This Is Serious Mum - TISM - Whatareya? (You're A Yob or You're A Wanker)

[@ycgffs]

The Australian music landscape is poorer without TISM in it

[@stephenbarrett2731]

Omg yes. Need recovery back...

[@olivegrove2615]

it's been a famine for decades.

[@troyundroy1]

I was at the Prince of Wales in St Kilda on a Sunday arvo in '95 helping a mate who worked there & asked him why there were holes in the ceiling above the stage in the band room. "TISM played last night". That was my introduction. Love em.

[@adren0chr0me.]

Haha nice one! Back in the day :)

[@slashpot]

God, is it ever! But would they get it now? We need u TISM!!

[@joannamcbride1726]

Australian national anthem

[@t3l3phasicworksh0p]

That "Tinnie Mark" at 1:07, and the "Skid Marks" at 2:54 and 3:03 are surely some of the most impressive plays in AFL history. Ever..

[@darrenwilsonV2]

Ah man these guys were ahead of their time. Miss the 90s

[@LobsterHaunting]

Is this that Franz Ferdinand band i keep hearing about?

[@ghostdelay6770]

The most important band of all time

[@Ekfud]

Love the VB catch at 1:07.

[@scottp526]

I so miss them :( Saw them so many times, always different, always amazing. The mosh pit rocked. The lyrics were clever but the beat was perfect.

[@lisabeaumont9403]

This is inspired me to be a Group Fitness Instructor

[@stevolution898]

Back in the old days living in Geelong i had the privilege to see these guys many many times.

[@Cha1r]

I'm a yob I'm a yob I'm a yob I'm a yob I'm a yob I'm a yob I'm a yob I'm a yob. I can't decide if TISM is brilliant social allegory, or debased filthy schlock. Thus is their universal appeal.

[@RoasterMcdougalify]

Heard the original Hawaiian cowboy last night and the memories of TISM came flooding back.

[@CarbieWarbie]

Glad you like these This Is Serious Mum aka TISM videos! My VIMEO channel now has the missing TISM music videos that KZbin refuse to host. 🐓 TISM - Defecate On My Face vimeo.com/carbiewarbie/TismDefecate TISM - I Might Be A Cunt But I'm Not A Fucking Cunt vimeo.com/carbiewarbie/TismCunt

[@robertspeaks2901]

Years late, so happy I found this.

[@hammylink]

I love that the guy takes a bump like it's no big deal and then he starts wailing on the instructor after putting down his beer.

[@ForzaDeMullet]

The speccies on the sofa - staple part of watching footy on TV.

[@mfactor88]

how true is this song. TISM love or hate em they speak the truth in their words always a fan m50

[@DrJamesFeelgood]

They're the best thing to come out of Australia ever!

[@worldaroundrecords]

I watch this like a dozen times a week.

[@gocharger1969]

I was 7 years old when I heard first heard the term "wanker" thanks to this song haha

[@ASHERUISE]

I was 27 when I first heard the term "yob" thanks to this song.

[@Johnnysabboy]

Greatest music vide ever

[@triabunna]

yes mate, makes me smile on sad day.

[@blurman101]

THE Memories, what ever happened to this Music

[@saberwolfe6363]

3:01 what a speccy!

[@TheHungrySlug]

Pure classic!

[@Zeropainter420]

I have listened to tism for years but no one in America knows about them . Were they popular in Australia? They made great videos and seemed way ahead of their time . Here we had those damn wiggles and even though Jeff was good they were no TISM

[@burnthis9969]

Yep, they were quite popular in Australia in the 90's.

[@Sugaro_x]

aha, fucking love it. my dad showed me this and literally no one else knows it (that i know)

[@bartholomewtwo]

Pretty popular yeah, especially in their hometown, Melbourne!

[@TempestBob]

They are a goddamn national treasure. Really young folks might not have heard of them, but most others have.

[@paulclarke4240]

Melbourne institution.

[@bcsportsreporter]

This is comedic gold....

[@davidhanifin]

Tism have made it easy to define our generations. The people excercising are Generation Y and the people in masks are generation X. Wow - I think I have just hit the G spot in sociology.

[@fredrowan2477]

Soon they'll have to be called TISK: "This is Serious Kids"

[@someguy-ty1fg]

Ahh tism....i forgot rhis was a thing! Very nice

[@BennyEarlyHardcore-beats]

Wonder how many Takes it took to get this clip right.... Anyways Definately a Classic.

[@klippies1011]

[@crylikeamonkey]

[@Syburi]

Check out the classic skoll at 2:13

[@galvanium]

The quintessential bogan workout. Lots of laughs thanks TISM. But just like the Dixie Chicks with Goodbye, not to be taken too seriously.

[@ruinedbyidiots]

Haha, gold. Are they the Aerobics Oz Style folks?

[@tK-be6ns]

Yup. You should also check out this dong when TISM were in Recovery

[@keleidoscope]

I miss aerobics Aus style

[@joannamcbride1726]

This is pretty much an Australian song

[@ForzaDeMullet]

@Ekfud The speckies at 2:54 and 3:03 are pretty good too.

[@paulfamechon]

does anyone remember the first ol man river film clip?

[@dollybirde]

My vote for the new Shtrayan Anthem.

[@slobberingjahn]

Hahaha, this is so funny. Awesome song.

[@AJLangford]

The best beer can catch ever lol Classic. Still applies today of course.. Probably more wankers today than ever. They should make a comeback! We need them!!

[@FrankBullett]

Would love to know who the Red Head is on the left side

[@robbielawson6528]

Love it, played Razor Scooter straight after this.

[@cca73127]

Still fuckin excellent kudos to the aero's

[@steveparker8579]

Too Good!

[@charkvaror2112]

[@antionnetube]

Well, Australia has considered a new National Anthem.....

[@12lemonsful]

6am aus aerobics ha ha ha i used think the same shit

[@Jeansieguy]

This clip sums up Australia!

[@danf2]

Why am I watching Australia music and liking it.

[@Nogli]

At 2:01 - 2:17 he doesn't drink a single drop of that beer! His mouth fills, it pours down his front, and then sprays the mouthful at the lead exercise guy!

[@APEtv2013]

[@DiViBucket]

@DrJamesFeelgood Greater than ACDC, Convicts, and Steve Irwin?

[@Drzozo]

@DiViBucket convicts didnt come out of Australia they went in (and they had kids who had kids who got the internet and keyboards)

[@Antipodean33]

[@VoyageOne1]

Absolute gold.

[@haggidubious]

[@Anonymous-or4ru]

[@panzerfaust375]

[@Zoink100]

[@stevebluh]

TISM I like. Even I have a mobile phone now. Were all wankers now.

[@anthonymolina9130]

did they know what they were into when they did this video???

[@sydeston]

Please let them loose on Eurovision

[@thetechnoraveguy99]

hahahahaha they get a tv and a couchhahahahahha

[@jawbraeka]

When did they split?

[@eyevocal]

jawbraeka It looks like their last proper performance was in 2004. In 2008, their guitarist James Paull (Tokin' Blackman) passed away. Damien Cowell (Humphrey P. Flaubert) has had side bands called Root!, DC3 and Damien Cowell's Disco Machine, while bassist Jock Cheese released a solo album entitled Platter. They did release a new version of "Shut Up - The Footy's on the Radio" in 2010 with Jock on guitar and Humphrey singing new lyrics. Have they actually split up? We'll never know.

[@fooltheclown9004]

jawbraeka when one of these mad lads died.. a real tragedy

[@Mannchild11]

How the hell did I get here?

[@andrewbell1988]
