Word Up By Neil Hannon (The Divine Comedy)

[@SirHatchporch]

Wow, this works really well this way! Not that I'm surprised. Most of Neil's covers are great.

[@mardenhill]

he just covered the best song ever. word up!

[@minimunchies1me]

great cover...

[@vroomfondel42]

Aw wow, this looked like a blast to be there! I'd love to see Neil live. Why must I be stuck over in North America?!

Take a trip to Britain or Europe! He's touring the Divine Comedy band later this year: thedivinecomedy.com/live. We have 10cc too, music who's art pop creativity beats ELO and rivals the Beatles! 😎 we also have fab Beatles tribute bands with and without orchestra... and a folk Americana group Smith and Brewer who are like the UK's answer to Simon and Garfunkel.. my YT channel showcases all of the above. It will be my first time seeing the DC this year, though... I forgot they existed for 20 years! 😖 ... their last 4 albums are stunning.

I love it xx

[@Wainy16]

As each day passes, as each strand of facial hair grows sporadically, Neil Hannon looks more & more like Shane McGowan every day... Is there any greater compliment to pay to an Irish Man!?!

[@autisticdad]

Where is his cod piece? I always found it an hilarious song.

[@DenizBevan]

Love it! Thanks for posting!

The man is a genius. Pokes fun at himself unlike most of the overated self obsessed self important talentless knobs of today.

[@Groovy26407]

[@hesnoringostarr]

Word up indeed.

[@tunebean508]

I love how he can't keep himself from laughing in the first chorus.

[@stevenator0281]

@Wainy16 Well, there IS that whole dental issue with Shane...

[@mardenhill]

@markkeogh18 it's a funk song, not a hiphop song.

[@falconhead67]

LOL

[@LimeeMiniDress]

@beatlesholic I said the same thing on another vid of his

[@boosh90]

FACT

[@markkeogh18]

Ah yes....take an American rap song and deliver it in a posh english accent....it has to be the easiest way to get a laugh. Or at least a smirk.

[@jamstonjulian6947]

How is it a rap song?
