A 80's power ballad dedicated to leaving items on the stairs? You've made our entire Tuesday, Penn and Kim! 🎸❤️😍
Thanks for being here with us!
The slow mo high jump 😂
@@theholdernessfamilyYou need to do a 98 Degrees parody eventually!
@@theholdernessfamily Suggestions include Invisible Man, Because of You, The Hardest Thing, and Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche). Here is a perfect idea: 98 Degrees Narrates Your Day. Please consider this, Penn and Kim! I would totally watch and favorite this video.
Love the song!!😅
This is fantastic! Also - today I learned that my whole family views our entire house as stairs...
TRUTH!
Absolutely I have three teenage sons and an 11 yo daughter and my husband of 21 years and they leave their stuff everywhere and then ask me where it is.
🤣🤣🤣
Whoooo oooh we're half way there, whoooo oooh, leave it everywhere! 😂
Muahmuahmuah😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This may be my favorite yet! Love this!!!! Kim, if you put in a basket at the bottom of the stairs and the new rule is "Every Sunday, anything left in this basket gets thrown out!" it's a game changer! (Fear of Loss is a great motivator) Great video, guys! ❤❤❤
Now THAT is a GREAT idea! 😂
(My mother's rule was, 'If it's not in the way, you can leave it out - but you can't get anything else out until after you're finished with this one! 😅)
We had a similar rule. I didn’t nag anyone about leaving stuff around, but when I cleaned an area, I cleaned it-everything in the bin if it didn’t belong. (To be fair, I have a neurodegenerative disease and just don’t have the energy to clean before I clean)
All I had to do was announce “I’m cleaning the _________ in 10 minutes!” to send everyone scrambling for their stuff. The kids didn’t believe me about this at first. Fortunately, it only took one trip out to the bin to retrieve things to convince them.
Dang I never thought about threatening to toss them. When ours get full I dump them on their beds. Sometimes floor. 😅
My grandfather- I was raised by him- if it wasn't put away before bed it got thrown out. May sound harsh, but he was actually the sweetest grandfather ever!!!
Golly, I thought of the same thing! I’m sure it would work.
Dollar Tree baskets. One for each family member. That’s the only way stuff doesn’t stay on the stairs in our house. 😂
The struggle is real! Poor Kim! Start holding the stair stuff hostage. Ransom will cost each guilty party 1 chore 😁
I did that with my kids. I charged a nickel to get it back. Some things they never paid the ransom for. At the end of the month it went to Goodwill.
I love this! This is going into my favorite Penn Parody Playlist. Not only is the creativity epic but it rings sooooo true!
This is a problem I didn't know we'd have until we lived in a 2 story house. I always pile stuff on stairs so that I'd take it upstairs, but a lot of times, I'm just too tired to pick it up as I walk up.
3 reasons I want to show this to my wife: 1. Her favorite song ever. 2. She loves Baby Yoda (great cameo!). And 3. Maybe….the kids and I have left a few things around the house….half-way there!
This family has way too much fun with their career. And this video reminds me of how I separate the laundry and can't tell the difference between some of my husband's and two teenage sons' clothes so I ask them to take their stuff from the pile..... but they never do! That pile needs a separate laundry basket in my room (soon it will need two), just in case one of them ever realizes something is missing.
are you me? and you live with clones of my family?
I'm dying, this is totally our family. We've started trying to institute a "take 1-2 things from the stairs when you go up" rule which apparently I'm the only one who follows. Although our pile is more on one side, rather than all over the place. :)
Kim's pile started out on one side... gotta give her credit for that.
This one just went straight to the top of my Holderness favorites! You scored a perfect bullseye with this one. These lyrics are going to be stuck in my head for all eternity. 😂
The nipple scratch at 2:19 and the Bon Jovi informational at end😂
Bravo
Penn does it again! You have taken another one of my favorite 80’s songs and turned into a hilarious , yet sad but true , parody. Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!😂🙌🏽
Thanks for the love!
@@theholdernessfamily Thank YOU🤗💕
The best ever! You identified my family and helped me laugh off the laziness. My husband and I live on the main floor so I rarely take the stairs. I place clean laundry in baskets blocking the bottom step and they will jump over just like Penn did.
My life! I played this for my husband and son before school today! Thank you for this!
