Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet - Having An Average Weekend (Kids In The Hall Theme)

[jdugmar]

Amalgamation of my favorite KITH skits, in quotes: "Than I line the plate with 4 distinct dipping areas"...."Each day we shovel fuel, each day we work in silence" ..... People think I got the power cause I got the monkeys"...."My peeeeeeen"......."I make the big bucks now"....."premise beach!!!"....."I see the problem its the Thompson brats again" ....."if Elvis was my land lord"....."more, more, AGAIN, A-A-AGAIN"......SAUSAGES!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrMaDelirious]

I AM TRYING TO DECIDED WHAT I AM GOING TO DO THIS AVERAGE WEEKEND! PROBABLY WATCH THE KIDS IN THE HALL...

[RomanoVergerio]

30 helens agree, this is a great song.

[MrROTD]

@RomanoVergerio according to the like bar only one out of seven Helens don't agree

[CasualMasacre]

Wherever I go, and whatever I do, this song and/or show feels like home.

[capnspl0tch]

Great tune! Listened to this 6 times in a row! Doin' it again tomorrow! Hahahahahahahah!!!!!!!!!

[keelyhv]

Again!

[thSubliminalCriminal]

Love the music so much Yea this is the best sketch comedy I seen since SNL started to suck. Yea it started to suck back in the late 90's and been sloping since. Kids in the Hall on the other hand had a great name a gay guy and the music...everytime they cut away and showed those real cool black and white shots of the guys before and after commercials I thought Jesus Fuck those guys are cool.

[bonzohart]

Great show, great music!

[BigMrMiche]

fucking epic show i still watch kids in the hall on Netflix

[Calledfwych]

i watched this show when it aired in the uk and was immediately struck by just how awesome these guy werer

[DropkickLar]

Kids In The Hall. One of the few things my country got right.

[zarkbot88]

All this video is missing is the drive-by shot of the Asian kids

[Martylovescats]

I hear this in my head walking down the halls of my highschool and feel pretty amasing. I also picture the best film work, of people quickly passing by. 

[TheChawMan]

This song stands alone as a great song. And then you add The Kids in the Hall to the mix, and BOOM! Epic.

[Anrioch]

I just discovered how amazing this show was, ill watch it no matter what time. 2am? no problem :)

[metalliczepplin15]

grew up watching this show and will continue to watch till the day i die

[cragmac1000]

@metalliczepplin15 , It was possibly the best sketch comedy show ever devised.

[cenacantwork]

i fucking love this song and show

[SaskueSucks]

This band name speaks so much to me, and i dont understand why.....

[somecallmejames]

song rules, best theme song period. period. no, .

[DaeRoN17SI]

i love

[shmomo1114]

anyone else like how the logo on the glemonex pill saying brain candy in cross formation is totally the bayer asprin logo, thats funny to me because bayer is the company that invented and marketed a little chemical called dia-morphine, aka heroin, it was given that label by the employee who refined it from morphine because it makes you feel like a hero according to him. It was sold in the back of sears robuck catalog and advertised to cure throat colds and morphine addiction. yeah

[ltbuck27]

When I went to Toronto I loved it....and as I walked the streets and took the subway I thought about SCTV and...The Kids in the Hall.Nothing like going in Harveys and having the Kids in the Hall theme stuck in your head!

[animeisland420]

Yes...i was born in a barn

[thafons]

ITS BECAUSE I HAVE A CABBAGE FOR A HEAD!

[lovetoeatallthefood]

[floydal9]

I scuttled, hurried to bed.

[floydal9]

This reminds of grammar school.....because that's where I was when Comedy Central still freaking showed Brain Candy. This is still one of my favorite opening themes ever.

[chrishaven76]

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE KIH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BattlestarPacifica]

I crush your head!

[PS3dudeJerry]

Why won't you let me forget that I have a CABBAGE FOR A HEAD!?

[BLACKMAGICMETALMAN12]

Best sketch show, and best theme song. Hands down.

[IWantGoats]

This is what music should be...actually Good. 

[emoturbin]

Someone please make a Dubstep version of this. Pleeeease? :)

[cheesecake134]

I listen to this all the time. Clearly the greatest sketch comedy theme of all time. And I would vote one of the greatest themes in all of TV.

