Overdrive
Spine: When I enter a room there shines a blinding light
It is so bright, people shield their eyes
Rabbit: I take a step back and pivot around on my feet
So everyone can see what I am wearing
Hatchworth: Beam a smile to the host at the back of the room
Then tip my hat so slowly; man that's really cool
Oh oh oh, oh oh, ohohohohoh
Oh oh oh, oh oh, ohohohohoh
Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh
Spine: I've got my hand and the room is on it
Hatch: On my palm, make 'em all..
Rabbit: ...dance to and fro
Spine: with their eyes
Rabbit: their sight
Hatchworth: drinks me in
Spine: and tries
Rabbit: to com-pre-hend all-of-my
Hatchworth: Charming looks
Spine: Chiseled face
Rabbit: Glooooowing eeeeeeyes
Hatchworth: then they stare at my moves
Spine: gleaming smile (Rabbit: Glooooowing eyes)
Hatchworth: and fancy shoes
Spine: That's when we go into
Overdrive
Overdrive
Oh-oh-oh-oh-overdrive
Overdrive
Overdrive
Over-D-d-d-d-drive
Spine: Our heads are on right, we are just in an overdrive
And our dancing comes so naturally we don't even have to try
Rabbit: We've got these moves (Hatchworth: you think they're not cool?)
Spine: We don't know how to dance
Rabbit: We just carry ourselves in an overdriven stance
Oh, oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh oh,
Ohohohohohohohoh
Rabbit: I drive my car straight through the walls, into the ballroom and people gasp when they realize that the car matches the color of my eyes
Spine: My head is rocking back and forth, synced to the beat
And all the while I’m tapping the dance floor with my feet
Hatchworth: Point to the ceiling just before the music comes on (Spine: dance floor, dance floor oh) and no one will be prepared, for my moves at they will have stared (Spine: dance, dance, dance, dance dance)
Oh oh oh, oh oh, ohohohohoh (Spine: tappin’ the dance floor)
Oh oh oh. oh oh, ohohohohoh (Spine: c’mon)
Oh, Oh, Oh (Spine: tap those feet)
Oh, Oh, Oh
Hatchworth: I've got my hand and the room is on it (oh yeah)
Spine: On my palm, make 'em all..
Rabbit: ...dance to and fro (ohhohohoh)
Hatch: with their eyes
Spine: their sight
Rabbit: drinks me in (oh yeah)
Hatch: and tries
Spine: to com-pre-hend all-of-my (okay)
Hatchworth: Charming looks
Spine: Chiseled face
Rabbit: Glooooowing eeeeeeyes
Hatchworth: then they stare at my moves
Spine: gleaming smile (Rabbit: Glooooowing eyes)
Hatchworth: and fancy shoes
Spine: That's when we go into
Overdrive
Overdrive
Oh-oh-oh-oh-overdrive (oh yeah)
Overdrive
Overdrive
Overdrive
Overdrive is taking me over and driving me
Overdrive don't stop, we all like this feeling (Spine: overdrive)
Our heads are on right, we are just in an overdrive (Spine: you know it’s true)
Our dancing comes so naturally we don't even have to try (Spine: overdrive)
Hatchworth: We've got these moves (Rabbit: you think they're not cool?) (Spine: oh yeah)
Spine: We don't know how to dance
Hatchworth: We just carry ourselves in this overdriven stance (Spine: yeah)
Oh, oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh oh,
Ohohohohohohohoh
Whoa!
Spine: Grab your ears and disappear 'cause SPG is here with rhymes and beats so hot they sear through all your fears. Everybody start to cheer and break down what you hear 'cause I'm gonna drop a sphere of sound that'll make your eyes tear. All you people 'round in here better get in gear 'cause when I started my career it was to last hundred years. The party won't stop, now that's pretty clear 'cause all of the exits I have commandeered.
Rabbit: A fat cat sat on my hat
Hatchworth: and spat a rat up on my bathmat
Spine: He once knew a gnat, his name was Pat
Rabbit: He liked to chat, but his pitch was flat
Hatchworth: My friend went splat, where she at?
Spine: was she flying with her homies like a leaf-nosed bat into a big vat
Hatchworth: of strawberry fruit snacks
losing all her health stats because of that?
Oh!
Overdrive is taking me over and driving me
Overdrive don't stop, we all like this feeling (Spine: everybody put your hands up)
Overdrive
Overdrive
Oh-oh-oh-oh-overdrive (Spine: don’t stop)
Overdrive (Spine: don’t stop)
Overdrive (Spine: don’t stop)
Over-d-d-d-d-drive (Spine: yeh)
The Sp1ne's vocal range is fucking incredible. Astounding. From baritone straight to alto, no stutter, no stumble. It's anomalous.
