[leannevdp]

[leesha]

This is so funny! xD Plus he's got a great (gr8) voice!!!

[KazuoSensei]

[Sharell1807]

Oh Gatesy ... gotta love that voice!

[hwh0626]

This is a fucking good song!

[Odette321]

It's like a Southern US church service song! Halleluja!

[iamTehBagels]

@Odette321 its called blues music

[Darvinho9]

Haha brilliant song! back in the earlier days of phone text messaging...not like the iPhones of today!

[iluvag9]

I <3 the start of the song... I <3 Gatesy and his voice

[amessinger]

The great thing about this is that it was probably written with T9 in mind, but works just as well with the often goofy auto-correct feature on newer phones. :)

[kain50144]

holy shit that piano player just ripped my ear a new one with that solo.

[Ytrewq316]

I've probably watched this video at least once a week for about a year. It's definitely my favorite tripod song.

[31nitramk]

that piano blew my mind

[27LeBlanc619]

Can anyone out there give me the names of somes bands that play music like this? I don't mean like comedy but like good ol blues like this.

[shaeanne22]

WHYYY is he singing songs like this! I would pay money to him to sing real songs! his voice soo good!

[DeMyztikX]

@shaeanne22 These are real songs. A short musical composition with words. So yeah, real songs.

[shaeanne22]

@DeMyztikX I know, but i ment, A non comical type of song, Like a ballad or something?!

[thenewgenerator]

@shaeanne22 uhm ... cause he's doing something he likes and making money doing it ....

[shaeanne22]

@thenewgenerator Did I once say there was something wrong with it? No I didnt, I enjoy listening to there stuff, I was just expressing an opionion alrighty so no need to get ya panties in a twist :)

[madworldx9]

@shaeanne22 He was in a 'real' band called 'Kind of Pluto' They didn't do so well, though :-( Only released about 4 songs, But I agree he has a wonderful voice.

[glebber]

Can someone tell me if he is related to Chris Addison... anyone???

[marsflamesniper]

[zekenton1]

[kitchen8879]

omg you are all sooooooooooooooooooooo hot i love u tripod come to sydney

[nijitoeli]

who writes with out anymore, you can just write w. or w/

[wyrdojoe]

T9 is an option on some phones to have the phone guess what you are typing as you type it so that you only need to hit the number that the letter is on, and not hit the number until you've cycled through to the right character. It's what they reference when they cycle through to the right word.

[randomwerewolf]

I love this song but unfortunately it reminds me of the time when my brother dumped my best friend by text. Talk about getting caught in the crossfire.

[silkystreebzz]

[KidneyLove]

Oh, this absolutely my favorite tripod song!! Gatesy's facial expressions are the best :D

[xXchickadeeeXx]

hehehehehehehe...tis funni how they go through tha dictionary...lol

[Muglez]

I think I just got a little dumber. Just slightly, but a change none the less.

[xXchickadeeeXx]

its funni still lol...

[Muglez]

So, you're out to reduce my general intellegence as much as possible arent you? Between lack of punctuation and grammar, then your inability to spell, and then, for the icing on this cake of failure, the horrible to English.

Now, for effect, I'm going to write out that sentence with each of the things I listed added, then lastly with all of it. I hope you'll learn from this. Dear God I really do.

[Muglez]

"It's funni still lol."

"its funny still lol..."

"its still funni lol..."

"It's still funny lol."

While I'm here, I'll also correct myself on the accidental "to" I added between horrible and English in my above rant.

[xXchickadeeeXx]

bahahahahaha sorry to state the obvious...but ur quite funni...lol...friends?? lol....quite amusin fellow aint ya....

[Muglez]

Why are you so insufferably happy? I tried to insult you, but you just chuckled and tried to make friends. *facepalm*

[xXchickadeeeXx]

lol i am a positve positive person....lol...cant handle that can ya....nd i think ur quite amusin so thats y i wanted to be frends...o nd do u has a msn??

[xXchickadeeeXx]

wait...no...scrap that....im just used to bein insulted so it dont work much anymore

[jibblegit]

[ElectroFairiie]

[Muglez]

ElectroFairiie, you never fail to amaze me with your lack of knowledge about generally childish things, despite you being the youngest person on this entire website.

Everyone over the age of 10 knows text typing. Everyone also knows what a turd is. You really do piss me off.

[ElectroFairiie]

I Do Try !! =] yes im over ten but im a computer nerd not a text dork HAVE YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT im sorry im not educating in different meanings of "shit" ill try a bit harder in .. SHIT101 .. at school -.-
