#uk #film #reaction
The greatest British comedy gangster film ever made. Soundtrack everything.
toss up with Snatch
@@LordEriolTolkien I wouldn't argue with that. Both absolutely amazing.
It's so bumpin!
I'd argue with my original post, and put trainspotting in there, a darker film, but funny with it.
Snatch is better.
No, Vinnie Jones is Big Chris. He plays Bullet Tooth Tony in Snatch. Did you spot Sting playing JD, Eddie’s Dad.
No I think Chrissie was asking about the voice of the narrator....she's right, that is the bad guy in Snatch.... Brick Top.
Barry the Baptist was played Lenny "The Guvnor" McLean.
He was undefeated in something like 70 bare-knuckle boxing matches.
Damn. Did he have a penchant for washing away sins ? haha 😄
Dude is legit.. Fighter, doorman all round hard man in the 70s
He was also a genuine Cockney gangster.
My dad worked the door with him and described him as his best friend in a lot of ways my dad said he was a true gentleman with ladies about if him and my dad were in a pub together and my mum joined them he’d make my dad give up his chair for my mum 😂
@@jacketrussellno he wasn't. But he was friends with some of them.
I thought that Guy Ritchie's "RocknRolla" was pretty entertaining. It has Gerard Butler, Idris Elba, and Tom Hardy in it (among others)
RocknRolla was good. Snatch is still Ritchie's masterpiece.
heh, I now have an avatar in some games called onetwo. Damned cool nickname.
I really liked his latest The Gentlemen, Hugh Grant is wonderful in it.
Ritchies got a recent film with Statham.
Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre (2023)
The game wasn't poker, it was brag, which is different. Also, his 'talent' for cards was reading people and he knew that Harry had a poor hand. Unfortunately, Harry's 'poor' hand just happened to be a better poor hand than his.
Also known as 3 card poker or blind poker. Straight beats a flush in Brag
Yeah I remember my Granny taught me 5 card Brag as a kid. Can't remember much nowadays, prefer Texas hold em
The locket music (sounds like music box music) is a nod from the final showdown in 'For a Few Dollars More' 1965 starring Clint Eastwood.
The gentlemen is a really good one
Ooh thanks! I haven't heard of that one

@@chrissiereacts Futurization And The Sorrow Of Human Civilization + A Final Hope!
The vast majority of people in The World are not Warriors.The vast majority of people in The World are not Inventors.The vast majority of people in The World are not Philosophers.Today most of the people in The World cannot survive on their own and this is going to get even worse as Civilization continues to advance and make people's rudimentary skills continuously obsolete!
As Civilization becomes ever so Bigger and Bigger and Bigger the people who built it especially the ordinary citizens become ever so smaller and smaller and smaller.Over time the advancing Behemoth that is Civilization overshadows the people living in Civilization and magnifies their insignificance.The vast majority of people are either:born in a comfortable box or are born in the dirt.Only a few people are needed to be in charge.The vast majority of people Ultimately fade away and die in obscurity;remembered only by a few relatives.If they have relatives.As Future Cities continue to advance,grow and expand indefinitely people will eventually become Completely Worthless!
From what I have seen and learned and If my calculations are correct I predict that "Things" will become so completely advanced not extremely advanced,but completely advanced and people will become so luxurious and useless that they will no longer have to leave their home cities and maybe even their own homes.Everything will be taken care of.Everyone will be taken care of.Everything will be automatic.Everyone will be connected.The participation of people in important matters will become less and less and less necessary.People will have no Personal Power or influence in Life and no need to do almost-Anything and so almost-Everyone will become Absolutely Worthless,Useless,Meaningless and Pointless.Civilization will take care of Everyone and Everything making people redundant.As Science continues to advance exponentially the only logical end point is that one day almost-Absolutely Everyone in The World will become a 100% unbeliever,atheist,sceptic,heathen,blasphemer,pagan and immoral sinner and thus:almost-Absolutely Everyone in The World will turn against The Christian God!
In this Future people have no Personal Destiny and no feeling of a Personal Destiny!
