am a Vietnam veteran. I love Gaga, but i love these guys equally. I remember how it was being deployed. I get it. I discovered this video years ago and I still listen to it cranked up. All my best to the cast that put this together, awesome. This video makes me want to jump in. Veterans day is this Friday, Nov. 11. To all the Veterans, love you all. "Stop calling, i don't want to dance anymore." Keep on rocking in the Free world, people
Every once in a while I look for this video because it always brings a smile to my face. You guys are so awesome! Hope you and all of your buddies are well. This is a gift that keeps on giving even after all of these years. Thank you!
I was there in Kandahar when this was made by the maintenance guys in my unit. Upon returning home,at the battalion Ball, they played this, andmy man did his dance on the table. :-)
I never get tired of watching this. These guys were extremely creative to have put this together complete with the appropriate wardrobe. Outstanding guys; this veteran loved it!
As a Retired SFC I must say that you guys are awesome for putting this video together. This is one excellent example of "Team Building". Best of luck to you all and I hope that you are home safe and soon. Army Strong!
I've been watching this since it was released. I love it. It is my happy place. When I need to smile, I watch it again. Thank you for much for all that you do and all that you are.
To this day on the rare occasion this song comes on the radio this video pops into my head with the thicc fella doing his side to side pelvic thrusts. Still cracks me up just like when I saw this way back when you guys had posted it.
You guys are totally awesome. Every single one of you (though the guys around 2:40 were my personal favourites). Anyone can tell you had fun making this vid, and you deserve that :D
Yep. It sucks to be where they are and doing what they do, and if some of my tax dollars go to pay for morale-raising silliness for our troops, I'm good with that,
Saw this when it 1st came out. I laughed so hard & watched it a bunch of times. My beloved is a VietNam veteran. I'm so proud of our guys. Hadn't seen it in years, but was delighted to find it today & laughed just as hard. God bless all of you who served. Some of us know, no matter they were just told recently, that we most certainly do have troops engaged in active combat. The liars know no shame.
I can't stop watching this. It's wonderful on so many levels. But the best thing is that it reminds us that our troops are funny people who are far away from home. I really hope Lady Gaga decides to perform for the troops... or at very least, cast all of these dancing soldiers in her next video.
For the record, whenever I'm having a bad day, I watch this. It cheers me RIGHT up. I think I watched it like 400 times when my husband was deployed, so thank you, not only for this fantastic video, but also for your service.
first off from one vet to another, Thank you guys for your service! & to be honest I would rather see you guys blowing steam off making silly & funny videos than letting the pressure of the experiences get to you. Another vet friend of mine recently lost his fight with PTSD. If this is what it takes to kept thing together then do it & damn what any one else says!!
Kurosaki Anna Thank God!!! I always wondered and hoped. I watch both of these all the time! I love Melrosewood. I am hooked on that song funny I know. Thank you!!!
The most original video I have seen in a long time. I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when it started because I would have aspirated. Keep them coming fella's.
YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING. You have officially made my boring working night. You are making Afghanistan a brighter place. Gaga will love you when she gets her hands on this. xoxo
All the girls at my job are in love with you. Thank God we are still making heroes. This video never gets old -- too bad MTV doesn't show music anymore. Thanks for the video and make sure you all come home safe and sound. Oh, and make it real soon, too.
Every time i hear this video it reminds me that we're all humans and sometimes we need to set aside our differences and live life. I salute these soldiers for taking time to make this video as they get little RR in the war zone. So the next time you see a soldier be kind and say "thanks" because it could be their last appreciation they hear from someone that's protecting our freedom and liberty.
If I remember, their commanding officer said when they had time between making music vid, they do occasionaly worked on the units vehicles. Great effort, thanks for the smiles.
Came across this when it first came out & after all this time I still flippin' LUV it!!! My favorite part is when tinsel-yellow-duct-tape-guy sings "Not that I don't like you, I'm just at a par-ty". LOL ... Love his moves ;) p.s. Takes real men to make such a video. Where ever you guys are, please know that we support you. Stay safe.
I love it! I could see my son doing something like it. He said it gets boring sometimes and can have a lot of tension that you can feel. And they see a lot of things you know. They deserve more fun than we do.
Absolutely spectacular! This video has gone incredibly viral (for an EPIC win, as noted many times before) and you'll probably be getting a phone call from some network wanting you on their morning show here in the states! Nice job....
I love this video! I remember watching on the news and still this day i laugh my butt off. I love the dance the guy does that funny dance at 1:06... I do it all the time thanks to you. LOL :D
you guy's are awsome, not @ singing or dancing but just in general ! land of the free because of the brave. thank you so verry much for puting your life on hold and answering the call .
Thanks for the comments, we all made it home safe.
Glad to hear it! This has given me many smiles over time, especially the red-headed guy! He's kinda cute. LOL
What's that black guys name?????????
Aaron Melcher Nice
You guys were awesome glad that you made it home safe! 😊
+Aaron Melcher Got the be honest - I miss Farah. Seems like yesterday when we were all there.
Nine years later, still listening and smiling ⚘

