It is a movie. The Pick of Destiny. It’s the origin story of Tenacious D. Great cast. A lot of stars. Fun fact: The kid in this part is the older brother on The Goldbergs.
Fun fact: Dio is Italian for God. So when the father says “You better pray to God” JB actually does just that, prays to the God of Rock, Ronnie James Dio.
Actually even funnier fact.. Dio comes from the Greek word Dias .. the Greek word (the original one) for Zeus (Dio, Deus etc all derive from Dias - Zeus)
@@Stefan- That is true. Personally I was just stating where the name "Dio" originaly comes from (as are the words Deus, Dias etc that are used today in Latin). The fact that names have a specific origin (and its true that most Latin words derive from ancient Greek words) doesnt mean that thats the reason people choose them today :)
Fun bit of trivia for this one. When Dio came in to record his part, he brought his own mic. The guy running the studio said "That won't be necessary, we have state of the art equipment here." So Dio did one take with the studio mic, and the power of his voice shattered the membrane in it and destroyed it. He said "This always happens, that's why I bring my own." Then he recorded a second take with his own mic and that's what's in the movie.
Rocky Horror Picture Show! A definite must-watch. It’s kind of a satire of old-school black & white horror movie tropes, wrapped up in a “rock n roll musical” that can only be described as “manic”. LMFAO Meatloaf is in it, and his role is integral to the story, though he’s not really a main character. I’d imagine the movie as a whole would be a bit on the strange side for Brad, NGL. But I bet Lex would 100% love it. Even if you only ever watch it the once though, I can’t stress it’s cultural impact enough.
@@reggaelion86, I’m a drag queen. It’s my stage name, and yes it’s a dick joke. I’m thinking a clueless hippie who’s smoked away their last brain cell. lol
But DO NOT just watch the video. You must find someone who's been to Rocky Horror before and have them take you to a midnight theater showing. Seriously, do not just rent the video. There's no other movie where it is more important to see it in a theater.
I've got to say that it's a pleasure watching you get excited and commenting on recognizing Dio and Meatloaf's singing. You've come a long way and it's been an absolute joy to watch.
I got to see this when it premiered in theaters. Once the movie ended I said loudly "I'm sooo glad I got high for this" to which the crowd around me.busted out laughing. It was a great musical experience
Singing this song with the homies in the bus on the way to football tournaments was the shit back in High School lol. Another good one is "Classico" from the same movie
Well, there were more collaborations with other greats, like when Jack was in the video game "Brütal Legend", with the likes of Ozzy, Lemmy, Halford, Lita Ford, and Tim Curry.
Agree, and what makes Master Exploder so hilarious is that it's impossible to sing in real life (when they do it 'live' they always lip sync it). Just try to sing along the opening howl! It goes on for like 45 seconds!! Impossible to sing...
@@chrisknoll1910 Here's the recording session where JB hits the high notes pretty damn well: ruclips.net/video/7HdVx80uBUI/видео.html They also apparently did it live for the first time ever few years ago: ruclips.net/video/5-2hP2RHSpc/видео.html In his prime he could prolly sing it decently similarly, he probably just decided not to do it because he would fuck-up his vocal chords long-term (since if he did it in one concert, everyone would want him to do it every time), but now when he's older he stopped giving a fuck as much.
@@TheCabIe OK, maybe I'm not clear: I'm not saying he didn't hit the notes, or he didn't record hsi voice. I'm saying that it was 'electronic magic' that let him hit that initial note, to when he finally hits the high scream after about 64 notes into the song. Try to sing along to that, you'll realize, it's not possible. Why do you think they use a recording of this song whenever they perform it live?
The Pick of Destiny is absolutely hilarious throughout, also stars Dave Grohl from Foo Fighters. Genius musically and plays on all the rock n roll tropes tastefully. Would love to see you react to it if you start doing movies.
Brad you definitely need to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It's definitely a one of a kind movie and the music in it is actually good. You guys should react to The Time Warp from it for sure before seeing the movie.