As Human society and World civilization continue to expand and advance,some people will
inevitably out of revenge and as a side effect willingly withdraw and isolate themselves from Human society/civilization.This is "The Revengo-Advanco" phase/state - A phase/state where a society or civilization has become so vastly advanced,strange and intricate that some of it's members simply cannot take it Anymore and out of revenge isolate themselves from the outside World.This has happened and is already happening in various parts of The World.As Human society and civilization continue complexifying,more people will continue to self-isolate.These self-isolating people are not crazy or evil or broken inside;they are counter-responding to a continuously advancing World that feels more and more eldritch to them and which makes them outmoded.In Revengo-Advanco the people who self-isolate themselves isolate not,because they are unwell,but out of revenge against the very advancement of Human society/civilization itself!
The World,The Coming Future and The Forces Of Darkness will try very very hard to seduce as many people as Possible.Do not be one of those many people.Just wait and You shall be rewarded a little later by Christ for rejecting this World!
Those who reject this World and remain loyal to Jesus Christ shall later be rewarded 100 times as much!
The 21st Century - Our current/present Century is The Most-Pivotal Century of All-Centuries.From Everything I have gathered and analysed:The 21st Century is the very beginning of the very end. No other Century Past or Future has the approaching enormous consequences that I forefeel.I will explain why We are nearing the very end itself.Listen and analyse very-carefully:Genetic Engineering and Supercomputerization are changing the demographics and have "The Potential" to change the genetic makeup of The Human population!!!Genetic Engineering and Supercomputerization are the beginning of the end.Genetic Engineering and Supercomputerization were Impossible in All-previous Centuries and in The Future it will already be too late.Only in The 21st Century are Genetic Engineering and Supercomputerization Possible.The 21st Century is "The Exact" Century for All of this to happen.This is "The Correct" Time Period for All of this to take place - The 21st Century.The Mark Of The Beast shall most probably be introduced somewhere at this point.Genetic Engineering and Supercomputerization are the end,because "They" will allow The Humans to transform/transmogrify themselves beyond God's original design.Do Not transform/transmogrify Yourself or You will suffer Eternal Destruction!!!Genetic Engineering and Supercomputerization are "The Primary Indicators".This will finally fulfill The Last Remaining Ancient Prophecies.The Lord Of Lords And The King Of Kings Jesus Christ shall intervene to Save "Those" who have not transformed/transmogrified themselves into Anti-Christian Abominations and to Destroy "Those" who have transformed/transmogrified themselves into Anti-Christian Abominations!
No matter what happens we must reject this World and remain faithful to Jesus Christ and wait for Jesus Christ to return.Just hang on a little bit longer.Good luck!
Yes!! The Gentlemen is totally worth a watch
Yes the Gentlemen is a really good movies and alot easier to understand for non british speakers.
This movie is so damned fantastic. Guy Ritchie is a master with timing and storytelling. Thoroughly enjoyed this!
The guy with the car door is Vinnie Jones, the character is Chris and his character in Snatch is Bullet Tooth Tony
" I said knock him out. Not touch him up. " 😅🤣
Not one character in this movie has any redeeming qualities. 😂🤣
yep the scary man was, in fact, a real gangster. The Guvnar. Hardest man in the UK so they say. His book is something else. The story about the New York mafia flying him over to fight their hardest man is a story in itself. Watching him in this movie knowing who he is changes the film for me.
His Name is Lenny Mclean, was a bare knuckle fighter (search lenny mclean fights)
2 excellent Guy Ritchie movies. The Gentlemen and also The Man from Uncle. The Gentlemen has Matthew McConaughey, Colin Farrell and Hugh Grant. Man from Uncle also has Hugh Grant.
RocknRolla (2008) is a great Guy Ritchie movie.
Ooh, good call. I'll add it to my list!
The bartender telling the story is Danny John-Jules a Dancer/comedian in a British comedy you would like called Red Dwarf if you ever add series reactions its a good one to start with.
And no in England we are still using money with the queen on , tho i doubt it'll be to long until we change.
I wonder given the news this past week...
Cat!
The bouncer at the card game is former world boxing champion Steve Collins.. and former England footballer Sol Campbell is the bouncer at the boxing match in Snatch. ❤
@@chrissiereacts I don't know what news you mean.. but yeah, Red Dwarf is really great. Danny plays the role of a creature descended from a cat. Perfectly. And it's got just the best episode on gender I have ever seen! The (all male) crew of Red Dwarf slip into a parallel universe where gender roles are reversed... S02E06.
