I'm not sure if it's true or not, but I heard a story that Denis Leary's son was singing this song while at school and was sent to the principal's office about it. Upon calling Mr. Leary to the school and asking where his son heard the song, his response was "Heard it? Lady, I WROTE it!"
First way to explain…. He’s a former SNL cast member, close to the ancient era, when it was actually funny. He played a fireman in the series “Rescue Me”..Possibly where you’ve seen him
To answer her question about "How we find this?" Let's get this straight. There was a time when the internet wasn't really a big thing. This was on PUBLIC TELEVISON, not the internet. Long before everyone got offended at every little thing. Back when MTV, VH1, BET, etc. still played music videos all/most of the day. When Beavis and Butthead was something you had to sneak around to watch if you were a kid. Where Aon Flux was the weirdest animation you'd ever seen, and South Park was still in it's infancy. Basically an era that wasn't all about censorship and canceling everything.
Omg I didn’t think Denis Leary would be on here! He has two hilarious Stand ups called No Cure for Cancer and Lock n Load. Incase you missed it or didn’t know, he’s also the sabertooth tiger (Diego) in Ice Age edit: I did t realize you had a kid, you definitely need to see “kids” bit in LNL
This video is so 90s. I remember watching Denis Leary and Colin Quinn on MTV in the 90s. Denis has been in movies and done some voices for animated films. So that is why is familiar. When I see him in serious a role, I expect him to be a comedian. Check out "The Ref" if you want to see a dark comedy movie with Denis Leary. And if you have seen LL Cool J's "Going Back to Cali" video I suggest watching Collin Quinn's video "Goin Back to Brooklyn"
his series 'rescue me' was amazing. played a nyc firefighter after 911. was very dark. an alcoholic dude who sees death on a daily basis while his life was crumbling away around him going through divorce. my 3rd fav series of all time after sopranos and breaking bad
they played this on mtv and the radio stations wouldnt, but a few did,, my friends and i would blast it on repeat driving down the street next to school in highschool lmao
You guys are cute. I have been jumping around my kitchen for years to this song! Not sure the first time I heard it…. I can’t explain but I just have to say, as a Canadian, this makes so much sense.
this song turned up in the local pub jukebox about 25yrs ago and in a town full of farmers/farm hands & shearers this song quickly became a rocking night staple that usaully got at least a full pub sing a longs (about 30-40 ppl) once or twice a night
Y'all got that history on the wall behind ya and never heard of Dennis Leary. This is part of the reason for Gen X not caring,...we make fun of EVERYTHING! Yes, you missed it,..didn't live it.... But glad you love it. =P
Within the context of the time this song was made it was a brilliant push back while calling out some of the worst people for who they are. Like others have said check out his stand up special. We not searching, we just old. You young folks just wouldn't know. This song was on the radio on the regular back in the day. You like this also check out George Carlins work.
IT'S AN AMAZINGGGG DVD TOO CHOD :) 2 CONCERTS IN IT HE WAS REALLYYYY BIG INTO SUPPORTING THE FIREFIGHTERS YOU GUYS AND YESSSSS DEE, HE WAS ON A SHOW CALLED ( RESCUE ME ) :)
I actually grew up listening to him back in the '90s before I got huge in the movies he's f****** funny he's got a whole couple comedy specials that are f****** hilarious this was from one of those this is f****** awesome my opinion that I'm a middle-aged white guy that's sick of everybody
This used to play on a music request channel called “the box” back in the 90’s. You only got this channel if u DIDNT have cable tv. So all of us broke ass kids had the box instead of mtv. 😂
"What are you guys searching?" Uh, nothing. We were alive when it came out. Back when "searching" for information required a trip to the library/card catalogue or crackin' that encyclopedia Britannica.
Denis was on a tv show called Rescue Me from 2004-2011 and was the main character. It was a show about firefighters in NYC, i think. And btw, i LOVE this freakin' song !!.....LMFAO
This is from Leary’s Debut Comedy Album/Special No Cure for Cancer it’s without a doubt a flawless stand up special the last track of the Album “Voices in My Head” is actually better imo in reality Leary tried to mimic Bill Hicks but, no comedian is original
Great tune! My favorite Ray song has to be the Mississippi Squirrel Revival. Living in the country, I had more than one experience with those little monsters lol.
This was standard fare in the early 90s. All the post 80s macho men lamenting the end of the previous decade's tough guy fetishism - Arnold and Sylvester movies plus republicans sabre rattling the USSR ad naseum. During the 90s those "tough guy" days were over. Those movies weren't selling and those politics weren't winning. Comedians like Leary and Miller were the dying breed's last shout.
Always Look on the Bright Side of Life by Monty Python (with video). The Homecoming Queen's got a Gun. Bo Burnham's got some you might enjoy. OH GUYS! Masochism Tango by Tom Lehrer! you gotta.
Yeah indeed movies and TV comedian I feel so old I was in 8th grade when this came out on MTV🤦 my mom absolutely hated it until he got to the the baby seals skin hubcaps and then she just lost it
Louis CK did a bit on this same sort of thing that Denis Leary stole for this song...Leary is known unflatteringly for stealing other comedian's material. Taking Bill Hicks' bit on smoking is the main offender.
I'm not sure if it's true or not, but I heard a story that Denis Leary's son was singing this song while at school and was sent to the principal's office about it. Upon calling Mr. Leary to the school and asking where his son heard the song, his response was "Heard it? Lady, I WROTE it!"
He mentioned it in a stand up bit
Boy, you missed the 90s
His special. No cure for cancer was hilarious. Stand up . This song was part of it
Was going to suggest the same.
he stole moste of those from Bill Hicks
No cure for cancer lock n load are amazing specials actually all of his specials are great
Dennis Leary is a talentless hack
@@sephuris5555 Lol all his comedy is stolen
First way to explain…. He’s a former SNL cast member, close to the ancient era, when it was actually funny. He played a fireman in the series “Rescue Me”..Possibly where you’ve seen him
Yep. When it was actually funny.
@@Will008 He was never a cast member on SNL, he hosted.
@@PGLAMB1978 ty!
Dennis us known for his crazy angry rants. He’s shocking and wonderful.

