Spoon - The Underdog (Live)

[mubozcan]

I love this song !

[sennister666]

love the group

[coach9087]

i love his voice and he sing really well live

[IwIsHyOuWeReoLdEr]

Oh dear Lord!!!!! <3

[cornhead002]

The lead singer looks so much like Gary Busey lmao.

[megatonydeath]

@cornhead002 a tiny, sane one.

[dagrindsman]

Time index 2:48. Jim Eno sacrificed precision for flash :).

[chrislarson15]

@Eblanc haven't* My apologies.

[chrislarson15]

@Eblanc where you see tension, I see concentration. If you have stepped out of your bubble of pretension long enough to experience actual musicianship, you wouldn't understand what I'm saying.

[k00patr00pa1]

I finally realized who the lead singer sounds like and its rather uncanny...ELVIS COSTELLO

[megatonydeath]

@k00patr00pa1 definitely there. not uncanny. this guy is quite unique. Costello is a legend.

[SuperStargate101]

I think it sounds better in live then on the album

[frettls]

Actually I think it is the phrasing and tonality. I listen to it and I think Phil.

[frettls]

Phil Lynott would be proud to know that he had influenced so many young musicians. Love the sound and the horns, and I usually don't care for horns....strange.

[BradyLynott12]

@frettls except for the predominance of the bass in this song, what do they have in common with Phil Lynott and Thin Lizzy?

[dieBerggoas]

singer is good and ...good looking ,-)

[tacticalshotgunner12]

The sound he made was hilarious

[Orgily]

ga ga ga ga ga > kill the moonlight

[dinowizzard3]

No one can stop the spoon. no one.

[Eblanc]

1:33 It was soo painful to see. As a live musician, It shocked me.

[jamesalanstrickland]

@Eblanc what was painful?

[SpartanM621]

@Eblanc

You smokin' dope bro?

Seriously, nothing was out of place in that moment in time.

[Eblanc]

@SpartanM621 Not saying it's bad. But you can see the tension. If you haven't played on a big stage, you can't understand what I'm saying here.

[SpartanM621]

@Eblanc

Obviously you and SSSteez have some discussing to do; two seconds after YOUR time, SSSteez likes to think Britt actually ENJOYS playing music. How ludicrous is that?

Oh, and kudos for being extremely pretentious.

[bcbcbcbudsbudsbuds]

brilliant song.

[jwbrown1968]

if it only had a cowbell...

[BOSOX9004]

I always wonder if he's using the same rattle over and over again or if he has, like, a closet full of them.

[jfsa380]

i like the slower version with less drums

[SSSteez]

1:35 - 2:03 he's having such a dope time singing this song, its awesome!

[armandahammer]

ya really.. why do i always think that britt daniel sounds british?

[jfsa380]

@armandahammer perhaps because his name is britt? naww, but yeah, kinda, he also kinda could look british

[bcbcbcbudsbudsbuds]

@jfsa380 definetly does, maybe an influence from british bands. I hear some of The Kinks in there, (who I love by the way.)

[Asielreyes]

this guys are the boom! 4realz

[MicahBuzan]

love them

[Gotcoldfeet]

22 people are plain deaf.

[helena912]

Holy motherfucker, my ears just lost their virginity.

[joebobjohnny]

I saw them here, in Austin

[apolloishigh]

this is.....british

[TheAlexander56]

@apolloishigh kinda yeah.

[RadioMuse1]

@apolloishigh British via Texas! :D

[spinmarstheatre100]

2008messenger i totaly agree and they do it well

[paahya]

perfeita essa sincronia deles, som muito bom!

[LightSweet]

OK, I know it's way to expensive to tour w/a horn section. So do they hire local horn sections at each one of their dates? Like high school marching bands or something cool like that?

[LightSweet]

I can't believe these guys played live in L.A. the same date I was at the Hwd Bowl seeing...Phoenix?????

[habdon]

Garey Buseys love child.

[VanBattenzao]

17 again's soundtrack =D

[TifanShu]

I'm scared that one day I'll have listened to this song too often and it won't be able to take my breath away anymore.

[endeau]

He kind of looks like Gary Busey as Buddy Holly

[bradsykesTV]

:30 - The singer looks like Jack Swagger from WWE.

[guangosdude]

Of course i will assist their performance in El Paso!!!

[thegiraffewithin]

...<3

[xFREAKAZOID9x]

man i would love to see these guys live!!

[scottinsc]

The lead singer could pass for a young Gary Busey!

[austinrichman]

Saw these fellas in April and they are all over it

[syborius]

sorta reminds me of brian seltzer orchestra...

