It's Music Monday! This is another FanGeek request! Reacting to Faith No More's cover of the Bee Gee's 'I Started A Joke'! ►Become a patron for access to exclusive reaction videos not available on YouTube!   / angeltalionfiendishfangirl   "I Started a Joke" is a song by the Bee Gees from their 1968 album Idea, which was released as a single in December of that year. It was not released as a single in the United Kingdom, where buyers who could not afford the album had to content themselves with a Polydor version by Heath Hampstead. This is the last Bee Gees single to feature Vince Melouney's guitar work, as he left the band in early December after this song was released as a single. Faith No More originally covered "I Started a Joke" as a B-side for their 1995 single "Digging the Grave." It also appeared on some versions of their fifth studio album, King for a Day... Fool for a Lifetime, but following the band's dissolution in 1998, it was released as a single with their greatest hits album Who Cares a Lot?. The music video was filmed on 8 September 1998, after Faith No More had disbanded five months earlier, and featured none of the band members. It was directed by Vito Rocco, filmed by Nick Sawyer with make-up by Julie Nightingale and Dani Richardson with Gabi Norland as the clapper loader. British actors Martin Freeman and Shaun Dingwall both feature in the promo, along with performance artist David Hoyle as the karaoke singer, and also stars Michelle Butterly of the ITV series Benidorm. Derren Litten, the writer of Benidorm and a contributor to The Catherine Tate Show, is also seen in the video.
