If you have ever seen Tenacious D live , then you know they are no fucking joke. They are truly one of the greatest bands of all time ! It is a life changing experience! I took my 13 year old Son with me ,and we had the most amazing time ! Do yourself a favor and see them live ,if you are lucky enough to get tickets.
@@2ndhorseman I actually didn't either. I was reading the comments and reading nothing but "Jack, Jack, Jack", not knowing which Jack it was. And as the song continued I was like it kinda sounds like Jack Black. And then I scroll up to see him take his mask off and I was like" WTF. It IS him!"
He's fuckin nasty too. Just check out the intro song to Conan's show. He shreds it up jazz style. It's funny because his playing with Springstein is so boring and tame lol
Lovely to see the D early in their career Jacks vocals and enthusiasm brings a tear to my eye. Also VERY pleased to hear Conan let the lyrics ‘grab his scrote’ stay in for the performance 😂
The best version of this song. The camera work is excellent. My wife and I sing this song together, except she's nasty girl. We like it a lot. I listen to it every morning when I wake up. Thank you for the upload.
Wow, the Max Weinberg 7 did a great job backing up the D. I wonder how much time they had to rehearse. Those guys are great musicians. I'd love to be the guitarist on a talk show and able to jam with all those great musicians.
Ryan McIntyre A week to rehearse one or two songs, hell I could do that. Still, they're pros. I have all the respect for them. That would be a very rewarding gig in my opinion. Of all the working musicians in the world, only a few really get to be superstars. A talk show gig or something like that would be the next best thing.
Paul TheSkeptic Oh hell yeah! This would be amazing. Remember they're learning not just those two new songs every week, but whatever songs they play during the show, commercial breaks, and if they backup the guest artist like you see here. I've done a little bit of studio work and professional music work (not to this level) and I can tell you that it's still "work". Guys like this are professional because they behave that way and earn it. I'm definitely impressed.
Ryan McIntyre Yeah, forgot about that. Yes, I agree. The guys who make it are the guys who don't drink all the time and are on time with everything learned and ready to go. ie: the professionals. That's probably why I never made it very far with my music. XD
You can tell how good this song is by Conan's band. Those dudes are longtime pros, they've played everything I bet, and to see them get into it (bass and drums especially) is quite awesome. Love the D!
3:10 notice how KG approach the guitar player so he can help him to finish the solo, KG said in a interview that part is hard for him because he is playing on acoustic... in this video we can see both guitar players have good chemistry.
Final lyric: "You take the high road... I'll take the low. There. At the CREVACE! Fill it! With your MIGHTY JUICE." .... totally talking about DPing a broad.
I love watching the bassist slowly getting in the groove and by the end he's headbanging away, you can tell these guys are absolute pro's and are just having some fun 🤘
***** I agree, it is Kyle's music and he owns it, and good point about prep time, HOWEVER, if you're playing on national TV, you take the time to get it right as you're running a solo along side the original artist. :)
It's still a hell of a scale to try to pull off live, whether or not you've rehearsed. Kyle did it perfect here, but even KG doesn't even try it at some shows.
I remember watching this when it aired in early highschool. I remember thinking... "Isn't that guy an actor or something?". Loved the performance. Loved Conan, too. I ended up picking up the album at a local record shop called the Electric Fetus and had to listen to it in private at home because of all the profanity. It's now one of all-time favorite records and one of the few I can sing along (and rant about inward singing) to, word for word. Long live the D! Lead as Two Kings!
They unironically made a masterpiece of a song. So sincere, innocent and pure melodies with such dirty lyrics 😭 You have to be a genius to achieve that. Long live the D! 🦸♀️😈👊🏼🔥
Wish I could go back the the simple times of listening to Tenacious D with friends and laughing our a***s off. Such a simpler time 😪 they'll never be good times like that again with this new culture around...
I guffaw everytime I hear Wonderboy, this live version brought forth tears...of joy. Lol...Max Weinberg drumming like Dylan is standing in front of him, lol. JB is a killer singer in that style, Kyle is a monster on acoustic...watch the HBO show and some of the bits he plays are ruthless...
