Jokes aside ian really did look good back then in his link outfit
couldn't agree more, he SERVED
He still does honestly
@@GiggioGamerHe's giving Dilf link
100000% 😭
He still looks hot as fuck!❤❤
I know Ian is portraying Link here, but he seriously looks like a midlife crisis Peter Pan watching his Neverland days 😂
Fr lol
This comment needs more likes 💀
@@maddiejoy6619 yeah true
It’s sad, but damn if it ain’t true, poor bastard
I mean, Link's design was inspired by Disney's Peter Pan so...
Ah yay!! I was wondering if we would see a Zelda Rap flashback!
However, I didn't make the Tingle costume. I made Link, Zelda and Ganondorf (including the wig and headdress). Link's hat was indeed filled with thin plastic grocery bags; I opted for the bags instead of filler/batting because they could shape the cap better without making it bulky or adding weight.
Even though I portrayed Zelda on screen, Kresta Ria Tabaranza provided the amazing singing voice of Zelda ❤ Margaret Caragan Aldrich did the fx makeup on Ganondorf, and Paula Barkley did the beauty makeup of myself and Ian (that 5 o'clock shadow, man).
Thanks for the info! You're gorgeous ❤
Had a crush on your Zelda back in the day xD good old times. Greetings from Germany the costumes were great.
Thanks for the corrections and other info!! Always good to see more behind the scenes.😊
Looking back, how do you feel about the face-licking and...other things?
You made our childhoods so much brighter. Thank you
Smosh has evolved from teenage humor to dad humor and im here for it
it's the same type of humor imo it's just timeless to me though, I'm still into it as an adult
@@reugtt65 yeah, me too! It just cracks me up when Ian makes a joke that nobody but him laughs at. :P they rock.
I cried laughing laying in bed with my baby sleeping on my chest 🥲 I'm nearly 30 and so glad they've reunited
Anthony doing this as a fully grown man just makes this 40x funnier
Given that Tingle himself is in his 30's or 40's, also accurate.
Would you like to come over and play Gacha Life?
He was fully grown in the original video too lol hahaha
Were they not fully grown the first time
He was like 17 lol@@Por-poI
Fun Fact: the woman who made the Ganondorf make-up on Anthony was in the show "Face Off," and a picture of Anthony (as Ganondorf) is in that show!
Wow! What's her name? That's really dope
@@d.sadster5684 Margaret Caragan! She’s in season 6! And Anthony is shown in episode one :)
I thought she looked kinda familiar
that's awesome, she did a really good job
Ian's absolute bewilderment at Anthony implying theyve had sex like he doesn't make a joke about it every episode
Joke?
@@alexpetrov5461 😂😂😂
Fun Fact: I had that Ian Link wink picture tapped to my high school agenda back in the day…
Good times, good times
I have a confession
This Zelda rap made me grow a bigger crush on Ian when I was younger cause he looked hot in the link cosplay
I feel so validated seeing someone else also say it😭
Of course!
Me too
Valid, I think long hair fits him, he should let it grow. I would really like to see Anthony in the Assassin's creed outfit and Ian a Link outfit again (in like an actual well-made one not this wallmart one XD)
@@trhenkt454I don't think he like his hair longer he said that many times
anthony calling ian a pillow princess was NOT on my 2024 bingo card
First submissive and breedable now this? Anthony what are u trynna tell us
@@ionax3I need to see what video he called him those things on 😂
@@vzadethats from the BTS to the apple vision sketch (i think??) but theres a short on their channel with that exact moment somewhere wait
Anthony and Ian having an existential crisis over the possibility that Miyamoto could have thrown the game while in the middle of an unrelated video is great
Okay, this really makes me want to see a Legend of Zelda reunion with Ian as washed up Link 😂
Courtney, shayne, chanse, Anthony, and angela (or Noah depending on characters)
Shane would be a good link ngl
😂😂😂😂😂
Yes! It needs to start with all of them sitting down in the reunion set but Beetle runs and cuts infront of everyone to sit down first because he always shows up to the stables in botw before you 😂
omg YES. and that can be the first reunion that Anthony does with them too! I love that
I did expect to see Anthony in a Tingle costume today.
Impressive.
you must be a prophet then
We love clowns
As a Filipino, I read that wrong.
Nobody asked you anyways leave
Anthony is absolutely rocking that Tingle costume. Also, this rap is legendary. One of the greatest songs of my childhood.
With assassin's Creed 3. I remember when they just released the game. Memories 😢
I don’t know how but he’s actually pulling it off, that suit shouldn’t look good on anyone
@dannyl434 it's the thigh seams, it's oddly sexy lol😅
He looks great in it.
