[JeretLedger1985]

[vinniechan]

This is well cute :)

[Lima9951]

Good performance. Thanks!

[ellis25054]

this is what i get when i search up my name

[irisdadey]

@ellis25054 much more sassy than what pops up for my name.

[baconBM]

Eugeneeee

[rumginny]

Sorry, but Eugene was married and just having a little fun while his wife was out of town.

[siliceolpez]

love this song!!

[wassup287]

The tune sounds suspiciously like The Beatles' You Won't See Me.

[asyouwish141]

@wassup287 Not suspiciously: they bear a slight resemblance, and I can see how you thought of You Won't See Me, but China Forbes would never use music from an outside source without citing it.

[juxhin27]

An amazing song,,And my name is Eugene-->>Juxhin Its the same



[Bytehoven]

Excellent tune, although I am surprised that we didn't hear Eugene say, "You won't see me." (You might have had to have been alive in December of 1965, or shortly thereafter, to recognize the reference.)

[lolipops1998gmailcom]

EUGENE!!!!

CAL ME



[gerochka123]

Just watched them at Kennedy Center yesterday! Bravo! Amazing performance!

[waveboarder221]

her voice is so jazzy, so beautiful!!! <3333333

[Fernyxferny]

Saw them live last night... hadn't heard a single song of them before...

Best surprise in years :)

[eogren]

Too funny! I could be your Eugene!

[eogren]

Too funny!



[Marinacarmenp]

Getting in the mood to see them live tomorrow (or today as it's past midnight), I'm really excited.

[Fernyxferny]

@Marinacarmenp I went because of Tryo an found myself pretty astounded... and ashamed of my ignorance :)

[Marinacarmenp]

@Fernyxferny I just saw your comment, they were so good. I wouldn´t call it ignorance, there´s many great bands we've never heard of. I´m glad it was your best surprise in years.

[heranje]

Hey Eugene,

That was a mistake.

[PrinceofCarolina]

Dear Eugene,

Way to go, A-hole!!!

Sincerely,

Everyone

[PrinceofCarolina]

Dear Eugene,

Way to go, A-hole!!!

[aguy1948]

I'm going to a pink martini concert tomorrow HAPPY !

[iceonaboy]

He didnt call because he sobered up!

[Musiccislifee123]

@iceonaboy he ended up with cancer and died.

[SteelerPride99]

as a Eugene, I can tell you this makes for a wondeful ringtone

[washingtonboy09]

@SteelerPride99 LOL that made my day

[ippuni4eva]

88panzzer I think YOU are crazy. Get over yourself and enjoy the music

[azzy314159]

This is so beautiful. Je l'adore. Totalement.

[jcgloor]

...great idea to call life back!

[FrankSerio]

Wonderful

[FrankSerio]

Wonderfull

[spannerman69]

bet he`s kicking himself know.

[tawfikakkad]

Eugene is so stupid ,,,

[youjean123451]

my name is eugene too haha

[pressionezero]

Amazing ! is just a piece of art

[kobebryant9981]

@fdsffdd

Pretty cool, I wish I remembered the first YouTube video I ever watched

[ilia393]

.....it remind me a Beatles song....

[fdsffdd]

This was the first video i saw on YouTube! This was four years ago and I still remember this song, so I found it again.

[celloguy]

1:48

[GRLRaperin]

LOL my name is Eugene, and in spanish is Eugenio

[MrTrompete22]

HEY Eugene U remember Me?

[Arrooh]

Maybe his wife didn't let him call. Yes been there, done that, even with just friend type connections. I like the song.

[claudiawindjammer]

need a better recording! yikes!

[Vilmita03]

Someone correct me if i'm wrong... Is this the only original song Pink Martini has? Id not, pls let me know which other songs are original. All the others i've listened to are covers...

[thelionf]

great song and energy to it!

[wmhamby]

@duckleft - I have been a huge fan of Astrud Gilberto for over 20 years. She has a classic voice that you can recognize the minute she starts to sing. Love Bebel Gilberto too. No offense to the Pink Martini fans, I just think their sound has already been done-only better. To those that are fans, that's great!

