Your Missus Is a Nutter
"Your Missus is a Nutter" is a song by the Welsh satirical rap act Goldie Lookin Chain. It has more of a "rock" sound than their previous records, heavily drawing on a sample taken from Serge Gainsbourg's song cannabis.
The video for the song, directed by Ben Ib is based on the film Weird Science, spoofing the section where the boys wear bras on their heads and create a woman on a computer who becomes real. The "nutter missus" in the video also closely resembles the character of Regan from the film The Exorcist.
"Your Missus is a Nutter" is the first single from the group's second album, Safe as Fuck.
The single reached #14 in the UK. They dedicated the song to Victoria Beckham, which resulted in them being summoned by the Newport mayor's office, who also objected to the title of their album, Safe as Fuck.
In a further controversial incident in 2005, GLC were invited by the Football Association of Wales to perform before the World Cup Qualifying match against England at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium. Perhaps unsurprisingly, given the nature of the band's music and the participation of England star David Beckham, the band dedicated "Your Missus is a Nutter" to the footballer's wife, who was present at the match. The ensuing furore, with the Welsh football authorities having to apologise to the Beckhams as well as expressing outrage at the band's perceived lack of respect, prompted many people to question exactly why the organisers had hired them to play in the first place.
