Back then before social media, instead of rudely announcing our displeasure with different approaches to life, people did constructive things like turn their personal frustrations into art that everyone could enjoy. It can be very cathartic to wring some joy out life by evolving a frustration into a creation.
They are the Fairbrass brothers who owned a gym in London. They would see all the posing going on by the patrons and joked about all the narcissistic behavior. The lead singer apparently took off his shirt one day and began posing and made up this song. Song became a hit.
Yeah, total satire. Takin' a piss at all the vain people who used show up at the gym he and his brother owned. Standing in front of the mirror, worshipping themselves. Those people never understood that this was a dig at them.
@@neilgayleard3842 - Cribbins......could also do 'Hole in the Ground'...'don't dig there, dig it elsewhere, and don't dig it round when it ought to be square....' Classic !!
Bernard Cribbins is an absolute legend, having appeared from the 1960's to the 2000's in everything from Fawlty Towers to Coronation Street to childrens' road safety public information films.
Your comments were 💯 on point Asia. I remember they would play this in the gym and everyone would start dancing 😂. Watching people doing the model walk towards the wall mirrors 😂.Was one of those feel good songs. Great reaction Asia and BJ ❤️
This was huge back in the day.. everybody went around singing this. It was just too much fun! I still hear someone say it every now and then and it cracks me up 🤣
Omg i remember this. Got me baggin up 😆 what’s funny is how serious he is. I wonder how many bloopers there are from them stopping the filming cuz they couldn’t stop laughing 😂
Bassist Fred and his brother, singer Richard Fairbrass are still performing now and still look good when I saw them last year. Guitarist Rob Manzoli plays a Jimi Hendrix riff from the song 'Third Stone from the Sun' on this track
This came out when my son was about 6 & he used to sing this putting his school uniform on - he went to a church school & I used to say please don't sing this at school!!.
LOL so i used to be a professional wrestler and this song was my partner and i’s ring entrance music back in ‘92 lol we both wore pink spandex and pink feather boas to the ring 😬 good times!
It was sending up the modelling/fashion industries with ridiculous lyrics-the visuals were a giveaway as well, the bald guitarist had £15 stuck on his guitar. They were huge in the UK & Europe from 1991-1993 as a joke band, but then had no real success after that-although they are still huge in Germany as a touring band. More recently they ended up being derided due to their Covid views. Right Said Fred was a hit single for the UK actor Bernard Cribbins 30 odd years earlier & they named themselves after that.
It is a pop duo from UK. They had with this song in 1991 the second No 1 hit of a british group in the US after the Beatles in 1964. And this pop duo is a two-hit wonder. "Don't talk just kiss" is also from them.
There was a movie called Grumpy Old Men this song was in. I don't know what year it came out but I rented the video tape and took it to my 86 year old mother's house to watch it with her. She loved this song and I got the biggest kick out of her reaction. She was a GOD fearing southern lady with never a hair out of place but she threw her head back and roared at this. thank you for reacting
If you don’t do “Rico Suave” then it’s criminal. It’s in line with this. Probably did more to change mens fashion during that period then most are willing to admit. Lol Rico Suave was to Latinos what Rocky was to Italians. #facts
Back in the day I used to go a lot to a serious heavy metal club. The place was always packed with the biggest scary looking thrash metal fans moshing HARD to the heaviest music you could get yet, every night without fail, the DJ would play this song and the place would go NUTS 🤣🤣🤣🤣 It was always hilarious seeing these big scary moshers posing around to it and god forbid, if the DJ DIDN'T play it there would be a RIOT lol it became a tradition.
Through the decades women have made several themed songs..like this one. Back in the day it was so refreshing to see men..finally write a song like this!. Song is all about Runway Models. These guys were geniuses with getting their views on paper..then performing it beautifully.
“Right said Fred / One each end and steady as we go / Try to shift it / Couldn’t even lift it / we were getting nowhere.” These are the lyrics from an old London song.
Right Said Fred are a London-based English band formed by brothers Fred and Richard Fairbrass in 1989. They are best known for the hit 1991 song "I'm Too Sexy".
