Yesss
Yes ! 😆
Ik right
Lol true
Hah. Pathetic. I'm watching...in April!!
Did anybody just remember this song and be like I have to listen to it
This thing just happened to me dude
Tony Mo yea 😂
I did that like just now
Oh my god yeah, I used to know every word
Same bruh

8 years later, if you’re watching this, you’re a legend.

2020: Lockdown
Lockdown! You don't want disease boy, keep away from me girl.. Lockdown!
You should make your own parody 😆

SO TRUE THO

This is my hometown, Spokane, born and raised...I am so proud that Macklemore and Lewis represent this amazing town!
Live here. SO boring ngl.
no one cares what you say
@@contrlfreak6190
@@contrlfreak6190I live here too. Everywhere is boring, at times. Ironically, downtown Spokane isn't a place that I'd describe as boring. But I guess it depends on what you like to do, and all that!
W town
something about eric nally's voice just hits right every time
Fr though he was gonna be this gorgeous girl then i saw the vid lmao dudes got unreal pipes
Only Macklemore can make a song about mopeds that is lit AF.
Yeah, I think of mopeds and think of tourists on rentals. And now this song.😂
Nah
I think of Michael Jackson
Yeah fr why is this song so fire
Ok i take that as a challenge
Damn, why is this song so damn catchy.
Ikr!
+MrDalekJD its cuz one of the singers is possessed by the ghost of michael jackson ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
+Leon Carroll
ARE YOU IMPLYING THE GREAT MACKLE JACKSON?
it's my morning wake up tune
know how u feel
8 years later and this song still goes hard af
hell ya
Its April 2024, let's see how many legends are listening to this incredible song
Ik!
I’m pretty sure people could make a musical of this song alone
Thatd be sweet....
i need this
That’s an actual musical I’d pay my money to see.
deadass I think it is LMAO
I think it's based off of West Side Story
Every song in history: *love, death, heartbreak, drugs, sex, hometowns, etc...*
Macklemore: MOPEDS
Ikr weird af😐
Ikr weird af😐
@@overhaulkai2799 But I love it like that
And then next song .... Shoes
And Im fucking lovin it
When Eric nally does that first “ohh” letting you know he about to unleash them vocals on us. Chills. Every time!
I used to be absolutely OBSESSED with this song when I was younger
lol some fo me
People who's listening to it, we need to be friends.
♥️
BIxck Rxses ight
Bet
Alright, lol.
You got it man
My favorite line in this whole thing is "Going 38 Dan chill the f**k out, mow your damn lawn and sit the hell down!", it's just such a moment!!
Lol and he's just riding on the back of the bike looking content as hell
Maclemore just leaning his face against her back is hilarious!
Plus she a sassy bbw 🤩
SAME!
Rhiannon Contento yessss that line hits different
So good. I come back to this song regularly. Silly, catchy, fun. Also I need a moped with chromed out mirrors.
Hands down one of the greatest music videos of all time. The song, the production, the choreography, the beat, the performances.....just perfection!
and the cast of Rap legends!
💯💯💯
Bruno Mars and Macklemore need to collab for 'Midtown'.
lmao 😂
This might be a joke, but it's a good idea 😂
You mean mark Ronson...
He wrote the thing
omg yes
You joking yeah, but how good would be a Bruno&Mack song?
Believe it or not, Macklemore is one of the few rappers you basically can’t clown
Xandaddy lmao what
Xandaddy and hasn’t made a clown of themselves
Xandaddy you can clown anybody if you try hard enough
It’s actually surprisingly easy to do, have you seen the Comedy Central sketch about the make a wish kid who hates Macklemore
Clone*
2023 finally I’m getting how incredible Macklemore is Respect ✊
2024 anyone??
Yep
@@marielenarodriguez5519😂

Me too! 😂
Anyone else feel like they watched an entire 80's movie in less than 6 minutes
Lost Soul yes
Lost Soul yes, yes I do
Lost Soul yes....
Lost Soul no joke!
Lost Soul i do
So no one is going to talk about the fact he credited EVERY SINGLE PERSON on the cast
I love seeing it
Thats awesome
Well Mackelmore or the guy whom created this song is a nice dude. (I think)
As well as the dog
correction a staff member did
7 years later and Eric Nally slamming his knees on the concrete so aggressively still makes me laugh 😂
I always thought how funny it was XD
I always wondered if he hurt himself doing it, lol. And always hoped that Foxy Shazam would have made it farther.
I just came back to watch this video because I randomly remembered that dude's knees.
I have been scanning the comments for someone to mention his knees 😂😂 thank you
I remeber doing that as a kid, no regretssss
Who else is watching this is January 2024?
3/3/24
Who else thinks Mackelmore is one of the most humblest rappers of all time? I'm sure he's one cool ass friend😂
You are one cool-ass friend too, Shermera. Stay safe!
Probably
I work in Seattle, he's come through the airport a few times always wearing sunglasses like he's in disguise lol
He does come across that way and he's Irish what's not to like lol 😂🍀
2:20 and dont forget the angry vegan. ‘you don’t want no beef boy’
Thrift shop and Uptown Funk had a baby.
you're winning the internet

