[BlackWolf4830]

[bajachicken]

[kitterkat007]

Love electric six. Check out my video of granpa shuffling to E6

[FreemanNGT]

Freaking LOVE this! Period

[pantheon777]

I think David Icke directed this video!

[pantheon777]

I think David Icke directed this movie!

[96bbennett]

this is my uncles old band. i tease him about his video gay bar , its the funniest thing in the world :D

[sjm1785]

Per wiki--"Dick Valentine has estimated that "90 percent of our songs, maybe even higher than 90 percent" are "about absolutely nothing."" I love it lol

[gui123dias]

i am currently emailing electric six about the masks, if i get a response, i'll post it here!!!

[howley92]

i think i may have found my new desktop wallpaper with the thumbnail for this vid..

[lorddayman88]

Michael Jackson!

[Tetrianis]

Dr. Who vs Mr. Clean?? ...ya' gotta love it.

[appleofmypie]

I fucking love Dick :L

(Valentine, of course)

[lovleyxme]

3:40 Hello, Michael!

[TehSporkBandit]

this makes me want a t-rex mask

[DracoGreenburg]

I wonder why they were kidnapped. Maybe they caught Dick selling drugs. He did always go around saying "I buy the drugs”. Good thing they know the "Chocolate pope" or else they would be in a "Clusterfuck". Still I think "There's something wrong with us" for not helping them. But as long as there’s not a "Body shot" it should be OK and we all can get "Down at McDonnelzzz",but not the on 4th street that one’s a "Gay bar".

[sammansonlove]

Electric Six cleaning up Detroit. :)

[000045josh]

2:56=epic.

[gbrippers]

16 people dont clean their kitchens

[area149]

@gbrippers Man, thanks for making another joke about the dislikes, something like that has never been said before.

[bethanyripley11]

@area149 you obviously have a dirty kitchen.

[area149]

@bethanyripley11 Judging by your name, you probably need to get back in one

[bethanyripley11]

@area149 Judging by that comment, you need to go back to school to learn how to phrase sentences properly.

[area149]

@bethanyripley11 It's not my fault your a dumb bitch, that sentence is correct in all grammatical ways.

[UnusedBEAR]

@area149 *you're

Sorry, but when talking about grammar, that makes you look kinda like a fool.

[bethanyripley11]

@area149 wow, you also need to go back to school to learn to read, i never said it was grammatically incorrect.

[area149]

@bethanyripley11 >"Phrase sentences properly"

>Grammar

[bethanyripley11]

@area149 go have a poo

[Linuxhax]

Where can I get a raptor mask!?!?!?!?!

[setto53770]

Why the fuck don't E6 get more credit for their fantastic songs?

Oh, it's because most people don't know how to ROCK.

[ricktofer]

@setto53770 that's what I'm sayin'...

[LionmaneElsie08]

awesomely different video, as always : D

[DracoGreenburg]

Is it weird that when i watch this i never question the dinosaur mask and just wanted to know where to get one

[greatclams]

@DracoGreenburg Wow. You are SO COOL. You must be right unique to not be surprised by something weird happening in a music video! When I grow up I hope to be as unphased by the vaguely curious as you are, oh prince of men. I would gladly polish your nards you sweet sexy bastion of love. I'm so violently aroused by your composure in the face of dinosaur masks, I can even overlook your lack of a question mark at the end of your questions. Take me now you calm collected sex pot. you ARE James Dean.

[DracoGreenburg]

@greatclams I would be mad if what you said was not so funny

[greatclams]

@DracoGreenburg Happy to teach and to entertain. Yessir, I sure am great.

[DracoGreenburg]

@greatclams Yes. Yes you are (this is the nices flam war ever)

[Superassfire]

This actually happens.

[ObeseChess]

I never cease to be both incredibly frightened and mildly aroused by Dick Valentine.

[Goma2]

Reptilians are real

[accolyteofchaos]

Horrible Joke: this video was full of dick heads.

[AyrtonTV]

Thumbs up for the Gay Power Rangers xD

[Talus83]

If I knew that kitchen cleaners could make me trip balls I'd have been chugging them a long time ago.

