Spinal Tap-Listen to the Flower people

[jamirosmajicrocks]

This is brilliant.

[simonsaintgilles]

There's something of the Sky Saxon about him.

[Murphdogg4]

[inandhika]

This song creeps me

[vanosawufo]

cool song of fictional rockteam

[tailendcharlie]

[SeanMurrayI]

[edisonmonstera]

Far out, man.

[PSXGAMER22]

2:05 FUNNIEST THING EVER

[PopTodd]

They weren't sure WHOSE vomit it was.

You can't really dust for vomit, can you?

[WhiteCamry]

@PopTodd ,

Not in those days, no. But today it's quite possible.

[jrckr1]

This song actually isnt bad

[1tch1n]

@kewkabe someone else's vomit

[starofcctv94]

how did this drummer die?

[kewkabe]

@starofcctv94 choked on vomit

[lamecasuelas2]

@starofcctv94 there was an explosion,an there was nothing left,oh yes,tehre was,only a little globy on his drumseat

[lightscameraaction90]

It's not too late! NOOOOOOOO!

[laequis]

god...the face of nigel....XD

[robertodowneso]

Id love to hear 'mrs murphy's chowder'

[vacoitrue]

4 people didn't listened to "Mach"

[dkomjath]

It's funny how a change of scenery can be so revealing. I've seen this clip a thousand times (I have the rare Criterion DVD of the movie), usually just the short clip actually used in the movie. Seeing it here on YouTube I just realized something: Their drummer here "Peter James Bond" - he's got the look and vibe of GINER BAKER of CREAM. Huge, red-headed guy, love the beard. IPerfect. What I love most about this clip: Derek's Ric bass, and when he mouths "we love you"!

[FadizzleWizzler]

4 people choked on each others vomit and died.

[Via1tunes]

@Hazylynx :)

[Bobbynibbles]

This is so fucking funny here.

[Pbirv]

I'm sure Austin Powers has every one of Spinal Tap's albums.

[hailmary7283]

mrs. murphy's chowder... now that was music.

[LozferWordz]

The 'sshhhh' is epic

[furmaster212]

LOL for the love of god PLEASE dont watch this vid if youre high, i just did yesterday and im still tripping over this vid! DX

[SeanMurrayI]

2:46

[Via1tunes]

I still think they should of been the originals

[elechliter]

Awesome. Never seen the full version of the video. I'm so proud to have the same maple rickenbacker bass as Derek.

[Nesgamer1991]

HOLY SHIT ITS THE EARLY YARDBIRDS! Lol

[lakeviewviking]

@Nesgamer1991 I think there's a fair amount of the influence of The Move, down to the harmony vocals and the classical-music nick in the bridge...

[inphrased]

1:00 :D

[NicotinMan]

The blonde dancer is pretty hot but when Spinal Tap is on the stage I just can't look at the girls.

[pearlz125]

spinal tap's so awesome that nobody needs to play the sitar solo. it just happens

[ButtsexV2]

the double neck has a danelectro buzz bridge

[wattdanielj]

LOL We love you.

[Supermunch2000]

Great group or the Greatest group ever?

A shame so many people have never heard of them.

[phoxetis]

brilliant ;)

[grungemunkiii]

Shit sandwich XD

[Gruxxan]

Homer Simpson's on bass!!

[MOVIEMANGLE]

@Gruxxan Dude. Dan Canstanella is Homer Simpson.

[Gruxxan]

@MOVIEMANGLE Oh okay then.. Mr Burns on bass!!

[jamirosmajicrocks]

if ive never heard of this movie i would think this would be real!

[jamirosmajicrocks]

its so cleverly done!!!

i mean this was done in the 80s like 15 years after this period!

[MisterFruitbowl]

Shhhh.....

[rockycupid]

i love these guys, they r nuts!!!!!

[stevierayDOM18]

Apperently George Harrison took a solo on his citar in this. :b

[TheGlenn9]

the songs quite catchy actually

[MDProdTV]

I'm sorry but this is the only British psych band I can take seriously!!

[nergvol]

What happened to Stumpy Joe?

[blumbino]

@nergvol The official report was he choked on vomit...but they can't prove whose vomit it was...

[nergvol]

@blumbino With new DNA evidence, the mystery could be solved! Inspector Clouseau

[CinemaObsessed]

@blumbino You can't dust for vomit...

[repentandrebel]

Press 3 over and over again.

Thank me later.

[OrielFilms]

This song is awesome to listen to while high

[duckman531]

I don't remember this intro in the movie. Was this edited out in the original, or created later???

[banklikefrankwhite1]

@duckman531 the original movie is over 4 and half hours long. it was edited down to the main film, then again to the theater version

it is my understanding that the original, with all the footage, is very hard to find anywhere

[banklikefrankwhite1]

@duckman531 also, i'm not saying that it wasn't edited in, i'm just saying, it's a strong possibility it is from the original movie

[CapeDeepShark]

Ahh the psychedelia is better than an acid trip....oh, wait....

[coronet67]

Oh man lol. My seven year old just said this is Wilco. 

[gdx1990]

1:46 I love you too <3 <3 <3

[SirBanuTheFourth]

2 people didn't listen to the flower people.

[MissAndDie96]

Rofl, David St. Hubbins looks like Justin Hayward from The Moody Blues in this.

[KibotVejn]

.....we l o v e you.....shhhh xDDD

[McFudge93]

That's about as heavy as it got in the 60's

[MusicAndTheMind]

@McFudge93

You seem to be forgetting about Judas Priest, The Who, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin. Etc. All bands that came from the 60s. Unless of course you were commenting with a sense of irony, if so, then shame on your stereotyping!

