Absolutely the most fun I've ever had making a video. I recruited everyone I knew. The producer (he's on the phone next to me), my ex-girlfriends, all my mates (Steve, Chris, Lee, Mole...to name but a few) stood on a conveyor belt and "performed" as they passed the camera. We originally wanted to shoot it in one take - but ended up cutting it. It was summer, we were young, it was great. Not the best video I've ever made - but the most enjoyable. Miles
Were you the video director, Miles? Fancy seeing you here on CZcams! :D Oh wait, you commented like 13 years ago, lol... Thank you for giving us this adorable little slice of happy Madchester heaven!
OMG . . . Just went to your channel and got introduced to Charlotte Cheng ! ! ! THIS IS THE ASIAN ONE-WOMAN BAND INSPIRATION I NEEDED. It is truly inspiring to see someone who looks like me, making amazing music like this, all by herself in her little room. Maybe this COVID-19 lockdown doesn't have to be all doom & gloom after all... Better get to work on my mic and keyboard and CUBASE 10. THANK YOU ! ! !
@@dollcefina Hi, this is Miles again (with another of my CZcams accounts). Dear God, I can't believe I first commented 13 years ago! Crazy. Glad you enjoyed it. Great days - particularly as I hung out with the band when they were in London. Two wonderful artists. This song should have been huge.
Obviously made on a budget of about 10p, but this does - for better or worse - reflect the baggy rave scene of the summer of 1990 as it was. Great tune that deserved to be a hit, and did get plenty of airplay on "One FM".
ZEITGEIST ! I love these Band´s - RAVE ON RAVE ON LUTION !!!! It was a very short time of RE ...Flowerd Up, Inspiral C, Happy M, Charlatans, Stone r, State.......LOVE IT !!!!
Miles, the video is great....I remember 1990 when I moved to London, and went dance at Heaven....good times....here in Brasil nobody knows Candy Flip...=(
candy flip..I remember strawberry fields..I always wanted this record..being a house head, this was the cool shit..burlap sweaters, stomps, or hubblecrafts..curly kits acid ..chillin in the village ny..
God I spent that summer so god damn high, in fact previous summer as well prob a few after that as well. Flipped my candy a few times but always had the green to put me back on earth. Remember kids avoid drugs u don't want to turn out like me with all these great memories a good job great kids and lovely partner. Fell the love and be happy
lol i cant help but laugh the name of this band comes from the term candy flippin' which is to take lsd and exstacy at the same time, and it toootally makes sense with the kind of videos and lyrics these guys have. its great.
The time i converted all my straight mates 2 the Gay way way of life! MDMA was a wonderful discovery! Such Happy memories,not a care or bad word aimed at me or the world around me 4 a good couple of years...No one cares if i'm gay anymore...It's Fantastic! I Love the 21st Century!!!!
you're argument is that millions of people look up drug videos on youtube. Genius boy. No need for hating what you aren't a part of. Don't drugs teach you that?
GAY IS OKAY - but yeah, according to those who know the guys, they're actually hetero! ;D I LOVE that everyone was so blissed out in those days, it was okay to love whomever you love, it didn't matter!
I love candy flipping MDMA+LSD=CANDY FLIPPING.......... LOL XD "THESE TOO GUY'S ARE ALSOME" IF ONLY THEY WOULD HAVE MADE MORE MUSIC. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THEM? DO THEY STILL MAKE MUSIC?

@@filmfestdistribution6452 in my world it was huge, I listen to it and the whole album over and over again, and I absolutely love the video!!!
@Nostalgic Tunes Agree. It was a great tune and a perfect pop song. The guys in the band were so cool and friendly too.
Brilliant band 👍👏👏🔥🔥🔥❤️ amazing track 💯👏👏👏👏👏

I remember listening to this when I was 17 back in like 1992. this was 1 of my favorite cd's.
I miss being 8 in England and listening to this in summer time
ZEITGEIST ! I love these Band´s - RAVE ON RAVE ON LUTION !!!! It was a very short time of RE ...Flowerd Up, Inspiral C, Happy M, Charlatans, Stone r, State.......LOVE IT !!!!
bloody hell, i forgot these two had more than that one beatles cover as a hit. I forgot about this. brings back memories.
You had to be around at the time in the uk, long time ago but a great time and this invokes some great memories.
this is definitely a feel good song. i've never heard it, but i already luv that early 90s Brit scene, so i dig it!
I always wondered why it was so tough to get this Album in the USA at the not inflated price.
How cute are they! Love it! Memories from 18 years ago! Where are they now?
Dizzie Dee is now Danny Mekanik DJing in Barcelona. AKA Sure is Pure, Soul Mekanik, organising parties under the name wOnK 👍🏻
Erano anni che cercavo questa canzone bellissima! Grazie!!!!! Avevo 15 anni !!!!
Translation: _I had been looking for this beautiful song for years! Thanks!!!!! I was 15 years old !!!!_
Miles, the video is great....I remember 1990 when I moved to London, and went dance at Heaven....good times....here in Brasil nobody knows Candy Flip...=(