As someone who put the clean and folded laundry on the stairs, assuming I will put it in my room later (I don't, for weeks at a time) I feel this song in my soul
Why CLEAN laundry on the stairs, where people are walking all the time? Put it all on the couch or something, not blocking traffic where someone can trip on it if they aren't careful.
So true. Often most of the things are mine😮
My grandmother had a one week rule. If it was still there Saturday (cleaning day) it was determined you didn't need/want it anymore so it was thrown away. Trust me - it only happened once 😂.
Great idea.
I like your Grandma
Yep, the good oldays
Brilliant
I died laughing. 🤣 we don’t have stairs but my family sure is creative about where their piles of stuff goes. And one day… well I just give up and take it to their rooms myself! 😜🤣
Bag it all up and hide it in the garage or attic. When they ask where it is, say that you threw it out since they obviously didn't care about it enough to put it where it belongs.
If they get all shocked about it, tell them where it actually is but next time it goes in the trash for real. Hopefully they learn before the behavior gets too bad.
If they don't get shocked, trash it for real; they truly didn't need it if they don't care. And if they repeat the behavior, toss it straight in the trash after one warning of what you're going to do if it doesn't get stored right away.
Lmao so true! The target bag bit killed me! 🤣
One great thing about my house is it’s two levels, and the kids sleep in the basement. So I can at least throw all the junk DOWN the stairs! Great video, as always!
That must be very satisfying!
An ADHD point of clarification - I don’t assume that someone will take it to where it needs to go, I simply forget that it exists. And it’s not that I don’t care about the pile on the stairs, I either completely don’t see it, or I only see it when I absolutely have to be out the door immediately, or I see it and hyperfocus on clearing it all up and therefore miss my next meeting 🤦♀️
You guys always hit those 'life experiences' spot on!!
Hah! Is this happening at your house too?
Epic! This is so true, normally the pile would stay until we had visitors.
Yes! My family becomes blind when walking up the stairs!
Epic!!! You always nail what all the rest of us are going through (or have gone through if we're a little older than you, like I am) Love the haircut, Penn!
As a longtime bon Jovi fan i love the dedication to the song and this whole video was so true, i leave stuff in bags all the time then ask my wife if she had seen it. Hilarious and amazing work. Always one of my favorites videos to watch and I am even willing to overlook that she was talking during the guitar solo, lol, a sambora solo too.
This is literally what happened when I was a kid. Our bedroom was in the attic (without central air) so my mom didn't want to haul it up there. We did the same land-mine avoidance moves up and down the stairs!
I am beside myself with laughter, because it is sooo true! Every family has a “spot” that gets out of control. Thank you both for such a funny and rocking parody!
This cracked me up. The Holderness Family plus breakfast on a dreary Tuesday morning is a great way to start my day.
I hope the rest of your day is good 😃
Livin' on a prayer also continues to work as a lyric for this. A prayer is all she's got that that stuff is moving.
I love how he's rocking out while she batching lol I love it.
Love this video- so so funny and spot on🤣🤣
Many years ago I bought “stair baskets “ and still use them to this day. One of my kids chores was to “take care of the baskets”- they would have to bring them up and put the things in each of our bedrooms:)
This was so true when I was a kid. Epic keytar by the way. Kim's expressions absolutely cracked me up.
You have such a perfect way of taking all that drives me nuts and making me laugh about it. So grateful for you. (And using Bon Jovi just makes it even better.)
Hits the nail directly on the center of the nail head!
🤣🤣 my "mom line", never waste a trip! Grab your stuff and put it away. 🤣
It's hard to choose a fav Penn parody but this one is right up there! Terrific!
Ok I think THIS is the most relatable video y’all have ever done.🤣 Although it’s my kids who don’t pick up the stairs. It drives me and my hubby bonkers that they don’t seem to ‘see’ the things I put there. Lol BUT I have to say I recall being a kid and my mom getting on me about my piles on the stairs and I literally remember NOT SEEING THEM til she pointed them out to me! Lol So I guess the Apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree. 🤣
The dog's look of disinterest and disdain wins the best cameo.
That's another Holderness Family classic! My wife loved it.
This was great guys- the vocals were fantastic as always and Kims facial expressions- gold!.
OMG - this is me and my family!
