Blancmange - Living On The Ceiling

I always loved the quirkiness of this video. Lots of musical flavors, exotic locations and '80s goodness!
This is my second attempt to upload this video. The first time it was blocked completely by YT, but lately I've noticed that some of my previously blocked videos are now allowed.

[@magnetoasmr]

Benny Harvey R.I.P. What strange bedfellows he and Blancmange made.

[@Mavidyatunes]

bedfellows?

[@F_I_J_I_W_A_T_E_R]

Miss you big man.

[@BigKenobi]

Gone but not forgotten.

[@yuyuhaki1]

Love this song. Long live to 80's!

[@sarahk26]

Great Song! So different! This song did not get enough airplay in the 80s but I hear it all the time on my Stingray app in Canada.

[@vezmalik5042]

Another great classic from the 80s..live the video

[@andrew23947]

this song is a true eighties classic

[@patricksullivan7854]

Maybe for you. Stuck in Southsea was I, doing my job for a fast rent. Not like you Baker.

[@littlelies1]

Forgotten masterpiece. Sublime.

[@AbandonedNorthJersey]

I miss the 80`s

[@2009jadeorchid]

I have been looking for this song, for such a long time. Good to find it on You Tube.

[@azuritestone]

This was out when I was uni. I remember dancing to this with a guy on my course during freshers week who was really tall. I am 5ft 2 and that stage 6 & 1/2 st and he picked me up, his hands practically round my whole waist and twirled me round and round. Such fun.

[@gmc3265]

Did you get the D.

[@karenswann253]

What's freshers?

[@dawnbaker1970]

@@karenswann253 Freshers week is orientation week for new students. "Student orientation or new student orientation is a period before the start of an academic year at a university or tertiary institutions. A variety of events are held to orient and welcome new students during this period. The name of the event differs across institutions."

[@MultiMrMiles]

[@xbustinjieber]

Never have a bath listening to jazz. Your hands will attack you and you'll be up t'bloody tree.

[@kenconnor2006]

Those high up trousers were trendy for about a month in the eighties because the suits of the dead were been sold off in church jumble sales and it looked retro cool on skinny blokes like they were still on WW2 rations and in film noires. KC

[@pixiespalette]

LOVE this........song is too cool...........

[@thrithgolden2748]

Gosh I loved Dancing to this..

[@Lonestarry]

Fabulous song - really. The lyrics are really on point.

[@gojump7]

It's always strange to see an MTV logo at the beginning or throughout these videos... hard to remember MTV ever being that cool!

[@AbandonedNorthJersey]

When it very first came out it was amazing .I would never even know of this song had it not been for mtv .Video after video from 81 till late 90s ..

They added Up the Cuckoo tree for BBC apparently..

[@Bethfromwigan]

i know this song was on an advert in the uk recently, but which one was it ?. i forgot...

[@zapkvr]

So does the place shut down for Ramadan?

[@mercuryman1614]

The Indian riff is because of deepak khazanchi he was in the band/producer

[@psychickitty1]

Mercury Man Sounds more middle Eastern to me, but cool harmonies nonetheless😉

[@furrettheferret9562]

I’m up the bloody tree

[@karenswann253]

I'm looking for cd's,

[@danielrodriguezvillanueva7401]

The song is very funny people have to learn from this guy

[@jonnyy4088]

Don't know what the barber did to him after 'instructions' like that.

[@karenswann1729]

hahaha

[@kc1973able]

It HAD! to be an improvement though :)

[@parrytonneath]

Ron Jeremy playing the bagpipes at 1:03

[@Polecatz]

I swear this is sampled in the Weeknd’s Take My Breath but doesn’t appear to be credited?

[@Jackbee23]

Limmy's show!!

[@davidcleary937]

Interesting how they substituted "cuckoo" for "bloody" in this version.

Osama's late night TV viewing, after the 4 wives and 20 kids were all asleep.