Unironically had this song on my ipod.
Ian nearly busting out in laughter over his own fallout boy joke is truly peak smosh content.
Wait, which joke was that/when was that?
@@raccoon_master23:26 it was just a pun
my confession is that this video as a ten year old was my first proper exposure to the legend of zelda and was the only reason i knew the protagonist was in fact called link and not zelda
I love how Erin is just sitting slightly off screen on her own
Just director things
Erin is slowly becoming a less overbearing more likable version off Stevie from Mythical. I appreciate her being there
Say what you will about Stevie, at least she doesn’t have toxic ideas of what masculinity should be
@@sailorgallifrey1365 I don't know Stevie well enough so I'm gonna go the other way - what did Erin do/say?
@@lisa_vxng she said adult men shouldn't have stuffed animal, or that she would rather sleep with a man who has a fleshlight than someone who has a stuffed animal (there might be something else, but that's all I can think of)
"Wait rock not real?
If rock not real, how there?
If not rock..... cake??" While Anthony looks like a confused baby
😂😂😂 Kortney killing it with the editing😂
@gurlllwut3555 oh oops! Edited the comment to Kortney killing it with the editing!
They may think the pop culture references didn’t age well, but to be honest that makes the nostalgia for those of us who watched the video when it came out that much stronger. The jokes serve as a really good reference as to where the internet was back then. To me if feels like a little portal to the past, the early days of UA-cam. The UA-cam where hating Justin Bieber and making Chuck Norris jokes were peak comedy. I think this video and the song are absolutely perfect
Exact same reaction, honestly. Takes me back to my edgy teenage years.
>Chuck Norris
Now that is a name I've not heard in a long time...
With you all the way. It might be cringey or insensitive in retrospect, but stuff like this is a massively interesting time capsule for what humor and entertainment was like back then. I think it's very interesting and even important to study from.
100% agree. My kiddo came at me with a Chuck Norris joke the other day. I hit him back with so many. 😂
@@Scrofarfr Ian and Anthony walked so all these others could run.
Original Ian as Link: a pretty good interpretation of a more adult live action Link. Solid resemblance.
Current Ian as Link: looks like a homeless guy just robbed two different kids on Halloween and combined their costumes.
I love this comment
Last year Ian reminds me of the guy in Skyward sword who you played the tree cutting game tutorial with. The one who previously one the festival or whatever.
Ian spots a Legolas and Peter Pan walking down the street and just goes bananas
I'd love to see a music video made by modern Smosh! Especially with such talents as Courtney, Tommy, Josh, Angela, and Chanse on the team!
Same!!!!
They had 3 music videos last year
Shane would steal the show that man has closet rap skills
@@joshwadsworth Courtney always outshined Shayne in music videos (Shayne's good, but Courtney's fucking amazing) Then again, his verse in The Justice League Is Sad was amazing
Courtney was just talking on Smosh Mouth about how they want to direct a music video this year 👀
nothing could’ve prepared me for seeing anthony in that costume
kortney’s editing is always so fucking funny, i hope she’s receiving the appreciation and recognition she deserves🫶
Ian evolved from himbo to dilf
I love when Ian and Anthony dress up to match the theme of the video
The bananas were the best
@@liriodendronlasianthus or bring in elements to match it like the toilets seats 👌👌👌👌
We 100% need another music video from you guys.
Back then, I was literally trying to catch at least every three episodes, because of our poor dialup internet and library only access we had. The Power Rangers, Santa Claus, the Christmas stop motions were top notch. Especially the Fun with a Condom bit, was top man. You guys will always be legends!
Theory: It is necessary for Anthony to dress like an idiot sometimes because he’s just too pretty.
I see you're Team Anthony. I'm Team Ian myself. But you know, they're both pretty.. silly. Ha. Haha. I'll see myself out now
No but you're so right
As if Tingle doesn't make him more pretty
that's right, goodlooking guys can afford to look stupid once in a while. cuz they know reputation is not on the line lol
@@vzade I liked Anthony more too but I'm proud of what Ian accomplished when Anthony left the first time.
Let's go First Flashback with Smosh of 2024!
