@@LeslieDugger Nah, they're brilliant at mixing both. There's plenty of good musicians making high-quality music, but few good musicians as funny as these guys
They are funnier because they are so musically good. You don't notice how well they play but you do definitely laugh more. There's a riff Jermaine plays in the song Jenny. I can't imagine how he can do it and sing and do the facial thing at the same time.
Actually the dislikes are a metaphor for how sometimes people are unhappy with good things in life...oh sorry they were actually seagulls without thumbs.
Except it's not utter nonsense, it's a satiric meta-criticism on the hyperbolic and often baseless interpretations of art and music. This song pretends to be deep, which is then subverted by its apparent shallowness, thus adding even more depth than originally alluded.
It’s scary how good this song is, and it’s a sin that it hasn’t been put on an album, it’s also tragic how they don’t have like Netflix special or anything
My favorite of their newish songs, because Bret’s voice is beautiful and funny at the same time, Jemaine’s ridiculous funny commentary, and that piano solo ending. I hope they will someday record a studio version soon.
This song and the bus driver song are stuck in my head. Instead of a internal dialogue all I can hear is "I'm a Seagull yea yea yea, I'm a Seagull." Lol
I really hope that they put this song on an album or something. I've loved it from the moment I heard it last summer, and I've been waiting anxiously for them to release it ever since.
They just have to record this in good Quality. Live or not i don't care but this has to happen! It would be a historic tragedy if not. and "Hey Dad" as well.
if I could afford it I'd have gone to every show on the tour. Put these new songs and previously unrecorded songs on itunes already, even live versions since you don't like being in the studio, please!
Nabre Labre the live versions are always better than the studio versions anyway. Saw them in York on Saturday - it's one of the best things i've ever seen.
I usually dont like comedy songs with long speaking parts, but making fun of literary analysis will always take precedent over all of my convictions and preferences.
What did you try to hit them with?. Being seagulls you should have used something like a shotgun but I'm guessing you used a 22 single shot so you were obviously going to miss one of them at least!.
in my heart its pouring rain and eye am sinking. just a few feet below the surface eye can still make out your wavy face if eye could just reach you maybe eye could leave this place. all eye could hear was the roaring of the sea and the waves.
It seems some actual seagulls watched this video but their clumsy wings cannot accurately push the "like" button. This explains the twenty six "thumbs down" votes.
I love Flight of the Conchords... the third most famous cyber-punk-country comedy duo in the whole wide south island of New Zealand... The are second to none, other than the bango armless bob and Sherly, the sheep. By the way, I came here to comment I saw a guy singing this song to a girl (Circular Quay, Sydney, Australia) without Jermaine's commentary finishing the song with "I'm not a literally a piano playing seagull who also sings... I do want my freedom, even though I am not a piano playing seagull... lala laaaa. lala la..." My wife turns around and said "is he dumping this girl with such a lame song?"
SHame the live at London recording is as good a version as this. They cut it down and sped it up. It sounded rushed, too much adrenaline or something...
David von Doom ?... or Neil Diamond 's Jonathan Livingston Seagull ...? All brilliant and just go to prove that we all love seagulls Lalalalala lalalalalalalalalalaleeee ark ark etc x
heyyyyyynow yeah this is totally the same as experiencing the atmosphere of a live performance. I've attended 2 of their shows because of seeing uploads first.
?...I think Andrew must be joking, or didn't listen to the entire song maybe? Could be that simple.. "not quite sure what he means here",... "I have to re-evaluate, those aren't metaphors, is literally a seagull" ..." that likes to sometimes shit on people"
I know, right? They used to write such funny songs. And now it's these heavily convoluted metaphors and allegories about relationships. Stopped listening after a few minutes.
![Feel Inside (And Stuff Like That) - Flight Of The Conchords (Red Nose Day 2012) [Lyrics]](/img/1.gif)
It's easy to forget just how good they are as musicians with all the comedy.
finsarg I sort of wish they’d release 1 serious album
@@LeslieDugger Nah, they're brilliant at mixing both. There's plenty of good musicians making high-quality music, but few good musicians as funny as these guys
Yeah i mean that pianist was playing with wings for hands and he was still amazing
They are funnier because they are so musically good. You don't notice how well they play but you do definitely laugh more. There's a riff Jermaine plays in the song Jenny. I can't imagine how he can do it and sing and do the facial thing at the same time.
51 seagulls missed the LIKE button, obviously due to their damn feathered wings.
Actually the dislikes are a metaphor for how sometimes people are unhappy with good things in life...oh sorry they were actually seagulls without thumbs.
