@@DrunkNamedJohn Okay. I'm apparently being too subtle here. Let me try it this way. Don't be the jerk who steps on someone else's joke just for the sake of stepping on it.
@@Melnokina.-. 1. B12 deficiency is fairly common, so I'm not looking for attention by mentioning it. 2. It is supposed to be a humoristic comment. 3. No one has to ask for me to share my knowledge or my experiences.
I can’t help but come to watch this again every time after I see the episode. “I’m B6, I pick up sticks” always gets me. Like wtf does that even mean? It’s just to rhyme. Fucking hilarious lmao
It's a play on an old nursery rhyme, I can't remember what it's called again but it goes, "One two, buckle my shoe, three four, shut the door, five six *pick* *up* *sticks* , seven eight, lay them straight, nine ten, do it again." I think it's from Barney or something lol😅
If you notice Steve's lines throughout the song they're a lot more innocent than the more innuendo laced sections, like "b12 makes you feel all bright and alert" followed by "now lay down on my bed and take off your shirt". I'm pretty sure Steve is just too naïve to realize whats going on in the rest of the song
American Dad has some amazing musical numbers and episodes. Top tier animated show, the original premise and Family Guy keep people from giving it a try but seriously, it's pure gold
Any problems you might have with Family Guy, American Dad either fixes or gets rid of. Seth MacFarlane dipped from the writer's room super early in the show's run, and the writers and showrunners that took over gave the series its own unique feel. For example, while FG is themed around big band jazz and showtunes, AD likes to use hip hop and R&B. The writers of AD also have an unspoken policy in place where any character that can be considered an extra or background character will have their own fun and unique personality. B11 notes in this video that he's in love with B7, and a future episode actually has a plot of him trying to kill him and the rest of B12 after being rejected. Also, four of the six (seven if you count Jeff) primary characters are voiced by professional singers (Seth MacFarlane voices Stan and Roger Smith, Rachael MacFarlane voices Hayley Smith, and Scott Grives voices Steve Smith, the one carrying B12 in this video), and the writers *LOVE* to take advantage of this fact.
@@KirbyLinkACW Holy crap! So American Dad is the anti-Modern Family Guy? Sounds right up my alley considering I recently fell in love with Classic Family Guy, aka. Seasons 1 - 5.
I love how it's become a rule that every boy band parody needs two boys with the same first name distinguished by a last initial, even though that started with the Spice Girls and none of the famous 90's boy bands had it. It feels like a natural addition.
Ranking Vocals: 1. Steve (B6). Pretty much carries the song. 2. Boris (B10). Kills it with his first line alone. 3. Georgie (B2). Really got that smoothness to his introduction. 4. Abraham (B9). Same as Georgie 5. Constantine (B12). the high pitch is a little weird, but he’s got the right rhythm. 6. Abraham H. (B11). Love he sounds so good at beginning, and his voice turns psycho mode later on. 7. Snot (B7). Ironic placement, but despite his best efforts, he’s lacking. 8. Victor (B8). Has the right pitch, she just doesn’t really sing. 9. Parker (B5). Does he have an accent or was just speaking weird? Cause his line in the 3rd roll call is confusing. 10. TJ (B4). Jesus, that is a deep voice. 11. Toshi (B3). Can’t sing. 12. Barry (B1). Same with Toshi. Sorry Barry.
It's funny you mention that Abraham H. (B11) sounds more psychotic as the song progresses, especially considering what ends up happening in a later episode that involves Boyz 12.
"More boys than I think you've ever seen before" is the sleeper line of the song for a few reasons. It's like a "we're the biggest/best" type of bravado, but humble enough to be like, "maybe you've seen something I haven't yet heard of, but my guess is that we have the most boys you've ever seen together." Not even a laugh-out-loud line, just the smallest possible joke.
@@reeeec Okay, even if music history-wise boy bands started in the Western side of civilization that doesn't mean that this song still can't sound like a mixture of American Pop Music and Korean Pop Music. Just cause it it existed in one area first doesn't mean it is reminiscent of something else
@@DJovian K-pop doesn't even use this style in the 90s. The K-pop system is just copying American pop and hip-hop. This one has the feel of an R&B while being a piece of pop music.
This show had no reason to habe such amazing songs, but I guess they realized Steve's voice actor was an amazing singer at some point and decided each season needed at least one very musical episode.
Can we talk about how there was fat, girl, gay dad, depressed, and a myriad of other super fucked up descriptors that are wayy more serious than how they put it? (Outside of “gay dad” vs “my parents are divorced”)
It feels rare I see works of fiction give representation to that genre of music videos that look like the director couldn’t settle on one main concept.
