As a kid growing up in the 80s I just saw Chas n Dave as a novelty act. Far from it, these two are serious musicians and great entertainers that defined a now extinct part of London working class England.

[@drzozzy]

Yes! All I knew was Rabbit. They were seriously talented musicians and songwriters. And so young! I thought they were really old at the time

[@mildredsparks6684]

Same here, now in my 40s I’m seeing them on a whole new level. Sadly won’t ever get the chance to see them play.

This reminds me of being a kid, singing this song with my English nan, on what seemed like a daily basis. When i was in my 20s i got to see C&D at the 100 club. They really don't get the credit they deserve as pretty great musicians.

[@nigeljohnson4880]

It doesn't get any better than that really, dose it? Hearing them play, It makes you smile from ear to ear and i don't care.

[@U2QuoZepplin]

It's like Jools Holland said (or someone like that,) they are deceptively talented musicians. You hear their songs and because the audience sings along you think they are simple. But this performance proves that nothing could be further from the truth! Try bashing this one out at the Karaoke with your best mate. The interplay of lyrics between Dave and Chas is mind blowing genius. ❤❤❤🎉🤓🧐🧐🧐🧐🤯😎😎😎😍

[@BestUserNameUK]

Nothing deceptive at all re: their talent.. all 3 of them were at the top of their game and well sought after.

[@letni9506]

Every song these days seems to be R&B, drill, depressive pop with slurred vocals I miss the Muppets, the happy days theme tune and Chaz and Dave😃
