This has been buried somewhere in the back of my brain for years
Those head bops are unnaturally on point.
That's what made me like this song more than anything.
Hahahaha
Beware The Man With The Dancing Hands
Yeh, it’s also funny aswell

Remember when you had to actually call your friends up and say, “check out this song” and you held the phone up to the speaker? Good times, man.
I still do this... am I weird? 🤔
@@JuniorJr... maybe, but I like you for doing this.
@@RobertOrwellSandman hahaha thank you!
We were more social back then
@@onkelberra3166 I hate living in this modern world.
Finally found this song i knew from tv when i was a child. It only took 25 years.
dude most annoying feeling ever lol cant count how many hours ive spent trying to find random song that have popped in m head in the past :'(
Same thing happened to me with a Duran Duran song.
There's another from peep show during the mushroom party.
It's an electronic sound.
Dude SAME! played on BOX channel on the black cable box channel 99 or something just played music videos and this was one i could never find until now
It's one of those bangers we thought we will never see or hear again :D I love the internet for this I was literally 8 when this came out lol
That's commitment. I found mine too... Toms Diner, you feel?
Every time I want to find this video, I type in "Yellow toy cat smokes sausage". And it always works. 🤣
Lol!
Ded
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Hand puppet music video" for my part 😅
아 저게 고양이었음?
How is it possible for this to still sound "new" 20 years later? MAGIC
because its timeless :D
And hysterically funny :-)
@@Mouxbar Flat Eric is the Boss!
Ahah
music has no time bro, thats why
In 1999 I thought this video was pure genius.
In 2019 I still do.
In 2039, I'm gonna come back and read my comment.
Make sure to edit when you do, I'll be here waiting for you
@@irishgob9576 hehe nice said
Whe wait Bro!
ok boomer
i check 2029 if you came back inbetween
I just showed my kids and this has been the song of the month constantly playing in our house
Fatal error
My daughter adores this shes 19 and i played this for her when she was 1 and a half even had a sock pupppet to headbang...mr oizo is a genius...
I have a flat Eric toy that my father loved so much he nabbed it and put it on his side table. A 70 year old man 😂😂😂
That is good parenting.

😂😂😂😂
The raelly fast head banging bit cracks me up every time
I got the same. It's like 15 year ago that this came out and I still love it.
You should check out that guy dancing on San Salvador of David Moleon!! That's some hardcore headbanging!
Me too
+Cuzjudd me too lol
Ain't got shit on Kramer....
I need everyone to know I have been trying to find this effing song for like 20+ years! It was on a bootleg CD I bought off the street & it got lost before Shazam or SoundHound came out. I never knew how to describe it to anyone! I was just watching "Most Successful Dance Song of Each Month 1990-1999" & damn near fell out of my bed when this came on!! This has to be by far one of the most satisfying long lost song finds for me! Now excuse me while I play this for the next month straight! 🎉
Bud I know that feeling congratulations
Soooo happy you finally found this! Also check out his other albums and other stuff from Ed Banger Records!
Genuinely, Congratulations
My dad use to play this song when i was little and we would watch the mv together every now and then. I just found this again!!
The little gesture at 2:00 like he's enjoying this saucisse get me everytime
The way he poses there is just the cutest thing ever. 🤣
honestly the best part
Yep, when I saw it for the first time, I got hysterics laughter.
He acts as if he enjoyed a cuban cigar xD
This is deep Gay stuff
2020 and this is still gold. Simpler days in '99.
I remember when I 1st saw this vid on the old rent a video channel called "The Box" back in 98, 99 in Baltimore lol the puppet had and still has me 🤣🤣🤣
name one song of 2020 or lame 20 as i call it, a song that is as iconic.......crickets
This is a masterpiece
This music video has been playing in the back of my mind for 20 damn years
Class this👌, 1999 in my nova gte, with sub and base tube in boot bouncing with this in maccys drive thro 🤦♂️🤣👌👍
I remember this 😆 There were so many music videos like this in the 90's , so many original ideas. Seeing after almost 30 years just made my day.
24 years later and still a banger
I couldn't remember the name or artist, so I searched phone puppet. Was not disappointed.

