The internet is weird. I recognize Sam Wilkes (bassist) from the "F*** It Up" video. And the CEO of patreon is going ham on the keyboard, and they're all playing a funk themed rendition of a pop boy band hit from the '90s.
Hey Scary Pockets FANS!! What UP! I hope you enjoy Casey Abrams kicking some Backstreet ass in this week's video! In the meantime, just wanted to let y'all know that we recorded four new tunes yesterday, and we'll be releasing them over the course of the next month or so, once per week as per usual! And back by popular demand for the next round of videos: acoustic drums! Coming next week. So look forward to it! And also in the works: I've been having fun playing around with lighting rigs to combine acoustic and electronic drums and lights into an awesome audio/visual explosion. I'm pretty excited about, and I think you'll dig it! Thanks again for hanging with us and watching our videos!!!
If you guys take requests... here are a few: Green Day - Basket Case Everclear - Santa Monica Blink 182 - All the Small Things Spin Doctors - Two Princes
Scary Pockets the world's got to check you guys out, never stop doing these funk covers! I'll be here every week liking every post, u guys fucking rock as fuck!
Great work, guys! I'm a big fan of yours, will you perform a Christmas song? It would be really nice (Last Christmas or any other) Keep it up w/the good work 👍 Cheers from Mexico 🇲🇽
Пересмотрела залпом 3 (!) раза. Улыбалась все время. Без остановки. Эти невероятные люди на короткий промежуток выдернули меня из реальности и озарили фантомным счастьем в "моменте". Кайфовые, радужные, солнечные и смешливые-ееееееее до ора.
Spot on. My two favorites are this and the "Say a Little Prayer" featuring Kenton Chen. You can see how much fun everyone is having, you know it's good cuz they know its good, and you can see that they know its good.
@@brianjackson93 Thanks for mentioning that - I checked it out and absolutely love it. Kenton Chen's amazing! I think "If Vulfpeck wrote MMMBop by Hanson" is a lot of fun too.
Shirt : awesome Hair: awesome Dancing: more awesome Singing: Beyond Awesome The band: beyond perfection I thought that being in my 30s meant no more band crushes!!!
I'm 50. YES... FIFTY. I've been playing since I was 18. Played in lots of bands with different styles. THIS IS STRAIGHT FIRE. Even when the original song came out, I was 27 and like... YAWN. I had come from the Grunge era and Nirvana, Pearl Jam etc. etc. But the more you get into music, the more you appreciate all kinds. This really shows how the original Backstreet Boys version holds up. Who would have thunk it? LOL. This is one of the best covers I've ever heard in my life. The only thing you can really think after hearing this is... H O L Y S H I T.
Piano Guy: Im coming Singer: Im gonna rock this Drummer: this is so much fun Bass: Im feeling this Guitar Guy: Im one hundred percent sure that I left the oven on. Shit I really need to go home and turn it off. Fuck Im sure it already burned down. And I dont have any insurance. I hope I can sleep on my friends couch. I regret so many things...
I keep thinking, “I probably won’t like this one because I was never a fan of that original song”. And then I watch/listen and am always blown away. Great stuff, please keep it up!
The guitar and keys at 2:28 is perfect, how they swirl around each other. It's beautiful.
Swirl! That's the perfect description
Whatever I do in my life, I want to do it as passionately and as funky as the Keyboard Guy playing the keys.
Accounting....bit with fonk.
Check out @pomplamoose; I think he's the main keyboardist for that group. Even if he isn't, their keyboardist is just as dope.
That's Jack Conte, he's the CEO of Patreon
His feeling it
I have a hard time deciding if he's super hot or...

Brian Jackson The economy is collapsing but it’s a beautiful time to be alive.
@@aMolleTargate no its hasnt
Is that actually the ceo of patreon?
@@_daut7928 Yep, Co-Founder and CEO of Petreon.
4 years and countless phenomenol covers later, this one is still my absolute favourite. The energy is explosive!
Same here man. Loved this cover
Same here too
Same... I can't get over how awesome this one is.
Yes it's a trusted mood-elevator.
Casey!
Casey is the hype man, front man, back up dancers and goddam support act and I am here for it!
The tone Sam has on his bass here is mindblowing. It's so round and bouncey