[SuperIlluminaughty]

Mrs. Murphy's chowder is still pretty good though.

[McFudge93]

we love you

[jdub0813]

hahaha omg these guys are amazing

[mindytinkerberg]

I love this! It's funny but it's actually good! Can u name the different songs they're giving a nod to?

[hughesms]

@mindytinkerberg I'd take a guess at Scott McKenzie - San Francisco, anything The Byrds, The Moody Blues and The Beatles later stuff. Anything else?

[mindytinkerberg]

@hughesms Yes Byrds definitely.  1:36-2:00 is so familiar but I can't recall who it is!!

[GutterBrothersVid]

Shhhhhhh

[FrankieC63]

lol @ the sitar at 1:43. Bing b-b-bing bing bing

[dig6dog]

one drummer exploded on stage

[zazz63]

[redbeakman]

[jujutay]

[Nattypoopoos]

@jujutay I think you'll find it's Eine Kleine Nacht Musik by Mozart :)

[jujutay]

@Nattypoopoos oh whoops - ha ha - you're right. I was sure it was early Beethoven.

[pinkopaque22]

[uneedtherapy42]

[MisterFruitbowl]

[joctheviper1]

[joctheviper1]

[dude19288]

Thats a crazy dano!

[JakeThesnake101tv]

i knew they were a real band and all but seriously i thought they made these songs for the movie

[tedhobgood]

The great thing is that Michael McKean looks like he 100% believes in what he's singing, which is brilliant. Really sells it.

[ironredneck123]

tom petty and spinal tap?

[smilingpug]

Please welcome .......... spinal carp.

[noahmijo]

One person has died in a bizarre gardening accident.

[FlaviusConstantius]

[JgHaverty]

@noahmijo hahaha :)

[nochix96isnuts]

@noahmijo Did you mean 4!

[Kevin8942]

If there drummer wouldn't have died in a bizarre gardening accident they probably could've been the next Moody Blues....

[UncleFeedle]

If we all listened to the flower people, the world would be so much happier.

[Terri2799]

OMG! This scene just popped into my head and i just started laughing and had to watch it. Love this song.

[doyoulikesprinkles]

Spinal Tap. If a Best Band Ever award is up for grabs, they r at the top of the list.

[JOBISBAY]

what the hell is Mrs. Murphy's chowder?

[quinnmcguee]

Bass player is the voice of principal Skinner on the Simpsons.

[GuitarBlues3]

@quinnmcguee Are you sure? That's cool

[quinnmcguee]

@GuitarBlues3

Yep, Harry Shearer.

[quinnmcguee]

@GuitarBlues3

He's also the voice of Mr. Burns, Otto Man, Smithers, and Ned Flanders.

[Skateoftheunion]

@quinnmcguee And Reverend Lovejoy

[daisyroots]

Very Strawberry alarm clock

[ringafiar]

Love this song, whenever I'm down it puts a smile on my face.

These guys rock!

Stown 'enge is my fave though, either that or "l%:k my love p*#p"

\o/

P.S. emote above was supposed to be devils hands, looks more like a bloke drowning....any suggestions for a purely "Rock!!!" emote?

[Akirecek]

[ringafiar]

@Akirecek

Cheers, will give it a whirl, you rock Aki \m/

[TheRyanOmega]

[scrumsie]

"Listen, Shhhhhhhh........."rofl &lol

[bainelaker]

Ah-ahhhhh!

[Jbakerbass]

dont let the name scare you

[churlskunk]

@darling67 Interesting! I am not a musician and was not aware such an animal existed!

[churlskunk]

I'm guessing someone already brought this up, but I like the way they have the SOUND of a sitar in the song, but NO SITAR or any way to reproduce that sound.

[0xXNirvanaXx0]

@churlskunk dude it was obviously recorded before they made this music video

[churlskunk]

@0xXNirvanaXx0 Exactly my point, sir! I guess they were making fun of all the lip sync perfomances of the 60's, which was standard practice back then.  What a brilliant movie this was!

[tylerf1974]

The brunette dancer is my friend Gina!!

[her0indragon]

@tylerf1974

then your friend gina is slammin'

[panhead55]

@tylerf1974 really?  she is good looking! :)

[BitterBosh]

Nooooooo!

[mollers92]

shhhhh!

[099749]

Werid actually I thought the band was called "from England" for ages.

and tell my friends that "spinal tap flower people" was a great song.

[tempelton]

Frighteningly good at skewering the vacuousness of the 60's. Next stop, Stone'enge!

[099749]

@tempelton

No I perfer their 60s stuff really, all goes black dont it

[Bubbbla97]

Listen SHHHHH!

[macocwbyz72]

Ahhhhhh the beginnings of metal Listen............shhhhhhhhhh.­

[doorsgirl100]

I guess pretty doesn't have to be smart, right!! Har Har.

[099749]

@doorsgirl100

What are you talking about it is well known that all the band went to university, that I believe is where they first started.

[doorsgirl100]

Nigel wasn't really bright, ever, was he.

[BrightLightGirl]

@doorsgirl100 He was sexy, though!

[099749]

@doorsgirl100

I blame that shak n wac mix up- and his whore of a wife

[doorsgirl100]

@099749

Yes, I believe they met at the Hoover University of Vacuum Cleaning Repair in Bristol, England. Which goes a long way to explaining the shak n vac nose powder mix up. Whats up with the comment about his wife, she's an inspiration and an example to generations of gold diggers - Kardashians!!!

[099749]

@doorsgirl100

She blew you too

[099749]

@doorsgirl100 Cont...

I dont want to know woman, ok! I don't want to know!!!

@doorsgirl100

You're right it was Bristol.

Mad actually, I listen to the flower people, and have been since this song ins
