Bill Hader is the king of 80s dance moves
he's king period!
legitimately
Not denying Bill's talent but he did almost nothing here. Dana Carvey and Fred Armison were way better in this one
He had no lines, but he stole the show many times!
@@Dukeflyhawker you can play guitar and bass? Kewlness! :D
Fred Armisen is a gift from God
He's talented in so many ways. Comedically, musically, as a writer and actor. Love him and Bill on Documentary Now!
I love that guy always makes me laugh and Bill also
One of my favourites on SNL.
yes ❤️
I am crazy for him
As a British person Fred’s accent is spot on! And Dana gives off a Gary Oldman vibe.
Cheers!
Agree!
I thought it was Gary in the thumbnail 🤭
@@kathleenjohnston7344 same!
❤️
“This is about the Super Bowl”
“Smearing my lipstick on the bedroom mirror while I cry about you”
“LIPSTICK?”
That's defo an Aaron Hernandez move.
Bill Hader's very convincing stoic new wave movements..yes!
Bill Hader's killin' it in the back...
I’ve watched this skit several times and never even payed attention to him until now 🤣
@@m3li55a5 WHAT?! I am the opposite - I know I must give Fred his due, so I drool over Bill a couple times, then I watch a third time for Fred. :)
He is channelling one of those girls from an 80's Robert Palmer video.
Fred: "This is about the Super Bowl anyway, isn't it?"
Dana: "That's right, it's about the Super Bowl - "
Fred: "SMEARING MY LIPSTICK ON THE BEDROOM MIRROR WHILE I CRY ABOUT YOU"
Lol
Jason: "LIPSTICK?" LOL
Lmaooo I love that part.
Vikings fans can relate.
Yup....that’s what happened in the video....
Bill Hader silently KILLING IT lmao I love this
I actually just a little tiny bit liked the song :P
+MrHazey123 hehe
Haha yup
Very 'Human League'/'Thompson Twins'. Take Green Bay and lay the points!
...not bad song
Lol Awesome song.
Lol, Taran's dance at the end is just amazing!
Right!? Lol
Spencer from iCarly vibes
Embrace Me
Standing in the motel room
Looking out to the neon lights
Your finger traced my lips
As we drove through the Paris night
Weeping in the pouring rain
With blue mascara running down my face
Dancing with my trousers off
At the disco in Berlin
All I can say is
Embrace me
Embrace me
Under the neon lights
Embrace me
Smearing my lipstick on the bedroom mirror
While I cry about you
Traipsing through the streets of Rome
With sparkles in my hair
All I can say is
Embrace me
Embrace me
Under the neon lights
Embrace me
Thx
Thank you!!
I have 2 words for you. ‘EMBRACE ME’
This was actually better than 90% of Super Bowl halftime shows.
HOW in the world is this LEGENDARY sketch so rarely watched?
Hader in the background is really what made me laugh.
I love Bill Hader. He's hilarious. But what made me ROLF was the dancing at the beginning! Priceless🤣and ofcourse them speaking British
"Embrace Me" could`ve been easily in any record in the 80s of Soft Cell, Human League or Spandau Ballet
or early Depeche mode
Or Roxy music
NOT Spandau Ballet! ABC for sure, maybe the Thompson Twins.
Or Infornation Society, New Order too, Real Life too 😍
Later on, perhaps Lush with Miki and Emma
I’m really feeling this song.
Matthew Velasquez Yeah man, it’s a JAM! 😺
Saame!
I want to play it on repeat 🎶
Yass. You're my people.
Ultravox meets Duran Duran meets Tears for Fears. I truly appreciate this song...is it a skit? It’s too real to me as a child of the 80’s.
I got more of an early Depeche Mode vibe, before Vince Clarke left to form Yaz.
Yes! and also maybe a touch of Modern English.
As I was watching this sketch, I couldn't help but think "I'm gonna tell my kids that this was 'The Smiths' "
From Bill Hader I got more of a Robert Palmer-female-bassist-in-"Addicted to Love" vibe.
Soft cell "standing at the door of the pink flamingo crying in the rain"
Dana's facial expressions and dance moves make me laugh so hard, and the fingerless gloves - nice touch. Definite Gary Oldman vibe. Fred Armisen is a music parody master, everything he does is brilliant comedy. Love the band's trenchcoats and 80's hair, and "Embrace Me"....can't get it out of my head!! The lyrics - OMG LOL SNL
Gary Oldman...or Gary Numan? Lol
Bill Hader can take a scene without saying a word
I was JUST thinking that.
As I watched this, I thought Armesin did amazing especially asking if it was a superbowl song.
