[theCobrapanther]

SO GOOD! been listening to BNL since i was like 4 and still love it.

[jpcolts]

[nancynishihira]

One of my favorite songs EVER, Ed is amazing.

[scottderwick]

Saw you perform this live a couple of weeks ago and we met before the cmac concert. I love this song.... Keep on rockin!

[babybear4111]

Good song dude keep on rockin

[thehighesthippie]

I still want to learn this version of the song, tabs anyone??

[thehighesthippie]

Ed I don't know if you really read these, but I'm and going to comment everytime I watch this untill you with post a lesson for this song or put out a proper unplugged tab, I've spend at least four hours watching this trying to watch your hands but I'm still missing filler notes. And I feel that they are important. Thanks. Big fan.

P.s. Are geddy Alex and Neil of rush as cool as they seem??

[craziesful]

holy crap this song is so good listened to it like 7 times now lol

[musicwarrior84]

I enjoyed that extra lyric at 1:25. Too bad that didn't make it on the record, really reinforces the meaning of the song.

[lisakfreer]

Yay! I saw these guys in Vancouver! I love BNL soooooooooo much. They're fantastic and wonderous.

PS! That doesnt look like a bathroom at all! :P

[Mykneesrcold]

yea, they're some fantastic

[fly1on1the1wall]

This is my favorite song ever. And you are really, really good. :) I'm gonna watch the vid a few more times now.

[bassmeister11]

Right on This songs melody really grows on you. I love to ski to aluminum to me. Alyou minium to some!

[amylove1975]

one of my favs. Thanks, Ed.

[Prtyjedi]

I love the keyboard sound on the studio version of this song, but it sounds great this way too

[54spiritedwill54]

I LOVE BNL!!!!

[ceeqanguel]

Please Barenaked ladies:

I am a french canadian fan and i would like to speak on behalf of all of youtube users who don't have english as their first language:

We LOVE you and your art:

Please add the written lyrics to the sidebar

*ok i am personally ashamed to admit it but even if i was a translator for forest industry for the last 15 years, i still don't understand some of "king of bed-side manner"lyrics because they are way too frkkin fast*

[AngusMacPorterstine]

but hes just fun to watch onstage

you never know what the guys gonna do

roundhouse kick

scisor kick

you never know

lol

[amylove1975]

Great song - great album. I could watch you all day...

[TelecasterMaster1]

lol i have.

[ductapelosergirl]

Me too!

[AngusMacPorterstine]

its funny cuz this is youtube and its free,

no ones paying them to do this

and yes Van Halen (roth only) kicks ass

[TwiggyRamirez0]

hahaha very true sir...

[62reasons]

Putting this out to you all (fans) - is this song in anyway an association to the Bloor viaduct (Luminous veil)?

Right or wrong. I just wondered...and not alone.

[misterworm]

I think you're thinking about the song "War on Drugs." It's on the same album as this song.

[Reflections88]

ahh i love this song!!!!!!

[willowthebored]

Even after all this time this is still one of my favorite songs; I've never heard an acoustic version before, and it sounds just as good as the original. Go Ed!

[justvisiting222]

i like the Ed growl throughout the song, best exemplified at 3:05

[Raskolnikki]

yeah, anarchemitis. . You would be able to recognize a fellow retard, eh?

[Anarchemitis]

I was replying to a spam advertising ad.

There's a difference between stupidty and comedic quip thereupon.

[CardCaptorG]

Does anyone else think of old chinese food when they listen to this song? HAHAHAHA

Love Barenaked Ladies! Pure Poetry!

[csmazer]

ED IS DREAMY.

[spiffyusernamehere]

indeed!

[amylove1975]

WAAAAY DREAMY!!!

[aubbles46]

the one band i know where each of there songs are brill and are fairly deep!

[Marksman0079]

Love BNL!!! Best Band In The World!!!!!!

[Marksman0079]

kool

[Marksman0079]

**** U For Being A Sick Creep

[rottedheart666]

I LOVE BNL!!!!

