History Today - Robert Smith Parody

[dstdvl]

fucking retarded. people will laugh at ANYTHING.

[SedatedGhostwriter]

Laughed my arse off!

I'll be needing it back though.

[electroarv]

@SedatedGhostwriter Arse! ow, pardon me, different show. :-)

[HTFAmvs]

Amazing.

[XtalGameVids]

i swear robert smith was a guest in a scetch about him on mwe

[EyesLikeBroccoli]

@XtalGameVids Yes he was. He was in the Ray sketch once.

[squall600]

lol even singing children songs are sad to him

[LittleMissAwesome110]

"Here's my handle and here's my............spout"

Oh god why am I laughing so hard

[CureFan123]

Hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!

[headbangin1]

@FrontLA4ever Putan, beyotch. Well done, you can swear in five different languages, doesn't make you a genius and it doesn't make me an idiot. It makes you look like a douchy cunt along with stating that "im smrter than u lol". And I'm far from being the village idiot @_@

[M3ggy]

I love it! sooo funny :)

[ImSoRandom567]

here is my handle and here is my...........spout.

HERES MY SPOUT!

[TheGothicsun]

omg that is hilarious!!! <3 The Cure!

[hanspeterpitsch]

@FrontLA4ever Translation: I can't take a joke

[WarpedFlange]

The people who love The Cure so much and hate this really don't know much about them. As others have said Robert Smith was on TMWE and he also appeared on 'Newman & Baddiel in Pieces'. Robert's appeared on loads of other things on British TV poking fun at himself. He, unlike the uninformed haters on youtube, has a sense of humour!

[headbangin1]

@FrontLA4ever Then you're also a faggot.

[gordyuk68]

funny guy i bet bob liked it too

[manumanup13]

PPPP UUUU TTT OOO!

[manumanup13]

PUTO!

[TyghtAlso]

@FrontLA4ever It was a great night though.When He sang it.They were over two hours late for the gig and they just charmed the pants off everyone.Now if You hated David Baddiel's parody of Suade at the Wembly arena You'd have had Me there.It's shite.I'm a fanboy of both Robert Newman and Robert Smith.I know to todays ear it sounds a bit crass and blunt but in its day this was genius(it's not a word I use often and this suits it).

[SpongiformSpongee]

lmao

[MadMemy]

ahauhauah ooh that's true, you do such alike robert XD

[Fluxxi]

Whahaha, I'm a Cure fan and I can't stop laughing :D

[BaTeRoLoZaNo]

fuck you!!!!!!

[curie78]

? ? ? ? ?

[lmac1970]

I was a bit down until I watched this. Now crying with laughter

[ABeautifuILie]

"And mouth and eyes and heart all bleed" Though I love Disintegration that really hits the bull's-eye . However, not as hot as Robert for sure ;p

[carolineburns]

Blatently 'Cold' :-)

[dylandior123]

Hilarious! :-p

[jazzmanEE]

this is funny...i love the cure, but THIS is the best take on robert smith that i ve ever seen..its spot on

[thepooptag]

what an idiot

[mojito28]

Essential Cure :-)

[cloverfield911]

Which song is this a parody of? The music sounds familiar.

[Goldsack]

I think its sounds mostly like 100 years with other pornography tracks mixed in.

[AgentOrange93]

Something from disintegration...maybe

[AgentOrange93]

Last Dance from disintegration

[Wowbagger86]

Old kid's song ;) Should be familiar for everyone who's been in kindergarden :)

[cloverfield911]

yes, thanks for the insight into the LYRICS!!!! ;))))

[Wowbagger86]

lol, guess that was a bit unnesseseary. Missunderstood ;) The melody is familiar, but I have no clue...

[lolintarwebs]

fucking lol hahaha

[2degucitas]

He doesn't even have time to put on and take off the makeup, but it works anyway!

[gavbag1234]

Oh man,

Rob Newman really is a new man these days,

History of oil is sheer genius

[windsorceress95]

ROFL!

This video is made of win! :D♥

[alax19]

His voice is annoying as hell, but that was pretty spot on, hah.

[darcymetal]

shite

[slimslam21]

hillarious!

[2degucitas]

OMGord, this is dead on funny! Thanks for posting. I never would have found this otherwise.

[DemonicFlyingUnicorn]

LMAO I love this.

[christschinwon]

round & round we go!!!

[GatoPoder]

Mary Whitehouse Experience fans trump Cure fans anyway. Robert Smith was something of a fan himself. I seem to recall seeing him on the show at one point. Brilliant.

