  • well fellow music lovers, the iraq conflict(I don't think it was declared as war by congress)"is finally over, tally the casualties. 1.2mill iraq deaths..10k us deaths. I think we just created a whole new generation of assholes that hate us.keep your powder dry.

  • Ahhh.. $1.93 those were the days

  • Currently in Afghanistan never thought I'd be here listening to it here. I used to listen to these guys on bob and tom back in the day. Wish they were still together!

  • Don't know why but I like this one, well maybe I am just not in a mood for the old soap box tonight too lol.

  • hrm Lets rock baby

  • From a veteran of Iraq (2003-2004): a big old, "Thank You!" I _hate_ those fucking stickers.

  • so PC loool hahaha

  • GREAT video!

  • I've loved this video since it's inception.

  • so true to real life!! So sad to see the stickers on cars...... a son, brother, father, is out there fighting for........??? When we will ever learn! Funny as h**L video, thanks, Spnkers

  • Good song and good video. The singers look good intension.

  • I like this video. The singers sing the song very well.

  • Asylum Street Spankers very great.

  • Asylum Street Spankers so cool.

  • This video is great.

  • Sad to see them call it quits.  But the upside , we have Guy Forysth and Wammo to entertain us! Guy's been doing it for years! I love all of them!

  • @debbycoley whammo too

  • I love this video.... with the Four Freshmen in the background. Actually three. And the cute dancing ribbon. Someone is a genius.

  • Awesome cleaver songs. I hope we put an end to this war but humor is always awesome.

  • @fuckenaguru you're a moron. they're a band, not actors. and they did great btw.

  • the greatest 9-11 truth song ever produced!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • OMG that is Hillarious! A great example Slactivists/Slacktivism!! GREAT group!

  • This was the first YouTube video I ever saw.

  • I love it!

    It's beautiful.....

    I want to have their baby..!

  • Seems to me that folks like this have a responsibility to the country to stay together and keep spreading the word. Absolutely brilliant!

  • the most underrated group ever - they are all brilliant!

  • There is so much truth in this song it is amazing.

  • but oneone gets it....

  • I thought the scrotum song was funny , but this is is just way ahead of that song .

  • Farewell Tour - Aug, 2010 The Spankers will go their separate ways.

  • @paulgrem so depressing.

  • @paulgrem Any idea what the deal is? I notice Wammo isn't listed on their Facebook page. I wonder if he's the one who decided to quit, or if he's sick or something?

  • @MusicMissionary I don't know except several new babies bouncing around, it harder to keeps good musicians and get them to travel. Time to visit Austin.

  • @paulgrem I wish instead of "retiring" they would just stick around and play in Austin.

  • @paulgrem

    Very, very, very sad.... I'll be at their show this Sunday (1 Aug 2010) in NYC at Joe's Pub.

  • @paulgrem Yep and Wammo has left the group too. Spankers without Wammo? No, I don't think so.

  • Very cool and funny how they criticise people who buy their patriotism...

  • cool.

  • Kill The elites.. ALL OF THEM.

  • I love the faces the drummer on the bottom left is making,,totally pissed of with it all!

  • This is the least we can do as loyal freedom-loving Amurkans. While we ask our soldiers to lay their lives on the line, I will gladly make my sacrifice here at home and run the risk of one of those shoddily-manufactured ribbons scratching the paint on my Guzzler Deluxe. That's how blindly jingoistic I am, how bout you?

  • Great!Very funny!!

  • This just hits so many points. A masterpiece! :D

  • You missed the best part!  The ribbons were made in china!

  • Hilarious! Must share with friends.

  • Really good job. i enjoyed that.

  • RIGHT ON BROTHER!!!!!

  • great song, hilarious video. Spankers ROCK!

  • Right. Kind of like how all these "pro-life" folks will laugh in your face if you suggest they become vegetarian because, you know, that would allow more animals to keep their lives (which one might think these folks would be "pro").

  • Easily explained. Animals can't vote, they pay no taxes and no one has yet figured out how to use them for cannon fodder. Consequently they are fair game to be eaten, experimented upon, used, abused, you name it. Pro-lifers also support capital punishment for humans and animals alike. Perfectly consistent.

