The Vamps: Secret Busker - BBC Radio 1

Grimmy sent The Vamps out, disguised as ageing rockers 'Route 66' in a busk-off against Radio 1 Buskers, The Tailormade, to see who could make the most money.

[@thaitran3985]

The vamps actually won since they had more of a crowd and they were more engaging

[@sameeragarwal8831]

I am jealous of that girl dancing with Brad

[@moonysrz1765]

Ian Dave Lendio OMG Yaaaaaaaaaaassss

[@brennawendt6762]

[@rainbowbadger1129]

Now we're talking!

[@Sapphire595]

His fans will know it's him right away.

[@EnfinLibreNM]

As an American, I just realized that Brits doing American Southern accents are just as bad as us trying to do a Brit accent. lol. This was hilarious.

[@isabelladeacon1961]

I would 100% be able to tell its them😂❤️

[@moonchilds-magicshop8600]

Isabella Deacon You just can recognize them by their voices :D

[@ChloeRichardsonBeauty]

When Brad shouted James Mcvey at 7:04 he may have given the secret away

[@francescatwain]

brad's laugh at 1:10 is adorable

[@kmilne431]

People knew it was them though, a video went viral the day they did it

[@JamesBlythPhotography]

i love when brad shouted 'James McVey, oh i mean..' love it aha

[@nicoleyyy2408]

OMG 😂😂 Tristan at the last part I can't

[@daynah504]

😂I like your profile picture👌👌

[@dmlm2098]

I want Little Mix to do this haha

[@aanchalkochhar]

Dominick Lim That would be hilarious. 😂 They are good with accents. I can already see them doing this.

[@louise712]

Dominick Lim lmao sameeee

[@asadorama]

omgg yesss

[@lucyclarke2282]

L

[@ohcessiliaa06]

Dominick Lim YASSSS

[@crystal-yp4bb]

i would have recognised them by the way tristan plays the drums

[@evealexandra7255]

IRINA ANDERSON and the way Brad sings and the way Connor holds the bass and the way James looks when he plays

[@crystal-yp4bb]

Ikr

[@reshmamehmood5617]

why do things like this never happen where ever I am 😢

[@moonysrz1765]

Reshma Mehmood Saaaaaame😔

[@solane2148]

Same

[@summerguess4598]

Brad- “ Shake dem Booties, Shake em’ “ 😂😂

[@vathneatoch2360]

Someone prolly recognized them but they can always cut the footage. Btad's voice is prett unique I cud tell it was him even if I'm deaf

[@vathneatoch2360]

*Brad's

[@erinhole4466]

Vathnea Toch I'm deaf ☹️

[@gerRule]

He just sound like any random bloke singing..... no uniqueness there

[@issahurley6236]

armyyyyyyyy

[@MissLileey]

Well Brad said „James McVey“ out loud, so yeah, I think he actually messed that up and they cut the parts out where people recognized them

[@naimorgs]

I'm sure Grimmy and the film team gave it away!!!!! 😂😂

[@naimorgs]

Oh and the big mic saying RADIO1 on it!!!

[@grace-lilyjackson8525]

naimorgs I literally walked past them and didn't have a clue what was going on 😂😂

[@Sarah-eo9ip]

Naomi why'd they get such little money then 😭

[@Whimswirl]

Sarah cuz people know they're rich haha

[@serapia1976]

no lol other singers did it too like James Arthur and Im sure it's looks and voice. Vamps have good voices but not vvv good voices, and they're less known

[@keizaabigail5559]

people already know its them

[@jeanetteharvey8834]

Keiza Abigail aaawww it's all for children in need though xx

[@mtakeuchi023]

I been actually laughing the whole time the boys kill it but I guess people recognize them already 😂😂😂

[@ElizabethNicoleSchwartz]

"This is the first time anyone over 15 has loved the vamps" I take offense to that lol, since I'm 19.

[@jennabean9516]

Elizabeth Nicole I’m 23!

[@a1mae]

"James McVey!" WTH BRAD! 😂😂 YOU RUIN IN HAHAHA

[@charlotteh2280]

'First time anyone over 15 likes the vamps' 'scuse me

[@charlotteh2280]

malibu ok ok ok

[@ethereallovebugz]

Jared Aycuck lmfao shut the fuck up

[@Alice45894]

I actually prefer that acoustic version of All Night to the original

[@velvrav9437]

Waiting for Shawn Mendes to do this!!!!

