Listen to more Lush's songs here bit.ly/3aDKItn
met my wife 20+ years ago at a Lush concert at First ave in Minneapolis.......THANKS LUSH
Which approach did you use?
August 1994? If so, I was at that concert. It was the first time I visited First Ave.
@ the same time, I saw them at Lollapalooza w/Ministry & Pearl Jam.
I am Glad you have found eachother.
Haha me too.
“When he’s nice to me he’s just nice to himself and he’s watching his reflection, I’m a five foot mirror for adoring himself”
Such a good line
I always thought Miki was much taller
BARS!!
That exact part was playing when I saw this comment
@@southwestxnorthwest She is, but five foot, seven and a half inch mirror as a lyric sucks.
i believe in lush supremacy
same.
hell yeah
Yeahhh
🛐🛐
YES
One of THE great songs of the 90s. Girls with guitars - can't beat it.
So stoked to see Miki Berenyi in NY in a few weeks!!!
Love the moment at 2:00 when Emma cracks up - she realizes she's not supposed to be singing.
haha good spot!
Hah! All the times I've watched this and I never picked up on that.
Love that part too..
it took me apparently 22 years to figure it out
I watch that part over and over.
College football 25 just came out and I’ve been listening to the 2006 game’s soundtrack nonstop for months now. Shoutout to Lush ❤
Omg, I forgot about how much I loved this band! She's the reason I ever wanted cherry red hair!
hey, you're very alike her in your picture, you must be an amazing girl 🤍🤍🤍❤️❤️❤️
. yeah right . 😒
Mickey Berenyi
That was fresh back in the day but today died hair is cliched in my opinion; at least blue and green is....
Mikki's Biography is a fantastic read!
It’s 2022, I’m playing NCAA 06 for the original XBox, and this song is the first thing that comes on when booting the game up. I have turned the volume up and let the game idle. What a jam.
Just started playing ncaa football 06 and this song is good
coming to this actively playing NCAA 06 and listening to this song
@@nathanielharple7191
I'm glad people are still playing this LEGENDARY Game and equally EPIC Game!
@@mr.personal-ity I believe you meant to put 'song' somewhere there
@@NateNizzle I phrased it kind of badly😅 I should have said legendary and epic.
0:54 The actor who played Anthony Kiedis in this video just nailed it dead on! :D
This was about Anthony Kiedis, hahahaha of course! Ladykiller Lolol
In her memoir, Miki says the song was written about him ("Fingers Crossed," p. 281).
Haha, I always thought it was supposed to be him.
@@9750939Not just the 2nd verse?
It was Kiedis ! He played himself ! 😅
The actor they got to play Kiedis is perfect
do u know his name?
I remember him from several bit parts in Tv shows and movies from the 90s.
@@ziggyrose
His name is Gary Helsigner.
He was in the band Green Jello ( who sang 3 Little Pigs).
@@someguy8446 thank you
in this era of “nice guys,” we need this song more than ever
YES!! No experience with that, but the "women are superior" sales pitch always made me vomit.
Hell yes 🙌
Agreed
In this era of reagueton🤮
NCAA 06 brought me here from childhood nostalgia. Now that I'm a man I come back and read the lyrics and realize my subconscious was entrained well
Had the pleasure of working electric & lighting on this all night, inside the Hollywood American Legion back in 1996. Love to work with these ladykillers again.
Enco we did the casting! That was such a cool shoot. Great work Enco!
Good job, it’s certainly stroborific!
I was so lucky to be in my 20's during the 1990's.
fodsaks , me too. Kids don't know. I know and you know and you know what? That's okay.
it's always good to be in your 20's, no matter what era.
Ditto
I reached the 20s in 1993. I would never give up those memories for anything!!
Same
You're nothing special until you turn off the lights!! That's cold blooded right there
His penis glowed in the dark tho
Most guys would consider this an enormous compliment and be thrilled if this was the only way a woman remembered them. "He was an arrogant twat but my God he was amazing in bed." From a guy's perspective, it's definitely, not the insult people think it is.
@@Aiphiae I can confirm as a guy. I don't want to be remembered for my personality after I hit it and quit it.
@@laobok aha ha 😂😂😂
She’s nothing special when she takes of her make up and her atrocious, tacky 90s clothes..🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gods I miss music like this.
I love the bit after “oh god, the boy had such an ego”, Emma gets something wrong and laughs. My favourite track on the album
RHCP were playing across town the night I saw Lush in 1996, so Miki dedicated the song to them
As a dig. Some of the ugliest band members alive, keedis and flee
@@donaldjz Anthony is literally not ugly at all, lmao
0:43 is an Anthony clone. On purpose I'd suppose.
