  • Watching them now they appear like a comedy group, almost like a parody singing weak as water versions of classic rock and roll songs.

    I am not on hear slagging them off, some of there songs were pretty good covers but most were very weak.

    This is probably one of the best they did

  • If you don't like it why listen to it? For me personally brings back so many happy memories of my mum X

  • this is still a good song to this day

  • I wish this could be the new "rick roll", then i would actully enjoy being screwed over! :D

  • rock nroll era the best even though i born in 76

  • have to say, i went to see the Wads last night and they were bloody brilliant, so for anyone out there thats worried about Daves voice not being what it was, i can tell you there is absolutely NO problem, he was fantastic, AND a few teds were there up and dancing. Met him afterwards and he was charming (and gorgeous).

  • Showaddywaddy are fantastic and 70's music is way better than all this fucking bollocks these days. Full stop.

  • @showaddywaddyfan

    Your on drugs if you think that,you have a closed mind,why not do yourself a favor and look for real Rock`n`Roll and rockabilly,you would never want to listen to a bunch of wankers like this again,long haired bunch of poofs with their dayglo jackets,they cant even write their own material got to steal someone elses,look up some of the good bands of the 70`s,and leave these tossers along,if you think they are good,your a muppet..

  • @TeddyboyNo1 Showaddywaddy are not tossers.

  • @showaddywaddyfan

    Yes they are,yet they dont know it,do you even know what real Rock`n`Roll is?,if you did you would not listen to crap like this,its bubble gum pop,if that,i stumbled upon this rubbish by accident,i was looking for the origional by Curtis Lee,not crap like this,we had enough of these in the 70`s...............Definatley not True Rock`n`Roll...................­......

  • @TeddyboyNo1 I do know what proper Rock 'n' Roll is, I am not stupid.

  • @showaddywaddyfan

    You say you know what propper Rock`n`Roll is,you also say your not stupid,yet you listen to one of the worst pop groups there ever was,this is not Rock`n`Roll never has been and never will be,do your self a favor and start listening to Proper Rock`n`Roll,at the moment you sound stupid,and there are many more people out there that think the same.........

  • @TeddyboyNo1 Proper rock 'n' roll is from the 50's & 60's. I don't just listen to Showaddywaddy. I'm not talking to you anymore, just not worth talking to a piss taker.

  • @showaddywaddyfan

    Your the piss taker,your the one that keeps posting to me,so you take your toys and your dummy and go home little boy,and dont forget to pray to the big shurrddy wuddy in the sky,also True Rock`n`Roll started in the 50`s and finished in the 50`s,as did true Rockabilly,now stop throwing your toys out of the pram and run along to mummy,im deeply hurt that you wont be talking to me any more.............Yeah Right.................NOT

  • @TeddyboyNo1 YOUR THE FUCKING PISS TAKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @showaddywaddyfan

    Your not very good at this are you,is that all you can do is use your caps and swear all the time,you really must stop drinking out of the toilet,thats why it has a lid,if it was shut maybe you would not be able to drink out of it,i do hope it has been flushed before you drink,would hate to think that not only are you drinking but your eating as well,dont forget to clean your teeth before you go to bed,now run along little girl.......................

  • @TeddyboyNo1 I just don't know why you bother to comment on a band that you think is really shit. I mean, surely you wouldn't even think about commenting. Yeah, thought so, attention seeking. No-one wants to talk to piss takers, seriously.

  • @showaddywaddyfan

    O look another wuddy wuddy fan,your not going to throw your toys out of your pram are you,i do think this pop group is proper shit,normally i would not waste my time,but it seems like the uneducated here that think this pop band is proper Rock`n`Roll needs to be re-educated,attention seeker?,no,teaching idiots yes,as for piss taking your the one that thinks this excuse for a group is proper rock`n`Roll,is that your dummy on the ground?,its pink so it must be.

  • @TeddyboyNo1 your proper pissing me off Teddyboy!, just accept the fact that your comments are not wanted here, use the dislike button instead, your comments on here like a penny 2-faced and worthless!

    also you claim to dislike a band! well why put your username as the outfits this band wear! ANSWER ME THAT YOU FUCKING DOPE!

  • @MegaJParry

    Dear O Dear,talk about spitting the dummy,if my comments are not wanted here then this video should not be posted here,last time i checked YouTube was a free site,which means i can post anywhere i like,dont worry,i do use the dislike button,everytime i have to waste my time responding to one of you idiotic replies,if my comments are worth two a penny then the longer i post the more money i will get,and its so easy to get you and your idiot comments,It seems your the fucking Dope

  • @MegaJParry

    Your that thick you cant see the answer before your eyes,i have continued to answer your question,but it seems my plain English is too hard for you to understand,and im afraid i dont speak retard as fluent as you do,your a typical ruddy ruddy fan,you can tell just by reading your dumb posts,a dunb group followed by dumb fans,and you seem to be the biggest bumb retard......

