Music video by Pulp performing Mis-Shapes. (C) 1995 Island Records Ltd. - Hudba
Jarvis's dancing and finger pointing in this video is utterly brilliant.
One might say it's...."on point!"
was there actually. And 25 years later I finally write about it all stevepafford.com/differentclass25/
Love it- Ultimately we use our minds 👏🏽👍🏽😁💃🏻
Yes it is
The fuck. I'm barely able to put this video together lol I'm Canadian
Jarvis Cocker:
100% talent
100% looks
10000% magic hands
By far the best band of the Britpop scene for me. The intelligent and artful antidote to the laddishness of the era. ❤️✌🏼
100%
Suede was with them there too
All the britpop bands were great
All the bands were great
RIP Steve Mackey (November 10, 1966 - March 2, 2023), aged 56
You will be remembered as a legend.
Jarvis is definitely the most unconventionally beautiful man to ever.
Totally agree with you! And coming from a heterosexual male hot on the heels of Jarvis are Brett Anderson (she's in fashion) and Morrissey (girlfriend in a coma). All impossibly beautiful human beings.
💯
I'm a straight man and I appreciate him.
He’s soooooo handsome ❤️❤️
Jarvis made the idea we could all be something. Then we woke up!
In case anyone was wondering, the song played at the start is 'Sorted out for E's and Whizz', another great song by Pulp
Double a side with this song. Hence the controversial cover art of the single
@@jerseymonolith I’m not a huge fan of Pulp but I’ve always liked both the songs on that single. The first line of mis-shapes is such a great start to a song and so memorable.
I liked that bizarre album Scott Walker produced
Looking back, Pulp were the best band of this era. Never realised it at the time.
Caught in the oasis wave myself mate , only just realised pulp/jarvis puts them well in the shade 😎
@Kieran Regan Suede were a great band but I love Pulp's working class view of life.
I actually did but, as an italian, I was the only Pulp fan in my company...
It was all about Oasis v Blur at the time, Pulp went slightly under the radar as a result but their songs were far, far better.
Mainics Blur Oasis and many more. There was no best. We were gifted.
“Blur or Oasis”
PULP
The Britpop equivalent to:
Q- The Beatles or The Stones?
A- The Kinks
SQUEEZE, IRON MAIDEN, MANICS, THE POLICE, EURYTHMICS.
suede
Pulp > Blur > Oasis
Oasis > Pulp > Blur
this song is so underrated
As a Belgian speaking, Jarvis Cocker is the only person who made lyrics more important than the music. What a genius! Still I always felt guilty reading the lyrics whilst listening to the music, because I was not supposed to accordingly to Jarvis Cocker ;-)
Listen to the Kinks. Ray Davies was a Genius.
Everyone reads the lyrics if they're there!😁
My three musketeers of the era, PULP, BLUR, SUEDE
No one points a finger like Jarvis Cocker.
Except Scott Walker..
Ashley Rae Sebastian Who
Ashley Rae Sebastian hes rlly inspired by scott walker and they have even worked together. love it.
Sir Jarvis is the ultimate master of the hand jive action sequence.
At the end of common people at the 1995 Glastonbury... What a point...
This track is just fucking genius. It really does ring true of the society of the day, (the 90's) beyond and before. I love this track and Jarvis really is a genius to recognise this in such a clever and public way
Still rings true in 2022!!!
Well, yes, but it does nick the verse from “The Greatest Love of All” for its chorus, which is always rather distracting…
@@paulgerard410Does it??
How many ways do I adore Jarvis? Each and every way, even now he's still so charismatic.
This song have never mean so clear for me today than ever. I've been listening to it from a long time. I'm 42 now, and I feel like this have been written exactly for me and for now.
I’m curious, what did you mean by that?
Revenge of the nerds. Brilliant opener to a great album, 'Different Class'.
Lyrics
Misshapes, mistakes, misfits
Raised on a diet of broken biscuits, oh
We don't look the same as you
And we don't do the things you do
But we live around here too, oh really
Misshapes, mistakes, misfits
We'd like to go to town but we can't risk it, oh
'Cause they just want to keep us out
You could end up with a smack in the mouth
Just for standing out, now, really
Brothers, sisters, can't you see?
