The Fall were important to the world, the world just didn't realise.

Shit the bed this country produces some exhilarating bands think we took it for granted that we would just always have bands as good as the fall but sadly it isn’t a gimme nowadays, genius at work rest easy mark

Man, I'm 45 yrs old, have listened to an awful lot of music in my life, but somehow always missed The Fall. Now I am falling in love.

Words can't explain how important the fall are too me, thank God I still have so much music to keep me going, thanks Mark, rest in peace hip priest.

thank god for john peel r.i.p john please take a bow for introducing the world to such a great artist

Potentially one of the greatest songs ever written.

Just had to come and listen to my favourite song by The Fall after hearing the news. Another unique musical talent gone. Give it a few years and all we'll be left with is just the manufactured stuff.

One of their best along with The Man Whose Head Expanded, 2x4, Draygo's Guilt, Room To Live, Fiery Jack, Kicker Conspiracy, Cary Grant's Wedding & How I Wrote Elastic Man - all classic chug-a-long Fall

"communinsts are just part time workers...and there's no thanks... from the loading bay ranks... for the container drivers..."

Classic Mark - this studio version is perfection

“You’ll get no thanks, from the loading bay ranks” - as good a line as Morrissey ever wrote.

Bad Indigestion - Bad Bowel Retention. Taylor Swift NEEDS to hear these lyrics, someone tell her about The Fall.

Great to see Mark and Brix looking happy, great time for fall fans. Bit like now really.

One of the five greatest bands of all time. My god is MES an absolute visionary.

Started a new job. First client named Roche. Learned to pronounce the name properly from MES. Now I can think of the Fall even more often than previously

yow, i was a container driver, this is great!

The greatest pop tune of all time!!!! I'm an atheist but MES is GOD!

Thank God for The Fall

Mark E. the Man. RIP awesome Man.

Favourite track. Love the energy of this. Farewell Mark you living Leg end.

Genius.. what can you say. .the clip is brilliant

If I danced to this song the way I really feel it.... I'd be left by my love and alone, lol. It's just so intoxicating! Have loved this track and the whole album for so many years, it's more than just a little moving.....

There will never be another one like Mark.

congratulations. today this video was selected by the NYC Punk Rock Evolution Foundation.

God, this Peel session is so good.

A simple well-done and fitting video for a great song. One of my all-time faves.

brilliant brilliant

No one could snarf a bnh down like mark e modern day rockerbilly classic

MES.RIP. Always different. Always the same. John PEEL.RIP

Is there anyone who still hasn't heard 'Cheap Space Chant' ? In KZfaq, search for 'Timekode, Mark E Smith' and listen to the strangest and best MES/Fall collaboration of them all...

Just Genius...🙌

ridiculously great and apt band!!!

Sweet video awesome 😎

I just wanna dance to this rock and roll. Genius!

The driver has at last left his container

Yeah?!! Yeah! Yes gud chaps x

R.I.P M.E.S

I wish the Fall would write a song about articulated lorry drivers.

Timeless and suddenly appropriate 2021 today.

RIP...beaut rock n roll

And there's no thanks, from the loading bay ranks. What a line.

This is the naz.

this rox!

Great cover of a Carl Perkins classic.

i use to play this record alot in my room when i lived w/ mom & dad years ago oh my god that was twenty years ago! still fresh i mean its pop now.bonzo76 rockon!!!!!!!!!!!!1

1 2 3 4.....

i love this band

CB radio haulage the m6 only the fall could make theses subjects of songs

The Fall do 12 bars relatively straightforwardly. Now there's a thing.

RIP... 20 years too soon

quality video MES is a god

Good stuff

Someone posted this today - the great driver shortage of 2021.. :D Yeh the slow disintegration of life in the UK (for another few days anyways!)

the fall means more to me than me

R.I.P Mark. Thank you

@luvinbuzzin I appreciate your civility on the matter. I've been witness to some pretty fierce debates/flamewars regarding The Fall (especially when Pavement/Stephen Malkmus is involved, LOL), so this is a welcome change, haha. "he could make a cracking tune with pots and pans ::)" Clever bloke, isn't he? :D

Mark E Smith RIP :(

self contained . . .

RIP Mark you are missed already

THX!

:O !!!

Communists are just part time workers. Only from MES will you get that sort of lyric. Awesome.

@luvinbuzzin I was thinking the same. If it's an 'official' video why is there a shot of Hex Enduction Hour' that was released two years later? Still, great song.

Tune.

Make this the National Anthem

@23MIKE95 Yes this is the official video from Perverted By Language BIS VHS video

listen psycho mafia"" is very great song

RIP

@subscooby I think certain aspects sound strikingly similar. But that's me. If you don't hear anything, that's all right. Some people (a lot of people) say Pavement's "Conduit For Sale!" is a direct rip-off (homage, perhaps?) of The Fall's "New Face In Hell". Still others claim that "New Face In Hell" sounds uncannily like The Velvet Underground's "What Goes On", and on and on, lol. I don't know. I like it all. Wait, did I inadvertently introduce you to The Monks? If so... :D I love my Monks.

rip mark

Their finest 2 minutes and 46 seconds.

Bye bye Mark. Thank you.

Uh huh Berlingos.. and their drivers...

post punk listen to the wake ¡¡ is very best band of decade 80's great song yeahh ¡¡

RIP MES

End of Frankie Boyle when they all walk off x credits

This isn't the official video, it's a straight cut from the "Perverted by Language" video :-)

Bye Mark!

Wish I could have seen The Fall in these days. Wasn't even fucking born though, so hey.

Better than the album version?

@boomstickblues I think it sounds WAY more like "Hip Priest."

Asda yoused 2b Shan x

speed for their wages

That cat at 1:38 really got its claws into Mark (and I'm not talking about Brix)

They are not getting to eu-rope after bruxit. The container drivers hav lost there best man. We ded.

Anyone knows what he says at 1'25"? something like 'elastic goes on their co-op jeans'?

They might have taken those drum breaks from Elvis' Hound Dog, they were big onto rockabilly during this time

mark died - so sad

Mark E Smith at his best

Official video my arse.

“Sucked and torn shirt sleeves”

and there is no thanks from the loading bay ranks

this sounds like the fucking beach boys

MES=moderne shakespeare

to be honest about the only Fall track I have time for any more

out of hand

dont forget live at the witch trials Mr david.

..and this is a different version than the one on Grotesque..i dont know where its from,im sure somebody out there knows.

its different than the album release, slightly.

I meant the nazz.
