Lyrics:
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch
You really are a heel
You're as cuddly as a cactus
And as charming as an eel
Mr. Grinch
You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel
Just face the music you're a monster, Mr. Grinch
Your heart's an empty hole
Your brain is full of spiders
You've got garlic in your soul Mr Grinch
I wouldn't touch you with a
Thirty-nine and a half foot pole
You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch
You've got termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness of a seasick crocodile
Mr Grinch
Well given the choice between the two of you I would take the the seasick crocodile
You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch
You're a nasty wasty skunk
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
And your soul is full of gunk
Mr Grinch
The three best words I would use to describe you are as follows and I quote
Stink! Stank! Stunk!
#SmallTownTitans #MrGrinch #HybridSessions - Hudba
This guy's voice is insane
Ridiculous!
Awesome
I know
Right!?
Beastly
If every Christmas song was like this I wouldn’t complain that they start playing it right after Halloween.
Viking holiday music sounds like this
Halo Rijbroek after listening to this song for the first time I’d definitely couldn’t agree with you more about this
YES DUDE I LOVE THIS SHIT
"SHIT" Is Exactly what this is!!! I would never listen to Christmas music again if it ever even resembled anything like this at ALL!!
@@coolluke3540 well then go home and cry
These guys really need to just make a whole album of Christmas songs sung like this one
I'd buy it!
@@robynpitman9605 Me too, and i hate christmas! :D
Probably the best version of this song
I think they did
You mean like Twisted Sister did?
Five years later, I still love this, and share it with everyone I know. It's simply one of the best versions of the song - Period.
Agree 100%
I have to hear this every year. Now I'm going to go watch the actual original show 😅👍🤘🏻
It's the #1 for me❤
this guys voice is lower than my self esteem
LOL!
😂🤣🤣
Lmfaoo
😂😂😂😂
I wanna laugh at that but I feel like it would be more appropriate to just say I hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year because you really deserve it.
If only stores would play this kind of Christmas music.
Yes brother! 🤘
Ther would be karrens stopping it
It's called Spencer's and Hot Topic lmao
This is going to be playing on my Christmas train running around the tree this year, gonna be epic!
I hear that, I work at a store and it's all shitty Christmas music and as soon as I went on break I threw this on
Even the Grinch can appreciate a solid bassline
2024 anyone?
I just found this!
O yes, regularly!
Yep. Still here!
Let’s go!
Every year, any time of year. 😁 BEST. VERSION. EVER! 🤘
I come back every Christmas because this is the only acceptable Christmas song
Jacob Smith what about jack black and Jason segal little drummer boy?
Wtf. We have the same name. Whats your middle?
Corey Taylor if I ain't drunk then it ain't Christmas
Try Bloodywood Angry Santa. It's hilarious.
this is indeed an acceptable Christmas song! Merry Christmas!! :) Thanks for sharing.
It is now Nov 1st again, time to play this every single day for 2 months straight.
#SAME
Hahahaha...SAME HERE!!!!!!
Same!
*hour
Who thought this was Finna be a NNN comment
Small Town Titans should do a whole album of Christmas songs performed with the added metal twist.
It would be a Christmas album for those of us that have a darker side, those that need a little anger in their music to take the edge off the holiday merriment.🤘🎄🎅🤘
Soo truuuuue
His voice is so hauntingly good
This song has no business slapping as unbelievably hard as it does
I think it does because any remix of Mr. Grinch is my jam
yet here it is doing exactly that. 🤘🏻
This is exactly what the song needed...like Metallica hardened up "Whisky in a Jar". Some songs need to be hardened...have y'all seen the new cartoon video they did this year!!? Freaking awesome!
But yet....it Slaps🎸🎸🎸🎸🕺
The sonic tone of ....everything... is just spot on.
2020 this song still rocks
True!
Especially the Stink, Stank, STUNK!!
And it is perfect for 2020!
@@dianaklien1560 So true
This song has, and will continue to rock FOREVER 🤘🏻🎅🏻🤘🏻
Christmas 2022 - My kids and I still jamming out since y'all released this. Please do some more Christmas songs!
Getting ready for listening in 2023 😊
This man's voice is badass af!
This is possibly the single best grinch rendition ever
check out Lindsey sterlings version, also amazing
ikr
Hip Heavy Lip does a good one.
More like best Christmas song cover in general
This one has such a fantastic presence to it..
Tho Tay Zonday did an incredible one which his low tone rivals Boris Karloff's big time.
