Dude, it’s Australian Jack Black.
Jack Black sings "Kiss from a Rose" on Americal Idol.
One of my favorite parts of this year's Oscar. Jack Black and John C. R ...
This guy plays and sings several pop songs by using the same 4 chords. ...
Jack Conte is quite talented.

pretty crappy reason to love being austalian. let us know how you like it when a great white shark bites your leg off while a dingo eats your baby on the beach. dont forget the life gaurd getting knocked out by a kangaroo right as his stocking wearing ass gets down from his post. only one of your celebrities chose to stay in australia and he died from a damn sting ray spine to the heart.. gday mate.
FUCKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
go shoot ur school cunt
Thats right, just try to use Australian stereotypes to mock us. ‘Duck’.. you really are witty.
Quite down convict.
the inbreed doesn’t understand you knox, keep it simple, 1 syllable at a time
i love being from earth, where a bunch of fucking animals speak condescendingly towards each other because of different locations on the globe, when the truth is if you open up your mind just a tad, you’d realize not everyone is a fucking stereotype.
You’re just cranky because you’re not Australian
it’s not always the same 4 chords, I mean not always the same order. first it’s kind of C-am-F-G, then it changes to em-C-G-D or something. great vid anyway.
The chords are E-Bm-C#m-A.
It’s not really specific chords so much as it is a progression. It’s I V vi IV
you could not be more wrong
These chords are F C Dm A# You can transpose that to fit your needs. For instance it is the same a G D Em C. Somebody with more music theory would be able to tell you. The minor would always be the third chord though in this progression.
So now that I’m actually thinking about it, I was up half a step. E B C#m A Final answer.
I thought they were actually F U C K Y O U.
muaahahuahu
Yeah, it’s I V vi IV. The one chord, five chord, and four chord are all major, whereas the six is thrown in there in the middle because it leads itself for the four chord, which then leads the four chord back to the one. I was a music major, and it’s shocking how long I had to think about this after a year of not touching music. hahaha
Basically, every song was transposed to be into this progression, because they all follow the same pattern, but in a different key. This video=win.
old, but worth the rewatch
WTF! Nothing by Status Quo? Their entire repertoire is famous for based on four chords because it’s all they learnt to play…
They even managed to get a couple of good songs out of it too.
Amazed there’s no oasis in there too
usually see this start from playing 3 oasis songs at once..
Collide by Howie Day.
Lol so true.
Chicken Bone?
They forget one, Glisserine by Bush
WOW AWESOME
I can’t believe they don’t mention Pachabels ‘Canon in D’, which inspired the original rant by Rob Paravonian that these guys have (skillfully) copycated.

Didn’t they say they had been doing this for forty years? Not that I really know, but still.
Do they even look 40 years old to you?
This one is decidedly better, granted.
That was amazing xD
Obviously very clever - just wish I understood it!
Jack black? more like a chubby Deryck Whibley from sum 41
i WILL BLOW UP YOUR FUCKIN’ “CAPS LOCK”S !!!!!!!!
So if somebody on this wall of posts will get off their goddamn soap box… could you possibly tell me which 4 chords they are?
It’s a I IV vi V progression, they were in the key of E major, so they were using E A C#m B
Wow I was just showing this to a friend - I wasn’t thinking when I posted this the other day, it’s actually I V vi VI so the chords are E B C#m A
too bad dimitri martin did this same exact thing years ago.
its definitely funny but they stole the idea from the comedy genius demitri
This is absolutely hilarious and soooo true!
Aaron - it’s a I IV vi V progression, they were particularly using E A C#m B
totally stole this whole bit from rob paravonian… almost word for word and sequence of songs.
SOMEONE LIST OUT EVERY SONG FOR THIS PLEASE. I want to listen to them all in a row so bad, but not bad enough to do it myself since I actually don’t know that many of these songs
I am selling my EU Wow account (2 80’s +alts) PM me for my mail and we can talk
Thats just sad.
Daryl Braithwaite didn’t write “The Horses”. Rickie Lee Jones did.
so true, metal ftw!
MON-EEEEEZZZZ
Its funny that this is still relevant. Frank Zappa made this joke like 40 years ago about all of the pop music of the 50’s.
