Tony Hawks singing Girlfriend in a Coma to the tune of Tiptoe Through the Tulips. I've haven't laughed so hard in a long time.
I remember hearing it as it went out for the first ever time when driving! I had to stop as i was crying with laughter! Pure genius!
It is brilliant. Rachel Parris was excellent too.
Who knew that Whiter Shade of Pale was so versatile?
Or the Muppet Show theme!
Girlfriend in a coma wins every time. Had me in hysterics, as so many of them do, but I can't help but laugh every time I think about it. It's the "OH" that kills me 👌👌
Didn't Tim also have to sing "Girlfriend in a Coma" to the tune of "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" on one episode?
There's so much to like, it's Linda Smith hands down though, why is hard to explain, she's just a pure joy.
It's a classic
She sounds like shes having a ball
1:20 Linda singing Psycho Killer is just superb. Colin Sell relentlessly going on at the piano too - brilliant.
Some of the best of the “one song to the tune of another” here. David Mitchell nearly giving himself a hernia; Linda Smith giving it all she’s got and giggling away to herself into the bargain.
It’s one show where comedians seem to genuinely enjoy being there.
I’m just waiting for them to get someone to sing the Johnathan King classic “Una Poloma Blanca” to the tune of “I’m just a cider drinker” by the Wurzels
RIP Barry Cryer, such a talented gentleman
And the late great Linda Smith
Both sadly missed.
And Jeremy.... what a lovely man
One Song to the Tune of Another is the closest thing I've seen to proof of a benevolent deity
I like to think of it as proof of evolution
I love how Humph and Jack could get so much extra laughter by just adding "Never mind" 😂
I was at the online recording of the Rachel Parris one, I knew she could sing but that was 💯
"Hurt" to the tune of "Singing in the Rain " was unexpectedly heart-wrenching! Well done, Andy Hamilton!
Apparently Clue had been recently voted for as the best comedy show ever broadcast. Not arguing with that... glorious... all of it
Every show was great! And it IS the funniest show of all, radio, telly, whatever - no competition!
Definitely. The funniest radio show ever.
Hard to remember the original tunes after hearing these
This has made my week - so many glories here, and especially lovely to hear Linda Smith again. I think Jeremy Hardy's unique gifts were better displayed in Pick Up Song.
It really brings home the banality of some of the lyrics! RIP those wonderful previous cast members of the show Willie, Tim, Barry, Jeremy, Linda and of course Humph. who brought us so much joy and merriment especially on long car journeys. On several occasions, I nearly pranged my car I was laughing so much.
Rachel Parris has a great voice, brilliant. :)
I love both her and Pippa Evans, they are really funny on the rest of the show too.
Been trying to find the Anarchy in the UK one for ages!! So bloody good, Brydon is a genius
Just spent half an hour listening to this. Now dinner's ready.
You hadn't had your tea then.?
I had no idea Bryson sang That well. I knew he sang, but Delilah was way better than I realized.
He certainly has theWelsh singing gene - Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey, Katherine Jenkins, Charlotte Church and the late Harry Secombe to name just a few... there's music in those valleys!
So now we just need "The Complete Jeremy Hardy"
Oh yes, Jeremy had a divine gift!

the old ones are the best, Willi Rushton was the king of one song to the tune of another. The whiter shade of pale song here and the guess the barcode is what got me into ISIHAC!!!
The Rachel Parris one is brilliant though.
So was Caroline Quentin! Very impressed!
She holds a 2:1 in music from Oxford 🙂
Had me in stitches! 🤣
Well done Rory Bremner.
"Nice try Rob" 😂
I remember the Linda Smith one (Psycho Killer), brilliant :D
Some of these are actually better than the originals. :)
I'd also add Willie Rushton's rendition of 'Great Balls of Fire' to the tune of 'The Blue Danube'.
Indeed. The ones which sound ridiculous are funny, but the best ones are those which sound better than the originals.
Thanks for uploading this! My absolute favourite One song to the tune of another was when Graeme Garden sang 'Milkshake' by Kelise to 'The Queen's Navy' from HMS Pinafore. If you haven't heard it, do seek it out. It's brilliant.
Okay, now I need a link, because I cannot find it.
What a fantastic one to finish on. I don't think I'd ever heard it before; sensational stuff. Look to your laurels, Rob Brydon.
Songs for the Quiz
Girlfriend in a coma 3:22
Anarchy in UK 6:34
Don't like Mondays 10:58
Relax 24:33
Dustman 25:49
The one I've been having trouble finding was a brilliant rendition of My Old Man's a Dustman being done to the tune of Heartbreak Hotel
Great collection, but I'm surprised there's no version of "The Marrow Song"! That used to be a popular choice for the teams to sing some years ago. I remember a particularly good version from Barry, singing it to the tune of "There'll Always Be An England" (it fits just as well as "The Laughing Policeman" did, which says something about the versatility of that tune, perhaps!) - from S39E05 in June 2002.
From the same episode, Graeme singing "YMCA" to "We'll Gather Lilacs" and Bill Bailey singing "Run Rabbit Run" to "Stormy Weather" were good too.
Another favourite of mine was Graeme singing "The Teddy Bear's Picnic" to the tune of "She" (complete with cod-French accent in imitation of Charles Aznavour) from another of the 2002 shows.
