Me and a few of my mates met him in a pub in Middleton, in the mid 90s. I was a bit wary of speaking to him initially, thought he might be a bit corky and sarcastic tbh. By 10 o'clock he was buying us rounds of drinks, he was such a lovely guy. They say never meet your heroes. Well I'm sure glad I did. RIP legend!!!!
he could have been so big but did not want it he was so loved
Was it the Brunswick by any chance?
I'm a Midlander, Notts, and was in Camden. Ex psychobilly, and there was this guy who was the Meteors drummer. I mentioned that back in the day I was into the Meteors and got the cold shoulder. A mate walked in, building trade, and asked what was up. I told him the guy was a cunt. He went for him.
great story. rip MES.
I knew one of the band that was Manchester to a degree, 🙏
The well spring from
which Fontaines DC flowed out from. And many more. Legend.
Among the many reasons as to why this deserves to be remembered forever is the fact that Mark sings "I can't get over ye" rather than "...you". Brilliant, much-missed gentleman.
A world without Mark is a hollow world. A sad world. Brix is welcome to haunt me any day !
RIP Mark, you were a constant during the 80s for me
killer cover version! rip MES. love Brix in this one. she's so beautiful...
This morning, I actually heard the original of this song on the radio. Pulled me out of my sleep.
I wish Marcia was featured more in the videos, shes stunning.
Impossible to be cooler than this song and video
I wish Brix would have haunted my gaff
The greatest pop star in British music history. Nobody can touch him.
Not even close
? WTF HEEHEE YOUR CALLING MARK A POP STAR ? HAHAHA...
Definitely the best pop band.
the fall was always a consistent underground force, not even close to pop
Too right!
Brix, what a beauty
RIP Mark 1957-2018 You are still a legend.
What a great band. I miss you mark. 💥
A most peculiar man from Manchester. His death bummed me out because it was barely mentioned in "Rock Press"of today. A Genius he was.
Salford
Prestwich
@Sleeping I live in the 🇺🇸
His death was mentioned in Germany very often. They have so many fans here.
the fall are superb,but for me,they fukn murdered this one
This is absolutely fucking brilliant
Priceless..hope your kicking up a fuss somewhere...RIP.
I will go to my grave without knowing the lyrics to every one of the Fall's songs and that's just going to have to be ok, even though I've tried to keep up since 1979.
If it's any consolation too you, neither did Mark E Smith
@@TheColeman83 Cheers 👍
I love this version, one of my favourites.
What an ace song and video
Looks like the woodthorpe pub in Prestwich
Gotta love Brix Smith!
Always loved the FALL gutted when Mark E Smith died music world a poorer place without him .... Classic cover of Motown legend R Dean Taylors classic "There's a ghost in my house " RESPECT 🙏.
The days when talent and a dodgy video counted, such great times.
Man he looks so fucking young in this. Were all for the chop in the end though.
The effects of the chain smoking hadn't caught up to Mark yet.
Rip Mark, a real childhood hero. Love you fella.
RIP Mark E Smith. You will be missed :(
sad
no you wont you were crap.
sunnygovan7 Yep.....if anyone was a talent free zone, it was him. His pseudo-American "singing" voice was pathetic. 🤔😏😂😂
@@jamesy1955 The Fall were championed by John Peel. Far better bands like Green on Red were not. If the Fall come on the radio I will switch channels cause that guys voice makes me cringe.
I bet the band enjoyed lobbing them pots at Smith's head.
GROUP not band. The Fall were a GROUP. MES said it relentlessly. You are clearly not a Fall fan
Yes, I agree, you can see the way the cups smash they are thrown with real venom, Smith was always known as a hard Man to get on with, or as ian Broudie said an Awkward git.
This version of The Fall was as good as any Indie band . Some would say even better.
Mark e Smith rip thanks for the music
Excellent music,
My Granny played Bongos on this
YOUR SPECTER'S IN MY HEART...(R.I.P, Mark E. Smith).
