THE UNDERTONES - Here comes the summer

[KobaltThoriumG]

Young Feargal Sharkey!!!  :) 1985 he sings "A good heart"!

[blueboy680]

Saw them last night in Brighton. Absolutely amazing. Also, was so good to see such a diversity of age groups. Plenty of us aged punks but students too. Everybody was having a great time.

[meabhish]

The keyboard player's a ledgend.

[humphreysofa]

Just been to see the Undertones tonight in Belfast at Ulster Hall with divine comedy and Ash, all great but The Undertones were just amazing!!

[rosaleenauk]

@humphreysofa lucky! are they still going?

[BeatsAndPulses]

0:34

Hilarious keyboard player

[WasChipHere]

it should be like twice as long, DAMNIT.

[airsoldieruk]

@ZuleiLove.....No, me too. but clearly 18 others weren't over-concerned about it.

[ZuleiLove]

Am I the only one amazed by the quality?

[mathiasdu30000]

Merci la pub de la new Golf cabriolet

Sinon super groupe

[WoltrakPSN]

J'ai cette musique dans la tête à cause de la pub des Golf

[Guilleramos]

@WoltrakPSN it was a great success in the late 70´s, regards from Spain.

[Osbe1]

@WoltrakPSN Pareil pour moi !!

[WoltrakPSN]

@Osbe1 ça fait longtemps que j'ai pas vu cette pub, je ne sais même pas si elle passe encore. Donc je reviens ici écouter la musique des fois ^^

[nabil3x]

@WoltrakPSN Yo también, la pub es igual en España

[hombredistorsion]

This group, " Siniestro Total" also have a song who says"Ayatollah don´t touch mi dick again" but people not always represents its leaders.

[hombredistorsion]

They have and accident, not the undertones, a spanish punk group called:"Siniestro total"the name:"Siniestro total" says the Insurance Company, the car was crash but they still alive, so they take the name a sing a son who says "Hey Baby what can i do, summer come and no vampire likes the sun" I like so much this song and years go i discover it´s was the song o a group called Undertones, so better, i Haven´t money to buy compact disc but yes for Undertones.

[hombredistorsion]

أليغري، والموسيقى الجيدة من القاعدة

[scherzomortale]

@hombredistorsion i agree.



[trippy898]

they were good but s l f are the best PUNK band ever

[Melock1]

[hfdbl]

VW Golf commercial!! hahahahahahaha :D

[nappyapplerecs]

Very much like the Dickies

[MicRidget]

Just notice that VW ( VolksWagen, german car industry ) put this great song on a tv commercial, nearly 24 hours put out on german TV. Well, i am not sad about this... first, its a great song and so its great many other 'mainstream' or younger people be able to listen to this and on the other hand... my first car was a VW!!! A VW Polo ( Fox Modell )! Build in 1986 and broke down in 2005. Great memories about this car- haha, also love to listen to UNDERTONES in the Tape-Deck.

[glem64]

i listened to this when i was 5 in 2006

[patsnaso]

Golf Convertible Commercial !!!

[bossendenwoodconvict]

This song is short enough. What a shame we are robbed of another 10 seconds by Steve Wright babling over the end of it.

[BANDOGZ30]

"always loving the Undertones and The Clash also .." cheers, Bandogz.

[Pjohnnners]

Quality. Best live band ever.

[XTheimageX]

@Pjohnnners i think there miming....

[salvadory]

radiohead need to watch this video and learn not to take themselves so seriously- and so do alot of others! Sometimes simple heartfelt catchy powerpop is all you need !

[klc2002]

Well done mate - this is still the best youtube file up there - quality tune! :-)

[ronaldvanderkleij]

[smartkle]

So Great... excume me.. So Amazing...

[BeatsAndPulses]

Haha the keyboardist just doesnt care :L

Undertones are legends

[wasdanah]

best band ever with a singer called Feargal.

[DavidJohnLovell1]

Great band, pissed all over the Boomtown prats.

