Bret is so great at fake playing the Ukelele

[Crotchboxer]

@Invaderstew301 Bret is actually a member of the Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra..I'm sure that he's "fake playing" here. But he actually knows how to play it well.

[3awsomepoeple]

u can tell he isnt really playing the coconut :O o.o i just looked at the related videos umm ok x.x

[TheGoldWatch]

adorable



[MisterWagwannifier]

Jahmain's playing a coconut with the meat still in it !!! LOL

[Xhalph]

This video has inspired me to concoct a far-fetched reason to wear a white tux.

[TheIndigobeef]

@Xhalph You don't need a reason to look amazing!

[mathibaleb]

wait..i would like to smoke sea weed

[wejamon84]

[MrNgawng]

Why was the sand wet? Because the sea weed.

[dropdeadugly100]

I bought a coconut simply to play it to this song.

[helenajesstarzak]

The lyrics by r8dkid cracked me up! J: Ah Ah... B: Ah Ah... J: Ah Ah... B: Ah Ah... B+J: Ah Ah... B: Mermaid J: Mermaid B: Mermaid J: Mermaid B: Mermaid J: Mermaid B: Mermaid J: Mermaid B+J: Mermaid Mermaid J: Mermaid B: Mermaid B: Mermaid murmured

[thavador]

[bitchslapperz]

[jhoch5]

that's what makes them so good is that both of them are genuinely good songwriters and singers, as opposed to someone like weird al

I can't believe there won't be a season three. How depressing.

[RickhatesScott]

Half a sexier fish

[TFWC88]

What a fun video

[KevKev26]

This is just an awesome song, I prefer the live version as it's longer and slower, but a shorter more fast paced tempo one is just as amazing.

Flight of the Conchords are just Win (Y)

[biskpinch]

[ExoFish]

[biskpinch]

@ExoFish i know. i just couldnt remember his name.

QUESTION-  Do mermaid vaginas smell like people?

[TheOblivionAdict]

[Stirrethcharybdis]

Reminds me of Bill Murray's old lounge singer joke on snl

[7000uhuh]

Brett smokes seaweed

[XxFooFightinxX]

"aah aah aah aah

waii-yah, waii-yahhh

aah aah aah aah

ooh ah ooh ooh ooh ah ooh ooh"

Me and my friends started walking down the beach singing this, and then these random guys starting singing too - we felt like we were in some awesome club that no one else knew about. the other people on the beach just thought we retards.

[chodestra]

Just amazing. These guys and Tenacious D manage to be hilarious, musically talented, and badass all in one. My band Chodestra tries to do the same thing, but we accept that we're definitely not as good as them. You should check us out if you like them though.

[Imaloveyou100]

Lmao I love these ghuys!!!!!! There so funny lmao

[TheMrDawn]

fotc meets stephen lynch who make a band with the lonely island! =D

[Thelackofpizza]

Half a sexy fish....

[nanzioboy]

[streetmessiah]

[sheekbandgeek]

[JsAMONSTA]

@songbirdsinherhair pretty sure he said "fishy half" but knock yourself out

[snapefanno1]

[Calypsoemma]

[twilighter3000]

Jemaine is banging two coconuts together! hahahaha! amazing!

[aNdReSkKkK]

[7hlfstpsupjeeohn]

Even though I don't think this song was their funniest, it's still stupidly good.

[Calypsoemma]

JEMAIN!

[niamhigee]

lol... are you the optical illusion caused by a lady sitting on a rock holding a fish!!?

[CosmicShadowMari0]

HE'S GOT TO COCONUTS AND HE'S BANGIN' EM TOGETHER! to me, that's a monty python reference.

[Sushiloversoph]

or are you an optical illusion

caused by a woman

sitting on a rock

[theGIN]

[korrv123]

mermaid murrmurr into my ear

[DBowie1983]

I need to buy a uklelee (how ever you spell it) now!!!

[soldierdude798]

[CrtlAltDeleted]

[whatdiditube]

Brett always plays C- sharps :D

[lifechanged1]

hahahaha

[PJHoutman]

Half a sexyyyy fish. Speaking of sexy fish, that mermaid in the tub is pretty hot.

[MrStevenc1]

@PJHoutman both mermaids are pretty damn hot man :P

[DrPoon]

Awesome.

These guys blow Lonely Island out of the water.

[theforsakenpiggies]

The Lonely island is LAME.

fotc forever.

[mejfletch]

@DrPoon lonely who?

[DrPoon]

@mejfletch

thumbs up for you!

[mejfletch]

@DrPoon ta very much

[DemonicSympathy]

@DrPoon Was that perhaps a witty joke about mermaids and the ocean? Or being on a boat?

[garnerisadouche]

@DrPoon thats a big call. lonely island are alot less politically correct, they are like the "drawn together" cartoon where flight of the concords ar like "family guy". i enjoy both though. although i am aussie so i am focred by law to like the concords more lol

[DrPoon]

@garnerisadouche

I completely disagree with you. In fact, I don't think politics has anything to do with this conversation. I don't care to either.

Have a good day.

[Phil0185]

@garnerisadouche I wouldn't relate family guy to FOTC though, family guy seems to have a recurring system for their jokes set up while FOTC is incredibly creative

[nick30893]

Half a sexy fish

[hallospacegirl]

I know that this is a cliché comment, but I want what these guys smoke (seaweed?).

[streetmessiah]

[asbjoernh]

[HisMajestyJahoosa]

AAaahhHHHAAA Half a SeeeXXyy FIiiiSSSHH!!

[lordzhuge]

me and some friends walked into college one day in a line clicking our fingers singing "mermaid........mermaid...etc"­. We felt like gods.

[fiervahl]

@lordzhuge You -were- gods.

[lordzhuge]

@fiervah For that day yes, I guess we were. Thank god for FOTC

[woody1445]

@lordzhuge thats pretty much the coolest thing ive ever heard

[xxlurkingkittyxx]

Lol, Bret has a special way of playing that ukulele. :P

[SeanByNature]

@xxlurkingkittyxx

Yeah, it's called being dubbed.

[xxlurkingkittyxx]

No, it's called sarcasm.

;)

[heeropat]

are you seggesting coccon nuts migreat sorry i had to put that lol

[daithi08]

"Do you long for the sound of the land" classic

[RedRoseSpeedway09]

"... Am I invited?"

hahaha I love Jemaine's voice

[tamaalam]

brilliant

[completeidiot]

I think those are the questions we've all been asking. In our hearts.

[kingovstyyyle]

murrrrmaiiid..

[johnph96]

i like there tuxedos... lol

[Kurama024]

smoke seaweed made me lol

[Phenom838]

"in that case how do you light it?"

great question, and great song.

[heeropat]

the bullet crab it cause spaerks

[Phenom838]

Sure, I'll buy that...

maybe an electric eel?

[heeropat]

lol but know do know what a bullet crab is ???

[TheUnicornsToldMeTo]

But we must remember that it tends to be quite damp under the sea. Getting anything to light might be a smidge difficult. But I'd go with the electric eel on the first try.

this is just one of their best songs ever! and the crazy thing is, e
