[decendeded]

[decendeded]

there's a kat at 1:00

[egchanty]

Congrats Serj and Dave, you've just killed a great song. Fail.

[NickNorie15]

Funny how this song probably refers to most of the people in the audience...

[FishboneINK]

ha! this is awesome.. i remember thinking that Serj was like a metal Jello. I fuckin love this!!!!

[wilcoblok1a]

Terrible, just terrible.

[XDAVILAXP]

@wilcoblok1a sorry about your lack of taste in music... may a prescription of "stfu and enjoy" will help!

[zxReav]

Dear god , please change my hair colour and magically give me serj's beard and mustache

[KickaOfficial]

totally wrong drum beat, there should be a dance beat

[johnaldinho111]

The VMA's probs havent even heard of DK!

[snowyaprilsix]

at 1:00 the friday man's in there. and kat von d? oO

[johnnyafm]

An awesome band and an awesome singer covering another awesome band.

[soycarnemuerta]

they are dancing like a techno party. motherfuckers

[nosey1982]

wow that crowd sucks

[kevinAXEL102]

Temazo De Dead Kennedys

[theultimateducksfan]

The song and the band itself on this are pretty awesome. Just seeing the crowd, though, totally made me sad.

[13zmag13]

3:13... you're welcome

[m3liee13]

i wanna marry a headbanger

[THESOVIETCCCP]

love how he took out "NIGGERS" and put "FUCKERS".  His voice sucked compared to Jello's.

[SuperBspb]

@THESOVIETCCCP Lol all the covers I've seen replaced it with "BROTHERS"

[SerjTankian98]

@THESOVIETCCCP No use in causing controversy over a cover song, especially in the politically correct age we live in.

ALSO, I'm sure Serj has already proved his lyrical/vocal talent.

[RubeenGtheGrunge]

I like!

[nathangray12]

Serj is the perfect voice to cover DK. Seriously, one of the best covers of anything ive ever heard. Flawless

[sadpanda71]

braggin' that you know how the crackers feel warmth in their fifty grand pent house apartment!

[woba247]

weird drummer:D

[Surfrock17]

i think nobody from that crowd knows about DK

[Surfrock17]

this song is not for all that crowd

[thestignl]

Ever seen that Kat von D (tatoo artist, tv show LA Ink) is in the crowd with her BF of back then.

[santacruzkid97]

they replaced "niggers" with "brothers" what the fuck guys, what the fuck

[gameraccounts]

@santacruzkid97 WTF, they arent trying to be jylo 'my friennnnnnd!'

[halojam2202]

i think his voice is perfect for the song

[pleasantnightmare21]

a lot of people forget dave and chris's old punk roots

[PersonMan92]

@pleasantnightmare21 Nobody's forgetting them, but this is a really-watered down version of a great song. It just sounds so plastic.

[soberambi]

lmao if this crowd were to b in a dead kennedys live they would be kicked off to cambodia

[DiZBlOwZ]

he dint have the BALLS TO SAY NIGGERS WHAT A PUSSY

[gorrak1]

@DiZBlOwZ Even Jello uses the brothers line now.

[TheRevengeancer]

@DiZBlOwZ

like they'd let you say nigger at the VMA's

[MrThewhiteindian]

@DiZBlOwZ Lmao! Go listen to System of a Down's cover of Shame and Will they die for you, because you obviously have no idea what your talking about.

[Wiskid86]

Where did they get this crowed?

[JamesHarlot]

406 people don't know what awesome musical collaborations sound like.

[MeelFuckinWay]

ese público no sabe como agitarla

[xXJacobBuckXx]

Serj is the only person I can think of that could even attempt to pull off Jello, and he does a great job.

[GORILALBINO123]

ooo hi didnt say "niggers" like in the original song :O...thats a fucking amazing man,all hail serj

[ThePunkSvin]

this completly sucked compared to the original

[TheFreakyhawk]

@ThePunkSvin asshole it didnt sucked its awesome than the original , i dont know what do u think , it sucked because of the audience

[bandana32]

0:58 the chick in the white and black dress was probably there to hear Everlong. Bitch.

