@bigboss25262 but its not the best quality video, and the idiots that go on about lip syncing, would you not think the dubbing is just out going from analougr to digital??? it does happen.
that was a great movie with Serkus as Ian, amazing, Sex and Drugs and Rock and Rollwas it? I miss my old London but I guess it goes on in anew form. RIP Ian, love from Harold Hill

No, this is mimed, possibly TOTP. There is a Jools Holland clip of the same song on YouTube - the Bishop guy does an Ian Paisley accent rather than the Cockney one here (the studio version).
thats because of the cancer medication at first wasnt right so it made him very skinny and then due to this the correct medication reacted and made him larger than expected.
What Madness and Ian & The Blockheads had in common - apart from the excellent musicianship, was that their lyrics were always about interesting things - sometimes love, but usually other things.
Most touching moment ever at a concert was when Madness played the vid on the big screen at the SECC shortly after Ian's death and all 7 sat in a row on stage to watch it. Brought tears to many an eye that night, mine included.
Notice how Madness, the ultimate showmen, hold back in this in repsect to Ian Dury. Hats off to them for showing that respect and, of course to Ian Dury for this fantastic performance :)
Ian Dury was a genius cockney songwriter. In 78, when I was 13, his was my first ever concert. His "Best of" album is one of my favorites. RIP Mr Dury.

Ian Dury and Madness. What a brilliant idea.
They won't be together in this world ever again.
The music was beautiful--mysterious, menacing ska.
All the best, mate.

An easy way to discover if someone is a chap or a git... Merely ask 'To what extent do you worship Ian Dury?'
The answer will tell you all you need to know.
All hail Saint Ian of Kilburn (and the High Roads)!
