[TreacleMary]

Smash VEVO! Only listen to TV's songs direct from his channel.

[josieelewis]

[ElspethThePixie]

Wow, SEXAY! That pretty blond(e) boy(?) just stole my heart...

*sigh*

[katymagnets]

Single of the Year for 2011

[eclectica1]

@katymagnets You're not the only person who thinks that way :-)

[TheHugobussell]

I know the Guitarist!!!! He's called Max.

[JensaysLalala]

[shangrigreige]

yummy

[captainfalconism]

Love this song :D

[gears5336]

thats a man baby 

[chriskarrermusik]

haha, i knew it was mimed right away. but when she first started i was all like, whoa huh wtf? then i was like, sweeet.

[PygmyPhallus]

If Tom Vek looked like that girl I would of went gay for him.

[sollge]

@PygmyPhallus christ hes sexy enough as a bloke!

[HellsingHellsingBR]

that girl, tom vek or not, i would hit that

[draino13]

Perfectly imperfect. Thank you, Tom.

[igotamanginaaaaa]

awesome at Reading

[sonofliberty1]

15 people are a chore!!!

[TheTillMans8299]

he needs to do more shows in america. i love this guy lol

[ronstero]

@TheTillMans8299 America doesn't deserve Tom Vek.

[TheTillMans8299]

@ronstero well u kinda have a point, but for the americans that know wat real music is deserve an artist like Tom Vek

[kingny17]

@ronstero The same america that produced pavement, strange rivals, thinking fellers, dirty projectahs, polvo, helium, built to spill, white stripes, black keez, the parlor mob, etc etc etc? I can't believe someone turned me into a patriot. Chalk one up to reactionary spirits.

[ronstero]

@kingny17 from all of those bands i only knew white stripes.

Don't know any of their songs though.

I'm sorry but America can't have Tom Vek.

But hey - atleast you got Justin Bieber right?

[kingny17]

@ronstero arrrggh, stop trolling meeee.If you don't know most of those bands you can't claim to have that great taste. besides justin bieber is one of the top ten greats of our time.

[ronstero]

@kingny17 what the fuck?

No he's not are you autistic?

I'd imagine that if you like bands like that you must like the chili peppers? i'm a great fan of them if it matters.

[TubeYouwilda]

wow, thats just great

[sudokuwkroku]

haha nice :D he looks here like Debbie Harry

[ronstero]

@sudokuwkroku the blonde girl isn't Tom.

[bradleychgreen]

Does anyone know her name?

[DontGetDeeStarted]

That voice still wouldnt put me offff

[NiamhElspeth]

tom vek looks hot with that hair :]

[helmitdale]

hahaha i was one of those morons. Thank fuck for that i thought i found a dude attractive!

[mesasarly]

This song deserves millions

[bonjourisabella]

actually love the way this is filmed, gr9 song

[StrangerToEarth]

There is something dead sexual about this song. I heard it's an illegal aphrodisiac in several countries.

[NiamhElspeth]

Christ she so trying to be Debbie harry!!

[ThatsWhatYouGet10]

AHAHHAHA, who else was surprised when that girl opened her mouth and a guy's voice came out?!

[laszlo765]

expected someting more innovative. still good, but the bouncy synths sound very "trendy", the guitar line is cute tho, and the lyrics/voice is great, love the sad tone in such a dancing sound

[frozel]

Who's the girl?



[XmummraX]

soooo fucking good! well worth the wait (nahhht!) i wish it was out earlier

[xxharajukuloverxx]

She's so Debbie Harry.

[ilovekurtcobain11]

love this ahhhhh ;)

[megalomaniac2012]

no she's not abigail mason but her name is Abigail Rose, she works for D1 agency .

[pandachrome90]

@megalomaniac2012

yes, abigail rose mason...

[ronstero]

anybody heard the new album yet? it's pretty good.

[askl23]

The girl looks like a rock'n'roll Maria Bamford, lol.

[megalomaniac2012]

great song ! who is this girl? so sweettt

[pandachrome90]

It's unbelievable that the simple use of lip-sync is still causing people's brain-boxes to fizz. She's called abigail mason. Now you know she has a girls name you realise how silly you've been, you know, seeing tom standing there as very much a man, and then a separate person, a woman, sitting next to him lip-synching.

Watching fight club must be really baffling.

[mynameismark25]

Life is just an 'f' in 'Lie'

[asita887]

That girl looks like young Debbie Harry from Blondie :-)

[Spaunkx]

Si toi aussi tu viens voir cette vidéo après Canal + =D

[Qwertyrulez4eva]

TOM VEK TOM VEK TOM VEK FOREVER! This video is really clever as well.