*autonomus!
they're literally singing about the rush they get from performing and how hard they work to do this all for us.. too much love.. all the while they're bringing more of their old-fashioned comedy x)
It doesn't happen too often, but those moments when The Spine gets to be a little bit goofy are just beautiful.
This video is incredibly worrisome because it reveals that somebody gave Rabbit a driver's license. I don't know if I should be more concerned that Rabbit is out there driving cars or that someone is handing licenses to insane robots.
Pfft. Who needs a license? Rabbit's car isn't going to last long anyhow going through walls & drowning in the sea without transmission. Feel bad for that Cadillac.
Calm down boi... its just a prank bro....
She's got an overdriver's license.
ROTFL!
Yotam Paz i see what you did there
everyone get yourself a mini-spine today! you can put him on your back, or your arm, we promise hes the best backup singer you'll ever hear, and best of all he comes wearing these extremely fashionable sunglasses!
Now I'm picturing a very small Spine tugging at someone's sleeve. Adorable
*SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!*
Take my money
Mini-spine should be called vertebra
I think the most incredible thing about this video is that you can screenshot almost any frame of it and get pure gold.
Leetdeth omg you're right
I screenshot 5:33, and it is computationally perfect.
Time to watch each frame one by one
3:20 with tiny spine too
I tested this you are correct 😂
"My friend went splat, where she at?
Spine: was she flying with her homies like a leaf-nosed bat into a big vat
Hatchworth: of strawberry fruit snacks?"
I think that's what we call *iconic*
This Is the silliest band.
I love it.
I want a voice range as colossal as The Spine's range.
I'd be happy with a quarter of The Spine's talent. The automaton is a legend for sure
Sameeee
I hate to say it this way, but from a vocal perspective, Spine's rediculous range almost renders Rabbit irrelevan in the band. Spine can sing 90% of her parts himself. Though of course the band wouldn't be the same without Rabbit's personality.
@@zombine555 ironically they both have near identical range they just have more comfort and different sides.
Azrael713 it’s cause their brother and sister so they have similar voices, and rabbit has a falsetto
How many innocent walls must suffer for our entertainment?
Tim the Wizard Walter Manor is already missing all the doors, might as well go for the walls now too
Tim the Wizard I blame the Kool-aid man for popularizing the trend.
Chimera Manticore, Just as long as they leave the corners in to hold the roof up :P
First a hat, now walls. Where will it end?
Just the fourth one.
SPG are something special. The tones of their voices and the volume which they sing at seems to be a perfect merge with the music, rather than an overlap where one or the other is quiet.
i wish they're more popular they're soooooo underrated
Seriously under rated
Sunglasses McCoolguy confirmed for third Bennett sibling
That's too funny
Confirmed.
Walter must have run out of titanium alloy spines between McCoolguy and Rabbit
🤣
Hatchworth is not one of those siblings its just the two
Spine rapping with the red raybans will always be the best thing ever
I'd like to imagine that this is probably a regular occurrence at the Walter Manor. The robots go into overdrive and just like start smashing out walls and stuff while dancing. Now certain music is forbidden in the Manor....like dubstep. Noooo dubstep.
Funny. Dance is mass destruction. Death metal leaves holes in the floor and no ceiling, lol.
It’s kind of like how different types of music make you feel different ways, only it makes them dance in different ways with different amounts of energy. Just imagine some pore soul at the Walter Manor decided to play Norwegian Black Metal in the workplace without realizing this, only to hear terrified screams from the other room as the robots tear down every wall and piece of furniture in their vicinity in a fit of musically-induced rage
this is my favorite comment ever TuT
The Spine in party glasses is my spirit animal.
Hatchworth in his fancy shoes is my spirit animal
So is mine
To all the negative comments whining like "uuuu it's not like their old music" I've got a message for you:
GO LISTEN TO THEIR OLDER MUSIC AND QUIT TALKIN' SHIT.
Spiral Chain plus it's one of their first songs anyways. They did it live with what's her name.
Sublime Sting while I do prefer their old music and wish they made more of it, I am not opposed to their new stuff.
YOU GET A HIGH FIVE DAMMIT!
Or how about this. You move on with your day and let people feel what they want to feel, you can feel that those people need to be quiet, but you don't need to say it. I'm waiting to see what they're going to do with Zero, personally I'm hoping for a move away from dance tracks and a move back to songs inspired by American music from the late 1800s to the mid 1900s. Bands can explore different genres, look at the Beatles, but even then it was all still rock music.
