YTV The Zone - Nuclear Donkey "Today is Friday" Music Video (My Old VHS Tapes)

[@OilySink91]

Holy shit. Core memory unlocked.

[@leemana352]

I remember my friends would randomly sing this on Fridays in 2002. I never saw this video, only my friend’s rendition of it. Almost 20 years later and ‘Today is Friday, I hope you have your shoes on... Donkey sneakers! It’s Friday!’ will sometimes randomly play in my head on a Friday. Now I finally know where it’s from.🤣

[@ronebonemedia]

the saddest thing here is that they cut out "and Dragonball Z at five thirtyyyy!"

[@tedcarr]

broooooooooo i will never forget that. for me it was at three thirtyyyyy so i had to rush home from school to see it

[@KingGeorge24]

And I thought I was the only one who remembered that.

[@MutoShack]

"Life is hard growing up without clothes on", beautiful wisdom.

[@syeveebersol6718]

I'd do anything to have a time machine to go back to the 90's. How happy was my life then? I took it all for granted.

[@tonytheslugger]

Same here...technology killed society man. I wish I could go back, I didn't know how good it was

[@rachelgrayceful]

The OG Friday anthem

[@guessobsessed]

I turned to my boyfriend and said “today is Friday” then in my head said “i hope you have your shoes on”. Haven’t heard this in ages. Thanks for uploading it

[@randibornstein-sb1mp]

If I would have to guess a year, it would probably be 2001

[@echosixtyfour]

im not sure why this song randomly popped into my head.. but im kinda glad it did.

[@flippedoutkyrii]

HOLY SHIT I thought this was lost media! Still vividly remember this despite last seeing it in 99'!

[@AdmiredDisorder]

I am so glad you uploaded this, I know I still have the album with this song on it somewhere

[@coreyhill681]

I still have Big Fun Party Mix CDs still, I have five of those CDs and all of them had Nuclear Donkey on every one

[@ROMSradio]

I can't believe you found this omg

[@jayqueue6784]

SERIOUSLY!!! WE HAVE HAD THE MP3 FOREVER NOW FINALLY THE ORIGINAL PREMIERE

[@Gashnaw]

omfg. I grew up loving the zone and loved Nuclear donkey, but now i watch this and it is so corny.

[@nik68]

So corny and so Canadian. Love it.

[@Gashnaw]

@@nik68 no shit it's Canadian. Canadian pride.

[@nik68]

Yeah definitely. By 'so Canadian' I mean the aesthetic of how/where it's shot, the production, etc. Similar to the old Organized Rhyme stuff where you could see that and instantly know it was Canadian. Fuck yeah bud :)

[@Dsmbr03]

The best kind of corny. :D

[@Gashnaw]

@WhiteTowerGuard very true

[@mutsortima174]

Exan and Leslie also hosted The Zone for a day shortly after Pat locked himself up in a crate due to Jenny's abrupt departure.

[@coreyhill681]

I still remember YTV Hit List top 20, Great memories

[@al144]

Haven't heard this song in 10+ years yet it's been stuck in my head all week. I finally get to listen because Today is Friday!!!

[@njuta]

Oh bless you for this nostalgia. I think I had this on CD

[@coreyhill681]

I have the CD

[@andrewmoore4296]

What’s the cd called?

[@njuta]

@@andrewmoore4296 big fun party mix

[@JazzDevie777]

Thank you for helping me remember this, I thought it was lost and forgotten to time like a whole bunch of other stuff zone related

[@BenoHourglass]

Doesn't help that there's another song called "Friday."

[@sunilpermaul7876]

I miss the Zone.

[@Trikenut012]

Dude I've been looking for something with Nuclear Donkey for like 30 years dang near, The Zone is My childhood

[@SuperIchi]

Today was the first time I've listened to this song since the year the album came out ...yep, it's just as bizarre and baffling as I remember

[@meghan9436]

I just found this today! So, that’s what happened to the balloon chairs from the Hit List!

