My Name is John Daker - BEST VERSION w/ SUBTITLES
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 เม.ย. 2010
- This might be one of my favorite videos in the world. There really wasn't a video with both Reva Unsicker AND John Daker singing where you could see the video and the words at the same time. NOW that time has come. It's the John Daker Video with the official lyrics! Original version here: • My name is John Daker ...
- ตลก
At 0:39, when he says "My name is John Daker", it's not him introducing himself. It's him coming to the realization.
That made me laugh out loud... 😂
LMFAO 😂, as if this video wasn't funny enough. Now I can never unsee this.
Omw 🤣🤣🤣😆😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Most perfect comment for this video lol
🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭
Left brain: "We need an ambulance."
Right brain: "Whep."
Slappy “Whep”
"Sir, can you tell me what day it is?"
"Scrum scree, Mr. Mawray..."
I think I need an ambulance cause I can't stop laughing at this comment.
OMG...I'm crying here. I mean...whep.
Lol!!!
Jon Daker passed away in February 2022 at age 82. RIP. Thank you for this (unintended) gift.
Did you know Mr.Daker?
Yeah he was my uncle
We miss him very much at meffduss church.
@@Pt0wN973b0iI yes, he was my son, he will be missed very much. He could've been bigger than frank surrntrah but he chose to servb Jeezus chrest instead. Thank you ver much
Had dementia in 1960
John Daker (after the show) “Thank goodness only 5 people watch public access television.”

When it's the one line you're most sure of, you've gotta hit it hard.
Reva's piano introductions are basically a passive aggressive guessing game.
that chord she hits just as John Daker's name appears is UNAPOLOGETIC
Underrated comment of the year...had me busting up uncontrollably :-)
I’m laughing hard enough to hurt at this
@@mooreim Hahaha! Have a great day!
Despite the subtitles, the woman just has a heavy accent, but John over here is almost certainly fading in and out of consciousness.
That's not fair! If that woman were here she'd say: "WellIidonthing Ihuff anssent howdarusay sushthins?!"
😂 for sure. Although I will say Reva was fucking with people trying to sing for over 55 years in that town with her speeding the tempo up and every person for themself mentality.
She totally threw him under the bus, hitting those keys as if there was no tomorrow. She gives him no support whatsoever.
that's not a heavy accent...lol her non-linear sentence structure, and she's been teaching Sunday School most likely she's either on the spectrum or loaded. or both! John kills me. this video is always here when i need to laugh. why is the microphone a few feet behind her? :D
Oh, cut him a break. It can't be an easy life being a member of the Fersh Yooni Mefduff Chursh.
Alexander Stuart, you are the funniest person alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh shit I just farted laughing at this comment.
Omg YES
LMFAO this is my favorite thing

Came for the whep.
Stayed for the scrum screeee.
Ok, i am crying at this comment, no lie 🤣🤣🤣
What about the “dits”
aloopa
I came for the Sut's of men and angels...
Bell will ring ting-a-ling tingawlinnnng as a bell ...bing...
I have said “Whep?” every time a situation has gone sideways in the past 12 years thanks to this great man.
I find myself saying yrgn more than I would like.
There are 55 years worth of Reva Unsicker stories in that town. And I would love to hear every single one of them.
Me too. Oh yes, me too!
Omg we need a TH-cam channel dedicated to this woman
WHEP
The little "whep" always gets me

Bwaag, totally bwaag.
You really threw me for an aloopa with that comment.
1:20
ŁYYPPP

I've never seen speech rendered into subtitles with such cruel precision.
Rest In Peace, John Daker. You may have forgotten your name for a second there, but we’ll remember you for as long as the moon hits our eyes like big pizza pies.
Preeza pie....
"Yo, Dakes, you gonna practice for your performance tonight?" "Nah, cuz. I'mma wing it."
Mike R. I don’t think the piano is rushing. I think John Daker here just doesn’t know his lines.
I think the piano was a bit rushed but literally he forgot the words...
MapleLeafAce “Dakes” that fuckin killed me
Mike R. I’ve got this.
"NOPE."
This is like when you try to sing quieter with everybody else because you can't remember the lines...except it's only him.
ohhhh noooooo
THISSS AHAHJVDHBD
The most frequent example of this is at birthday parties, when everyone is supposed to sing Happy Birthday, but not everybody knows the person's name, cause they are just there for the free food and to maybe get laid:
🎵
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday.....uh 👀...something something....
Happy birthday to you....😁
Spot fucking on
Couldnt have said it better myself
watching this and reading these comments is the hardest i've laughed all quarantine
Me too. Had to wait till the tears cleared to type. Best vid yet, even better than Quarantine Bohemian Rhapsody - everyone I know is gonna get this link.
This is the hardest I ever laughed at a TH-cam vid, quarantine or not! Lol
Same here!
It’s just too much
I’ve watched this many times, and now I’m sitting in a doctor’s waiting room watching this and can’t stop laughing.
I love the confidence with which he delivers the few lines he knows.
"You're in looove"
"Back in old Napoli
I love the little eyebrow wiggle at 1:01. He's just like "Yeah, nailed it. You like that?"
And then IMMEDIATELY forgets his place.
Lol. This comment is underrated
God smited him for getting cocky
Trying to hold in a fart or something? Whilst the old lady was inebriated. He was stoned.
The eye contact🤣🤣🤣
Maybe homeboy's got a thing for the cameraperson...
A lot of people cracked up at this video.