Chris Day Yes! It does.
I’m 48 in a few days, it does not get easier.
Chris Day 44 homie
I miss those days❤
Super song and production. I love the bleepy sounds from the keyboard.
The art direction on this is amazing.
For the fact that these guys never really made it.. This actually isn't too bad.
I miss the ever sunny fluo days of the 90s
candy flip..I remember strawberry fields..I always wanted this record..being a house head, this was the cool shit..burlap sweaters, stomps, or hubblecrafts..curly kits acid ..chillin in the village ny..
Burlap sweaters?? That sounds really scratchy, lol!! :D
Top tune 👍🏻
Thank you for your time, oh I miss those time 🙏🇧🇪
That key board is sick!!! Jesus bless this!!! Love it!
gr8 d .good artwork. album tracks are groovy too including "ask why"' and "love is life".
God I spent that summer so god damn high, in fact previous summer as well prob a few after that as well. Flipped my candy a few times but always had the green to put me back on earth. Remember kids avoid drugs u don't want to turn out like me with all these great memories a good job great kids and lovely partner. Fell the love and be happy
lol
i cant help but laugh
the name of this band comes from the term candy flippin' which is to take lsd and exstacy at the same time, and it toootally makes sense with the kind of videos and lyrics these guys have.
its great.
Ohhhhh I see! I was wondering what it referred to. (Never taken drugs myself...)
This version is much better than the version on their album "madstock"
Y'know, you're right. Album version's okay, but this one's better! :D
Album version:

Baggy drum beats...were hot in the 90s

I am so happy that you are happy, Marcus. I have been fighting for LGBT rights for decades now, here in Canada! :D 🌈👬👭🏳️🌈

I like Sebastian Vettel tripping there.
you're argument is that millions of people look up drug videos on youtube. Genius boy. No need for hating what you aren't a part of. Don't drugs teach you that?
Nice
I remeber fist time I saw this clip here in Spain on Mtv. I wanted a flared trousers like they were!
Man I always wondered why Sebasien Vettel looked so familiar...
you're argument is that millions of people look up drug videos on youtube. Genius boy.
those were the days of acid house and this kind of shit. great to hear again.
100% ecstasy
Love it according to it's own merits.
I liked this .never charted though.
❤
Number 60. Shame that. Great little catchy song. Think Ric Peet is a funny guy!
@zoe1974 then why are you watchin it dude? I'm from the usa too and I think the madchester/uk scene had great songs.
love this, a lot.
Tune.
Like finding gold

Its nearly as good as the overall direction. I wonder where these two guys are now?
The singer has produced Robbie Williams since.
IBIZA 1990!!!
I agree - great art director. Wonder what became of him?
^ LOL ! ! ! ;D Well, so have you made any more vids lately, Miles??
2020
@risteard01 yes they did mate...and soul mekanik and currently run top nites in staffs England called WoNk...very different from this tho eh.....
Sounds like Louie Walsh's fantasy
They were from Stoke on Trent, hence the album title 'Madstoke'.
No, the album is called *_MADSTOCK..._* (like Woodstock). Look here:

@markstar has uploaded a higher-quality version of this video:
*Candy Flip - This Can Be Real (SD)*
czcams.com/video/-2iSQTv74Tg/video.html
This song was and still is fucking epic!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
one of them did the pixie guy went off and did other things
lol, speaking of which, i jus called my friend and he was candy flipping. HAHA
what is this a cover of? I don't know of a Beatles song called "This Can Be Real"
and it's not gay! it's just happy
All their own work. I miss 1990 :(
That was their other song "Strawberry Fields Forever "
This was one they actually wrote !!
If it were called 'This Can Be Unreal' it could be a Lennon-esque Beatles song . . . ;D
baggy the farm were baggy,is it happy pre rave/post rave all theses catogories
Should have been as big as Strawberry Fields...
'Strawberry Fields' was _okay_ , but I actually do prefer their originals! :D
remember this on the radio 1 roadshow broadcast in 1990 they sung live sort of was awful lol
cool song though
@chrisandgavin lol sort of??
Is that Russell Crowe at 1:09?
Definitely not.
@halcyondiz me too
brass
I love candy flipping MDMA+LSD=CANDY FLIPPING.......... LOL XD "THESE TOO GUY'S ARE ALSOME" IF ONLY THEY WOULD HAVE MADE MORE MUSIC. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THEM? DO THEY STILL MAKE MUSIC?
Ruben Alaniz They became producer's and artists as Sure is Pure
Danny Spencer ,the lead singer went on to form Sound 5 , in 1998 ,some of there music is here on CZcams.
@gunthoro you're the one who's using youtube to look at drugs. No need to rip on something you don't relate to.
This isn't Rave. It's "Baggy". Very homosexual "Baggy".
@duranasty No. It's like i said. VERY GAY BAGGY.
