Shop Vac

[nightmare95863526]

anyone else here a radio in the background?

[Gebert11]

i hate the ending lol, the rest was awesome

[sponks12]

The song took a dark turn at the end :0

[Kalbaloo]

I think that it is great that you made a channel dedicated to Mr. Coulton

[RAFOomph]

i wounder it dr martin wears doc martins? 

[wowimonimo]

havent even heard a talk with George XD

[Nynne130]

you can call but i wont hear cuz' it's loud when i hear Shop Vac

[IIN00B3DPR0]

Lol... Dr Martin again!

[FreyaJanssonSalonen]

NOOOO! That rope is too small for him!! It won't hold on enough :S

[Hollow479]

notice the vid for 'i feel fantastic' on the tv?

[Kurjad279]

A few names, Homer Simpson, Al Bundy, and the family from "a christmas story."

Enough said.

[themutantgerbil]

the gnome commet suisside on T-V

[DearHunterFan15]

"All the Passion and Joy Drained From your Life" Welcome to World of Warcraft. :)

[Moreththerogue]

Thank goodness Dr Martin was there to help the poor lady through her time of trouble.

[deathslayer1997]

I love these songs, and the video's are so morbid. I love it. But not as much as the good docter by the window.

[We3Noobs]

Dr Martin has ruined another god damn relationship x(

[theracody4]

@We3Noobs not his fault. the wife probably called him because of her husband's shop vac..

[kaboom6801]

@pokygirl2001

A shop vac isn't from WoW, a shop vac is pretty much a vacuum that people use in workshops to clean sawdust and other materials off of the ground from when they're building.

[Pokygirl2001]

So guys, for someone who doesn't play WoW, what is the shop vac?

[We3Noobs]

Sad:(

[Wrightshire]

This is -dark-.

[thegreatninjaman]

you should do Want You Gone. its a great song.

[Wrior]

MR. FANCY PANTS WHY DID YOU LEAVE THEM?!?!?!?!

[wellguesswhatIthink]

I just googled shop vac, and....is it just a vacuum cleaner for the workshop? laaame

[ThisisBosaccount]

@wellguesswhatIthink It's not lame because its just a vacuum cleaner for the workshop -_- It's a metaphor for the extra features included in suburban homes so people buy them, but when they do the suburbs will slowly suck out their souls (like a shop vac) untill they eventually just get drunk, stare at the walls, and wait for their kids to leave them. I personally don't have anything against suburbs, and I have friends and relatives who live in them, but its a helluva metaphor dontcha think? :)

[wellguesswhatIthink]

@ThisisBosaccount yeah.....I guess that's a good metaphor. but it's just not very well integrated with the song. if it was some kind of power tool or work bench it would make sense why it soaks up so much of the guy's time and attention, but a vacuum cleaner? I dunno, I guess it was just the disappointment that strook me

[ThisisBosaccount]

@wellguesswhatIthink Actually, I think it is a creative way to say that something as small as a fancy vacuum cleaner can entice people into selling their souls for better appliances. But then again I might be overthinking it.

[Iluvkauz]

I don't know why everyone complains. I love Durotarbucks. If anything there need to be more!

[rpresser]

The suburbs don't drain your soul. There's just as much heartbreak and despair in the city as in the suburbs. It's just that people move to the suburbs thinking it's the answer, but it's not. It's just an external change.

[ThatUndeadGuy666]

I got that "all the joy and passion drained from your life" achievement when I got max level and the questing became pointless :/

[420smyholiday]

HAHA i remember having an orc like urs a few yrs ago when i actually played :D

[DuRaGonz999]

i hear man voices .... in the video is that you ???

[sarenarim]

@DuRaGonz999 u did to?! ok that was rlly creepy lol all of a sudden i heard sounds so i paused the vid and the voices stopped....but then static started after a few mins of the man voice O.o lol

[whiteravengirl20]

Dude! That was the elf from Betty and Me. He really gets around. o.o

[WoWKnobbs]

@nsonger I thought that was part of the song :p, i have no idea because i've never seen the original video (if there even is one) but what i thought is that maybe in the original video the guy was sleeping with the T.V still on (when i sleep with the T.V on i can still hear it in my head). Ofc, Spiff could have purposely inserted that himself for the same reason.

