I find comfort in videos like this because they weren't afraid to present it to their small but growing community. They didn't care what other people thought about it. Now their videos today seem so sterile. They aren't as silly as Brotherhood 2.0 or even 2008. I think they feel confined by their subscriber count, as if they feel like they can't express themselves as much. If videos like this returned, it would show that your subscriber count doesn't determine how professional you are.
its been like 2 years since i actually listened to this song and it randomly popped back into my head OUT OF NOWHERE like 20 minutes ago (11pm) and has been stuck since. i was doing absolutely nothing to warrant this 36 second song to get stuck in my head, i havent even thought of it in at least a year. hank what have you done to me
It is 3:53 p.m on December 10th, 2020. This is the Watching History of Vlogbrothers. Here my general thoughts so far: Who wrote this song? And this hunt must've been fun when it was happening!
Darn you Hank. Darn you and your catchy songs about Montana. ;-) This one is going to be stuck in my head just like Helena was... and still is on occasion.
OMG, Hank, I had the crappiest day with 3 classes back to back and I haven't eaten lunch and I'm still hungry now. This video cheered me up sooooo much. Thanks!!
Please tell me there's someone out there that knows what I'm talking about in this comment. There's a show called Whose Line is it Anyway and during the years 1998-2003 it premiered on ABC Family with Drew Carey as the host (It's still on but on a different network under a different host). Anyway, there's this came called "Scenes from a Hat" which the actors act out as many scenes as they can think of in a suggestion from the audience pulled out of a hat. One of those suggestions was something along the lines of "Cities that will never have a song made about them" and one of the scenes, made by Ryan Stiles, was Butte, Montana with his rendition being "it's pronounced 'Bute' not 'Butt' Montana." Please tell me there's someone out there that knows exactly what I'm talking about!
That is so cool! I wish there was a project where we all made songs about different places we traveled to that named all the parts specific to that place. Then whenever we met someone from that place we could be like WOW! That place is really special!
Been there... Drove through Butte, then spent a week in Heart Butte, which is in the heart of nowhere. An hour from the nearest walmart. Loved spending time in Big Sky Country, though.
I've been there sooo many times on road trips but I've never noticed any of these things. I'll have to look out for them when I drive through next time.
Y'all should come down to Butts County, Georgia. Just south of Atlanta, out in the boonies, its honest-to-God name is BUTTS COUNTY. Also this song is well and truly stuck in my head now.
Hahahaha! I love this. I live in Bozeman and driving through Butte to go elsewhere is going to be a much funnier experience with this video on my ipod. Thanks for doing such cool, creative things. Shayna
And, Butte has an outdoor, refrigerated long track ice speed skating oval! Who else in North America can say that? Well, Roseville, MN has one that is a little bigger. And then Salt Lake City UT, Calgary AB and Milwaukee WI have enclosed ones that have faster ice. But Butte's has a nicer view! :)
After this was over I just sort of stared into the distance for a few seconds and then burst into laughter. I don't think any of my friends are going to get it when I link it to them...
Makes me wish I either lived in or near Butte, Montana, so that I could know the streets. "Oh, yeah...Adam, you're going to have to turn left on Platinum Street... Yeah... Okay, I'll see you soon."
duuuude.... they could totally go on vacation to Hawaii and just say it's part of the Nerdfighting Tour =D they could leave clues there for you and then have fun on the beach!
AHHH!!! Stop doing these scavenger hunt vids!!! It's making me sad because i'm in alaska and i can't go to all those places ur hiding awesomely AWESOME stuff + it's bummimng me out!!! :( LOVE U GUYS!!!!!!!!!!
I have found a very effective way of getting songs that are extremely catchy out of my head... Replace them with another Catchy Song: JUST A SMALL TOWN GIRL, LIVING IN A LONELY WORLD...
Oh, why'd you have to mention the Helena, Montana song!?! If I think about it even a little.....ah there it is - STUCK IN MY HEAD!!! Darn you, Hank! Darn you and your stuck-in-your-head songs!! :P
THIS SONG HAS BEEN IN MY HEAD ALL DAGGONE DAY
Been watching vlogbrothers from the beginning these last few weeks. As awesome as the longer songs are, this is by far my favorite song to date.
After having heard this song, every time I drive through Butte, MT, I chuckle.
It's a nice place, too.

you might have been partly right
It's not subscriber count, *they* have grown.
this reminds me of that "whose line" bit, sung by Ryan Styles.
"It's pronounced Butte, not butt, Montana.."
Hank sure is good at writing catchy songs...
No wonder my 90% hums are Hanks'
But sometimes the lyrics are so wacky, you can't sing them in public.

This song will be going through my mind for the next 80 years! It's that awesome! It's so catchy.....
THE FACT THAT SUCH A PUN HAS SO MANY LIKES GIVES ME HOPE FOR A BETTER FUTURE. THANK BUBBLES THE NERDFIGHTING PUPPY FOR NERDFIGHTERIA.
This may be my favourite song of all time
I first heard this song living in my parents house in Alabama. I happen to now live in Montana and sing this every time we drive through Butte.
OMG, Hank, I had the crappiest day with 3 classes back to back and I haven't eaten lunch and I'm still hungry now. This video cheered me up sooooo much. Thanks!!

