[katarinagiselle]

I really like your cover of Sex and Candy! I'd like it if you could give me your opinion on mine. It's next to my website on my page (soundcloud..no video..I'm an amature!) Thanks for taking the time in advance!! =) Keep shining

[TheEsaful]

Their best song imo

[jmd073]

Awesome

[JarusPL2011]

Hes kinda lip singing this but its a good song.

[AcousticHustler]

@JarusPL2011 It's called lip syncing, and he's not.

[flipiiigrl]

@JarusPL2011 He's singing, the echo from the mic is probably making it sound like that

[38sydsdad]

...there she was... like disco superfly...love that shit man!!!!

[MegaSmartass101]

I swear the guy on the bongos looks stoned...awesome song though :)

[riddlegod5]

Love even the sound! Could another track crash harder? Unbelievably powerful.

[dave1927p]

one hit wonders

[MrBigdaddyb2]

I just learned this badass song on guitar it's awesome

[Berserker9570]

[RafMaxwell]

This guy looks epitomically british

[SilverFoxBUB]

Apparently 6 peolple have never had sex or candy

[loveDANCErawrDANCE]

6 people don't have chairs to lounge in.

[123456grl]

The JuggalosRUs version "Weed & Faygo" is so much better Whoop whoop <3

[1000MilesCantStopUs]

@123456grl Get out of my house. FAIL.

[portaltoken]

[pnolanrn]

Who's that casting devious stares at my erection?

[killface521]

[MySuperPlaylist1]

[Mareann52]

[laurenallen917]

[38sydsdad]

@sipentiumde LMAO DUDE! I am high as a Georgia pine, and I can't stop laughing! You Are so right.

[GodsentHellraiser]

@sipentiumde Why wouldn't there be?

[MadDogg8121]

@sipentiumde hahaha, this comment made me laugh. The drums sound off or something. I don't know. Maybe he should have just used his hands instead of the feather dusters.

[JustWatching6]

I like that he sounds as good acoustically as he does in the studio recording. :)

[villavonatja11]

3 people need sex and candy!

[Schutzstafell]

@villavonatja11 Original. Shoot yourself.

[XWHITEoKNIGHTX19]

90s ftw

[ambis99]

I love this song especially how mellow it is!

[catseatingclouds]

i bet he's not as good at singing with a reverse bear trap in his mouth..

[queefachoo]

that drummer should go fuck himself. and hey brown637, you're gay... like the drummer

[ChantalleRielly718]

DL the audio from this vid at speedyconversion doht cohm.

[booblies]

Hella Fuckin' Good Song!!

[sixtrings84]

sounds better than the original music video.

[spinvestigator]

Wozniak has still got it, even though the years have turned him into Smeagol. In ten more years, he'll be trying to kill Hobbittses for his Preciousssss.

[rudemarc87]

bad ass shit you guys taught a generation how to rock fuck all the new shit.

[bakerboard5]

Good song

[snowguy54]

I remember this song being so "bleehhhhhh" that it was great!

[Munsterette]

This guy has a really good voice it`s very raw

[joeymetts13]

Fluffy drumsticks FTW!

[RileyHysjulien]

@joeymetts13 acually there wire stick they keep it from getting 2 loud

[TheBrokenWing1]

@joeymetts13 sex and candy FTW

[CommanderSpooky]

@joeymetts13 (they're called 'rakes' FTW! ;)

[greatsamuraj]

@joeymetts13 actually, he is just wiping them clean for the show afterwards.

[YeahItsMannie]

Despair in its purest form.

[gimbob38]

2 people are VERY gay...god i miss the 90's

[brown637]

@gimbob38 i love this song too, but seriously dude I know they shouldn't be on a video that they don't like, but don't call them gay because that offends some people. I'm not personally gay but my sister is and that offends me.

[Slaje099]

@EvaNTayloR595 how true man, how true

[ParkourPunk9]

Okay.. who of you is the one idiot, who disliked this, huh?

Nice song, chilled version! 5*

[dvlsgod]

Was searching for the vid, found this.-----very nice!