She said he was trying to put the moves on her and she was not impressed. Miki also said this isn't an anti male song, it's about him. He must have been a real dick.
Heard this recently on the radio and had forgotten how much I loved it.
This song brings me memories of the time when I used to be very depressed and ill. I used to have several penfriends and one of them, an English girl, used to send me cassettes with her favourite music. That's how I discovered this song (I'm Spanish). I spent several days in hospital listening to those songs, but I used to play this one several times. Reminds me of those days, that time and some of my partners being in hospital 🥺
This is so cute! 🥺 hope you're doing well today :)
@@dilfwatcher thank you, dear Laura. No, 23 years later, I'm not feeling that well. I think that depressions go with you for the rest of your life 🥺 Anyway, you were so nice to ask me! Big Hug 🤗🤗🤗🤗
@@cristinap.morais6878 Big hug to you too!! I'm so proud of you. You are very strong! It can be hard sometimes and I cant say I know how you feel but know that you're definitely not alone! Never feel bad to talk to someone about it! Even though maybe it feels like there's no light at the end, I hope there's gonna be a lot of bursts of light in your journey to help you
@@dilfwatcher Laura, I don't know you, because, unfortunately, we may be in different countries, and this is UA-cam, but your soooo nice words are kept in my ❤️ whenever I feel down, I'll come to listen to the song and read your messsage.
I still remember my bed at hospital, and I became a friend of one of the boys, we lived very close to each other, so I told him we would recover and we would br friends when we were out. He promised me to stop taking drugs or even "legal" medicines and I got soooo happy. 2 years later he died of a heroin overdose
Life can be so hard too many times
But we must be strong and hold on till the end
Thank you very much for your kind words. I'm sure you must be an AMAZING girl
Big Hug to you, too
Kind regards from Spain 💗💗💗💗💗
Penfriends! wow, we are old enough to remember
We cast this video! I remember bringing over lots of wardrobe to the set at The American Legion Hall. Such a great song, such a great era.
Bless you Director Marc Pellington!
It was shot in the US? Wow, I never would've guessed. I guess they were touring at the same time.
This song was on a re- run of Top of the Pops tonight, I forgot how brilliant this is. Rock on Lush!❤
Man, I haven't heard this song in about 20 years. Thank you, UA-cam.
This was my jam back in the day. I used to blast it on my cassette player and dance around the bathroom singing into my hairbrush.
I LOVE this video! Miki's attitude and expressions are priceless!!!
this is like finding gold
All those 71 dislikes were from Anthony Kiedis
Was that really him?
Nope the song was written about him
J C can’t really tell from the video. 😕
And who's the blonde guy? Michael Bolton? 😆
@@Room-xi6nb matt sharp from weezer
The best of alternative girl bands. These chics really rocked man, they are a lot better than some of the girl singers out there today. The 90's were my decade.
Cecilia Lozano what about the donnas
For me its the Breeders, Throwing Muses or Elastica, but Lush are up there too.
Can't go wrong w/any of them & L7 also
I’d put Belly, The Breeders, Veruca Salt, and Juliana Hatfield above them. Not an insult to Lush at all though.
It is not a girl band just because the front member is a girl lmao
Absolute peak of the music
i discovered Lush this year thanks to my friends dad, and i'm obsessed. they're an amazing band, and miki is my role model and inspiration - this exact video always inspires me to do something creative as an artist and i love it
she is ROCKING that cherry red hair!!!! tempted to dye it red myself x)
Music is what's important. But....yeah, Miki so fetching :) .
One of my friends just showed me this band last week. I was like where the hell have I been. She's fine AF and talented AF
I remember finding this entire album at a dollar store in Arizona back in 2008. best find ever, I couldn't believe it! just wish i didn't lose all my cds in a fire. of all things...i mourned my cd's over childhood photos lost. I had GEMS that were underrated tell now.
It sucks to lose something so personal! I also wish I still had my CDs! I just gave them all to a charity shop or something when I got an iPod in around 2005, and although I did burn them all onto iTunes beforehand its still a shame I don’t have them anymore. I have one cd that survived because I forgot to take it out of my player and that’s it!
I fekkin love this band!! Lush is one of the best 90s bands, there's no band quite like them. Also, I love Miki.
Love this song. Favourite bit in the video is Emma cracking up at around the two minute mark. Great!
