[DrSpoon1991]

[reubenco]

Of course this is great music, but I love the video. Paul F. Tompkins, Tom Scharpling, John Hodgman... I love how Ted is involved with the alt comedy scene. "He died because he didn't believe in the power of punk" haha. The end is great. I saw TL/RX last night and their performance is sorta similar to that musical.

[pattycat100567]

CHRIS WILSON WHAT THE FUK HAPENNED!YOU HATED HIPPYS AND NOW YOU LOOK LIKE ONE//////////////FUKIN HELL

[ybrik222]

Weezer reference?

[BardinMarch]

285 told the bartender they thought they were falling in love.

[LoverrMyshades]

this video basically insulted all types of people.

[12345678ballz]

Paul F. Tompkins is God.

[heythereadam]

Once you go vinyl, your apartment smells.

[trishkillls]

This is the most creative music video ever!!

[fivedollarsworth]

..is that chris haslam?

[GreatLakesDrifta]

They played this to perfection in Chicago last night!

[ybrik222]

@GreatLakesDrifta

You mean the musical?

[GreatLakesDrifta]

@ybrik222 No, the city. They played at this free concert the city hosts in the summer called "New Music Mondays", although this being in Chicago the musical would be fitting, no?

[ybrik222]

@GreatLakesDrifta

I meant the musical as in Ted Leo's musical. :P

[wertyklom]

just saw them tonight for the first time. truly mesmerising

[bvolsky]

pretty sure Croesus was emperor of persia, not ancient greece. Sry.

[CowboyJakel]

hahaha awesome

[ChristophSullivan]

I spy with my little eye a clapping John Hodgman! And with a Paul F. Tompkins? The best!

[Trojan035]

TITUS ANDRONICUS FOREVER

[chesterdouglas]

The world really needs more Paul F. Tompkins.

[Talsadest]

This is the Open Mic night host from Tenacious D and the POD

[joehoracek]

Yes Titus Andronicus made an apparence. That made my night.

[knrose10]

What the hell did this video have to do with the song? I was looking forward to a really good political video....or at least something that references the lyrics....great song...great band....but an still wondering about the connection between the Video and the Song....someone want to fill me in????

[detharmy666]

6 people didnt believe in the power of punk

[HolidayKirk]

@AzerothianOwner Thats just awful.

[yJURAy]

[wmeers]

Somehow I missed this in all it's amazingness. LOVE TED LEO!

[TheAaronstone69]

paul f tompkins!

[infradig8]

This theme has been done before, but rarely so well...the critic leading the applause seemed alarmingly real

[chrisfinest1]

John Hodgman! And Patrick Stickles!

[MillerTivo]

and Terrre T! WFMU!!!

[eyehatepoker]

such an underrated, under talked about band...

[whitehall9]

@eyehatepoker Don't you get it??? That's what makes us cool for liking them! Shh!

[skydaplaya6]

Such a good song.

[zoompig]

John Hodgeman

[amrichter357]

TLRx were on Lookout when Green Day rescinded their rights to their debut album, forcing the label into bankruptcy. Nice, friendly dig.

[righthand3d]

@amrichter357 Lookout became a pretty poorly run label that wasn't paying its bands (Screeching Weasel, Avail, Neurosis, Pansy Division, Enemy You, Blatz, Filth, the Criminals, and the Riverdales all had problems getting royalty payments, too). Green Day had nothing to do with running Lookout into the ground... their music isn't something I'm interested in but they weren't responsible for keeping Lookout afloat. 

[amrichter357]

@righthand3d Agreed, but GD was the nail in the coffin. And painting them as sell-outs who are interested only in the money is fair.

[righthand3d]

@amrichter357 the way GD made their money and money for Lookout seems more than fair. They honored a handshake deal and put up with years of, well, theft, basically. Livermore was gone in 97 i think and the label just kept screwing up until GD took their records back. This isn't at all like Butthole Surfers and Touch & GO or ....Trail of Dead and Merge. Lookout ran itself into the ground and screwed over all it's bands--just b/c GD could afford to let it happen doesn't make it okay.

[SirHprdgn]

Ted Leo and the Pharmacists,Tom Scharpling, Paul F. Tompkins, Julie Klausner, John Hodgman, Terre T, AP Mike, Therese, the guy from Titus Andronicus....am I missing someone?

