Squirrel Nut Zippers - "Hell" - Hard Rock Live

[PrincessPanFry]

I love how his voice sounds at least as good live, if not better, than on the album.

[madalineish]

Love this version, too bad the sound quaility SUCKS!

[gutts077]

Wow! His voice completely suits this style of music!

[nomadmalachi]

I doff my hat to subby for this one... NICE FIND!!

[wlchambers]

@nomadmalachi you doff your hat? lol

[nomadmalachi]

@wlchambers Not only that, I jitterbug!

[SarahRomero3410]

I had a dream after my sister's death when I was in mourning, and it probably was more than just a dream. There was a horrible man in the dream who was chasing and scaring little children, but as he was a spirit, he was also not whole, but in parts. I think the song hell is describing something someone saw in a "dream" only you know it's real, and it happens when you die.

[Nothingface2011]

That liitle goofy bastard with the morocco's just kills the whole mood of the song!!

[liennosnikcid]

@Nothingface2011 I thought the opposite, his goofiness helped make the show.

[windowsforvista]

@MrAlex899 If you figure out reply to my comment, I wana hear this

[lollipopfop]

@windowsforvista This is the original and ONLY version of this song. There has never been another version. thats why you will never find it.

[windowsforvista]

@lollipopfop You never know

[otakuploader]

@lollipopfop Uh... not including covers? 'Cus this song has been covered a few times to my knowledge. Otherwise.. you'd be right.

[TechFXpunk]

Streetlight Manifesto brought me here! :D

[abaddatom]

awsomesauce

[NicteBlack]

wow quite a beautifull music so porwerfull

[StraitjacketAirsoft]

OMG! THEY SAID HELL! and...and...and... they said something about religion. LETS START A FUCKING RIOT

[drletal]

Muchas gracias por subir este video, i never see this band in live awesome music

[badm]

I want to be the guy with the maracas.

[drnapls2]

I love how they used this song the the show 'Dead Like Me'.

[gocanadayayyy]

i just remember hearing this band at a restaurant and putting a note in my phone to look them up because whatever was playing at the restaurant was REALLY BAD, like we had to ask them what music they were playing and they were like "it's really bad, we know." lol.

[jaredvw23]

Sinning is natural...and sinning is human. Come on, if you dont sin then Jesus died for nothing right? If we don't sin, Jesus would be on Unemployment. Seriously, ..WHO CARES about what you believe in? Its for you and only you. To each their own. Arguing religion is like rape...you cant force it. Get over yourself and your morals. NO ONES PERFECT, ..no one.

[MrCowboyJesus]

@jaredvw23 Gregori Rasputin, who was a member of an Old Believer Sect and quite probibly a Gnostic was a beliver in the prinicple that to be saved one must know sin first so that they can then know virtue. In a sense this is in line with the Taoist traditional of Yin and Yang. It is interesing to note that many eastern religions do not have Hell in the same sense as the Semetic faiths which became the basis for Christianity, Islam and Judism. This is not to say that the eastern faiths(continued)

[MrCowboyJesus]

@jaredvw23

(Continued) reward virtue. In fact the concept of Dharma, originally a Hindu concept was spread by the Buddhists. This states that individuals are reborn. "Sin" (not necessarily in the Hebrew sense) is really considered doing harm to others as well as one's self. But to Dharmic faiths, it is more about keeping ballance in one's life.

[MericusHtwtchka]

I have a friend back in Michigan that recorded a far better version of this song. However now I have a different friend that is an ex-stage singer; now doing karaoke. I might like to do this song pretty much exactly like this video:).

[beatlesatshea]

"Make the scene all day" and "suit of flame." Love it.

[thincow12]

does he sing upscale and brains or is it job skills and brains?

[wood6735]

Liking the banjo action.

[madalineish]

this is a great version of this song. Too bad the sound quality suckkkkksssss.