[kemalux]

[MilenaCasey]

LOVE THIS BAND! And I discovered them like 20 minutes ago... :P

[bananasplitsable]

Alot of artists mimed on TOTP. Cheryl Cole mimed on X Factor, not that I watch crap like that, but so it was said.

[trashwomenn]

his cheekbones are gorgeous.

[BLINDMASTER121]

THE BEST BAND EVER TO COME OUT OF LONDONDERRY

[leniwiec656]

Defekt muzgó - Lato z browarem

[shermenz]

You people seem to like this "band"...

Did anyone even notice that the guy on the keyboard is not even FUCKING PLAYING?!

0:30

[Stumaloo]

@shermenz

This was top of the pops were for a long time bands were not permitted to play live.

[xArmagideonTime]

@shermenz Yeah, that's because it'sTop of the Pops, you massive twat.

The Undertones were amazing, what's your fucking problem?

[Maeveybutt]

@shermenz years ago on top of the pops it was normal for them to lip synch/ pretend to play their instruments. if you ever get the chance look up the programme Top of the Pops 2/ TOTP2 this happened loads in the 70's, 80's and i think even the 90's for loads of artists/bands. They do play their own instruments in real life. :)

[HannahLouise091]

@Maeveybutt Apparently The Stranglers were once so indignant at being expected to mime on TOTP that they removed the strings from their guitars as some form of artistic protest :)

[shermenz]

@Maeveybutt That's fine...

But dude... at least look like you're trying!

at 0:30 he looks like he's having a spasm, and at 0:37... really?

[gazor850904]

"Defekt Muzgó - Lato z browarem" Good cover of punk-rock band from the Polish. Greetings from Central Europe!

[orangensaft0]

"top of the POPS"

you idiot, it's rock -.-

[Gordini60]

@orangensaft0

It was the time when Rock was popular. So it´s Rock and Pop.

[Trentino8]

shit house band

[bananasplitsable]

Love the Undertones!

[1963deecee]

LOOOORve Fergal.xxxxxxx

[skatertumen]

[nik1969100]

1:37 of sheer power. Bloody brilliant!

[kuttepiel]

Feargull Sharky?

[skullhacks78]

[mitchdov]

Fantastic song. Their first two LP's are brilliant and I saw them about 5 years ago in Bristol and they were superb. Happy days!!

[joelgil42]

MicRidget gas it right. Stiff Little Finger and The Undertones Unreal.

[BlondeRocknRoll]

how young does he look there .. great times..when TOTPs, was ok .. to watch ..just ok .. lol

[hitachicm721f]

I love this video even the cheesy lip-syncing

[LoveShiaGDSN]

dear Undertones, I love you. that is all.

[birdy47]

Its strange how people say ''you cant join a record company or be on TOTP or you're a sellout'' because EVERY famous Punk Rock band joined one, thats right, The Clash, Sex Pistols, The Damned, The Ramones, Stiff Little Fingers, Uk Subs etc... and the whole totp's thing, just look at Nirvana, Oasis and Manic Street Preachers on TOTP's and see what you could actually achive.

[leonaofficial]

@birdy47 LOL ! I dont know where you were but The Sex Pistols , UK Subs , The Damned , The Ramones and Stiff Little Fingers all went on Top Of The Pops . Only The Clash didnt.

[cahoot06]

@leonaofficial  sorry but The Clash have been on TOTP,

[45rpmSINGLES]

@cahoot06 The Clash never appeared on Top of The Pops . I know they played live on a BBC show called Something Else a clip of which might have featured on TOTP2 but never TOTP

[MrShiteside]

Saw them live a few years back, the new singer is fantastic for a guy of his age. Top gig.

[MissJoyVay]

I love the kid on keyboards

[mardycustard]

fuckin steve wrights a fuckin prick spoils every song by talking his opinionated shit over every song to this day-steve wrights big show on radio 2-he needs his tongue removed-wanker

[3tangle3]

stop bull shitting about nationalities...you are your own unique person not a country ..now stfu and get out and end these strange empire dreams ;P

[Brentenriegel]

Here ist is. 2010 - 06 - 04. Best Summer Fun Song EVER.

