I absolutely adore this song. The rhythms are so great, my parents had this CD and played it in the car when I was a kid and now as an adult I still both love the song and feel nostalgic towards it.
17 May 2019. Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as the Elastica and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you from Sicily. And love, admiration and adoration.
FUNNIEST END EVER. These Sound Effects are a Classic from TV Series Donna shouting in Japanese is a crack-up... Another Masterpiece I Downloaded and Recorded in my DVD Colllection
costumes were provided by designer anna sui back when she was still pretty good. i still remember when they accompanied her show for that MTV special "fashionably loud" in 96. those were the days....this album was my soundtrack for the vast majority of those two years.

[Verse 1] You could call me a car lover 'Cause I love it in a motor And the way it feels To ride around on new wheels I hardly know you But I think I'm going to Let's go siesta In your Ford Fiesta [Chorus] Here we go again I'm riding in your car Let me count to ten 'Cause it's gone way too far Up my street to nowhere You know what detours are Here we go again And it's gone way too far [Verse 2] Sometimes I just can't function My heart's spaghetti junction Every shining bonnet Makes me think of my back on it I just can't escape the feeling That I'd rather be free-wheeling In every little Honda There may lurk a Peter Fonda [Chorus] Here we go again I'm riding in your car Let me count to ten 'Cause it's gone way too far Up my street to nowhere You know what detours are Here we go again And it's gone way too far
Damon Albarn song to Justine (Blue Jeans): I love living with you, the repetition of this commom life together is amazing, and I'll love you forever Justine song to Damon Albarn: Let's fuck on the car, mate
12 abril 2023 y es la primera vez que veo este video. Y eso que el disco de Elastica lo tengo quemado desde hace mas de 20 años sin parar de escucharlo. eh..... amo este video hasta sus ultimas consecuencias!! lo tiene absolutamente todo!!!! muerdo de amor! nunca mas se hara un video con estos efectos especiales (ni con un grupo como Elastica evidentemente, porque nadie estara nunca a la altura)
I doubt it, there isn't enough good extra material. It'd be curios for die-hard fans only and you can already find some of them on RUclips (Unheard Music, etc)

What the fuck does this video have to do with a chicks sensual attraction to cars? I love this song, this band never got all the exposure and credit it deserved.
I would say there's no doubt the BLUR harmonies influence here.. did Damon Albarn something to do with some part of this song? you bet he show some chromatic descendent chords to Justine maybe watching TV on Sunday.. it´s definitely Blur chords progression (Stereotypes.. and others), just saying! I love this song and Elastica´s live sound as well..
this is the 2nd time im seeing this video. the first time was when it came out during the days of batman forever and ps1. i instantly fell in love with justine frichman ( i most likely spelled her name wrong.). shes so hot!!
I cant get over this
-the outfits
-the setting
-the feeling
-the sound
-the everything
the 60's were in in the 90s
Reminds me of Taipei city
Very clever / I like your shirt / how do I talk you out of it
thls ls not 60s lnsplre at all.....they are late 70s/early 80s vibes mlxed wlth that 90s unlqueness....@@magoddess
This whole album CRUSHED!
I wore that CD out.
@@mloftin6472 Loved it. Still play it.
A 90s classic!!!!!!
"In every little Honda, there may lurk a Peter Fonda - ooh!" 😂 Very funny, Justine.
Now that’s what I call British Humor. Amirite???
I couldn't define it, but it probably involves innuendo or a sense of ridiculousness/ absurdity. Preferably mixed up together.
I absolutely adore this song. The rhythms are so great, my parents had this CD and played it in the car when I was a kid and now as an adult I still both love the song and feel nostalgic towards it.
We’re saved! Thank you, Elastica!
"She's a 20th century girl, with her hands on the wheel"
OMG I NEVER THOUGHT OF THIS
Oh yeah....
Yep, her boyfriend at the time Damon Albarn probably wrote this for her and he gave her the credit. It has Blur written all over it.
@@danee9647 That's so gross.
@@danee9647 I doubt that's what actually happened... but it does sound a bit like Stereotypes, which came out the same year.

