And this song was written by Emmy nominees and Grammy Winners Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie. Bret also won the Oscar. And the director of this clip is Oscar winner, Taika Waititi...
@@Gryffyth_Aurum actually the whole show is great across the board and full of laugh out loud hilarious moments, Taika is wonderful but his directing one episode of flight of the concords isn’t what makes it a masterpiece of comedy.
The absolute simplicity of Murray’s feelings and the lyrics paired with the beautiful melody make this one of my fav FOTC songs. Almost tears, every time
i listened to this song on repeat the day my brother died. murray saying goodbye at the end always brought the tears. lyrics aside the tone and rhythm of this song is perfect for lamenting a regretful goodbye.
I saw an interview with Bret McKenzie right about the time he won the Academy Award for Best Original Song (for "Man or Muppet"). In the interview he said they hope to make a FOTC movie as soon as they can come up with some sort of plot. I hope it happens.
And 4 years after this comment... we still hope. Unless they already did and I didn't know. You see I worked for fed ex and I was on a plane from Russia to the U.S but it went down and I survived by living on a tropical island full of coconuts and having sex with a soccer ball which I named...Spalding, after my dentist. Yeah I'm gay, Helen hunt never knew! Anyway I'm back and just trying to catch up. My lover Spalding, moved on pretty quick. How quick you ask, well let's just say, I didn't even board the plane and he moved in with a tennis ball named..::dun dun duuuunnnn::: Tom Hanks!!!! Can you believe that shit? Anyway I love FOTC!
I wasn’t sure if I really liked flight of the concord, or if it was just because it was recommended. But I know I love this song. Is it because of the creepy whispers or repetition of leggy, leggy, leggy, blondie, blondie blondie? Or is it just how talented they are to make office supply be part of the musical instrumentation. It’s awesome.
Yeah, now I need a scene of Ed singing this with Frenchie playing his lute when he hears about Stede’s death. Meanwhile, Stede’s on the high seas searching for his boyfriend to get back together
Well ... actually, Andrew Drost only sings for Murray on 1 song, "Rejected", featured in Season 2 Episode 1. Murray provides his own voice for "Leggy Blonde" and any other songs he may sing.
I love the move from slow ballad to rapping from Jermaine - Slow it down to .5 and .75 and this is what it sounds like..... "Hoop lotta blonde dude got it goin' on, wanna see wearin' that thong thong thong. See gettin' on 'til the break of dawn, mumble mumble with panties on"......just genius.
“Whoa Leggy Blonde you got it goin on wanna see ya wearin’ that thong thong thong See ya gettin’ it on till the break of dawn Running around with your panties on…” Oh, Jemaine!! You rapscallion!!
Abt 13 yrs ago a leggy blonde from HR came n sat behind us ... one day she said she got a better job... I sang this in my head for weeks ... good byeee
do yall think when Rhys Darby sang Leggy Blonde as Flight of the Conchords' band manager Murray on their television program of the same name that he knew he, himself, would someday be that very Leggy Blonde

"your hair down to your legs and your legs down to the floor"
Can't get over that line. It's amazing.
Rhys Darby is such an underrated comedy genius
More Rhys Darby in everything.
I absolutely did not expect to see him in Guns Akimbo, and he was just as funny there as he was here!
@@ocharakau645 He’s in ASOUE Netflix Series as well
@@sakarelius4150 you should watch our flag means death!
True dat
"I had a budgie but it died" line cracks me up every time.
I like pie! Is equally funny!
I like pie always kills me. It's such a basic 8 year olds-rhyme that I can't help it.
found this during a post-our flag means death episode, rhys is a blessing
Ikr? I hope you saw the two fan edits that exist of this song on stede flashbacks....truly gold
This was such a gem. Just imagining now Blackbeard singing for Stede next season on OFMD tbh.
Omggggg
Taika directed this particular episode too
A OMFD fan already made a montage on TH-cam with Leggy Blonde!
@@pajamaparty01 its true, I think this episode was a premonition 😅🙈
@@schmohobzsia7216 i just saw that and almost shit my pants once i realized what the song was
And this song was written by Emmy nominees and Grammy Winners Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie. Bret also won the Oscar. And the director of this clip is Oscar winner, Taika Waititi...
Had no idea Taika directed this clip no wonder it’s so good!
@@rabbitruler44 He directed this entire episode, actually! One of my favorites
Jesus, no wonder its a masterpiece of comedy.
@@Gryffyth_Aurum actually the whole show is great across the board and full of laugh out loud hilarious moments, Taika is wonderful but his directing one episode of flight of the concords isn’t what makes it a masterpiece of comedy.
