"Not twinned with anywhere but it's got a suicide pact with Gdansk"... the surrealism of that sentence just made with laugh for 5 minutes straight
-
"A lack of intestinal fortitude." The vernacular of this man is next level
-
I love the fact that everyone on in the show listens in awe. Especially Susie.
-
Lee Mack normally takes the piss out of everyone with sarcastic remarks, but he seems to have a real genuine admiration for John Cooper Clarke.
-
I always think JCC should be cast as Doctor Who. If you ever really met a 1000-plus year old Time Lord, he'd be exactly like this.
-
John doesnt seem to roast anyone's poem and just happy to watch people try and write their own.
-
Very witty and funny guy, wish theyâd bring him on more.
-
'Reversing into the future together' Genius.
-
John Cooper Clarke is a legend, I remember seeing him at Blackpool winter gardens, he was such a star. Also the most commercially successful poet in music who isnât a singer/songwriter.
-
I met JCC at Stanstead airport a few years ago, after a brief chat he asked where I was going, I told him Latvia and he immediately said "Where's that via?" Genius.
-
Sometimes in life you are alive at the same time as a genius. John Cooer Clarke is a one of those and we are with him â gotta count ourselves lucky
-
I get the impression JCC just loves words. They all made an effort and he couldn't get enough
-
Even Johns casual remarks seem like a line from a poem. Exhibit 1: "a roadblock on the highway of enlightenment"đ
-
Only two of my heroes have ever approached me and started talking. One was John Cooper-Clarke in Edinburgh in 1980 (and again on the London Underground in 1995). The other was Mark E Smith (The Fall) in Birmingham in 1997. Both John and Mark were born in Salford, a place (including neighbouring Prestwich and Broughton where they grew up) that should be proud of producing such friendly and down to Earth (as well as talented) people.
-
John Super Clark he is an absolute legend. A wordsmith genius.
-
I love the reverence and respect that they show to the great man. Truly a modern-day shakespeare reminding us to not regress to interactions such as 'wys bro'
-
"Shook hands and my whole right arm sobered up " - Dean Martin said about shaking hands with Pat Boone .
-
Absolutely love this guy ...I remember being a young punk and him being so cool. A Treasure
-
Petition for an "All of John Cooper Clarke" compilation
-
Can't believe we studied him in year 12 English in 1984, A master wordsmith at work
