Every few years, I go on an Ylvis binge watching.
yup
Same
I have returned
Same. I cycle.
my time is now
I was in Massachusetts last week and I should have been listening to this song, but if I’m being real, all I could think of was Stonehenge.
lol nice one
Who the fuck builds a stonehenge?
Fair - it is the greatest henge of all.
What henge is that again?
I went to Stonehenge and you better believe I sang the song
Ylvis has completely done all of Massachusetts' tourist advertising for the next three decades.
They should play this in the airport when you arrive lol
@@katiegates23 "and suddently you're sucking on a cock" hahaahhahaa
Legit!
Going there this summer. Because of this song 😁👍 Without it, I would probably stay with NY and Washington only.
"Who has never seen a hunk on a bus and thought 'hmm, I wanna sit on your lap'" is possibly one of the most wonderful lyrics ever written in history in the field of mirth.
All Ylvis songs should be compiled and be made into a broadway musical. This needs to happen.
Omg yes!
Strongly agree
Before they did music videos and the talk show, they were performing artists, doing sketches and musical-style funny bits (mostly in norwegian though). Check out "YLVIS 3", with skits like "9/11 on ice", or "I can be a hero" in english ;)
Yrs immediately
I agree, their songs are very broadway-esque.
Everything I know of Massachusettes is from this song.
lmao
same here
This is all anyone needs to know about Massachusetts in my opinion.
In reality Massachusetts is much more than this song. The only reason they made this song was because it was the first state that legalize gay marriage.
Liam Carlson Everyone knows that already...
but let's stop for a moment to reflect on the quality of the arrangement! The drum parts, the bass lines, the choirs... fantastic
agreed
Classic Soul Pop
The vocal arrangement is dope
all of their "songs" are hacks of other songs.
It's Ole Børuds studio musicians!! He's a great gospel soul ish musician from Norway. (He doesn't own the musicians but he works with them regularly)
This is beautiful. Once every 6 months I come here to regain my energies.
Me too 😆😂
It's like once every two years for me, but yeah same.
@@kz1000ps I’m here 24/7
its true
Me to
This needs to be our new state official song.
agreed
+masterredwood PLEASE
+masterredwood totally the current one is so boring
I dont even know my state song... not even sure if a state song of Massachusetts is actually a thing... going to look that up now.
OH HELL, Our state song is literally us hailing our loyalty to our state like some propaganda driven cult?...
Shit, I see why this song was not made it yet, cant beat that.
I grew up in MA. Spent my first 26 years there. That shot - right at the first Chorus - of the three guys sitting at a crossroads in front of a Bank Of America ATM at dusk - is the perfect representation in one shot of every Worcester/Boston suburb. Amazingly representative.
Lol so true. I could have sworn I have been in that exact spot.
That would be Quincy (:
+DesertTripper - Wow - really nice work!
Eveyone town has this image or something close to it. Yep, thats Massachusetts.
JC it’s in quincy mass i live here
I completely forgot about this video. This might be the perfect song.
I smell a new Recorder by Candlelight cover...
I listen to this almost every morning, it gets on the mood to face the day!
@@heldersilva8756 Still listening?
Me too! I haven't seen it in nearly 7 years and all a sudden today while grocery shopping I was like "hmm what happened to that Massachusetts song"
I am SO not surprised you're into this!!
As a Masshole, I can say with complete confidence that this is the best representation of my state to ever exist 😌
"Thats way too many K's" Fucking love that line.
Wait, did he reference the KKK? I'm dying now cause that totally went over my head!!!!
@@lauragraves4342 I don't think Kkk were so famous at that time, but maybe...
@@lauragraves4342 No Mass has no KKK chapters
@@mellenz_4299 yaaaaayyyy!!!!!!
@@mellenz_4299 Let's do something about that
"who hasn't ever seen a hunk on the bus and thought 'mmm I wanna sit on your lap'" this speaks to me on a spiritual level
I live in Massacheche...I mean, Massachusetts...and I was getting into the vibe, tapping my foot until, out of the blue, he said: "And suddenly, you're .... " and I'm like, "What?! What did he just say?" lol.
he's right though
As someone from New Hampshire, I always hear this song play in my head when I hit the border going south through Haverhill or Tyngsborough and see the welcome signs.
