Steel Panther - The Burden of Being Wonderful 

"If I was born in 1453, Leonardo da Vinci would be jealous of me": One of the greatest lines I've heard in years...

"so many people without talent" *Stix points a drumstick at us*

I don't give a shit that these blokes are taking the piss, their songs are fucking great and miles better than the vast majority of the shit that I hear in my car everyday. Yeah, I'm 44 and remember this type of stuff the first time round....this pastiche is still better than the shit that gets peddled as "music" nowadays........ Panther rock!!!

I'm just a Maserati in a world of Kias...

This song is an instant confidence and self-esteem boost, and it's still has the funniness to it too. Steel Panther is amazing. Definitely my favorite band, above all I listen to.

the fact he gets up at 11:30 already makes him superior to me.

Thank god there's still people that keep this type of music alive..rock on brothers

“How others see you isn’t important, how you see yourself means everything “

"The Burden Of Being Wonderful" Why in a world of ugly faces Should I be allowed to be so hot? So many people without talent Yet I was born with all the magical gifts I've got. The perfect body, the perfect face It's like God's best work all in one place But the haters hate perfection. Can't you see? It's a burden being wonderful like me. How in a world that's so imperfect Did I wind up with so much cool? Friends never stick around too long, Never feel like they belong. Next to me they feel like a fool. I got the grace of a dancer, a golden voice People seem to hate me like I had a choice Being this blessed is a lonely way to be. It's a burden being wonderful like me. Like me. So you say you wanna hang around Don't ever ask me to dumb it down I'm a diamond, I'm gonna shine Compared to everyone else I'm like a whole damn diamond mine. Oh, yeah... I'm just a Maserati in a world of Kias Genius would describe any of my ideas If I was born in 1453 Leonardo Da Vinci would be jealous of me But a world of Stevie Wonders will never see. It's a burden being wonderful like me.

Theres no reason this shouldnt be a mega radio hit, theres no swearing, no innuendos, quite unlike steel panther, but still awesome

for me this is actually a bit of a "feel good" song.

wouldn't it be better if he sang: "If I was born in 1453 Leonardo Da Vinci would have painted me"

This song and video is a freaking masterpiece! I can't stop watching it. "The haters hate perfection, can't you see"

This band is responsible for me growing epic hair.

"If I was born in 1453, Leonardo da Vinci would be jealous of me!" I've been a *Steel Panther* fan for quite a while, but when they nail a line that strikes right to the heart of my personal experience, they _nail it._ Now, if you'll excuse me, I must go design a flying machine. In a cave. With a box of scraps.

honestly, i relate to this song so much. its practically my life story. no one understands how hard it is to be perfect 😢😢

The question everyone wants the answer to: WHO IS THE GIRL AT THE END?

this is the first song of theirs I've ever heard and I'm already sold

Every friggin song by these guys is hilarious and good to listen to at the same time. How the hell is it possible? Usually it's either one or the other, not both.

I would love to see hair metal bands come back to becoming popular again. I'm also going back to collecting vinyl record albums.

Every time Satchel wears that headband I think it looks like he's wearing a sleep mask above his eyes.

In a world of pop and rap, we need more bands that rock like you Steel Panther.

Had Steel Panther not saved the fucking world; we wouldnt have had the opportunity to see this video!

FINALLY! A song written about me!

they fix my mood whenever i am sad

Great song. Great band. With Steel Panther, I feel like their lyrical content makes it hard for a lot of people to actually appreciate their musicianship, but every single one of those guys are incredibly talented. They always talk about how their goal is to bring the golden era of heavy metal back, and regardless of whether someone listens to their music out of disbelief or pure admiration, they are still exposing themselves to great rock 'n' roll music (in my humble opinion). I think they deserve more recognition, but at the end of the day it really doesn't matter; they're giving us a chance to either relive those glory days, or continuously imagine how awesome they must have been.

Finally, a song that speaks to my soul.

This song was written for me.

Every time I feel down, I remember this song and instantly regain the love I have for myself. Rock music has healed me more than religion ever could. Whoever thought rock was the devil's work, was actually a jealous Christian who wished gospel was as enjoyable yet powerful like rock music. #DEATHTOALLBUTMETAL

"If i was born in 1453, Leonardo da Vinci would be jealous of me." Probably the best line ever.

how about someone who can see the video downloads it and uploads it on their channel?

I’m just glad there’s a song out there to describe how perfect I am.

F'n excellent guys! Great job, as usual.

Happy Birthday, Lexxi Foxx! Steel Panther's #1 lead bassist!

Let's get that sub count up, everybody!

Saw them open for Priest in Las Vegas last month and they were terrific. True entertainers and total pros. These guys know what they're doing and they were way better than Judas Priest. Priest should be opening for Panther.

These guys are the American version of "The Darkness" from England, only they don't take themselves seriously like the Darkness did, which makes the Darkness more ridiculous, and SP hilariously cool..

Today si a good day to wear My steel panther t-shirt

"I'm a Mazarati in a world of Kia's." PRICELESS.

A Maserati in a world of Kia's spoke to me.

SP kicks ass, and that girl at the end of the video: SWEET JESUS!

I chose to believe its about self confidence.

This Band IS so mutherfukkin' good!! and I don't even like to cuss :P , they bring the awesome bad & sexy in me :D Long live SP

Why is the thumbnail from If You Really Really Love Me.

As a vase who grew up in the 80's, I have to say that the sound of Steel Panther is absolutely fantastic. It's both nostalgic, and whimsical. The quality is absolutely top-notch as well. Truly grade A work.

that girl at the end though. my god! lol

You gotta love the "Lexxi hair flip".