Little fact: the main badguy in Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels Harry Hatchet is a side character in Jaws 3, also Barry the Baptist was a real bare knuckle boxer - Lenny McClean
And Harry the hatchet was a prison officer in the film scum
Of course... Wow, thanks for pointing that out mate :)
The soundtrack is also, "Tip-Top!"
Just not sure about the color 😁👍
Great reaction! Some answers and info for ya!
Brit here. Our money changes regularly. New designs all the time. Different people on notes and so forth. No biggie. Men, women, kings, queens. The current Monarch is on everything but when I was a nipper (1980s), it wasn't unusual to get coins with past monarchs.
I _love_ the filters in this movie. So grim... But the location of the lads' flat was shot just near Borough Market. They had to SEARCH for those run-down buildings and that's why you only get tight shots. The rest of the street was gentrified lol! I lived there at the time and me and my mates squealed like stuck pigs when we saw that particular corner :D
Harry's "enforcer" (who ducks the guy into the barrel of water) was a REAL LIFE enforcer. He plays himself. "If you don't want to be counting the fingers yoo aven't got..." I'm torn between "awful acting" and the fact that he actually did this: yet an actor could have done it way better. But Guy Richie loves his South East London Legends.
Kudos on the editing btw! You hit the highlights. If you've seen the movie, you'll follow the reactions!
And, actually, watching these highlights, I realise that this movie is a masterclass in "how incomplete communication between your immediate peers is a bad thing" in writing comedy (which I do as a hobby).
Fun fact: "Chris" (the guy who has a son and whose name you couldn't remember) is played by former professional soccer player Vinnie Jones. He plays the same character in the movie as he did on the pitch, for Wimbledon FC, in South East London. Guy Richie LOVES his South East London Legends...
This is literally Vinnie: the other player was the most talented of his generation and Vinnie had been given the job of making sure he couldn't score. This was his tactic of choice.
i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article10025733.ece/ALTERNATES/n310p/0_PROD-Football-Wimbledon-v-Newcastle-United-Division-1.jpg
Yet in this movie, Vinnie didn't even get a yellow card. Although, to be fair, in the English Football League, he never brought a car door onto the pitch into which he could slam the faces of his immediate opponents either. He would have, though, if he could.
Oh, also "Snatch" is British slang for...
Well, I am not putting THAT into the comments. I will allow you to filthify your google search history.
Your location story reminds me of when I lived in Edinburgh and my friend and I were so excited when we came upon the spot in the opening scene where Ewan gets hit by the car 😄
What are you writing about atm?
Barry the baptist was a street fighter ,and involved in the protection rackets,he was called the Baptist due to the strong arm method of holding the debt ower under the water to make him more compliant.he was well respected in that world, g.r.h.s
He wasn't called the baptist. He was called the guvnor due to his almost undefeated record
You're talking like Lenny's character in this Film was real?!
post ww2 till today gangland from Glasgow through all the major towns down to London still have a gangsters some would make Lenny look soft..
Lock stock and snatch are the best films ever.🇬🇧
This is all time movie always. Ive been watching it in my own language and absolutely loved it. Then I've moved to London and watch it again and again as my English has been improving. One day I even met Fat at Lombard Road Battersea he was on his bicycle.
LOL
Who would have thought 25 years ago that Statham would now be a big Hollywood star 🎥
It should've been Dexter Fletcher, he can act
with re-guards to guns in this environment back in the day ,i have personally seen a try-pod mounted maxim machine gun in the back of a soft top van in London being used to make a point.......
No you haven't mate. Jebus. Both your comments are full of shit
Lock Stock, a great good old British movie for those bad boys,
This film was made before Snatch and was the reason Snatch was made because of it's success. I personally think this the better film of the two films. If you're not from London it you can miss a lot of the little slang terms but still a brilliant film. The sound track is excellent too.
Lock Stock, Snatch, The Gentlemen and Rock n Rolla are all great movies.
Just don't watch Revolver . It's without doubt the worst film I've ever seen.
The guy who owned the bar is Sting, from The Police (the band, not the constabulary).
I almost said something! But then I doubted myself haha
@@chrissiereacts "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt", as a wise man once said. 😏
👍I'd always felt the end was a nod to The Italian Job too.
Ever seen _Layer Cake?_ It's another top-tier British gangster film, directed by Matthew Vaughn (the producer on _Lock, Stock..._ & _Snatch_ ).
