  • I just found out that Fatboy Slim was a member of The Housemartins.

    My world has turned upside down!

  • i just love the sentiment of this song.

    @arniemazmax AMEN ! 

  • melhor com ysley jasper ysley! chata assim.

  • play this in church every week and attendance will sky rocket..... just think of the good feeling factor.... forget about life outside for a while!

  • Blessed Beautiful Ballad.

    Happy Heavenly Harmony.

  • It amazes me that harmonies and vocals like this just don't exist today. Makes me sad.

  • FatBoy Slim lol

  • I love this song,but it also makes me feel sad,because it seems like only yesterday, when I bought it on 7" vinyl. I feel really old now.  :{

    But I still love it. :)

  • 16 took the bus

  • Should have been the Christmas no.1 in 1986.

  • song is good,but i don't really like the clip in the church

  • @kaiboy42

    This is the best version ever.

    Not that overly done american emotionalism...

  • @kaiboy42 don't hate, when British boys cover soul songs they wreck the charts

  • Funny that, as it got to the top of the British charts,on Dec 16th 1986.

  • in this world people like listen songs about sex violence lovestorys shame really .. this is one of the best song i heard really sober easy listening .. BEAUTYFUL

  • I want this song to be played at my funeral

  • @HomburgandScotch same here !

  • 12 people r just ,people who have no friends,and this is the only way they get attention,,,,,,,,gobshites

  • Play this song almost everyday, makes me smile :)

  • Young Fatboy Slim :D

  • Genious

  • "Love all the people..."

  • Amazing. Hull and Proud <3

    I'm 15, and this is a truly outstanding song. Today's music is shit.

  • @TheMesozic :)

  • Fucking awesome!!!

  • this is a great song

  • got to number 1 and it doesn't have a single instrument in it. Amazing

  • The place in which we were born/So neglected and torn..time to stand up against Cameron's savage trampling of the people.Stand up..stand up..

  • love it

  • why dosent this have 25 million views? <3

  • @ScottOnTubeTV Exactly Why does not? I noticed that some video, poor and bad have to many wievs comparing with quality. Why not Caravan of love.

    I gues reason is that this song healing people if listening enough, even over doze. Usually most played music working destructive on our body.

  • @ScottOnTubeTV 'cause the world is no more a "world of peace"! Well, I wonder when it was...

    Everybody, join the Caravan of Love!!!!!

  • 11 people suck for not liking this vid >:(

  • The human voice is the greatest musical instrument of all!

  • @pythonbyte pillock

  • Las canciones de esta gente son muy buenas, pero los vídeos son de pena.

  • Loved em, still love em, will always love em, period.

  • This song does things to me it did when I first heard It as a boy, I get it, the sentiment, the singers lament, yelp and earnest cry. It has a quasi religious feel and sentiment...just beautiful...as an atheist I love this.This should be mankinds theme. Everyones our brother and sister, there should be no selfish angle, instead of bombing people out of existence we should be lifting loving and aiding into restoration. And we don't have to all live in a caravan to do it lol.;))

  • @arniemazmax Great comment :-)

    

  • Fantastico!

  • אחד השירים שאני מאוד אוהב..

  • I can't believe I forgot about this song! I love it! For I second, I thought I was listening to Morrissey, then in the next second I thought Barenaked Ladies... but I love the song, and the video is fun. thanks to the one who posted it.

  • Comment removed

  • Norman Cook???

  • @12345l6789 Fat Boy Slim

  • @philthy122 i wasnt asking who he was you cretins. i was questioning why he's in the fucking housemartins

  • @12345l6789 oh, ok you numpty; he was in the Housemartins along time before he even thought of Fat Boy Slim. So its a case of he WAS in the Housemartins, not a case of asking why IS he in the Housemartins.

    You do have a concept of past, present and future?

  • @philthy122 No I don't. I am a mere husk that just exists. Visual and auditory signals hit me independently, but it takes a good few hours for them to process properly. It all gets a bit much if i try to take in too much at once.

