Pulp - Common People

[3linaP]

...and dance and drink and screw,

because there's nothing else to do.

[ReverendMickey0671]

not viewable on mobile? I'm a sad panda.

[kristbjorg999]

is that Sadie Frost?

[BaronM]

@kristbjorg999

yes

[EloiseeJade]

Mcr brought me here.

[peteavon]

Why the fuck do you think anyone listening to this song (which is fucking good by the way) would also be in the same demographic of the sacks of shit that buy the latest insipid croonings of someone called 'olly murs'. if carlsberg did dreadful marketing....

[Mist3rTickl3r]

William Shatner and Ben Folds version of this song is pretty good too.

AND SCREW

[Indigodelta383]

the album

[Indigodelta383]

i love this song but i never got to buying

[MDCVFIF]

If she came from Greece these days she would want to live like common people, they're richer!

[TheNeonlights102]

@MDCVFIF fucking idiot. what a generalization.. hes talking about ONE girl. there are tons of wealthy families in Greece. ignorant prick.

[MDCVFIF]

@TheNeonlights102 Ooooh did we touch a nerve?

[TheNeonlights102]

@MDCVFIF i bet your from some 3rd world country where those kinds of statements are accepted. so yes it touch a nerve, does that surprise you? maybe you should wake up and smell the roses sweetheart because as your uneducated mind may not be aware of is the whole world is in a crisis. Greece happens to be the one most deep in dept but the whole world is effected so maybe instead of forming some stupid stereotype and barriers you should try and sympathize with every nation. idiot

[MDCVFIF]

@TheNeonlights102 Tell you what, I'll do that when you learn to recognise a joke, deal?

[TheNeonlights102]

@MDCVFIF nope cupcake. thats my character, i just like is a stand up comedian?

[woods697]

fajna piosenka z jackass

[JaxDasher]

he looks like young John Cusack with the range of emotions of Keanu Reeves

[Anatidaephobia100]

go check out William Shatner'sversion of this... SO GOOD

[EllieSpencie]

Love this vid!

[ColorsBright]

Finally we get the video!

[eltheniol]

Obviously 66 people don't sleep with common people.

[starkidtindle]

the cool thing is is that he grew up near where i live so basically it is where i lives song and it so true peope who are from a richer background always come here and pretend they have no money (and they fail badly) because they think its cool:-)

Like a dog lying in a corner

They will bite you and never warn you

Look out, they'll tear your insides out

'Cos everybody hates a tourist

Especially one who thinks it's all such a laugh

Yeah, and the chip stains and grease

Will come out in the bath

[mych33se]

Its got the "and screw" bit censored out. Some serious swearing there

[TheSkaOreo]

This is beyond the shittiest of the shittiest thing I've ever listen to. Clearly anyone who listens to this have shitty taste and should be exterminated.

[cguitar100]

@TheSkaOreo youre an idiot enjoy the rest of your life

[ThisIsReality2011]

@TheSkaOreo Witty.

[MrDevlin1235]

@TheSkaOreo

3/10

[TheMamaSoul]

Say what you want, but this is a really cool song :))

[idoula12]

well, one thing is sure.the girl on the video is definitely not greek..i mean, look at her teeth.typical english...!

[TheChildOfVenus]

@idoula12 "She came from Greece" means "she was there beacause she had a thirst for knowledge". And Greece is known as the cradle of scluptural art. It was a gift from her loaded daddy. That and her courses at Saint Martin's College. What a spoiled girl she was!

[JBrrou]

my mom says black people dont have homosexual genres

[Vinilindsey]

WTF AM I WATCHING?



[tienkels32]

blur, pulp,suede the best 

[Solon1]

[jonylawson73]

[AiMuiNoodle]

blur are so much better than these guys

[TheIndieMusique]

I would still bang her..

[smeglamaniac]

why the fuck is screw cut from eveery video of this ggrrr utter bollocks

[DamonAlbarnFan]

Pulp + Blur + Suede + Ride= Night of Debauchery

[SirVladHarkonen]

white people cant dance

[misstrousk]

@SirVladHarkonen

either you are a racist..or you are blind

[Cynicor]

Where does Vevo keep the uncensored versions of Pulp songs? I'd like to see Mis-Shapes not cut in half too.

