Wow. Outrageously great. The late, great showman Cab Calloway once said that Kid Creole and the Coconuts' routines are the closest to what he did in his day in the 1930's and 40's.
I was 23 when this song came out, I remember it well. Back then you could watch music videos on a really large video jukebox while waiting for your train in Penn Station, NY. I was an Endicott then and I remain an Endicott to this day, I'm glad I never compromised on that all these years later despite all of my ups and downs!
I remember this video from when I was about 14. I loved it so much, I still don't understand why Kid Creole isn't more popular! I decided to look it, and it still sound just as good as back when I first heard it!
afrochickasaw he paid a price in America having white girls in the band.also though he had his concept before prince,lines got blurred and prince was bigger though August Darnell is just as talented imo
@@chewybunz that ain't what Wendy and Lisa said, if you listen to me softee and other things it's there,also Eric Leeds thought a great deal of kid creole,
@@mrmaxxx94 VERY different musical styles, and Prince was recording years before K.C & the Coconuts existed. Nobody cared that there were white women in the group. Their sound wasn't very commercial compared to much of what was on pop radio at the time.
Crystal i agree with your comment , these guys are pure magic , its like watching a brilliant floor show , theirs so much to watch , i always wanted to be one of these gals xxlol Jane xx 🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
Simply a wonderful production ! The entire team that put this together SHOULD have received an award it if did not. Well, why don't I do it now ! I award Kid Creole and the Coconuts for Endicott: Best Composition, Best Music Video, Best Production on behalf of all the fans out there.
37 years later & I still love this silly song , I can still remember back in the fall of 1986 watching this video in the mornings while getting ready for school
I had the priviledge of attending only 2 concerts of the Kid way back over 20 years ago wish I had seen more. Been listening to his music since 1982 when I was in high school. Oh yeah Endicott, you really appreciate this song once you get married and your wife starts comparing you to so and so's husband and how perfect he is to so and so. ARRRRUGGHHH!!!!!
Endicott don't eat any sweet. Endicott don't eat piggy feet. This song is fun storytelling truly 80's all the way. My roomate laughed at me when I bought this album I have no regrets for spending the 8-10 bucks I paid for it love this song
50-year-old here. I used to hear this record regularly when I worked for Woolworths in London during 2001-2002 and I thought it stood out from the usual stuff that was on their PA system. And now, 20 years later, I watched a collection of French chart hits from 1985 and voilà! I finally get a name for that song and its performer! Merci beaucoup for such a funny, colourful and goofy video!
"Endicott don't eat no sweets.Endicott don't eat piggy feet."Hey I grew up on piggy feet my parents were from mississippi Endicott you don't know what your missing
I saw this on Night Flight, and probably stayed up to watch the repeat. I didn't remember anything about the video, but I did remember the phrasing of the lyrics. I had not heard this in over 25 years. It's amazing how one song can get stuck in your head.
Crikey, I remember Night Flight! I remember so many songs that one would never hear on the radio. Fish heads comes to mind. Kid Creole was a bloody genius.
You are welcome. I'm glad so many people have enjoyed the video. I remember people talking about Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band and Kid Creole and the Coconuts so that originally made me interested in the group.
One of the great music video productions of the MTV era. The tune and lyrics has stayed in my memory since I saw it one time during a retrospective in the mid 1980's. Few others have had the impact of this classic gem.
Carol Colman was soo great ♥... on this vid she "playes" a daphne blue Precision.. but by the sound of it, it is still her Jazz Bass.. her unmistakable, signature sound 🎸
Sad to say but I am" Endicott" ....Great song, a classic, the showmanship, lyrics, beat this song has it all. Pure fun. ahhh to go back to those days. Great post Peace 2 ya
thank you!! I've been trying to find this video literally all my life since it saw I once as a kid. tripped me out back then but I remembered the gist of it all these years
I grew up to Kid Creole. He's simply a genius. 37 years later and I still have this album playing in my car. He has more talent in his pinky than Kanye West has in his hand.
I gather you don't like Kanye to compare Kid to him huh? This is Grand master Flash brother who seem to have followed the path of Prince and Dr Buzzard after leaving his brothers band, but you should have said one of these two not Kanye, Kanye is a rapper.
@@sthpac69 you're mistaking Kidd Creole (who's in jail for murder) with Kid Creole and the coconuts. Totally different people. And, I don't like Kanye. That's why I said what I said
Yeah, I remember that too. I think it was called New York Hot Tracks. It was filmed from a popular nightclub in New York with people dancing in the background. It showcased R&B and latin freestyle music videos. They showed videos that never would have made it on MTV. That show got me interested in freestyle music and going to latin/ hispanic clubs. Ahhh the memories of the 80's.
I remember watching this video on America's Top 10 with Kasey Kassem. I'm also loved to watch New York Hot Tracks with host Carlos Dejesus. I didn't need MTV due to the fact they focused on Rock Music and too much of R and B. To Watch the latest Hip Hop and R and B videos New York Hot Tracks and Video Music Box was the joint back in the day.
