You're twistin' my melon man, you know you talk so hip man
You're twistin' my melon man, call the cops
Hey rainmaker, come away from that man
You know he's gonna take away your promised land
Hey good lady he just wants what you got you know
He'll never stop until he's taken the lot
(Hey hey hey he hey hey)
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
You're a man
Hey rainmaker he got golden plans I tell you
He'll make a stranger in your own land
Hey good lady he's got God on his side he got a double
Tongue you never think he would lie
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
You're a man
He's gonna step on you again, he's gonna step on you
He's gonna step on you again, he's gonna step on you
Hey rainmaker, come away from that man
You know he's gonna take away your promised land
Hey good lady he's got God on his side he got a double
Tongue you never think he would lie
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
Gonna stamp out your fire, he can change your desire
Don't you know he can make you forget you're a man
You're a man
You're twistin' my melon man, you know you talk so hip man
You're twistin' my melon man
(Hey hey hey he hey hey)
#HappyMondays #StepOn
Massive fan from Alabama lol nobody I talk to has a clue who the happy mondays are or any band from Manchester lol
Hot
But i know. Kirill from Moscow Russia 36yo
Thats the way how the music goes bro))))
Cali here. We KROQ in LA, 91X in SD, x103.9 in the IE. We were loaded with good music. Thank God.
São Paulo - Brasil. Concordo plenamente com você
same here in WV
The stone roses, The smiths, The charlatans, oasis and happy Mondays, God bless the Madchester era, the land of the kings of rock.
10cc as well
808 State too, not a rock band but their music is awesome
And the Beegees they're from Salford
808 YEP @@ejenplitobarces
And New Order!
I'm American and I've concluded the Madchester scene was one of a kind. One of the most interesting sounds in music, and one of the best eras in modern music history.
Your probably a scouser begin for likes
I am also American and JUST NOW discovered the Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, Inspiral Carpets and the Charlatans. I had heard of these bands but never HEARD THEM. The Smiths were the only 80s English band I cared about. Until now. This music is awesome. America didnt have this kind of talent in the late 80s/early 90s. Not until Grunge broke. Then America owned music for the next five years.
TheCopeland45 You have never owned nothing . 😂. Gunge ? Bless
There is so much music that has been lost and never given the chance to shine. Thank God I can surf UA-cam and rediscover gems like this.
@@thomasjohnson9677 begging* sorry im from the south
Luka modric is now my favourite singer
Ha ha, top comment.
Hadn't thought of Shaun Ryder in that light but your spot on mate, he's a ringer for em
Lol
Holy fuck!!!! You´re right lad!!!
Lol
Like other posters have already said RIP Paul Ryder. Great music from a great band in a great era for British music.
Привет из Перми!) на Туманный Альбион!))
Had to take something to travel
I want to go back to the 90s 2024 is fkked
Yeah, let's go. I can't believe this work of genius was 30 years ago.
Dam straight
Remember the political, economic and social climate these bands were grafted out of.
Get off social media and things are ok
C I it's me
Farewell Paul Ryder: great memories from the beginning of the best decade for British Music. RIP
Well said man
"best decade for British Music"
Oh go away yer Sausage , im 57 and ill sell my kidneys to argue that the best decade For music was the "80,s"
But I'm a realist unlike yourself 😇 clearly the best decades for music EVER
Where the 50,s and 60,s ............................
PERIOD 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
The golden era
Is he dead?
Thanks for the great bass man. I'll sorely miss ya.
Man I fucking miss the 90s
Amen to that bro
the 90's the last great decade in human history
100% right....take me back🙋♀️
No internet was it so bad ......
? Hell no !!!!
Faithless , so true pal !
Unless it's like the dark ages every decade life gets better for people. You just want to be young again
@@daftbanna7202 No the new music shit man
Sitting on a hillside fcked up...watching the sun rise ..middle of summer ....laughing our heads off ....sisters n brothers from other mothers..(still have that connection today)....trying to comprehend how happy we were 88-91 warehouse parties...BEAUTIFUL...i lived the dream 🙏
Coming down from e

@@ShakaCthulu hehe rings a bell 🤪
this song is like a time capsule, brings back so many great memories. I think most happy mondays record’s still stand up perfectly well.
Don't forget Kinky Afro.
