This was indeed amazing. I really didn't want it to end. Loved seeing all the games and many that I missed. Also seeing matthew filming the wip vlog in the background is fun too. Must have been fun trying to quiety say "i want you games" randomly into the camera.
I was hooked when I heard the first few notes and recognized the song, but of course Paula's lyrics and delivery were pitch-perfect as usual. Thank you, Paula, for another great video!
My thought when I was entering SPIEL. It was so great to meet you there. I usually don't ask for photos because I'm too shy but your videos are so great and I also wanted to brag to my friends that I met you :X
Very amusing. It is strange. Essen is my home town and I go to the SPIEL every year. And now a person from the other part of the world makes a video singing about it. 🙂
It still blows my mind there is a Settlers of Catan booth. It would be like having a Scrabble booth. Hitherto uncontacted tribes own a copy of Catan. That "spotlight on a poster of Where's Wally" game looked wild.
This was hysterically entertaining! And so true. I would be the same in that situation. Now I want to know the titles of all these so I can check them out myself. LOL!
That's Butterfly Garden, which is the remake of Indigo by Knizia that Korea Board Games are doing. This reminds me, I should add chapters labeling all the games featured!
I think it took nearly 30 minutes for me to watch this video.....I kept pausing at each game to look at it, look it up on BGG, and then get back to the video.....Also, There were a LOT of people at Spiel!
It wasn't awkward at all, I'm so glad you said Hello! Matthew and I had just come right from an *actually* awkward interaction so hopefully we didn't bring too much of that energy into saying Hello back to you! (and if I seemed distant in that moment, that's totally why and I apologize for that!)
I've been freeze-framing through the video. What is the title of the space game at time code 0:33? And the title of the game that glows in the dark at 1:16?
I actually don't know the name of that space game, it just caught my eye as I was walking past. The glow in the dark game is Dying Light: The Board Game
@@alibob1986 I think it's probably mostly regional dialect and at some point down the line I was around people who said it both ways and so for me now it's interchangeable.
It's all about the money, so sad. And you're projecting an unpleasant attitude. To pay for Essen and a hotel, then try to recuperate the money lost by posting a monetized video... as if greed were good. You have good games, play them. The discovery is right at your fingertips!
All convention vlogs should be in song form!
I smell a collab ;)
Agreed! ❤
+1
I honestly don't know what to say...that was simply entertaining. And funny. And lovable. And just awesome. Thanks a million and so much more.
thank you those are very kind words!
Was fun talking to you at Spiel.
Great song, your creativity is suprising once again.
She’s an artist! Artists be arting 🥳😎

I had to swallow down any worries of public dignity haha
@@PaulaDeming hahahahahaah😂😂😂 who needs dignity anyway 😅
So great- thank you so much for this video!
Probably the best Essen video there is.
Super funny, super creative, I love your content. I was really happy to be able to briefly chat with you in Essen for 7 seconds. Keep it up!
I was hooked when I heard the first few notes and recognized the song, but of course Paula's lyrics and delivery were pitch-perfect as usual. Thank you, Paula, for another great video!
hehe glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant 👏 as always Paula
Thanks fo sharing, Paula. It was nice to meet you at the creators meet&greet, despite not having my final girl promo card ready for being signed.
it was so nice meeting you as well!
My thought when I was entering SPIEL.