Meat Loaf played the dad in the movie. R.I.P. Meat Loaf and RJD. by the way. the first 10 minutes of the movie "Pick Of Destiny" is sort of a homage to rock opera movies like Tommy and Pink Floyd The Wall; where the whole movie is all music and singing.
My favourite thing about this song is that each part - Jack Black's, Meat Loaf's and Dio's - were all made to suit each one's established style of music. As always, very cool and enjoyable reaction :)
Such a great little song, and not only does it have Jack Black and meatloaf but Ronnie James Dio in it as well. That's like a magic Trio that should open a portal into time travel or something.
In a D&D campaign, i rolled a Bard of Metal or as they where called "Iron Wailers" His Name was Ronnie Osborn, born in a familly of Clerics, but he was not into this, no, he was and artist and wanted to be a Rock star. So one day Wotan (wich is the alternative name of Odin, we play in the Midgard setting) came to him and told him to go and Find the Pick of Destiny. SO With Hunger in his Heart he left his family and their clutch on this oppresed neighborehood to go to the Free city of Zobeck. Where he would find companions and form the World's most Awesome party. Fallen Aasimar, Lore Bard 6/ Fiend Warlock 3 with Pact of the Chain, his Imp familliar was called Ozzy and had a thing about eating Bats heads as snacks...
Tenacious D is an opera. In a musical people only break into song once in a while. In opera every line of the script is sung, not spoken. Check out the movie
In the Rocky Horror Picture Show, Meat Loaf only appears in it briefly and sings the song, Hot Patootie. This, I believe was before he did the Bat Out Of Hell album.
Super high-five to your mum, Lex for loving Rocky Horror Picture Show! Need to appreciate Jack Black's music talent though, he is amazing, tends to be a bit covered up by his comical talent. Got to check out Dave Grohl as the devil in the Pick of destiny, priceless! Quite a few occult references too in that movie.
It is a movie. The Pick of Destiny. It’s the origin story of Tenacious D. Great cast. A lot of stars.
Fun fact: The kid in this part is the older brother on The Goldbergs.
I see it now.
He was also young Nacho Libre
Holy crap, big tasty!!
It's not _the_ origin story. It's one of probably 59 origin stories. All similar, but not necessarily same-same. :)
Another fun fact... The guy playing dad is no other than Meat Loaf.. May he RIP
Fun fact: Dio is Italian for God. So when the father says “You better pray to God” JB actually does just that, prays to the God of Rock, Ronnie James Dio.
That makes "now go my son and rooooooooock" a holy benediction.
Actually even funnier fact.. Dio comes from the Greek word Dias .. the Greek word (the original one) for Zeus (Dio, Deus etc all derive from Dias - Zeus)
Dio was a devout Christian, for those who don't know.
The name Dio wasnt a reference to god but actually taken from a mafia member named Johnny Dio.
@@Stefan- That is true. Personally I was just stating where the name "Dio" originaly comes from (as are the words Deus, Dias etc that are used today in Latin). The fact that names have a specific origin (and its true that most Latin words derive from ancient Greek words) doesnt mean that thats the reason people choose them today :)

wow dio was the true master exploder all this while
Tenacious D is actually very talented, they are good vocalists and musicians and really pull off the comedy with their abilities.
Man I`m so glad you did the video and not just the lyrics for this one.
Well thankfully the video has the lyrics haha
You guys are the best! This was actually the opening song to their movie Tenacious D & The Pick of Destiny! You should check it out!
Jack and Kyle joke around, but they're no joke. Extremely talented musicians, with a pretty awesome catalog of songs!
For sure. I'd love them to make a serious album some time, but I feel it wouldn't be natural since that's just their personalities.
Rocky Horror Picture Show! A definite must-watch. It’s kind of a satire of old-school black & white horror movie tropes, wrapped up in a “rock n roll musical” that can only be described as “manic”. LMFAO

Correction: I’d say it’s *homage rather than satire, on second thought.
