Born Again Floozies "I Used To Play The Euphonium"

[Gossipnastar]

2:00 I slit my fart

[bdoggwith2gz]

The horn is a Conn "baritone" which isn't actually a true British baritone or a euphonium, but it's somewhere in between. Horns of this style are either called "American bored baritones" or "American bored euphoniums." I prefer calling it a euph simply because it's bigger and most "baritone" literature in concert band is actually meant for euph.

I used to play a similar Conn, but now I have a beautiful Yamaha 321 and I'm never looking back.

[timwimberrulz]

I pretty much love this. I wish i knew all the words, I'd cover this. I even have the tuba and tap shoes :P

[MattCoughlinGrowlers]

poor frog.

[MusicalEutopia]

The guy in the marching band uniform is playing a baritone... FAIL!

[enif9]

@MusicalEutopia haha to bad there the same thing :D

[MusicalEutopia]

@enif9 Do your research.

[enif9]

@MusicalEutopia alright you got me there they arent completly the same but, he is playing a euphonium.

[jcd484]

lol I play euphonium

[havepie]

Uhhh, thats a baritone.

[MitchMb14]

That looks kind of thin to be a euphonium. Are you sure it's not a baritone horn?

[BassClefKing12]

@mos94 yeah I hate it when trumpets or other small instrument complain their arms hurt! But awesome song!!

[rlv05001]

[joefon11]

i play the euphonium

[PVGroove]

WOW

i just love u

[mikeandtracy86]

great song and video... my kid played euphonium in a marching band, that actually wore the three corner hat and colonial uniform, this is totally hysterical...

[DUDExTHExSNAIL]

The euphonium basically is amazing.

My friend once described it as "a mini-tuba, but small" XD

[jeLLicleCaTt]

Lol omg Emi this song was effin' MADE for you... :)

[DUDExTHExSNAIL]

Haha...Totally. Except I still play it. Other than that, though.

[halsasaurus]

Superb. I have always struggled to explain to my mates what a euphonium is.

[YCoriginals]

Euphoniums have had such a bad press since Cliff Richards' accident, he obviously wasn't sure which end should be blown..good to see it back and proud! Euphoniums Of The World Unite!

[joefon11]

lol, im here and ready to play

[ilovecolinandbrad]

The guy with the tuba has a sexy hat. :D

[euphoniumpro]

I like this song since i also play the euphonium.

[ilovecolinandbrad]

I love the lead singers voice. He sounds like he's 19. It's cool to listen to.

[euphonium38]

Wonderfull song bravo !!!!!

[VercingetorixRex]

check it out: these marching band kids did their own video to this song! Search "I used to play the euphonium".

[theshalles]

Oh, wow...I love how all the related videos are of euphoniumists playing Super Mario Bros. Theme...

I take offense to Mario Bros. being the anthem of the euphonium player

[WindTunnelMiroku]

like forreals man

[stickerburr]

Yay! I play Baritone/Euphonium for Terra Nova High school in Marching band, Field show, and Concert! Look us up!

[superpunkmuffin]

That was great Floozies! We've got a fancy new Euphonium in our hard rock band, distorts beautifully, really punchy sounds (through a valve amp )... great to see another band use one too, we love 'em, and they look great live... though a classical player we know gets a bit upset with our metal approach to brass ;) Cheers, yer legends :) Brigs, a Super Punk Muffin

[euphoniumsattack08]

yeessss! YEEESSSSSS!!!!

my theme song from now on!

[Slinkywheel]

I play Euphonium in band lol

[mtzimmerman]

the shot of the marcher at the end of the video reallllllly looks like he's holding a baritone. What's this baritone/euphonium you speak of?

[TuBaMoFo]

why was there a shot of the Eupho without valves?

[floozies]

it is a shot of the back side of the instrument, underneath the valveset.

[TuBaMoFo]

thankee. that confused me a bit. i love the stuff. although this year i only marched marching baritone for about a week. back on sousaphonium.

[Danc3ParTy]

@TuBaMoFo llol

[CozBoz2]

What's with the back to front brass instruments? We press our valves with our right hands here in the UK. :P

[WindTunnelMiroku]

thats how they all were, just cuz ur in uk doesnt mean ur special

[CozBoz2]

I didn't say I was special...

I was merely commenting on the fact, not saying that our way is better or anything...geez!

[floozies]

Hey CozBoz2, the horn is a 1925 Conn Baritone/Euph. The valves are right handed, its just that they are front facing. Cheers from overseas!

[sveltpietaster]

I don't know what the hell is that but I like it.

[SixStringMonster07]

DAMN!!!!!!! Finally, we non-jocks are vindicated!

[anubis48327]

Sweet. Euphonium Power

[KurtNilsen]

GEEK ANTHEM YOU SAY??!?!!?!?

[jdhambone]

YEAH!!!! I play the Euphonium professionally. sweet tune.

[etherdude]

Love it!~ A Euphonium player!!!!

[hydeuphonium]

wasn't this originally by the las vegas body snatchers?

[floozies]

yes, Joe Welch wrote it when he was in the body snatchers, so he has migrated a few songs from a few of his projects into the band.
