Beautiful South Perfect10

[iAMScootaG]

PAUL HEATON'S A LEGEND! UP THE BLADES!

[CRAFTYMARCUZ]

Class Tune Pure EAR sex !!

[melissa84996]

I love this guy who sings this I think he's funny.

[iAMScootaG]

@melissa84996 Paul Heaton? Hes a LEGEND! 

[crapple009]

@ 0:26- very cute. I bought this (my very first B.S.) album upon first hearing this song. There was no Buzzcocks to it in my case. The Beautiful South on top of their game. Period.

[p74ggy]

thumbs up if you got thumbs then

[elrudhol]

thumbs up if your childhood brought you here

[Spankabuttux]

@elrudhol Bad timing...

[elrudhol]

@Spankabuttux bad timing?

[elrudhol]

good song

[lilsaprano123]

This song reminds me of Julie Dickerson Williams, she looks great.

[Ayrez7uk]

She is singing about penis's I believe.

[aspirin02]

I've heard this in Dublin pub one day, and just had to find it. Brilliant. Just brilliant.

[EuanEK]

This song is just so braw I love it

[Spankabuttux]

By the way, it sickens me that some prick tells you to vote their comment up cos you saw a TV programme, and at last count 53 tossers did just that. I despair. The average person is a moron.

[limatedman]

@Spankabuttux Exactyl :) Finally, someone else who realises that a top rated comment consisting of the brain dead obvious command (thumbs up!!) in relation to a mainstream cultural reference, is not worthy of being thumbd up. It takes wit, insight, intelligence and maybe even a bit of humor. Over all its effort. It has to be deserved.

[rickydickydobee]

NKJVH LNY RUT7RT5;JO';

[tmamam]

Brill. Makes You feel good whatever. Love u for that xxxxxx

[NickInDetroit]

I absolutely love this song. Jacqui Abbott is SO startlingly pretty and sexy here. This is definitely one for the ages!

[Aerenmerksmw2]

this song so legndary

[Decrosiana]

Okay who gives a flying monleys backside about football it has sod all to do with the video so just shut the hell up about it.

[ninoovcov]

@Decrosiana....apoligize the song is great aswell, ;)

[ninoovcov]

@mufcevo,,,man u fans are just spoilt brats that haven't got the balls to be on the losing side, man u are a money grabbing organisation that are enjoying having mugs like you spend loads of money going to watch them. A true man would support the team where he was born.

[kitkat4819]

@ninoovcov my thoughts exactly i support motherwell sick of seeing buses of glory hunters leaving our town to watch the old firm

[PhantomBolt]

Wow, haven't heard this in years - it's still as amazing as I remember.

[kingkm2]

its filmed at a hospital no wonder they are singing about time takin its toll on their bodies tutut

[Nessquick2458]

i remember when i first saw this i was like HOLY S**T THATS CHANDLER BING! of course i was a kid tho!

[limatedman]

Holy shit, had no idea this was the beautiful south!

[MultiDean75]

is this the guy from elbow? ;-)

[vernonadebisi]

just to clarify: hes talking about fatties, shes talking about the size of your snake right?

[begood20000]

You will never see people this ugly with a number 1 hit. Not since xfactor no

[McGooook]

@begood20000

what the hell are you talking about.

[wr10wr36wr60]

@begood20000 if ur on about the singers being ugly then, you should realise that looks dont matter when you can make great music like this, rather than now when you get people plastered in make up and carnt sing a word and need loads of effects to help their voice seem less like a strangled cat

[begood20000]

@wr10wr36wr60 I agree but you must be ugly, other wise you would make a comment like that

[mufcevo]

@begood20000

Bollocks.

[TheTechController]

@wr10wr36wr60 i agree.. too much empahsis today on looking good so the not so pretty boys and girls hold back. no substitute for talent. i blame the illuminati, those fux have ruined everything including the soles of us ordinary folk

[ImpartialDawn]

@TheTechController There is no fucking thing as the Illuminati you complete twat.

[TheTechController]

@ImpartialDawn whatever ring worm101.  next thing you'll be telling me santa clause isnt real or something. haha.. please, you dreamers are pathetic.