Mark E Smith RIP was a fucking genius, wish I saw The Fall live now....
Hate this song all you want, say it's not as good as R. Dean Taylor's version all you want; I think it's great fun, with an adorable video, too. And, thinking about the lyrics (even though I know Smith didn't write them), I realize what this song is: it's taking the ghosts/demons/hauntings leitmotif of many of the Fall's earlier songs (c.f "Spectre Vs. Rector", "A Figure Walks", "City Hobgoblins", etc.) and playing it not for thrills'n'chills or ominousness, but just for cute campy fun instead. I think that's why Smith wanted to cover this song, in other words: because it allowed him to burlesque the concept of GHOSTLINESS and HAUNTEDNESS that so fascinated him. And of course, besides being a song that uses ghosts as a metaphor, it's also a song about the dissolution of a relationship, and Smith's marriage to Brixie was already on the rocks by the time this song was recorded. So there's that. The video, for all its cuteness, is another of Brixie's laughing-on-the-outside-and-crying-on-the-inside manifestations (c.f her performance throughout I AM CURIOUS ORANGE, which I take to be one of her finest hours).
Adorably shit video for a great track!
Victoria het zelfde.
Northern soul
My old uncle Joe once sang this song on karaoke while he was drunk as fuck .. Uncanny how he sang the same as Smith but never got the fame and glory of him .. Strange that
ha ha!😀
I might have also done this...
Margaret Moore because your uncle Joe didn't write the fall's songs
MES didn't write Holland, Dozier, Holland's songs, either!
... obviously, he was not appreciated
Just something else . Elsie .
If there was ever an advertisement for why odd looking men with some musical talent should start a band it's this video.
Kevin McLaughlin I don’t get how he’s odd looking ?
definitely batting merrins
I like it very good well done
Great picture quality
An ever elegant Mark sings
I feel ashamed that I discovered this version only yesterday.
Me deu até arrepio! Rip Mark
Legends never die RIP MES
Replacing Coffee cup with ‘Tea cup’ , masterstroke
Least he took the P out of himself! Wythenshawe we dere! Manchester forever! UK 🇬🇧
Brilliant
The Fall forever. Saw them in the early 80ies in St. Gallen. Location unknown (help me) ... was pretty stoned, I think.
RIP R Dean Taylor ;-(
I can't hide
Really similar guitar riff to You Only Live Twice by The Scientists, which came out only a year before
"Though we're far apart,/Your SPECTER's in my heart..." That's Mark E. Smith's revision of R. Dean Taylor's lyric; Taylor didn't say "specter" he said "you're always in my heart..." Interesting...
Taylor didn't say 'ye' either, which shows that Smith was a bit thick because 'ye' is an archaic PLURAL of 'you', but he's clearly only singing about one person in this song!
hmm, maybe he isn't talking about one person. is the zeitgeist one person? anyway, ur comment is a bit needlessly nasty innit? he's clearly wasn't thick. 'GOD DAMN the pedantic Walsh!' :)
Thurr's a Wee Ghostie in ma Hoose, the Noo!
Mark E. Smith is a national treasure.
He is an international treasure.
Best bring a shovel then.
I wouldn't quite go that far!
He is treasured by me and a handful of like minded open to different kinds types that 8-21 years ago i played for them amd got them hooked on all things The Fall way down in the desert here in muthaphukin Ar-I-Z-O-N-A.
World wide Pop Demi GOD *,,, ,,⭐ Treasure.
And is it chipping away at the tabooness that between Mr. Smith and our dude Lemmy that comically epic in lengths of habit and im sure amounts in general afa daily use go meth in certain people seems to have hardly any at all negative results like fiking evwr they juat made qlbum after quality album amd toured and wrote amd toured amd hired new members and fuked amd wrote and
I miss the Fall, still great legacy
Hope they play this at his funeral I think he would love the irony of it....RIP.
what am I gonna do...ha ha live with it I suppose. it's quite friendly although rather possessive he he 😂
I would like to state right here and right now that I have never been a member of The Fall.
lucky manchester he is amazing
Could have been mainstream... but not Mark's way... Bless him.
