OMG I knew I wasn't dreaming about this song. In high school, me and my friends had to do a performance to this song in our Drama class x Brings back some good memories x
I think a lot of people miss the point of this song (and the clip). It's not so much an attempt to modernise the song, but an more an attempt to satirise modern music and music videos.
Actually you have all got it wrong...several artists were given a task to pick a Noel Coward song and put their own spin on it, and it was for the AIDS charity and the CD is called Red Hot and Blue........
that was cole porter songs, this isn't from that. you might be thinking of debbie harry & iggy pop doing "well did you evah" ("what a swell party this is"), which is sort of similar.
Suddenly thought of this song today. The spoken bits are still the best.
something we knew already , but again proving that Neil Hannon can turn his hand to anything... the guy is a genius.
Noel Coward meets Underworld.,....such a cool idea! Always loved this!
I remember hearing this for the first time on the chart show and thinking ‘wow… the Divine Comedy have gone Underworld’
This song kills when you're trying to introduce people to The Divine Comedy - BRILLIANT.
Neil is a genius - this is amazing and I couldn’t have liked it more ❤️🌹
the best music video ever made. Fantastic!
LOVE this track. Haven't heard it in years! Pure genius...

one of the best transitions ever on a song.. at 3.04 .
Most original and clever video ever!
probably The Divine Comedy’s only techno / dance song! 👌🏻
Indie goes dance music... I quite like it Neil 👍🏻
Love it, forgot it existed. Thanks for uploading
Never knew there was a video for this! Love it! Thank you!
Fabulous Ha ha , I couldn't have liked it more

Neil singing about silly high society, brilliant!!!
One of the best songs 🎵 ever
awsome tune 💓 DC
it was from an awesome album of noel coward songs, divine comedys was the best
at 2:49 woman on the right quickly leans forward and the wig flys off and she grabs it and puts it back on damn quick lol
This is really quite brilliant
Killing me!!😅😊😛
I love Neil!!!
He really can do everything...
I went to a marvellous Orbital
Holy shit!
This is a funny parody of rave music and videos, after all

beasticle It's from a Noël Coward inspired album called Twentieth-Century Blues. x
This sounds more like the Prodigy than Divine Comedy. Definitely doesn't typify their music.
Their music is littered with satire. This piece exactly typifies The Divine Comedy.
what is rosa mannen?
wish you wre there
The last quote sounds like Graham Norton
yes its a view of there modern day life in noel cowards time just like eminem will be considered poetry in a hundred years time
He's always here-this was from 1998
@cocombat I think you're missing the point...
What the fuck? What was that about?
@chrisliammm idiot
This does not "work."
this song isn't supposed to be serious so nice joke m8