[TheMuzikanten]

And on guitar...jazz star Dan Faehnle, his wife Pansie on the cello......wasted on this

Amusements music group - Lawrence Welk with a beat...

Chuck

[shydog420]

I bet he's trying to call now! Ha!

[TheElephant79]

This Band is unfuckinbelievable !

[wmhamby]

I don't get why this band is so popular. They sound like every other unsigned band. Yet they have been signed to a label and are playing The Hollywood Bowl. Don't get it - and I am open to most any kind of music. Sounds like a bad Swing out Sister tribute band.

[Meekseek]

@wmhamby clearly, yes, you don't get it.

[Duckleft]

@wmhamby I'm somewhat with you. I like their sound but their singer really does not work for me. Her voice is too heavy..too talky. When I hear these retro sounds I end up comparing them to someone like Astrud Gilberto and she isn't even close to that light lilting sound I prefer over this style of music.

[rturunc]

I said hello eugene are you gay:) eugene:)

[kurolap]

Thanks for writing a song about me :)

[Deedums530]

I bet Eugene feels like a tool now, huh? LOL.

[luxyferum]

for god's sake, eugene! call her!

[drkorb]

That is what we, in the insurance sector, call LIFE :P

[creeper1981]

My name is not Eugene but I could change it for that woman... she could call me anything and I wouldn't mind too...

[henrysinaga]

I got their latest album but the "Hey! Eugene!" track came without any vocals WTF!!!!

[nkampouris]

This Eugene was either too stoned to write China's number properly down on the soggy piece of paper or must be such a jerk for turning her down... Either way I'm sure he's out there regreting he didn't call every time he listens to the song...

[spunkkymunkky]

hehe xD

[silverremedy]

Wow I didn't realize there were so many Eugenes out there. I just think of the not so great city in Oregon called Eugene.

[WayfaringStranger309]

No, I´m Eugene! :)

[thunderclap28]

wasn't me.

[Eugenie1996]

im eugene too!! eugenes unite! :DDDD

[GliOmini]

Hey. I'm Eugene. I'm back, any messages for me??

[dandoocha6]

@GliOmini ha3ha3!!

seriously? =D :D

[Meekseek]

@GliOmini  :D how long do you think she waited Eugene :D

[releasethejam]

now this is just a thought and may not be the right but... perhaps the reason he didn't call was coz u wrote ur phone number on a "soggy paper towel"! The numbers probably got smudged and he couldn't read it! Poor Eugene.

[wbb0024]

good point

[kthankxbye]

Shouldn't have broken up with Kao honey, he's really rich now!

[LillyLovesGodAllote]

hey I'm in Eugene love it!!

[Mahs222]

This song is hilarious!

[Ch3w3h]

lol eugenes bummed he didnt call =p

[MissLibertyBell]

where can i download the audio of this video? I have the original CD, but I prefer this live version of "Hey Eugene" song. Thank you!

[wtg544]

Me too! No clue.

[kilgannon]

You could try using vixy, convert it to mp3

[Travelingwilbury92]

man!! all these months i was in luv with the song because i thought Eugine was a girl (it sounds like a girl's name), but now that i know it was a guy, the song may remain great, but its meaning and power is vanished (in my view)

[prickycactus]

I know the feeling.

[Travelingwilbury92]

you do?:P

[prickycactus]

Yes I do.When someones expectations are not fulfilled,he/she losses the passion..Quite psychological

[uriangatobataclan]

What a cool tune!! I love it. I used to listen to it on the radio and never got the name of the song nor the band for weeks, I knew about them a few months and I can´t stop listening to this particular piece, it's soooo great!!!

[Karaokeloverjen]

I only came across this video as I was looking for Pink videos, class find though!

[pvrpl313]

I've seen two shows of them and i am a huge fan i live in vancouver and i was so close to them it was at a standing concert.

[tsalforbes]

Pink Martini is really popular. I'm China's cousin and I've only been able to see three shows.

