Fun fact about the band. Foo fighter’s Dave grohl is listed as their drummer and also plays the devil in both the video for tribute and the movie the pick of destiny.

[@RayAndrewsDev]

Whenever I see Jack Black doing a little vocal or musical bit while acting, it's like Clark Kent lifting his glasses just enough to let you realize he's Superman

[@andrecoutinho12]

His voice is amazing, Black Jack is great in everything he do

I feel like alot of people forget how insane Jack's voice is because of his funny man reputation. Most people just expect some funny, joking accent with wierd faces, when in reality he has extraordinary talent😅

[@satortenet]

Tenacious D got me into learning to play guitar, back in the late 90's. Want some more? Try one of these Tenacious D songs: - Tribute - Wonderboy - Kickapoo - Classico - Master Exploder

Add Dude I totally miss you, Rodie and The ballad of hollywood jack and the rage kage.

[@J0hnGalt73]

I went to see the film, "High Fidelity" at the theater when it came out. This was the first time I think I had seen Jack Black in anything. And when he sings Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On", at the end of the film, I was floored and not entirely convinced it was him. About a year and half later, their eponymous album dropped and I listened to it over and over and became a D fan.

[@justinlewis438]

I like the username dog🤘

[@MrRolemaster]

Tenacious D is a legit respected 'Rock Band', loved by Fans and their peers. Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters LOVES those guys, and Dave Grohl also loves Queen, so you know he has taste.

[@HowiTzer44]

Kage and Jables are amazing. Been listening to them for over 20 years now.

[@Baskerville87]

Please more Tenacious D! 🤘

[@rayactions]

I promise!

[@toohighstrung]

@@rayactionsThe ballad of Hollywood Jack needs to be on your list

[@LJHacki]

@@rayactions Take Kickapoo from Pck of Desteny. The Father of young JB was a great and famous singer, too ;)

[@mandoperthstacker]

The H.I.M. version is a full song cover! It's very good.

[@Nefariousbig]

Jack's probably one of the most explorative singers in the world. I don't think anyone outside of highly trained classical masters has the mastery of his vocal and expressive range. Certainly not the playfulness. He's spent his whole life figuring out every cool sound his mouth can possibly make!

[@flavio_spqr]

Welcome to the D! Their tribute/cover of Dio's Last in Line is just sublime!

[@darkinertia2]

one of my favorite covers of this song growing up is the one by HIM

[@kimzwolinski9919]

You should check out their music video to this 😊 They do comedy songs but they are really great musicians. You are lucky that now you can have the joy of hearing their songs for the first time 😊

[@victorsixtythree]

Their version of The Beatles' "You Never Give Me Your Money" is equally amazing...especially if you are a fan of and very familiar with the original (wait until they get to Ringo's drum solo!).

[@YourPalFry]

I love their Pinball Wizard/The Who cover.

[@DHFHades]

he also did an amazing cover of "let's get it on" in the movie high fidelity

[@ericgaudet5488]

Great job with your reaction to The cover of Wicked Game from Chris Isaak done there by Tenacious D . Jack Black has a great voice and he's also a great Guitarist.

[@TheSchizo2]

Wait until you find out Tenacious D has their own movie/musical type of movie loosely depicting how the band was formed "how JB and KG met". It's called "Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny".

[@unclepecos91]

If you want quintessential Tenacious D, listen to "Tribute". Amazing super comedic song. I'd suggest the official video in order to fully appreciate the "plot"

[@teddykgb3865]

Go back to the beginning and dig up the original episodes of their HBO show that launched them. It's funny.

[@Tyler_A]

As much as I love "The D", my favorite Wicked Game cover is still by the band "HIM". Not enough people react to their stuff.

[@AndyParry82]

Yes!! Villi's voice is incredible on that song.

[@williamosborne9651]

Yes!! HIM is amazing and that’s probably the best version of wicked game!!

[@altairtodescatto]

Hell yeaahh! Since i found HIM cover, it instantly became my favorite cover of the song

[@artofadval]

I'd be curious to see you do a reaction to this same cover but by the band H.I.M. Ville Valo's interpretation is beautiful as well.

[@rohanvd1002]

Love how she reacted just like the rest of us like "... But where's the rest of it??"

[@robertpetre9378]

This is a great cover of wicked game also check out the HIM cover it’s amazing.

[@TheSwedishTraveler]

Stone Sour (which has Corey Taylor from Slipknot as a singer) has also made a cover of the song!

[@cbdawg4242]

If you like this, because it is great, check out Tribute

[@alexthorpe6583]

I have heard a version of Tribute in which they play bits of ‘Stairway to Heaven’, but I suspect someone forced them to take them out.

[@bunyipdan]

Tenacious D's is one of my favorites covers......just way too short......IMHO, Diana Ankundinova performs one of the most amazing covers of Wicked Game

[@b.u.l.1734]

Tenacious D (sort for "Tenacious Defense") is a comedy-rock band that was formed in 1994 by actors Jack Black and Kyle Gass (they were members of the "Actors' Gang", a LA based theatre company founded by Tim Robbins). Since then, they've released 4 albums, an HBO miniseries, a movie and a webseries.