[SpitFireShorts]

wtf is a shop vac

[Skaullz]

@SpitFireShorts vaccum cleaner

[xplode35]

watchin dr.who at 0:51

[everyoneintheworld80]

why did Mr. Fancy Pant leave!?!?

[WellPlayedTV]

Spiffwood, I can't find out if JoCo makes songs anymore.. Can you verify this?

[spiffworld]

@WellPlayedTV He's working on a studio album right now, which is why he hasn't been posting new stuff online. Latest word is that it'll probably be after the summer before the album will be ready for the world.

[falconx321]

@spiffworld to verify I was at a concert just yesterday and he played some of the songs coming in his new album :D

[MrAsmil]

@spiffworld wow thanks for the infoXD.

[yhmmot]

@spiffworld our bodies arent ready for his music

[Squishlemonking2]

@WellPlayedTV hahaha nice mate you called him SpiffWOOD ololol

[Vashthestampdee]

Portal 2 has his newest song, Want you Gone.

[IamIndeedLayingAnEgg]

@WellPlayedTV "Spiffwood" lol.

[LuminityBand]

@WellPlayedTV joco aint gonna stop making songs :)

[MegaEllerman]

Dr.Martin is a manwhore

[AereliaOfTheCrows]

@MegaEllerman

Agreed. That's why we love him so much.

[meteor1422]

Spiffrules!

[joshhowardable]

your a really good machinima maker =D

[coolfulme123]

who talking every time i watch this i hear some one talking what the heck!

[TheShadow7771]

lol, the TV shows his other videos. Otherwise, it's quite dark.

[Xevailo]

I really like your interpretation of the song and the more explicit actions your characters make (like the gallows at the and) :)

[Bonja82]

Make a video out of Make You Cry PLEEEASE I beg of you :( Its so sad and still refreshing song :3

[LicensetoIL]

so high on dxm and cant stop crying to this vid + song its so fucking depressing no way am i gonna leave my lifeto turn out like this ill kill myself before that happens

[Supdogification]

can you make an "a talk with george" video? i really like that song :)

[spiffworld]

@Supdogification I like that song a lot too. I've tried to think of a way I could make a video for that one and haven't been able to come up with anything I think it satisfying. Sorry. :(

[ourher0]

@spiffworld IMO you could use Harrison Jones for "a talk with George" video. That'd be interesting.

[forsurenoob]

@spiffworld did... the orc die at the end? that's quite sad.

[MrChapwhit]

@spiffworld i have an idea for it but i doubt it would be any good, i would try using all the leaders in Warcraft, talking to a WoW player each being named "george" and having them accepting crazy/ weird quest. "tall thin man" (Vol' jin), he tells you he was born into some money (Wynn) and fighting bulls in Spain (Hellscream), make a magazine (Silvanis), and ect. I have seen some funny quest and this could make fun of a few, well that's just my two cents, doubt you will read this. XD

[sarenarim]

@MrChapwhit uhm... its Wrynn for the king of sw..... lol i have no life :P

[adamtried]

@spiffworld I think the video will be best of being used with screen shots with the style of photos through out the video.

[vampire180again]

@spiffworld i know these posts are old just a tad. but an "A talk with George", Could take place in the part of wow called Stranglethorn Vale. Sounds like it to me

[TheWeirdAmateur]

What does the throne mean? Is is suppose to be Thrall?

[nsonger]

Did anybody hear that talking in the part where he's floating above his house in his head?

[BrandonB00M]

whats a shop vac?

[shawnee126]

someone kill that damned night elf!

[MrCheeseWire1]

Did the orc actually suicide?

[rozar142]

@MrCheeseWire1 Yes :(

[TheKisukeUrahara]

that damn doctor

[Gauldoth]

2:20 That "achievement" drives the point of the song home with the subtetly of Arthas containing a zombie plague... and that's a good thing in this case.