Saw it was Kid Creole's birthday today. Happy Birhday Kid. One of the best original bands that came out of the very blah corporate rock 80s. I won a girls heart over (albeit for a very short passionate length of time) because I knew who Kid Creole was. I blamed it on "My Male Curiosity." What else could she expect
As Kid Creole fan i watched this video in summer of 1985 and remembered only vivid colours. Then went to buy the LP in Trieste,Italy.Watching and listening this remember all that and finally realizzed how good this song is with full sound and evergreen lyrics.Thanks for posting!
"Endicott don't wear womens clothes, Endicott don't wear panty hose!..." LOL! We used to make up more crazy lyrics for this song, back when I was taking Radio Broadcasting in College. Really tho, the ACTUAL lyrics were plenty funny! Terrifically fun song and video! Great memories... THANKS FOR POSTING IT, to theinfluencer!
I loved this song as a kid, and was always mystified as to why it wasn't more of a classic familiar eighties tune. It seemed to disappear after it's first cycle on Mtv, and I could never remember the name of the artist. But it would pop up in my head every few years. I think I even searched for it a couple for it a couple of times over the years to no avail. Long story short: This is a damn good song, haven't heard it in years, thanks for posting.
Reminds me of my only one-night stand--my co-worker's younger sister, whom I fell in love with at first site. It was at my co-worker's Halloween Party (1986) and this song was playing when I met her. We danced, talked, drank (not like Endicott) all night and then went to bed and like Endicott, made love hard and long. I gave her my phone number after that and she said she would call. Well, I'm still waiting for that call 30 + years later! Also, a month later, my co-worker took a job on the East Coast (I was living in LA at the time) and I lost touch with him. But this song has special meaning for me.
I heard this back in 1985 when I stayed with my uncle in East Cleveland (when East Cleveland was actually nice) and it stuck in my head. He had MTV and we didn't have cable The video, the song. I love it. It's catchy as hell.
I'll never be like Endicott......You God damn right! call it what you will but I lived my life on my own terms and I will proudly die with nothing in my name but a gracious heart and a lifetime of experiences.
The only way this could be better is if "Kid Creole" was Cab Calloway's Grandson 😂😂😂 I used to watch this when I was 15, now that I'm 55, unmarried, no kids BUT a homeowner with 3 Sports Cars it has a whole new deeper meaning. F### ENDICOTT 😂😂😂😂😂
THANK YOU !!!!! I've been looking for this video for years !!! I've allways loved this song, when i listen to it i'm immediately in a good mood, ready to party !! :))
He Was the "Original" Even before..."Morris Day!" Yet very versatile! I Can't believe he's never mentioned in the line of Prince or Morris Day!! He was way before them!! I Loved this group. And those "Hott ladies!" The One reminds me of Alice on "The Honeymooners!"
wow, where is is kid and the coconuts, it's been years!! I love these guys. Its great going back to the fun and not so crazy days, thanks for the memories. Please post anything else on kid and the coconuts.
Did I like King Creole and The Coconuts? No, I loved 'em! The '80's was a great decade for me. Thanks for the upload of the original vid! Even more , I like his side kick.
I was a big fan of Kid Creole and the Coconuts album "Wiseguy" from 1982. When this video came out around 85 I had a friend who used to ask me "Hey Brad you seen that Endicott video yet?" Not only had I never seen it but I never heard it until today. Sadly that friend died some years ago when he fell from a window 7 stories up. R.I.P. T.Y. Jordan. BTW ...I am a lot like Endicott.
The very first time that I saw this video I was at the Hassler Roma Hotel in Rome Italy. We had just finished a cruise from Venice to Rome (basically around the boot of Italy), with ports of call in the former Yugoslavia, Greece, Sicily, Naples, and ending up in Rome.
I'm glad that so many people have enjoyed this video.
Kid Creole and The Coconuts are one of a kind.
Saw them at SUNY Albany in 87.
Thank you, Carl Rock, for uploading this great video!!!!
Kid Creole, was so far ahead of his time!!
thank you for posting....still so good!!
I actually got a kick out of this song because it's my actual last name!
Endicott don't dig 240p. Endicott wants HDTV.
+MaximGhost Been waiting for a higher quality version for years. :)
+MaximGhost Endicott is a blurry mess. Endicott don't like VHS.
f0rmaggi0 hahaha .. good one.
Endicott's not like other guys. Endicott's blurry and hurts my eyes.
Well that's all we had back then deal with it lol
Saw this video once (ONCE) at 3am on a late Saturday night on MTV, and not again for another 30 friggin' years. Thank you TH-cam.
Same. Saw this once late night 20 years ago and just randomly remembered it lol
That’s amazing
Same! Late night at 3am on MTV. I tried looking it up for years and couldn’t find it. I thought maybe I just dreamt it up.
Stick to rapping pal
Four years late but such a true statement. One time on MTV back in the day. Thank goodness for TH-cam.
Wow. Outrageously great. The late, great showman Cab Calloway once said that Kid Creole and the Coconuts' routines are the closest to what he did in his day in the 1930's and 40's.
Kid Creole is on record as saying his persona is based from Cab Calloway.
Gervaze Joseph ......Truthful
@@bigreed43 I'm glad he said it. James Brown also owes Cab Calloway some gratitude.
Yes, and amazingly, Calloway lived long enough to see Kid Creole's success. He even appeared in a Janet Jackson video in the early 90s!
And he was in the Blues Brothers of course.
I was 23 when this song came out, I remember it well. Back then you could watch music videos on a really large video jukebox while waiting for your train in Penn Station, NY. I was an Endicott then and I remain an Endicott to this day, I'm glad I never compromised on that all these years later despite all of my ups and downs!
I was 29

