One of the most ironic events in music history. A song that was a spoof and a parody of the fashion world, became iconic and played in every single catwalk, night club and party around the world. And Fred, who was making fun of the people who acted like they were too sexy, became a sex symbol himself.
Really? Being from Holland and in high school at the time, we didn't think much of it at all 😂 My pop magazine had posters of them in it; they were idols! :-)

@@mamorot7110 What do you mean " what?" We made fun of this song but I must admit out of ignorance. If I had k own his intention in the lyrics I would have responded differently.
This song was supposed to spoof arrogant, over-confident and egotistical people who thought they were hotter than everybody else in the room. It went over a LOT of people's heads back in the day, but I laughed every time I heard it. STILL incredibly catchy to this day and can still be heard in TV commercials today too.
Seriously? People didn't get it? I was usually the last to get a joke so I'm in the habit of figuring everyone gets the joke if I do. And I was a teenager then so I was even slower. But it's obvious from the lyrics and the video that they were goofing around.
The reason for the song was that Richard Fairbrass (the singer) and the other band members used to work out at a gym next to a modelling agency, and would often laugh at the pretentious models who came in and just admired themselves in the mirror.
@@stevecarter8810 That happens a lot. :-) Electric Light Orchestra's "Don't Bring Me Down" was basically thrown together by Jeff Lynne at the last minute, too; the album ("Discovery") was running a bit short on side 2, and he felt like it needed one more song to fill it out, so he just banged it out in the studio practically overnight, no orchestration, just synthesizer and guitars and a drum loop recycled from an unused take of a different song -- and it became a huge hit for them. "Black Water" by The Doobie Brothers is another one -- no one, not even Patrick Simmons (who wrote it), expected much from it when they recorded it; it was just a thing he felt like doing and they put it on the album because, hey, why not? It ended up as the "B"-side of the single which they (and the record company) thought would be the hit song from the album... and the "A" side hardly got any airplay after the first week or two, while any time a DJ at one of the free-form AOR stations played the B-side they got buried with calls from listeners requesting to hear "Black Water" again and again, and the record company had to rush-produce a new 45 single with "Black Water" as the A-side to meet the demand. :-)
I seem to remember them commenting that this song was meant to be a slam against people that thought they were cooler than everyone else. But it's so catchy it gets stuck in your head. From now on, whenever someone says the phrase "too sexy" you'll start humming this song. lol
Anytime I hear this song (thanks, J) it sticks so much that anytime I hear anybody say "too ___" the tune pops into my head. If I hear "I'm too tired to cook" my head goes "I'm too tired to cook this, Too tired to cook this; Too tired. I'm too tired to look up; Too tired to look up; Too tired." Etc. So it's gonna be a long day of my brain hearing this song!
That's nothing. Fight Club was written by a gay man. The story is a criticism of toxic masculinity. Many morons see the masculinity depicted in the movie as something to admire and emulate.
I once went to a very formal military ball. The men in their formal uniforms, complete with kilts, ended up dancing on the tables to this song. Still one of my favourite memories of all time.
Lies, it was 1991 and we were all on the dance floor with our baggy satin shirts, tucked into our jeans... no 90s outfit is complete without hightop white sneakers. 😂
you are very much correct, Simone Smit........I remember sitting in a boring meeting at work thinking, "I'm......too sexy for this meeting......too sexy for this job"......yes indeed.
I love this song, it's a tongue-in-cheek stab at the beauty culture and I think it's hilarious! Guy has a great sense of humor I think. "I'm too sexy for my cat, too sexy for my cat, oh pussy cat!" ROFL!!!
Exactly. The song is just a total parody/mockery of runway supermodels...who reached ENORMOUS popularity during this time (Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, Claudia Schiffer etc)
In the 80's, supermodels were at their peak. This was a little dig at that. These guys were not asking to be taken that seriously, just a bit of fun you could dance to.
Having grown up with this song it’s funny to think that people don’t know it 😅 This is a hilarious video! It’s a tune though and I won’t hear otherwise!
Oh, this is what I love about reaction videos. That look on your face, Jayvee. Don't worry I always laughed at this but you made me laugh harder all the way through. Trying to dance to it. This reaction was worth a second look. Too funny.

