The fact you searched for this song and scrolled through the comments..... Makes you cooler than you think you are !! 😍
Lol thanks very much you must be very cool too much respect great track
Why??
I just love this song/band.
Brings back sweet memories of my youth. (Can I go back pls? I don't like the world of today)
So, I've listened twice, read comments, am I cool now? Really? Hooray.
Lol, I'm joking.
Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱.
We were and still are ❤
Lol
Thanks😂😂😊
A long, long time ago I had a production company called Green Back Films and I directed this promo. The B&W picture the hero holds up is actually my mother!
Do you know the name of the guy in the Hawaiian shirt by any chance?
Wow, cool story man.
I don't like your story bro....I LOVE IT!
wikid :0)
Cool man :)
Attented a 10cc concert in Belgium last night, still as awesome!
Great video before MTV Roy Ferguson
If disco and reggae had a baby...
Pure magic music.Doesnt get any better than 10 cc.
That's my dad with the dreadlocks aired live on bbc top of the pops..70's
Wow!! Cool legacy!! ❤️
Great. Love this.
That's awesome brother
What a legend
I remember seeing this video and thinking those guys didn't look scary. Just looked like random locals told to look a bit mean.
How legendary this song from a band who's music was so different ! A true classic !!!
this song is totally and utterly masterpiece
Wholeheartedly Agree 💯
Agree
Twice a week
Agreed
Great song !!! 10cc will have a participation in Germany at music festival at 20 jun 2024.
Still listening January 2024😊
10cc’s last ever hit. Fine group from the 70s.
I love being a 70s child!
I wasn't a 70s child. I was older. But stil love this song.❤❤❤
Just a kid when this song came out, but I never stopped loving it and I’m in my fifties now. Catchy melody, incredible harmonies and sing-a-long vocals with masterful musicianship - it had it all.
Same 😎
This song will never age and still sounds as good today!
Boss tune
Classic i love it
Ground sound
Amen, brother or sister... whoever... tomorrow never knows anyway... Cheers !
Hell yes boss
My ears were sooo accustomed to the "I don't like cricket" version it's only now I realised it's actually "I don't like reggae, I love it" after listening to it for over 100 times 😂
It's actually both.
Possibly the most under rated band of all time
Ah stop will ya.
This song takes me back to my night clubbing days of the early '80's in Zimbabwe. There was a local band, 'Heritage', that used to play this at a night club in called Odettes. I knew the guys in the band and we'd sit listening to the music till the early hours. Good memories!
"concentrating on truckin right". Every single man who's been abroad for holiday can relate to that.
Loved it in '78.
Love it in '22. 🌞♥️
Ball's
Legend can watching in 2024❤❤❤
You will never hear anything else again
I don't like this song... I love it!
you are to main stream,did your TV broke down sir?
I see what you did there!
err!
I don't dislike cricket, I just think it's a tedious croc of s**t.
Ja też , pozdrawiam, ale teraz taki teledysk by nie przeszedł...rasizm....:)
I remember this song was number 1 here in New Zealand for the summer of 1978 ' it was a particularly hot summer and this song went perfectly with it.
Is this the country that trumps transgenders rights over women's rights? Seriously asking
Totally agree with you my kiwi mate .
@@bobbiesnodgrass4380 That's what I recall anyway, Dunedin 1978 , yes Dunedin hot , unusual. 🙂
The year the road melted at Ohope Beach. I remember getting a Hokey Pokey Icream and before we had for back to the car the whole thing was melted. In the shade at the motorcamp it was 41.5 C.

Are you listening in 2023?.....Of course i am!

10cc were a brilliant band. And very clever with their song writing. Anyone that knows their songs will know just how all their songs tell a story. Brilliant. 👍
This is their best.
Went to see Graham and the band last night. Absolutely superb. Small venue and they smashed it. To your point about the story telling... see Neanderthal Man as Exhibit A !!!
I agree, but I wonder what happened in this story. Did the narrator make it out of those encounters fairly in tact? For the "I don't like I love it", was that the narrator's thoughts or was that him talking the others down? True, it seems he physically made it out, as he got to the pool in the end. But then... I wonder what happened at the end of the last verse, if he did, indeed, try that harvest. It's interesting how this song seems to describe the danger of the place, I don't quite understand the choruses.
@@jukesy1992 it's him trying to say something that'll please the Jamaican he's talking to. "I don't just like it...I LOVE it!"
