+Sidrat13 Yes, it's VERY good. Its the only thing in The Office which I think was unrealistic..David Brent could never have written something like this...This is Rickey Gervais's talent, not Brents.
+metafis Brent's music career was always painted as "the one that got away", I think they purposefully gave him his moment to shine, in stark contrast to his constant blunders. Plus he's in a band on the road in his new film.
I think a lot of it is down to the fact that he thinks he punching above his waist being with Jane. He's written a lot of things about her including After Life, that's based on if he ever lost Jane
*None of them was you* - "what? you?" No he's looking at a photograph - "Of you?" No of his girl .... - "oh sorry, yeah, sounds a bit gay at the moment" It's not gay!
This is seriously one of my favorite songs. This should get radio play, it's the perfect driving song. It has the power to make any road a freelove freeway.
The fact that Noel Gallagher willingly guest starred on this tune just adds to its epicness and proves that is in fact, a great song. 'She's not dead'.
Creative public execution was, at one point, a good idea. So was burning "witches" at stakes and drowning them for no reason. And also murdering those who don't worship the same god as the King. Those were all fantastic ideas to the people who made them at the time they made them. I wouldn't say they're the greatest of ideas now, though.
@@angryyelowchimp You star! The similarity never crossed my mind and I adored TP & the Heartbreakers. Thanks for posting. Just goes to prove that I'm still finding new stuff in old places, even at 63.
Once every couple of years I revisit this song… I learned this song hoping people would get the reference when I first started playing guitar… No one gets the reference but they all love the song.
Thanks for posting. This is a fantastic song in its own right. I sing it in the shower. It's rare that I'd wish a comedian to do an album of "serious" music (I mean a straight ahead music only album, not comedy), but I want to hear more of Ricky's original rock songs! Ricky clearly loves the rock of the 70's and there's a huge audience of fans including/beyond the Office waiting for his music
It's so good. This is what I love. A song that in its own way it's taking the piss but it's doing it in such a stylish and kinda pretty cool way. Much respect mister!
Haha glad I'm not the only one who really enjoyed Ricky's work too. Me and my hubby used to bond over watching The Office and we'd laugh hysterically for hours and hours watching it. Infact we still crack up over it and have little impressions of David and like little in jokes that are all to do with the Office (people must think we're mad lol). Often watching The Office and Extras, etc we'd literally have tears rolling down our faces cause the humour, mannerisms and social awkwardness was just so hilarious and spot on. He was the first person to laugh at these little social things we can all relate too. Probably the most real thing on TV when it comes to the closest thing on TV to real life social interactions I can really relate to it. You might also like his other series called Extras as it's the same type of humour but for some strange reason isn't as well known which is strange cause it's equally good writing and so so funny honestly best thing I've ever seen. I can't tell you enough what an inpact these series had on our life, they have brought so much laughter and joy to us so thanks Ricky, Steve and Karl. Keep doing what you do. Now we can't wait to see Life on the Road next yaaay! I also love to listen to there radio shows and podcasts as well as the Ricky Gervais Show with Steve and Karl, they are so funny and entertaining to listen to, just three friends shooting the breeze, having a laugh and being themselves. You might also like the series they done called 'Lifes Too Short' (again not as well known which is a tradegy) we were also in tears at, it's the same sort of humour as The Office and Extras but instead stars Warrick Davis who's just as good as Ricky Gervais character and equally as funny (the facial expressions had me cracking up!) you should all watch it. These guitar lessons are also amazing I just love that he's incorporated his love of music into his work as we love the guitar and music too. Keep up the great work Ricky! Have been a fan of yours for years way before most people. When I first watched The Office I thought it was a documentary and I think that's the best way too watch it rather than expecting a comedy just look at them as real people. Anywho I'm yabbering on now but just love all you're TV series and podcasts. You've made my life more bearable by making social awkwardness funny rather than just debilitating and cringy. You've saved my life :-D
now that's a trifling matter...... maybe you should put me in custardy................................................... sorry I couldn't remember any quotes from the training day episode when brent is on the guitar
@TheJDorian The Office was originally a BBC show where Gervais played a huge role, one of which was the main character. Gervais is heavily involved in the American version as well. That's his voice you hear in this song, taken from an episode of the BBC version.
Down the road I see cowboy crying I say hey buddy, what can I do? He said I had a good life with about thousand women. I say why the tears. He says none of them was you. Freelove on the freelove freeway the love is free and the freeway is long I got some hot love on the hot love highway going home to my baby's gone she's gone That line is Awsome vers
2 legends singing an epic song from an epic show! what could be better? (and i think the chief should have this as a b side to one of his singles and he should get ricky to support him on tour!)
Imagine getting to collaborate with such a great musician. Noel Gallagher is very lucky.
Lol
LMAO didnt expect that
jealous of shit
Liam Gallagher, is that you?!
Ricky Gervias used do a radio show with Noel thats how they know each other
Anybody else think this song is actually pretty damn good?
The lyrics don't make a whole lot of sense, but yeah, it's a great song.
+Sidrat13 Yes, it's VERY good. Its the only thing in The Office which I think was unrealistic..David Brent could never have written something like this...This is Rickey Gervais's talent, not Brents.
Ricky was in a band called Seona Dancing, look it up
+metafis Brent's music career was always painted as "the one that got away", I think they purposefully gave him his moment to shine, in stark contrast to his constant blunders.
Plus he's in a band on the road in his new film.

