Best Song to Play on Drums - Blue Man Group The Forge

[@144Donn]

Sometimes you can feel the BMG can get old and tired. But, then they pull out something like this...and you become a fan all over again.

[@anonplayer8529]

Yeah, the occasional "freshness" probably appears when they put the old, past sell-by-date smurfs in the blender, mix it, pour the goo in a mold and after it sets they lift the new fresh one in front of the drums, and tell it "hit them".😊

[@timhodgetts1808]

I went to see them 25 years ago, not knowing what to expect...all this time later, I'm still blown away by them!

[@jamesmartin7142]

I don't know how many times I've watched and listened to this song. It still brings me to tears and gives me hope in my heart.

[@LeftoverSundriesMan]

Any group that can use the sound of something as mundane as a light flicking on as part of its instrumentation exhibits true ingenuity.

[@ScottInVa1760]

These guys have talent for performance art that simply can’t be added up. They are truly amazing.

[@LyndaEPostal]

Ya THINK!

[@Thetattedcat]

I could watch this over and over again. I love this performance ❤️❤️❤️ Today is 11/23/2024

[@MGG87]

You know, for a group that started as a bit of a joke, these guys do some incredible work. Don't ever stop being unique, and definitely don't stop being Blue.

[@akimlettner2984]

I vote for blue man group for the next super bowl half time show. Any one with me...

[@PiedmontRiffRaff]

Hell yeah!

[@noahhamilton9028]

I’m with you my friend! hell yeah buddy

[@krisnelson2786]

Yea, but it would have to be at night to get the whole effect...

[@StMyles]

The combination of the rhythm and theatrics just sent a chill up my spine…. Like I was back at the Las Vegas presentation 25 years ago.

[@paulsilva3346]

1 OF MY FAVORITE BLUE MAN MUSIC PIECES.!

[@timothyhinchliff5405]

If you get a chance to see these guys in concert, go for it. It's a lot of fun, the music is extraordinary, and you will definitely laugh your ass off.

[@galinabalaeva6322]

Молодцы ребята. От этой музыки аж мурашки по коже. Обожаю такую музыку. Побольше бы таких

[@ВаникИван]

Кто-то создаёт шедевры кистью или стеком, а вы просто палками , это грандиозно , великолепно, несравненно.

[@callicottjr]

25 years later, and they're still creating some of the most unique music the world has ever heard and seen.

Thanks for keeping me company in the Forge of life. Love you guys!

[@railinly610]

Quite possibly one of the most underrated and talented bands in the world.

[@slowpoke387]

I have to own this song, this personifies Blue Man perfectly. Back to their roots. This is a must have. Well done guys!!

[@hikeifulike]

Out of all the entertainers I've heard, this must be right up there at the top. Absolutely amazing music.

[@shaunweaver2107]

The Men of the Group of Blue never disappoint!

[@Rick-if5zb]

This old man he played one, he played knick knacks on my thumb... How many remember that old child's song? Now..... don't these guys play knick knack?? They use drum sticks or paddles on any thing and it sounds phenomenal. Mind boggling. I'm awestruck.🤪

[@Dikijagronom]

Зачетно, очень энергетично, заряжает хорошим настроением Спасибо, парни за творчество!

[@JonTheNativeSpeaker]

Music is the act of harmonious creation. Creation, is the essence of all things. When we achieve harmony with all things we too will become music in essence.

[@JasonDrennen]

To me this is true art. Since I was a kid I always loved the percussion of school bands. I think it's because I could feel it in my chest. As I got older I built me a nice car stereo system so I can still fill it in my chest. Even to the age now when I find a surface I have to make it into a rhythm. So I can truly feel their music and I love it.

[@edmundbrezinski8993]

I’ve seen the Blue Man Group several times. They never disappoint. I second for the 2025 Super Bowl half time show.

[@davey1dr169]

If I had a dollar for every time I've watched this video, I would be one rich monkey. I absolutely love the black light percussion and guitars in this video. Even the head movements of the sitting drummers leaves me in awe of their artistry. BMG are more than musicians, more than artists, they are a treasure on so many levels.

