Steam Powered Giraffe - Suspender Man (Live at the Four Points by Sheraton in San Diego)

[@orandulum]

I love how at the beginning when they do the "One moonlit night" they actually harmonise with the accordion itself.

[@zombiefication5211]

A crime fighting team made up of Captain Albert Alexander, Rex Marksley and The Suspender Man. The stuff dreams are made of.

[@stevie3372]

The Suspender Man would be their villain. Lily Airheart would be the other hero.

[@hunteravants7170]

Lol oh god yes

[@maidapoix]

and Commander Cosmo!

[@kevinsejnowski3141]

Then they recruit Leopold Expeditus and Taki Büm Büm! And have a rival super group: Selgexicon and Friends (and Bessy the Minotaur) like Marvel vs. DC

[@ryzanmusic3293]

salgexicon tho

[@1969AFC]

This song is literally the #1 reason why the 2¢ Show is my favorite album.

[@nicholsjoshua15]

Five best albums ever in no order Smashing Pumpkins - Melancholy And The Infinite Sadness, REM - Automatic For The People, Blind Mellon - Self Titled, Poets Of The Fall - Carnival Of Rust, and Steam Powered Giraffe - The Two Cent Show.

[@turquoisedragon9011]

Add Chicago17, Journey Infinity, and anything from ABBA in 1975.

[@gideon903]

This is strangely nostalgic. I listened to this in middle school, and I'm going into college soon. It still holds up, too.

[@areallycoolhat5427]

How you doing, now?

[@habitsrabbit]

How you doing, now?

[@HetaliaWhovian47]

Here's a thought. The Jon used to wear suspenders. None of the current members do. What if this is the story of what REALLY happened to the Jon?

[@LizardWizard444]

bum bum BUM

[@Cookiejaytube]

Jon was still in the band when this song was around I think.

[@zanderjones3769]

Cookiejay yeah but he left after this album

[@jacquejac1840]

Rabbit got The Jon suspenders as a birthday present from Suspender Man. At least that was the skit at the zoo. : kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3yxoX-LhrCko7c

[@stevie3372]

"wearing pants, it sure does bite" Well that's why Rabbit now wears a dress. She likes those better.

[@danflaherty1861]

i can't be the only one amazed by how genius that banjo stand is, right?

[@LaggyGoBoom]

I knew I wasnt the only one that noticed! It was pretty cool how it let one guy play two instruments easily.

[@chaoticentity2717]

man the spine looks so good in his coat.

[@KikinCh1kin]

Man the spine still looking damn fine. Coat or no coat

[@steam3802]

man the spine looks good in his hat

[@danamirrors4310]

Man, The Spine looks so good

[@jishmista]

Man, the spine looks

[@MeiGoat]

Man, The Spine

[@trashcanchic]

Whenever they have songs like this, these vivid tale-type things, I always imagine the scenes they're singing about. They're such an amazing band.

[@chasethemaster3440]

Same and facts!!

[@4jarsdude00]

i like how bunny's face is at 2:52. its just like "i just remembered i left the cat plugged in.

[@armorhide406]

Oh that is priceless

[@Matty_magpie]

by far my favorite comment

[@Jay-ih9jp]

Can we appreciate the fact that this is a band that has to perform a song about a guy disappearing/getting dragged into hell after selling his soul. And during this song, one of them has to yell "MICHAEL, FRACTURE THAT BANJO" and the other one has to comply. And during this they manage to not die laughing. I mean I just though that was impressive. ...Also did the Jon steal the guy's suspenders after he disappeared? Is that where they came from?

[@hecklife6636]

Katoka Karalashvili Pretty sure the reason why he wears the suspender has some lore in it, but idk what it was.

[@Jay-ih9jp]

Oh does it? I didn't know. Oh well.

[@hecklife6636]

Katoka Karalashvili True. But I thought they already did..?

