[@Taullaris247]

One of my favorite parts of this video is Cara's facial expressions and body gestures. It really makes this enjoyable to watch and not just listen to. The amazing lyrics help as well

[@solomonbrown2476]

Unplugged is legit better than the full scale productions

[@napoleoncontreras4184]

[@lindenmurgo9273]

Solomon Brown I like Unplugged too ...and Key of Awesome Live Performances too. I recently Live Performed some of my parodies, I often perform them busking and my latest parody (to The Weeknd's Starboy) was just me singing and playing guitar

[@ogorodami]

Better than the original, sorry not sorry. The lyrics are gold and the music just goes so much better with live instruments.

[@NightWatch707]

+hello from the other side I always watch the originals after their parodies and this definitely has a better composition and variety than the original song.

[@ogorodami]

+NightWatch707 yep!

[@7thlittleleopard7]

+hello from the other side But have you heard the Pentatonix version? Because that is the shiiiiiiit~ This is funny, though~

[@kkokay4]

+hello from the other side Not saying much cus the original is horrible

[@ogorodami]

+7thlittleleopard no I didn't. Gotta check it out.

[@nolan6676]

1. Best singer I've heard in a while she should be a pro if she isn't already 2. Best unplugged so clever

[@talissarodriguez3923]

And when Mark said Thanks for delivering that package 😂

[@simonewilliams2544]

i love Matt 😂

[@brolololo]

I really like Meghan Trainor. But god damn this parody has better lyrics than the actual song. No has the most annoying lyrics ever. ~I NEED~ ~SOME LUNCHABLES~ ~SOME LUNCHABLES~

[@MeBeMat]

Cara's voice is hypnotising. It's so strange seeing the real vocalist behind the characters in KoA videos. Even though we'd seen Tatiana in some BTS videos, it's hard to link her and Cara's faces to the voices they provide, which is why I love these "unplugged" videos so much.

[@leahsheridan4630]

She is such a great singer🎧🎤🎵🎶 I can't stop watching

[@SillySimmuz]

FINALLY somebody else noticed that she doesn't blink

[@NGMonocrom]

Screw the big production! We want more of this! And more Cara!! Mark, you lyric re-writing genius, why can't you write like this all the time?! Thumbs up for one of the best Key of Awesomes ever!!!

[@McBenjiii]

She reminds me of Fran Drescher from "The Nanny"

[@ajsioux]

[@jemmakennedy5643]

I'm obsessed with this

[@JPF222]

+Jemma Kennedy Me too!!! I can't stop watchingit, it's so good

[@4x4manify]

That was actually one of the funniest parodies you've written in while XD

[@baethazar]

This has to be one of my favorites! It's silly and made me laugh. Your singer is quite talented with both her voice and her facial expressions which tends to be one of my favorite things to watch from actors / actresses. Kudos to Cara! I'm impressed and inspired. I wasn't too sure about the grocery list part but everything else was enjoyable and entertaining. You always manage to make really great parodies.Please don't tell anyone I'm watching this instead of working on finals projects I need a break and this channel is my to go to stress relief place. This is my first time commenting but I loved Cara too much to pass up some much needed to give praise because I never have and you all deserve it for the work and effort involved with your creative outlet!

[@prasanthigandham4085]

"now I'm gonna dance, even though I can't " xD lol

[@SaraSantos-bp4ff]

i think this song is way more intelligent than the original one

[@Vix_Vi]

I like Meghan Trainor but this song is just... No. This parody is a yes though!

[@Vix_Vi]

SamuraiMo YouMaySayMo Why do you ask?

[@Vix_Vi]

SamuraiMo YouMaySayMo 1996. :) I don't like her voice in it and the "message" of the song. To me it sounds basically like "A guy wants to talk to me but I think I'm too good for him, so I'll act like a rude b*tch while shaking my butt to get rid of him".

[@fairlysleepy]

Son this is amazing. Never failed to amaze me, yall are always better than Bart's.

[@monicacarrilllo]

The lunchables part killed me

[@jackies.6211]

1:05 You spelled "understand" wrong in the subtitles.

[@Matt-no7gg]

Oh.

[@joralenmauldin1515]

The delivery guys face when she called him trash on her lawn had me bawling!! I'm so obsessed with this song

[@gigglyfitzgirl]

This might be the best parody I've heard in a long time.

[@bu3asalli]

you are about the only parody channel that can do these version of parodies. your focus is on creative lyrics and unpredictable concepts. other parodies rely too much on gimmicks, tbh. Keep being awesome!

[@susanwoodrup4983]

YOU CAN SIGN MY FIST! 😂

[@lucasr3548]

I don't understand why she's so pissed

[@RachaelWfantasalia]

I love this video so much I keep rewatching over and over

[@teen-at-heart]

Looooove the unplugged versions!!!

[@averyramskill678]

The way she is singing is so addictive.

[@rianrinaldidjita]

i laughed way too hard for this! GENIUS!

[@JoshWixey]

Died of old age. XD

[@spookylantern8897]

who

[@forrestknight8690]

He moved to Texas

[@minimooster7258]

He moved away to start another KZbin channel I think. But they said they still get along, he just wanted to do something different.

[@kerri-lynndunne9942]

He's getting married and starting his own channel. It's possible he'll come back for a collaboration though.

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

LOVED THIS!!! You guys are the greatest!!!

[@tiffyjones4297]

Can't wait 4 you guys to make it into a video ❤️❤️❤️

[@antezunic8057]

[@redred7702]

"When I'm concentrated I don't blink" Me: really? (Searches on google and watches other music) OMIGOD SO TRUE

[@mb3938]

This was awesome!!! really funny and creative!! love it!

[@tacojr5979]

YES!!! I WAS WAITING FOR THIS AND IM SO COMPLETED. It should be the actual song or at least some of the lyrics. I luv u guys!

[@RobinOrzo]

This parody gave me a genius idea for some reason, it could be really funny if you were were to do parodies on some popular old school songs (Like maybe Britney Spears songs etc) maybe just do an unplugged session like this or something...you guys come up with the most friggin genius lyrics I think I just want to see how you would parodize some classics with your genius-ness. Just a thought, keep being awesome!

[@wittyandfunnyname2741]

yeah a parody of old Britney songs would be interesting ☺ I loved her when I was really young (didn't know what good music was back then 😉 ) But I doubt they'd do that since she's not in the mainstream anymore.

[@pajam88]

This is 10 times better than the original!!! loved it!

[@emilymillea5554]
