    The video was carefully choreographed and filmed in front of an unsuspecting crowd with the intention of illiciting the exact reaction you had to it! WTF!
    Fatboy Slim is a DJ called Norman Cook. He started off as part of a band called The Housemartins which was a very different kind of a sound so you might be interested in checking that out for the contrast! Their biggest hit was Happy Hour.
    He then went on to work with other artists and I'd recommend that you check out the Norman Cook remix of Cornershop Brim Full Of Asher.
    He truly found his feet when he invented himself as Fatboy Slim. I'd recommend Weapon Of Choice, Right Here Right Now or Funk Soul Brother for a future reaction. He also did a track with an artist called Macy Gray who you really must check out because she probably has the most unique voice you will ever feature! It's called Demons.

      lol Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim) had nothing to do with the making of this music video. This was Spike Jonze's creation. He directed it and played the starring role as the dorky dance troop leader. He also made many other famous music videos: Fatboy Slim: "Weapon of Choice" (with iconic actor Christopher Walken dancing and flying)... Beastie Boys "Sabotage" (like a 1970's tv cop show)... Weezer "Buddy Holly" (like an Episode of "Happy Days")... Daft Punk "Da Funk"... Bjork "It's Oh So Quiet"... Notorious B.I.G. "Sky's the Limit"... The Pharcyde "Drop" (the whole video is reversed)... Breeders "Cannonball"... Chemical Brothers "Electrobank"... Weezer "Undone"...

Although the youngest, my brother was for his age one of the best players there. Another kid a year older than him performed this as part of a goal celebration once when he scored, inserting his nickname in to the 'celebrate you...' line of the song. Obviously pretty hilarious at the time, it was repeated a few times over the following weeks, but eventually forgotten about until now 😂

Cook also had a band called Beats International. They had a big hit with the number Dub Be Good to Me. A remake of the SOS Band's Just Be Good to Me and containing a bass sample from The Clash's Guns of Brixton. Norman Cook on bass like in Housemartins. The latter had a big hit with Happy Hour and the beautiful acapella number Caravan of Love

    Only the best clip ever. When it plays@ my local pub e'body stops & does the dance. To newcomers looks like a full on flashmob then we all go back to our seats & conversations like nothing happened. In Oz here.

    Some fun facts. Punk director Spike Jones came up with this. Classic movie star Mickey Rooney's son choreographed this dance, he was one of the dancers too. He wanted it to look weird and amaturish. This was filmed live at a theater, no warning to the crowd, The guy from FatBoy Slim was standing in the crowd there, with his wife, you can see them on the side.

    Ya Mama, oh yes he did! There is a plethora of similar artist like Fatboy Slim, Chemical Brothers (UK), Faithless, Basement Jaxx, Underworld, to name but a few and proving that it is possible for dance acts to produce a classic listenable album.

    Spike Jonze video. He's the dancer with the striped t-shirt. He also played in the movie Three Kings with George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg and Ice Cube. He directed Being John Malkovich. He has also made a lot of music videos. Beastie Boys - Sabotage, Fat Boy Slim - Weapon of Choice feat Christopher Walken doing an incredible dance through a hotel and Weezer - Buddy Holly. Just to mention a few

    Love this song, I think I requested this the other day! Check out the studio version some time, the video is great but I don’t like the part where the guy comes and shuts it off, when he restarted it I think there’s a big chunk of the song cut out

    -Wow … Fatboy, and you wanna hear that new Fatboy song?
    -Absolutely!
    -Which one?
    -The umm … it’s "funk soul brother, check it out!"
