Hey Jamie! I just randomly re-watched this Daily Mail song, and saw your comment. Clicked on your channel, and it turns out you're a photographer with great tips. Subscribed. I do photography as a hobby.
As an American, it took me a while to realize how shitty the Daily Mail was, until when a kid in my year in highschool was murdered , and, when trying to find information about it, I stumbled into a Daily Mail article that seemed solely devoted to talking about how expensive the house was, and how nice the hardwood floors a 16 year old kid was found dead with his parents on were. From that moment on I have hated the Daily Mail, not just because it is a shitty sensationalist tabloid formatted like a broadsheet, but because of the incident when they found reporting on how attractive a possibly soon on the market real estate listing would be, more important than reporting on a murder-suicide (murder-murder-suicide?) that caused wrecked a community, caused a sixteen year old child's life to ended at 10th grade, and a college student was left with her family torn from her all of a sudden, with no opportunity to say goodbye. I will always hate the Daily Mail for this.
They are still at it! A recent article about the savage murder of a mother and child by her estranged husband saw fit to compare what they paid for the house and what it was worth now. You really just have to marvel at the evil banality of this grotesque little rag and the mentality of the people who write and read it.
It really is the THE epitome of tabloid, trash journalism, marketed at the upper middle class. Racist, sexist, bottom wipe publication . And the comments section is beyond repulsive alt- right propaganda.
When I was a kid, my mum (an avid DM reader) told me that eating cheese that has been wrapped in cling film will give you cancer! This was also around the time when I realised that saying "Did you read that shit in the Daily Mail?" would drive her crazy. I've used it ever since. This song is bang on the money. Great work!
@Gary Mackridge unfortunately I know a handful of DM readers. They are absolutely obsessed with Cancer, people who have cancer and reading about people with..... Any one would think it was the only disease on the planet. They like Nigel Farridge and hate Meghan Markle. Just realised I gotta dump those people. Will do it tomorrow 👍
@@miloandalfie5509 I bet DM is their only source of information too. Another favourite pov of my mum's (from the DM) is that wind farms don't generate much electricity. I always say "why would they build them then??" Crazy
They do have downsides though like lulls in wind activity and energy storage. They also use a fair amount of oil. Nuclear getting better and safer is much needed. Finland if I'm not mistaken uses majority Nuclear and wind.
A banker, an asylum seeker, and a Daily Mail reader are all sitting down having morning coffee when a tray with 10 biscuits is brought over. The banker takes 9 of the biscuits and then tells the Daily Mail reader "Watch out for that asylum seeker. He's going to try and take your biscuit away."
I especially love the order in which the headlines were chosen. "Bring back capital punishment for peadophiles" is followed immediately by "Photo feature on schoolgirl skirt styles" nice work you two.
@@hempson1 Lol!! Good to see the looney left are alive and well and are STILL sharing the same lame brain cell. Anyhoo, I'm off up the city to say hello to a great!! GREAT!! President!!😁😀🖕👌🇺🇸
Where are you Dan and Dan? The last time I saw you was in the canteen at BBC TVC when you were about to make a pilot for the BBC. We need Dan and Dan more than ever. Please come back!
Says someone who appears to be a reader of fake news right-wing media. The Daily Mail are batcrap crazy and their followers are so gullible it feels like their IQs are negative numbers.
The sarcasm dripping from this song - perfect. The perfect song to summarise my hatred and disrespect for the Daily Mail. Nothing affection about this send-off.
I'm from Germany, and here, we have a so-called "newspaper" named the BILD (lit. "PICTURE"), that's pretty much the same as the Daily Mail, in terms of intellectual level (or the lack thereof) and bullshit news. Congratulations on that song, made me laugh way harder than I expected it to. Also, congrats to the guy in the comments who transcribed the lyrics and chords, I started playing it right away after I heard the song and read his comment.
BILD and the Daily Mail certainly play in the same sport as far as the yellow press is concerned. But they are not even close to playing in the same league.
