[yung21king]

Amazing

[sausackable]

One of the Top-Ten-Earworms of the 90´s.

[TheBublli]

such a dirty song

[GryffindorFawkes2]

I met Iggy back in 1981. He was eating something out of a styrofoam box. He grabbed a fist full of baked beans and threw them at me. I had beans in my jacket pocket when I got home. I wonder if this songs about me.... lol

[nimounimou]

makes me wanna take my clothes off instantly.

[Eriuhn27]

I luv this freakin song!!!!!

[zebraattack]

Steve Jones (from Sex Pistols fame) is the guy playing the xylophone on this. Always thought that was kinda funny.

[greenbrae7]

Occasionally one hears hauntingly beautiful music with a certain rhythm & mood which creates a profound feeling, a purple aura. You know the feeling, a chidlike infusion of wonderment, taking you back to adolescence or childhood when anything was possible. Few songs generate the depth of nostalgia, taking me to that purple, twilight threshhold as this does. Len Barry's drums track from "1-2-3" melds in as though it was made for it, similarly, for me, to the way the organ does in Van's "Gloria".

[travlynn08]

mixture of 70's and 90's. Never met a song like this before; except monster mash.

[jerzeefranky3475]

EMPIRE RECORDS REPRESENT!!!!!...

[drstamas]

This song is really awful and yes, I took the five minutes of my life that ill never get back, finding this song just to put it out there that this song sucks!

[TheRooBabe]

@drstamas I've never known an idiot like you before. OH WAIT, the internet is full of your kind.

[LouiKazooie]

I'm so confused. It sounds like Bowie...

[sk8boardn101]

[chicotower]

I have this on an "Empire Records" album. It's the best song on the album!

[ttheaney]

Let's not think of it in Charlie's Angels. Empire Records - that's better.

[kradqulo]

¡TEMAZO!! de mi juventud

[MegaMikss]

P E R F E C T !!!!!!

[luisaye88]

Simplemente me encanta esta cancion

[j58roldan]

So sad when i see so many people relate such a great song with a piece of crap like Charlies Angels.

[sexygurlie001]

@j58roldan shut up just be glad people acknowledge it

[meowmix1012]

@j58roldan That's just too funny, but it's TRUE!!!

[CedeestLaBourge]

@j58roldan That's what you think. It's not everyone's mind.

[rnoka]

@j58roldan women... :)

[ness968]

@j58roldan I relate it to sugar rush series :D

[CalamityCain]

@j58roldan

I think that's a good thing. Even people who actually like this move (gotta admit, I watch it sometimes, just for shits and giggles - and because Drew Barrymore is ultra hot!) can't help but confess, that this song alone makes the buildup to the finale easily the most memorable scene in this shitfest of a movie ;-)

Also: Justin Theroux was fuckin' BADASS!

Other than that: Yeah, the movie pretty much sucks.

[piratebri]

@j58roldan and now they will even more since you're the top rated comment :/

[medolol]

charlies angels :)

[TheMetalVagabond]

wow didn't think this song was this old 1994, cool song, never forgot it

[Gioagla]

Hendrix would say " : man! ... this is good !!!

[StinkySasquatch]

i would rewind this part on charlie's angels just to hear this!

[M0oTang]

THIS SONG REMINDS ME OF TIM AND ERIC awesome show.. look up tim and eric petite feet hahahahaa

[dumbtruck67]

@M0oTang It does sound like it!!!!!

[entrepreneurme1]

Fantastic

[Naushop1]

Song reminds me of the weekend that the Blizzard of '96 hit. That storm shut things down from Washington DC to Boston.

[kneeyuckah]

[LonEr4evah]

timeless...great song!

[DeannSK1]

[kristelandreajonas]

CHARLIE'S ANGELS?! :O

[TheIncredibleD1701]

My dad used to play this in the car when I was little. Along with "Another One Bites the Dust" this is one of the earliest tunes I can remember listening to XD

[notdonebefore]

@TheIncredibleD1701 Omg my dad played those same songs just today when I was in his car!