[sickbeast09]

And I absolutely love spoon, this is one of many songs that spoon has created, and the out come, simply fantastic.

[sickbeast09]

@rhettrongun he called him a douchebag because he didn't keep his mouth shut. If he doesn't like this type of music. He doesn't have to comment. But he did. So he's a douchebag. Asshole.

[brilleaben]

When this song suddenly appeared in the background on HIMYM I literally got goosebumps.. it was just to much awesomeness on one screen!

[sallyjune30able]

nice :)

[wctalley]

terrible just awful

[arabflyer]

sounds more like costello style rock to me

[EisleyConst]

I always think 'John Lennon!'

[bostongary]

Saw them in Seattle a few months back. Great show.

[Nevermind900426]

he sounds like Kelly Jones...

[dagnut]

@Nevermind900426 shoot your self in the face

[manufourlyf]

@Nevermind900426 He sounds nothing like Kelly Jones :S

[TunesandTones1]

Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga

One of the best albums of that year

[qb11boo]

This guy sounds just like Billy Joel with some Bruce Springsteen. Bring that shit back one spoon at a time

[Furiousblue42]

Billy Joel

[whatareyoudoingbabs]

that sounds almost similar to the album version. they are really good.

[12345l6789]

simple songs written well, performed well, intelligently played. amazing.

[francismanansus]

kinda sounds similar to Phoenix...

[TheBensont123]

@francismanansus i don't see the resemblance buddy. =D

[anairene77]

EXCELENTE!!!

[stab116]

best alternative rock band ever!

[estolinski]

YEAH!

[pflo99]

Elvis Costello

[krentistthedentist]

awesome

[44eelz]

lame white music

[madara152]

spoon is my favoritest band ever

ive listened to them since i was 5

thats 6 years

[santigarcia98]

arent they like regge guys?

[Mrmtjones]

is that napoleon dynamite?

[spottydude21]

this song is awesome

[wolf36568875]

they sound really good live

[retrobrunettebeauty]

The singer is good looking

[Daltonskates1]

awesome

[BBString]

man that was great, love the drummer at 2:48, well funny!

[ejeevika]

i miss the claps

[bossrjc]

Love this song. Awesome. They were great on Letterman last night

[totalwombatfan]

Aww I love Spoon!!!

[weallovekoek]

The drummer at 2:48 xD

[grayhaskins]

gosh, spoon is amazing! i love this song :)

[frankdavid1000]

I hate "seventeen again" but Spoon is awesome.

[SenseiOfSlow]

oh britt's face after.."and you won't talk to the waterboy"...i want to know the joke too..

[YFactor8]

It's not easy going on Letterman with 15 guys on stage and playing a song like this. Spoon rocks!

[npization]

this song was sick in 17 again!

[prowlman]

Not too impressed. Best song or band? Not a chance. It's not one of those styles or artists that I could listen to for more than 2 songs, but then that's just me. Everyone has their new/latest "favorite" including me, this just isn't mine.

[bostongary]

@prowlman Then why you here douche bag? Go blow on the Seattle shit.

[prowlman]

You are a funny little MF hiding behind a keyboard.  Go play with your legos puss.

[bostongary]

@prowlman I will actually be visiting Seattle in April if you want to meet up. Not just tough behind the keyboard you grunge MF.

[rhettrongun]

@bostongary How does not liking a performance make someone a douchebag? Seems a bit childish to name call for different music taste.

[bostongary]

@rhettrongun I stand corrected.

[bebowilliams]

17 Again ruined so many songs....especially this one. It associated teens and this type of coolness.

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­o

[ola1906]

this is the best song on the world!

[HotWithChanceOfRain]

that douchie movie stole a good song, good for spoon make money money

[roknfnrol]

One of the best bands ever...

[2008Messenger]

I point these guys out to people that say beatles era rock is dead.

[LightSweet]

@2008Messenger But ya know who they sound like on this one? A Rockin' Billy Joel!!

[JPJonnyPro]

@2008Messenger big call 

[sertuerner]

There´s so much more beauty in thist than it seems superficially apparent at first glance. This song is summing up something very important. As far as I am concerned, that´s what popular music is all about. The fact that this group and this music has´nt been discovered yet on a broader scale, says a lot about the state of the music industry and so little about the talent we are exposed too here.!!! Beautiful!

[whiskeychainsaw]

This sounds like a modern Billy Joel circa 1980...

[thepaddywagonishere]

They should have called Billy Joel before they cut this song in the studio. He could have sang lead and it would have been a mega hit!

[nicksousa8]

when i first heard this song i thought it was billy joel

[BiggySn1p3r]

ever since i saw 17 again, i wanted to know this song.