The future's owned by you and me
There won't be fighting in the street
They think they've got us beat, but revenge is going to be so sweet, oh-oh-oh
We're making a move, we're making it now
We're coming out of the side-lines
Just put your hands up, it's a raid yeah
We want your homes, we want your lives
We want the things you won't allow us
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of, that's our minds
Check your lucky numbers
That much money could drag you under, oh
What's the point in being rich
If you can't think what to do with it?
'Cause you're so bleeding thick
Oh, we weren't supposed to be
We learnt too much at school now we can't help but see
That the future that you've got mapped out is nothing much to shout about, oh-oh-oh
We're making a move, we're making it now
We're coming out of the side-lines
Just put your hands up, it's a raid yeah
We want your homes, we want your lives
We want the things you won't allow us
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of, that's our minds
And brothers, sisters, can't you see?
The future's owned by you and me
There won't be fighting in the street
They think they've got us beat, but revenge is going to be so sweet.
We're making a move, we're making it now
We're coming out of the sidelines
Just put your hands up, it's a raid, yeah
We want your homes, we want your lives
We want the things you won't allow us
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of, that's our minds, yeah
And that's our minds. Yeah
You are a legend
Sounds like a poem
@@ashiswrong yeah pulps got great lyrics, check out the song "I spy" read the lyrics. Fucked up song I love it
A.k.a, the Communist Manifesto.
Until today I thought the guns/bombs lines went 'We want cheap scones/We want James Bond' haha. I was only 12 when this came out. Thanks for the lyrics!
Genuinely surprised this song has never been used in an X Men movie
So underrated.
Lyrical genius.
Brilliant song. One of the tracks of my youth. I was one of the kids who were outcasts and this was one of the songs that spoke to me.
Same here!
I had no idea what this was about but now i do. Here's to the "weirdos" who're actually some of the most sane, intelligent, and creatively talented people out there. The ones calling us "weirdos" are just very traumatized children underneath the bravado and machoness not just the dudes but the girls like this too. When you finally stop being scared of them and telling yourself the story of what they did and how they're acting towards you and others you're free and it's such a relief🙂
This song rings true today more than ever.
I miss the 90's :(
I was 15 years old by the time this song came out and it meant the world to me. We shall prevail!
the album sent me mad and I never came down .
one of my best and fav albums from the 90s...... love it
I love how they just start playing straight ahead Bond music during the chorus
i discovered Pulp in my record store coz i thought the cover for This Is Hardcore looked awesome. been hooked ever since. !viva Pulp!
One of my Pulp favourites, Jarvis was peak sexy here.
BiggsyBiggs indeed
Jarvis Cocker looks like evil Spider-Man from Spider-Man 3....
fun fact: he was immobilized temporarily in 1985 from falling out a window doing a spider man impression, for the purpose of attempting to impress a girl
I thought it was emo peter
no Emo Peter looks like Jarvis :P
Pulp and Placebo were as intelligently and spiritually definitive for me as The Matrix and Gattaca were for the mid-late 90s.
The most realist song ever
Jarvis Cocker has the awsomeness personality of UK!!
Oasis or Blur? Pulp is the correct answer.
1995 great year for music films tv, and one great hot 🔥 🥵 summer ☀️. 😅
What a band, what a record time machine please
"IT'S GOOOOOOOODDDD!!!!! IT'S GOOOOOOOODDDD!!!!!!!!!" Gets me every time
PULP is the best Britpop band period.
One of the best bands before britpop, during , and after.
class act, what band they were what the 90s was all about, you hear one of there songs, and boom flash back to the 90s, peace out people
Although I have one or two of their fantastic songs in my Spotify playlist, I have only in the last week or so 'discovered' Pulp (I lived in USA for a decade), and am totally and utterly obsessed with the band, the music and of course Jarvis. I actually like almost every one of their tracks, the videos are awesome and Jarvis is just so goddamn seductive in a way I cannot explain. Kinda like Bowie I guess? With music today so mediocre or a bad influence for kids due to crap like X-Factor or gang culture, to be able to get into such an outstanding band is refreshing. Now going to go watch all the other Pulp videos and load up the playlist! And keep practising guitar...
