"Howler" with Hank Green (Original)

[JAMBO4358]

I discovered the vlogbrothers because of this video. I've just realised that now, months later...

[hayleynymphadora1216]

What i hated about how they did half-blood prince was all of the leaving Tonks out of stuff! In that book, she was a MAIN character. When Harry was cursed by Draco on the train, it was supposed to be TONKS who rescued him, not Luna (i love Luna, and have nothing against her, but i'm just sayin) and she was supposed to be at the end, and everything. But what they did, is took her out of every part that she was supposed to be in, and put her in the Christmas scene,and in the book she as too upset.

[hayleynymphadora1216]

@hayleynymphadora1216 (too upset to go to Christmas,) because of Remus, and Sirius's death., Not to mention he hair was supposed to be Mousy grey, not brown and short......

[lostgrl06]

"Push back the release date" sounds like Pottermore.

[mysss29]

SO much win in this video.

[mammers101]

i love this

[trunksthebadass]

yeah they missed all of penisieve scences

[PenguinRiotChallenge]

Hank, Rupert is MINE!

[XxJinxxedxX]

At the end of the song I was just like, "Burn." Great song, I remember listening to it when it came out, but I forgot all about it. I'm glad I found it again. By the way Lauren you were great at Wrockstock and were one of my favorite performers there. :)

[TheMKThornton]

Great song! I love you two together! Are you really a Hufflepuff, Lauren?! I thought you were a Gryffindor?!

[TheGosbubblan]

Think everybody have felt like that sometime. You really want to boycott the movie but you know you can't, because in the end you would to anything to see it even if you knew it was crap

[potterlife1]

@1:39 That's Hank for you! Haha. Gotta love him.

[potterlife1]

that hermione's wand? Nice!

[potterlife1]

ank-you did have the power and you still do.

[potterlife1]

Another song to show my 8h period teacher. (he's my Lupin and will die from laughter ater watching this) Your right. I planned to not audition for my favorite musical because the movie would interfeir with the show and then Boom "lets move it back" we should have boycotted it though.

[twilighthp]

YES BRILLIANT! And it's so nice to see my home town Missoula on YouTube!

[Smsbulgaria]

"guess your malfoys after all" genius :)

are you're adorable, nice singing

[ThisisAidan]

She's effing adorable too!

[Nunnzii]

Ummm. What happens to your voice from about 2:07 to 2:09?

[oxymoronmeringue]

I FIND your song very catchy

[kaynanmg]

this is exactly how i felt... except i didn't sing... :D

[dolphin64575]

HUFFLEPUFF HUGS!

[TheRojoJojo]

Where did you get your Hogwarts Uniform? I want a Ravenclaw one! :D

[devilishlypure]

@TheRojoJojo A school uniform store, Whimsic Alley, and Alivans.

[TheHipsterNerd]

this was posted exactly 2 years before the last one.... =(

[sasuke1on1]

hey! what wrong with being a malfoy >.<

[devilishlypure]

@sasuke1on1 They value money over love. Like Warner Bros did.

[sasuke1on1]

@devilishlypure True Warner Bros are greedy but not ALL the malfoys are bad. >.> or that bad anyway.

[devilishlypure]

@sasuke1on1 Did I say they were bad? I thought I just said that they valued money over love.

[chelseadiemer]

@devilishlypure  I'm not so sure that they really did value money over love. They may have become death eaters, but they always did only what they could do to stay together as a family.

[hayleynymphadora1216]

@devilishlypure that is very true. they also ran away from the final battle at the end, whilst everyone else stayed to fight

[hayleynymphadora1216]

@sasuke1on1 No, Narcissa isn't THAT bad. Draco..... uugh, he's ok-ish. But Lucius... him i could live without

[AfroandBlondy]

@hayleynymphadora1216 I like lucius. He has a pimp cane.

[hayleynymphadora1216]

@AfroandBlondy haha nice......