[RomZomCom]

@dawnsfistandfriends

Who didn't?

[nikkisixxual]

Our lord is a Carnivorous Lord, and he's coming back to fossilize our meandering lives.

[TheHellraiserHoss]

@Axe12389

Back in the day, I think people lined up for that. I know quite a few that would now... lol

[Bearwiffa228]

@TheHellraiserHoss Quite a few is almost an understatement :D!

[jj5249]

I hate when that happens to me while I am out and about.

[Axe12389]

This must be how they tested acid back in the day.........

[PhrkOnLsh]

Of all the people in the world, I figured Dick would be the most ready for Velociraptors. Guess I was wrong and he doesnt read XKCD :(

[Reglanif]

0:49 Best. Chase. EVER.

[campex]

1:51 is my desktop picture

[TheGenstapo]

[TheGenstapo]

[blackcheesyghoul]

[CherokeeJohnny6]

You know what this says to me? INCEPTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kloppeder100]

@CherokeeJohnny6 Well. To find the proof we have to go deeper.

[Gimmeclockworking]

1:58 i'd like another hit

[marlboromike2100]

16 people are slobs, and don't like to clean with 409

[Vampr3ach3r]

You can press the number 0 baby

Restarts the video every time

[superchevreuil12]

16 persons have dirty kitchens...

[McKasprowicz]

BEWARE !!!! raptors can turn you into the cleaning sleves !!!!

[jackattack06]

@McKasprowicz I want some cleaning sleves! whatever they are.

[VictorVonFox]

1:24 i just saw MJ O.O

[ilovejackandmeg]

1:24 ... is that Jack White with a Jack White mask on??? That'd be something they'd do. hahaha

[kkkY11111]

Electric 6 are sexyyy

[KaiIkitsuky]

15 people dont use formula 409 in their kitchens

[JuglarEuskaldun]

What's this song about?

[theloserof08]

@JuglarEuskaldun Raptors kidnapping random male pedestrians to make them test subjects to become the greatest gay cleaners the world has ever seen. Really easy to follow.

[simxslashsimon]

formula 409 = fart a lot, fart all night

[i8religion]

Dick Valentine is a great man and all their viedos are greattttttt!

[sparksza1]

@i8religion and you have consumed religion, leaving only a personal connection with god.

[StarBreatherTheMad1]

The Fuck did i just watch?

[grapplinger123]

@StarBreatherTheMad1

just one vid of the best band ever ;D

[hymnofashes]

@StarBreatherTheMad1 You just watched five motherfuckers get brainwashed into flamboyant cleaners-of-everything-in-sigh­t.

[AwesomeKingRex]

AH! i have a dinosaurus rex mask like that!!!!!

[grapplinger123]

@AwesomeKingRex

[IIrudeBOYEII]

Dick Valentine....what a hunk

[pfiberoptik]

Have to kill all the roaches first before you can 409.

[kraeckelium]

kok mi sok

[haribo687]

Dick Valentine: what a man

[RockenGangster]

im drivin my car to pieces :p

[ctc814]

431 babies cant clean their kitchen

[CaptainFagg]

I can only imagine what it would of been like to drive down the street past that video shoot, and see what would appear to be a gaggle of gay men cleaning everything in sight.

[scockery]

@CaptainFagg In Detroit that wouldn't even get a second glance.

[Talus83]

@CaptainFagg

They were all pretty fabulous towards the end of of it and I love that mindfuck they much has given.

[narleynina]

I think that nurse might be their merch girl.

[JadeAegis]

@narleynina

I noticed this too, and a couple months ago when I saw E6 live on the Heartbeats tour I took the opportunity to ask Vortex myself - that is in fact her playing the nurse. They really got everyone involved on this one - such a shame they stopped making official videos. In fact I think this might be the last video they made? (As I'm aware of no others off of Flashy and none whatsoever from Kill, Zodiac, or Heartbeats) At least, it's one hell of a finale.

[NoFearNoFlame]

@JadeAegis they made a very NSFW video for Bodyshot, which is their last one.