hehe well it was my pleasure!
Hugely impressive musical commitment, especially the outro!
Truly superb, Paula!
HA, this was great. Thanks! Those games look like a blast, too. :)
Fantastic!!!! Nice job. Greetings from Brazil!
Outstanding!!!
Fantastic !!
No doubt in my mind. This will be a karaoke hit. I love it!
Makes me think of Groundhog Day if the movie was about playing games all day, over and over 😅 lol
This was amazing Paula, as it always is 🤩🤩
Beautiful!
Paula, you’re AWESOME!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Nice voice! And fun!
I laughed. I cried. It moved me.
I also cried but mostly for self-critical reasons
Very amusing. It is strange. Essen is my home town and I go to the SPIEL every year. And now a person from the other part of the world makes a video singing about it. 🙂
Fantastic job as always Paula! Loved it 😀
simply amazing 😁
Funny song and lots of cool looking games. Hope you came away with a bunch!
BEST. SONG. EVER.
Amazing!!! ❤
Brilliant!! I want this on my Spotify playlist! ❤
It still blows my mind there is a Settlers of Catan booth. It would be like having a Scrabble booth. Hitherto uncontacted tribes own a copy of Catan.
That "spotlight on a poster of Where's Wally" game looked wild.
Fantastic!!!
Oooh! Didn't know that you were there... Would have said hi if saw you there... Was fun!
This was hysterically entertaining! And so true. I would be the same in that situation. Now I want to know the titles of all these so I can check them out myself. LOL!
Now my constant urge to buy more games has a theme song! This is basically my MO.
You are so much fun.
Ok. This was pretty awesome!
Best video from Essen ever....!
Lovely. You couldn't convince Matthew to sing the Sonny part, eh?
I was half expecting to see a properly unenthusiastic Matthew singing the Sonny parts, too!
OH MY GOSH why did I not think of this? We might have to re-record and replace the audio track
@@PaulaDeming I expect to be thanked when the duet version wins a Grammy. 🏆
..and if you can't get MJ, please do a musical colab with LarryMou - she's got a lovely voice too.
2:47 "THE BEST THING ABOUT HEROQUEST..."
So Much games requires Many Many monies.
And THERE'S the shot of the red "see you next year" sign we saw you heading for in Matthew's vlog!
that is literally what I was filming in that moment hahah!
As a board gaming musical theatre performer I appreciate and endorse this video! 😊😊😊
and now the tune is stuck in my head. I'll be frolicking and humming all day. (sarcastic) Thanks.
I know how it feels
Nice work
This must be a no.1 hit ❤
What's the hexagonal path laying game at 1:59?
That's Butterfly Garden, which is the remake of Indigo by Knizia that Korea Board Games are doing.
This reminds me, I should add chapters labeling all the games featured!
@@PaulaDemingIncreasing number of games coming out of Korea?
Thank you! Reminded me of a game called Bombay Bazar which I used to play a lot as a kid
I was going to ask the exact same thing!
This is simply brilliant! 😂😂 we also needed Matthew to join ahah
It was a pleasure being able to meet you Paula 😊
I know, I don't know why I didn't think to ask him to help me with the duet! Next time :)
Love it! Can we, maybe, get reviews in musical form?
Brilliant
I saw more Essen games here than with others videos combined😂❤
I think it took nearly 30 minutes for me to watch this video.....I kept pausing at each game to look at it, look it up on BGG, and then get back to the video.....Also, There were a LOT of people at Spiel!
so so many people
What's the game shown at 0:33-0:34? With big spaceships and lots of dice.
I very sadly don't know! I didn't have time to stop and look at that one more closely
10/10 ❤
Ah darn, so bummed that I missed you, love your content! Next year?
Paula you kill me haha! Keep being you! You made my day xD
aw haha thank you! that makes me happy
Love it! I was so starstruck when i said hello to you at the asmodee event ^^. Sorry if that was awkward xD.
It wasn't awkward at all, I'm so glad you said Hello! Matthew and I had just come right from an *actually* awkward interaction so hopefully we didn't bring too much of that energy into saying Hello back to you! (and if I seemed distant in that moment, that's totally why and I apologize for that!)
@@PaulaDeming no, no, you were absolutely great 😊

@@PaulaDeming Thanks. By the way, I just joined your Patreon. I love your comedy videos. They're hysterical! And I can relate to them.
This needs sequels: I want more money; I want more shelf space; and I want more time to play games. Really enjoyed it though 😀
Great funny Video. Oh, Paula, you are so Beautiful you remind me of me.🧸🧸
Love this! Isn't addiction a wonderful thing to share?
PAULA!!! lol
hehehe
How many games DO you own now? Not counting expansions...
This was hilarious. It left me wondering whether the creative inspiration came while jetlagged?
hahaha amazingly I had the idea before I ever got on my first flight
Great Song! I hope you enjoined it at Spiel. How about Germany, do you liked it?
I love getting to visit Germany! Mosty because I love bread and pretzels so so much
Wjats the name of the game at 2.17. There are lots of games there. Wowo. Love the song..😅
I think that one is Babylon! Unless you mean the game where I'm flicking a die? Then that one is Boxtop Pinball: Haunted House
@PaulaDeming thanks , that was indeed babylon. Preordered and the wait begins.
That was funny. Although for me route and out definitely don't rhyme, but I appreciate it for you 🤣
for me it can be pronounced both ways! rOWt and rOOt ;)
@@PaulaDeming oooh interesting!! Is there a reason you'd say one over the other or is it just interchangeable?!
@@alibob1986 I think it's probably mostly regional dialect and at some point down the line I was around people who said it both ways and so for me now it's interchangeable.
Brilliant 😂
I tried to spot me and my group but alas, I was not in the video
Next year I make you singing about lovely Aventuria (after giving you a demo) :D
😍🫶😍
Well done! But do try and keep the roof, yes? =)
this is good advice
😅👍👍👍
Bravs.
In the chorus I dislike the word you, I implore you to change it to new, for an answer I will not accept no, it just bothers me so! 😅
ohhhh yeah that would have been a good way to go, you've convinced me so!
Cringey... deliciously cringey. :P
hehe

This video is not monetized. Calm down, it's just a silly bit of fun.
@@PaulaDeming the video may not be monetized, but the message pro consumerism is not one I agree to.
Brilliant 😂