I haven't seen that one. Thanks for the suggestion! :)
Yeah it’s good - same producer as Lock, Stock - Matthew Vaughn
Daniel Craig is the main character and it was one of the performances which helped him get the James Bond role.
Yes. Great film. Welcome to the Layer Cake.
The Sherlock Holmes movies with Robert Downey Jr are Guy Ritchie as well. They are magnificent.
The Gentlemen is another Guy Ritchie film well worth a watch.
So I just stumbled across this. I hate reaction videos and usually don't have the patience to sit through even the intro let alone much else but I love Guy Ritchie films and I was surprised to find myself watching this till the end.
Forgot how great a film it is but love your style of video. Great editing, loved the short and simple intro and watching your reaction. Guess I'm gonna have to see what else you've got now
That's a high compliment, thank you! I'm still quite new so not a ton of content yet and still on a learning curve, so hopefully it only gets better :)
Aiming to have another Guy Ritchie up next week!
Barry the Baptist was an actual "reformed" stand over man in real life 😅
Im from Australia and i was just casually cleaning all the receipts and random stuff that accumulated in my wallet over the past year.
Pulled out a one dollar coin that was extra shiny so i flipped it to see what year it was minted and was honestly shocked to see a king on it.
I audibly said wtf! My housemate heard me and was like what?
I proceeded to show him the coin and he called out to the other bro to come have a ghanda.
Since we are all 90s kids it was a shock to not see the queen on the back of our coins.
If that's not a sign of changing times than i don't know what is.
"I really love snatch" me too luv.
😂
🤣🤣🤣
The greatest heist/comedy movies are imo ''The Ladykillers'' (1955), ''Topkapi'' (1964) & ''The Return of the Pink Panther'' (1975).
Ocean's Eleven is up there for me.
Classic British film great sound track 👍🇬🇧
Guns for show, knives for a pro.
Great reaction to a British Classic. The fact that it's by Guy Ritchie just enhances the reaction. It WAS emotional. Thanks for the giggles. LOL
If I ever turn gangster, I want to be a London gangster.
Such a great movie! I have to watch it again now. Great review too, keep up the good work 🤙
The most amazing thing about this film is Barry The Baptist was in his 40s when it was filmed!!!
Lol 😅🤯
Yes, he (Vinny Jones) is pretty much the same guy in both movies - ex-pro footballer, known for his "physicality"... Great reactions, see you soon!
And Bullet Tooth Tony's intro in Snatch was him repeatedly bashing someone in a car door. The car phone rings and Tony cheerfully answers it, "Bonjour".
Admittedly he was a hard case footballer but people sometimes forget he both won the league and FA Cup as a player, the American/Canadian equivalent would be played in a winning Super Bowl team / played in a winning Stanley Cup team
Guy Ritchie did the 2 Sherlock Holmes films with Robert Downey Jr. and the King Arthur film with Charlie Hunnam which I thought was pretty good.
Both this movie and snatch have always been in my top 10 movie picks.
Barry the Baptist (John McLean) is a British legend. "If you don't want to be counting the fingers, you haven't got! I suggest you get those guns, QUICK!"
Lenny...John Maclean was Bruce Willis' character in Die Hard 😂
Love ur reactions, the slamming the head in the door first happened in this movie Lock stock, it an iconic scene as it’s Vinnie Jones first ever acting role, he was a hard man pro footballer before. The introduction of his character in snatch is just an Easter egg, it’s not the same universe or character
Guy Richie is a good director. But I think largely the success of Lock Stock and Snatch were to do with the producer of the films, Matthew Vaughan.
After these two films, they started separate careers. Guy Richie did a few on his own that tanked at the box office(Revolver, Swept Away, Rock and Roller), then started to do off the shelf projects, scripts written by other writers, and he just directed them( Sherlock Holmes, King Arthur)
Where Vaughan took new original ideas and scripts he was involved in(Kick Ass, Stardust). His first standalone film was Layer Cake. It's a film I really recommend. It stars Daniel Craig, who wasn't largely known at the time.