It only goes away when I declare it's all going in the garbage in 15 minutes.
Somehow the most relatable song yet. When he tossed the Target bag on the table it resonated right to the very depths of soul.
Bon Jovi......🥰
You nailed it!
Of course I had to check this out - stairs = open concept dresser, closet, garage and bath. It's a universal room! Great job. Weird Al would be proud.
This is too good. I’m amazed at how you come with these songs. And so true. The amount of hope we moms have leaving it on the stairs…😂
We sing this in our house, now, because everyone but mom leaves it on the stairs. You guys nailed it!
Genius! The lyrics fit like a glove. 😀
I love Penn’s voice. Parody or not……. He rocks. 🎤 🎶
Penn does his own stunts. Lol . My mom would put my brother and my stuff on the stairs. If it was there when dad came down for breakfast, it went into the trash. 24 hours stair life.
Its the "do they not see," that does it for me😂. I must say this under my breath, yell out loud, just, ugh, the crap on the stairs is never f*#*ing ending at my house!
Weird Al missed a hit with this one. Your best video ever. Perfect parody and soooo reflective of my life.
Thank you!
Just when I think I can’t love you guys more… I feel you, so very much. I don’t think my family has EVER brought something on the stairs up the stairs. And your talent for new lyrics is amazing. Thank you!
OMG yes!!! As a mom I do this and same result! I have to say, this is really well done-perfect! The lyrics are spot on-in rhythm and rhyme-and I love the toothpaste story woven through it! But really just so much freakin fun-you’re amazing!!!
This was hysterical! And so true!!!
I dont know how I have never found you guys before but Im so glad I just have. So funny and totally spot on
I just don't know how you make this comedy gold every time. I parody sing all day goofy songs to my daughters but I'm sure no one else would appreciate it
I don't know - try making a channel too! We can NEVER have too many parodies!
@@cmm5542 trust me, the only ones who would think I sing well are my daughters haha
This is epic and universal. After 35 years and three kids, the situation has not changed. My youngest is moving to a loft apartment with stairs...we'll see what happens. 😆
The same thing will happen except he can't ask you where it is, but you 😅 will know.
Yup. This was my stairs 70s & 80's❤
I feel so seen!!! So glad this just doesn’t happen in my house. Whenever the kids say, “Mom, where’s my….?” I respond, “Did you check the stairs?”
I love yall so much!Great humor, talent, and creativity. Found yall during covid when I really needed a lift. Still watching videos, although life is "normal" again. Thanks for being a bright spot in my day!
My Aunt Vicky has a basket for this, if you go upstairs you MUST take it with you.
Excellent parody as always.
“If you’re going up, take something up!” That’s my motto
Huh, I just watched that 20 times in a row. And I still don't feel completely satisfied. I want more😅
This is our new family anthem you guys are genius :) and you capture family life perfectly!
OMG this was my dad growing up. He’d threaten to throw the stuff away if we didn’t take it upstairs. Love the Bon Jovi.
"Babe have you seen my toothpaste?"
Match. Set. FIGHT. 💥
That was hysterical. And true. Loved the last two lines! 😂
Thank you for making me smile in bed at 5am!! Love this!!
We're so happy you liked it.
This video hits! But I’m sure my husband won’t find it NEARLY as funny as I do. 😫🤣
This is the BEST!
I have even tried the “basket by the stairs for all the stuff” approach. Nope. Basket gets full, and then the overflow still ends up on the stairs, because a basket does not change the *people* who refuse to bring anything at all up the stairs 😂
Love it! I left two huge laundry baskets full of folded clothes on top of each other, blocking the stairs and my kids still climbed over them instead of taking the hint! :D
I literally just finished cleaning up the stairs after a week of stuff being dumped there (a lot by me), and came back to see this video in my recommendations 🤣
I am SO glad I’m not alone in this struggle 😂 Thanks for writing an anthem for one of my biggest mom gripes!
Kim's spoken part....I'm done!! 😂😂😂. I can't hear the original song the same way anymore
EVERYONE has a stair pile! Lol... This is so hilarious and accurate.
My best days start with a video from you two. So good. Thank you!
Have a great rest of your day!
