  • The ultimate ' I hate work' song !!!

  • i listen in 1982....so lovely

  • 20 november naar concert van Fischer z in alkmaar. heerlijk die oude muziek. Tijdloos

  • @dwarrel137 Bedankt voor de tip, wellicht ga ik!

  • loved this song since i was 17...in 2001. Good music is timeless.

  • One of my favorite albums back in the day. I played it incessantly. Thanks for bringing back the memories.

  • Strange to find this on youtube .. did love it when I was around ? 17 ???

  • @Dubconferencedotorg You were 17 around the time I also was. I liked the ... salad album. I had stated then that the Fisher Z would make a great career. I was wrong; one of the few predictions of mine which totally went the wrong way. Which is a pity, as the talent was in place. Friendly, E

  • Strange to find this on youtube 

  • 1++ John Watts. Grossartig !

  • ThnXXX for sharing! LUV Fisher Z ^_^

  • @dimedelyma

    Ik ben nu net 22 en ik vind dit ook een kek plaatje. Het nummer roomservice is ook mooi

  • My 1979's Greek LP version is different. Especially the music between the words. What version is this? One of my favorite songs ever!

  • maravilloso

    

  • bundeswehr

    

  • This song got good radio airplay in Lima, Peru, around 1984-85.. I automatically assumed it was from the U.S (is this band even known in America?)....Little did I know...Nice song, good summer memories.

  • ben nu bijna 50 jaar , het mooiste is ik was 16 toen dit al vet was,

  • @MrWoots1 I dont understand what you say , but you can see Fischer Z in Kiel for nothing at the "Kieler Woche"

  • @MrWoots1 hoi ja ik net 51 en leuk die oude dingen weer eens te horen , maar ik kan het modern van tegenwoordig ook wel hebben lol

  • legendary!!!

  • Does anyone know where I can find notes for keyboard of this song? Thank you!

  • FisherZ - one of my all-time-favourites. Great music !

    BTW

    M.O.T means "The Ministry of Transport test",  i think.

    This is an annual test for your your car's safety, exhaust emissions etc...

  • And yes, of course a big thanks for posting this song!!!

  • Remember hearing the first three 'real' Fisher-Z LPs in the early/mid-1980ies, great music, timeless lyrics. Fun-tastic!

    Btw, what is the 'MOT'? I was always wondering ...

  • Not sure where you are from, but MOT means a certain certificate you need to keep your car on the road. In The Netherlands we have something similar.

  • HAMMER zeitlos geil !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Stunning, but 30 years ago, just a kid, I never realised I would end up living this song...

  • Shit happens, I guess that's one of those annoying facts of life.

  • Long time ago, my best time. Yeah

  • brings back memories

  • awesome

  • Saw this group at Southampton Uni back around 1979 - great night!

  • Very good single. Pity that it didn't chart...

  • GREAT SONG... Big Man Budda still still is my favourite

  • I have not heard this song in ages. I was a teenager when it came out. This, Depeche Mode, the Cure, the Fixx....before it all became too commercial.

  • I find myself constantly referring back to this era, when music was political, conscience was social and thought was independent. Lyricists like Cy Curnin and John Watts challenged a growing collective banality of greed long before Geldof and Bono saw the commercial gains to be had...

  • You're absolutely right, Bono is just a banal imposter in my opinion.

  • MEGA-SONG !!!!!

  • yeah it is

  • kan je mij die opname sturen CSSPWN ? . Mijn ID is Cassandrakhan (You Tube). Danke!!!

  • One of the best albums EVER.

  • echt een mooi stukje kunst :)

  • Just Love it !

  • 5*****!

  • I have seen John Watts in concert in Ghent, but he only sang 1 FZ song :( and not this one

  • HAMMERGEIL !!!!!!

  • Fisher Z, all songs are great, but *the worker* is the most, beautyfull song, forever in my heart, it is the song for the teens 70/80 and we never forget this sound !!!! G R E A T

  • I can only agree!!! When I hear this one I always remember the best time of my life, teenage life (first love, etc.).

  • I love this song. I love it, brilliant

  • great song!!Greetings from holland Enerpac.

  • Were a Brit-Dutch band

  • And Watts was specifically from High Wycombe, as was Nigel Harrison (Blondie) and Howard Jones. Yawn.

  • Great British talent with unfulfilled potential entirely due to John Watts ego!!

  • Son Britanicos,el tema es del 79 y estaban liderados por JOHN WATTS.