1st) Asia has one of the most fantastic li'l faces anyone could ever see! 2nd) As far as 'one-hit-wonder' i think these guys were actually a 'two-hit-wonder'.(But don't ask me to remember the other one, haha) Two brothers (i think from Germany, but i could be wrong on that) I heard on a brief interview(somewhere) that he had made this song as a 'goof' and then it just f'n took off. It was popular, got a lot of play on MTV at the time (unfortunately haha. A lot of us just thought it sucked, and couldn't figure out it's popularity) Idk, a lot of people apparently liked it. Now there's that one catchy little riff (it shows the guy playing it on a guitar, but it sounds so heavily synthesized, it sounds more like a key-board) idk if they sampled that from someone, or if others had sampled it from them. That's the part you probably heard 'somewhere'. That's actually, not a bad riff, on it's own. And yet somehow perfectly fits the whole 'cat-walk theme'. I could totally picture a girl walking a cat-walk with that music playing, it just somehow fits. But yeah, ha ha, 'so' ridiculous, smh, indeed.
Right Said Fred are an English-based band and the song is fun and incredibly tongue-in-cheek. As you know us Brits like to make fun of ourselves.The band are named after a popular comedy song from the 1960s called “Right Said Fred” by the actor Bernard Cribbins where he spins a tale of men trying to move a piece of furniture and gradually dismantling the whole house in the process.
"Right Said Fred" made this song to actually poke fun at all the self-centered conceited celebrities of the time (models, actors, singers, etc.). So, it was really a joke on them.
Don't know if it's been mentioned yet but the guitar lick at the bridge is from Jimi Hendrix's "Third Stone From The Sun". It was the hook that got the attention that turned it into an instant worldwide classic.
This song took over when it released…Ppl had the most self esteem at that time than any other time since Ive been alive. It sounds like itd be a cocky song to make as an artist but in reality it transferred that self worth into every body that listened to it. It was on the radio all the time snd when it came on you couldnt help but feel a bit stronger about yourself. Its a pretty cool little transfer of self esteem.
"Right Said Fred" was the title of a comedy song by Bernard Cribins released in the late 1950's /early 60's. It is a standard phrase used in the UK. The guys were taking the piss out of people posing in their gym and probably took the name in homage to the original funny song. IT is very British in every respect!
Formed by brothers Fred and Richard Fairbrass in 1989 and are still going today! They are best known for the hit 1991 song "I'm Too Sexy". Think about this it reached number 1 hits in 70 countries including one US number 1, one UK number 1, and a number 1 in Japan. They were the first UK band to reach the number one slot in the US with a debut single since The Beatles. They have performed for Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom, Nelson Mandela. Crazy fun Song!
Many, many years ago, I stopped by our local high-end stereo dealer and bought "the most fabulous object in the world" (Time Bandits reference) from their trade-in rack: a 5 disc CD carousel player (in the late 80s, this was epic). The stereo story HID a "Right-Said-Fred" cd in the carousel player, just to get rid of it. Along with Wham! and Milli Vanilli's Greatest Hits....
I remember Growing up in Fortlaudale Florida listening to this and all the killer techno pop songs in nightclubs that were as big as cities themselves...Born and raised there in Fort Lauderdale when folks just loved everyone. The late seventies and eighties what a blast. An awesome time to be alive. Before the left was trying to destroy our country. Trying to destroy E Pluribus Unum and usher in the CCP of the West a Totalitarian godless hell hole. I love seeing these guys smiling and laughing they lift my spirits. Thank you so much... l love you BOTH SO MUCH...PLEASE REMEMBER FOLK'S TO HIT THE LIKE BUTTON AND SHARE THEIR HAPPINESS AND LOVE WITH EVERYONE.....🔥👍🔥
Right Said Fred was a song by a man called Bernard Cribbins a song about a couple of working guys failing to get a job done. Loved by little kids in the 60's. The smile at the end says it all, it's just fun.
Making fun of people who think they are too sexy. It's perfect. Though, back in the day everybody became too sexy on the dance floor when this song started. It was fun.
He's making fun of models, and the whole fashion industry in general. First time I heard this song, I hated it, but later started to love it, and still do.
When the song came out, gay men like singer Richard Fairbrass were really getting in to working out, and were often referred to in a derogatory manner as gym bunnies (or worse). He had a clear image of himself, however, and this was a self piss-take aimed just as much at himself as it was at all the other buff guys.
I heard South Padre 1992 you couldn't walk 20 feet without another boombox jamming this song. It had a 2 or 3 month run but it was definitely lit during that time.
Classic song and much loved. There is a small section that sounds like something I heard before. Watching this I suddenly realised they sampled 'Dance With The Devil' by Cozy Powell! Drove me nutz.
They should react to ''Rumors'' Timex Social Club (I can't believe I still remember them). To me, ''Rumors'' and ''I'm Too Sexy'' went hand in hand w/ each other. They both discuss things/thoughts that occur in life but still funny to hear a song about it.