[bosslouel33]

at 1:00 the drummer uses the maraca to hit the hi hat cymbal...hahaha./..

[MrStampide]

jajaj i didnt notice that XDDDDDDDDDDDDDD youre the ones that see with detail all the videos XD

[bosslouel33]

yup.....this song is so awesome.....

[TheThroney]

good idea

[MrStampide]

:O this guy sing the same live as in the videos

[WatchMe2ice]

Not even close, but maybe you are being sarcastic!

[varialniloo]

i love spoon :D

[primzappa]

Absolutely beautiful!

[BadestManOnThePlanet]

it doesnt "sound wierd"

its just a different mix..

the horns are louder and more full.

I think this sounds amazing and better than the album.

But thats just me.

[Chrisfromlehigh]

These guys are from Austin, Texas? I thought I detected an accent from the lead singer.

[norwegianblue64]

Yeah, I totally thought they were Scottish :D

[jabbadababba]

tha thingg dat yu doan undahstand

love the band but his diction live...ugh

[HunypoohsAngel]

I did not know type of SUPERSTAR I with Saturday @ class reunion. As my kids say "BRING IT BACK!DEEANN."

[shavis001]

These guys do rock, but the sound was a bit strange, as it often does on late night TV.

[kootenayboy72]

the instruments are wayyyyyyyyyyyyy different than the album cover

[darkknite318]

lol way to break a mirraca

[nicklessz]

no, piss off

[moemoemoe134]

fucking awesome band!

[sillyredhat]

lol at 2:48

[TheSasha555]

These guys are such hipsters with their white belts.

[gpl5006]

These guys have been around before the term hipster even existed.

[improvmastah]

the term hipster was used before hippies

[flashboy918]

this is totally awesome!!! :D

[LDLWZ]

his voice is ... strange when they're live.

[ATPIIX]

Sounds like the clash.

[IBelongToNickJonas]

WOH!! i love this song!

[SMACDAZZLE]

they're really good live, and have a very old-school vibe; reminds me of the music that was in scooby doo. excelente :)

[hmmm7abu]

17 again and i love you man, i love this song :))

[oquendo21]

thats weird. i just watched i love you man and searched you tube to find it as well. cool song

[marco18p]

lol me too that movie was funny

[MusicLover1029]

hah, same here. i watched i love you man just like less than 10 min.

[cscbunky1381]

GO ATX! Great song ;)

[Joestal1]

I love this song. To be honest I thought it was a '70s Billy Joel song. Had to do a search on it after watching "I love you Man".

[amicusnemini]

I thought it was Bob Dylan

[perfectstranger]

Hehe, the singer Britt Daniel kinda looks like Gary Busey. Great band, Girls can tell is an excellent album. This stuff is great too of course.

[AKAObol]

I agree about the Gary Busey thing!

[carobetz]

This song is perfect with sexy zac efron in 17 again !!!

[Laxitrus]

hahaha, 17 again brought me here 2.

[corleone5005]

hahaha same like me....i hear it for the 1st time in 17 again :X

[arcadefirefan00]

these guys and Tin Tin Can's EP "Confetti Machete" have been on constant rotation for me

[atzeatilla]

17 again brought me here 2

[skateonwaves]

me too and I'm happy to be there !

[jarqo]

this ... sux? yes

[clsi]

Song is in 'I Love you Man'

[bakapo]

17 again brought here 2....

[timar03]

17 again brought me here

[blurrybigfoot74]

I first heard this on the movie "Cloverfield"

[cabezaconorejas]

really? wich moment?

[blurrybigfoot74]

At the party in the beginning. It's playing in the background.

[bagofries]

whoa holy shit. whoever mixed this ruined a great song

[soybomb43]

No kidding. So much for energy.

[alyssar16]

hell yeahhh

austin texas... :)

[Alejounoloco]

ATX!!!

 SPOON!!!

Represent BHOYS!!

[Zizzs]

Austin Texas = God of all Cities, Proud to live here :D

[aioki]

very catchy song .. i relly like it ... i think i will look out for their other songs :p

[acr12000]

they're like that Farrelly Brothers sort of band that plays weird songs the whole movie. never really got why people like Spoon. They're not that bad but rather mediocre compared to other bands.

[redcatbaseball16]

theyre playing the music they love to play and they are really chill songs, songs you can just enjoy no matter what your doing, thats why people like spoon

[gefranchini]

I'd really would like to know what kind of band do you think is good or great...If you find Spoon mediocre, you outta have a high musical standard.

[joshgermeroth]

this is a really terrible performance. horn section is the only saving grace.

[nicfinnigin]

ahh i love spoon...

their songs have hella meaning to me.
