  • Haha TROMBONER!

  • "guitar solo!" *trombonist starts soloing*

  • This is a cover of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones "The Impression That I Get", thumbs up so people can see.

  • @gasmaskboi19371945 uhm... no it isn't

  • @TheEB95 Not the whole song, just some of the horn parts.

  • @gasmaskboi19371945 no its not, it mentions it. but its not really a cover

  • @brayanb91746 No the pre-chorus is I think.

  • Why can't they make videos for Vanilla Ska or M-M-M My Fedora?

  • As a Ska Enthusiast I find this freaking hilarious, but I love the brass always

  • i hit the dislike button because of the advertisement

  • I just love the moment between 0:50 to 0:60 where the brass is so good at the same time as he's trying to sing =)

  • I wish there was a serious ska song that sounded like this. It's actually a good song :p

  • por suerte el ska no va a estar de moda..tiene historia

  • SKANK RIGHT GODDAMMIT!

    Also, you just combined The Bosstones with Streetlight's horn section.

  • I like this song, but the lack of actual skanking in this bothers me....

  • This reminds me of the Stan Freberg parody of Yellow Rose of Texas, only with ska music instead of Mitch Miller and a Big Ass Horn Section instead of a really loud drummer! Glad to see someone brought this style of humor back! I love it!!!

  • Okay, the song is actually good. But nobody in this song is fucking skanking. And most of the people look like posers.

  • @TheSketchBat Maybe they didn't mean it.

  • makes me want to listen to reel big fish :D

  • great song ...needs more upstrokes though.

  • Regular Ska listeners from my understanding like this song and as a regular ska listener Im pretty sure everyone knows where im going with this....

  • Chain Wallets

    

  • Jerk

  • They need to skank better. They suck.

  • I remember the days of chain wallets.

  • call your step dad so he knows your safe xD

  • No bassist, of course.

  • My friend noticed that I like ska, so she showed this to me trying to troll me. I liked it. TROLL DENIED.

  • Jake is the most unenthusiastic ska guitarist ever.

  • Butt hurt ska fans got upset and disliked the vid. Wow, my view of ska just worstened.

  • @AkilZodiac Worstened.

  • @tanzten It's a word. Take an english class.

  • @AkilZodiac It's spelled "worsened". Clearly, you failed yours.

  • @droxursox319 Mr. Internet tough guy ripping on other people's spelling mistakes. Good work.

  • @AkilZodiac Tough girl, actually ;) but why, thank you.

  • I used to skank, but then I took an arrow to the knee...

  • this is funny as fuck!

  • Katzenjamer

  • ska is awesome... end of story

  • What's with the dislikes? This video is fucking funny dude, plus it's the truth.

  • if this was a instrumental and they made it a real song theyd be the new rbf

    and is it me or in the early 20 seconds when he's walking down the sidewalk does that remind u of bid d and the kids table for shine on?

  • So "Ska" is just "Brass music for hipster douchebags".

  • @murmeldyret Fuck off! Ska is awesome!

  • @cjmorton91 Yeah. Brass instruments are awesome and the music they produce is awesome. Taking that and putting it as the music of your pop song and pretending it's something new entirely is just stupid :>

  • @murmeldyret Ska is not new AT ALL! I believe the first ska was in the 50sish in Jamaica. Then there was 2 tone which was huge in the 80s and third wave was huge in the 90s. Nothing new or hipster about ska!

  • If by hipster douchbags you mean Punks and Rude Boys then. . . Yes?

  • It's funny because it's true.

  • Anybody knows where to get the mp3 of this song?! thank you!

  • Lol at the random Mighty Bosstones line :)

  • @Dragon5n This whole song is based off the bosstones, not really random. . .

  • i just really love this song haha

  • I use to watch this cuz its funy

    now i watch it because it's a good song xD

  • @xRetroismx haha same except ive listended to it from teh start cuz its ska

  • funny how the "skankers" in the video suck so bad at their attempt at it...

  • @bglad4life There's no such thing as skanking bad.

  • Dont know about u guys, but I like the sound of this Ska.. Is real cool.. Sounds like Less Than Jake, Reel Big Fish, etc.. Of Course in the first part, not the joking ones..

    I like it.

  • wow, I actually have a chain wallet, fedora, and plaid shorts...