I miss the days of staying up way too late on a school night, watching these performances and enjoying seeing Max fill in for a band. Damn I’m getting old :(
I'll never forget my friend letting me borrow this album back in 2002, and my complete disbelief that that goofy bastard Jack Black had such an incredible voice.
and so much hate in the eyes of jack black when Conan the scuz-bucket came over and bowed to him. he's like "don't you bow to me you fucking spunk-bubble, i don't need your approval"
My mans on drums has that look on his face like "Fuck man this is a Jazz kit, is the snare okay? It's never been hit with anything other than a toothbrush.
this video may have been posted in 2011,, but i remember seeing that on Conan waaaaaay before 2011, and going out the next day to buy their new album..im guessing 2001-2002
Who's the nerd on drums? Anyone?
Max Weinberg from Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band
@@snakedogenator and the 3 others are ?
It definitely isn't, Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee, Lee Lee Lee Lee Lee. Definitely not
A fuckin gangster. All u need to know
You must be young
Jack has one of the most under rated voices of all time.
+bennydman666 He's very well respected among the singers :P
Dariolicious Sleaze I didn't know that.
If you have ever seen Tenacious D live , then you know they are no fucking joke. They are truly one of the greatest bands of all time ! It is a life changing experience! I took my 13 year old Son with me ,and we had the most amazing time ! Do yourself a favor and see them live ,if you are lucky enough to get tickets.
I loved in High Fidelity before he was well known the part at the end where he sings and everyone is confused and blown away
he's in a beck video(i know old comment is old) check out the video for beck's song sexx laws
I love how they take off their silly little eye masks like they're revealing the most amazing plot twist ever. So good!!
I didn't even realize that it was Jack Black and Kyle Gas, and then..... GASPAH!!
cause they're not just artists, they're performers which elevates their art to a new level.
@@2ndhorseman I actually didn't either. I was reading the comments and reading nothing but "Jack, Jack, Jack", not knowing which Jack it was. And as the song continued I was like it kinda sounds like Jack Black. And then I scroll up to see him take his mask off and I was like" WTF. It IS him!"
Love how serious Conan's band is about it. haha
Why wouldn't they be?.. this is REAL ROCK
They're professionals. Can't expect less really.
They better be cause its Tenacious D!
They were playing with the best band in the world. What did you expect?
The drummer is killing it
Gotta love Max Weinberg. Dude looks like a pediatrician, yet he makes a living on the drums.
Lmao
+WhoAteMyFunDip You are the reason I love the internet.
ahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahaha!!!!
+WhoAteMyFunDip thanks for that.made my day.
He's fuckin nasty too. Just check out the intro song to Conan's show. He shreds it up jazz style. It's funny because his playing with Springstein is so boring and tame lol
LMFAO
i see everyone saying jack is an amazing singer, but wheres the credit for KG ?!?! hes a sick guitarist
sorry to hear that, ill miss him too :/
I agree KG is an amazing guitarist!!!! 😱😱😱 acoustic king
sick guitarist and backing vocals
Shut up
Where's the credit for whoever made those outfits?!?
The general crowd reaction: “what the hell was that and why did I like it?”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“This better not awaken anything in me...”
Jack's voice is so darn beautiful :'(
Aha Türk,vay amk tek degilmisim.
Kyle's finger be silver, Jack's voice then be gold
@@ultra1000 Tenacious D, they reign 🤘
This was the song my best friend always told me to play at his funeral, and we did.
You're a good friend, Tedric.
😭 RIP He's far away from the mucky muck now.
Rest in piece, Wonderboy.
How about the power....................... To move you?
*Sexy KG breakdown*
Lovely to see the D early in their career
Jacks vocals and enthusiasm brings a tear to my eye. Also VERY pleased to hear Conan let the lyrics ‘grab his scrote’ stay in for the performance 😂
Love how Jack says 'That's right, ME!" and the expression on his face when he says it. Cracks me up! XD
JACK IS ONE OF THE BEST VOCALISTS OF ALL TIME.
