Size of a Cow TOTP - The Wonder Stuff

[AbsintheGirl27]

Me I'd like to think that life is like a drink and I'm hoping that it tastes like bourbon - YEAH my anthem!!!!

[07pollee2ndtime]

this is my anthem!

[171manutd]

i am related to miles hunt, that is all.

[89eagles98]

i saw miles hunt and erica nockles last night in nantwich!!! they were amazing

[nasher931]

love this song, but hate the show. they're blatantly miming, he doesnt have a microphone and the guitars aren't even plugged in

[mikalashaw]

this song reminds me of me,ratty Ian helmet and mika! :) x

[lucycotton5]

where are you now? I know i'm not where I thought i would be, but how are you doin'?

[FEARxMaGiiK]

Saw them at bug-jam 25 they are just great =D

[Cruithne3753]

Every time I see a picture of Rebekah Brooks, this song pops into my head.

I wonder why? ;-)

[MrHappySlapable]

Wow!!!!!!!!! Singing along right now!!!!!!!!

[SacrificialMullet]

Just went on to their website to see about buying some of their music. It said "All items listed below are for sale to UK customers only"

No wonder the music business is phucked.

[SimonB198207]

Bless the 1990s.... damn it, i miss them

[mickb55]

does Miles have brothers names Mike or Isaaac?

Great song

[rugshort]

Good band. Shame about the album titles.

[bradfordlass83]

Great song...even greater miming lol

[pfive]

I remember this song from the 'Shine' compilation i got when i was 12. Do you think nostalgia is perhaps tainted a few opinions here? Calling bands of today shallow by comparison is a bit much for what is basically a novelty single

[dakota0706]

Just brilliant...xxx



[Nic1973KISS]

Great song.

[Nic1973KISS]

Great song. Reminds me of Slade.

[indiechick301]

Oh memories!

[postiesince89]

my son was 2 years old when we watched this on totp, i distinctly remember it, and for ages after i had to sing it to him, even incorporating a "moo"!

[KoenHead]

Miles Hunt and the brutally underrated Luke Haines of The Auteurs were my two favorite songwriters of the 90's. In a smarter world, these guys would have been megastars. The Wonder Stuff were consistently great and yet many here in the U.S. had never heard of them........The Blue Aeroplanes were another wonderfully literate band. But I digress. These guys rocked and still sound incredible.....

[v74Bvdmp]

wow this band was rubbish but so much better than wot we have i can't remember those days lol

[chrissy50100]

EEEEEE this brings back brilliant memories.

[missramdomgirls]

you know the lead guitar man that's my moms old boy friend

[girlfriendofnone]

I still wonder how I could sing the lyrics and love the music. I need James and Ned's (Atomic Dustbin) and so much The Wedding present.

Please come play @ christiania

[MartfulBodger]

why are bands today so shallow and shit by comparison?

[aelfredhauscarl]

@MartfulBodger for today's bands are cooperate rent boys

[Riskmangler]

@MartfulBodger I think the reason is because today's bands are influenced by garbage. A lot of today's "punk" bands grew up listening to Green Day, not 50-60's ska or other "roots" music. So, it's kind of incestuous - It's all very self-referential with no knowledge or curiosity about the source material (or at least the really good stuff that came before - Roxy Music, Eno, Bowie, classic blues etc.).

[kazimann]

@MartfulBodger The X-Factor has music ruined.

[Trialbystone17]

I have to endure this song all day on the bloody T Cup Ride at Longleat where I work! And for that reason I hate it. But I just wanted to check You Tube to see who these guys actually were.

[TheNellysFJ]

well today i cut malcolms hair... he is a regular at my salon and a devoted father and a really nice down to earth guy to go with it

[MiklePrickles]

@TheNellysFJ malc was my nextdoor neighbour for 10 or so years, yes he is a really nice bloke

[BunnyProle]

I LOVE THE WONDER STUFF!!!

[indiechick301]

Every time i hear this song it makes me happy

[rasp2711]

I'd have shot the lot off them given the chance...

[blackguarding]

good memories

[despairohdeapair]

Fucking dreadful suit... Great song though

[leetonosaki]

Lol yup a complety fucking dreadful suit sort of like something on of the old Dr who's would wear or Noddy Holden.

[PadSpin]

@leetonosaki It's Holder!

[kazimann]

Such a cool and uplifting song!

They don't make 'em like this anymore.

