What makes Stephen so great is how he's a musician first and a comedian second. Many comedians who've implemented instruments that I've seen don't really care about the music, they just want to get that punchline out after the same two or three chords. Stephen grew past that.
Well that's what really smart and talented people do. But at least he's also got the comedian part down pat, unlike say, Tim Minchin who is way too tame
It kinda pisses me off that some people are so talented. This guy is an amazing songwriter, a fantastic vocalist, and can write some of the funniest stuff I've ever heard. I'd kill for just one of those talents.
Love the growth he's shown in his career. He's definitely a musician who happens to be funny, not a "comedy musician." His last two records are beautiful if you don't pay attention to the glorious filth he sings (and makes Courtney sing!).
It truly is staggering that this beautiful harmony occurs, and then like 30 seconds later, same song, same singers, utter the phrase "I'd rather eat a hobo's asshole." lol
This song came up on my Apple Music rotation. I was expecting a beautiful indie song. The “brown rice” line got my attention and as soon as “and fuckin’ tofu” and “I’d blow a goat for some bacon right now” I instantly became a fan. I got a beautiful song and a new song to listen to whenever I fuck up that Whopper w/cheese
I love watching these new songs with Courtney in person, because every time Stephen says one of his vulgur lines you can just see Courtney trying to keep a straight face and looking like "Oh god who convinced me to sing these songs with this weird ass dude", it's awesome lol. Saw his act live, it was great! Keep it up Stephen! You're clever, hilarious, and an amazing musician.
while expecting pure comedy, I started out no liking this song, but after listening more and more as part of his show, I caught the jokes and I now believe it's his most beautiful song. the singing and harmonies bring me to tears at times!
I saw him on the Lion tour at the Wilbur in Boston. Truly a special night. My father came with me and he had never heard Crazy Peanuts, which they encored with. He is a truly funny comedian and a brilliant songwriter.
I gotta say he is funny as hell but the music sounds so good i feel like he could take it seriously and release an album even if it will be hard to get use to. for some reason i feel like he has lot on his mind i dont know i just feel it through his music (obviously not the words lol)
This is the first time I've seen her from thing long ago. She looks completely different than the special they did, still beautiful, but very different.
the one comedian that i wish had a professional music career😂💯 jesus its like mixing bob dylan and jason Mraz in a person with the mind of Dane Cook.. lmao genius but so random
in life my mom would eat tofu and I being kind of a smart ass would say ths to my mother. " no mom don't do it don't eat the blob it's dangerous!!" she of course in her own way told me to shut the fuck up. " I love you too mah I'm gonna go smoke weed now." was the response I gave back to her by the way Mike Tyson, Sylvester, Elmer Fudd, and Daffy Duck have something in common with each other a speech impeddiment.
@@SaturnineXTS you should definitely listen to Bo Burnham. Despite what I said in my original comment, Bo Burnham is definitely 100 percent worth a watch.
I've been wishing for a main stream song from him for forever. I'd love for him to do a serious version of Tennessee. That melody is one of the greatest country tunes I've ever heard.
Courtney is the perfect backup for Stephen. She and her voice are both beautiful.
Yeah that’s definitely true but it really sent him away from the rock style comedy that he was so great at.
The funniest part of this whole song is that in terms of structure it's beautiful.
Indeed! My appreciation for his talent is half his sense of humor and half his skill for musical composition.
I'd like to hear you write anything like that in your life.
You are over 33 years old in an "argument" with a 22 year old.... Re-read your comments and tell me again about your superiority.
It is spelt bastard and I didn't read an exact age in that reply so I'm technically not wrong.
Whatever.
tofurkey tofuckyourself may be the best line in any comedy song

Edward Mcintire I always thought he said “hobo’s asshole”

Hahahahahha

Bunny Rabbit so much truth here. Take away the comedic lyrics and you've got some damn fine music.
this is literally just copy pasted from an interview and put into third person
Bo burnham is the same but add thinking
@@austinkreider4916 Bo is alright, but not nearly on Stephen's level musically OR comedically

This is surely the best performance I ever heard of this song!
Sometimes i wish he would just release an instrumental album. His guitar is just so amazing to listen to.
I was touched to hear the beautiful tune with a meaningful lyrics sung by Stephen Lynch.thanks a lot.
Saw lynch last week in concert. He is still incredible, and plays a nice combo of new and old stuff

The thing is, they could actually fuckin sing you know....
which just makes it a masterpiece.
Her voice 😍😍😍😍😍
I can't get enough of the part starting at 3:06
Courtney sounds amazing.
It’s So good

Seriously amazing transition. Stephen and Courtney are super talented.
I saw these guys live in Leeds. They're so awesome!

Perfect harmony!
Someone who doesn't speak english might love this song for the beauty of it lmao
Alaina Byrne true😂 if you don't listen to the lyrics it is a nice heartfelt song😂😂😂
and if someone knows English this song is not only beatufiul, but also true
2:42 - Burger King needs to hire him to sing about the Impossible Whopper with Cheese.
I just drove past a Burger King while listening to this 🤣

One of the funniest songwriters ever on this earth. Pure GENIUS
Paul Wooten look up country group Rebel Son
It might be comedy, but still one of the best American country songs produced :P