And we ain't changing our language for offended people. Go fck ourself. LOL. Gen X has spoken.
Omg I didn’t think Denis Leary would be on here! He has two hilarious Stand ups called No Cure for Cancer and Lock n Load. Incase you missed it or didn’t know, he’s also the sabertooth tiger (Diego) in Ice Age edit: I did t realize you had a kid, you definitely need to see “kids” bit in LNL
We are old folks, this is are history. Now we just sharing it with you.

his series 'rescue me' was amazing. played a nyc firefighter after 911. was very dark. an alcoholic dude who sees death on a daily basis while his life was crumbling away around him going through divorce. my 3rd fav series of all time after sopranos and breaking bad
And where do you rank The Wire? ;)
The season with Michael J. Fox was absolutely hilarious!
This song was on MTV and the radio, that’s how we know it!
🤣🤣🤣 Yyeeeesssssss!! This was the perfect return reaction!! I totally spit coffee all over my phone! Thank y'all!! P.L.U.R.R. from ATX!!
they played this on mtv and the radio stations wouldnt, but a few did,, my friends and i would blast it on repeat driving down the street next to school in highschool lmao
This was number 1 in Australia, im guessing many other countries around the world too
He played an excellent role in The Thomas Crown Affair too.
You might remember him from the spider man movies. Two of them . He was a cop father of his girlfriend. And he played a firefighter in a tv show .
Also demolition man! Check out the movie the ref.. his best
You guys are cute. I have been jumping around my kitchen for years to this song! Not sure the first time I heard it….
I can’t explain but I just have to say, as a Canadian, this makes so much sense.
We didn't have a search history back then LOL. We heard about these things from each other and radio shows, etc.
This was a classic music video from the early 90s
This song was played on the radio and MTV in the early 90s.
An incredible testament to Truth itself 😁🤣🤘❤️🤟
Still funny that this is the guy that voiced a sabertooth tiger in Iceage lmao
This is not in our search history we are just old enough to remember this when it came out😜😂👍
I always like to imagine Diego from Ice Age's character model singing this...since that is Denis Leary.
Denis Leary's "no cure for cancer" is hilarious.
this song turned up in the local pub jukebox about 25yrs ago and in a town full of farmers/farm hands & shearers this song quickly became a rocking night staple that usaully got at least a full pub sing a longs (about 30-40 ppl) once or twice a night
Excellent!!! He spoke the truth.
He debuted this song on one of his standup specials.
Y'all got that history on the wall behind ya and never heard of Dennis Leary. This is part of the reason for Gen X not caring,...we make fun of EVERYTHING! Yes, you missed it,..didn't live it.... But glad you love it. =P
We're searching 1992, and we were there.
Denis had another fun song off this release, a song called "Voices in My Head" lol. It was just as surreal lol.
Dennis leary is the voice fir the sabertooth tiger in ice age.
Ah the 90s, best time to be a teenager
Back in the day people owned it these days they curl up & cry about "feeling safe"
You might know denis leary from his role as captain george stacy the father of gwen stacy in the amazing spider-man 1 and 2
It was part of his stand up act. Which is very good too.
