Ian Dury and the Blockheads-Reasons TBC Pt3@Hammersmith

[ThomasJMercer]

I was there

[aeschhere]

i wish justin (can that be right) Bieber could hear and get this . He should .

[chiqistar]

Interesting how 'Hit me' still seems to get more airplay, yet whenever I talk to people about which song is best, they usually say this. Great live solo!

[paulflat30]

god bless ian. i was there. it was a ball.

[busybee6363]

My dad used to sing the "reasons to be cheerful part 3. reasons to be cheerful part 1 2 3" bit all the time :)

[butlincat2]

[butlincat2]

[ianni57]

Watt-Roy! Chaz! ID! Charley! Mick! Davey!, Mick! Oh, bliss . . . One of the best musical evenings of my life: Cloudland Ballroom, maybe 1981, 2000 kindred spirits, the sprung floor pestering everybody to dance, sensi everywhere in the air as Norman pumped out the fattest, bounciest, biggest and baddest bass lines they'd ever heard . . . une monstre sacré if ever there was one . . .

[GetCaribou]

Always loved this tune.

Ian Dury - the finest poet laureate we never had. What a shame.

[kapowski00]

you can't beat it!

[Tosty99]

Gawd bless 'em. I miss him badly. This is one of my favourite songs of all time......right back to when I first heard it, about August 1979. A timeless classic.

[rholy37]

Excellent. Ian Dury and the Blockheads having fun with a turn of phrase and a rapper if ever there was one! Nothing naughty, really!

[dh300c]

R.I.P Ian, f*cking excellent, so much better than most of the modern toss

[MissTrixie1]

I can think of many reasons to be cheerful. This song is one of them.

[ilawn43]

Absolutely great lyrics and what music

[moe17moe]

thanx man, the Blockheads are by far one of the greatest live bands around,and Ian , well there will never be another songwriter (lyric wise) like him. one of a kind.

[haroldturkeypants]

Damn straight!

[JohnnyRocketFingers]

More people need to hear this. The world would be a better place.

[drdapoo]

Ow my you Brits sure do know how to make good music!

[Purvi30]

Awesome

[baconsandwich2007]

"Cheddar chesse and pickle. The Vincent Motorsickle. Slap and tickle" How many other reasons to be cheerful do you need? Lord Upminster, you are sadly missed.

[scouteliot]

You will never need to know parts 1 & 2, skip the previous reasons, now it's already up to 3, as it's really great to be cheerful! (she says dancing to herself)
