You know, as a life long fan, and student of Carlin's work and words, I think this video nails exactly what he was talking about with his 'Modern Man' bit. The guy in the video is a clear example of a corporate, businessman c@#ksucker, exactly who George was talking about in the bit. I think George would've liked this video, I really do. I think he would've felt the rhythym of his delivery was lost, for sure, but the point he intended to get across is presented well. Good job.
If you're going to 'try and think' what Carlin would've said. My two cents are.
"Are they using my stuff to make political points? Raise money for something I don't like? No? Fuck it, more people watching my stuff! And hey! If it's bad people will watch the original if it's good people will think I'm funnier then I am!"
That man is a fucking comedian and was a chilled out cat, try relaxing and just eating a bit of his humble pie, get worked up over important stuff.
I always felt there is just a tiiiiny bit of sarcasm in Carlin's little monologue... so the video suits.
I don't get these dickless twats... it baffles me that you have apparent 'FANS' of a man who tried to inject fun into anything into life and believed in not getting stressed out about shit you can't do anything at all.
Reading the comments I was laughing at these fans being the people Carlin ripped on constantly.
I expected the odd insult, this IS youtube, the green room for Jerry Springer after all.
The amount and things said?
Get off your high horse and go watch George Carlin talking about his life, his views. Clearly you're not enough of a fan of his long history of work to get it.
This is one of the few cases of someone both putting work in and not riding someone else's fame.
OMG...This is GREAT! I wasn't sure what to expect with the hotel cam (CCTV) But as I kept watching.....the briefcase busted open...I burst into laughter!!!! I haven't done that in six months!!! Thank-you.....BTW, I bet if that was in Vegas that guy got is kidneys kicked out of him.
Simonbell, you've managed to score big points and if at all possible made the already fail-free George Carlin even better in this spesific case.
you know, only moments before i saw your video response i actually thought to myself: "this is carlin at his best and i wonder how this would sound with music or beeing autotuned like Carl Sagan" and voila here you come and give a solid addition to an already strong contender
fantastic, such a simple beat and keeping Carlin's original pacing was a great touch. It brings up the intensity without letting you forget the genius of the man himself. I only with there were a d/l link so I could enjoy this any time.

Man, people commenting on this video are sure weird)) Stop going all whiny about how it somehow ruined something and such, are you fucking idiots?) It's just a creative tribute to a glorious performance, and you guys treat it as a damned insult to Carlin for some reason. That's just stupid)
It's just an individual vision, and I kinda see what you were going for in the vid and enjoyed it for what it is)) Though imo you gave it a lot darker feel than it should've had, but that's just me =)
simonbellmusic has no clue as to what/who Carlin is. He changed our thinking process. Thoughts that simonbell never had. You ,simonbel are 17 if a day. That concludes the stupidity. 20 more years and you just may comprehend. I sincerely doubt that you could possibly comprehend anything.
@parisel313 Dude, I wish I WAS 17...unfortunately, my teenage years are long behind me. I'm fully aware of Carlin & his work, I just wanted to put a little beat behind "Modern Man". But I see you favourited the video, so I guess it can't be all bad. Thanks for watching!
@parisel313 You don't have to be old to comprehend Carlin's work. I'm 15 and I understand the point of this. I actually tried to get my parents to put the "Proud parents of a child who has resisted his teacher's attempts to break his spirit and bend him to the will of his corporate masters" bumper sticker on the car, but they wouldn't do it.
Honestly, this isn't a bad idea, i love the idea in fact. However, the implementation of this idea on your part was REALLY disappointing. Please try again
@ABCDskate Hahaha..big words from a little boy...little skateboarding geek! Are you actually old enough to watch George Carlin? I just checked out your profile, I see you just commented on some other videos..each one of them you put something like "Homo"..I think you need to get over your obsession and come out of the closet dude! Thanks for watching anyway. I'll watch out for that Freight train!
the added sound is a bit slow for me, but aside from that...how did u take out the laughter from his...show? and aside from that, not half bad, i guess
for the love of views wtf is this you took one of the most serious prophets of our time and put a silly electro spin on him you dick simonbell is a bell !!
@kb92530 Thanks man, glad you enjoyed it. Not sure what's "Electro" about it, but ok. I just checked out your channel, and if that's the kind of shit you add as favourites, then I'm glad you're not a fan! Enjoy the wrestling videos Mr "29 year-old".
@simonbellmusic haha im not 29 and yh electro wtf didnt know what type of gay music it was hope you do well in what you do but carlin should stay untouched in all his glory. peace !
@kb92530 chill out you fag dont take everything so fuckin serious after all george carlin was a fuckin comedian slash philosapher not a fuckin prophet you fuckin idiot
@NebunLaCap hahaha when will the dumbness end ! i think prophet not philosopher u dick you tell me what a philosopher is then tell me what a prophet is google it or some shit u dumbass lol why am i gay aswell whats that all about
Great job! Think most people don't get your point with this video. You aren't trying to make a funny video, but a interpretacion of George Carlins "speech" of the modern man, the other video portraits this very well. 5 stars and a (y)
I disagree. It's supposed to add emphasize to the entire speech, not stand out as its own achievement. I think that with the backtrack it'll stick to my memory far better than the speech alone. Don't knock this without reason, and if anything else, I don't think Carlin would've appreciated you putting words into his mouth. You're on Youtube, one of the biggest wastes of time out there. It's a waste of time to tell someone else they're doing the same here. I know I'm done wasting mine.
Fuckin' AWSOME!!!