Man you guys hit the nail on the head recreating probably every cheesy tourism promotional commercial song trope. Love this song.
Old post replied to, but: this is a worthy follow-up to "Your State's Name Here" by Lou and Peter Berryman
Lol I've lived in Massachusetts all my life and thought this was hilarious! I showed everyone I know and still do. It's just makes so much sense.😂😂😂
Dear Thomas, fuck you.
Thomas Pound Evans You're seriously the pot calling the kettle black, here. If you're going to insult someone based on a lack of grammar, be sure to use good grammar yourself. What I'm referring to is that you didn't use proper punctuation; there should be a PERIOD at the end of your first comment, and a comma after "no" and "you" in your second comment, followed by end punctuation. Smh
Rhode island represent bitches! smallest state in the country!
Actually the smallest state has the smallest country it is called Petoria
justsomeaverageguy Representin!!
Almost 5 years later and it still manages to be one of my favorite videos on youtube ever.
So funny! Go Makakokko!
That's way too many K's
It's weird because I was watching them film on location, you can see my house in the video.
What’s ur address
@@Ryan-xi4tm can I give you an address of someone I dislike from Massachusetts. Better yet I'll send you to the south side of Boston.
I love the emphasis on Teddy P and Bruce~
that's what happens when you let Norwegians travel... xD
+André Lund xDD you made my day
+André Lund Word.
+:D Miniummanee Epic, epic and epic :P
RUclipsr123 nei det skal du ikke
:D Miniummanee lol
10 years later I still find it funny how their least funny and meaningful song was the one that blew up on the internet while they have gems like this one.
Its incredible how quickly they change the tempo and style of the song and still manage to keep everything well timed, tuneful and catchy AF
Could feature in a disney musical
BEST.TOURISM.COMMERCIAL.EVER
I really dont like long commercials even when the artists are talented.
it isn't
This is such a brilliant song
MandJTV
HEY! Nice seeing you here :D
MICHEAL?!
Best part is when Calle introduces the boroughs
its where i live!
But the line is so thin tho
Rewatching this in 2020. Damn, 2014 was a very different time. This song is so peaceful and wholesome compared to America now.
My husband was from Everett, MA (Suffolk County!) I LOVE this song soooo much!! Just wish there was a non-cock version so I didn't have to stop it before the end for the kids :)
LOL
lol this is the funniest comment on this whole video
The way it lingers on Bruce's face is priceless. Just long enough to be uncomfortable. Genius.
100% true and accurate
Sources:
- Have been to Massachusetts
- Am kinda gay
Everybody's a little gay.
They didn't really touch on the sailing culture though. I'm from Marblehead (used to be part of Salem) and there are about 1.3 boats per person.
+Zestea not me 😜
+chrisoulicius wow, this is so accurate! hahah
I live in Massachusetts
That tragically was shot gets me everytime
That South-African part of the song was pure FIRE!!
FUck the Apartheid!
i live in mass
very swag i approve
Cuny I agree
Cuny Me too
Me too
Meep
Me tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo😘😀😘😀😘😀😘😀😘😀😀😀😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😂
I want to but I'm broke
Wow, I didn't expect it to go in that direction at all. Awesome.
just on a musical level I love all the different changes and the energy and melody it's great
As a fellow Masshole from this wonderful state I'm proud I found this
I really like this song. these dudes really can write songs....their content is goofy, but they are seriously good.
F**k Hawaii, I'm going to Makkakoko for my holidays!!! That place looks awesome!
Massachusetts isn't the 14th biggest state. Thats Idaho. Massachusetts is the 44th largest state.
Freddy Fazbear As of when the song was made it was the 14th largest by population, not by land size. 😁
Be careful driving
Not being stereotypical I live here
This reply needs more likes!!!!😂😂😂😂
😂😂
im from boston and i live in paris, my french coworkers exclaimed with shock and delight when i told them where i was from, and showed me this song
As a resident of Massachusetts, I hate to admit how accurate this is.
What? The song makes it seem pretty nice!
As a resident of Massachusetts, I love it.
*****
I hope that was meant as a compliment. As someone from MA, I'm really proud of how we were the first state to legalize gay marriage, and I hope the state can continue to work towards being a safe space for LGBTQ people to live without persecution. Plus we have Barney Frank, and he's pretty cool.