Noticed Hader had no lines and the skit held up fine but I knew there would be comments like this and your way off. Get off Bill's nuts and give some credit where its due
@@corycarroll6482 Exactly
@Dr. Hughie L Mungus M.D. exactly like Im new to SNL's world and i love fred ,bill n others ..they are so talented but it gets annoying sometimes when i see only bill hader comments even tho if someone else is more deserving.
@@corycarroll6482 Fred is always amazing!!!!
Bill Hader really enjoying the music there. Love him!
Bill Hader in the back lol
Yeah was waiting for him to suddenly sing or do somethg Lol
The Vindicator nice profile pic
Im having crush on this bass player Bill, I want to see more of him. I think obsession for Bill Hader is getting quite unhealthy now.
Stefoooon
@@catslogics : You're darn right...it's not good for you, Hani-mouse
I actually love this type of music.
I love it too!
Me as well.
Same here.
SAME!!!!
i wouldn't have been to disappointed if this band went on during the game.
As a child of the 80's I have to say it really is not that bad - the song that is.
As an adult of the 80s, I have to say that it is.
@@anne-droid7739its pretty good lol
@@Honeibadgerr Well, there are certainly a number of post-80s words for it... :D
@@anne-droid7739 You cried on the dance floor to this in 1982 when you were still a guy, tho
The song was pretty bad.
Fred's accent, genuinely not that bad :D
Chicken Permission you know, i have been binge watching snl episodes where bill hader is present even the slightest. and you always there
Mahardika Pitaloka Haha, yeah, I'm kind of addicted, I just love him so much xD
Fred is my favorite when he looks like he’s gna break 🤣
@@Rachel98246 yep me too. I think I'm obsessed with him.
When early 80s Depeche Mode walks into a Buffalo Wild Wings on Superbowl Sunday...
This is truly such a great message . The Jocks are being serenaded by people who feel and express themselves. We all need to embrace the unlovable some how.Even if it's just listening to them.
Bill Hader though 😂👌🏻
Dana reminded me of Gary Oldman.
You beat me to it! LOL!!!
John waters.
Totally. Glad I'm not the only one. I legit thought it was Gary for a bit.
I thought the same thing.
Embracetheweird Yup click-baited by Dana’s wee ‘tache. I love the cod-English vibe, probably been watching Ricky Gervais’ On Top of The Pops doin his Bowie cloned vocals.
BIll Hader looks like John Taylor of Duran Duran ♥
I'm pretty sure that was the point. lol
It was the hair - totally the same!!!
When I saw this I instantly thought of Duran Duran
Omg yea
As one who was there, I can say they nailed the 80's pretentious glam thing!
This song gets stuck in my head from time to time.
Glad to hear I’m not the only one!! Ha ha! 😂 Had to rewatch this clip as it popped into my head today! 👍😊
I revisit it occasionally.Would 💯 listen.
I love Taran's smile at 3:16
Bill Hader is epic here as a bass player :D
The rhythm section killed it.
Noémi lol
. L.,, .
This skit is cast perfect Jason sudekis and bobby could never switch places with Fred n Dana n bill lol and Taran perfect as the bartender too awesome lol
Noémi its so frigging hilarious
Homie's got moves
I love Sudekis's angry outbursts. GrEeN bAy!!!
This song has been stuck in my head and I had to come back and hear it again
Joseph Hunt hahahah same here
All I can say is Embrace Me!
Under the Neon lights, Embrace Me!
Lol its stuck in my head.
Catchy Tune
I like this song and the song they sing in the Chuck E Cheese sketch
I want Bill Hader to hold me the way he's holding that bass at the beginning. :D
I fucking love this song
Tazz AndStuff me too
the only way to say it
If you were feeling "embrace me" then you'll really love "space pants" with Peter Dinklage
Not a fan of Peter Dinklage so I highly doubt it.
This is very true, space pants is a banger!!!!
Thank you so much for this recommendation! I can seriously see Space Pants released on November 13, 1980, staying at #1 until January 1982, and then Embrace Me takes over.
I love how the drummer is actually trying to sound like he's playing the drums. It's all in the details.
I absolutely love this song. Fred is genius
Out of all the footage of Bill Hader I’ve watched... I always come back to this one, where he doesn’t say a word, yet my eyes still stay locked on him.
Jason’s “NO!” At 2:49 always gets me
i can't get that : ' embrace me under the neon lights embrace me ' out of my head !! # Help !! :D
This song is actually kinda good. Hader's dance moves on the bass were spot on to 1984.😅😃
Absolutely!
I have watched it so many times it's still cracks me up every time. But the first time was the best cuz I nearly pissed myself laughing.
"Come on for the Packers... embrace me." 😂
Fred's joke music is still better than anything on the radio.
"With blue mah-scah-ra running down my face" lol
“Embrace me- come on, for the Packers!” why is this line so funny to me
I just noticed that was Bill Hader in the back and this scene got 1 million times better LMAO
I don't know how bill wasn't breaking😂😂😂
It appears he broke a tiny bit at 2:30!
