I can’t even imagine how long this took. Firs you gotta hire a band for the background music, singers for backing vocals, a producer to mix the song, a camera and lighting crew, lets not forget about all of the actors, locations and sound stages, and wardrobe for the actors, just so much stuff I can’t even wrap my head around it. I know this is common for films and tv, but seeing where Jon started, it’s really cool to see. Big props to everyone, so proud of Jon, seeing how far he’s come, etc.
The golden times of youtube are (probably) over. But this guy was one of the big great ones who made the platform so fcking great. It was people doing this for fun and not for the money. He hasnt even placed ads before the videos ❤
@@prpwnage9296 tbh this is probably good. this is drawing attention to the artisticly bankrupt music created just to gain radio play and make money. finding this grating could mean you dont like phoned-in music.
***** You for get about all the money he makes from these youtube videos. There's a reason the more famous people become on Yt the high their production values go. It's because they make that money and way more back.
This is a really great song. But I wonder how many people took the time to really give it an introspective. The video reflects the song, which is summed up by the final lines; about how the music industry is dying, but commercialism only grows stronger day by day. But the "character" singing the song mentions about how he needs money and lost his house. So it's also a statement about the economy. He's pleading with corporations to use the song for any sort of ad campaign. So there is a necessity for cash. Let's put a pin in that and save it for a moment. Throughout the video, as the various company mascots begin to form a dance party around the band, we see more of the "Suicidal Hotline" guy. At first glance, it would seem a little out of place. Sure, one could argue late night television tends to show those sorts of commercials, but all of the other campaigns are common and happy-go-lucky. So bringing back the pinned concept from before, the "Suicidal Hotline" guy represents, I think, the "singer's" (obviously not Jon Lajoie, but the character he's portraying in the song's), depression and desperation. The idea is "If I can't make the money, if I don't make it. I might as well kill myself." I'm not asking anyone to support that notion or agree with it, but it's very clear that's what the 'character' is feeling. But even if one were to put all of their figurative eggs in one figurative basket, and end it all if things don't work out, the world will keep spinning. Life goes on with or without you. And the companies that you're begging to support you or even just pay attention, will likely just use your death to make themselves even more money. And that's why after the guy shoots himself, you've got "Flo" standing over his corpse selling life insurance. Despite this being intended as a comedy track, I feel like there's enough irony and poignant commentary to make this a legitimate criticism of the music industry, commercialism, and Hollywood. I mean there's a whole wealth of concepts I have not even touched on such as the chords and drum beats used to play the song. This song is absolutely genius. As another commentator said below, I can not even fathom how there are any dislikes to this song. The only valid reasoning would be if people saw through the upbeat tempo and saw the hopelessness and pointlessness of a life in the industry. Viewers should remember that Likes and Dislikes are for quality and concept, not simply how it made you feel emotionally. Bravo, Jon. Bravo.
While it's a great song, the fact that this song was released on TH-cam shows that the industry has changed. The internet basically gave everyone access to pick and choose what they wanted, and you know what? People want that ability more than anything else. So from napster grew Spotify and Pandora, and while those companies pay they artists, they pay them millionths or thousandths of a cent per play, again, set by the new market. People know they can still get it for free but, hey, I'll pay out of a little guilt I feel for basically stealing so here's some money and now everyone is happy, supposedly.Beyond that, most of the money comes from ads, and given the actual success rates of online ads, it's not surprising that the advertising doesn't pay as much per play as they used to. People still buy CD's and Vinyl is making a resurgence, but it's too late. Most of the record stores (except for a few niche, popular ones) disappeared, and ticket sales will always be good, if the band is good. Now. That all being said, in order for an industry to be 'dying' it has to actually be failing, and it's not. It could easily be argued that the music industry exploded with the advent of TH-cam and MySpace, but we are talking about local bands, and independents thriving, not necessarily big name labels (though most do through their stars anyway). What's happening is that some artists are getting paid less, and really, that's ok. Because overall music is growing and open to more of an audience than ever before as well. Edit: One last note. Merch sales can now be totally done by the band independently if they need/want, and take the middleman producer out - providing more funds to the band.
While I agree with you on some points, the music industry is not dying. It is changing. Instead of CDs and Records it's now mp3's. Just how the media is not dying it is just changing, from TV to Internet.
>Came down to see if anyone else saw the suicide guy and noticed him appearing throughout the video where he didn't belong. >Read that >Said, "OOOOOOOHHHHHH. THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW." >Realized you were my hero.
aaah, interesting! that idea's supported by the "drugs you didn't know you should be taking", showing that perhaps depression is more prevalent because of the rampant commercialism, perhaps linking it in to mass shooting victims very interesting ideas!
Your videos are so goooooood! I followed your artistic the evolution so far and it's a pity you do not publish anything on youtube anymore.... I was trilled how professional your music videos became.... Hope to see you on TH-cam again!
I'm disappointed at how many people are belittling this gentleman in their comments like he is not supposed to be this talented unless he is Robert DeNiro or somebody super famous. WTF? He is clearly professional in what he does. Stop downplaying people, and acting so surprised at what they do. It reeks of jealousy and a lack of respect. Jon Lajoie is excellent and has great videos. End of story.
To all the people claiming they want the "old jon" back, he did this same sort of theme with "Pop Song". go look it up! it was just as epic as this one is. I love all of his stuff!
Actually, NOFX did this theme first with "Please play this song on the radio". But that song WAS tongue-in-cheek.. not to say NOFX didn't sell out too in the end. Jon's just in a mid-life crisis and took the easy way out to manipulate the masses. It's called "the Henery Winkler syndrome". One day you're cool daddy-o Arthur Fonzarelli, the next your Mr. Winkler making children's books for your 3 kids.
Val Valiant Five that song is super old, and sounds nothing like this one.... oO he doesnt seem to be going through a midlife crisis - and frankly, nor has wrinkler ever seemed like that either.
I keep thinking Jon just forgets about his TH-cam channel, but when he comes out with something like this and you can see a lot of time and set up and effort has been put into it you can understand why he can't upload very often, but when he does it's always amazing
The amazing thing about Jon Lajoie is that he could turn a totally commercial musician. He has a great voice and a band, plus his Hip Hop stuff cannot be beat lol..
This is the best song I have seen you do and I have watched them all. All industries are dying, not just music, thanks for making us laugh. We need it. And appreciate it.
what would be really dope is if a company actually used the chorus in their commercial and changed the words to "We used this song in our commercial, We used this song in our commercial. They gave me money, and are using it to sell something. We used this song in our commercial"
Absolute best and most brilliant line: The music industry's dying, But consumerism is thriving. I weep for our future, but at least Mr. Lajoie brings some laughs to cut the pain.

