EXCLUSIVE: Jevan Goulter's lost music video unearthed

Jun 11, 2019 People

 

EXCLUSIVE: Following this morning’s explainer on one of the most mystifying men in politics, Jevan Goulter, Metro can now reveal his long-lost 2012 video LOUD, described as “a bad high school speech, auto-tuned”.

Thought to be lost to the mists of time, the video has been helpfully provided by Dan News.

Featuring the world’s first transgender MP Georgina Byer and a small cast who intermittently call out Goulter’s name (“Je-van!”) along with other less audible backing vocals, the video also features Goulter himself dancing on the steps of Parliament in a (faux?) fur jacket, and taunting his haters while dressed as a little boy sailor with a life ring around his neck.

Oddly political (why Parliament?!), this thankfully resuscitated video is surely a national treasure.

Lyrics are as follows:

I been around

And look who’s laughing now

I got the sound

It’s time to turn it up loud

I’ve been around

And look who’s judging now

I’ve got the sounds

Yeah I make it loud

 [JEVAN!]

I make it loud

[JEVAN!]

I make it loud

[JEVAN!]

I make it loud

[JEVAN!]

I make it loud

 

Our nation’s paparazzi

Are writing shit about me

The blogs are going crazy

Jevan’s a headline story

Creating controversy

Coz this is all about me

Infamous in that scene

Coz they all love to hate me (hahaha)

My gear’s in overdrive

Pulling that 9 to 5

You can’t stop me

I will survive

Lovin’ livin’ my life

I live it loud

 

Then things get kind of hard to parse, but the lines go something like:

I live it loud

[Nothing can stop me now]

[Pulling that 9 to 5]

[JE-VAN!]

I will survive

Lovin’ livin’ my life

[J-J-JEVAN!]

And then Georgina Byer says: “Is that T for Trannie?”, pointing at the cross around her neck. Because she’s dressed as a priest, obviously.

FIN.