[polkaxdotxlove]

omg this is my world history's teacher name...and i wonder if he is the Eugene she's talking about...if so...I'M TELLING HIS WIFE lol j/k j/k j/k santillan if ur reading this...ummm....i'm not in your class!!! lol

[minimelstarr]

LOL i Know This Song Coz Its On At Work

[uigen]

Than you for sharing

qtkitty4u1.

[qtkitty4u1]

Ive heard this a couple of times i think its great B-D

[csheldon]

really really cool

[Econniff]

FINALLY, a song about me

:p

[pvrpl313]

LOL cool i know ii am waiting for a song called Chloe

[guisar81]

Album version done better but a great song.

[sunnsight]

THA'S WHAT I THOUGHT TOO!!!!

[stevewl1164]

I remembered it reminds me of 10000 maniacs!

[Kardeslertakimi]

exactly 10.000 maniacs style!

[stevewl1164]

What a lot of different instuments for one song! That was quite an orchestration!

[diana4u2]

the song rockz:X

[babyhaines86]

one more thing - pink martini's a good band; not my cup of tea. that's probably how i should've put it.

[babyhaines86]

oh come on, women are so stupid. we had a "great connection"? does she even realize that men don't listen half the time?~??

[pepelica26]

omfg...how the fuck can u be so stupid???there is no law against ur idiotic fucking dead brain? R.I.P

[babyhaines86]

what's your problem!?

thanks for the kind wishes, i'll get them tattooed on my ass.

[pepelica26]

just die puppet. if women are so stupid u should just eat ur tattoo and take it of from ur fucking head. i bet u are a fucking virgin moron that is not fucked in the ass not even by a stupid fag.

[babyhaines86]

i don't think i've ever been met with so much internet disdain in my life.

[pepelica26]

I have disdain for people that are calling others stupid especially when is done with such an idiotic discrimination. If u are not able to feel something over the words read my mess from above. End of story

[Dominicano1197]

you're one sexist cuntrag, honestly worthless. and that idiot that argued with you doesn't help, but still, whatever mommy did to you when you were little...get over it, then maybe these "stupid" women will actually pay attention to you.

[Dominicano1197]

and I'm pretty sure at least half the women in the world would win against you in a fist fight.

[seborrea]

¡Te amo China!

[TheKingOfRuckus]

I'm sure Eugene is kicking himself right now.

[patmansf]

If he only remembered her ... "you weren't that drunk"

[lloboh]

BRAVO!

[bhfire]

I have to wonder about this eugene fellow...is he cringing now?

[bisnagaboy]

PINK MARTINI is the best!

I LOVE CHINA FORBES!

I can't wait for them to perform in the SF Bay Area again!

[kikokoukla]

teleio tragoudi..mporo na to akouo me tis ores...krima pou exasa tin sinaulia tous...

thessaloniki loves pink martini!

[BobbyMacaroni]

Magnifique!

[gobernal]

I agreed!!!

[trSoapman]

The first time I've listened to this song I said to myself: There are so much very good songs out there you don't hear about. This is definetely one of them.

[vhtfhwlego]

I'm Eugene & was born on 5th Sep. The day after this video being upload! Maybe I was the Eugene she is talking about!

[carbomite13]

:))

[IBrakeForBananas]

OMGG she says Eugene soo moneeyyy TIMESS...I'm called Eugene lmao gayy

[sportyeugenio]

booooooring

[ghaws]

the overall level of internationalism represented on this forum is social proof enough to evidence that this group (pink martini) is, for lack of a more sophisticated descriptor, the SHIT.

[frankilloso]

muy buenos

[frankilloso]

vengo de verlos hoy en concierto y la verdad ke me ha sorprendido,la tia tiene una voz ke flipas

[pathammond]

not music wise, but the lyrics are actually TERRIBLE like.

[pathammond]

[ra521509]

[sordobrutos]

[littleste89]

[Karaokeloverjen]

How can you not like this song? At least it's real music and proper lyrics, not like some of the manufactured shite you get nowadays. Sheeesh...

[hit004541]

It is wannabe

[dioncat]

[andydeiter]

YOU  fucking fools know nothing. this song is one of the most honest and (good music) tunes you'll ever hear-bank on it you right wing pricks.