[MimeSlayer1337]

i like daiquiris.

[JagEterCoola]

Did he hang hiself?

[Allyosaugh]

@JagEterCoola Yes.

;_;

[MissWihllola]

i love this thing please make an ikea one

[Andymann9700]

Dr Martin: "Gigity gigity goo!"

[attila535]

Dr. Martin is a shame to tthe night elven society

[HPEJuggalo93]

@attila535 yes he's a shame to gay looking hippy elves ^^ the standard was really high

[Kesh789]

1:51 tv i feel fantastic please thumb up if you l knew and please respond

[OldCompanyNewCompany]

Am I frigging insane or is there a newscast in the background...

[tejaswoman]

@OldCompanyNewCompany The fact that there really are bits of a newscast in the background proves nothing whatsoever about your sanity.

[adamtried]

@OldCompanyNewCompany I was worried at first when it was playing, but than I paused it and it stopped than I was like phew.e

[Volton75]

@OldCompanyNewCompany yeah i hear it too

[dikkefis]

o:16 wolf from first of may - 0:52 dr. skullcrusher and the monster from live- 1:17 the old mr fancy pants - 1:30 manager rob - 1:52 the dwarf from i feel fantastic -

2:00 grandpa of tom cruize - 2:51 wife of tom cruize ''katy'' - 3:16 dr. martin :D

[THLyneborg]

what´s a shop vac?



[1notdeadfred]

@THLyneborg its like a vacuum cleaner. look at the info spiff posted.

[DtDust]

@THLyneborg

Shop vacs are what they use in carpenters shops and places like that that produce a lot of sawdust or spills.

They suck up like, literally ANYTHING, wet, dry, whatever

[adamtried]

@DtDust So an expensisve hoover?

[bbqjt]

Dr. Martin is kind of a man whore, huh?

[TheRmbomo]

11 people got barfed on.

11 people are with Dr. Martin.

11 people cant hear you with the shop vac on.

[TheRmbomo]

1:31 they were neighbors with Boring Manager Rob?

[vpew]

33 people are suffering from suburban angst...

[tigeriron1]

god damnit dr martin

[nybotheveg]

2:25 and a bit forward there are some weird background sound. it sorta sounds like the news telling about adds and a 49 man having been murdered by a shotgun

[donald12998]

LOL i love the achievment at 2:18 "all the joy and passion drained from your life" classic! oh and NVanWendy a nuece is a rope you hange yourself with

[TheGhostinthenight]

Noose I believe? the thing he hung himself with.

[Worldofwarcraftchic1]

Dr. Martin FTW

[alexxerth]

Finally watched the entire thing and saw the nuece.

[NVanWendy]

@alexxerth And a nuece is what, exactly?

[chrysus]

You run ads during these songs? Pretty sure that's a violation of the creative commons license.

[stevethepocket]

@chrysus I'd bet that's YouTube's fault. They stick ads on videos once they get enough views without asking.

[Nerevar8592]

1:29 SUCK ON THAT, ROB, YOU BORING, VINDICTIVE ASSHOLE!

[Auriansmule]

Dr. Martin strikes again!

[superrangerkid1997]

@Auriansmule Where?

[hrpip]

wow thats kinder dark :/

[TheRmbomo]

.... He barfed on boring manager Rob.

[starwarrule]

ARGH! Why can't I figure out what that news caster (I assume) is saying in the background from 2:25 to 2:57...All I hear is "In Local news an unidentified 49 year old man" "Shotgun" and what I believe is a woman crying...I get that the guy probably commited suicide (as in the video) but I'd like to know what it says...Can anyone help?

[lucanorian]

@starwarrule "A forty-nine-year-old, unidentified man went berserk last night, opening fire with a twelve-gauge shotgun in a crowded, downtown..."

[TheRmbomo]

What is everyone saying? I can't here you with the Shop Vac on!

[chrysus]

I like the middle school book report style essay at the end of the song. I never knew what the song was about before!

[Bladeruler86]

you do realize a shopvac is a vaccum right?

