there's an awful lot of hoopla
around the iphone 4 anttenna
when you grip it with the death grip
and you're call slips away
the media loves a failure
in a string of success
the facts won't ever matter
if they can make bigger messes
sure i can make it happen
but in terms of daily usage
i've yet to drop a call
so this whole damn thing is stupid
and you can call me a fanboy
i've been called worse things
but gizmodo just ridiculous
pulling their anti-apple strings
you bought a stolen prototype
get over it and move on
or hey even better
let's all sing this song

[@zachfinemusic]

I remember watching this 13 years ago. This just popped in my heard 13.5 years later

[@dannyhill896]

2019. Still Watching and remembering the good days .

[@editedtothemax2742]

Same.

[@ricardom.p.4494]

2020 too! 😁

[@ruimpinho]

Let’s go 2023. Never let this epic video die

[@huh48894]

2023

[@TWOTONEFARM]

2024 bruh

[@АнзорФахми]

This song is the anthem of my childhood, God I'm crying

[@aksiyonbizde3016]

I was watching your “I just go into Jiggle mode” video and I saw a video called “Steve Jobs danced to my song” it was from you too. I never actually had an issue with the antenna. I love to watch every single one of Apple’s presentations, I didn’t know that Apple had a presentation that they defended the Antennagate so I watched the presentation. And it is awesome that Steve Jobs enter the stage while dancing to your song.

[@Vylkeer]

Steve used this video in a press keynote addressing the antennagate! :)

[@aritradey8334]

The song that made Steve Jobs just go into jiggle mode ❤️

[@ruimpinho]

Epic comment. Epic song. There’s an awful lot of hoopla (hoopla)… 🗣

[@heylliott]

Still here 6 years later, still singing this song

[@retropetsgirl]

me too! :D

[@MrDJViciousDelicious]

8 years and I still watch this one

[@grg-productions]

9

[@andrewniedziela]

Over 9

[@MattePurple1]

I was looking through my oldest "favorited" videos looking for something completely different, and I stumbled upon this gem again.

[@AakashMehta]

I’ve been following you since Steve Jobs started the emergency keynote with it back 12 years ago.. and now you’re my go-to example for creators who value consistency and creativity to become great

[@TipsterLIVE]

Totally forgot that Apple played this at their press conference for the iPhone 4 #AntennaGate conference. lol

[@resolvanlemmy]

I still can't believe that this guy had the audacity to make a song every song day without fail since 1 January 2009, that's the definition of commitment.

[@RowanBird779]

5217 days, which is more than my entire life

[@resolvanlemmy]

@@RowanBird779 More than the lives of most KZbin users right now, not including myself.

[@RowanBird779]

@@resolvanlemmy 13 years is a really long time, without any doubt.

[@resolvanlemmy]

@@RowanBird779 It is indeed.

[@natazeze]

@@RowanBird779like anyone cares about your life 😂

[@FixedHDD]

Somehow this brings a feeling of nostalgia and happiness to me. I remembered the day when the 'Antennagate' story surfaced and this song was released. Back then it was a headline and now it's just a faint memory of the iPhone maturing process.

[@connormatthews9674]

Steve Jobs is probably the only CEO in history to start a keynote with a comedy song instructing listeners to return their products and not get into any hot water (at least publicly) with the board or shareholders. 😅

[@brankomaksimovicmax]

Good old days. Simpler times. 14 years later… iPhone’s still number 1

[@giantiger12]

I still watch this.

[@RamLaska]

Me too. One of my faves.

[@jessepiazza2106]

Gian-Carlo Torres do you still watch this

[@syra1541]

til this day

[@tigermark182]

i still watch this

[@KenshiroMLT]

I'm back listening to this because NOTHING's changed.... now it's the iPhone 15 Bend gate....Maybe people should try to stop bending their phones and trying to snap them in half to make money on youtube?

[@iJav]

2024 still bopping

[@mr.fusion9872]

"But i still miss Steve, that's his theatre, as the days go by, I feel sadder"...

[@Michael-Archonaeus]

Here’s to watching this in 2021! Actually it was pretty ridiculous, I bought the iPhone 4 right after launch, and I had plenty of problems with the glass breaking, if I as much as looked at it wrong, but the antenna was actually one of the great things about the iPhone 4, it had a very good antenna, as long as you didn’t put your finger in that one very specific awkward position...

[@aaronslens]

The good old days

[@RoughCutsLtd]

2021, still find myself singing this. So I'm back for the original.

[@DerwinBeushausen]

I logged onto Apple to watch Steve Jobs give his press conference about the antenna problem, and this song was played at the very beginning before Steve Jobs took the stage. I LOVED it. This song, along with the fact that Steve Jobs decided to actually play it before his address, has caused me to finally make the move to purchase an Apple Computer. Steve Jobs handled this crises perfectly, and it shows he's still got the fire in his belly! I love this song. I love SJ played it for the world!

