Best performing sisters I found online over lockdown.
You’ve been looking in the wrong places my friend 😂😂
@@MF-oe2ze 🤣🤣🤣
Probably a small search bar then. It’s not like there’s many
Heard of Og3ne?
Flo denied that high five at the end with so much energy lol
I think I'm in love.
3:05 - guitar solo had me in stitches 🤣
The next Eric Clapton, she is!
It wouldn't be New year without Flo and Joan's round-up
Saw them not long ago and they were selling merch so got to meet them. So lovely, so down to earth and just fucking brilliant. Probably my favourite musical comedy act to date.
Me too, Shan. They do seem to be just nice, genuine people who happen to have a shit-ton of talent. Make the most of it - at some point, the world of comedy is going to catch on bigtime, and they'll be playing Minchin-sized gigs that are too big to allow them to run their own merch stall (not to mention being able to employ someone to do it for them, while they unwind backstage with tea, lady crisps, and a sausage :)).
I keep coming back to this one. This is a great calling card for F&J in 2022. It shows their evolution from their earlier presentation - sat statically side by side, delivering the songs deadpan down the barrel of a gun (this was the style right through to their "Alive on Stage" show and Amazon special in 2019) - to being more confident and animated performers. It's been less than 7 years since they started in Toronto as complete, nervous amateurs, doing comedy as a sideline to their day jobs, which is how that style developed. But - this contains all the elements of their humour in one short song - dark self-deprecation, almost dadaist silliness (a hamster in a parachute :) ) and satirical comment. And - the fact that they could write and arrange what is a really good song, both musically excellent and lyrically very funny, for a one-off performance with a very limited shelf-life, that wouldn't form part of any of their touring shows - I continue to be astonished at how prolific they are as writers. One of my favourite F&J moments, and I'm glad this was released online. Very much hoping that the 2019/2020 "Before The Screaming Starts" and 2022 "Sweet Release" shows have been/will be recorded or filmed for release at some point. Can't get enough of these two talented women.
A hamster in a parashute would do a better job than bojo the clown.
Great ladies, all truths & funny with it 😁

A hamster in a parachute would do better than most of our politicians.
Got to go and find some more Flo & Joan stuff, that was hilarious
Look for “i drank too much”, it’s awesome!
Brilliant. Thanks Flo & Jo.
You ladies are fantastic, I'm such a fan!
I live in the US (shit autocorrect went to IS) but you and English comedy keeps me sane! Thank you for keeping me my cynical self.
Coming back to this video at the end of January 2022 to remind myself I've failed my new year's resolutions again 😂
End?
Well done!!
Story of my life 😂
June 2024
(Prime Minister) "You know we need a new one...."
For all the times I've played this song since it came out, that line has never aged.
Great to see Bernadette and Amy perform again
brill! love and light
I'd love to hear their take on this year, they are so funny 💀
When she played that guitar I lost it
Someone explain to me how old Flo & Joan are because they look & sound young enough to be millennials & then their humour & image also feels like it comes from between the 70s & 2000s
29 and 31 or something around that so younger half of Millennials
Nicola is 31 & Rosie is 28
@@EloiseEighteen
Great guess Eloise
Nicola was born Dec 1989, Rosie in March 1992. So at the time of this video, 31 and 29 would be right. As of now (March 29th 2022), they've both had another birthday, so 32 and 30 respectively.
If you run for PM Flo and Joan, I will vote for you.
Great to see these two ladies are back...
Spot on song
Thanks girls for giving me a good laugh.
Ah man they're so funny.
That was the best thing I’ve ever seen.
Thankyou for keeping your clothes on lol
they’re back again!!
Awesome , 100% class 👏
We need more of these lassies 💯💪👏
Awesome.
Quality 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Brilliant..absolutely bloody Brilliant!!🤣🤣
More Flo and Joan pls :)
Yay been waiting for this!!!
amazing xx
i wait all year for Flo and Joan's yearly review song
These ladies are so funny
Love you russ
at least one resolution came true…
we’re getting a new prime minister now!
"...anyone can do it,
Clearly, anyone can do it...."
......as Ms T. has proven. Come to that, anyone can do heart surgery, provided you're not too concerned about a successful result. 🙂
Yeah we like the way Flo n Jo flow with the go .. .. ..
Yasser! Are great!