Sure, tommorow I will get my first suburn this year.

[pinkandjefflynne]

Not in the UK, fucking shit weather, wet and windy like my poo stained pants.

[kirkwallboy]

Must have been a real pisser, knowing that all of you created this, and are more talented than the idiot presenter and his camera man. And that you have to mime. Cos you sold your soul for a record company wage. To be on TOTP.

[milkkart]

@kirkwallboy lead singer's a shill for the BPL/record industry now too.

[94hanniie]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh... Heree comess thee summer xD Summer '10 - Gonna be tha best yet.. =D

[Chickenchowname]

Undertones and SLF <3

[katy1423]

Here comes the summerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :D x

[GaryReggae]

Great tune but a rubbish performance...just watch the keyboard player at the end, he's obviously miming!

[BentleyGriley]

@GaryReggae Top of the Pops forced people to mime. He's taking the piss, you donkey.

[jarsonist]

@GaryReggae Ladies and Gentlemen, the Sherlock Holmes medal for deduction goes to .................. GaryReggae! How on Earth did you figure out he was miming?

[guitarlawyer75]

This is great! I had never heard this band before! They are FANTASTIC!

[ninelivecat]

@guitarlawyer75 Yeah they are cool

[dyemeblond]

[LonEr4evah]

[Boycee0891]

[punkrockxzz]

[urchin76]

[doctorwho907]

@urchin76 Was?

[Hollandia777]

Loved the way an organ player plays, especially at 0:39-0:40! LOL

[sinner48]

[BellamyGuitar28Girl]

wow this is really good video for 1979!

[Maloney1888]

see yaes at the arsenal game bhoys

[viliku]

LATO Z BROWAREM

[biddymagee]

is mickey bradley playing the keyboards on this?

[HairyBosch]

Yes, hence FS saying "Hey Mickey, what's incoherently mean?" on the album version.

[Kieronoldham]

If you can actually call it playing considering his jokey mannerisms, yep! :)

[supermidget1992]

my mate gets drumming lessons from their drummer, his dad is his next door neighbour lol

[Anforsure]

whahaha, freaking funny ^^

[Ricer1968]

great band but without feargal its like having atourch with no batteries

[FergR]

Have you actually SEEN the 'Tones without Sharkey??

I like to think that having seen the band loads of times with both he and Paul, I'm in a position to say that they are far better now than they were in the 80s.

The 'Tones were always about John and Dee's guitars and Mickey having a laugh.....

Sharkey was just a singer. Remember he contributed nothing to the songwriting...

[Ricer1968]

yes i ve seen them and i stand by what i said

[SagasRightPeg]

100 percent agree with you on that. I saw the band play at Eastleigh festival a couple of years ago and they really were nothing special without Sharkey

[adezeta18]

fantastic song! thanks for share :)

[anarchistcookbook]

paula!!?? jajaja

[PartyBoy64]

They lipsynched it. Hahah look at the keyboardist

[narcofiche]

Unfortunately, a lot of bands had to do that back then in order to get the gig - especially punk bands who were known to do something crazy. The Damned used to do this a lot and were really funny about it. There's one video where the guitarist breaks his guitar in half and still plays it.

[orient1961]

A spring time anthem always....

[Foziajungle]

Here comes the summer very soon.

[PartyBoy64]

The Lead Singer looks kind've like a doll, because you can see his cheek bones.

[KerreyTheBitterSugar]

I love this song

[zenhenswain]

are the undertones catholic?

[barnowl01292]

What the hell does that matter?

Stupid comment mate...

[zenhen]

Shut the fuck up

[teenidol12]

LOL!!!!

[stripeyroom]

Yes, I do believe they all came from Catholic families.

[zenhenswain]

thanks i was just wondering

[Sabatinitennis]

A greatly under-rated ditty of theirs and I saw Feargal outside Charing X Stn in London last week.

[gumbigordless666]

irish ramones fuck yea!!!