I hope that you have more of these.
Jeremy Harding was the finest singer ever to perform on ISIHAC, he's much missed. I agree that he should have his own entry.
Absolutely, his Bob Dylan voice was hysterically accurate.
My absolute favourite. I was so sad when he died
Hardy. Not Harding
Also, that would be Miles Jupp.
This round may have its roots in Bill Oddie singing Oh I do like to be beside the Seaside to the tune of A Whiter Shade of Pale on I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again...
The Hurt cover made me laugh before it even started. Holy crap what an idea.
The cover of a cover that nobody was expecting.
Im crying this so friggin funny. Pure genius
Really want a "sing-off" between Rob and Tony
RIP Tim 😢
I love I' m sorry I haven't a clue. It's so funny.
Surely the greatest ever was Willy's rendition of "Where did you get that hat" to the tune of the Dambusters March
To be or not to be from Hamlet to the tune of A you're adorable
YES!!!!!
With sound effects added by the other panellists. Unforgettable!
I remember the combination, but I thought it was Tim that sang it?
My two absolute favourites: Whiter Shade of Pale to the tune of The Muppets - the words fit perfectly! And I Don’t Like Mondays to the tune of I Want To Be Like You.
I don’t know who thinks of these, but some are truly inspired!
ISIHAC is the funniest show anywhere!
Thanks for posting all these.
Miles Jupp I tawt I taw a putty tat is pure genius.
They're all amazing
Anyone trying to explain what comedy is has the perfect model of why juxtaposing the serious and grandiose with the low brow and trivial is just bloody hilarious .
However it all depends entirely on knowing the cultural references .
So much fun, love David mitchels
Just started listening, hope that blame it on the boogie to the tune of the battle hymn of the Republic is here. Also stand by me to the tune of the William tell overture.
Hurt was by Nine Inch Nails, Johnny Cash covered it
This show was first broadcast April 11th 1972. Emmerdale Farm also started that year in October. Also Last of the summer wine started that year. I was born that year.
Thanks for these uploads. Isihac is like a big bowl of creamy mashed potatoes...
Comfort food for the ears
Anarchy in the UK to Just When I needed you most was actually really pretty! 🤣
love Andy Hamilton’s Hurt, and David Mitchell’s Whiter Shade of Pale, but where where where was Jo Brand doing I kissed a Girl to Old Man River!!
The best of all time was Jack Dee doing "Purple Haze" to the tune of Brahms' Lullaby
For me the best is always when the other panellists and the audience join in :-D ... Like Rob and Delilah
3:22 Denis King on piano, filling in for Colin Sell.
Leaving myself a reminder for 5:18
Has anyone ever done the lyrics to "Amazing Grace" to the tune of the theme from "Gilligan's Island" or vice versa? That one I learned years ago and still remember it.
22:00 Now sing the tune of House of the Rising Sun with the lyrics of Gilligan's Island
I wish I could find Tony Hawks singing Run Rabbit Run to the tune of The girl from Ipanema.
Karma Police to the tune of when I'm cleaning windows
I’m just waiting for them to get someone to sing the Johnathan King classic “Una Poloma Blanca” to the tune of “I’m just a cider drinker” by the Wurzels
I do remember once they had I Am A Cider Drinker to the tune of Ode To Joy, and all the panellists joining in for the "oo arr oo arr ay". It was magnificent!
Hurt to the tune of Singing In The Rain! 😂
Rachel Parris 👏 👏 👏
My favourites are psycho killer and the hurt one
The power of the dustman lol
I'm not sure if that rendition of "Hurt" is amusing or even more disturbing...
It's like if Nine Inch Nails had a serious breakdown before going on stage.
i don't like mondays was a good one!
The lords my sheaperd to the old coca cola tune, ide like to teach the world to sing😊
Welp, now we know where Bill Bailey gets it from...😂
The Laughing Policeman to the tune of There Will Always Be An England … how prescient?
Me when I know nearly none of these songs
I find it very hard to take Ode to Joy seriously now!!! Gangnam Style works!!!
It's so funny...wait..."Hurt" by Johnny Cash? o_O
Rob Brydon is rather good here & Tim Brooke Taylor shows he has had a good musical education sometime.
Is there a compliations of the rules of this, please?
It's I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue - there aren't rules really!
@@Knappa22 they are announced in explaination every time its played, hence the interest in seeing the variational explainations of them over the years
Been looping this for the past few days and I have no comment except
Ha ha ha ha, ha-ha-ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ho, ho ho ha ha, ha ha ha ha!
(12:35)
where's the master of Singing the late great Jeremy Hardy
In a league of his own lol.
13:28 if there's anyone who speaks Korean I would be very interested to know if this is either accurate, offensive, confusing, or all 3.
Ditto
19:08 Would it have killed you to credit Nine Inch Nails (facepalm)
not you ISIHA Clue, the guys :)
Rachel Parris was actually too good for this round.
John Lennon's Imagine sounds way less nihilistic when set to the Muppet Show Theme. Just shows you the power a good tune to pull along mediocre lyrics.
Surely there is one Jeremy Hardy worthy of inclusion?
Not really for us Americans, I'm afraid. Different sense of humor.
Speak for yourself!
This is youtube, not America…
