[todarealmadrid]

[Pulpedtoafiction31]

Would have been good alongside a mixture of the old Brixton Riots and the recent riots.Apparently this tune was loosley based on the riots in the 1980s.

[2toothy4u]

Nice take on an old classic. Weird though, 30 yrs on ,and fuck all's changed

[IAmMystified]

Love your video especially comment at 2:34 LMAO.

Remix of Ghost Town, here at last - was not easy remixing a classic, so we're braced for a tirade of abuse.

[croydonsbest]

shaun of the dead

[ecpeter]

Fucking great stuff man.

[adrianemsley]

wow, this song is 30 years old and lyrics such as government leaving youth on the shelf and people getting angry are as prominent today as they were back then, doubt this song is on a tory members i pod!! peace

[Rossi796]

lmao 2.35 ahahhha

[MrJuicejohn]

My first reaction was 'this is Gay'. But you know what, I like it, it's quite good. I think you need more of the dancing skeleton and a few more 'Ghost-ducks' near the end :D

[konnichiwaneku]

entertaingly crappy video . . . keep it up!

[Ardbug]

Loved the dancing "ghost" :)

[StreetBoi69uk]

[DanielDumile]

Good stuff here my friend.

It seems youtube is actually good for something.

[marlastrongbow]

AND THEN A SKELETON POPPED OUT

[blackboy923]

how did you do that with the skeleton wow

[SBARTSTV]

wat chav diid this vid lol

[TheLkvoice]

Tripods are good

[dwynnell]

Good attempt at a video, well done the glory is yours for an attempt. Ignore those who are critical and have not attempted the same themselves. I would suggest that the panning shots would be greatly improved by using a tripod with some kind of fluid head to give you that smooth pan you seemed to be looking for.

All the best.

[bashereddin]

I shouldn't like this vid but I do!

[henryrobert21]

wer is the graveyard? i kno where everywhere else is

[thesavedone1]

I would just like to say i tink you have done a good job on filming this video

[Criszzilla]

Love the dancing skeleton.

[darthvaderhobbit]

Thumbs up if you like the 'dancing skeleton' !!!

[cytoair1]

[DJGoodvibes]

And I always thought the Specials wrote this song about Coventry as that's where their from lol!

[DJGoodvibes]

[GeriatricFan1963]

Love Yorkshire,

Love Scarborough,

But Ghost town? I know my grandparents live there, and occasionally on a grey day i'm drawn to believe that i'm in the very prescence of the undead...

Also, are parts of this shot in peazone park and near the coastline? Because I've been there. And that automatically makes this a fantastic video.

[DAVEYBOND007]

Fuck me it's Tillydrone in Aberdeen when all you see these days is spooks ! Or Poles !!!

[Whyisthisthat]

Ireland's National Anthem

[Danny1i]

Over 150,000 views, over 350 'like's' and mainly possitive comments - still happening three years after this was posted, thanks guys, it really means a lot, seeing as i wasn't going for anything here, it was just a crappy music video i/we shot for a college course in one afternoon.

[TheCaleyman]

@Danny1i I've just made it 540 likes. Had a holiday in Scarborough once with my parents. Don't remember much about it, other than there was sea fret for most of the fortnight. Really liked the dancing skeleton. I'm still trying to work out how it was done. It was so realistic! Couldn't see any strings or anything. I reckon it must have been done with that new CGI thingy. I'll get back to the video now. Had to pause it before it ended and started playing the next Watch Later one.

[1nterwebs]

@Danny1i I've got bad news for you ... people come here for the song not your video so YOU havn't achieved anything.

[dirtboxdivas]

@Danny1i

Really liked your vid - we've just remixed this classic btw

[Snufferson]

Yeah it is on that soundtrack. It's called "Junktown Reggae" by Harbourside '83. -- A side project of his. I finally found it here on youtube. Great song.

[dredlife3]

this was in Natural Born Killers & Snatch

[TeddySpaceman]

@dredlife3 well done

[metalguitarplayer1]

Sonic oil level.

[TeddySpaceman]

@Danny1i rough man

[cytoair1]

[Mototrebbia666]

[destroybabylon420]

@Danny1i is that in California?

