"Perverted By Language" is an illuminating insight into Mark E. Smith, see him in the pub, at the football ground and jiving at the Hacienda. The film features both interviews with Mark and promo videos for many of the bands genre bending singles from the early part of their career, including Indie Chart top five singles "Totally Wired", "The Man Whose Head Expanded" and "Kicker Conspiracy".

At the height of their power, no one could touch these cats. The Mighty Fall.
16 December 2018. Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as the Fall and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you from Sicily.
Cheers Mate.....🇮🇲👍🇮🇲
fall 4 evah!
He is right up there with the greatest poets of all time. His achievements are enormous and seem to be hitting me harder now.
Spenser T he was one of a very some number of punks who didn’t change
Jamie Spenser Thompson He was just a well read punk peasant
As a Dylan fan, I agree with you! Needs recognition
truth
British Bob Dylan
I’d like to dedicate this to my best friend of 40 years Chic Agnew who had this played at his funeral recently.
got these tattooed down my arm....amazing band...your mate had amazing taste x
*The Fall - the Greatest. I love every line up, and their (40?) albums are fuckin fenomenal!* THNX Mark!!!
Saw them at the Pandoras Box Festival in Rotterdam mid 80s two perfect days ☠️💣☠️
Anybody who watched English league football in the 1980s gets this song. Basically the problems with the game are still there. Owners who treat the fans like shit, the stupid blazers in the FA and talented English players being overlooked and marginalised by stupid England managers.
Mostly media bigging up players, which gives them baggage to carry on the pitch
Ah that Burns Hanley Hanley (BH²) rhythm section. Never bettered in any line up.
BH² sounds like MES that✌️
"Please keep off the pitch! The Ground staff have spent many a year
pruning the edges. And EVERY blade of grass holds a special place in
their hearts... To stamp on them is to break them." - David Sheepshanks, Chairman of the St George's Park National Football Centre
Shags sheep
They were so fucking good through these years - one of the all time great groups imo
We even heard it in America. KFJC Los Altos Hills. Near Stanford.
Hell yeah dude. Greetings from South Texas!
read THE BIG MIDWEEK by Steve Hanley!
incredible
Would love to hear his take on VAR
When it came out this song was a decade ahead of its time.
now its 2 decades!
Never a truer word from the psychic visionary
" Their guest is a Euro state magnates / Corporate-u-lent..."
Mark E's futuro-vision. Again !
This promo was directed by the late Claude “Kickboy Face” Bessy. If you know, you know.
Classic!
All he said was classic and you have issues.
Great tune!
RIP MARK
This is MY anthem for 2014 World Cup!
this song gets stuck in my head when discussing football
In 500 years he will be as revered as Shakespeare is now.
In 200 years there'll be nothing but broken toilets on Earth.
No not 500 years time. But as Ben Johnson said of Shakespeare 'He was not of an age, but for all time!
@@minutegongcoughs yesh
and willie did not have a band or a youtube account!
@@minutegongcoughs the sprinter, that's fkn sound
R.I.P. M.E.S.
This beauty was not on Perverted By Language but lead track on a double single. Yeah, I know- "too much attention to the wrong detail".
Obsolete units etc.
The "Perverted by Language" in the title refers to the VHS of the same name that was released with this music video on it
You'll never take The Longside!
I used to enjoy this alot on Wbny, had no idea waht its about then or now...
football violence !!!!!!
@@smegessmith football ....the business of ......not the game
RIP Mark.
I’ve only been listening to The Fall a year. I’ve never been able to figure out in all that time who the guy to the right of MES in the press box is? The guy on the phone?
Richard Thomas
Under marbled Millichip-uh, the F.A. broods!
“How flair is punished!” Still resonates today.
Also the “FANS!”, absolutely amazing btw.
RIP Mark.
Is this about George Best and his work with The Beatles?
I never realised Smith was a football fan but this isn't his first football related song.
He's working class he doesn't sing about tennis
this is catchy
FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANS!!!! RIP THE MAN!!!!!
William Ford Gibson talks about this great song))
I do believe this was 1983 (not 1982)
I’ve been a Fall fan for years and I still haven’t worked out who the female in the stand is? She’s sat between Karl Burns & Brix.
Brix-guitar, Mrs. Smith?
To Brix’s right?
Whose ground is that? anyone know? I love how English grounds looked back in the 70s/80s. Absolutely dripping with atmosphere and personality. Wish it still looked like that. Football grounds are way too corporate, way too family friendly and clean. They all look the same now. I wish i had been around during this period. i was born in the wrong generation lol.
Turf Moor.
There were downsides as well, e.g. as a teenager I remember half-bricks raining down on us in the uncovered away end at Chelsea
@@michaellea3529 Lol, yea. I can imagine. Ive seen footage of some of those old matches where things turned ugly. The ups and downs are what make that period so fascinating tho.
signoguns Absolutely mate, I agree
Bury
Anyone know what ground this video was filmed in??
burnley
Turf Moor, Burnley
Its Burnleys ground -Turf Moor
A song for jack grealish . The hip priest . For these times
Ha! Getting kicked week in week out. UTV!
What Jackie!
Had in his hands two laget cans
Where is Leighton James?
Fans…. remember!
2:36 🙂
1:31 Is that the German national team?
As an American this is my ideal
Classic nose pick at 2:50
is that Kay Carroll sitting next to Brix at 3.30?
No, Kay was gone by then. It's Steve Hanley's wife Heather.
Keep Burnley Tidy
Anybody know Paul Fletcher??? What's he like???
We used to have some fun in the long end did us Bolton
Burnden Paddock like when you ran on pitch and got toed / ran straight back off it ..??
Post punk masterpiece
smithy had a mullet smithy had a mullet
la la la la - la la la la
MES prophetic as ever with his musings on the gentrification of football. I wonder what he’d make of Man City now….
Hot dog and seat for Mr Hogg! And his grotty spawn!
The 12 people who dislike this need to be strongly remonstrated with!
What Team mark fan?
manchester city i think
utd
Which football ground is that?
turf moor
Thanks
Press only
Nephew? What nephew?
Lwi gang let’s get this bread

Fuck man, THAT is a beautiful pose! Go ahead and call me a nazi or whatever I don't give a shit!