I love how they are both amazingly talented and spend their time creating utter nonsense
Except it's not utter nonsense, it's a satiric meta-criticism on the hyperbolic and often baseless interpretations of art and music. This song pretends to be deep, which is then subverted by its apparent shallowness, thus adding even more depth than originally alluded.
@@tykejack so, you two agree?
@@tykejack Im not sure what you are trying to say
@@tykejack Dude, it's just comedy, it doesn't have to have a meaning lol
@@spoton6010 except it does. Parody and satire both have meaning by definition and that's what this song is.
It’s scary how good this song is, and it’s a sin that it hasn’t been put on an album, it’s also tragic how they don’t have like Netflix special or anything
Was thinking the exact same
@@BBBri57 their special is on HBO
@S0und Syndr0me Grow up snowflake
@@dare6451 that feeling when you actually think Amy Schumer is edgy and funny.
Too good for Netflix
the fact these guys can keep strait faces in all of their performances is amazing.
I agree but the interviews with the kids for "fell inside" never had a straight face on either its great
They have a secret technique that makes it easy:
They're both psychotic.
That moment he began to play the piano like he really had wings! I died laughing! I swear they're my absolute favorites💕💕💕💕💕💕💕😅😅😅😅😅
piano solo
Mine too :)

My earworm is Bowie’s in space
Woo a lady. 🤣🤣🤣
i have had this stuck in my head for 4 days after seeing them play....AHH AHH
Incredible evolution throughout this song, absolutely hilarious.
Beyond genius.
Maybe he's just wingin' it
I really hope that they put this song on an album or something. I've loved it from the moment I heard it last summer, and I've been waiting anxiously for them to release it ever since.
They have now!
Their musicianship is beautiful.
Best piano solo EVER
These guys are so amazing, I want to see them live again!!!
They need to make a seagull documentary.
They just have to record this in good Quality. Live or not i don't care but this has to happen! It would be a historic tragedy if not. and "Hey Dad" as well.
Some of the UK tour is being recorded for a HBO special :D
Beautiful piano
they are incredible.
In the show I saw they changed it to "La la la la la la literally a seagull"
I love how you can hear individuals in the audience guffawing and losing it sometimes.
I love how they polished this up on the new special
Flight of the Seagulls
Love these guys! Their live performances are my favorite by far.
I love these guys.
i never appreciated how good bret's voice is
if I could afford it I'd have gone to every show on the tour. Put these new songs and previously unrecorded songs on itunes already, even live versions since you don't like being in the studio, please!

Thanks for filming/uploading these! FOTC really need to release some more live show material.
I usually dont like comedy songs with long speaking parts, but making fun of literary analysis will always take precedent over all of my convictions and preferences.
Same
This remind me of the Seagulls song from Bad lip reading channel
come to the fakin uk!
LochVids they finally are!!!
@@jerrymalerry8452 did i miss them!
they are just such good musicians and songwriters besides being funny, it's amazing!
This and "Fuck on the Ceiling" are the best songs ever written.
Thanks for the ad 3/4 of the way through.
Thanks, I didn't know that ads were being shown. I've just disabled that!
Missed u guys!
What did you try to hit them with?. Being seagulls you should have used something like a shotgun but I'm guessing you used a 22 single shot so you were obviously going to miss one of them at least!.
Best of the Isles I've heard
Genuinely entertaining
More - just more!
That guy is in Legion and he's making the show, so talented.
Alas Exile I LOVE LEGION!! jemaine is incredible in it!
Alas Exile "Whats the word? Dishes?" so funny.
Genius.
Absolutely genius.
The subtitles are hilarious 😂
They are so good!
The seagull noises ! Lol !
I saw Flock of Seagulls in Dallas in the 80's at Reunion Arena.
Bet they couldn't believe their luck going all around the world making thousands of people do seagul noises all together in stadiums.
I know how he feels, I'm also a seagull.
in my heart its pouring rain and eye am sinking. just a few feet below the surface eye can still make out your wavy face if eye could just reach you maybe eye could leave this place. all eye could hear was the roaring of the sea and the waves.
Damn Brett has a good singing voice
underrated song and for my funeral song
It seems some actual seagulls watched this video but their clumsy wings cannot accurately push the "like" button. This explains the twenty six "thumbs down" votes.
This doesn't "explain" it. It defies this.
It's now 57. Dear God bless the haters and may they see the error of their ways
Thanks for sharing this video beautiful new friend
Meanwhile in 2020:
Laa la Lal la la laa Laa la Lal la la laa LAA LA LAL LA LAA! KAAR KAR!
