In this edition of #thedailydoug, I'm taking a look at a song by the American rock/comedy duo Tenacious D...featuring Jack Black and Kyle Gass. As I say in the video, I've seen some of Tenacious D over the years, but for some reason I never realized that they had done a full movie. Kickapoo is thte opening song from the musical comedy and features guest vocals from Meat Loaf and Ronnie James Dio! This is a fun romp, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Fun fact: when Dio recorded his part for the album, he did it on his first take and just stayed with JB and the rest of the crew who nerded over him for hours
The behind the scenes of this part was so good. Dio was almost disappointed that he didn't need to do another take.
@@dusty111 it's his fault for being perfect
@@dusty111 Literally suffering from his own success
he did bring his own mike aswell cuz he said he would break theirs :D ... and he did XD
Ya, I always assumed that RJD wasn't very cool... 😅❤
Dio means God in italian. So after Meatloaf (dad) closes the door telling young JB to praise the lord while in his home... JB does exactly that... prays to Dio
This would be an amazing first movie reaction, so many good songs and cameos! Definitely looking forward to that possibility!
OMG I can't upvote this enough. That would be an AWESOME reaction doitdoitdoitdoit!
Yes please Doug!
I‘m in for it as well!
One vote from me also 😊
Yes please 🙏
I love how they got Meatloaf to sing on it and cameo in the movie as the Dad.
And Dio as himself
@@TheAngryMoth104 and Dave Grohl as satan.
@@Templarofsteel88 Isnt Ben Stiller also in this..... later in the movie?
@@Nopper23why so they can read it too
@@Nopper23 ben stiller is in a clip that aired before the movie was made. He's in the "Tribute" clip.
Tenacious D is a legit band. Jack and Kyle are both amazing musicians. You need to go through their catalog.
Wish they did more touring. I would love to see them live.
The Pick of Destiny is the movie that baited me into watching an actual musical because of it's theme :D
More like tricked. I did like some musicals by then, and despite that I went into the theater not having any idea from the trailers it was a musical u til Kickapoo started, and even the. I expected it to just be in the intro.
Where can I watch it these days?? I lost my dvd
@@yomargutierrezf It's on Prime.
This movie is pure an unadulterated love letter to rock and metal music. Every musician should see it even if they do not care for rock music :)
Tenacious D have brought me countless hours of joy for more than 20 years, ever since their first album was released. Just re-watched the Pick of Destiny a couple of weeks ago and it still holds up, even though I've seen it at least 10 times.
Agreed. They are a true cult classic of a band. Every time I revisit any of their media, I'm always impressed by how well it still holds up.
Where can I watch it @miwna been looking for it for yearssss. im from Venezuela
I wonder if he knows that Kyle gass is the youngest person to ever graduate from julliard for classical guitar.
6:05 The one poster he didn't take down, whose name just so happens to stand for God
This is the first time I noticed that there is almost no instruments playing during Dio's lines.
It's almost all just his voice.
every singer just blows it away in this song. and man, dio is divine
RIP Meatloaf and DIO two damn legends 🤘
Holy diver is a hell of a tune
Yesss definitely do more Tenacious D!!! I think you’d find “Tribute” fascinating. There is SO MUCH to that song! I also like “Wonderboy” and one of my more fringe favorites is “City Hall”.
The fact that dio did this in basically 1 take is amazing too
I think that this version is not only a half tone upper, also is faster than the original. Nice reaction and work!
Definitely is
i'd argue a quarter tone
You should have done Classico straight after! I’m sure you’d have appreciated it as a classical composer 😂
Just so you know the video you watched/listened was a half note sharper than the original key of the song
Thank you. I was about to comment the same thing 😅
Aw crap the song hasn't started yet, not looking forward to this lmao
I feel it's been sped up a little bit too
Wow. I never knew they met in an acting troupe run by Tim Robbins. Makes sense, I remember that Jack Black played Sean Penn's younger brother in "Dead Man Walking" back in 1995, which was directed by Tim Robbins, and I once saw an interview where he said an early iteration of Tenacious D performed at the wrap party and Sean Penn asked him why did they play comedic songs because they were good enough to play serious music and Jack Black told him that they'd tried being a serious band but they felt it didn't work.
I absolutely LOVE this movie. The fact that it was a box office bomb is seriously disconcerting.
I saw them live outside Nashville a few weeks ago. They truly bring the thunder!
Your personality brings me joy! Keep being you Doug!!
Totally love it!!😍😂 More, please!!! Thank you!