  • ehrliche musik endlich mal wieder...

  • This song brings back memories of Summer of 1985 in Lima, muy buena canción y melodía. Cette chanson est belle. Can anyone tell me if this band is german? Alguien sabe si son alemanes? (Ich spreche nicht Deutsche, nur Spanischen und englisch)

  • this band is from either australia or new sealand

  • No, they're from England.

  • what a great band!! i was only 12 or 13 when first listened these guys by the early 80's. they were one of my favorites.

    but here in spain people used to listen to stupid local "modern" techno bands. we were loosing our time, sure...

    what are fischer-z doing nowadays?

  • First heard this on the radio back in 79 or so, later buying a 1970 M.G.B, and finding it was a 69 model, go on it almost goes with the song.

    Thank's I enjoyed going back to some happy times.

  • Gimbras is a workaholic...

  • Granda clown

  • This music is dedicate to all Gimbras in the world.

    Every company in the world have one. You can easely recognize one by the smell of "labour sweat" they have....

  • Gimbras vai mas é bulir

  • All hail Gimbras man!!!

  • I bought this single when it came out - I can't find it in my collection anymore, however, the original vynal single had a train in the middle which just went round and round at 45 rpm - you dont get that sort of tactile input anymore.....

  • no tienen el video es lo mejor que me gusta de todas las canciones

  • 'k mis wel de bewegende beelden (originele videoclip), maar beresterk nummer, zag watts op genk on stage, maar helaas, teveel nieuwe nummers !

  • Iemand had een heel mooie clip van dit liedje uit Toppop op deze site gezet, maar die is er plots vanaf gehaald, waarschijnlijk auteursrechten.. :( gelukkig op tijd opgeslagen op flv bestand.

  • Inderdaad! Ik had hem ook op mijn Hyves profiel staan omdat ik dit een heel goed nummer vind. Maar hij is verwijderd. Onzin natuurlijk, want die opname zou nooit op dvd worden uitgebracht!

  • Precies niemand die er nadeel aan zou hebben aan die zeldzame beelden. :(

    Is er toevallig iemand die hem op MP3 bestand heeft bewaard? Mijn flv bestand is niet zo mooi scherp. Degene die al die oude video-opnames hier op zette heette nlcorp geloof ik, en is nu onvindbaar..

  • Stupenda canzone.

    Some radio channel transmitted it also here in Italy in late 70's and 80's

  • Hi Peter88isbackagain, diese verspielte Version hab ich 1979 oder so mal in einer Disco gehört, war nicht auf der WORDSALAD, wo gab es denn diese Version? Kommt ziemlich gut...

  • in German we would call such a man : Malocher.... klingt auch

    gut

  • :-D richtig! geh mal malochen ^^

  • He wrote this about his father, apparently. Great song, very Britpop.

  • Geniaal nummer, gelukkig eindelijk geupload op YouTube!

  • Hey Inolvidable este temazo, la vi en DISCO CLUB tb soy Peruano aunque hoy estoy metido en el Metal! siempre esta cancion me encanto demasiado!

  • a que mola?, a mi parienta no le gusta, y eso que la estuve buscando mucho tiempo. viva Disco Club

  • Really liked this band from those years ago. Still have the old vinyls! Great memories!

  • Excelente tema...Recuerdo cuando pasaban esta canción en Radio Z Rock&Pop en el verano de 1999 y la verdad que me impactó....Soy de Lima Perú...

  • Esta canción se hizo famosa a través del programa DISCO CLUB en canal 7 entre los años 1979 y 1980, no la pasaban por la radio;el video era muy sencillo, el grupo tambien, la musica espectacular.

  • Sí, esta canción es de esos años 79 y 80 pero sonó fuerte cuando nacía "Z Rock&Pop" en el programa de Juanito Vargas ....Y te aseguro que "Fischer Z" captó muchos seguidores en aquel momento también.........

  • EStupenda canción, buena banda!!!

  • EStupenda canción, buena banda!!!

  • Good song with a fine bass

  • Thanks for putting this on YT :-)

  • Wat een geweldig nummer!!. En dan dat onvergetelijke bas-loopje....... Wat was er toch een boel creativiteit in de 70's.

  • Eindelijk ! Naar dit nummer heb ik lang uitgekeken. Prachtig ! Hartelijk dank, Peter !

  • Great song and band. Brings me old memories when i was a child.