  • @TeddyboyNo1 it seems I may speak retard as well as you do because it turns out, you cant spell! check the dictionary!...who's the retard now!?!

  • @MegaJParry

    See what i mean,i dont speak retard,thats why you didn`t understand it,but the more i post to you the more i will learn so its not all bad,so come on then miss retard,give us some lingo then,by the way,in answer to your question,who the retard now?..............You are,hahahahahahahahaha

  • @TeddyboyNo1 you still haven't answered my question and for the record i'm a male so not a miss unlike you HA!

  • @MegaJParry

    Ok i will make an exception here and humour you,i dont do this for just anyone,and i dont what you throwing your toys out the pram again.

    So,what was your question then????

  • @TeddyboyNo1 do you not think, that by listening to this band covering alot of the originals that there are those who may want to give the likes of Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, Eddie Cochran and all a go? Its perhaps worth considering don't you think? So i think everyones happy! Come on, there's room for all! be happy!!

  • @showaddywaddylady

    Back in the 70`s we copped crap over this group,but we distanced ourselfs from them,there are a lot of kids who listen to the old stuff,and they love it,they didn`t listen to this pop group to do so,they may cover origionals but its not rock`n`roll,they are a pop group,its what is known among the rockin scene as bubble gum pop.

    I appreaciate your calm none aggressive post,

    Im a true 50`s

    R` N` R fan,im still a Teddyboy,who is also into Rockabilly and Doo-Wop,great music

  • @TeddyboyNo1 many thanks for your comments, i do see what you're getting at, and its great that there are alot of kids out there enjoying "real" rock and roll. what a wonderful world we live in that there is different kinds of music out there for every taste, it would be pretty naff otherwise. Keep on rocking my friend and remember..... long live rock and roll.. and maybe keep just a little bit of Showaddywaddy in there for the rest of us,

  • @showaddywaddylady

    When i first started out back in the 70`s it was the Teddyboy lifestyle for me,as a mature Ted today i have always stayed faithful to Rock`n`Roll,Rockabilly and Doo-Wop,but i still get wround up over this and another groups that dress up as Teds,we wear our Drapes with pride as we did when we first become Teds,today its a way of life for us,our music and us being Teddyboys and TeddyGirls,there are lots of us still out there,and not only in England, Peace.....

  • @TeddyboyNo1 well, its good to know that people like you are keeping the good name of rock and roll alive and well. there are many bands i like, although i hate, with a passion punk "rock" and some of todays " music" but i defend the right of anyone to like what they want, and i guess thats my point, its whatever floats your boat. With some of the 70s bands it was all about glitz and having a party. amen to that! peace love and rock and roll ( and anything in between)ha!...enjoying our chats!!

  • @showaddywaddylady

    There are a lot of people who are still into the true Rockin scene,the earliest picture i have of me as a Ted was in 76,i was 16 at the time,but i was a Ted at school,and was threatened with the cane more than once going to school with a big quiff,punk i still dont like,we had many battles with them back in the 70`s,i was seeing most of the 70`s groups,ie Cavan,Flying saucers,Riot Rockers,Freddy Fingers Lee,and many more,the gigs were great fun back then,its Rock`n`Roll.....

  • @TeddyboyNo1 you know what you like ,and more power to you that you stood by your principles at school..... let NOBODY tell you who to like or how to dress!. I bet you were a riot back then (probably still are eh?) Like i said, the roots of rock and roll will never die, just keep rocking and i'll do likewise..... even if its to use a lot of rock and roll and just keeping a little of Showaddywaddy in there! peace my friend!!

  • @showaddywaddylady Thats exactly how I got listening to original rock n roll. We weren;t revilalists, we were only 14. This opened the door. I saw them live and they absolutley rocked the place.

  • @georgaalty thank you for your post, its like i keep saying till im blue in the face, alot of younger fans can "get" what rock and roll is all about by listening to the Wads and bands like them, as indeed they themselves would have listened to band and singers of the 50s and 60s. Never ever let anyone stop you enjoying your music and i'm SO glad you enjoy Showaddywaddy. Rock and roll my friend and never forget....Up the Mighty and very wonderful Wads!!