They were squeezing red liquids in peoples' mouths. At 3:16 the doctor is putting something in the skater dude's mouth. I'm assuming it was an editing blooper. :)
This is seriously one of the best and cleverest videos on TH-cam, from the song (which is pretty good and enjoyable even without having awareness of the message) to the realization of the video ("your brand here" - brilliant!). Amazing!
i would like to thank you john for being in my teenage years really helped out with focusing on something different than depression, forever the best and ahead of his time!
Damn John, you've come a long way. I still remember when I first subscribed to you after listening to Everyday normal guy. It's still kind of hard to believe that you've achieved this much. Keep it up man
Some things have changed since then, but I still make pretty good spaghetti sauce, my parents are still really nice people, and I'm still pretty good at making paper planes... Motha#%$@!!!
geterdonein01 Well I commented early when the video was uploaded, so that might be a plausible explanation. Either way, I like the fact that a popular youtuber like Jon still replies to his fans. It's cool to see and not many popular youtubers do that.
He's not only doing The League. He writes, produces, directs, and does soundtracks for a lot of small other things. He has to be super busy, been subscribed to him for a long time and I'm just glad he still puts out hilarious and genius material. :)
+Pickledoonker Kool aid Not all that weird, is it? I'd say this is about as serious as MC Vagina, he's just put some work down on actually making a song. Besides, noone can be as deliberately shitty as MC Vagina without being pretty good.
I think Jon Lajoie has been a great comedy mind/talent for quite some time now!!! I guarantee you that this song will be used within the next year by some major corporation trying to tell you they are better than the other peoples out there because 'They Care about the Consumer". Also, his house isn't in foreclosure people... he made a ton of money on selling his Math Equations... ;-)
to any company who actually does use this song in one of your comertials. i WILL by your pruduct. so will all these people who thumbed up this comment... (we gotchu bro)
I gotta get me some Insurance Insurance. This made me realize that I need assurance to be ensured that I'm insured against all my insurances contained in my insurance, for sure.
The irony of the song is that this video looks like it has pretty good production value. Must have cost a lot of money. GEE JON, MAYBE THAT'S WHY YOU'RE LOSING YOUR HOUSE?!
The production value on this video is insane, definitely worth the multiple frame-by-frame re-watching :) On top of that, all the "your brand here" brands are real-world recognizable. Goes without saying, great song too, and has all the clichés. The clapping, chimes, banjo/uke, upbeat, sing-along part with electric guitar and some brass - perfect. Suddenly, I want to buy cat insurance insurance.
Jon does not release new videos often but unlike many of the old youtubers, he manages to maintain a very high quality standart, I'll give him at least that. Still funny as ever.
Angry at how brilliant this is. Damn.
it's almost scientific... :/
hey Jack, your here to? ;)
I know right, it's great!
jaaaaaaaack
omg Jack, stop using other channels to boost your own
The amount of work put into this video is unbelievable.

