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!

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. 👍

The fact you searched for this song and scrolled through the comments..... Makes you cooler than you think you are !! 😍

Who’s listening in 2024

How legendary this song from a band who's music was so different ! A true classic !!!

This song will never age and still sounds as good today!

This band had such range. They could play it all.

Attented a 10cc concert in Belgium last night, still as awesome!

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.

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.

I heard this in my car yesterday morning. Since then it has been stuck in my head and I have been singing or humming it. Later that day, I was in a beer taproom and I sang "I don't like reggae" and the gentleman next to me goes "I love it". He said "Great 10cc tune". I go "You know it!"

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..

10CC were such a massively talented band...they made fantastic music effortlessly

10cc’s last ever hit. Fine group from the 70s.

this song is totally and utterly masterpiece

44 years later and this song just magically popped into my head. I love it, yeah 👍

Absolutely timeless... it's before "my time" and I still "love it!"

That chorus bassline is the bread and butter line of all house music. Legendary.

Me and my mate were debating whether it said cricket or reggae…. Turns out its both haha

Reminds of my school days in the 70,s ...love it ❤😂

This Song Stood the Test of Time. It sounds better than back in 1978.

Loved it in '78. Love it in '22. 🌞♥️

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.

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.

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 !!!

To the tourists watching this: Saying you love Cricket, Reggae or Jamaica will not prevent you from getting robbed.

That's my dad with the dreadlocks aired live on bbc top of the pops..70's

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!

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!

I love that while on vacation he carries a picture of his mom... what a good lad ..🤗

My God,listening to this brings back fond memories of listening to the album blasting out on my dad's record player as a young kid.I think I must know just about every song word for word.10cc were a brilliant band.

I love this band. Very talented. Every song tells a story and the music matches the story.

I don't like this song... I love it!

This was the first time in my life that a song was presented with a video telling a story this way. Revolutionary it was!

Pure magic music.Doesnt get any better than 10 cc.

This takes me right back to Takapuna Beach, New Zealand, 1978. It was a great time and place to grow up in.

10cc's greatest hits was the first casette I ever bought with my own money when I started working in 1978

Saw them live when it had just reached number 1 in the charts. Had three number ones with different lead singers. All great singers.

I love how they refer Jamaica to 'her'. Its the small things that make a beautiful song!

I remember when this song hit the charts it was being played practically 24/7 by all the radio stations. Never get tired of listening to it, then, and I haven't got tired of listening to it since.

On of the greatest songs of all time as a 17 year old I'm glad my dad raised me right with music

The best happy-go-lucky song of all time. LIfts the spirit. High vibrations.

One of the greatest pop bands of all time

I heard this for the first time during a Senior year trip to Nassau, Bahamas April 1980, love and listen to it ever since. Reminds me of a special time in my life.

The good old times, when looks weren't emphasized so much for musicians but their pure talent...

Fussion in full swing ! Briliant match of boogie, soul, folk, rock, pop, reggae and rhythm and blues... Amazing composition.. timeless. it will still be legendary song in a hundred years from now...

If disco and reggae had a baby...

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)

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 😎

The more you play this song, the better it gets! 🌴💃🏾🎧

All the dislikes were from people who LOVE the song!

Topissime 💯💯💯 Masterpiece 🏅🏅🏅. From Paris France 19 Août 2024

Я балдел от этой песни в 70 - е, да и сейчас. 😍😍😍👍👍👍👋👋👋

"concentrating on truckin right". Every single man who's been abroad for holiday can relate to that.

The clip is priceless. the song is timeless! We don't Like Cricket, WE LOVE IT!

10cc and reggy rocks. I'm so glad I grew up when I did.

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., 😊

This track featured briefly on the Reggae Sunsplash 1979 VHS cassette.. I'm smiling listening to this right now...

Still a great song after all these years. I don't like reggae, I love it! Incredible lyrics guys!

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 KZfaq. 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.

wish I was 18 years old again, dancing pissed out of my head in local nightclub to this track way back in 1978

I absolutely love this song, it gets stuck in my head all the time.

"And that's why I don't like cricket." - Bob Fossil.

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.

10cc would have to be 1 of the most eclectic bands,pop,rock,reggae Everything

Possibly the most under rated band of all time

Lyrically one of the greates songs of all time. The third verse is brilliant: 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.

We will never get music this good again.

I was 12 years of age when this great song came out in 1978 and it must be one of the first videoclips in popmusic.

what a classic!! an amazing band, so unique... no one can touch them!!! xx

I love being a 70s child!

La musica di quei tempi è ineguagliabile, unica, irripetibile... ❤❤❤

The woman is drop dead gorgeous

Things like this make me happy to be alive...they also make me miss a different time that I wasnt around for.

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

Listening from Greece!! Be loved with it... memories...❤

As a child in the early 2000's I played a flash game called skull kid where the main riff of this song played as a loop for the soundtrack of the game and I can't believe I just found it without looking for it. It just fell here on my lap organically how amazingly strange.

This song will be relevant for an eternity.

Cricket , seagulls, summer, regae and this song pure enjoyment

Absolutely top shelf. This will never get old.

This is my dad’s favourite song I don’t like cricket, I LOVE IT.

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.

メロディーもアレンジもセンスが素敵すぎます。MVにも癒やされます。彼らの作品に出会えて良かった♪

I meet with a few friends on Friday nights, smoke cigars, have a few drinks talk and look up songs we think the others have not heard before. This one I had not heard before. I liked so I added it to my song list. That’s the point of our little exercise.

This song must be timeless because I can't stop listening to it. I love it!

This was the first record i ever bought (september 1978), brilliant song.

Amo esta canción, y así será por los siglos de los siglos!!!!!!!

first reggy song I heard, then came Bob M. this is a classic, I´m 61 yo.

This song is timeless.

Double entendre...."Would you like something harder?" Lol😏 Great song. Great feel. Impossible not to groove to it even all these years later.

You know it's a legendary holiday when you come home and write a song about it.

This is the official anthem of cricket

2019, and it's still as fabulous as back then.. I saw 4 faces, 1 mad, a brother from the gutter, they looked me up and down a bit then turned to eachother... 🎶🎵🎶

I love it that they are both good melody and rhythm people and it's all so relaxed and spontaneous and yet perfect and clever.

MY FAVE TRACK BY THEM. THIS STILL SOUNDS SO FRESH. 10 CC'S MUSIC, NEVER GETS OLD. THEY ARE A QUITE UNDERAPPRECIATED BAND, IN MY VIEW 🤔

This was my favourite song when I was 14 I’m now 57 still sounds great

So hilarious and good tune as well!! LOVE 10cc and Eric Steward is eye candy to boot!....😄😄💞💕💘

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 😂

I was born in 85. This is one of those songs of I've loved since my childhood, but I was today years old when I saw this video, AND when I found out the band was not Jamaican! A great song for its time, and a great memory/history for all who enjoy it.

Как же хочется на Ямайку, отдыхать на пляже и пить коктейли под эту песню, а не вот это вот все...
