Kirsty MacColl - There's a guy works down the chip shop, swears he's Elvis 1981

[gooangel2]

This woman was ahead of her time! God I love those tongue in cheek lyrics!

[gooangel2]

I never heard of this woman until two nights ago. I wish she had lived because she was an awesome songwriter. For those of you who are her detractors and critics--you can kiss my all American Texan ass! She rocked! RIP Kirsty! Eff the purists! Why she never broke big over here is beyond me! I loved Duran Duran and such, but good god! What the hell were the promoters thinking by ignoring her in this country? She was effing great!

What a Doll. Love you Kirsty.

[elliasprophet]

i hope she is not miming the lyrics .. but her ass wiggle makes up for it :) xD

[UnderTheAffluence]

Kirsty MacColl's lyrics are a work of art in themselves. Her singing and personality put the icing and the cherry on the cake!

@Honour42GB

omg, if you think this looks great, then i never want to see your wife, because kirsty looks terrible in this video with that ugly pants, and the ragdoll hair. Someone should haved told her that the ugly 70's fashion were over back then.

[Honour42GB]

[Honour42GB]

@3DPeter  Ha ha ... Peter, would have thought you were sharper than that........tell someone you think they are American, and if they are they start waving 'Ole Glory' and shooting off about home of the brave and land of the free.......if not, well you see!!. Holland eh .... better keep your dick in th dyke old boy, the sea's are rising and, how come you are there because the Dutch are nice people?

[3DPeter]

@Honour42GB

Music needs stuff like this. Slight tongue in cheek whilst still expertly written and performed.