Every Easter they sing “Christ the lord is risen today” in church and without fail my brother and I will always drop our voices a few octaves and pay tribute to our true lord and savior, John daker.
You in the Dakerite sect.
I like the passion and confidence with which he sing “you’re in love” at 1:52 after all the prior awkwardness
Whenever I get into a bad argument with my wife and start thinking about divorce, I just sit back for a minute, take a few deep breaths and remind myself, "dits....... You're in love."
Whep.
Pee Bottle Just think back fondly to all your scrum screeee-ing in old Napoli and you'll be fine. Works for me and my husband every time. Yrgn.
🤣🤣🤣 this comment is the best and funniest!
And don't forget to think about your marriage that "this huss been eeh aht nice - bwaag - time for me?"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I'M DEAD

His eyebrows knew the words.
Ah, hahahaha!
Best comment! You win YT today or a year ago when you made it. 😅
thats as funny as the video
rest in peace, John Daker! You've brought so much joy to all of us.
What, NOooOOO he passed? 🥺

Reva is playing lightning fast because she has a meatloaf in the oven at home.
I bet you there's a gelatin "salad" a-settin up too.
He said his name as a gentle reminder to the pianist that he was, in fact, there. He had taken the gig reluctantly, as he was well aware of Reva's reputation for playing everything in compounded uptempo. The longer she played, the faster she got, until the crucial 180bpm at which point she would drop the bass and then it was every man for himself.
I’ve wanted context for this for so long. God, that poor guy.

best bit to me is aloopa scrum scree... but also shout out to Sut's of a men and taoooowl and the fact that he didnt know SHIT about how to start a line... AT ALL! the entire performance... didnt know how to start ANY line

Most underrated comment ever
I SAW A POST WITH THAT AND THAT’S WHAT BROUGHT ME HERE 😂😂😂 I’m dying
I looked in our hymnal in church and “my name is John Dakur “ is definitely not the first line in “Jesus Christ is risen today.”
You probably just missed it.
Gotta write it in now
TheDevilockedzombie whep
Wayne Olsen The Unitedneffdhistcherch hymnal does have that as the first line.
My bff went to church and in the program was a song with the title “Hark the Harold Angels Sing.” 😂😂😂
Y’know, upon closer inspection she never said they were singing That’s Amore by Harry Warren. She said ‘annis gonna do ammorah too’. After some dissection it seems to be a free improvisation based on the above mentioned piece.
Y'know how much I love this video?
At my wedding reception I had the DJ play Christ the Lord is Risen Today followed by Amore.
People were very confused about why the first song was playing, then when Amore came on, slightly fewer people were confused.

And an eel bites your knee,

I don't think this man has realised how much joy, laughter and cringe he has brought to the world...
He's dead... I was John Dakers boss at cwtc in Peoria Illinois back in the early 90s... He has mental illness or should I say had a mental illness... True story
He knows. Someone actually found him and showed him the video with all the comments. They asked him if he wants to say anything to his fans, and he said "Message received, and thank you".

"Whep" is the sound of a brain slipping on a banana peel.
I've cried a lot of sad tears lately. This video & comments brought the first happy tears in a long time. Scrum scree, Reva & John!
The subtitles make it so much better

Rest in peace, patron saint of church music. I expect your wheps will fill the halls of heaven to eternity.
If you're a church musician and make this regular Easter listening hats off to you. RIP John Daker the Legend
I thank God everyday that Reverent Jones, Bill Jones, was nawt hurr dunite.
Underrated AF
Seems like they really needed his leadership. 😆
A rare example of a cover that surpasses the original
RIP Mr. Daker The next time I whep, I will think of you. I will never listen to Christ the Lord is Risen Today in any other way except your way. It's even more popular nowadays because of you. May God welcome you with triumphs foiiiii!!!!! The bells are ringing!!! Tingalingaling!
I see nothing wrong with this performance. Absolute perfection. Thank you, Mr. Daker.

Yo, actually though. XD

John is not well. He's a great man. Look up the Facebook group the John daker experience. A sweet local lady who is a fan goes and sees him almost daily and gives updates. It's sad seeing him go down hill. He's on hospice in the nursing home and probably won't be with us much longer. We've all gotten laughs and joy from his video. Let's all show the respect that he deserves now on his short time left.
There are vids of him hearing this recording out in public and he sang along with it.... he was SO NICE. Just the sweetest, gentlest Christian man you'd ever meet. I'm not religious but I love to think of him singing in that big choir. RIP to him

