[BackFromNowere]

Fatboy Slim aka God @ 5:30!

[kaverp66]

[TheLeviathan0123]

If I had a time machine I would go back to this moment and slap the guy that turned they're music off

[HAIILIKEMOO]

imagine if that was Ryan Gosling. Think about it.

[HAIILIKEMOO]

oh god. help me. lolaaannngngngugugnnhuhuh

[IrenaPrude]

Back in better times than these....

[cyclone927]

SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!­SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!­SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!­SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!SWAG!­SWAG!

[Stahllion]

i have to praise you, like a shoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooe.

[ConorLowes3]

AHHHHH MA GAWD, I LUFF THE DANCIN!

[LoVeElEcTrIcItY]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

[meatballhead15]

LIKE this comment in to say DOWN with VEVO (Seriously, their version cut off a minute out of this video AND gives you advertisements up the wazoo, I mean, wtf?!)

[kushasaures]

@meatballhead15 That is a complete waste of time, Vevo makes money for music corporations. Stop wasting time on things like this, when we have serious political corruption in the United States. If you want anything to change, stop the politicians from having to rely on corporate money to get into office first!

[meatballhead15]

@kushasaures Guess who rang BOTH of their state senators on SOPA/PIPA blackout day? Put their name in the Wiki Blackout petition the week prior? Guess who has supported unbrand america/buy nothing day/adbusters for 5+ years? My tiny rant was was just 1/1,000th of what I do to try my best to get things on track, including some things I can't list publicly. Know your enemy. You obviously don't, so you wasted YOUR time attacking me.

[nibblesann]

The time before camera phones

[bunnyhop28]

Such a cool tune even though it's old ha ha

Love this band they're amazing THE VINYLS!! Check them out!

[stackdatdough]

[meatballhead15]

I wonder if Improv Everywhere existed yet, and if not, if these guys were the founders?

[ninelivecat]

Amazing Choreography

[truemanc]

It was never ment to look great to the people there.... it is ment to be the whole dynamic of camera, music and the situation that is meant to appeal!

It was of its time and in 99 it was pretty cool.

[BadManRyanLol]

Biggest retard ever.

[byPick]

Haha. Ikr

\/

[skymanmagic27]

[xPleb]

[mraboveaverage]

@captainfeltcher that's spike jonze. He directed the video

[BMLofficial]

[dorkdoll]

[Mugzy619]

Every time I see the Vevo version of the video and the same video under it. I always choose the Non-Vevo version.

[UKRecordsTV]

amazing tune, those keys do it for me

[DaveLaRoxxx]

This is a funny-ass video... Love it!

[countchunkula]

@molesdude Quit spamming this video with your Bro-step nonsense.

[SupZig]

they don't make 'em like they used to :) classic video

[AUSTRIABOUND1971]

That's a classic video, funny , always fun to watch but they (the dance group) suck so bad, lol.

[xdesmo]

if youtube could exist in that year it would be a great idea to release it as a viral video instead of mtv or mainstream channels.

[rmkw4291]

Sometimes you can make a really good video without a big budget..

[Fookyu212]

such trolls :P

[captainveteran1]

I want this philosophy of life! They're loving it!

[dan35669]

how the fuck i ended up here

[WeezyLuchiK]

like if you think the guy dancin' has mental problems xD

[Yippeekia]

@WeezyLuchiK hahaha the guy dancing is Spike Jonze hes a pretty famous film director and producer....but he was also in Jackass so maybe he does have mental problems :P

[vigo894]

@Yippeekia= Putting on fake tits, and dressing up like an old woman, yes definetely has mental problems.

[Sean5eannery]

@WeezyLuchiK you have mental problems, man...

[codec98]

I love this song, but whether its a joke or not, this is really the music video? Damn...

[GiacShabadoo]

and she won't be surprised

[suggitttravis]

[snolan1990]

Every time I watch this I get hit by an absolutely huge wave of Nostalgia. Late nineties were so much better than now.... Alas.

[Krooksbane]

I don't know why but this guy and his dance group kind of piss me off. Wtf?

[chibomato78]

[bukk3t]

the lisp in the voice of the person who speaks in this video resembles fags.

[MrHaroldFM]

Fatboy Slim in the background at 5:28, awesome tune.

[Harryhoodz]

Are they listening to this track during this or is this a separate gig

[snolan1990]

@Harryhoodz Yeah they are it was made for this song.

[seductshaun]

[Bailey82abn]

WTF???

[Dagwen]

Dear Pklepack,

Watch also Rockafeller Skank. Strangely, same guy.

Anyway, you enjoyed "Praise You", and now you can enjoy it differently,

as the brilliant music of Fatboy Slim plus the brilliant stuff of

Spike Jones. I love them both, they Do Good Things

[charlesbyers]
