Limmy's Reaction To Sparks - The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte

[@spurtfather]

pure crying in his latte

[@kouranko]

😅😅😅😅

[@LukeTG1_TTV]

😂

[@Rosskles]

There's nothing that fuels this man's rage more than being proven right.

[@Datapoint90]

This is perfect. The fact that he predicted she would dance like Christopher Walken dances in that music video is so funny. The moment she started to flap her arms i burst out laughing because it is literally EXACTLY like that.

[@Tester-sh1mn]

Well not exactly, Christopher Walken can do it very well, Cate not so much.

[@ColeHomeVideo]

Yes because Christopher Walken invented dancing. Brains of fuckin Britain right here.

[@nothankyou]

I bet whichever sixth form art student came up with the video idea was really proud of it

[@unknown.mp4]

I've just seen Limmy's Reaction To Sparks - The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte and nothing prepares you for this. I cheered, I shouted, I fist pumped the air, I cried, I stood and cheered. It's absolutely everything you hoped it was going to be and I'm so proud to be in it and I can't wait for you to see it.

[@samr7314]

Love the way his idea of youth is reacting to a sparks video with the ‘take my money’ gif

[@Shiodiodia]

...what?

[@flabbybum9562]

This video was a disturbing experience for me. A traumatic experience. I'm a big Limmy fan and have been for years. And I've been into Sparks - as in my favourite 'band' for over forty years. Limmy is like my best pal, who I've just introduced to my da, and they start arguing and kicking the crap out of each other right in front of me.

[@bloganc]

I love it when you get so enraged, you adjust your seat to really dig into the rage.

[@PaperbackJourneys]

For me, part of the fun of watching Limmy, is trying to work out what exactly he’s annoyed about this time.

[@Thisnameistaken11]

You'll understand when you're older.

[@PaperbackJourneys]

@@Thisnameistaken11 You're right I made this comment a year ago when I was a little 39 year old. Now that I'm 40 I get it. 🏆

[@NagasakiBladers]

now THIS is what a reaction video should be like

[@HarcusCGTV]

"Im fucking raging" ... that was my moment mate, bang on.

[@bloganc]

The immediate fuck off lol, instant Limmy rage.

[@lukeboy61]

For those who don't get why he's raging it's that he knew exactly what was going to happen in what is being portrayed as an avant-garde music video. But avant-garde by definition shouldn't be predictable, so it's just bullshit. It only gets away without being called out for its bullshit by most people because people have such short memories or are too young to remember this shit has been done before.

[@Jake_Hanrahan]

You’re not wrong. He’s always spot on. Everything is so predictable.

[@marknewbold2583]

No one said avant garde

[@lukeboy61]

@@marknewbold2583 no, no one but me stating an opinion on a KZbin video. Which you're welcome to disagree with. From watching Limmy, he doesn't seem to be one to overexplain his motives, his reasoning. I'd be surprised if I ever hear 'avant-garde' uttered from his lips. The phrase itself reeks of snoberly.

[@lukeboy61]

@Jay M oh don't remind me, that's from the terribly snobby radio 4 review of his book right? I quite like some of the things put out by radio 4 at times but that really knocked my opinion of them down a few pegs.

[@MZmizoxxx]

​@@lukeboy61 totally right. Limmy knows the score and can see exactly how predictable and fucking banal folk are. Same about Radio 4.

[@badassdanthepowerman6438]

The video was better for me when I didn’t know it was Cate Blanchett. Songs not bad though, but Sparks are an interesting band for me, handful of songs I absolutely love, Kimono My House I like all the way through, but then there’s just so many songs that annoy the living shit out of me too. But I do like them a lot, and if they came to Australia I would go and see them, but not a band I walk about listening too bar 3-5 songs.
