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!!!
@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!
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..
@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 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.
@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.
@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.
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'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
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.
@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.
