Missing - Terry Hall Blair and Anouchka

[uszoninyc]

I've never seen the video for this, though I've love the song for years. Funny, how you make a little 'movie' in your mind.

I've always loved the extremely talented Mr. Hall. He can take such maudlin, sad - sometimes over-the-top ideas, images, and craft these beautifully catchy, stick-in-your-brain songs.

I loved the T, B & A period. The output was - I think - the highest output, of his, where - no matter how sad the tunes were, the music is wonderfully crafted pop.

That's what I call Beautiful People.

[anouchkagroce20009]

Where you get that black baby in this music video? I never see it before.

[emimusicgirl2011]

Hey, where is Missing on emimusic? Never mind is just 2009 July.

[tracyweaver100]

What the hell? My youtube acount is anoucha272 or Anoucha Cherry Red.

[tracyweaver100]

Why they put them on emimusic do they know that they are from Cherry Red Records and don't belong in places like that. Especially with Crowded House!!!! Oh my gosh that's so mean!!!

Jerry Sadowitz who appeared in Terry Blair&Anouchka's video of Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes, complained that this video infringed upon his copyright. Jerry's been replaced.

It has taken 5 months to do this!

Although angry with Jerry, I am also grateful because, I would have never learned Adobe After Effects and graphic animation. So thank you Jerry!

Jerry has been replaced by a number of colourful characters! Marc Bolan even makes an appearance! Bet he won't complain??!!!

[anouchkagroce20009]

@blairbooth Hey beautiful people get yourselves ready and why you take abow. Listen Beautiful People song by the way please upload Beautiful People song I really loved that.

[specials10]

[specials10]

Would you do another song ever with Terry again?Just seen him along with another legend Paul Weller in Turin last Thursday.They were both fantastic.A nice piano ballard would be Great.I liked Ultra Modern Nursery rhymes.It was a happy song.The world needs more not less of this quality.Seems, there is always someone putting the spanner in...Reckon Terry Hall would be so cool to work with:)))))))))))))))))))))))))­))))

[blairbooth]

@specials10 I would love to work with Terry again! I learned more from working with him than anyone else. he has a great dry wit, and made me laugh alot.

Oh by the way, i have a plan to get the vid of ultra modern nursery rhymes back up on youtube! i won't be beaten!

Blair

[specials10]

@blairbooth Great stuff Blair.Keep doing what you are doing now.You are lovely and God really loves you!:)))))))))))))))))))))))))­))

[chocksawaycharlie]

[blairbooth]

@chocksawaycharlie

I bet you thought I'd FORGOTTEN?!!!! Been learning Adobe After Effects.....Illustrator...the list goes on! I am right at the end of eliminating Jerry Sadowitz...And Guess what? I got my own back....you'll see! Very soon now!

[blairbooth]

@blairbooth It's up!!!! Finally! Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes!

[MOONST0MP]

@specials10 Do you reckon? he comes across as been a right miserable twat to me, The Specials were great, Terry , Lynval and Nevile were so wrong to leave and form Fun botty three, what a fuckin Joke, this is the only decent record he has done since The Specials.

[MOONST0MP]

I loved this song when it first came out, it reminds me of shovelin shit on a buildin site when I first left school in 1989. its a great song, definately the best Terry Hall has done apart from The Specials stuff.

[blairbooth]

I'm still reeling over Jerry Sadowitz having the Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes taken off Youtube. And EMI? Have you been to their Youtube link? Well they just bombard you with promoting their new artists, can't find anything else! They don't even have a search engine. Funny how record companies get away throttling you with imposing banners all over myspace. Doesn't seem fair....

[katoness]

@blairbooth its terrible. What a dick Sadowitz is! I bought the single when it first came out. Have always wanted to see the video. What a bleeding shame. Chin up people!

[voodooru]

@blairbooth  fuck Jerry SADowitz. he's just a SAD bitter asshole.

[blairbooth]

I've written to Jerry Sadowitz....he said he's going after The Shamen's 'Ebeneezer Goode' and having all videos he's appeared in taken down....I think this is so selfish. He was only an extra....funnily enough there was a guy in it carrying a big mirror, wonder if he complains?

Blair

[athomasait]

Sadowitz sounds like a real twit. I guess he must have time on his hands--seems like nobody is "renting nutters" these days. Isn't he the guy who spanked his monkey on stage once? LOSER!!!!!