***** Fuck you. Massachusetts is a good state and you saying since someone is from it they're ''gay''. Like is there something wrong with gay people and Massachusetts?
***** ?
Same
"Kissing a man doesn't mean you're gay, Confused!" This part tho hahahahhaah
Srly best part hahahaha never saw it coming
You're not a real man until you've tried all forms of legal sex and gone back for seconds just because it was fun. I've done it all. I've gone back for seconds even though I'm gay
It's true though. You don't need to be gay to kiss a man.
@@cuttwice3905 Life has more of a purpose than the filth you’re describing. Turn back to God, your Creator & Sustainer, before it’s too late. Don’t let the worldly life delude you.
IT'S A THIN THIN LINE THO 😂
This is clearly my discovery of the century...It is brilliant, hilarious and sometimes even shocking. I mean at 3:45 is this for real? These guys do not afraid. It's a satire on those travel commercials for sure, but also so many cultural references, many music styles. Great views of Massachusetts and beautiful voices.. How can you mix it in just one song?! Love you, Ylvis!
I once went to Massachusetts on a boring work trip, probably listened to this song 50+ times while I was there, made it all not so bad. This is genius, this is what youtube used to be. Thank you Ylvis.
Who hasn't ever seen a hunk on a bus and thought "Mmm, I wanna sit on your lap"
Sollux Captor Can't say I have.
Forslimjims same
Forslimjims Why can't say that you have? Are you ashamed about? Dont worry, we wont judge you. The internett is a judgement free zone(that might have been the biggest lie I have ever told...)
Happydemon Hmm, nah just never wanted to sit on anybodies lap. It's just strange.
Forslimjims So you're telling me you've never seen a hunk on the bus and thought "mmm, I wanna sit on your lap"?
Even excluding the incredible lyrics, the song is absolutely amazing in and of itself with those harmonies and gospel singing and the bridge I mean goddamn
Sam Holmes agreeeed
I trust you have been on an Ylvis binge? I'm not deep into Toto but I get a vibe of that in this song. They're buddies with Stargate producers (Rhianna Sia etc) so I just assume they can call in amazing studio artists. I have a great affection for The Cabin by Ylvis too, and of course... oh lord: The Josh Groban-ish "Stonehenge". Vegard replaced Josh Groban on stage in a Norwegian concert to mess with the audience.
Everyone is talking about the lyrics, but listen to that fucking Slapp riff on the bass, my god. Incredible musicians.
Haven’t heard this in years and it randomly pops back into my head today... couldn’t be happier!
Vegard's voice, the background vocal harmonies, the bassline, the humour and hilarious lyrics, the visuals, the diversity - everything about this song is unbelievable. So, SO good. I can listen to this all day. This has got to be one of their best songs/videos.
It hasn't been this good since the spirit of Massachusetts song back in the day
Sometimes I watch this video and it makes it feel like everything is right in the world.
Sometimes I watch this video and I cry when Mufasa dies.
I'm laughing so hard I'm crying, these people are absolute musical geniuses.
Come to Norway, we can go to their concert
I cannot express fully my complete love for this song, and I keep coming back to hear it because it is just that kind of awesome. Thank you all for bringing this creation upon us.
It only has Gay references because Massachusetts was the first state to legalize gay marriage
+Mikabell Starfall gross
+Lisa Labyack wtf is rong with you? gay marriage is not gross
Come on, Stop arguing, Everyone had freedom to opinion, But I love Gay marriage c:
+Mikabell Starfall it's horrific
l Gay marriage is not foul, gross, horrific, or anything of that sort. Everyone has the right to love who they love. We are no men or women to judge a man or woman's relationship. There is nothing wrong with gay marriage. The whole thought of it was created by religion almost as a way to create a perfect society, which is a worthless attempt. Sometimes the church you go to, the bible you read, the preacher you listen to is wrong, harsh, and have very little understanding of a person's emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and desires. No man, woman, or child has the right to dictate another man, woman, or child's life and their ways of living that life. Nothing is wrong or stronger than love. Love is an extremely powerful force that not even the powers we adore and respect most can overpower. Think about it. It's a very easy concept to understand, and a very important concept to know.
Top 3 Ylvis songs :
1 - Massachussetts
2 - StoneHenge
3 - The Cabin
I agree, though not with the order. I´d move the Cabin to the top!