  • @12345l6789 lol

  • love this !!!i had almost forgot that song then out in the blue my wife to be sang this song and well the rest is history

  • Nobodies? NOBODIES! h I'm sorry I forgot we're only supposed to know the most famous musicians... Why don't you fuck off and actually learn some perspective

  • Beloved one. With Norman Cook included!

  • this is nothing compared to the isley version. who are these nobodies?

  • MY BROTHER IS MY SISTER!

    COSMIC .............

  • It's a fantastic song, but a massive departure from their regular sound. Personally, my favourite is Five Get Over Excited.

  • OMG nice way to murder/cofver a song hahaha Perhaps thats why they're singing in a church? Just a thought...

  • 2:56 Refernce to Catholic Pedofiles?

  • From right now they have a place inside my head

  • yo they stole this song from the isley brother!!!

  • To Kazza, i love you so much i know we are gypo`s but i want us to live in our own little caravan forever.

    its amazing how we met through the fortune teller ESTER FAA BLYTHE who predicted we`d meet at the gypsy fair at Appleby

    people call us new age, travellers, Romani people but to me you`ll just be plain old kazza the gypo. My gift to you is a new pony, called Cummers Ryan the pony.

    its gorgeous but its unique cause its got an arse like a hippoooooooo

    Kaz will you be my gypo wifey ???????

  • @MrSpammers - did she say yes?!

  • a mkinhya parte favorita desta musica é aquela em que ele diz: "now the childrens of the world can see, this a better place for us to be" Adoro

  • Good to hear this song again.... STAND UP

  • Engraçado como a vida é certo dia estava assistindo um dvd com musicas da década de 80 e vi o clipe build da banda the housemartins gostei tanto ( principalmente do Paul) que quiz conhecer outras musicas amei todas happy hour, me and farmer, sheep, etc. Mas a que concerteza me encantou foi Caravan of love, pois tem uma letra muito bonita e eu em pleno 2010 com 19 anos me tornei fã de uma banda que acabou a mais de 20 anos atraz (fato que me deixou muito triste).

  • Achas incrivel com 19 anos teres-te apaixonado por musicas dos anos 80? Eu tenho apenas 17 e é so o que oiço, sao musicas dos anos 80, oiço uma por outra dos tempos que correm mas mesmo o que gosto é deste tipo de musica. . . 80's 4ever

  • TUUUNE

  • wonderfull song

  • The Original was by Isley Jasper Isley and was members of the Isley Brothers and is a good version but i like this better. This got to No 1 for a reason but Isley Jasper Isley gain the songwriting credits/royalties

  • I can't remember this as a video at the time. Never has such a great song been allied to such a shitty vid

  • @tommiatkins

    This was Britain in the 80s. There wasn't any money to throw at videos, so the bands improvised, as seen here, also the Smiths, Madness, etc. You stink, man.

  • @ady10001 Umm. I was a teenager in the 80's. Plenty of good vids. Meatloaf, Elkie brooks, Alsion Moyet. They might not have had the sheen of a lady gaga video, but just twatting about in front of a camera like this is a bad video, and its a bad video for 1986.

    The real reason its bad is the housmartins made some good music, but they were bunch of christian nerds

  • hammer!weisst.

  • fat boy slim look like a dorky version of keither sutherland in this

  • @MrCresil

    Fat Boy Slim is a character Kiefer does. Or was it the other way around...

  • wow fat boy slim sure was young in this

  • Ruined??? Its genius!

  • Oh DAMN They Ruined This Sonq.

    Isley Jasper Isley Did Dha Damn Thinq.

    ii Dont Kno What This Is.

  • @FartyMcBoogers

    I prefer this version, just my opinion. But the massage on the original one is a way better....but they have the better voice =S

  • I thought That the Isley brothers covered this song. 'cause this version is much older

  • @FartyMcBoogers this version is miles better than the original - theres a reason why this version charted at number 1 worldwide and the original only got to 51 on the us top 100 and didnt even chart in any other country

  • @FartyMcBoogers You can stand on your point, but don't be rude.