Just found your channel and not only looking at your other stuff, but also subscribing to see the reaction to the movie
Some crazy bits there, you MUST see it
There is a Tenacious D dvd set called the Complete Masterworks that is the whole TV thing plus extras and song videos and also a full live concert of the two of them alone at I want to say Brixton. It just might blow... your... mind. JB is awesome and KG is too.
Yes, Brixton Academy. I was there 😊
Hands down best musical ever made. it's honestly absolutely incredible.
Another great reaction, Doug! That was a great synopsis of Jack Black. I agree with your observations, 100%.
Wait until you see who plays the devil in the movie. It’s spectacular!
It took me a minute to realize the dad is Meatloaf. I was expecting to see one of his posters up on the wall. Great movie and such a great band. Hope you find more of their stuff to react to
Think I read they did put his up but he refused to tear it down 😂
@@Dracojax lol that is awesome
@@criticalchai The bat figurine he throws down at 5:30 is a figurine of the bat on his "bat out of hell" album
They have a song called Classico in this movie. Seems like the perfect fit for the channel.
It’s amazing how the most mainstream rock songs can have insane classical music roots and songwriting
If you want a really fun Tenacious D track to check out some time, their cover of You Never Give Me Your Money & The End is an absolute masterclass of a cover. Just shows such intimate knowledge of the original but also unmistakably makes it their own.
Amazing movie and soundtrack. Also, how awesome is the scene with meat loaf throwing the phone and saying "you gotta praise the lord when you are in my home " shuts the door and behind it is the only poster left with the LEGENDARY DIO. (Dio is the Italian word for god)
I completely agree with what Jack Black said about music and spirituality. I've been to plenty of concerts where I've found myself overwhelmed with that kind of ecstatic spiritual emotions to the point of tears.
This song (and the movie) take me back. So many great memories go hand & hand with the music for me. Definitely an underrated gem! Dave Grohl rules.
I love the frequency of these videos as it allows the channel to explore a huge range of content in a relatively short time, and I think it's thanks to that method that we're seeing Tenacious D show up here hahaha. Kickapoo is a great intro to the movie with some fantastic cameos popping in. If we're talking Tenacious D, I do hope the Daily Doug eventually visits "Tribute", a cult classic!
Great song! Can't wait for more Tenacious D! I'm new to the channel but I have some suggestions for future video game soundtracks. My top 2 are Chris Christodoulou with his soundtracks for Risk of Rain 1 & 2, and Christopher Larkin with the Hollow Knight soundtrack. Just about any song from these games will be amazing to hear you react to.
I would LOVE for you to react to the entire movie. Seriously.
Listening to DIO's part after a few years gave me goosebumps... Dio is the GOAT of metal
Would LOVE to see you react to this film !! , And a music movie / Band documentary channel is a great idea!
Dio brought his own mic to this recording, but the staff really wanted them to use his. When he promptly blew their mic out with his voice he told them that was why he always brings his own. The man destroys microphones, that's one powerful voice.
And yeah, you NEED to see this movie.
Yes please do the full movie reaction, or at the least the full soundtrack. As an oboe player who loves rock, I greatly enjoy your reactions. Please keep it going forever.
Yes! Do the movie reaction!!! For the love of rock, do it!
I wish you hadn't reuploaded. I really liked the false opening of the first one.
After seeing high fidelity and the performance at the end, you could tell he can sing. Doing Marvin Gaye ain't easy.
SUCH a great movie and great band.
My kids just been to tenacious d concert they loved it
It's awesome that you mentioned Tim Robbins! He has a bit part in "Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny". It's a funny movie! It's a stoner flick and the jokes are pretty juvenile but if you're in the mood for that, you will love it!
You should definitely do a reaction to the movie! It was seriously underrated on release and it seems to have sadly fallen into relative obscurity since. Sure, not every joke landed and a few scenes near the beginning go too long without a song, but it’s still a damn funny movie with some damn good songs. There’s plenty of great music and dialogue about music to analyze!
All I know is this movie is the greatest musical ever and the Dio part is a major ASMR trigger for me, that section sends tingles thru every inch of my body.
I LOVE this film! It's the best musical ever.
You must now watch the scene directly after this....'CLASSICO'
Man you're gonna love the movie. Can't believe you haven't seen it!!!
Great one! You have to watch the whole movie with us 😅
I absolutely love Classico which is just after Kickapoo it’s so talented love this film
Among all timeless classics hung on that wall behind our host, there is Jethro Tull's "Passion play" (Snob, right?).
Nice reaction, I also liked the details and the information after that.
I would love to see your reaction on this legendary movie!!