@@lisaloolo1295 well it might be because some people would look older even though there are isnt synced with how they seem to appear. that or he has a disease that makes him look older. or he is older than everyone there
@Ethan Clark you don't have to be rude, sadly I guess thats the only gene you took from your parents that you consider good before they placed you for adoption? Or is it because you lack happiness so you would love trying to "hurt" others just to fill your own sad feelings
"I'm B4 and I'll make you sore" "My sister died" "My parents got divorced" This song is so catchy, you almost don't notice how messed up the lyrics are.
Nobody ever mentions it because it's animated... but one of these animators is a really good choreographer. It's noticeable in this episode, and also that Krampus Christmas episode. The dance moves are friggin' ON POINT!
That "i'm B6 I pick up sticks" just goes hard for some reason lmao. But let's not sleep on some of the other members, especially that halloween part. Those two killed it
its goes hard bc pretty much all the other members before him had the same flow in that part, but steve had a totally different flow from the others it stands out more 🔥🔥🔥
[Chorus: All] Girl, you need a shot of B12 You know you do [Verse 1: Barry, Snot & Steve] You got B12 flowing through your system Better lose that boyfriend, before I fist him B12 will make you feel all bright and alert Lay down on my bed, and take off your shirt [Verse 2: Abraham H., Constantine & Borris] [Abraham H]: Boyz 12, the biggest boy band and that's for sure More boys than I think you've ever seen before And dark leafy greens will give you other things But you'll get B12 when my men sing [Chorus: Steve & All] Oh girl, you need a shot of B12 Break it down!

Still haven't come to terms with the tragic deaths of two thirds of this band. R.I.P Georgie, TJ, Parker, V-V-V-V-Victor, Abraham, Boris, Abraham .H., and Constantine
Because I am tired of people calling me an idiot and because my comment was about Toshi SINGING in English and even though in an episode yea he says that he always could they NEVER HAVE HIM SPEAK IT I'm removing my original post and MUTING THIS!
Documentary Narrator: “Girl, you need a shot (of B12 (Boyz12))” was the first, and unfortunately, only song by the wildly experimental R&B K-pop fusion group. Shortly after releasing their single, the group’s manager, Lew Schneider, uncle to Shmuel “Snot” Lonstien, aka B7, killed himself after discovering his idea for a 12 star boy band had been outdone by rival group Boys 13. Without Schneider’s financial backing and industry connections, Boyz 12 was forced to break up. Tragically, most of Boyz12 would follow their producer to the grave. Some time after the band’s dissolution, the former members of the band were being hunted, and because Boyz12 was so short lived, no one connected the crimes until it was too late. By 2021, Georgie, TJ, Parker, Victor, Abraham, Boris, and Constantine had each been killed, all stabbed mercilessly in their own bed as they slept. The killer was moments from claiming his next victim, Steve Smith, when Smith’s father came to the bedroom door. Startled, the killer slipped on a skateboard, causing him to fall out of the bedroom’s second story window onto a trampoline below, catapulting him onto a flagpole, which impaled the killer. Bizarrely, the Smiths didn’t know anything had happened until the next morning when they were alerted by the screams of neighbors. The killer, now dead, was Abraham H, boy11. On the ground beneath him were a large hunting knife and an album of Boyz12’s single, the faces of each victim crossed out with a slash, including his own, believed to have been his final act, and Smith’s, showing just how close he was to meeting a tragic end. With Abraham H dead, and no manifesto or confession left behind, one can only speculate what drove the would be pop star to murder. After news of the incident spread, morbid intrigue pushed Boyz12’s single to the top of the charts, and the surviving members finally received the fame and adoration the others, sadly, never did.
Why does this not have more likes dude you wrote this so well it almost seems like you were a writer for the show Hollywood needs to give you a call man at least😂😂😂
The depressing part about this episode is that snots uncle who started the band "unalived" himself later in the episode because there was a better band called B13
Till Stan, Francine, and or Roger ruin it for him. Stan would totally try to make Steve go into a genre from that he always wanted to do. Steve would probably get a girl in his life and Francine would be trying to stop Steve from growing up, and Roger would be pumping him up and using him so like nothing new there.
They should make an episode about this, Steve basically does another song gets a record deal becomes infatuated with wealth and flexes it his family tries to take advantage of it and they all do and realize being rich sucks
0:43 IM B1 AND IM TONS OF FUN I-I-IM B2 I WANNA GET WITH YOUUU IM B3 WANNA BE WITH ME IM B4 AND ILL MAKE YOU SORE IM B5 ILL MAKE YOU FEEL ALIVE IM B6 I PICK UP STICKS IM B7 ILL TAKE YOU TO HEAVEN IM B8 AND I AM GREAT IM B9 AND IM SO FINE IM B10 I REMEMBER WHEN IM B11 IM IN LOVE WITH B7 IM B12 AND WERE- BOYZ 12