tiff0795 You are not alone. That was the first thing in my mind after viewing this too!
YES I know exactly what you are talking about and I found a RUclips video with the clip in it and I commented a link to this video
kaya347 whoa haha i came here from your comment on that video
Annndddd I'm here from that comment too ^-^ gotta love how the internet's made everything so easy innit
When I think of classic Vlogbrothers, I always think of this.
It is so catchy!!! I cant stop listening to the song!!!
butte butte buute montanaaa
thanks for getting that in my head :(
dftba!
This still gets stuck in my head out of nowhere sometimes.
I had a really good time in Butte, Montana this summer. It actually is a great town.
A short video, but it is short enough to get this song stuck in my head.
That is so cool! I wish there was a project where we all made songs about different places we traveled to that named all the parts specific to that place. Then whenever we met someone from that place we could be like WOW! That place is really special!
It's been years since I even thought of the vlogbrothers but I'm driving though Butte in a few days I've been thinking of this song constantly
Been there... Drove through Butte, then spent a week in Heart Butte, which is in the heart of nowhere. An hour from the nearest walmart. Loved spending time in Big Sky Country, though.
greatest song EVER
I've been there sooo many times on road trips but I've never noticed any of these things. I'll have to look out for them when I drive through next time.
lmao i love how you said "arsenic" at the end. amazing ;)
My kitten Jack loves this song. I played it just now and he started purring like crazy!
Aww... I was in Butte just a few weeks ago. Just driving through, but darn!
This is my favorite Hank song.
My grandma owned the Dumas Brothel on 45 east Mercury. I went there every month.
Now I finally get this song, I had only heard the audio before, but with the video it makes sense
ok, that was one of the funniest things I've come across in a very long time. brilliant. :)
What an interesting looking place!
Awesome! The Helena Montana of 2008! Loved it!
Y'all should come down to Butts County, Georgia. Just south of Atlanta, out in the boonies, its honest-to-God name is BUTTS COUNTY.
Also this song is well and truly stuck in my head now.
I randomly wake up with this song stuck in my head
Definetly the tune of the week!! x
I LIVE THERE!!!!!
Oh noooo... this is going to be stuck in my head all day!
well, there something we haven't heard before.
:)
Still stuck in my head
Whenever I drive in to Butte I get this song stuck in my head *.*
I
It is only because of this song that I feel proud to have been to Butte, Montana. :P
Hahahaha! I love this. I live in Bozeman and driving through Butte to go elsewhere is going to be a much funnier experience with this video on my ipod. Thanks for doing such cool, creative things.
Shayna
Love it.
I wish some clues were hidden closer to me.
I love the song!
AAAAAAAnd, back at my favourite song
LOL brilliant as usual Hank!
That song was awesome.
And, Butte has an outdoor, refrigerated long track ice speed skating oval!
Who else in North America can say that?
Well, Roseville, MN has one that is a little bigger. And then Salt Lake City UT, Calgary AB and Milwaukee WI have enclosed ones that have faster ice.
But Butte's has a nicer view! :)
i ALWAYS get the helena, montana song stuck in my head too! :-)
Lovin the song, lol.
After this was over I just sort of stared into the distance for a few seconds and then burst into laughter. I don't think any of my friends are going to get it when I link it to them...
i have been humming this damn song all day!! lol
I love this
ooh malta is amazing! i went there for a week lol and i totally wanna like live there for a year when i'm older. :P
I think that you should make full-length version of the Butte song, Hang. It's catchy!
Wow...and I just drove through there about a month ago. I really did not like the hill going down into it.
I want a 10 hour version of this
I love those. But I'm pretty sure Helena Montana will always be my favorite! :-D
DFTBA
Tell me why this song just popped into my head in the middle of the night years since I thought about it for the last time
Makes me wish I either lived in or near Butte, Montana, so that I could know the streets. "Oh, yeah...Adam, you're going to have to turn left on Platinum Street... Yeah... Okay, I'll see you soon."
omg i hope there are lots of nerdfighters in montanna lol
holy crap that was the best song ever.
That was amazing.
duuuude.... they could totally go on vacation to Hawaii and just say it's part of the Nerdfighting Tour =D they could leave clues there for you and then have fun on the beach!
Okay I'm not gonna gte this out of my head, for like a week XD
favorite!
DFTBA THAT WAS AWESOME
I do my happy dance everytime a baby is born.
This made me grin.
that was beautiful *tear*
i can picture hank and john in a barbershop acapella quartet or something now.
I agree catchy...we always say if you want to give Montana an enema...
That was some nice barbershop quartettage.
I want to go to Butte, Motana sooo bad now! lol
That was awesome......
wow thats terribly catchy...now its going to be stuck in my head for the rest of the week lol
AHHH!!!
Stop doing these scavenger hunt vids!!!
It's making me sad because i'm in alaska and i can't go to all those places ur hiding awesomely AWESOME stuff + it's bummimng me out!!!
:(
LOVE U GUYS!!!!!!!!!!
I meant to say: I think that you should make A full-length version of the Butte song, HANK. It's catchy!
That'll teach me to proofread :)
Brilliant!
i just drove through there and if you are in montana you should try Mckinzie River pizza Co. but the one in missoula is better
That is EXACTLY what I thought of when I saw the title of this video!
We should invade Butte, Montana and make this the national anthem of the Nerdfightastic Republic of Butte.
I have found a very effective way of getting songs that are extremely catchy out of my head...
Replace them with another Catchy Song:
JUST A SMALL TOWN GIRL, LIVING IN A LONELY WORLD...
For a second there, I thought this was my subscription to Fail Blog. XD
yea loved this song xD. quite catchy.
No reference to the Our Lady of the Rockies statue? BUTTE FTW!
- Andrew
I can't get the song out of my head! D:
Why do I keep forgetting that this exists
Dang, I was seriously in Butte 3 weeks ago!
Oh, why'd you have to mention the Helena, Montana song!?! If I think about it even a little.....ah there it is - STUCK IN MY HEAD!!! Darn you, Hank! Darn you and your stuck-in-your-head songs!! :P
best.video.ever
Ah, the days when it was only 330 videos...