[blairbooth]

Jerry only appears briefly and has given no regard to the 3 artist that are in the video who want the video to be seen by the public. THIS IS SO UNFAIR.......Do you not feel this is absurd?

Many thanks to the 25,000 who have seen the video and enjoyed it.

Blair

[2tonefootage]

Hi Blair

Yes it is very sad indeed only for you I wouldn't have seen that video and thanks for uploading those Terry Blair & Anouchka Demo recordings I really enjoyed them.

[blairbooth]

Hi people, this is Blair from Terry, Blair & Anouchka. I put up the video of Ultra modern Nursery Rhymes and received a disclaimer from Jerry Sadowitz that I was infringing his copyright. How sad is this? A harmless video, no money changes hands, it's not played on TV and the only exposure is through web sites like YouTube.

[Jigglytuffy]

@blairbooth That's sad. I liked that song so much and they're never going to play in on television. :(

[Rockaria23]

@blairbooth can't we get to see ultra modern then anymore? gosh i remember buying that when i woz younger.... made me so happy.. and still does :-)

[athomasait]

Terry Hall always surrounded himself with good talent and made great songs--no matter what band it was with. It's too bad the TB&A stuff didn't do better on the charts. It was some really good work.

[ykmsp]

Hi there,

Greetings from Singapore! : )

I love Colourfield and Fun Boy, which Terry album is this track from? Its simply awesome!

[blairbooth]

Hi to Singapore from London! Thank you for the lovely comment. The album is Ultra Modern Nursery Rhymes, Chrysalis Records.

Blair

[1oo1oo1oo]

Good song!

Though I think the girl in the hat could have made more effort to look like she can actually play a guitar.

The one on keyboards at least looks like can play it.

Still a good song though.

[SEANBANOG4]

[Lolzoutloud]

she is really beautiful. im prettier tho!

i love this video Sn

[berliner0]

[anobeese]

They must re-release it.Terry hall is multi-talented,I really liked The Fun boy three and every band he joins.This song has the elements of success:good lyrics,nice tune and a good video.

[enneagram]

Love this song so much, a favourite of me & my Dads & in an odd way meant so much more after my Dad passed away.

Thanks so much for posting the video.

[thehorseyset]

Ah, I love YouTube! So many cool things like this I'm pretty sure I'd never get to see otherwise. Thanks!

[SynchPedro86]

Terry Hall was involved in lots of great bands, including Fun Boy Three, The Colurfield and most famously as part of The Specials (later known as Special AKA).

[OrangeZebraTree]

Terry Hall: truly a gift from the music gods (and the highly good looking guys gods)

[OrangeZebraTree]

nekkid wooman nekkid man where did you get....oops. I mean, doot doot doot doot doot doot doot doot

[mangoe1564]

Blimey...does Terry never get any older. Used to go see him in The Specials, he looks no different,amazing!

Good to see hes still going.

[dh1975]

Oh my goodness I can't believe that Blair of Terry, Blair and Anouchka has posted this! I loved this, and "Ultra Modern Nursery Rhyme" and "Happy Families"...still do

[andi69]

Phwoar,Terry Hall.I love this song

[mickdee]

Blair, a question if you don't mind?

What is Terry doing these days, anything planned?

Also, what about yourself, you have a marvellous voice

[RAM71]

Pop perfection!..great track and video!

[suggs2004]

Hail the king who is Terry Hall but lets not forget Dammers, Golding, Staples et al

[blairbooth]

Guiness Hit Singles! Wow, that's a first! Great fun, ain't it?

Blair

[dogstand]

That was a bit good that. Thanks Blair.

[mfarnw]

This was once in the Guiness Hit Singles in the list of "least successful one hit wonders" sad fact fans! nice tune though.

[jemmabelinda]

Long time fan of Terry Hall, long long long long time.....longer than most! I just wanna say that YouTube has made it so great to quickly access videos from another time. Now, for this one, beautiful. Who can't relate??

[blairbooth]

Ok! It's the comma, Terry, Blair & Anouchka! Blair is me, I play piano and sing (long hair). Anouchka guitar (short hair). Blair is often a last name or male first name...I can't help that!

Blair Booth

[julieswahn]

They are so wonderful together.. *swoon*

Why did Terry take on the name Terry Blair or Terry Hall Blair? A form of matrimony or..? And Anoucha is the pianist, yes? I saw another video with these two + a brunette with short hair on a guitar or bass.. who is she?