Metalheads are the most supportive group of people I've ever seen
Country fans are loyal too.. I'm a country girl but this group has me hooked on them.
Always will.....always will be 🤘
Well... Queenies. Queenies are the ones that feel like family. We are all the mommies and Freddie Mercury and John Deacon and Roger Taylor and Brian May are our babies. It’s insane. God I love that fandom.
It's kinda hard to be mean to each other when we're listening to good music
This cover is so perfectly suited to the material, it’s as if the song were waiting for Small Town Titans to achieve its destiny.
I was today years old when I heard this for the first time. Why have I never heard of them before?? That singer has some badass chops!! 💜
SAME. I blame CZcams for not keeping me in the loop.
Listening to His voice felt better than putting a Q tip in my ear
Dray PurplePenguinization he’s got a great voice but I personally didn’t like it for this song. Idk I guess I’m kind of an originalist
Hahaaaa
Lmao!!!! That’s saying a lot too!!!
Yes!!
🤣
His vocal range is insane
That's what she said!
@@MrParkerman6 wth
This should be the theme song for every future Grinch movie.
This is now a family tradition to play this song at all December family gatherings
The kids love to dance to it!
We need to get the attention of Jimmy Fallon, I need to see them rip this on the Tonight Show b4 Christmas!
Working on it! wish us luck. thanks Darrell
Let Fallon play with his stupid toys....this is real talent
📹📹
That Would Be Awesome These Guys are The Real Deal!
So Far I Like Everything They Do!
I’m not gonna lie...
this was so awesome it made me cry a little bit.
Legit he ropes you into the emotions of the song the second he opens his mouth 👌
Right so good his voice so deepp
I was the 300th like
Girl same!!!
@@mattbrown5474Im a man
By far the best version of the song, ever. I teach high school behavioral special ed and I played this for my students today. They also loved the song and changing vocal range.
PLEASE put out a Christmas album. WISCONSIN loves ya.
My grandson is special needs. He found this last night and kept playing it over and over. He loved it
I was not expecting this to be nearly as good as this is.
Band: How much vocal range should we add to this song....?
Singer : Yes
Lol
No. Stop this. Plz.
bergey911 stop what?
This comment format.. it’s so overused and unoriginal. Just stop.
bergey911 how much do you want to make useless complaints about things that effect you in no way, but also contribute nothing productive or original at the same time?
bergey911:YES
This guy can sing both way lower and way higher than me. Life ain't fair.
😂😂😂😂
Every year I share this with anyone willing to listen. This is a knock-it-out-of-the-park version of Mr. Grinch. Always in awe of how clean the vocals are, the almost sultry blues backbone... just slithers along, ya know? Incredible version, thanks for doing it.
we did karaoke at my office party last christmas and i pulled this one out lol
The best version ever ! Of course the original is awesome too!
I do the same. Share it every year bc it's a masterpiece
I found this song a couple years ago, now I'm playing it for the old folks at a day center, most of them like it.
And the rest all stink stank stunk
The 1.3k people who disliked are as charming as an eel
They're a bad banana with a,
Greasy black peel!
They are mean ones
😂😂😂😂
They’re as cuddly as a cactus
I wouldnt touch them with 39 and half foot pole.
when he screams "seasick crocodile" and "stunk" I could literally feel that
I love the snare head, it's not been changed in a couple years, looks like he's been eating french fries from it, and it sounds effin' great!
Musicianship at it's finest.
This needs to be in the next grinch movie
Jumbo Slice
Exactly. I've had enough of this stupid rap trend. This sound fits the grinch so much better then that rapper they had do this song
End credits, or the scenes where he's gathering all the materials for his nefarious plan
Hollywood has horrible taste in music. They're so obsessed with Rap music that forcefully shove horrible Rap music into movies that are suitable to have Rock & Metal songs. They never give other music genres a chance. Disturbed released a bonus track song entitled "This Venom" & that song fits well for the new Venom movie but instead Hollywood has no brain cells whatsoever to shove a Eminem song in the movie. This is exactly why everybody hates Rap music. It's garbage, it takes no talent, & it's only made to $ELL.
Sorry it was not.
@@jonnysimpson093 Seriously! Why does every movie have to end in rap since the first Addams family movie in 1991? (Which featured MC Hammer btw)
He sounds like he’d be a good Disney Super Villan
Scar for the new Lion King
Omg yes
Yeah
I 2nd this!!! That voice is amazing
Disney doesn't deserve such a great voice.