Been hoping you’d put more these parodies out- you’re so good at it. Kim that citrusy, flowery vibes really suits you. Plus you’re clever & skilled etc
Kim's face when Pen asked for his toothpaste was gold! Lol
We have a leave it on the end of the couch problem. When I was a kid my mom had one of those stair baskets but insisted it was only for décor and I don't think all of the clutter would fit in it anyway :/
I believe the solution was best found by this one homemaker who has a box. Anything that gets "left" she puts it in the box. At the end of the week, anything that is not claimed and put away goes bye bye 👋
This was my life as I raised my now 2 adult daughters. All I asked was take one of your items with you as you go upstairs. A remark I often heard was, "I didn't see it." HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE IT????? Thanks for the laughs.
That’s me. My mom puts everything on the stairs, and I completely ignore it unless I absolutely NEED something, and then I’ll just bring that one singular item up. 😂😂
If you're old enough to write this, then you're old enough to do better.
You guys don't disappoint! Love from Australia.
Hope all is well down under!
@@theholdernessfamily Thanks! Yeah, no major bush fires, floods, droughts, or earthquakes this week. Just gangsters shooting each other & stupid politicians. I guess you guys know what that's like.
I’m glad I’m not alone doing this. My teenage daughter just walks right by it until she needs it, then takes her clothes up.
We are totally trying to clean up our stairs so we can set up a new bed that's been waiting a loooong time for us!
Dear Kim, Hahahaha This is so freaking perfect!!! The accuracy is off the charts. Sincerely, Jessie (who lives with her son and her husband). P. S. I would like to throw in the time that I almost face planted coming down the stairs because of said things on the stairs 😂
This was my house growing up! Luckily I live alone now so I'm responsible for my own stuff! I do live in an apt now so the mess is eliminated! Thank you Penn and Kim for the memories! Kim's facial expressions are hilarious! P. S. I'm wheelchair bound with Cerebral palsy so I really can't have stuff around
Good motivation to be tidy but otherwise I can’t think of an upside. I’ve become disabled and need to keep the floors clear too, but I still manage to leave piles of untidy everywhere 😅 Glad you’re maintaining your spirits.
@@mariag.8242 Well thank you so much. It helps when you have someone to help you as I do although I have been on my own since the age of 20. Honestly for me that's the only way to be! I wish you the best!
This is spot on! I’m OCD and give each person their own stair … so you don’t even have to sort through the crap!! Then I yell ‘stair pile bruh’ anytime someone walks up it 😂. It still grows and grows. Why ?!?!
Best parody so far!
Our mom used to put our neatly folded laundry on the stairs for us to carry up. We were kind of ok about taking it up. But if we waited too long and she reached the breaking point, she would go upstairs to our rooms, empty the drawers, and throw everything down the stairs. Then we would have to pick it all up and take and put it away properly. As an adult, that seems like a reasonable lesson!
Whoa! Your mom is epic!
Growing up in a one story home, this didn’t apply to me, we would always throw everything on the living room couch halfway through the house!
I can relate. I try putting stuff at the bottom of the stairway, but I always wind up bringing it upstairs
My family leaves their own stuff on the stairs to take up later, but I end up grabbing it on my way up and distributing it, even though the items don't belong to me. I just imagine someone tripping, and I can't bear to pass by and not do anything. This song is super funny, though. I liked the hyperbolic leaping over the stuff on the stairs!
I put stuff on the stairs but take it up yhe very next time I go up. I know if I expected anyone else to take it up it wouldn't make it
I have a ‘stair basket’ that fits on two steps. Anything that’s needed to be brought upstairs to the bedrooms goes in the basket! Neat and tidy!!
My sister just broke her toe because she cleaned the stuff from the stairs, maybe it saved lives. :) Thanks for this power tribute
My mom left stuff on the stairs too, and she had to remind us very loudly to take it up. Sigh! Those were the days.
Laughed until I cried. OMG so so true!!! Love it!
Hilarious! And oh so true. Glad I'm not the only one with this problem. Rock on, guys!
This is so relevant to the work that I do as a decluttering specialist...clearing up staircases...Love this one! Keep them coming!
This must be one of the ones that Penn came up with very quickly, because it is GOLD!
This is so my family! Our counters get cluttered too with stuff.
Love it!!!!
Pro-tip for mom: put everything in the fireplace and see if they notice … 😂