Couldn't sing but great times and blag
*records
The early 90s, Manchester and the Happy Mondays...Best times of my life. R.I.P Paul.
🙂
Respect
DO YOU MEAN FATTY ERSE FINALLY GOT STABBED, IN MORE THAN A LEG, &, DONE IN!
TYPICAL, DEVERS, THEIVING KVNT!
LIVE BY THE SWORD, DIE BY THE SWORD!
😅😮😂
54 year old Manc here. Manchester was cool as fuckin the 90's. Flares, acid, Afflecks, Hacienda, Reni hats, we were the centre of the universe
We dressed like that a few years before bands did as Glasgow rangers soccer casuals but must agree Manchester had it all
Hell yeah we were brother✌️
❤ true
Word ❤
Slay !! ... it was fkn awesome !! ... still pissing people around me right off with these amazing grooves !! .... Manchester FOREVER !! ❤
Still an amazing tune 30 years on, they could play live like no other band, pure bedlam, love it
Don't know about you, but I'm having a trip down memory lane to youth, great music and questionable decisions 😄
@@mandymac2059 and very little sleep
Shame it’s a cover but a great cover at that. Preferred their stuff off Bummed. Also tunes like WFL, Hallelujah and Madchester Rave On. Freaky Dancing! Tune!! Great band that were never given enough credit. Proper dance groove but “indie “ vibes. The Wrote For Luck was it Oakenfold mix was an absolute fucking banger!!
Yeah, it's a great cover.
Wow … It’s still alive 2023
3:23 love how Bez head butts Shaun 🤣 Shaun looks at him like WTF 🙄😅
Can't be many songs with an instantly recognisable guitar riff and an instantly recognisable piano riff. Love this song, still sounding fresh in 2020.
Yeah. I love the piano riff from December, 1963 as well.
There are quite a few... But know what you mean :-)
damngood.
Originally done by John Kongos roughly 50 years ago
Absolute banger 🔥
This song is 30 years old. Thirty. Take me back.
This is older now than Please Please Me was then.
The song is actually 49-50 years old! It's a cover of John Kongos song ""He's Gonna Step on You Again". Happy Monday's version is the best cover version though..... 😃
Wow I'm only 23 but I believe I was born in the wrong era
@@darkstatehk no credits in the description either!
It's old as me I feel such a connection to early90s music ,my dads from north Liverpool lol ,, I just feel connection I wish I de Beene born in his era and enjoyed this time in my 20s
Tune !! I am nearly 60 and this still makes me get up and dance!!
the only thing you can do while listening to this song. Sitting down is no option.
Yeah i know what you mean clare,
I am 53 and still dancing to it.
Dirto
Ditto
Mental 90s
"Most people can name every member of the Beatles, but im like that with Happy Mondays - theyre my beatles." - Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins)
Wow! This Happy Mondays cover brought back some pleasant memories! I heard this song by John Kongos while I was stationed in Vietnam in 1971. As an Air Force medic, we'd climb up onto the roof of our dispensary every night with 2 or 3 of the "walking wounded" veterans after "lights out at 10 PM", pop a cassette into the tape deck, break out some weed, cold coca-colas and some munchies, and party for a couple hours! It was sort of a mini celebration the night before the vets would fly back to the states (along with the more severely wounded vets) for further rehab. Of course, the vets were always different each night, but it made us feel good to reward those guys for surviving their tour. As one vet remarked, "Man, this is the BEST night I've EVER had in Vietnam! I will NEVER forget you guys!" I was 22.
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Thank you for sharing that. That's beautiful!
Thank you for sharing. Thank you for your service
@@SilkaJoSilawulf Providing medical care for wounded allied and American vets was my pleasure, a significant chapter in my 54+ years in the healing profession. ❤
Thanks for that been listening to this for years and never knew it was a cover
THAT BASS GUITAR
Paul Ryder is very underated.
Just found out today he’s kicked the bucket :( may he rest in peace
I'm 58 now and when I see young people heading out to the club I just want say, "yeah, this old man over here...yes me...you'll have fun tonight, but you can't possibly have a better time than I did back in 91. And then one day it will be over."
1991 forever!
@T See that's the problem right there. Your generation is using the wrong drugs. Alcohol, coke, and xanax are garbage drugs. LSD, psilocybin, and MDMA is where the good times are. You can trust the people around you, which is a plus.