[@RashBandicoot]

Jack Black has my favorite rendition of the National Anthem. Performed at a WNBA game no less. It's incredible!

[@Sinic818]

No wonder why nobody ever saw it.

[@Sir_Alex]

He's driven by pure love of music ... and you can clearly feel it.

[@shadowsephiroth633]

funfact: Jack black writes theme songs or normale songs for the movies where he is in he have wrote peaches from the movie super mario and wrote a jumanji song

[@MrDootDali]

Thank You for reacting to this. I saw Tenacious D. live at San Diego Comic Con in the 2000s, and they were great! Clearly talented, and yes ... primarily comedic. But iI was not aware of this cover (of one of my fave songs) until I saw your excellent reaction video! Gratitude!!!

[@jeffreyphipps1507]

I remember when Chris Isaak's version came out. Radio stations used to get requests for it by the hundreds and sometimes thousands. The song is so haunting.

[@airellopez6896]

Yeah Jack Black is a singer before he was an actor and surprise people when I tell them to listen to his music. Hope you react to more Tenacious.

[@logankerlee]

It's CRAZY to me that you never listened to Tenacious D before! They were pretty popular back in the day. Back when I was in high school Tenacious D came out and yeah, I SUPER dig on it! Tenacious D's flippin' AWESOME! This performance is CLEARLY brief and leaves you wanting more. :P I hope that you continue to listen to more/other Tenacious D performances. As many others have no doubt and will no doubt recommend - I'll go ahead and hop on the bandwagon to suggest that you check out Tribute! The song's flippin' sun and it's from the early days of Tenacious D with both Jack Black and Kyle Gas. They've been working together all throughout! Very happy that you enjoyed this one! :)

[@taylorjohnson1700]

😂😂😂….youngsters! Watching people discover tenacious D! I have messed around and got old!!!

[@jbd4508]

Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny the best movie you can watch in 2023, for sure

[@tonyjackson4078]

His voice is f*cking powerful, to quote a lyric.

[@Pentax67ii]

Love these!!! It will be awesome if you reacted to some bluegrass! Like The last knife fighter (The ballad of the last knife fighter) Nickel Creek (This Side), The Steele Drivers (Blue Side of the Mountain)

[@crazyratlady3026]

Jack Blacks voice is flawless. Dude is fkng talented. And mixed with Kage is just M A G I C

[@johanregalado69]

Tenacious D is the best band in the world!!! PERIOD.

[@jack_m100]

Tenacious D is a tongue in cheek no apology parody. Jack Black's ability to sing makes it work.

[@RhapsodyinGlue]

They had actually been around each other in the 80’s, which is absolutely wild.

[@jordanrowe3601]

its great to see someone discovering something new, especially something like tenacious d, jack black has a very unique voice and they do some very fun and awesome songs, theyve done a film called the pick of destiny

[@kevinsayes]

1:51 love how Kyle smiles here, he knows JB is killing that note

[@kingbrutusxxvi]

I actually heard Tenacious D first and, years later, saw Jack Black in a film. I was like, "Is that the dude from Tenacious D?" I think it might have been "The Jackal" with Bruce Willis.

[@davechattoe9144]

Kile walking through the sands of time where Jack tries to tame that dragon is something needs to be taught thoughout time.

[@tepouogle969]

The old jack Black movie "School of Rock". 🎸

[@LightsCameraJake]

You really need to see the movie School of Rock starring Jack Black who teaches a class of kids to play rock music and sing.

[@jeresundholm]

This is great. Also a Finnish band HIM Have a great cover of this Song. It has a darker ton to it.

[@shaunmorris8176]

I love wicked games ❤❤❤ Jack is so cool too.

[@McLeod2022]

HowthehelldidInotreact to your reaction the first time? Fidiot me. Cycling back through the channel and needed to hear this as re see the react. Perfect song for this day on my side of the screen. Peace and Love to Ja and to yours. [this song was on the first mix tape a GF gave me so there's sentimental smiles happening every time I hear it]

[@maruzencentral]

Well now you have to watch Tenacious D - The Pick Of Destiny" wait til you hear "Dude, I totally miss you" by Tenacious D

[@jpanici]

Greatest band in the world! 🤘😆🤘

[@CiphecDec]

They are amazing!. If you haven't seen it check out the movie Pick of Destiny which I think is written by them. The Pick of Destiny Intro song is amazing also.

