I’m 70 years old and the first time I watched this video I thought it was an old country-western song from the late 1950s. However, the second time I concentrated on the words and holy smoke! I laughed until I cried! It is excellent musicianship, great parody of an old musical genre and also has amazing lyrics! Great job Lily and group!
lily allen is one of those singers where you know you listened to her songs a lot when you were a kid in the around 2000's and then find her songs randomly later and realise what you were listening to as a kid.
I remember this playing in the radio!!! 2009 is so long ago! I was to young back then and couldn’t understand English as well as today …so I only now got the meaning 😆😆😆
I think I'm becoming a die-hard fan of Lily Allen now that I'm rediscovering her as an adult. Savage and witty and awesome! I didn't know english quite well enough back in the day to appreciate her lyrics... She rocks!!
Yeah I'm fascinated by the insert into the real Porter Wagoner Show, and Porter's glittering costume! Ugly got a new meaning in that part of the 1970s...
Never too late, never too late. English is my third language, but I certainly remember this song from my childhood. Slightly embarrassing to only understand the lyrics years later on, particularly because the song was so iconic at the time that we used to sing it contiously in public as kids. I have no idea why no parents ever told us about the meaning of the lyrics, oof.
I love the witty way she prances around the microphone. I love the tone and feminine energy she brings that is not aggressive and youthful but actually quite reserved and truthful. Her music is classic and continues to stand the test of time.
I don't think witty is the correct adjective to describe her prancing. I'd offer seductive instead, but she keeps squatting like she needs to take a shit, so that's no good either. How about the rhythmic way she prances? Or the confident way she prances?
I like her 70’s vibe in this video it’s sad how underrated and unappreciated this song and Lily Allen is , but to me she will always be popular to me weather she’s not on the radio I think she’s amazing her and Mazzy
I'm 21 and just now realizing what this is about. Quite clever lyrics. I heard this song when I was much younger and my English was very poor. Glad to rediscover this edit: wtf never noticed this had so many likes! thanks!
I feel like the banjo player is the only one that knows how to make a girl scream. He’s the only one that’s nodding in agreement and dancing along! LOL
Or maybe he's happy about his seating arrangements, eh? Don't just assume stuff just because hes... s Dancing along? Like everyone else... in the video? He is sitting right behind Lily. I would be smiling too. In all seriousness though, they are ACTING.
Say what you like about Lily, she's a treasure. Her witty lyrics, the way she plays with her personality, and she's not afraid to jab at herself, plus she can actually sing. I love rock music, but I own Alright Still and It's Not Me, It's You on CD. They're brilliant albums. I've not really got round to exploring her other albums (I will) but I think it might be hard to top those first two. I listen to them all the time.
id say sheezus is a caricature of her first 2 albums and the 4th album which i forgot the name is very introsoective and different from her witty ironic signature but maybe more mature
I am not native speaker and I was quite young when this song came out so I did not understand the lyrics at that time, But I am fluent speaker now and, oh boy, I missed a lot of clues (in a lot of other songs from 2000’ too) :D. I went trought to her older songs once more and I realized that she is really funny and clever with her lyrics. I like her even more. (She was my favourite singer at my teen years)
Especially because the guy at the beginning IS porter wagoner, who made dolly a star by having her on his show before she went solo. He’s the guy I will always love you is about!
@@brandonayong5823 her comeback album (the one that isnt sheezus lol) is spectacular and emotionally charged. And its not me its you is pop history. People need to give her her flowers
Love the way the chorus girls are giving it their all and kicking it. They know what this is about. This clip is a wonder of the second degree. When you see it, you can't unsee it. Great irony.
???? Wtf are you talking about??? They're doing their job. There is no hidden message with the chorus girls. They are there to dance and look good doing it. That's all.
@@I_am_a_cat_ i think the person meant that the acting in this music video are meant to show some comedic and irony message towards the song lyrics by showing those who understands, and how some of the men are literally like the lyrics where they are boring while the dancers are women who correlate most with the song lyrics
I like the bit at 3:07 when she sings "it's apparent it's all over" and the background dancers make their straight pointing fingers fall like a deflating Willy.
Yeah I love it, so suggestive of what the "real" problem is :-) This vid is really a take up of those trashy american country and western shows from the 1970's... That's why the drummers etc were all looking so bored, they were doing that stuff every afternoon and evening, week in, week out. Lily is one of the most perceptive singers of our generation, every word she says in her lyrics have a meaning in today's society, and she loves taking the p*ss!!
I think the guitar player is looking at her like he wouldn't disappoint her lol. I know I wouldn't wew lad Lily was looking so good at the time of this video
for a while i've thought lily is singing about the guy on the guitar, and that's why he has that look on his face the whole song, and the guy on the banjo is laughing at him
When I was a kid I watched this MV. At first I thought the male band was bored with their job as a musician but now when I watching it again I was like “ohhh no wonder they’re make that reaction”. 🌚
I was just listening to Kathy Burke's podcast with Lily Allen as a guest and she says she bought the outfit for this video herself at a market for £7. You're bang on that sometimes the simplest videos with the smallest budgets can still be so good
I often revisit this one. Now while being an amateur photographer i would like us all to appreciate camera crew who chose corniest lenses, with soft image, cheap vingette and lots of chromatic abberation. This not only resembles 1970s videos but also makes Lily's contrasting cloth glow.