***** YOUR THE ONE WHO TOOK MY NAME I WAS GONNA USE
To all the people: no one is allowed to use this song without Jon's permission.
I can’t even imagine how long this took.
Firs you gotta hire a band for the background music, singers for backing vocals, a producer to mix the song, a camera and lighting crew, lets not forget about all of the actors, locations and sound stages, and wardrobe for the actors, just so much stuff I can’t even wrap my head around it. I know this is common for films and tv, but seeing where Jon started, it’s really cool to see. Big props to everyone, so proud of Jon, seeing how far he’s come, etc.
Not to mention all the graphic designs and costumes for the different "generic brands".

Jon has really risen up. I remember watching his earlier vids and asking why he wasn't famous yet. He's really gotten a lot done
Taco
Not only is he famous... he is very *super famous*, and a lot of people know he exists!
And you are not so are shit
xXxluigi1122xXx He is genius lol
xXxluigi1122xXx He used to be a baby. It's hard to rise out of that.
If I hear this song in an actual commercial, I am absolutely going to buy whatever crap they are trying to sell me!
Me too, I hope it's for something I want.
Cullen Newsom i hope they use for whatever im hungry for right at that time. I didnt even know i was hungry for some KCF
genius ... that's what Jon is. The way he analyzed the marketing and it's destructive effect on artistic creativity is amazing. Nice job.

This is legitimately a really catchy song lol
Right !!!
Rather like how "Pop 101" by Marianas Trench was crushing it at being the very thing it was satirizing!
that's kind of the point
It's got the Pachelbel chords just like Radio-Friendly Song. Literally the catchiest way to write music for some reason.