[carolineglomseth]

this is, by far, the best I've heard so far in 2011.

[Richtherichisrich]

Absolutely mint!

[Jel2oo7]

Why is Rebecca Black's Friday the first video there? →

[ElmoEl]

Incredible tune.

[zarakisky9]

Tom Vek is a wife!! i didn't know^^!!!

her songs are so good^^!!

[StePark71]

Fantastic!! Been waiting for years for some new stuff and I'm not disappointed. Great

[OgnianIliev]

this feels like listening to a new track from The Prodigy

[xcpete910]

@OgnianIliev How the hell is it like the prodigy???

[CyberSpectrumND]

@xcpete910

I'm wondering that also. I like and know The Prodigy enough to know that this doesn't sound shit like The Prodigy. lmao.

[coolasmyfriend]

@xcpete910 Surely the connotations of 'Wind it up' are there for all to hear? Tom Vec is genius.

[rossomaguire17]

your won looks like bowie

[wilczewicz]

Incredible.

[Clune84]

So happy the man is back. Even joined the "Where is Tom Vek?" facebook group. No-one else does laid-back sleaze like Vek

[MonticArckeys]

I don't know if he can't count or something, but 6 years ago was his album.

[rainbow1308]

It's just amazing , it remind me of Kasabian . But Tom Vek is a real genius in the new electronic wave!

[1crookshanks]

so many morons. The girl is a girl miming. Its tom veks voice and he's not a transsexual or dressed up, hes the guy in the grey suit.

[cloudparter]

@1crookshanks Lip-Synching your moron.

[1crookshanks]

@cloudparter lip-synching is the same thing as miming, moron

[cloudparter]

@1crookshanks Miming is done with your body. Quit calling everyone a moron you moron.

[1crookshanks]

@cloudparter hahaha, yeah it is but its also applicable to lip-synching. just google it if you dont believe me... moron

[cloudparter]

@1crookshanks lol okay... moron.

[llundain]

@1crookshanks I disagree, I believe the singer is indeed Tom, as is the interviewer and quite possible one or two other characters in the vid.

[1crookshanks]

@llundain Really? That would be real cool, I don't think she is tom though, they look different to me. They have different faces and her build is pretty feminine to me in comparison to Toms super masculine physique

[WhisperingSorrows]

@1crookshanks

It's funny how in XXI century you still need to even explain people first of all that this is not Tom Vek and then also how people are sooo close-minded. Even if it was a guy dressed up, transsexual, gay, straight, whatever. Why anyone would care? What is almost ironic is the lyrics "you are not listening to me", fit really well some of the comments. Open your eyes to the world people. Listen, touch, smell, feel, love, don't hate.

[BIGSLMAN]

@WhisperingSorrows Fuck man how could anyone think this girl is Mr. Vek? Jesus, complet retardation.

[WhisperingSorrows]

@BIGSLMAN

exactly :)

[XXXSCHOBELXXX]

@1crookshanks morons on youtube ???? can this be ? i thought the creme de la creme of debate and meaningful conversation meets here...but yeah you are right...;))

[Verseis]

shite, i wish radio one didnt suck him off so much 

[danlikesmusicalot]

@Verseis why did you watch if you dont like this song lol?

[jamzftw]

Has no one heard of lip syncing? 'Cause I'm looking at these comments, and I'm thinking some people haven't. :/

[MrMckenzietyrone]

i think the tom veks re edit version is better.

[TreacleMary]

All the great acts from five years ago are coming back from the dead! Tom Vek, 22-20s, all we need is for Clor and Simian to reform and we're sorted!

[eclectica1]

@TreacleMary Shit, 22-20s are back? DAMN, this is pleasing news!!!!!!!! :-)

[TreacleMary]

@eclectica1

Damn Straight! Saw them at Brighton Audio in October. The new album's a little less thrashy but there are still some cracking tunes on it.

[tmdo]

the girl is abigail rose mason

[leelee003]

@tmdo giggidy.

[michalMG1]

Everytime I wont more. But I have all I need when I hear this song.

BRILLIANT

[sooty23]

Hate to brake it to you but the "woman" is tom dressed up....

[booster330]

@sooty23 Do you honestly believe that?

[danlikesmusicalot]

@sooty23 *facepalm

[yma6selina]

had this song in my head all day, i was humming the tune really badly ha ha. i love it x

[unlearn]

How can you dislike this video, this man, or his music? Get some eyes, ears, and taste you handfed creatures.