  • @BlacknWhitesAlright

    There is long strech from killing people to steal their OIL playing little hero by having ribbon on SUV to vegeterians

  • Pure unadulterated genius. I never tire of watching this. The dancing yellow ribbon is terminally cute, with great moves. Keep up the good work, guys. Do you ever come to Detroit or Ann Arbor? Would love to do a video interview if you're interested.

  • @GunClinger obviously, you hate america.

  • @GunClinger yes. you hate the first amendment. therefore, you hate america. communist.

  • @GunClunker

    FYI: YES! I do hate Kosher Controlled America--

    Have YOU noticed America is a FAILED state--we are broke due to fighting invasions for the sole purpose to PLEASE and SERVE ( Ashkenazism) Jews.

    "In the context of a criminal arrest, a detention of longer than 48 hours without a probable cause determination violates the Fourth Amendment as a matter of law " Try explaining that to a cop --I was hungry and broke

  • @geo1671 It has nothing to do with jews. Israel yes, but jews no. I agree with you but i can't support ignorance even if it's my point of veiw, this doesn't go deep enough in. And keep in mind everything is multi-causal and effectual. And don't spew shit you learned from your parents it's counter productive to educating people on these issues.

  • @landonsoccer12 -Ever read the Talimud (HEB scripture)? Here is two quotes--" Bring Jesus to us and we (JEWS) will boil him in a vat of Sperm" and Kill any Gentile (cattle to Jews) and no crime but kill a Jew a punishable death crime" So "LandonSucker" that ain't spewing shit--read it and get off the habit of being half-cocked.. You said " Israelies are bad Jews only-" Fool, Look around and see the Jewus mess USA is in--most hated country next to Israel (Devil's Rejects). Les Pisrael {:^)

  • @geo1671 The Talimud is not scripcture. Meaning it was not written by god it was written by them to help understand the word of god. And you can read hewbrew? Man i'm impressed. Because otherwise it would be obvious that was translated to say whatever the person in english wanted it to say. The same reason the new testimate claims rape is perfectly legitimet. you can't quote devil's rejects, more idiocracy. And How is killing a jew being punishable any different then killing anyone else?

  • @geo1671 A vat of sperm huh? That sounds SOO credible that I am going to go ahead and take your word for it.. but if you believe that, you may not sense the sarcasm, so let me explain to you, I was being sarcastic. Good luck in life buddy..

    Oh, and by the way, I have some swampland in Florida I will sell you on the CHEAP, pm me and we can get down to business! ;)

  • @GunClinger they are simply exercising their right to freedom of speech

  • Comment removed

  • @erebo666 lol

  • @GunClinger They're mocking American people who feign compassion for troops but don't really do anything useful for them.

  • @ResChronoNullius Thier saying you don't do enough by simply buying a yellow ribbon on your car, but people seem to think as long as they can buy one of those they can totally have the entire war off thier concience. Wake up. you're not really supporting anyone.

  • 3:48. Is that Michael Urie from Ugly Betty on the right?

  • @avatarmn nope. they are all just members of the band at the time we made the video.

  • I love it!!

  • @nothing2offer this video isn't aimed at the left or right. only hypocrites.

  • am Im just making a observation

  • @nothing2offer

    most "liberal democrats" know that an apostrophe (') does NOT belong in a plural........5th Grade English....keep watching Fox News, pal.

  • @nothing2offer

    But they don't stick ribbons on them.

  • they do..... a stupid hopey changey one

  • @nothing2offer

    If so, it's an ironic statement on the war ones. I never saw a magnetic ribbon before the Iraq War.

  • OOOOOOh Kay.... why don't you just take another seroquel and go back to bed

  • @nothing2offer

    This song isn't about the evils of bumper accessories, genius. It's about feeling hugely patriotic for doing literally the least you possibly can for the troops, while being apathetic about the war and truly not helping or even caring at all.

  • Thank goodness for you. You must write the foot notes for a living

  • @nothing2offer

    I have no idea what that means. Guess I don't speak douchebag.

  • Well maybe if you pursued an education rather than reading 3 weeks worth of comments you might actually feel better

  • 3 weeks worth of comments still appeared beneath the video without clicking for more comments. And I know what foot notes are, I just don't know what "the" foot notes are, as no one has mentioned any sort of publication.

