  • I LOVE NERDFIGHTERS!

    Seriously, I'm in Britain and I've loved the NErdfighter group so much I've become one and have gone onto YouTube. So if you got a spare minute or two come on over and take a watch?

    DFTBA John and Hank

  • my thing started to buffer right after he said "if you enjoy music you're welcome" lmfao

  • I love the top two comments (and don't thumbs up because I want them to stay there forever)!

  • Does anyone know if he wrote the words on his guitar with a marker?

  • @PeetaPettigrew I don't think so. They look painted on. (By the way, I love your username.)

  • @Pixiestix123321 Oh mk. And thanks :D

  • Sorry, Hank, just spent all my money on John's books xD

    But your CDs (because I prefer the physical rather than the digital copies JUST IN CASE) are next on my list :3

  • All these songs are on my iPod! :)

  • STRANGE CHARM

    is strange charm on this

  • i love how you let people have your work for free. i am so impressed im buying a itunes card and buying my favs

  • hey, I have that shirt!

  • 46 people are n00bs

  • @MarkNie1 no they are not, in fact 2576 people are n00bs because pwn is pronounced own. this video reminds me of ghey and makes me wanna facepalm. PURE PWNAGE FTW

  • @gralkses I'm sorry, I don't speak your language, what is"ghey"?

  • @BoReD748 you are, cuz you're a n00b lol

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @MarkNie1 LOL ROFL LOL N00B FAG LOL

  • you got that shirt from woot.

  • lol i love the interactive transcript

  • I clicked the 1911 button in the corner of the video and thought it was something of Hank's creation. I was disappointed shortly afterward. Any Star Trek-themed ragtime coming up soon?

  • I absolutely love the whole Video LP idea!

  • @HelloImJessD That song was written after this album came out. I'm sure he'll have it on the next one!

  • what happened to the song you wrote with dan brown?

  • OK, so a thought I had while watching through all the backlog of videos:

    Have you ever considered making karaoke tracks for your songs?

    So then nerdfighters could record themselves singing your songs without having to learn to play the instrumental parts themselves?

  • Me likey the hair Hank

  • When you ask my two year old nephew what his daddy does he always answers: "Daddy pwns noobs!"

  • I think I love you.

  • SHIRT.WOOT HECK YES. hank, you just got more awesome.

  • Purchased :)

    Best $18.50 I've spent in a while.

    Except possibly the $18.50 I sent Japan.

    ...$18.50???

  • Exceptionally swoopy hair is exceptional.

  • Hank needs a haircut. lol

  • what does DFTBA stand for?

  • @birthdaygirl1126 DON'T FORGET TO BE AWESOME!!!!!!

  • @birthdaygirl1126 or another of the many explanations in that song such as: Darling, fetch the battle-axe; do fish take baths a lot?; and dandelions fly through blue air. But yeah the main one almost everyone knows it by is Don't forget to be awesome.

  • Where the hell is Strange Charm?

  • uhmm ... is that admiral ackbar on your shirt?

  • Why is "Strange Charm" not there?

  • @bogartnumbertwo

    It's already posted. xD People've heard it, and if not it's right there in the recommended videos.

  • @xKiyuri But the other tracks have already been posted separately too and Hank talks over the intro to "Strange Charm" in that video and it's my favourite song that he's done and I can't get in on iTunes :-(

  • @bogartnumbertwo It's for his album This Machine Pwns n00bs, it's not a new album so the newer songs of his are not on there.

    Well, at least I'm pretty sure that's true, *awkward laugh*

  • Hell yes, Hank! You are beyond righteously awesome! Thank you, thank you, thank you :)

  • I bought the album on iTunes. Why? 'Cause I loved it. Why else... Because Hank guitar DOES pwn noobs..

  • Is it just me, or is there no link on the Anglerfish song??

  • DFTBA is like FEAR by Ian Brown, not in how it sounds but the concept...still cool though.

  • glorious.

  • @Lilllw or it's a cigarette

    or a bundle of sticks

    it's a colloquialism and should be treated as such

  • I do own the album... there is a poster of you on my wall.

    And that sounded WAY less creepy in my head.

    I'm gonna be sharing these with my friends. You're awesome.

  • I have that shirt! WIN!

  • HE SPOKE OF TUMBLR!! RULE #1 MAN, RULE #1

  • @AlexRyu101 You tumblr people and your annoying rules!!!!!!!!!! 

  • okay, youtube really needs a replay button now.

  • @abihjohnson I'm pretty sure there is one... Just saying.

  • Hank, what are you looking at?