@@DiegoCraft_MCRespectfully, please go away
@@DiegoCraft_MCthat sucks
Anyways-
this song has lived rent free in my head for YEARS
Same,and honestly it still is
Yeah it's iconic and also it was so catchy I watched that video so many times
you know how a baby cant recognize its dad without their beard, thats how I feel about Ian in this episode
This video also had an unitended huge impact on Smosh Games. Joven has admitted that when he, Lasercorn and Sohinki were asked how they felt about becoming Smosh Games and they realized that Smosh were the ones made this rap and immediately said yes
13:05 Kortney, please don't stop editing, you're so hilarious i love it
was about to say the editing is fire
the zelda rap truly became a core memory for me,, i remember when it was released during my peak zelda phase and i thought it was the catchiest thing on earth. my parents hated when my sister and i would play it on repeat, but we persisted. true character development.
yeah same, it's something that will always live rent free in my head
Washed up link sounds like a good idea for a video
Zelda reunion episode when??
Ian looked hella good as link though
So according to Anthony Ian is both submissive and breedable and a pillow princess. Much to think about
It's at least canon in Food Battle apparently
So, so many thoughts
Yeah it's ok Anthony, Ian is also my unobtainable crush we on the same boat dude.
@@letterB229lol I swear to god everybody be wanting Ian these days...
Anthony was old smosh's hotty, but I feel like this time around its Ian.
thats what happens when you get rid of that ye ye ass bowlcut@@belle326
not even 5 mins in and we're already talking about ian being a pillow princess,, this is gonna be Good
Ian as Link made me have such a huge crush on him lol like yo me he’s the perfect link
Can confirm that at the time, these jokes were a hit. I cosplayed Link and I ran around singing this song at conventions when I was an annoying younger version of me and everyone would crack up and join me.
I have such fond memories of this video and those times that I'll show people in my life now and the aged pop culture references hurt all of us lol. I STILL love it though and would love to hear what the song would sound like if you were to write it today!!!
Kortney’s editing is superb as always
This music video back then solidified my crush on Ian. When it came out I was like “yep, I’m an Ian girl”. I was in looove with his eyes 😅
THISSSSSSSSS.
It has me crushing on him still LMAO
12:59 “If not rock…cake?” Props to whoever did these messages 😂
If Epic Rap Battles of History ever does a Link battle (like Link vs. Frodo Baggins or something) then they NEED to hire Ian as Link.
This is close enough to epic rap battles of history
This was my very first Smosh video back in the day. Now, let's get it back on Spotify.
Yes
YES
It’s already on Spotify I got it on iTunes too
I love seeing Ian's twinkdeath, truly fascinating
the death of a twink and the birth of a dilf
How could we possibly not want another music video?! Especially with Courtney saying on the pod that directing one is her dream. Make that shit a manifestation!
I remember a while back, Robin and Zelda Williams actually saw your Zelda Rap video and loved it!
One of my absolute favorite videos I edited with you bois!
👏
Belated Media is legendary!! Can’t believe you edited Smosh videos at some point!!
Finding out you edited videos for Smosh was crazy! Hope to see you make some more videos soon! Loved that Obituary pilot!
11 year old me really thought this song was peak music. Listened to it on my iPod RELIGIOUSLY
Being a classic smosher. Its nice to be in communities so old and having seen the certified classic, this was indeed a classic
Its magic seeing them again
"I'm Fallout Boy" absolute top tier joke.
You heard it on Smosh first: friendship is knowing every nook and cranny of your bestest bro's body.
“Spit on my ocarina and you can dance the Macarina”. Literally the only thing I could come up with to rhyme😂
Ian looks so good as Link back in the day but I agree with Kortney edit comments and Ian is beautiful now too!!
This will always be my “laser beam pointed at the earth, gotta sing a song to survive” song , salute to the legends
I, unashamedly, was very attracted to Ian dressed as Link for the Zelda Rap. And I know I'm not alone. 😅
I watched this so many times that I still have the words memorized to the whole rap.
Flashback with Smosh is just a brilliant concept, I'm so glad they're doing it! I started watching Smosh after Anthony had left and while I watched several older videos, I didn't get through all of them, so this gives me perfect insight into their earlier videos and makes me appreciate Ian and Anthony more. Also Kourtney's little notes here and there are hilarious!
Ian, you're beautiful
Also, we need a music video from you this year! Please 🙏
I can’t believe they didn’t insert the “bruh” bite in that pillow princess silence
the little comments from the editors are gold.
Love hearing Ian and Anthony talk about the details of this video. This video was my childhood
OMG
you need to do a smosh live flashback with the whole smosh squad! intergalacwhip, hangman irl, and fastest reader are so iconic
Ian did and does look beautiful. He's totally still in his prime. But he totally looked hot as Link in the original video
I absolutely would love to see a modern Smosh music video!