Now this what I call a Christmas song with an heavy metal edge to it. 🤘😎🤘
Everything about this song is just pure gold!!
He has THE PERFECT voice for this. Literally born to do this.
would be interested if he could make that deep vocie live or it only works after preperation
Yes, designed to do this.
Absolutely the best cover of this song. Hands down. These guys need to be made into a famous band. Who else agrees?
Abso-Frigen-luuuutely!!!!!!! Who do we talk to about that? Making them into a famous Band? =)
Amazing vocals, super tight arrangement. Fucking awesome.
Does anybody remember when Tay Zonday was the new best for this song.... yeah, forget that guy.
My local rock station is playing this often. It's put the band on the map for me & many others, and want to hear more.
I totally agree these guys rock
You need a quality speaker/ headphones to really hear the amazing sound coming from a song that you never knew could be so good. I listened on my phone and there is so much sound missing. Then I put it on my JBL extreme and the whole song comes to life. Wish I could share it with everyone like this.
My band opened for these guys back in like september and they played this live it was hands down the coolest/funniest/most badass song I’ve ever heard played live
Would love to see them live man, they sound as good live as recorded?
Also that's sick you opened for them ✌️
@@flibbertygibbon6745 definitely as good as recorded and they’re super entertaining as well
@@jacobhoopes2108 hopefully they come to Scotland one day. I'd like to hear your band aswell, anyone that can open for them would be worth a listen. Keep grinding my friend
AND....if you notice a 3 member band....cranking out that kind of sound. HATS OFF!!!!!!!!!
BODY BUILDER333 dude right!!!!!!!!!
So was Nirvana... And Rush. Ever hear of the Power Trio?
They're Canadian...that's how they do it up there....3 is all they need....triumph is a Canadian trio as well with epic sound...they were very underrated
That's all it takes dude. Production is also a thing
@@DylNyeTheDrummerGuy true but it also depends on what your producing..if it's pure crap then all it is is crap...but these guys rock
My teacher said that this was the only Christmas song he liked and now I feel in danger
Why? I think he might like this
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This should be the only Christmas music allowed to be played.
Don't.
He knows what he's talking about.
It's the only Xmas song that I like also it's the most metal before metal was cool
It’s not Christmas for me until I listen to this a million times! Vocals are insane. Merry Christmas, Titans ❤
This song is just as awesome in June as it is in December.
This deserves to be on every rock station right about now.
Patrick Fournier it’s likely that it’s too good to be put on the air. It’s really good, we want to hear it, it will disrupt or alter time if Stairway to Heaven ends or Freebird begins at a different time of the day for once in our FM lifetime!
Patrick Fournier oh yeah I definitely agree with you there
I somehow heard it on a classic rock station yesterday, I’m glad I did because it’s the first time I’ve heard it and boy am I glad I did hear it!
@@kenwagner2672 Glad to hear that STT is finally get some airtime.
Trying to get Oklahoma's 100.5 fm the KATT to play this
This guy has the most versatile voive I’ve ever heard .
Your right he does have a nice voive.
Amazing voice, but Geoff from Voiceplay tops him in versatility and range. He hits a B4 and E1 within 10 seconds of each other
@@phyrexiancoffee6324 That's nice dear.
Now kindly explain why some people will prefer one singer over another.
Oh yeah, and fuck Geoff from Voiceplay.
Seriously... the more I think about your inane comment... It's people like you that sterilize art.
@@wrongfootmcgee Agreed!! William is a Douche Bag
He didn't say one is better than the other other he just said Geoff has a wider range lmao
Y'all need to calm down
Best Xmas song. ever. Period.
I'm here again! Every year! LOVE LOVE LOVE this rendition.....LOVE these guys! ❤👍👏
"Cruella De Ville" by y'all would be awesome
I would in fact pay large amounts of money for that. Cruella is an amazing song that doesn't exist outside of the dialogue-interupted old version with crappy sound quality, and some horrendous version that some Disney teen manufactured celeb made.
@smalltowntitans yessssss
If she doesn’t scare you…
Oh yes!!! Something. Anything from the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
3 full octaves of range in this video. jesus
Guys. I don’t even know why, but this song is so incredibly much better than I can understand how. I sincerely hope that you enjoyed making it as much as I did listening, and I do continuously since finding this. It’s just so much fun.
I keep coming back to this, for obvious reasons. But, every time, I am more impressed by how tight the vocals are. Just on another level, unmatched dexterity, range, and power. Thank you.