[JoseAriel1408]

I didn't want to give Stub Hub my business (since "ticket brokers" bought most of the tickets), but I couldn't help myself... I will be seeing Pulp April 17th at the Warfield in SF.

[goldeena]

Did he say, Greece? Damn yes he did! Greetings from Greece!!

[skrik8]

VEVO you censor whores, you'll never be like common people

[TheBlackfreddie]

@HecmarJayam a white man saying he wants to live like coloured people would be slightly controversial

[jesusonpot]

It's Mitt Romney's theme song!

[MokeeMouse]

0:17 looks very familiar .....

[load53]

is a good song, and is true is hard living like a common people

[ai9erovamwn]

She came from Greece... :)

[coolklokan]

To je píčovina :DDD

[vlvtrvlvr5613]

omg this is a fucking ripoff of one of my favorites songs AMANTES FROM A BAND CALLED MECANO in the 80's i mean what the fuck with these fucking guys

[hubichuk]

@vlvtrvlvr5613 Love it. Still like this version better.

[clarkydpimp]

@vlvtrvlvr5613 Thats a pretty stupid comment to be honest.

I mean pretty much all music that gets released by any artist/band is just a remake of another song written years prior

[vlvtrvlvr5613]

@ZombieDawg @ZombieDawg my friend you have to do your homework AMANTES is a single from the album DESCANSO DOMINICAL released in 1988

[ZombieDawg]

@vlvtrvlvr5613 Ah yes, I stand corrected. Total melodic ripoff. They're both good songs tho.

[Danyhg92]

@vlvtrvlvr5613 Why is it a rip-off? I have heard the song and apart from the use of irony in the lyrics I see no similarity. And I love Mecano as well so I do know the song.

[RyanFlint18]

Party Tune.

[33tomification33]

Jarvis looks like the child of Dylan Moran and David Tennant

[g17net]

The girl in the beginning of the video is soooooo hot!

[OffSkyline]

she shouldn't have called him common...

[coconutfever123]

i love this song!

[marxmoreira]

preservativos e biberões, that´s common people !

[bute1212]

Woooow! What a great discussion for my comments, everyone thinks what he wants and everyone says what you want and point, what makes me happy is that my account is in one of the top comments! LOL

[JonnyMcCraine22]

Common People is such a classic tune but if you like this you should check out:

THE VINYLS-GET IT OUT OF YOUR HEAD

It only takes 3min and this band are amazing!

[Mamooshka220]

I think I prefer William Shatner's Rendition...

[BizzMarki]

They're gonna be at Coachella.

[blasterdize]

one of the best lyrics

[ozner25]

@bute1212

Lol, many hip hop videos have no white persons in it and nobody say shit about it so shut up.

[dudupoduappu]

@ozner25 yeah if u dnt consider white women as people

[wolfonamission]

This the musical equivalent of a pile of steaming dog shit.

[turnsout689]

@wolfonamission then why in the fuck are you listening to it

[handymandan100]

@wolfonamission you'll never feel like common people

[Kate6331]

Lol, today in music we're doing britpop and my teacher put this song on and went 'It's a bit naughty' I was in creases! Haha.

[blueeyesandspitfire]

Jarvis Cocker is SASSY

[NiloEsquivel]

MECANO D:

[AmbidextrousSpider]

It saddens me that Justin Bieber and whatever other newly released cack is in the charts gets 10million+ views easily and this has only been viewed 600,000 times.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

[Kate6331]

Weird cause I started listening to this and other stuff like this and then the next day at school in music we do Brit pop.

[FAfan06]

Jarvis Cocker gives me Girlboners.

[CatNinja009]

loooooool. Im not saying pulp are crap because they arent, they're good. but i prefer my chemical romance's cover of this over the actual one, which is this. so yeah. COME AT ME BRO.

[audamful]

What the smiths were trying to produce.

[ella489]

61 people are snooty bastards

[TheTutnplok]

...and that's the summary of entire life...

[yiannislibad]

AND SCREW!!!