[hayleynymphadora1216]

@hayleynymphadora1216 (I mean I knew that he had a 'pimp cane' if that's what you want to call it... it actually holds his wand...... but ... yeah)

[hayleynymphadora1216]

@sasuke1on1 everything. Everything is wrong with being a malfoy.

[ecogeek234]

For today I am changing the lyrics to "You can not let me in to it but you can't push back my excitement," for Pottermore

[booknerd12345511]

This movie was gonna come out on my birthday i was pretty mad when they changed the date

[LifeMustard]

@booknerd12345511 Ugh! That would have been a fantastic birthday!

[Silverballoons]

Does this sound like "I'm gonna kill you", or is it just me?

[KayeleeCL]

The best part? They did make more money.

[ddoglvr96]

whats the chord progression for this? i love this so much! 2 awesome youtubers + song writing = BEST THING EVER!

[devilishlypure]

@ddoglvr96 All of the chords for almost all of my songs, including this one, are on my website. :D

[ddoglvr96]

@devilishlypure oh! thank you! all your songs are really great!

[chipmunkmad08]

if they hadn't pushed back the release date then i would still hate harry potter :/ im glad they did it

[24nerdfighter]

Where did you get your outfit?

[OffensivePi]

@24nerdfighter While, at least the cardigan and probably the tie are from Alivan's. The rest are most likely from a school uniform store.

[pokemonmaster181818]

WHY HAVEN'T I HEARD ABOUT THIS SONG BEFORE?!?!?! but hey, good work :)

[TheNannyIsAbout]

1:39 Oh good, I wasn't the only one doing that :P

[TheYoubobble]

i went to universal and saw hogwarts and got Dumbledore and Snapes wands\

[ALLCAPSfan98726]

This was upload on July 15:/And at 1:40 humpy Hank?

[ALLCAPSfan98726]

This was upload on July 15:/

[LilyLilyLilyPotter]

Lauren, I love your personality and your awesome music!

[Ab3Lover]

That is so true

[TheDanrulez]

i would ;)

[crazyminilili]

Best frickin' Harry Potter song I've ever heard! It's hilarious when Hank's running around and caressing all the movie posters!

[mountainrose12]

@crazyminilili Wait, I thought that was normal to do? Huh... explains why the movie theater employee was looking at me oddly about hugging the HP 7 poster for around 5 minutes.

[YoalityYV]

I laughed so hard at 1:14

[456puff]

Who else sang along?

[456RLW]

Great song! I wonder what the people were thinking when they walked by...

[ortheus]

*cough**cough* Guthrie?

[Anna28Twilight]

Hank had always clowds at the sky in the background xD

And I love it how he loves Malfoy (>Me too! he´s evil sweet^^)

[KatsuyaJounouchi101]

This is how  I felt when I found out W.B. was holding off on showing my favorite book!!! But your right Harry is my greatest weakness!!!!

[MWPPMaruders4EVER]

Best song ever. I was so mad cause I had plans to see it then when it did come out I was busy and everyone told me what happened. Now when rich kids are showing off their money at my school for friends instead of making them in their own and caring about them I call them Malfoys after all.

[JustABitUnlikely11]

Okay,this is awesome.Now everytime someone wins pisses me off, I'll just go : "I guess you're a Malfoy afterall" and walk off.

But seriously,that was really good!

[imairborne123]

i solemly swear, this was the best jingle ive ever heard :-)

[Kingofthenargles13]

where'd you get the wand?

[blackzabbathfan]

harry potter movie releases go like this:

Mid Summer

Late Fall

This goes on every year and a half, this threw us off six months.

bastards

[devilishlypure]

@xSobhan Yeah, they can't really touch the books at all but that doesn't mean we can't get excited about them.