Flat Eric's work day:
- call a bunch of people and hold the speaker up to blasting house music
- sign some papers
- hold sausage in mouth
- type at a keyboard without a monitor
+anjo Instead if talk he just kind of.. Well.. Does those weird noises.
+Adam Sorrell So that was you with the house music on my voicemail.
+anjo You forgot about warming up his eyeballs.
I know man, I realised this a week or so ago and its been tearing me up inside ever since.
+anjo shit man, I'm sorry...why can't I do anything right?
I don't know why I am watching this 😊
Still absolute genius. It wasn't a fad, it was groundbreaking.
Whoever listens to this type of music, i want to be friends with.
Your in luck m8!
So be my friend dude
🍞
I have som many friends base on this simple music rule. When at parties someone actually put on good stuff - don't let them leave without saying high.
This track always reminded me of this one :
Tijuana - Groove is in the Air (FC Kahuna rmx)

It's incredible just how catchy yet simple this still is, after so many years.
I knoww right

This was back in the days before they knew the dangers of smoking Frankfurters.
I'm coming here every day and I noticed something out of order in comments, than I looked at the date, than on likes ratio. Cheers to everyone who is still enjoying free time with Flat Eric! :D
😂😂😂 Ah those good old days with dangerous frankfurtes
Welp not anymore
Yeah, I can't believe that I used to be on twenty a day.
Oh shit and here i am just putting them down my throat
Still the best musicvideo ever produced. Timeless classic.
Not to mention all the flat Eric’s that people had in the back windows of their cars
I mean...no.
'best music video ever'? I think you set the bar a lil low there, perhaps watch some more music videos.
It’s Donald trump lol
@@PoseidonDiver People like different things
I swear, every once in a while, this tune gets into my head and up until now I didn’t know the name of it
SAME
Absolute monster of a beat! Still walks all over most of the dance tunes these days. Years ahead of the game
Years ahead? This was riding the coat tales of the breakbeat boom that had been going on for YEARS by 1999.
This is just another track. It’s good. But, the era was filled with stuff like this, and stuff that was a bit more complex.
I've been trying to emulate Oizo's head banging skills while holding a phone up against a phat ass bass speaker for 22 years and I think I might have just cracked it.
Damn, that's worth a tweet.
your neck?
Cracked your phone or your skull?
the speaker?
Thats actually Flat Eric, not Oizo :)
Shoutout to Mr. Oizo, the director of this video and above all, the puppeteer for creating an absolute timeless 3 minutes!
@@Sebas_Mendez_Kinoman Deerskin!
Eric banging will always be awesome :)
He also directed the movie "Rubber".
Mr. Oizo is actually a very famous (at least in France) french director (name is Quentin Dupieux) ! A lot of non sense and humour, close to the "french touch" movement (e.g. the Daft Punk).
Who’s listening to this banger 2024 ? ❤

I love Flat Eric. He's such a strange creature, but he's adorable too. And the way he speaks is genius!
The song never gets old either 🩵
I'm surprised his headbanging hasn't became a meme yet.
Was ahead of the time, luckily.
It was a popular meme (aka "fad") back in the mid 2000s, especially on YTMND.
This was a meme for sure

YES
First electro house tune ever, stood the test of time! (:
1999- I bought the singel cassette in Poland just to have it on my walkman. You damn legend Mr Oizo !
People thinking this is weird music. You really need to explore a little bit more Mr Oizo
And 90s music in general, god how could people think that this sound weird ?
Because its new to them and they are used to bullshit pop and not chart-topper Mr. Oizo stuff
but they listen to dubstep so why do they think mr oizo is weird ? xD
This is just really unique and it takes time to get used to
is dubstep even music? lol
When you lie on your resume and get the job.
the only funny comment on here
I always do
Hahaha
I learned to LIE like a Whiteman!!!
everybody lies..
One of the most laid back tracks of all time and I'd say the best music video ever made.
Was on a boat trip dpwn the Clyde once and silicon soul played this, tripping out ma box what a day what a tune

Headbanging to Mr Oizo, smoking sausages as if they were cigars, signing some contracts and typing on a computer without a monitor - where can I apply for that job?
Mr. Oizo The King. Phat phat beats, dancefloor madness. Still have my 12”, all beat up from playing it countless times. Classic.
Is it just me or does this song and video get more iconic by the year ?
prophetic as well
That's the principle of time yes
Definitely not only you👍

Yes, this was kind of all over the place back then (Europe). It was something different. And the video was wacky.
MTV still showed music videos, now it only shows uninteresting things

This track is legendary . alot of UK styles were born from producers doing their own take on this style . whether it was nu skool breaks or garage , and later the uk 4x4 sound or bass heavy garage took this vibe and ran with it . still sounds fresh !

In '99 when this came out, I was jobbing in a computer store. We had a new Pentium III on display, which showed off its mp3 playing capabilities. So for weeks and weeks we would have this song and Mambo No 5 playing in turns in the store. Still hard to get it out of my head to this day.