thedukeultimate lol, i`m probably a loooot older than you but in the early 80`s something like that use to happen to me with a song called ·Rock The Boat", i loved it but only when i grew up i knew what it really meant
Graham Sherlock You understand wrong, then. She claims the right to be happy in bed for all women and it is obvious that most "men" only care about their own pleasure.
Michael Merritt - True, but what she says, happens to many women. If a woman cheats by saying she felt orgasm: What should we read about it? There is the crux of the matter. The man, in that case, must be well in his senses and spirit, and out of love for her, understand her and give her what every woman deserves in her privacy. I wonder: How a man would not like to feel his wife happy and for his own cause and care? Saludos, amigo.
It depends... When I was 29 I had a girlfriend who just wanted sex all the time, and when we did it, I could last for 2 hours. She then would be so exhausted that sometimes I would go to sleep without 'finishing'. I had been an alcoholic because girls would always reject me. I was so lucky to find that girl, cause otherwise I would by now be dead by cirrhosis or drunk-driven car crush. Now I'm 50 and can have sex for an entire afternoon from 17:00 to 22:00 with the necessary stops and visits to the WC. I tell you: this song doesn't make me feel uncomfortable about my sexuality at all, it just makes me sad that you girls make bad choices and choose the 'bad guy' that looks awesome and is so self-confident you can't resist him... and then it happens. He is a narcissistic guy.... and an egoist! Why don't you choose the nice guy?? He would respect you and REALLY care! ..and who knows? Maybe that weirdo is a sex machine after all ...how can you tell? Don't be so cheap in your tastes about boys and give those nice guys a try.
As a baby in comparison to this song. I love this and have got to know, only because this song was playing at our local grocery store, an I watched the whole store uplift in mood. Heard many many people singing along. Gave me a live and respect for this song and what it can do to people's mood. Respect!!!!! I showed my mum this song that heard at the store. Within seconds she say "Bob Dylan!! I can tell by the harmonicas!" 😫💕💕
I thought I'm the only one who likes this song! 9 years ago this was my favourite song although I didn't understand the lyrics, I just loved the music!
My dad actually thought this was a country song from the 60s, and he really loved it and i remember him saying "the music back then was much better than the crap you hear today".🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh I just thought she was an asshole who instead of talking problems through she writes songs about it LMAO Song is great though PS: nice Madoka magica pfp
How does it take guts for an attractive successful popstar to humiliate an ex boyfriend who clearly respected and cared for her but suffered from premature ejaculation? The poor guy didn't do it to be mean. If I got to have sex with Lily Allen in her prime I wouldn't have lasted too long the first time either probably.
So this was basically my jam when I was nine, I just remembered it and now I just listened to it again for the first time in 6 years and I still know every lyric. But now I understand them, why the hell did my family let me play this all the time...
Omg same, i first heard it on my 9th birthday at school and my best friend got me her new cd because i loved lily allen and my teacher said we could play it in class under the condition people do their work and we loved this song so we kept repeating it! Obviously we didn't know the meaning we just liked the song and our teacher was like "don't you want to play a different song" and we were like "no" but looking back, the teacher probably knew what it meant
+Medina Sod not you saying this after lily's latest shitty, trashy, unoriginal and uninspired album. beyoncé is better than her and the critics agree. bye hunties! stay pressed
+Josh Thakbal they may made it look like it's from 80's, but the lyrics are very much 'todays'. I don't think anyone would get away with lyrics like that even in the 80's
The 70's aesthetic is ridiculously spot-on - I actually double-checked the release date of the song, despite _knowing_ when it came out because I _remember_ it being new. Beyond it being really catchy, I'm kind of ambivalent towards the song... but I definitely admire the attention to detail in this video.
This song was released before Lily got married ! Iam no Taylor Swift's fan at all but gotta admit : she is so right ! Some men , most of the men even can be so dumb , not mature , selfish and Big Talkers treat women like dirt after getting what they wanted.
Honestly. This used to be banging on every radio and then suddenly... disappeared. Ever since then I haven't met this song again until now. It's like meeting a friend from primary school again, and finding you're both in a good place
everything about this music video is hilarious..the drummer's facial expression, the guitar player's confused look, and there's the banjo player who did a crab metal kinda pose..lol
I USED TO LISTEN TO THIS AS A SMALL 8 YEAR OLD AND I KNEW ALL THE WORDS AND WENT AROUND SINGING THEM BUT I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THEY MEANT AND I ONLY CAME BACK TO LISTEN TO IT NOW AND IM SCREAMING OHMYGODNOsOTHISISWHYEVERYONEWASSCAREDOFME
Learn to eat some punani bro. I mean I'm a lesbian so I don't have the struggle of egoistic males not getting me off because I have the privilege of good sex. But it's just a lil inspo for you to satisfy some women so you don't have to be the reason why a song like this exists 🙄😂
@Danfosky this song is about the singers boyfriend being good in all aspects but sex and not caring to learn how to please her. kinda inappropriate for a kid to sing lol
@@keelanleavy311no I agree, the perception you get of sex and women's role in it from pop music is often damaging. I just think the point in this one is that he just got what he wanted and left.
Adore how sweet and gentle her voice is in all her songs, and how the lyrics never, ever match that.
That's what makes it so special.
Lyrical Dissonance trope. XD
For me it's the Cockney accent.

