Loose Fit - Happy Mondays

[SchmedleyDoRight]

So very GROOVISH.

[mjlew01]

MANY, MANY guitar players should go to school on this track. FANTASIC song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[edvard77able]

@tony671 best comment ever!

[mjlew01]

Great atmosphere on this jam.

[alexanra28]

Remeber I was in my mid 20s in work listening to this song and a bloke in his mid 40s ask me

who the f...k sings this?

I said Happy Mondays why?

He said what a great song.

he went out to buy the single but could,nt find it so he bought Pills and thrills the albam.

Now I am in my 40s and still sounds as good now as it was then.

Class music.

[metallicarules1234]

he doesnt only make that jacket look class, he also rocks that hairdo

[MrsLeanneElliott]

This is not singing!

[alexanra28]

This is class,dont know where you come from.

This music is tops to a generation of what everyone thought of at the time.

Listen to to it.

[MrCarloski91]

any1 watchin this.. bez's biography 'freaky dancin' is well worth a read!

[huzzystar]

I was born in the wrong era. OOH the goosebumps!

[hibs07070707]

I don't need no skin tights In my wardrobe today...

[ImaniHekima]

That guitar riff is so cool....haunting.

[Muddy194]

people say Bez is useless but lets face it it wouldn't be the mondays without him and he's become one of the most iconic parts of the band haha

[85antoniosalazar]

@Muddy194 Bez useless? The best things in life are useless!

[agoodud]

I defy anyone not to have a bop to this tune

[karralm]

top banana :)

[karralm]

u gotta be coooool 2 like this music ;p

[bbqbod]

rubbish quality sound for such a good song

[joebgd]

i know it sounds bad when said, but...thank God for heavy drugs in such a moment of inspiration that produced the music like this one!

[hermanmunsterjujitsu]

this was the song that made me buy pills and thrills. What a mong song says it all about 1990's

[MrNikolong]

this is the best . im from down south. bridport. this is the best one they did.

[Kathodekut]

20 years ago this was a hit... How time flies!

[JJmacd]

This has such a fantastic hook

[punkinthehead65]

do your . bit, it doesnt have to be legit .

[Matty6660]

what film do i remember this from?

[MattThomasFilm]

@Matty6660 24 Hour Party People?

[sensualeyaa]

Bez cant be that bad if he wrote a book or even if he did not write it he had the business acumen to think of doin it!! I hate that word retarded, we all have our faults! p.s can you tell i am a teacher?

[MrTrancemission]

This is a Perfect song!!!

Relaxing

[tomelifeisjustonebig]

I love how Bez comes off as retarded because he actually is!

[TheKaz146]

go on bez!!! lol

[xxItalianBabyxx1]

IM IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG!!!! BEST IVE HEARD IN A WHILE!

[youngsnaps100]

@xxItalianBabyxx1 Best you've heard in a while?! Its 20yr old ffs! Have you been in space or something? YOU sound strange to me....lol ;)

[mizz1255]

The Mondays' finest moment.

[LouAnn1985]

i discovered this song by chance one evening while listening to the radio and i fell in love with it instantly... the guitar riff makes me CRAZY!!!! well... i want this song in my I-pod!!!!!!

[nanaroyale]

seen the mondays and the roses,love em both! them were t'days, a part of my life i wouldnt mind livin again- i wasapunk in the late 70s and early 80s and tony67 is bang on! todays music is like processed food, it dont feed the soul, only simon cowells pockets!

[jpdt007]

this song is made to be danced all buzzed up from a pot binge.

[benolly22]

24hr party peeps luv em (fkn Mancs)

[39thejust1]

Shaun ryder never seems to be a real singer to me - just a geezer wingin it - guess that what makes him so cool!

[thesonicbliss]

BEZ IS AN ICON of a lost era

[TheM79blooper]

shaun ryder makes that ralph lauren jacket look fuckin class, top boy

[deanbolton01]

@TheM79blooper What a comment, your a legend :)

[MrBlueJaye]

sounds good to me.

[huntingforgod]

What 7 douches disliked this? Neeeeeeeeyyyaaaaahhh, you silly tits!

[deanbolton01]

Superb

[isaacneillyo]

shaun ryder is a legend you cant get betta den him

[denisplaku]

fuckably marvelous!

[TheMikacdalibor]

Don't know what you saw, but you know it's against the law

And you know that you want some more

I've heard it all before

Gonna buy an airforce base

Gonna wipe out your race

Get stoned in a different place

Don't you know I got better taste

Do what you're doing, say what you're saying

Go where you're going, think what you're thinking

It sound good to me

[tony671]

this lot and the roses saved us from stock atkin and waterman thank god for the mondays and the stone roses eh .....but god do we need something new now music is worse than before punk

[Kelly14UK]

@tony671 You said it. It's all dance and looks- oriented crap. The Black Eyed Peas and Kate Perry are beginning to really bug me. It sucks. It's all " look at ME". Hate it.