[xSobhan]

@devilishlypure well to me all the movies have been a major disappointment, so personally I see no reason to get excited about em

[chicksadee100]

I first saw this video when I first found Nerdfighteria, loved it and (sadly) forgot about (there was so much other stuff!). About 6 months ago i started watching 5AG and rediscovered my love for this song :)

[tenniscrazy08]

i've watched this video loads of times with the same earphones to discover today, that they are the same as hank's

[Totterfan]

Nice way to get out your stress. Not way indeed.

[opalbutterfly]

i know you can't read all the comments but the cape needs you. i like that there is a show that a nerd girl like me can watch, but they might cancel it. this could be ur first opertunity to save a tv show ( I sad that u couldn't save firefly). plz save this show. and unite nerd fighters. and if you don't like the show cool but you know that other nerds do and we need to stick together!

[ashtonkutcherfan09]

Have you Watched A Very Potter Musical?

[gelingelingx]

You have a very beautiful voice <3

[Cheeseman135792]

I'm going to sue iTunes if they don't add this song...

THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE!

(devishlypure, thats implying that you should try and get it on iTunes)

[dumbledoreisabamf]

Watching this video was possibly one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life.

[BronwynxClaire]

What makes me angry is the fact they pushed back the release date... because of Twilight.

[twilightmaniac3037mw]

Hey, this is exactly how I felt when they pushed back the mid-season premiere of Supernatural. lol

Great Song by the way

[ABBAInMyHeart]

I love this song.

[Camohat100]

michael gombon sucks as dumbledore

[zero1343]

The half blood prince just didn't feel right, I would vote it the worst of the movies. They should of started doing 2 part movies since goblet of fire in my opinion

[TheAglover26]

@zero1343 they were going the 4th movie in 2 parts but they dcicde not to.

[zero1343]

@TheAglover26

i know but they should have

[lizziemcmizzie]

LOVE this song!

[salazargryffindor]

that is the best song i ever heard

but im not a malfoy

[devilishlypure]

@salazargryffindor I didn't say you were.

[salazargryffindor]

@devilishlypure true but just saying if someone was a malfoy do you have a problem with belief in blood purity?? because even though the weasleys dont care if your pure half muggle born or muggle they are pure bloods ( and sixth cousins with the malfoys) shock never would

nice song though

[ATMA301]

@salazargryffindor: what i think she meant (please correct me if i'm wrong) is that the people at warner bros. were malfoys because warner bros. cared too much about money.

[ATMA301]

i loved the malfoys line, but malfoys actually did value family, not as much as everyone else, but they decided to go looking for draco during the battle of hogwarts

[spookman117]

to bad the movie was shit anyway

[ATMA301]

The worst part is, this goes against

What Jo has taught us all

Love means more than money

Guess you're Malfoys after all

that is so great. especially: Guess you're Malfoys after all

[vsteph100]

the music reminds me of another song but im not sure what song.

[TheWarnerSister]

@vsteph100 It reminded me a little of Hank's song "I'm Gonna Kill You".

[devilishlypure]

@Dracosgirl547 I meant that they valued money over everything else, which the Malfoys do. They changed the release date of the movie 8 months because they thought a summer release would make more money than the original fall release.

[Dracosgirl547]

@devilishlypure Oh. Sorry. I tend to be a little crazy when things turn Harry Potter. I was confused on what you meant. My deepest apologies. I feel really stupid now.

[ZeldaGurl123]

@devilishlypure there is also a pattern. ive noticed that every harry potter movie has a cycle: november, then june/july, november, june/july. I think its been going on at least since the third, but i dunno, because that was just the first one i ever saw in theaters

[blackzabbathfan]

@devilishlypure is that seriously why they pushed it back, that is the biggest dick move i have ever heard of

[HPwrocks]

THIS SONG SURROUNDS HATE AND FORCES IT TO SURRENDER.

[DarkSilverHedgehog]

Hank is such a nerd running around the movie theater like that

[blackzabbathfan]

in denial i said that i loved harry potter 6, now in after seeing harry potter 7 the day it released a month and a half ago, i realized it sucked.

