Steve Martain- King Tut

[futuremsfarmar1]

was the guy playing the sax the sax player in the blues brothers?

[mdrx168]

Just learned in ss that tut died of club feet, malaria!

[planetchinchilla]

Born in Arizona...got a condo made of stona! King tut !

[kmacdallas]

Watched this on SNL Live in the l70's. At that time The King Tut Exhibit was in Chicago. Steve killed it then, amazed us with his take, and still does....

[SEVFEST]

Buried with a donkey, He's My favorite Honkey LOL

[Broblem12]

Love the song and performance. Saw it years ago on SNL, maybe when it was first broadcast. Thanks for sharing.

[JugheadObama]

Steve Martian?

[MsThebeMoon]

If King Tutankhamun could be revived from his mummy, I wonder what he would think of this. He was ~18 yo when he died. Once he recovered from culture shock and was debriefed, he would have to love this.  I wonder how many things are incorrect in the song and King Tut would be filling in the inaccuracies, like "I wasn't actually born in Babylonia".

[ravenangelofdarknes1]

man our techer showed us this and she started to sing along and dance

[GriffenWar]

King Tut... *FUNKY FACE* *FUNKY FACE*

[Bidmoney16]

My teacher showed me this at school.

[funnypeople1091]

I love this video!!! We saw this in TAG class today. We are learning about Egypt and king tut. It is really fun. Anyway I LOVE this video!

[cocopuffs002]

My techer made us watch this in Social Studies Class and we couldnt stop laughing... then she paused it and yelled at us and then starting dancing and singing..Very Scary!! :))

[devatiriya]

I think King Tut would have reincarnated long enough to see this .. and die laughing!

[LeahJane1995]

Ya you're gonna love it. @Thornsberryfamily

[Thornsberryfamily]

King tut he's my fav hunky!!! Lol! Luv Steve Martin!!!!!

[LeahJane1995]

Lol yeah it is funny you should have seen the one of Steve Martin impersonating Michael Jackson people on here were confused whether Michael actually went grey when he wasn't at all! I watched this video once it was Saturday Night Live I believe this was '78 or '79 pretty sure. Funny how the impersonator of King Tut plays the sax!!!! @Thornsberryfamily

[Thornsberryfamily]

King tut too funny

[Henyaist]

did u see that guy in the coffin? i bet it would be painful standing in the coffin all that time i bet you should have second thoughts 'bout playing that in your talent show

[LeahJane1995]

I believe that he was King Tut! @Henyaist

[Henyaist]

@LeahJane1995 ya! but king tut is already dead!

[Henyaist]

@Henyaist i used to be an egyptian fanatic and i am 10 now and i knew that king tut is dead since i was 8

[LeahJane1995]

Ya lol @LeahJane1995

[TheRikkitikki2]

[RollyRancher1]

@123twolf

Okay! LOL!!!! :)

[alane4u]

TOO AWESOME!



[LeahJane1995]

I heard this prior to Christmas 2011 laughing at the boy king talking and the use of funky

[123twolf]

The first time i watched this was when i was in 7th grade and we play the curse of tutankamen for our contest concert and may i say we sounded awesome!!!!! :)

[Rushlimpballs]

He gave his life for tourism. LOL!

[skater1944]

o-0 kind tut was a stoner ?????????????

[IExposeMormonism]

Steve Martin put a Bass o Matic at the feet of the Sax player....Why??

[FoxRunMan]

@IExposeMormonism Just guessing, but it probably was an inside joke, a cross-reference to a recurring SNL Bass-o-Matic skit by Dan Akroyd. Maybe Steve participated in the BoM skit on that episode????

[LeahJane1995]

Oh my god he was in my Girl 1-2 and in 1984's film Ghostbusters @FoxRunMan

[jokerchick411]

it should probably scare me to see steve martin in a skirt, but nothing scares me anymore

[ndrussiangerman1]

That's back in the day when SNL has originality and creativity. Nowadays it's just nothing but politically correct propaganda.

[qrdavis133]

haha

[LeahJane1995]

I heard of that song from aged 4 or 8 haven't heard it for 7 years

[grozar1]

Hey, you don't hardly see fantastic stuff like this on tv anymore...

[Mardelagurrl]

@warriorgal333 Because my school is the warriors... I was just wondering. Sorry

[eylonarbel]

My s.s. teacher showed this to my 6th grade class today.

It was so funny!!!

[samiipaige11]

A group of Boys did this for a talent show!!! It was B.A!!!

[GlamDiva0]

my s.s teacher showed us this and at first the class didn't get it until he actually started sing and then she told us it was on snl and i was thinking "that explains allot about this video" then when "King Tut" came out of his sarcophogus and started playing the sax everyone was yelling " ahh King Tut is Back from the dea" and tuff lie that and omg i was dieing that day and i am in 6th grade and i actually saw it earlier this week and bet half the class did not even know what snl was BUT I DID

[raymanxemrald]

@GlamDiva0 my s.s teacher showed this to my class today everyone laughed but me, im in 6th grade to

[Mardelagurrl]

Today in school we listened to this and decided what was right and not... Wow.... He is seriously NOT a history buff! JK LOL

[Mardelagurrl]

This song makes my picture my uncle dancing! I can see him singing and dancing to this!

