Lol "YOUR MONKEY MIGHT NEED FEEDING, YOUR MONKEY MIGHT NEED FEEDING" Still randomly pops into my head, ten years later. Nice one Beardy

[@hazmatmonkey1914]

me every time im hungry tbh

[@williammoores276]

2020 through the pandemic but we going strong

[@Schmitzelhaus]

6 month into the pandemic by now..... .....yeah, have seen weirder shit on here. 🤣 Love it tho!

[@Th0rodin]

The art was already awesome, but seeing the difference of the minimalist setup to today's craziness is astounding :D

[@Perbear213]

Showed this to my dad. he said "He did that all, with his mouth, on the spot?" "Yup." "You live in a strange society when talent like this isn't popular."

[@StraySilver]

From dad to dad. Why not reciprocate?

[@perfectworldclub9761]

Wise man your dad!

[@Puschit1]

Awesome dad. My son is 4 years old and loved this, too. Especially the monkey parts of course. It's such a good thing that then internet preserves all of this and is so easily accessible (this video here is already 13 years old when I write this!). I don't have anything like this from my own childhood except memories.

[@kayabreaad]

This video was so entrancing to me as a kid, the visuals on the screen with all the sounds hes making there and then, and even now 13 years later its still such a good video. Honestly one of the most iconic parts of my childhood

[@minimoke8394]

Anyone who isn't common with the current music technology will not understand just how talented this guy is. He is making live loops and equalising and changing the effects live. He's pretty amazing.

[@Isaiahlikesutube]

the visuals kicked ass

[@tdjdk]

... too see every sample visualized by a small videoclip and seeing visual representations of them (for instance blurred, or rapidly repeated) - is absolutely beautiful!

[@UnseenDiversant]

I keep coming back to this. At least 371,264,152 of those 1,951,499 views are mine, mind you.

[@williammoores276]

Word

[@kaihoward7026]

Man 14 years ago yet it felt like just yesterday my family had this playing on the TV for the first time while we all did house work. Good times

[@mousefrust]

This was the shit back in 2009-11 in Secondary School.

[@UniQue1992]

The good old times when youtube was still great :D

[@bishop198666]

2017 beardyman is still the shit

[@cornflakescereal8152]

2021 beardyman is still the shit

[@soundman2002]

2021 September 14. Beardyman is Still Fire.

[@djbs222]

Haven't pulled this vid up in over a decade but it has lived in my head the entire time. Still slaps.

[@tanyatokarski2889]

discovered Beardyman last night at Nozstock festival.... simply cannot believe the talent.. was blown away as were the rest of the crowd. loved every minute

[@UltimaPowers]

The best live performer you will EVER see, this guy is in a league of his own. His DJ, JFB is superb too and together they put on the most amazing show that is never, ever the same twice! See them live as soon as you can!

[@rixxel1120]

2023 I´m still be here...

[@maksymkokoiev1541]

2019! still here

[@iAMiRex27]

Holy goddamn this is ten years old

[@lateearth2685]

This video has always boggled my mind. Dude is so on point.

[@WobblyTux]

It's almost 2023 - still rewatching!

[@NJoint]

11 years later and I still think this song is better than 80% of music published ever since

[@rappadapp]

Mr. Hopkins did a fantastic job on this!!!!

[@ProFoxMike]

Damn the visual explanation through the work of mr. hopkins was amazing. Could you please do something similar to visualize the capabilities of the Beardytron 5000 mkIII ???

[@donkeysausages]

I've kept coming back to this video for months now - puts me in a good mood

[@MichelleTheGamerGal]

Oh my gosh I'd listen to this all time in computer class in high school when it came out~ I'm so glad I re-discovered you!

[@infidelli]

Epic, do more !!!

[@DanielRojasSinger]

You, man, are crazy! (in a good way, I love your style!)

[@MrMylo5]

wow. this video is one of the best ive ever seen. amazing music, and even most amazing editing. GENIUS!

[@Axelitsu]

How in gods name could a single soul dislike this. This is brilliant on so many levels. I would give anything to see him live.

[@LunaMoonlight100]

Still can't believe he voiced Billy Joe Cobra

[@leahlichtenstein8319]

+LunaMoonlight100 i know right like this is really awesome he was amazing voiceing billy thought like it fit so well with that character i miss that show so much

[@Stonehawk]

this video predates Michael Jackson's passing. It's from a time when MySpace was still relevant o_o; since BEFORE KZbin switched from 4:3 aspect ratio to 16:9! GOD I'M FEELING OLD AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!