@@jukesy1992 I think you're overthinking this one mate, it's entertainment no more no less. Possibly very loosely based on real life experience!
The woman is drop dead gorgeous
To this Day.
2022 still don't like the song..I love it ya!
the original white boy summer
The last and likely only time I saw this video was in early 1979. Being a teenager in the late 1970s early 80s was musically diverse and rewarding. 43 years later this song is still amazing. Thank you for posting 10cc.
Ha! Share copypaste!
Chrs
I really like this song...
The words to this song are so true 😍
Looking at the world now I reckon we were lucky to have been born when we were.
@@jantjepietje5806j'en ai rien à...
I'm a 65 year old American veteran, I just vaguely remembered hearing this song ages ago. My father was in the USAF and we had been living in Puerto Rico which happened to be where my mother was from. She came down with cancer in 1977 and we returned to the States the next year. After seven years living in Puerto Rico I had missed. most of the music and big cultural events of a whole decade...1971 to 1978. I had been able to hear a handful of the bigger hits over that time but there was a whole lot of music I simply had never heard of or the bands and singers that had slipped past me...this happened to be one of them. I caught it once or twice on an oldies channel during the 80s and 90s. Interestingly I had joined the army in 1981 and after basic training I was stationed in fort Sill Oklahoma. I was lucky enough to catch the first day of MTV, not long after that I saw this video. It would be years again before I saw it again on RUclips. It's one of those odd tunes that just sort of sticks with you, not a great song but humorous enough to never quite be forgotten.
Как же хочется на Ямайку, отдыхать на пляже и пить коктейли под эту песню, а не вот это вот все...
Или хотя бы "Большой куш" пересмотреть)
This Song Stood the Test of Time. It sounds better than back in 1978.
It stands out more now as most of today's music is senseless shite with no soul
@@stephenrobinson8581 truer words never have been spoken better before.
Heheh, Test. Because, cricket... test match... I'll let myself out.
Ha, ha!
Paris. 2023.
❤ Jacek.
I love how they refer Jamaica to 'her'. Its the small things that make a beautiful song!
If Men At Work and Australia has their "Down Under", England has its 10CC with this song. Britain is Rock ❤
I found this in Watch Dogs 2 years ago and am now watching the music video for the first time. Timeless classic tunes.
Das ist ein Ohrwurm, den man nie mehr los wird. Selbst wenn man das Lied nicht mehr hören kann, es läuft immer und immer wieder automatisch im Kopf..
This band had such range. They could play it all.
This is the official anthem of cricket
The music video for the song was directed by Storm Thorgerson.[8] The beach scene in the official video was filmed on the Dorset coast near Charmouth. Golden Cap, the iconic hill and cliff of this region known as the "Jurassic Coast", is visible for a few seconds in the video.
Yeah I know, hilarious...seeing the stones, the dull arse English sky and those cliffs...I don’t know how they thought they could convince people it was Jamaica 🤣 The pool scene was probably some resort nearby...slightly more passable. When he’s strutting at the beginning, they did a better job of making it look tropical but again it was probably somewhere down in Dorset . If they’d actually gone to Jamaica or the West Indies, they’d have single-handedly kicked off the MTV explosion...
Sweet info
Bad to the bone, ain't you Tyrone?
He's done a Rally Driving course, in't you Tyrone?
the walk in the begining is priceless.........LOL
"Course I ave"
'Dont let that dog dribble on my seats, ALRIGHT?!'
44 years later and this song just magically popped into my head. I love it, yeah 👍
It popped into mine 3 days ago...❤
I'm old enough to remember this track when it was new. This is the first time I saw the video. I'm guessing there wasn't enough of a video budget to actually go to Jamaica.
I was walkin' down the street
Concentratin' on truckin' right
I heard a dark voice beside of me
And I looked round in a state of fright
I saw four faces, one mad
A brother from the gutter
They looked me up and down a bit
And turned to each other
I say
I don't like cricket (Oh no!)
I love it
I don't like cricket (No no!)
I love it
Don't you walk through my words
You got to show some respect
Don't you walk through my words
'Cause you ain't heard me out yet
Well he looked down at my silver chain
He said "I'll give you one dollar"
I said you've got to be jokin' man
It was a present from me mother
He said "I like it, I want it
I'll take it off your hands
And you'll be sorry you crossed me
You'd better understand that you're alone
A long way from home
And I say
I don't like reggae (No no!)
I love it (Eh!)
I don't like reggae (No!)
I love it (Eh!)