[@Jay-ih9jp]

Did they? I'm not sure, I don't know that much about their lore.

[@hecklife6636]

***** If I recall, they were her actual eyes in the war and she now keeps them as a souvineer. Don't quote me on that, though.

[@eloressa]

HATCH CAM ACTIVATE!

[@dumpstercast-refuseradio8429]

If you guys showed up on my doorstep I swear I would cry.

[@youtubeuser8789]

Tabby Cat XD

[@therobotwolf]

Tabby Cat I would scream because of happiness if they showed up at my house.

[@Stealth122333]

Tabby Cat :-/ Every time anyone ever comes to my door I'm always on the toilet... I wouldn't want to miss this.

[@neverforgottenraine1509]

+Tabby Cat i would scream/cry/faint/laugh/and give them a BIG hug.

[@tristopher5183]

+Neverforgotten -raine- I would greet them invite them in have a meaningful conversation over tea they'll notice it's getting late so I'll walk them out only after taking a picture with them and then die

[@cohesivekai83]

Can we talk about how rabbit did the whole fog turning crimson red? The rolled r was amazing.

[@hecklife6636]

SPG: One of the few groups that are able to make a banjo and accordion sound good.

[@jr540123]

Seriously they make most countrys band cry with this song alone

[@Candiedcorn]

That intro never fails to give me goosebumps omg

[@FrauSmartcard]

Never stop this MIRACLE OF TELLING MAGIC STORIES! Can't get enough of you!

[@LizardWizard444]

you are right now spg give me your knowledge

[@mikaela_history]

I really wanna see the entire performance from the viewpoint of Hatchy's camera x3

[@m1tz1pop98]

that harmony in "one moonlit night" gets me every time TToTT

[@MorningDusk7734]

Swinging by during my SPG nostalgia binge❤

[@KamikaziRainDrop]

Please don't take this the wrong way - 'cause this act is incredible - but I actually prefer the live versions of Steam Powered Giraffe songs over the "canned" versions, even though the recordings are awesome. There's just something very special about the live recordings and stage performances. I love it all. Keep it up! :D

[@hecklife6636]

I can see why.

[@keighlysocha5364]

I think it’s something with the electricity of their performances. The energy is incredible, and I think that’s a reason why I love their live performances.

[@kaisarlon]

After watching and listening to all the versions of this song I could find, I've decided that this is the best version for me. Let's just say I've never never never never never never never never heard anythin' so great!

[@willowwainwright3729]

Me:Sees The Spine, takes closer look at The Spine, realizes The Spine is wearing a trench coat, falls off chair.

[@becketclark9942]

Love this song. It's like, the one country song I like, and i love it. Also the banjo solo is incredible, especially on the album version. I like this ending better too.

[@unluckymoirai]

it feels more like back water Cajun blues style to me..

[@jr540123]

Mickel Jones Its all good stuff in the end, when you think about it, allot of the cool sounds and styles from old timers that played Bluegrass country etc etc have never been forgotten, merely played with newer instruments to appease the next generation in a sense.

[@unluckymoirai]

Indeed!

[@ezrablock3218]

+Becket Clark *adjusts music nerd glasses* It's FOLK, not country.

[@edwardjonesjonesfleming5595]

folk style not country there is a difference however cant fault you to much as most cant tell the difference. regardless this is amazing and addictive..

[@MillenniumKnights]

The Bennett Twins are insanely talented in the vocal area

[@drex23100]

These guys are incredibly talented. Unbelievable.

[@JeffreeJelleefish]

When they all sing, "One moonlit night." Oh my goodness.

[@Remmemory]

I love this song, one of Bunny's best :)

[@terminallyFable]

These guys make me genuinely happy. Nothing can put a smile on my face like Steam Powered Giraffe.

[@charleshammack9033]

How do these guys ONLY have 123 thousand subs????

[@sammi4982]

You are simply the CUTEST troubadours I have ever seen!!!

