  • awesome indeed.

  • AWESOOOME!!!!!

  • It's almost like a mashup of the two versions because obviously it's Shatner's cover, but the character in front has kept similar mannerisms to those of the singer from the original Pulp music video. Great Job!

  • In lieu of an "official" video for this song (until I finish filming mine), this is the single-best version I've seen, and I've watched it about 30 times. Any plans to do one from his latest album?

  • great, this should be official video... perfect match...

  • That was fun.

  • Look, I've watched this about 10 times. Why has it only been watch 20K in total? Should be millions. Dare I say it but I like this more than Pulp. Surely the guy in the back is the same as the one in the front just one is superimposed on the other. Maybe we wrong. Why did Shatner do this, why did the guy mime it. don't know; don't care. Brilliant!

  • quality kirk would be proud !

  • This is amazing!! :) sooooo funny

  • Very good matey, very goo!

  • just awesome

  • I have this album on my iTunes, but every time I want to watch this video!!!!

  • These type of videos either make or break songs, this one I am glad to say earned me even more respect for this song. d(^_^)b

  • Absolutely brilliant!!!

  • Dude you're awesome. The best video and an homage to The Great Shatner. You're going on my facebook page.

  • this band is GOOD . . . well done

  • SHATNER FTW!

  • This guy is a lad

  • Hey man - this is brilliant! There's quite a few videos made for this song but this one just blows them away! Really love your expressions and hair flicks while the 'other guy' is singing. Hope you don't mind but I've posted this on Facebook as I think it deserves to be seen by more people. Can't wait for you to make another video. Well done dude!

  • Cute

  • As featured on pulp people.

  • this is great i Favorited this as soon as i watched it

  • Nothing about this wasn't badass.

  • QED, this song is badass.

  • I have a couple of rich friends who are embarrassed by this song. I want to learn the lyrics and sing it to them.

  • the voice suits this guys face

  • Cant get better than this!!! :-)

  • Cant get better than this!!! :-)

  • I dare (common) people to make a better version of this clip because this one is awesome.

    Come on guys, give it a try

  • Pulp's original is a wonderfully melodic, massive anthem... Shatner's cover adds sardonic bite to the satirical lyrics and is a fresh, harder-hitting version... and the sheer talent shown by the forefront actor here puts the tin hat on it. NEVER seen so much expression done using SOMEONE ELSE's voice!.. this is REAL talent. And, no matter the extra pounds, he's got real sex appeal... as in the genuine kind that comes from the mind, not Jarvis Cocker's once-great, but now lost, youthful beauty ;)

  • Well done!

  • rofl.....the guy in the background

  • The simple joy of a video like this, made by a normal guy having a great time, is the reason I love Youtube.

  • very good

  • 1:36 sexy look ;)

  • this is great

  • brilliant

  • love the video dude. I got to hang out with Shatner a couple of weeks ago and you're video is just so freaking cool!

  • I can't stop playing this.

  • Great facial gestures!

  • This is goddamned FANTASTIC. It's such a great song to begin with, then William Shatner's put a whole new spin on it and now you guys have gone one better. Sublime!

  • @cannavaun

    It's one guy cloning himself with a mask...

  • This probably one of the best cover versions i've ever heard in my life..

  • KICK ARSE!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTHIN LIKE IT :D

  • The more I watch it the better it gets. A fantastic song, moving lyrics and a cracking video. Well done!

  • I liked the song very much (pulp version)

    Now I just love it.

    Great combination, Shatner & Jackson

  • This should be the official version of the video if the original artists won't do it.