[@DrDuley]

Been to see them twice. Great experiences. Going again when they come to my town.

[@robe9467]

La guardo e ascolto tante e poi tante volte e non mi stanco mai, grandissimi!!!

[@enright13]

Wow. They are BACK, and belting things better than ever. What an absolutely stunning return to form. I nearly leapt up in the air at 2.43 - right, off for another listen. Or two. Or three...

[@jolenezacher9708]

I did too

[@thescottishpinecone]

[@yuti3897]

Drumming away on the strings of a piano... What an amazing sound this creates!

[@iansomerville1245]

That instrument is actually a hammered dulcimer. 😁

[@sinner8679]

That had the most retro grad feel I have ever felt and I absolutely loved every minute of it! I'm just sad that I JUST found this. Thankfully I know the repeat button already, and wear best buds over this masterpiece!!

[@revolutionaryprepper4076]

These guys are just pure musical genius. God bless the blue man group, their best video by far, amazing!

[@jasonkortink4785]

Blue man group is THE MOST STUNNING VISUAL AND SOUND LIKE nothing i have ever seen or heard before omg i love the striped players looks epic love you guys so much would LOVE LOVE LOVE TO SEE THEM LIVE

[@jaredhopper4701]

I could seriously break a knuckle, fracture my wrist or anything like that while i listen to this song. It makes me slam my desk for roughly three minutes and 30 seconds, give or take some for the breaks in the heavy beat. Love the Blue Man Group

[@ronaldyakobchuk3460]

That is so cool and so mysterious. You have my vote for the Superbowl halftime show!

[@Scorpio_1974]

I will never forget the first time I have seen them Blue Intel inside!

[@Ponlets]

gawd there is something so satisfying about this particular song in how they did it (not the video just the song) and it flows so well i love it

[@liveforlife2494]

Seeing Blue Man Group in Boston when I was in middle school was the highlight of my trip there. I've loved this piece for many years, and the feel-good vibes are infectious!

[@kinsmed]

Caught 'The Forge' on the NPR Tiny Desk Concert. Now it rides with me... everywhere...

[@MarkGardiner-g2y]

Yet again, these guys are tremendous. I only discovered them yesterday when I watched the "I feel love" performance with Venus Hum which instantly made me a big fan. I need to see these guys perform live

[@chillylizerd]

Oh wow

[@Rchina]

One of the best songs from blue man group…

Sensational song & music video🎉🎉🎉 So emotionally moved❤❤❤ Cannot stop replaying it🎉🎉 Thanks🤪🤪🤪💖💖💖

[@rdistinti]

Bravo: You have finally produced a complete work of art. A masterpiece. The music is beautiful and stands on its own. The choreography and visual effects are enchanting; the band and their black and white costumes are surreal and mesmerizing by the way they move/play. The editing is flawless and seamless shows what everyone is doing without spending too much time on one thing. The camera work is great; I fell like I among everyone like a ghost. I can listen/watch this over and over (4 times so far) IMHO: A welcome evolution from the comedy/percussion gags. Not that I don't enjoy them, its just that comedy routines are not as enjoyable to watch again. Also the camera work typically (not always) has the viewer far away, like a spectator in the back row (perhaps I was watching something that a spectator took, I will double check that)MOAR!!!

[@kellingc]

I love that they are performance artists. I had a feast for my eyes as well as something for my ears.

[@lindatrainor1650]

Bro, im attending the Christchurch one, Did they do there rock concert performance song?

Jim, no they didn't but there was plenty of variety. However, it was clear from some friends who saw it a couple of days after us that they vary things a bit so you never know your luck!

Anyone play TellTale's Tales from the Borderlands yet? I just finished it yesterday and holy fuck. Borderlands 3 will be amazing IF there are ties from TFTB and the other three. HOW DO WE GET BLUE MAN GROUP TO DO THE NEXT BORDERLANDS SOUNDTRACK?!!!???!??!?????
