February 4, 200718 yr Isn't Alfie a bit similar to Puppet On A String? [flash=450,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Upfx2LMN7r8.swf
February 4, 200718 yr Yes it is. My mum pointed this out when she first heard it...but I think it's like that on purpose. More like an homage than a rip off.
February 4, 200718 yr I hate Lily with a passion, but that video is EXCELLENT. :lol: No doubt it will need heavy editing before it goes to TV. -_-
February 4, 200718 yr Not normally a fan of her music, but I really like Alfie. Video is brilliant too.
February 4, 200718 yr Video now added to the opening post. I'm not Lily's biggest fan by a long stretch, but the video is hilarious & brilliant and will really help to sell the song. Considering how much the song is a homage to Sandie Shaw's Puppet On A String, I think it is genius to have a puppet in the video. I will be hard pushed to see a better new pop video this year. :wub:
February 8, 200718 yr Really love this song, great video. It should be a big hit regardless of it being the 4th single of her album.
February 8, 200718 yr Great video, especially the bit where she gets a punch! :) Edited February 8, 200718 yr by JakeWild
February 8, 200718 yr Alfie looks about 12 years old and his eyes look like red holes :P he looks like he's on pot :kink: although sh does say it at the start 'sumat sumat weed' Pot head kid :lol:
February 8, 200718 yr Alfie Lyrics: Ooooo deary me My little brother's in his bedroom smoking weed I tell him he should get up cause it's nearly half past three He can't be bothered 'cause he's high on thc I ask him very nicely if he'd like a cup of tea I can't even see him cause his room is so smokey Don't understand how one can watch so much tv My baby brother alfie how I wish that you could see Chorus Oooooo I only say it 'cause I care So please can you stop pulling my hair Now, now there's no need to swear Please don't despair my dear mon frere Ooooo alfie get up it's a brand new day I just can't sit back and watch you waste your life away You need to get a job because the bills need to get paid Get off your lazy arse Alfie please use your brain Surely there's some walls out there that you can go and spray I'm feeling guiltier for leading you astray Now how the hell do you ever expect that you'll get laid When all you do is stay and play on your computer games? Chorus Oh little brother please refrain from doing that I'm trying to help you out so can you stop being a t*** It's time that you and I sat down and had a little chat And look me in the eyes take off that stupid fitted cap Chorus Please don't despair Please don't despair No mon frere (??)
