I've just spent the best part of half an hour tracking this down. I thought it was a memory of a late 70s punk cover I was chasing - but no. Can stop now... hurrah! Oddly this the version I hear in my head when I sing the song ... I like the bang, bang "oy" bit ... will go and lie down now.
Vic very slightly channeling Jim Morrison with the outfit :-/ At the very end, a slight glimpse of the rarely spotted Channel 4 Glastonbury graphics. Nice. I love it.
Forget Mortimer in his Engelbert Humperdinck shirt , and reeves looking like he's at a funeral , with all those Roy Orbison lookalikes , in the band , ... you've gotta admit , that is the rolling stones and the cockney rejects , and cock sparra all in one .
back then everyone thought Vic was a god and Bob was his straight man, not anymore. by far the funny by far, he just seemed to be happy being Vic shadow back then

That oi makes it so much better!
Only the British would add the 'oi!' into a song and still make it sound cool.
Agreed.
Thanks for posting! I loved this. The cd single extra tracks were brilliant...Mulligan & O'Hare's Rose plus The Donkey Song :D

they are putting some real pop stars to shame by performing live lol
All credit Vic Reeves/Jim Moir can certainly sing and is confident fronting the band.
It's been years since I heard this.
And it’s on my UA-cam in in 2024👍👍👍
Can't believe (lol) Shrek used this arrangement of the the song and gave them absolutely no credit.
I love it.

Am i the only person who thinks bob mortimer is much funnier than vic?

Bob was once the apprentice, but now he's the master......and away!
Bob's an international treasure
yeah.. but.. Vic suits leather!

Oh yes, he's definitely the funnier of the two
Was EMF the modern day Bay City Rollers who couldn’t play their musical instruments... ..........
No.
Not as good as "Rosalind's A Nightmare".
This ruined EMF.
Worst Smashmouth tribute band ever
Fucking Awful 😱