[HoneysGirl18]

I ABSOLUTLEY LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!! IT'S A GREAT SONG!!!! LOVE IT!!!!

[Volkswagenguru62]

I don't know about you guys but the singer/ guitarist looked pretty pissed off at the drummer.

[sk8erfreq66]

o haha and smoke too :D

[sk8erfreq66]

ahhhh the grunge days. I miss this. Even though i was only kid. The 90s was a great time to grow up. This music was perfect to jam, relax, drink to, and fuck to. Haha this was great. Man what happened to music...

[Ktallica]

@EvaNTayloR595 Totally agreeable.

[MsMarieIsHellaG]

DISCO LEMONADE !!! idk what it is but i want some.

[Mellsbob]

@MsMarieIsHellaG haha i know! me too. lol

[crazylucky17]

damn i love this song

[DrPoon]

Eh, they weren't the best song writers but this song was amazing, not to mention his voice was friggin awesome.

[hawaiianguy98]

love the song. great deep tone in his voice but the video could do without the gay stare at the end of the song. i'm just saying.....

[rocknroller1986]

Wow their great acoustic! I wonder if they'll make another comeback? I'd buy Marcy Playgrounds stuff anyday before i'd buy anything from most Musicians now a days!

[offdutyjie]

Mad SKILLS!

[Emptyacemountain]

Clean!

[Jasonzxzx]

wow i still have hope they hit it big somehow they deserve it:)

[Ktallica]

@Jasonzxzx They did hit it big in the nineteen nineties with the album this song is on, It is Platinum certified. But they do deserve more credit cause they are great.

[Jasonzxzx]

@Ktallica Yeahyou mean big in what sense? I mean they are big but if you ask kids nowadays who they are they wont know. Ask a kid who Pearl Jam and Nirvana and 3 doors down is all they'll know them. To me this band is very underrated.

[Ktallica]

@Jasonzxzx There is a lot of bands that were big in the 90's that kids wouldn't know now. I agree they are underrated but they did hit it big with this album and song.

[pinkberryfleur]

"should be i smell sex and hard candy" haha

[mzparriz]

Love this song

[BatmanAndCautionman]

amazing.

[ichigopeach]

Forget the candy, I just want sex, isn't that candy enough?x3

[gorbonzo28]

[jihadpizza]

[peterpanpatrick]

Heyy. I did a pretty good cover on my acoutic guitar! check ch check it out!!!

[PrincessStefanie1]

I thought the original version was acoustic.

[starkishamcgowan]

Classic.. Love it!!

[travisxgreggxajax]

This is one of my favorite songs to play and sing...basically because it's easy enough for me to do a decent job. He plays the long version of the chords in standard E-tuning, but I always drop D. It's just easier that way. Very good version. The thing I like about this song is that you don't have to play it perfect for it to sound great.

[1800scitzo]

who's that casten devious stares in my direction

[6buttbutt9]

love it love it love it :) love this song love this version :)

[LimpinPushA123]

HAHAHA he kinda looks like Quagmire in a way XD but damn good version of this song!

[menox86]

HAHAHAHAHAHA IT'S Quagmire!!!

[menox86]

You're absolutely right!! IT'S Quagmire hahahaha!!

[ilikenumbers123]

[RoderickBePulling]

[kittenDecember]

[swordfishtrombone82]

[tenac1000]

[Mwilson468]

[thefnshit]

[lortiz84]

[satyrosjay]

[themidnitetoker82]

[isalaci]

Hanging round, downtown by myself And i had so much time to sit and think about myself And then there she was, I smell sex and candy here Whose that lounging in my chair? Whose that casting devious stares in my direction? Mamma this surly is a dream .i had too much caffine and i was thinking bout myself and there she was, In platform double suade Yeah there she was, I smell sex and candy here..........

[mushroomlounge]

[RobbyLesterMusic]

This song is a classic!

[maxzsro]

[shelby921]

this is such a sexy song!!