[canuckleful]

You can tell the preps don't get the lyrics.

[feefuup]

did i see Kat von D ??

[superfrejol98]

foo fighters+serj tankian+dead kennedys= so awesome i cant explain 

[michaelramirez07]

dam serj sings it almost the exact same as the dead kennedys version

[FunkyardOfficial]

0:29 I LIKE TO DRUMS!

[Tiramisumandeln]

i have the weird feeling most people in that crowd were expecting a different kind of music?

[Greenmonty9797]

Don't compare the foo fighters to nickleback that's an insult

[blaketheawesomedude]

Well gee the crowd sure seems interested. And I guess serj tankian was too much of a pussy to sing the real lyrics.

[samanosuke95]

@blaketheawesomedude shut up :'(

[blaketheawesomedude]

@samanosuke95 I will not shut up, dont get me wrong I like Foo Fighters and SOAD, but this is just bad, And I cant help but think that Jello Biafra wouldnt have censored himself like a little bitch like serj tankian did here.

[t3llularman]

Why the fuck are Nickleback and Borat covering a Dead Kennedys song?

[sharinganchidori100]

@t3llularman ok now thats funny XD

[MegaSoadicto]

increible!!!!! wn es una mezcla bomba!!! saludos de chile :D

[mesteriassasin]

Dead kennedy

[darkwattie227]

it was good but not even serj can masterd the art of punk like the dead kennedys

[300Z31]

90% of those faggots in the crowd don't even know what this song is, nor do they know who Jello Biafra is. Sad.

[niterainbow47]

I thought Bin Ladin was deadOo

[shadowsuitsnipe]

WHAT!!! No pit!!! WTF

[OKkidA1]

I hate everyone in the audience. . . . o_o

[mdeisler09]

that was the most mellow rendition of a dead kennedys song i have ever heard, incredibly disappointed

[sinnergy73]

I wonder if anyone in the audience knew who the dead Kennedys were.

[TheDimlarryking]

i wonder if anyone from the audience knew who pol pot was.

[LaughingatpainUSAway]

audience looks like a bunch of Com'pd "VIPs"

[LaughingatpainUSAway]

2:29 dude in the blue shirt acts like this is the beatles lol.. dude doesnt get it

[LaughingatpainUSAway]

keepin' the good music dream alive

[furnicaticaloasa]

there are a lot of people in the audience that should not be there 

[Tuse01]

@furnicaticaloasa particularly that bitch texting in the front

[nfmm33]

@furnicaticaloasa 99 percent of that audience can kiss my old fat ass those fkers don't know REAL old school kennedies......i remember i used to skate to this D.R.I. and the dead milkmen ask them about that

[Neiraywea]

serj don't you mess with the shit please

[ninjamasterhaden]

Is that Snooki in the front portion of the audience? :o

[TheEwik987]

looooooooooooooollllllllllllll­lllllllllll

[stonecruiser72897]

did these two masters really just play holiday in cambodia together? YYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

[rancidpunk910]

hey serj it says NIGGERS not BROTHERS

[TheFreakyhawk]

@rancidpunk910 asshole serj censored NIGGERS to BROTHERS because he is anti racist , and what do u think he doesnt know the lyrics fucking retard!

[Fakeone1710]

@TheFreakyhawk Listen to "Shame" by soad and wu tang clan, you freaking faggot. better shut the fuck up about Serj, you poser shit.

[jfachris]

@TheFreakyhawk doesn't make you racist to niggers. Biafra isn't racist and those are his lyrics. People are sensitive to the truth.

[xXJacobBuckXx]

@TheFreakyhawk It's all about context, it isn't racist in the context of the song. Dead Kennedy's satirically assumed the position of their intended targets in many songs, it's kind of their thing... Being the VMAs I assume this was televised, so he kept it clean for that reason.