[simon1000]

@tony671

Couldn't agree more.

Good to hear decent Indie music in another decade of mass produced, fake, X-factor influenced autotuned karaoke crap, bought by kids who wouldn't know shit from clay!! Mondays and Roses 4ever!

[MadcapMan]

@tony671

Stop looking in the mainstream

[JFBridge]

@tony671

Couldn't agree more.Whispering Grass and If got to no.1 in the pre-punk era but at least Bo Rhap and I'm Not In Love with their innovative recording techniques got to no.1 too.Virtually all chart music is now generic,corporate-produced pap which is more interested in image and filling the pockets of the execs (including a certain Mr.Cowell).

[tony671]

@JFBridge pop used to be great but like u say with 10cc and queen the charts were interesting, now theres to much dance stuff nothing against dance (my no1 gig this year will be the specials)but i think bland sums up chart music today.

[taffyspark]

@tony671 Oh how fecking true dude!! G.

[alexanra28]

So true,now its going back to Simon Cowel bull shit X factor.

What the fuck is going on?

[skidsaregod]

My mate Derek danced like him! Good times, wish I could be back then! Derek Crate RIP mate you were a legend...

[kadiebeex]

i think this was called 'loose fit' because when everyone took E's, they all hated being in TIGHT clothes, and they all wore LOOSE clothes instead as it was more comfortable.

[skidsaregod]

@kadiebeex Too true kadiebeex. We all sweated our nuts off and could only drink water in the clubs at 5 notes a bottle. Stopped our brains from frying though!!

[thecassieireland]

Oh man how I want Bez's job soo much

[kadiebeex]

@thecassieireland i agree! id love to take numerous amounts of drugs all the time and dance like him...even though is dancing looks easy its actually kinda hard!

[didier350]

Fuckin' rockin'!

[fatmoby]

after watching bez dance, surely most of us should have had at least a good night with our respective ladies,, if not something better... He was engaged in some kind of bean / partridge self horn.....

[yoyohomey]

DONT KNOW WHAT YOU SAW GET STONED IN A DIFFERENT PLACE

SOUNDS GOOD TO ME I HAD THE BEST SEX EVER TO THIS ALBUM

[minisooms]

what is the point of bez? all he adds is one half arsed dance move

[fastertortoise2]

@minisooms it wouldn't be the happy mondays without bez. he's an integral part. yes really

[ILoveDubstep123]

@minisooms listen mate, its one of them things it just wouldnt be happy mondays with bez

[Bondangoed]

Shaun - a true legend of our generation! we salute you sir!

[noddingtons]

pure genius

[spdpadres]

Shaun Ryder LEGEND 

[oliverb96]

SHAUN RYDER= LEDGEND

[dtumahtsew]

proper charlie nose

[larryoloai]

Shaun's nose is so big he needs an empty toilet roll to snort coke!

[soundmusiclover]

bez and shaun are absolute legends.

There are some good people in the jungle with him but none a pure genuine character like him.

[Glat64]

Tis a choon without a doubt !!

[MrForkbeard]

"Happy Mondays or Stone Roses?" Dint know it was a competition...I choose both.

[KarmicAnarchist]

@MrForkbeard You have to pick one or the other. It's the Law!

Oasis OR Blur, Stones OR Beatles, Osmonds, OR the Rollers! Robson OR Jerome. And no, it's not a competition, but there will be winners, and losers, jus' the same!

[destructivedandy]

@KarmicAnarchist And as Tony Wilson said, he was just happy to have the more controversial band. For me, Mondays over Stone Roses, Stones over Beatles and Oasis OR Blur? I choose Pulp mate ;)

[stephen313]

@MrForkbeard. Absolutley man

[brenfoley]

@MrForkbeard ...you can sing that mate!!

[PrimalStones]

@MrForkbeard Roses though let's be honest

[DanRowland4]

@MrForkbeard Fooking yes mate!!!

[mjlew42]

@MrForkbeard

If forced to chose. The Mondays

[mjlew42]

@MrForkbeard ,

Mondays for whatever reason the Roses din't hit me like the Mondays did/do!

[darwindunn]

yes just gotta get bez on strictly

[thenewtown]

quality tune man, the mondays are legends...MADCHESTER!!

[lanothebest]

[elizabethvictoriabor]

i love the 90s but i hate that haircut

[asphodeline]

@elizabethvictoriabor His current haircut suits him better now - he doesn't look any older in truth.

[BUMBLEINA]

wicked track!!!

[dannyob2008]

happy mondays or stone roses......? hmm

[TheMonkey3Fan]

Great vibe, great guitar line and Rowetta was some singer!

[sparkypogo]

[fraz1314]

[wakeo29]

[TheKontosuburbian]

Madchester revival! (crosses fingers)

[cheryltweedyismint]

RYDER = FUCKIN LEGEND and dont anybody tell me otherwise !

[lawriemanc]

[bendym4n123]

BRING BACK THE HACIENDA!