At 4:03 Rabbit's bow bouncing on her back is just really cute 😍
I drive my car straight through the walls, into the ballroom and people
gasp when they realize that the car matches the color of my eyes...
the best part
james fairfull
I literally just reached that part of the video as I got to your comment.
lol
So what color is her eyes?
@@simoneangeliquemaloney3990 green AND blue
@@simoneangeliquemaloney3990 Hazel 😊
They-
They can rap
Did David just rAP???
Also, where are they all running?
This video is a god damn mess. I love it so much.
Some say he is even better than Eminem.
I'm sorry i love this band but no he is not even close to being better than Eminem.
Sydney Bettencourt He's done it before at least twice
They're running to the next nightclub, etc, to hit, lol. Literally and figuratively.
They are being chased by the FBI, being that talented is clearly illegal
Mini Spine sliding around on Normal Spine. Mind Blown! I LOVE THIS SONG!
yeah me and my gf cracked up when he started sliding down his own arm xD
I think Mini Party Spine could almost be a new character :P definitely doesn't act quite the same as the usual Spine
DarthRayj
Haha I like it!
did you notice the spine one-hand saving?
+Isabel Rojas dabing
I adore Rabbit's makeup! She pulls off steampunk so well
My God.... The Spine's voice..... goes right up my....Spine! And his RANGE. Holy SH!T!
That's auto-tune.
@@iwanttocomplain it’s not.
I'm really glad that Spine McCool Boy got so much camera time, he's truly the best
The Spine's shades are simply epic... And so cool!
I see what you did, there. :D
+a9fan4life ;^)
EEEEEEEEPIIIIIIIC AND SOOOOOOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOOL
spg reference😂😂
Guys I just found а good wеbsite which gives yоu frеe_steеeаm_wallet_сcссаrd_с0deееs twitter.com/8abc04573cf0e0be5/status/719079525670395904 Steаm Рoweеreeed Girаffeeее Оverdrivе
This video felt like it was from a cable access show in the early 90s, and I mean that in the best way.
Phalxxx I know right
Yo rabbit, you might be new to this human thing, but if you drive your car into a building they aren't looking at you because your eyes match the car color.
This music video looks like it's straight out of an 80s fever dream. It's damn beautiful.
Alright, who gave the robots rocket fuel?
But they run on steam. Must be acid vapor
Maybe carbonated water?
Doesnt spine run on diesel
And rabbit on hot milk or,,,,
I wish I had a tiny spine to sing backup lyrics for me
Airship007Johnston Don't we all.
Airship007Johnston I just wish I had a tiny Spine. I'd have so much fun with tiny Spine.
You'd know where he'd be hiding from the cat or dog or whatever pet you wish you had. Under your fedora
Airship007Johnston dude like, same! I think my life would be complete lol
If anyone read that without any context to it, it would sound like the most random and confusing thing ever. Lmao
Bunny, use the breaks! Driving through walls will scuff the paint on your car.
Sandra C and potentially kill people.
Angry Squirrel Productions That too. Don't want to loose any potential SPG fans.
Scuffed, like the color of their eyes.
Not sure how to feel about Creeping Hatless Parasitic Twin Spine.
Hearing the crew rap about random things was freaking amazing
InternationalSpaceDemon best rap EVER
I just realized, Album *1*, *2* cent show, mk. *III*, Vice *Quad* rant, *Quint* essential. It all makes sense now
1, 2, III, Quad, Quint,
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
That Really Shitty Hiss-Poster The rest of us figured that out years ago.
And 1896
Fascinating that a dance song can be made without mention of drugs, sex, or alcohol.
Steampowered Skeptic ikr
Clear Bandit - Rather Be, Karmin - Hello, Walking on a Dream - Empire of the Sun, most Shawn Wasabi songs, Grande Finale and Jenny by Studio Killers. Just to name a few!! 😊
Titenic : The JonSong
@@jackawaka omfg yes
Fruit snacks are pretty addictive though.
IS it just me who wants a gif of Hatchworth tipping his hat??
CaptainArtist me me me! I want one!
nice.... now i have visions of hatchworth in me!me!me!.....
I as well
Dude i need that in my life.
Here you are: imgur.com/0xqdvqK
easily still my favorite band in the world, thanks guys...and gal. 62 year young oldster here
It's been four years. The food ran out and I have to use the bathroom. Please release the exits so we can leave.