[dr3wb1xcub3]

@ heeden and apparently god never gave you a spell check either it's "they're" not "there" idiot. If you're gonna spew idiotic nonsense please at least do it in such a way that makes you look even more pathetic

[Mazer2721]

Although I love Streetlight Manifesto, they can't do this song justice.

[fallintotheabyss]

Teeth are extruded and bones are ground and baked into cakes which are passed around... coolest lyric ever

[acprandina1993]

Squirrel nut zippers forever ♥

[geminirat60]

so what happened to the sound?

[TheLyd5]

Katherine can really belt it out!!

[tom79g]

what ever happened with the guy singing this song, ive noticed he's not with them anymore?

[Gunther360]

HA HA HA!!!! the d and m and the n.... you know the rest

[napowansnare1]

I'm bummed that it cuts out at Flight of the Passing Fancy.

[jipidibipity]

Yet another phenom in music that the masses use once and throw over the shoulders. Dance (blank)! I said DANCE!

[bongod]

god in human form, you're scaring me man.

[tsherrodjr]

Cant find the original video...WTF???

[Mazer2721]

I miss them so much.

[LeVintagegurl]

It's the D and the A and the M and the N and the A and the T and the I-O-N!!! Loose your face, loose your name and get fitted for a suite of FLAAAAMMMME!!!!!! I HEART SNZ BABY YEAAAAAH!!!!

[dragonhunterkanna]

Oh, Goddess, you do not KNOW how much this reminds me of that one scene in the Mask!

[Danniela5]

Oh man! this is a kicking ass band! they're awesome, really good quality music

[Rckfir9]

sorry if you like this band but i gotta like streetlight's version better

[thegrief13]

@Rckfir9 i like this band but i agree they do a good version as well, i have both on my ipod :)

[Mendez8006]

i just don't enjoy the banjo playing otherwise this is one of my favorite bands

[StraightTwoDVD]

this is why wasps should not play music...they are better and becoming elected officials and running this country into the ground...

[JimHolland8]

@StraightTwoDVD All politicians fuck shit up even half black ones.

[Ironman935]

why the hell are people debating religion on this video!? im religous but that doesnt stop me from thinking this music kicks ass!

[otakuploader]

@ZibRocker Because losers have to make their opinion known.. sad, ain't it?

[alitlweird]

all you need is love. imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try.

[andreabrauer]

Just love it

[HereticSeraphim]

Ha ha, idiots discussing religion in Youtube comments.

[HedeenJeff]

@HereticSeraphim actually there not the ones that are the idiots (I hope) I used to be an Idiot, then GOD gave me his word (hopefully im not anymore). God raised Jesus Christ from the dead to justify us by faith. He is the son of GOD and GOD himself. Ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and make you his child. and have a chance at heaven.

[HereticSeraphim]

@HedeenJeff

I posted that 8 months ago, are you really that emotionally invested in Youtube comments or something?

[gonzopoet00]

@HedeenJeff god touched where you pee from. don't take it out on us, jackass. oh and for the record, the bible is full of mistranslations and contradictions to HIS logic. you got mentally molested by an ancient outdated fairy tale. there is hope for people like you, it is called psychotherapy. it's called logic and reason oh and intellect can help. the more you knooooow!

[HedeenJeff]

@gonzopoet00 All the Wordly Logic and reason reason you can get wont save you.

[gonzopoet00]

@HedeenJeff that's right it won't. but following my heart and my moral structure based on my experiences and doing the smart thing will. i didn't need some ancient MISTRANSLATED book to teach me common sense you dolt. that is is some idiot bible bumper decides to murder me for HIS god. religion is the negation of thought. as politics is the negation of will. i live by MY truths. you can't scare me with your lies. the bible was MISTRANSLATED. truth outlives stupidity.

[gonzopoet00]

@gonzopoet00 and another thing, what is more pathetic, pointing out flaws or not having a sufficient educated argument proving your so-called bible right? the dead sea scrolls were changed by corrupt men to suit the needs of their people. the facts were changed to suit the needs of the area in which it was distributed. common sense, retard. people are inherently corrupt. they use "sin" for personal gain. you have too much faith in false prophets and less faith in discovering real truth.

