Jonathan, I heard this song for the first time on August 12, 2011. I revisit every time I get tired of all the crap. It is the greatest anthem of the common man ever written. It has given me the strength to muddle through the tough times. Thanks so much for perfectly wording the struggles of Slater and us all!
Great song - catchy tune and a fucking heartwarming chorus that will definitely help me survive those tough work days. :P I thank you for not being a lazy lyricist.
Watched this video for an article I'm writing. Need to give you props on the lyrics:
"There comes a point/ In every man's life/ When he's just had enough/ We do our best/ Oh to be polite/ To keep it bottled up./ But the stage is set for the rage to get out of control." Article just wrote itself. Oh, and the chorus? I think I'm in love, Jonathan. So happy that I discovered you via Steven Slater.
Well. it's fantastic. Maybe I've played this song 30 times so far this week and not everyone gets it, but I'll tell you something, not everyone gets Dylan either. It's a fine effort young man. Now stay away from those video games, they'll rot your mind.
Fuck you stupid ass Steven Slater supporters. He's a joke and a criminal, and should be in jail. And, oh by the way: your song is LAME, the lyrics suck, and you can't sing or play the guitar.
Hmmm....just found elsewhere that he's worked there since he was 19, and he's in his late 30s. So 20 years, not 28. I know, big deal, but I don't want someone who doesn't care about your music or Steven Slater attacking you on the basis of a small mistake. Just wanting to help keep your songs going, love your stuff.
Hey there, I love what you are doing, but just a small editing quibble: He didn't work for the airline for 28 years. He worked for 2 years, 8 months according to his airline profile. And really, the fella looks to be in his mid-thirties.
I would agree with you but in this case the police would have to be in on it too, which to say there would have to be a conspiracy against this man, and considering his actions, I think the police would have better things to do than run a conspiracy against this rather unimportant man.
Who knows, I don't know if there's enough story here for him to get a book or movie deal but considering it's is this easy to fool a bunch of idiots into making him a hero, he may get that deal yet
i loved your song so much that I have it on my phone and I shared in Facebook. Thank you for writing a song about the guy who had the guts to do something.

For all of the songs created and sung about Steven Slater and the incidents around his departure from Jet Blue, Jonathan Mann has really captured the poignant essence of the story.
Any person who has had to suppress the frustration and anger in the face of an impolite, incompetent or ignorant customer can relate all to well with how Steven reacted. One can only hide behind the politely veneered rage for so long.
Steven Slater should get promoted!! Cant put him back working with the public knowing he's a security risk and may snap again at any moment, however, his creativity and 'take no bs' attitude is what every company needs running their show! GO JETBLUE!! lol

Maybe you should hold your soon to be nominated Grammy song until all the facts are in. Are you aware that when Steven pulled that latch that sliding chute was like shooting off a loaded gun and that chute could have KILLED someone instantly, What is that dead person was one of your loved ones?Would you still be writing a song to Steven?
This is awesome - BrokenBjartur obviously has no taste. Your song may have the usual chords, but they're the USUAL chords because people like them. That's why they're popular. That's why they get famous. I hope you get famous (or at least internet famous) and piss all over the haters. Hey, maybe you could dedicate the chorus to them! Keep it up. You rock.
The lawyer hit the nail on the head. The lack of civility in our society is unnerving. The entitled, narcissistic, arrogant customers who think they own you because they are paying you are out of control. The polite customer is always right.... Service, civility and mutual respect are a two-way street.
Dude... Great Lyrics... We are a country about to explode... Why is there so much HATE in a country that has more than most could imagine?... Its the AMERICAN EGO that is going to destroy what once was precious... And this is the Land of the Free! REVOLUTION is upon us! And we will owe our demise to the HYPOCRITE RELIGIOUS RIGHT WING KNOW IT ALLS!!!
Dude... Great Lyrics... We are a country about to explode... Why is there so much HATE in a country that has more than most could imagine...