  • Still loving it, especially the beginning :D

  • a  fuckin classic.Brilliant.

  • amazing and hilarious. i first heard this on the radio a couple days ago, does anyone know if the audio is available anywhere?

  • Great, let's look afeter ourselves, we've got enough problems.

    Great song!

  • I love this one !!!!

  • M'eh.

  • Still great to watch.......

  • lol 3:30

  • i love these folks! i wish they'd tour around philly..plus Whammo is sooo hot!

  • they played philly at World Cafe live last Wednesday.

  • great...now i feel like a big idiot...i thought i was up on all the local shows...crap.

  • They hit Pittsburgh occasionally, yuno the city that always beats the Flyers in the playoffs...

  • this is awesome.

    also find lead singer a bit hot.

  • we have to respect other religion because we are Muslims. Islam ignores us to do this foolish thongs.

    i'm proud that i'm Muslim.

  • I agree that thongs are foolish.

  • The guy playing the Iranian man is hot.

  • Even thought the whole song is funny, my favorite is definitely the beginning! ^_^

  • i like ice cream

  • me too

  • mynameischaro,

    Christina Marrs isn't bad either!

  • america is stuck like a pig is iraq

    ;

    ;

    ;

    get the fuck out of there u fucking infidels white trash red neck..before iran wipe u from the map lol

  • Get out on the street, write letters to the editor, run for office, start up an access tv show, pass out DVDs, go door to door, just f*in dont put ribbons on your freakin SUVs and call yourselves proud to be an American!!

  • those f*ers who have ribbons on their SUVs dont have f*in clue. They think being patriotic is tying yellow flags on trees, wearing yellow wrist bands, flying flags, and putting the G*darn ribbons on their SUVs. It makes them feel like they did something, like now their conscience is cleared, now they can just sit back while 1.4 million Iraqis get blown to pieces and thousands and thousands of our boys end up in body bags. They make me sick!

  • I think you are misinterpreting the message here. The ribbons are meant to show support which is AWESOME! What the Spankers are getting at is that they are putting the stickers on an SVU... a gas guzzling, hunk of economy-sucking metal. If you recall why the war is continuing, it's because of oil.

  • Yeah, well the spankers only know a piece of the agenda. It's the fascists who r about world domination & destabilization/conquest & use the US military as their iron fist @ their pleasure. This is what these ribbon bearers fail 2 understand & fail 2 actively do anything about. They sit in luxury Eddie Bauer SUVs, sucking down lattes preening about. Supporting our troops entails exposing the illegal and immoral agendas & showing how our troops r merely used as pawns in a global grand chessboard.

  • A dollar ninetythree...

  • Thanks for a GOOD time!

    It made me laugh out loud!

  • that yellow ribbon tap dancer is hot

  • Oh NO! It's EVILDOERS!!! ROTF

  • I just realized the Acronym for "Asylum Street Spankers" is

    ASS

  • hahaha.

  • why is this so good?

  • I wish they could get to the white house and do that little number... Obama would probably love it.

  • That was very entertaining and off the hook! Bravo guys!

  • seen them tonight in spartanburg sc. great show! great band!

  • This might sound a bit odd to some people, but I actually think Christina (the girl in the red dress) is pretty! Am I alone out here? :)

  • I agree...she is a hottie.

  • sorry I disagree.

  • Sonicbadazz,

    Yes, Christina Marrs is very attractive and has a LOT of sex appeal even though the dancer is better looking.

  • when the lead singer started to sing, I was surprised how good his voice was. nice job!

  • Hilarious!

  • This is great...love it!

    Keep them Hummers rollin' while the malls just keep implodin'...yeeeHa!

  • You just made my day :D

  • You are officially my favorite musical group now. I love your irreverence. You are a breath of fresh air.

    I am a minister, a healer, a mother of 4, a professional in the investments world, and a seeker of truth. You are my people!

  • lol im fighting a war huh

  • Im fighting a war.

    How about you?

  • There has to be some kind of natural selection or the species gene pool would be saturated with inferior genetics.

    But on a sincere note, i hope that you make it back ok. I don't believe you're fighting for the interests of the american people.

  • if you were paying attention the video at all you would realize that this is a cry AGAINST the lack of funding that you as a soldier are receiving. Instead of people putting money into armoring your convoy and giving you all flak jackets, people are spending money on gasoline and superfluous stickers.