Not the same without Gareth and Tim on backing vocals :) She's not dead
It's not gay
@@nomadtarik hahahahahahaaha... his face when he says its not gay hahaha
Orrr ga

I can't have been the only one expecting someone to shout "She's dead!" After he said "my babies gone"?
+Matty Lewis She's not dead
+Ben Ryan he's written it down, ya
Matt West I'll seriously never not hear Gareth's voice in that part.
Matthew Lewis She’s not dead!
Every time
*None of them was you*
- "what? you?"
No he's looking at a photograph
- "Of you?"
No of his girl ....
- "oh sorry, yeah, sounds a bit gay at the moment"
It's not gay!
Just sounds a bit gay at the moment
🤣🤣👍
If you know.. You know 😉👍
It's not gay
This is seriously one of my favorite songs. This should get radio play, it's the perfect driving song. It has the power to make any road a freelove freeway.
C, F, Am, and G are all the chords needed in life.
She's the serpent who guards the gates of helllllll
Haha yeah she's the serpant who guards the gate of heeeeeeeelllllllllll lol like how you added the heeeeeelllllllllll lmao :-D
Best bit
That's my favourite part 😂

She's Deaaaaaaaaaad!....she's not dead
Joe Andrews erm, say what? Dont stay out past curfew will you dear
Adrian Whittaker I'll never not hear that part.

That was gold 😂
He went home to get it.
Mr. T pities the fool who doesn't get this line.
@@MrZenzio whats the joke?
She’s dead “
Tim and Gareth smashed it as back up singers.
This song was a good idea when it was in the show, and it's a good idea with Noel Gallagher. I guess a good idea is a good idea forever.
Philosophy.
FEDKA2 OMG YES!!! hes so wise isnt he
I guess a good comment is a good comment forever.
Communism
Creative public execution was, at one point, a good idea. So was burning "witches" at stakes and drowning them for no reason. And also murdering those who don't worship the same god as the King.
Those were all fantastic ideas to the people who made them at the time they made them.
I wouldn't say they're the greatest of ideas now, though.
that backing singer nigel Gallagher sounds good, he would do well in a band I think
Lee Byrne yeah he'd be decent with that guy at Glastonbury and the bassist from ride.
Don't forget the guitarist from heavy stereo
Epic comment
Oh dear Bethany 🙈🤦🏼♂️
Daniel Brown what ??
Talented bloke, a writer of all kinds of stuff to make us all smile
When Noel Gallagher kicks in at the end chorus, absolutely banging
This is the definition of banger. It's incredible. I don't know how many times I've listened to it over the years😅
Noel Gallagher and Ricky gervais are two of my most loved celebs. This makes me buzz. My baby daughter is rocking along to this also.
This seems like a tune written somewhere in the 60/70's........Genius Gervais ......
Kinda tom petty
Yeah. Has a walk on the wild side vibe to it

That Noel kid is pretty good, we should start a band some day
LG as you fucking were 🤙
Wonder if he’s got a brother who could sing?
God do you ever get tired of being so bland
The riff at 0:41 is just fantastic
"Live fast die old"
noel doing back up vocals really improved this song brilliant
Once every couple of years I revisit this song… I learned this song hoping people would get the reference when I first started playing guitar… No one gets the reference but they all love the song.
"She's Deaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad...."
She's not dead!
😂😂😂
What an awesome tune and an awesome combo .. have to hand it to Ricky and Noel this is awesome
harmony is magic.
Gotta love all those Office references after watching a whole marathon ! :D
"He went home to get it!"
She's dead
She's not dead!
sounds a bit gay at the moment...
ITS NOT GAY
I know hes taking the piss out of 70s ''drive songs'' but this song is DAM FINE!!! Yes?
Is it sad that this song actually pumps me up when I work out?
It's not gay
The video will show it
"It's not gay"
This is brilliant song ,feels super
Someone accidentally wrote a good song
rushfan2112 it’s hilarious but catchy and fun.
He's written loads of good music. Mostly comical but still awesome. Check out Gypsie Girl or something like that
Just a solid jam about a guy on the open road banging everyone he meets.
I mean it's just absolute genius. Have had the dvd on repeat for about 3 years now. Should probably think about going to the toilet.
This song was stuck in my head at work all day today.
Still stuck in your head?
I didn't know I needed this in my life.
"There is no 362 in this hotel.. sometimes the complaints will be false"
"She's dead!" "She's not dead."
awesome voice! so talented Mr Gervais!
"He went all the way home to get that guitar" i was literally in tears with that comment
What a tune love it😀👍 .awesome ricky
Still better than most stuff nowadays
This comment is still true 4 years later.
Magic!!

Love this song right now
I like this song far too much more than I should
Love this song!
I just looked up this song after watching the episode.. judging by all those inside jokes going on here it seems I'm not the only one lol
What a tune! Really catchy.
A good idea is a good idea forever
If you buy the Office ( 2 Set ) DVD Series there is a video of the full version of this song, complete with full band playing.
shes not dead
My favourite song.
Right, that's lunch!
Okaaayy..
Oh my gosh the bonus verses :) This is amazing
It's almost impossible to not say "She'd deaaaddd"

Me. It's brilliant. I heard it on an ad recently, and was genuinly startled when I found out who it is. Just shows - never make assumptions...

As a professional singer, pianist and musician myself - I actually love this chord sequence. It's probably my fav chord sequence really.
4 chord pop sequence?
@merocket same! Cant stop listening to it!
