Normal Salt Lays are the best chips i've ever tasted, but the quality differs so huge from package to package - some time periods, you'll only get bad batches, but they have the potential to be the best Chips in the world.
@@dunkelwelpling I try to table every chip debate i get into by reminding people that they most likely have never tried any of the millions of wacky and amazing chips the asian community has come up with, and until you've done that i don't think you've truly found your favorite chip.
@@qu1nnifer Indeed, i haven't tried those. I live in Germany and didn't try to get out of my way to import them. With asian chips do you mean Japanese?
I didn't think a song could grow on you so much during just the first listen. At first I was thinking "yeah okay, nice, but not particularly interesting", and by the end this Jacob Jeffries dude has solidly wormed that melody into my ear and heart.
Honestly, "key change into careful foot raise 1 into side squat into backwards careful foot raise 2 all while singing" is a combo that the world's best Street Fighter players couldn't dream of pulling off
This is exactly what I love about Vulf; just a couple of incredibly talented dudes creating music and having a fucking blast doing it. That joy is always so damn contagious.
Shout out to my former camp counselor crushing the vocals! Glad to see Jacob making great music still and having a great time while doing it. Mr. Jeffries, I Hope you still play with Jimmy, Brian and others from back then (06 - 08) and are taking good care of yourself :)
just got married this weekend just gone. my new husband on guitar and me singing, we made all the guests listen to us rattle this song out. it was perfect. love you guys love this song
Yea... the second I heard it the first time I was pleasantly surprised. Didn't think I'd replay it 100 times over the next two weeks. But here we are. Such a sneaker of an ear worm. Well done Jack and Jacob.... Jack Jacob Jingleheimerschmidt.
This song ran through my head for 12 consecutive days on a long distance hike I did in September. When I got spooked by bears, I started singing it out loud.
@@frandinhooooo1 "Listen" isn't exactly a compelling argument. You must be able to infer from context that we already listened and came to a different conclusion.
Love pretty much all of Vulf songs but this is my new favorite along with wait for the moment! They have a talent for finding incredible singers to accompany them.

