Video Archives: Blue Song ~ Mint Royale - dir. Edgar Wright (2003)
Back in 2003, I distinctly remember Mint Royale’s label questioning my casting of Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt in my Blue Song video. They wanted someone bigger, even despite our low budget and the fact that both actors were working for free to help me out.
I told the label that they would soon be huge. Cut to a few years later and they are now cult superstars all over the planet.
See the young Boosh boys along with Michael Smiley and Nick Frost in my getaway driver musical number. Another video that I am very proud of. Hope you enjoy it.
I’m getting interested in all this new music because of all these videos. Thanks, Edgar!
I love that you can pull this off. A pushy, fun, energetic music video with one of the Boosh Boys in a car, rockin’ out…
Who knew it could be done?

This song is so catchy. Great video.
This is still one of my favorite all-time music videos. Every time I watch it I wish it were a full-length feature film. One of these days you need to get the same cast together to make a Mighty Boosh/Nick Frost bank heist film!
It’s a brilliant. I love this video )))
I’m from Saint-Petersburg, Russia and there is a lot of people in my country who like “Spaced”, “Shaun of the dead” and of course “Hot fuzz”. )) And we are waiting for Piligrim.
I wrote this just for say thanks for your comedy vision! We love your movies! ))
I hadn’t realised Noel and Julian had done this vid for free. Bless ‘em.
The Mighty Boosh’s bid for world domination has been long over due!!
I love this song! Edgar, you are the reason I am a Mint Royale fan.
this would be the greatest heist cast ever…
Aah bless ya Pieface, I was being flippant and i reckon Edgar was just teasing you
yes i realised after it was prob his trademark dryness!
Sweet video Edgar. Some choce talent. And It’s also great seeing Mr.Smiley again.
I wake up to this song every morning after having found it on your MySpace. Love the song. Love the video.
Great song and a most excellent video!
One of my Favorite Videos !!