ONE of the best?! THE best
He actually is though people just say it cos hes so cool but his live vocals are insanely good
Yep that is the best band in the world.
JB okay guitarist, great singer
KG great guitarist, okay singer
They are made for each other
Jack Black actually sounds great live. Not true of so many artists.
could Tenacious D be any more perfect?!
birdyvee nope
birdyvee ahhh....no
Yes. THEY can, and I'm not sure we'll survive that. #blowingminds
Holy shit, I love KG's solo.
I think wonderboy could be jack black but you didn't hear it from me
Christian Meade Thanks for the spoiler...
I thought there may have been some link to the old 80's sega games but i think youre right.
Christian Meade What are you talking about, they said Wonderboy is JB not Jack Black.
But then....who is young nasty man?
@@BVargas78 It's not. Jack Black clears this up in one of the JablinskiGames episode. It was just a coincidence.
this audio is shockingly well mixed for being live.
The best version of this song. The camera work is excellent. My wife and I sing this song together, except she's nasty girl. We like it a lot. I listen to it every morning when I wake up. Thank you for the upload.
Strong ans powerful song
Rigagoogoo rigagoogoo

+Paul TheSkeptic Pro musicians can usually pick this stuff up quickly, but from what I understand, you get about a week.

Paul TheSkeptic
Same here hahaha
Lmao Kyle left that other guitarist in the damn dust
So classy
One of my favorite D songs! Jimmy Vivino is unrecognizable. He looks so young!
wtf
This song is amazing. An absolute triumph, and a masterpiece of our times. What a pleasure to behold
And in his spare time Wolverine played lead electric guitar in a band, and his greatest day was jamming with the D on Conan! Long Live The D!
Amazing version of this song and damn, those string like notes from the keyboard elevate it even more.
This is like my safe place... I come back every few months for happiness. Tasty jam.
You can tell how good this song is by Conan's band. Those dudes are longtime pros, they've played everything I bet, and to see them get into it (bass and drums especially) is quite awesome. Love the D!
When Kyle says, “that’s me.” Fucking gets me every time lol
when I'm having a bad day, I just watch this video. it always moves me.
That's telekinesis Kyle
3:10 notice how KG approach the guitar player so he can help him to finish the solo, KG said in a interview that part is hard for him because he is playing on acoustic... in this video we can see both guitar players have good chemistry.
Personally this is one of my favorite performances on Conan. Anyone else agree?
Final lyric: "You take the high road... I'll take the low. There. At the CREVACE! Fill it! With your MIGHTY JUICE."
.... totally talking about DPing a broad.
disco desanti I mean they have a couple of songs about fucking girls, one about a threesome so
"its KG with a feather and the french tickler"......lmao
Havin sex with me and KGeeeeeeee, now we're talkin double teeeeeam, SUPREME!
Thought the same thing, actually.
Jack Blacks theatre background helps, plus an amazing natural talent. How he finds the range, from "sniveling" to roaring makes this song amazing.
I love watching the bassist slowly getting in the groove and by the end he's headbanging away, you can tell these guys are absolute pro's and are just having some fun 🤘
I Love how the house band's guitarist is trying to keep up with kyle durring the run but just can't. haha....
***** I agree, it is Kyle's music and he owns it, and good point about prep time, HOWEVER, if you're playing on national TV, you take the time to get it right as you're running a solo along side the original artist. :)
It's still a hell of a scale to try to pull off live, whether or not you've rehearsed. Kyle did it perfect here, but even KG doesn't even try it at some shows.
He has powers comparable to Wonder boy... What powers you ask?...!
I swear it's harder to play licks like that on an acoustic as well.
Kyles guitars are sick
Wow... one of the oddest songs by them, but its so damn catchy
braedon96 yes it is, yes it is
2:50 no words for that feelling of victory !!!!!
Its been so long that i forgot how musically great this song actually is.
Still an amazing performance all these years later
this makes me cry. so beautiful.
I'm glad you said that because I was thinking the same thing.