My God but they're good....
What do you call a bird that flies over the bay?
A bay-gull
The Live London 2018 has to have this!
It did!
Release this, please
Does anyone know another song that has almost the exact same piano melody as this song? Its been driving me nuts and I can't place it.
Oh god it’s gonna drive me crazy too it’s on the tip of my tongue
It always reminds me of "Into the Mystic" by Van Morrison
Reminds me of some Harry Nilsson stuff and Jim Croce
"Im tired of this place i need to get away" 🙏😅
I love Flight of the Conchords... the third most famous cyber-punk-country comedy duo in the whole wide south island of New Zealand... The are second to none, other than the bango armless bob and Sherly, the sheep.

My wife turns around and said "is he dumping this girl with such a lame song?"
As of December 2018, 47 people hate keyboard playing seagulls
The number of right-thinking seagull-abhoring folk has risen substantially and I blame Trump
Now I know what a Seagull is.
Not to be confused with a Conchord.
I love tomy New Zealand neighbours
Jimmy Webb would be proud
Sea gulls technically should be call Gulls. They don’t live or nest at sea....
Of course they live near the sea. I've only seen 2 oceans in my life and there were seagulls at both...
I call that piece alarm
1:04 laugh sounds like family guy seagull
I thought my favorite seagull song was from the band Bad Company. This topped it lol.
Pete seegull
His name is Seagull. Steven Seagull.
Mc Kra ~ close rellie of Jonathan Livingston S..... x
so it was steve per chance??
I love how much fun they're having playing this song! It's "scary" how much I hate them. Red flags.
52 unloved seagulls in 2919
5 more added their disgust and affront at this offensive and reprehensible material
Eagle screach!
Jason seagull
Funny!
Does anyone have a video link for 'Deana and Ian'?
I think you mean....F*** On The Ceiling (FoTC)?
SHame the live at London recording is as good a version as this. They cut it down and sped it up. It sounded rushed, too much adrenaline or something...
Figwit x
What's the legality of throwing away drugs dad
Stfu ha I love it
Albatross!
Wait if he's an actual bird, then why does he say "like" a bird, at 1:50 ?
Walter5850 bruh
I thought that as well minor inconsistency but all is forgiven
No, he is actually a bird....it’s simply a ‘tip of the hat’ to his ilk, his brethren...the other birds 🐦 It’s an inclusive song.
Well... a literal bird is the most "like" a bird that you can get. So it's highly accurate. 😊
Search for this better version - "seagull 06.23.16"
Well it was cheap when I bought it 4 years ago. Lots of missing previous tenants. Remember champion st Joe? Kevin? Cameron's government officials!
seagulls do swim though
I do know the males do Breast stroke.
Flight of the Conchords definitively proves the earth is flat!
Yeah but nah
lol Is this supposed to be a parody of Anne Murray's Snowbird?
David von Doom ?... or Neil Diamond 's Jonathan Livingston Seagull ...? All brilliant and just go to prove that we all love seagulls Lalalalala lalalalalalalalalalaleeee ark ark etc x

The clear blouse behaviorally instruct because dinosaur posteriorly sip up a like whip. tawdry, tall wound
only really intelligent people get this kind of humor i've found
Now I don't have to go to their concert! Effectively depriving them of what they need to sustain a music career! Thanks for the upload.
heyyyyyynow yeah this is totally the same as experiencing the atmosphere of a live performance. I've attended 2 of their shows because of seeing uploads first.
who says there is no hope for a badly arranged and written song ,well here it is ,very funny due, never heard of them before, i have now
how is it badly arranged or written?
...have you been living under a rock 😂 Check out their acting skills They both have credits x
meh
I hate pretentiously metaphoric songs like this one. It's the musical equivalent of Last Year at Marienbad. Impenetrable nonsense.
Andrew James This has gotta be a joke, right?
I'm pretty sure he doesn't get jokes. Seems implicit in his comment itself.
?...I think Andrew must be joking, or didn't listen to the entire song maybe? Could be that simple.. "not quite sure what he means here",... "I have to re-evaluate, those aren't metaphors, is literally a seagull" ..." that likes to sometimes shit on people"
I know, right? They used to write such funny songs. And now it's these heavily convoluted metaphors and allegories about relationships. Stopped listening after a few minutes.
Øystein lol, listen maybe to the end, and you'll realize that's exactly what they are making fun of, hang in there buddy
guess they're not that funny anymore