[zom13le]

Chris haslem?? i found you!

[ultrashuai]

Also, cameo from fellow NJan Patrick Stickles (Titus Andronicus) at 4:08, no?

[paulderev]

@ultrashuai I thought that's who that was!

[twentymooseman]

@ultrashuai YES! Loved that!

[ultrashuai]

I love that QVC HD is on the TV in the background at the beginning.

[GNYBerlin]

Entertaining every time! Prost from Berlin.

[Live2Skate727]

NO WAY! CHRIS HASLAM!!!

[LisasLullaby]

Nice. Sick video. Good music. Funny.

Check out “Shy,” the new song from Lisa Tucker (American Idol Top 10 Finalist, BET’s The Game, Nickelodeons Zoey 101) through Lisa’sLullaby channel! Be the first to hear it!

[Felujioboy]

Paul F. Tompkins FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[velvet1965]

a) this is a total nod to yo la tengo's "sugarcube" video.

b) it f*cking rules.

[eruption257]

He died because he didn't believe in the power of punk.

[mrberstein]

Does anyone else hear the "Bowie-like" feel?

[vek123]

totally shitting on green day. :)

[PayneSkillington]

@sudsysarahjane - Bring it on. It's awful.

[dylaanxo]

hey does anyone know if this is attacking green day's american idiot musical?

[Ponygirlification]

@dylaanxo i would say ted leo is totally trollin' on green day and i love it

[phsyker]

this made me laugh soooo much. :D

[revivethe90s]

Moral: Selling out will cause imminent death

[suziepunisher]

where is weird al? cause I can hear him!

[johnpeelfeel]

Follow me to money...

[hackmartian]

Just amazing

[daftrhetoric]

The beach ball is pretty funny; I don't know if that's a thing, but the two Ted Leo shows I've been to both involved kids throwing beach balls on stage incessantly.

[napoleonhansolo]

best music video i've seen in years.

[mrcrs10]

"he died because he didn't believe in the power of punk" haha

[williamlitzler]

This is the first music video I have watched in twenty years. Great job!

[killerdistiller]

"whuu's thess guy?" TAKE A WHISPERING CLASS.

[blcny4aghst]

The only thing that i didnt like about this was the subtitles during the music.

[217potato]

I do believe that this is the coolest music video ever made. A very happy and fun video. Thanks Mr. Leo and company.

[progmetalhead2112]

Dude, was that Patrick Stickles from Titus Andronicus in the crowd near the end?

[theragingbull14]

@progmetalhead2112 yes it was

[DonnyCaballero]

@progmetalhead2112 Yes.

[mikefiore6]

@progmetalhead2112 That's what I was thinking! 4:06

[sewage666]

Paul F. Thompkins and John Hodgeman are both funny, and I'm a fan of both. Green Day is obviously targeted in this video. I'm no fan of Green Day's music, but they support their local music community in Berkeley / Oakland, donating a sound system to historic 924 Gilman (their starting place) and more. Ted Leo is hanging out in L.A. with celebrities, mocking those with greater success, to pander to haters. Who is "cheap" now, "Ted"?

[DasBoogaloo]

@sewage666 I think he's not just targeting Green Day, but rather the whole movement of cheap Broadway shows in the vein of We Will Rock You, Rock of the Ages, and others that started with the lamentable Mamma Mia.

[kingmmm121190]

@sewage666 Dude the way these guys are all friends including the director is because of a little Free-form radio station show on WFMU called The Best Show with Tom Scharpling on which most of the cameos in the video are frequent guests. So to each other they aren't "celebrities" but good friends. So yeah. And I'm sure there are plenty of interviews online explaining their reasons for this joke.

[BoilingSkyFilms]

@sewage666 LA? This is entirely a New York deal.

[Pezmaster]

@sewage666

Did you just put "Ted" in quotations, as if to say, "If that IS your real name?!"

Pretty awesome video. A good match with the Colleen video, making the 2nd video of the album absolutely and utterly ridiculous.

[ChronoMojo]

Probably the best music video that I've seen in years. Not a single bad moment in it. Ted, the Pharmacists, and Tom Scharpling killed it. All involved killed it, actually.
