  • amazing they could make a smash hit about toast, these days it's gotta be shooting hommes, slapping girls around, smoking ganja and crack, etc,etc. whats the world come to?

  • I love the line, 'and so I *started* getting older.'

    LOL. That sounds silly.

  • I Remeber this from an old Gales Honey ad! never knew it was from Paul Youngs old bantd, never knew he was in a band. Used to think the song from the ad was maybe The Blockheads

  • Roger Kelly Is a modern day guitar Genius!

  • Why is Paul Young talking in a broad Cockney accent?

  • @sirtinycreep he's from Luton, my home town, and the Luton/London accent are very similar, jeez, I live in Cornwall now and the ammount of times i've got a "why do you put on that cockney accent"

  • @egonspeng Yeah I know he's a London boy but he sounds like he is faking his accent. I have heard him speak, and his accent wasn't as strong as that. :)

  • @sirtinycreep Nooooo, he's a Luton boy.

  • Is this song copyright please? Thanks

  • Mr Paul Young

  • Evenin' all...I love the Radio 2 reference to it!!

  • @hippywill1 Embarrassed. Pay more attention in English Language!

  • This song is totally nuts! I remember it well from the time, but came across on Youtube after an absence of decades and was almost knocked off my feet when I found out that Paul Young sang it - he wasn't even famous at the time.

  • Hooray for toast!

  • I remember this as a kid! Me and my next door neighboor would shoud TOAST at one another! A wonderfully daft song!

  • A very young PAUL YOUNG !

  • Does anyone know the recipe for Toast?lol!

  • If this is Top of the Pops I went there when they recorded this tune!! My mate and I was even in the lift with Paul Young but we were only about 15 at the time (47 now) and really didnt have a clue who he was!! Loved him !! He done some good stuff!! XX

  • Mad as TOAST!!Heh,heh,remember this when I was a nipper.

  • Love the toast scraping solo!!!

  • I love this video! Goodness knows how many times I have listened to it! What a classic :)

  • This was, as said by loads of you, pretty awful, but the 2 albums released by Streetband - 'London' and 'Dilemma' were truly great pieces of pop with some great songs. 'One Good Reason', 'Mirror Star' and 'Slaughterhouse 5' being the best for me - with a cameo vocal appearance by Ian Dury on the track 'Mystery' from the 'London' album

  • well I white bred & I like brown bread but which is better White Or brown There is only one way to find Fiiiiiiiighhhht!

  • Shut it and spread that LURPAK,,its a r8 song,,its a laf you boring cunts

  • Given that this is from 1978, and Rappers Delight didn't come out until 1979, is this the true birth of rap?