Grande Band 😁
This still feels current and contemporary.
"Every shining bonnet, makes me think of my back on it"..wow what a line(for those uninitiated in Brit-speak, the bonnet is the hood of the car)
It cracks me up every single time I hear it.
I thought Bonnet was a type of car... well.. the picture in mymind was the same anyway 🤣
FUNNIEST END EVER.
These Sound Effects are a Classic from TV Series
Donna shouting in Japanese is a crack-up...

In South Africa we call it the bonnet too 😊
That bassline... :-D
Yet the bassist is absent from the video... :(
@@elgiacomo why

Love the song, love the Citroen CX!
It's a Citroen BX
That CX
Ma che bella canzone!!! La sto scoprendo bene solo oggi!!❤❤
The video is great, and much more family-friendly than the lyrical imagery here ...
🤔 As if Elastica ever intentionally set out to be "family friendly"... maybe friendly for creating families.😂
God I loved that late 90's, 60's-space thing that happened so briefly.
LOVE THIS BAND.
I love Braitan so much ❤ I love most of their whole album this is on.
I never realized how many videos Elastica had back in the day. All good too.
My mtv days were pretty much over by 1990 tho. Lol

Loved Elastica for years how have I never seen this video?!
I haven’t heard this song for over 25 years and I feel it still ❤
This is actually a really funny video! 🤣
This is so good omg

So we're all meant to be impressed that you have been to Japan? Fair enough
I like this group, them, great stuff
[Verse 1]
You could call me a car lover
'Cause I love it in a motor
And the way it feels
To ride around on new wheels
I hardly know you
But I think I'm going to
Let's go siesta
In your Ford Fiesta
[Chorus]
Here we go again
I'm riding in your car
Let me count to ten
'Cause it's gone way too far
Up my street to nowhere
You know what detours are
Here we go again
And it's gone way too far
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I just can't function
My heart's spaghetti junction
Every shining bonnet
Makes me think of my back on it
I just can't escape the feeling
That I'd rather be free-wheeling
In every little Honda
There may lurk a Peter Fonda
[Chorus]
Here we go again
I'm riding in your car
Let me count to ten
'Cause it's gone way too far
Up my street to nowhere
You know what detours are
Here we go again
And it's gone way too far
Bit disappointing to read it's free-wheeling not three-wheeling, though the next rhyming couplet never made sense being about Honda not Reliant.
great song and video.......also, i like the car...and costumes/clothes........tokyo?........4.5.2016
Citroen CX. Great car.
This slowly became one of my favorite songs ever. I always go back to it. What a feeling
Damon Albarn song to Justine (Blue Jeans):
I love living with you, the repetition of this commom life together is amazing, and I'll love you forever
Justine song to Damon Albarn:
Let's fuck on the car, mate
This is the best comment here
Great video and song Elastica!
every shining bonnet makes me think of my back on it!! lol amazeballs lyrics
that outro, top tier music video outro
Those "guns" were really old car-phone antennae long before the video was made. Dumpster diving for the win!
such an awesome song
Ghostbusters - Tokyo Drift
Que Quotion Omg I just died laughing
Wasn’t there an anime about this?
Driving a Delorean
No its godzilla-ultraman-tokyo drift
no mams! esta genial!!! nunca lo habia visto...
This car can drive me back to the 90s.
Wow, can't believe I hadn't seen this until now 😎😁
i haven’t seen this video in ages! thanks youtube algorithm!
I have had this album for 25+ years and have never seen this video
Forgot all about this song. 🎉