    That being said, I appreciate your service, but pull your head out of your ass and stop being so quick to be offended.

  • you miss the point of this video, theQub3. It's protesting the war in Iraq!

  • I am protesting against the war every chance I get.

  • I feel so much better now. I wrote about this subject back in 2001 and 02. They said it better than I did, and even better yet, they put it to music. I love The Asylum Street Spankers because, somehow, against the odds, they all met and made some AMAZING humor and music. How are they not world famous? Kudos.

  • Lighten up righty whitey. It's just a comedy song for gosh sakes.

  • Ah, they hit a nerve, huh? It's awful, horrible, unbearable, little people like you who think that 'support the troops' means vote Republican. Supporting the troops means donating to organizations like the Purple Heart Foundation, Armor 4 Troops, and Operation Shoebox. NOT falling in line with what Limbaugh says and then hoping "prayer" will somehow miraculously help the troops as opposed to actually helping the people. Ass.

  • i also like how the lyrics grow darker w/as each phase passes.

  • great video. my favorite part would have to be the moment when the ribbon gets mad. lol

  • No we can't! lol

  • An instant Classic! Thanks for posting!

  • these guys are fucking hilarious.

  • i totally lust after Whammo! and the band kicks ass, too bad they aint gigging near philly.

  • I'm having a hard time deciding which is more awesome... this song or the lead singer's hair. Both are fantastic!

  • To lesatseaside:

    You've got a point when it comes to liberals in Hollywood, but...you think this song is about the fact that people are driving SUVs?! Nice job of completely missing the point! It's about the complacency too many Americans present in putting ribbons on their cars and claiming it somehow means they support the troops!

  • Take another look at it. Then think about it. Think HARD about it.

  • Yes, all liberals worship celebrities. /s

  • Couldn't have said it best. This vid does the job.

  • fantastic! just what we in england think about the illegal stupidity that our guys are involved in. mr bush and mr blair must be proud of what they have achieved!entertaining too!

  • Who is the yellow sticker girl? She's really cute and i've never seen her on any other spanker vids

  • Anyone who can name the exact number of wrong chords in this arrangement gets a free blow-job from Christina.

  • 56 to be exact

  • this have no political stands, its just for entertaning

  • Yes, the same thing can be said of blackface minstrel shows. While this is very entertaining, and I have seen it performed live, the issues about nationalism/partiotism and the illegal wars we are in were brought up within it and need to be addressed. The historical record must be set straight.

  • its an anti war video

  • It doesn't take a genius to recognize that the Talmudic behavior of Jews is the real cause of Anti-Semitism. While many Jews are secular & abhorrent of the Talmud, many more are orthodox or ignorant of the attitudes & the hidden agenda of Zionism. Real Muslims, Christians & Jews need to dis-associate from the Zionist Jewish enterprise and re-invent themselves as a people, recognizing how, like other peoples, they have been deceived and exploited by their so-called leaders.

  • There have been holocausts before and since WWII, many spurred on by Jewish financing. The real big money players in the slave trade (and now the current global financial enslavement that is already well under way) are Ashkenazim Europeans who claim Jewish heritage, but do NOT represent Judaism or the Jewish diaspora in any way. This is apparent in the way they have hoarded holocaust funds meant for survivors and their heirs.

  • These guys were the first ones to point out the gluttony and apapthy of anyone driving a gas guzzling car. And wow! Almost a million views!

  • My truck gets 12 mpg and proud of it.

  • You probably get the same ratio of oxygen to brain as you do gas to mpg's. I wouldn't sweat it, not everyone is lucky enough to be born competent and free-thinking. Go back to your american idol and twinkies, cowboy.

  • American Idol and twinkies? The mind (and body) is a terrible thing to waste.

  • dumbass

  • You're the one who is proud that your vehicle get's 12 mpg. Too bad you have to email me insults rather than give me an intelligent rebuttal on the thread. I guess a rational, intelligent response is too much to ask from you Brainiac. Go feed your pigs and cows and mamma will have eggs ready for you when you get done Cowboy.

  • Wow, and that is an incredibly weak attack on someone's background. Im officially offended.

    Good for you fuckstain.