Her songs are spot on love her❤
She looks like dolly parton, same show, jolines

She talked about it at least once in an interview, she never told him it was him and he never guessed.

I wonder: How a man would not like to feel his wife happy and for his own cause and care? Saludos, amigo.

This Song can turn the self confidence of any man into dust in seconds
Literally 7 seconds
I didn't have any self-confidence in the first place. I also prefer men.
It depends... When I was 29 I had a girlfriend who just wanted sex all the time, and when we did it, I could last for 2 hours. She then would be so exhausted that sometimes I would go to sleep without 'finishing'. I had been an alcoholic because girls would always reject me. I was so lucky to find that girl, cause otherwise I would by now be dead by cirrhosis or drunk-driven car crush.
Now I'm 50 and can have sex for an entire afternoon from 17:00 to 22:00 with the necessary stops and visits to the WC. I tell you: this song doesn't make me feel uncomfortable about my sexuality at all, it just makes me sad that you girls make bad choices and choose the 'bad guy' that looks awesome and is so self-confident you can't resist him... and then it happens. He is a narcissistic guy.... and an egoist! Why don't you choose the nice guy?? He would respect you and REALLY care! ..and who knows? Maybe that weirdo is a sex machine after all ...how can you tell? Don't be so cheap in your tastes about boys and give those nice guys a try.

I am German and when I was a child I used to sing this song all the time....now I understand English and... uhm ...interesting lyrics 🤣🤣🤣
I understood only the refrain and knew it was about a one-sided relationship...but never guessed it was about this part of the relationship
😂
Ja so ging es mir auch haha
s a m e
Geht mir genau so 😂😂
As a baby in comparison to this song. I love this and have got to know, only because this song was playing at our local grocery store, an I watched the whole store uplift in mood. Heard many many people singing along. Gave me a live and respect for this song and what it can do to people's mood. Respect!!!!! I showed my mum this song that heard at the store. Within seconds she say "Bob Dylan!! I can tell by the harmonicas!" 😫💕💕
I used to listen to this song when I was little all the time and I had no idea what it was about omfg
i still have no idea
wtf. thanks bro YouEatSht

