[zeldafanboy345]

[bluemoonshinya]

[eddybullet]

this needs the 'techno remix' overhaul....

[spottydog4477]

@eddybullet mate -your fukin answer to everything ...........I'd like to see your head kicked in 'techno' style..........

[1Miriam]

What do you mean it is a 'not well known' David Bowie song ... we all knew it when it came out!! It was thrashed on the radio as much as everything else *** raspberries! ***

[TheInky1234]

Have you got a light boy???? Classic

[supermark64]

[Tylendal242]

Funny how he flatly refuses to ever put this on a new album, no matter how much people ask.

[MrJoncando]

The only Bowie tune, that matters :))))))))

[MrJoncando]

The only Bowie tune, that matters :)))))))))

[MrBradf]

He was walking DOWN the highway not up

[SteveGad]

Your "Chessy little cartoon" is a work of genius friend. I put it on my FB page to cheer up people passing by! Well done!

[SquidFan]

The next Life on Mars spin-off will be called "The Laughing Gnome" and is probably set in the 60's!

[Furfur616]

Lol this is so punny.

[urlordmuman]

Nice vid.

[theALmighty66]

This right here . . . is awesome.

[robbiedonut]

HEHHEEHEHE! So cute!! <33

[PyramidQueenCarolina]

I admire Mr. Bowie... and I swear this is the... weirdest but cutest thing I've ever listened to!!

Oh, and by the way, nice cartoon ^^

[Kiialy]

FUCK. LMAO! This song... I don't even know. I really don't. But it amuses me.

[Cosi977]

huge call putting a bowie song in the worst 100 of all time. Da Vinci could have finger painted with his own shit and it would be in the Louvre

[sasybee]

@Cosi977 your statement about Leonardo made my day

[Clarkcarrie]

Takes me back to hearing it as a kid and totally loving it. "Gnome-man's land", "We're gnome-ads", etc! Ha. I was 8 and got the jokes.

[ShushShushable]

FUCKING CLASS.

[smarte861]

...worst...song...ever...

[StardustZiggy95]

this song is amazing!

[hebesphenomegacorona]

literally the best youtube comments section

[ViolinsAndDrums]

Laughing so much.

[DLiberator78]

I like the cartoon you made to go with this tune. This is a classic and relatively unknown Bowie song. I love it and recently purchased it on eBay and I have shown it on my May pickups vid. Thanks for sharing. This is a fun track.

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 SAME DIAGNOSIS !!!! i think i ought to get a refund now ; i dont know why you have'nt been struck off with your obscene language either 'Doctor'.Back to your diagnosis, i told all my lovely friends and relatives about it and they were all laughing at your comments and then they told lots of other people they knew and they were all laughing at you too.Anyway, have a nice evening

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 Thank you Doctor ; you ARE a DOCTOR arent you ? How much was that advice ? Send the bill to my accountant please ; i will pay though the therapy WAS just a wee bit negative for a professional counsellor i must say ; surely its not entirely ethical to tell your patients theyre LONELY 'FUCKERS' with no hope ; maybe you can go on a course to brush up on your skills.Anyway i'll take your diagnosis and prognosis on board....but i'll go for at least a second opinion before our next session

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 SEE ? You might listen to Arthur Askey now ; what a giveaway ! Lol

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 You LOVE my 'internet nonsense' really ; admit it ; i can tell

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 Lol WOW what ? YOU suspect ME ?? ha ha well why are you slagging me off then ; you only SUPPORT the fuckers usually

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 How can you say that about me after all we've been through

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 LOL My 'Blether' is tiresome ONLY to PAEDOPHILES and their SUPPORTERS who cant hide from people like myself who are crusaders against CHILD ABUSERS and people who back them ; Oh yes and psychopath is out of date now ; its sociopath now like what i said YOU were

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 Lol Laughing fuckin' GNOME ?? What WERE you doing on here ? Looking for little KIDS to chat to ??

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 Ooooo Ha ha ha ha ha ; you must admit i though that i did you up like a kipper when i took you by surprise finding you on this post Lol i've never laughed so much in my life.Get back to your PAEDOPHILE HERO WORSHIP posts fuckin' JONATHAN KING !! LOL O LOL where you'll find ME again waiting for you to give you more of the stick you deserve for supporting Paedophiles and perhaps BEING ONE !