[LarissaLIBERTY]

I was 91....this is cool :D

[fitzwilliamcobra]

lucky to still be alive at your age

[LarissaLIBERTY]

:D :D :D LOL you are right I am lucky,oh shit I meant I was BORN in 1991 xDDDD ^^ I forgot the word born

[87SaL87]

God, this brings back soooooooooo many memories!!!! I'd have only been about 5 or 6 but the memories...wow! Loved it then & love it now :D

[09mrPNJ]

same here i was 8 great times.

[ThanksforJesus]

I once put my dick up inside the keyboardist, it was like fucking a marshmellow with a dixie stick. Oh wait, that's what I did.

[daniellacatton]

My boyfriend went to school with the singer. And played in the same band as his brother.

[faceofpo]

My Dad went to school with the drummer. He only found out a few years ago, even after seeing this on telly he didn't realise it was him.

[chairmanmeow1973]

I went to school with the singer and the drummer. And was married to both of them at the same time...

[PhilDY6]

And your point is what exactly?? Every "rockstar" had about a 1000 kids that went to school with them, it's life!!!!!!

[planetmoonscape]

great Midlands band!

[mikemccord]

off to see them at leeds in a couple of months.

[rajaboy]

Just Brilliant. 1991 was a fab year 4 me & in July that year had our best family holiday 2 California, LOL my dad had this on the radio in car on way to airport & I was singing 2 it

[quasiman8]

1991 was a brilliant year for me too. Infact one of my best.

[bepojome]

scottio 23 you are a complete bender.

[scottio23]

[izzzzythedog]

[georeff23]

What happened to the next Noddy Holder?!? Problem is that the Stuffies never released a sure fire Christmas hit... altough there is still time!

[papke25]

Great song this hit fueled my alcoholism for years thanks.

[upoofters]

[chookter1]

I was 10 last week and this still makes me feel old.

Seriously tho, Room 410 isnt even on this site and im horrified.

[87SaL87]

I'd have just turned 4 years old...memories...

[petemid8]

Quality. Reminds me of happy days living with my folks, not a care in the world:)

[EQ2snorkle]

[whitteydog]

What the hell happened to the ending????

[supalev]

quality

[PadSpin]

Great feelgood song! :)

[fanclub1990]

see my stuffies vids on myspace ^_^

[8ASPINALL8]

The beginning of the end :-( , Hup seemed a distant memory.

[boybandmassacre]

the start of the pantomime period.this was a great tune though.never loved elvis was a bit lame

[Xiolablu3]

Never Loved Elvis contained their greatest works :-

Mission Drive

Here Comes Everyone

38 Line Poem

ALso contains their best single now :- Circlesquare

[harrydunne113]

Mission drive was a decent tune.."Here comes everyone" was over produced and directionless.."38 line poem" was self indulgent,self obsessed pompous bilge"Hup in my opinion was far better but I respect your opinion too..

[Xiolablu3]

'Here Comes Everyone' lifts me up onto a high whenever I hear it, great uplifting pop song without being cheesy.

38 line poem is just a good track..

[fanclub1990]

a!!!!!

[fanclub1990]

band

[fanclub1990]

A GREAT

[fanclub1990]

WOT

[fanclub1990]

HUP HUP HUP HUP

[Momoko55]

i lOVE THESE GUYSS!!!!!

[JigsawJones]

do they always lip synch on TOTP, and if so, WHY?

[alithehat]

Yeah, they did for years and years. See Nirvama Lip-Syncing Smells Like Teen Spirit in '91. They were banned for ages from BBC for it. It's class.

[dancingladyboy]

these days are the best days of my life just see where im living!!!!

[barthyb]

still love this one,wicked song.

[whitteydog]

This was a great song!! What the hell happened to the Wonder Stuff? These should be the best days of my life!!

[danisinkz]

thats some great miming!

[EVILDYSLEXSIC]

used to sing this coming home from the pub, we even bought the vinyl singles to put on the pub jukebox, grew our hair and bought acoustic guitars, when a band does that to you they must be good, stuffies forever

[BeethovenLives]

came out the year I was born :P

[Lee22R]

THE WONDER STUFF - OUTSTANDING!!!

[stormyweld]

LOL, this really reminds me of when I went to Holland with my junior school when I was 11. It's still a cool song!

[salbie87]

God I remember this! & I was only 4 years old! Wow! Not heard it in years!

[listen69nessie]