[bryemycaz]

Yes he was in the the sketch about Ray? the man who was born with sarcastic speech. Ray was a Cure fan and he met Robert Smith at the end of the final sketch. Robert proceded to punch him out using the line "Oh No What a Personal Disaster"

[desmodul]

oh,its so nice,5 for you,big greats ,andy;)

[DANIEL87bucket]

this guy got it just right- it's 'so robert' hahahaha (fuck lol)

[Ninnative]

I wonder if he'd object to being called "Bobbie Smith?"

[mabs94ctid]

wtf?

[ajittffcure]

Very funny. Well made. Apart from that, I think the music here is really good!

[gothicwolvenfurry]

if the cure would make this album... i would totally buy it XD

[ajittffcure]

Yeah, I would as well...

[KidWithHeroinEyes]

I'm a huge Cure fan I love the band,but the video is funny as hell!Why don't all cure fans take this video as a joke and take things so seriously?Relax people!

[LookingGlassThecure]

im a huge cure fan myself and I agree this video is very funny..i can laugh at this sort of shit I dont take it too serious..

[KidWithHeroinEyes]

Yeah,I'm really surprised that the other Cure fans didn't like it and say things like:lame and shit,I thought that Cure fans have a sense of humor and are open-minded people,unfortunatelly it isn't like this.

[nebogina]

yeah im a mega cure fan an i love this video. no one could really pick on the cure they are one of the most inspired bands in the world. but this is cool this video

[dionrosete]

OOOOOhhhaaaaaa!!!!

[CaerBannog1]

This was a running joke on the Mary Whitehouse Experience they had Rob Newman singing a different nursery rhyme every week. Rob was a huge Cure fan and Robert Smith actually appeared on the show in at least two sketches the best one was where he punched Rob Newman as 'Ray' in the Face 'Oh what a terrible personal disaster'.

[Chameleam]

If you are a fan of The Cure, or Robert Smith, you wouldn't find this irritating, or mean, or stupid, it would only seam that much funnier!

[thesemenincident]

@Chameleam Agreed... I was expecting something really dumb when I happened upon this video, but I actually cracked the fuck up when he started singing... KUDOS, SIR.

[nymphytonkks]

@Chameleam haha exactly! I love The Cure because they have this...aura, I guess. Ah this is great!

[kararulestheworld]

I actually think its pretty funny... :-D

[savajess]

LAME!

[30000fps]

FUCKING ASSWIPE! NOT FUNNY!

Did't anyone warn you that this isn't funny in any way, or did you not listen to them?

Stupid, cos they wanted to spare you a humiliation on the

world-wide-web.

Off course Smith loved this take on him, cos it makes him look about a thousand times better.

[robertsmithrulz]

sad you have to put people down dude to make yourself feel better and try to sponge off Robert Smiths name and image to make a penny for yourself, personally ROBERT SMITH RULZ, he's laughing all the way to the bank, maybe if he saw you on the way he would spit in your cup, naw your not even worth that. The Cure, Robert Smith is a music god, your just a leach

[jimmeumeu]

1000 % stupid, is that supposed to be funny ? I can't believe people has paid to go to see this man on stage

[Hadogei123456789]

I'm a Cure fan and I think it's hilarious.

[jupitercrash07]

I have to agree. I love The Cure and I cannot help but find this funny.

[StuBram2]

Yeah same here

I adore the Cure and frankly, Newman captured Smith's essence quite excellently, its hilarious

[aixaam]

what that fuck!!!

pure shit!

[thecure021283]

:-D nothing else to say :-D

[KyojinWithScissors]

Hahaha... That was pretty good! Though, it seems to be one of those things only Cure fans would actually get... :]

[robmysmith]

HAHAHAHAHAA!!!!!! LOL!!

[tetheredthinker]

robert smith LOVED robert newmans take on him - it's not meant to be a perfect imitation, but a loving impersonation - it's all gone a bit tricky!! ahh those were the days :)

[solidd24]

poor idiot..... lol

[sellingthemystery]

That was just BAD. I have always loved The Cure and I love a GOOD joke but that was just lame. Robert's voice does not crack like that and he is very graceful. That guy had absolutely NOTHING going for him...and what stupid, unoriginal words.

[dysonlaz]

Can we stop bashing Goths, Robert Smith and whoever this genius us imprtonating him? Its mockery with affection, I think, and its done so well.

[kjurzyca]

I've been a Cure freak for about 12 years now, but I must say I absolutely love this!

[zezarsmith]

FUCK

[SalientBen]

well done cure fans, way to prove what a bunch of miserable no marks you all are :D

[uncloser]

wow. it's prove something? LOL)

[BillyBird]

LOL Awesome !