This song is too many levels of amazing, never mind being still 100% relevant now.
These lyrics...like wow!
Good lord, this is better than 99% of anything coming out now. Not a big fan of Lush, but this has always been a banger. Definitely part of the soundtrack of my 20s.
Lyrics:
Here we go, I'm hanging out in Camden
Drinking with my girlfriends on a Saturday night
This guy says, "Come and meet my girlfriend"
She's sitting in the corner looking rather uptight
So I say "Hello" and I try to be nice
But I see he's feeling itchy
Trying to play us off each other
"Girls, girls, please don't fight" (you get the picture)
Hey you, the muscles and the long hair
Telling me that women are superior to men
Most guys just don't appreciate this
You just try convincing me you're better than them
So he talks for hours about his sensitive soul
And his favorite subject is sex
I don't even think he really wanted it
But, Christ this guy's too much (I want to tell him)
I'm as human as the next girl
I like a bit of flattery
But I don't need your practiced lines
Your school of charm mentality so
Save your breath for someone else and credit me with something more
When it comes to men like you
I know the score
I've heard it all before
(Here comes the next one)
Blondie was with me for a summer
He flirted like a maniac but I wouldn't bite
I'm weak and he was so persistent
He only had to have me 'cause I put up a fight
Oh God, the boy had such an ego
He liked to talk about himself all day and all night
You think you're such a ladykiller
But you were nothing special 'til you turned out the light
When he's nice to me he's just nice to himself
And he's watching his reflection
I'm a five foot mirror for adoring himself
Here's seven years bad luck (I want to tell him)
When you say you love me you're just flattering your vanity
But I don't need your practiced lines
Your school of charm mentality so
Save your breath for someone else and credit me with something more
When it comes to men like you
I know the score
I've heard it all before
Ooh, you're such a ladykiller
Always on a winner, thinking that you're in there
Oh boy, you're such a ladykiller
Super sexy mister, call it what you will, oh
You think you're such a lady killer
I just bet you're still there, posing in the mirror
Hey girls, he's such a ladykiller
But we know where he's coming from and we know the score
The 2nd verse("Hey you, the muscles and the long hair") is about Anthony Kiedis. I knew he was a creep.
Only just came across this track when watching a repeat of top of the pops. It was the stand out performance. Love it, 😊
This is one of those songs that I've carried over from tape , then cd, iPod and now Amazon playlist it's timeless song by a severally underrated band ❣️❣️
Just pure 90s goodness 💜
This was my Spotify wrapped #1 song of 2021
NCAA 2006 brought me here, I looked for this song for years😂😂🤦🏽♂️
Forget Tony Hawk, best sports game soundtrack by a MILE.
Dannon McKnight such a weird song for a football game but it stuck with me also 😂
That soundtrack is so fucking fire
Hell yea but I found it easy lol
Amazing soundtrack.
I love this song. I heard it on a New Orleans local alter-rock radio station...soon after got the cd for this song! Me and my friends would chill in the park in the summer time smoking and jamming to this song. Great memories!
Must’ve been 106.1 The Zephyr or 91.5 WTUL, with the more corporate 106.7 The End an outlier
Haven't seen this video in years but the muscles and the long hair bit immediately made me think of Kiedis. I love RHCP but lol, shots fired!
Oh my Lord! I have been trying to remember who sang this song for years! Thrilled I finally figured out!
Great, great song!
My first ever live gig was to see Lush at Northampton Roadmenders Club in the early 90s. Awesome memories and much respect!!! Though I've seen so many bands since I have really fond memories of the band and particularly that gig. Thank you for the better times Lush.
This is a great song honestly
In hindsight, this song taught me how to treat a lady properly
Are you a "ladykiller"??? 😂
@@cristinap.morais6878 Well, not like the guys that song is about. Also, not a homicidal maniac.
@@saucywalnutz great! I'm glad that you decided to treat ladies properly ❤️🤍
@@cristinap.morais6878 Thank you! I have a stupid guy brain so I've made some mistakes (never cheating, usually by stupid choice of words and immaturity) but I think I'm growing up finally and Lush is a big inspiration for me. Then again, Steel Panther is also one of my inspirations, so you can take the tiger out of the jungle, but... you know ha ha
@@saucywalnutz it's great to know when a boy decides to change and become a good guy for girls, or...for HIS ONLY girl. That's mature, yes!
I've been cheated on several occasions, and it HURTS. I would have preferred to have been left before they cheated on me 😭💔
How old are you, btw?