[@moonysrz1765]

Duke Ravi OMG YAAAAAAAAAAASSSS 😍😍😍

[@tiakhoury293]

Yass omgggg

[@kin4797]

dang James looks so hot with that blue hair. It's a bit weird, but still hot

[@arsenaliakeysha5306]

Like if I were there I would recognize them as soon as they said hello

[@RyanneMonique]

I wanna dance with Brad, too. Haha

[@jazzymoffat1023]

It's so bait it's them just by looking 😂 they basically look the same

[@pistachiodolan6715]

tristan at the last part OMG IM DEAD HAHAHAAJAHA

[@cat5224]

Tristan at the end oh dear god hahahah

[@sandyrogers1329]

The Vamps look good and sing good no matter what they do

[@AliM-kz7oh]

Oh my favorite band Route 66 and my favorite member dusty the drummer

[@itsquix1111]

You can actually tell it’s them by their stage presence. Brad always jumps around one stage, and he always puts a hand behind his hand back when he sings. James usually had one foot up when he’s singing into the mic, and usually leans forward.

[@nikki6833]

One Direction would've have killed this haha

[@larrystylinson7805]

Remind me of best song ever music video😁😁

[@inabautista572]

They get easily known if they do this.. hahaha

[@nancydrew2m174]

They did do something like this an dit played at the Take Me Home tour.

[@ayaanomar4617]

No one will fall for it honestly,they will be a mess lol

[@alihutton]

Catfish and the bottlemen next 😉

[@harrywoodfin6642]

Alisdair Hutton - Drums and Collabs YSS YES YES

[@rubyjong5011]

Yes!

[@ajg4744]

Van would all the others have the personality of a brick

[@alihutton]

U wat

[@harrywoodfin6642]

They don't what they're all amazing people lol

[@nanipii8227]

if I were one of those passerbys I would have known them in an instant though 😂😂😂

[@ameliaborley1037]

Ninna Hapita init same i would've asked for a picture lool😂❤️

[@TheMeep246]

You could really tell it's them how did people not know haha

[@georgiadelima3284]

i would have known that were the vamps u can tell by the voice

[@ainulfarha]

i think the people know they're the vamps. i mean brad couldnt look as obvious as he was 😂😂

[@niarahmusic4235]

The way brad dances with this girl😍

[@Cait98_]

I'd have danced along😂. Not because it was the actual band but because it was The Vamps songs being payed 😂

[@lolamae6011]

“We’re just trying to get home” I’m crying 😂😭

[@larairwin7456]

CONNOR OMG 😂😂

[@Elle-vh7lv]

A ROUTE 66 ALBUM PLS 😂

[@aanchalkochhar]

The make-up artists did a great job. They look so different. But I would have recognized them as soon as I would have heard Brad's voice. He was fooling around but still sounded a lot like himself.

[@Iluzjonistay]

You Should do that with a magician - How about Dynamo?

[@samuelsaragih]

Agree

[@KimEscobedominnie]

No one ever mentions Arkansas so the fact that he said Little Rock, Arkansas shocks me! People know we exist 😂

[@ariaraujo9482]

Kim Escobedo right. Can't believe they even know about us

[@beccap2366]

Can't get over how funny they all look.

[@mariacielomusa]

I'm actually laughing my arse off! Lol!!!! Peace out Route 66 x

[@tylerstokes3524]

[@tylerstokes3524]

[@robbiereilly3161]

Tyler Stokes hahahahahaha

[@tower78]

[@anna8219]

5:31 ''Tristan is not okay, hun'' hahahaha i'm dying

[@larsonrose8765]

"We're just tryna get home" -James.............. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@jujuondebeat]

[@ajeuwa1556]

[@chantalhanna8466]

[@jowenafundevilla3387]

[@shalmalikadu2993]

Omg james looks sick!!!

[@budart_video]

You can make singers not recognizable, but when people see professional cameras around, then all the mistery is gone!

[@nakkivenegladiaattori2945]

6:50 oh james, you are an angel

[@deelilibeth]

James' transformation is my favorite ❤

[@Krystinaluvart]

if you're gonna be from Arkansas with a country accent, you have to come from Benton or Bryant. it's one of the hick towns here. I'm from little rock Arkansas...

[@onehug0287]

what a transformation guys. you really rock!!!!

[@MaRoYsAkI]

7:04 the moment Brad tells James was so funny

[@brianna1001]

James with blue hair is the death of me

[@thebriannajade]

I was just watching all the other secret busker videos last night WHAT IS THIS MAGIC

[@hollypendred]

I snorted when Brad said "James McVey! I mean Dustin!" 😂😂

[@rebeccaplumb6042]

"That's the first time anyone over the age of 15 has ever loved the The Vamps"😂😂 shots fired 🔫

[@magalimoreno5423]

[@just_a_lost_fangirl6561]

[@fueledbycoffee7872]

[@rachelk7892]

[@kiarakira8229]

Brad is such a babe!! I can't!! 😭😭😭 How can I guy be so perfectly imperfect? 😭😍

[@shahedmc9656]

It's so good that they didn't take themselves so seriously.

[@thaitran3985]

It would be nice if we could hear them sing without listening to your voice every 5 seconds

[@ceoofcommenting]

I could recognise the vamps no matter what

[@alexiem.9335]

[@KnitwithJess]

I was walking through Waterloo station today giggling to myself because this was all I could think about