We are the most self centered countrys that will one day fall from its grace... as its already happening... REVOLUTION is upon us!
I worked as a mindless retail drone for four months over the summer during my college years, and this is the sort of thing I wanted to say to every single belligerent customer who dumped clothing on my sales floor and yelled at me when they couldn't find a belt large enough to fit around their enormous girth. I never had the guts to do this.... Working people have feelings too. Thank you Steven Slater for making that point for all of us.
Hey Man, great job with this song. It comes together really, really well. Thank you for sharing it. I read the negative comments and have to believe that people put other people down to make themselves feel better. If it was radio friendly, this song would be headed for heavy rotation. Keep on keeping on!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Steve Slater is pussy bitch just like this fuckwit. Too much free time on your hands dip shit. You sound like a asshole blurting out a wet fart. Go do something worthwile you faggot.
i sure wish this song had been out 10 months ago when i left an old job in a call center here in ny! I actually began to wonder what caller would get this kind of response from me!
Sorry, but Steven Slater is not a hero. With all due respect, you all are naive for believing it. According to ABC News, Steven Slater was allegedly drinking on the job and actually instigated the confrontation with the passengers. So what do you think about your "folk hero" now? Check out my channel for more commentary.
there's an amazing 'pullin' a slater' tee over at goodie two sleeves (dot) com with a portion of the proceeds going directly to steven's legal defense. you even get 15% off if you use the code SLATER! i'm so going to buy one and help my boy out!
This dude is my hero! My wife works in the public service business. She is a nurse. She puts up with verbal and sometimes physical abuse daily. Her employer does not consider the other side of the issue, the abuse inflicted upon her from doctors, patients, but mostly the family members of patients. Gotta give it to this dude for having enough, grabbing a few cold ones, and exiting in style!!!
Dude this is beyond awesome.. Fuck them haters..fuck em all. Fuck all the the people that hate your song. It was funny. And a very good performance as wel.
There were times in my nursing career that I felt like singing this song....but back in the day, if one said the " f" word. it was unacceptable. I don't normally give kudos to songs like this,but I've worked for the public..and this was how many of us felt while under job stress. Creative song,and thankfully, we live where we can say things like this..and not get kicked to the curb for doing so. It seems that Steven Slater is now a folk hero. He won't have to worry about working for jet blue.
ahh yes, after six years of them being rude to me at last its my turn...call me steven cough cough.... yeah go on then, keep my money, keep my jewellery! keep whatever makes them happy. axelle_rose... at least steven does not have to pay for his bail...lucky man...being a hero has it perks.... spend it well my friends!!!! axelle_rose
Steven Slater is a true HERO! He beat the f*cking system. Some will say: "That's not the way it's done." But hey, at least he can go home with peace of mind unlike millions workers who die of stress and strokes by being abused at work. You will die anyways. People like Steven will go glorious and many years from now. The rest of us will have a heart attack anytime now till we wait for payment...
you are not talented. Kill yourself, or get.... no jut kill yourself. This is so fucking gay, although Steven Slater is cool. But novelty comedy songs like this are fucking worthless.
pretty funny......all you haters on here lighten up. I think its funny how you haters are analyzing the chord progression of this obvious light hearted song about a current event.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is retarded. I f**king hate these kind of things. People try to use music in a humorous way and ABSOLUTELY DISREGARD it's musical values. This has the same usual f**king chords and rhythm as every f**king other song.
@therockcookiebottom i'm curious as to why you would take the time to respond to this guy's douche-bag remark but yet to the thousands of folks that send you praise and encouragement, you say nothing - not even a thank you... seems bass ackwards to me.
@BearMate You know, that's a really good point. I guess it's because those negative ones, especially ones as stupid as the one above, stick out! I do really appreciate all the support though. It's really the people that watch me everyday that keep me going.
@therockcookiebottom i understand completely. when i was making vids, the negative comments would really hurt. i was raised to say nothing at all if you can't say something nice... having said that, let me say that i love your work and watch you every day. i am just one of thousands of your watchers that really appreciate what you do and wish you the best for the future.
people are allowed to pick there heroes. musical value is a relative term. i doubt beethoven (or bob dylan) will write an ode to steven slater. let's not get too serious about this and please don't tell me to fuck off. but if you must i will begrudgingly respect your honesty.
As relative a term it is, it doesn't stop people from using the same old chords and the same old rhythm. It's pathetic, and I feel like music is the whore of the century, where no respect at all is given to it.
It is such a humiliating experience to fly...we should all stand up and refuse to strip or be x-rayed be the TSA. Fuck them all...including the shoe bomber and whomever mentioned using drinks as weapons but more so the assholes who created these rules for all good citizens just because of a couple of idiots.
I don't think genius is too much of an accolade here. Fantastic song, funny, and direct. I'm not sure Steven is a hero, but his exit is infinitely better that shooting a bunch of people. I hope this becomes the new copycat way to 'get back' at the people at work. Thank you for this!
Jonathan, I heard this song for the first time on August 12, 2011. I revisit every time I get tired of all the crap. It is the greatest anthem of the common man ever written.