Dont remember hearing this song before, but video freakin rocks. Japan is the best.
５年以上探して、今日やっと見つけた。うれし！！！！！！！
I wonder if this album will get re released as a 2 disc? 1 of the best debut albums ever.
Me too! *checks available retail outlets* lol.
I doubt it, there isn't enough good extra material. It'd be curios for die-hard fans only and you can already find some of them on RUclips (Unheard Music, etc)
Song rules.
@zoist80
what a lovely image!
Probably the best cigarette I have smoked in 40 years 😂🎉
Who you're gonna call? Ghostbusters? - No, Elastica!
justine, we should carpool sometime
With that sangwoo pic that sounds a tad creepy.
I like when I'm high enough for this to make sense. I love Elastica.
Too good!
every shining bonnet...
think of my back on it
2021 still listening
安心感あるB級映画感ほんとすこ
Elastica predicted the game Ghostwire Tokyo
Didn't even realise this was Spike Jonze.....
de mis épocas postpunk
Nice views in Shinjuku, Tokyo.
Bring back memories of Brit pop .
The Ultimate Truth is Existence.
Existence is the Understanding.
Understanding is Love.

I remember when the album came out and loved them since. It’s funny to see them running around Shibuya as I live in Japan now.
Still can’t believe Elastica made this in Japan, honorable!
dig this
Has anyone asked, or knows, why the fourth member didn't appear in this music video??
@Buzz01832 It's a 1977 Rover 2300.
🇧🇷🇺🇸 hello ⚽️⚽️⚽️🤾♂️🤾♂️🤾♂️🎸🎤🎵
❤❤❤
Always had a lesbian crush on Justine!!! Hottest girl the indie scene ever!!!
Me too, and I'm a guy!
Check out Cacie Dalager from Now, Now.
Donna mattews looks beautiful as blonde
Yes indeed
It's a shame she found God 😅
@@MattyStarfish how big of a zealot has she become dare I ask???
@@johnIZaUWL not sure, what I heard was that she would never play this music again as it goes against her beliefs.
@@MattyStarfish it’s not exactly death metal she was playing though lol
hahaha high school memories
Justine is a Top
この撮影楽しそう
What the fuck does this video have to do with a chicks sensual attraction to cars? I love this song, this band never got all the exposure and credit it deserved.
@mickmars51
No, she had left the band by then (she did return a few years later). I dunno about her in a red jumpsuit though...
I absolutely love this band and CD, ITS Soo GOOD 😅😅
@sifakid I am pretty sure this was filmed in Osaka.
Very underrated man its a shame
cool!
im glad i discovered this song through gilmore girls, its in the episode where rory and jess get icecream and he drives her car
Came from gilmore girls🖤💓✨️ sick song!
@zoist80 no they are from a game called photon but it was the poor kids lazzer tag
why did elastica take your stuff off of Spotify??
They haven’t though, or maybe they have put the songs back on. I haven’t saw anything different
what the hell is that oooooOOO-OOOooooo oooooOOO-OOOooooo that plays every 20-30 seconds? that thing hooked me, i absolutely love it
They drive a Rover... But an amazing song, that's for sure!
I would say there's no doubt the BLUR harmonies influence here.. did Damon Albarn something to do with some part of this song? you bet he show some chromatic descendent chords to Justine maybe watching TV on Sunday.. it´s definitely Blur chords progression (Stereotypes.. and others), just saying! I love this song and Elastica´s live sound as well..
..and there's only room for 2 in a Porsche ... maybe three😄🎶
Shouldn't the steering wheel be on the right hand side? They drive on the opposite side as Americans! (Like the British.) Great song Donna!
It was in Japan.
This was so ahead of its time that you could put it in a sci-fi flick today, and it would be cutting edge.
Your steering wheel is on the wrong side love
Damn never seen Justine in a skirt!!
90s chick's. Yes please!!!
@bronko0824 No actually they are laser tag helmets but thanks.
Their best video!
this is the 2nd time im seeing this video. the first time was when it came out during the days of batman forever and ps1. i instantly fell in love with justine frichman ( i most likely spelled her name wrong.). shes so hot!!
i left my heart in tokyo
better Ghostbusters remake than the one we got from hollywood
🤘🏻😎🎸 🥃
pure Blur
That's...around Shinjuku station.