I completely agree with you
dont forget jan egeland :D
KillerSteg
yeah it deserves the fourth place :)
:)
Alabama: "please not us.. please not us.."
Ylvis: "Massachusetts~"
Alabama: *PHEW
Please… Alabama would be lucky to receive this treatment.
Took care of our tourism advertising for the past decade with this one
They are in fact amazing talents. Amazing musicians too!
And here is a fact that nobody will care about: The bandleader of their talkshow is my guitar teacher! He is BTW the best guitarist I've ever seen in person!
I care. That's cool.
I know! Very cool!
We have America as a topic in my English class and because of this song, I know exactly when the Pilgrims came to America xD. Everytime our teacher asks something like "What was important for the history of America?" I say "1620, the Pilgrims came to Massachusetts on board of the Mayflower". And my teacher said that he'd appreciate my knowledge in in American history xD.
Americans saved the world from Great Britain in 1776, saved the world from Germany in 1918, and saved Great Britain from Germany in 1945.
5x WORLD CHAMPIONS - 1776, 1918, 1945, 1969, 1991! What are the other two? Well, I'll tell ya! Landing on the moon, and when the Soviet Union fell!
Ariadne thats pretty common knowledge
@@coraldayton yep
What’s up with Norwegians and ‘’xD’’? Fucking hell
As someone who grew up in Massachusetts, I had no idea Pingryville was a real place but it is! I thought they made it up lol. Can we make this the official state anthem?
also a born and raised masshole and had no clue - i thought it was a fake town! 😂😂
As somebody from the town next to Pingryville, it isn't really a real place. Nobody ever talks about Pingryville, not many people live there, and most people just call the area "east Ayer" or "south Littleton."
To their credit, though, there is a dance school in that part of Ayer.
I am actually coming back to this a lot of times a cross the years.
just a good song! 🤷♂️
I live in Massachusetts. I love it here.
What about the night life?

I feel so proud to live here
I live in Massachusetts too. It's the most boring place on earth I hate it here :p
William Dempsey oh come on i live in the most boring town in Massachusetts theres only 1 fun place to go
To be fair, this song is actually really well written in terms of music. The chord shifts and bass lines are great!
I listen to this almost every morning, it gets on the mood to face the day!
Legends always return here every year
I swear this song got written when when one of them had the thought "Wouldn't it be fun to have cheerleaders spell Massachusetts"
I wouldn't be surprised if that actually was the case,
Masakokko??? Massachewie???
The spirit of Massachuchetts is the spirit of America. The spirit of what's old and what's new
+Werner Beinhart The spirit of Massachusetts is the spirit of America, the spirit of the red white and blue.
+Corey Reedjr The spirit of Massachussets is the spirit of America. The spirit of the Fu Manchu.
+Werner Beinhart I'm Asian and I don't know Kung Fu
Where’s the new? The gays are the only new thing to come out of this state.
never have i ever been more proud to be a massachusetts citizen
I was in Makkakoko in 2002. Great memories.
The way Vegard looks at the camera in the “or a picnic in the park” verse, like “let’s pretend everything is normal, you have no idea of what’s going on next”… The song is awesome overall, but from that part on it’s AWETHÔME, I always end laughing.
As a person from Massachusetts, I am very happy to see the world famous All black Massachusetts choir
When I was a child, I lived in Boston, Massachusetts.... It was really nice city, and people were really kind.
Massachusetts is still one of the best cities for me.
Stil awesome at every level
Rewatching this in 2022. Anyone else?
I drove there down from Canada with a friend last week end. Nothing more than friends I swear.
And yeah we drank, I fainted, he threw up, I threw up in my sleep, he threw up some more, and then threw up the whole of the next day as I was driving him back.
It didn't go well.
1st he
GregTom2 that why we have so bad drivers 2/4 of our divers are dunk.
the donkey man Don't worry I didn't drive drunk. I dont drive if I drank at all, ever. Someone very dear to me was hit by a drunk driver once,
GregTom2 You know you can do that at home right? haha
+GregTom2 I'd say that went very well but maybe we have different perceptions about what makes a good weekend.
Ylvis! Almost all the stuff you do makes me laugh uncontrollably... and when it does not, it touches me. You guys have a way to make nice music with humouristic lyrics that usually have a message to deliver and your talk show is also great. What you produce is a mix of all the things I enjoy.