You were joking at first? I hope so the lyrics don't sugar coat the meaning.
What did you think a wet patch meant . . ?
Giving head?
i love her strong ENGLISH in this song...she´s so cute
That isn't accent. That is actual English. American is an accent and the flat out rape of English.
@@roberttranceedm RAPE OF ENGLISH!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@roberttranceedmfair point but its accent
andrew Well, someone has to say it.
Well it’s still an accent and every accent is beautiful in different ways what are u a xenophobe
I thought I'm the only one who likes this song! 9 years ago this was my favourite song although I didn't understand the lyrics, I just loved the music!
Evelien Veen he wrote didn't
Agent. K. ikr
favorite*
She’s so gorgeous!
This song has a very nice rhythm but hearing it after so many years and finally being able to understand english...
Damn.
i know what you mean xD. i was like: Wait, what??
Well isn't it such happy song?
Talking about the best parts of being in a relationship
It talks about her finding the perfect boy that cares about her, but is awful in bed! She also questions whether she is overreacting.
Kontrasts Read my comment again
Juvelia L. Talking to Cracked out Dog :) It didn't put in the name for some reason.
My dad actually thought this was a country song from the 60s, and he really loved it and i remember him saying "the music back then was much better than the crap you hear today".🤣🤣🤣🤣
sounds like something my Dad would of said! LOL
I think your'e dad knew better , always satisfay a women in bed, otherwise they are not married a long time now a days😉
@@janwesterhuis6448 what the hell dude
I actually clicked on this thinking it was an old song I haven't heard and I was very shook
Lol what a dipshit
I’m french and it was my grandfather’s favorite song, until he understood the lyrics. He was like “NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO”
yeeeeeees
That's quite funny.
Hahahahahaaa hahahahahaaaaaaa! Hilarious tres tres amusant!
I’m brazillian and a got chocked when I discovered the translation 😂
@JustSomeDude I think you're really mean
Everything about this song and video is so well put together. Even the harmonica at 00:03:12
The Song has the guts to voice it when someone is unhappy in a relationship. I admire that, she told it like it was yet still in a charming nice way.
Oh I just thought she was an asshole who instead of talking problems through she writes songs about it LMAO
Song is great though
PS: nice Madoka magica pfp
How does it take guts for an attractive successful popstar to humiliate an ex boyfriend who clearly respected and cared for her but suffered from premature ejaculation? The poor guy didn't do it to be mean. If I got to have sex with Lily Allen in her prime I wouldn't have lasted too long the first time either probably.
EMmmMPOOOOOOOwwwWWweeeRRmenTTT
I understand now why my stepdad looked confused when i was listening to this when i was 12
He felt attakced?
@@tiely13 oof sis.
Yeaaaaah

This song cracks me up and makes sad at the same time.
Yeah... ^^;
❤️ U From Palestine 🇵🇸.. 🌹
Well put 👍
This song is exactly the type of song that gives me goosebumps and I don't even know why 🔝🔝🔝
So this was basically my jam when I was nine, I just remembered it and now I just listened to it again for the first time in 6 years and I still know every lyric. But now I understand them, why the hell did my family let me play this all the time...
Omg lol
Omg same, i first heard it on my 9th birthday at school and my best friend got me her new cd because i loved lily allen and my teacher said we could play it in class under the condition people do their work and we loved this song so we kept repeating it! Obviously we didn't know the meaning we just liked the song and our teacher was like "don't you want to play a different song" and we were like "no" but looking back, the teacher probably knew what it meant
+Sian Williams Probably a secret joke between them hearing you sing this inneundo driven song haha.
+Sian Williams "when i was nine..."I dont like where this is going
+Emily Nicholls You think?
imagine being the man that lily allen wrote this about tbh
hahahhah
hahaha poor guy
Well, it sounds as if he had it coming XD
SonsOfLorgar well he didn't have anything else coming AYYYYYOOO
she actually played this song for him and he was so arrogant and didn't even stop to think this could've been about him :D
This is masterpiece, nothing else..like many other Lily's songs.
Just heard she chose her children over stardom - very impressed, she's clearly precious on the inside as well as on the outside.
I remember her saying she was doing a lot of stuff with boys back in her highschool days
Well... OF is certainly a choice down that line...
British music will never be beaten. Lily isn't even taken that seriously in Britain yet she's still better than the likes of Beyonce
+Medina Sod Beyonce sucks
+Medina Sod As an American I agree, I only like 1 beyonce song.
+Medina Sod And better looking, I'm not being a perv, it's just a fact.
+Medina Sod I Agree
+Medina Sod not you saying this after lily's latest shitty, trashy, unoriginal and uninspired album. beyoncé is better than her and the critics agree. bye hunties! stay pressed
This music video is just amazing. I love how they make it 80's centric. I wonder what type of camera and effect they used.
*70's
Josh Thakbal They used an actual camera from the 70's
+Josh Thakbal Nirvana did something similar with a 50's style music vid similar to something like Lawrence Welk.
+Josh Thakbal they may made it look like it's from 80's, but the lyrics are very much 'todays'. I don't think anyone would get away with lyrics like that even in the 80's
+Filipe Lourenço Thats cool
I am a fan of music on the heavier end of the spectrum, but god i love Lily Allen, she is the definition of Pop with attitude.
Love this clip, the out of focus, the intentional bad camera work and the quirky not in time dancing. Fantastic!
OH MY GOD I SANG THIS INSIDE A CHURCH WHEN I WAS A KID
Hahahahahahahah same
Tom Attoe .-.
Tom Attoe That’s just morbid
adrianne Thornheart your profile pic made that comment 10 times better 😂
What did Tom attoe say?
Honestly.. My favorite part is the chicken on top of the cow.. They're both just so confused as to why they're there..
Our coal black Hen often resting on 25 year old Jersey Cow.. 👀😏
Perfect metaphor for the man this song is about, tbh.
😂
Me too.