You must be new
+bernard james don't hate man😂
Idk why this is the one song I learned to rap back in the day but yk, it still hits and I still know every word
2023 and still grooving to this amazingly catchy song
Jesus, Nally puts more passion into singing one "downtown" than I've put into my entire life.
Haha same
he should have been queens pick
@@chellefell1331 Nope
He sounds like a young M.J. at times love it. I love the passion even though this is a fun song!!
Then the knee drop!
I don't even.... this shit is wonderful.
+Jesse Cox So are you, Jesse.

+Jesse Cox exactly what I say when I watch your vids XD
+Jesse Cox Wouldn't have watched this if you hadn't tweeted it. Fuck, that was fantastic lol.

@@d.g91 yeah fr him and yachty were the shit
I feel like this song was really slept on, it’s iconic and actually an anthem
give it 10 years and someone will play it as the intro to some really big movie and we'll all be listening to it again...
that's my bet anyway
It's so good!
Is 200 million not a lot of views?
@@friendofphi its a fraction of what it could've been given the production value and name recognition of the song
Kirill Matusevich exactlyyy
The 70s culture in this makes me feel sane because my favorite decade is the 70s
This song is just pure joy. Anytime. Every time. Love it!
This must have been fun to shoot lol
mooshie mooshie Kris!
+Kristopher London Kris man your song choice is the exact same as mine love your vids man
Late, but according to people I know, it really wasn’t, at least for the scenes of em diving around in large groups. Had to do it tons of times real slow until they got it just right lmao
Aggrofire1233 yea, it stops being fun after the 10th take lol
Haha hilarious seeing you here 5 years later 😂
"Going 38 Dan, chill the F out, mow your damn lawn, and sit the hell down" man this whole song just makes me smile. It's so silly yet beautiful
Made me LOL....in a hospital!
@@sharonpothecary6200 was recently there myself lol...
Hope your health improves and you can leave soon!
I thought he said I'm going 38 nan 😂
@@burntpieceoftoast4148 thank you, all good! Was in there as support crew. LOLs not so appropriate at the time!
That’s my favorite too. And, his expression as he rides behind her makes me laugh so hard. Perfection!
Who's here in 2023? Singing this masterpiece
Uptown Funk and Thrift Shop had a baby.. and you just watched it.
+Gemma Lewis Yeah
Couldnt have said it better myself.
+96jnb just laid out the comment for anyone with a music mind
+96jnb Exactly my thought!
+96jnb just i love it
So did he like... rent a city or what?
It's Spokane, wouldn't cost that much.
Foster Nostrand not wrong, also ironically he went to a known sleazy car dealership, to bad he didn’t talk to Mitch would paid 1200 for the moped
@@ace448 mitch can STOP with his radio commercials
@@fosternostrand1597 There is surprisingly no homeless people or piles of trash in the video, can't be spokane.
Made me laugh out loud! xD
One of my boy’s favorite songs here in 2024
This song is so chaoticlly beautiful. It has so many elements that makes it so curious and magnetic to listeners
The dude that did the chorus TOTALLY killed it! I remembered back when I first heard this track and was like "Aright Macklemore is back." The song is great but the hook... The hook is on another planet. Lyrically and performance-wise. Stunning.
The guy looking like Ben hur on acid owns the chorus & the dancing
The way he can sound like both Lady Gaga and Michael Jackson (occasionally at the same time) is remarkable on its own, but it would all be for nothing if the chorus itself wasn't dynamite!
.3mn
Eric Nally of Foxy Shazam -- love him, he's awesome
Bro same it's honestly a banger
only Macklemore and Ryan Lewis could make a song so stupid sound so good. I want more.
So fucking true
well i definitely did NOT want a moped before. I definitely DO WANT a moped NOW.
NOW.
LIKE NOW, lets go!
This song has layers dude. Go deeper.
Foxy Shazam the band of the guy at 2:00
@@jamsterical8467 it's not it's about moped
Everybody slurp jack harlow like we ain’t seen it happen already
I thank this song for introducing me to Eric Nally & Foxy Shazam. ❤
His knees gotta be killing him to this day
Slammin them bitches
@@chrispennington6890 I was confused what this meant but thanks haha
@@jeranimo.gaming Slamming is knees
@@chrispennington6890 he talking about 3:52
Worth every crack. This clip is legendary
I'm getting alot of Freddie Mercury vibes off that one guy
I thought I was the only one💀💀
God yes i m not the only one
DUDE! When this first came out that was the exact thought I had!
eric nally is ur guy
freddie mercury with michael jackson
7 years since it’s release we’re getting old 😢
Man, is 2023 and I am still here!
still ringing in my ears too haha
Knees of steel, that dude.
All ways on em...His knees
I enjoy my knees. They help me kneel,bow, get down to fix my sink etc.
If you havent already seen it check out dangerous man by foxy shazam. Shows the kneels of steel off there too and the other sick moves
Right, legit just thinking that and he does it so many times too
thats KYB shock absorber on his knees
"Goin' 38 Dan, CHILL THE FUCK OUT! Mow your damn lawn and SIT THE HELL DOWN!"
Macklemore is back.
Fuck yeah.
best part in song
FUCK YEAH!
I love it!!
+Roxas The Key of Destiny™ Well, to be fair, it's only January, so it's only been out a few months.
+Fat6amer I think that's the best line in the song.
Does anyone still listen to this song, like, every day?
Who came here to see if someone has already commented "Who's here in 2024?" 👇