I LITERALLY SAID THAT I WANTED THIS AND REWATCHED THE ZELDA RAP LIKE 4x YESTERDAY. THE TIMING ✨✨✨✨ aaaaaaaaah im so happy. I just finished making my vegan burritos (first time eating burritos in general) so this is a perfect video for my dinner.
Bon appetite😌
I honestly think that Ian was perfect for the Link role. If there is ever going to be a live action Zelda movie, I want him to be Link. But only after he shaves his beard.
Glad to see a Flashback about one of my favorite Smosh videos. I watched this video and sang along alot as a kid
Remember Evel Knievel even being a pretty old reference when this video came out. He was more of a meme at the time than anything else. Sort of like how Chuck Norris is today.
3:51 and we're starting off strong on the ianthony lore in 2024
we're being well fed
I remember being in like fourth grade listening to this and my mom found out. So, she sat me down and showed me the lyrics and was like "Do you understand how vulgar this song is?" I remember like being on the verge of tears and apologizing because I didn't want my mom to be upset with me and never listened to it again lol
Flashback is my favorite show on Smosh right now. So good and nostalgic I love it
2:39 Ian is beautiful gang!❤
Ian being Link made me an Ianstan for life ❤❤❤❤
Damn, I love this.
Honestly Ian would be perfect for Link just because of how hard he slayed in the video
I can’t explain to you how much this rap has changed my 10 year old life. Like I remember the entire rap and tried to recreate this video with my sister in my bedroom🤣 Also think this was one of my first and favorite Smosh video
yall could recreate or remake legend of zelda rap with courtney directing. she did an incredible job with anthony’s funeral. i’d love to see what she could do with music videos PLEEEEEAAASSSEEEEE !!!!!!
"If not rock... cake?" HAHAHAHA HELP I love the editing.
Seeing you two go back and give more info to these amazingly classic videos is everything my 15 year old self wanted! I remember when this first came out and listened to it religiously. Love you both ❤
I at least want Ian as the uncle that gives Link a sword and wont let him leave until he takes the sword.
KORTNEY, the editing in this video is PERFECTION 😭👌 bless you for this
i love how these end being the crew side eyeing Anthony and Ian for their legacy
I wanna see a 5 hour long flashback episode where they watch all of ghostmates
9:23 You know what other moon is horrifying? The molestmoon you have in the upper right on the shelf. That vid was another golden one imo, even if it wasn't as S tier as the Zelda rap
I hope this comment reaches you guys because even though not as many people watch your flashback with smosh video, it means a lot to your og fans and is a really good representation of what you guys came from. Love the work you guys do and the team that comes with it. Keep it up!
The outfits, are amazing
This is BY FAR my favorite series on all of UA-cam. Makes me very happy
New music videos would be awesome! Many of them are in my list of personal favourite Smosh videos and I still rewatch them the most to this day
That is a epic rap. Still never get tired to listening to it. 💚
I was waiting for this one!!! So glad it’s the first Flashback of the year! Let’s freaking go!
I was OBSESSED with that song as a kid. Have not forgotten it since then. The chorus pops into my head all the time.
The Zelda Rap was a massive part of my childhood, and it's basically how I discovered Smosh. I know every single line of the Zelda Rap by heart.
Please make another Smosh music video, I legit miss Smosh music.
Also, was really hoping you two would’ve acknowledged Robin Williams watching and enjoying this music video.
Ian, you're beautiful✨ (2:39)
Ian makes me laugh so hard. The part where he realized how it feels to be a cosplayer. Literally just put danny devito qoute moment right there.
Love this episode so much can’t wait for another episode of “flashback with SMOSH”
I commented this on the Zelda rap 18h ago “Kresta Ria Tabaranza Doesn't get enough credit for the Zelda vocals. I hope whenever they do a Flashback they shout her out.“ Oh and the other comment was “Ian is so cute ugh.” STILL TRUE STILL TRUEEEE
Thank you for the shout out 🫶🏼 I was only 16-17yo then! What an awesome opportunity🥰
@@KO0LSAUCEso cool! You’re such a talented person with such a great voice. ✨✨✨
24:17 ian was so close to say something COMPLETELY out of pocket
What was he gonna say?
god i been waiting for this flashback omg :") i had used youtube to mp3 to put this+firetruck on my phone yeaaaars ago bc i was a child with no money, i hope to see a flashback for the firetruck music video one day too! yall genuinely made some bangers
I was a big Ian girly in middle/high school when I first started watching Smosh and this video was my Roman Empire. I was unhealthily obsessed