[heatpicking]

pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot! pol pot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ValeriaR32]

listening to 2 great bands do a cover by my favorite band is amazing...know i have a lot of respect for them

[lzw3]

why does he look like Borat?

[krzycolombian]

@lzw3 correction: borat looks like serj

[MrBoyinthedark]

I kinda wish they got the lyrics right from Dead Kennedys...

[37poirot]

please..oh please tell me he is be ironic?????

[37poirot]

@37poirot Being

[MangaAddict13]

greatest..... cover...... ever....

[eatmyorangemarmalade]

dead kennedys cover... fuckya

[AvengedRuleTheWorld]

THE CROWD FUCKING SUCKS!! OH MY GOD!!!

[ZerosPlague]

Funny how the song is pretty much talking about most of the people in that crowd...almost ironic..

[xtremelygoodlookin]

@ZerosPlague It isn't almost ironic, it is very fucking ironic. It almost makes me want to die.

[SaculM666]

this is so good

[Yellow73mm]

I'd nail the moody girl at 1:00

[AeroLord117]

I would pay any amount of money to see these men perform all on one stage

[69MaNgIx96]

0:12 epic "oh fuck, this intro is hard" face!

[MikeExplosivo70]

good performance w/ good artists... but a contradicting setting...

[slasherpool]

I kind of want to punch all these people in the face. Who in the fuck dances to a Dead Kennedy's song?

[138DeadBoy]

@slasherpool Because none of these assholes have ever been to a "Punk" show. So they don't know about skanking and moshing.

[boneclub24]

@138DeadBoy fucking kids, man

[TheBigCheese315]

I bet most of those kids were shitting their pants once they caught on to the lyrics.

[gdub19777]

The best band ever playing with the best band member ever...interesting.

[hecubusXX]

lol lyrics changed for MTV. 

[Irresponsibleatall]

Fucking kennedys rock!!!

[metalkingbeast6]

wow, , i mean wow, what an unusaul fucking combo?!1 the foos and Serj! awesome, just saw foos live, gona see soad in a few months! now im ready!

[gordosoad1]

DEAD KENNEDYS IS A BEST

[makeupjunkiie24]

fuck them dead Kennedys do it alot better then these sold outs

[MaynardJamesKeenanJr]

99% people watching this dont know who the Dead Kennedys are......

[ValeriaR32]

@MaynardJamesKeenanJr  said aint it

[MsArmyofDarkness]

@69Curtdog

Nazi punks fuck off!

You'll be the first to go.

[floatingtoesters2]

wow this kinda sucks, that drummer isnt even remotely close to being as good as Peligro

[kjkj1002002]

he kinda reminds me of zappa!

[VadyAndrei]

My 2 favorite alive musicians on the same stage. My ears are in paradise.

[Adamzbeplayingbass]

Fucking Awesome.

[elluart0609]

what a shitty audience.

[emoduckify]

He looks like borat  alittle

[thosch71]

pol pot pol pot... my ass... 99% of the audience doesnt even know the sligthest bit about this mofo.... and its so sad to see soad with their cultural background sell out a song like this.

pardon for the bad english... :)

[thespainisharmada]

@thosch71 I used to think that too, but then it occurred to me that they're making fun of the audience to their faces. This song is about the audience, making fun of them, and they don't even realize it.

[triesvan]

@thosch71 My thoughts exactly. 

[SerjTankian98]

If you don't like Serj, fine. But the guy can play so many instruments he's fit for this.

[mejso77]

Serj is a beast! he sings it like original by Dead Kennedys

[Riotman898]

I wonder if Kurt Cobain would've liked System of a Down...

[renatalorbiesky]

I always thought System of A Down was an "upgrade" version of Dead Kennedys! Now Serj proved me why!

[tkotkotkopamama]

Foo Fighters + Serj Tankian= Chuck Norris Legacy

[ENGoldberg]

@tkotkotkopamama Except without the tea party bullshit.

[liepinshtein]

@jesufaglar Taylor Hawkins is one of the finest rock drummers in modern rock history.

