Hi Mary Just wanted to thank you publicly for this huge shout out. Unbeknown to us some one at that gig videoed that song and put it on their Facebook! And now thanks to you it’s been viewed beyond belief! Anyway thanks again for your support. Chris Shady Brain Farm
It shows the impact of guitar/musician RUclips that an almost unknown band in New Zealand wrote a song incorporating Mary Spender and Rick Beato. Well done...and congrats Mary! You are now even more famous!
The beauty of being a NZer is we like to know what's going on everywhere else because we can't just drop in easily. So yes, some of us watch you fairly often along with Rick, and Netherlnd Bach, and Brit comedians. You are part of our international cultural appreciation.
This happened to Rodriguez, but it was South Africa. If you missed it, see it. Well, not sure there were songs about him, but he was a legend there, loads of boot leg albums, label banking his royaties, presumed dead by nearly all the fans.
At first I thought it was either a naming coincidence, or a play on the name off the phrase 'want to spend time with you'. But then he dropped he Beato line and NOPE! Mary's got Kiwi Fans! We definitely need a cover from Mary and Rick together. lol
Catchy tune! My wife is going to give me strange looks as I walk around the house singing, "Mary Spender, Mary Spender, I wanna spend my time with you". You have to send this to Rick so he can do a "What Makes This Song Great" video!
That is an old "Yardbirds" trick from 1965. The Yardbirds would always through the middle of the song go from 4x4 to 7x8 time up tempo. Then they would return to the original tempo for the last verse. ( not the Beatles).
Legend has it the Beatles' Helter Skelter originally said 'Mary Spender' in place of 'Helter Skelter' but that version was unreleased. Just like this lost song of theirs.
Supposedly, most of The Beatles' songs were originally about Mary Spender, but their record label forced them to use other names "for the sake of originality". The band also wanted to be called The Beatos, but the pun on 'beetles' was too good to resist in an era when the Volkswagen Beetle was trendy.
I can totally hear George Martin saying something like that in his best diplomatic constructive criticism voice. " It's a great song, John. Really spiffy. Perhaps, we should try with another name, for originality's sake" @@InventorZahran
That really is super sweet. You can tell that they are sincere guys. Probably dads, and are genuine fans of Mary. They’d buy you a beer at their bar gig. Awesome all around.
Good afternoon Mary and friends! I am not surprised that you have fans in Auckland. Heck, you even have one here in this tiny town near Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, USA. How I heard about you? You had done a duet with Leo of Frog Leap Studios, that is on RUclips. “Sultans of Swing”(?), I think the song was. Very nice to listen to, very enjoyable to watch. I have not watched everything you’ve posted, but what I have seen has been interesting/nice/fun. The first video that came to my mind was when you played music in an empty church in a remote part of the (UK). The acoustics of the place was remarkable. Keep up the good work!
Yes, we have heard of you here in Aotearoa/New Zealand and not only that, but we've also been following you for ages. P.S. if you DO come visit we'd love it, you won't be lacking for opening acts 😊
Flight of the Conchords are self described as "New Zealand's fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo". These guys are NZs Fifth most popular!
Your reaction when they sang "Beato's got nuthin on you" was brilliant. Keep up the great work and good luck with the tour. Can't make it as I live in the USA. But who knows, when you get your big break maybe I'll see you here. Take care, Chris B
Good on you, Mary! New fan of Shady Brain Farm from way west Texas, USA. I truly hope you go to visit those boys, you should start a tour called "Spending Time with Mary" and play farm venues only!
Mary Spender - I checked out the song on Spotify, and decided to listen to the rest of the EP. The four tunes are actually quite enjoyable to listen to. They are well-structured and well-played. As acknowledged by one of the band members earlier in these comments, their exposure level has just skyrocketed. That's Mary Spender's gift to the Shady Brain Farm
Aww, that's great Mary! It's good that it brought out some lightheartedness too. It's lovely to see you smiling and laughing. Enjoy your new found notoriety in New Zealand!! 🤣🤣
Hey Mary, that was great ! I'm a guitarist in New Plymouth New Zealand, I have never heard of these guys, but i will look out for a gig & check them out ! PLEASE come to NZ !!!! I'm sure there are fans down here that will come to your show! I will be there for sure!!!!
Well, I am from New Zealand, and some of us old rockers can turn out a tune :P I've pinged them on facebook in case they missed it lol. I also think you're awesome and talented. Come to NZ - we'd love to have you here, some awesome places for you to cycle as well (I do).
I'm going to unironically use this as a creative exercise. I haven't done gigs in years but a lot of my friends run open mics, if it gets anywhere I'll just perform it there. I've actually been wanting to right a song about RUclips in general so you may now the be the crux of it Mary 😂
There are a lot of great things to say about you, but along with all of that, you have an AWESOME rock and roll name!! I'm surprised more people haven't written songs with it.
@SBF - luved the song ...like what you did at 4:40 ...the hook lead is also sticky ... excellent tones .. great trio ... on MS ... well get back in the line can't break the queue :-) hehe ... cheers!
This is why it is so much fun to “stop in” at Mary’s….and Rick’s, and a few others, from time to time. Northwest Aukland being right around the corner from everywhere. 😅
I think this was clearly flattering. All three did great on their instruments. It was done out of a sense of genuine admiration, and it was way better than any song ever written about me.
Oh, Mary, Mary... this is such a personal video isn't it? So nice of these guys to do this. Plus inviting you all the way to NZ. They must really like you! Can't wait to see how that plays out. It's gonna be awesome. I really, really enjoyed this video, probably more human touch in it than in a million others YT videos put together. Thank you for sharing!
It definitely needs more verses. Love the three piece live recording. a lot of energy. great start to a hit tune. ya never know Mary, they may make you more famous!
'Jeremy Bender' (a fun song by ELP) came to mind first, since the name rhymes with 'Mary Spender'. and i can't deny that i wanted this 'Mary Spender' song to be an imitation of it. :D That would've been a two-in-one tribute; to ELP and Mary Spender
OMG! They STOLE my song!!! Uh...kidding....OK...I'll be humming that song for the rest of the day! Fun, tight band, too. That is truly very flattering. Thank them by writing them a song containing just one verse! ;)
How did I not know that "Mary Spender Thirst Songs" was its own genre of music?! I have such a hard time situating myself between folk, rock, blues and "other" that I'll just have to tell people I write those from now on. Really, this is such a lovely and respectful tribute. But we can't let New Zealand win without letting the other colonies represent! I'll have to get cracking on Canada's submission to the Great Former Colonies Mary Spender Appreciation Songwriting Contest, and get some bed tracks down soon.
I mean, you gotta hand it to them for putting it out there like that. They are pretty solid musicians. I predict this becomes a thing, people writing songs about you. Next year, you will be be hosting the official Mary Spender song competition!
Nice song! My friend and I were once writing a cowboy song. It starred with "So fare thee well my Tatiana".... but I couldn't think of another name, until it hit me: "and give my love to Mary Spender". Sadly, the song wasn't that good. But My heart was in the right place!