I had to share this awesome video I knew everyone would love it... I'm so thankful you guys are keeping us all smiling and reminding us life is about loving one another and being happy... every time I enjoy your channel I smile and feel the love...keep up the good work...God Bless America 🇺🇸 And may God bless all her Countrymen...
Right Said Fred is comprised of the buff brothers Richard and Fred Fairbrass, and at the time, guitarist Rob Manzoli. The Fairbrass Brothers were managers at a London dance studio called the Dance Attic, where they came across lots of narcissism and posing. As Rich Fairbrass tells it, they had a loop playing on the computer, and inspired by his dance studio experience he spontaneously took his shirt off and started singing, "I'm too sexy for my shirt." Peace out.
Two voices from the early days of rock and roll recently passed away, Ronnie Hawkins and Bobby Rydell, who Rydell High School in Grease was named for. Could you please listen to Ronnie Hawkins sing Mary Lou (live) and I'll Never Dance Again by Bobby Rydell?
Oh yes!! As soon as I saw the thumbnail I knew I would get the LAUGHS I desperately needed today 🙏💙😹 … you guys might get a kick out of Frankie Goes to Hollywood, relax! It’s a great song, and it got tons of radio play back in the day, but that’s only because they had no idea what it was about, check it out, love you guys thanks and have a great day!✌️🌻💚
I never really thought that much about the message behind the song. I guess it really didn't matter much to me. Always enjoyed it as a fun and catchy song growing up.
There's another song that was all about modeling called "Here Comes The Hotstepper" by Ini Kamoze. Great song, strange video the one made for the Prêt-à-Porter movie.
First time listening and watching this music video. When it first came out, I heard one line on the radio and avoided it ever since. Thanks guys! One and done for me.
![American reacts to Posts That Prove American's Think That Only They Exist [part 2]](/img/n.gif)
Asia got it. It was done with the intention of being very 'tongue in cheek' roasting fashion models and idle narcissists, great reaction! :)
Back then before social media, instead of rudely announcing our displeasure with different approaches to life, people did constructive things like turn their personal frustrations into art that everyone could enjoy. It can be very cathartic to wring some joy out life by evolving a frustration into a creation.
I was going to say... I'd always believed they were making fun of the conceitedness of models. Not that the song was "about the singer" at all.
When this song came out, no one really believed they were serious.
Different era.
It's what the Brits call "Takin' the Piss" ..... Of snooty High Fashion Models!
@@s.mcpherson6354 YES!.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
Thank you.
They are the Fairbrass brothers who owned a gym in London. They would see all the posing going on by the patrons and joked about all the narcissistic behavior. The lead singer apparently took off his shirt one day and began posing and made up this song. Song became a hit.
I used to train in there gym in putney back in the day
@@angelow2749 yeah they are , didnt see them as much though as the music career had started
Yeah, total satire. Takin' a piss at all the vain people who used show up at the gym he and his brother owned. Standing in front of the mirror, worshipping themselves.
Those people never understood that this was a dig at them.
It's two brothers and it's our British sense of humour, it was just a fun song, they didn't take themselves seriously
I used to sing this to my daughter to tease her and one day in high school it came on the radio and she said “I thought you made that up!”
That's funny! I use to jokingly sing this to my mother. She never said anything, but I could see her with a slight smirk trying not to smile.
Omg so awesome
Love it #HOG FAM❤
😂😂😂😂😂Hilarious ❤
😂😂 them kids. I know what you mean. Went through that with" Jamies crying " with my neice
LOL
Makes me smile every time without fail. Play this at a bbq see how many sing along and striking poses!! Lol love it!!
Love that!
You have to do the song right said Fred by Bernard Gribbins.
@@neilgayleard3842 - Cribbins......could also do 'Hole in the Ground'...'don't dig there, dig it elsewhere, and don't dig it round when it ought to be square....' Classic !!
This band were named after a hit novelty song called “Right said Fred” by bernard cribbins from 1962….! 👍
Yes! And that song is hilarious and amazing and should be listened to! 😀

Indeed. But you couldn't expect young Americans to know that.
Don't forget they're British, like me, and we can laugh at ourselves and not take it all so seriously
And you guys have really dark Humor 🤣 love it ! And i love your country ! Greetings from germany
@Martin Well, there's plenty of material there friend, so I understand.
life was less 'sensitive', or so it seemed... lol i just love the the damn song!
@@pierreschlagenhaft7952 Stop all that racism right now!
