Bobby Conn KING FOR A DAY (CD Version)

[RhapsodosAStrigidae]

If he took the song seriously, it would be a good song; but because it is a satire about the homeless, it is just tasteless. The satire makes is a hipster bar act.

[delcomurf]

fucked up

[06hatter]

What kind of an asshole could ever click the downvote button on this video?

[BlastProcessingGames]

"I'M BACK AT MY JOBBB" ohh nooo.

[21Lilamanda]

How high are these people

[maxinemon001]

57 people like kylie .

[ElCalvo45]

If Bobby Conn were a music industry suck-ass kowtowing to a shite big label, and somehow managed to get this one pushed past the hyperproducers unscathed, it would have been a major hit.

[maxinemon001]

its like i found the chicken ... now i know where all the eggs came from ...

[icraplazers]

Every time i hear that chorus i get goosebumps. I just.. agh

[JHONN77]

ME PARECE QUE ESTE ES UN GRINGO QUE LE GUSTA MUCHO EL WEBEO JAJAAKJSDJKKASJKDASDASSD

[planetofthescums]

[AnvilDeluge]

vivaconn

[numb3r5ev3n]

A of mine introduced me to this artist's music last week. I don't think I've heard anything more genuine. This is awesome and now I want to see more.

[JonRob2109]

Bobby Conn rocks. That is all

[LuisEduardo1994]

Gay...

[TheDBER]

People either love Bobby Conn or they hate him...they either 'get it' or don't. I think he's brilliant and the music is special....really I do. Very collectable albums.

[MrBillieTom]

cos'è stà robbaccia???

[MrBillieTom]

cos'è stà robbaccia???

[HappyDeadBeaver]

Love some Bobby Conn!

[KimsCS124]

Wtf is this shit?

[punkadelikdude]

wtf

[GloriaxArmstrong]

so i typed in king for a day, searching for the green day song, and i found this. a man in drag.

not too different from green day's version i guess.

[unknowncapability]

whoa...this is fucking amazing! 

[redplague]

I'm sorry but I just can't take this seriously.  I thought that was the point of it but given people's comments about it this guy is serious?

[noobnoob31]

uhh i was expecting Green day=,(

[mejusthappyrobot]

This song kicks so much ass. I'm blown away by this guy's music.

[Musicfourme]

haha i thought it was tre in drag. Woops!

[FengharTheNord]

Bobby Conn is probably one of my Top Ten favorite artists of all time. I hope to one day hide his music from my children :)

[nicg2]

If you want green day then go and find it, do you have to leave a comment here?

[evo9464]

i wanted green day :'(

[greendaynumba1fan]

i agree! wth is this! :'(

[vaasnaad]

BOBBY CONN RULES, BITCHES!!

[circlejosh]

is this the shamwow guy?

[tjkleinschmidt]

i don't hate them cuz of the fans only, yeah they are gay but the music sucks also

yeah greenday has lasted but they havn't progressed very much. they still sound the same and sing about the same things just in different words. yeah we know the government sucks you don't have to make 20 songs about it. they make those songs so they get on the radio and people are like wow this band knows whats going on cuz they are singing about exactly waht i think. well no shit anyone can do that

[trella629]

Id like to see you try.

[greatstudios]

WTF??? This is a gay song xDxDxDxDxD

[tjkleinschmidt]

green day?!??!

wtf green day sucks

if you like green day you don't listen to good music

[teddyv7]

how can u say greenday sucks they have a giant fan base and theyve been big for 22 years, how many bands have actually done that, RHCP the beatles, the stones, and the who, not many others. true greenday sold out, but they deffinitly dont suck

[tjkleinschmidt]

cuz all the ppl i know who like green day suck. and how many bands can do that? the grateful dead were around for 30 years with out stoping. the only time they would stop touring and playin music was when someone in the band died and they took like a mounth break. phish has a huge fan base and they have been around for over 20 years and alot of other bands. allman brothers widespread panic....

[teddyv7]

you cant say a band sucks because you dont like the people who are fans, and there is no doubt the classic rock era was one of the best, but very few pop bands can last/progress like greenday has

[PerennialLucidity]

progress? from junk to uninformed political junk?

anyone who needed frickin' billie joe armstrong to let them know that bush sucked deserved everything he did.