@T Its a reference to the movie 2001: a Space Odyssey. I was older than you are now in 2001.
@T I didn't want to come off all grandpa Simpson on you. Was really ment as a suggestion. I've done them all and the only ones that weren't a problem were the list I gave you. A plus is besides MDMA they are basically undetectable by any drug test. Non habit forming and the only side effect is falling in love with the universe.😂
I was born in 1993 always hung around with people good few years older than me hearing their stories of actually going to raves and parties in 90s I always felt jealous. I know I’d be much older now but god I wish I experienced the 80s and 90s
The early 90s are a coke filled haze... Marylebone NW1 crew checking in. Not sure how I'm still alive; nor for that matter how any of us survived. My heart couldn't handle it now, but the memories are there somewhere... shudder at the close calls and wonder what happened to those less fortunate whom turned to the opiates thereafter. RIP John Jermyn
Lisson Grove represent!
Im 49 now and this time was without doubt the best days of my life ... I certainly twisted my mellon man ... ohhhh yeeeeaaaahhh. drugs clubs and more drugs and yet more clubs ... I wish I was back there now my kids who were born in this era are calling me old .... cheeky buggers
Oright david your off your melons man
Paul Ryder RIP.
I hope you are partying hard, wherever you are now.
The epitome of swagger.
Cool cats alright
This song NEVER fails to lift my mood. Thank you Happy Mondays for this masterpiece 🙏 💫 ❤ and Bez for bringing the vibes. Vibes are so important man!
Bez is the Bezt! He's my favorite member of the band yet he doesnt play nor sing. The ultimate hypeman, so dope not a word need be spoken!
@@ogsegasteve9430 Yes, but other people are still saying Flavor Flav was the ultimate hypeman too. And the Bunga Bunga is good too lol.
Perfect 🎉
@@ogsegasteve9430 I know! I just get him, whatever he's doing we get it 😃
@@SJ-un9dy 😃
As soon as I hear that piano my knees go wobbly
Haha haha class!!
RIP Paul Ryder..extremely talented and helped defined the 90s..iconic is an understatement
What! He's passed away?
@@kamranhashmi1575 yes he did
Blood clot Iscemic heart attack brought on by coronary artery disease.
Just hours before they were supposed to perform
Years of the heroin abuse caught up to him and a terrible lifestyle
Shaun unfortunately hasn't fared much better but he's still with us.
@@truckerkevthepaidtourist the clotshots did it actually!!
@@jon-kp2rq 🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@truckerkevthepaidtourist truth hurts dont it,lol
"Twistin my melon, man" could be the ultimate post-modern meme. Make it so.
Engage!
That expression was originally coined by Steve Mcqueen ... Well he was known to say it back in the day!
Call the cops😁
Tik tok get to work
"Your twistin ma melon man"
1990 had the most short lived and distinct style of dancey drum loops
That acid house sound baby - second summer of love!
I may be one of the few American viewers, but this is a delight.
Haha we have 2 american melons that need twisting happy days
@@seanandlizzie Shaun Ryder is a character and, as someone who lives in L.A., I find the Madchester scene quite entertaining.
This song got modest airplay on US radio and MTV for a couple months in early 1991 but then it disappeared quickly. It went to #57 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Absolute class track. Monday's definitely had their own sound.
bez what a joke
This was a cover of an early 70s song
RIP Paul. Like The Beatles and the Rolling Stones in the 1960's,defining a world we live in.
I had the pleasure of meeting Shaun Ryder in a bar here in Dublin. An absolute down to Earth bloke. Asked for a photo and he happily obliged and shook my hand.
Who's still listening and bouncing ??🔥🔥
0:03 I doubt that was the first time Shaun Ryder was hanging off of E
Modern Life Is Rubbish- that was the whole point....
Paul Rone Oh was it? Did you shoot the video? Bellend
@@LiamHammers1 CAlm down mate
Mecha Jaraxxus who tf are you
@@LiamHammers1 It's pretty fucking obvious ya plank
rumour has it, Bez is still dancing from this video non stop...
lol
matty BROWN I bet he still is!! lol
It's called a very slow run
So am I......... ;-)
Pain to stand behind in the post office queue
Bez dancing is my spirit animal
What a fcuking tune ❤
RIP Paul Ryder 😥 this def got me melon twisted get that rave started for us all up there Paul ✌🏻
late '80's early '90's will never be surpassed. Best time to grow up
RIP Paul Ryder 🙏
RIP Paul 💔
You’re all in my heart.