We love the electronic kit, too! A mix of both is nice.
Nearly spat my drink out at the vocalist getting all hype at start and then realizing he's outta breath cuz of it lmao. Great cover, great energy!
Sam Wilkes is right up there with Michael League for "best bass face". Great tune! Love Scary Pockets.
cant. stop. smiling.
Casey is one of the most dynamic singers ever. more of him please!
marsdog yes cassey! 😍😍😍
I love when Casey Abrams does the chicken dance in all videos lol
Me too, looking like he so happy
5 people expressing themselves in totally unique ways yet achieving a harmony that dares to graze ascendancy.
ノリが良くて、とても楽しい曲に仕上がっていて感動しました。何よりメンバー皆さん楽しそうで素晴らしいです☆
I never thought that I would need a cover of a Backstreet Boys song in my life. I was so wrong. This is fantastic.
When i realise i'm singing this to myself in public i want to explain " No no, it's the cover !"
@@dewimatthews6037 i hear u. but tbh, the orig is also great. the one really great song they had... there's something about it
I just discovered this. I've literally been listening to it over and over and over again for the past 45 minutes.
Omg I just discovered this channel , can't stop listening
I'm Korean but I just can't stop watching this😂 I love the vocal guy and his energy!
Hey. I'm not Korean. Lol. But all good. We ALL love this. Nothin' but respect.
That was high-energy and so much fun. Very creative and groovy interpretation of the original.

The bassist is wearing a 4XXXXL t-shirt
Dont be disrespectful. Thats drake, that dude from degrassi.
Looks like T rex on bass
I just fell out - that's FUNNY - have a BLESSED DAY
Had to make room for all the extra fonk
nick sinkewicz LOL I JUST NOTICED HAHAAA
AAAAAAAAAHHHHH I LOVE CASEY ABRAMS WAY TOO MUCH ❤ freaking out right now
This is the best cover you guys have put out recently. The electric elements really land here and this guys voice rocks
If you don't know him, the singer also performs a lot with Postmodern Jukebox and he's GREAT, they have an amazing cover of What is Love
Couldnt agree more!
Spot on. My two favorites are this and the "Say a Little Prayer" featuring Kenton Chen. You can see how much fun everyone is having, you know it's good cuz they know its good, and you can see that they know its good.
Love this song. ..nice ..

The shirts, the vibe, the talent, the feels, the communication between these dudes, the obvious brilliance... gyaaaaaah! I LOVE IT!!!
Shirt : awesome
Hair: awesome
Dancing: more awesome
Singing: Beyond Awesome
The band: beyond perfection
I thought that being in my 30s meant no more band crushes!!!
And Of Course... Hotel: Trivago
@@ultrascorpionx5022 thank goodness you exist. Thank you for saying that, for being that awesome. Truly. Thank you
@@csmith4149 👍🏻💪🏻
This will be my new morning exercise music 😂 . Btw I really like Casey's voice through that microphone
This is definitely one of y’all’s best remixes, absolutely loved it!
What a version dude!! Mind blowing!! I mean you guys are insaneeeee