evangeline48 💜Well, Prince Rogers Nelson came along and... that’s a wrap Kid Creole
@@mrmaxxx94 I personally think that Prince and Kid Creole are an apples/oranges comparison.
@@chewybunz that ain't what Wendy and Lisa said, if you listen to me softee and other things it's there,also Eric Leeds thought a great deal of kid creole,

I haven't heard this song for decades, but I have always remembered the phrase "Why can't you be like Endicott?"
Ha! You too???
"cause I'm freeeee. Free of any made-to-order liabilities!"
hebneh that is my towns name
"....Endicott don't eat any meat...
Endicott don't eat piggy feet".
RIP Bongo Eddie.
LOVE THIS SONG!!! They were so unique and fun; great hooks, wacky sets and tropical outfits. Thanks for posting!
Why can"t you be like like Endicott? th-cam.com/video/C3xU0fnjUcg/w-d-xo.html
One of the cutest videos ever! Back when videos were pure fun!
Loving that smack tamboine on dat ass
I never forgot the title and subject matter of this video. Brilliantly witty and ahead of its time. The guy playing Endicott is hilarious!😂
Yep, he stole the show :))
Underrated band. Always liked them.
Crystal i agree with your comment , these guys are pure magic , its like watching a brilliant floor show , theirs so much to watch , i always wanted to be one of these gals xxlol Jane xx 🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
Criminally so, as was DR BUZZARD'S ORIGINAL SAVANNAH BAND which Darnell August/KID CREOLE came out of. Great stuff. 🔥
Happy 73rd Birthday Kid Creole!(Born August 12, 1950)😃🥳🎂🎉🎊🎈🎁🍾🥂👍🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
Too cool, I'm getting addicted to this video...🤩
Simply a wonderful production ! The entire team that put this together SHOULD have received an award it if did not. Well, why don't I do it now ! I award Kid Creole and the Coconuts for Endicott: Best Composition, Best Music Video, Best Production on behalf of all the fans out there.
Fucking A
I'm with it, I must admit it! 🏆🏆
Thank you! I was one of the producers and James Lemmo directed, shot and helped Kid with the concept.
This thread is getting historic.@@MS10289

Funny you mentioned that. This song was a major hit in France
So you ‘don’t keep your body clean.’ Like most New Yorkers…
THIS is the version I remember seeing on TV way back when I was at Purdue!
Kid Creole and The Coconuts were underrated! I wonder why they didn't get more press coverage. They're great!
"Endicott don't eat no sweets.Endicott don't eat piggy feet."Hey I grew up on piggy feet my parents were from mississippi Endicott you don't know what your missing
The people that loved them loved them hard, to this day
I think a lot of the reason was because they didnt fit neatly into a genre.
Saw these guys yesterday. Awesome gig :))).
CREOLE legacy still lives 2022

This is SMART pop. Every physicist loved this.

but by the sound of it, it is still her Jazz Bass.. her unmistakable, signature sound 🎸
Cameo's "Candy" baseline always reminds me of this.
Drummer not too shabby either. This song just slays.
The Drums!
"Why can't you be like Endicott?"
That jingle will be bouncing around in my head for months.... for years I hope! Thank you.
Kid Creole and the Coconuts has always been very entertaining to me!!! And "Endicott" was (is) one of my favorite videos.
This takes me back to the 80's when mtv was cool
Douglas Quaid , oh you mean when MTV played music?
Has been in my head nonstop since the day it dropped and I don’t know why I still remember this record
That band is awesome! Love the sax! I appreciate real instruments!
Dr Buzzard and the Original Savannah Band
This was and still is 1 of my favorite Kid Creole and the Coconuts tunes.
Stool pigeon, Gina Gina and especially Darrio
A lot more where that came from

This was one of my favorite videos way back in the day. Dr. Demento would jam this video every night.
Such a great video and the song is a total ear worm.
He's reading "In praise of Older Women"😄
always loved this tune. one of my favorite 80's jams!
Wow, what a blast from the past, I had totally forgotten this gem. So glad to hear it again.

