[@Mike_nym]

Ska Tune Network do you play all the instruments and the drums? Talent

[@SkaTuneNetwork]

Mike O'Rourke drums are Midi hahaha but I can play drums. Everything else is always 100% me unless you see someone else shredding

[@seanwilson6690]

I really enjoy your stuff! It reminds me of my carefree skankin’ days back in the ‘90s. Keep doing what you do!

[@price412]

I found you from a Reddit post! I've been sharing everything of yours lately because it's so dang good. Especially that Pokemon cover you just released!

[@Koopakid917543]

This song was made for a ska cover

[@evanparker]

it really works amazing

[@lukelandrunner7915]

It is a ska song

[@nathanbaldridge2572]

I appreciate the TMBG dance moves.

[@numberq1134]

He built a ska empire out of Some crazy garbage called the blood of the exploited pop music Now we've overcome their shyness and we're calling him our highness, as the world screams: OMFG A TMBG COVER!!!

[@pigeon_the_mighty]

GOOD reference

[@imnotnuggets]

"I like to play the drums" Opens midi track

[@theangryginger7582]

Yeah but this song is about a drum machine, tmbg is a duo with no drummer. I think they said it was about their drum machine

[@theangryginger7582]

@Buddy Tanis there's a drummer in the video but I remember hearing something about it being about a drum machine

[@wfd87]

@@theangryginger7582 it's an interpretation from here i believe: tmbw.net/wiki/Interpretations:Doctor_Worm

[@music4thedeaf]

the drums are the spine of music

[@TestSubjectMacHoshi]

*you hear Marty Beller crying in the distance*

[@chunkybois6932]

a cover of blister in the sun by violent femmes would be amazing.

[@AuntieCreed]

YES!!

[@Reece_Hart]

I'd also throw Kiss Off into the suggestion list

[@MisterAppleEsq]

Hell yeah. They Might Be Giants is possibly the greatest band around. I love the extra horn parts you added.

[@sheenthisma7103]

This combines the only two things I listened to for a good half a decade of my life: They Might Be Giants and ska music.

[@Schmuckubus]

Local musical genius single-handedly resurrects ska and is an actual worm

[@evanfmc]

this is a banger! please do any song off of Flood!!!

[@CalamariAtari]

That solo has a little New Orleans feel to it! I love it

[@arcturus8896]

i wish that when people left a dislike on something they'd have to leave a reason why because the concept completely escapes me on why anyone could dislike this

[@JudahDeNose]

I've had this song stuck in my head for weeks

[@NSB0953]

Damn. Rainy tired day after work turned into something fun and delightful. Thanks man, gonna fish through some of your vids now.

[@theactorjohnlarroquette]

HOW DID I MISS THIS??? I legit made a fb status tonight “if u hate ska unfriend me” after getting teary eyed watching ur ska against racism video for a third time. Then completely unrelatedly cos it’s one of my favorite songs And it came up in a conversation I searched “dr. Worm cover” you played with my friend Matt Hull and it made my year. My dad played in one of the classic Boston ska groups, Beat Soup, and ska is a quintessential part of who I am, despite also being a pretentious hipster muso. Ska is life. Ska is unity. Ska is love. I love this and you put a huge smile on my face.

[@bluemask6361]

literally got chills reading the video title bc of how excited i am by the concept the title presented to me as always, Ska Tune Network delivers!!!!!!

[@rlbgoomba]

I couldn't have been more than like 5 or 6 and remember watching a music video for this song on Kablam. Probably what got me into this kind of music nowadays.

[@MCSmally]

this is my favourite cover potentially ever, I listen to this several times a week

[@googleguy-ft8xh]

My all time favourite song.

[@D0Gdidthemath]

Really nice!

[@lennibizzle]

when you pointed to yourself and said "my friend Jeremy" i busted out laughing. this is a great cover!!

[@ashtondoesathing]

My favorite band put with my favorite genre of music. I am very pleased.

[@MangoTurtlenova]

Holy SHIT dude! This is literally the song that got me to first pick up trumpet when I was like 9. This was like mainlining a line of nostalgia cut with serotonin

[@AuroraStoneOfficial]

This made me smile big time

[@Psyched_Crow]

This isn't the video I expected but the one I wanted and needed.

[@NouveauArtPunk]

this made me cryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy aweee. I love TMBG so muchhh.

[@BugsyFoga]

They might be giants + Ska : total awareness.

[@Whisper_xx]

AYYYY DR.WORM!!! Dude I rember jamming out to this when it would come on Kablam! I regurally listen to it cause its such a bop

[@BrutalistJr]

kinda funny considering how much ska would play on Kablam

[@longdeadchannel8311]

Randomly got you in my recommendations - probably because I like TMBG and Doctor Worm. Really happy I did! Never been much of a ska girl but that may change honestly, enjoyed this a lot. Will look more into the genre.

[@Odin50Cal]

I saw this in the search results and was like "Someone had the gall to cover this song? AND in a slightly different genre?" Man you killed it! Nice flippin job!

[@arimackoff5868]

what a treat. watching you leap around and spin is the cutest and fills me with joy :)!