[gt667902]

"tout à chacun" m'a toujours rendu inconfortable. Il semble que légèrement trop tout conventionnel que c'est titre transporte mais est très foncé sous la surface, plus ainsi que l'autre BNL libère. Cette chanson est exceptionnelle. De façon générale je pense que la substance était avant et après meilleure, mais elle dépend trop dessus quand et ce que vous écoutez d'abord.

[nintendork64]

"Everything to Everyone" is their best album. I noticed the words are slightly different on this sessision, though (but they still shine in every visible way).

[manzanitajane]

umm, did anyone notice the extra verse thrown in there?

[FunkiePickle]

I sure did...

[tysonmoore]

I did indeed....

ah well... that's creative license for you

[manzanitajane]

I don't mind it all. This is one of my favorites. The more the better in my opinion.

[thenarutard]

well, it is his song. that's what i like about live recordings anyway.

[gt667902]

No, I didn't notice an extra verse.

[Lunairian]

please play Am I the Only One

c'mon dude

Awesome I love the new parts in the songs

[drumgroovy]

I really wanna hear Jane acoustic. Please for once just do a Steve only song. Nothing against you Ed, but I just wanna hear/see Jane!!

[drumgroovy]

Added just a few days back and it's garnered a thousand views? This bathroom sessions thing is a success I would say. And why do you have a PC/notebook in your bathroom?

[mooey13]

maybe they just brought it into their bathroom?

[stargazer42]

You are such an amazing guitarist! Love it! :-)

[cynicalwordsmith]

Thanks so much Ed!!

[maybekatie25]

Thanks, Ed!

[cynicalwordsmith]

Thanks Ed!! One of my favorites off of E2E

(right after For You and Testing 1,2,3...)

[BNLizzi]

Woo! I love Alumin(i)um!

[Kazzahdrane]

hey Ed, loving this song even more acoustic than on the album. Only 4 days til your show in Glasgow, hope you play your new traditional Easter song!

[maveness]

Fantastic as usual - too bad you didn't record the actual shirt change - hee, hee!

Seriously though, thanks for doing such wonderful things for your fans!!

Thanks,

Marie

[wayamy27narf]

I love it when I come back, see a new vid from you, and it's something from the current BNL CD I'm listening to. You are following me, aren't you!

[imdwalrus]

Ed has a new shirt - this means that there's a new batch on the way! Huzzah!

[djdevo]

HEY! At least they gave you a clean shirt.

Remember, AnnieCanada and I are willing to get you guys outta there. If you forgot the Codeword... it's the message "We'd like to talk to you about opening for our next tour" posted on AnnieCanada's latest video. Well, Any video by AnnieCanada would do.

Cool Beans!

[rkm08160]

Thanks a ton Ed. Great as always, appreciated as always.

[39RoyalParkAvenue]

As per... Awesome - thanks Ed

[lilacgirl71]

Oh, thank you so much!!! One of my absolute FAVORITES!!! Can't wait for my others, and I'm so happy to know they're coming. Eventually! :)

[quinbooka]

I have never been interested in watching anyone play guitar until you did these Bathroom Sessions. I think you are an amazing player.

Rhonda

[allison5210]

Wonderful as always!! Great job, thanks for taking the time to play and post these!! =)

[reallymzungu]

Hey, a new shirt!

Oh, and the song is great too. :)

[Beardman]

Awesome! Thanks Ed - this is my favourite song of yours from Everthing to Everyone.

[eileenalana81]

These are brilliant! I found the Bathroom Sessions last night and have watched them all (Work? What work?!). They're an absolute treat!

Also, I saw you at the Hammersmith Apollo on Friday night. Excellent show! Come back to the UK soon!

[ShadowAoi]

Ed... what kind of guitar is that?

[jimriot]

Im not Ed, but im pretty sure it's a Taylor 810 or 910

[nickoljay]

This is awesome Ed - love em all! I've been checking everyday to see what you have uploaded - I'm spending too much time in your bathroom! Can't wait to see you live again in June!

[elicitwildly]

You're awesome, Ed. Thanks!

[jzancan]

i was wondering when this song was gonna go up!
