  • voldemort on lead guitar!

  • Great song! the lyrics are fun and "chany", very memorable!

  • That is one killer green screen

  • Freaking awesome dude !!

    But the other two guys could help the singer with some choirs, he's pretty alone..

  • damn good live!

  • I found this awesome quote from Greg Graffin of Bad Religion regarding who and what's punk. Thought I would share since it seems to come up a lot in people's comments. The quote is in the next 3 posts.

  • It is an inane task to try and define punk universally. Its meaning is fuzzied everywhere by contextual circumstance. A 16 year-old girl from an affluent religious family who consistently shows up to church on Sunday with her green mohawk and "**** Jesus" shirt is punk. But so is a 42 year old biology professor who claims that Charles Darwin's ideas were wrong.

  • Neither person has ever heard of, nor met, one another, nor hung out together at the same underground club. And yet their challenge to established institutions and revulsion to dogmatic thinking links them spiritually. Whether this is genetic or learned is unknown. But I too feel a kinship with everyone who shares these traits.

  • I don't feel allied with those who are exclusive, elitist, and who think that their way of life is a model for how others should live theirs. My philosophy was instilled by the open minded thinking of my parents of course, but also through the turmoil I experienced growing up. While I realize many kids had it harder than me, I have found that a lot of people who call themselves punks had similar experiences.

  • Anyone know when they play in england next?, if they still play atall? i wana see them so badly! :(

  • This video is one of my favourites.

  • it would be epic if they did a tour with less than jake and a few other bands again and should definatley come to cincinnati

  • This song is obviously awesome...this video is obviously in front of a green screen.

  • some of the best pop-punk-ska shit, ever. Like fuck it man, 1,2,3,4. such good stuff.

  • this singer sings so well! better than some of the other punk/ska bands. i give them props

  • there are better punk bands like sum 41 or Green Day but this one is still awsome!!

  • @hayqdueleymucho Green Day wasn't bad.. The sum 41 dude married Avril Lavigne which is probably one of the biggest posers of all time and their lyrics are corny as hell. Better punk would be like, Screeching Weasel, The Queers, The Secretions, or even The muffs. But, I would say Gold Finger was without a doubt better than sum 41. But you are entitled to your opinion.

  • my ex recommended this song to me .... fuuuuu~

  • If you guys like this band you should really go check out Green Day play back in the 1990s. They're even better and play quite harder. These guys are okay too but Green Day is just raw awesomeness back in the 90s.

  • @Junkpunker21 These guys made bands Green Day exist

  • @MuteSwanCo

    Green Day formed in 1987 and had their first albums made in 1990. Goldfinger DID NOT influence Green Day.

  • @MuteSwanCo YEAH, fool. Why do people just say things?

  • 1,2,3,4....5

  • are they drunk?

  • 44 people who don't know how to party!!

  • норм видос

  • Team Canada? C'mon Darren, you're better than that!

  • whats up with the crappe animation ?! :D

  • shit this is accurate

  • best song of Goldfinger ever! ...\m/ \m/

  • i am a cunt but my girl now knows how i feel when i play her this song

  • I f*&@ing love this band!

  • This ain't punk! LOL

    Goldfinger is magic.

    Anyway, check out:

    "Stark Naked and The Fleshtones".

    This from an old Canadian punker.

  • Hell i don't care what it is IT'S awosme

  • That has got to be the worst set i have ever seen.

  • @tlshaggy711 worst set but great act !!!

  • im surprised that they have been together for so long, it's not like every band is like that.

  • good times good times

  • it's ska punk

  • I love how this is a band that doesn't really NEED to be cleaned up in the studio. He has a great voice, no really editing needed.

  • its ska

  • @andie8989 hahahaha...I hope you're not saying that this song is "ska". That would be a joke.

  • I'd kill to see these guys live.

  • @jrtichy I've seen them live almost 20 times. They are so amazing and they really get the crowed going, They''re not quite as good as they were 10 years ago, but still good none the less.

  • @dangerousrandy Do they still play live? if they do when next? im 16 in jan, i wana go see then so fucking bad!!!!