I watch a lot of your stuff but your reaction to this had me laughing in tears. your crack me up man. keep reviewing youre a pleasure to watch and listen too.
When this was out I was on a roadtrip across the USA, and we had it on a mixtape that was played every day in the car. As such, I'm embarrassed to say, in every visitor book we came across I wrote 'I'm too sexy for your [whatever it was]'. Hotel: 'I'm too sexy for your hotel.' Disney: 'I'm too sexy for your park'. Grand Canyon: 'I'm too sexy for your canyon.' Thing was, I don't think it had been released in the US yet. God knows what anyone thought. I was not too sexy for any of it. I was not sexy at all.
This is one of the most unique and personality heavy songs ever recorded. Not my taste in music but jeeeez it's so catchy and has a lot of humour. Nobody ever forgets this song, that has to be a credit to them.
I can never hear this song without remembering my late Uncle, he was a good looking guy with a since of humor and I remember him liking and even singing this song when it came out. RIP to a great guy

The 90s had so many different types of music. EVERYTHING was up for grabs. Grunge, Alternate, Rap, Gangster Rap, R&B, Pop, Country, Metal, Boy Bands, Techno, Trance and some- like this, we have NO IDEA what the hell it is, but we really didn't care! This was when color, sex etc just didn't matter at all. You like it- you just rocked it!
These guys are fabulous! Fred used to have a gym just off the Fulham rd Chelsea London we all used to all hang out there. It's all very tongue in cheek with them! Very fun! ❤🙌
The first time I heard this song, I was a teenager and riding to church with my parents and siblings and we were listening to the Top 40 and it came on as a new release and we listened, then there was a pause and then we all started laughing and didn't stop til we got out of the car. You seemed to enjoy it as much as we did. :P
Right Said Fred was the title of a hit comedy song by Bernard Cribbins in the 1960s about 2 guys trying to move an unknown piece of furniture with lines like "We took off all the handles and the thing wot held the candles".

He was making a satirical song about models/celebrities/musicians and how they think they gods amongst men. I remember when this song came out & people didn't really get it. But since the age of selfies, "reality" shows, & most of social media I think people can now grasp the message of how there are so many of these vain asshats that are walking around.

Milan, New York and Tokyo, Japan are places with frequent fashion shows and also cities where fashion models often congregate. This guy is saying he is better looking than all the fashion models in all the big cities.
I knew you would laugh at this song, I laugh whenever I hear this and I love to laugh. My late Mums face was so funny when she heard this, her jaw literally dropped and then she started laughing till she cried, she had terrible depression at the time and this seemed to lift her spirits especially when one of my siblings who couldn't sing would strut around the room. A wonderful reaction that will hopefully stay with me. God bless you sweetheart, love hugs and peace Mary-Ellen UK
This song was everywhere back in the day... now you need to do "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba... maybe throw in some "Informer" by Snow... and sprinkle on some "Scatman (ski-ba-bop-ba-dop-bop)" by Scatman John
This is the song we connected to every jerk that we came across that passed us a pick up line. Yeah... some songs .. you just can’t fight.. just gotta roll with how ridiculous it is.. lol 😝
When I was deployed to Iraq this song came on the radio, and it was stuck in my head all day, lol. Full battle rattle, armed to the teath.... (I'm to sexy for my shirt)...
...Hmm, maybe not born yet? At least, he looks a bit too young to have been around when this bop was earworming us all back in 1991! (It's actually kind of reassuring to know there are people out there who WEREN'T scarred for life by how ubiquitous this song got for a while there... 😋)
@@annastevens1526 You don’t have to have been born in the era concerned to know their songs. I know many, many songs of past eras that I wasn’t born in. It’s called being interested in music!
@@xdra31 True. But this song was a one off and Right Said Fred is a one-hit wonder. People in their twenties or teens aren't going to be exposed to them as much. I know people who don't know who Ronnie James Dio is, but they listen to Killswitch Engage.
OMG😂 After all the craziness and violence in the last week we’ve all had... I needed this AND YOUR REACTION!!!! 😅😂🤣😂🤣😅 ....too freaking hilarious!! Take care!!
Your reaction really made me laugh. He's not saying HE'S too sexy, he's taking a rise out of people who think they are. It's what, 30 years old. this track and what he's singing about is still true now - over confident jerks. But he makes it fun.
The laugh is contagious and your reaction is everything. This song was so popular when I was a little girl. It’s been a while since and hearing those lyrics at an adult....wow. 😂😂😂😂
This is the earliest I’ve ever commented! Happy New Year everybody. JayVee you were the best thing about 2020! This guy also was a featured player in the band in David Bowie’s Blue Jean video. Artist for next year...John Cougar Mellencamp.
this was a light-hearted slam on the vapid personalities that propped-up "image-culture" such as modeling and society's emphasis on looks over substance -- by creating a song that was the same thing. Pretty brilliant as far as cultural-parodies goes.
One of the most ironic events in music history. A song that was a spoof and a parody of the fashion world, became iconic and played in every single catwalk, night club and party around the world.

If I'm not mistaken, Right Said Fred wrote this song as a satirical poke _(shade)_ about some snobby models that worked out at his gym...

