Pure class! still good in 2023!
2024
One of those brilliant songs that are original, crafted to perfection and catchy as heck
43 years later!
@@tonymccaul7159 damn, feeling old now you said that.........
1979... I sat in front of the record player and listened to the single over and over again... pure childhood memory!!! I was 9 years old and didn't know what a video or a stream was at the time. I didn't even know those words... I like to remember that time...😍
I bloody love this..
Don't make em' like this anymore 😔
Great song great memories. We kids were lucky
Love this song - remember it well as a kid in 1979. I'd never seen this video before, only the promo clip. The smile on Cesar's face looks genuine, like he's really enjoying this. I love the way the props dance and get into the rhythm towards the end.
The HR e videos on CZcams the official one
Yes, I've never seen this before, great stuff.
Love the way the Marquis de Sade is foot tapping to the tune while maintaining a serious look lol.
Only just realized that B.A Robertson is the spitting image of Dean Saunders [ who used to play for Liverpool}, lolol.
Perfectly crafted and wonderfully silly pop song
I loved the first Video in ( his local Pub, the Local Big haired Amateur Stunners did just great🇬🇧😚
Amazing how a Glaswegian can sing in perfect London accent.
i always thought edinburgh,,,,,,any way plastic cockney!
Right after this came out in '79 someone opened up a clothes shop up near my school and it was called "Bang Bang" twas very popular!
If only they taught history in school like this, a lot more interesting!! There is at least a terms worth of work here.
When this in charts i joined parras
Love how some of the supporting cast are more in to this than others. Sherlock Homes is having a great time but the woman playing Cleopatra is giving it the full "I didn't spend six years at drama school just to end up in something like this..." vibe 😃
Caesar looks somewhere between Max Clifford and John McDonnell of Labour, dear help him
All ten look as though they were dragged off the street and told to pick a costume. Coupled with B A's hand over the mouth to mimic laughter this really is cringeworthy to watch
I know where you're coming from but I love a bit of cheese, especially when it's nostalgia. Clearly not to be taken seriously but I do genuinely love the tune! @@mjstefansson7466
They are probably reserved European people as this was a European Top of the pops. Probably Wondering who the weird guy was acting a clown with weird accent.
Fantastic. I challenge anyone to write a more perfect pop tune than this.
More effort was put into this performance than the official promo video!
Great song. Clever lyrics. I like seeing the characters he sung about - although I still prefer the video with the pretty girls banging or bang bang-ing bin lids
Who'd have thought Jeremy Paxman was a popstar before doing Newsnight and University Challenge??!! He even got Michael Howard to dress up as Sherlock Holmes !!!!
Fabulous in every respect
😇❤🙏🤣💯class
Childhood memories.great song....
ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS EVER TO RESET THE LIFE FUN NARATIVE
Superb 👌👍
Excellent 👍🏿👍🏿
The mighty fell then they dow now, and will always fall.... Bang Bang !
This timeless classic entered the UK charts near the end of the 1970s. Being old enough to remember the 1960s even that decade didn't have the complete tapestry of music as the 70s, from start to finish. Knew just how popular by work colleagues in the millennium having posters near their desks of Elvis Presley, Abba, and David Bowie. All in the charts before they were born.
BA Total legend bang bang who's very kool in his kaftan!
Love and peace, man
Wow I used to reallyfancyhim
Brilllant the cast dancing in background funny wigs expressions great video song to the era super lyrics ba Robertson !!!!
Love dís tune, well done b, a, Robinson 😄
A wonderful talented singer / song writer & gorgeous !! had a crush on him listened to his music a lot still do, thankyou xx
I love 2 be or not 2 be 🎵🎵🎵
Always to be a classic can put of todays to shame and you can hear all the words BANG BANG
SUPERB video
❤. British ❤
1:21 Ceasar -lookalike with a quizzical "am i really gonna get paid just for dressingnin this costume' look .....😂✅
Wheres the wee guy playing the drum?? He is brilliant😁😁
I think he was only about 22 years old here. I thought he was about 40. A great record all the same.