I love this video :3 The only critique I have is that when listening to the line "glowing eyes" I always imagined all three robots together in frame with their eyes glowing like in Automatonic Electronic Harmonic, it would've been a fun throwback to that video I think :3
TheFaeQueen yeah, I feel that. I was kinda expecting it but its cool either way
Aren't the shades a throwback to that already? Mini Spine is epic & sooo cooool.
seeing Hatchworth run makes me laugh every time, also I miss hatchworth ...:)
He looks like the beginning of a train with the light on his chest
2:26 yea they are gasping cause the car matches your eyes.... totally not cause you just drove a car through a wall into a room. YEP definitely because the car matches your eyes XD
Rabbits very crazy... she probably didn't know why everyone was gasping
Anyone else notice the fancy shoes reference, and that they put the noise in! They put the noise that they put in every album in in this! I'm so glad that they're keeping some of the same things in the band as they evolve
What was in that water I was drinking?
*Communist water*
I'm amazed they didn't break down once during this song
BlueBiscuits Studios probably did right after
BlueBiscuits Studios I did not expect to see YOU here.
they were in.... Overdrive... that's why.
BlueBiscuits Studios They should go into Overdrive more often.
you like spg? woooah
How have I never heard of this group until last night?! The Charismatic Voice did a reaction to one of their songs and now I'm addicted!
Super cool.
Also, apparently someone I know used to play WoW with The Spine.
Rabbit looks so beautiful in this video
love how Hatchworth says "at my moves" 😊😂
Also, tiny spine has nice shades but it's kinda creepy how he hides behind the others and slides down their arms 😣
Awesome song & visuals! It's definitely a fav of mine
Just found these guys. Somebody at work said I should check em out . . . cuz I mentioned by son is trans. Rabbit's journey is incredible, and so is this band. No regrets.
What does this band have to do with being trans? (Imeaniamandahugefanbutlikewhat???seriously,ohwellitsgoodotherfansrlikeme:) ))
The 80s child in me is screaming with joy at how AWESOME this song and music video is!
Also, how unfair is it that I can only like 1 time? I want to like 100 times!
Loving Rabbit's smooth voice
It's nice to finally be able to see the final product after watching David sweat over it on Instagram for the past month ^^
The nerd at the back of the dance hall, idly tapping his foot to the music and looking out over the crowd as though waiting for his cue... This song is his anthem. It's what playing in his head before he even hears it.
4:44 The Spine can rap too dafuq can't this man do I swear if he ends up beatboxing in a song I think my mind will explode
Oh shit Spine is rapping.
Ah, so this explains the Salgexicon video.
Effort for this video: A LOT!!!!
Effort for Salgexicon: I'm tired and just want to dance it out.
I love seeing the evolution of Rabbit. She is my favorite. Spine’s range is my second favorite band member.
my millionth time watching this and I still can't get over Spine McCoolguy with his awesome glasses
Am I the only one who, on hearing Rabbit say her car matches her eyes, thought, "The car's blue and green both?"
Mark Carpenter I was wondering as well how that looked
Mark Carpenter could be a mix you never know like a gradiant
I actually pictured something like Two-Face would drive, green on one side and blue on the other
That is why they are gasping.
it's the mystery machine!
You people are pure and should be cherished as a national treasure.
the spine is sexy and now have swag
rabbit is BEAUTIFUL and now is awesome and beatiful
hatch is cute and now is CUTE and incredible
This video is ridiculous and I fucking love it. Amazing job David
I’m in love with tiny party Spine.
do you ever wonder if SPG would make it big as a kid's tv show? like, they kinda give off those vibes in a way...
-SORTA LIKE DOODLEBOPZ LOL-
I've thought that too. My 1 year old comes running when he hears them.
Emerald Tide I've been finding homestucks every where since homestuck ended
trevor g || well, *_it hasn't ended yet._*
...with all the post-canon content and the Epilogue, that is.
i hope next year is the year of my fav band spg maybe one day they will have 1 mil subs
probably not but i can hope
My 2.5 year old loves these guys! He is always talking about the icecream monster and needing to lick it
Rabbits voice is so unique I love it
Everytime I find one of these hidden gem bands, I am reminded that recognition is NOT talent. You guys have more talent than Most popular singers and bands.
Rabbits movements dont even look robotic anymore... the spine has always been the real star of the group
Hatchworth doesn’t really look like he’s running. He isn’t moving around like the others...
In reality he’s on a rope tied to the Spine’s waist being pulled along as he wears roller blades. Walter never gave him the flexibility to run that the other two have.
at 326 when Beepbop floats down Spine's arm i just...lose it 😂💜
Rabbit is so adorable in this!