If you think he's bowie-esque and seductive, may I suggest Suede as well?
He comes across like that purely because he's just being himself...simple as that. They were writing great songs right from the start. That was 10+ years before their first "hit" single/LP!
Got to be my second favorite Pulp songs, such a criminally underrated song.
Masterpiece
My favourite song by Pulp. Cracking piece of work.
The chorus is fantastic
THANK YOUUUU, finally the full-length version!
This is the rise of the geeks anthem. Growing up in the 90's it makes perfect sense.. A writer ahead of his time.
Without watching the video, it sounds like poor vs rich, rather than geeks vs society
@@rashotcake6945 Very rarely are the poor people who "learn too much at school". This song is for the outcast
It's exactly about being poor and "learning too much at school". It's about working class nerds and misfits, people like me and my friends. It's about the generation of working class kids, of whom Pulp were part of, who had more access to further and higher education (free tuition fees, polytechnic universities, community colleges, well resourced libraries etc), which then politicised them against the ruling system "We learnt too much at school now we can't help but see that the future that you've got mapped out is nothing much to shout about".
Also note the line "We'll use the one thing we've got more of and that's our minds."
It's about being working class, eccentric, and smarter than the stupid rich cunts in charge.
Source: I've been singing and dancing to this song for 25 years or whatever the fuck it is now. It is our anthem!
It's great to convince the geeks that they're in control. They're so eager! All that productivity yield.....
@@rashotcake6945 It's the Communist Manifesto.
the 10th doctor= Jarvis Cocker in space...
Yeah! But he reminds me more of a mashup between 10 and 11 ^^
I thought I was the only one who thought that!!
Yeah, I saw that video too.
In razzmatazz resembles the 10th Doctor, to Barty Crouch Jr ... Actually, Jarvis and David Tennant are very similar.
Very underated band
Underrated legends!
Just put your hands up, this is a raid...
What an anthem! I remember loving this when I was a painfully shy teenager who hated myself. This still sounds amazing, so sharp 😎
WE SHALL FLIGHT THEM IN THE BEACHES +
"THE KINGS HEAD" YOU KNOW THE SCORE
10 BLOKES WITH TACHES IN THE SHORT SLEEVED
WHITE SHIRT TELLING YOU THAT YOUR THE WEIRDO
FEAR NOT BROTHER + SISTER
WE SHALL PREVAIL
LIVE ON
Pulp on the goblet of fire 🔥
It´s GOOOOOD!!!
So this is what emo Peter Parker does in his spare time
I shouldn’t laugh but was funny that 😂
omg yes hahaha
I also thought of the Norman puppet from I Interpol’s “Evil” music video.
You’re name is familiar. Weren’t you like, one of the Beatles?
coincidentally, the emo Parker Pulp guy actually fell out of a window trying to impress a girl by impersonating SpiderMan.
Plus the 11th doctor who having a dance near the end
Jarvis kicks ass! 2023 IOW Festival - wow!
Pulp were so much better than blur and oasis :)
Someone had to say it.
Yes. No one could've said it better.
Indeed. And I LIKE Blur and Oasis. So, y'know. There ya go.
Oasis were more of a football band. Pulp spoke the truth. Blur were absolute shit.
Well, like, that's your opinion, man.
Very thick. Cracked me up when I first heard it. So so cool.
Best pulp song x
It's goooooooddd it's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!! so happy to see them again in Santiago Chile this year!!!

Second best BritPop band, after Blur. Solid track.
Fantastic
Remember when we fought over Blur and Oasis? It was Pulp all along.
I uttered these exact words to my friends at a festival around ~2010 when I was the only one interested in seeing Pulp play live after a very long while. I won and I fell in love with Jarvis, again.
Simply Epic