Classic Mark and her...
Mark E Smith - Martin Fry shirt, actually singing, pulled a wife several divisions above him. As Terry Wogan once said to George Best, where did it all go wrong? :-D
Seen Mark E Smith in 1987 tucking into a 🥓 bacon butty at Gail's Cafe in Weatherfield
I thought it was the pub on the Well Green in Hale Barns
you're an uncanny reminder
of my old, sickening ways.
a sullen specter which has
taken up residence within the constraints
of my tortured mind
An inspired choice by The Fall. The original is good and this cover version is just as good.
The original is better. This production is a relative mess.
@@CrankCase08agree
'Check the record. Check the guy's track record.' Hope they write that on his headstone.
He was not appreciated
Richard and Judy were very different in the 1980s.
The Fall Rule!
RIP Mark
Bloody hell that's the first time I've ever seen Mark sober .
Haha he probably only had half a bottle of whisky before this video.
R.I.P Mark
Am I the only person who thinks Brix E Smith and the keyboardist are hot as fuck?
No.
Oh no. Brixie and Marcia Schofield are gorgeous. They always were. Brix looks so incredible here, I can never get over it.
Oh no. Brixie and Marcia Schofield are gorgeous. They always were. Brixie looks especially great here, in her little white slip-dress and two-tone hair, playacting a cheeky I-DREAM-OF-GENIE disappearing ghost. It's all so adorable; the whole video. Marcia Schofield's great too, but my heart belongs to Brixie.
No. That is why MES had them in the band. Both were very good looking and brought some sex appeal to the band.
RIP
RIP Mark E Smith
RIP Mark E. Smith.
Best cover ever!
Yeah, I think so too. A lot of people say it's the worst, but you and me both know they're wrong.
I agree with you. Great rock 'n' rollers cover old songs and make them their own.
Both versions are great in different ways, the original is sang well but Mark E Smith's minimalism with the melody is great too (sometimes less is more) and the guitars, bass,drums and keyboards all sound great too.
To me this is the definitive line up of The Fall!
Just discovered x
That dress though....
Mark E Smith (5 March 1957 - 24 January 2018) Lead singer , founder in 1976 & only constant member since ...
excellentio
Rip Mark E Smith
Well I'd never heard this version of this song before;thankfully.
R.I.P Mark... I was shocked when I heard he died..
It was Brix's idea to put a bit of pop in their sound,works well.Good version.He had some fit women in his band (and his bed),
i thought he was from glasgow i think he is brilliant
manchester :)
The man, pissed it all away.
I saw them play choc Stock at the marquee in London, jeez, was it even real?
I think that the Fall were an acquired taste! My brother was a massive fan, but I didn't really get it, they didn't seem bothered about any commercial success, actually I've seen the band live twice during the '80s, and both times were magnificent..
Remember this particular song performed live and audience going totally haywire! RIP. M.E.S.
Other than the vocal, this could totally be a b-side from the last Smiths album. I know the Fall were around earlier, but there's an obvious Marr influence in the arrangement and production.
It's actually really close in sound to the production on the original version of the tune by R. Dean Taylor, a Dozier-Holland Motown release from 1966.
mister payne Thanks. I don't know the original. But Marr, I'm sure, was influenced by a lot of that stuff, so that's probably what I'm hearing.
I'll miss Mark E Smith's music.
Damn good copy, but I wish he put more of his own slant on it
Lard on the bass
x
RIP.
I don't know how i feel about this lol I love the fact he doesn't give a fuck though. Also he resembles Johnny Cash.
Dapper MES.
Mark E Smith is the Dick Clark of punk,
Thats the woodthorpe pub near heaton park.Does mark e smith still drink there, or ones in prestwich ?
Yes and yes.
R. Dean Taylor - There's A Ghost In My House ===done right
