Supergrass - Cheapskate

[kinkysatan]

Amazing!!!

[MrMonotone]

I remember seeing this for the first time on 120 minutes almost...13 years ago.

[thebjm1967]

@MrMonotone me, too! i used to tape all the 120 mins on sunday night and come home from school on monday and watch it like 4 times in a row. i miss matt pinfield!

[smurillo1972]

Dig this tune! Does the intro remind you of The Jam?

[jamzftw]

There was another version of this video on the Children of the Monkey Basket website, which showed the names of the band as they came on at the beginning. It also didn't show Gaz spinning on the table as a very fast speed from what I can remember. Sadly, the site's been changed.

Maybe, we'll never get to see it.

[minichapman]

@jamzftw The other version's up now too.

[jamzftw]

@minichapman lol I know I commented on that one too.

[antifolkhero]

Nice jumps! Love that fucking burns guitar, too.

[GazCoombesFan1]

Gaz looks soooo young here - still HOT though!!!!

[Prophet15sg]

all about them is magic, thank you Gaz

[Andres15850]

One of their greatest songs.

[PAULLONDEN]

Return to The Planet Of The Chipmunks.

[merlin69x]

this is the BIGGEST RIPOFF of Ghostbusters that I've ever heard

[GreenDaySupergrass27]

@merlin69x What the hell!? This song sounds NOTHING like Ghostbusters.

[theblackivories]

Supergrass, massive influence, were quite like them, myspace/theblackivories ENJOY

[GreenDaySupergrass27]

"What you doing" lol :)

Love this vid

Can't believe they split :(

Please watch my tribute vid of them and leave a comment

Thanks

[jameyinegypt]

@GreenDaySupergrass27 WHAT! Supergrass have split? just read the comment's on here and it say's they have called it a day, sad day for music :( what a GREAT band they were.

[GreenDaySupergrass27]

@jameyinegypt Yeah they split up in April :'( I'm still mourning and my friends think I'm overeacting but they listen to crap like Justin Bieber.

[Alliworks]

@GreenDaySupergrass27 they listen to who??? im sorry to tell you mate there's no hope for you friends lol

[allenbraz]

By far my fav SG song I wish it were longer.

[TelboyD]

Sad to see you go boys... you've been the soundtrack to many good times. Thanks chaps and good luck with whatever you decide to do either solo, or together, in the future.

[jameyinegypt]

How many great song's have Supergrass got in their closet? mine are Lenny, Time, Mansize Rooster, Cheapskate, G- song, Late In The Day, Richard 3, It's not me, Hollow Little Reign, Sun Hit's The Sky, In It For The Money, Alright, Sitting Up Straight, Caught By The Fuzz, She's So Loose, Strange one's, Lose it and Wait for the sun a great b-side. Not many bad song's then!

[mojopinhead]

@jameyinegypt You speak the truth re: Supergrass. I just got into a Supergrass mood and realized you really can't find a bad song.  You just have to find what suits your mood. Just an amazing band!

[jameyinegypt]

@mojopinhead Thank's my friend, you speak the truth too! i saw them once at Reading , i think in 2001 and they were great! i just loveeee Lenny by them, classic glam rock all the way!

[antblue363]

90s had some good tracks,bot why so hidden like never enough play time why?????????

[seifukusha]

i thought this song was the Richard song! I love it! cheapskate eh? great grea great

[charlesjwalker]

Uh oh... I hope Huey Lewis doesn't sue them for stealing his riff from "I Want a New Drug". Heh heh...

[jameyinegypt]

Have to kind of agree with you on this! sound's very similar to Drug. Though the rhythm on Cheapskate is quite a bit faster and to be honest Supergrass's sound's far more polished and far better then Huey's track! maybe it just sound's similar and Supergrass don't even know the Huey Lewis track!

[Laurajt86]

i love these guys, i love GAZ! awesome band!!!!!!!!!

[britdemmen]

I think this is their best song, absolutely rocks

[CaptainStomach]

Oh My God!!! The Drummer looks like Pete Doherty!!! And Don't try to say You're Crazy! It's Fact =)

[Devast8ion]

HAH! Found this song after many a year.

[spicmcniggerwitz]

the lead singer looks like cromagnon man.

[Alliworks]

im a big supergrass fan but i cant help being slightly embarrassed by this video, the song is great, but the video is a bit,,,,,,,,, i dont know i cant put my finger on what i dont like about it but this video and mansize rooster are probably their worst vids..

i think their best ones are (in no special order) Low C, Pumpin On your Stereo, and Diamond Hoo Ha Man.