Don't you cramp me style
Don't you queer me pitch
Don't you walk through my words
'Cause you ain't heard me out yet
I hurried back to the swimming pool
Sinkin' pina colada
I heard a dark voice beside me say
"Would you like something harder?"
She said, "I've got it, you want it
My harvest is the best
And if you try it, you'll like it
And wallow in a Dreadlock Holiday"
And I say
Don't like Jamaica (Oh no!)
I love her (Eh!)
Don't like Jamaica (Oh no!)
I love her (Oh yeah!)
Don't you walk through her words
You got to show some respect
Don't you walk through her words
'Cause you ain't heard her out yet
I don't like cricket (Oh no!)
I love it (Dreadlock Holiday)
I don't like reggae (Oh no!)
I love it (Dreadlock Holiday)
Don't like Jamaica (Eh!)
I love her (Dreadlock Holiday)
Thanks 😊
Cricket , seagulls, summer, regae and this song pure enjoyment
The very definition of *heaven*
😁🏏
Trippy 🍸
This terrific band never got the recognition they deserved, Eric Stewart always looks so happy like he can’t believe he’s doing this for a living 😎
? Well, they were widely recognized way back in the seventies of the previous century... Maybe you are of a younger generation?
@@jannyhilverts6412 They were a great band, but sadly not legendary status. Like even my generation (post 90s) would instantly know The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Queen, etc. But it's really hard I suppose to make hit after hit.
@@bassinblue they're legendary in Guam . The Guammies
Well, they’re legendary in musical circles. People who know, know.
Skullkid brought me here.
R.I.P. Flash games.
Haha that shooting game right
I too love reggae and cricket.
This song is timeless. I go to school when I hear this song the first time. Where is time go🤔? Now I am 57 years old., 😊
U just cant fathom where the time has gone, i was 11 or 12 when this came out and even at that young age, i thought what a cool tune and in 2021 still sounds terrific.
My mother is your age haha Turing 59 next year.
Lola...this July 4th I turn 60 so I am guessing we are close in age and I couldn't agree with you more...God Bless and Peace!
I love that while on vacation he carries a picture of his mom... what a good lad ..🤗
I know this band since 1980, I, m 54 old now and I still listen, fantastic music.. Bands from 80,s, Alan Parsons, camel, Ambrosia, Steely Dan,
. I loveeeeee. Greetings from Spain.
This whole song is a Yacht Rock, reggae VIBE!
We will never get music this good again.
wish I was 18 years old again, dancing pissed out of my head in local nightclub to this track way back in 1978
Just getting pissed at a pub would be nice
Me too!!
Ha ha I was 19 years old, danced the nights away in BONN Germany.
Same age as me, yes brilliant time's
Me too!
Grateful of RADIO VALENTIN LETELIER ( Valparaiso 🇨🇱 ) where i heard this amazin song 4 1st time in my life this 2024💎🔥🔥🔥👌🎉🎉🎉
Fantastic video - could not be done now
That chorus bassline is the bread and butter line of all house music. Legendary.
I didn't realise at first. Interesting.
This song will forever be in my head till I travel over to the next place
10cc and reggy rocks. I'm so glad I grew up when I did.
first reggy song I heard, then came Bob M. this is a classic, I´m 61 yo.
I was a teenager when this was released and TODAY I found out the name of the song. ❤
The best happy-go-lucky song of all time. LIfts the spirit. High vibrations.
❤
one of the best things about 60 years old,is the fact that i lived my teenage years in the 70's that is priceless and i am grateful !!!
I LOVE his strut at the beginning. So smooth :)
This probably wouldn’t even get produced now & if it did, they’d be ‘cancelled’ 😢
So glad I grew up in the 70’s & 80’s when music was not only original, but generally uncensored 👍🏻
Yeah, that's the problem. It's based on a real incident.
Shout out to Skull Kid for introducing many to this masterpiece.
On of the greatest songs of all time as a 17 year old I'm glad my dad raised me right with music
Yessir👊💥
Same but i'm 14
music from the decade before music became a guy with a synthesiser...The 10cc, and Supertramp...
Same but I’m 15 lol I was addicted to this song at 11 tho
Still listening 24:7
That Barbados beach looks lovely 😍😅😂
This is my dad’s favourite song
I don’t like cricket, I LOVE IT.
Double entendre...."Would you like something harder?" Lol😏 Great song. Great feel. Impossible not to groove to it even all these years later.
Her harvest is the best... she's selling ganga, no double entendre!