“Mourning Woodward” should’ve been a character in RHPS. I’m thinking a sad nerd with references to a huge crank LMFAO

@@ublej Absolutely agree. A theatrical showing is a must. Unless you already love it, watching at home is a real let down.
I've got to say that it's a pleasure watching you get excited and commenting on recognizing Dio and Meatloaf's singing.
You've come a long way and it's been an absolute joy to watch.
This is literally the opening to a movie; Tenacious D and the pick of Destiny. Check it out
That's because it IS a movie Lex! The Pick of Destiny it's hilarious and I highly recommend it.😊
My 2 favorite Tenecuous D songs are Beelzeboss and Master Exploder. Both are a must watch
When Dio recorded his part for the song he actually broke their mics, so he used his own personal mic that he brought with him just in case.
I got to see this when it premiered in theaters. Once the movie ended I said loudly "I'm sooo glad I got high for this" to which the crowd around me.busted out laughing. It was a great musical experience
"..felt like we were getting into a movie.." LOL it's literally the opening scene of the movie The Pick of Destiny.

Rocky Horror is so friggin iconic! Even if you don’t like musicals, you have to experience that film at least once in your life. 🙏
Rocky Horror has AMAZING music in it. You should do a reaction.
RIP RJD. You were absolutely amazing.
That bit where he just randomly shouts ‘Twas I who fucked the Dragon’ absolutely creases me up 😂
First time Ive seen Brad actually excited about a song or video. 😂
Now you have to watch Beelzeboss!
I know Lex said she'd like to see the three of them get back together and do something again... that would be one hell of a magic trick
Well, there were more collaborations with other greats, like when Jack was in the video game "Brütal Legend", with the likes of Ozzy, Lemmy, Halford, Lita Ford, and Tim Curry.
@@calebclunie4001 He means magic trick as in Dio and Meatloaf are dead
Rocky Horror is an amazing movie, definitely watch it!!
Unfortunately Meatloaf doesn't have a huge part in Rocky Horror but he's really good in it.
I didn't realize until after he passed away that he is Scott Ian's father in law.
The cameos in this movie are crazy. Meatloaf, Dio, Vanilla Ice, Ben Stiller. This movie has the best star power just in cameos.
Fun fact: Ronnie James Dio there is 64 years old… no more words needed…
They didn't have to make this hilarious song also a legitimate rock banger, but they did it for us
Definitely check out "Master Exploder" from this same movie. Its when they first find the pick of destiny. Hilarious video and the song rocks hard!
Agree, and what makes Master Exploder so hilarious is that it's impossible to sing in real life (when they do it 'live' they always lip sync it). Just try to sing along the opening howl! It goes on for like 45 seconds!! Impossible to sing...
@@chrisknoll1910 except Jack Black actually did that scream
@@leonrussell9607 Do you have evidence of that? Because I doubt it was done in one take.

Brad you fucking won metal points with your input here. I wouldn’t even thought it possible.
"I feel like we were getting into a movie"
You were. This video is the start of the movie.
I love your guys reactions. The fact you knew it was meatloaf was even better. Love that you guys are very open to metal.
The fact you said," If Meatloaf is fully involved I'll watch it." Instantly made me love yall. Lol
Meat Loaf's appearance in Rocky Horror predates Bat Out of Hell. The music is amazing.
My favourite thing about this song is that each part - Jack Black's, Meat Loaf's and Dio's - were all made to suit each one's established style of music. As always, very cool and enjoyable reaction :)
"tenacious d classico" Is next in line, pick up just where Kickapoo ends, but just watch the whole movie/Musical, it`s 15 songs total.
One more must watch video from Tenacious D…. “Master Exploder”.
Such a great little song, and not only does it have Jack Black and meatloaf but Ronnie James Dio in it as well. That's like a magic Trio that should open a portal into time travel or something.
Literally the beginning of the movie!