3:18
(this was what popped into my brain, I'm sorry... but not really.)
"You should get that looked at bud."
"By a doctor or a mechanic?"
These visuals are SO smooth.
I really love how the Spine looks in this. He just looks so dapper and the designs on his face are just awesome. Also, Rabbit's dress is badass and I love it, and kind of want one like it.
Rabbit looks so pretty in this?????
mikumiku1345 Im absolutely Jealous on how gorgeous she is ♡
Chelsea Benish same I wish I could look like that ;;-;;
She must be made of sunshine and magic. I dont think that anyone could match the bunny magic
Yeah. I think I missed a few videos now but I'm really liking the porcelain looking quality of the center face, really makes it pop out of the background here and looks very soft and suitably flexible compared to the rest of the face makeup that looks like harder metals. Meanwhile the side bits that are darker metals don't seem to move or at least not much further drawing attention to to movement of the center face and jaw.
Generally looks really nice.
The only downside is that the makeup is so white that her nose is literally missing in most shots.
hatchworth"s makeup is on fleek!
-In Walter Manor-
Micheal: Hmm. Time for a new genre. Maybe some dubstep?
Peter: MICHEAL NOOO!
*RABBIT DRIVES CAR THROUGH WALL*
Rabbit, The Spine, Hatchworth: OVERDRIVE
Peter: WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?!?!
The spine is the serious one of this band and seeing him rap made me laugh almost to death 😂😂
My god, this song is so good it had me hooked within the first 20 seconds of it starting. Love the upbeat techno beat to it and the harmonization of the lyrics is really spot on as always. I think I've found a new favourite.
Even on the worst day, these guys will make me smile
This is THE most SPG music video tbh
Two possibilities exist:
Either they're nor gasping at her car's color
Or Rabbit does this enough that it's no longer surprising
I don't know which is more terifying
The hell was up with the mini spine? 😂 3:18
Parasitic automatwin?
I just noticed. AUTOMAtwin
Maybe he's sneaking round others parts, out of his body. He can take his head and spine out.
Its honestly scary
This band has such lovely chaotic energy
Cross-eyed Rabbit is adorable
this was so worth the wait! it was honestly lit and you guys did so many cute dances, sunglasses spine is my favorite oh god!
the rap was worth everything
This song makes me feel so cool! I want to cover it at my local music parlour and create handmade outfits covered in rainbow LED lights with some of my friends
I missed Overdrive and I am extremely happy you guys remade it. It's even better than I expected.
I'm not sure what mechanical fever dream I just watched. But I think I like it.
I literally found you guys today, I love how unafraid you are to be yourselves. Bunch of badasses with some pretty sweet music and unique videos. I inspire to be like you guys.
Did anyone else fucking die of laughter at the beggining the spine and bunny running 😂😂😂
i genuinely do not remember commenting this
My 1 month old son loves Robots, this is probably his favorite song. And Hatchey-boo is his favorite robot (mine too!!) We love these silly robots! Much love to you guys 😄💜
It's pretty neato that ya'll do every part of your own music. Sing, dance, music video production, effects, costumes, post production, the entire thing. Massive skill sets here.
Beebop is one of about fourteen elements that I love about this. This must have required an incredible amount of work. Chunks of this have been floating around in my head over the Thanksgiving (2018) holiday and throughout my day at a small county museum. And for that I'm grateful.
I can't believe I'm just now discovering this band???? You guys are amazing?????????
Sangwoo died in Infinity War.
Just saying
All I can think about while I'm watching this is just how much fun they must have had with this song. It's just a green screen but they're dancing around having the time of their life.
My heart skipped a couple of beats when this popped up on my homepage.
i love how rabbit and the spine run the same way i know cause bunny and david are siblings but its just so cute XD
never clicked on a notification so fast 😂😂😂😂
kittykatmeow2224 SAME
kittykatmeow2224 same
That's actually true for me. I think I never clicked on a notification faster than this video.
kittykatmeow2224 😹😹😹😹
The Spine is one of the coolest bots out there, Bunny is Beautiful and Hatchworth is still the most confusing yet funny bot there
Hey SPG! I'm a new fan here, though I fell in love with Honeybee a while back. I've just started looking into a lot more of your music in the past couple musics and suffice to say, you're now my favorite band along with Modest Mouse. It's also been helping me out a lot through some emotional distress and I really appreciate that. Thank you for everything!
Hatless The Spine has some cursed image energy, his hat just suits him so well!