“No one can make a good song about mopeds”
Macklemore: hold my helmet
I’m surprised there isn’t anyone going around saying everyone’s comment is in unoriginal
Apache: hold my Roller
If I only had one helmet....
@@eakin21 cause this song just doesn't make u feel negative
two by two never beard anyone say that but ok
When Macklemore said "Pirate my shit" I knew he was a legend.
Need an update on how that’s guys knees are 8 years later 😮
*Anyone else just randomly think of this song*
You didn’t you found it off tik tok I sang this at my school talent show
HartyBoyFrench um okay luv
Rn lol 😂

@@haydentheasian1127 how do you know what they did?
3:26 " I'm going 38 Dan, chill the f*** out! Mow yo damn lawn and sit the hell down!!" Best line delivery
Y E S
Such a wacky song but the chorus brings it together so well. 2:30 “what you see is what you GET GIRL” was always in my head
Damn is there anyone else watching this in 2024 or just me?
Whoever is watching this now has a great taste in music.
Always 🙏🏼
Sam Thompson thank you
Does that mean I'm old or am I still 14
Thank you
Cayden Smith yes
Mackelmore back at it teaching us to save money
Juztin Fleming except Foxy Shazam jus straight up wasted a hot dog...
Man knows what we need. Living is too expensive (Seattle prices are scary! Just stayed there for two weeks while my baby was in the hospital and you cannot find food under $15 unless it’s McDonald’s).
Look I just legit bought a moped $790 in cash no insurance need 70-100 MPG hell yeah
Esa canción lo estuve buscando por año hasta que aprendí inglés lo encontré ❤❤
who is here at January 2024?
Wow. Filmed in my hometown of Spokane, Washington. As I sit watching in my adopted home of Hanoi, Vietnam, I feel oddly proud of the little town I came from.
+Dan Hauer bro how is hanoi since its communist tell me
+Dan Hauer I am guessing you moved to a country that doesn't extradite?
Going 38 Dan, chill the fuck out.
+Dan Hauer Yup.. I live in Spokane. pretty crazy to see all the places i walk on a daily basis in this video. Actually makes me proud as well..

Who's listening to this masterpiece in 2024?
😍
Why this isn't No.1 for every summer, I'll never know x
Really glad Macklemore is back talking about the important issues again.
A little fun should always be in a Macklemore album :D trust me there will be deep songs in his new album...
what is the issues he is talking about?
+Karen Smith sarcasm
+Karen Smith mopeds
+Greg Poblete the moped debate is hot these days
How can a song be stuck in my head for 5 years straight
I understand!
Cause shit slaps
Dam at least it's a great song
More, more, more of Macklemore!
who else is listening to this in 2024
A rapper who raps about Mopeds, Thrift Shops, Saving money, mental health and drug problems and how cheap his wardrobe is, is pretty cool to me. Hip Hop doesn't embrace this guy enough. He's in his own lane. I respect that.
Edit: Wow 3k likes? Thanks y'all... Big ups to Mack.
You are right. He even wrote songs about how he's not black but.... You know questioning whether he is culturally appropriating.... He's just a very deep thoughtful person
agreed
Hip hop loves Mac…. No one disrespects this dude.
That's why I love him and his music. Macklemore is underated.
@@michelemichele7178 How's is it cultural appropriation? It not traditional black music it's a wester genre founded by a black guy. That's like saying Koreans are culturally appropriating pop etc.
I just love Macklemore’s straight face while laying his head on the girl’s back
😂
Yeah that's funny ae
same lol
Love him cuddled up to home girl 🤣🤣
That might be the best part of this dope video.
Who still listening 2024?😊
This song is fine wine - It gets better with age
The level of happiness this provides me is immeasurable.

When you realize this song is just a love letter to mopeds.
Made me think of my friend that rode a moped. I had to pick him and it up in my truck when it broke down, ayy good times riding around with him tho.
Exactly 😂😂
Mopeds are sexy, straight up 👆
Makes me miss my baby blue vespa
Too bad there's no mopeds in the music video tho. They don't have petals so they're scooters :/