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 Well typical of you to reveal the REAL sociopath we all know you are beneath your pretentious veneer, wishing cancer on anyone ; you fool no one though PAEDOPHILE LOVER.Dont cry about it though Lol

[kenfig]

@drdawn86 Yeah well you should know whats CUTE as you support stinking CONVICTED SERIAL PAEDOPHILE JONATHAN KING !!

[menacinghat]

@kenfig

what's the argument about? who's the pedo?

[metalbucket2]

The gnome sounds like Barbara Windsor on helium

[XmummyslittlegirlX]

AMAZING! LOVE IT!

[RedWaif]

Fan bloody tastic! here's to the Manor Shades - Gravesend 1983!

[lov4jesus]

That's awesome.

[kenfig]

Great record that wasnt a hit until 1973 when Bowie was big but was from 1967.Love this little cartoon ; not cheesy at all ; its cute

[redsnapper1959]

@kenfig Yep ... first released in April 1967 on the Deram label.

[XIXDoXBiteX]

This song actually made me cryy with laughter, especially at the "metrognome" bit XD Bowie is pure genius!

[cockatoo166]

great little song, the depressing thing is I am old enough to know what the 'Home Service' is, i know the lyric says gnome service

[kenfig]

@cockatoo166 andthe BBC Light Programme ! Ha ha dont be too depressed as at least we have great memories like watching Dee Time with Simon Dee, The Avengers and having Sgt Pepper brand new etc !!

[hazmae1]

[moodymooface]

on Facebook website obviously but cant post full link!! :)

[RateDTD]

Everyone says this is one of the worst songs of all time. Really? I maybe bias because I'm a huge Bowie's fan, but this song rules.

[gringolazlo]

the video > song.

[DANTECHPFN]

funny, bowie is a king

[lebowskirulz]

I love Bowie, but I dont understand why he thought this was a good idea. Love the puns though <3

[bluethumper2006]

HE sed fagg! LOL

[Kubo220374]

@bluethumper2006 It's English slang for cigarette

[videocoverkid]

wtf

[JonnyInfinite]

I love how he just laughs and takes the piss at the end

[spitfireanke1]

Hey, love this song. Everytime I hear it, I get very happy. It makes me smile and sing along: hahaha, hihihi I'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me!

AK

[Loobs666]

This is one of them rare songs that are so awful, they are magnificent! Listening to it...You don't know wether to kill someone or fuck them or both (and even then i'm stumped in which order to do it).... in the mean time, i'm just gonna screech along..... HA HA HA.......

[G7VEW]

Bowie's only good record!

[SourApplez1211]

I don't like his song, it's worse than other classic rock songs.

[sethzard]

I don't like this song, it is much worse than Bowie's other stuff, I love the Bewlay Brothers

[austin13844]

lol i no this song and im 12 because my dad puts it on all the time and i will go mad if he puts it on at my party lol

[Thoughtland]

I can't think for the life of me why he doesn't sing this anymore.

Its just pure class.

[lewisner]

@Thoughtland he was hugely embarrassed when they released it , just like Adam Ant with Young Parisians.

[TheBookWorm1718]

@lewisner As I've said before, I can't blame him for that, I certainly wouldn't own up to it if I'd done it...but that said I do love this song, it's very funny and I like we actually get a song where we get to hear him laugh.

[lewisner]

@TheBookWorm1718 I love it too, but a mate has said he hates it so much he will twat me one if I play it when he comes round!

[willgonow]

the best bowie tune ever !!!!!!!

[dazedcola]

this song really reflects how much he adores syd barrett

[ThisisPunk]

Really?

[skabbonica]

@dazedcola

Whoa, an insightful comment on YouTube? Rarer than this song.

I was just thinking how this wasn't a particularly good example of early Bowie, then I read your comment and it kinda fell into place what Barrett was releasing around the time this would've been recorded, and you're right, it's an obvious tribute. Totally changed the way I saw this song. Great observation.

[profbarkingmad]

@dazedcola - precisely

[kaioxygen]

@dazedcola The Piper at the Gates of Dawn was released in August 1967, The laughing Gnome 14 April 1967

[cockatoo166]

He must have been on acid when he wrote this song

[mobyboy]

such a funny song :)))

[hotelmario510]

We have a winner!

[hotelmario510]

Not many know this, but this was Alvin's first 'big' record...

[radiohd04]

David Bowie is the Lord.

[JOHNCONNELLGROUP]

@Picklepumpers, picklepumpers

The tic-tac mouse humper

That's all he can please

but the mice, they tease!!

Darn that tic tac picklepumper

(mind you is it mice or pickle's he's into!!!) I'll never eat a pickle agan - ugh....