[jgray6868]

I will have to disagree, Alli..I think this video is very cool, and clever and you have to remember this vid was shot in like 1997..!! They didn't have the cool technology that they do now for their vids..so i think for its time it's bloody brilliant..and me personally, its annoying as hell the vids with the quick cuts..gimme a headache! At least this vid, you can see them playing, thier facial expressions, like Danny watching where Gaz goes in the room while never missing a beat..great stuff

[k2kopu]

@jgray6868 Agree entirely! Great vid, band and cheapskate really captures the esscence of the band.

[timeofthemumph]

funky as f**k !

[LilLuna1985]

I love the fact Gaz is dressed as Tony Montana.

Supergrass forever!!! :D

[lucasfever]

putz nunca tinha o visto o clipe dessa musica! ateh agr.. hehehe

valeu pelo up

album do krl o In It.. foda memo, bons tempos..

[Queijoia]

o foda é q é o único q ñ foi pro DVD ñ sei porque

[antblue363]

good stuff

[cigaro81]

Should i say, just be supergrass... I have personal love for this band. Oooh kinkay

[cigaro81]

There's a beatle's revolver lick in here somewhere. That's the beauty of the supergrass. They can apply their influences whilst barely being noticed. See 'Alright' and the guitar solo from 'highway star'. 'Roxy' and the sample from ' friends' by led zeppelin These guys are the genuine article. No sarcasm at all intended. I love supergrass. Sample away, whilst creating the brand of rock that you do.

[twattybollock]

Spot on.

Probably why they haven't had the success that 'copying' bands have.

And they are, in my opinion, the most technically excellent you'll ever see live.

This tune is structured to under 3 mins of perfect pop, and is instantly listenable over and over again. Tis to me anyway lol

[pwjensen]

i love this beat it took me like 2 hours to find out who it was by after i heard it in some movie

[antblue363]

always liked this song along with many other not known tunes

[ABlove4]

i love this song.

i heard it in the movie Drive Me Crazy!

[angrynorway]

I've got the US single of this. If you're from the US that probably won't impress you too much. I got a vid of them doing this live on MTV. I'll try and get it up soon... (No jokes please!)

[lucasmaranhao]

yeah man!

please, get it up for us!

=)

[pauldve]

@angrynorway put it right up there.

[steenje]

@angrynorway Okay, I won't use any of my 'up' jokes today! :-)

[minichapman]

why wasn't this on the supergrass is 10 if they had "we still need more"?

[jamzftw]

it's a shame, we still need more is a gr8 song but this is soooooo much better

[rockalyptic]

yeah, I keep asking myself this same question.

[iheilner]

they are way better than the arctic monkeys!!!!!!!! enough said..

[iheartthe80s]

Oh definitely. Cheers.

[edmame]

love this album like my own mother. when they go onstage you can literally feel talent dripping from their bodies.

[earsuboat]

GHOSTBUSTERS!

[maturitysucks]

in it for the money is such a great album. But 2 of the singles off in it for the money shouldent have been singles. Instead of sun hits the sky and late in the day they should have relased this and tonight.

[lnsane]

haha, rob's hair!

what does mick say at the start?

[THEBONEENGINE]

he says 'say allo to my little friend' like in scarface. proper top class song.

[lnsane]

this video totally reminded me of scarface! didn't know it was actually (well, kind of) connected to it, though. thanks~

[jagfan84]

This is one of the most underrated songs in their already impressive catalogue. The slinky funk of the verses breaking into that life-affirming chorus. This is what ALL pop-rock should sound like. 5/5

[yasminx16]

Yes yes YES!

[jameyinegypt]

@jagfan84 I would have to agree with you! :)

[angrynorway]

Supergrass are so good I could puke. They make the best vids. I love the look between Mick and Danny just after 1.00

[lindberg81]

fantastic song... one of the all time best supergrass songs !

[lfdbam]

in it for the money rules!!!

[jedijenkeez45]

this is my absolutely favoritest song of theirs!!!!! it just makes me smile!!!!

[SteveRessel]

Why wasn't this on the DVD? Loved it 10 years ago, love it now.

[featherysunshine]

No, for some unknown reason they left it off! Terrible, no excuse for it.

[Toristory24]

Been looking for this one. Thanks for posting!

[RaoulPeter]

one of my faves! Thanks

[klosarica]

awesome song!my fav!