Awesome :)
Cool
Too bad you can only like once
I would vote for Flo, Jo or even the hamster...
"Stop torturing yourself, man -- Live in the now!"
Garth Algar _Wayne's World_
This song basically describes my year 2021.
CARL PHILIP LOUIS song about The Government is quality.
They seem like an off brand Penny and Amy from Big Bang theory (love them tho, hilarious)
✨😂🤣😂✌🏻
Flo & Joan are hilarious!
British Garfunkel & Oates
As much as I like this one, I still prefer the 2020 song...
Holy Corona!
My transcription:
January 1st, 2021.
Gonna turn my life around now this new year has begun.
Gonna eat more spinach.
Gonna clean my house.
And go swimming three times a week.
And here I stand at the end of the year
Looking back, knowing that
I never did it.
You know, I never did it.
February 1st, 2021.
Said this will be the month that I go for a run.
And I did. Once!
And never again
But I did say I would learn the guitar.
And you know I never did it.
Somehow, I never did it.
A fridge of rotten spinach and a shitty guitar
And a swimming cap that I'll never use.
At least I can repurpose that cap into
You can't repurpose a swimming cap.
Ohhhhh, unless a hamster needs a parachute
Ohhhhh.
March 1st, didn't even give it a try.
April 1st, spent the whole month drunk.
May 1st, promised myself I would bake a cake
And I baked a cake, and it tasted shit.
June 1st is a month of the year.
July 1st, tried to sellotape a swimming cap to a hamster's back.
August 1st, said I'd be kinder to myself
Then I remembered I'm the idiot who can't bake a cake.
September 1st, spent the month shouting at the news.
October 1st, spent the month shouting at the news.
November 1st, spent the month shouting at my phone
And the news, and myself, and that stupid shitty cake.
No I didn't even throw it in the bin, cos I'm a lazy pig.
Ohhhhhh (guitar solo).
So I stand looking forward to the new
With all my resolutions for 2022.
And you know I'm gonna do them.
This time I'm gonna do them.
Gonna make a million dollars.
Gonna fly a boat.
Fuck it. I'll even run for Prime Minister.
Cos you know we need a new one.
You know we need a new one.
And anyone can do it.
Clearly anyone can do it.
At this point I'd even take a hamster in a parachute.
Yeah, we're gonna do it.
Which one's which???
Jamal, Flo (Nicola) plays the piano. Joan (Rosie) doesn't play the guitar 😊
my name is flo to
Johnston
Omg what is the a parody of? Like what's the original song
It's an original song, not a parody as such 😊
2:22
Where did that guitar come from? Am I watching family guy?
I am going to run for prime minister but I'm going to take a pin with a parachute sack strapped to a cupboard so I can tell all the picks in cabinet their fired
1:58
Jesus.
BGT Next ladies?
and that is my short name and florence is my actual name is that your actual name to
I am not Dan Johnston my name is florence
My ears are bleeding
they kind of remind me of garfunkel and oates, anyone else see that?
Definitely.
Except they’re funnier.
@@draftsmann lol, bit true but i always prefer the british versions in my experience, garfunkel and oates are probably objectively better though
@@yaboinubtheii4154 my reply was ambiguous wasn’t it? I do find Garfunkel and Oates funny but i grew up in Britain on British humour so I much prefer Flo & Joan. I’ve seen them perform a few times in London. There’s a quintessentially self-deprecating Britishness about them which I really like.
@@draftsmann i guess i just misunderstood you, either way though they are both good, that we can agree on without misunderstanding
Awesome, funny, can’t play guitar.
Happy New Year…? I suppose 🤷🏻♀️
They are awful ... And currently pedaling their rubbish on the Mark Watson show on R4/R4extra.
Used to like Russell Howard..
Howard will never be funny.
He's horrible right? He's so unfunny that tears are running down my cheeks when I watch him every week. And my wife still thinks it's from laughter. Just horrible!
@@allthatchas Yes I had the same reaction when I saw him on my tv. 😭😭😭😭 No laughter involved.
@Andy Forshaw: You now what I do to "comedians" that I think aren't funny? I don't watch their videos and I don't write comments! But that's the difference between you and me: I've got a brain in my skull and I've got a life!
@@sierraromeoromeo2444 You mean you're getting all salty because someone doesn't like who you like. Get over yourself 🤣
