Teenage Bottlerocket - They Call Me Steve (Official Music Video)

Merch: riserecords.mer...
iTunes: smarturl.it/tbr...
I knocked down a tree with my bare hands
And I've been to all four corners of this land
I killed a giant spider with an iron sword
And I ran ten miles being chased by a zombie hoard
They call me Steve, I'll do anything you want me to
They call me Steve, I'll dig a hole to hell and back for you
I built a giant mansion in a mountain side
And it's fully furnished with a pool and water slide
But late at night the creepers walk me home
But I don't mind I'm getting used to spending nights alone
They call me Steve, I'll do anything you want me to
They call me Steve, I'll dig a hole to hell and back for you
I don't know what to do cause me and Steve are really missing you
They call me Steve, I'll do anything you want me to
They call me Steve, I'll dig a hole to hell and back for you
They call me Steve, I'll do anything you want me to
They call me Steve, I'll dig a hole to hell and back for you

i remember when my stepdad showed me this song a few years ago, he's a punk rocker obviously but I'm now just getting into punk rock because of him, this is what got me into it, as a new young punk rocker this is a great memory.

[@emmettlazarski6363]

When I listened to this song for the first time I thought, “pretty cool song”. Me just now realizing that this song is about Minecraft

[@dave9928]

I had to come look this up, its been on my Playlist for months but I just put it together.

Fucking Steves abound, 11/10 from a fellow member of this nomenclature that we justify as a title for a person.

[@devodevine]

This band just isn't edgy enough, they're not angst ridden enough. They're not emo enough. They aren't very tough. They're not hipster enough. Which is exactly why I love em!

I got to see them awhile back with my husband and oldest son.....my youngest passed 4 years ago.....in an hour and 2 minutes 18 years ago Owen Randall Hooton came into my life, a minecraft master.....anyway as the band is talking how they were digging on an audience of all ages it all got green....the lights I guess, and as they started to play this song I could feel him, there with us.....his favorite color is green, while y'all played this song, in a little club in Dallas Tx, my family, the four of us, were together again....never think your music doesn't matter......thank you 💚💜💙🧡 💔💔💔💔

[@DavidRNeff]

youtube comments don't normally make me cry. I'm so sorry for your loss.

[@stillborn007]

Not what I would expect from TBR, but then again, it totally is! These guys still have the punk-attitude that I love. And they've done sillier themes (like Necrocomicon, which is also an awesome song :) )

[@josephinahuxley]

bloodbath at burgerking anyone?

[@leogilbert7220]

Steve is my spirit animal. I AM Steve!!!! I love this so much.

[@ndSpaz]

This band touches stupider and sillier themes with every record and that's what I love about them. Simple, but very catchy, try and write a pop song like this, I bet you can't.

[@richardmoreira239]

I also bet they can't!

[@PatrickHogan]

Richard M Wh-what?

[@richardmoreira239]

Patrick Hogan I mean that I also bet that people who criticizes TBR for their new songs can't write a simple, catchy punk-pop song as well as TBR does...

[@PatrickHogan]

Richard M Oh, I read it as, I bet the band can't write a song like this. But they already did. Because they wrote it. You can understand my confusion.

[@richardmoreira239]

Patrick Hogan No problem, dude! If I don't like a band, I don't waste time commenting shit in their videos like those dummies do. :D

[@X65157]

Great Band! Caught them live this weekend and they told me about how they got this video made. The guitar players kids watch Let's Play Minecraft videos. They contacted one of the guys that makes the videos and asked them to make this for them! Nice guys, great show!

[@skapunkteddybear]

Rest easy, Brandon. Sad day.

[@misfitramone]

I got to meet Ray, Miguel, and Brandon outside the knitting factory in Spokane! the other person i got to meet and see that night was Tony Sly I'm just glad I got to met and see them both before there passings! both were amazing punk rock musicians! I love them both! amazing guys à

[@arendaal9746]

Saw them live last weekend, awesome show!

[@ndSpaz]

And I'm so glad they signed to Rise, I love reading the comments, something like when Off With Their Heads signed to Epitaph.

[@joemiller7082]

Which is dumb as hell because Epitaph is a punk label.

[@scottaprilguinn3676]

TBR fan since early 2000s. Listened to this song a thousand times. Fast forward and now I have a 5 year old who is obsessed with Minecraft. One day put on the tales from Wyoming and it all made sense . I pretty much flipped out that I never put it together all this time. Love this song and love this band.

[@CallYourFriends420]

haha i just figured it out today 😂

[@oopstags6784]

Was a huge Minecraft kid. My dad is a huge punk rock fan and loves this band. Showed me this song. Even though I've kind-of outgrown Minecraft, I'm blaming my dad for my Teenage Bottlerocket obsession. Will forever treasure this song.

[@ki0riginal]

It took my dad a year to figure out it was about minecraft.Even better he's been playing minecraft for a whole year🤣

We need a “Steve is OP” Smash compilation with this song.

[@stevenarevalo3132]

Yes that would be nice

[@york707]

As a relatively new fan of the band (last 3-4 years), I have definitely heard this song. My kids love minecraft, and through that I had a general knowledge that there was a character in the game called Steve, but it was not until right now that I realized this song was about the Minecraft Steve. The more you know...

[@davekehnast7034]

I think it's awesome. Punk people are snotty and amusing. Just listen to the tones from the guitars and the Blasting Room production. It's solid, and they are one of the best live punk bands I've seen to this day.

[@grenadedude91]

dude you're so right! TBR is an awesome PUNKROCK band!! fuck all these emo Kids on here

[@Brandownage27Gaming]

You're right, Its a song about a video game and will cater towards 10 year olds. So much better!

[@madrockradio]

Brandon Ownage this is one of the most respected punk bands these days, and they like to have fun. They did all of Warped last year and they were one of the best bands out there. Are they super original? No. Is their music catchy and fun? Yes! By singing about Minecraft, they're just singing about a game they like. I know plenty of adults that play the game quite a bit.

[@RazicatSpokr]

It's not much better, actually it's worse to me. It's a song about a fucking video game.. And a bad one at that.

[@GamerSpite]

I liked it, I bet this band is having a lot of fun instead of acting or being serious all the time

[@Kayayayaya]

+Gaming Spite I've met them in person before and you can bet that they are more interested in having fun than the haters in KZbin comments.

[@GamerSpite]

[@_nullzy]

The children whining in these comments are hilarious. Part of what makes TBR fucking awesome is that they arent afraid to be goofy every now and then. The very next track on the album is about The Evil Dead. Not to mention Kody fronted The Lillingtons, which was arguably one of the best horror-ish punk bands out there.