Taika not only directed but wrote this episode. Taika directed like 4 episodes but this one was the one he wrote and even cameo-d in
Everything about this show is genius. I love Bret's deadpan face as jemaine does his rap
And the few words in that rap when no actual words are being said
I was describing it to my mother as ver dry humor that segways into a musical from time to time
Coz they didnt agree on it but put it in anyway haha
I just love how laissez-faire Brett is in general.
*shrug* yeh... no...
I can't imagine how he kept a straight face. I would love to see the outtakes
How is it that the wayJemaine sings "leggy, leggy, leggy, leggy" is the most soothing thing ever to me
it's not just you, that guys voice is fantastic
♫ Leggeh leg-a leg e-leggeh. ♫
It gives me a John Mayer vibe for some reason
Stuck in my head
I love whenever Jemaine mumbles instead of singing actual lyrics.
It seems to be a running joke that he often has verses with really weak lyrics. For intentional comedic affect, of course :)
@@JonathanRodd He's the rhymenocerous... His lyrics are bottomless. 😉
The mumble is how it was intended, as he said in the band meeting before
The original mumblerapper
@@sebbe4717 😂😂😂😂
The absolute simplicity of Murray’s feelings and the lyrics paired with the beautiful melody make this one of my fav FOTC songs. Almost tears, every time
God damn, the part with the photocopier is the coolest thing
I agree.
If yall think thats cool, watch the music video for Obsession by OK GO
th-cam.com/video/LgmxMuW6Fsc/w-d-xo.html
Reminds me of that A-Ha video
i listened to this song on repeat the day my brother died. murray saying goodbye at the end always brought the tears. lyrics aside the tone and rhythm of this song is perfect for lamenting a regretful goodbye.
Was he a leggy blonde?
I get It
Yep. I get it. Spot on.
That's kinda beautiful dude, hope you're ok
Oh, mate :(
The genius was in how they incorporated everything from the song notes meeting.
th-cam.com/video/hAJhzubEOxw/w-d-xo.html
Here's the meeting, for those who haven't seen it.
so that's why I keep seeing this played over videos of Stede, love it
Yesssss those edits are amazing
Ngl i came into this thinking Leggy Blonde was about Rhys' character, since he's blond and has some amazing legs
He's a ginge irl tho
But yes, AMAZING LEGS
@@ellaisplotting IS HE REALLY. Ops
He's ginger though. They even call him Ginger Balls in one episode.
It is
This segment is criminally underrated. This is Broadway level perfection. Gives me goosebumps every time I watch it.
This show was one of a kind. Especially that first season. perfect combination of humor, music, and occasional melancholy.
there is zero way that anyone in the world could ever possibly hate this song.
Except leggy blondes.
I sorta don't like the freestyle solo at the end but other than that it's pretty perfect.
@@jonaswhitt4322agreed
This song creates a safe space in my mind. I love the sound of Rhys Darby's voice. 🥰😘❤🙏🤗🤭🤌
By far my favorite FOTC song. It definitely grew on me.
When he crosses out hi and writes goodbye ='(
it gives me goosebumps every time!
OmikronGT just noticed that. Thanks. : (
Liek if you cri everytim
I felt that
you can also read the words "I had a budgie..."
this was that show that you cried a bit when it was gone, yet are happy it STILL LIVES ON TH-cam. one of the most under rated series ever.
Coming into 2022 listening to this absolute banger, new year done right.
Rhys Darby's songs on flight were certainly some of the most iconic with this and cheer up murray being my two personal favorites
I love the animated bits on the photocopier with the stationary sounds :3 Such a good song.
Totally dig their rolling harmonies,... And still manage to be funny... Awesome...
Fun fact: This episode was written and directed by Taika Waititi
Ok
Gay
I saw an interview with Bret McKenzie right about the time he won the Academy Award for Best Original Song (for "Man or Muppet"). In the interview he said they hope to make a FOTC movie as soon as they can come up with some sort of plot. I hope it happens.
Rich Mullinax still waiting...
:'(
New special this year!!!
Made a plot robots invade in the year 2000
And 4 years after this comment... we still hope.
Unless they already did and I didn't know.

Holy Fork, I need to hear more of Rhys singing! #crush
Some exemplary playing from the stationery section
This pops into my head every now and again. That and Pet shop boys. Genius show .
This makes me want a musical "our flag means death" episode even more
I’m really hoping we get an episode in season 2 where Bret and Jemaine cameo as a couple of sea-travelling musicians.
@@quentinhiller8831 that sounds fucking amazing
@@quentinhiller8831 yes!!!
