The fast show - Mr Wells

[IpswichTilliDie1]

Still better than most stuff in the charts nowadays

[wildley007]

I would buy this song instantly if it was released!!

[jcpadmore]

@wildley007 - Me too!

[footodor1]

Who's the guy in the middle?

[THALIDO]

@footodor1 The guy in the midldle is Charlie Higson

[AdamskiLawlerski]

don't get it. What's so funny? :S

[benrfc]

@AdamskiLawlerski what a mongo

[AdamskiLawlerski]

@benrfc When I first wached the video I had the sound down low, that's why I didn't get it. Now I do. You're a bit of a twat, aren't you? Seems your main purpose is to slag people off, itr looks a bit pathetic.

[jcpadmore]

@benrfc - Totally! :-D

[1967RTMOPAR]

i forgot about this sketch, brilliant, i,ve now watched it 20 times, love it . 

[formulaonehumour]

scorchio!!!!!! 

[benrfc]

@formulaonehumour hmmm...one of them

[Stevo1982]

Still makes me laugh, 15-16 years later!! Anyone know the chords??

[FiveMag1cs]

Mister Wells-ells-ells-ells-ells-ells­

[DariusBlue]

Charlie Higson was a bona fide indie rocker back in the 1980's, so this would have been nostalgic for him.

[benrfc]

@DariusBlue Reeeeeeally? What cereal does he like? You absolute tool

[DerekTaff]

I know the band's meant to be Oasis, but I've just found out that Blur wrote Country House as a massive dig at their then-manager...does anyone suppose The Fast Show are referencing that story?

[benrfc]

@DerekTaff No

[DerekTaff]

@benrfc Why not?

[thelefthandpath]

lol i remember this so well

[petkovicdejan]

It sounds like heavily distorted Beatles from their Rubber Soul/Revolver period haha :)

[switcher007]

The guy mouthing along to "sad old bat" is hilarious

[schpleeb]

@switcher007 that's Charlie Higson, absolute legend.

[ruirid]

it's definitely season 2... have it on DVD.

[thesteveus]

Who is the bloke in the middle?

[jondorono]

@thesteveus Charlie Higson..

[thesteveus]

That song is actually pretty good

[TheGorehound101]

Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!

[minexkv]

this song alone is better than the whole oasis discography

[ataraxiapathy]

KILL YOURSELF MISTER WELLS

[killwill83]

It is the 1st series actually.

[kerstmanneke82]

@killwill83 No it's not. Second if I'm not mistaken.

[DrFoofyMan]

People that think this tripe song is good...your musical taste is pathetic.

[nationwidejazzman95]

this sketch is from the second series

[Anuskasv0]

One of the best punchlines ever

[Slapbass13]

Lol.

Reminds me of Paint A Vulgar picture off Strangeways by the Smiths.

[julosx]

I remember a song from the Smiths called "Paint A Vulgar Picture" that basically meant the same (about their record company).

[2puttking]

"im a deviant"

[CharlietheBadass]

does anyone know if can get an Mp3 of this song ? lol

[thespoon94]

@CharlietheBadass If I had this on my iPod, I would listen to it religiously every day! I LOVE The Fast Show! Thankyou for this golden nugget of comedy Paul, Charlie, Simon and John!

[JtheBs]

Brilliant. Just brilliant!

[mancteddybear1690]

Such a simple concept for a sketch, yet so funny. We miss you Fast Show!

[ordowski]

We sure do. What happened to sketch shows?

[vivobene]

when i first saw this sketch, i think i actually burst a lung cos i laughed so hard.

[PeteGeeza86]

Haha! Sounds like a cross between The Stone Roses and Oasis!

[JamesTheEdge14]

haha genius :d

[Befnall]

Fried Gold

[steffecki]

OASIS pure...

[beckysol777]

BRILLIANTO! Thats the single! ++

[DayFul]

I hadn't heard this in years it's funny and very catchy :p

[MasterWarri]

This is actually a pretty good song :D

[zionravescene]

The song Oasis wished they'd written!

[MaestroB0B]

Never get enough of this one...lol

[noahlovesnesquick]

I must have watched this on the telly about a hundred years ago and forgotten all about it...

AMA-ZA-ZING!

[bugstrut]

I saw Simon Day doing stand up, back in '95'/'96, and to this day, he's still the funniest stand up I've ever seen. Shame his sitcom, 'Grass', wasn't as funny.

[Nakasoul]

They should have made Monkfish as a show instead :D

[Sou1Cru5h]

its so fucking realistic

aaaahahaha

[Khomradeigor]

"Like a monkey jerking off"

[lillostsoul21]

I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS A MONKEY CHUCKIN UP?? hmm, now I cant decide! lol!!

[Caff68]

Definitely "jerking off", mate...goes with the hand action LOL

[fg67hhkd9]

Mr Wells, Car Pollution Hypocrisy and Kick in the Sun are actually great tunes.

[binaryfinary444]

You mean they actually released some songs?

[Kevjin]

No. I think he juat meant the are CHOOONS!

[Caff68]

I don't need no melted chocolate on the seats of my Ferrari LOL

[wonderpope]

twaaaaaaaaaaaat....mr. wells your a twat! LOL

[jimplym]

Total genius. 'Stick your record company up your arse!'

[kansashornet71]

[pcoll04]

Elspeth, they produces the best and most original sketch show of its generation what more do you want?

[djstib]

[Eraslayer]

I love this song!

[ikbenlaura]

[GoldenFallingHeart]

[paudical]