[MrRockingjoe]

Howler is my COD id xD

[oneorangespider]

I just realized how iconic this video is to me.

It is responsible for my introduction to wrock, the Vlogbrothers, and the fiveawesomegirls. Dang.

Also, you and Hank make a pretty good duet.

[JustSomeGinger]

huflepuf ftw

[squidsquidx]

Whoa, where'd you get the wicked awesome wand?

[WeasleyWrock]

Is it weird to say that I liked that the movie was pushed back? I didn't finish the book by the time it was meant to come out...

[loonypants1]

Creepy Hank is creepy.

[pureridden]

You're a hufflepuff? Woo!

[BroadwayFanatic2008]

This fills me with joy.

[jchobbit]

I loved this. It is a song for anyone who anticipated something and looked forward to exciting times only to be let down. High five for this song. They should have a high five button on youtube.

[IDreamOf98]

I love the part where Hank kisses Ron. <3

But not as much as I love your Hufflepuff uniform! I'm a Hufflepuff.

[cany230]

But even the Malfoys realized that love was more important (or, at least, as important as) money, in the end. WB still doesn't know...

Anyway, I love the song! It's perpetually stuck in my head...

[wolfgirlrachie]

i love this song so much !

HUFFLEPUFF!!!

[ChelCjustis]

i've decided i'm kind of in love with this song

[AKlshulman]

Lauren your voice is amazing

[mgirl03]

So, I just started watching Fiveawesomegirls recently.

And then I found you and now I'm in love--er, with your music, I mean. I like guys. >.> BUT. Love this song, and thumbs down for all the random haterz comments that are uncalled for. I wish I could see you on tour because I WANT A HUG. I'll have to see if my mom will let me go!

[devilishlypure]

@mgirl03 Aww, yay! Thank you so much! I hope you can make it to the show! Bring your mom with you if she's concerned. Most of our shows are teen programs at libraries. :D

[Thytiny1]

@mgirl03 ...xwants hug toox

[mgirl03]

@Thytiny1 -hugs-

[Thytiny1]

@mgirl03 THANK U!

[EELClove98]

Hufflepuff!!!! <3

[Newradical78]

Lauren is Hototototototototot, to borrow a phrase from Toby Turner.

[SammieAndFriends]

If you look at the little music thingy that shows the song underneath the description it says the song name is "The Hank" by "The Greens" lolwut. Anyway love this song :3

[Hermione222]

i totally lol'd at 1:17 :)

[Lexielu102]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL I LOVE ALL THIS STUFF

[LiltedLullaby]

Ravenclaw :)

[SammiRock0]

This is so perfect.

Reading John Green.

Listening to Hank Green.

<3 Perfection <3

[ibmeh]

lol Hank is so awkward when he's touching the characters....

[Inukaino7]

"guess your Malfoys after all!" OOOOoooooo......burn

[detco3]

This video is purely epic.

It seems like everyone has gotten over that release date fiasco, but it doesnt make the song any worse :)

I can't get this song out of my head!

[TardisNoise]

I remember being so angry when they extended the wait for HBP release D:

This song symbolizes my pain

[tubbyflip]

Awesome! I loved it. 

[ryuuk96]

Where did you get the Hufflepuff uniform?

[devilishlypure]

@ryuuk96 Whimsic Alley, Alivans, and a school uniform store.

[ryuuk96]

@devilishlypure Thanks!

[KokoKringle99]

@devilishlypure did you get your wand from whimsic alley? i'm looking at getting Ginny's wand (or Gin Blossom), but i'm kindof worried because a lot of wands from other sites say how they're really fragile and not toys. on whimsic alley, though, only some of the wands say they're fragile. does that mean if they don't say it, then they're fine to use? i don't wanna get a wand if i'll end up breaking it, or if i'm afraid to touch it. so i guess i'm wondering how durable your wand is

[Mariswimmer7]

We Hufflepuffs are particulerly good finders, you know.