i would like to thank you john for being in my teenage years really helped out with focusing on something different than depression, forever the best and ahead of his time!
I just got an idea! 50 different companies should chip in and buy a 4 minute ad slot in the super bowl for this video
50 different companies should buy a full ad each with this song in it and make it play all the damn time.
Would be better than the latest halftime show
U had tha same I deal 3 years before me
I miss you Jon Lajoie! Please post in 2015
Lisztomaniac Or 2017 lol
@@megasonicgeo or 2019 lol
@@bambooflute2589 well now hes got a non comefic band called wolfie's just fine
Damn John, you've come a long way. I still remember when I first subscribed to you after listening to Everyday normal guy. It's still kind of hard to believe that you've achieved this much. Keep it up man
Some things have changed since then, but I still make pretty good spaghetti sauce, my parents are still really nice people, and I'm still pretty good at making paper planes... Motha#%$@!!!
JonLajoie I do love me some spaghetti sauce.
You must have donated $100,000 to Jon's kickstarter to get him to comment on your post!
geterdonein01 Well I commented early when the video was uploaded, so that might be a plausible explanation. Either way, I like the fact that a popular youtuber like Jon still replies to his fans. It's cool to see and not many popular youtubers do that.
This guy used to be one of my favorite people on youtube but I forgot about him.
he's on the league now
upbeatbacteria Yeah, I don't watch that. He has the smallest role on it anyway even though he is the funniest person and I am sure the most popular.
The thing is that unlike most famous youtubers, he barely make videos. Like, 4 per year?
Luiz AMN Too bad he doesn't make more.
He's not only doing The League. He writes, produces, directs, and does soundtracks for a lot of small other things. He has to be super busy, been subscribed to him for a long time and I'm just glad he still puts out hilarious and genius material. :)
Le jour où je verrai cette chanson dans une pub, je pleurerai des larmes de bonheur
God I love Jon Lajoie
I love smart videos.
He's back!
YES
It's been too long!
you have to say "He's back, BITCHES!!"
Mirko Acquaviva You can't spell bitches without... VAGINA !!
I'm coming back to watch this after a long time and I wish I can give it another thumbs up.
another hit Jon!
Wait is this actually the guy who sang show me your genitals.
Yep
+Jose RicoTacoNachoQuesadillaMandillaJones NIce name.
+PiTau hah wildcat
+Pickledoonker Kool aid Not all that weird, is it? I'd say this is about as serious as MC Vagina, he's just put some work down on actually making a song. Besides, noone can be as deliberately shitty as MC Vagina without being pretty good.
+Ethan Cerwinski you wouldn't believe the great serious music he is releasing now hahahaha
Jon made a video? YAY!
another one of jon's masterpiece.
Welcome back Jon. Great as always.
If I had a commercial that needed a song, this would be my FIRST choice!
IKR. Balls to the wall epic :D
I think Jon Lajoie has been a great comedy mind/talent for quite some time now!!! I guarantee you that this song will be used within the next year by some major corporation trying to tell you they are better than the other peoples out there because 'They Care about the Consumer". Also, his house isn't in foreclosure people... he made a ton of money on selling his Math Equations... ;-)
This guys is brilliant all over....His songs are awesome in the most catchy way! man he's good!
to any company who actually does use this song in one of your comertials. i WILL by your pruduct. so will all these people who thumbed up this comment... (we gotchu bro)

I noticed that. Spell check maybe? It was invented for a reason.
I gotta get me some Insurance Insurance. This made me realize that I need assurance to be ensured that I'm insured against all my insurances contained in my insurance, for sure.
Are you sure?
Absolutely not. I could use some extra insurance for assurance
+thebroskeez You sure now? XD
Luis Santiago Only partially.

And now you have the "Catchy Song" in the Lego Movie 2. You made it 😂
Happy 2 years!
i remember when you started on youtube -tear- look how far you have come man, Proud.
Wow this song is really catchy... lol
I know right
Curious Wars use it for your commercial
***** If I ever choose to make a business I will no joke!
Curious Wars He is a talented musician/songwriter as well as comic, no doubt about it.
+Curious Wars Yep, that's the point.

True that.
Under the creative commons license you may use it as long as no profit is made off the production it is used in.
***** use this song on a dota2 clip 8D
Fancy seeing you here.
ahead of its time
Great song. Very catchy.
What's it promoting? Whatever it is, I want three of them.
I got the impression it promotes abortions.
... Three, you said?
The irony of the song is that this video looks like it has pretty good production value. Must have cost a lot of money.
GEE JON, MAYBE THAT'S WHY YOU'RE LOSING YOUR HOUSE?!
I'm still intrigued by what this man did in a moment "every day guy" Which I think is the best rap song in the world
Never change Jon! You're Awesome!
🎤💗🎸
Epic video well worth the wait. Welcome Back, Jon!!
Please Jon, come back, youtube is not the same without you!
5 years later and just as amazing.
I keep coming back to Jon Lajoie songs. He is such a genius. Jon, if you can hear me: I love you.
Haven't seen JonlaJoie in a while. Good to see their still funny
Thank you for making me smile!
I'm never happier than when I see Jon's got a new video
Yeah me too
The production value on this video is insane, definitely worth the multiple frame-by-frame re-watching :) On top of that, all the "your brand here" brands are real-world recognizable.
Goes without saying, great song too, and has all the clichés. The clapping, chimes, banjo/uke, upbeat, sing-along part with electric guitar and some brass - perfect. Suddenly, I want to buy cat insurance insurance.
Jon does not release new videos often but unlike many of the old youtubers, he manages to maintain a very high quality standart, I'll give him at least that.
Still funny as ever.