  • GUITAR SOLO! -When it's about to happen, he gets interrupted- GODDAMN IT!!!

  • there is absolutely no such thing as too much brass, and why is there a saxophone? xDDD

  • @fr0z3nb0n3s If you think that a saxophone is weird you have definently never listened to Streetlight Manifesto! In fact I think they have two. Check out Everything Went Numb.

  • @fr0z3nb0n3s cause saxophones are in lots of ska

  • @fr0z3nb0n3s About half the existing ska bands have saxes. Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Less than jake, Reel big fish does now, and had one when they first formed, Streretlight manifesto, catch 22, bandits of the acoustic revolution, big D and the kids table, one cool guy, the planet smashers, the toasters, the specials, the skatalites, etc..

    in fact i've see less ska bands without a sax than with one.

  • Implying Less Than Jake is even ska anymore, my girlfriend got me to go to fucking warped tour for them and they we're basically simple plan T_T

    At least I got to see Foxy Shazam <3

  • hahaahahahaha

  • Oh Patrick Castles. How I love you.

  • love ska but this is fucking tooooo much gay!

  • I like my RE5 chain wallet lol.

  • It's pretty clear this is a loving parody of Ska, and a pretty accurate one at that!

  • MOAR SKA, PLEASE!!!

  • "...it's the impression that I get"

    Lol'd

  • real good song!...Oi! :D 

  • This had actually gotten me hooked on ska for a while..

  • There needs to be a completed version of this!

  • Hey, It's Brooklyn Bowl!

  • I know this is a parody but it's actually a really good song

  • I love that guy in the purple who doesn't know how to hold a trumpet properly.

  • @Whovian42 You can hold a valveless trumpet pretty much any way you want.

  • @skankinrich I believe its called a bugle.

  • proud to be from gainesville rock city, if yall know what i mean

  • @devildogLS There's been boarders and boundaries around that area

  • 4. should surely read 'Fedodos'?

  • Chain Wallets!

  • lol

  • ... Thats the impresson that i get...

  • there are never too many ska horns!

  • what's with the guy in the corn suit?

  • @r0b0tj0n3s

    Maybe a reference to Fry Boy from Sell Out by Reel Big Fish

  • this is proof that if you try to parody ska, you will end up with ska.

  • This is so ska that make me shit myself. So happy I found this. And as a trumpet player in a ska band this is perfect

  • I feel disappointed in myself that I only just found this and that is has so many dislikes :(

  • he can't hande the power of the horns! :D

  • whats the name of this band?

  • I skank to this. :P. This parody is a success.

  • pause at 0:14 for setlist

    

  • It's the impressions that I get... Bosstones... anyone?! :D

  • I watch this every week or so... and each time i know more about ska. Each time i watch this it gets funnier! xD the more you know, the funnier it is

  • damn i want this pants !

  • The fact that Pat likes ska makes me even more attracted to him...

  • @TheTypoGoddess I know!!! Pat is the best one in the office by far.

  • Its 2 in the morning and people are sleeping... But the vuvuzela and Didgeridoo made me lmfao.

  • I was skankin so fcking hard to this one :)

  • reel big fish - sell out

  • whats the name of this band?

  • I smell a fourth wave coming on.

  • @DrArlo 4th wave is streetlight manifesto.

  • LMAO it's great that even Ska fans can enjoy the joke :)

  • Hehe I'm a huge skafan and I like it big time. But that's because I'm a bit tired of the punkska 3rd wavey high school teenage crap.

  • @grotewobbo lol thats my childhood there I mean raw 2 tone is always gonna be my favorite but I love third waves swag

  • @TheBoBWIlliby Well I came into the scene with RBF, Bosstones, Sublime etc. But nowadays Im leaning more towards bands like the Slackers, Tokyo Ska Paradise and Ska Cubano. Like most of the female fronted skapunk bands from Japan though.

  • @grotewobbo lol didn't even know Japan did ska lol

  • @TheBoBWIlliby Well certainly check out Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra. They are here since the 80's and definitly one of the best livebands around. They are mostly instrumental but the songs with vocals are crap anyhoo.

  • Lol. Seems to me like this had the opposite effect they intended

  • Funny stuff but check out "barney fyfe" for some hot ska action on i-Tunes and on You Tube.