[HedeenJeff]

@gonzopoet00 Theres a way that seems right to a man but the end is destruction.

[greendayfan234]

my mind is made up. that singer is satan incarnate! i mean just listen to how evil, seductive and bad ass that voice is

[PleasedToMeetYou666]

@ the0world0sucks

Yooouuuu ...my friend ...you will burn in hell HAHAHA. You not a christian oh no Sir!!! you´re a HATER you´re more like Hitler or Bush. Do you really thing or belive that jesus hate people. That GOD hate his creation. Your name said all "the world sucks" ...but you WILL see it later  HAHAHA YES,SIR YOUR GOD WILL JUDGE YOU ...see you in HELL my poor hater friend

[dieselscience]

@PleasedToMeetYou666 No, he's more like Obama.

[DeepEye1994]

@PleasedToMeetYou666 Fuck you, Ned Flanders

[yocorrocontrajeras]

I hate self righteous religious people. Get over your little personal issues and struggles with your faith and just enjoy the music!

[garysremodel]

The world sucks. And you suck right along with it, you fucking holy rollin" retard!

[Cthulhuapo]

What the Hell are you guys commenting about? There's no word about religion here, just listen to the music!

[facelessaphrodisiac]

Oh yea, what about a cross joint?

[facelessaphrodisiac]

@slarmas

I agree, religion (in my opinion) is one of the leading causes of conflict. I'm not trying to be a hippie or anything but if all these religious people would stop forcing their ideals over top of other people's beliefs we wouldn't be dealing with nearly as much conflict. Just look at the war on terror, jihad? Hello?

[keikothemeowmeow]

@facelessaphrodisiac I think more importantly, people would develop their own reasons for being good people. A good person with the threat of hell is about as loving and devoted as a shotgun wedding's groom.

[the0world0sucks]

Your goodness will never measure up to God's standards. That's why a offering of perfection had to be given. Refuse that offering, Jesus, then there is no hope for you.

[keikothemeowmeow]

@the0world0sucks The goodness of an imaginary person in the sky will never measure up to the genuine will to do good in an Atheist.That's why we offer so much information to guide people who have foolishly gone astray(such as yourself) and chosen the path of lala land instead.If you refuse our offerings of knowledge, there is no hope for you.You're lost to pretend land :/ You must be from the South.FYI rest of the world calls you rednecks.Guess why?

[BadAssMuthaFuka451]

Isn't your name questioning gods creation? The world sucks because if there is a god, he hates us, get over it. I feel sorry that you have to experience the world through such a pathetic perspective, go look up a different youtube video about hell and spill your worthless rants there and pretend you are superior to everone else.

[the0world0sucks]

Good song. Reminds people what is waiting should they toy around with the Cross.

[slarmas]

The Cross is a piece of wood. It should be burned to stay warm, or possibly made into paper. There is no God or Jesus, f*ck man enjoy the song because it is good not because of some religious dogma bs.

[keikothemeowmeow]

@the0world0sucks Hmm...That's funny.I thought this song was satirical and making fun of people exactly like you :/

[the0world0sucks]

Prejudice is wrong...except when it's against Christians?

Whether they meant it for good or for bad, it remains a witness that hell is waiting. If you choose to deny it, deny it.

[BadAssMuthaFuka451]

We kinda already toyed around with it and hung your prescious jesus on it :/

[GeronimoTA]

@the0world0sucks using your religion to threaten me you talking head. It's pathetic that the closest you get to talking to someone in person is by praying to an imaginary one.

[yocorrocontrajeras]

scriptures were written by man.

[yocorrocontrajeras]

is that really the attitude loving christians are supposed to have?or are you just a bitter one?Isn't Christianity supposed to be based on hope and faith not threats and damnation?Get your religion right buddy

[the0world0sucks]

Yes, that is the right attitude to have. Remember, it is the Loving God that made hell and it's the Loving God that will send you there. Sum: since God is love and he is willing to send people there... those people must be truly worthless.