[@MaxLujan]

This song pops into my head at least once a year, thank you for a core memory from my teenage years ^_^

[@ViralSpew]

I am a younger Apple “fanboy”. Just learned about this today. Watched the whole conference, so interesting! Love the song btw!

[@ToruTsugawaTV]

懐かしいな。名曲だよ。俺もこういう曲を書いてみたい

[@iKiwed]

2020 and still remember this. Loved this!

[@MartyHuie]

12 years later and I still come back I love this song the only thing I'd like to see is the video where Steve Jobs announced this song was coming on I remember that day too

[@ruimpinho]

Let’s go! I always come back to this song every year. Banger :)

[@TechCollector357]

2021 and still listening to this

[@syra1541]

the instrumental is actually so fire

[@ariforu]

I listen to this song every now and then. Smart, innovative and fun. Thank you for making this 😊

[@jordan23ww]

I love this. Very true man. A lot of media is focused on the "problems" with this phone while ignoring the greater problems with other smart phones. I love this and I love my iPhone 4. Tune is very catchy!

[@Kehaan]

Great song, and seems like Apple have liked it! (They are playing it at the Apple Press Conference now)

[@DistrosProjects]

“We saw that on KZbin this morning and couldn’t help but share it with you” -Steve Jobs, 2010.

[@KyleBurbank]

Just as relevant as ever - Just replace a couple of words. Always loved this one.

[@bobfreeman814]

I think this is your most viral video yet man, keep it up your doing the world a good favor

[@benrlego]

Absolute classic, where did 8 years go...

[@glossy104]

Thrilled this is being played & played - as a fellow musician & mac convert I think this guy is supreme & a bloody good musician too - good on ya!

[@jeffmorris9826]

Urgent! We need Jonathan Mann to make an iPhone 6 bending in your pocket song.

[@mrfelface]

if you don't want an iPhone 6 plus don't buy it!, if you bougt one and you don't like it bring it back

[@MacFreaks]

It's been 2 years ALREADY!? Boy, time flies! I remember this video as if I only saw it the first time yesterday!

[@JesperZachrisson]

This one is still "Insanely Great". Thanks Jon!

[@diassteb]

I miss the old days of Apple… You're truly a legend!

[@Dickeythorsen]

I just needed a pick me up so I watched it again... THANK YOU!!!!

[@glossy104]

As a musician I can honestly say that I think this is .............. BRILLIANT! Good on ya!!

[@InMyOwnWordsTV]

2017... watching... still. GOOD!

[@PimblyCharles]

I can't believe this is thegamejew! It's been a year or so since I've seen one of his videos. I was watching videogamesawesome and they did a shout out for johnathon mann. I was intrigued and found this video. I said to myself, don't I know this guy? Over 1,000,000 views? No it couldn't.... It is! It's the gamejew! I'm so happy that he's getting to views he deserves. It's crazy to think I stopped watching his videos right around song a day #12. I NEVER thought it'd still be going today! Congrats

[@tomasdanielnieto5398]

Remember when the charger was included in the box?

[@pnvgordinho]

KZbin just recommended that I should watch this again and I couldn't resist.

[@adameld4852]

The start of this song, the pianos, just strikes me with a deja vu. Anyone know a song that has a similar opening?

[@DivingDeveloper]

Darude - Sandstorm

[@AndreasLindful]

Amy Winehouse - Back to Black

2022 going on 2023. Still Watching and remembering the good days .

This is your masterpiece, I love this song. Greeting from Czech republic.

[@aminozuur]

Still a great fucking song. iPhone 4 was one of the best phones ever btw.

[@leoalves4918]

"so this whole damn thing is stupid" "Tchun tchun tchururururum" Almost 10 years later, and I still listen this fucking holy music! So fucking good!

[@mrfelface]

This was 6 years ago.wat.

[@calle12345678910]

I still Love this

[@mrfelface]

I mean that as I was submitting a low effort internet comment then I simply rounded my years for hyperbole, as this video is timestamped as being uploaded in 2010 so 2016-2010= 6 so that it was what I put down and I say it was for hyperbole and to recognise that this is something i vividly remember and yet it was happened quite a long time ago

[@ryanmurphy6690]

Right?

[@mrdisem]

almost 8

[@zorrisssarethi2573]

Still great ❤

[@SofianeGuerfali]

I still watch it too lolll

[@RKane4u]

I love this...have to watch ever so often. Never dropped a call -- just put a case on it and noooo probs. Great job on your song, I have it memorized!!

[@jacobburnett807]

2011, and still watching. Yeah!

[@KentoNishi]

Anyone in 2018?

[@jesslindgren]

What a great use of the word 'hoopla' in a song.

[@iBoy2G]

If you don't want an iPhone 12 don't buy one if you bought one and you don't like it use it as a bong

[@222bigone]

i want to see gizmodo's response. i love your songs and i was in shock when the song i saw the morning of the press conference was then shown by the man himself. great job!

