  • I don't like female songwriters, normally, but this is a moving song. If you can strike a chord with the blokes, then you are on to something.

    Keep it up Emmy!

  • @blikeredaxis there are many great female songwriters

  • Hang on, This is still a great song. It makes me feel warm inside that people can still write stuff like this. It reminds me of the Kinks.

  • This is a fantastic song.

  • Emmy The Great is incredible, don't think she isn't because she isn't doing great in the charts. With most acts these days, it they are in the charts, it's because they appeal to the lowest denominator of people in British and American society.

    But the UK especially will always have a core group of proper music lovers, where the likes of Emmy and Seth Lakeman will be appreciated for the incredible talent they have.

    Emmy vs N'Dubz? I rest my case...

  • Emmy says, "sorry, we're together."

  • @flopsy1997xfactor Well I think she deserves success regardless of what reputation she might get for being in the charts.

  • @nevermind1927 You can be a successful artist without being in the charts. And being in the charts means nothing, there’s a lot of shit in the top 40 these days. I wouldn’t want to be surrounded with that. The most talented artists are hardly seen in charts.

  • The nu-folk movement in London is giving my hope for music and mankind.

  • I have to agree with you all. Emmy is GREAT!

  • I would like to be with a girl like Emmy. She is so kind, I love her.

  • love this song! she has such a great voice :)

  • I love Emmy,hugely underrated.Hope she makes it big one day!

  • I fucking love this. Emmy, you have a gift, come to the usa, come and stay at my house, I'll drink just enough to sing with you and you'll be so gracious as not to bash me or look at me funny.

  • jesus

  • naww love this songgg :)

  • omg<3 this song always hang around in my mind after i have only heard it once :)

  • I'm unsure as to why the video tries so hard to appear to be american when it is so obviously set in britain.

  • Ha ha ha! My oh my, she got you good and proper Mr Adam Richard! On the internet as well, fucking hell!...and for the record, Bob, you are my hero, and I only met you twice, admittedly yourself and Storm took my drugs and didn't say thank you, but it was an entertaining evening none the less. Nice hat too. And my fondest regards to Emmy xx gotta love the internet...ha ha ha!

  • The skater guys @2.18 are seriously dope

  • Ha ha ha BOB FOSTER you are my HERO

  • Don't lie! Bob is almost my hero! I don't believe she almost had a baby either, I think she just shit a wig. True tales...word yo...word...xx

  • i love emmy.i should have been at her concert when she was in singapore.come again please (:

  • What! She came to Singapore and I didn't know about it. I live in Singapore. When?

  • erm,sometime last year.cant remember.she was interviewed by channel news asia haha.that's how i heard of her haha

  • I love this video, I don't think it would be possible to make a video that "fits" without it being too upsetting, or becoming a film! That is such a cute baby :) I love Emmy, I saw her at The Big Chill, she was really good and really funny

  • i love how it's such a sweet video to a song with such upsetting lyrics

  • Brilliant!

  • Nice Calvin and Hobbes drawing on the chalkboard! That's skillzzz.

  • The video doesn't fit very well even if it is funny. The song is so wonderful, I love how it sounds kind of jaunty and pretty and the lyrics are so horrifying.

  • I love the stories she weaves, intwinned with beautiful folk music =]

    Urban folk, almost. It's beautiful. This, and Edward is Dadward are my favourites

    OH

    and is it jsut me or do a LOT of her songs are about sex, or feature sex.

  • yeah ... i like

  • song = wow!!

  • lmao great vid

  • It's a funny idea, badly done. I'm as bad a Dad as this guy! I saw her live a couple of days ago. She can really sing and it grips you listening to all the stories she tells. Let's face it she's not in the same league as Billy Bragg or Joni Mitchell yet but I hope she sticks with it.

  • what a funny video!!! I love this song, I just love it!! Emmy is truly great

  • To be honest, I think the vid could've been better - but honestly - the girl used her brain and her emotions to make the video. Therefore, the video could never be rubbish.

    I wish I was around there. I'd make a video. I love her music, and it inspires me in my film work.

  • Guy's shirt reminds me of Clockers...that was like 20 years ago.

  • Na you're wrong mate.. this is a GREAT vid

  • is this the real video? its RUBBISH if it is.. love Emmy but.. this really is pitiful

  • Agreed.

  • Gotta start somewhere I guess

  • Is that Jaz with Emmy at 1:51, the one she sometimes mentions in her songs?

  • omg i think it is =]

  • i love this video

  • I love this song!

  • anyone else seeing her at ULU? on 20th feb i think

  • I've fallen in love with this song.

    I'm going to see this lady when shes playing this March in Belfast. Quite looking forwards to it.

  • this is amazing!

  • this is so london

    back in a week

  • much like your videos x

  • if you are not smiling due to this conversation then you have a problem. its funny, you know that "i like" video you made? i could swear we have the same taste (except im not so bitter) Prince, Biggy, Noam Chomsky, i prefer Root beer to D&B and i bet you like Roger Troutman too x

  • hahaha

  • man i'm not a suck up just a diplomat. clearly you have no sense of humor. i was right about Roger troutman wasn't I huh huh?

  • i knew it! i bloody well knew it. mate thanks for putting a smile on my face

  • (L)

  • Great video! I love this song :)

  • is this realy specially good or what ?????

  • I like the hat of Emmy's friend, and am considering a similar purchase.

  • as am i. x

  • is this single online only? i really want it :O

  • it's available on 7" too. you can order it from the rough trade record shop website

  • Crazy video, love it!

  • I was switched on to her thanks to her work with Lightspeed Champion but I'm very much digging her own stuff.

  • gr8 song and the vid is kwl, wudnt buy it tho coz am a scottish waster and enemy of the middle class! hahahaha. luv emmy tho.

  • Heard this on the radio tonight love it

  • that guy is the fittest guy i ever saw

  • Does this make Robin famous too??

  • this is simply sublime, a treat!

  • Lovely video, great song.

  • Are you all mad? This is one of the best music videos ever made...up there with Slow Club and Bob Dylan! The only bad thing about is I found I wasn't listening to the brilliance of the song as I was laughing too much!

  • wow you guys know a lot about the music industry you must be big record label executives

  • The video is funny, but it's just too amateur, don't you think?

    Anyway, I love Emmy and I hope she's very succesful with her album! She could be big with a proper promo...but unfortunately, I don't think she'll have that ...

    I love her cameo!!

  • totally agree on all counts

  • Hilarious video :D Can't wait for the single! I still think you should do a proper release of 'The Hypnotist's Son' though, that's song is so amaaazing!

  • who is that guy? he's fit.

  • amazing song (:

  • wonderful song but ordinary video.

  • haha, aww emmy only appearing for like 2 seconds :(

    i love the song, think the videos a bit rubbish tbh
