  • Unreal when will Pulp come to Oz?

  • 5 people are lower than common.

  • Would Pulp come and play in Leicester?

  • Best song

  • Comment removed

  • it's by far one of the best songs that have ever been written.

  • This song is like "Elenor Rigby" from the perspective of "the lonely people"

  • Prefer this original over the single cut. No part of this song should be cut, it's all amazing.

  • @CounterMike Totally agree. The best part is when it says "you`ll never understand how it feels to live your life with no meaning or control..."

  • @HotandColdTap i think thats not a charateristic for only greek people but i think i do.. :)

  • I can remember when I was little, my mum had a Pulp tape, and she always used to play it in the car :') Reminds me of Christmas, this one? But to be fair, most songs do? My Mum's car got stolen though :S We managed to find the car, but they'd taken the tape :(

  • Best pop song ever. Thumbs up for being a Common Person!

  • I'M FROM GREECE :) :) :) :)

  • Class rage!

  • Gamato tragoudi!!

  • sick ending

  • cool, the album version!! Bloody record companies block this song/video from uk, under 'copyright reasons'.... strange this, consider PULP are a BRITISH group....

    They need to get their blasted licensing laws sorted out, common sense-wise!!! 

  • There are way more than one spelling mistake in this clip...

  • 3 people are not common people :D !!

  • Great!!! Just want to dance when I listen to this song!!

  • So accurate:)

  • The best and most profound song I know.

  • I hate your shitty goverments, but the brits sure can make brilliant pop music.

    "She just smiled and held my hand..."

    Didn't she just!?!?

  • @Uzzie101 Ah Government is predominantly shit because they lick your arse. Fuck off septic tank

  • And now rated the second best song of the 90's per Pitchfork

  • Jarvis Cockers! :D

  • @chillz225 15 years ago

  • THIS SONG IS JUST MINT!!!!!!

  • Great song

  • amazing lyrics

    :)

  • Pulp-tastic! love that song!

  • I've always thought it was "she told me that her dept was loaded" because I just can't understand the meaning of "her dad was loaded?" if anyone knows the meaning of that here would they please explain? I'm norwegian and it really bothers me every time I hear it :P

  • @Felixoknaxo It means her dad is rich.

  • @Felixoknaxo it means that her dad was very rich, i think :)

  • seeing the words makes this so poignant and even more significant...

    inspired!!!

  • Can anyone live like common people nowadays though???

  • I am Greek, and I want to live like common people, can I????

  • for like the last 4 years for some reason, i thought this was sung by soft cell (the same people who sung tainted love)...

    :/

  • To date, the single greatest song I've ever heard. I cry when I hear this, not that it's a sad song, but just the music alone is that good! I'm an American and I love British music.

  • i <3 british pop!!

  • Bloody brilliant. Long version. Tis the best

  • @moonrockguy i know :D one of my faves!

  • oh... I'm from greece :O

    xax

  • @Maya0898 nai!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @libertineprincess

    :DDD xerw poli maya :D xD

  • @Maya0898 geia!nayia!xD

  • Thumbs up for British pop

  • @universaliss it's British Indie, you fool

  • @Kitsunew91 no, it's britpop. look up britpop.

  • This song ended up in my sociology seminar at university. Then, I decided to use it in an essay about what united working class people.... Songs like these can be a turning point too!!!!

  • sing along with the common people sing along and it mite just get you trough lauhgh along with the common people laugh along even tho there laughtin at you ;) awsome song!

  • Awesome song... One of my absolute favorites.

  • and then dance, drink and screw

    because there's nothing else to do

  • Sing along with the common people ;)

  • Although im only 16, i LOVE! this song soooo much, it is the most amazing thing. There aren't bands like pulp, the clash, sex pistols and joy divison. its all MCR and panic at the disco now days. its crap!

  • Is this a different version? It sounds different than the one on my iPod.

  • Its from my dads album CD... :)

  • @GoldenFranz this is from the different class album you prob got the radio edit i usewd to have the single I got it whenit 1st came out showing my age

  • I agree with you about the dissing. The song is not likely to appeal to the sensibilities of some one your age. You might feel differently about it in time.

  • Switched on kerrang on the radio the other day and this came on its one of the most profound songs i have ever heard - whoever wrote it has really lived

    the last time i heard anything nearly as good was the who's my generation

  • Jarvis Cocker wrote this about a greek girl he met at uni in london whos daddy was loaded and would never dream of letting her struggle for herself. awesome song.

  • The lyrics are sooo true in this song! Wealthy people will never know what it is like to love like common people with nothing to do!

  • One of the greatest pop songs ever made.

  • lmfao. TWAT

  • "grotesque" <<< explain!!! or forever be a wanker!!!

  • exemplifies beautifully the class system in britain!!!... love it!!!

  • @treschicestmoi

    nah... it ain't just britain. it's everywhere.

  • pretty good. nice video. love this song even if it is really old lol :)

  • this reminds me of my ex bird hahaha fuckin toff!

  • i fucking love this song thanks for uploading

  • Jarvis sounds pretty angry towards the end.

  • 1st comment woot! good song

  • My first video how very exciting... i spotted the spelling mistake ahh s**t :(

  • @bananasrule1992