  • @showaddywaddylady Exactly.. I have a collection of rock n roll music now, but in 1974 I had none.. Interesting comments about not writing thier own stuff... Clearly never heard the first 3 albums. Mind you they'll be telling us Elvis,Buddy & Eddie wrote all thier own stuff and never covered a song next.. The sleeve of the Trocadero album tells it's own story about a group of young lads watching rock n roll acts then growing up to do it themselves. Rock on Wads!

  • @georgaalty my childhood,two older brothers me a girl dressed in hand me downs..Roy of the rovers t shirt one week,next week starsky and hutch....but i always wanted to watch the wheel tappers and shunters social club!!! showaddy were my bestest

  • @TeddyboyNo1 HEY LEAVE HER ALONE...THIS IS BETWEEN YOU AND ME!

  • aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggg­gggggggggggggggggggggggggggghh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......­...my ears are bleeding....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @drichards1961 1950's Rock'N'Roll is for old farts.

  • @TWENTIETHCENTURYBABY Music's music, dude. It's for anyone. I'm 18 and I love older music because it's actually good as opposed to most moderrn music that is barely music at all, it's just a beat with some repetitive lyrics and shit.

  • @Thomasbki I agree with you totally, I was just having a dig @drichards1961 for the stupid comment.

  • All the wankers that like Showaddywaddy should be over the moon about the baseballs

  • I was not going to waste my time with this!! but fuck it i have to...this is nothing what so ever to do with Rock n Roll / Rockabilly..they are just a 70s piss take...

  • @paddy6062 then don't watchy it if u don't like it

  • @sukes58 that was 5 months ago!! this left my mind untill you brought the bloody thing back!!

    will have to play real rocking music now to get this out of my head!!

  • @paddy6062 u dont have to if u do u can keep your opinions to yourself in future

  • @sukes58 why coz i think they are shit!! see if you kept your comments to yourself i would not come back and say it again :)

  • Anyone who thinks this is real Rock`n`Roll must be smiffing glue,either that or are taking too many asprin,you dont have a clue,these shit heads cant sing cant dance,and they dont even look good,they wear dayglo drapes,what a bunch of plastic posers,i would use wose language but it would be wasted on these tossers,to be half good they would need a full frontal lobotamy,this group are nothing but shit...................

  • Teds rule Showaddywaddy fool.

  • @MrDeejay45

    No decent Ted would want to see this lot,unless it was under a car...

  • @MrDeejay45 lol for people who are wondering who MrDeejay45 really is have a look here facebook com /profile.php?id=549934734&ref=­ts

  • @HeeHaw50 So what if the sad Showaddyduddy plastic Ted fans know what Ilook like, I don't give a fuck, and at least I don't hide behind a fake profile like a fucking coward, you're just a hypocrite. Nuff said innit.

  • @MrDeejay45

  • @HeeHaw50 So what if all the sad Showaddyduddy plastic Ted fans know what Ilook like, at least I don't hide behind a fake profile like a coward, you fucking hypocrite.

  • @HeeHaw50

  • @MrDeejay45 this heehaw is the official number 1 fan for this plastic pop group,i bet he even has a yellow drape and long hair,just like his hero`s,.hahahahahahahahahaha..­..........

  • @TeddyboyNo1... Yeah it must have a yellow drape to match the yellow streak that runs down it's back. Bwahahahahahahahaha!

  • @HeeHaw50 @HeeHaw50

    Im surprised you even know what a Rockabilly club is,the only vlub you know is the one you stuff down your gob,and thats going in sideways and thats not just one,thats a whole packet,i bet your the no1 faqn for this bubblegum pop group,you sound stupid enough,i get you even have their autographs under your pilliow,you probably had to look up the word rockabilly as you cant spell it,heehaw sounds like a name of the muppet show,hahahahahahahaha

  • What an absolute pile of shit this is, people who like this, need to leave the country

  • @drichards1961

    Thank you,i thought i was the only one who thought this,shit is the right word,maybe if we chucked this crappy group out the country,the plastics will follow,might work.......

  • Where's the sick bucket when you need it?

  • @tigermangb1 Just get Hee Haw to open their mouth and you can throw up in there, it's big enough... lol

  • @MrDeejay45

    And take an dunk as well,he talks shit so you might as well fill him up with it

  • Its is so sad that people thinks THIS bad is rock´n´roll. Jivebunnies....

  • Check out the original and better version by Curtis Lee and hear the real thing instead of praising Showaddyduddy... lol

  • What a load of rubbish

  • the fantastic showwaddywaddy

  • @SuperSandman14 , Proper shite, end of story.

  • @MrDeejay45 Play nicely now Mike Williams 

  • @SuperSandman14

    If you think this is proper music,then it really is the end of story..................Twat.

