NEON NEON - I Told Her on Alderaan / Trick for Treat

[dahleric74]

@elmothesex i guess his comment came down, cause John didnt live in Northern Ireland, his car was made there cause the English government help fund him to create jobs at a time when England was at a low. John was born in Detroit, buried in Troy, Mi, outside of Detroit. He designed the GTO, was a chairman at GM..i guess you should learn you history before you speak on someone from the D..jerkoff.

Dude looks just like Delorean too...Detroit forever.

[Benhur2001]

Neon Neon really needs to make another album. I know Gruff Rhys says that's not happening because it's a one concept band/album but, damn, this is too good to pass up. Not doing a second Neon Neon album would be like Damon Albarn stopping after the first Gorillaz.

[TooHuman]

Can somebody be a really nice person and handle the lyrics of Trick for Treat to a foreign fan of Neon Neon with a poor english listening skills? :D I will forever love you :D

[hottieonebillion]

neon neon rocks

[steezturkey]

pony tail

[SlixteeSlix]

why Alderaan? isnt that off Star Wars, I'm probably being a simpleton but i dont see the link

[kapowitsme]

@SlixteeSlix Don't worry I'm equally confused.

[mitchmitchmitchhh]

i think the original lyrics were not "i told her on alderaan"

i think "chillin with obi wan" seems to fit better...

[zherui]

@mitchmitchmitchhh i think "i'm chillin out with miss saigon" seems to fit better, but then it would make no sense at all

[DChaundy1]

Love this tune:D

[MBainbridge3]

Thats no moon....

[HatticusRex]

Love love love this

[Sumthing4theWeekend]

I looooooooove Gruff Rhys !!!!!!

[xNightwishx1000]

just 1 problem alderaan has no moons. I no im a nerd lols :) oh well still i love the song :P

[ExodusPaddy]

This song would have been even bigger in the early 80's, i mean seriously its scarface music and i luvs it, top tune!

[vchoroco]

to dsparks45, you nailed it... I kept racking my brain trying to figure out who that voice was and yes... sound like eddie money... awesome song though...

[jamiegotmadskill]

Is that Megan Fox??

[jaysin77]

@jamiegotmadskill

just look for the ugly thumb.

[dsparks45]

he sounds a little like eddie money

[tonidmc]

DeLorean Style!

[dpdog00]

Stainless... you're so cleaver!

ponytale<3333

[mysticsack]

this is neon indian?

[uemfbc]

No, its Neon Neon. They "tagged" the song wrong.

[TheMunchTeam]

PonyTale is the best film in the world

[DOTAN78]

nice video

[w5m1n]

great film thats how i found this song

[09minka]

Great song! Check out this snowboard film 8 minutes inn and dream on!!!

[Andyakaherman]

PonyTale? :)

[09minka]

yep! sorry... ;-))

[w5m1n]

thats how i found the song, action horse films

[SpeakerCombo]

Is her... Marisa Tomei???

[badjackbrowning5]

I was thinking When in Rome but Men at Work is even better.

[stvryl]

Neon Neon are quickly becoming my new favourite band. They have a unique sound.x

[koobon]

yeah... unique like Duran Duran

but it's still great song

[Outlander999]

I TOLD HER ON ALDERAAN cool;

TRICK FOR TREAT terrible.

Neon Neon seems a band good only for some singles.

[Dase1982]

You didnt get the concept.

[wtfiswiththiscrap]

what an awesome band!!

[youboob1981]

I first heard this last April in HMV in Toronto. They were playing loud in the shop and I was hooked this song is awesome.............Love it.

[Risingson2]

lol (bis)

[chrismendiondo]

haha. now that i think of it...

[jonnyvivid]

John DeLorean is a legend

[vituperative]

lol

[DeadlySitups]

I just got it. The woman at the end, with the white bathrobe who leads Deloreon away, is a metaphor for coke. Lady Snow. No applause, please.

[kittylicker013]

@DeadlySitups *Applause* cause I was thinking it was some kind of mid-life crisis thing. But this makes more sense

[Foo3112]

This remonds me of something from 1987...don henley sort of. Great song

[romansandals]

Welcome back Har Mar, you rock!!

[nixonanon]

saw these at glastonbury :D

hooray for har mar superstar! :P

[Chudda123]

the girl in the hologram is hot

[DaMunchkinhead]

Just saw this on TV for the 1st time and had to see it again.. Nice =).

[CommunistMongoose]

its good but i dont get the last minute or so

[skipbreakfast]

It's a concept album.

[CCSofChocolatesville]

What a great pop song this is.

[razbizzle]

lmao

dollar bills

[morgiemooshine]

Trick for Treat was good by itself over a year ago:[

[supahypasonic]

that nothing else was goingon

[1234ech]

Completely in love with this song..

[notjawn]

It's like Peter Gabriel singing with Robert Plant's back-up band. I love it.

[chrissikins]

fantastic1 the performance on the Mercury prize show sold it to me totally... "Be-Bop Deluxe " anyone?..and the squealing switch to "trick for treat" was way better live with Harr-Marr doing a head stand!! it killed!

[erickycaza]

Which is the third single?

Belfast

[sauly6]

that is just so good

why didnt they win mercury?

[ajlhunter]

listen to 'Seldom Seen Kid'- u'll understand

i'll admit neon neon deserved the mercury prize but ther can only one winner and elbow are just awesome

[rhubarb118]

i like it took a while to come round to it but its brill.

[sparky0370]

Not sure if I like this or not, sounds a tad like cheesy 80s American rock.

[mrsfry]

The album is based on the story of John Dolorean, the guy who founded the DMC motor company and screwed it all up coz he was a womaniser. Hence the 80s flavour to the tunes.

[TinSoldierMan]

"I Told Her on Alderaan" is great. "Trick for treat" is shit, though. It sound like motherfucking american hip hop... why Gruff why???

[diegonlr]

Find the song trick for treat absolute boring:S didnt like the video at all

[blkzodiac]

i only like it from 2:41 and onwards tho

but thass just me

[steveprowland]

Great song(s) and an awesome album.

[audiodead]

Class song.

[deonplayground]

WOW that was cool, merging the two songs...

I thought I would see some Star Wars revival thing with this...guess I was wrong lol...nice video, though.

PS: Nice album too...on my playlist for a long time and still.

[RobertDoosh]

superb video. this record is fantastic and i hope gruff and bip take the spectacle to new york sometime in the near future. fantastic record -- easily one of the greatest of 2008.

[nofollowups]

is that Har Mar throwing loot on the girl?

[lexrecords]

Hell yeah!

[ColinSuperFurry]

nice video but gruff should be in it

[Haz86]

where's gruff?

[romanbellicdrivescab]

Help me obi wan kenobi, you're my only hope

[papershreds]

awesome song, awesome video!