The Gym was in Putney
This was number 1 in Australia. He is having a go at people who think they are all that. We loved it

When my son was smaller, he had a cold that lowered his voice and he started singing this song. I wish I would have filmed it.
Milan, New York and Tokyo, Japan are places with frequent fashion shows and also cities where fashion models often congregate. This guy is saying he is better looking than all the fashion models in all the big cities.
No, the song is a piss take of that scene.
5:09 "This man too sexy for everybody. Ain't nobody gonna be left" lol
I think of my cat every time I hear this song 🎶🐈😽😎
This is freaking hilarious, nice choice! Way to start the new year with a big smile.
This song pokes fun at models and the modelling industry. Phil Collins did a song in the same vein called “ I Can’t Dance”.
Cough cough ahem ahem.....that wasn't Phil Collins....it was GENESIS
You are so priceless! What a great reaction to a totally tongue-in-cheek song!
I knew you would laugh at this song, I laugh whenever I hear this and I love to laugh. My late Mums face was so funny when she heard this, her jaw literally dropped and then she started laughing till she cried, she had terrible depression at the time and this seemed to lift her spirits especially when one of my siblings who couldn't sing would strut around the room. A wonderful reaction that will hopefully stay with me. God bless you sweetheart, love hugs and peace Mary-Ellen UK
The look on your face when he started singing priceless 😂
This song was everywhere back in the day... now you need to do "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba... maybe throw in some "Informer" by Snow... and sprinkle on some "Scatman (ski-ba-bop-ba-dop-bop)" by Scatman John
YES!!! to all 3! :-)
Noooooooo! 😂
Need to look for some light sticks yeah
I don't have enough LSD for that playlist.
TheRedWaltz24: And watch him actually catch the lyrics to Informer.
This has to be best reaction of anything ever lol. Your face when it kicks if 😂😂
We love setting you up. 😂😂😂😂 Us 80’s fools!!! Loved this shit!! Forgot thinking for 4 minutes and just strut around like a fool! 🤣
This is the song we connected to every jerk that we came across that passed us a pick up line. Yeah... some songs .. you just can’t fight.. just gotta roll with how ridiculous it is.. lol 😝
At first I was pissed that I am going to have this song in my head for the next 13 weeks but now I'm living for it #2021
Lady Madonna, & Jack & Diane do that to me- & I **hate** them...
Every single person on Love Island for sure!
A rare first watch that actually looks like a first watch! Priceless! 🤣
When I was deployed to Iraq this song came on the radio, and it was stuck in my head all day, lol. Full battle rattle, armed to the teath.... (I'm to sexy for my shirt)...
I'm not even done watching. Your reaction to the 1st verse is priceless. Just priceless 😂
I have tears from laughing at this! Happy New Year! 😂🤣
My question is how does no one in these reaction vids know these iconic songs LMAO? Like where were you all your life??? 😂🤷♀️
Righttttt...
...Hmm, maybe not born yet? At least, he looks a bit too young to have been around when this bop was earworming us all back in 1991! (It's actually kind of reassuring to know there are people out there who WEREN'T scarred for life by how ubiquitous this song got for a while there... 😋)
@@annastevens1526 You don’t have to have been born in the era concerned to know their songs. I know many, many songs of past eras that I wasn’t born in. It’s called being interested in music!
@@xdra31 True.
But this song was a one off and Right Said Fred is a one-hit wonder.
People in their twenties or teens aren't going to be exposed to them as much.
I know people who don't know who Ronnie James Dio is, but they listen to Killswitch Engage.
we're old. that's why 🤣🤣🤣
OMG😂 After all the craziness and violence in the last week we’ve all had... I needed this AND YOUR REACTION!!!! 😅😂🤣😂🤣😅 ....too freaking hilarious!!
Take care!!
Your reaction really made me laugh. He's not saying HE'S too sexy, he's taking a rise out of people who think they are. It's what, 30 years old. this track and what he's singing about is still true now - over confident jerks. But he makes it fun.
The laugh is contagious and your reaction is everything. This song was so popular when I was a little girl. It’s been a while since and hearing those lyrics at an adult....wow. 😂😂😂😂
I had so much fun dancing along with your astonishment and remembering the day 😄
Funny watching him chair dancing to this.
Such a fun song.
We all thought , this was about people that thought THEY were all that , and they weren't.
You got that right!
This is the earliest I’ve ever commented! Happy New Year everybody. JayVee you were the best thing about 2020! This guy also was a featured player in the band in David Bowie’s Blue Jean video. Artist for next year...John Cougar Mellencamp.
One of my favorite Bowie songs
One of my favorites too. Great video!! 🤘💖
Bust out the "rain on the scarecrow" by John cougar mellencamp
RSF: ...I'm too sexy for my shirt--
Jayvon: What?
*snort* Such a great confused look.
Your reaction just completely cracked me up when he started singing. Priceless!
Your reaction made my night. What a great way to cap off 2020, just laughing at the ridiculousness of it all.
this was a light-hearted slam on the vapid personalities that propped-up "image-culture" such as modeling and society's emphasis on looks over substance -- by creating a song that was the same thing. Pretty brilliant as far as cultural-parodies goes.
Omgosh...I absolutely love your reaction! You had me laughing right along with you😂🤣😂🤣
It was a novelty song. That's why its a one hit wonder! But it still fills the dance floor at parties even now.!!
