THE JAM - TO BE SOMEONE
Переглядів 107 тис.16 років тому
A video and pictorial representation of to be somone
Absolutely kicks ass.
I have a one litre Honda and at the lights in front of me was a Lambretta 200. All I could hear was his expansion chamber, and in a cloud of smoke he very slowly pulled away from me. I was riding my partners SH125 shopping bike at the time. This is like race walking, or seeing who can whisper the loudest. If you want to see something decent, watch Colin Furze make a dodgem car do 107mph.
What's the bloody point?
It's a challenge
Why not? Any fucker can buy fast bikes.
Stuart day's a top fella and bloody quick too . . . . And I used to watch Keith terry carb tuning lammys up and down the road outside kegras shop in the 80s . He really knows his stuff . And also a top fella .
Keith is a scooter genius. I remember his PX racer going for it away from the lights at The Bell on one of their open days.
how . the.FUCK. did he write songs like this at 20??????
this video is pretty old now, the top speed of lambretta's on a standing 1/4 mile start is much faster than this now, see santa-pod lambretta against the yam RD (works special) . . the lambretta leaves the RD standing, the lambretta is tuned by Darrell @ 50cc tubing who makes lambretta's go quick, his RB does the 1/4 mile at a speed any motorbike would be proud of . . . .
Paul. I think you will find the Lambretta you might be referring to is a twin auto in a Lambretta frame. There are still very few Lambrettas cut down or full bodied in the 12.00 second bracket .
Noel puts emotion and feelibgs into the song
Have a word with your self.
The original is the best version noels version is an interpretation which gives the song a different feel.
Don't understand the arguments goin on here both weller and Noel are geniuses lets just be thankful we listen to this compared to some of the shot out there now
My favourite Jam track of all time. A vision of the future, todays world will drop people as soon as they fall from grace, maybe it was always like that? Guitar shaped pool pic was class, brilliant montage, thanks for sharing it, so us dyed in the wool fans can relive a wonderful period of British music
bretta69 if it's you that added the extra bits, then thank you. You did a sterling job. If not, then it is still a great upload. Loved it, so thank you. Didn't we have a nice time. Yes we did - cheers!
Wish I was there to get clocked with my lammy. Rekon I've had a good 65 out my tv175. Lol
like the lonely room picture ,,, kinda sums it up ,,
I like more the Noel Gallagher version.
@bretta69 Thanks very much m8 thats a very awesome video, cheers Merry Christmas.
@MrJamclock here you go m8 copyand paste this code into youtube search o0TWxr4PFAE
and last but not least what a fucking tune
1 noel is no wannabe..(he has 93 million) maybe more now 2 weller is the better artist.by miles 3 noel would tell you that himself. thats why i like the bloke he is straight up and honest he hides nothing hes already said hes a lucky man..and got in to the charts at a good time 4 noel deserves everything he has earned from music. he has great choice of idols weller being one of them. 5 oasis saved the 90s from a complete and utter 10 year disaster of music 6 liams a prick (even noel says so)
Like and love but would prefer to see the video without the inserts.
Jam fans? Find me on Twitter @SolidBond1
years old this now, a bloke in germany hitting over 140, on ten inch wheel that's quick . .
@micbergsma Mallory Park Racing Circuit Kirkby Mallory Leicestershire LE9 7QE
nothing like the original!
Good job on your video I liked it very much!
@adyshakes What's wrong with a capo on the first fret?
I LIKE NOEL BUT HAVE TO COMMENT THAT HIS VERSION AND BEING POLITE IS VERY POOR, CAPO ON THE FIRST FRET AND MADE UP WORDS. IF HE WERENT A SUPER STAR HE WOULD NOT GET A BOOKING IN A LOCAL PUB ON THE BASIS OF THIS. TO BE SOMEONE ?
I remember seeing some of these bikes in Scootering back in my younger years. Cheers for posting. Since I could not find a cure for Lambretta fever, I had to start building an RB 240.
every song by the Jam is fucking class but this, dreams of children and thick as thieves have to be my faves...
@scrosby87 good point mate, tempo may be a tad fast,,,,,,, but still a stonking tune.
Defo one of the best Jam songs ever, great lyrics. I'm 45 still trying to be someone lol. I like the added touch to the vid, good work. CLASS 10/10
vespa :hammer: ngakak
where is mallory park at?
Noels was better by miles
be nice to see a update on this with edmonds and topper :D
@stevehannah wtf a c3?
Ha! I saw the Noel Gallagher version first (being a serious Oasis fan) I really do like this though... It's more ecclectic and exciting. :)
neol gallaghers version sucks, the best part O this song is the amazing guitar
My C3 will kick this Scooters AZZ : )
@servetakid I suppose that depends on the gearing setup for each track, but on the big tracks some of the Group 4 bikes are faster than the Group 6. For track racing they really only count lap times. That said, the new record for Lambretta top speed is 132 mph. That on an aircooled Lambretta set up for sprinting doing a flying mile much like how they did the tests in this video.
Hi. The 132 mph Lambretta is the same sprinter filmed in this video doing 112 mph . In this video I was doing a sprint meeting at the weekend so was using only my 1/4 mile standing start gearing so at 112 mph it was not really going to go any faster. Move forward to 2009 and we where after a completely different goal , top speed ! nothing else mattered the body work was bought up to date and some aerodynamic touches added and regeared for top end speed runs only. We turned up with favourable weather conditions and stuck that speed in on the first run. We had running issues after that then blew it up but shit happens ! Keith Terry
Noel Gallagher's version is so much better.
Shut up, Your saying noel gallaghers version is better than this classic. have a word with your self.
Thats not an 'Arthur negus 225' with a snettelotti! is it!! lol
Mate! That was a classic! (pictorially)!! you are as mad as me!! lmfpo!
y not just have a drag race? saves timeplus more entertaining
the only thing epic about noel gallagher is his gob !!!!!!! not a patch on this and never will be
Progress mate !
Mid 1990s, this was from a UK made direct to video production called Scooter Crazy. What's crazier is that that todays Group 4 Lambrettas are making the same horsepower as the 90's Group 6 bikes.
Where did you find that one?Can you tell its year production?Amazing!
1 of The Jam's finest songs and performance. Thanks for putting it on much appreciated. If you like this song Noel Gallagher does a excellent cover in my opinion
What a great bit of video. Cheers
GREAT JOB
