      “If they were a little more talented as a group they could be something”
      In Australia and New Zealand they are something. They are a great comedy band.
      Also that song at the end, birdplane, that is one of their songs

      I found this song a long time ago. It’s great! Unfortunately, I only found two great songs by these guys, from around the same time. The other song is ‘How To Write A Love Song’. I think you will enjoy it equally or more: ruclips.net/video/L2cfxv8Pq-Q/видео.htmlsi=ufbExVM3EYt4BMEi

    There is a video of them doing this song at a concert. In the intro, Benny says to Jordan, "They [the audience] know all about this. Why don't you?" and Jordan answers "I am feigning ignorance to maintain a comedic conceit."

    The reason "Canvas Bags" gets such a big laugh is because Tim Minchin had just been on stage and performed it - they dropped it in at the last minute as an extra joke. There are also many different versions of this song that they do - as you say, they could go on for hours.

      As an Aussie that saw this years ago..I am just so proud of this act! -And just love it when I see someone (especially foreigners) see it for the first time.
      They not only got the base joke of the whole act down, but they build something creative and completely engaging in every single verse...practically every line ups the ante.
      From Jolly Swagman to C'mon Barbie, to Canvas Bags...and Canvas Bags was hard to top considering Minchin had only just played it on stage...but the finale ,"Now doesn't that sound familiar?"...and the final stroke of genius, "That's all it takes to be a star."
      Just so, so well put together.
      P.S. I've seen a lot of versions, and almost always noone catches the first joke before the song , "we've been a band for close to 40yrs now...". (they're each about 30!).
      I've even heard them ramp it up to 50, and it still goes over everyone's head!

      I always saw it as Benny being the brains of the operation, Jordan being probably the more conventional singer/rock musician, and Lee just being there for comedic relief. Although you can argue that Benny is probably a better singer than Jordan too.

    The thing to keep in mind about Axis of Awesome is that they are "comedians who use music" rather than "musicians who use comedy."
    Benny -- the piano player -- is the only actual musician in the group, the others being actors/comedians who have some musical talent. Lee -- the guy with the guitar who you wondered what he was doing -- is actually their primary songwriter.
    Benny, by the way, has a series of solo videos where he examines "the other four chords."

    This admittedly isn't Jordan's best performance, imo - I don't know if they worked with a voice coach later, but they got a lot tighter as a group as time went on. Lee (the one with the guitar) can't really sing, so they play that up for comic effect (they also act as tho he's very dim, but as he's their tech person -among other things- I'm pretty sure that''s also just for comic effect). I love AoA & really hope they start touring again someday! I adore their songs 'I Love Being A Cow' (it's a Christmas song! lol), '1 in 3', & 'The Glorious Epic of 3 Guys Who Are Awesome'; honorable mention goes to 'We Are So Young'! Check them out sometime!

Unfortunately the reason it works is it gives a subconscious sense of familiarity that makes new pop songs already feel warm and nice and thus can also easily become hits. It's all about making money at the end of the day.

    I personal think, that the reason we tend to like theese songs with the 4 cords is because, there are som much noise in our daily rutines..., cars, planes, PEOPLE, traffic in general and tv's, music, radio and so on and on and on...
    We have started to found peace in some minor things..., we can't go BIG in how we hear music, because we are so feed up by noice, talk and so on, so many people can't relate to more than 4 cords in general...
    We are emposed on the fact, that we are hurting our self, with all the things we want to do..., instead of the things we need to do, therefor we use our limited amount of energy on many things, and therefor we can't get too much envolment in each thing...
    Just my theory.... 😋🦿🔉🎤🔊🎶🎵🎼
    And it has always been like that..., some people like some things better than other..., some like Beethoven, others Bach, or Mozart..., but even then it was the ear..., by time we have been inclined to hear more and more of the same...

    The middle dude reminds me of that person you know that sings well, but you can't help but think "If only you had some professional teaching, you'd be phenomenal". I don't mean that as an insult either, I love this song and I think both it and Axis of Awesome are...well...awesome!

    They DO go on and on and on. Each version they play, they use different songs. Not 100% new songs every time, but they do mix it all up.
    Also, the big about the bird plane bit was a reference to another original song they've done. Which is why it didn't quite fit.

    Quite a few years before an Australian singer by the name of Jon English did something similar with three of his own hit songs that were, as he put it, the same song written three times. (Or was it four, it was 25 odd years ago)
    I always wanted to ask Benny if that's where the idea came from.
