Mike Reid Prisencolinensinaincuisol (Freezin' Cold In 89 Twoso)

[alternatereality85]

Roughly translated the title means 'What are you, some kind of pilchard?!' and not this 'universal love' that that Adriano Celentano bloke claims it is ;-)

[GeneralMartok00]

Celentano's original was more... how to say... original!

[GrimJesterr]

oh funny, he turned Celentanos fake-english-word gibberish, into actual english-word gibberish, nice one

[shrivel1]

Nah, I prefer Adriano Celantano's version. The driving drum beat is just amazing.

hubba hubba on the coconut five

[fathasty]

genius!!!!!



[ledatape]

Fascinating! After Celantano, this almost sounds like it might make sense but then it doesn't! Mike Smith was a true original.I used to watch him on Runaround - best evah! kids quiz show... there's heaps like it now but back it the day it was ahead of its time... Viva Mike!

[Evi1M4chine]

I prefer Adriano Celentano’s original. :)

[curly1966]

just great

[NurnIrl]

I love the original too, but who could resist listening to a "re-translation"? It had to be done, and I think this is great!

[xphobe]

I don't get it. He's just covering Adriano Celetano's song. It's funnier when an Italian sings it.

[hollium]

@xphobe instead of singing gibberish, he's singing nonsense.

[col06]

haha this is classic Mike Reid was a legend

[joxville]

I very rarely comment on videos but this one warrants it........Stand up, get down, FUNK IT! Loved it :-)

[kieran196]

BRILLIANT.

[EvelBoys]

This is fantastic!

[clairelouisereid]

Thats my Grandad!!!!!!!!!

[mdkhunter]

You must be so proud of him. Great actor, great comedian but as for his singing ...... seriously though, I am glad he did this version of one of my all time favorites. No one else could have pulled this off so well. I even saw him doing a stand up comedy act once - bought grown men to tears of laughter.

[joxville]

He was one of those rare comedy genius's, sadly missed.

[olsharezee45]

Lucky girl 

[JCHandJobLover]

Aceness

[VickyDuncalf]

I am loving it!! Mad, surreal and funky as a monkey spanking a bass. Shame it fades at the end though.

[solrac7000]

loved the original, this is just crazy...you never played this in 89 on a friday at NUDE.....hey Graeme...LOL

[GraemeParkDJ]

Unreal.

[numpty1972]

This has to the be the best funk novelty record sung by a stand up comedian named Mike who starred in Eastenders and who is now dead of them all. ;-)