Not lately we can’t laugh at ourselves. Thank God for Ricky Gervase 👏
This song was so big when it came out, hilarious times, we were all too sexy
They were the first UK band to reach the number one slot in the US with a debut single since The Beatles.
That is hilarious.
I can't tell you how much a hit and impact this song had on us .. we litterally walked around saying... "I'm to sexy for... (anything)...
This was huge when I first moved to NYC after college. I also remember everyone being to sexy for ______ !
@@NoCanDu a car commercial in early 2000s said "I'm too sexy for the neighbors, too sexy for the groceries, too sexy for the dry cleaning "
They were totally clowning on the fashion industry.
I like your description!
He was laughing at others who were so self-absorbed and in love with themselves! In the UK we call it 'taking the piss'! 🤣🤣
Hilarious song! It just makes you feel good to listen to. I'd go on, but I'm too sexy for this comment section.
🤣
Saw what you did there…
🫵Niiiice
Your comments were 💯 on point Asia. I remember they would play this in the gym and everyone would start dancing 😂. Watching people doing the model walk towards the wall mirrors 😂.Was one of those feel good songs. Great reaction Asia and BJ ❤️
I remember us all dancing to this at the youth club disco when it released. We'd all line up in opposite rows and do the model walk.🤦♂️😂
Great reaction guys, to a very "tongue in cheek" song. This was a no.2 hit in UK, and no.1 in USA, Australia & Canada, way back in 1991-92
They weren’t a 1 hit wonder band, their single “Deeply dippy” was a uk no.1 hit…👍
And they had a hit with "Don't talk just kiss" in between.
@@erikthompson619 erik, yes indeed.
I was just correcting a comment someone made that they were a 1 hit wonder….👍
Deeply dippy is a better song but this is a classic
The range of emotions on Asia's face is priceless!
😂😂😂
This was huge back in the day.. everybody went around singing this. It was just too much fun! I still hear someone say it every now and then and it cracks me up 🤣
This song became a big hit when it came out, purely based on the "WTF?" factor. Even if you never saw the video, the song cracks you up.
Omg i remember this. Got me baggin up 😆 what’s funny is how serious he is. I wonder how many bloopers there are from them stopping the filming cuz they couldn’t stop laughing 😂
Bassist Fred and his brother, singer Richard Fairbrass are still performing now and still look good when I saw them last year. Guitarist Rob Manzoli plays a Jimi Hendrix riff from the song 'Third Stone from the Sun' on this track
the smiles when this first started was amazing!
Asia's Reaction was priceless the sparkle in her eyes, and the I like it,but I don't want to like it smile. Love it!
This came out when my son was about 6 & he used to sing this putting his school uniform on - he went to a church school & I used to say please don't sing this at school!!.
Oh yes!! Such a fun song 🎵 And yes Asia, this was a spoof/parody making fun of models and their ego's etc. 😂🤣😂🤣
i cant be the only one that has watched this reaction multiple times just to see asias facial expressions...there awesome!
LOL so i used to be a professional wrestler and this song was my partner and i’s ring entrance music back in ‘92 lol we both wore pink spandex and pink feather boas to the ring 😬 good times!
It was sending up the modelling/fashion industries with ridiculous lyrics-the visuals were a giveaway as well, the bald guitarist had £15 stuck on his guitar.

I'm too sexy for reactions, too sexy for reactions, I'll end up in traction.
Asia with her eyes closed trying to get her words out: "Yeah he cut. He got it going on" 🤣🤣. The two of you are amazing
Asia - your face was an absolute picture throughout the whole song/video! 🤣 This was an example of British humour and our love of irony.
This song is the silly, cheeky vibe counterpart of Madonna's Vogue. With either song you are set for the runway or the nightclub.
we had a laugh in the 80's you have no idea how big this was... it made everybody laugh
2:58 is literally the happiest moment of Asia's entire life.
If you don’t do “Rico Suave” then it’s criminal. It’s in line with this. Probably did more to change mens fashion during that period then most are willing to admit. Lol
Rico Suave was to Latinos what Rocky was to Italians. #facts
Absolutely!! Also, Work It, Girl, by Ru Paul!
don’t forget hammer time! Lol errybody thought they could work those pants
Back in the day I used to go a lot to a serious heavy metal club. The place was always packed with the biggest scary looking thrash metal fans moshing HARD to the heaviest music you could get yet, every night without fail, the DJ would play this song and the place would go NUTS 🤣🤣🤣🤣 It was always hilarious seeing these big scary moshers posing around to it and god forbid, if the DJ DIDN'T play it there would be a RIOT lol it became a tradition.