[greendaynumba1fan]

wtf is ur problem?

[rosariorelok]

green day, as well as bobby conn, they are great! fuck off...

[LiiKeXLoVE]

okay.... dieses lied ist echt SCHEIßE, aber im titel sthet nirgendwo was von vegen green day.. aslo sind diese kommis nutzlos....

[zetterberg]

this is crap-devoid of self examination. King for a day, Fool for a lifetime....ricochet by faith no more. Now that is an album and song.

[mrnutle]

HEY BOBBY CONN FUCK YOU, I HOPE YOUR FAMILY PERISHES AWAY AMONGST THE FLAMES OF HELL. I ALSO HOPE YOU RUN OUT OF EYE SHADOW

just kidding, this is a great song and i respect bobby conn so much

[bigkev1117]

You're right Bobby Conn...You are just a dreamer and a self made man. Oh, yeah....and a self made retard and are only worth being on YouTube and nothing more! And this video is a total rip-off!!!!!!

[felo103]

This video is the same as Queen's videos, please be original, Freddy is only one.

[kleenexliliput77]

listen this song one time for day

[fyrepony81]

what a fag.

[BananaHurricane]

Does this guy ever take that track suit off?

[ctautube]

this guy reminds me of BECK. ive been to some whack shows in Chicago's speak easy scene and Bobby Conn fits right in with ALT music scenes and underground non mainstream sound. i bet he OD's on coke before getting a record deal.

[mistertolerance]

hmmm... to put it plain and simple: the man is a genius. and dont misunderstand me, im not posting this `cause i wanna provoke some wannabe-musicknowitall-faggot so we can start hurlin` shit at each other anonymously. i just really like bobby conn`s sick and twisted, but deliciously original music and point of view. thats all, thx!

[funChick84]

EXCUSE ME WTF R U DOIN?

[mzzh]

this guy should hit the road with jan terry for a tour (if they're alive that is...i hope)

[tourettesguy1234]

lmao Jan terry...

[dylansdad65]

If you took David Bowie, Marc Bolan, and Mick Jagger, put them in a washing machine, turn the setting on SHIT for 45 minutes, that's this guy!

[slayer544]

hahahaha well said

[deguimeraUSA]

lmao! You got that shit right!

[benja691]

HAHAHA! Fucking AMEN!

[smurfthumper]

You probably meant this as an insult, but that's not how I am taking it.

[typeanoise]

this is so lame.

[CPluver22]

[baxter4lyf007]

[Deoceres]

I love how he's wearing more makeup than her XD all the scenes on the little ship thing are undeniably awesome - I love this guy!

[magstoriches]

awesome song. I like this video a lot better than the party version.

[DollyToto]

This is fucking amazing

[lol8lol8kill]

wow this is gay

[Ella1464]

Absolutely brilliant! One of my favourite Bobby Conn songs and a terrific video. This man just gets better and better, imo. Thanks for uploading the clip. :)

[absoluteMK]

Interesting and wondering why people haven't decided to turn Bobby into some cult figure or is he already!? The lyrics have a double meaning or just a straight forward one! but I think perhaps it would have more airplay here if he fitted into a neat box. He doesn't which is why he is appealing in different way.

[absoluteMK]

Watched this on and off since I first watched it here. It's so simple and yet brilliant. Bobby Conn has such presence. The bit at the start where he wears a crown and is on the ship.Reminds me of Tony Curtis when dressed as a woman in the movie 'Some like it hot'. Like the bit about the cardboard throne.

[mistic0017]

Are you serious? This is the dribble of a self-righteous self-appointed counter-culture hipster. Did you listen to Never gonna get ahead? Another total load of crap... Because you know what, I've gotten ahead saying yes to the man. Bobby Conn sucks, and if I ever see him whilst walking the streets of Chicago I'm going to greet him nicely and then kick him square in the bean-sack.

[absoluteMK]

It's all tongue in cheek ;-)

[midsections]

hey there mistic0017 why don't you have any info or favorite videos? if you hate this i'd like to see what you like. not to judge you but cuz i'm curious. don't hide, be a cyber-man.

[quadrophrenic]

meh, it's still good music. don't discredit it based off something irrelevant like its "hipster" value.

also: american's who say "whilst" are so stupid.