[mrszoeblack1]

This song is so strange and addictive!

[JOHNCONNELLGROUP]

MRSZBLACK1

THIS SOng is crap

[hotelmario510]

David Bowie...he was a good old eccentric, wasn't he?

[soralove06]

lol. my friend told me to watch this and the song is so funny! lol

[myroflcopterisnice]

note: Fag is a british term for cigarette mr.bottlesnooze

[human1nature]

superior animation, thanks..song cannot compare.

[BlazeInRhye]

The is from David Bowie's FIIIRST album called simply "David Bowie"

It was when he was signed to Deram records.

[officialpoppygraham]

well done about the animation the song is soooo funny

[loopylycoscow]

i can't stop laughing when i see your video and song now, its fab!

[playedatnoumber7]

[PanthereMauV]

Fuck, this is genius!! XD

[botbagel]

Would LOVE to have some dandelion wine...Sounds like DB had a grunt too much of it here...love it!!!! Who knows, maybe I've gnomes around me and the wine allows me to see them...lol

[Perfect0430]

Found it.... It's called David Bowie - Starting Point

[Perfect0430]

i've been looking for this song everywhere...the last time i heard this was when i was like 5...i'm 19 now...i haven't been able to find this album anywhere. it's a pic of him in black and white, in a square surround by yellow, and it just says david bowie.

[lewisner]

I love those gnomes 8-)

[multicolouredmaid]

Well done this is fab --love your animation and i love this song ------ memories of my brother playing it to me when I was very small! We loved the laughing!!

[McOktopus]

Hee hee hee.

>.>

[felineperson]

'Oh really?'

[SpenceS16]

The BEST David Bowie song!

[TheOneTrueSpLiT]

It is a classic Bowie track, not too well known but I've had it in my collection since I was 10!!! that was 30 yrs ago now and I still PMSL every time I hear it - got effort on making a vid for it ;-)

[Nakkinak]

what the...

[shadowcrap1]

how old is that song? is he still alive?

[027sarah]

try using the internet. released in 1973 by Deram Records, then again in '73 in the wake of The rise & fall of Ziggy stardust-fabulous record though he is embarrassed by it - go figure

[bananachiquitabanana]

HAHA... very entertaining.

[freakymushroomgal]

David Bowie (Y)

Heh, Awesomly Random :P

[AnnoyingLittleShit]

hmm, he must have been on some pretty strong stuff.

(cough)

[sweetglamgirl123]

I love this song, my dad had it on tape, until my grandads car got nicked, and they took this tape when they raided it :'(

[xxLondonMoonlightxx]

Ahh, David. <33

[AKnightWhoSaysNe]

OMG

SONG SO BAD

MUST REMOVE EARS

D:

[GlorifiedTruth]

"That's Fred.  He's a metro-gnome!" HILARIOUS!!!!

[UnknownSun556]

After a great album like 'Low' I bet he's embarrassed by this.

[techtester45]

WORST SONG EVER LOL, know SERIOUSLY WORST

[LinkBulletBill]

It is about a special drug, called L...S...D...

But it isn't the worst, seriously, there are much more worse song, this song is very talented, but yet s not very, what shall I say, intriguing.

[grantg3]

Has nothing to do with drugs what so ever, Its about a Gnome that came to visit Bowie in his house........God why does everything have to do with Drugs...... :) Yes im taking the Piss

[KoolSpeed]

pink floyd's scream thy last scream inspired this

[joshua0112]

Scream Thy Last Scream was recorded in August 1967. This was released in April 1967.

[AnnoyingLittleShit]

this song scares the hell out of me...

[coolcat2239]

=]]]]

[iknowdinto0]

One of the most epic songs ever, period.

[CrunchyFrog50]

Cute video ! Been singing part of this old  song to my son at bedtime for 3 years.

[kasey670]

nice try but this song still sucks

[Superpig74]

I LOVE it !!! it just gets beaten by The Pink Floyd's song "The Gnome" ...

[ArthurGanate]

this is actually pretty cool!!!

[AnnoyingLittleShit]

And I thought the people who made pokemon were on crack...

[BdALpye]

well David Bowie really WAS on crack so...

[mignonhenne]

is there an edit without the gnome (sped up bowie) ?

[grumpygeezertype]

....... just say no kids.

[revolverocelot9211]

this is fucking homo as hell, you all WILL agree with me too, none of you have any rights at all. i own every single fucking piece of shit heap of skin and bone on this fucking planet. i will fuck you up nigger!