AND DOWN WITH TODAYS BANDS THEY ARE ALL BOLLOX"!

[jchopra]

Truly amazing band...

[LyudmilTsonchev]

Bring back Factory,bring back Tony Wilson,and never forget Ian Curtis please!

[3DPeter]

@LyudmilTsonchev

i'm from holland, and i wish that i was there back in the days.

must have bin alot of fun.

[teethgrinder07]

love it how they went to barbados to get free from heroin....only to discover barbados was crack cocaine central, then they made the record company bankrupt somehow buying crack for like 25p a go hahaha

[alanlaing]

@teethgrinder07 the record company went bust because of the fiasco of losing money on ever copy of the biggest selling 12" of all time (Blue Monday) and the Hacienda (which they owned) was haemorrhaging money

[teethgrinder07]

@alanlaing oh yeah your right it cost more to make the thing than to sell it, i remember a documentary about it

[MrRyan200]

The Modays spent all their money on Es, coke and girls . . . the rest they just squanderd!

LEGENDS!

[mindtrippp]

bezzzzz

[cheryltweedyismint]

It fucks me off to see Shaun Ryder skint....And Bez aswell, The mondays were and still are the best band ever imo, I love them and Shaun Ryder is a fuckin legend....He should be livin in a mansion now doin lines off the pussies of pornstars and groupies, The mondays and the whole 'Madchester' era make me proud to be a mancunian....Long live the Happy mandays and Manchester/Madchester the best city in the world.

[Paxobo]

@cheryltweedyismint Ye but for some lttle mancs tey didnt half do bad.

[cheryltweedyismint]

@Paxobo Im not sure if I should be offended by your comment or not !

Im from Manchester and I sure aint 'some little manc' and neither are the Happy mondays.

[Paxobo]

@cheryltweedyismint I was saying it in reply to someone who was saying how upset he is that Bez and shaun skint.

If you dont see that or are offended i couldn't care less.

[cheryltweedyismint]

@Paxobo It was me who wrote the original comment about Bez and shaun, Im not really bothered either but Manchester is the 3rd biggest City and tbh in terms of success for music and football etc, Its the biggest City..... just didnt like the way you reffered to Shaun and Bez as 'Little Mancs' like Manchester is some under previlaged place like Ethiopa or something.

[Paxobo]

@cheryltweedyismint Oh yeah sorry i was being simple. But yeah fair enough.

[wildbilljam]

@cheryltweedyismint  In Fairness they spent all their money on Girls, coke and E's so its not like they wasted it! =)

[cheryltweedyismint]

@wildbilljam Shaun Ryder got screwed off the black grape managers when they sued him......every penny he earned went to them and It was still like that up until a few years ago....not sure if its still goin on today.

[kid123434]

Bez is a legend!!!!

[kristalklass]

Oh the memories, bliss, and still sound ace too x

[jobe2jbc]

[suzietina35]

[4444ThinLizzy]

Yes! Very Good!

[ramoneschick1]

I loved the guitar in the background with that catchy riff, god i wish i was back in 90's again :(

[carpetsandchairs]

@ramoneschick1 Such a simple riff... like all good music.. simple, not what you play but how you play it..

[MrSnakey77]

@ramoneschick1 - yeah the 90's , I work with a bunch of early 20's kids and all they talk about is 90's music, great to know I was there!

[AntiGravDisclosure]

holy shit this is good

[ZAOUWV]

yes they were a great band end of the eighties

[MrEightiesforever]

when you listen to the guitar rif it's like listening to the cure.... FANTASTIC!!!

[born4truluv]

this is a sexy number to dance to.

[grumpmonk]

anyone got any veras

[DannyBoyMega]

Nein!

[freakodeluxe]

god bring back the 80's/90's

[Lysimachus]

I swear the more songs I hear of this band the better they get.

[nookie077]

This clip should answer any questions about the Mondays being an iconic band. Plus, Roweta did look kinda fit back then.

[markusdamned]

Sounds fuckin good to me

[oniricist]

sounds good to me

[Fgh2rvb]

this has to be the best song ever about a pair of jeans

[negozioderby]

my buddy harland introdoced me to them way back when

i think there is no better undergound mainstream band

maybe sacred spirit tricky

[boleplissken]

so coooooool so so cooooooool...

[jkat2000]

quintessential mondays

such sophisticated thugs

wouldn't be real if drugs didn't break 'em up

"get stoned in a different place"

subwayartcrimes don't u know we've got better taste

[canotunatim]

makes me cry with joy

[subwayartcrimes]

"drugs broke them up" l.o.l. drugs made them in the first place. ey up sean. you owe me a fiver.

[Trick6828]

Drugs broke them up......They where so good.......

[teabettyak]

oh quite thrilling times, the happy mondays times!! i remember 1990/1991.. the kreuz.. a club in my home town..

[MrLien2U]

That rift at 26 seconds is just pure musical genius.

[Trick6828]

True