[Kissmy3713]

I don't get why people who don't even know each other fight over youtube...

Just listen to the dam music and be happy =)

[NaturalBornLifeEnder]

[Dasvidagnia]

[TheGoaBase]

my childhood!!!

[boarderhoppinguy]

My bar will have music like this playing...



[gummyboots]

Heard this in a porno*

[horrormetalfan25]

@gummyboots that porno must have had the best porno soundtrack of all time

[gummyboots]

@horrormetalfan25 Of Course.

[RantUp]

@gummyboots which porno



[gummyboots]

@RantUp I forgot the name, chick was Zeina Heart though.

I have a thing for French canadian chicks lol.

[gummyboots]

Heard this is a porno.

[boarderhoppinguy]

@gummyboots i call.... bs

[gummyboots]

@boarderhoppinguy It was some French-Canadian chick going to town on a dildo.

[daypeshmodd]

@gummyboots No offence, but wtf are you talking about? And you say you have a thing for F C chicks...like Quebecers, for instance? What exactly do you know about them, out of curiousity? Carefull what you say, I know MUCH more than you do. Btw, Zeina Heart is not a FC name, not one bit.

If I sound pissed off, it's just I fail to see the connection between Edwyn Collins, your 'thing' for FC chicks, Zeina smth & that dildo story. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this all sounds like macho bs.

[gummyboots]

@daypeshmodd NEWS ALERTS, porn stars USUALLY don't use their real names.

and also, it's just some french canadian chick playing with a fucking dildo, how is that macho? macho would be saying "I fucked like 27 girls to this song" I said I watched a porno, and this song just happened to be playing in it. Do you not believe FC chicks are in porn? there are pornstars from EVERYWHERE.

[daypeshmodd]

@gummyboots I know all that. It's just that I read what u wrote on this page & didn't want to read the rest, since I felt insulted enough for myself & my people. I didn't care about the rest, and I wondered why u we're even talking about all this on an Edwyn Collins' page, whom I've always loved & admired. I didn't see the connection between what you just told me & A girl like you. Now I do.

No harm done. Let's bury the hatchet. Really!

[gummyboots]

@daypeshmodd It's good, I sometimes don't remember some things are more offensive to others.

[daypeshmodd]

@gummyboots All's cool

I've questions for u. Are u a fan of this song and/or Edwyn solo in general? Noticed a lots people are here only for this song. Or are u also an Orange Juice fan? Me, I started out as an OJ fan, and btw I badly want the 7 CD OJ BOXSET ! & book & all the rest!

Also for ALL who can answer: A Girl Like You's supposed to be a tribute to Iggy Pop. What does it say about Iggy?

Edwyn C's site's nice. Go see it!

PS: PEOPLE STOP calling it 'Never known...'! Learn real title!

[tomkeoma]

hab den song immer in einem film gehört habe aber nie gegkuckt wie es heißt habe es schon lange nich mehr gehört

[DicKK90]

[PlannedObsolescence]

[crookedrain333]

7 people still listen to NSYNC

[mrnobodie1]

Sure, he sounds like Iggy, and they both sound like Bowie!

[hosusto]

for my girlfriend!!! Lidi.

[Muisc4ThaSoul]

why do people feel the need to shaRE who the bands/singers sound like. as if we dont have ears for our selves.

This Song is awsome, tho for some reason it does give me a 70's a vibe, like this song should have been in Austin Powers. or maybe the 2 came out around the same time, and I am connecting them because It reminds me of my youth.

[Hanakow]

@Muisc4ThaSoul IM AGREE WITH YOU! but...they can express their selfs! so...they spoil the party :( , we can ignore it...we dont have another option...saaaad but true.

[skold18]

Anyone else think he sounds alot like Iggy Pop??

[Spinudel]

Wow, ich danke dir. Habe schon ewig nach dem Lied gesucht. *knuddel* Du bist für mich der Held des Tages. ^^

Spinudel