Mary Spender, don't be coy, you are loved. Accept it.
I expect to see you make a video about a song you wrote about them
Come to nz pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase.

Cool and well done Shady Brain Farm - we're all glad that someone posted your tribute
As soon as the song started, I thought to myself, "Hm... Sounds kind of like a Beatles song."
its really a great celebration!..enjoyed it!
awesome work, glad to see another kiwi as well was not expecting the solo when I saw it but was a vibe
Mary, you are lovely beyond repair.
Soon to feature on Rick Beato's "What Makes This Song So Great?".
Get Pat Finnerty !! They pulled a full BEATO !!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@garycoates4987But was it the I-V-vi-IV Beato?
fuck that's too great
I dunno, 4:31 might kinda get in the way of that, no?? 😂
Was thinking "There have to be dozens of Mary Spender's in the world".. then he said "Beato's got nothing on you. Okay.. it's about you. :)
I had the same thought.
There may be dozens of Mary Spender's in the world, but there is only one MARY SPENDER !
Nah...pure coincidence.
Yeah, I was definitely waiting for lyrical confirmation that it was her, because it would be hilarious if it wasn't. The Beato line was perfect.
@@RealGriz Me 2!!
“Beato’s got nothin’ on you” took me out 🤣🤣🤣
hahaha you're not the only one 🤣🤣🤣
seriously, who would've seen this coming
Same!
haha thanks, I couldnt make out what he said!
up until this point i thought there was a possibility the name choice was a fun coincidence .
I’m a non-musician fan and I thought this was the best line in the piece!
They should open for you.
Can't believe they didn't rhyme Spender with Fender. Mary Spender she's a mind bender especially when she plays a Fender.
Too obvious
Got returned to sender
Before the WAV file could render
That's why they need to take her songwriting course!
@@InventorZahran Render the Prisoner of Zenda in a blender, never mind the gender
We can't all be Sting!
Looking forward to seeing Beato's reaction 😂
Mary reach and ask Rick, “have you heard my song? Interestingly, it mentions you.”
It shows the impact of guitar/musician RUclips that an almost unknown band in New Zealand wrote a song incorporating Mary Spender and Rick Beato. Well done...and congrats Mary! You are now even more famous!
Very savvy move from these Kiwis, 3/4 million people now know who they are. Bravo for you BOTH!
Laughing my a** off.
And 30 million sheep