[JadeAegis]

@NoFearNoFlame

You know, I've seen that one but I always forget about it ... Defense mechanism? Maybe.

[maxcaviar]

what's with the red skin around your yap? beard glue?

[arnolddrummer]

best ever!

[pantheon777]

This is what happens when bands don't obey the illuminati program of corrupting our youth.

[Nijjar916]

LEGENDARY VIDEO 

[lazycolbert]

hoy shit thats werse than a ball tap

[Bunzypoo]

He may need some dental work. lol

[maxcaviar]

@Bunzypoo

only if he is a girly metrosexual flit

[Kykleply]

In other news, I love the way they are running at 2:23

[windmil080680]

Always the highest budget videos from Electric Six. *loves it*

[RKM52925]

Seeing them in Phoenix in October!

[NDW58]

I dont know what to say.

[ZACKnirvana]

more views!!!! come on this has badass written all over it!

[hawkman10]

Way too cool! I love songs with hidden meanings ;)

[ZACKnirvana]

@hawkman10 what is the hidden meaning?

[Kykleply]

@ZACKnirvana

Formula 409 is actually about how Politicians and most rich people use money/pointless wars/Tax cuts in an attempt to cover up or divert attention away from a different problem.

[maxcaviar]

@Kykleply

i know, don't you despise democrats? seeeeee yoooooooou . . . in november.

[mrlucky777]

if Tom Jones made a commercial for a cleaner,this would be it.

[DoublePrimo44004]

That dog thought his naughty bits were kibbles and bits.

[BeastElectric]

I always think of this video as some kind of bizarre form of cleaning product's commercial xD

[skyzefawlun]

lol@ 3:48 when the dog punched him in the cock! I fucking rofled.

Love this song and video.

[Lovettfox]

And this is why you don't do drugs....

[Zhenrel]

Electric crotch @ 3:43!

[xtermin8ter1]

michael jackson mask

[marriedtometal]

I'll be seeing these guys live in December. I hope they're as entertaining live as their videos and lyrics are!

[winkie140]

this.is.amazing....... and stangely enough makes me want to clean my kitchen...

[InvadorGrim]

I had to search what formula 409 is. I was dissapointed, i thought it would something cool like LSD or something, which would explain the trippy raptors and rainbows. but its actually a cleaning product. Still an awesome video and song though.

[BeastElectric]

@InvadorGrim Lol yeah it's a cleaning product, the lyrics say it clearly:

"You can use a little Mr Clean or Formula 409" xD

I guess that acid trip is caused by inhaling too much of Formula 409's vapor (The same happened when Homer Simpson used Mr Clean in his basement, with no ventilation).

[anti1999]

@InvadorGrim it's like acid if you drink or small it

[12connection]

@InvadorGrim lol me too now it makes it even more funnyer

[dele3344]

Dick Valentine has an epic fucking chin.

[campex]

@dele3344 Reminds me of the simpsons "Are you wearing chin putty? Is that a fake nose?"

[LeshaAnn]

Nooo, the Reptilian Overlords have arrived--Someone call David Icke! Quick!!!

[Schwartzhund]

Funkalicious, nuf said.

[coolness317]

OH NICE! WINDSOR!!!!!

[TrousersAroused]

is it just me, or are they watching Top Gun at one point?

[the1andonlyjman]

@TrousersAroused I thought it was the video for synthesizer

[dakota7227]

I love playing this song on guitar since i found the tabs it's so fun =[] This song pwns I love electric six =]

[Laserp0rn]

It would have hurt Dick, sure. But his genitals are invulnerable!

[cpdaddy7]

life is good

[bandit787]

check out my channel for more electric six awesomeness

[sparksthorp]

this is such a fun band

[tman2tuff]

man, the intro was recorded in my city

[GlennnD]

@tman2tuff and where is it filmed ?

[chr15t11an]

what's going oooonnnnnnn?!!!

[eegester]

@chr15t11an

I remember reading a comment a long time ago that the video was supposed to be about the 80s when the CIA kidnapped a bunch of people and tested drugs on them.

