Best Mentals song - without a doubt !! Pete's writing here is top class. Listening with headphones shows just how well the song was performed & mixed. Pity the video does not use the full 3:51 version!! Tiger.
Love that big old Dodge Phoenix “longship” Reg is driving, complete with battle damage on the rear quarter panel! Saw the Mentals many times live in my youth and they never disappointed. R.I.P Greedy.
'Berserk Warriors' by Mental As Anything Bjorn is just a viking He is very handy with a sword He loves nothing better Than to cut and slash right through a horde Mutilation, jubilation Friendly muscles, in a tussle.. Anna's a girl viking She is very handy with a spear She won't wear silk stockings Armour-plated garments are her sphere In the fjords, you can hear them Eerie horns blow, viking love show Bjorn and Anna earned their leisures They have each other for their pleasure.. Bjorn is on his long ship He and Anna fought it out today He says it is their Waterloo Vikings shouldn't mix their work and play All that blonde hair for them to share So much plunder, cut asunder Now when Bjorn and Anna see each other It's on the battlefield, not as lovers.. Those vikings love to fight and play Fighting berserk warriors hey hey! Those vikings love to fight and play Fighting berserk warriors hey hey! Those vikings love to fight and play Fighting berserk warriors hey hey!
Brilliant man...just pulled this classic up on a road trip in northern California, and wondered about visuals. Of course, Bill Dickens provides. A big up from this side of the Pacific, on behalf of those slamming seafood meat with sharp blades!

my favourite "mental as anything" song....i like how they mention bjorn and anna out of abba....very funny.......should have gone to number 1! day 2802. 2 x 3 x 467. only figs and 3 slices of mollenberg 12 seeds and grain bread and urine and pure water til 3.00pm then 3 more slices then usual foods at 6.00pm. ears not ringing as muuch. only figs and edgells 4 bean mix til 6.00pm yesterday.
Also seeing the advent of the Chads and Stacys before almost anyone else :-). But not the "Incel Rebellion", as nobody even in their wildest nightmares could have seen that coming.
Some Viking warriors went into battle wearing wolf or bear skins. These warriors were called 'berserkers' because they went 'berserk' (out of control) and charged fearlessly into battle.

Ok, it's not about the Chads and Stacy only, but also about Denmark being the first country in the world legalizing porn (and then of course also about Abba - Bjørn and Anni-Frid being one the 2 married couples in the band - and Anni-Frid is not from Sweden, she's Norwegian).
Best song ever from The Mentals, IMHO .. An under-exposed classic !
RIP Greedy. Great artist, great human.
I always thought this was one of their classier songs.

I relived my Viking spirit at a party on Saturday - couldn't stop singing this song!! Viking love show!!! classic
Liana Markovich Haha. Awesome! It brings out the inner Viking in us all. I love this song so much.
A great video of a great song. RIP Greedy Smith you will always be a Leg end. 🇦🇺👍🇦🇺
A real belter. Saw them at the Save Luna Park gig in 1980, brilliant. ❤️🏴
Seeing as how no-one seems to have mentioned it here, while Greedy Smith usually took lead on most of their songs, Martin Plaza sang lead on this one.
Such a brilliantly bonkers track ..
Dead right thats why their called mental as anything.
Man that bass line ........I got no words !!
Love that big old Dodge Phoenix “longship” Reg is driving, complete with battle damage on the rear quarter panel! Saw the Mentals many times live in my youth and they never disappointed. R.I.P Greedy.
Love these old music videos with silly buffoonery. People weren't afraid to be silly in front of the camera.
Welcome to Australia, where we try not to take ourselves _too_ seriously.*😋

'Berserk Warriors' by Mental As Anything
Bjorn is just a viking
He is very handy with a sword
He loves nothing better
Than to cut and slash right through a horde
Mutilation, jubilation
Friendly muscles, in a tussle..
Anna's a girl viking
She is very handy with a spear
She won't wear silk stockings
Armour-plated garments are her sphere
In the fjords, you can hear them
Eerie horns blow, viking love show
Bjorn and Anna earned their leisures
They have each other for their pleasure..
Bjorn is on his long ship
He and Anna fought it out today
He says it is their Waterloo
Vikings shouldn't mix their work and play
All that blonde hair for them to share
So much plunder, cut asunder
Now when Bjorn and Anna see each other
It's on the battlefield, not as lovers..
Those vikings love to fight and play
Fighting berserk warriors hey hey!
Those vikings love to fight and play
Fighting berserk warriors hey hey!
Those vikings love to fight and play
Fighting berserk warriors hey hey!

Happy road tripping! As it happens I’m down under right now for the holidays.
I pulled this off an ancient VHS tape. I’m happy it survived.
still awesome 2022
RIP Greedy! Take care Martin.
Great song. Loved it!!! Still do.
Yes, it's the official video. It should be on one of their video album compilations, perhaps 'Monumental As Anything'.
Love a dollar for everytime Ive seen The Mentals. Great party band.😊
the best song ever imo
This song was a shock when it came out, nothing like previous Mentals.
Great 80s band lot's of party s and fun times very different today with all The suffering and violence
Classic
RIP Andrew x
Vale Greedy Smith - RIP champion!
Safe Travels... Thx for the Music..

Love cosplay 80s music videos ❤
not hard to work out why the Mentals have had the most top 40 chart songe ever
Sounds a bit like XTC.
😊

Earwig wig wig...ohhh ohhh ohhh. ..I have found my ear wig. .....
Remember musicMAX? At Hungry Jack's?
The Vikings conquered Australia too?

Everyone knows, no-one cares.
@@virtuosic4883 thankyou for enlightnening me, and BTW take your meds

Bjorn was actually married to agnetha, not anni-frid. It's about their relationship.
Nice song. Have you got any more music max videos?
That’s the one and only. It probably comes from The Noise
Is this the actual video?
I dunno, but there was an actual shit-taking around 1:30 :)
Had to rewind to believe what I thought I saw!! 💩
R.I.P GREEDY.
B side to too many times.,,, sad day.
Did you get on the piss too much for the last 30 years or something?
Too Many Time's was one of my go too songs when running out of tunes at KROKEE
Looks like Hillary Clinton.