Asia's reaction is priceless 🤣
Through the decades women have made several themed songs..like this one.
Back in the day it was so refreshing to see men..finally write a song like this!.
Song is all about Runway Models.
These guys were geniuses with getting their views on paper..then performing it beautifully.
♥ I'd pay good money to hear Asia cover this song. C'mon, girl.

My theme song whenever I'm out and about lol
Right said Fred was a single released in the 1960’s, a comic song about some guys delivering a piano
This is a song Zoolander would sing.

Yup it’s a spoof, a funny commentary. The two bald dudes are brothers and one of them is named Fred - “the other one” if memory serves
This was one of those one off novelty songs that became a huge international hit. Definitely a one hit wonder.
They definitely weren't a one hit wonder.
Making fun of people who think they are too sexy. It's perfect. Though, back in the day everybody became too sexy on the dance floor when this song started. It was fun.
He's making fun of models, and the whole fashion industry in general.
First time I heard this song, I hated it, but later started to love it, and still do.
Right Said Fred is the most metal band in the Universe (and probably the Universe beyond)
Great satiric piece. Samples Hendrix: Third Stone From the Sun. So did Jaco. The circle continues.
When the song came out, gay men like singer Richard Fairbrass were really getting in to working out, and were often referred to in a derogatory manner as gym bunnies (or worse). He had a clear image of himself, however, and this was a self piss-take aimed just as much at himself as it was at all the other buff guys.
This was a song making fun of models , the were twin brothers I believe and body builders.
I heard South Padre 1992 you couldn't walk 20 feet without another boombox jamming this song. It had a 2 or 3 month run but it was definitely lit during that time.
That was great, thanks for sharing this one.
Im sure this song was written for B.J. I could see BJ strutting around to this song. Nice 👍 one guys ❤️🥝🇳🇿
They played this on Married With Children when they went to England and tried on clothes 🤣
Classic song and much loved. There is a small section that sounds like something I heard before. Watching this I suddenly realised they sampled 'Dance With The Devil' by Cozy Powell! Drove me nutz.
He was goofing on the fashion industry
This song was meant to be a campy joke and not meant to be too taken seriously.
Asia's going to be singing this while getting dressed for weeks 🤣🤣
Met them on Heathrow Airport London, nicest guys you could ever hope to meet. So, so sweet and so very handsome
You were right, it was a one-and-done song for Right Said Fred. Great fun song!
They should react to ''Rumors'' Timex Social Club (I can't believe I still remember them). To me, ''Rumors'' and ''I'm Too Sexy'' went hand in hand w/ each other. They both discuss things/thoughts that occur in life but still funny to hear a song about it.
Mozart, the Beatles and then Right Said Fred. Come on. It’s a close one.
I had to share this awesome video I knew everyone would love it... I'm so thankful you guys are keeping us all smiling and reminding us life is about loving one another and being happy... every time I enjoy your channel I smile and feel the love...keep up the good work...God Bless America 🇺🇸 And may God bless all her Countrymen...
The first thing I ever noticed about this song was the "3rd Stone from the Sun" riff .
Richard Fairbrass, I've seen him on TV a few times he seems like a real down to earth person. Not that you'd think from this song lol
Right Said Fred is comprised of the buff brothers Richard and Fred Fairbrass, and at the time, guitarist Rob Manzoli.

Does anyone else notice jimi hendrix riff “third rock from the sun” riff they use in this song 🤘❤️
I never really thought that much about the message behind the song. I guess it really didn't matter much to me. Always enjoyed it as a fun and catchy song growing up.
Sounds like Techno to me reminder of the late 80's and 90's. He was talking about models on runways. Very catchy.
That little solo is taken from..third stone from sun by Jimmy Hendrix and the experience..
This song was tongue in cheek, but it became a huge hit. It was also huge at fashion shows even though it originally poked a little fun at the models.
I love watching Asia watch this video, I love that Cheshire Cat smile. You made my week Asia ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!
There's another song that was all about modeling called "Here Comes The Hotstepper" by Ini Kamoze. Great song, strange video the one made for the Prêt-à-Porter movie.
This song reminds me of ''Married w/ Children'', specifically Al (who later remarried and changed his name to Jay Pritchett)
I was singing this in the bathroom while I was shaving and then the guy in the mirror said man stop lying to yourself 🤣🤣🤣
First time listening and watching this music video. When it first came out, I heard
one line on the radio and avoided it ever since. Thanks guys! One and done for me.