Every element of this is understandable on its own, but the fact that they are all happening at once makes the perfect storm of hilarity. John Daker, if you ever read this, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I would be very surprised if he is still alive, given the age of the video..
Who would even THINK of a "Christ The Lord..."/"That's Amore" medley to begin with? 🤔
Also, that lady just took off and left him in the dust; she just wanted to get this over with.
😂
@A Glass of Orange Juice Oh man, I had forgotten about this video...till I got your comment response. Then I had to come back & remind myself. 🤣 🍷
To be fair to the lady, the worst thing an accompanist can do is attempt to compensate for an inept singer. Just keep going or it descends into chaos.
@@ian_b Actually (from the perspective of a music teacher), a GOOD accompanist is attentive to the soloist, and can follow if the soloist's tempo fluctuates (which it can in even seasoned musicians). I still maintain that good ol' Reva just wanted to get this over with.
"SLOW THE FUCK DOWN, BEULAH!!"
i was going to say that was probably the only other song he knew by heart, but then you watch the video and it's clear that he doesn't.
I'd consider becoming a christian if I got this show every sunday.
You and I, and any of us would die of laughter, and he wouldn't be able to go on.
It would kill us. The hilarity. Being there. It would be the end of us.
But what a sweet death it would be, literally laugh-crying our hearts out of our eyes.
It happens in church more often than you may think. Maybe not quite to the extent, but plenty of mistakes on the regular
Trust me, it's too big a price to pay.
AMEN
My Name is John Daker - BEST VERSION w/ SUBTITLES 2115pm 16.5.22 the worst off the cuff singer this side of the blue ridge...no karaoke for this dude. i can envisage him singing his skit as he puts out the garbage of a night.... his wife laughing in the distance.

They sang the first song in church today and I couldn't handle it. 🤣
I sang this in an Aquaboggin parking lot on Easter Morning yesterday.
That's where we had our Easter service (I'm the pianist/choir director). It was broadcast over FM radio to the congregation members sitting in their cars with the heat on (we're in Maine and it's cold). I took the Reva Cooper Unsicker tempo. It was glorious.
Oh gosh, every time we sing this in church or Go Tell It On the Mountain, after seeing Henrietta and Merna, I have to pinch myself to keep from cracking up in the middle of the congregation!
God bless those fine people for giving us such wonderfully amusing takes on classic hymns!
This man is the Terminator of singing. He will keep going and not stop for anything short of the apocalypse.
My whole life has been leading up to the moment that I'd seen this video.
I feel the fucking same!!!
And like the video, Our Lives are a fucking joke
Me too. Maybe a cult of John Daker needs to be started.
I haven't laughed so hard in weeks. This comment section is top notch.
I've scrum screed my way through a song or two
Lol I think we all have.
Pretty sure we all have but we werent on stage.... on the mic.... solo.... 😆

This still lives in my head rent free.
Not enough people realize the lady is rushing, which is why John is having trouble getting the lines out
I think she speeds up because she realizes he doesn't know the lines.
I believe that sweet old lady is hammered
Oh I definitely hear it. She is just jamming to her own timing and ignoring him.
You mean like the way she talks?
Nah, she's just doing jazz
i love how he interrupts the music to say my name is john daker
+Caleb Stinson And he said it as if he was known world wide. "My name is John Daker" all cocky and whatnot, didn't even remember 2 lines of the songs..
+THEPELADOMASTER more like all of the lines except for the first
Caleb Stinson I don't think he even knew where he was.
THEPELADOMASTER Probably lol
It is my sincere belief that Reva never forgave him for that initial interruption, and made out like the damn Juggernaut through the rest of the performance.
Typed "whep" in the search bar to find this video again and it worked! 😂😂😂
This John Daker classic and Henrietta and Myrna singing “Go Tell It On The Mountain” are legendary!!!

this is public broadcasting in a nutshell but it also feels freakishly surreal
You ever laughed so hard that you had to just lay down and pass out. That’s me. I just regained consciousness.

I first saw this video a few months ago and knew I had stumbled upon something legendary. Me and my family have lost our breaths and cried laughing at this masterpiece of a medley, which is made ever better by the wonderful subtitles. It's a shame John Daker passed away recently. He brought a lot of sunshine to this world.
This makes me laugh so hard my stomach hurts. I love how she says that 'Christ The Lord is Risen Today' is 'very popular nowadays.' I hear it at every rave I attend.
ELBSeattle she was probably being referential to the church community. A lot of sects of churches tend to have their own kinds of societal circles and cultures.
xDDD
Took TH-cam 9 years to bring this to me. My sides literally hurt from laughing. 😂🤣
I’m just seeing it now. Until this moment, my life was hollow and meaningless.
Missing our beloved Mr. Daker this Easter. Rest In Peace!
THIS is the content I look for from TH-cam.
That look at the end is like: “I think I might have got away with that...” 😂
😂🤣👍
Westley Nash bingo
I was already laughing but this comment murdered me.
"I think I nailed the you're in love part."
this video should have been send with Voyager 1 as celebration of human life
Might have worked as an effective way to show some of us was complete idiots. For the full effect they should enclose two good examples of those songs done correctly. Although perhaps they'll just think this is an intentional comedy if we do that.
Brilliant!
Happy Easter 2022 I come here to pay homage every Easter.
Haha same!
Rip John, I’m sure you’re singing it up there in glory.