[@emilyashton6296]

I love almost all Steam Powered Giraffe songs.

[@MugiwaraLP]

Every time I think SPG can't probably outdo what I already saw, there they go and prove me wrong.

[@septuarii]

I flipping ADORE Rabbit's laugh!

[@BoomDackal]

Switching from banjo to guitar then back to banjo and then back to guitar would be hard as hell! XD If you've played both, you'd know just how similar yet different the two are.

[@stevie3372]

That's why he's the best human.

[@Tox1cSoundWave]

I've been listening to the band four about a year now, and every single time I listen to them (a lot) I can't help but be impressed by how perfectly they harmonize..

[@therobotwolf]

I like Bunny's little hint to they audience at the end. Anybody know what i am talking about?

[@cosmiccosmo7435]

Cosmic Cosmo is lost

[@DRNarwhalPhd]

Just accidentally smashed my banjo. Thought I'd listen to this to feel better

[@CialBlaze]

Banjo man in the back is getting into it

[@jacquejac1840]

For some reason the style of this song reminds me of Voltaire... A collaboration of SPG & Voltaire would = Epic!

[@slumdog113]

I just want a compilation of spine kicking stuff like at 1:12

[@brittanylormis4553]

omg yes!!

[@keighlysocha5364]

I would love to see a remastered version of this one! Always has been one of my favorites!

[@PhoenixJohnsonAuthor]

Rabbit's voice at the start of this. I have no words for how much I love it!

[@jr540123]

I love this song

[@kemurai6]

They have such wonder harmonies, it's unbelievable!

[@Alexander_Alexander]

well looky there, they have a new subscriber. I'm glad I found these guys.

[@unluckymoirai]

Off topic, but your picture is creepy as hell.

[@98lulus]

This is absolutely amazing! I would LOVE to see them live. and The Spine's jacket unf

[@malachikuroski394]

The intro is my favorite part.

[@Juli4nGold]

The live version of this is so much better than the recorded version. you guys should have another live album :D

[@vogel4127]

My god, my friend showed this to me and I fell in love with it! You people have amazing talent!

[@denisevanplew8432]

Seen this played at calico favorite song of the show since hearing them they are my favorite band love this music

[@ana13angst]

These guys are so good... 'And I ain't never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, heard anything so great.' ~~perfect~~

[@AllThingsWithHope]

This is fantastic, I just can’t get over it. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@l0wkey_kl0ud85]

OMG I LOVE THIS SONG I KEEP REPLAYING IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN

[@davidsain2129]

This song is far out, epic and so cool!

[@JezdamayelCaster]

Very awesome! They love what they do and you can tell. I have yet to hear a song i do not like!

[@ultra-vivi]

***** No, bad bot, you've got the wrong kind of Steam in your search filter

[@hunnyamy9566]

I think we ALL know that this song is actually talking about The Jon

[@bloodfurycon]

i was thinking that but wasnt sure if it was or not :P

[@Vayxes]

It isn't It just is not, that simple

[@reaperbunnnycosplay3786]

Im pretty sure it is

[@Vayxes]

Reaperbunnny Cosplay It's about a man named Gormley who sold his soul to play the banjo, last I checked Jon's name isn't Gormley and robots dont have souls to sell. Just because they both wear red suspenders means literally NOTHING

[@reaperbunnnycosplay3786]

ATearWillShed Lol okay bro chill i was just saying it sounded like it was about Jon

[@jwolf1585]

now, im definitally not the only one replaying this over and over again

[@thePaygers]

Their harmonies have never sounded better!

[@eodtalley84]

Another great performance, this is my shocked face. Can't wait to get back to the states and see it live.

[@jilliehagens1223]

Heaven to my ears..

[@cal9341]

aello465: Why are you like this?

[@TindraSan]

1:01 oh SHIT! I just realized.. I've been bothered by that little accordion drill for a while since I first heard it, it sounded so familiar.. and I just realized It's a minor version of the Mickey Mouse Club House theme song!!!!