Yeeeeeees! With Bret and Jemaine 🤩
@@quentinhiller8831 YEEEEEEEEES!!!
I had a budgie but it died. I like... PIE.
My fav line
Woah woah woah
This show made me laugh so much and sometimes hit me right in the feels even though it probably wasn’t the intention to make me feel emotional 😂
I think it was meant to be emotional as well as funny. This crew know what they’re doing :) Hit you in the heart as well as the funny bone.
This episode is how I realized that Taika Waititi is my favorite director.
If my friends and family don’t honor my wishes and play this at my funeral they’re getting haunted.
Time goes by and this is still a banger
taika waititi directed this episode
ah wow thanks i didnt know that!
Yeah he’s in some weird commercial the guys are watching earlier in the episode
That makes sense that's why it's so good

Poor greg, hes so nice and thoughtful to Murray :(
3:14 always makes me crack up.
Brett's face too.
Me too... I guess you could say "I like pi!"
SeherFettProductions damn you stole my joke
This is a rather silly show, but this song has a beauty to it--as the whole show has a sort of quiet beauty to it.
"Now that you are gone I'll never see you here, for Tech Repair......." So simple but so genius.
clicked on the most replayed part....goddamnit Jemaine
I wanna see Murray with Michael Scott trying to find that woman form the chair catalogue
omg im cum
Rhys Darby woulda made a great replacement for Steve Carrell
So many country's national anthems are all about themselves. Not ours. Good on ya Murray.
3:15 cracks me up every time!
Yeah, now I need a scene of Ed singing this with Frenchie playing his lute when he hears about Stede’s death. Meanwhile, Stede’s on the high seas searching for his boyfriend to get back together
You can tell at 2:00 that he realized he played a G major instead of an F# major cos he looks down to check haha. I love it.
This TV show is so underated.
Leggy bind and the episode about "The bird" are Legendary 😂😂 i cracked up watching and rewatching it.
This is a beautifully written song as far as chords and melody. I would love to listen to a non-joke version of this.
The first time I watched this I almost pissed myself when Jemaine did the rap. Best part!!
My favourite song from the series
I want this plated at my funeral.
So people know 'I had a budgie but it died and I liked pie.'
He's got a good voice
This show was BRILLIANT
this song made me cry =(
My co worker just quite from my new job and this is litterally me rn😢😭
Brilliant, just brilliant. Both seasons were just so special.
Best werewolf song I have ever heard!
i love rys darbby
Nathanael Channings But not enough to spell his name correctly
*WARNING*
Contains the best 3 seconds of video on youtube
This makes me want Stede with a beard even more next season on OFMD 😍😍
not sure why the best song by FOTC isn't ever on the related videos list, and by that i mean of course the lord of the rings themesong
Love this song!!!
I never realized that TH-cam has my favorite music - - ethnic avant garde classical jazz!
Omg I have that exact same paper shredder 😵
I’m in love with him
i
i lost myself in the leggy-leggy-leggy part
Fine. I'll watch flight of the Conchords

Thank you for saving me the trouble of trying to listen to that bit over and over and over.
“Whoa Leggy Blonde you got it goin on wanna see ya wearin’ that thong thong thong See ya gettin’ it on till the break of dawn Running around with your panties on…” Oh, Jemaine!! You rapscallion!!
A thing of beauty. Truly.
Rhys Darby was also on the short lived show- Shipwrecked that makes fun of lost. Give it a watch if u can find it
Bittersweet 🥹🙏👍❤️💕
These guys were just too funny. What a great show that was. ❤
Jermaine is the best part of this song!
This is a rad video!!! The copier part is epic!!!
I listen to this and cry when im drunk i used to have a leggy blonde
what a great show
Cheer up Murray don't let it get you down
i am so happy I stumbledupon these guys! loveee them haha
its raining outside while I am listening to this...perfect !
That's got to be one of the slickest move for closing the door behind you.
Girlfriend: You didn't cry at Titanic? You've never experienced true sadness.
Me, an intellectual:
Lol these people are always amazingly hilarious
Can I help you Murray?
No....
Oh man, that resonates so deeply.
this is the saddest song ever
Abt 13 yrs ago a leggy blonde from HR came n sat behind us ... one day she said she got a better job... I sang this in my head for weeks ... good byeee
Best music video ever!!! ❤️
the improperly-sized background on the new computer is the best bit in this whole story
totally delightful.
Why do I love this so much?!?!
At 2:41 Greg looks like he's fixin' to castrate somebody with those scissors.
lmfao 🤣
stationery solo is such a great idea
Still a better love story than twilight.
It’s so good
