Didn't catch up with this while last 18 months or so. The WHOLE thing just makes me chuckle so much every time - absolute class. You know, it likely took LOADS of practice for them to deliver that performance with such apparent ease. Well done, Boys - perhaps your finest moment (amongst many).
AWSOME song flight of the conchords are the best!! Saw their concert live in newcastle and they are just SO GOOD!!. woul go and see them again anytime 4 anything + their show is by far the funniest and witty i've ever seen. ;) XD
@aurielc really great work. thanks for the effort! saw these guys a few years back and it's great seeing a good quality live video. especially a song i've never heard before.
How did they come up with this? Like seriously it’s so creative it’s crazy. The whole song about such effort he makes, the rose, the haircut, the horse… then as soon as she suggests a Joust to win her…. He bails 😂 Damn that’s funny 🤣 but also as usual a nice melody
@Siobhancrowther That's cool you were there too! Such a fun show! Actually I was extremely lucky to be sitting in the very center of the front row, and Bret climbed over the people to my left. I got all of 'Sugarlumps' on video including Bret climbing over the audience, and you can watch it here on youtube. :)
I saw them 3 times over the Australia tour. Sydney, Wollongong and Melbourne (Sydney was by far the best). But what I was hoping to find was their newer version where Bret does the other characters in the song. Truly this song is perfect though.
I'm pretty sure half of these views are me. Can't get enough of these guys. Does anyone know as to why he has both an amp hookup to his acoustic as well as a mic in front of the guitar? Seems redundant? I'm a novice when it comes to sound equipment.
Because that's standard-operating-procedure for live performances, duh! It's always the same: one cable goes into the guitar, another to the mic in front of the guitar, and one directly into the anus of the performer. What are you, new?
@suthmeister Tiimm MMiinncchhiinn! Yep I saw him, had a little chat with him but then he does keep cropping up like an extremely polite and funny bad smell at these sorts of gigs doesn't he? ha ha! ;0)
Why didn't this become super popular? This is one of my favorites by Flight of the Conchords.
Probably a lot doesn’t get all the subtle humor. If you see the version they did in Texas it seems the audience doesn’t get it as they did in London.
Still the best version of this song I've seen them do. Everything's just perfect.
I'm not joking when I say this song is a masterpiece.
Great story.
100% agree!
I need a studio version of this song, absolute gold.
@nichtswiezuvor Glad you enjoyed the video! It took about 15 hours to upload, so it's nice to have someone appreciate it. :)
I'm very glad you did, this has been making me laugh hysterically for 14 years :)
I'm 11 seconds into it and I'm already wooed.
I just love this woman's laugh.

This is one of the most beautiful funny songs I've ever heard :)
Seriously the best gig I've ever been to! Still laugh my head off watching this
Not only is this brilliantly funny writing, but the music is very pretty as well.
Fave song by the Flight of the Conchords
Who even carries ID in 1353!? Wish I'd been there.
I'd love to see them perform. They make me laugh so much! Lucky you!
The thing on the horses with the pointy things.
the song ended...and the audience said WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO!!! I love this song :D
The song is actually called "The summer of 1353"
How can he sing this without bursting out laughing??
I was at this gig :) it was so amazing. They acc made me belly laugh the whole way through
I watch this all the time, love FOTC and think this is their best ever performance so thanks for taking the time to upload! :)
I just saw them live yesterday it was amazing!!
damn, I'm six years late on this song, love it!
now off to woo a lady!
..... don't forget your horse !
They are the best :)
This is brilliant! The song is hilarious and so good and the quality of the video is fantastic- Thank you!
This is amazing! They need to make a new series, perhaps setting it in New Zealand, following the second series
Just saw them in Nelson this week. Brilliant!! That was the first time I had heard this song. It's my new favourite. Very funny!
Definitely their best one so far!

