Ben Lee is a fucking legend. My friend Rhett and I used to smoke tons of weed and listen to this guy rip. Music has never been the same since. Thanks for everything Ben!
You throw me in a pan You cook me in a can You stretch me with your hands You love to watch me bake You serve me up with cake And that's your big mistake Your guest comes in dressed smart You offer a la carte You didn't have the heart And I want a TV embrace And I, I'm getting off your boiling plate They swore you'd steal my steam To feed your dream And then be gone I wish I could say that everyone was wrong You left me burned and seared You left me ripped and teared And older than my years I should have know at first That you would leave me hurt You had to try dessert No way to let off steam Don't bother milk or cream No way to let off steam And I want a TV embrace And I, I'm getting off this boiling plate They swore you'd steal my steam To feed your dream And then be gone I wish I could say that everyone was wrong It must feel good to stand above me While I make you so proud of me It must feel good that I'm now gone I wish I could say that everyone was wrong I wish everyone was wrong I wish everyone was wrong I wish everyone was wrong I wish everyone was wrong I wish everyone was wrong
I teared up a little myself watching / listening to it earlier today. Its just empowering and vulnerable at the same time, but for me its the film clip that makes the song. It sure is getting me through a lot of shit, I'll have to check out the rest of the album now
Got to hear this live last weekend in Penguin, Tasmania. Gotta say Ben Lee's voice has aged like a fine wine... if it's this good when he was young, it's intoxicating now.
*At the start of this song it's so great to see New York before 9/11. Everyone is happy and friendly with each other. The day 9/11 happened really did change the world 🌎 and in a very bad way. It's never been the same since and is only going to get worse over time. Very sad indeed.😕*
Love this song, and so many other Ben Lee tunes. How come it took so long for the video to appear on his channel? Was searching for this 12 months ago and couldn't find it anywhere!
This video was taken down(in Australia at that!) and was unavailable for sometime before eventually being posted again. As the previous commenter noted, there are other uploads of this particular song but unless there was a copyright issue, I never understood the reason for removing this (official video) in the first place.
Somehow, with lyrics that almost sound like a "Weird Al"-style food parody of a song, and the indelible image of a ghost child enjoying multiple plates of spaghetti, this song & video persist in moving us, a full quarter of a century later. We're all in this together, and we can't all be wrong. Thank you, ghosty, for the disease.

Every few years a come back to this amazing song. Best Ben Lee Song ever. 🎵. I watched a Aussie movie recently called (crackerjack) and this song was played. I never felt more proud in my life to be Australian 🇦🇺

3:02 the girl on the bike looks really familiar. Can't place her.. but definitely familiar Arrggh hate it when that happens. Cool song. Takes me right back.

A classic. I miss morning music video shows here in Australia. I used to get up early to watch Saturday Disney and video hits.
I miss being in a young body and having rose coloured glasses of the world
Rage was on earlier than video hits remember getting up by 5 on the weekend to catch it
@@randomstuff797 that was me as a kid, 5am to watch rage 🤣🤣
5am rage, then switch over to video hits at 9am
@@celebritytributes yep 🤣 same here
Video hits and agro
Beautiful Man and Music. Thanks Ben ❤
The first Ben Lee song I ever heard, seems like a lifetime ago...💕

Love this song damn music has changed so much where's the stories and the feelings in songs
You throw me in a pan
You cook me in a can
You stretch me with your hands
You love to watch me bake
You serve me up with cake
And that's your big mistake
Your guest comes in dressed smart
You offer a la carte
You didn't have the heart
And I want a TV embrace
And I, I'm getting off your boiling plate
They swore you'd steal my steam
To feed your dream
And then be gone
I wish I could say that everyone was wrong
You left me burned and seared
You left me ripped and teared
And older than my years
I should have know at first
That you would leave me hurt
You had to try dessert
No way to let off steam
Don't bother milk or cream
No way to let off steam
And I want a TV embrace
And I, I'm getting off this boiling plate
They swore you'd steal my steam
To feed your dream
And then be gone
I wish I could say that everyone was wrong
It must feel good to stand above me
While I make you so proud of me
It must feel good that I'm now gone
I wish I could say that everyone was wrong
I wish everyone was wrong
I wish everyone was wrong
I wish everyone was wrong
I wish everyone was wrong
I wish everyone was wrong
What a banger, haven't heard this in yeaaars.
Phenomenal song. This album got me through a LOT of shit..... Love Ben, and this song made me cry (in 2021, realising how far I've come).

What a classic talented artists very down to earth guy also
One of the most underrated, highly-prized classics of the late 90s.

Such a great Australian artist - Ben Was and still Still is one of my most favourite artist. Just so damn raw and honest.
Damn so much nostalgia for this album and period of time
So hurt. Beautiful song.
Beautiful song, powerful
Great song. Where do I find lyrics?

When people could get along a bit better.
Takes me back when I first seen the film clip on a cable music channel and Triple J had been playing it all week. I remember thinking what hell is that black eyed demon kid thing on my tv! Is that where the inspiration for the Grudge character’s came from?
Me es imposible no relacionar esta canción con el Flash Sim Date de Love Hina
This is a great song. Love vocals and instruments.. timeless classic.
Such a great song and video :)
3:02 the girl on the bike looks really familiar. Can't place her.. but definitely familiar
Arrggh hate it when that happens.
Cool song. Takes me right back.
I cant believe this was 23 years ago already...
Why hurt my feelings like that! I just came here to enjoy a song! Lol
@@lukeb8414 lol I know what you mean
Love hina rpg
2023 and I still like it!
Who is here from Allday?
Bad take
Think his version not bad. Bringing a whole new audience to the original.
Loved it before allday ,he reminded me though
No. lol.
I loved Allday's version, and the original. It's good to be reminded of good songs through new takes. I don't understand the hate
Strong
I’m here from TikTok, on the back of Ben’s feud with the wiggles. I was 14 when this song came out. He seemed older than me then. He still is. Weird.
Love Hina Sim Date . 💗💗
there was in a old tv series with young Chris Evans "Opposite Sex" (2000)

Love Hina Sim Date
IS THAT JAMES LUCAS CLAPPING FRONT ROW?❤
Only thing wrong with this song is he said "I wish everyone was wrong.". Bruh everyone is wrong.
Love Hina?
Was hoping the music video would be in Australia. Why is it Aussies have to go to America to be successful.
ermmmm is this a yabujin reference???