LYRICS are on point about most men . Love u LUSH
You’ve been involved with a lot of men, which is a bit slutty.. I reread your comment and you said ‘most men’🤣🤣🤣 get tested..
Still a banger in 2019.
2021* baby
2022* bruh
2023
still a banger in 2024
always will be!!
Still in love with Miki,after all those years...
I first heard this song on NCAA Football 06. This song is making me seriously consider checking out more of their work when I have some free time.
We get the pictcha!!
"Christ this guy's too much" really got me.
“Your school of charm mentality” sounds like Alex James...
yeah that guy sucks
@@andrealiee omg why
@@souvlaki7472 He’s a Tory, but specifically he bit Miki’s ass on one occasion as a tease, which of course she did not like.
This song is big on my soundtrack of the 90s, and it still holds up now.
I love this song! I can't stop listening to it!
I never knew this was a Lush song. I haven’t thought about it in probably 20 years.
In 1996, I purchased NOW 33. This song was on it. 27 (ish) years later I still love this song.
a wonderful band, hope more ppl can listen to them
Met my wife at a Lush concert.
Man, this song kicks bloody arse!!!
Love the NCAA 06 references!! Keep them coming!!
ADORO esta canción💥💥💥!!!
***Gran crítica & melodía...***
Man, I can close my eyes and I can hear this booming out from the PA at 1st Ave in Minneapolis on a Danceteria night in 1997. Feels like yesterday.
Love the venom at 3:00. You tell em girls.
This video leaves no doubt who it’s about!
NCAA football used this song about 15 years ago…Nice one!
I just remember this being the song on after 'Tequila' on an old compilation cassette when I was a youth. Only just remembered it and remembered now why i loved it.
And all my love for Lush started surfing around youtube.
Haha they even got a dude who looks like Anthony Kiedis.
he was based on anthony
Interesting didn't know that....lol
yeah i heard that in an interview miki did and she also said the bassist from blur bit her ass thinking she liked it but she didnt
it's not Anthony lol, that part of the song is about one time when Anthony trying to hit on her in a bar. That guy's too hairy to actually be Anthony.
I feel like it looks more like Shawn Michaels but they got the point across lol
Thank Yellowjackets for reminding me of this gem!
Great memories seeing Lush in mid 90s
2022 and still listening to this song every day on my amazon Playlist...love it pure genius
I met a boy older than me who said he was sensitive, he had a special perception about women telling me that it was not necessary for me to wax because he was very feminist, his favorite subject was "sex" and he believed himself better than the others disguising him as humility, when I met him thoroughly he asked me to wax because in reality he was disgusted, he wanted a polygynous relationship because sex was primordial and no good with one girl , he doesn’t know how damage made with his commentaries, he felt like a ladykiller
"met him thoroughly"?? 😏👀
such a fun song and a great music video. brilliant band :)
One of the best music videos ever
😊 haven't heard it for years... Brilliant 😊😊😊
THEY ARE BACK!!!
+Manabu Matthew I've just found out!!! Brilliant!!
I'm behind the times! I just found out today. LOL! I'm thrilled!
Thomas DeClue HOORAY FOR LUSH! OO-RAH!
Lush not bad at all .
..and almost just as quickly, they are gone again. :-(
BEAUTIFUL
Love this band so much
I can't believe people dont like this album
Love this song even in 2022!
YESS THEYRE BACK ON TOUR !!!
my mom is really lucky. she's early 20's when these bands is really big. and i think she dyed her hair red since the 90's because Miki
(sorry if my english is really bad)
she was talking her shit! good for her!
had a seizure watching this but it was worth it
I was in college in the early '90s and it is so hard to listen to music from that era, even from my "favorite bands", because it mostly just brings back feelings of naivety, heartbreak, lost friends, lost youth, etc. but THIS song is timeless and literally sounds fresh all the time. Funny how that works.
absolutely timeless
NCAA Football 06: Race for the Heisman
"You think you're God's gift to women but I'm here to set you straight Mister"
Omg I ve still got the cd years later loved this
Great song. 😊
Love this and the album was definitely 🔥🔥
How the hell did i miss this 1 back in '96😂😂😂😂!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
How have I missed this...
The 90s were so much better than what we get today.
THIS SONG IS SO GOOD!
F it! I had a blast!
GenX (1977-Prsnt)
Lady killers
Love it, reminds me of being on the pull in the 90's, the song sums a girls' perspective up so much, it's spot on!