[yocorrocontrajeras]

Well if that's the God you believe he's an asshole.

[Kakkarot22]

He is not only loving, but Just and Justice states that he must send all those who disobey him without repenting to a great punishment

[gamer2021]

eugh, read Epicurus. seriously.

[Godsmack0Believe]

@Kakkarot22 So much for free will in "religion"

[Godsmack0Believe]

@the0world0sucks Lol, explain why EVERY single religious story is the same, dead for 3 days resurections 12 disciples, 12 brothers etc. born on 25th, of virgin mary.

AND WHY do the Eygyptions have the story of a horus which is the EXACT same as the story as Jesus, 1000S of years before the "birth" of christ

[fergieska]

actually this song is satire. If you read the lyrics that becomes glaringly obvious.

[fergieska]

@the0world0sucks

You of course mean the logical?

Cthulu awaits you anyway.

[tehdaza]

lol

[logansGT]

Gee, thanks. I really enjoyed those F' ING CREDITS FOR HALF THE VIDEO!!!

[ohaRega]

lol i love when he says FIRE IS APPLIED TO THE BODDDEH

[Sync748]

[katich5]

[TheStormbringer]

Es el 11 en Metropol,

Mierda, lastima no vivir en Bogotá

Jamás pensé que vinieran por aca

[katich5]

Pero es el 12 en Medellin en el Jardin Botanico.

[TheStormbringer]

Que te lo goces, si podes grabate algo pa que lo subas por aca!

[muser1000]

[tompaah7503]

Only one day left now :)

[zacker001]

great vid... but what the hell was the guy in the glasses doing in the back ground while the singer was on the floor screaming? lol was he doig "The Funky Scarecrow"? lol

[jcantorv]

What the fucking damn good screaml!!!!!!

[neo23dco60]

fix the volume dear

[estodo124]

Tom Maxwell has his own band now, Jimbo does to, katharine went solo and the trumpet player has his band called the "firecracker jazz band" but they all get together for their shows and stuff. hopefully they make a new CD I've been waiting for years!!!

[RocknRage]

they are coming out with a new album according to wikipedia. i think thats where i heard it

[estodo124]

do you know when? where can i get this information? cuz you know i'm buying it!!

[HisshoNellMorte]

The band Streetlight Manifesto is putting the first of a series of cover CD's out soon-ish, and this is a confirmed song on the first CD

[MaySugMoki]

1:09 LOOKS LIKE DITA VON TEESE

[deathissoswift]

She does, both women are beautiful :)

[Culito213]

Tom Maxwell cracks me up...too bad he's not in the band anymore! Wonder what he's doing...?

[PerishBrave]

tell me this is actually a parody of the consequences of hell...cuz otherwise, its very ironic i love this song so much XD

[HeroinForever]

think of the worst thing imaginable.... happening to you. Forever.

I love the idea of Hell. You're in Hell. It gets worse... much, MUCH worse.

When you die, hopefully, you'll die horribly. This life is only stop number 1 on the descent to Hell.

This life = psychological pain. When you die = Physical pain.

Death = Pain = HELL

hahahahahaha

[tonydamiano888]

I'm going to see them tomorrow(071109)

[ChillpointNews]

Dang, I envy you. :(

[theirishinc]

Envy will get you to hell.

[froggpond1]

LOL!!~!

[ChillpointNews]

These guys are NUTS! This is AWESOME.

[neo23dco60]

the other side dear

[olabashanda]

"people listen attentively

I mean about future calamity...

teeth are extruded and bones are ground

and made into cakes which are passed around...

all the things that you try to hide will be revealed on the other side...

D and the A and the M and the N and the A and the T and the I-O-N

lose your face, lose your name, then get fitted for a suit of flaaaaaaammmmmeeee

you get what you pay for"

so true

don't forget it, listen attentively

[KTUF]

It's a fun song... ooooo.... let's get all scared....

good luck!