[fuckinbritishbastard]

they're irish read the cover of the anthology album.........it says irelands greatest ever band.+ they're catholics frm the north which also makes them irish so shut the fuk up u british cunts

[ajhutchy6]

i would call them northern irish mate. what does religion matter?

[blade0954]

great song from a great band,couldnt care less what religion they are

[redskins1928]

pure Derry. pure dead brilliant . Irelands finest. Derry City FC forever.

[stupidxmidget]

Here lads let's keep this about the table.

[fayrouz2008]

abit poofy

[dannnz123]

Stop The Fighting Between The Irish And the Engliish..I for one used to live in Ireland and my sister was born there..so..Stop the Fighting

[Tilfeldig123]

While I agree - So fucking what?

[dannnz123]

lmfao..u told me.

[Kieronoldham]

Incidentially, can we all get back to talking about the fact we all initially decided to view a video of a damn good song by a f**king great band. P.S. the 'Tones themselves are representative about the best in Irish Catholic youth. They dont and have never refused to play to 'the Brits': cant you all aspire to their admirable standards?

[conzorzf]

Of course they aren't the same country. There's miles of water between them. End of.

[tommy6000009]

England are countries just like Northern Ireland is and both of them are constituent countries of the UK.Idiot.

[tommy6000009]

So in relation to this idiot LorcaDMeath, I think I should clear some things up for the people that are silly enough to believe this idiot.

First he says when you look up a Northern Irish band they say they are Irish, well that is opinion the facts say different, Idiot.

Secondly to say Northern Ireland is not a country but a constituent country..hmm well he has said it himself it is a county the key word in constituent country being, yes you guessed it "country" Idiot.

[LorcanDMeath]

england is a country and was before the union. it could be independant if it wanted , the north couldnt. the north would never be recognised by international bodies either. its represented in the union jack by ireland st.patricks flag. if they really were two different country why do they have the same patron saint.

[tommy6000009]

Actually They are not from Ireland "married2greenday" they are from Northern Ireland, a seperate country which is part of the United kingdom along with England Scotland and Wales. :)

[LorcanDMeath]

shut the fuck up you orange bastard. they are irish and proud. look at their myspace page. "northern ireland" is a failed political illigitimate state created out of british terrorism. they were born in DERRY, EIRE so their irish

got news for ye. the irish have outgrown the prods and its only a matter of time before a voting majority. there a hole host of all island things being set up now aswell. ireland will be united soon. say otherwise, i dont care but its inevitable

[Kellerharius]

Not Derry, it's Doire. Failte a chaire. :)

[LorcanDMeath]

haha ye sorry. i was just pointing out the fact its not "london" DERRY.

saoirse DOIRE agus ÉIRE

[tony1721]

'cause you breed like vermin.

[ArnieB0i]

hey dickboy 'their irish'??? that would imply that irish belongs to them. it's they're irish. for all the bragging about how taig schools are so good at english they still produce a fair amount of retards like yourself

[zenhenswain]

got that right

[LorcanDMeath]

also some things are considered by both side of the norths community as irish eg. the rugby team. music is aswell. go look up any "northern ireland" musician and you'll see they will say they are an irish musician

and "northern ireland" isnt a country. its a constituent country which is not a country. it will never be independant and could never survive. also any referendum in the north is do the people want to stay part of the uk or unite with ireland. theres never any 3rd independant option

[tony1721]

by the way,,i like The Undertones, great band,

[omginatizzy]

lol. he looks so young,lol

[feargal75]

who can indicate what happened to Feargal Sharkey's right eye ????? during years ...

[married2greenday]

Another great band that Ireland should be very proud of.. =D

[dazzer268]

ulster

[WhimsicalQuandary]

Oh look, It's on of those inbred facist types that is to thick to understand that Ireland is much better of as a united nation.

[LorcanDMeath]

yes your correct dazzer268. ulster one of the four historic and present IRISH PROVENCES

[feargal75]

absolutely excellent !!! but what are the Undertones without FEARGAL SHARKEY ??????