Why do I like this? Why am I here? How did I get here?
The red pill!
SAME HAHAHA
Better questions for you. What IS here? What is ME?
Tbh idk either
For the first time ever I actually like some Christmas music.
Right!
You don't like TSO??!!!
Theocracy christmas music and august burns red
@@punkdrummr2000 not bad
@@bryanb9907 Glad you enjoyed.
The fact that it's July and I've played this 4 times today says a lot. Fucking badass song
A Christmas masterpiece. Pure and simple. A legendary rendition by these guys.
I do not understand why Small Town Titans are not main stream. The vocal range is off the charts, and the band synergy blows away most current bands.
Mainstream "where bands go to be picked apart and die"
His voice is superb!! How he maintains the high notes so long is amazing.
Maybe because they're not ghetto rappers? Or twinkle toes and rainbows? Or perhaps because they can actually play their instruments and vocalize sans auto tune and auto vocals electronic masking and covering crap ??
@Buster Brown I'm wishing they were closer to where I live because I'd love to see them live!!!
I love these guys. I've Seen them a few times live and they sound just as good,if not better.
It's now December 20th ,2021 and these dudes have still yet to receive the recognition deserved for this song... Never has been a better version of the song period
this was posted 11 months ago in 2022?
Never has been a better version honey agree Nov.29 2022
1000% correct
@@Fishygaming12 the repost was from 2021 .... BUT The song and video actually was originally released in 2020
Dec. 12, 2022. I just found this in my feed.
His voice is unbelievable. Hes good on purpose. Id dare to bet a mix of natural talent and voice training. The way he deepens his voice and hits high . Hes friggen unbelievable
I dislike most modern music. I dislike most covers of older music.
This however was straight FIRE... nice instrumentals, not to over the top. The vocals, OMFG, why is this guy not filling arenas with that weapons grade set of pipes.
I swear to god I am adding this to my workout playlist!
if your not playing this at your Christmas party than I'm not coming.
It's not even a party if you don't play this
Come on over then!!
I’m sorry but it just kills me every time. I don’t understand how people don’t know the difference between there/their/they’re, and then/than and your/you’re... It’s so instilled in me, and I was just an average student. Sorry, but it’s particularly annoying and somewhat embarrassing.
@@iamoffended8616 Just because someone types it incorrectly doesn't mean they don't know the difference. Get a grip and come down off off that 39-1/2 foot poll "you're" propping yourself up on.
Michael Juarez No, I’m definitely not “propping myself up”.
Why do I picture Jim Carrey's Grinch absolutely enjoying this?
Because he would
@@spencerkrake11 i was gonna say that
Jim carry actually likes metal, and rock, and his scream are pretty insane.
lone wait Jim Carrey screams???
@@entomologyandherpetology3352 czcams.com/video/T9rdQdz7WRA/video.html yea, here ya go.
Still the best version of this I've heard. Something about his voice invokes both the big band voice of the original and the current arrangement. Gets me every time.
Instead of classic Christmas music For the holidays, it’s just this on repeat.
The Jim Carrey Grinch would jam to this
Best rendering of this song I have ever heard.
You might to check out the original "alt" version by the Whirling Dervishes. It was pretty popular in the early nineties. Not as heavy as this one but maybe a bit more "musical"? Killer brass.
czcams.com/video/PjmTkQk0zA4/video.html
The fact that the drummer is wearing a I'm a Paul Heyman guy shirt on is great...and this song is sick af
Greatest cover ever❤️🤘
That guy's voice sounds better than most of the heavy metal bands today
Mychal Seymour Oh because we can actually understand what he’s saying?
I wish we had this guy on Avenged Sevenfold instead lmao
Not true, but he is good.
@@Irishluckily I was thinking about this too, I wish he was with A7X
@@Irishluckily i prefer shadows voice, cobsidering thats the sound for A7X, theyre both good vocalists, but i wiukdnt trade them.
Wow I’m watching this right now it’s December 13th 2019 and this guys voice is out of this world.
New fan here they are really good!
Cindy Butler doesn’t his voice confuse you a little? I would’ve never guessed by looking at him, that he could pull this off.
Dec 17 2019!
Bo Duke same! Love this!
I just found this group last week.
This band has put together all the ingredients to absolutely slay the music scene. This song put chills down my spine. Keep it up Titans!
My official way to kick off the season I don't really care for . Listening to a great charismatic group and a non less great song !
