Never heard this version before. Pretty damn legendary. Wish they could genuinely live forever and grace us with these gifts until the end of humanity.
This audience actually reacted perfectly to this performance - they laughed when they were meant to, listened through all the verses, and even shouted some "woos" during the hard a cappella part, giving The D props on that stunning musicianship. And then cheered at the end wildly. Supreme!
Johnny Carcinogen I sometimes wish that he’d shave it so we could the classic kg look but it’s fine if he doesn’t cuz the beard look does work well considering jacks doing the same thing.
The tribute was always to Stairway To Heaven. The way they sing "and we're playing the greatest song in the world. I'm talking about Tribute" at the end exactly like "and she's buying a stairway to heaven" confirms it.
So, Jack Black is like wow. His taste in music is impeccable. He is a devotee of the two greatest songs ever created by human beings. (Stairway & Megalovania)
Love the way these guys effortlessly dance all over the line between comedy and actual epic folk/rock songs! Great storytelling, musicality, and stage presence! Gotta love the D!
Johnny John you’re right I love it when he voices a thick headed stereotyped karate panda, or when he plays a cartographer in a mystic jungle with the personality of a basic white girl.
Same here , so i posted here for everyone to watch. Btw , i remember your profile , when i was searching for kyle gass band back in the days , i saw your videos dude ! That's awesome , and also 16 riffs guitar cover , great videos :P
Still better than 99.99% of the pop stuff that gets pumped out. Grats for the amazing concept of "it's just a tribute". **Just saw Leah M's comment. LOL thumnbs up Leah.
First off I remember watching this last call episode live and when they played Hornet's Nest at the end of this episode I was like, heck that song looks easy I can play that. Grabbed the acoustic, started jamming along with them since it's a simple 7 5 3 cord structure and there were many other tenacious d songs I learned just from random live performances I would catch on TV like Wonder boy on conan, etc. Anyway the interesting thing about this additional verse of the song is it proves what I knew all along. He talks about it just being him and Kyle when they wrote this song and that this song, was the best song. I knew it!!!! It is not simply a tribute to the greatest song in the world but rather THE greatest song in the world!!! This confirms tribute is indeed the greatest song IN THE WORLD!!!!
They couldn't remember THE GREATEST SONG IN THE WORLLLLDD, alllriiight, so they made a Tribute, but it did actually sound as The Greatest Song in the World !!!
@@birodshrestha3336 they're saying that they wrote the best song in the world, but they can't remember it. It's not referring to any songs in existence

Jack looks so young here! Kage remains a God incapable of aging
He turned 40 on his 18th birthday and hasn't aged a day since.
Nay. They be but men who rock.
@@wieski5754 lol
It's like kage aged so fast as a kid and lost all his hair. Then God was like shit I fucked up and blessed him with immortal powers lol
The Rage Kage refuses to age
Kyle is actually a remarkably talented musician. I love these videos where he shines.
He went to Juilliard
I know I'm late but KG is the "youngest graduate of the Juilliard School of Music with a degree in classical guitar studies at the age of thirteen"
@@KFN1A2A3 how dare you say something that I also agree with? Ya bastardo!
I'm still waiting for his children's book about the tribe of asparagus children.
So is Jack Black!
3:49 clearly the best moment in music history
THE FLIGUGIGO LORE WILL LIFE FOREVER
@@legn7324 truer words have never been spoken
Back when late night TV had rocking music
okrajoe yah I can't even watch the band's on late night tv anymore it's all crap
Yeah. It really has gone to shit. Maybe they will make a return with their new album.
a few months ago we had slayer
Nah
back before the music industry in general became homogenized hip pop.
That extra verse in the middle. CHILLS
Didn't they originally intend to use different verses every time they performed it live?
sounds just like roadie

Ten. D was like let's sing a goofy ass song but sound better that like 99 999% of new songs
leah messick JB and KG could take turns at shitting on the stage and would sound better than most modern songs
Listen to Gojira of you want mind blowing newer rock
P much
KennyRGB gojira is no rock. It is just same suck ass metal that have been made last 20 years.

this is just how all audiences were before 9/11. (lying, but it's funnier if you accept it.)

