[mruncommon1]

TOTP mosh = confused producer



[millerhxc]

i remember seeing this and started wearing goggles when pretending to play guitar on a tennis racket

[RedJoe10]

So remember this. My sis' boyfriend at the time actually said 'what the hell is this!'

[LordGoatAlmighty]

this and the Manic Street Preachers doing Faster looking like occult terrorists were the two best things I ever saw on ToTP when I was a kid. Sheer fuckin class.

[bumblescum64]

who is this "dislike"cunt?

[JonnyInfinite]

@bumblescum64 there is always one cunt..

[Joeskint]

I'd seen the Wildhearts live six times in the eighteen months before this was aired and remember staying home to watch it before going to my local rock club that night - IIRC they'd given the BBC some fake lyrics and the ceefax subtitles came up 'Baby can't you see my ship's on the water!' - absolutely brilliant, best band ever

!!!

[gruntshunts123]

@Joeskint lol nice. That is funny.

[TheGoddisco]

this was before the days of red bull

[hrothgar64]

Ginger revealed in an interview that the entire band were completely fit-shaced when they recorded this. They'd spent all day in the pub and had to run back to the studio to record their piece.

[stutaggart]

Holy shit, they didn't brodcast this did they? Nevermind, I got into them without seeing it.... 17 year old me would kill 33 year old me to see this video... and vice versa....

[gardenclaw82]

I loved it when bads that really didnt really fit on ToTP pops got on. Amazing stuff.

[HOLDFASTBAND]

god i wish i wasn't 8 at the time this came out...

[dreadbet]

[metalbearuk]

One of those classic TOTP performances that we don't get any more.

I always thought that Ginger looked like Ian Hunters love child in this clip!

[MikeH46]

Simon Mayo introducing the Wildhearts. It's a strange world.

[kinnitron]

Ha pure class......

[dreadbet]

COSTUME OF A ROCKER!

[pancakesaint]

"Baby cant you see I'm shitting brown water".

Well done Ginge for getting that on.

[sunnyswipe]

[rockinroy555]

Scorching performance. But having to wade through all that TOTP dross for this one gem... yeah maybe it was worth it!

[ChrissyboyH44]

Wow what a rush!!! I was only 13 at the time this came out and I remember watching this actual performance too! Would have loved to have been there jumpin around like a nutter lol.. gr8 stuff!!!

[blazinggunny]