  • @jrtichy they are coming to my city to make a concert and i cant fucking believe it!!!

  • @jrtichy too bad you'd go to jail and miss the show

  • Are they in front of a green screen? Looks like it.

  • what year is this performance from?

  • great band, not the sound of this video though

  • punk is whats in your heart!!!!!!!

  • Gold Finger is probably one of the greatest Live bands ever. I love these fuckers. Also they are really down to earth chill dudes i got to hang with these boys a few years back. Punk Ska whatever you wanna call em. I call em fucking amazing

  • love goldfinger!

  • hahaha wicked special fx, awesome song though

  • Charlie is the SHIT..... BLACK PREZ!!

  • they are so awesome, you got to love them. Also they did the best jump ever in this video.

  • Typical MTV... throw off the audio by a few seconds because you can't handle a band saying "Shit" on tv...

  • damn, they sounded much better on shaun white snowboarding.... hahahaha

  • WTF is that horrible green screen

  • haha thanks randy. i like the moniker too. do you have the dangerous darrin album? i got it at a show in 99 or 2000 and lost it. its like 120 on amazon. post "PEPSI COLA SUCKS" and i'll be your friend for life.

  • @DirtySanchezLives ya, i have it. i also have the 2nd album. ill see what i can do

  • @DirtySanchezLives hey, I finally started posting songs from Darrin's solo album. I just have one song up no, but ill keep posting. Happy listening

  • goldfinger are amazing. Jon feldman is an inspiration

  • not that great live , =/

  • pure energy

  • American idiot was probably the album i saw advertised more than anything, so the certainly didn't die with the album, they did definitely change their sound

  • shaun white snow boarding

  • i'd like to hear that. make a vid :)

  • @sweetthing161

    can you show us your vision?

  • i'll try to make a vid. but i need my friend to be willing to help me out

  • good song, but not that great right here. ha. goldfinger has a bit of lame lyrics, also some weird parts in some songs but thats what makes them different and badass.

    Btw green day was damn punk rock with dookie and insomniac, although the lyrics weren't traditional by bringing down authority and saying fuck u to politics. Insomniac was mostly fast paced kick ass rock that made you want to break something. lol

  • @junglejuice91 I miss those days.... I personally believe the band died by making American Idiot. Metaphorically speaking.

  • haha so true bout insomniac

  • guti is right

  • goldfinger is a great band and i like their music..but they really SUCK LIVE!!

  • have you ever seen them live?... because i have, and they dont suck at all. This performance could be better...

  • guitipunk182 your lit shut your mouth.

  • have you ever seen them live?!?!?! ive seen them probably 10 times, and everytime........awesome! hope your comment was on this video, cause then id understand....but they are one of the best live bands ever!

  • the mixing on this song is terrible, not goldfingers faultttt

  • well i guess you just don't give a sheesh hahaha

  • nice white sox :D

  • Comment removed

  • well goldfinger is one of my favorite bands but here they sound really bad

  • great song...makes me feel happy and nostalgic

  • I don't care if it's punk or not

    I think it's a great song! 5*

  • Enough of the what's punk and what's not punk comments. Its a fucking retarded argument that nobody can win. I will be deleting all comments of that nature.

  • @dangerousrandy

    Well, Its Ska Punk really, Well early Goldfinger was atleast

  • @dangerousrandy yeah everyones got their own criteria in mind of what constitutes a genre, and things wouldn't be fun if everyone 100% agreed on them. people should realise that.

  • @HAYDS510 Totally agree with you. If there was a specific set of guidelines as to what makes a band or a song "punk" it would be a system and that doesn't sound very punk now does it?

  • @dangerousrandy its ska

  • Poor drummer, you don't see him at all :P

  • awful!

  • Why don't you all stop labeling music and just listen to a great song?

  • exactly, thank you!