I freaking love how Vegard is just dancing away by himself at 3:10 hahahaha
Im from massachusetts and I havent heard of this till today. It is truly 100% correct
Hehe. Well,they are Norwegian comedians with their own talk show in Norway and have had for years (even before the American «The lonely Island). Ylvis is two brothers, Vegard and Bård Ylvisåker, here with their sidekick Calle). They have made many great songs for their talk show. They also made «The fox» (What does the fox say?) who went viral with 1 billion views worldwide.
I never get tired of this video , and random lyrics makes it more fun
Me too. They were the best thing i knew last year
Sometimes when i read the comments, i have the feeling that people just lack sense of sarcasm
Hell yes, hell yes...
Heeeeeeeeelllllllllll yeeeeeessssssssss! Thank you!
That and people get buthurt as fuck
OK. I saw the Explicit Lyrics warning and 2/3 through I couldn't figure out why. Well, then I was walking and . . . . . well. Had to back it up and play it again. Thank goodness for subtitles to make sure I heard what I thought I heard. I love Ylvis!
These guys are phenomenal musicians this song makes me feel happy to be to alive and that bass line at the end dam boy they got chops
Well, who *hasn't* seen a hunk on the bus and thought, "Mm, I wanna sit on your lap!" ?
I haven't.
Some day you will, Harald. Some day!
i have
Boo
Cracklemere you did me a frighten
I live in Massachusetts and this has been very educational to me. I did not know that my state was the 14th biggest, nor that Nelson Mandela was born here. I also wasn't aware that there were any K's in the state name, but I'm glad that these guys told me.
Were you aware that kissing a man doesn't make you gay?
But of course, you don't take me for a fool?
Nelson Mandela was not born in Massachusetts.
Mandela Homes is an apartment complex in Roxbury. Mandela,MA was proposed as a new city in 1986, but was voted down in a referendum. They're not talking about the home of Mandela himself, but of an apartment complex :D
Emma Williams ommm, really? wait, this is ylvis. so you are wrong if you thought it has to be taken word by word.
lol
No matter how average I'm feeling, this song always makes me feel on top of it all.
! EXACTLY
i'm from massachusetts and yes,
yes, it really is this magical.
This is incredible. Every Ylvis "song" is like a masterpiece
In my South African history class, we were listening to some serious apartheid-era music about Mandela's imprisonment and all I could think about was 1:12-1:20 of this song. Had to stifle laughter.
Wish Ylvis (and Calle) can still release songs in the future 💗
I keep coming back to this song every few years, is such a masterpiece
I love it! They are funny and kind of refreshing. They put smile on my face. They can sing for sure. First time I see so much work put in songs that are meant to be comedy, but they are simply very talented.
3:31 that creepy guy in the background with the drink is everywhere
Omg, that made me watch the clip again🤯
Israel Chua lol he really is
It's Pen Gillette
He first appears at 1:50 on the front porch (lol)
I'm honestly dumbfounded by the fact that I've haven't heard of Ylvis as often as I would expect given the songs I'm binging on right now
I will never stop loving this song
not sure if this was a song about how good massachusetts is, or that its okay to be gay
+Mamacrow Helps kinda the same thing, amirite?
😂😂
+Mamacrow Helps Well... Neither, actually..
+lex224ification why don't you shut up with your homophobic ways you disgusting walrus.
Swaheeli Tika Excuse me? How exactly am I homophobic?
I love how Vegard is still dancing when Calle is telling the cheerleaders how to spell it! ^_^
Bahahaha I love that
This Boston girl LOVES this anthem to her home state!
All of their other songs are fantastic, but Calle just makes this so much better tbh
Check out his work with Raske Menn: Rødhette og Ulven
You guys are genius. When I had a bad day it needs just one or two of your hilarious videos to cheer me up and give me the best mood ever.
Never stop what you are doing.
Ylvis for World-President(s).
These guys make the goofiest songs, but I'm always amazed by their songwriting prowess. There is some seriously skillful musicianship going on here.
Going to Massachusetts for the first time tomorrow, I’m gonna play this song when I’ll cross the state line that’s for sure.
I honestly think this song ranks in the top 10 of best song writing ever. And than it's entertaining as well.