Brad said "Im not a musical person" This video is a musical!!!!!!!
This should definitely be your first movie reaction!!
it's the actual beginning of the movie the Pick Of Destiny... a must watch film.
Beezleboss is a must. Its the last song of the movie
Her smile is amazing...
Meatloaf and Dio in this song, so good. RIP.
YYYEEESSS!!!It's the opening scene to Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny. Also check out School of Rock!!!
It's literally the opening scene for Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny.

Where he would find companions and form the World's most Awesome party.
Fallen Aasimar, Lore Bard 6/ Fiend Warlock 3 with Pact of the Chain, his Imp familliar was called Ozzy and had a thing about eating Bats heads as snacks...
Love me some jack black. Feels like he's playing life like the game that it is.
It’s rumored that dio came in and layed down that track in his first take like a boss
Tenacious D is an opera. In a musical people only break into song once in a while. In opera every line of the script is sung, not spoken. Check out the movie
Floating down the Strawberry River 😂😂
For the 55th time it is a movie! Tenacious D and The Pick of Destiny
Not just funny but actually badass. Imagine having a hit song with Meatloaf and Ronnie James Dio.....
RIP Dio and RIP Meatloaf
Hollywood wasn’t specific enough🤣🤣didn’t know there were so many
Best duo of all time
"it felt like it was a movie."
It's literally a movie!! lol. It's called The Pick of Destiny and it's the "origin story" of Tenacious D.
Love that fucking TOOL shirt. My favorite band since 1993
dave grohl plays the devil at the end ,,,, yes its as epic as it sounds
That's meatloaf playing the dad
Well unfortunately Meatloaf is only in Rocky Horror a little bit.. but it's still worth checking out.
Thank goodness you finally saw it.
Most underrated band of all time
Ohhh…. Y’all should definitely do movie reactions and Start with this movie please 🍿
Classico is the continuation of Kickapoo where JB found his rock counterpart..🤘🤘🤘
Definitely a movie to see if you get the movie reactions going
I'm convinced Jack Black was dropped on his head as a child... Probably more than once. :)
That is the opening scene of the movie The Pick Of Destiny.
Kickapoo is a Tribe, I'm 1/8th Kickapoo and 3/8th's Potawatomi Indian, I never knew about this song, crazy'''.
R.I.P. Meatloaf and DIO
In the Rocky Horror Picture Show, Meat Loaf only appears in it briefly and sings the song, Hot Patootie. This, I believe was before he did the Bat Out Of Hell album.
Yes, it is a movie. It would make a great reaction.
Very underrated movie!!
The kid is Barry "Big Tasty" Goldberg. LOL (Troy Gentile)
This movie is honestly a masterpiece.
Gotta love Meatloaf!!!!
I love how meatloaf and Dave Grohl is in this movie
"almost like a movie" lol
"It was almost like a movie"
It is... in fact... a movie. And, Y'all should watch it!!!
MEAT LOAF (R.I.P. )-RONNIE JAMES DIO (R.I.P:)-JACK BLACK.....best Trio ever !...RHPS is KULT!
One of the best movies ever made
Rocky Horror is a must!! Also the drummer for Tenacious D is Dave Grohl who is also in the movie.
@Brad & Lex , the cute kid these days can be seen playing the role of Barry in The Goldbergs .
Meatloaf is indeed in Rocky Horror….the entire movie is fucking tremendous
The greatest song ever written tribute is the Best
Forgot to add: Check out "Rize of the Fenix" by Tenacious D, an absolute banger of a song!! (And the video is hilarious of course!)
The best smile on youtube
It IS like the intro to a movie....
Super high-five to your mum, Lex for loving Rocky Horror Picture Show! Need to appreciate Jack Black's music talent though, he is amazing, tends to be a bit covered up by his comical talent. Got to check out Dave Grohl as the devil in the Pick of destiny, priceless! Quite a few occult references too in that movie.
You were getting into a movie😂
Loved this reaction