[ImpartialDawn]

@TheTechController How am I pathetic, I'm the one who DOSEN'T believe in the Illuminati.

[TheTechController]

@ImpartialDawn exactly

[ImpartialDawn]

@TheTechController Exactl - ey ;)

[EuroRhodes]

The guy singing reminds me of David Hewlett.

[funkymcmunky]

his suit and trainers reminds me of johnny vaughans "pub shoes"

[TheRoyalSnail]

Looks like nick griffin 

[fireeater999cmcc]

Does the girl remind anyone else of Dr. Cox's wife in Scrubs?

[MaggieACharva]

Fat Friends brought me here too.

[Llewellyn1775]

the guy reminds me of Castle... :)

[BejnXander]

I had the greatest hits played to me when I was a child. Listening to all these classic songs don't half make me nostalgic :)

[cockshield]

THE ultimate song for chubby chasers everywhere... no fucking question!

[ginola091]

Does anyone else think Heaton's acting and comic timing in this video is simply exceptional? Those little eyebrow raises are Hancock at his best.

[the1treehouse1kid]

Grew up to this song, but managed to completely forget about it. How?

[jodiehendy]

i love her body especially the lies... love it xxxx

[2k10JD]

This song was so badass my rubix cube fell off my desk and completed itself, neighbors called the police and they got arrested, my windows broke and had to buy a mac, pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ʎɯ oʇ sıɥʇ pıp, my cat barked, I have to change my pants, made people miss the like button, mom walked in and I switched to porn, it became my neighbors favorite song, hitler got his gas bill , my water turned into wine, and I want M0:00RE. is this good enough to be thumbed up? You stupid thumbs up twats!

[MrAmishal]

@2k10JD hahaha



[wontakisun]

I have grown up to this day thinking the chorous lyrics are "i love her butt, especially the line" haha.

[Madman525]

Thumbs up if you found this after watching Buzzcocks.

[crapple009]

@Madman525 I can honestly say I did not and still do not know about the Buzzcocks connection. That's something else.

[adamc1407]

7 out of 10 people in the UK own a Beautiful South album... Why isn't it more?

[2k10JD]

@adamc1407 the other 3 out of 10 have the internet, so they don't need to own an album =)

[nisuli]

Just saw my first never mind the buzzcocks and stumbled into this song. Awesome series and awesome song <3. Greetings from Finland BTW

[FILARAKI4]

cause we love our love in defferent sizes...!

[Think533]

who is the person holdin the swiffer sweeper on the right upper hand side

[Spankabuttux]

So she's all "never mind, he has a big cock, I'll just have to deal with that"? Ich don't think so.

[SockCooker01]

@Spankabuttux - Actually she's saying that his size doesn't matter to her either "Even at my door, with a poor, poor four, ain't no man can replace!" She loves him and accepts him just the way he is - the same he does with her. It's about a committed relationship with two people who love each other just as they are, it's the person on the inside that they love.

[algerbraistj65]

@SockCooker01 sweet:-) , I said pretty much the same thing a few weeks ago, but some pepes are commited to there point of view ,LOL

[bassjunkie85]

@SockCooker01 Too rite mate.. BRAVO that Man..

[plophyr]

come on guys figure it out if that is his dad he would be too young to have a you tube account

[MrsNoelFieldingXo]

Fat friends<3

[algerbraistj65]

Sakes.. this song is about you Love who you Love, simple as that,

[Spankabuttux]

What am I expected to swallow exactly? The man is all "I don't care that you are a bit overweight" and the woman is saying "As long as you have a big cock I don't care"? If you think it is about that, fine. Carry on. I don't.

[PhoenixAvenging]

@Spankabuttux i know what you can swallow beatch lol

[MoonEyes2k]

@Spankabuttux *shakes head* Yes. Exactly that. The song is about not caring if your partner doesn't fit the magazine 'this is how you're supposed to look' cliché. The bony Cosmo model, or the porn-movie stud.

Since you apperently haven't listened to the lyrics, what did YOU think it was about?