I remember watching this when it aired in early highschool. I remember thinking... "Isn't that guy an actor or something?". Loved the performance. Loved Conan, too. I ended up picking up the album at a local record shop called the Electric Fetus and had to listen to it in private at home because of all the profanity.

Long live the D!
Lead as Two Kings!
Conan pays true homage at the end of this. Love how he does!
I love this Song!! One of the d's best!!
That drummer looks like a CEO playing on his weekend hobby.
i consider this an iconic moment for tv
They unironically made a masterpiece of a song. So sincere, innocent and pure melodies with such dirty lyrics 😭 You have to be a genius to achieve that. Long live the D! 🦸♀️😈👊🏼🔥
Anyone else still jamming this in 2018? God bless Tenacious D.
2021 for me. I am discovering the whole Tenacious d . I love Holywood jack and his nasty boy. A great damned journey . So funny
Nice ... memories. This was my first introduction to the D. Immediately acquired the album.
I love tenacious d and conan in his prime was the perfect place for artists like them.
I love this performance. At 3:35 he is so in the zone. You can really tell how mucky the muck is.
Cheered me up so much today
amen James Emslie...
everytime he sings the "wonderboy' part CHILLS
“History of Wonderboy and young Nasty Man” fucking goes right through my soul every time and I don’t even know why lol
a masterpiece
What a set of pipes this guy has.
The greatest band on Earth 🤘🏻so much respect
I always loved this song. but the band that they rocked with this night was 🔥🔥. the bass player really enjoyed himself. the drummer too.
Jack is a wonderboy, love the voice and all the movie`s🤩
Wish I could go back the the simple times of listening to Tenacious D with friends and laughing our a***s off. Such a simpler time 😪 they'll never be good times like that again with this new culture around...
I love that keyboard synth
KG could probably smoke 99.9% of guitarists though.
They're the best band ever, period.
TENACIOUS D U WILL ALWAYS BE WONDERBOY TO ME. KYLE & JACK YOU GUYS ROCK
Gotta love the D !!!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
So nostalgic...
Perfect
"with MIND-bullets" always, always, ALWAYS gets me pumped.
Best version ever!
The greatest band in the world!
I think he's one of the best singers on the planet
Boy this takes me right back to high school.
Probably the greatest rock duo in the world.
amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For those who don’t know...
The drummers son is Jay Weinberg (Slipknots drummer)
I was watching this live. brings back memories. Thank you.
Let us all remember the day that Max was a member of the greatest band of all time. The best moment of his life.
The house band backing them up. Legend.
Legendary performance. They were fuxking solid.
Conan is the best late night host. Only he may dance.
I guffaw everytime I hear Wonderboy, this live version brought forth tears...of joy. Lol...Max Weinberg drumming like Dylan is standing in front of him, lol. JB is a killer singer in that style, Kyle is a monster on acoustic...watch the HBO show and some of the bits he plays are ruthless...
This was the performance that made me a fan of the D!
I miss the days of staying up way too late on a school night, watching these performances and enjoying seeing Max fill in for a band. Damn I’m getting old :(

It was great! Loved it!
Remember seeing this when it premiered
The drummer was lovin' it lol. You can see him singing along.
thanks for the asian tour, tenacious d. was there, KL
one of my favorite songs
Tenacious D IS the greatest band in the world
I remember watching this live on TV.
I'm old.
This song makes me so happy.
That little synth keyboard part really fits well with the song.
My mans on drums has that look on his face like "Fuck man this is a Jazz kit, is the snare okay? It's never been hit with anything other than a toothbrush.
this video may have been posted in 2011,, but i remember seeing that on Conan waaaaaay before 2011, and going out the next day to buy their new album..im guessing 2001-2002
2001
wonderboy thompson needs to walk out to this song
He does
He did!!
He does
thanks for the heads up guys, you couldve imagine my grin when i saw him on the 205PPV
AtTheDriveBy I was hoping an MMA fan would say something!
For some odd reson, this song makes me somewhat teary.