He loves music...
Is it bad that I would legitimately listen to them😂😂😂
They kind of remind me of The Thompson Twins. I love Fred Armisen’s voice. He is a great singer in anything he does,
SNL has done several skits about unexpected/unwanted new wave synth bands. And I love every one. Also, Bill Hader looks amazingly hot in this.
I like the sketch where they play new wave in a Chuck E Cheese
Bill hader, looks like a even more emo stefon in this skit
I adore 80’s British new wave/romantics music. I would’ve been into this band if they were real “embrace me!”
Totally
I actually really like the song and its 80s new wave/synthpop sound. Definitely inspired by Soft Cell's Say Hello, Wave Goodbye.
The youtube algorithm has finally worked out what sort of snl sketches I like. What a crack up.
Depeche Mode/The Cure/Soft Cell/Duran Duran/The Human League/Tears For Fears
song reminds me of soft cell's say hello, wave goodbye, fred's martin gore hair, and bill's mick karn moves THIS IS MY ONE FAVOURITE SNL SKETCH
Hearing Jason sudeikis say "lipstick" during keenan sad face, just made me lose it😂😂
"You know the more you carry on like that, the more of the game you going to misss" >D
Bill's face, straight out of an early 80's video, LOL!
Dana + Bill + Fred= perfect!
Bill is in the back gettin it!🤣
I love the song. It makes me think of "say hello, wave goodbye".
This is every song made in the 80s.
Totally
False
^
Ever hear of Mötley Crüe, Metallica, Skid Row, etc.
Uh the 80s is much more diverse than early 80s new wave
"were the fingerlings" I lost it
Whoever made the choice at 2:12, to show Kenan going ☹️ while Jason yells “LIPSTICK”, almost like it’s Kenan’s inner monologue… man that person deserves a raise
Someone needs to make this song LEGIT I can't hear it anywhere but here !
The best cast - they were all in one. Amazing, intelligent writers, excellent actors, perfect comedians, with a very refined, artsy sense of humor.
Fred had me at: "Hellooow.."
High key this song fucking SLAPS!! SNL can write music like no one's business.
Love Paul Britton silently holding his own with three legends
Haha yes his 80s new wave smirk the whole time 😏😂
Wow, this song is really amazing.
It is like a good band played a good song in front of the wrong people in the wrong place.
These guys are incredibly charming- I would def go see them
Come on for the packers lol 😂
Bill Hader serving Duran Duran realness
This is kind of a song which u hate it at first but will eventually gets addicted to it😂😂
I love that the song takes place in every European city
Bill Hader...not a word...but absolute best physical performance !!!
Man, this whole episode of SNL with Dana hosting was so good. I remember watching it over and over again.
Someone should do a supercut video of Keenan’s face over the last 12 years in various skits. Lmao
I love them...they are the perfect pub band......your lucky to have them.
Bill Hader is so perfect in the background.
When your sister gets married and you get a brother-in-law, you basically have to decide whether you're the bartender or the singer in this sketch.
This was THE BEST CAST IN THE PAST 17 YEARS, just ABSOLUTELY DREAMY, YOU GOT THERE JASON, KEENAN, BILL, TARAN, BOBBY, THE GREAT DANA , I MEAN JUST AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME A ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ STAR CAST, AND WAS FUNNY, BASICALLY HAD IT'S OWN BAND, I MEAN JUST ABSOLUTE DREAM CAST!
that's awesome like soft cell depeche mode sparks
Whoever wrote this song is a fucking magician!!!
They would play at my wedding 😂
I would hire crisis of conformity for a wedding.
I love to think of these four guys living in 21st century Green Bay
i rather listen to them then watch sports any day. That was actually a good song.
Haha I don’t wana watch sports or listen to that shit BUT together they make a funny as hell skit ;)
@Kanishk Nishar More Soft Cell, methinks
I liked it too
@Kanishk Nishar No, but it's understandable to think that. British New Wavers and New Romantics were his musical "children", so to speak. Almost all of them are huge fans of his, and many of them say that seeing him sing Starman on Tops of the Pops in 1972, when they were tweens and teens, changed their lives.
@Kanishk Nishar More just New Wave
Erasure, Thomson Twins, Pet Shop Boys, Real Life, Depeche Mode, Human League
This song would’ve slapped in the 80s
Carvey, Armesin and Harder....BRILLIANT
I genuinely like the song, to my surprise.
The verses remind me of “Say Hello, Wave Goodbye” from Soft Cell! (I know, probably already been said).
This is actually better than most super bowl halftime shows.
As soon as they beat dropped I was like “hell yeah!”
smearing my lipstick on the bedroom mirror while I cry about you
isn‘t that basically the opening scene of skeleton twins?