[bilwit]

Chilling performance, better than the studio version too!

Maxwell has a BEASTLY growl.

[elchicodeldepto512]

awsome the way he yells hehehehe he rocks!!!

[ammo1231]

pretty stupid, why bother to post this video - there's no audio. who' s the moron that put this up?

[agwellin]

lol, sounds like someone didn't notice he still had his headphones plugged in after taking them off...

Audio's fine.

[kimoppi]

What the poo ever happened to these guys?

And I love the banjo player's kicks.

[qwalts12342]

Broke up in 2000 and recently got back together.

[neo23dco60]

whats it with the sound?

[mouseclick92]

Ah... Reminds me of the funeral scene in the pilot of Dead Like Me^^,

[iheartreverb10]

love it

[northcountrydylan]

where is the actual video for this song? how could it not be on youtube??

[fetisov02]

the video sucked, no need to see it.

[TonyTuthill]

OMG all the good videos of this are gone! arg all &*^% ones now! ARG!

[carrillowu2006]

I would love to see them play next to Madness... that would be a hell of a concert!!

[SuperTex1966]

Worth every penny.

Put a lid on it.

[neo23dco60]

volume problems hey? And where is the orginal video it was so fine............

[jedijenkeez45]

they were the best of those neo-swing bands... when did they they break up??? they were great!!!!

[Moeabm]

i just saw them the other day...they were amazing

[zapponsalvia]

nice fucking audio

[derley7773]

i've listened this song for the first time in series dead like me...love it

[RdSoxFan618]

Innnnnnn the afterlife!

I like Streetlight Manifesto's more, but major props to the Squirrel Nut Zippers for writing this song, and thus allowing Streetlight Manifesto to perfect it.

[omgskasweet]

its ok, ignore the thumbs down, im with ya broski

99sor ftw!!!

[RdSoxFan618]

I really hope it's on 99SOR, but I don't think it will be. Only song that I know 110% is going to be on 99SOR (I think the first Streetlight album) is Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard by Paul Simon.

[waynec38]

too bad the idiots made youtube take down the ACTUAL VID FOR THIS!IT WAS GREAT! and boy,was tom a caracter,lol

[ManInRevolt]

Great video,but sound is way too quiet.

[kenzeliano]

awesome!

[bigchickenfu]

Titties then !

[neo23dco60]

very sweet....neo

[saxmanmax]

YOU GET WHATCHA PAY FOOOOO

[JimmyBrus]

was he making out with the mic? seriously man, turn up the volume don't make a fool of yourself, too good for that.

[DecibelFX]

sounds good, but I didn't care for how the sax player improvised the solos... much different than the album

[VinBad007]

Decibel, are you kidding me? Listen to your CD, it's almost identical. Every live performance will vary a little bit from the studio version, but the sax solo is almost dead on.

[thc1410]

Excelentes!!!

[passispass321]

this is back when vhi and other music shows were ACUTALY ABOUT REALL MUSIC!! not like the crap they have now.

[hanfordbombshell]

NOBODY on Earth screams with more heart, soul, and general goofiness laced with a heapin' helpin' of sincere oddity than Tom Maxwell.. he's amazing!

[pigpen66]

I'm with you.

[agentx42]

Special thanks to VH1 for running credits over the band for the final minute. Assholes. At least this was a time when they actually showed something other than "Do You Remember Twenty Miutes Ago"

[shuckslbj]

aaaaaaahahahahaha that was genius

[tygersflowerz]

It would be perfect if only the sound weren't sh**.

[tygersflowerz]

I think every high school pep band in the country should learn this. :)

[carapo66]

Old - time calypso music. Not bad for a USA group

[weaselsqeezins]

Calypso?!? It's called Swing.

[steve51704000]

It's a swing band playing a calypso tune, genius. Learn it.