9 years later, and this still makes me laugh. I love these guys, and I sincerely hope they all made it to home. I hope they all have happy lives.
I love this..it never gets old and chubby guy with ginger hair: Damn, you are gorgeous! :)
Marie Witzen love him 😍
2021 and I still watch from time to time. Melcher, I hope you're happy and well.

Who’s here from 2019? I just randomly thought of this video, this was hilarious when I was 9
This video was a huge motivator in my decision to impulsively join the army four years ago.
After all these years, still my fave video on YT
Absolutely one my most favorite videos in the history of ever
2015 and still enjoying this vid! love you guys!
It's 2013, and I'm still rewatching this - it just never gets old.
I've been watching this since it was released. I love it. It is my happy place. When I need to smile, I watch it again. Thank you for much for all that you do and all that you are.
Are you kidding me!?! This is FABULOUS!!!! Please keep em coming!! I hope GaGa sees this. Thanks guys and stay safe!
I love how their faces remain so serious during the dance routines
OMG, you guys released this on my birthday. IM SO HONORED, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING YOU GUYS ARE DOING OVER THERE!
Gives new meaning to "make love not war" ⚘⚘
Santo dios, ahora lo vuelvo a ver, me dan unas risas como la primera vez, muy buena
This is absolutely hysterical. That guy swinging his hips is totally awesome. His faces while dancing are amazing.
To this day on the rare occasion this song comes on the radio this video pops into my head with the thicc fella doing his side to side pelvic thrusts. Still cracks me up just like when I saw this way back when you guys had posted it.
The fact that my future brother in law is in this makes me laugh so much. I can’t wait to play this at their wedding
Dude, that's awesome!!
Did the wedding happen yet and did you play it?
Who's your brother in law? Who got married?!
@@koryroberts3182 Sean Kullman
@@ReverendMeat51 the wedding did happen but I didn’t get to play it 😭
You guys are totally awesome. Every single one of you (though the guys around 2:40 were my personal favourites).
Anyone can tell you had fun making this vid, and you deserve that :D
sweet merciful baby jesus, what did i just watch? quite possibly the most entertaining thing i've seen.
Still one of favorite videos on TH-cam
Greatest use of my tax dollars ever. :3
Yep. It sucks to be where they are and doing what they do, and if some of my tax dollars go to pay for morale-raising silliness for our troops, I'm good with that,
wickednwyld I know right? Their so cute hahah I love this
I tell you what you get deployed and see how you keep from going bat shit crazy these guys has got to have some king of stress relief
Josh Sizemore - You first, asswipe.
As a former OIF Marine, I've gotta admit, these Army bros have got some sweet moves. Loved this then, love it now
i love this. hahaha giant machine gun in the background and they were just laughing and acting like freaks.
Probably the best video ever made.
Always makes me smile. Love the big guy especially. Good work boys xx
It's been ten years and this is the most relatable video I've ever seen.
Deployment is awesome
Still waiting for the finished version. And it's still probably the best video on youtube.
Wherever you guys are today love you respect you and thank you for your service
Who’s coming back to this video in 2024?
👈I was there when it was made OEF 10-11 and it got me through back then lol
Saw this when it 1st came out. I laughed so hard & watched it a bunch of times. My beloved is a VietNam veteran. I'm so proud of our guys. Hadn't seen it in years, but was delighted to find it today & laughed just as hard. God bless all of you who served. Some of us know, no matter they were just told recently, that we most certainly do have troops engaged in active combat.
The liars know no shame.
My husband was in Iraq when this vid came out, lol he sent it to me, I love it, Like if you still watch this in 2015!
2016! The ginger guy is so cute!
Agreed!
2017. It's in my favorites list.
Still watch it in 2018. Gotta love Melcher!
This still awesome to watch,,,,,👍
I so want to learn those moves starting around 1 minute. toooo cute
I can't stop watching this. It's wonderful on so many levels. But the best thing is that it reminds us that our troops are funny people who are far away from home.
I really hope Lady Gaga decides to perform for the troops... or at very least, cast all of these dancing soldiers in her next video.
Work it,Big daddy! I hope he has sons exactly like him!
For the record, whenever I'm having a bad day, I watch this. It cheers me RIGHT up. I think I watched it like 400 times when my husband was deployed, so thank you, not only for this fantastic video, but also for your service.
This video, these men, they move me. Brave, intelligent, honorable men.
This is EPIC!! Best remake I've ever seen! SO funny-kudos guys and THANK YOU for your service!
Hey, say what you will, that army solider can DANCE! RAWK on!
first off from one vet to another, Thank you guys for your service! & to be honest I would rather see you guys blowing steam off making silly & funny videos than letting the pressure of the experiences get to you. Another vet friend of mine recently lost his fight with PTSD. If this is what it takes to kept thing together then do it & damn what any one else says!!
Anyone know these guys? Are they ok? Did they make it home? I sure hope so.
+Shawna Graham I know i'm a bit late, but yes, they all got home alright, thanks!
Kurosaki Anna Thank God!!! I always wondered and hoped. I watch both of these all the time! I love Melrosewood. I am hooked on that song funny I know. Thank you!!!
No problem. :P
@Grace Devine very cool!! Thanks for the reply!! So happy he came home! 🙏🙏
The most original video I have seen in a long time. I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when it started because I would have aspirated. Keep them coming fella's.
Too bad this isn't the offical video.
lol. Better than the original for sure!
This is the maybe the most amazing thing i have ever seen on the internets. It made my day! Thanks, guys--Stay safe!

