This is great! I love Hall & Oates and you made this song funny with your literal lyrics! You even sounded like them when you sang this. AMAZING! I love this video!
I really need your help! I am currently trying to get as many views on my video as possible to win a local contest for furniture!
Right now the top video has over 100k views and there is only 2 days left for the contest. Please help me by posting my video on facebook, twitter and anything else! Thank you guys
Thank you, thank you, thank you for justly murdering the most annoying Christmas song ever! My wife had to listen to it nonstop when she worked in a drugstore at one point, and now she *hates* it!
I watch this all year round. I bloody love it - just as good as "letter x" - that's what i call the Separate Ways video. I know you have a life, but please keep making time to create these videos, they are fab!
@dascottjr This and "One Week" are my top two favorites of your literal videos. I find it amazng you were able to keep rhyme sceme and meter with "One Week" and still make it into a literal version... true artistry.
I work in retail. Thinking about these parody lyrics whenever I hear this song on the store radio (roughly five times a day) keeps me sane. Thank you.
Man, this has got to be your most underrated literal video. Every "note" you hit is spot-on, plus the fact that you do it TWICE! This is definitely one of your top five in terms of comedy.
@Ontoe Thank you! :) Of course, I think my "One Week" one is the most underrated. My own fault, since I uploaded it the same time as the "Love is a Battlefield" one. Benatar got a million views, and Barenaked Ladies got the shaft. (insert joke here) :( Anyway, thanks again! :)
@dascottjr Funny you say that...I've definitely seen "Battlefield" more times than "One Week," although I appreciate the technical difficulty in parodying a song that's so fast. I just prefer the song "love is a battlefield" to "one week" to begin with.
@dascottjr FULLY AGREE! "One Week" is not only the most under-rated Lit Vid, but it's even my favorite of all of them (including the plethora of other Lit Vids by other YT uploaders). Not to take the spotlight away from this one. Watching this is my favorite holiday tradition now!
@dascottjr Have to agree that your version of "One Week" is truly a masterpiece. (They're all excellent, but "One Week" should have gotten more exposure!)
So many funny lines and its nostalgic. Not because of Christmas, but because it me back to when the simple act of a person visibly over 50 playing a guitar was hilarious.
This one is also really redundant. Hall and Oates were THEMSELVES doing a parody of the goofy randomness of MTV. Can't you find an artist who took their image more seriously? Might I suggest Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, U2, or REO Speedwagon?
Dascott -- 2 questions: (a) Did YouTube remove the Seperate Ways literal video, also, and (b) I'm hoping that you can E-Mai me the literal video that you made for me, since it's no longer on the internet, so that I have it for my own personal collection. Send me a message, please, if you can do this so that I can get you my E-Mail address.
@Born2bRedeemed Sony blocked Separate Ways in the US not long ago, and Read My Mind worldwide. I posted Read My Mind on Facebook (Glee Club of the Damned), but can email you a higher quality version, if you like. I'm trying to find my source file for Separate Ways, so I can put that on FB also. I've had trouble uploading *anything* to FunnyOrDie, so if anyone has an idea on what I may be doing wrong, let me know.
@dascottjr Im sorry to jump in here, but is there anyway I could get a copy of the Seperate ways Literal video also? it maybe the funniest thing I have ever seen. I have sworn to never buy another Sony product ever, I am really upset at them. Thank you
DAScottJr is so good at doing these videos that I bet he "Did it in a minute". :D