[Spankabuttux]

@MoonEyes2k Look up.

[MoonEyes2k]

@Spankabuttux *sigh* Being on top, she controls how much, and how fast. Which is fairly basic accomodation for a guy who's large.

[Spankabuttux]

@MoonEyes2k There are at most two references to dick size, but this song is fundamentally about body size, men and women...You can sigh all you want, it only makes you look like an arrogant twat.

[NickInDetroit]

@Spankabuttux Say what?

1) When he's at my gate, with a big fat 8

2) And even at my door, with a poor poor 4

3) If he's extra large well I'm in charge

4) If he's XXL well what the hell

That is exactly 4 references to dong size. And guess what, he made exactly 4 references to dress sizes.

Are you going to dig in like some religious nut or stop and think and learn somethink?

Do yourself a favour and read the lyrics.

[Spankabuttux]

@NickInDetroit Please explain how each is a cock reference, 1,2,3 and 4. Go for it.

[NickInDetroit]

@Spankabuttux Spanky, YOU are the only one here unable to see this. As I stated before, do yourself a favour and read the lyrics. I suspect that your attitude (Like a Seventeen year-old who has read almost NOTHING yet knows EVERYTHING) will carry you very far. But NOT in this argument. Read the posts. Look in a mirror. Watch the 700 club and learn to dig in with total passion with zero knowledge and even less insight. You apparently know everything and no one can teach you shit.

[Spankabuttux]

@NickInDetroit Read that back to yourself...I hope you were drunk.

[MoonEyes2k]

@Spankabuttux Made perfect sense to me. YOU, on the other hand, makes no sense at all. Clearly, you've been proven wrong, and you just keep resisting and nay-saying like a 5-year-old. 'I'm right and everyone else is wrong, because I SAY so. So there!'

[NickInDetroit]

@Spankabuttux Hope all you want and refuse to read something and learn something. You really ought to follow your calling. You would make a great evangelical preacher.

[Spankabuttux]

@NickInDetroit And you would make an exceptional dog turd lying in the road as a hero(me) walks by, chatting with my decent human friends, laughing at the detritus that is you, that considers itself above others. You can be wrong and not be an arsehole, try it.

[MoonEyes2k]

@Spankabuttux Well, I'd have to say that NickInDetroit said it rather well. The only arrogant twat here that *I* see is the guy that can't be bothered to read or listen to the lyrics, before stating that others are wrong.

[martmcphly]

when she says not every penny fits the slot, she's sayin he has a big dick.

[SuperSpeako]

Fucking hate thin people get some scran in ya and some sun light,you horrible boney twats.

[nobcheesy]

fucking hate fat people just lose the lard its not that difficult

[skymera07]

@ PBL187 cud b the name..thats gotta suck lol .. if not emo lol

[MarkoVanBastard]

@Spankabuttux Paul Heaton is singing about dress sizes, the girl is singing about cocks. Have a close listen, "if he's xxl then what the hell every penny don't fit the slot."

[Spankabuttux]

If she is singing about cock size why would she say "If he's extra large, well I'm in charge, I can work this thing on top"? That is a reference to weight.

[ptevonian]

Their voices have always blended so well.

[InnocenceExperience]

Reebok classics with a suit. Brilliant.

[TheHasselBoff]

the 90's had some of the best music!

[aleccourtney]

I met this guy at a hotel last night. I offered him some Absinthe but he smelt it and was like.. ''woah no. Maybe when I was younger'' haha.

[humanimpersonator]

@aleccourtney why are telling anyone this

[aleccourtney]

@humanimpersonator shh.

[Llewellyn1775]

the guy is kinda similar to Castle....

[gretchenfiebig]

This song is about loving someone for who they are. If you don't get it, then may you be happy for what you get...."especially the lies..."

[vodka114]

Its about penis sizes is'nt it?????

[MrScore21]

reebok classics. mint

[jamsta97]

hmm, nice reebok classics! :|

[18scotslad]

brings back my childhood. what an awesome song.

[masterreflex]

fucking tuuuuuunne!