[@baroncalamityplus]

You and me both!

[@zeusynth]

Its still my fave vids since i watch this at 2009... Great

[@TheMetheman1]

Always come back to this absolutely epic beardy rendition 🎉🎉🎉😊

[@Eva-bk4gs]

I totally forgot about this video 😭🤣 I realize how weird this is and its 2020

[@SebastianKickSter]

2:42 < 33 ;D

[@Benjawathegreat]

Very nice Beardyman! This is one of my all time favorites.

[@claycarpenter8625]

I only heard about Beardyman in the last month and he blew my mind and to think how long ago this was and how the equipment has changed and how damn good it was. Respect

[@donkorvus]

Nope , he's not. He's much more than a beatboxer!

[@alexleon1911]

I still come back to this video after all these years

[@breezo2002]

Pure genius! I LOVE it! Can't stop watchin' it!

[@theonlyvanimal]

Beardyman, you are SUPER talented! I've spent the last week looking at various vids of yours. You're amazing! Keep it up, if you ever make it out to LA I'll be there.

[@ozzie5163]

effing awesome as always! The video editing was pretty awesome too.

[@NN-zg5bz]

Haven't watched this video in 14 years, but yes, I can immediately sing along. Such a formative video.

[@KroozaMkv]

Superb Beardyman! I love this video.. I wanna see more like this. Keep up the good work!

[@edpavez]

amazing editing on the video. and beardyman.... amazing, as usual!

[@gregorytrivera]

[@lilzig420]

That was so awsome Beardyman + great animations = 11/10. I want to see more vids like this! Keep up the good work Beardyman, you KICK ASS!

[@An_Arbitrary_Miscellany]

Still one of the best ever vids on KZbin. Immaculate.

[@medusasworldofstone]

my fav beardy man...he needs to make more like this with the animal sounds and all...love it

[@83Green83]

This is by faaar the best thing ive ever seen!! Awesome!! its soo perfectly done! I love it!! :D

[@InnerLeader]

Beardyman, you have taken beatboxing and electronic music to new heights, and in doing so you have brought back musical/technical mastery into digital music production. it's a pleasure to hear your performances. thank you

[@cenziclopedia]

this is truly a mix of genius!! the fast music making + the video editing is ridiculous..

[@maghdean]

A genius. Thanks for existing!

[@trupman]

This was the first video in 480p I saw on KZbin. The image quality felt unbeliavable back in those days :D

[@fobling2230]

that is amazing smileing the hole way through f---ing loving it

[@Sgalarza1619]

OMG!!! Love it!!!!! Love u Beardyman!!!!!!!!!!

[@telfordkrunkers]

[@josephhitchin7884]

2021 life sort of going back to normal and still going strong 💪🏽

[@azazelthefallen09]

Once again nothing but the best from beardyman!!!!!!

[@DominicPhillips72]

This is a cool departure. The live stuff is awesome but you might just crack the nut with ideas like this. Ace!

[@ravedog1980]

Ive seen this like 20 times already. amazing m8!

[@truffalo]

Watched him last night live @ the komedia, Brighton. He was amazing!! He also done a duet with flutebox.

[@noisywan]

beardyman is brilliant as usual and the video concept and editing is awesome. just masking those moving hands must have taken a lot of time.

[@SEECH7cornishgrimemovement]

everything was just amazing big up beardyman been onit for years

[@trixie974]

Omg !!!!!! Beautiful !

[@OOOLDSKOOOOOL]

freaking wicked man.. thaks for posting

[@kewballl]

that was genuinely amazing.

[@myvideoisnotgood]

best entertaining and beatboxing i´ve ever heard!! its a new level of dj´ing!!

[@adbeepat]

That was beyond incredible. My only complaint is just when it started flowing it cut short. I'd buy a full length album of this without even thinking about it. It's that good.

[@vonzkie13]

ur one of a kind dude!!!IDOLLLLL!!keep it up!!

[@fajnyjarek]

great sound and great edit !

[@heyitsmikegaming]

Beardyman you are incredible I want to see you live so badly

[@ABitOfTheUniverse]

DO NOT like the ad at the beginning of the video but I LOVE, LOVE Beardyman. This mix in particular is one of my favorites. I only wish the main course lasted a little longer. Big ups to my fellow Prime Mates!

[@LickMyDerp]

Soooo awesome!!!

[@abuyinGER]

Its really awesome what he does with the Korg Kaosspad3, Video editing is also very good!!!
