[ThomCat69]

must be a west mids thing, love the vid. Remember the song so well in so many mids clubs. Your barking mad but so funny. Cheers for the memory.

[phoeberenee]

brilliant video....made me laugh lots...loved the song..my older brother had it and i used to steal it :)

[RichUK2]

Used to love hearing this song (and Kiss Me) at a club in Smethwick, can't remember the name of the place, was more like a big pub than a club. Always wondered why so many people had never heard of it, never realised it was mainly big in the West Mids.

[stuartwilkins1]

mate I was only on here after the song but this is hilarious cant stop watching it.Where you from you sound local ?

[xavivere]

Mucho arteee! I was thinking on this song for ages!!! I was like 8 years old when it came out and I love it. I was laughing out loud with the video!

[lottietotty]

Oh my god - never mind the poor video quality, because the content was PURE unadulterated quality!

This has enriched my life more than any other YT clip.

I want to participate in a sequel but maybe not topless coz I'm a girly - and just got banned from myspace for a hint of a nip thru a fishnet bodystocking,

Lemme come to (not in) the monkey house.

It must be your animal magnetism Duke 69!

I used to dance to this at Wag with the likes of Rusty Egan LOL

[TPEKHH]

[k3esy]

[alieenvspreDATA]

[BlackcountryMatt]

I I ME ME RAP RAP RAAP! LOVE THIS

[vermillion303]

I think it's "I, I, me, me, grab, grab, grab", actualy, but who cares? It's a class track!

[dollyboy01]

crap video, very poor

[herb2578]

the dj's and bouncers were always wearey about this song cause it was just an excuse for blokes to jump around and fight with each other

[XCERTIFICATE]

been there done that

[Kradlum]

God, this brings back some memories. The Barn in Worcester on a Saturday night. I'll never figure out how we always got in there, since we were all 16, but saying "21" in a deep voice seemed to fool the bouncers.

[mezsotv]

By the way, looking at how this kid dresses and dances and his pokey little semi-detached house he must be from Chelmsley Wood.

I live in Canada now and have never come across anyone like those off "The wood"

[EmayaTaku]

excuse em moi. i COME from Chelmsley wood! theres nothing wrong with us!

[lizzielh]

what a twatty thing to say

[numberstation]

Personally,I'm glad he fucked off to Canada.

[lizzielh]

poor fucking canadians

[mezsotv]

[numberstation]

Oh,it must have been SO awful for you suffering those dreadful oiks in Chelmsley.Why,only the other day,they'd ran out of foie gras at Somerfield.....I was crying into my Pimms...

[mezsotv]

They played this in some night club in Torquay (LITTLE BRUM), early 80's, you could tell all the Brummies, we were the only ones that got up and danced. All the so called "trendy" boy scousers and cockneys had never heard of it, Twats, !!!!! Mind you i did dance like a mong.

[vermillion303]

I'm a cockney and I knew it from John Peel / Annie Nightgale / Janice Long radio shows in the eighties.

[Torquayqueen]

They used to play this song at Starbase in Torquay when I was about 14. Have still got the original 12" Top song, and im not from the West Midlands!

[sam70bham]

MASSIVE Brum tune. Along the same lines as Kiss Me by Stephen Tintin Duffy... aah. To be 13 again

[AdeC1969]

fuck me i danced to this on the top floor at eddies #8 brings back some fond memories

[hezz321]

This was always played at Edwards in B'ham - guaranteed to fill the floor! Love it.

[Ragerty64uk]

shit where did my youth go this is track that takes me back

[1abrian45]

quality, did`nt no the rest of the country missed this amazing song, they used to play this with spear of destiny,smiths etc @ rumours in queens road nuneaton on a wednesday night...anyone remember that who went to tech(college)...............th­is was the one song EVERYONE hit the dance floor for ,alternatives,trendies,goths..­.whatever& we all just went mad.................

[vermillion303]

Sorry, I meant to give a positive thumbs up to this comment and hit the wrong button...I was a goth in the eighties and loved this track.

[numberstation]

I've just cancelled your negative,and harmony in the universe is now restored;)

[djbethell]

we all dance like titty in the midlands... so much energy! Lol! (Roll on Leamington Spa)

[lizzielh]

I have the 12" of this (and Tintin Kiss me) it must be a Midland thing - God I love it!!

[leer2569]

Great dance loving it back in the day we just used to run round the hall while a few moon stomped in the middle claa tune

[Barcrest]

LOL I have this video on my jukebox now as it was the only version i could find... Dude this is awsome.