  • wee aimee likes this oldie

  • Fantasic band... no act before ... no act since.......never will be.... There's only one Showaddywaddy.. .....Rock n roll revivers.

  • @nialllewis, There was Rock'n'Roll bands before Showaddywaddy who are not a Rock'n'Roll band and they certainly did'nt revive anything. Methinks you need to get out more... lol

  • I get out quite alot buddy .. i'v play music for a living for the past 25 years ... not d.j. .. (anyone can press play and stop) .. my point is they were a one of a kind group.. they did cover songs fair enough... but they DID revive rock 'n' roll music to a degree.

  • @nialllewis, Yes you're right any fuckwit can press play and stop but I use vinyl and if you knew anything then you would know you have to cue it up manually so it comes out right bang on time. And for your information Rock'n'Roll never died in England therefore was not ever revived here. It was Rockabilly that was revived yet again in England two whole years before another shitty band called the Stray Cats came along and cashed in on our already thriving scene. Nuff said!

  • WTF,i was looking for Curtis lee,and this shit come up,this is crap,its pop music not real rock`n`roll,what can you expect from shit group,bunch of wankers

  • @TeddyboyNo1 you dont like it?....PRESS THE FUCKING DISLIKE BUTTON INSTEAD OF SAYING YOUR SHITTY OPINION AROUND A COMMUNITY OF SHOWADDYWADDY LOVERS!!!!!

  • @MegaJParry

    HEY FUCKFACE,I PUSHED THE DISLIKE BUTTON,IM STILL ENTITLED TO AN OPINION,AND I DISAGREE,THIS IS NOTHING BUT A BUGGLGUM BAND,ITS NOT ROCK`N`ROLL,THIS IS INSULTING TO TRUE ROCK`N`ROLL FANS,IF YOU DONT LIKE MY SHITTY OPINION,IGNORE IT FUCKWIT,US TRUE ROCKIN FANS THINK YOUR A WANKER,NOW FUCK OFF

  • @TeddyboyNo1

    oooh someones getting angry...what you gonna do???...oh i'm so scared....not

  • @MegaJParry

    I know your not scared because you like this shitty band and admit it,a crime on its own,took your sweet time to reply to this,what was it,trying to think of something smart to say,well it didn`t work,you go back to you shitty shitty bubble gum pop,you wouldn`t know true rock`n`Roll if someone hit you with it,your a joke,but you keep on protesting about this pop music of yours,there must be at least 6 fans here that like it,wow big numbers.....ROFLMFAO

  • @TeddyboyNo1 OH DO SHUT YOUR FUCKING GOB LARD-ARSE!

  • @MegaJParry

    Can tell your a shurruddy ruddy fan,all that sewafe coming out your gob,do you kiss your mummy with that toilet mouth,go and chill and listen to your little plastic bubble gum pop band........hahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahaha

  • @MegaJParry, Showaddyduddy are a load of bollox, they never performed their own songs, they just made money with crappy covers of someone else's hard work, what's so clever about that? They're not a Rock'n'Roll band and will go down in history as clowns.

  • @MrDeejay45 THEY'RE STILL MUSICIANS!

  • I saw this group live in Nttingham in the 70s, it was a memorable night.

  • birmingham odeon 78-supported by rosetta stone-great night!

  • this is sikkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk SNM

  • this song good

  • Petty littttttle pretty litttttle angel eyeeeeees!!

    I would normally be really irritated by a band like Showaddywaddy but have been playing there Greatest hits album on loop in the car for weeks. They were so bloody good.

  • @pupytfc...

    Q) Name one hit that was actually theirs?

    A) They sang other peoples hits.

  • not bad. In fact, it was flawless!

    This is the song that made Curtis Lee famous.

  • Comment removed

  • I used to go to school with Rod Deas, the one in the pink suit! It was in Malta, he had a group then, three of them. Him and his mate used to get us into trouble in class, as they weren't interested in working!! also my husband was born in Leicester and lived there until he was 22!

  • my mam and uncle grew up with these guys if any one grew up with paul prime in leicester let me know lol.

    Any way these guys aint bad but crazy cavan and the rythom rocker was a better ted band

  • Comment removed

  • Time for a claim to fame. I grew up with most of these guys. They were great as kids and brilliant as performers. The best thing was, they never forgot their council estate roots. Tuneful, colourful, and happy. Not much of that today. AND WHAT ABOUT TISWAS????

  • my mam and uncle grew up with these guys if any one grew up with paul prime in leicester let me know lol.

    Any way these guys aint bad but crazy cavan and the rythom rocker was a better ted band