[JPNesker]

YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

[davovincent2]

i honestly thought he'd never bring anything else out .

[bravefellowmusic]

bravefellow

[Dizzula]

Oh Yes!

Welcome back Tom :D



[marthos89]

I absolutely love this song!

[MrGreyDreams]

Is it wrong that I think that the deep voice makes her more attractive?

[Dizzula]

@MrGreyDreams - That's not her voice, Tom Vek is doing all the singing. So, erm, yes it's wrong that you think that :D

[MrGreyDreams]

@Dizzula I know that aha,

just something about how she mouths them is sexy paha

and she hardly looks like a transexual so its not that bad

maybz,

Maybe its just the girl in general

[themightycrag]

This guy is very under rated. I have been waitin for some new tom vek material for over 2 years and this was worth the wait. if you're playing in Lleeds, West yorkshire again email me plus i'll keep an eye on the tour dates. brilliant, just brilliant!!!!!!

[hendrixphish420]

[wimmywazzle]

[AussieRoadshow]

Be honest, you all danced like that in the 80s..

[F00bify]

Damn those hormone pills.

[blueshifter]

7 people didn't want to do their chores

[hyperfunkd]

Anyone who can make a breakbeat this good and then fool you into thinking it isn't a breakbeat must be a lovely chap.

[partyhead11]

[TheShakiebreaks]

@partyhead11 Don't we all.

[TheShakiebreaks]

[jaypee293]

[01rob01]

[moonsugar1]

@01rob01 lol.. it turned out alright!! Can finally admit im a bit gay for him now... ha

[cawthy07]

@01rob01 obviously not :P hes in the video, playing the interviewer

[verno123456789]

Man I have missed him so much good to see him back cannot wait for the album !

[seany0800]

[asbwilson1994]

[caterpillerfrenzy]

@Dozwell lol what is wrong with you!

[rayygun]

I don't think I'll last till the new album, i may just explode.

[Tractern]

Heard this on the radio at work at the end of an awful day. Didn't realise who it was at first, but I turned it up and was amazed and warmed by this lovely tune. Literally made my day. Welcome back Mr Vek! :)

[jlhmhk]

@Tractern same here!!

[angeliqueeey]

mogę tego słuchać i słuchać :)

[Maraguzzi]

[CSTATB]

A new Tom Vek song! OMG AMAZING!

[CyPha0]

[funkyshizzle23]

Quality tune. Search 'Spiders - Where does this leave us now?'

[notimetolose100]

Good technique



[maddywoo13]

My poor replay button...its getting all sorts of abuse because of this song.

Seriously I cant stop listening.

[thetealady66]

tom vek looks hot here

[MarleyFB]

Abigail Rose is an angel...

[cantonesespeaker]

"the sharp blade that is your mind". lol.

[cantonesespeaker]

tbh tom vek's music is great, but his lyrics are utter shit

[joabfer2]

"Tom Vek ‘A Chore’ video I directed (Ollie Evans), produced by Leanne Stott, lensed by Marcus Domleo, art directed by Monica Black, styled by Max Clark and starring Abigail Rose, Simon Whybray and Rory Attwell."

[MrMagneticfields]

damn straight its pretty obvious! God I love this tune!

[RawImpactZz]

its not complicated lmfaoo to many retards out there...the girl is miming..the guy with glasses is Tom Vek (The singer) cretins.

[spacemonkeymart]

Great track, video and everything... But that girl is FIT!

A welcome return Tom x

[RussianProverb]

@Acbozym you seen those credits anywhere?

[RussianProverb]

Many have already said it, so I'll reiterate with a quote from papermag.com.

"In this clip directed by Ollie Evans (Klaxons Gossip, Noisettes etc.), Vek plays a 60's TV host introducing a blonde female singer called Leisure Seizure who lip-synchs Vek's vocals while he holds up the cue cards."

[NoonezXLV]

So good to see him back, still sounds as inventive and wonderful as all those years ago. Sad but We Have Sound was my first album so he will always have a place in my heart.

[IDontKnow733]

I've been a fan of Mr Vek for a while now, so glad he's finally back on the scene with such a great song. Can't wait for he new album.

[proppanuts]

Who cares about the gender? The song is kinda cool. Me likey!

[maidenofrohan]

Holy crap I thought it was a girl. Hahaha had me fooled.

[BreakerBeat]

@maidenofrohan Well, it is a girl, right? Goddammit, im so confused by this video..

[maidenofrohan]

@BreakerBeat Nah, I think its a guy. In fact I think its Tom Vek (the guy initially with glasses).
