OK Go - Here It Goes Again Granbury High School

The Ok Go song Here is Goes Again done for talent show at Granbury Highschool. Done by Matt Bersi, Hieu Tran, Ian Fisher, Stephen Behrens.

[@TaylorForbes1996]

If they didn't win the competition it's a crime

[@wooaahh23]

How. How is this statement even true if you didn't see anything else. All they did was copy a routine that was already a thing.

[@rw8733]

Anybody know if they actually DID win?

[@Ragan31687]

Wooahh Just because it was already choreographed doesn’t mean doing the dance is easy. It took OK GO a dozen tries to get it correct. These guys did it live and nailed it the first try. It’s incredible what they did.

[@rw8733]

@@Ragan31687 Agree totally. Do you know if they won?

[@Ragan31687]

[@ThePipea8a]

Can we appreciate for a moment how fucking well those guys did?

[@jpaulz17]

+ThePipea8a They fucking killed it!

[@Ragan31687]

They did it better than OK GO. In the original the guy in the red pants slips a minute in just a bit. But these guys did it perfectly

[@ThePipea8a]

meragan12487 I like how they mimicked everything to perfection.

[@b0ngwat3rbrat]

+ThePipea8a yes

[@MelyssaAKASkittlez]

meragan12487 They didn't do it better than OK Go. These guy just imitated the band; the band was taught the moves by the singer's professional ballroom dancing sister. A tiny slip doesn't mean the students did it better. Don't get me wrong, they did great, but I doubt they were coached on technique like the band was.

[@tarastrong6875]

I'm impressed high schoolers could wrangle together 8 treadmills.

[@louie4916]

Tara Strong that's the first thing I though lol

[@TruthfulOctopus]

That's a really nice *ahem* not stolen at all comment

[@louie4916]

[@mynamesyourswhatsaimee5613]

Our school has a gym in it, instead of a sport hall. It has treadmills and swimming pools and all the equipment

[@ansleymartin6215]

I know that's to much for me I would never try to do that because one time my neighbor had one of those and I accidentally pressed the button to speed it up and fell and got in trouble so I will never do that again!!!!😲😲😲

[@odiemodie1]

Seven years later to this date, this vid has become legendary... the boys are grown up now and probably have moved on, but this epic performance of their high school youth remains forever for others to see years to come... where ever you guys are, Trend on boys... trend on! :)

Is it important to you to be anally precise? My original comment was posted to this month now March, 5 months earlier, last year, 2014... Do you know what month this originally came out? If I posted this in January of THIS YEAR, then your correction is valid.

[@colecarter2829]

odiemodie1 hey they became famous if you were wondering. Look up OK GO and they have vids with like 100 mil views.

[@Lario64]

I love how the guy in the black jacket pulls his jacket down just like Andy in the original video.

[@brandonbuchner1771]

They nailed every subtle thing in this video. It was perfect

[@princeepie4475]

They missed the part where Damien stumbles on a backwards turn step, I was waiting for it but he did it perfectly but then again at least I go to see what the routine would have looked like without thr stumble

[@rw8733]

They should do a 2019 remake.

[@L_M_C]

The attention to detail was sublime. Now if only the little fella could have shaved his head like Tim, it would have been perfect

[@jamesboulger8705]

You plan a presentation like this, God dammit you find those treadmills.

Facts

[@kazitox]

This was so well done, it's insane, even the small things like the jacket flip and the jaw dropping and even the occasional looking back at or towards the audience is all accounted for and done perfectly.

[@mirjambotman5652]

And even the styling (colours)

[@Ragan31687]

How about the fact they’re all now probably in their early 30’s. 😲

[@rw8733]

We need a 2023 version. 😅

[@graveyaardvark]

this may be a coincidence but they also got the sizes of the band members right

Every time I’m reminded of this song this is the video I come to watch. I hated school but this captures that pure joy of teenage friendship that’s one of the only fond memories I have of childhood. I’m so proud of them and so happy and ecstatic they pulled it off and it’s just so freaking pure. The amount of time they put in for this absolutely legendary performance was so worth it.

[@FightYourMother]

How do you even practice for this? You just happen to have eight treadmills on hand?

[@joselynm5634]

FightYourMother they probably used the schools treadmills. Most schools have gyms

[@allisona.6605]

Fair point. If that were the case, though, I wonder if the teens were able to access the machines without supervision. Since (US) schools are usually very careful about liability concerns, it's hard to imagine they would've knowingly let students use the machines that way, even after hours.

[@sarcasticat6979]

Forget liabilities, would a US highschool even have that many treadmills for student use? They're not exactly known for their generosity when it comes to funding for school equipment

[@YumeDream39]

My school has only 4 and one is never working properly

[@Paul1978]

Genuinely brilliant. To get that in one take is incredible. They must’ve rehearsed so much. The attention to every tiny detail and move is spot on. Feel so pleased for them watching it must’ve been great to be a part of.

[@secondchapter]

I still come back here from time to time to watch this. Just love the talent and the crowd enthusiasm. Best impersonation ever.

[@0manderijn0]

so many questions left unanswered! Did they win the talent show? How does the tall guy look so much like Damian? How did they get those threadmills to the stage? Did they get more respect from fellow students after this? I NEED THE ANSWERED AA

[@joshuareynolds2515]

back of the stage has large double doors that is how they go the treadmills on. one of them was our Valedictorian. They were all well liked in school. And i cannot honestly remember if a winner was declared but if one was it was them.

[@mrscoles100]

He’s the most enthusiastic, demonstrative with his movements and looks directly to the audience most of the time (therefore, connects more). He also sings, which seems to help him look the most at ease and convincing out of the 4. I think 2:05-2:40 is a good example of this.