@@stephengrimmer35 Aware of that...but she happens to be an attractive female so I'll stick with double entendre. ( check the body language).
I guess only 10cc know for sure but going by some of their other songwriting they appear to enjoy double meanings.
In all of my 51 years I've never heard this song but I luv it! 😂😂😂
Just discovered it on SiriusXM Yacht Rock a couple weeks ago, and I'm 54!
70’s at it’s best 😊
All this song does is frighten me away from Jamaica LOL
yeah the whole point of the song is that black people are scary.
This is one of the best songs ever made ever!!! I remember I had the 10cc and Godley and Creme "Changing Faces" video cassette tape with "Good Morning Judge" "Englishman in New York" "Dreadlock Holiday" "Wedding Bells" "Feel the Love" "I'm Mandy, Fly Me" "I'm not in Love" "Golden Boy" and more and it was the best thing EVER!!!!! (and I'm a young man btw)
10CC is one of the most amazing musical sounds and styles ever!
"a long way from home"
*shows typical UK beach* lol
Awesome song!
As fresh now in 2024 as when it was first written!
To the tourists watching this: Saying you love Cricket, Reggae or Jamaica will not prevent you from getting robbed.
Hay white boi.... gimme ya pud pud
But one day at school a year or two before this came out,someone wrote "CHELSEA FANS ARE A BUNCH OF PUFFS" in great big letters on one of the paths so the Chelsea supporters there were going round in a gang stopping everyone and asking them how they spelt poof,wrong answer and they got beaten up. Naturally,I said "P O O F".
Thats the point !
Great advice from the jamican tourist board. Come to Jamaica enjoy the sun, sea and the relaxed lifestyle. By the way you WILL be robbed. No thanks then
Robbed and badly beaten or killed.
Absolutely timeless... it's before "my time" and I still "love it!"
same... its class, Sooo feckin good
OMG, thank u for uploading this! At 16yo I looooooved this song, haven’t heard for a very long tome. Only came looking for it cuz I saw it mentioned on an old ‘Coronation Street’ episode. I love shit that throws me back to an easier time - thanks again!
This was the first record i ever bought (september 1978), brilliant song.
Same! I still have the 7-inch vinyl now.
All the dislikes were from people who LOVE the song!
One of the best comments I read on RUclips 😂
I don't dislike it, I like it !
Genius!
if only we could still see how many disliked it
From people who've been robbed while on vacation.
Things like this make me happy to be alive...they also make me miss a different time that I wasnt around for.
I totally agree that I love Reggae too 🙌👌
Praise be ... but this isnt reggae 🙌
I didn’t say that it was , just said that I love Reggae music . Blessings to you from me 🇮🇪🙌
Today was a real gift. This is the first time I've saw this video, have always loved this song. It's one song I don't mind getting stuck in my head.
One of the greatest pop bands of all time
DEFINITELY.
Of all great American Bands:
To me - they are the most intricate and subtle in weaving sounds & lyrics !!!
@@alfredrutz7830 10cc are from Manchester, England, not America. But yes, they're great!
@MickyMadHatter
Thanks 10cc mate
Now that explains, why of all bands I associated with NY/US, no other had that distinctive, intricate, subtle British vibe - yep, because they were a British Band !!!
"And that's why I don't like cricket." - Bob Fossil.
And that's why I can't go for that
🤣🤣 who doesn’t love Bob Fossil
I was looking for this comment
Pocket cup!
This is a song... I like cricket and cricket is in our DNA.. cheers mate from NZ👍🇳🇿
The 70's in the West Indies was exactly like this and so much more! So lucky to have been alive and there then.
Thank you for the song. ☀️
You know it's a legendary holiday when you come home and write a song about it.
10CC were such a massively talented band...they made fantastic music effortlessly
A simple, yet great tribute to Jamaica, Reggae, and Cricket. Such a diverse sounding band, too. From Rubber Bullets, to I'm Not in Love, to this, they weren't afraid to draw outside of the lines and do what they wanted, instead of being pigeonholed.
How do I not remember this song?! I was listening to "I'm not in Love" and this song followed. I don't remember it all...but I love it.
Best cricket song ever!!
Ham
yah mon!
10cc would have to be 1 of the most eclectic bands,pop,rock,reggae
Everything
Any song that says I don't like cricket no I love it gets me !!!
10CC, FLEETWOOD MAC, SUPERTRAMP and QUEEN. The stuff I grew up with. Think my parents liked some good stuff!