That was an amazing song!
Bloody geniuses!!!
Really funny. Love those guys

Just listened to this for the tenth tins in 24 hours hahaha
in perth brett did all the other voices like stableman it was fuckin gold!
Ah man i was there!!! how epic was Prince of Parties!!! also who else saw Tim Minchin while they were there.
my great great great grampa used to sing this song.
hahaha Boris the Animal lol oh i forgot its just Boris :) love the song inspired some confidence in me to woo a lady!
ahh i NEEEEEED!!! this on my ipod.. need.. mp3.. *dies*
This will be freakin awesome in the new movie. :D
lets hope they do a movie!
It's a sad song if you think about it :)
Very much so. :)
i cant believe this was two years ago already..
At 3:22 I think he looked right at you!
I saw them live in Bergen, Norway a year ago. Really hope I get to see them again soon.
I'm glad they made some new material for their tour. Would've been a dick move if they didn't. Now all we need is another album. FOTC FTW.
amazing! jermaine is still freakin hot!
I want this song!! When will they make a new album T___T
He had me at...."in"
I've been rediscovering this song for a couple of year now, and I can still only find live recordings. Can anyone tell me if it's part of an album?
Best fotc song ever haha
I saw them 3 times over the Australia tour. Sydney, Wollongong and Melbourne (Sydney was by far the best). But what I was hoping to find was their newer version where Bret does the other characters in the song. Truly this song is perfect though.
When is this going to come out!! They need a New Album!!
In the Australian tour :)
Hulk!
This thing needs something more... like 3 simultaneous recorder solos. that'll do the trick
Jemaine looks like the hulk
I tried to Woo a lady but got an arrow in the nee
I WANT THIS ON MY IPOD!! Arghh.. are they gonna release a New Album anytime soon??
@thelibarr2 They might (probably) be making a movie! XD
No..THAT is how you woo a lady!
Parody of When the Lights went out in Georgia?
too bad they stopped making the show this would be a good one
@TheFunkyPharoah Where did you get that from?
@kkay0010 Jenny from One Night Stand performance still wins over this one for mine - if you can call it a song.
Consider this lady wooed.
What genre of music would this song be? Medieval ballad? I need a genre that is specific style for simmilar sounding songs.
+Algirdas Šalomskas Madrigals?
beutiful music, but it kinda like a choir. or is there a solo version with an instrument?
Check out the song Greensleeves.
listen to the witcher soundtrack it's a lot like that
I did :D
rose that smells like a rose that they call a rose
such logic x)
Just type Flight of the Conchords movie into Google, for some reason I cant link it :(
This man makes me very weak.
Michael Burns What can I say? Jemaine is my muse and my joy.
I'm pretty sure half of these views are me. Can't get enough of these guys.
Does anyone know as to why he has both an amp hookup to his acoustic as well as a mic in front of the guitar? Seems redundant? I'm a novice when it comes to sound equipment.
Brad Colin It's most likely for one of the many other instruments they bring on stage.
Because that's standard-operating-procedure for live performances, duh! It's always the same: one cable goes into the guitar, another to the mic in front of the guitar, and one directly into the anus of the performer. What are you, new?
@SirMacjango You'd know where Bret is if you'd watched the video.
Where?
What does he say at 2:12 ? I have wondered this for years and years and I have just never thought to ask lol
“I maketh not the rules,” quoth he.
@@meglittle15 THANK YOU!! 😂😅
@TheFunkyPharoah movie?
are they recording a new album?!?!
lyrics?
This act is a black whole set in a green diamond that has the power to kill white walkers
Is there any instrument Bret can't play?
+Jimmy Campbell It's Jemaine...
+Michał Chyliński pretty sure he was refering to bret playing the flute
moonman stan Haha yeah I was. Didn't think I needed to clarify as I don't think any Conchords fans are unaware that Jemaine can play guitar!
Sorry, I've just noticed that Jemaine wasn't the only performer here;)
To answer your question, he has almost no experience with the Richard Flute.
they didn't they stopped making it by choice
@suthmeister Tiimm MMiinncchhiinn! Yep I saw him, had a little chat with him but then he does keep cropping up like an extremely polite and funny bad smell at these sorts of gigs doesn't he? ha ha! ;0)
How the hell did they get cancelled?
Thanks Douche!
@putthapipat watch the video
4 people couldn't Woo a lady
NEW ZEALAND PRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well swimfit, I wouldn't be surprised if Brett downvoted the video since he's not a fan of the band
unfortunetly I can't hear any of the punchlines over the laughing and echo :/ Sounds like a funny song from the reaction though :P
He's great. Just enough ethnic in him to not be dorky, but not too much to be scary.