  • SKANK WHENEVER WHENEVER!!!!

  • 3rd wave ska isnt as good as 1st and 2nd

  • THIS IS FANTASTIC! I love Ska!

  • i ALWAYS mean it when i skank.

  • hilarious.BTW,check a Ukrainian band called Perkalaba,they do some pretty sharp ska tunes.

  • @sheshdd From what I've heard so far, they're awesome!

  • @mp2611 glad you dig them man,i usually don't recomment this type of bands,but Perkalaba are superb.regards.

  • 1:09, that's definately not what a trumpet sounds like... just saying

  • go make funb of some serious bad music

    ans that list is not true i don't wear any of those things still i love ska till death :D

  • is that merton?

  • xDD ending priceless XD

  • I don't get it, this is a normal ska song ?

  • i hate ska music

  • @vzsozs they shud kill u :D

  • @vzsozs dann hör doch weiter deine drcks house und hiphop musik du dummer pisser. cheers n Oi! to the skafans

  • holy shit that sucks!

  • I don't see Pat's plaid shorts...

  • I hate how at 1:09 it shows a trumpet when it's clearly a trombone playing

  • it's not a bad song....

  • I love this song cause my favorite part of Ska music is the horns!! <3

  • Horns dominate

  • I like the allusions of 'pick it up, pick it up,' and 'its the impression that I get,' thrown in there.

  • OMG THE IMPRESSION THAT I HAD BY THE MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES! I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!! THANK YOU FOR COVERING IT PAT!!!!!!! THIS WAS SO AWESOME! :DDDDDDDDD <3333333

  • I still want Reel Big Fish to cover this. My life won't be complete until it happens.

  • I'm pretty positive that saxophone is a reed instrument not brass I play the tuba by the way and it's almost impossible to play it standing up. good video though!

  • @TheClaireMonkey well a sax is made of brass so its considered brass thats why they have them in brass bands and is also a woodwind because of the reed so i guess it goes both ways hehehe. i also play tuba and other brass instruments

  • @bloodyautopsy7 Bullshit.

    Take it from a BRASS BAND player, there are NO saxes in a brass band...

  • @BandGeekBarclay well maybe not that much anymore but in the days of the early brass bands they did have saxes.

  • @TheClaireMonkey Tuba ain't impossible to play standing up...I know a tiny wee girl who plays it standing up...

  • Fedoras. All we respect from the 50s anymore.

  • lol that was just the right amount of horns... could use a few more lololol ^_^

  • this is my all time favourite college humour video, and ive only just found it

  • It feels like i'm back at the world cup again =)

  • @eightday bullshit! you need bass for ska

  • hmm pretty good:) I love Ska!

    Never heard this song/band

  • Lol I guess having fun at shows is a bad thing. And It is pretty stereotypical ska that the third wave created. But way more fun than a lot of other genres.

  • What's the nam of the band ?

  • Not even enough horns.

    ~~Skatastic~~

  • I like the part when the horns come in....

  • Itunes please?

  • Being a punk, I loved this video very much. I think it's just hilarious

  • la verdad q esta buen apero la caga el cantante terrible pelotudo

  • at least twice a week, i take a boom box to school, blast ska, and start a skank pit. And trust me we skank like we mean it xD

  • Tomska made me come here and search a few ska music. :P

  • lol, funniest shit ever! I personally love ska, I don't think I could live without it, but I dig the parody.

  • i love ska and i love this video. successful parody is successful.

  • Don't skank unless you mean it. Hilarious!

  • the syberns (unknown spelling) are a reference to Reel big fish, no?

  • @freakomation yepp

  • pat cant skank

  • Lol... Thumbs up if you're a ska fan and still found this song enjoyable to listen to

  • @FunkafizeProductions this was actually a really good song

  • @FunkafizeProductions this song turned me on to ska

  • @FunkafizeProductions I wasn't a ska fan until I heard this one (didn't even know what ska was) but I liked it so I checked what ska is all about. Now, I am a ska fan and I still like it.

    It just sounds like real music.

  • @FunkafizeProductions its a good song if they got rid of the funny aspect of it

  • @FunkafizeProductions if someone says they love ska, and don't like this video... then they don't love ska

  • I cant tell if this guy is making fun of ska or if he's serious... either way fuck him for hating the brass