[er6789er]

Brain Candy was awesome!!!

[chiso165wh]

This song was and is amazing.

Canadians, make this your official national anthem and you will instantly become a superpower!

[TiannaMusic]

Lol I can play this on guitar but I learned it by ear, my way is fun

[SISfilms]

@TiannaMusic Hey me too, I mostly play the bass line, it was one of the first songs I learned

[CATFISHratcoon]

LOVE

[MrRawrdy]

this music is played 20 seconds before class starts in our highschool...

[ajayequalzbeast]

@MrRawrdy That's the coolest thing I've ever heard in my life it it's true. I used to have this song going on in my head whenever I walked around the halls in HS.

[bmxcanada26]

@MrRawrdy

Coolest. School.  Ever.

[twilightedwardbella9]

@MrRawrdy

I wish my highschool would do that! That would sooo cool

They keep playing Baby by Justin Bieber :/

[Ruby09de]

@MrRawrdy

Great, they should play it in our school, but Germany's not cool enough xD

[freakoutguitarsolo1]

@MrRawrdy

\

lol WTF

[FuckingStanz]

@MrRawrdy are you serious? lmao, where?

[shanghaimike]

@MrRawrdy I get it, Kids [were] In The Hall

[aznjess]

@MrRawrdy Best high school ever. We got "this is me in grade nine" by the barenaked ladies, or that horse racing song lol forget the name. I wanna say its by william teller..dont know if that person even exists

[GorterPoss]

@MrRawrdy So they play the first 20 seconds of the song before the first class?

[Trageikeman116]

@MrRawrdy I wanna go to your high school.

[xIegionx]

@MrRawrdy so they only play 20 secs of the song? proof

[8010cookie]

[auboholick]

@MrRawrdy That's Awesome!

[MrFugbuddy]

@MrRawrdy LOL damn thats cool

[er6789er]

One of the funniest shows on TV - These guys made me cry with laughter - "Brain Candy" is still one of the funniest movies out there....

[KiddLogan]

@er6789er "She's all your's, Cap'n"

lol

[Gatakumo]

Only good thing about kid's in the hall (well aside from the fact that one of the guys voiced the almighty tallest on Invaer Zim)

[hauntedrobot]

@Gatakumo You're an idiot.

[Gatakumo]

@hauntedrobot ok what ever, I don't really care

[paut23]

lool one of the best songs for a intro

[MrNobodysPinealGland]

Temazo.

[hotgoatlove]

I was to young for this show (born in 1992) but yet every time I hear this song I know great timeless comedy is ahead. (I'm watching it as i write!)

This song is also important to me because it is just AWESOME, it is so 'cool' and even after many years feels 'young and fresh'. Better than much of the new music out there!

[colorverrde]

fines de semana a medianoche.! ! Que buenos tiempos!

[Brando2600]

why are there dislikes on every fucking video?

[stuckinnebraska]

Sausages! or He's a chicken kid

[zomgthesoftness]

This song gives me a strange urge to rape Kevin McDonald.

/reference.

[Ofnir6]

Man, Kids in the Hall was one good show.

[broadwaymelody33]

Ah, Kids in the Hall. I remember my parents would watch it all the time on Canadian TV, and I would sneak into our hallway and watch some of it, since I was too young to watch it with them XD.

[KiddLogan]

In the entire history of scetch comedy television......Kids In The Hall had the BEST theme......bar none!

[horgensnot]

@KiddLogan

Second best.

The State #1.

[GorterPoss]

@KiddLogan what about SCTV?

[dEdGrimley]

@ajb15002

This song makes me feel old, and like I haven't accomplished anything in my life.

[Darin847]

@dEdGrimley then start right fucking now, it only will get worse

[flyby7a]

LONG LIVE CANADAAAAAAAAAA

[EldestSauce]

how come the quality of the picture in this video keeps changing?

[ejvader84]

This reminds me of childhood.

[gibberishtwist]

What's with the crappy guitar playing after the actual song?

[LucidDream]

Awesome. Now THIS is music.

[MaceMn]

Awesome upload.

[davinderonline]

i really miss their sketch comedy...like seriously...i'm pinching heads to pass the time.

[nookie077]

Great tune, but what's with the shit guitar playing that kicks in after the song finishes? it's really bad playing, so it can't have anything to do with Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet.