22 but looked 40. He co-wrote mike and mechanics massive hit in uk usa australia and everywhere "living years" and made a lot of money.
I just said the same on another clip. I couldn't believe how old - or young - he was!
And wired for sound
Never forgave him for writing Wired for sound 😁
He was unique
Was eine Zeit
Oh oh
Also, mir taugt der Song." Bang,Bang"🕺
This is fun. Worth waiting 40 years to discover it. A Dutch approach,sponsored by 'UNESCO' - not really,just my approving irony.
This song is still so good in 2023 . Ps David Baddiel sulking at 0:39 because hes not allowed to make a witty remark lol
What an earworm. Great song but so cheesy. Love it
I love a bit of cheese... that's why I'm also into Abba lol
@@stevebrazilio yh me too
B.a where you gone ?
❤
I love puppets🎉🎉
Funny guy.nice song...
hey BA what's with the long face?
iIagree more thought put into these dutch alternative live studio performances on the dutch totp
If youre Houdini in your spare
time........
Its so British
Mark Anthony is having a great time….
I've always wondered how John Fruin felt about being mentioned in this song. Maybe it was a case of all publicity being good publicity?
Was that a Top of the Pops set I'm thinking that's what it said
They really put up a few "props" for this one......isn't it!!!!!!!
בישראל 2.9.1979
Mad long- legged popster but catchy.
Rumoured by some to be Phil Lynott's all - White half - brother.
Cheesey but catchy
It’s a shame Christopher Lee didn’t turn up on time
Love thin lanky men with dark hair💞😍
Where's Johnny Fruin in that line-up?😂
Why the long face, BA??
Where is my brood ?
Why does he sound like an EastEnder if he is Scottish?
He looks older than 23.

The budget didn't stretch to having someone dressed as a vampire. Shame....
Looking for a girl I use to know back in 1979 her name was Debbie and she lived in Blaby Leicestershire her last name I never new.... her Dad was Colin he was a lorry driver worked for Coates of Leicester and she also had a Brother.... My name his ( Crap 💩) Pete from Kettering I use to ride my motorbike over to see her on Sunday afternoon but I let her down badly and I want to say sorry.....believe me I am truly sorry.....so if anyone knows her please let her know Thanks....👍🇬🇧🤓
& it couldn't happen 2 a nicer pair of women IE Queen Joanne Catherall ❤️ & Queen Susan Sulley ❤️. Whom I've been lucky enough 2 have met. 4a chat. 8 times in total now in Queen Joanne Catherall's case. Little does Queen Joanne Catherall ❤️ know it. But she is largely responsible 4 the best night ever of my life. Which happened in Brighton & ended up with me. Getting a free unexpected journey home from Brighton Railway 2 Portsmouth on the night in question. After I'd missed the last Southern Railway company train. & It ended up with me getting a free unexpected journey home from Brighton Railway 2 Portsmouth on the night in question. After I'd missed the last Southern train departing from Brighton 2 Portsmouth on the night in question & had 4got 2 have my meds with me.
First i think that the CRAZY "MUTTI M E R K E L" ist dancing in the middle top !!!! But she isn't , she's other wise go BERSET, no go berserk !!!
BA we should file under ‘creep’
Always thought BA was a one trip wonder. He played to the camera. Nice catchy tune but the guy was no singer. Just the usual gimmick record of the time with some innuendo.
Had a few hits, Romeo & Juliette, Kool In The Kaftan, Flight 19, Saint Saens, Maggie, wrote The Living Years for Mike & The Mechanics. Also Wired For Sound and Carrie for Cliff Richard.

John cena’s grandad bottom left
He was a wanker....but a talented wanker.
This is even worse than I remember as a kid
This guy is a fud
No - you are for not appreciating quality
He'll never beat you.
You mean he’s a PH.D.?