[guitardude69696969]

@jesufaglar your mom sucks my dick

[Jacobiskoby37]

This version is too slow, they should have kept the original drum beat.

I do love it though. Serj has a great voice, especially for this song.

[XxNomac]

I wonder if serj has been in a show in his younger years?????

[UTFRG]

The dead kennedys own. foo fighters on the other hand are pretty shit and the fact that they are covering a song from a different genre (a better one) and a band that is better than them is shit. the foo fighters arent leeching of the dead kennedys because the dead kennedys werent popular which meant they were dignified and werent connected to vevo unlike foo fighters but they did ruin a good song for those who are hearing it now and i have no respect for this sellout band with girly singing.

[DeAd6DrEaMs]

@UTFRG

This comment was so fucking idiotic I actually feel dumber after reading it.

[permian11]

@UTFRG you are such a complete dumbass it's mind boggling

[chosenone420]

Serj Biafra

[2010TPESKI]

Oh the irony...

[cerpinTHEmute]

serj =best vocalist ever

[UTFRG]

@cerpinTHEmute HAHA thats funny... no really... just die, please

[cerpinTHEmute]

@UTFRG you first

[MrZachgonz]

U can see cat Von D a couple times. I didn't really like the cover.

[Davemustaineharris]

BORAT

[RKReyes4]

Serj has a noose on the mic lol

[Stranglehold432]

That audience needs a holiday in Cambodia.

[DAWIII]

not a bad cover. SISTER DOUBLE HAPPINESS does the best cover of Holiday in Cambodia, it is actually Better than the Dead Kennedy's.(ask Jello)

[shaun57661]

to those who bitch about this being played to the "wrong crowd" - preaching to the choir is easy, pals. It's much more radical to go against the flow than to go with it... so, perhaps maybe, just maybe... someone actually heard this song from a Foo Fighters search and learned something they didn't know about before. This, from a 45 year old doosh who bought the original albums (ie:vinyl) *when they came out* but who also got to be that way from hearing a few punk songs on *ahem* AOR FM radio.

[negativewierdo]

he kinda sounds like the lead singer of the b52's

[ireternalexistence]

@negativewierdo He kinda sounds like the lead singer of System of a Down.....

[negativewierdo]

@ireternalexistence oh really thats funny...

[whereverisation]

@ireternalexistence

That's him :)) Serj Tankian is from SOAD

[ireternalexistence]

@whereverisation Yes, but I was being sarcastic, although its difficult to notice sarcasm in text so I understand why you said that.

[JordanWalsh0]

@ireternalexistence He is, unless that was sarcasm in that case, you my friend are awesome.

[pannini69]

398 are pol-pot friends

[SchoolofRockNRoll]

someone who knows what pedal shiflett uses for the beginning?

[manhuntruler2]

The Lyrics are going against what the Crowd stands for and their just dancing like it's Pop music or lady Gaga -_- Fucking bitches in the crowd

[kiladan]

Serj is significantly less entertaining than Jello Biafra. And he dances like a bitch at a concert. He lost the points he gained for covering the song.

[SerjTankian98]

@kiladan Well that bitch at a concert is possibly one of the most talented musicians in the world...

[squadalawereoff1]

the epicness of this performance is underrated by the crowd

[FreyjasFighter]

FUCK ME Kat Von D is in that crowd!!!!! O.O lol

[sk8dog907]

@ seljeks lol maybe like one or two top's and how sad is that.

[seljeks]

How many assholes in that crowd do you suppose even know who the fuck the Dead Kennedy's are?

[steelurhubcaps]

@seljeks they dont even know who the foo fighters and serj are let alone the dead kennedys

[MrPlink0]

@seljeks 3

[seljeks]

@MrPlink0 I guess I can see Kat Von D and her guy at the time in the crowd lol

[MRGENERATIONADD]

@seljeks four.

[mistax2k]

@seljeks Yeah maaaan, because you're the only one who gets it maaaan.

[seljeks]

@mistax2k Are you being sarcastic?
