Robyn / SNL Dance Comparison

[@Sleaslug]

Still can't believe how spatially aware this man is.

[@chantaygerardo8156]

This is one of my favorite comments on the internet and I want you to know it.

[@averageday]

Spatially*

[@Sleaslug]

@@averageday bro I wrote this 8 yrs ago

[@averageday]

@@Sleaslug yeah I watch this video every now and then and I always see your comment and it bothered me. I guess right now I took the courage to reply finally.

[@ImAlsoMerobiba]

@@Sleaslug hello from the future!

[@sunnydragon]

I'm just impressed by the fact that he did all the choreography in such a confined space.

[@GrimzyShake]

That’s what I’m saying! When he did that backwards somersault I was like….. taryn, Shauntay you stay

[@thevampirefrog06]

A parody this perfect can only come from a deep and abiding love for the original source material. You know he knew that dance before they shot this.

[@velmavelvet2263]

Tarran Killam was one of the great talents of SNL.

[@ternitamas]

it must have taken him hours or days of dedication and that makes me love him so much! that's investing lots of time and effort so hats off!

[@scottinbristol]

I think through loving the song and video he probably knew 75% of it before he even needed to "learn" it

[@SamiKrasniqi]

I wholeheartedly agree,that’s why i think that Trumps parody on SNL is dog shit , comes out of hate and contempt. I can’t stand Trump bthw, but it’s not like Dana, Phil or Will respectfully doing Clinton or both Bushes, Amy doing Hillary , it’s hate , it’s easy laugh , it’s unfunny.

[@Sough]

@@SamiKrasniqi cry me a river and do it elsewhere

[@Lacuna323]

Bobby in the doorway like "this shit I do for this guy"

[@____ae8092]

this video is almost 10 years old and here I am still watching it for the serotonin

[@helena-mc85]

It delivers every time, double points at night

[@trueclancy]

I sleep better at night knowing taran killam knows the call ur girlfriend video dance by heart

[@mewho6199]

We all do.

[@sushiandnoodle]

Taran Killam's dedication to Call Your Girlfriend always gets me going on a particularly bad day. I will never not love this video.

[@HellInternAKACandyMD]

I already liked your comment, but I came back to say I do the same now. I hate cheaters too, so I appreciate ending things before the cheating has a chance to happen.

[@stevenriznyk522]

even funnier is the one guy diligently trying to work despite the distractions.

[@Quarterbash]

That's Jost, isn't it?

[@katekennedy4292]

@@Quarterbash nah zach kanin

[@appleiiee]

@@Quarterbash Yes, a young Colin Jost!

[@jdpaddon]

This is still one of my favourite things on the internet.

[@jelicious0806]

Omg me tooo

[@rainiedennee2558]

Lol... I seem to come back to it ever 6 months for a laugh myself

[@SOI-wl2lo]

Videos like this make me LOVE the internet 😫😫😂🙏

[@lynmcneil5922]

Absolutely one of my favorites

[@allisonheath1156]

I come back to it every so often when I need a serotonin boost. Never fails.

[@IjeomaThePlantMama]

The nose wipe at the end was priceless.

[@j.p.6932]

pajamagirl123 At first I thought it was hilarious until I watched long enough to see that was just another element he mimicked from Robyn. Still a nice touch, but...

[@jNoSocks]

This could've been an amazing "Digital Short" for SNL, if they'd done the side by side comparison. I still laugh and smile every time I come back and watch this.

[@Ttoby89]

I bet he pitched it and got turned down, but the crew was like 'OK buddy let's just do it in the writers room'

[@sarahconnor6167]

Still watching this in 2021. I love this guy. Vanessa in the background....

[@baileycat7225]

This video is absolutely wonderful. I can't stop smiling from start to finish.

[@theseahag6639]

This is one of my favorite things to go back and rewatch again and again and again. Will never stop.

[@searchfornargles]

This is literally a masterpiece. A true work of art.

[@folasko5120]

His effort is as underrated as those disneyland actors.

[@championschica]

The guy at the computer is like "Why did they have to do this in MY office."

[@Slayedgah]

PERFECTION!!! Two of the most ADORABLE people on the planet!!!

[@AntonyOjeda]

I’ve made my decision. Shanty you both stay! You both are safe to slay another day.

