me an annoying snob. You take the bait so easily, no mark!Make my day, Come on, reply again!Creep

  • It's bullshit, but without the art.

  • pavement didn't rip off the fall after listening to the fall the only thing they did was conduit for sale which was a homage

  • So what if it sounds too much like original.Sounds like you need some medecine!

  • @MegaKevorkian

    If it sounds too much like original, it's pointless. Can't you understand ? You don't need some medecine, you need some logic in your brain, wouldn't hurt.

    The Fall have made much better cover songs.

  • @confidz I agree that the Fall have better covers (i.e. all the Monks covers). On the other hand, the original version of this song was so damn good that I think it was best not to stray too far from it, plus it fits the Fall aesthetic without any tweaking. I don't necessarily disagree with you, just approaching the topic from a different angle. Cheers, mate!

  • commenting on a fall (band) is to trangrate evolutions grip on de rock,as modern is not an art world preconception,lacking education and value ,I will vomit originality.

  • Listen to the Other Half's original from the 60's, great too.

  • @melitosse the best. this one is good cover, really cool, but they didnt give anything new, very similar to original. I like video very much!

  • you cant beat Fall videos,, there so tacky and confusing ! especially the ones from the eighties, but who cares cos the music is always interesting and is usually filled with amazing unconventional lyrics. thanks for the upload : )

  • great

  • @MrsGenitals  You really are a miserable,boring little cunt with no fucking friends,and no fucking life.Reply back soon you fucking pussy!

  • @MrsGenitals Who's we you dumb fuck,stop hitting reply so much.You are a stupid fucking moron,troll!great fucking screen name though.

  • Frank skinner.

  • Good to see Leigh Bowery in excellent health here!

    never undersestimate the power of a fall........

  • LOVE TO FUCK BRIX

  • @MrsGenitals Dude if you hate the Fall so much why did you look this up or add your hateful bullshit comment?Jerk off!

  • @MrsGenitals your fucking deaf then m8

  • cracking song/LP but i do think brix leaving the fall was a blessing.

  • hey mr pharmasaist,show me d way 2 the fukin dangerous drugs cabinet

  • SUBLIME COVER BY A SUBLIME BAND ...THE FALLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!

    mrs genitals suck in my dingdong!!!!!

  • Playing in NZ, Fall in a Hole

  • I used to listen a lot to that oneabout he looking for a motorbyke. I listened to Fall in John Peel showin Berlin in 1981. I don't remember what was called. Anyway this one song original : The Other Half , pioneer rock garage band 0f 1965/66.Faboulous , sligtly like Sky Saxon and The Seeds,

  • I love The Fall too, but wouldn't they be better considered 'bullshit, without the art'? LOL They've done it ALL, and should get much more respect than so many others that have tried and died along the way. The Fall are always rising to set the standards. :)

  • LOVE THIS! more rock to the people!! if you like this song you might be into something like kiss me scarlett with the song mad man... check it out here on the tube..

  • this actually made my boss become a pharmacist, allegedly! Who knows what lurks behind the door of that dispensary eh

  • leigh bowery

  • leigh bowery

  • I love this cover tune. I always thought the Fall wrote it - but it still rocks out!

  • Mr. Pharmacist best careers 2009

  • fist fucker

  • I like to find things like this...

  • Mr Mark E Smith rocks like f**k. I saw him on Calton Hill, during the Edinburgh "festival" in a giant tent whenever. Two drummers, Brix Smith on Bass. Mr ME Smith disappears from the stage-"Where has he gone?". Suddenly we hear shouting at the back of the audience, "You're a f**kin shit band, rubbish, boo. F**kin c**t shit of a band" and Mr Mark E Smith wanders through the audience,he has been shouting this on his microphone.LOL. Then he jumps back on stage and continues a rockin' show...

  • @andinoble yeah, and so what!. we ave all been to fall gigs, some better than others.do we really want to know what you thought about it?so this is what it sounds like, the fall are great, peasants with free milk, timpage!, ha

  • @MegaKevorkian I know, a shocking comment of mine. I apologise to you personally for expressing my opinion.

  • @andinoble And so you should be, procrastinating, hero worshipping, Fall fan. Repetition, as is all I hear, past, present, n future clutterrish comments avail, as with so many of thy ilke!

  • @MegaKevorkian You know your Fall. Good reference.

  • @MegaKevorkian I'm a tad jealous. I'm a Canadian so I've never been to a Fall gig.

  • @FallFanCan No need to be a tad jelous my Canadian Cousin.Im sure the Fall will eventually get around to playing at a place near you sometime soon.Hey, merry xmas matey, not just for John Quays eh?

  • @MegaKevorkian Thanks mate.

  • Thanks for upploading this. Great song. I love the video.

  • Mark E Smith is the Salford Bard, a literary genius of our times. Play on in heaven.

  • @johnnycheck99

    fuck me he aint died as he?

    heaven? as if!

  • 0:48 and 0:52

  • Pretty annoying.

  • The best thing about this video has to be the little sign on the fence that reads "It is windy". Offhand and completely random.

  • Mr. Pharmacist He taketh away Give me a pill to replace the energy drained by blood-sucking parasites I'm in such pain, Mr Pharmacyst! They took my money stole my honey Give me a prescip for 3yrs blues caused it just ain't funny Mr. fascist pharamashit
  • pretentious

  • Heigh ho! Love the song, but the video annoys me.