[2010butchd]

@Spankabuttux hes about dress size shes about dicks

[Alathaea]

@Spankabuttux well all of her numbers are about his cock size

[Spankabuttux]

@Alathaea I would dispute that, it seems shallow.

[Alathaea]

@Spankabuttux "And if it's XXL, then what the hell, every penny don't fit the slot"

"Even at my door, with a poor poor four"

"and if it's a big fat eight"

etc. etc.

[Spankabuttux]

@Alathaea You are looking for something that isn't there, they are united in their beliefs, they are saying the same thing to each other. You've picked out those lines, what are the others? The others are lines that blow your idea out of the water. The entire point of the song is that they are telling each other that they love them despite the fact they aren't perfect. If The Beautiful South thought cock size as reason enough to dump someone fair enough, but I doubt it.

[Alathaea]

@Spankabuttux "When he's at my gate with a big fat eight/you wanna see the smile on my face/And even at my door/ with a poor poor four/there ain't no man can replace" "If he's extra large/.well I'm in charge/I can't work this thing on top/And if he's XXL well what the hell/every penny don't fit the slot" not to mention that a UK size 4 or 8 on a man would be nigh on anorexic so how would 8 be "big and fat". That you don't think this song can be about cock size and still be heartfelt is sad.

[Spankabuttux]

@Alathaea What? You think this song is a decent man talking to a shallow woman? Do you honestly consider a conversation between a man who says he doesn't mind that she is a bit overweight and a woman who says she doesn't mind that he has a large penis is heartfelt? You are weird. It is not about that. And you don't seem to know what 'sad' means, which actually could be described as...sad.

[salerio61]

@Spankabuttux It really is. It's about him liking, how can I put it, the larger size lady (or what we would say normal size, 10 to 12) and her saying an 8" dick is perfect for her. As someone has already said "When he's at my gate, with a big fat 8, you wanna see this smile on my face".

It really is a dirty song. If you don't recognize that you need to get out more and face reality a bit. Lots of Heaton's lyrics about sex. "Don't marry her, Fuck me" Or maybe you only ever heard it sanitized

[Spankabuttux]

@salerio61 I really don't think so, honestly. I hope this won't descend into insults, but I genuinely think her viewpoint is not that shallow one; and if he meant it that way, I would assume it was a mean-spirited dig at an ex of his, but again, I don't think it is.

[killfourchan]

@Spankabuttux "Every penny dont fit the slot" sort of gives it away. Also, read the wiki entry on this song. It is about dress sizes and dick sizes.

[Spankabuttux]

@killfourchan I forgot that every contributer to Wikipedia knows everything about everything...

[killfourchan]

@Spankabuttux They dont, but when the band themselves talked about it in interviews, you don't really have a leg to stand on.

[Spankabuttux]

@killfourchan But when you say something is a fact with no reference or link, you don't really have a leg to stand on.

[BMay8181]

Part of it is about knobs.

[zeljko0o]

beautiful song :)! 

[skymera07]

who the hell makes a youtube account with myra hindleys name?

[PBL187]

@skymera07 Someone with a sick sense of humour? Or someone who likes ppl bein negative towards him/ her? Or maybe its her name. Who knows

[TheGinge1990]

36 people are a perfect 12 but try and fit into a 10!

[ScottyGunner]

this is simply the best song of all time.

[only4tsc]

@ScottyGunner it's good, but I wouldn't go that far!

[shmugglebuggles]

@only4tsc I would! ;P

[TheSuperGirl1993]

Chenice knows where its at <3 :')

[kansasjamiemcmurray]

Good song I loved the video as well 

[rossmiller90]

Shame the world dont make 'perfect' music nowadays

[emzo82]

hello ben m

[mitchacus]

God I love a woman who knows what she wants ;)

[nazmdeh]

Every penny dont fit the slot

[nazmdeh]

Great lyrics, great muisc, amazing band

[mitchacus]

DEM REEBOKS!