Congratulations on having a better command of English than the majority of Daily Mail readers. The use of "or the lack thereof" surprised me as I'd have thought that would be an English-as-first-language thing, is there a direct equivalent in German or are you just really, good at picking up little quirks of foreign languages?
I sadly read a Daily Mail article today. I got sucked into the click bait title, mostly because I actually knew it was actually wrong about said topic. Kinda glad I did, the amount of made up facts made me laugh so much. And it reminded of this amazing song.
Twelve solid years, it's been. And I still think about this every time I see a Daily Mail headline. Really, you have to be a little bit impressed for sheer consistency.
I'm rewatching this for about the 10th time over the years and the amount of juxtapositioning in this is just glorious. Every headline is used as commentary for the last.
@@romangiertych5198 or the year after that. Few more women celeb trolling deaths on their bloody hands now tho. Obsessed they are with trolling women, hounding them literally to death. Amy Winehouse, Caroline Flack, abusing Ms Markle. Complain to Ipso.
"I'm just going to wash my hands, I think.." "I would if I were you" Showed it to my mum and she laughed her head off and shared it on Facebook. She is now a big fan of yours, Dan. And of course, a big fan of Dan.
***** They once produced a non story about some guy from Malawi who joined my school claiming he was 14 when he looked like a fully grown adult. The top comment was: 'X ray his bones and teeth, that will tell you his age. We should be doing this for ALL asylum seekers and African immigrants claiming to be minors' *4500 thumbs up*
They once (Jan 29 2016) had a story purportedly about a Swedish schoolkid with refugee background claiming to be much younger than he was. They used a picture of him "racing his classmates" where he was visibly 5-6 years older than them. Problem was, the pic + story was knicked from nazi websites, who had re-purposed" a real local news story. In reality, the guy had refugee background but came here with his parents when he was six. He is a runner, and the picture was not of him "racing his classmates". His old school had invited him to visit after he won a championship, to inspire the kids to run more. So he was 15 and running with these 10-year-old schoolkids in the picture. When the Daily Mail was informed, instead of correcting the story, they blocked Swedish access to it online.
@@Harvester236 half a decade later, 2020. The DM, pro Trump propaganda, and referring to civil rights protesters as a "violent mob". I didn't know you could be violent to bricks and mortar.
I'm torn between thinking they have the editorial policy of Chicken Licken and thinking they hate everyone not in their preferred demographic. Probably both. Then there's the wonderful hypocrisy of the dead tree version campaigning vigorously against the sexualisation of children and for mandatory internet porn filters, while their online version seems to be a celebrity gossip magazine with a newspaper attached - with drawing attention to the body shape / fashion choices of celebrity youngsters perfectly OK in their world view.
Great video and reading all those headlines is enough to induce a cluster headache and trigger a tumour. No wait.... Reading the Wail induces tumors. Now that I could believe.
This is so cool! If it winds up Daily Heil readers than great. I always used the Daily Mail to line our cat’s litter tray, so she could add her s**t to the s**t already in it!
So true it hurts, I'm so embarrassed that my family reads that rag, fortunately I have never read a single page. In fact I don't read newspapers because I've tried and I nearly fell into a coma.
The insane focus on young women is so utterly surprising because the Daily Mail was previously considered a "women's newspaper", with at least some women working there. It must be hard to find the right sleeping drugs.
+PokemonTom09 The whole world has a version or versions of it. 5 billionaires control 80% of the world's media and guess who wants to maintain the status quo?
Can't believe I'm watching this again in 2020 (and enjoying it just as much as I did the first, second and 1000000th time years ago). All the best, Dans!
This tuneful bunch of fake headlines was hilarious when I first saw it years ago . . . but since then, people really do make up "Daily Mail News" - believe it - and share it like they're facts! Truth really is stranger than fiction.
Hahaha!!! I have shared your video on facebook and the response has been astounding! I am glad to hear that most of my friends understand the motivations of the Daily Mail.