  • MTV PLAYING MUSIC!?!?!? this is blasphemy . there is no way MUSICTV should ever play music. I mean we have got all kinds of good shows that have nothing to do with music on Mtv like Rob and Big Dickmunch, Nitro Gaybar, and all these others. I HATE MTV THEY CAN SHOVE ALL THEIR SHOWS UP THEIR ASS! but i <3 this song

  • agree 100% with you^^ mtv suxxx i hate it

    Great song (Y)

  • @gorma46, but before they shove them up their ass they should repair my car and install monitors everywhere

  • OMG theyre playing for mtv they still play music???

  • @italianstallion567 they played on mtv before and afterwards, john (the singer) also wrote songs for ashley simpson and others

  • lol he always looks like he's playing DDR while he's playing his guitar.

  • @oOoOoOwned3141592

    haha! XD

    I can't stop looking at their feet now

  • sum 41, greenday, and blink 182 arent punk though... so... dont even say their names

  • Comment removed

  • this statement would've been fine but then you said metal fuck off... Metal fucking rocks too!!!

  • @dogchica thats why you watch there videos ??

    asshole goldfinger rocks even if they gave a bad show here

  • listen dog fuckin whore! go back to your trailer house and smoke some more crack!gold finger kill green day in every way!!

  • @dogchica haha lol greenday are a bunch of fake, made, laguna beach pop pussys. goldfinger rocks although this is a bad live performance.

  • goldfinger kick green days ass

  • yes

  • are there guitars in tune?

  • John said that when they had finished recording the album the band felt that the album still needed a cheesy/catchy song that would be fun to play live so they quickly wrote this song hence the cheesy yet catchy vibe lyrics, chords, and the awesome life performance, particularly with a fully crowed yelling 1-2-3-4!!

  • Indeed.

  • like 40 maybe xD

    i would like to be like him at the same age ;D

  • They do suck live, always have done, I saw them as a kid and was sorely upset that they didn't rock that hard.

    But this is down to their absolutely fierce live antics, they are a very jumpy band.

    Better on record, that's what I always say.

  • So what he sounds shit. At least he has the balls to sing it LIVE yes you heard me right LIVE. lol

  • 1:56 is the best stage move ever

  • XD that's funny

    :p

  • Love these guys. So much energy :)

  • I saw them Back in 1999 when they were on tour with Ignite and they were so good. The played nothing but songs off of the s/t album and hang ups because those were the only 2 cd's they had out.

  • fuck mtv

  • wow, he sounds a lot worse than on the studio version, but of course he doesnt have to do the guitar and the hopping then.. plus this is live.. :P

  • He got hops! :) lol love this song!

  • i hate mtv

  • the video suck the song good

  • It's not the official, just a live performance of the song for MTV!

  • there brill -the blobster-

  • Their bassist is sick!

  • this video is disappointing... i love this song...

  • Thats because they actually sing live instead of lipsynching to an already edited track.

  • Sorry. I should clarrify. Goldfinger sounds good and doesn't lipsynch. Other singers do (Miley Cyrus).

  • you cannot even see the drummer xD

  • Yes, Darrin. From Buffalo, NY, but wearing a Team Canada hockey jersey!

  • what?

  • yeah i agreee thats shit!

  • they seem old when Green Day

  • they put on probably the best live show that i have ever seen

  • What guitar does the lead singer play?

  • Fender jaguar (:

  • so...how close to the drummers' back do you think that fake background is? anyways, this recording is awful, I've heard several other songs by Goldfinger, and this is the worst quality I've heard, I like the song, but I like it more in.....oh any other link with keywords Goldfinger - Counting the days this was for mtv...thats scary, at least its even between the instruments, from what I can tell....

  • Wow, you are stupid.

  • I think its pretty good

  • did they drop their horns?

  • they never had horn players in the band. For the ska stuff they usually got the horn players from their friend's band like Reel Big Fish or the Skeletones to play on the songs.

  • u guys got to remember their not even playin to a crowd so they cant really get into it.

  • fucking state of the bassist..

    it all sounds shit..

  • go suck a chode dickmunch

  • they dance like idots***

  • goldfinger is wicked man

  • idk where u found this vid but its horibly made lol but i love goldfinger

  • Fuck, I love Goldfinger.

    Amazing live.