Hi, I guess you must feel pretty stupid now huh?
You are serenading this 'Folk Hero", which is fine and good, but you didn't wait for the other side of the story..
The passengers and police say that:
- His "injury" to hid head was when he got there
- He was rude and short-tempered the ENTIRE flight
- No one hit him with anything
- AND to top that sundae, he was 'swaying on his feet and smelled strongly of alcohol'
OUCH!

There were times in my nursing career that I felt like singing this song....but back in the day, if one said the " f" word. it was unacceptable. I don't normally give kudos to songs like this,but I've worked for the public..and this was how many of us felt while under job stress. Creative song,and thankfully, we live where we can say things like this..and not get kicked to the curb for doing so. It seems that Steven Slater is now a folk hero. He won't have to worry about working for jet blue.

Steven Slater is a true HERO! He beat the f*cking system. Some will say: "That's not the way it's done." But hey, at least he can go home with peace of mind unlike millions workers who die of stress and strokes by being abused at work. You will die anyways. People like Steven will go glorious and many years from now. The rest of us will have a heart attack anytime now till we wait for payment...

you are not talented. Kill yourself, or get.... no jut kill yourself. This is so fucking gay, although Steven Slater is cool. But novelty comedy songs like this are fucking worthless.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
This is retarded. I f**king hate these kind of things. People try to use music in a humorous way and ABSOLUTELY DISREGARD it's musical values. This has the same usual f**king chords and rhythm as every f**king other song.
Be creative beyond the f**king lyrics.

@therockcookiebottom i'm curious as to why you would take the time to respond to this guy's douche-bag remark but yet to the thousands of folks that send you praise and encouragement, you say nothing - not even a thank you... seems bass ackwards to me.

@BearMate You know, that's a really good point. I guess it's because those negative ones, especially ones as stupid as the one above, stick out! I do really appreciate all the support though. It's really the people that watch me everyday that keep me going.

@therockcookiebottom i understand completely. when i was making vids, the negative comments would really hurt. i was raised to say nothing at all if you can't say something nice... having said that, let me say that i love your work and watch you every day. i am just one of thousands of your watchers that really appreciate what you do and wish you the best for the future.

people are allowed to pick there heroes. musical value is a relative term. i doubt beethoven (or bob dylan) will write an ode to steven slater. let's not get too serious about this and please don't tell me to fuck off. but if you must i will begrudgingly respect your honesty.

As relative a term it is, it doesn't stop people from using the same old chords and the same old rhythm. It's pathetic, and I feel like music is the whore of the century, where no respect at all is given to it.
BrokenBjartur 1 year ago
@BrokenBjartur And what music have you written? Yeah, that's what I thought.
It's comedy anyway, not serious music.

It is such a humiliating experience to fly...we should all stand up and refuse to strip or be x-rayed be the TSA. Fuck them all...including the shoe bomber and whomever mentioned using drinks as weapons but more so the assholes who created these rules for all good citizens just because of a couple of idiots.

I don't think genius is too much of an accolade here. Fantastic song, funny, and direct. I'm not sure Steven is a hero, but his exit is infinitely better that shooting a bunch of people. I hope this becomes the new copycat way to 'get back' at the people at work. Thank you for this!