[graphfanguy]

@yiannislibad I can't believe they cut that! I hear & see WAY worse on here. :/

[geo15rge]

@yiannislibad kai gamw??? :P

[dannieetucker87]

Hopefully they are at reading next year, this year they were amazing !

[TheHitDetector]

Excellent music and superb lyrics....Brilliant piece of beautiful music.....The vocalist has a powerful professional voice...I really love this track.

[overthecarpet]

Ρε παιδία ξέρεις κανείς για ποιά κοπέλα μιλάει;

[solun82]

@overthecarpet για καποια φορτωμενη

[CmdrBittles]

I love how drink is kept in, but screw is bleeped. So, drinking is okay. Fucking is not. lol

[jessxxy]

@CmdrBittles completely agree, nothing wrong with a decent jump to start the day! how else was Society formed... Thats the great British bleep for you, just a load of fucking bleeps arnt they really ;}

[Bombarolo6394]

gay music

[jessxxy]

@Bombarolo6394 - Just out of interest oh uneducated one, but if said tune was written for Gays, why did you listen to it again?? - Jarvis Cocker, lead singer' was indeed a bit of a Cock' BUT and this is the thing, it wasnt about his wank voice or stupid hair cut, it was a thumbs up for the working Class? ;} a Job weldone in my book. bloody unfortunate that said Git turned out to be more up his own arse than those he apparently opposed, but thats hypocricy for you. ;}

[Bombarolo6394]

@jessxxy Thx for the answer, maybe u should rethink it...

I actually dont listen to this music and found it by accident... well after listening to it for 2min i can say that this is some shitty music... Gay idiot singing locking gay, with a ugly voice... THATS BULLSHIT!!!! just saying its my opinion, its ok if u like stuff like that for me..

[jessxxy]

@Bombarolo6394 Thanks for the rapid reply ;} everyone has a right to there own opinion, thats only fair i do imagine.  As said above about said Git' I bare no fan club or Pulp posters' i just, at the time, {when first recorded} appreciated his..... attitude towards our shitty Government {England} complete shame he showed his true colours and joined forces with the enemy but there you go, thats a complete tosser for you. never to be heard of again... ;} ahhhh

[FAfan06]

@Bombarolo6394 Lmao how can you call Jarvis gay, have you heard his lyrics>

[MrSieish]

Uk & brits :)

[masterandmargharita]

Fuck off America with your shit adverts

[kubatomalik]

SIMS ;D



[DefiedHeroes]

Theres a website in the making on progress with NO ADS. Im looking forward to it, Cuz i miss the old Youtube when you click on video and it plays and dont have to wait for the God dam Ads to play. So frustrating.

[bute1212]

It's me or there is not any black person in the video? Thats a kind racist..

[Josabeech]

@bute1212 It's not racist at all, videos don't have to have every kind of minority in it to be politically correct. This video has exclusively white people in it, that doesn't mean the band, or anyone involved in the production of the video, are racist.

[RyanFlint18]

@Josabeech Saying someone is common isn't racist? If anything it's classist.

[northerbrewer]

@RyanFlint18

I liked this song back then and now that I am older. And more secure in my working class life.

I am offended a little by what is implied.

Classist is a very good discription.

When family men with jobs feel cheated might be something wrong.

[Mestitiamortis]

@bute1212 Black people did not exist before Bush

[ElliieeTandy]

@bute1212 seriously?-.-

[edward2910]

@bute1212 It's you. There's not a Scotsman in either, and no Austrians. There are no Asians, but there is reference to a girl why came from Greece (she had a thirst for knowledge).

[Mamooshka220]

@bute1212 There are no hispanics either.... Will you be offended if I'm not offended?

[FanxB]

@bute1212

did you even listen to the song? ... and/or try to understand what it is about?

Trustafarian (google it) rich kids slumming it, with an unrealistic view of what constitutes the poor, working-class "common people". No surprises that the video reflects their unrealistic view, even if that's too cerebral for you to get - I'm guessing you never satisfied your thirst for knowledge at Art School, or anywhere else.

[htfussman32]

@bute1212 And if the "Common People" were black, you would say it's racist.

If the rich "Tourists" were black you would say it's racist.

If there were only a few black people you would say it's racist.