[uncloser]

necessary to laugh after a word "shovel"

[Lobotomyu]

Nice fatbob satire

[madsgjrup]

that track? which album is it from? cause there's another parody here on youtube, where they are using exactly the same track as this,, but,, what is it called ? XD

[malinffs]

hahaha he really sounds like robert smith!

[cornwalldave]

Dude, you REALLY don't get it, do you?

[stefanoscuderi]

very very funny.....i'm still laughing.....

[deadlyduet123]

: \ I'm not too happy with this video. Robert Smith has talent, this person who's impersonating him, does not. I don't understand why people make fun of Robert, he's an idol.

[fartingpenguin]

It's all in good fun, people make fun of dream theater all the time, I don't care, I just laugh.

[fiendishfilms]

really? robert liked it. he even appeared in their tv show, as a mourner at rob newman's funeral.

i guess mr. smith's got a sense of humour.

you should look into getting one of those....

[deadlyduet123]

I can't believe I posted that!!! I'm such an idiot. Ugh, I'm so weird. Sorry about that. I find it quite hilarious now. So bizarre.

[Tom2610]

"Robert Smith has talent, this person who's impersonating him, does not."

Rob Newman has a hell of a lot of talent, as it happens.

[Virginiaotis]

Como ímitación es malísima. Y además no tiene gracia. :-/

[Atirpt]

LOOOOOL

I'm a cure fan also but this is hilarious!!!!!

[maxydog]

omg - pathetic aussie humour

[TheEndAsWeKnowIt]

Well, it would've been funnier if he had the smeared lipstick on, but I thought it was a little cute.

[RIAloves]

Derrrrrr....

[niquezillUH]

im a cure fan, and i loled when i saw this

[lcvd1]

I'm a big fan of The Cure and this one made me laugh.

[djemil5]

That's funny in a stupid way.

[bornagaindaemon]

lol oh my

[lutonlutonalltheway]

LOL! XD

[oliver010989]

that is actualli funny lol

[xRoipnol]

uhmmmm......it's not that funny....

[ellebelelly]

hmm... I get it, but not really funny

rs rocks

[steev75]

its not that funny....

[MissAlabaster]

If Robert Smith found it so offensive, why'd he appear on their TV show sending himself up? Fat Bob's got a sense of humour. A bypass isn't necessary to be a Cure fan.

[emnonwodog]

It IS funny and I'll deck anyone that says different.

[offtosleep78]

it isn't funny at all...the guy should change profession

[MikaTauriainen]

lasciate stare il grande Robert :-| grrr

[SmiertSpionem]

SPOT ON!

[rikkrude]

that was fuckin funny so true so life like of robert smith, your still cool robert smith

[suddenhush]

what's the name of the song?

[abcdille]

I think it doesn't exist, anyway it sounds like "pornography" but it isn't!

[lette7]

Lame!!!!!!!

[GatoPoder]

The Mary Whitehouse Experience was brilliant. It's absolutely unfair that the BBC has yet to release it. The Gameboy game set to The Smiths was ace too. These guys were an English Indie lover's wet dream.

[Centellaz]

hahahahaha. Look at him go at the end! Robert's walk!

[Lullaby148]

Weell... that was nothing like him.

[curegirl1]

LIKE A SHIT

[Loveless333]

More stupid shit.

[paulisit]

actually its crap

[piercedandproud]

LOL just as funny now as it was in the 80s. Have you got the clip that Robert actually appeared in?

[luffeh]

haha I love it <3

Even though I fucking love Robert LOL

[Scottmachin]

Robert Smith was on Newman and Baddiel...at least he has a sense of humour, unlike the Cure fans here leaving comments...

[Dude421]

But this is really funny

[Dude421]

Robert Smith was cool when they first started out

[AlleycatJo]

I think he sounds more like Axle Rose on hellium.. Robert Smith rocks!!

[CrypticDreamweaver]

Not funny...Robert Smith is AWESOME!!!

[4a4a4a]

actually it's not funny at all.

[dyingbride]

off course he's not that gloomy, but in parodies it's funnier to make some things bigger than they are. this was funny :D. love rob <3

[lenorebug]

Aww, why do they always make fun of Robert? He's not THAT gloomy. Still it's entertaining, same as The Laughing Postman or whatever it was :D

[daveyshrike]

Policeman. And THAT was a better spoof of old gloomy-guts.

[lenorebug]

Right, Policeman! Thanks!

[luffeh]

Slightly funny.

[lywingoth]

Thats freaking hilarious! love it! he does great rhymes... "HEAD SHOULDERS KNEES AND TOES. EARS EYES AND NOSE!"