I wish SP would write more funny songs like this instead of those crazy vulgar ones. But anything they do is comedy gold.

Steel Panther rules love this song

This should have 40M views. All parody aside, this is a killer band.

Hysteria 2014

This song got me really happy damn i was crying and this helped me a lot :)

dislikers hate perfection :)

Biggest troll band I’ve ever heard! I love it 👍😝

Great song! I really like this. Kudos to Steel Panther for managing to be funny for song without using over-the-top sexual humor. Don't get me wrong: I really like the "dirty" songs but sometimes, it becomes too much. I will definitely play this on my radio show one day.

There is a bit of Steel Panther in all of us. 🤘

Lexxi on the double bass :D

when i grow up i want to be fabulous like them

this is just awesome

I'm just a Maserati in a world of Kias Genius wouldn't describe any of my ideas If I was born in 1453 Leonardo da Vinci would be jelous of me But a world of Stevie Wonders would never see It's a burden being wonderful like me. Unbeatable lyrics there! How do they come up with it. Genius

who knew they still made good music

Rob Lowe roast brought me here

I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH. Where do you guys get all your bitchin' clothes from?!

oh Jesus that girl in the end of the video is just perfect!!!

Paul Gilbert's The Echo Song meets Def Leppard's Hysteria.

I love to listen to this when I'm drunk. That's it. No explanation.

I love how the advertisement works even though the video doesn't, awesome.

These guys are the best. Talent, looks and humor. The world needs more of this type of music and skill.

Steel Panther the best band hard rock actually

If they get popular, these guys could be the new Aerosmith.

These guys are better than a lot of the actual bands that were around from that era.

Please keep reel music alive 😢

At first, I thought this song is dickish and hilarious as fuck! After watching the video and listening to the lyrics again, I realized this tracks true meaning. This is just awesome! Never judge a book by its cover? To that I say: Never judge a track by it's lyrics, look at the whole picture! :) It's encouraging and still hilarious! The video takes a different turn at this awesome track! Great work, Steel Panther!

Lexxi looks better than the girl at the end. Tbh.

Si esto no te sube la moral o el auotestima, nada lo hará

Sounds like hysteria of def leppard

I'm commenting on this a second time: this is my favorite song from the new album. Why? It's the only one that doesn't have any sexual jokes. Again- I like the dirty humor that Steel Panther makes but after a while, it becomes too much. This song still manages to be funny. I'd really like to see Steel Panther make a album with more songs that don't rely on sexual humor.

The perfect body, the perfect face, it's like God's best work all in one place. But the haters hate perfection, can't you see? It's a burden being wonderful like me.

Why in a world of ugly faces Should I be allowed to be so hot? So many people without talent Yet I was born with all the magical gifts I've got. The perfect body, the perfect face It's like God's best work all in one place But the haters hate perfection. Can't you see? It's a burden being wonderful like me. How in a world that's so imperfect Did I wind up with so much cool? Friends never stick around too long, Never feel like they belong. Next to me they feel like a fool. I got the grace of a dancer, a golden voice People seem to hate me like I had a choice Being this blessed is a lonely way to be. It's a burden being wonderful like me. Like me. So you say you wanna hang around Don't ever ask me to dumb it down I'm a diamond, I'm gonna shine Compared to everyone else I'm like a whole damn diamond mine. Oh, yeah... I'm just a Maserati in a world of Kias Genius would describe any of my ideas If I was born in 1453 Leonardo Da Vinci would be jealous of me But a world of Stevie Wonders will never see. It's a burden being wonderful like me

I used to watch these guys at a bar with no crowd. And they always had this act. I get so fun drunk and when the band was done they hung and keep the act too. While staring at them i realize its real. These guys love what they do and they live it.

in the age of political correctness steel panther is more important than ever.

I became a pilot a few years ago every lyric true girlfriends got jealous what I was going to do got knocked up to wasters regretting everything wishing they could turn back time How's sorry now give a ric flair woooooo

That's what you're supposed to think like! Thinking you're the hottest thing alive and women will be glued to you! Confidence is key!

Def Leppard music?

This video is awesome. I laughed the whole way through it :P

The transition when the main dude walks in the music theater from the backstage on to the stage makes me feel that the morale of this MV is that as cool as they are on show deep down they all normal dudes as well.

I love this song....Its all about self confidence!

Anyone noticed that the girl at 3:16 between Michael‘s legs is the one at the end in front of the mirrow?

I subbed because of Danny! THE POWER OF COLLABS, I can't wait for a NJSP and Steel Panther collaboration! Also Hoenn confirmed. POKEMON! FUCK YEAH!

That this song manages to both make fun and pay homage to fans it's really, really good work.

I would really like to see Steel Panther also performing serious songs. They perform Don't cry (Guns) perfectly! Good lyrics combined with their musical skills would be a great combination.

the only problem with this song is once it gets into your head you cant get it out!!!

Not long ago I dreamed that the guys in Steel Panther took me out to dinner. They disappointed me by NOT making a huge mess of any kind.

My brother once said to me, have you heard Social Service ‘s new album so and so berk of a phone. I said I thought they had died of manic depression.😂😂😂😂😂

Hell yea the best band ever!

The details are awesome. The rear veis mirror attachment on the beat to shit american car with a sticker of your fav metal band.....man i lived around this i was a grunge loser turn into chill metal head , so i was on the cusp of this era and lifestyle thank you for visiting with honestly and cringe worthy accents that remind us humans are never pwrfect in our comfort even when we are perfrctly comfortable.

1:58 Is that Sheldons dad?

Maybe these are the most true and real song lyrics ever recorded!

This is my favorite GnR song ❤❤❤

God, I know this feeling. lololololol.