Listen to Master Exploder, Tribute and Beelzeboss
Master Exploder is a blast!
My favorite Tenacious D video is the cover of Crazy Train with Dweezil Zappa playing lead guitar. Great fun!
Doooouuuuuug, this made me soooooo happy. Pleeeeeeease you have to analyze Tribute, I think you will actually really enjoy the song, and it's beautifully composed. If you want a song with very nice chord progression from tenacious d, then you have to listen to Wonderboy. I loooooove the chord progressions in that song
There is actually an old hbo series that plays all this out done before the movie. It is awesome and a must watch. It was one season long done in 97. Lots of star appearances in it.
Brilliant! hahaha I was just a dumb teenager back in 2006, it was a blast
What a wonderful idea to do music movies reactions .
There are so many I can think of , from Jesus Christ Superstar and easy rider , till The wall and pick of destiny.
Cheers.
Helios from Greece.
I’d love to see a movie reaction from you because it’s such a fun movie with some great cameos. Absolutely love Dave Grohl as Satan😂
The movie is so awesome. I can speak nearly every line with the actors on screen and the music is just brilliantly funny. Have fun with it :)
I still hold that JD only plays one character, himself, but he's lived through enough such that, that is all he needs.
Great movie !!
It is not movie music pers say, they just implemented their music and made a movie out of their band. Need more Tenacious D!
4:31 yoooooo pause buddy you rolled right through that pause 😂
I came across tenacious d only by a workmate who told me of "eat it", where Rick Derringer plays the guitar until it explodes. And that Eddie VanHalen played g in the original.
Yes, you HAVE to watch this :D
There’s an entire TV series of Tenacious D as well. Probably up on Max since it aired there originally.
At 5:53 your reaction to the Dio poster. LMAO😂
Just yes.
One more please....Master Exploder!
You def need to watch this movie. The best musical ever created, PERIOD!
This is something that Meat and Jim would have done too!
Love it.
Started the video, paused it, smoked a joint and now I’m watching the movie. 😂
I cam honestly sing this entire album/movie soundtrack start to finish just from memory. Just some very good music that is hilarious. And yes, I highly suggest watching this movie. It has some fart joke level comedy but it's done so well. Guaranteed to make you laugh and sing along
Yes, PLEASE, do a reaction to Pick of Destiny.
You need to react to the other epic final scene with the song called Belzeboss (or something like that) where they fight the devil himself (played by Dave Grohl) to a rock off..... it´s epic !
Great fing movie! Seen it at the theater with 3 other people underrated big time one of my favorite bands of all time epic 😁
Great reaction! The video you watched was sped up a bit and the pitch was shifted a bit up. Most likely to try and avoid copyright. Still dug the video a ton!
There is another movie called Year One with Jack Black, and i believe he does Gulivers travels too.
A film music reaction child would be a great series.
Watch the movie. Do it!
Great reaction! I love this rock opera so much! Funny yes, but also genius. For those who cringed when Meatloaf was ripping down all those vintage posters, if you look closely he is doing it in a way that they werent really damaged🧐
The awesome power of dios voice blew the microphones tenacious d had for the movie and he had to use his own special mic. Good stuff. Dio was awesome.
Also his dad was meatloaf. Lol
This is one of my son’s favourite films.
would be great for a movie reaction alot of great songs in the POD
If you haven't seen the music video for their song "Tribute" you should check it out
The Great MeatLoaf, was quoted as "I'm an actor who just happens to be able to sing. This probably comes from Meatloaf starting out play in musicals in NYC.
I agree, Jack Black always does a great job, my son loved Kung Fu Panda. In his early days I loved Orange County, but my favorite is still Tropic Thunder, one of the best comedies ever.
Jack is also the voice of Bowser in the new Mario
one of the best movies ever! I have the 'Pick' tattooed on my arm. Fun fact: I was watching 'Meet The Goldbergs' one day and realised that the eldest son, Barry, played young Jables in this movie, he just pulled a particular face and I knew it was him!🤣
Great band. And you do need to watch the movie, kicks ass.
You should definitely do 'Tribute'.
Great episode! If you are to review more Tenacious D (Pick of Destiny) I'd love to hear your thoughts on either Beelzeboss (The Final Showdown) or Tribute!
I'm not sure if he sped the video up for copyright but it is definitely sped up to around 115%
Nerdy fact - the song is pitched up half a step from the album recording in the movie. Not sure why though.
I have friends that are huge Jack Black fans that have STILL not seen this movie. I don't understand it!!!! Watch it now if you haven't yet!
The Pick of Destiny is such a trip. 😂
RIP Dio
