David Brent? Bloody good song writer.

I think we just need to accept that this is the greatest song that has ever been written, or ever will be.

Brilliant! I particularly love the reference to Whitley Wood 😊

Greatest British song writer of all time

So good! You can hear his Seona Dancing voice 😊

Beautiful song. No comments allowed on the official video. Ricky/David Brent's best work.

GENIUS !!!!

He's brilliant. Obviously.

Even though it's a joke song, it still hits

And clean! lol

Now the way he swings is pro level stuff!

This is actually a beautiful song 🤣

I love how he deliberates over the cost of the lucky heather mid song.

I was there!!

Steve Coogan and Ricky Gervais are both highly underrated musicians and songwriters. They follow in the hallowed footsteps of Neil Innes and Benny Hill in this regard.

Ricky living out a his dream:)

He's like a chubbier David bowie

There is something profoundly sad about the song. It has undoubtedly a lovely tune and Gervais knows it. But in the end he decides to disown it. Not good enough he seems to say. Cannot stand alone on the merits of the music. He has to work in the mockery of David Brent and his insecurities. Insert cruel humour, which subsequently, and cleverly denigrates the song. As an artistic product it is ultimately about the joke not the song, the successfful comedian asserting himself over the failed, amateurish musician. In this performance he tries to restore the song's dignity but the lyrics of the second and third verse make that near impossible.

Should have entered the euro vision with this great tune😂

Ricky you did well mate😂