Within the context of the time this song was made it was a brilliant push back while calling out some of the worst people for who they are. Like others have said check out his stand up special. We not searching, we just old. You young folks just wouldn't know. This song was on the radio on the regular back in the day. You like this also check out George Carlins work.
And such a fkn incredible voice!🤘❤️🤟
Its not "What are you guys searching to find this" Its more us saying to you "How have you NOT heard this song before?"
it was played on the radio and on MTV.
Honestly, at our age this stuff was just on the tv. 😆
Yay!!!! Ben dying for someone to react to this. Love it. Lmao
heres a mind blower, he was the dad in The Sandlot
Denis is an actor and comedian
Really love this song a lot people
Dennis Leary used some of his stand up in demolition man.
Most of us had to live through all this during the days of freedom to come up with this stuff. Class of 86 baby
Since not one person I’ve seen has mentioned this - yum .hands on the bbq delicious.
You don’t have to search for legends. They just are.
Dennis Leary is an awesome comedian and actor,Judgement Night is one of my favorite movies and soundtracks
I miss the 90's
he was awesome in the show RESCUE ME which I find to be more accurate with firefighting then shows of today in my opinion
Since you have kids, you might have the ice age cartoons right? Yeah thats the cat by the way. Dennis leaey is the voice of diego the sabee tooth 🙃🤣😭🤣
Absolutely love it
Denis Leary is hilarious!!! Love him!
Movie reaction : Denis Leary Ed Lover and Dr. Dre In (Who's The Man).

There’s still no cure for cancer, but this song is a great cure for not laughing. Clears that condition right up.
this song came out before you two were born 😂

That "Stress ball" was a silicone breast implant 🤣
This used to play on a music request channel called “the box” back in the 90’s. You only got this channel if u DIDNT have cable tv. So all of us broke ass kids had the box instead of mtv. 😂
Denis Leary is a comedian

Red pill!!!
"What are you guys searching?"
Uh, nothing. We were alive when it came out. Back when "searching" for information required a trip to the library/card catalogue or crackin' that encyclopedia Britannica.

You should react to his No Cure For Cancer performance, or Lock N Load
We saw it live...
I'm 90 percent sure I wrote this song in my sleep
He's a genuis!
This is from Leary’s Debut Comedy Album/Special No Cure for Cancer it’s without a doubt a flawless stand up special the last track of the Album “Voices in My Head” is actually better imo in reality Leary tried to mimic Bill Hicks but, no comedian is original
Bro, you can act like you don't know. If you have kids, and are married, you know. Damn it, you know!!!!
Not stress relievers....lmao
Great reaction! You should go really disgusting with Yeast Infection by Larry Pierce. :P
You should check out anything from Ray Stevens, The Streak is a good place to start.
Great tune! My favorite Ray song has to be the Mississippi Squirrel Revival. Living in the country, I had more than one experience with those little monsters lol.

Gummi Bears, bouncing here and there and everywhere..

[ 4:04 ] - "Handicapped people making handicapped faces" WTF 😁😎🙏
Are these people from what we're yes I live in that
Always Look on the Bright Side of Life by Monty Python (with video). The Homecoming Queen's got a Gun. Bo Burnham's got some you might enjoy. OH GUYS! Masochism Tango by Tom Lehrer! you gotta.