  • Any plans to put this on the Zune Marketplace?

  • I already own this album :D

  • Hank, I want your shirt badly.

  • "if you do enjoy my music you"

    rotating circle appears

    FUUUUUUUUU!!!!!

  • @hiddenbutdeadly Exact same thing happened to me!

  • I got this CD and the I'm So Bad At This Live CD for my birthday! So Jokes was sold out. :( They are so great! Keep making awesome music, Hank!

  • @macburl2 lol seriously, you don't know the connection? There's a poster of that in Margo's (from Paper Towns) room. You know, Paper Towns, written by John Green...

  • is this a legal five minute and five second video?

  • I do not know Internet Speak, so I was wondering what does the title "This Machine Pwns n00bs" mean.Thanks

  • I feel pretty ripped off.

  • I am a straight male and I still think your hair is sexy today.

  • @blarghery ...it's always sexy :) <3 I'm a girl though :P

  • my calculus/physics teacher has that shirt xD

  • Where's the Ranavalona the First song?!?!

  • woody guthrie's awesome don't see many other fans these days!

  • what the hell is wrong with you people.... this song is frikkin awesome. there were like 39 people that disliked that song. :( stupid people

  • That shirt contains so much win, I can't even begin to make sense of it.

  • Don't try listening to this while doing politics homework the night before your final on it. Homework will not get done. :) Hank, you're awesome.

  • Hank this is the BEST...... see how i capitolized (best) that how you know i mean it :D

  • He has done this before, when he finished his video but let it play show you the whole song of something. John asked about punishing him and then Hank said it doesn't count because the VIDEO was over, and it was just music that was left.

    They left it up to a vote by us. I don't remember how that ended, but I say that if he was punished then, he should be now, if not, then he shouldn't.

  • You're so nice, Hank.

  • I am buying it JUST for the anglerfish song. You are lucky...:3

  • THIS IS SUCH WIN. 8D I love this, Hank! I mean, this is just fantastic! It's completely awesome of you to do this. :) Thanks! Oh, and you totally don't deserve a punishment because I don't believe this is your official video for Monday. The Haiti one is, right? Besides, this is an extremely generous and Nerdfightastic thing to do. So I don't think a punishment is necessary at all. DFTBA! :D

  • what is the punishment for a over four minute video

  • Hank...your shirt is fabulous :D

  • can I put them on my Friendster page?

  • um where is your video montage, sir?

  • Darling, fetch the battle axe.

    That's my favorite one.

  • OVER 4:00?!

  • Over 4:00 penalty?

    Also, I am now listening to the album while I clean my room. INSPIRATION!

  • I want that shirt he's wearing. xP

  • I bought your album on Amazon MP3.

  • Being a new nerdfighter, I haven't heard must of these songs before. and i must say this album is AWESOME. i can't stop listening

  • Is that really General Ackbar on your shirt?

  • My dads wallet hates you

  • I promise I'm going to buy the album! I want the poster to match mah Woody Guthrie :)

  • The album title+picture is a reference to Woody Guthrie and his guitar "This Machine Kills Fascists." You have my respect.

  • I'm going to listen to this and revise my college essays.

  • You can even get a youtube to mp3 converter and make this nerdfighter never make money :l

  • @googleman37 yeah but thats just gay

  • just wondering when did you come up with the tune in this video?

  • @CravingCock738 interesting username you got there...-heavy sarcasm, with a hit of confusion...-

  • I bought this CD a LONG time ago...=]

  • where can i get that shirt?

  • Does this even count as a video?

  • Here are the reasons why Hank SHOULDN'T be punished:

    1. He's awesome for putting up all his songs on here so we can all listen to them

    2. He's taking even MORE pills

    3. His extra minutes here make up for John's really, REALLY short video on Friday

  • @totalelmofreak technically he made another video on the same day that was under 4 minutes, so technically this doesn't break the rules and falls under things like when he does things like Truth or Fail :P

  • @Furycrab True...but does it still count even if it's not a vlogbrothers video?

    Besides, I kind of wanna punish John now for some reason :D

  • @totalelmofreak yes, but John's video was a truth or fail, so technicly it was LOOOOOOOONG

  • @totalelmofreak Another reason is because hank's actual video is only a minute long. The other 4 minutes of the video is the first song on the LP!

  • @totalelmofreak yes but Hank should be punished because he is awsome. Therefor, the punishments he completes are awsome.

  • @totalelmofreak

    All true, but he still broke the rules. I love him for his songs and such, but I want a punishment video more than songs which he has previously posted. Taking more pills should not exempt him from punishment! perhaps delay it...