I love the Banjo player. He is just the most confident mofa, all the other guys go through a big crisis.
I love the expressions of the male members of the band and the droopy noise of the harmonica at 3:11 - Hilarious!🤣🤣🤣
this song is definitely about the drummer :)
ED Hahah I laughed a bit too much at this
ED 😂😂😂
Its clearly about the guitarist you daft fucking spack child... ffs
Napoleon Dynamite face
I swear I paused at 3:18 to read comments and after this one I went to play the video .... I cant stop laughing xD
The 70's aesthetic is ridiculously spot-on - I actually double-checked the release date of the song, despite _knowing_ when it came out because I _remember_ it being new.
Beyond it being really catchy, I'm kind of ambivalent towards the song... but I definitely admire the attention to detail in this video.
Guardy I even wondered if they use the 70's cam to direct the show
You're right - according to Wikipedia, that's pretty much exactly what they did. Nice!
Guardy nice. If you noticed it, the lighting was also very detailed. The creativity !
Clothes, hair...very camp. So chic
oh my God!! I thought this video was ACTUALLY from the 70s! This is great!
The banjo player knows this song definitely isn't about him cus he be jamming
He's next T_T
Nah it's about the drummer hahahaha he just doesn't look happy being there 😂
Lmao
@@scoobydoo8693 I'd say it's between the guitarist and the drummer, given his reaction at 3:21
Never doubt the man with the mullet
Lily allen had some amazing bangers. I wish she would release new music. The world needs her!
oh my god this is the first time i actually listened to the lyrics and i realized i used to listen to this all the time when i was like 7...
god I'm actually feeling old
So your 12?
i'm actually 15, i meant to say when i was like 9 ish, oops
It's funny when you realize than the sings you used to listen as a child were speaking about sexe and drugs but you didn't really understand it ^^
7? Jesus man you grew up with this. This is totally different to what I grew up too... Hard to comprehend.
This song is a masterpiece.
I loved this song when I was a child! I thought it was innocent then I look at the lyrics and realize what she’s talking about
3:11 certified harmonica moment I love them!!
she's so good we don't deserve her. underrated.
true but not underrated, i mean the vid has almost 100 miljoen views
"Taylor Swift writes such mean things about her exes"
Lily Allen: "Hold my pint!"
She's not writing about her ex, she's writing about her husband.... LOL... That's the harshness of it.
@@dontcare4177 she released this several years before she got married though...
This song was released before Lily got married ! Iam no Taylor Swift's fan at all but gotta admit : she is so right ! Some men , most of the men even can be so dumb , not mature , selfish and Big Talkers treat women like dirt after getting what they wanted.
It’s not that Taylor Swift trashes her exes, it’s that she lacks self- awareness.
@@aaronschuschu4314 uh?
Nostalgia is insane, haven't heard this song in probably 10 years!
Me too! Just heard it again after a decade or so. But I still think it's a great song 🌟
Honestly. This used to be banging on every radio and then suddenly... disappeared. Ever since then I haven't met this song again until now. It's like meeting a friend from primary school again, and finding you're both in a good place
For me is since 1973
@@nikkivisser660i didnt heard it for 54 years
No idea why this song suddenly popped on to my feed... but I like it.
everything about this music video is hilarious..the drummer's facial expression, the guitar player's confused look, and there's the banjo player who did a crab metal kinda pose..lol
I ship lily and guitar player xD
The enthuasims of the dancers tho
The band all look dopey to make Like look great
It's surprising how long it took for me to understand what this song means :P
You're right. Damn, I didn't understand it was about a guys who can't have sex
***** Still, thats pretty fucked up. I didn't even hear this the first time O.o
I love Lilly Allen❤️ but this song doe i mean im only 10 at first i was like what does this song mean 😂
State Briga You probably haven't seen your 18th birthday :).

Remember when you were so innocent that you asked yourself: "Why does she even WANNA scream?"

Learn to eat some punani bro. I mean I'm a lesbian so I don't have the struggle of egoistic males not getting me off because I have the privilege of good sex. But it's just a lil inspo for you to satisfy some women so you don't have to be the reason why a song like this exists 🙄😂