[@eduardopatraca3272]

BTW the drummer of the band is none other than Dave Grohl, drummer of Nirvana and lead singer of Foo Fighters

[@dustinsprings3489]

Stonesour has a cover of this song on their first album I think. You should definitely check it out

[@81ghale]

You gotta watch “Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny” now. It’s a movie. Go. Watch it! It’s glorious and Dave Grohl plays a giant guitar playing devil lol

[@Synyster124]

I think you get to the point where you can do something so well that you are able to apply a comedic efffect to it, like Jack Black has over the years

[@CarvalhooFabio]

your facial expression at the end was the best 😍😍😍

[@fzwilling]

Jack Black is a real amazing musician. If you get the chance watch his movie School of Rock :) On another note his Mom was a NASA rocket scientist ^^

[@karenhaggard7094]

Jack Black and Kyle Gass are like the modern version of LeVar Burton and Steve Erwin. Wholesome AF

[@christophermignone6274]

You have to see him do Extreme More Than Words with Jimmy Fallon

[@RhapsodyinGlue]

You gotta hit The Ballad of Hollywood Jack and the Rage Cage. It’s an amazing story strongly based on what happened to them when JB hit the big time. Use the version from this SXM show, it’s incredible.

[@insertgenericusernamehere2402]

Jack blacks guitar playing in this is so good.

[@JoseGonzalez-jd9sp]

Jack black has a great voice and vocal ability, I also love her passion for music you can see her oozing of excitement for great music. I like her, I would like to take her out on a date or something. 😅

[@1thomson]

That's understandable, Jose. But, I think you'd have better luck if your name was Josefa. Ya' know?

[@dagfincarp1113]

Honestly, I'm not a big fan of Jack Black but Tenacious D is the real deal. Can't deny their talent and this a a great rendition of a great song.

[@jasonfisher8529]

I'm with you, Racheal. I have seen Jack Black on content that references Tenacious D, but as a child of the 80s and 90s I just never ran across Tenacious D. Seems crazy (losing my mind with you), but he can actually ... sing? Surprised, but happily so.

[@boots_33]

In all seriousness, if you want a GREAT Tenacious D song, i strongly recommend these few tracks: -Dude (I Totally Miss You) -Tribute -Double Team -The Ballad of Hollywood Jack Jack Black's voice is so good that it makes ME want to learn how to sing. That's how great he is. He even got Meatloaf and Ronnie James Dio to do some verses for their Pick of Destiny movie soundtrack (Kickapoo).

[@michaelhall4222]

awesome, you should now go listen to their city hall album and their movie album. So good.

[@bukeksiansu2112]

Tribute is my favorite TD song.

[@RyeRyeL]

People always forget Jack Black and Kyle Gass are incredibly talented musicians. Jack has always had an amazing voice and it's held up very well as he's aged too

[@marcusone11]

Well this cues you up for a long format reaction.... Tenacious D and the pic of destiny movie, which also features their original music... Highly recommend...

[@tscrillaforilla4175]

Please react to their first album! If you got a kick out of this, I think you'll love it!

[@richardscales9560]

Now this is a tribute

[@Fewminhuman]

You're hair is extremely impressive 🤩

[@jasonvelliquette9058]

You should totally check out Jack Black Jesus Ranch (Bong water). Its a Tenacious D song that Jack performs solo on the movie Bong water and it is awesome.

[@Easyasinstallations]

Jack black and Kyle are so damn good. Love them so much. Damn amazing guys too.

[@P1tcHforK75]

Tenacious D and the pick of destiny. Check it out

[@pudermcgavin4462]

Jaxk black is a classical trained musician and he is amazing

[@frankrobinson5453]

Jack Black's reputation is as a comedian making a joke, but he is seriously talented.

[@ingocernohorsky]

Would love to see a reaction to the Band Poets of the Fall

[@Shiby23]

I honestly don't know if JB would've been here at this level without KG. They had some amazing chemistry in the early days with skits. No JB without KG imo

[@aphexrhubarb]

If you want to hear a stunning version of Wicked Game then look for London Grammar - Wicked Game (copy,paste,enjoy)

[@randy7831]

you should check out the original wicked games by Chris Isaak

[@baron7755]

Whoa

[@richletram539]

So many actors are into music. Keanu Reeves has a band, Johnny Depp has played in bands and played with Alice Cooper. Johnny is a great guitarist. Steve Martin is an Amazing banjo player. I am sure there are many more actors out there that sing and or play instruments. You should do a series of videos of actors in music. 😁

[@troy8979]

U must of heard the song tribute , it’s super great & Dave Grohl is the devil in the clip & also in the movie the pick of destiny

[@dizastro5437]

Dont be dismounted, or discounted, all you Chris Isaak fans. I am with you.

[@BloodRavyne]

There is a tenacious D movie called the pick of destiny also!

[@Ati-MarcusS]

what a voice Mr. Black

[@wyattdartez]

my all time favorite cover of wicked game was by Rebea Massaad. mainly because the guitar solo is incredible

[@lukeellis8793]

You should hear him sing the National Anthem

[@echtigren8188]

If you think this is good, listen to HIM's version. Thank me later. Btw, nobody knew who tenacious D was until 2002 regardless if they were formed in "94"

[@TheReuby667]

Great reaction. ❤ I really recommend anything by them but "Tribute" is probably their biggest so maybe try that next. Their "F### her gently" is hilarious but maybe not safe for KZbin. 🤘

[@toddreed882]

You have GOT to check out Geoff Castellucci’s version!!!

[@r6exrider]

Dave grohl actually ask Jack black to be lead singer of the foo fighters when they started but Jack turned it down.