RIP Paul Ryder... 58, too young that.
Shaun’s a sound guy he lived just down the road from me as a kid, I saw him at the shop once and asked him about his snake bite from his time on I’m a celebrity get me out of here, I was amazed used to always say to him you’re twisting my melons man 😂 A few years later my dad was working on his house and he sent me a home a signed Christmas card a true Salford legend!
Respect always a Happy Monday 🕺🕺🕺👍
How have you not offered to buy him a pint I bet you’d end up seeing aliens that night
Lies lies....
A fucking true legdgen
You win
I could dance to the sound of this bass line for ages. Bez-slyle moves...such a great vibe!
The Bez dance is underrated 🕺🏾
Rest in Peace beautiful man. The World is the worse for you passing. But the better for you having been.
ITS DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARE
Rip Paul 🎸
Kids these days dont know what they missed. Good job youtube is here so I can tell my kids about the 2nd summer of love!
Kids today are too busy worrying about being offended and apologising for being white.
R. I. P Paul Ryder an understated bass guitarist imo. Cheers for the memories especially Mondays Brixton 92 ❤️
Twistn' my melon, man.... keeyall the cops!! LOVE IT!! ♥♥
RIP Paul Ryder
These songs by the Mondays spoke volumes to me when i was a teenager. I used to go in my room and put these tunes on vinyl on my record player. Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, Charlatans, Inspiral Carpets, got me through my adolescent years.
Yup used to rock this when I was senior in ‘91 at parties at my house when my dad went away for the weekends…kegs and doobies 😃
Excellent choices 😅
Excellent choices 😅
Legend has it his melons are still being twisted
We Love Madchesta in North Yorkshire 🏴 God bless England 🏴👌
Manchester isn’t in North Yorkshire dipshit
Oh my how to prove you have no idea who the Happy Mondays are. Lancashire!
@@lenrichardson7349 what you on about yer Clown 🤡 I’m a Yorkshireman but according to you I’m not allowed to like Madchesta Music 😂
@@lenrichardson7349I’m a Man Utd Fan in Scarborough. Seen Mondays Live in Scarbados …. You ok kid 😂
Happy Mondays still soundin' fresh over 30 years later! Summer Soundtrack!
1990. Best year ever. Summer of dove 🕊
didn't realist how good a time it was back in the day
driving around Cornwall in my mk1 escort mexico with this playing....good times.... I really want a time machine so I can appreciate it again...better...
Was born in 1989, remember my dad smashing this classic on his hi fi when I was 4. I’m now 30 and it makes my hairs stand on end. Fuck I wish I was born 20 years earlier
Remember this Song at the Soccer WM in Italy 1990. It was such a great time,fights,👃and beer. Legend.
As a young man in the 90's you were either Bez, or knew a Bez. No avoiding it. Great times
Met Shaun Ryder in O'Sheas in Manchester on whitworth street when I was smoking red seal through a silver palm leave credit card pipe! He was with curly watts from coronation street, wasn't a bad night out in the end!!!!!
Bez here 🤗
@@bryanmower2703 Ha ha get in mate
whoever produced this was a genius...this video was played in every pub in halifax uk
Rest In Peace Mr Paul Ryder a fantastic Bass man
he's not dead
Im off to watch these guys tonight in Leeds...Inspiral Carpets and Stereo MCs in support.
Look.!!..Good times!!..it was!!..Mondays were top,.!!..we all,!! Just flopped,side by side ,not caring,dancing, moving, enjoying,.. Nice times!!..Proper E's and spliffs then!!!!!...ian Curtis, riding backwards.cycle chopper..!!..61,and still love it!!!x
Shaun Ryder - absolute excellence this bloke, and then some in his own strange way.
RIP Paul
I don't know what it is about Manchester, but their front men always have the same swagger. That limber looking strut that Ian Brown, Liam Gallagher, and Shaun Ryder have.
I simply love it.