  • Comment removed

  • hallo Jaco leef je nog? groetjes uit Rotterdam

  • Their art was not to conform, wasn't it?

  • art that conforms can't be art, can it?

  • Wouldn't that depend on ones own definition of art?

  • everyones art is not to conform, so really, arent they all conformists??? dont get me wrong i think this music kicks ass, but i hate all these poseurs who think theyre cool because they have original ideas. ok cool, but ive heard original ideas before so what is really original? how come i cant call myself a native american if i was born in america and i LOVE my country. sorry haters.

  • you pretentious little fucking prick you sound like an artist now well at least as pretensious as one !!! hahahahah youtube philosophy get a life you fucking looser

  • you don't know me!!! i'm not pretentious, never had any pretentions, never wanted any, but YOU pretent you know about me! i'm not "little" (i'm 5'11), i have a "prick" but it doesn't define me.. and i sound like an artist because like THE FALL (who i assume you like) i am an artist (saxophone, freestyle, etc)... if you don't respect that your whole perspective is whack....

    i will "get a life" because i work towards my goals. obstacles (like your nasty comments) are there for me to overcome :-)

  • @adamndirtyshame you do wank on... :)

  • 60s cover

  • Mark E ( pure Genius )

  • @timeofthemumph

    May be, but I never understood him...

  • Болес'...

  • I love The Fall. It's art, but without the bullshit.

  • Man, that's the best description I've ever heard for The Fall.........

  • Thank you. There is something vital about them, something which says 'this is life!'. And thats good art I reckon.

  • ahah damn straight

  • Brilliantly put! it really is art without the pretentious shit

  • @subscooby

    Indeed.

  • @subscooby So true!

  • Sorry, this was not Leigh's first 'full' tv appearance. That would have been (in the whole of the UK} the Tube. Where he showed Jools and Paula his arse out knickers. happy days. I was so thrilled when Leigh got arty with my favourite band !

  • Also, Leigh's first full TV appearance, made in heaven !

  • don't worry people ..Mark E is god, and all will bow before him....or else !

  • 1:18-1:32 Nice Solo !

  • I was a kid when I saw these videos, ironically no one in my generation knows who The Fall is. Sad.

  • join the club. :(

  • 'He is not appreciated', as the man himself sang...

  • but he was definately THE hip preist.

  • one more thing, looking for Fall fans from UVA circa 85--Lee Walke are you out there?

  • Better call Stephen Malkmus for an invite and Lee's phone number.

  • btw i still have all the originals on vinyl. so shall we rave about that?

  • yes you have to have been alive then to know that the Fall is post-punk, outstanding, and one of the best bands of the 80's. sometimes i want to slap all those youngsters silly...and enjoy my Mark E. tranquillement.

  • GOD if it was only so easy to watch a good clip here on this site and enjoy and not have to read the comments it could almost be perfect , but impossible.

    I wish that viewers who leave comments of such a passionate nature would really do their homework first.

    This was not punk or new wave.

    This was post punk.

    All rules defied.

    Hard to explain to anyone who wasn't alive yet or had nothing to compare ,but still that isn't the point.

    Briefly and lastly , a rave up would have been the antithesis.

  • commited77, i cannot get any sleep since i read your comment..you really broke my heart. Such a bad language..three legs?...scary...

  • mmm...

  • Comment removed

  • you cant even get good cough medicine from the chemist anymore

  • Not if you distil it.

  • distilled cough mixture....rock and roll

  • one of my fav pink/indie bands of the 70s

  • That's half the point - you cannot categorize genius.

  • better stock me up for the wintertime!!

  • This song was recorded in the 1960's by a garage band called The Other Half.

  • yup, this a good cover of the original

  • Fuckin claims direct

  • yeh was a 60's psych/garage punk tune! the fall do those kind of covers well

  • Never new it was a cover of another bands song, u live and learn!!

  • mark e smith..is the only one that see's us in our 'true form'..

  • i've never heard such shit in my life...unless you're being facetious, of course...

  • I read so many comments about the 77-to 87 era arguing the point if a band is punk or alternative or whatever. Like the late, great, tragic Johnny Thunders said, "I hate that word punk. It's all rock n roll." He was so fucking right. I hate when people think of bands like Television, Blondie, the Ramones as punk. With the exception of Television its fucking rock and roll. If you want to spit on people then you can make a case for punk. I just call that fucking disgusting.

  • I asked Mr Smith to plat this song at the Lemon Tree in Aberdeen a few years back.

    He said 'Fuck off'

    Lovely man.

  • @sc00ny my mate was in mark E's presence years ago when someone asked him to sign the back of his t-shirt on which he obliged by writing "I am a Mong" perfect!!

  • @sc00ny

    I suppose if you had asked him to play..... it would have ended up different.

  • @sc00ny

    During the Infotainment Scan tour, at their show in San Francisco their tour bus read 'SHOVE OFF '

  • best band ever

  • saw em at the Ritz in like...1987 i think, loved em then love em still. i remember brix at the lead of the stage looking amazing and mark walking around behind the drums mostly lol...that was fine, we were all watching brix!
