Musicologists have retrospectively catalogued the still-influential works of Mulligan and O'Hare into three distinct types: the surreal ditties about plate fungus, Gerard Depardieu and burning Sidcup houses; the "Rose" song cycle which suggests they may have actually gone insane and murdered her in real life; and the brief glimpses into a void of screaming insanity that are the Instrumental tracks.
That instrumental track has got to be the funniest thing i've ever seen, pissed myself when i was 13 and pissed myself just now. Best go and change me under keks,Damn !!
When a Child is Born was one of their greatest moments ever. I think if there was ever a minute's worth of threadbare VCR tape from a clip being played over and over again to hoots of hysterical laughter and pissing in pants, it would have been where Vic plays the udders.
I'll never forget the first time I saw this way back in 96. When "When A Child Is Born" came on, I ended up falling off the sofa and crawling around on the lounge floor struggling to breathe because I was laughing so hard
tired the stunts. fell off my bike. perhaps i should've worn high heels. ant and dec's fathas no doubt had famous singing careers before their devilish progeny took over...
This clip is just toooooo funny. It's so good it's actually art. The Mulligan & O'Hare songs are brilliant and the homage to Melvyn Bragg is simply sublime. I can't watch his bicycle stunts without wetting my pants. This is the pinacle of their work imo.
That instrumental section 'When A Child is Born' reduced my son and I to gibbering wrecks. I haven't laughed so hard in years, this has to be the funniest clip I have ever seen on YouTube. Pure Insanity from Reeves and Mortimer. Absolute genius.
Why these guys aren't millionaires is beyond me. The instrumental number, when a child is born, actually made me cry. I physically laughed so much my stomach hurt.

No! Allow them to be employed in the white goods industry instead. They can surely manufacture bevelled plastic spigots for their crimes.
