What the fuck??? I love this tune.... Why is it all of a sudden I have to watch a shite shampoo commercial before I can view ??? It wont even let me fast forward. . . . . I mean cmon for starters I hate adverts for second I'm fuckin bald anyway !!! Commercial bullying!!
Storming. I remember hearing this for the first time on Mark Radcliffe's show back in the day and being totally blown away. Whose side are we on? Yours lads, obviously. Moo!
@tstoakley Well, I'm visiting Cambridge over Easter so I guess I'll find out then. I'm expecting great things from all the toff student girls with their blue blood genes, and the lovely Polish women who's pig-ugly fellas are working the nearby fields!
No cheesy organ riff? No wonder this is the best Inspirals song. I saw the ugly goon Clint whatever DJing one NYE in Manc and he was fucking awful. Every tune he played was crap and when people who'd paid good money to be there complained he was a twat and said tough, I'm the one in the DJ box cos I'm famous. I fell asleep before 12!
mark e is a god ,the inspirals were graced with his divine presence ,as a carpets fan myself ,this was the best track they ever did ,!!! bar none ,because of m,e,s, talking over it:)
shit yeah you're right...my dad's from salford too...manchester and salford are like siblings with manchester the younger bigger wealthier though not tougher of the two
Thats funny, I just tracked this down......I was one of the girls in the video, the one with the white hair band beating up the drummer, had a cracking laugh that night, wicked bunch of lads and wicked tune too, turn it up...........
i remember when they appeard on top of the pops n on walks martk e smith this skinny pug faced cat weisel looking phet head and the loyal totp viewers are wondering who da fuck is that..mark e whaty
Just awesome shame Oasis came along. In ten odd years Oasis never did anything as good as the carpets' singles. And to think Noel used to claim the carpets were shit. Just listen Noel, fresher sound and it's older than your band.
....Im with you on that one!! I always thought quoasis were average pub rock at best. Bit of the emperors new clothes syndrome, every one fell for it!! I think they are simply awful!!!

Mark says "Try and be like The Seeds - no one's heard of them either".
The Seeds were an obscure US 60s garage / punk band, probably well-known to Mark Smith and the Carpets