Thank you Gentlemen !
The whole song is awesome but those vocals are absolute fire, killed it man!!
Don't understand why you didn't get a heart vote and thumbs up from these guys because your comment is spot on ... according to me at least. 🤓
Wooow😳
@@Lauravokey1912😊😊
It would be way better if the music didn't drown out the vocals
@@MannequinMG I like the mix.
ahhh yes, it's December again. Now I don't have to be judged for blasting this at home.
It's about that time to share this 2000 times again
Dude.. for a Christmas song, still gives me chills, the variations of vocals, the passion, the band. I look forward to Christmas so I can blast this song lol
Found this on accident yesterday and it’s the most amazing accident I’ve ever heard!! My new favorite version of this song & his vocals are INSANE!!!
That's how I'm feeling right now
I’m in love
i found this i think last year? maybe the year before? idk, all i know is that i remembered it existed a couple minutes ago and now im here because its Christmas and this is a great cover
Same here! What a song!!
My mom's 80-year-old longtime friend of over 60 years is the one who turned me on to this version. She loves it so much and listens to it often! So fitting for this year. Good riddance to 2020!
This guy loves and respects language! I can hear every consonant. He even rolled his "r"s. Amazing!
He trilled them but close enough.
Good ear my man!
I really love the way the says "skunk" in the song!!!! Just something I noticed
Boris Karloff and Ravenscroft would approve!
The Grinch song !!!!! You guys killed it !!!!!
Ive watched this video every year about a thousand times since it came out and it never gets old....
Y’all wanna do Oogie Boogie song?
That needs to happen
Kidnap the santi claus- korn. Would be beyond legendary! I hope they see these!! Would be a Christmas gift!!
Most Definitely
Please do!!!!
Yesss
I was at work yesterday and told someone “ya know I don’t really like ‘ you’re a mean one, mr grinch’, it’s my least fav Christmas song probably” and she grabbed her phone and played this and..... y’all changed my mind !
At 62 yrs old- this is my new favorite Xmas song! THANK YOU!!
This is the best Mr Grinch EVER!!!!
If this could be played at my retail job instead of those annoying Christmas pop songs, I could actually survive my shift without wanting to cut my ears off lol. 👌🤘
just connect your phone ;) we wont tell haha. thanks laura!
I was just thinking the same thing.. I wouldn't want to pluck my eyes out if they would play this.
The shop I work at, you can listen to all the heavy metal you want to. I love it!
Make your way up to lower manafmgenent and change the station. This is on my holiday playlist for my crew.
Amen
Any dislikes must’ve been from people that don’t like rock/metal to begin with. That was freakin awesome.
Dustin Graziotti jus music in general..the genre doesn’t matter🎶🎶🎶 those dislikes know nothing about “MUSIC”🎵period.🤙🤙😂💀😂
Ok pye pye🏃🏽♂️---💨💩
Sepeti Funaki I agree. I was in a few bands and grew up playing guitar. I like music from all walks of life, but rock just has a special place for me. It takes more skill in my opinion to perform day in and day out with actual instrument in hand.
I dont even like metal but this is awesome.
I wonder if you notice that while Phil is singing "you're a mean one..." and explaining how precisely,
it's undoubtful that the mean one is Phil, and with orders of magnitudes higher than Grinch :)
Not just his incredible voice, but the way he acts out the lines. I haven't been so attracted to someone in years 😅🖤🖤
Absolutely perfect. This man's voice is insanely good. No idea how this band hasn't gone mainstream.
Cover bands don't usually go national

@@cathleendonahue8730fame on fire is pretty big.
Me First and the Gimme Gimmes have had a great career@@cathleendonahue8730
A quarter million monthly listeners is basically mainstream for a rock/metal band nowadays.
Finally the real singer has risen. This dudes vocals are completely mind blowing and the band is freaking amazing.
I even years later can’t get over how badass this is. Damn. 🎄🦨 🐊 stinky crocodile. Lol😅 freaking rocks it.
I gave them a ride during a motorcycle rally. They were very genuine individuals. I've watched this probably 40×
Anyone other grinches come back here after Christmas just to listen to this beautiful anthem again ♥️🔥
July
September
Yup
Easter
Eeeyyyup. Every year.
This is how the grinch should be played. Best version ever!
That growl at the end has been scaring away Santa since 2017.
The face my daughter makes imitating the face you make when when you sing “STANKKKK!” Is hilarious 😂