Thank you for posting, brother!!!
Superb track that still sounds fresh today- those latin beats man!
Love his argument why he can't be like Endicott; to wit, "Owwww!"
This is such a great video. I love the acting and the artistry.
Kid Creole was playing in all that snow!
So many layers of meaning in this tune!
I remember seeing this back on Night Tracks. Poor persons MTV.

vxy357 So true. It was called New York Hot Tracks (or Traks). It came on channel 7. Good memories.
"Poor persons"? Why? You had to order cable to get either one.
Saw it was Kid Creole's birthday today. Happy Birhday Kid. One of the best original bands that came out of the very blah corporate rock 80s. I won a girls heart over (albeit for a very short passionate length of time) because I knew who Kid Creole was. I blamed it on "My Male Curiosity." What else could she expect
Haha that's awesome
Class act, wish I would have seen them live back in the day.
As Kid Creole fan i watched this video in summer of 1985 and remembered only vivid colours.
Then went to buy the LP in Trieste,Italy.Watching and listening this remember all that and finally realizzed how good this song is with full sound and evergreen lyrics.Thanks for posting!
Classic! Loved August Darnell be it with Kid Creole or Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band.
august darnell just,a genius!!!!
I agree with you my dear 😉
Love this - a nice retrofitting of 40's/3rly 50's big band with some touches of modern funk. What a great combo for dance music.
"Endicott don't wear womens clothes, Endicott don't wear panty hose!..." LOL!
We used to make up more crazy lyrics for this song, back when I was taking Radio Broadcasting in College. Really tho, the ACTUAL lyrics were plenty funny!
Terrifically fun song and video!
Great memories... THANKS FOR POSTING IT, to theinfluencer!
😐
the best!!!! saw live in 1986 saint andrews hall in detroit
I loved this song as a kid, and was always mystified as to why it wasn't more of a classic familiar eighties tune. It seemed to disappear after it's first cycle on Mtv, and I could never remember the name of the artist. But it would pop up in my head every few years. I think I even searched for it a couple for it a couple of times over the years to no avail.
Long story short: This is a damn good song, haven't heard it in years, thanks for posting.
MTV was never very friendly to black artists until Rap & Hip-Hop came along.
Kid Creole always loosely reminded me of Morris Day 😊 I feel like he would have fit with The Time quite well.
Yep, I always thought they were a mix of The Time and Fishbone.
But that was a different time... and a different day. Sorry, couldn't resist, lol.
Kid creole pre dates morris day
morris day took kid creole's stick
The Kid, I liked. Morris Day, I could do without.
I had a random dream about this song! I had to play this as soon as I woke up.
I never knew that video existed. It had been 30 years.

You could tell they were having fun playing.
And 40 years later I still have no idea what's Tribunal Soul. 😅😅😅
‘Endicott loves Tribena so,

Remember this awesome tune - Charlie Chaplin meets Prince and its VERY funky!!
nails it.
Not to be confused with Kidd Creole, aka Nathaniel Glover, who was just convicted of manslaughter. (Whew!)
I did and was shocked told people too oh well
Awesome,... thanks for uploading this classic!
I hear a lot of prince in this production-wise❤❤❤❤
Welcome! I'm glad that this video brings back memories for a lot of people.
WHAT A CLASSIC SONG FROM 1985. I LOVE THIS SONG
This song made my list of top fifty all time songs. I have been missing it on youtube. Thanks.
They are having too much fun. Great band.
I remembered watching this video. It was the past of a lifetime.
The only way this could be better is if "Kid Creole" was Cab Calloway's Grandson 😂😂😂
I used to watch this when I was 15, now that I'm 55, unmarried, no kids BUT a homeowner with 3 Sports Cars it has a whole new deeper meaning. F### ENDICOTT 😂😂😂😂😂
thank you so much...I saw them
live..EXPO 86 Vancouver. 2 days in a row... THE BEST....they never came back to the west coast
One of the best music videos ever, the choreography in this is fantstic.
It's soooo gooood to see this again. OMG there were some fun nights watching this with a good friend who isn't here anymore. Thanks for posting it!
One of the band's very best videos for sure.....August soooo perfect a cartoon playboy....really no one does it better.
Wow! What a blast from the past! Thanks for posting this!

When this song came out the woman I lived with called me Endicott. She could never make me Endicott.
