The Cribs 'You're Gonna Lose Us' Dirs: Sarah Chatfield and Chris Sweeney
Remember that tv show The Word? These guys have done a homage to it - really funny and totally like the show was! it's by duo called Sarah & Chris colonel blimp peeps
Might be a bit meaningless to anyone from outside the UK or born after 1980. But it is a faithful reproduction, aesthetically speaking. Including original presenter, Terry Christian.
It's a shame it doesn't also reproduce the gleeful / painful moments I remember, as The Word pushed the accepted standards of televisual taste and decency. - And that was fifteen years ago.
Girl band L7's trouser dropping moment has surely gone down in history as one of those watershed live TV moments like Bill Grundy interviewing the Sex Pistols.
hm. feels they're trying to pull another freezing simian...
dont think trouser-dropping and eating razor blades / poo etc would've got played on mtv but hear you
i think this video is pretty much crap.