Happy Mondays - Step On (Official Music Video) 1136am 5.7.23 this band was another man's passion... today i got the giggles so dont take it amiss... dead pigeons is all i think of when i hear the happy mondays. i think one of them dropped down dead - ask budgie and those other punks - when i was stood outside woolies one saturday.. must have been trynna tell me something. as far as glam rock goes some kids used to stand in virgin and our price doin' that dance that glam rock fans did and the manger of store thought they allus greeted each other in that fashion - that's all i was laughing at. end of...no need to get paranoid, sir... imagine that - she only loved you for that very fact alone, doin the glam rock dance thing...
15 and discovering happy mondays weed speed and acid .. What a time to be alive .. Ive never been right since
Wot is right?
@@VarietyVideoGamer no mate,think he meant he was 15 when this tune was the shit....either that or he's still visiting lucy in the sky with diamonds!
Ha Haha 👍👍
U know that
me to, we must of done the same shit, lol
This was written by John Kogos in 1971 original title He's gonna step on you again. They changed the title.
I was 18. My first time abroad, in England. Concert at Leeds Stadium. The sound was bad but the mood was perfect. I will never forget that. They were like Gods to me
The spelling didn't. Sorry.
@@cubrasa2 it was just a little joke pal that's why I apologised. Fucktarf
Yeah whole #Madchester scene was almpst biblical - preaching the gospel of Stone Roses, Charlatans, Mondays, Inspiral Carpets, Oasis for starters - life changing stuff for me - #,Madchester is either in you or it ain't... Sounds like it that genre runs through your veins just like it does mine.... Wish it was 1990 again.....
I lived in England at the time of all these amazing bands, now that was a vibe!!
R.I.P Paul Ryder 7/15/22
sO COOL
What a great song and great British band of the 90s
The Mondays came out of the mid 80’s mate
Saturday night in with a gin & tonic listening to the Mondays how times have changed.
Whisky back then, whisky now.
Not much has changed
scotch & soda here, ran out of vodka and gin, no loss
Weed is better
Remember this on my old NOW vhs. Memories ❤
Amsterdam greets the happy mondays. Those where the days
Reminds me back in 1991 when I was a personal trainer at the gym. All I did was pump iron for 3 hours a day and this song was always on my walkman on my cassettes. The type of music I listened to 30 years ago. 😎👍👌💪🎶🎵🎧🎸
It reminds me of 1991 too, sort of like an EMF, Unbelievable type of song.
Me too, and now I'm a fat twat listening to some crap by Niki Minage or Cardi B whilst feeding the pigeons. Parklife!
👍
@@manfredmann2766I love EMF as well
I do like this song. Bez and Shaun at their best.
Paddy the baddy making hits in and out of the ring!
Madchester, factory, from joy division to the happy Mondays. Bobs yer uncle. 😎 🇬🇧
R.I.P Paul Ryder God Bless.
My older brother Paul's a big Mondays fan.👍
Hackney and Camden clubbing days! Genius. Manchester forever. Uk 🇬🇧 💷
90s off my head on alcohol drugs and women great time the world wasn’t so uptight
To right you are thats coming from a 60 year old guy and it won't be the same again iam afraid
yes yes mate, exactly the same here, an epic decade to be late teens/early 20s in......i'm 45 now, how the fork did that happen?
@Yoster Schnauss Not really sure how to reply to that....perhaps not so much "true white male" as "young, stupid and irresponsible male", which is certainly not behaviour that is exclusive to whites. But anyway :-) :-)
Best days of our lives lads, footy, e's, music, now dog walks and school runs! Wouldn't change it all for the world! Rave on!
Same here but 70s till now, never get old...........................
Kongos is one of my favorite bands. Their father, John Kongos originally wrote this song, which brought me here. I haven't heard this version in ages. Music is so amazingly connected.
This is an all time classic tbf cos this isn’t my usual type of music but I will always love this🔥🤙🏼😅
Yeah, it's a decent cover.
reminds me of shaun of the dead every time, love this tune and have for years and years
I'm so glad that I got caught up in the Happy Mondays rave vibe,as a teenager,,had all the records,going to see them playing,jaw swinging while dancing 💃 lol and having the time of my life!! Happy days indeed!👌🖖✌❤🇬🇧
RIP Paul Ryder. Legend.
Rip PR💙
If this song doesn't give you that northern parka swagger then you've got a problem, great tune .
30 years I’ve been listening to this now! Madchester!
This track defines an entire era.
Hummm toute ma jeunesse 🇧🇪🇧🇪🙏
