  • I can't get enough Cox

  • Find God....Brainisyahweh3...and he can prove it.....its gonna get beta....

  • This is an extraordinarily crap video.

  • The production cost of that video must of been enormous

  • Has this guy actually seen the third panel of that Hieronymus Bosch painting? I'm pretty sure things can only get worse...

  • Thanks for ruining a perfectly good song Tony Blair! >:(

  • Oh , yeah. now I remember. This was the song NEW LABOUR were using as their theme song.....

  • i listened to this after i got a terminal cancer

  • watta great tune i read sum of the comments especially liamski689 he says he hated it back then and still does but i disagree i think its a great song and still leaves a legacy pity cant ever say the same for you liamski689 or whatever thefuk u call urself

  • @00johnathon16 remind me never to have an opinion around you

  • Labour ruined this song when they used it for their election campain, and it didnt get better did it.

  • Brian cox is such a lad

  • He sounds a little bit like James Morrison...

  • I was born after this record was released in 1994 but for the first few years of my life this was played constantly on the radio and I hated the song then.

    Out of morbid curiousity, I decided to listen to the track again now to see if my opinion has changed.

    If anything this song sucks even more.

    One of the few bad songs from the 90's.

  • @liamski689

    AH YES BUT IT GOT tONY bLAIR ELECTED! eNOUGH SAID!

  • @3801cc digrace he is, people never learn never fall for the hype, labour win as usual post 92 depression markets are up lots of profits for the the hedge funds/banks and theft of wealth nation thats is unveiled years later. song is a classic but i will always remember it as campaign song for a bunch of liars, they hijack everything, no morals.

  • this song is all you need when you feel that things can only get better

  • love this song lol classic lol

  • all hail the proff

  • I loved this song back in the 90's when I was stationed in the UK. A woman I dated said it was her "theme" song. Sandie, I still think of you and miss you.

  • I always thought a woman sang this song.. Thats completely ruined it for me

  • @ShowerCurtainZz Same!!! I originally thought it was M People for some reason lol

  • @AdamRyanKirkwood Yeah I was almost certain t it was a black woman with a deep voice like M people or tracy chapman, It must sound slightly different on the radio

  • so is this supposed to be ironically "camp" gay, or is it just completely serious and unintentionally ridiculous megagay?

  • the only band ever to split up over scientific differences

  • @ultrapersonthing haha brilliant, comment of the day!

  • 53 disgruntled Tories who don't like physics . . . .

  • i'm going to be honest... there was NOT enough footage of the Prof playing the keyboard....

    i am disappoint.

  • tinted song in England labour antheme to get elected but dont do politics so i was off my tits loving this tune one i will always remember as good times in my life 

  • the universe can only get bigger

  • @adipuppi "Gravity wins" - Professor Brian Cox :o)

  • wishing it is so :)

  • Like this if you loved this brilliant song before Brian Cox became a professor!!

  • Wish I could sing this song to the all the people worried about the worlds finances at the moment...

  • Great song......until Labour fucked it up.........

  • @QuietVuvuzela well said ,they screw everything up

  • If I had a dollar for every pixel in this video, I'd have one dollar.

  • @ComboKickChicken hahahaha

  • @ComboKickChicken Actually, you'd have...

    Around $16512000.

  • @nccvoyager2 It was a joke, but yeah, thanks for telling me, jackass.

  • @ComboKickChicken I'm sorry?

    You're angry with me for doing the math for you?

    I understood it was a joke, but it still makes you look like a dummkopf.

  • Comment removed

  • @ComboKickChicken It'd actually be a little closer to 396288000, but no biggie. Next time, just remember to round to the nearest whole number instead of the nearest 800 million(+1).

  • @ComboKickChicken finally, a funny youtube comment

  • @ComboKickChicken i hear that alot, does it mean video quality is good or bad lol

  • @ComboKickChicken do ya even have a dollar to give haha

  • @ComboKickChicken That's what happens when we cut CERNs budget!

  • collars can only get bigger

  • I'm here because Brian Cox is on the telly right now! :D

  • if i had a million euro for every pixel...i'd still have nothing!

    ..lol , great song. many thanks for the upload. cheers!

  • Opps Flash plugin player has just crashed.

    ffs.

  • this song means alot to me ! bcos when i was first born my dad was a raggen alcoholic and he wrote this song for my mum and he was in the street with his friends and a man stopped him and sayed he would buy him beer if he gave himm the song! and now d-ream are a big thing with this song and its thanks to my dad :D xx

  • Love it when they always put this song on when snooker finishes and they review all the matches

  • Labour 2015!

  • I will retire about then paid in CHF. When I visit England (I would never want to live there) with Labour in power the economy will get smashed again and the pound even more worthless. My money will go even further. I cannot vote ut if I could it would be for Labour. Not good reasons but well.....

  • The "real" Brian Cox is kept in a led lined case under the student centre on Oxford Street. His mere presence that he can walk your path and ware you shoes is the introduction for first years about the quantum instability of the cosmos ... and also to teach them where their shoes are

  • well he coxed that one up.

  • How I like this song!  things...

  • I can remember when I was like 9 or 10 years old, I was on this school holiday program at this rollerblading rink, doing laps with my friends and this song was blasting away, happy memories.

  • Hey! Look at the particle physicist on the keyboard! Oh the Wonders of Brian Cox! er...the Solar System.....

  • cant even see cox clearly..

  • The Tories are the UK's misfortune!!

  • its amazing to think professor brian cox started here

  • LIKE THIS IN 2011 :O)

  • Thumbs up if you're here because you think Tony Blair was a great Prime Minister!

  • Public Service Announcement: Things can also get a helluva lot worse! Crackin' tune though :-D

  • fuck the labour party , letting in every cunt from every other country , this countrys full !

    labour fucked up this country and to have a great song be used in a fucked up party that destroyed this country has pissed me up .

    DO NOT VOTE LABOUR !

  • @TheMancSam I wrote a huge paragraph then deleted it because your a fucking idiot

  • @TheMancSam What choice do we have? Every party is the same, and would have done the same.

  • What happened to the lyrics b4 the main tune??????,good upload anyway mate

  • Love the song and the Prof but hate the f*cking Tories!

  • this must be the sadest song ever because if things can only get better than in what kind of fucked position must you be in??

  • GREAT TUNE AND A GOOD DERRY MAN HE IS !!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • i find this song kind of ironic. surely you should know, Brian, due to the 2nd law of thermodynamics entropy is always increasing, meaning that over time the universe gets colder, matter breaks down to energy, and energy disperses throughout the universe into an equilibrated state. the law also implies that structures break down, particles and matter spreads out and become alot more 'mixed up' and dis-ordered

    surely the song should be entitled "Thing can only get worse"

  • My english isn`t that bad ....i guess...as i could not understand the message of this song...i love it...!

  • Anyone here because of the Labour Party? :P

  • @TheBeatleboy64 :') yeppp

  • I believe Brian Cox is'nt in this vid playing the keyboard! Look another registration:

    the channel of: dreaamrthi Lets make things better and than at 1:52

  • Things did get better... Coxy abandoned this utter shite and did something really useful. What a fucking awful song! No wonder NuLabour chose it, it was as shite as they were.