[MIMNED]

Could somebody sell me a copy of the cd "Mastermix Classic Cuts VOL. 32"? Or,better than nothing,copy for me the cd? There is included this song!

[brich3770b]

Did he learn that dance in....................

The Tower ballroom.(closed and sold off)

Always used to play this track back to back with Tin Tin. Absolute classic, defo a midland thing, i moved to Manchester 8 years ago and they hadnt got a clue what it was.

[BlackcountryMatt]

ppl in the midlands must have a great taste in music, if this is just a midlands thing! i'm 18 and i love this song. I used to listen to it on 100.7 heart fm 'kick up the 80's' i wish they would put it back on. i hate 'club classics' they are the same songs every week!

[leer2569]

Yeah defo a Midlands thing back in the day always played with Tin Tin Kiss Me.

Class tune

[ebonyguy69]

[purpleglitterkitten]

That guy (the singer from Razorlight surely?!) is genius! Love this song. Everytime I go to a 'disco' where they take requests, I ask them to play this. If they have it, I also ask the DJ to sell it to me. The lowest asking price so far - £500. It's rare, so if you have a copy LUCKY YOU!!!

[BlackcountryMatt]

I've got it on cd! i copied it off my moms record

[worcsredpete]

great record by animal magnet, found the 12 inch version in my garage the other day. remember dancing to it at the barn nightclub (now images) in worcester around 1982/83

Big record in Tamworth too - early 80's.

[dagangsta32]

[stilllovelyandwarm]

Brilliant.

[jackiemann20]

[ftrade]

yeh matty h i remember snobs!!happy days when you had to dress smart to get in.i used to go to the kaleidoscope first though.i mainly remember this song from the cornbow discos in halesowen.

[Pholl61]

hehe the karaoke DJ @ Spring Cottage in Pelsall plays this tune all the time!!

[pocketminx]

Class tune!! Brings back fond memories of School Club at Aldridge Comp, nr Walsall. Definitely a Midlands song as anyone i've met since has never heard of it. I must dig out my vinyl as i had this on 12" somewhere. Fab!

[mattyh1971]

Remember snobs!!

£1 a pint brilliant!,

Sam wellers,sinatra's,costamonger(­agh!),classic song,just got a copy off ebay - £7!!

here we are in a sound proof room............!!

[emnonwodog]

My copy warped in the 1984 summer sun. They occasionally play it at cheeky monkey in wolves on a friday night.

[andygeneva]

Someone please post a version with better sound quality!!!! This was my youth!! (an expat Black Country boy!)

[GUMP41]

i remember Sam Wellars / barrel organ / Eddies/ the shit hole known as Costamunger. does any one remember a band called doctor phibes from brum the singer was hot

[peggygravel1]

Well that finally explains all the blank looks I've had over the years whenever I've mentioned this track - seems I just moved (originally from nr Kiddy) too far north!!

[MarchesCyderCircle]

You dance like titty...nice one go for it..reminds me of me..fantastic track..think they used to play it at The Camelot..over Walsall way.

[Barcrest]

My mate biker mark used to strip his shirt off and dance to this in Edwards N.O.8 or anywhere we could get it played really. I deleted it off my hard drive ages ago and i so wish i had it now.

Did you guys know exposure rock cafe is back open fridat and sat???

[ellimere]

A Brummie tune for sure. I usually need about ten feet of dancing space for this song as I pogo around so much. They used to play it at Eddies so much in the 90s. One of those songs that is guaranteed to get you dancing. Last year when my friend & I danced to this in a pub we got asked afterwards if we were Irish dancers! :confused: :D

[frogmarshall]

Edwards No.7, Edwards No. 8,Powerhouse, Millionaires ,SNOBS , anyone remember Jinxs in Dudley and Dudleys Wine Bar all Played Animal Magnet, oh and of course the Hen 'n Chicks on a wednesday night!

[Adedut66]

Big Power House (Hurst Street) anthem quality.

[joonsy386]

it was big in Wolves too!

[kopfella]

oh yes, sam wellars, kaliedescope, then boogies, then the chippy at the end of john bright street with the little ginger bloke serving who gave you a volley of fucks if you upset him. great record too!

[eggnation]

defo brummie thing, hen and chicks fridays, this, kiss me and time warp,good old days.

[sukthispaki]

lol...boogies,edwards!!

[sukthispaki]

[CornishBreeze]

[tippertruck]

Animal magnet

[tippertruck]

This was definently a Brummie tune as everyone else l have ever spoken to has never heard of this tune. Were animal magnet a Brummie band?

[tippertruck]

[BrightonBabe]

[numberstation]