MELCHER!!!!!!! it's brown, whats up!!!!!

This is my favorite video, in the existence of ever. You guys are my heroes. Seriously. :)
I don't care how old this video is, it still gets me every time I watch it.
YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING. You have officially made my boring working night. You are making Afghanistan a brighter place. Gaga will love you when she gets her hands on this. xoxo
THIS IS FANTASTIC!!!!!!!! The red-headed guy who danced alone, has FANTASTIC MOVES, i kept rewinding that, lol. LOVE THIS VID!!
I came back to watch it again! Love the Military! Especially my compatriots in the Army and the Air Force. Missing it.
I love this! Thanks guys, for all that you do and for this hilarious video.
I am the nanny of 4 and they quite enjoyed this video! God bless and thanks for the giggles!
All the girls at my job are in love with you. Thank God we are still making heroes.
This video never gets old -- too bad MTV doesn't show music anymore.

This is the best commercial I have ever seen for Steam.

Still came back to this.... it's 2021 🤣🤣🤣
Every time i hear this video it reminds me that we're all humans and sometimes we need to set aside our differences and live life.

So the next time you see a soldier be kind and say "thanks" because it could be their last appreciation they hear from someone that's protecting our freedom and liberty.
Nicely done, boys. I think you've restored more faith in the military in under four minutes than most administrations achieve in four years.
You guys are too funny! Thank you for your service, this video, and for being goddamn awesome!!
If I remember, their commanding officer said when they had time between making music vid, they do occasionaly worked on the units vehicles.
Great effort, thanks for the smiles.
2017 and it's still in my favorites list.
You guys are fabulous and stupendous. Thank you so much for this. It's great.
I find this oddly compelling... I've watched several times and I'm still delighted. Thank you so much for creating this.
2017 and still bawling while watching this. awesomeness... great choreography guys
This is awesome. Definitely the greatest thing I've seen in awhile.
Hysterical and probably a much needed release of tension.
Came across this when it first came out & after all this time I still flippin' LUV it!!! My favorite part is when tinsel-yellow-duct-tape-guy sings "Not that I don't like you, I'm just at a par-ty". LOL ... Love his moves ;) p.s. Takes real men to make such a video. Where ever you guys are, please know that we support you. Stay safe.
I LOVE THIS!! GO GO GAGA!!
Seriously, I think this is a great way for these guys to relieve stress and have fun.
Just remembered this video, still a classic 10 years later
I love this video. Especially the guy dancing by himself. CRACKS ME UP! Thanks guys!
I love it! I could see my son doing something like it. He said it gets boring sometimes and can have a lot of tension that you can feel. And they see a lot of things you know. They deserve more fun than we do.
This is so awesome! It's great to see people not taking themselves too seriously.
I think this may be the best tribute video I've ever seen.
Still loving this!
I love you guys. Thanks for this and all the service you've done out there. ^_^
Absolutely spectacular! This video has gone incredibly viral (for an EPIC win, as noted many times before) and you'll probably be getting a phone call from some network wanting you on their morning show here in the states! Nice job....
I love that these people are guarding my country. Keep up the good work. you all will be in my prayers. God Bless you

OMG I love the one guy who dances by himself. If it had just been that I would be happy.
:)