[microlinx]

Wasn't that "Blue" Lou Marini from the Blues Brothers band playin' sax?

[RayNDeere]

@microlinx Yep. That's Blue Lou. That's probably the SNL Band in the background, but members of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band (as "The Toot Uncommons") performed on the single.

[dwolfe71]

well tut was not a honkey by any means!!! Steve is really smart and slick ...he used that word honkey on purpose.

[979alonso]

Lol we watched this because we're going to see the exhibit here in houston

[nudude16]

I HAVE Sooo Many Influences....

[loverocketify]

Watched this in World History class. Everybody had a poker face on. But when our teacher asked who wanted to see it again, half of the class raised their hands.

[shakespeare1147]

I got to sit through this in history class today… :D

[TheRedWall89]

My history teacher showed this. I learned more from this than my textbook.

[kja427]

This novelty tune from 1978 was EVERY BIT as good as Ray Stevens' "The Streak". Because, on The Billboard Pop Charts, it only made it to # 17 instead of #1 should make America ashamed of itself. Some People!

[scubasam1ful]

Watched this in History today it was freaking awesome!!!!! i love my teacher hes the best teacher ever!! he played it over and over again and some kids got up and started dancing and singing along to it lol

[VrgniaMailman]

@scubasam1ful Right on!! This skit was made about 1977, back when SNL was truly stupendous. The writers they had then were terrific. " ..... Dancing by the Nile ..... Ladies loved his style ....!!" LOL "He could have won a Grammy .... buried in his jammies!!" How'd they ever come up with such creative, funny lines?? And of course the dancing by Steve and the two ladies just makes this awesome. I love golf, and way back when I sank a long putt, I would imitate Steve's moves.

[scubasam1ful]

@VrgniaMailman yes he could have won a Grammy! lol and who knows how they came up with a creative funny lines and niceeeee

[PeaceLuvHappiness324]

Weird... Learning seriously in Social Studies then watching this! :) LOVE YOUUU STEVE MARTAIN! :D

[dudeitsrebecca]

i luv this video YOU ARE MY ROLE MODEL

[queenahmose]

Cute costumes.

[VrgniaMailman]

This was one of the very best and funniest of all the thousands of SNL skits. The real show-stopper was when the sax player comes out of the sarcophagus (the vertical coffin)!! Shortly after seeing this skit, every time that I was playing golf and either I or one of my playing partners made a great shot, I would copycat Steve's "palms-up, arms-extended" move. Had to tell the guys what on earth I was doing, but once they understood, they LOLed.

[Bluestardude11]

Go Steve Martin

[Bluestardude11]

King Tut's so funny lol

[jstanz22]

We're learning about Ancient Egypt right now in History and out teacher showed it to us. Sooooo funny

[Bluestardude11]

@jstanz22 Same here man. Thats exactly what we did.

[TMNTG]

Chicken Wire???

[keyofawesomelover102]

[Skyleremoboyy]

[chubbyfatchub]

[ikkitwins1]

freakin hilarious !!!!!

[bobgreenwade]

I loved this song, and this is the best presentation ever -- especially the revelation of the sax player. Speaking of whom, is that Lenny Pickett? Or was this before he moved from TOP to SNL?

[itagui11]

[demonslayerz2010]

[NYer79]

@michladd24

around 1978 or 79, from Saturday Night Live.

[partycircle101]

We watched this in class and by the end of the day it was memorized

[TeamNinjaAssassin]

My World History teacher said he was going to show us a serious emotional video about King Tut.....then he showed us this.

[TheRutledgest]

@TeamNinjaAssassin @TheRedWall89 You guys are lucky that you have such cool teachers. Steve Martin in his SNL days is legendary!

[kinzkat22]

[totalstupidness9]

[XCPKK]

[pengorade]

[123twolf]

This is the best song ever and those 2 people who disliked it have NO sense of humor!! :)

[LadyJenocide]

[StankySwank]

[MarthaH605]

HAHAHAHA!

[pikachusDeMoN]

[darkhusky88]

I remember seeing this on tv:p

[grungefreak10]

My first year of college my old history teacher (who looked like Steve Martin incidentally) asks "Everyone know who King Tut was?" And I reply "Some guy Steve Martin wrote a song about!" It figures the professor got it and cracked up, but the rest of the students were totally clueless.

[johntasha2]

Martain? Did you mean Martian? Or his real name: Martin? You must be a wild & crazy Czechoslovakian.

[MsTanaBug]

I remember in sixth grade my social studies teacher played this and my friends and i got in front of the class room and started dancing lol! XD

[OkapiVideo]

steve martin should be worshipped as a god

[alexancia5279]

Wasn't that sax player the sax player in the Blue's Brother's?

[FCWPM]

@alexancia5279 Yep.  Blue Lou Marini.

[bigwurm27]

@alexancia5279 yes pretty much the whole band was

[JOSECANUCCJ]