[273jat273]

pure sex

[Mariekesone]

Sexy:-)

[ColorsBright]

Is it just me ... or do all these acoustic versions just blow away the album version. I really like the woodstock 99 version. I am still looking for the acoustic version where he SCREAMS out the last lines of the song. I STILL CANT FIND IT and its been like 5 years now :o(

[bellesandwhistles]

I'm diggin' the bongos.

[rocastar]

hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooooooo myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooddddddd

What´s happens whith the singer?????????????

[justfine77777]

What chords are those? F#, G, B?  Then an A and D?

[PongoPower]

Yep, nice eye. :D

[stevenashfan11]

completely agreed

[bigduki]

dont get me wrong. nirvana is good, but if nirvana had done this song, i would........... be sad

[kelseaDUH]

i would to i love marcy playground and how they sing it

[Sumen91]

you confuse me

[mcg616]

if nirvana sang this song it would be 100 times better

[bballgirl581]

agreed

[kelseaDUH]

you are so right this would be so awesome

[JimmyDiggs87]

i'm sure it would have been interesting, but i couldn't imagine ANYBODY doing better than marcy playground... except maybe Chuck Norris... MAYBE!!!

[busabunimalfredo]

Hey man! You're talking about Chuck! Watch out!

[bearemysmom]

This is a great song to play while you're fooling around w/ someone.

[JimmyDiggs87]

heck, it's a good song to play while you're fooling around with yourself, lol

[donkekis]

haha!

[Theeightmilebend]

The drummer is playing the bongos with feather dusters !! Very Cool

[MpowerdAPE]

the anthem of any man with a girlfriend who cheats and doesnt try to hide it.

[ColorsBright]

Does anyone know where I can get the acoustic version of this song where he screams the last couple of lines? THAT VERSION IS AMAZING and till this day I still can not find it :o(

[Haraxys]

I love his voice ... awesome ...

[mostlyopenminded]

I love how focused the guy on the bongos/tambourine is.

[6FreakOn6ALeash6]

Nostalgic 90's moments come back when i hear this song.

This is amazing!!!!

[bitcheater13]

classic!

[amyjeffM]

This is really cool! I love it! Tx for posting! :)

[deathforavengeance]

great great great song!

[maniacjak1129]

Worlds most underrated band...

[poshi12]

@maniacjak1129

Too right!

[gorbonzo28]

@maniacjak1129 if you classify under rated as what you like but not loved by all then yes definitely. if you classify under rated by talented as musicians but not loved by all then really far from. they are talented and they are under rated and they are good musicians. but to be close to the worlds most under rated band is just ridiculous as far as talent goes. if it is in your own opinion than that is completely respectable though.

[maniacjak1129]

@gorbonzo28 Wow, you're boring.

[bultaco111]

@gorbonzo28 You said it perfectly..This "song" is crap actually.. as far as brilliant songwriting goes. the original studio version sounds like an unfinished demo.

"worlds most underrated band" !! what a fucking joke! I thought Blue Oyster Cult was the worlds most underrated band! now THAT is a band that is SUPER world class talented.. this band just got lucky with their unfinished demo.. had a great manager/publicist.

[kiewefrog]

@gorbonzo28 Its called a hyperbole bro ;) and bultaco everyone has their own opinions about music but if you feel like something is shit and need to tell the world, just keep it to yourself. No one wants to hear it.

[joshyboy152]

This guy would have made so much for this song.

[revoltegirl]

i luv this song yes

[david198410]

One great CD then not much.What happened?

[woz22]

they made 3 great albums including the one that just came out July 7th. You dont know what your missing!

[borzica]

woz you joker come to Toronto dude

[wwgt]

dude,,go immediately and get " SHAPESHIFTER",,the cd after

sex and candy ..its one of the ten best cd's of all time in musical history ..I promise you

Woz is really great , and not his fault the radio is fickle and stupid.

[rmingo]

Brilliant! I'd love to have someone write me the chords to this ... I've got to learn this acoustic version! .... Any help? .... Anyone?

[kanda444]

you still need the chords to this song?