Stratton making his case as one of the all time great songwriters in the key of Db. ...also kudos for taking the Vulf theme and sneakily using it as the intro, verse and outro 🤪
I wasn't immediately sold on the vocal affect, but the joy of this song is so infectious. I remember seeing Jacob open for an opener (if that's even a thing) at a show in Oakland several years ago, and it was the highlight of the night. Stoked to see him get more recognition.
The first time I heard this tune I was like, ok, this is cool. Now, 3 weeks later, I am of the opinion that this is one of the best songs ever written. One of the best. Ever. Something about the lyrics and composition just hits *different*. I mean I love Vulf and Jack is a genius, but this one is truly something special imo.
I don't know what it is about your voice and how you chose to do your sound for this song but it's seriously captivating. It has a familiar sound of some kind of older music I know I've heard before but can't quite remember. It's like what was lost was found here. I would buy a whole album of this style of voice.
After a few years of being a huge fan of vulfpeck and knowing Vulfmon is a creative respelling of Wolf Man, I just realized that, since his name is Jack Stratton, by being vulfmon, he has labelled himself Wolf Man Jack. Given Jack's encyclopedic knowledge of American music since the 1950s I think this cannot possibly be a coincidence.
2:22 he sings the wrong lyrics, but he's having so much fun and it's such a good take that they upload it and I'm all about it! Incredible song and a perfect take
I listened to this without looking at the video and really thought it was a black woman singing. Imagine my surprise when I looked at the screen, really the last face I was expecting with that voice haha. Love it 😊
Mr. Vulfmon, if you could pass along the request to Jack Stratton (of Vulf Records) to do one of his famous tutorials for this particular tune, I and all of music would greatly appreciate it. Hugs and kisses
I'm not sure what you set out to make but I'll be damned if this isn't one of the most pure and affecting performances I've ever heard. So much with so little. Just fantastic.
The Jacob Jeffries Band was probably the most important band to me when I was 16, and I somehow completely forgot about their existence for a good decade. Thanks for making great music JJ and thanks for bringing him back into my life Vulfmon Jack. What a nostalgic day.
yes yes yes yessss
You should invite them to the show on topic enjoying life!
Agreed!
spoken with your almost angry enthusiasm :D
Afternoon Mr. Wong
Love you Cory.
I feel like this song has already existed for 60 years
Hall and Oates got their start opening for Vulfmon
LITERALLY I FEEL LIKE THATS WHAT MOST GREAT MUSIC HAS IN COMMON BRO YESSSSSSS
Heck I swear I thought it was a cover
Exactly what I thought
I had to check whether it was a cover. Pretty awesome idea for a song, and the way he sings it just perfect
Not the voice I expected, but absolutely the voice I needed
I read this comment before he started singing and I was still surprised. Lol nice voice though. Reminds me of the parrot from Aladdin but like nice.
@@mcryan3890 hahaha YES. iago for the Win!
@@mcryan3890 RIP Gilbert
Well said. Cross between Bob Dylan and?
you and me both my friend, you and me both
This one one of those songs written so well that the first time you hear it you feel like you've known it forever
So. Well. Written!
I know what you mean. But sadly the number of people whose brains have been taught the literature in such a way as to make that possible is not growing like it did when dj driven radio was the dominant way of teaching.
Now, with the algorithms, it is more profitable to segment and engage individually, rather than broaden.
That's a great comment. Nice job.
Very well said! Such a wonderful tune.
Excited for the next vulf gig when everyone is wearing towels on their head.
Also this absolutely slaps
The Chilis have their socks, the Peck have towels. 👍
You should look up their performance at Levitate Music Fest
@@Gassyyetclassy Thanks! Just looked it up. I feel that they just came from a Devo-inspired spa day on that one. I'm here for it.
This comment aged beautifully - like fine wine😂😂 their performance at levitate music festival is iconic
ruclips.net/video/Yf6bis-eqFE/видео.html
The three stages of listening to this song on a loop
1) woah this slaps
2) omg this REALLY slaps
3) tears
4) transcend this mortal prison to ascend to the funk universe
4) Learn the keys part and can’t stop playing it
My stages were a various degree of smiles and whooping and raving like I'm at Baptist church
@@GaaMacgfx 5) Discuss celestial bass lines with the gods of funk
6) Write a song that's worth it about how much you love these guys
Somehow I knew by the chord structure that Jack was planning on wrapping it up with the classic Vulfpeck jingle
You can hear it in the verses! The top voice of the key part is the melody of the jingle
@@royh8528 Ahhhh I hear it now! nice find
@@royh8528 It seems so obvious after reading this, but I can't believe I didn't notice that until after reading this comment haha
They love putting it over those decorated resolutions. Sus4-Sus2-Maj. Church organ ending.
What a great voice from towel man
Towelmon*
its towel voice dampening attachment system
Jack often disappears into the band due to the structure of Vulfpeck. This song is a friendly reminder that the man is ridiculously talented.
jack "dancing in front" stratton?
And let's not forget that he composed 80% of the songs. The man is omnipotent
But he used the transpose button….
Just kiddin’ haha
Amen
@@barthvader4930 he's a shapes man!!!!!
The power stance right after the key change has just cured my depression (together with the rest of this absolute gem of a tune)!
If your ever feelin bad, just throw a power stance to some tunes.
i don't think vulf has ever released a song with a guest singer that wasn't absolutely blessed
Truth. It’s honestly amazing how perfectly they pair songs with guest artists. It always works perfectly
That’s the word dude haha blessed
2:22 that little chuckle omfg one of my favorite things about Vulfpeck is how they are always completely relaxed and laidback while playing God tier music it's insane. That's REAL musical talent.
He missed the lyrics but it turned out great.