I think that film had a big impact on Daniel Craig getting the James Bond role. When the reboot for Bond was in the works, the rumour was the role was going to either Clive Owen or Daniel Craig, a lot of people were saying Clive Owen, but I think they hadn't seen Daniel Craig in Layer Cake. I would tell people to watch Layer Cake, Daniel Craig is going to be the next James Bond base on his Layer Cake performance.
A few people have mentioned Layer Cake so I'll definitely check it out!
You have good ears! It's Brick Top's voice yeah! Damn im so lucky to find your channel!
I think the car that Vinnie Jones was smashing the door of was a different car in each move - a Jag in snatch and a Rover in lock stock.
Madonna movie aside, Guy Ritchie is a fantastic filmmaker who weaves a lot of comedy into the darker elements of his movies. Really enjoy his work.
Other Guy Ritchie movies to see -
More crime comedies - RocknRolla (with Gerard Butler), The Gentleman (with Matthew McConaughey), and Revolver (very experimental, with Statham)
Spy comedies - The Man From UNCLE (with Henry Cavill), Operation Fortune (more Statham, Aubrey Plaza, Josh Hartnett), and the upcoming Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare (also with Cavill)
You may also enjoy the work of his friend and contemporary, Matt Vaughn - The Kingsmen movies, Layer Cake (with Daniel Craig, this one is very Guy Ritchie style), and more.
Thanks for the recs!!
Revolver was absolute trash...
My old dad very old school very tough had rules on getting into a card school ,DONT EVER
9:01...Hi Chrissie! They're playing 3 Card Brag (which is kinda the British equivalent of Poker). Don't forget Brag (& Poker) are vying games so you can win even if you hand isn't the best as long as you can bluff you opponent into believing it is. Eddie loses not because he made a bad bet but because Hatchet Harry was cheating and knew for certain Eddie was bluffing.
Oh! I've never heard of that game... thanks!! Play the player not the game sorta thing 😁
@@chrissiereacts Basically. 😊
@@chrissiereacts Plus, I don't think Eddie had a choice since Harry was pretty much threatening him (maybe to be beaten or killed) if he didn't go along. it was definitely rigged
Yeah that's a good point. Intimidation really was the strongest suit at that table lol@@MilkSteak55
Oh, in answer to your question, I heard on the radio they're minting new coins but I haven't seen em in person yet.
Quite rare I use/have cash and coins tbh but will keep my eyes peeled.
Also in the news recently is they are legalising cannabis and it will be legal to possess and smoke it in public (for the very first time) as long as you're over 18. Think they said the law is coming in next year.
The Baptist was a real life underground bare first boxer named Lenny McLean.
He was also a doorman and enforcer for the biggest gangsters in London.
Legend & gentleman.
The actor who played Gary was in Chernobyl. he was the one who used to work in a shoe factory.
“Love,Honor and obey”,is my favorite 90’s British gangster movie and is a right laugh as well..Ray Winstone stars in it..But in 2000 Ray starred in “Sexy Beast”,with Sir Ben Kingsley..Sir Ben,does such a great acting job playing a nasty gangster they even feature it and him in “The Sopranos”….Ta-Ta..🇬🇧🇺🇸👍
Harry was one of the divers in jaws 3 that gets eaten at sea world …bit of trivia for ya 😂
The reason Eddy bet on the 6s is because he judged Harry's reaction to his cards and knew he had very little also. In normal circumstances he could have bullied him to fold. The only reason Harry didnt fold on two 7s is because his guy told him exactly what Eddy had.
The game they're playing is called 3 card brag, highest hand is 3 3's, followed by 3 aces then descending through the pack, then a royal flush (A run all of the same suit), flush (A run of mismatched suit), a flush (any 3 cards of the same suit), a pair (same rules as for 3 of a kind) and lastly a high card.
I've reacted to it! It's on my channel :)
You probably don’t know that the guy with the kid is Vinnie Jones. Known for his hard man persona, he was actually a professional footballer. A notorious point in his football career was when he grabbed Paul Gascoigne’s balls during a game, crushing them in his hand. There is a famous picture you can google.😅
The guy that played Barry was better known as ‘The Gov’nor.
Lenny McLean was a real life bare knuckle fighter. And a fcking good one 😎👍
Just subscribed...love your laid back reaction...👍🥂😉
Thank you so much 😁
20:24 ~ Always cracks me up.
He’s an easy-going fellah, the aforementioned uncle Bob. He could just as easily come from your mother’s side of the family.