[@Whothefuckisgrey]

Plsss 😂😂

[@EmmaCaitlinOwen]

Bobby in the corner with the flashlight kills me. The look on his face is just like: "Same shit, different week." Can I just be best friends with everybody who writes for SNL?

[@TheDJMysterE]

This is what i think of when i think of the 2010's

[@danieladame9520]

He Fucking killed it , great job .... one of my newest favorite videos on the interweb 👍🏽

[@timoneill100]

10 Years later.. and this still make me :o)

[@Katielavallee9]

Pure genius! I've loved Taran ever since he was on Moody's Point on the Amanda Show. And Robyn is amazing as well.

[@A.l.e.x.e.a]

this video gives me strength.

[@Tico602]

This video was, is, and shall forever be AWESOME. Great dance moves...and Robyn was good too.

[@edsterrock]

I can believe SNL let this guy go.

[@origamiandcats6873]

Me either. He is one of their greatest actors.

[@MaidNoMore]

Ugh, I know, I am still like, why???

[@j.p.6932]

Eddierockone I think part of it was he had another project lined up (I could be wrong). What I read said it was the same for Jay Pharoah.

[@sevendubb]

I like how bro is just working or something on that computer like it's business as usual @ SNL.

[@gdcat777]

I would like to have seen him in an open space with a camera positioned in the same place as her. She is so pixie-esque the way she moves, and he is hilarious imitating it.

[@spi666]

I love the guy working in the middle of the room who looks like he couldn't care a less.

[@j2thezla]

i have SO much work to do and i cannot stop watching taran rock this. please lord, get this song and video out of my head.

[@jasperjon5931]

to do that on tight spaces? omg!! that's talent

[@Astrolamb1048]

how could he do all those move in that tiny space, with all those people, and all that furniture??? Epic

[@TheMarlow29]

This just made my day. How does this not have more views.

[@jamiemill]

Favourite part: guy still working in the chair wishing everyone would piss off so he can finish writing the segment.

[@dannyyboy4913]

Regardless of how far he’s come, whenever I see Taran Killam I always think “Hey there’s Spalding from Moody’s Point!”

[@tjjohnston72]

You seriously are hilarious! You should be her backup dancer!

[@robinsonc976]

This is ART, Mawma!

[@rachelleio]

Just noticed the guy at the desk who continues to work as if nothing is happening, haha!

[@JarydStanley]

Man, Robyn really did a great job covering that dance.

[@zephyr84]

taran and cobie's daughter is the luckiest girl ever. imagine having taran as your dad!

[@lilliv6402]

Hahaha i like how the guy on the computer is not phased at all by the guy dancing.

[@SAHD-Dad]

Watched this 5 times. have tears in my eyes from laughing.

[@sackajapeanuts]

thanks for the compare. Didn't realize how brilliant the snl rendition was until I saw this...

[@beebs15]

Instant happiness is contained in this video.

[@RagenRibbonz]

Made a similar post on the cold SNL version but who cares, I wanna high-five this video everywhere. There is never a time that I will queue up a Robyn video or start a playlist (and there are many reasons I do) where I don’t also make sure this vid is included. So good and I just love it so much. (*ok maybe I also relate bc there was one night way back when I was working at Trader Joe’s, and while closing, this song came on and I dropped to the concrete and did the full back-somersault thing, to the fun cheers and laughs and wtfs of my crewmates…but I digress. This here is the epic version of that.) Edit: also anyone else miss Taran Killam? And Vanessa Bayer, of course. And Bobby Moynihan light show? Damn. Get it.

[@averyaugust]

I wonder if this was for a sketch that was cut after rehearsal. Otherwise, I can't believe Taran could spend this much time learning the dance on a show week. I miss Abby Elliott...

[@noshoesplease]

***** where did you hear this? if it was an interview or something i wanna see it, that's why i ask

[@LizzySpit]

I officially love this - so funny AND just reminded me just how much I love Robyn!! xx

[@TheNAPmusic]

the fact that he took the time to learn this

[@ternitamas]

This dance is addictive and the parody is so on point I love it so much! the only thing that gives me anxiety is the teeny tiny room he's dancing in!! omg! #claustrophobia

[@Th3oretical]

he even does the nose wipe at the end. hahaha!!!

