Loved this band from day dot … still reckon they are one of the finest and most underrated bands in the land! Live they are amazing and Adam’s vocals just seem to get better … one helluva front man
Saw these guy's live in Darwin back in the 90's. . .fkn awesome live. The lead singer was a madman lol. . climbed up on top of the bins (speakers) and just went mad during this song. . very memorable, was fkn brilliant night !! Sadly Zoran Romic, who played guitar and vocals passed away in March 2012. Glad I got to see the original lineup. Very hard to forget that night in Darwin when the boys came to town and just rocked the place !
Aí meu Deuussss vou morrer aqui de tanta alegria 😭❤❤❤❤ eu amo essa música faz mais de 20 anos que venho procurando eu descobri agora aqui ouvia muito tocar na casa do vizinho nos anos 90 e ficou na minha cabeça e cara eu tô chorando aqui não sei que diser estou muito feliz amoooo vocês 😢❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow , I did work experience as a kid for school and I did it at the Dane centre studios in Brunswick Melbourne and this clip was filmed there and I had to set up the curtains on the wall Mics ect. Good times
Saw these guys live in Bendigo when at Uni, small crowd listening to a pub band. That weekend they were on Hey Hey it Saturday with this awesome song (always a fan of the original). About 3-4 weeks later they were back at the same nightclub and you could hardly get in the place.
English class. I was mindlessly humming this tune. She turned around and asked "so, you think I'm vain?" I said "no, it's just a song", We met again after 15 years after graduation and we ended up dating. She told me, "you're such an idiot while we're at school. I had a crush on you, but you totally ignored me."
Was not long after this GREAT tune had 1st hit the charts, I'm old now, rough guess was around 30-ish years back? My ol local pub , The Tall Timbers @ Ourimbah NSW ( Near Gosford) had just spent a fortune building a function room & Micky Trembath the publican pulled a few of us up saying "I've booked this band, Chocolate Starfish to be the 1st band to play in the new room, Wodda ya's reckon?" Gotta be honest & admit, the 1st thing we all did was start giggling at the name.. hahahahaha (appears that not everyone 'gets' it... lol ). Cut to the next Saturday night...... HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a show!!!! Yep, obviously the bulk of their tunes we didn't know, i 'think' there was cover tune or two?... But DAMN, i'll not forget the way Adam played the stage. Prowling & Howling like a madman. The lads were performing to around a 100 or so of us, but were playing it like a full house at the Hollywood Bowl. Could not help but be BLOWN AWAY & also could not help but draw a comparison to THE great Aussie 'frontman' Doc Neeson of The Angels, & that is a huge compliment. Also gotta say, the lads helped pack their own shit away at the end then came down to sink some piss with us all, a lot of Tooheys Draught,smiles & backslapping. hahahahahaha Cut to around 10 years later, I'm working security at Channel 9 at Willoughby & Adam arrives for a meeting with Richard Wilkins (Dickie REALLY is a dick, but I digress..lol), I meet Ad's as he is about to enter reception & have a quick chat asking if he remembered the Tallies gig & he does, :D. Mentioned Trembath & everything.
Adam & tha band ...wot show men & bck up singers ....being a SHEPPARTON boy rock is embeded in us .....Adam lov ya brutha ...... Shepp Mickas fr eva ....Hutchy .....
2:00.. my deepest sympathy to the Romic family someone once wrote "only the good die young"... how very true in your case RIP Zoran Pocivaj u miru, Zorane
The bands name always makes me laugh .... lol ... not many people realise what it means .... lol ... I remember as a teenager gobsmacked that they were able to get away with it or presenters introducing them on tv show's were able to keep a straight face ! 🤣🤣
@Beef jerky Chocolate Starfish = a persons rectum ! The visual appearance of someone's arsehole with the cheeks spread wide apart giving a full view ! Australian humour !! 👍👍👍
@@longtallshorty5791 Yes , well look around and compare that to current acceptable behaviours !! The alphabet gang and drag queen doing strip shows infront of kindergaten kids ..... That's the dystopia you live in now .... Get a grip !!
I like this Carly Simon song fr decades ago. A few days ago heard this group's version in a supermarket for the 1st time. Didn't quite like the lead vocal guy's singing until the chorus. Sounds gd wif more instruments, fuller sound.
Son of a gun You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht Your hat strategically dipped below one eye Your scarf it was apricot You had one eye in the mirror, as you watched yourself gavotte And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner They'd be your partner and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain (you're so vain) I bet you think this song is about you Don't you don't you? You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive Well you said that we made such a pretty pair and that you would never leave But you gave away the things you loved And one of them was me I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee clouds in my coffee and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain (you're so vain) I bet you think this song is about you Don't you don't you don't you? I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee clouds in my coffee and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain (you're so vain) I bet you think this song is about you Don't you don't you? Well I hear you went up to Saratoga And your horse naturally won Then you flew your lear jet up to Nova Scotia To see the total eclipse of the sun Well you're where you should be all the time And when you're not, you're with some underworld spy Or the wife of a close friend wife of a close friend and You're so vain You probably think this song is about you You're so vain (so vain) I bet you think this song is about you Don't you don't you don't you?

A first for us tonight! Thank you Chocolate Starfish! Loved your show on the Sunshine Coast! 👏❤
Chocolate starfish are amazing live. First time I saw them I was probably 15 and I've seen them twice since. Love love love
my mum loves this band I love this band as will
Loved this band from day dot … still reckon they are one of the finest and most underrated bands in the land! Live they are amazing and Adam’s vocals just seem to get better … one helluva front man
I saw this band play this song at the "Cherry Tree" in Melbourne in the 90's when they first started the best version by far timeless
Uhhh…. no.
My dad was at a concert around then too because they gave him tickets cuz he was best mates with the lead singer
Very few covers are better than the original. This is one of them. Adam and boys hit this out of the park.
Jealous Guy by Roxy Music is another.
I would love to know who the HOT backing singer is in this clip.
No.

Was driving yesterday, heard it on radio. Now I'm here.
he just brings the energy the song needed
had the pleasure of meeting Zoran and playing in a Croatian band with him RIP
I just LOVE that this is filmed off the 📺 tv.. old school style!
I used to have this on a mixed tape I recorded off the radio 😁
This guy is such a talent. you have to see him live...Love Adam xx
Most underrated band. That's what happens when your career starts in Australia. You suddenly find your're dead.

@@glennojordan YEP!
The singer sure took himself seriously back in the day.
Thanks for this one. I have always liked this version over Carly Simon's. Something about the deeper male voice really sets it off.
Very good, give new meaning to the song......
man i remember this song!!
Adam & tha band ...wot show men & bck up singers ....being a SHEPPARTON boy rock is embeded in us .....Adam lov ya brutha ...... Shepp Mickas fr eva ....Hutchy .....

someone once wrote "only the good die young"... how very true in your case
RIP Zoran
Pocivaj u miru, Zorane

It’s unbelievably childish. Embarrassing. Awful band.

This song inherently sucks but this is actually listenable.

You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain (you're so vain)

You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive
Well you said that we made such a pretty pair and that you would never leave

Limp Bizkit ?
Chocolate Starfish is a nickname for the human anus
Max Nyström this band pre-dates Limp Bizkit
You're a click-baiter. You're a hack. Why do you call it [Official]? It is definitely not.
Hmm. I gotta say I don't like this as much as AC/DC or Men At Work or Wolfmother or King Gizz or Midnight Oil. I gave it a try though.
Far out... how awful is this?