LOVE this guy!!! I'm still laughing out loud!!! Keep them songs coming!!!💖💖💖💖
as a vegetarian, this is now officially my theme song...
You can still be a vegetarian and fantasize about meat. This song would be perfect or that
City and Colour should collab with Stephen Lynch and make the funniest, most depression songs ever.
Wonderful song
I gotta say he is funny as hell but the music sounds so good i feel like he could take it seriously and release an album even if it will be hard to get use to. for some reason i feel like he has lot on his mind i dont know i just feel it through his music (obviously not the words lol)
Lynch is hilarious!
Well, he does consider himself a musician first and foremost.
+James Fang that's what he was going to be originally when he realized people like his joke better.
+James Fang He considers himself a musician first and a comedian second.
Courtney has an amazing voice
He's so goddamn talented.
His songs are legit amazing.
The lyrics describe how I felt the first time, I decided to go vegan. Great Song.
For all the links in the description, you would figure they'd have a spot for the other musicians singing & playing in this video.
Stephen never disappoints.
This song cracks on me and I think it's hilarious
Just got good ol pancreatitis, I'll be playing this every day now lol
Courtney sits in the same position every time she performs
Helps her keep beat look at her foot she taps in in the air to keep time with the song.
Sorry i know its 2 yrs
I am a vegan and I absolutely love this song ... I've shared it with my vegan friends - allan wood
You don't have to sign your name at the end of your comment, by the way

so is she.....damn she is beautiful
This is the first time I've seen her from thing long ago. She looks completely different than the special they did, still beautiful, but very different.
This is my favorite song these days, no joke
The I rather eat a Hobo's asshole is a lot funnier than the rest of the song, if you've seen the Hello Kalamazoo Show.
I'm a vegan and I find this hilarious. And no, I wouldn't blow a goat for some bacon right now.
how bout now?
I would blow on hot bacon for some curried goat right now!
Awesome quality, awesome song, more of him please :P
I one day hope to make a yard trimmin's resturaunte' and play this on the jukebox.
Anyone else notice the Chael Sonnen resemblance?
Hmm.. I've never seen them in the same place ...
Truuuuth
I knew it, Lynch is juicing!!
I see Jeff Hornacek more
Make sure you hear him in person, if you get the opportunity! He is brilliantly funny and a very good musician.
Her name is Courtney Jaye.
Lovely singer. She's on tour with him at the moment. I'm addicted to her song 'box of wine'
Would highly recommend
Courtneyjaye
Luv this song!
Cooking bacon when this started playing...
Brilliant!
Thank God he made Stephen Lynch because i always wondered what a better looking Ryan Reynolds would be like as a comedian
He's already said he's the son of Beelz....
Funny as hell sorry but it also sound beautiful I didnt think it would be such a pretty sounding song plus that girl isn't hard 2 look at ;)
You mean older? He's still in good shape, damn.
Still the best artists hands down still.
What do I search for to find the full video on Sirius?
It's so painfull to see him restrain himself! ... just let him be funny as hell, as hell !!! ;))
Does anyone know the mandolin guys name? Aka "chuckles"?
Courtney Jaye angelic and comical
Love him!!
the one comedian that i wish had a professional music career😂💯 jesus its like mixing bob dylan and jason Mraz in a person with the mind of Dane Cook.. lmao genius but so random
wow so this is what they do with their free time. good stuff.

so much better music than bo burnham. although I appreciate what bo burnham is trying to do, Steven Lynch has much better music.
Awesom Sharp in my opinion Bo is funnier but Stephen is a better musician
@@tdwreck2020 this was a while ago, but after listening to more of bo's songs, I 100 percent agree with your statement.
Totally agree mate i like bo but he isnt even in the same league
@@-hasamastersdegreeinwumbol8565 don't know bo, but at the very least I can say that Stephen is much funnier than Tim Minchin
@@SaturnineXTS you should definitely listen to Bo Burnham. Despite what I said in my original comment, Bo Burnham is definitely 100 percent worth a watch.
So underrated comedian, its a crime! Fuck any other stand up comedian
During his UK tour I met with Stephen Lynch and interviewed him after his show in Leeds. Please check the video on my TH-cam page and drop a comment.
BWAHAHAHAHA
Gotta love Hobo Chuck.
I lost it at 1:27 to 1:33
Imagine if this fucker made a serious album 😂 “and the Grammy goes...”
I've been wishing for a main stream song from him for forever. I'd love for him to do a serious version of Tennessee. That melody is one of the greatest country tunes I've ever heard.
Courtney still plays offended. After singing this 100 times.
This brilliant MF need a crazy colaboration, like, S.Lynch ft. Eminem, that would blow him the fuck up where he belongs.
Did they play a damn laugh track at a studio ha I can't see a group that large fitting in there
It's reminiscent of Damien Rice
Anyone know her name?
Courtney Jaye
The perfect song for my cousin Fiona
The fact this video is 4 minutes 20 seconds long only makes it better
I'm a vegan and I fuckin' lol'd xDDDD
i loled
It’s probably been said before... BUT WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME
The whole album is this good. It’s beautiful, but so fucked up.
Couldnt understand end of song over her howling....love him!
Man.no Magic Johnson alternate ending?
I disagree with u Ashleysummer i think he's still great :D
Who is the girl singing with him?
It tickles me that he would blow an animal that isn't even responsible for bacon
HOBO CHUCK!!!!!!!!!!
Hobo-man ! Superhero...
...every catholic on a friday during Lent?
Id quite enjoy a serious version of this, tbh
Last line didn't work 😞
Jesus, how many hobos does Stephen know?!
I'm ashamed I don't know this but is that his wife? They seem really close in Kalamazoo
I just played this in the presence of a vegan and she didn't laugh. She was too busy grooming her fur. (See my avatar)
Who's the girl next to him?
Courtney Jaye
Is that woman his wife? Because she is SMOKIN HOT!!!!!!!
Bc bacon is a gift from God....
77 vegans on this video. :D