[Danny1i]

[inhmn]

[Rao665]

@inhmn

[ankoku37]

This was in a movie... God, I can't remember which...

[rorschach1911]

@ankoku37 Shaun of the Dead? Natural Born Killers?

[ankoku37]

@rorschach1911 I think it was Shaun.

[cmgraceland]

snatch!!

[hatrickp]

Have you not got ANY records???

Hang on now, just WAIT a second... I might have one. I'll tell ya, I have one out in the carrrr...

[ROTTEKEEG]

If you are running out of skeletons just barrow somone of me dude :D

[tangoman111]

This song is all about the conservative government getting into power. :P

[PazCCFC]

Will everyone please stand for our national anthem.

[MrIndiepick]

I can't help but think of Shaun of the Dead when listening to this

[vSkankin2Ska]

@MrIndiepick I think of "The Jungle Book" for some reason.

[amosyboy]

2:36 i actually laughed at it nice comment m8 :L

[Oct4vi4nus]

Haha. The dancing skeleton is awesome! Good work! Nice vid. Keep it up!

[MrTimmyjones]

[KatziiYataki]

@LFCEOIN No disco should be without Ghost Town.

And should be without every other record in existence.

[LFCEOIN]

@KatziiYataki yeh and alternative national anthems aswell lol

[LarryMcN]

Love the vid. Great sense of humour, and a scray skeleton. Ace!

[Danny1i]

[DIRTY451]

and Scarborough is NOT A GHOST TOWN

LMFAO

[Danny1i]

@DIRTY451 no it's not, but i live there and couldn't get anywhere else - and chose this song to do a music video for.

[Electricninjamonkey]

Horray 4 Ska! :D

[garynevillestache]

I love this ....absolutely brilliant

[MrSpliff2K9]

Were you high?

[thrasherfetus]

2:34 lol the car passed in an inappropriate moment

[dayiiv]

the vid is a nice attempt but to sum up this song you need slow side scrolling shots down streets in the black country (where is am from) with closed down boarded up shops and empty factories.

[ochayedonald]

Dancing skeleton made me laugh! Nice one

[wtfEPILOGUE]

too close to perfection this song is.

i like your video as well. definitely got some creative shots. x

[Stewbone]

HaHaHaHa! Look at the skeleton on 137! That's what people really used to do in England, right? When they danced in clubs, they danced like that, right? Another band I would suggest is the Beatles.

[Stewbone]

HaHaHaHa! Look at the skeleton on 137! That's what people really used to do in England, right? When they danced in clubs, they danced like that, right?

Small world. I searched for this song and Scarborough came up, lived there back in the 90's. LMAO.

[Marshmallowgun]

[XH558B2]

Watching the video reminded me of good times with an ex partner from there.... Amanda Davison from Prospect Road in Scabby....

[warrock179]

[TheMiamifuentes]

I think it looks really nice camera motion is rocky but the pictures are crisp and the panning camera is a nice touch

[reallyphyco190]

the grim reaper driving the car. lol good video

[NymphZoic68]

It's talking about my town..

[misskitti7]

The real video and song are about the Old town of Hull

[diggiethree]

this video sucks. the friggin chipmunk could have done a better job.

[leeescott]

@diggiethree its a squirrel

[joci416]

kookz

[zabamen8519]

[benmessi10]

I shall make the return of ska one day I swear

[Geistertramper]

divine ! its in my fav "zombie" film "shaun of the dead"

[EdM021]

0:34 A squirrel!

Coventry was only the beginning. Now lots of places in the UK and the US are ghost towns. And the depopulation is now spreading into areas that did not see it prior to this current Depression!

[Danny1i]

it was my first video

shot in about 2 hours on a very windy afternoon,

without a tripod.

so - wilth regards to that - no i dont think i is.

although - you are entitled to your opinion

[TheTwelfthDoctor]

0:34 wasn't that the dramatic chipmunk?

[Danny1i]

haha good call

[dm9030]

@Danny1i nice try, if you had some zombies walking, it would be the best scary movie

[Elliott1005]

@TheTwelfthDoctor Lol Nice Call