[@BlackDiamondXx]

Why are you all so amazing?! I just...My jaw hits the floor every time I watch a video.

[@TheOneYouLeastExpect]

I never get tired of this.

[@raimundoray924]

já perdi a conta de quantas vezes eu ouvi essa musica (I've lost count of how many times I've heard this song )

[@JustJeanette]

YAY... More wonderful music from those incredibly talented robots..

[@johnnyreaubourg56]

superbe,mon top 3 c'est celle-ci en premier (suspender man) , puis brass google, et me and my bayb ...et bien d'autres...

[@CreativelyWarped]

Love your music! Out of curiosity, do you still perform live with a full band? I feel like that's where you really shine! Hope you come back to Niagara On The Lake. Haven't seen you live yet. :)

[@JustMeandMySelf2]

I've always wanted suspenders... this just makes me want some even more!

[@FighterUnitHopeless]

I once said that once they got their dream-team together, they'd become bigger than the Beetles. Provided there is no more band drama (which is beyond the fan's control), I think we have the dream team now. Prepare yourselves, SPG, you're about to be the next big thing.

[@elwynbrooks]

This is so deliciously eerie; been listening to it for DAYS now!

[@shadooper]

The harmonies are so good!

[@cassoughh.jubilance5158]

This song.... gerd I love this song...

[@elwynbrooks]

Can I just say that the lighting in this video just gives it that extra edge of /completely awesome/

[@sixthplace3]

So much showmanship it's incredible!

[@Mikeofindy]

Still relevant 8 years later

[@AIRogge]

This was the first song I ever heard from them, live, Memorial Day weekend 2013. Utterly fell in love with the group. Rabbit singing the intro transfixed me and I have been continually bemused and amazed by their collective talents ever since - particularly their range and control.

[@cocolossal69]

What a fantastic song. So much fun and energy, and such a cool story. Love it 💜

[@CheshireMax]

The lighting design for this is super sweet.

[@Lostpoet112792]

I hope you guys can make your way to Wisconsin. I absolutely love your music.

[@lhu5636]

Gotta love that banjo!

[@86noodlesband2]

You guys have so much talent and heart. Looking forward to the band playing the metro Detroit area

[@Lembsus]

Thank you for more performance videos this is just fun to watch

[@TheStormsinger]

Fantastic!

[@Skyril2]

Please come to Tennesse. :} I'd absolutely love to see y'all live.

[@GauscryptsStudios]

Such shredding has not been witnessed in many a moon. Rock on, SPG!

[@LoveMeSomeSarcasm]

Yes! My favourite song!!!! =D You guys play SO WELL live!! I would kill to see you ^_^

[@FighterUnitHopeless]

It's amazing how much they look like their comic appearances in this lighting.

[@Anonymouscommenter8]

*expletives and flailing* Oh man, I think I forgot how to breathe at the beginning and didn't quite figure it out all the way until the end. Sometimes all the talks about change scare me a little, but then I see something like this and I want to glare at past-me. Change is so beautiful, I could die. I think I might've already ...

[@geloofinmolko]

It's so cool seeing all of the different venues that you guys perform in these new live videos! Great fun!

[@herelizasaint]

Thanks all for the information.

[@KleptoCosplayer]

My God! This is utterly fantastic!

[@RemlapVII]

Amazing!

[@hotbunsyip8896]

You guys should use a banjo more often :D

[@oceandianaut]

Love the lightning!

[@NarutoFreak157]

I'm so jealous of everyone there! I really wish you guys would come to vegas! absolutely love you guys

[@icegc]

You just simply awesome guys )

[@herecomemacOnTT]

Pretty great performance. It's cool that you guys had the cameras showing the different perspectives, too. =]

[@9til5wizard]

It's my favorite song...

[@Sonja_Rasmus]

This song is very cool :D