At first I thought the voice was way too nasal but it grew on me quite a bit
INSTANT classic
I can’t stop singing this to myself and around my place
Perfect comment.

congrats! many songs to you two, for many years.
2:57 "it takes a big man to admit this, but i... press the transpose key on the key change"
and now i can see this
1:38 perhaps the greatest fill of all time
Seriously. I've been practicing it for hours and I can't master the beauty and power this fill is played with.

Perhaps??
You'll never remember the best drum solo you've ever heard but you'll never forget the worst
@@joshplaysdrums2143 there’s just so much going on there’s no way anyone but jack could replicate it
Jack smiling blissfully the entire time sends me
I think we can all agree that the soulfulness wouldn't be quite as zesty without the towel. Thank God for the towel.
I have the same towel that the dude is “wearing”, and I already feel so much better about myself. Thank you for putting that towel on.
the tiny hi-hat stand under the keys is the star of the show here
Thank goodness someone said it
lo-hat
He’s triggering a kick drum sample with his right foot too lol
They were what drummers used before Hi-Hats were invented, and was called a Low-Boy. :)

This song ran through my head for 12 consecutive days on a long distance hike I did in September. When I got spooked by bears, I started singing it out loud.
Damn
Thanks for the song
Did any of the bears answer? 😅😉
Bears: Someone's singing about salmon. We better investigate.
@@dacrewordsmithstrangely enough, the bears had the same song stuck too
They both were definitely enjoying that
This truly is taking minimalist funk to its extremes, stellar work
It's not really funk though is it?
@@BibleStorm true, it’s more soul with a keyboard and vocals , not quite funk
It is funk, listen
@@frandinhooooo1 not quite…
@@frandinhooooo1 "Listen" isn't exactly a compelling argument. You must be able to infer from context that we already listened and came to a different conclusion.
I just know that voice would make DELIGHTFUL gospel music
New Vulf is always something
But new Vulfmon is *everything*
It's been a minute
First time I heard this I was like "Hmm, okay." But now I keep coming back and back and its just brilliant.
Halfway through I realized jack was playing the drum sounds with his feet!
Nice stuff lads
It took half of this song to realize that the bass and high hat weren't added after. That was sweet!
Vulf never dissapoints. Still writing bangers consistently.
I’m so happy this song exists
Love pretty much all of Vulf songs but this is my new favorite along with wait for the moment! They have a talent for finding incredible singers to accompany them.
The Bon Scott vibe. Yes!
CHORUS
How much do you love me?
Tell me in a song

There's no right or wrong
Make up your melody
And the chords will hum along
How much do you love me?

VERSE I
You wrote me a poem
But I'm still not sure
You cooked me a dinner - salmon
And soupe du jour

Emotional labour
A stone cold hit
With my name in it

VERSE II
Well, my friends, they all love you
But I have my doubts
And I could see our future
With you swiffing my kitchen and cleaning the rest of my house
But there's still one thing that'll set you apart
To claim this open heart
You put the pen to the paper
Emotional labour
I need a stone cold hit
With my name in it
CHORUS
How much do you love me?
Tell me in a song
How much do you love me?
Tell me in a song _(with a chuckle as you realize these are not the right lyrics here)_

that reverb at 3:07 can be called a word: "Heartwarming" ❤️🔥
I can't stop thinking about this song despite it's simplicity
Maaaaaaaannnn. That's a song! I can't even figure out if the towel is performance art or mic sound related. LOVE IT
Love that Jack is just holding that stank face for the entirety of the song. Completely warranted.
Anyone from Jacob Keyboard?
I think His name is jacob
my current fav song
great to see someone on the same crazy level as jack himself
allround great song :)
Can't get enough of this masterpiece, specially the musical resolution of the last "how much do you love me", it really brought me to another epoch.

Can't get over the fact that this is the usual Vulf low-fi video in 4k. 😆
This song bangs
Jack has blessed us once again
I can't wait for when DJ Bean Ornish releases his solo record: Music for the Congo

Fact !
Not sure if you’ve checked since your comment, but your request has been granted!!