To assume otherwise would be the sister of all f-ups.
@@chrissiereacts I have a sibling who claims to be the sister of all f-ups. She must be talking about her other brother.
In the top 10 best movies ever made.
It was an air rifle. They fire tiny metal pellets. The guy with car door is Vinnie Jones ex pro footballer. The characters are totally different.
He made that bet so Ritchie could play "i wanna be your dog"....stylised bollocks...great film either way
Few film recommendations.
Dublin Old School (2018)
Human Traffic (1999)
Trainspotting (1996), Transporting 2 (2017)
enjoyed this with a good smoke and chilled. good vibe
The big bloke is Lenny McLean.
He was a proper naughty geeza back in the day.
.....And Barry Dalton shot him in the backside!
Yeah, and gotta recommend a recent Guy Ritchie classic - The Gentlemen
And yes it’s vine jones ex footballer turned movie star the man smashing the car door he’s actually in the latest series called the gentleman bye guy Richie it’s brilliant
I recommend going down the rabbit hole that is Lenny McLean's life. If you think he looked scary, you will find the truth even scarier.
Just had a look at his wiki and... You weren't kidding!
@@chrissiereacts , yes, and I don't think they mention the reason he decided to quit drinking either. That story is bonkers.
He is a scary man he is Lenny " the Governor" McLean bare knuckle boxing champion and was one of the hardest men in Britain. Sadly he died after this film was made and this movie is dedicated to him.
More great stuff, Chrissie! Thank you, darlin' lady! 🤗
Thank you Michael! 🤗
A classic heist movie is The Ladykillers (the 1955 version- I haven't seen the remake)
Don't bother, the Americans tried to re-make it..Another dismal failure..
I saw the remake before I saw the original and the original is so much better
If you're ever in London, take a trip to Borough Market. It's a distinctive open market underneath a railway viaduct right next to the Thames. But it's also where the street is that you can see at 2:40. Follow the one-way system round the back of the market and it heads down that road. You can see that exact shot for yourself.
Love this film, great reaction 👍👏🏻😍🇬🇧
Fun fact, the "actor" playing Barry the Baptist, is in fact a former British Gangster, pretty much like the character he plays.
Geniuine question , why the tape below the knees? I could understand bracing the knees but why below ?
The game is 3 card brag..The highest hand is 3 threes.. A pair or a flush are equally good hands..
There was real gangsters and gangsters family in that film. Was a good watch. Thae fella you said was a spiderman villam was a real gangster
Layer Cake is a good movie. I thought it was Guy Ritchie but it might not be officially him but it had his style.
The card game is "three card brag" a poker type game popular in the UK & Ireland.
Ritchies best one. Easily
This was just a normal vinnie Jones he ain't acting 😂
I think you should have a look at Human Traffic next, that's another great film from the era. A bit more of an upbeat, peace and love kinda aspect of the late 90s. A celebration of youth culture and quite a quotable film too :)
Barry the Baptished was played by real life Gangster and hard case Lenny McLean
That scary man, was one of the hardest men in Britain.
In my top three movies of all time…
Credit to you for knowing about it… I find it strange how this is not well known in the states… maybe I’m wrong about that.
I'm in Canada so I'm not sure either haha
Epic film. So good!
Good reaction, subscribed. Good luck with the channel.
I appreciate it! Thank you!
The Gentlemen is a really good third.
Ritchie is like Scorsese. He's at his best when he's doing gangster.
LOVED The Gentlemen :)
Really enjoyed Snatch😂😂😂
Layer cake is a similar film to this 👍
With the character Chris who smashes the guys head with the door bo it's a different character as his character in snatch is bullet tooth Tony, but the scene was copied in snatch as Guy Richie wanted to pay homage to his own film as he had so much fun filming the scene in this film
Hot Fuzz and Human Traffic are good to react too.
Very good reaction 🤩
Subbed 👍
Thank you so much 😁
I love snatch, too.
Ive only started watching your reaction...
But.. aussie here.
Still havent seen any kings on coins or notes
If I recall correctly, The Baptist was scary because he was brought in for authenticity. I believe he was former semi organized crime.
I love swept away but I understand what the critics where on about…that fantasy song part in the middle though😘🤌 💃 🍬 🏠
Like a musical break?? Okay I'm intrigued now haha
