Also like the Quiet Riot remake of this song. Both are hard rocking.

Good evening my friend SGT (Join to see) and thank you for sharing the music video of Slade performing "Mama Weer All Crazy Now" in honor of the fact that on September 9, 1972, Slade was at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'Mama Weer All Crazee Now' the group's third UK No.1.
Slade was an English rock band from Wolverhampton.
Flashback to the early 1970s :-)
I well remember Gudbuy T'Jane and Cum On Feel The Noize. I owned a couple of their albums - Slayed and Slayed Alive :-)
From all music guide
"Comprised of singer/guitarist Noddy Holder (born Neville Holder, June 15, 1946 in Walsall, West Midlands, England), guitarist Dave Hill (born April 4, 1946, in Fleet Castle, Devon, England), bassist Jimmy Lea (born June 14, 1949, Wolverhampton, West Midlands, England), and drummer Don Powell (born September 10, 1946, Bilston, West Midlands, England), the group originally formed in the spring of 1966 under the name the In-Be-Tweens, playing out regularly with a mixture of soul and rock tracks."
"By the end of '60s, the group had changed their name to Ambrose Slade and signed on with the Fontana label. Soon after, the quartet hooked up with Animals bass player-turned-manager Chas Chandler (who had discovered Jimi Hendrix a few years prior), who promptly suggested the group shorten the name to just Slade and assume a "skinhead" look (Dr. Martin boots, shaved heads) as a gimmick."
Slade also utilized another gimmick, humorously misspelled song titles, as evidenced by such singles as "Coz I Luv You," "Look Wot You Dun," "Take Me Bak 'Ome," "Mama Weer All Crazee Now," "Gudbuy t'Jane," "Cum on Feel the Noize," "Skweeze Me, Pleeze Me," and "Merry Xmas Everybody" (the latter of which re-entered the charts every holiday season for years afterward)."
"Mama Weer All Crazy Now" originally the work of bassist Jim Lea; and his writing partner Noddy Holder was responsible for the lyrics
Lyrics
"I don't want to drink my whisky like you do
I don't need to spend my money but still do
Chorus
Don't stop now a c'mon
another drop now c'mon
I want to lot now so c'mon
That's right, that's right
I said Mama but we're all crazy now
I said Mama but we're all crazy now
I said Mama but we're all crazy now
A you told me fool fire water won't hurt me
A you…"
Background from
"This was originally the work of bassist Jim Lea; it was the first tune he wrote completely on his own. However, his writing partner Noddy Holder was responsible for the lyrics, standing on the stage after a typically boisterous London show and surveying the smashed seating left in the auditorium. "I thought everyone must have been crazy tonight," he later said.
The song was originally titled "My My We're All Crazy Now." The title was changed by their manager Chas Chandler, and the intentional misspelling became a Slade trademark years before Prince adopted a similar convention. Some of their other hits were "Look wot You Dun," "Cum On Feel The Noize" and "Skweeze Me Pleeze Me."
In the UK Slade enjoyed 16 Top 10 hits including six #1s. They didn't enjoy the same success in the US, where their biggest hit was "Run Runaway," which peaked at #20 in 1984. They had just one other American Top 40: "My Oh My" (#37) also in 1984.
The American metal band Quiet Riot broke big with a cover of Slade's "Cum On Feel The Noize" in 1983. For their next album, they did "Mama Weer All Crazee Now," issuing it as the first single. It reached #51, marking their last Hot 100 appearance. "We were already getting the stigma of, 'You had a hit with somebody else's song,'" their drummer, Frankie Banali, said in a Songfacts interview. "I could see the writing on the wall coming on that one."
