Mighty Boosh Electro Clip 1 You Fear Jazz

[jackmanley]

2 people who watched this don't hate jazz. They fear jazz, with its lack of boundaries

[adam-bfli]

The opening of this video gave me a panic attack. The lack of rules and the chaos shook me to my core.

[RalphBrooker-gniv]

In fairness to Howard, you never slap someone in a jazz trance. 🎷

[nothininterestinn]

What's happening? The shapes; the chaos

[srTraseroRojo]

it was just `tuning up` before them....brilliant

[urzaz]

"I was deep in the juju then, I was chasing the train."

[kidkeith]

This may be the best sketch of all time . That's the Human League.

[coldacre]

the scene that made me love the Boosh.

[BlackSailPass_GuitarCovers]

Oh, it's a fence. No, it's soft. Aughh.

[lynne]

"This is my early morning procedure..."

[lynne]

...distributin' seeds amongst the hoofed mammals, perhaps?...

[KatchRocketman]

Spoiler: Vince spills his seed onto Howard's face.

[ihmyfriends]

If you don’t like the Cowboy Bebop theme song, you’re deaf.

[natelay]

I like how the music abruptly stops when vince slaps him

[thatguyyoudontknow]

I am always, in my daily life, saying it to people...

"I was deep in the juju then, I was chasing the Trane!"


This show was amazing.

Also, the slap making the jazz stop is a beautiful touch (no pun intended).

Edit: Trane, because Howard is referring to John Coltrane.

[pedromsampaio]

I dance no music... But jazz.... It Just make me skib dib pah

[RamonaVirus]

Do you think the train he was chasing was John Col-train?

Howard Moon (HM): I’m going to get around to my work, aren’t I? This is my early morning procedure. Listen to my jazz, get myself juiced up, then go about my business
Vince Noir (VN): No you don’t. You put your jazz on, go into a trance, ten past 6:00pm and go to the pub. That’s your day… later
HM: That is just making me feel physically sick. What is that gloomy racket?
VN: That’s the Human League!
HM: That is electro nonsense
VN: They’re electro pioneers; they invented music
HM: Invented music?! What happened before them then?
VN: It was just tuning up before then
HM: Are you area of the music known as jazz? Are you aware of jazz music, the movement known as jazz?
VN: Why do you keep going on about jazz?
HM: Because it’s the most important art form of the in the century.
VN: No one listens to jazz. Science teachers and the mentally ill, that’s all jazz is for
HM: You better take that back, you electro punts
VN: I hate jazz
HM: You hate jazz? You fear jazz.
VN: Shut your mouth.
HM: Aw yeah, Yeah you fear jazz don’t you?
VN: You fear the lack of rules, the lack of boundaries. Oooh! It’s a fence! No, it’s soft! Ahh, what’s happening? The shapes! The chaos! Has to be simple little nursery rhymes for you, huh? Simple little “dee dee dee de dee-dee.” Soon as the melody gets abstract you mess your trousers and run to your mommy.

When it gets abstract, you mess your trousers

[bobweird]

I wonder if they also fear drinking Bailey's from a shoe.