In the distance, the sound of 1,000 guitars tuning as musicians begin writing songs about Mary.
I cannot wait for Rick to react, too. This is awesome!
A true garage band that plays an infrequent bar when the drinks are free. Rick Beato should fly over there and do an in-depth interview!
all I want in life really
That moment when you realize you’ve really made it in music and in life when a trio in New Zealand writes a tribute song for you!
This happened to Rodriguez, but it was South Africa. If you missed it, see it.
Well, not sure there were songs about him, but he was a legend there, loads of boot leg albums, label banking his royaties, presumed dead by nearly all the fans.
@@creamwobbly watch the film ‘searching for sugarman’ it’s a touching story with great music about the Rodrigues story.
Yeah, but they have to move to New York to try to make it big in the folk-rock scene, first.
I'll wait until she gets a song from Flight of the Concords
At first I thought it was either a naming coincidence, or a play on the name off the phrase 'want to spend time with you'. But then he dropped he Beato line and NOPE! Mary's got Kiwi Fans!
We definitely need a cover from Mary and Rick together. lol
Commenting bc I want them to cover it too
Here’s another NZ fan! Check out The Wellington Heads.
Who wouldn't want to spend time with Mary? You are such a wonderful and beautiful person!!! Thanks for today's content!
"Beato's got nothing on you", followed by a tasty jam in a different time signature, sounding a bit like early Sabbath. 🤟
"Beato's got nothin' on you." Best line ever!! 😂
Rick doesn’t have his own song, but you do, Mary! I’m still smiling 5 minutes later! Brilliant.
Our band opened for Shady Brain Farm at Moon Bar in Newtown Wellington a few weeks back.
Catchy tune! My wife is going to give me strange looks as I walk around the house singing, "Mary Spender, Mary Spender, I wanna spend my time with you". You have to send this to Rick so he can do a "What Makes This Song Great" video!

You've already done something big for them Mary, you've just given them world wide exposure. Clever marketing ploy ... and it was a fun song.

Except that was another Mary Spender - who is now 65....
So, you’re saying she can’t dance, but can do other things. Well, ok 🤷♂️
😂
You have to come down to New Zealand now after that! The Kiwis are waiting. 😊
That really is super sweet. You can tell that they are sincere guys. Probably dads, and are genuine fans of Mary. They’d buy you a beer at their bar gig. Awesome all around.
Good afternoon Mary and friends!
I am not surprised that you have fans in Auckland. Heck, you even have one here in this tiny town near Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, USA.

You have another fan in the heart of bourbon country Kentucky near Makers Mark!
In a minute we'll have The Charismatic Voice react to this lovely tune.
Yes, we have heard of you here in Aotearoa/New Zealand and not only that, but we've also been following you for ages.
P.S. if you DO come visit we'd love it, you won't be lacking for opening acts 😊
As an Australlian I can say it just goes to show that there are more people in the world who love you than you ever thought of.
Flight of the Conchords are self described as "New Zealand's fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo". These guys are NZs Fifth most popular!
The studio version on Spotify sounds even better! ( I guess its a studio version and not tje live RUclips one). Love your reaction Mary
"Oh, it's one of *those* songs." 🤣
That cracked me up as well! hee hee...
Your reaction when they sang "Beato's got nuthin on you" was brilliant. Keep up the great work and good luck with the tour. Can't make it as I live in the USA. But who knows, when you get your big break maybe I'll see you here. Take care, Chris B
Or maybe it WAS a hit piece... on Beato! 🤣
ahahaha! nice
Drummer crushed it !! Love the fusiony outro. Mary's reaction is awesome :-)
Good on you, Mary! New fan of Shady Brain Farm from way west Texas, USA. I truly hope you go to visit those boys, you should start a tour called "Spending Time with Mary" and play farm venues only!
🙋🏼♀️I’m in!! Wonderful idea!!
I wouldn’t mind if Mary came to north est Florida either-there are still farms here also!👏🏼👏🏼
Oh, this is great! I can't wait for Beato's response!!!!!