[@wiiu42]

Sent from my iPhone 4

[@simesp23]

Great song and very true. The iPhone 4 has to be the best phone that I have had and without any dropped calls. This song should be in the charts... Love It

[@ruimpinho]

2017!

[@tutorialconr]

Apple is not just another company. They are innovative. You know why Nokia and others dont have such problems ? Because they don't change designs and innovate. If you keep using the same design and do nothing , you wont have any problems. Salute to Apple , for actually sayings "We are not perfect" , and finding smart solutions.

[@noahbecerra]

Who still watches this?

[@pinkdiscomosh2766]

I've never seen this video before, but after watching it, it makes so much sense even today when people complain about Apple not allowing xcloud on iPhones. People! If it bothers you that much, don't buy an iPhone. Android has got you covered. It's that simple. No one is taking your consumer freedom away. Apple is one platform out of many. If you don't want an iPhone, don't buy it and if you already bought one then bring it back.

[@MrFeinbloom]

I don't use an iPhone , but this song is just great GREAT

[@casperes0912]

Truth right there

[@newkemhigh]

I did. I brought it back ... about four versions ago. Got absolutely no signal in my apartment. Had to go out to my front porch to use the phone portion of my iPhone ... which really sucked because it was the middle of the winter. So I brought it back. For years I've been blaming that sorry fate on AT&T - and only know I learn that it's not merely AT&T that had sucky signal, but Apple that had sucky reception. Beautiful phone, faulty software and design.

Who is this dude? Seen many of his 'song in a day' vids - he's friggin' awesome, great voice, good musician, and talented song writer. Well entertaining. He needs a recording contract!

[@technole]

2021: iPhone 4 had the best flat form factor it had to return in iPhone 12!

[@RediceRyan]

I'm happy you finally got a popular song, all your hard work

[@joemama38]

At another press confrence Steve Jobs had the first line and said "We are not perfect. Phones are not perfect." He also got interviewed and Steve Jobs said "all phones have this flaw." So the interviewer said "Can you make my Blackberry drop?" So Steve said "It may not work in some places." My dad said he is inconceterate but he is a PC and has a Zune.

[@deanyt3697]

Still listening in 2021.

[@bry-dav]

Yeah! I think you summed it up in two minutes and I was entertained the entire time. Well done!

[@mvardeman748]

Awww, cute. I just now saw this....years after the iPhone4, but as an Apple fan myself, it brings back memories. Thanks !

[@harrypotterification]

There is no antenna problem. The only problem I see is the signal strength isn't accurate. For example, when it says you only have bar and you make a call, it doesn't act like there's just one bar because the call doesn't break up or drop.

[@omarcorrea]

Genius Jonathan, you need to make this a ring tone. I especially love the very last words. I can't stop playing it.

[@bryanrogowski]

Best bit of commentary on antennagate thus far. Great job!

[@muhammadamjad6270]

Bring a lot of great memories!

[@ketch_up]

This is a great song. It's a kind of emotional release; people can get so worked up around the idealization of mac products - but they're just consumer goods like anything else. Either you want one, or you don't - there's no need to worry about something you aren't going to buy, and there's no need to buy any particular thing, so there's no reason to be angry about the iphone 4. But maybe I'm wrong - maybe the arrival of these products really is like awaiting for the messiah.

[@OliverDobbs]

You know you're a good youtuber when apple shows one of your videos at their event :)

[@InMyOwnWordsTV]

2022… watching… still. GOOD!

[@foucachon]

@bluenoserr I have talked to MANY "normal" iPhone 4 users. All say they can "reproduce" the problem, but wouldn't have noticed it themselves, and that it doesn't affect their performance. Just ordered mine today.

[@AroundTheApple]

Voll das Ohrwurmlied, höre ich jeden Tag!

[@sc0pl355]

@MoldytoasterMedia Yes you did use a key command. You used it to make it impossible to click on anything. Your machine even made the sound that ONLY occurs when you use that specific key command.

[@evilpro22]

It's kinda sad to see people abusing the dislike/like button. What you did is not what it was meant for... however, there's no way to stop people who are abusing it :/.

[@shirokuro73]

Almost 10 years later, this song still sticks in my head, and probably still will long after the world has forgotten what an iPhone 4 was!

[@dahveed284]

Damn your catchy little song! I had this stuck in my head on a 4 hour motorcycle ride. Just the 4 lines I could remember. Keep up the good work.

[@JohnTeeling]

Great song. Great acting. Great comedy. Great fanboy! :) I hope you get over a million viiew. Hillarious!

[@london20102011]

First time listening in years and oooh boy it brings back memories..

[@Kisama001]

Lol. Don't hold it in a deathgrip, and you won't have a problem. This was great. Gonna feature it on my channel.

[@jstn_lndy49]

Yep it’s been almost 10 years from this masterpiece

[@LivingOnVideo13]

175,000 and you hit a million! Go iPhone Antenna Song!

[@Ciriturbo]

Marvelous! I loved the song, the rhythm, all the effects! Good job!