[@DontLetsStartAPodcastAboutTMBG]

This is amazing. Love the bass playing especially.

[@lidice3746]

I think the original song is ska So this sounds like recharged Dr worm Good work i loved it :D

[@fedupN]

Holy shit. I round back to your channel periodically to indulge some Ska goodness. You knock it out of the park, my dude.

[@TachiFrypan]

A Dr. Worm cover, with a Streetlight Manifesto towel(?) in the background? I think I have found my musical soul-brother.

[@s3dation]

Just remembered this exists and I’m very thankful. Thanks Jeremy!

[@phr3ndl33]

You did it!! My favorite random song!

[@aninerdart8332]

Yo you look like the kinda guy whose every day is an adventure!! So much energy 🤩

[@apostrophe.t]

HOW DID I ONLY JUST FIND THIS CHANNEL WTF This is amazing

[@LINK1733]

This song always will bring me back to the days of KaBlam

[@autisticautomaton]

Ironically the other song that brings me back to KaBlam is a ska song (2tone army)

[@LukeVader77]

This was a terrific cover!

[@doktorindustrial]

Holy shit! I love this song, and tmbg, and you nailed it! Thanks!

[@WilfredCthulu]

That energy.

[@alpal7280]

Hey I saw we are the union in Reno, and I just wanted to say you guys crushed it and thanks for coming to our little town!

[@x1ic1x]

Holy shit didn’t know I needed to hear this until now

[@TheHipAlbatross23]

Yo thanks Jer. This has always been my favorite TMBG track. Great stuff

[@marsneedsbunnies]

Came here from TMBG's Tumblr feed. You're amazing!!! Subscribed.

[@Enthusiasm441]

Thank you!!!!!

[@Goreblender]

I love this so much

[@Abermelin]

Fav song since I was little! Patron wasn't working tonight but I got a tshirt and I'll try to join the Patrons again tomorrow! You're amazing!!!

[@FaustProuvaire]

Dude. This is PERFECT.

[@walruswithebola1199]

Badass as usual

[@MrTheHegemon]

You did it. You beautiful bastard, you actually did it. This is my favorite TMBG songs!

[@rickbannan7110]

This kept getting suggested to me and I didn't get to it because I had a backlog of good music, apparently (that never happens). This is great! I'm a fan of both TMBG (Big fan, big big fan) and ska (From Dekker to, I guess, Skatune Network).

[@user-cz7yz9hc8b]

Can you cover this again?

[@alexoverby903]

Would love to see Lucky Ball and Chain if you ever feel like going back to TMBG

[@DoLetsStop]

amazing!!

[@agentorange1894]

This got me in to ska music

[@mikehuntsmells5253]

First heard this in a silly cartoon on Newgrounds over 10 years ago. Thanks for the nostalgia, and the dope cover

[@MaeveFork]

so glad i was recommended this

[@Broodling1]

So fun, so good, I love this. Thank you!

[@KennyRubenis]

I don't know why KZbin brought me to your channel, but I'm glad they did! You're great, man! Loving all of these :)

[@gottrumpuke6062]

excellent cover! makes me want to get a trombone like right now

[@mishuga]

Fantastic!

[@brian117]

The world can always use more ska AND They Might Be Giants. Awesome cover man, keep em coming!

[@xliquidpliskinx4327]

This is amazing

[@KingfisherTalkingPictures]

Great cover. Love the trombone!

[@Gamemaster13000]

Dude, this song was my childhood! I remember listening to it on KaBlam ages ago. While on the topic of KaBlam, Nick frequently used ska songs by The Toasters, my favorite of which being Everything You Said has been a lie(the instrumentals were used as KaBlam's outer in later seasons) and Two Tone Army(KaBlam's instrumental intro). Anyway, keep up the good work and don't let ska die!

[@PerfectAgent]

This is delightful! Thank you!

[@cleverboi3774]

this is actually really good

[@RobWaters]

Oh man. I'm just letting it random play (since all of the "next" songs are you), and this came on and I audibly swore. I'm a yuuuuuuge TMBG fan and this is like. So in line with the original. Like, Linnell could take a break and let you blow his part. So glad you covered this (since I wouldn't have thought to ask for it).

[@oioineil]

Doooooope. One of my favorite TMBG songs

[@breathinginsilence]

An amazing song!

[@insomniousluci2931]

I always already considered this a ska song :) but still, I love this cover and your channel.

[@pigeon_the_mighty]

NO WAY AWESOME!

[@schizophrenicdolphinz9822]

If I hadn’t heard this song in a while and heard this and someone told me this was the original I wouldn’t question it

[@catladyrai]

I always listen to the outro song. It's so catchy

[@b1merio]

Well, this is beyond adorkable. Love it.

[@ChroniclyAsh]

Your BEST work

[@Amyare]

You kill it every time dude!! I have a soft spot for They Might be Giants and you did them justice 💜

[@Guruc13]

You mean you did this whole damn thing yourself!? Well done!

[@Johnnyversetti1]

Thank you so much for this.

[@rebe01]

[@skylerJonesgybrush]