[anamoebacorn]

@Bladeruler86

Yes, he does. He talks about it in the description. When was the last time you saw a vacuum in the World of Warcraft?

[Respectthegore365]

2:20 i got that achievement when i first logged into wow....

[SkeletonRuler]

does tht Dr date every1

[yesiinhale]

33 people have had all the joy and passion drained from their lives.

[anamoebacorn]

Ahh... this is in part the sequel to "The Misadventures of Dr. Martin; PhD in LUVIN!"

[Shadow632478]

omg fancy pants and DR.MARTAIN NUH

[21liliah]

Why was he gonna hang him self o.0?

[funkster10676]

Dr. Martin is cheating on Betty!!

[yavannajune]

@funkster10676 Dr. Martin is a bad bad man. Hes in nearly all these songs with all these women.

[JakeRonYT]

I know this is all about Jonathan Coulton and all, and I totally dig his stuff, but man... I bet if I had his band working with me I'd be able to make some amazing songs as well. That guitar in particular gets me every time. It's so subtle, but the song wouldn't be half as good without it.

Seriously guys, I know the text is awesome on it's own, but I see a lack of respect for the music that makes it shine. =P

[spiffworld]

@JakeRonYT Coulton this song doesn't use a band. It's Coulton, all by himself in a closet in his apartment in New York, playing all the instruments and mixing them together. In fact, just about all his songs were made like that. He only recently started working with an actual band.

[sonic4everpeople]

@spiffworld umm i heard voices that werent jc's in the middle of the video and it wasnt my house cuz everyone was asleep and no tv was on so...wtf were the voices?

[anamoebacorn]

@spiffworld

Oh yeah now that I read the comment again after half a year I finally remembered that in this song, a guy named Vincent Reynolds did the guitar solo after the first two choruses. Jake wasn't right about the whole "band" thing, but several Thing-a-Week songs had some help from outside sources.

[Mellow137]

@spiffworld Wow I never knew that. I respect JoCo a little more now.

[1notdeadfred]

@JakeRonYT probably true, but personally i mostly dig his lyrics

[SSoldieRIP]

well i wont pay attention to such butt ugly whore too :) wheres my cute little m110

[Dvalinor]

@MrCornCow I certainly hope you mean shaking xD

[harrym190]

why r the kids vibrating? :P kinda confused

[IcarusKidd]

Nooo shop vac guy, dont do it :(

[Mysticalmetal]

'Cause it's loud with the Shop Vac on.

[TheDiadara]

omg so sad ;(

[silentblacklist]

An unidentified 49 year old man went berzerk last night and opened fire with a 12-gauge shotgun in a crowded downtown...

[spinster65]

theres a radio on in the background serves me right for having headphone on really load but just because i love the song i turned it loud!!!! yeah!

[Tealia]

I shared this video to my Urban Sociology Prof and he loved it xD

[UndesiredDeath]

Damn Dr. Martin. He's killing of more orcs as we speak D:

[TheAmontez]

"everything seems great until they begin to realize that there's NOTHING to do in the suburbs except go to strip malls and eat at chain restaurants and wait until the kids grow up and leave you."

according to the video there's dr. martin to do xD

[undeaddog]

lol spanner storm

[littlemangriff]

[andyllamanipl]

This video is so fucking awesome. This song is do fucking awesome. JoCo is so fucking awesome.

[thegreatninjaman]

@MrAsmil Why can people, STILL, not spell achievement? It isn't hard. There is no fucking "r". You've confused the word "Archive" with "Achieve". Fucking learn to spell >:(

ARGH!

Anyway, with that nerdrage out of the way, I bloody love this song...Makes me rather sad mind you lol

[sporeboy2]

and dr martin reminds me of john redcorn

[Awsomesauce22]

THAT FUCKING NIGHT ELF! He's stealing "I feel Fantastic" and Code Monkey's girls! That fucking man-whore D'=... I'm not surprised that he paided for his wife to cheat on him with Dr. Martin....... I mean... he's probally cheating on Betty with 8 womyn whilst Betty is cheating on him.

[burento4]

hahahaaha!!! i loled at 1:30 xD so funny