[@chelse689]

I love the guy that just keeps working on his computer.

[@Lelolai]

Flashlight LOL!

[@AMERASIAN12]

This makes me so happy and emotional, I am actually teary eyed!

[@greggwearth7293]

omg thats awesome i was busting up all the way through this..Taran is so talented i love him...hes funny as hell..LMAO bwahahahahaha

[@AskAJanything]

This is everything!

[@colin72]

I don't know when people starting using this douche bag expression calling something "everything" but it's fucking cringe worthy and needs to stop.

[@jama2357]

Colin Green About the same time they started using "cringe worthy."

[@colin72]

Ja Ma Merriam-Webster says the first use of cringeworthy was in 1977. So I guess your wrong.

[@jama2357]

And that same dictionary reads--since it doesn't say anything at all because it's a book--that the first use of "everything" was in the 14th century. So, I guess that we are both wrong then.

[@colin72]

Ja Ma If you want to pretend that the trend of using "everything" in the way I criticized begin in the 14th century, you're more stupid than I thought... and I thought you were pretty damn stupid.

[@ChintzyRox1]

OMeffinG! I freakin LOVE this guy! (Kinda reminds me of Nick Swardson..who I LOVE as well)...I've watched this like 5 times already, and I keep laughing just as hard each time. I want to see more of him. SNL..GIMME MY TARAN FIX!

[@TheUbernell]

He is so spatially aware.

[@ThatDFortAsh]

As much as the song's lyrics reminds me of what my last ex did to me the SNL cast clowning to it makes it hurt less.

[@ThinVin]

omg spectacular! He should have been her back up dancer when she performed!

[@PacoPincayP]

Amazing, very talent !!!

[@amandabethhhhh]

lmao when the flashlights came out i dieddd

[@bulldawg941]

There are no words for this video. I knew Taran was dead on, but not THIS in sync. So in love.

[@28Zeppelin]

Love the bit with the torch!! hahahahaaaa..... i mean how else are you gonna simulate disco lights in your living room, unless you've got disco lights in your living room? hahaha

[@ItsTreen]

5 years later...this still cracks me up

[@alexisdelmar]

one of the funnier things i'd seen on snl in a while

[@gefahrmaus]

Love Bobby at the end like "We done?"

[@blackbirddfly09]

I love Vanessa Bayer in the background. and Abby Eliot. So great.

[@ProfessorLX]

That this never aired on the actual show is a god damn shame.

[@asels]

i giggled the entire way through this! i did NOT expect him to know the moves for real! work!

[@totalxcrap]

i lost it when the flashlights came on.

[@IanForTheWin20]

I now know why Robin Scherbatsky loves him.

[@amberesque]

I've had a really shitty week and this has been the only thing that has made me smile.

[@Satellitegirl41]

Love the addition of flashlights.

[@porksoda84]

This video was funnier than this entire season of SNL so far.

[@Brozain]

I'm officially in love with this man.

[@POPTARTPSYCHO18]

Nice to see what they do when they're supposed to be working, lol. He did well for such a limited amount of space considering the Robyn was all over that studio. And I can't help but wonder whose sweater that is.

[@SquirrelBiskit]

This is so unbelievably awesome. :D

This is one of the funniest things I've seen in ages. I want those moves.

[@lilywzhan]

theyre like twins! i cant tell them apart! :O

[@Julezzien]

this is just simply awesome.

[@IronMaven90]

I thought he was making up the dance moves when I saw it separately, I didn't think he was legit to the actual vid, DANG!

[@Electrikick]

Perfect video And I even saw Sarah Schneider in the background!

[@iamthesixthchild]

I worry this is what I look like at the bar....awesome hahahah

[@reddaB]

This is beyond epic. The original vid Is one of my favourite music videos. And that guy is amazing. So much love for this. Hillarious too :D

Jory sent me. Also the flashlight strobes made me lol.

[@MPW4343]

THIS IS FREAKIN HILARIOUS

[@alfonsolp16]

Haha! I love this song but now I can't listen to it without thinking in this video! AMAZING!

[@DangerouskilljOyx16]

shes doing the electric slide , lmfao

[@BigRedShadevil]

How did I just find out this existed? I love this song and SNL. Colin Jost typing away while everyone else plays is perfection.
