Dan Le Sac vs. Scroobius Pip - Tommy C

@frbjoernLA I love Tommy, but he was a tight, heavy drinker who hit his wife, I'm pretty sure he used a few naughty words from time to time. Just because he didn't swear on TV doesn't mean someone singing about him can't. That was the point, he appealed to everyone regardless of background

@andyt2k That makes two of us! joined by possibly millions of others. I am not sure he used naughty words or got drunk or beat his wife. I was never present to see or hear any of that. I like millions of others loved Tommy Cooper. I was a kid when he was becoming popular. He was truly funny and I repeat never publicly drunk or vulgar, a Comedian/Magician who brought clean joy to possibly millions. Isn't this how we should remember him? rather than speculating about negative rumors about him!

@andyt2k I love Tommy cooper also. English is was second language. But I understood everything he ever said and was charmed and entertained by Him. I started watching him many, many years ago. I never saw him hit his Wife, or heard him use off colour words. I also heard that he was tight but I don't know any of this as a fact!! I do not understand the heavy accent in this recording. This irritating accent does not sound like a tribute to the great Tommy Cooper. May his soul rest in peace.

Tommy n Scroobius deep respect

@DannyCBrennan Oh Course you are correct, my opinion was more than a little harsh. I am sorry! I over reacted emotionally. Tommy Cooper was one of my Hero's since I was very young, and since English is not my first language particularly as spoken in certain parts of England. I thought the background voice was making a mockery of Tommy Cooper. Please forgive my insensitive comment

Loving this my fellow magicians will love it too, great work :)

@snewt amazing line...i was going to type that up myself till i noticed it was the 2nd top rated comment

@SuperActionForceGo Thank you for your comment. As I indicated, English is not my first language. I loved Tommy Cooper as a Child and I understood him. As I indicated, I thought the voice singing in the background was making a mockery of Tommy Cooper who did not have an accent like that. Once again, I am sorry for the misunderstanding. May Tommy's soul rest in peace in Heaven!

wowww this is incredible

wonderful

@oh9ah6 a legendary british comedian who died on stage during his act while the audience just laughed and clapped believing it to be part of his show

@ArmoredFelix agreed!!

@oh9ah6 As the song could've told you.

@snewt i can, his names scroobious pip...

@oh9ah6 A comedian

@oh9ah6 The greatest comedian ever!

his name is Dan Le Sac scroobious pip is a poem.

Eh, no? Scroobius Pip s the POET and Dan Le Sac is the DJ.

His beard is more beautiful... always.

Wir auch. ♥

You are an idiot.

You're right, Scroobious Pip is a poem. But Scroobius Pip is the poet (of this).

yes Scroobious Pip was the poem by Lear, but Dan le Sac is the Dj for the poet who flows on these songs who goes by Scroobius Pip.

Half the time the music is too loud to even hear the guy... sound engineering fail.

2.55 - 3.05 - lyrics get no better than this - I'll hold my hands up - I can't think of 'one fucking thing more beautiful than that...'

I'm not usually into this kind of music but it's dedicated to Tommy Cooper, it can't be bad.

thank you for this there was an episode of the simpsons where Krusty almost died like this.

Another reason I love adblock.

This is just fantastic, totally original in a world of carbon copy music

this is about the same tommy the who wrote about!

13 Folks got no sense of humor :)

Took the family out for a meal last week. Ordered everything from the menu in French, surprised everyone. It was a Chinese restaurant.

I do miss my wife's cooking. Every chance I get. She isn't the best cook, she thinks poached eggs are illegal.

Scroobious talent!

this is very beautifully done, thanks Blackbookz

Was tommy an actual shriner or just liked the hat?

33 years ago today.

Voice is practically drowned out. 😔😔

My name is Tom C :D

“Itchy teeth”

What a track, love it Mr Pip

l'chaim salam fez man

Thanks, I'd never heard of Tommy Cooper before this track, and I might never have seen footage of him without your video. It's nice to have good folks immortalized.

Still a timelessly classic track.

man, my dad showed me scroobius pip, and when i was young we saw him live at camp bestival and he high fived my sister lol. But it was always so different from anything I'd heard to I always held an appreciation for him. And I particularly love this song because I remember my grandad, who i rarely see now, showed me videos of him. And it's just a beautiful message overall.

I was watching live when he passed away on stage

I just went to show this to a friend like 10 years after it came out and really appreciate your setting it to this video

This is a great track man.

You tube algorithm dropping bangers lately , rip Tommy