[@m.t.2224]

I listen to this every Friday. I might be autistic

[@AJkiwi14]

Holy nostalgia this is amazing!

[@ijustgottahotdog]

LOL I used to play this all the time when I was a kid!

[@JudasRapidFire]

Holy shit... been a few years since I seen this. Thanks for uploading!

[@themastersb]

I still hum this to myself on Fridays.

[@cydneyb707]

Omigosh all the feels!!!! My childhood is all coming back to me now! 🤣🤣

[@ashtree80]

I feel warm ^_^ I wonder if Pat and Jenny were friends in real life....

[@Theartfuldoodlerio]

Damn, it was so easy to find this.

[@leslieelizabeth3024]

To this day, when people say "today is Friday" here we go.

[@shawnadyment]

I wonder what everyone is up to these days from this video. This was a classic when I was a kid

[@donald347]

I had this album... I had, this album...

[@annhatchet3799]

I miss the 90’s

[@CamdenMcInnis]

My favorite memories as a kid was watching YTV during the Holiday months, especially October for Halloween.....The family channel was awesome for that too.

[@ClassicGuy975]

They go all in on Halloween

[@大疯狼]

90's ahaha I remember

[@noticias6111]

This might be a stretch but if this was reworked into a jazz piece, I could see ‘donkey sneakers’ being retained as a nonsense lyric like w/the song ‘salt peanuts’. __ No country for old farriers ;| I remember how in another video Kelly appreciated watching some kids do a cover of this song for a school talent show or such.

[@slythecat4469]

To that one dislike... I hope you have no clothes buddy!

[@robrick9361]

This goes to show that some things should remain memories.

[@stefrondi1339]

No one else my age remembers this song 😢 . People thought I was crazy but now I know, I was right, this song exists!!!! 😂

[@ClassicGuy975]

@stef rondi Same as me they dont know this song and the other song called "The Zone" kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqnVl2tnbq-Vl5o

[@tonytheslugger]

I'm in my early 30s and I now have a 1 year old son. I just told him how o ised to listen to this song as a kid and played this loud and he started dancing to it smiling and laughing...little things like this silly song as a kid is what made the 90s and early 2000s so amazing. Some things will never die like these good memories

[@TKGIOIA]

cute memory

[@ClassicGuy975]

do u like maestro or egghead? the maestro and egghead appear in the song

[@KnickKnax90s]

My old jam!

[@jumpship88]

0:52 the original breaking bad duo

[@jeffx9149]

Yesterday was Tuesday. Clean skelter brim, YTV 1999 brake lesser evil.

[@aprilheyman5309]

friday song. happy friday

[@ThatTalkingDogGuy]

That's my wife! :)

[@nik68]

You married Pat Kelly? I'm jealous.

[@CourtxSchultz]

Really?!

[@ThatTalkingDogGuy]

@@CourtxSchultz Jenni (Katie), yes! :)

[@EldestSauce]

@@ThatTalkingDogGuy is there a way I can contact her?

[@Trikenut012]

So do you have just like a bunch of old VHS tapes with old shows taped?

[@djentlemanb]

Why the fuck did i even think of this while listening to death metal

[@Garl_Vinland]

Unironically slaps

[@PaulC112]

Watching this on a Wednesday... Crap wrong day

[@bradbonnell]

Shoes on gang

[@jdaddytv3247]

Oh my gawd.

[@MIKERPHONE]

YES!!!

[@MIKERPHONE]

I remember this being a Zone and Hit List crossover for the launch of Big Fun Party Mix. I'd guess late February to early March 2000.

[@newersify]

haha yes

[@TheCaptainOracle]

Classic

[@sheehan666]

How many drugs?

[@BigBoss30486]

[@antoniomontana2034]

Holy crap this is so cringeworthy 😆 I used to watch YTV all the time and remember the hosts who came afterwards Sugar and Carlos (who now works for Entertainment Tonight Canada) but damn this is hard to watch 😬

[@KingGeorge24]

Man even back when it came out it made me cringe. And I was only 7!