love the people in the front at 3:04
ROACH DOGG
They knew the rock was coming
Lee was definitely one of them.
poisoncurls LEE! 🤘
*ROCK*
🤘
Damn, Kyle nailing those harmonies!
That’s got to be the best version, to get that much feeling into a song without bass or drums, the use of dynamics and space was amazing man!
This was not the best version this is just a tribute
The best vanquished a shiny demon
KG hasn't aged a bit.
You should watch some of their new stuff. Kg is all white now lol
Legend has it... Satan sent him to our planet to contain the fire & fury jack coukd never contain
he was always 50
Idk he has this incredible beard now...
Johnny Carcinogen I sometimes wish that he’d shave it so we could the classic kg look but it’s fine if he doesn’t cuz the beard look does work well considering jacks doing the same thing.
It’s metal meets rock meets acoustic meets the Jaz scat. There’s so many different aspects to this song and I love every part.
Seriously underrated dueling acoustics.
Best band in the world =)
Best band in the world =)... Tribute
Literally
Is nirvana
Tribute.
Aero Zeppelin lol you don’t know tf you say
That verse = the inspiration for Roadie?
HalfManHalfDuck
I was thinking the same thing 😁
Litterly first thing I thought when it started
I knew that sounded familiar!
Also think about the song "The Road" They end suuper similar- that song and Roadie
same flow
It’s 2019 and I’ve only just heard this version. I get to fall in love with it all over again !!! Whooop
James Young listening first time to this version too and its fire
4 years later pick of destiny would come out
Word
Same in 2020.
Same. I love that there's so many options to enjoy just 1 song. TENACIOUS D RULES!
4:04 Kyle is such a fucking poet..
Kyle wearing a shirt with a pic of Johnny Cash flipping the bird. AWESOME!
This is obviously just after Jablinski left Kickapoo.
Tatakai no Kami just after arriving in Hollywood
Jack Black lookin thin!
yeah in like 2002 lmao
I cant tell if he looks better hot or looks better as a chubby comedian
Why is that relevant or important?
Scott Anderson exactly
Scott Anderson He’s just pointing it out. If you don’t want to hear it then don’t pay attention to the comment.
Jables looks so young! They may be a "joke" band, but he's always been such a great singer and KG is a great guitarist.
The tribute was always to Stairway To Heaven. The way they sing "and we're playing the greatest song in the world. I'm talking about Tribute" at the end exactly like "and she's buying a stairway to heaven" confirms it.
That's also exactly what they play in the HBO version
I believe the origin of tribute came over a debate of what each believed was the greatest song ever, I imagine stairway was among those discussed
they play the beginning of the stairway to heaven riff at the end of tribute...
This is such a fun song to play with a couple friends sitting around a campfire.
This is how to entertain. And how to perform. Masterclass.
0:35 This is why Kyle is the best guitar player alive!
I didn't get that part?
The three guys in the very front at 3:00 THEY UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT
Back when late night TV had rocking music
He is singing in time with roadie at the end.
Best band in the world =)
I love this version and I love that I heard after I've already listened to the album version hundreds of times.
the best song in the world trying to remember the best song in the world
Two guitars and two voices for the best song on the world 😎
Hundred yrs later still gives chills.this band changed everything
Epic. The sound guys must love them. Everything just goes directly into the PA. Acoustic guitars and mics. No amps, effects, racks or any of that.
Awesome performance. So well done!
so good
the first time watching this... so good
i never thought back then that i would say this now, but those guys were looking in pretty good shape back then!
Damn Its the only one in CZcams .Thnx Man...
Still after all these years... so, so good... 👹🎸💣
So, Jack Black is like wow.
His taste in music is impeccable. He is a devotee of the two greatest songs ever created by human beings.
(Stairway & Megalovania)

Year 2020, and still rocking!!!
I love this version! Heard it YEARS ago but thought it was lost to time!! Thank you for uploading!!
It is probably their best version of Tribute! Excellent performance!
I have been on a Tenacious D thing lately and this by far stands out among the best....Great job guys....THIS IS THE Sheitttttttttttt......
They are excellent performers

Awesome Performance 🔥👹👍
Love the way these guys effortlessly dance all over the line between comedy and actual epic folk/rock songs! Great storytelling, musicality, and stage presence! Gotta love the D!
MASTERFUL
Got chills watching this
Jack had the look. He could have been a major rock star. So glad he chose the path he did though.
lol wut?
The funny thing is: He IS a major rock star - in Tenacious D!
For me, he is already rockstar
Pretty sure he is a major rockstar
Johnny John you’re right I love it when he voices a thick headed stereotyped karate panda, or when he plays a cartographer in a mystic jungle with the personality of a basic white girl.
Tenacious D is a very good band ... love it .
Amazing
Thats amazing! Didnt see that version yet

Einfach nur ein geiler Song.
AMEN!!!
This honestly is one of the greatest songs in the world, for real.
These guys are brilliant.
Fucking legends
Now I get why the song even deserves recognition--well articulated satire, mr. Drunken Fist
Just the impersonation of spunking out a winged demon that devours kyle is god like, or rather utter devilry :)