There's seriously no way to win with you people.

[hiemilylovee]

You wanna sleep with common people like me?

[MrMdenning]

The woman is actress Sadie Frost

[kingcole55]

and the girl with the light blue shirt and white dress has really nice tits

[kingcole55]

The girl with the blue top and purple skirt is extremely hot

[fc1873]

@kingcole55

Ive been sayin that for the last 15 years since i first watched this video.. but does anyone know who she is ?

[jammyd16]

worked in an event in vic tunnels in london and pulp turned up!!! best shift i've ever had

[atypi]

This guy was sheldon, before sheldon was sheldon. Love it.

[MissEnyaRose]

This song is awesome.. and I'm 13

[SpAcEpOp9800]

@MissEnyaRose cool story bro.

[baileathacliath24]

cooool.now im on the internet

[kezzla]

does anyone else think that girl in the blue top at 1:48 is the hottest chick in the universe?

[pianofreak14]

why is the top comment hating on VEVO?!

who fucking cares, at least there is video of this song in a good quality!

[BigBrother1993]

@pianofreak14 Because people don't understand we only have music because of VEVO

[jamiestrong94]

i used to live like common people....but then i took and arrow to the knee :(

[pianofreak14]

@jamiestrong94 LOL

[Chuckin55]

@jamiestrong94 LOL!!!

[Yoyoajyoyo]

@jamiestrong94

Har har har, skyrim jokes are great

[Franjo123123]

I heard this song today on radio xD

[TheEnchantingWizard1]

Best music video ever.

[rosanaghmg]

it's missing an entire section of the song???

[therevolvercolombia]

Jarvis...You're too great for vevo

[bapsigraffiti]

i was about 2 mouths old when this was released, i strangely can remember it for some reason

[ClaireMangoify]

You should listen to the Wurzels' version. All of you.

[ch1ral]

Please stop saying 'screw!'

They took it out of the lyrics for a very good reason! I am extraordinarily offended.

[dbodiford]

@ch1ral You hammered the nail in the hole on this. I was feeling bummed, but I now know that I'm not the only with the nuts to bolt when I hear that kind of discussion.

[quizman1967]

Whatever happened to "screw"?

[TheTeaWind]

jeboti fefo mater

[freethechronic]

pulp gave it life, shatner gave it soul.

[wwrjd1523]

is the supermarket part a dig at the Fake Plastic Trees video

[ParagramTree]

Pulp another brilliant Sheffield band along with ABC, The Human League, Def Leppard and punk band the Mau Maus.

[ZakNou20]

Jackass 3?

[JonesArmandoHoward]

It would be awesome if common people died off and then like (I am imitating vernacular deal with it) a race of beings secretly developed on moon base one or Endor evaporated the atmosphere and re created it out of finer quality materials and then completely committed suicide mid way through and everyone that ruined it for the not so common people got reincarnated as frank Zappa's children but with no genitals and they had to defecate to reproduce as well as eat with no drugs at all...

[outrunhero]

I watch my life slide out of view every fucking day...

[Giannibosio]

I'm a common person and I don't just dance and drink.

[freethechronic]

shatners version in better.

[silverwishthelock1]

WILLIAM SHATNER - COMMON PEOPLE - SEARCH lol

[trawanka]

♥ common

[TheHitDetector]

This is a superb track. The lyrics are brilliant!.....The music is first class. I love it!

[NWanglerz]

holy shit... ive been searching for this song for ever, but I kept typing in "Colored People" because I only heard the song from when it starts at 2:15 LOL

[Twombstone420]

Thumbs up if Jessica Stroup sent you here

[300adel300]

first music video where there appears no black. :O

[MyAssStings]

major fag

[CSavageSr]

The girl next to him is the girl from the recent Rembrandt toothpaste ad. She is very attractive. 

[wreyoG]

Ήρθε από την Ελλάδα, είχε μια δίψα για γνώση. Εκεινη σπούδασε γλυπτική στο St.Martin 's College...

[ParaRadio]

@wreyoG malaka! souvlaki!

[uzickimajmunac]

not sure british or just gay

[RobotStrut]

This video and Jarvis Cocker's dancing make me very uncomfortable.
