Not just favourite Chumbawamba song , but my favourite song ever. I first heard it on an obscure radio station in 1992, and lost it for many a year. So glad I came across it again about 4 years ago...
@@awesometraveler Cranberries were cynical, about the defeat of the generations- and hundreds of years-old struggle against the british occupier..... while Chumbawamba I think are looking to a possible brighter future
Smiling angels on your milk-white shoulders Scared of heaven and accusing whispers Angles always get the worst advice But they can hire the sharpest lawyers Someone's always telling you how to behave Someone's always telling you how to behave Boys and girls, come out to play See Cupid fire his poison arrows Mickey Mouse grew up a cow You should hear the things they say about Minnie now Someone's always telling you how to behave Someone's always telling you how to behave Farewell to all the smiling angels I have a date with some little devil Girls will be boys and boys will be girls I found a bedful of heaven in this hell of a world Someone's always telling you how to behave Someone's always telling you how to behave Someone's always telling you how to behave Someone's always telling you how to behave Someone's always telling you how to behave Someone's always telling you how to behave...
I didn't know them and heard this great song 1992 and was stuck. Then I went to see them live in Bremen...and it was totally different from what I had expected. But it was a great concert!!!
This is a different version than the version that appears on Shhh!.. I like both though! thanks for posting! (coincidentally, I don't see the original version posted anywhere on YT.) Both are great! A+
The idea is to make all the songs easy to play and to sing so anyone can, anywhere, including down the squat or at the picket line or in the holding cells awaiting arraignment.
Isn't there a song with the same melody but different lyrics on Shhh? Something like "they're playing voodoo with their kylie dolls, sing it right or don't sing it at all"
Hey diddle diddle, here's a brand new riddle What's shallow and cheap with a hole in the middle Five fingers holding four wise angels Little heads float by on clouds of goodness They're playing voodoo with their Kylie dolls Sing it right or don't sing it all
A lot of people dont know this, ..
but Chumbawamba is one of the greatest bands of all time.
Shhh
Absolutely agree - miss seeing them live, unbeatable.
A beautiful and very underrated song. I never get tired of listening to it.

Methinks Cranberries.

Chumbawamba live was one of the best nights out money could buy.
how do you "buy" a free thinker..give them a cigarette...sorry, us anarchists from Leeds..... ;-)

what
Smiling angels on your milk-white shoulders
Scared of heaven and accusing whispers
Angles always get the worst advice
But they can hire the sharpest lawyers
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Boys and girls, come out to play
See Cupid fire his poison arrows
Mickey Mouse grew up a cow
You should hear the things they say about Minnie now
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Farewell to all the smiling angels
I have a date with some little devil
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
I found a bedful of heaven in this hell of a world
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Someone's always telling you how to behave
Someone's always telling you how to behave...
Love this band...one of the best live acts ever. Very happy memories.....

OMG, going to see Chumbawamba live having heard only this song.....that must have been mental, this song is so unlike their norm.
This is a different version than the version that appears on Shhh!.. I like both though! thanks for posting! (coincidentally, I don't see the original version posted anywhere on YT.) Both are great! A+
Shame that “I Got Knocked Down” track got so big and not this one.
I love thee. 🇨🇦🥓💥🤗
Love you, Cora 💖
This singer (also singer on Timebomb and many other CBW songs) has a phenomenal voice. Is she Louise Watts?
elofan54 yes that’s right
Louise Watts : gorgeous voice !
my favourite Chumbawamba song
pure class
Anyone have any recommendations for similar songs? Thank you in advance
C, G, F, repeat.

A beautiful song from the Ramones school of music.
Yes!
@meirasanya You are correct. It's still called 'Behave', just a different version.
Isn't there a song with the same melody but different lyrics on Shhh? Something like "they're playing voodoo with their kylie dolls, sing it right or don't sing it at all"
Same song, but a different mix/version/whateveryoucallit
it has a much reduced lyric on Shhh, but I think the remixed melody is better :-)
It started as "Silly Love Songs" on Jesus H. Christ, then changed and evolved to this
Great tune...but the longer 5 minute 'Brittle Mix' on the original 4 track 12" EP is superior to this one, it really kicks harder beatwise.
Hey diddle diddle, here's a brand new riddle
What's shallow and cheap with a hole in the middle
Five fingers holding four wise angels
Little heads float by on clouds of goodness
They're playing voodoo with their Kylie dolls
Sing it right or don't sing it all
kurwa!! one heart
oh christ