"New Zealand Notoriety" is a good song name.
Hey Mary, that was great ! I'm a guitarist in New Plymouth New Zealand, I have never heard of these guys, but i will look out for a gig & check them out ! PLEASE come to NZ !!!! I'm sure there are fans down here that will come to your show! I will be there for sure!!!!
I reckon Mary should head to New Plymouth just like Joanne Shaw Taylor managed to all those years ago!
Well, I am from New Zealand, and some of us old rockers can turn out a tune :P I've pinged them on facebook in case they missed it lol. I also think you're awesome and talented. Come to NZ - we'd love to have you here, some awesome places for you to cycle as well (I do).
I think Shirley Bassey anticipated this by several decades when she sang "Hey, Mary Spender".
I loved the instrumental break. Overall plausible original tune inspired by the lovely Mary Spender!
Come out to Whanganui and Wellington and tour our local scene next January!
I'm going to unironically use this as a creative exercise. I haven't done gigs in years but a lot of my friends run open mics, if it gets anywhere I'll just perform it there. I've actually been wanting to right a song about RUclips in general so you may now the be the crux of it Mary 😂
I think it is amazingly sweet. Do you know how hard it is to even write a song?? Much less put everything together. Its beautiful.
Well played; well deserved homage, MS.
WE ALL❤❤❤❤❤❤U
Be flattered - you deserve the appreciation!
That was a really cool song. Those guys know what they're doing. I'm glad the song wasn't derogatory! I'm happy for you.
Surprisingly fun, and well composed. 👍👍
That was awfully brave, you never know what a song is going to bring your way.
There are a lot of great things to say about you, but along with all of that, you have an AWESOME rock and roll name!! I'm surprised more people haven't written songs with it.
A loss for words, your reaction says it all, Mary Spender, Mary Spender I do spend my time with you!
Love you Mary! And, the interview with Rick!

What great exposure. I need to get busy writing songs about all of the great RUclips influencers. Genius!
Yeah that Beato line. Well played chaps. 👏
Hey we all have to agree Mary is a muse for a great many of us.
That base line when they start rocking is really reminding me of a Black Sabbath base riff...
Haha come to New Zealand! We'll support you!!
Fun and a cool vibe!!
We love you down here in New Zealand Mary Spender.
Mary seems like such a beautiful person inside and out. A breath of fresh air and way easier to look at then beto 😂❤
That guitar solo was genuinely so cool
More people should write songs about you. You're awesome. Big fan of yours. Cheers from Australia 👍🎸

Wow! This song is now stuck in my head. Thanks Mary! Hey! You can use this as a theme song for your channel with their permission of course.
They're not the only ones ! I'm also in new Zealand, and here we are. Your next step is to write a song about them lol
The intensely British way she said "I don't know what to expect I'm nervous"
😅
Hella brilliant!
It's a fun song and very well played.

This is truly the epitome of fan adoration. ❤ I am speechless.
That's really lovely, good for you.
Flippin' brilliant!
Great tune, great energy. A worthy subject, if there ever was one. But Mary, I've never seen you rattled like that before. 😅 Charming indeed.
This is wonderful !! Beato's got nothing on you best line I have heard in a while.
We spend time with you every time we watch one of your videos. It’s great.
Whole song a set up for that killer Beato punch-line
Well done, lads!
Catchy song. Now it will be in my head all day. "Mary Spender, Maaary Spender!" 😊Fun video!
How did I not know that "Mary Spender Thirst Songs" was its own genre of music?! I have such a hard time situating myself between folk, rock, blues and "other" that I'll just have to tell people I write those from now on.
Really, this is such a lovely and respectful tribute. But we can't let New Zealand win without letting the other colonies represent! I'll have to get cracking on Canada's submission to the Great Former Colonies Mary Spender Appreciation Songwriting Contest, and get some bed tracks down soon.
Fascinating! Mary, thanks for supporting musicians and guitarists everywhere.
I love your reaction, Mary! That was a fun song and breaking into double time might be a bad sign…. Great fun!
Mary, all that you are helping Musicians around the world makes me a fan of you too. Greetings from Brasil!!!!
Such a catchy song. First listen last night and then humming it to myself for the rest of the evening. A real ear worm!
I think the song is really cool!! Lotta fun Mary
There's also that Frog Leap Leo outro of "Mary Spender".
...and now you've opened Spendora's Box (Set) of tribute songs...
That's exactly what I was thinking.
I mean, you gotta hand it to them for putting it out there like that. They are pretty solid musicians.
I predict this becomes a thing, people writing songs about you. Next year, you will be be hosting the official Mary Spender song competition!
Love it. Gotta feel great.
Nice song! My friend and I were once writing a cowboy song. It starred with "So fare thee well my Tatiana".... but I couldn't think of another name, until it hit me: "and give my love to Mary Spender". Sadly, the song wasn't that good. But My heart was in the right place!
