David Thewlis is such a great actor. Feckin love this song ❤
He really is one of the top five greatest actors alive in my opinion. This film (Naked) was my introduction to him. It’s an old favorite.
Pink Flag is such an underrated brilliant album
Is it underrated? It’s usually in the lists of best punk albums
I think Wire are definitely overlooked and an underrated band when you compare the rubbish that’s been around since - only true fans know about WIRE - if you asked a kid if they’ve heard of The Cure or Nirvana they more than likely have / yet you mention WIRE or MAGAZINE and they’ve no clue
Kids today don't know what "underrated" or "iconic" mean and use both to mean "something I like"
@@docsavage8640 It’s all part of the new and revised version of the English language - “post-internet English”. It may seem like a joke, but I’m completely serious. The internet, which has been in common usage around the globe now for roughly a quarter century, has effectively changed the way we talk, and the meaning of certain words/phrases. Most common among these changed words are words like “underrated”, “iconic”, and “epic”… and phrases like “ahead of his/her/it’s/their time”. Those are the ones I see most on social media anyway.
I’m not offering a personal opinion on any of this. My opinions are irrelevant in this context. I’m merely stating an observation.
I realize that I’m only adding more fuel to the fire here, but no… Pink Flag really isn’t underrated. First of all, who exactly is doing all this rating? The media? Who cares what they think? Wire doesn’t need their approval or validation, and never has. All I know is that in my experience, anyone who’s opinion has ever mattered to me, for the most part has typically always regarded Pink Flag as one of the all time greatest albums ever made by anybody, not that it matters. The only “rating” that truly matters to me is my own personal opinion.
I first listened to this incredible album in its entirety for the very first time in late summer 1980. I was about a month shy of turning 13 years old. It blew me away on first listen and I was immediately hooked. From that point forward I listened to it every day for about 3 or 4 months, until it was essentially burned into my brain, and even though I still had a lot to learn about everything at that age, I somehow already knew that it was always going to be one of those albums that would rarely, if ever be topped by anything else I heard in the years to come. A gold standard.
And then I heard Chairs Missing and 154, but that’s a whole other story.
I’m 62 and have requested Mannequin be sung by the attendees
I just watched 'Naked' after watching this video. Good movie. This is an awesome song, especially the backing vocals.
One of my all time favorite movies, and my introduction to David Thewlis.
amazing song, makes me remember when i was 15 going through an eating disorder, i used to listen to this song every single day
Wire is probably the most influential band to come out of the "77 British Punk scene. So important and formative too many musicians period covered by Minor Threat, fIREHOSE, as well as Henrietta Collins & the wife-beating child haters. This is just a very important and influential album.
Covered by 80 's basque country legendary band RIP too.song called txapelgorri about basque police.12xu
albarn and blur, too...lots of wire there
It has definitely been one of my own personal biggest influences through the years, as have Chairs Missing and 154, which took me a bit longer to appreciate, but once I did became essential listening. Those three albums are probably the best example of a band hyper-evolving in a short period of time that I can think of.
Naked is a perfect film to express this song’s sentiment. Excellent.
@peterlancaster8800 So, what did you think? Surely you’ve watched it by now?
Simply fucking brilliant! Scenes from one of my all time favorite films, set to one of my all time favorite songs, by one of my all time favorite bands. Love it!
witch movie is this?
@@sandro2669 Naked.
It's an underground masterpiece
Superb movie, I got the newly released Blu-ray of it last month. And to match it up to this awesome Wire track is an act of genius !
Whoever put this video together is a f'kin genius. 👍
Incredible Album, every single song !
And they followed it up with two more equally incredible albums. Their first three albums are the most impressive example of rapid evolution ever committed to vinyl. Should always be listened to in chronological order.
WE LOVE WIRE!!!!!! Saludos desde Argentina!
Wire are poets laureate. period.
Pleasant surprise to see one of my favorite songs set to scenes from NAKED. Well done. Thank you.
Wire frickin love this
This song with this movie... so ridiculously perfect. Can't stop coming back here lol
Naked. Great film.
The best record from the original punk 75 77 end of ❤
Love Wire, covered some of their songs but still brilliant originals
can't believe this is before unknown pleasures
My fav Wire track! ...and they have so much amazing material..
Yes they do. What an amazing discography! Still going today, though it’s been a bit of a spell since the last album (2020). With the sole exception of the very early 90’s, they’ve been consistently good-to-great with the overall quality of their recordings. I could have done without Manscape though. Dreadful album.
god DAMN. absolutely amazing editing
It really is. Plus the lyrics are a great match for the scenes. This is one of the best fan-made videos I’ve ever seen in my 13 years on RUclips.
@@Shikta-poobah67 I agree, its movie-like editing.
Shameless plug of a (my) band's cover at a houseparty

@@Shikta-poobah67there are execellent fan made vids of The Kid withe the Replaceable Head by Richard Hell, Mission of Burma's Academy Flight Song and a hilarious one for Half Japanese's Firecracker..
Oh what a song, what an album this was. Wire was incredibly original and inventive. Is it wrong to wish to wish they remain as obscure and underrated as I think they are, so I could be among the fewest who had access to their dimension.
I know what you mean. Pink Flag is one of the most enjoyable records ever.
Knobhead access that fur ah fckn dimension
You’d be surprised just how well known Wire actually is.
I read a review that said Pink Flag is like a series of miniature abstract paintings. I think that's a perfect description
00:07 is the face of exhaustion, self-hatred and misanthropy in it's purest form. I recognize it, unfortunately.
David Thewlis!
So many layers of meaning and interpretation to Naked. I really dig the footage you chose for the song!
I love how you chopped the movie up. Nice work and inspired me to learn the song
Great Song
Great song and excellent film
In 77 they were way ahead of the field. Noen pink my 45 of manaquin
Great song and my favourite movie!!
Love this movie 💟
Didn't know Professor Lupin enjoyed being in artsy movies when he's not barking at the moon
The character actually howls at the moon in this movie lmao
a man of many faces he is
If you haven’t seen Gangster No 1 you haven’t lived. Not this film but an excellent film with this excellent actor who made a bad choice being in a shit kids movie…
@@laravelisbullschitt3281 “shit kid’s movie” or not, his participation in the Harry Potter franchise hardly defines his (very illustrious) career, so I really don’t get how it was a “bad choice”. It opened a lot of doors for him actually. There are several other very respectable actors who were in various roles in the Potter movies, and it didn’t limit or define their careers either.
I saw that movie thanks to you :)
🎉🎉🎉
banging tune that
Love this song, love this movie
I love this film sfm!!
b o u r g e o i s e
Awesome
this and 'outdoor miner' are my favs

Thank you.

This hurts
Naked won Cannes that year. Mike Lee was great his composite Thewlis character was very common back then in 1994. The leftovers of the dire 80s looking to grift anything but mostly getting nothing.
Vaya... Que ya a pasado tanto tiempo