[OtakuAlice]

so glad to see hufflepuffs in the mainstream

[WeasleyWrock]

Hank and Ron-Oh my gosh! I was cracking up! Love the Hufflepuff outfit!

[bindobud]

I'm sorry, but if they were malfoys after all, I reckon they'd look pretty hot :P

[flipthebirkey]

@bindobud I reckon your reckoning is VERY right:)

[biblegirl]

Ur a hufflepuff! Me too

[lmlSickestKids]

Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs are the best.

[WateverWatever04]

@lmlSickestKids HUFFLEPUFF PRIDE!

[ttimeatime]

gotta love Hank :D

[cvhockey20]

I wonder what random peoples thought was when they saw hank rubbing the posters

[sarahjessica1242]

i love when hank is messing with billboards.

love him so much.

[GTFelver]

That was freaking excellent! Well done! :)

[mvpsonly500]

I love hanks nerdyness

[ColorMeOlivia]

Ewwwww she's a Hufflepuff :( RAVENCLAW FOR THE WIN!!!

[mgete]

@ColorMeOlivia

Go Hufflepuff!!!!! Squeeeee:D

[ColorMeOlivia]

@mgete Booooo Hufflepufff! Ravenclaw is the best!!!

[Regizap]

HANK GREEN OWNS ALL

[SparkleRoo]

high five for hufflepuffs!

[charizard221]

just to let every one know they pushed it back because twilight was going to come out at the same time and they didnt want to lose any views so i now boycott the twilight seiries in theaters. ill watch them once they come out but not in theaters.

[biblegirl]

@charizard221 No, Twilight moved it's date up b/c they pushed the date back. Twilight wasn't even suppose to come out until that December. Nobody knew what Twilight would be.

[BookGirl55555]

@charizard221 I'm not even watching them then. Ten percent of the money Stephanie Meyer makes goes towards banning gay marriage.

This goes against what JKR taught us as well.

[sarahjessica1242]

@BookGirl55555 are you serious?

[BookGirl55555]

@sarahjessica1242 Yup

She's a mormon right? And mormons give 10% of their salaries or something to their church which spends the money on banning gay marriage.

The line in this song that works with this? "This crap is pretty low".

[EdwardsBella137]

Odd. Here I was thinking this was a funny Harry Potter spoof, not a 'let's-show-the-world-exactly-­how-little-we-know-about-the-t­hings-we-criticize-fest.' That percentage of their salary? It's called a tithe and it was origionally a Catholic idea-now many churches do it. Also, not all mormons are against gay marriage; that is a personal decision. Don't confuse theology and politics; it only makes you look ignorant. My favoriteline? 'But now you've gone too far and earned an angry rant or two.'

[devilishlypure]

@EdwardsBella137 Whoa, my song had nothing to do with theology or politics. I was just bummed out that the release date was moved so close to when the movie was supposed to come out.

[RhotenXxX]

@devilishlypure Why are you even dignifying a person with a username "EdwardsBella137" with a comment ? I guess the other 136 EdwardsBellas were all ready taken.

[BookGirl55555]

@devilishlypure Don't worry. She/he isn't talking about your song. She's talking about a comment I made.

[TheYoubobble]

@devilishlypure edwardsbella137 just is a hp hater why God why do ppl hate harry he did no wrong

[tubbyflip]

@EdwardsBella137 were did that come from?!?

[BookGirl55555]

@EdwardsBella137 I wasn't saying she personally is against it. I was just saying the mormon church itself is against it and they spend money on banning it. She gives the church a portion of her profits, they probably spend a portion of that on the banning of gay rights.

I never said in any way that she herself has anything against gay marriage.

[jokesonuful]

@EdwardsBella137 Your just mad cuz your a twilgiht fan....

[Fireheart228]

@EdwardsBella137

Duuuuuuude.  You're so far off base.

[Sandiedog11]

okay...now i've hit a wall. do i save this to my harry potter playlist of my vlogbrothers one?