I’m in middle thirtieth, I was like 5 or 6 year old when I heard this for first time. Still alive as if it was yesterday. Fresh songs never like fruit
How AMAZING is this Cover??? I am obssesed!!!
this sounds so much better than the original. And the energy of the musicians is totally contagious. Cheers from Portugal.
its awesome seeing musicians feeling their music, especially when they kill it!
This is amazing.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It is. IT IS.
Hi jonny. You are my fav pianist
This voice is fantastic, I fell in love and this funny interpretation, when I hear this song I always have a good mood❤️😍😂😂
Excellent positive world class vibes
I love how you jus casually joggin on the spot, and belting out that amazing voice, on key & time lol 😲
Casey Abrams.... my new favorite singer of 2017!
I'm sensing a PMJ and Scary Pockets collab coming soon...I really hope I'm right :D
That chicken dance is awesome!!
Лучшее, что я видел! Класс! Ничего круче нет играть в бенде и так филить бит!
Piano Guy: Im coming
Singer: Im gonna rock this
Drummer: this is so much fun
Bass: Im feeling this
Guitar Guy: Im one hundred percent sure that I left the oven on. Shit I really need to go home and turn it off. Fuck Im sure it already burned down. And I dont have any insurance. I hope I can sleep on my friends couch. I regret so many things...
These comments are truly blessings
😂😂😂
love
Absolute genius! Good on you!
That is one of the best comments Ive read in a long time. Made med laugh out hard
Meu, como amo esse cover!!! Sempre danço quando ouço!! Os melhores!! 🎶🎶🎤🎤😍👏
Man this is so fun! This song is a true jam. Jon Banquil did an 80s power ballad remix of this song and I think you guys would love it!
Hands down the best cover I've ever heard of I Want It That Way!
This is why I love RUclips. No more gatekeepers to great music and solid talent.
Casey is fun as hell!
no
Casey is the only man in the world I'll permit to wear both that shirt and that hair.
Amazing and very funny performance! The best cover! Congratulations!
Wow, I'm loving the bass and the whole arrangement. It's refreshingly unique 😂 Really digging this version 👍
Man yes!! Everything was so well put together
Great singer, such range. Piano guy is feeling it. Keep going pockets
Yes, but feeling what? His part is nothing special, strange to feel so much for something like that!
this is exactly what I thought this band would look like when I found them on spotify- a couple of goofy music nerds absolutely killing it
I listen to this every damn day. It's so good.
This is my fav of scary pockets so far!
Check out Rocky Raccoon but I agree and watch at least once a day
Just giggeling through the whole song. SO amazing
I sure do want it that way! Love the infectious beats and roller coaster vocals...watta great sound guys! 🎼💯🎶🔥🎵🥰
Brother just shared this with me and my siblings… my day, week, month, etc. is happier because of his share.
Thanks scary pockets.
Excellent positive vibe
I can't stop listen this channel! These guys put all the energy on every performance, so good...!
i 100 percent agree...i love these guys
OMG.. Honestly, the best singer in this channel! Cheers from Brazil!
These never fail to make me smile OMG so good so great so yes
Wow the delivery of those vocals is just so soulful 😍
one of my fave scary pockets cover
Wow that was brilliant!
I laughed, I cried... I laughed so hard I cried. Beautiful.
I don't understand how I can love this so much, but I really do.
Casey is always so fun and intense! Love this guy since his American Idol days💗
j'adore ce chanteur ! Wonderfull heart and energy that put LifeLove and Light on the funky music
I swear that bassist always wears shirts that make him like like a t-Rex playing the bass. Even in his videos with Louis Cole 😂
I think he's not that much into the singer's way of approaching this.
the tyrannosaurus cafe here is looking for help - turns out they're.... short handed.
Cant stop smiling really love this cover. 😊
This guy and his vocals came out of left field and I love it. Wtf.
you are to be congratulated. what amazing musicians.
It's cool how music on RUclips is a community and you all end up on each other's channels
OHHH MAN CASEY, MASTERS!!!!!!!! X 2
Jake Peralta: “Now number fiiive...”
My thought exactly
😂😂😂😂😂
Honestlyyyy 😂😂😂
Lmao 🤣
Exactly this 😂😂😂
Now this is "jamming with my bandmates!" Awesome rendition. 👌🏻 😎💯Chill.
OMG, there is so much funk, expertise, love, and fun in this video that I don't believe this is found anywhere else but with these guys !
Я в шоке! Такой заряд позитива и энергии, это что-то!!! Солист крутейший!!!И музыканты суперские!!!
The guitar dude looks like he's just trying to make it through the song alive after taking bad shrooms and is tripping out way harder than he expected
Theyre all experience different trips from different substances 🤣
🤣 I totally agree what's happening here is each one of them is taking a different type of drug as some sort of experiment??
2:10 from this point on the song went from an 8 to a friggin 10!!!!!
Guys, return to the acoustic drums please!!! good job!!!
Casey Abrams rasp is a gift to the world 🤩 This is a great cut. Thanks, guys!
Never had so much fun watching a music video. Is there an Oscar award for Visual Music Performance Of The Year?
The keys player looks like he might just befriend a russian scientist defector nicknamed Smirnoff
That's the reason why I felt that I saw that guy before...
Gotta love a stranger things reference ... and it can't be him .. he **** (spoiler)
@@dobhakundobhakun6380 You also might know him as the CEO/founder of patreon
ALEXEI!!! 😂
Vlad Tainapopa This is the comment I came looking for.
What a great voice! I really like this version; great job, guys. And visually, it's fun too.
Bassist- Give me a large t-shirt.
Shopkeeper- How large?
Bassist-YES
thank you for making me actually laugh out loud.
I keep thinking, “I probably won’t like this one because I was never a fan of that original song”. And then I watch/listen and am always blown away. Great stuff, please keep it up!
That was unexpectedly fantastic
I don't know Michael from Vsauce is a good keyboardist.
He's also the CEO of Patreon.
Lol! Love it.
and POMPLAMOOSE
And I didn't know that Jeff Goldblum was such a good guitar player!
I’m done with all these replies 😂😂😂
Wow this was awesome 😂
This is SOOOOO much better than the original.
GREAT SOUND‼️
I needed to see this 5 times to see each one, one by one. They are awesome !!!
never expected to enjoy boyband music so much. brilliant
I just discovered you guys.. I love your music! Beautiful uplifting arrangements... You make me happy!
When you just realize that the groovy pianist is the CEO of Patreon
I thought this was a joke, holy shit
All the singers you use are great... but Casey Abrams is the most entertaining and should just be the official singer.
I smile just for their smile to each others ! You are the best
Sam Wilkes and Joe Dart play the bass with pure emotion. I effing love it. And I love the pockets..Gotta see em live one day
that fckin' bass is awesome, bass G!
Come see us July 9th in Los Angeles, CA at Grand Performances! www.grandperformances.org/events/scary-pockets
Straight fire.
Maaaan those guys are the cure for my depression 😂😂😂👏👏👏👏 love youuu
Keyboard guy just makes me so happy, he has so much fun !
This seems like it was way more fun to do than anyone originally thought