[funkypunkyfish]

The song is about a relationship between a man and woman using clothing sizes and penis length to describe eachother. The song title refers to a person who scores 10 out of 10 for attractiveness and desirability, but also referring to a size 10 (in UK women's clothing measurement) which the male singer suggests is the perfect size for his woman, while the female singer suggest 8 inches is the perfect penis size. Look up the lyrics, and you will see all the sexual suggestive lyrics ;)

[legindyoll]

This gets a perfect eleven in my book.

[JustALittleBitDipsy]

I adore this song, not like it started up in CO-OP last week and I started singing it...You should have seen the look on my boyfriends face. LOL.

[MyraHindley84]

I just love the Beautiful South!!!

[portersbabe]

@MyraHindley84 You haunting youtube now? lol

[MyraHindley84]

@portersbabe ????????????????????

[fabtrain]

what a great fucking song, it still brings a smile to my face....

[MichaelSamVevo]

@Rockleearecool Weil ich den Song vor langer langeer Zeit nicht gehört habe und als ich mal in meinen Ferien in Slovenien ging hörte ich dies im Fernsehn, ohne Slovenien hätte ich diesen song wahrscheinlich nie mehr gehört. :-)

[junior128708]

jackie abbot is gorgues

[beanyjazz]

That little ginger kid in the video is my dad

[skouf007]

@beanyjazz do you have the papers to prove it?

[Ozzie9877]

@beanyjazz U serious?

[Donkulatedfish]

@beanyjazz is it actually or are you taking the piss

[Veprik]

shes ugly

[hancar]

@Veprik

If she's ugly, I wonder what you look like? She's a normal, healthy, pretty woman in her best age and I think she's gorgeous!!!

[graemel48]

sung this in the drunken duck majorca many times what a song what a singer him not me

[TheKiruka]

perfect

[thekenster1000]

tunage ppl this stuffs fukd up ya gimpz

[pinkginger1989]

dont you think hes got dead big feet the first lad who sings on this video lol

[Jdmobmusic]

I wish there was still music like this. Perfect 10

[ryanmainy]

Forever A Hit :)

[ABMoller]

probably the band in the world who makes the most intelligent pop-rock lyrics !

[Spankabuttux]

I have never fancied a famous person more than I have fancied someone I know. I don't know if that is weird or not, but it is true. And any man that fancies a catwalk model or Jordan MUST be living a lie. A stick with plastic balls attached? Get out of the closet!

[frichar]

I just found this song, after 10 years looking for it.....I don't know why the tittle just appeared on my mind... I remember watching it before go to school in vh1 in the show pop-up video when I was 9/10 years old...fucking mind, never stop surprising you!!

[74souledout]

Haven't listened to for a while, still good xx

[deepfriedgames2009]

i might of first heard it in 2000, but i found it today!

[deepfriedgames2009]

speaking of 10, I have been looking for this song for 10 years! when i first heard it in 2002.

[perspectivehorizon]

change from the 80s....still good

[diegomarah1]

I Heard The 367,360 Viewer Has A Big Penis xD

[samhopla]

Perfect 10, i think is just saying that it doesn't matter what size, shape or what u look like to love/be attracted to someone. Especially when you're getting on a bit, & life & shit has got u down, the eyes will never change, you can always find that person in their eyes & it's still them. <3

[Watterpolo]

@samhopla thats true but it is realy the look or is it the charakter how let us dicide us for a person or not

[Superteduk]

Reminds me of my school years on the radio classic

[nerebeht]

Why does she say 'her' instead of 'his' in the chorus?

[AlbionDavid]

CLEVER,ENGAGING, EXTREMELY WELL DONE. WITH DEPTH. TALENTED BUNCH....THANKS TO ALY UK FOR THE LINK

[worddeep3]

@ABRITISHPERSON its basically saying, that people love different people and different things, they dont have to love to others expectations

[Watterpolo]

@ABRITISHPERSON he give her note for her botty thats why he sings shes a perfect ten but looks like a twelf.

[Watterpolo]

@ABRITISHPERSON he give s her a note vor her body thats why he sings shes a perfect ten but looks like a twelfe

[retror0b0t]

@ABRITISHPERSON pretty sure she's singing about cock