[nubhed]

Sorry we don't have terrible teeth, and use simple words because you can't figure out how to speak the most retarded language in the world like you Eurofag.

[maryhinge]

And you wonder why most of the world hates Americans?

[quadrophrenic]

you're retarded. I'm american. "whilst" is british english, and when an american says it it sounds horribly, horribly pretentious.

[quadrophrenic]

meh, it's still good music. don't discredit it based off something irrelevant like its "hipster" value.

also: american's who say "whilst" are so stupid.

[garbage63]

I really get sick of all of the people on youtube that are somehow unable to understand creative satire and subtle sarcasm and begin to attack it. Bobby Conn is among the most diverse and creative satirical musicians still making music, and just because you don't take the time to understand it doesn't mean you have any reason to be a jerk to the people who apreiciate it.

[Bice404]

Cool, that looked like some party.

[heystopwiththattv]

david bowie-esque

[chefkiku]

I liked the previous cut of this video a little bit more, but still, great visual effect, and great song especially when it kicks in at around 2:45.

[LiLtheFish]

I thought this was the beginning of a Kids in the Hall sketch.

[rkay51]

Bobby Conn is great. Seeing him live tomorrow night for the first time since 2002, can't bloody wait!

[Joyshillaker]

did you have a good time?

[rkay51]

Yep he was really good. Last time i saw him he got very involved with the audience, came down to sing in amongst us and interacted a lot, and he didn't do that this time. That was not quite as good, but the energy was still there, and the quality of the songs is superlative! He played the whole new album (except "punch the sky" and "things") and finished with Cashing objections and baby man. Thoroughly recommended if you get the chance. The new album keeps getting better with every listen too.

[nerraw11]

I think his debut album is his finest hour and the new album is sadly his weakest. But this song king for a day is one of the best songs he ever done in my opinion. I like bobby best at his most dangerous though. Like no kids and no money and axis 67 part 3. But the new album still shits on most of todays music.

[mansylanzy]

hahahahahaha good one

[teed666]

Bobby Conn is Fantastic !!!! This Is NOT as GOOD as the Golden Age Or Homeland But F..Kin Rad! Word

[TheCrippledSilence]

This is fantastic, of course. But I had no idea Bobby Conn had so many illiterate followers. Someone break out the ointment, their knuckles must be sore from dragging along the ground all day. Sry LOL like ic but cant is guy gay orz??!? ROFLMAO!!!1!!!11!

Jesus.

[gothmog420]

Reminds me of early Bowie. Obvious, i know, but i like it.

[buffel1]

Queen for a gay...

Well, not bad at all, but it looks a bit like a neighbour with a cheap camera and a computer did the video.

Maybe just part of the 70's look?

[SprigScar]

Yeah,I'd agree.Musically interesting but with no real direction.Had some good parts but when you started to get into the rhythm,it's mood changed.Waiting for the hook was like fishing.But who the hell am I to say.I work at (plug)'HOTDOG ON A STICK'.

[ommadawn4]

musically interesting.

[ninie49]

i ador his make-up

[soro22]

hmmmmm... sry didnt like

[iz1012]

Cool vid. I must say though, please don't have anyone else burn money when your filming. Just give it to me thank you.

[didatita2006]

don't kno why, feel so special abt it, can;t c i love it, but i don't hate it 4 sure, awsome idea, awsome make up, u ppl brilliant

[elektro7tube]

I like it! you are out frame, I dont care if look gay, it does not make the difference.awsome.

[annaleevega]

[dancehabibi]

:)

[HORNProducer]

Freakin' BRILLIANT! It's always fun to watch people NOT "get it."

[canguder]

[MaxwellsDemon2000]

semi-professional-professional­, sixties and then back to ugly office-job, liked it!

[caheylin]

this song is terrible, and the cinematography is even worse. any one who thinks its good is a complete idiot.

[wormword]

I didn't know I was a idiot. Thanks for telling me. Just think I could have gone my whole life without knowing I am an idiot. I just thank god for people like you who tell the truth.

[dhans462]

brilliant song, brilliant director, brilliant

[joneshiro]

[fillthy]

Very rocky horror picture showis...

[morton27]

[ReductioAdAbsurdum]

Kinda fun song...but holy christ... the video...

[gamoonbat]