[arnolddrummer]

best music video haha

[63FreireDragon]

Dope track

[frederickbabyyeah]

HAHAH love the guy who gets in tthe van casualy XD

[JMkroeze]

this has some uncanny resemblances to the 'curing gayness' clinic trails, like the video clip on the television and the treated LSD medication...

[Fawful5]

Never did think I'd see a velociraptor play the saxophone.

[jmb817]

So did anyone else come here from the TV Tropes Ear Worm page like I did?

[RomZomCom]

@jmb817

I put it there, actually.

[iGeauxable]

"You can use a little Mr. Clean or Formula 409!"

[MONSTATRUKK]

RAPTOR JESUS

[kgkologlu]

3:20 - 3:32 !!! I love that dick!..

[krazyhippy]

That is a great song. The ending i love!!!!

[Mamonar]

Wow, that sure is a lot of philosoraptors....

[lpris]

Velociraptors you mean?

[MONSTATRUKK]

no philosophical raptors philosoraptors

[lpris]

Those sound scary...

[dragons2k100]

confised

[revelwoodie]

It's the Lizard People! It's all true!

[lemonhead123ify]

i swear the just dropping acid tabs in there mouths.... lololololol

[benebrius]

nah...you can't get acid over their.

[tnekrensorb]

i really want a raptor head mask like that now lol

[pantheon777]

Ah, the true faceof the MIBs.

[Laserp0rn]

Huzzah! The video is up again!

I still wanna know why it took so long, considering this was made well after they were under any WMG subsidiary.

[RomZomCom]

Fuckers are still cockblocking KILL, though.

[realpillboxer]

Good to see some Detroit scenery living in other states now. Only show I saw of theirs I didn't know any words but it was still a huge fucking blast.

[words2bheard]

holy crap did that dog just try to bite dick valentines crotch!?! close call

[wrarwimadragon]

@words2bheard It's okay, he has plenty

[MYxLOVExOFxBEER]

@words2bheard I thought they were trying to eat his bitch tits?

[sillychops]

@words2bheard  tryin to take away his power

[anonymous0s0egion]

Lol, i got some blotter atm, maybe I'll drop some now :D

[FreedomFINICIO]

I saw them live last week, they were amazing :D

[theman0019]

Dick Valentine said in an interview once that the band wasn't built for the long haul so they had to make changes.

[raukt]

Kinda sad that the only original band member here is Dick Valentine.

[WCCUBE666]

In a way, yes.

And in a way, no.

I have NEVER been disappointing with anything Electric 6 has produced.

And by having so many members, the sound has had DRASTIC changes over the years, yet the all were just...splendid.

The large assortment of members has led to a wonderful compilation of diverse sounds, yet they all work together wonderfully when jumbled and put on one play list.

But Valentine better not ever fucking leave.

[WCCUBE666]

Er....See below.

[RomZomCom]

Valentine leaving would be pretty much the end of E6, since he's the only one running the show.

Also, I don't like KILL compared to Flashy, but that's off the point.

[cathalc08]

yeah but if you think about it:

Tait has been there from the Fire days

The Colonel and Na$hinal joined soon after

and theres only been one drummer change which was before Switzerland so these 5 played on 4 out of 6 albums collectively

as for the bass players, thats a different story

[Keldorah]

Also this video involves the conspiracy that the Raptors are secret rulers of the world. Yes, there is that conspiracy theory, look it up :D

[dakota7227]

And this is why the world is fun when there are conspiracy theories like this ^^,

[KidRobot]

This is a spoof of the MKULTRA project, where the CIA dosed random people with LSD as a study in mind control.

[campex2]

haha man, I can't help but laugh at Dick's hilarious face in any video, let alone 1:51

[youradhereraves]

is he being bit by a dog at 3:48 ?

[nonsence117]

its about being fucking awsome with electric six!!!!! its also a vid about a day in the life of dick valentine and the rest of the ladz... yea...

[RuKuLuke]

Woo, Ibanez Icemen ftw.

[Talus83]

Holy Stephen Colbert hes gotta be a fan then.