  • @heyummrandommuch I've only seen John answer stuff on both videos :(

    Maybe I'm not looking through the comments enough to see:

    -Hank

  • 4 minute rule?

  • Rule #1 DONT TALK ABOUT TUMBLR.

  • @JESUSr00lz Tumblr sucks. 

  • I already have the album. I blast it in my car. :3

    Your hair looks pretty. <3

  • @PuckishNymph333 I blast it in the car as well =] It is quite fun ! And his hair does look rather pretty...

  • I put my hardrive on my turntable... it didn't work... thank god I had a spare.

  • EXCUSE ME DID YOU JUST MENTION TUMBLR ON YOUTUBE SHFBCVREFSDVC

  • I MUST HAVE THAT T-SHIRT.

  • hank, you dont look pretty good in the video, get some rest ,looks like you need it take care =) DFTBA

  • THIS IS BRILLIANT. It must have taken you very very very long to set this up.

  • YES!! go hank go !

  • Mega-awesome. I already bought the album when it came out but this is still super awesome. Makes me all the more happy that I supported you. :)

  • The only thing that disappoints me is the absence of "strange Charm". That song got me an A on my science mid-term.

  • Is that a woody guthrie reference?

    This machine kills fascists - this machine pwns noobs?

    Or is that just coincidence?

  • @pb0o6 It is indeed a reference and a very good one at that.

  • 5 minustes?????

  • Did he say tumblr?

  • Hank! You spoke of the site which must not be named! ;) Tisk tisk...

  • You're awesome Hank. thanks for this :)

  • omg more than 4 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????

  • No need for this...i own the album and its Freaking awesome!

    I brought it when it was available on itunes...lol i was on holiday and was like

    "I gotta get Hanks album!"

    *Finds wi-fi point and downloads*

    Epic holiday begins when download finishes! lol

  • That DFTBA track is pretty freaking awesome!!!

  • Is that a shirt.woot shirt I spy? That made my day so much happier.

  • Thank you, Hank! After listening to the album over and over online I just went ahead and purchased it via iTunes.

  • Hank you are so freaking amazing for posting this.

  • I'm giving up buying things online for lent.. :(

  • awesome side bar

  • I'm sorry but I feel compelled to actually swear: what a fucking stand up guy!

  • what does the LP mean?

  • @brokinwand92 lets play

  • danka!

  • Yay Woot! shirt LOVE IT!

  • Whats to stop someone from hypothetically just downloading these videos from youtube??

  • @christblood2 The awesome that is Nerdfighteria and an honor code?

    That plus, since he's actually made Song Wednesday videos with these songs already, that may have happened.

    He's just being epic and letting us listen to the awesome. :)

    I bought the CD when it came out :D

  • @foreverjynxed I consider my self a man of honor. Therefore, I will resist the urge to pirate.

  • hank i love you. thank you.

  • @vlogbrothers umm sorry i didn't mean to be a giant squid of anger

  • Comment removed

  • i would love to see the music videos.... but like "high buget" stuff

  • This video is longer than 4 minutes... And there is no montage?.... Is that a punishment I feel coming?

  • I love this album. I listen to these songs all the time. In fact some of the songs are in my top 25 most played,

  • Hank, where's strange charm? That was my favouriteee :(

  • @itslikesnow ¬_¬ ¬_¬ ¬_¬ ¬_¬

  • I bought your cd hank I am way excited to hear it.

  • DONT FORGET TO BE AWSOME! :D love it ;) my 5year old brother is a nerdfighter in the making-thanks to me

  • This should be Nerdfighteria's national anthem.

  • I JUST bought this album ... ohwell, It's sooooo worth it for the poster :D

  • Since when does he have braces?!?!?!

  • DFTBA is the best song ever!

  • What happened to your collaberation with Dan Brown (AKA PogoBat)?????

  • Thanks for reminding me that I need to clean my office. How did you know?

  • Dandelions Fly Through Blue Air.... hahahahaha!

  • this music is...different think ill stick to the books

  • Oh... That is what it means. xD

  • @molinMUSE Sorry, I saw now that the album is actually there, it's just at the bottom. Awesome :D

  • this is epic

    DFTBA

  • Cheers Hank, i bought the album but now i can share the joy of your music with friends.

  • I love you. And not in a creepy way, I promise. More like the way I love Gandhiji.

  • @SplintersOfHope I love him in a creepy way, what's wrong with that? Also is it just me or does Hank get cutter as time goes on?