[MrBUDdha42]

this shit is DOPE

[cheapcape]

I love KITH!!

[TheCarlsonsRaiders]

This song won the Juno for best instrumental, and I can see why. One of the best openings to one of the best Canadian TV shows.

[nxggas4sale]

@terrig i know you can find this on the internet... i have this song on my ipod. both this one and the one they actually play in the beginning of the show

[beatlehighlander]

A co-worker at my 1st job got me into this show in '93!Gosh,I'm OLD! LOL!

[FunkyAxl11]

Anyone plz knows the name of the Bass player here???

[Dynex658]

This takes me back to around 2001 when I first saw Kids in the Hall on Comedy Central.

[RSXemperor]

I'm a hip-hop/old school Motown kind of guy but I requested this be played at my wedding back in 2005 when me and my wife came to our wedding party.

We used to play Tekken 2 and watch this show with my mom as kids :)

[er6789er]

KITH - this was a classic Canadian version of SNL - they were brilliant! - watch and learn where the comics of America come from...

[NothingOriginal55]

@er6789er The funny thing is when Mark MckInney went on to do SNL that's when SNL started to suck. (Or is that just me?)

[beatlehighlander]

@NothingOriginal55 Seems to me like around that time the "higher-ups" at NBC were pressuring Lorne Michaels to put SNL in "a new direction", which meant big changes (that yielded "less than expected results",according to NBC executives) and Mark's transition to SNL coincided with these changes.

[Eradicator00987]

@NothingOriginal55 SNL did suck at that time and still does in my option. It was probably hard to top the years when Chris Farley and Adam Sandler were popular on that show. I haven't been able to watch SNL since those years... there's just no comparison...

[cheapcape]

KITH is one in a million! I eternally love that show.

[IzzyferX]

jajaja aguantes los kids (y argentina) toda la onda este tema ademas

[sporocyst1973]

Hail the ori good one thats so EVIL!!

[sporocyst1973]

This takes me back I remember getting up in the middle of the night and watching The kids in the hall on CBS late night...

[radioscillator]

I think I started watching the Kids in the Hall because of this song...Comedy Central used to play shows back to back, and I'd jam to the outro, then the intro again! But what a fabulously dysfunctional show it was... xD

[cheapcape]

@radioscillator Yeah, they compared KITH to Monty Python, but truthfully, I think KITH is way better!

[musterdsandwich]

can listen to this over and over

[psymate]

Death comes to town though :)

[Shotgunnova]

Man, I miss Kids in the Hall. =/

[Strawberry7Lynn]

Great band.  Heard them on the John Peel Show c.1993, BBC Radio One.

[novapup2001]

A band with direct influence on us in The Twang Tens.

[theartofnotbeingseen]

now whenever i heard this, all i think of is a pregnant woman in a bikini running at a high film rate. thanks, kids in the hall.

[astrotrain85]

Oh, my good old days as a teenager... thanks for the post.

[Covox]

Aw, best theme ever.

[jingospoil]

AEWSOME SONG... so is my speling xD

[Stewie2392]

whatsa matter!? never seen a chicken lady before!!??

[jazzelineknox]

they should use this in the new series!!! the song they have is... boring.

[wandecosho]

what? the new song is great! but this is still ten times better.

[apocolypticchrist]

really? I was kinda surpised they never used this song....but I do love the new one.

[lavinder11]

Shhh....

Dim the lights, chill the ham.

[GrassValleyGreg]

Just got the whole series for xmas and have pretty much been watching nothing but ever since

[AcronymEjr]

Just watched Brain Candy... was sad that this song wasn't featured in it.

[Cocarat206]

Probably just cus' its more associated with Kids in the Hall then Brain Candy at this point, I could be wrong.

[potheadj]

oh shit i used to watch the shit out of this show

[watchinshadows]

Does anybody else think that this sounds like early R.E.M.?

[swishasetallday]

can anyone suggest any other songs/bands that have this same kind of almost dark surf sound?

[ajharker]

The Pixies, without a doubt. Same era as this band too. Check out their "Doolittle" album.... and "Bossa Nova"

[ajharker]

...but they weren't an instrumental band or straight up "surf rock"

[huskeyhitter]

a band to check out would be "Man Or Astroman".......great surf rock band
