Robin Nickell I noticed how Rabbit slowed her rocking back and forth when he said 'Fellas' as though just as offended as Upgrade. I found it amazing as well that Rabbit, also not being a "fella", responded to Upgrade's bragging on how she was built by basically saying it didn't matter how they looked.
@@enabylcrypta3185 I noticed that too! I don't think Rabbit once called Upgrade a girl, but instead went by "robot that looks like a girl" or something along that, sorta hinting at her identity years before coming out. Glad someone else pointed it out and that it wasn't just me!
I love Rabbit. "Ok robot that looks like a girl." "Are we gonna play music or just shuffle around?" I found these fine folks a week ago. I'm already in love.
These were the original four. Then upgrade left, shortly followed by The Jon. Hatchworth joined, and near the last few years that he was there Rabbit transitioned from male to female. So, at that time it was 2(two) men and 1(one) girl. Then Hatchworth left, and Zero joined. Currently they are still at 2(two) men and 1(one) woman. That is the robot lineup so far(by what I know of the canon, however, correct me if I got anything wrong. Hoped this helped!)
This was still the point in which they were doing character development and stuff. Even The Spine doesn't act the same as he does now. He's louder and more animated in this video than he is now. If she had stayed longer, I'm sure there would've been some pretty good character development going on !
larj97 but he’s still totally a dork, it’s like he inverted cuz now on the outside he seems cool and the normal one but on the inside he’s a total goofball and a dork
I love Jon's energy when he plays his guitar. Something about it is so fun to watch. Look at 4:47. He obviously gets very into the music. It's fun to watch people be passionate, I guess. I sure do miss him...
this is such an acid trip being able to hear Bunny singing those low notes. She's so different now! I'm so used to hearing her singing voice more high.
I feel that Upgrades voice is really nice, almost operatic. It, however, does not go well with masculine voices. Maybe if it was just Upgrade and the Spine singing, it would sound better because they have voices at the two extremes and would sound better together, I guess.
i don’t know if you’ll ever see this reply but if you want to hear upgrade and the spine singing together you should listen to I’m Not Alone! it’s on the 2009 version of Album One and it’s very pretty
the leaving of the Jon was a mutual agreement, it wasn't that bunny or the Jon didn't like each other, or that they didn't agree on stuff, it just wasn't meant to be. it was a mutual agreement about his leaving, and it is a mutual agreement now on how mike and matt are gone. the main thing is to remember the good stuff and be happy with what they did together while they were still there.
From what I could gathered, The Jon began to have troubles to be present for shows and rehearsals. Apparently, he has a job and became a father around the same time. And we you think how much the band is asking, I think it was some kind of agreement that The Jon couldn't be in the band anymore because of his duties.
Shipping Moment 2,046: JON: You can stand next to Spine. I think he'd like that. SPINE: Good going Jon! UPGRADE: *Giggles and spins close to Spine* SPINE: OOOOH NO! RABBIT: *Stares at Uprade Angrily*
Every time I hear a version of this song I haven't heard before, I love it a little bit more...but I adore Rabbit's maniacal cackle at the end of the most recent version :3
I hate my laugh and voice, in hindsight when I watch this now the tension between them and upgrade is almost palpable. They have all come so far and I'm so happy for them.
I think that "waste of space" is more than a little harsh, but from what I've seen she does appear to be a bit superfluous. SPG has become a lot more refined over the years and Upgrade/Erin Burke's departure may or may not have something to do with that.
When they played this in Tucson, it was beautiful because everyone in the audience, old and young, sang along, and you felt the sound resonate through everything. Just perfect.
yeah, i agree. she seemed to be just tacked on. I watched the video twice, and covered her up for one of them and didn't really notice a change in experience.
not gonna lie i just saw this video about a week ago but ive always sung this song similar to how upgrade does in the bridge so at least i wasnt doing something wrong hahah
Did you buy their vinyl record? They just had a bandcamp campaign to get enough money to make vinyls as well as digital albums, the vinyls would only come if they hit their goal, and they did! So, I got two vinyls on the way!!
Wow, Do they have mics on their bodies and instruments? I know it's not the best recording situation, but are they on an amp somehow to come in so clear as this recording allows, or are they just able to be that loud, without instruments drowning out singing?
I just wanna appreciate in hindsight the perfection of the line "We're not all fellas." and the perfect irony of Rabbit's response.
Robin Nickell LOL

Bless her always. 💜💜💜

I love Rabbit.
"Ok robot that looks like a girl."
"Are we gonna play music or just shuffle around?"
I found these fine folks a week ago. I'm already in love.
rabbit is and will always be my favourite automaton xx
I found them three days ago and i'm in love as well :')))
Greetings from 2024 btw, how you doin?
"Y'know, we all come from the same inventor, so it's kinda creepy, Upgrade."
Upgrade: HA HA HA HA (she should have answered like that😂)
The la la da das:
Jon: being himself
Spine: cowboy lad
Upgrade: being cute and feminine
Rabbit: having some sort of attack
Rabbit's doing her best.
They originally had 3 men and 1 girl. The girl left. Now they have 2 men and 1 girl. Automaton math is a little wonky.
I completely forgot they had a second female on the band at one point. I think I need to rebuild my memory mechanisms
Don’t forget that one of the men left then a replacement came and eventually he left too
These were the original four. Then upgrade left, shortly followed by The Jon. Hatchworth joined, and near the last few years that he was there Rabbit transitioned from male to female.

Well they have malfunctioned
It's a trap
In retrospect You can hear the saltiness in rabbits voice when she said "okay robot that looks like a girl"
People hear what they want to hear whether it's there or not.
This was still the point in which they were doing character development and stuff. Even The Spine doesn't act the same as he does now. He's louder and more animated in this video than he is now. If she had stayed longer, I'm sure there would've been some pretty good character development going on !
larj97 but he’s still totally a dork, it’s like he inverted cuz now on the outside he seems cool and the normal one but on the inside he’s a total goofball and a dork
I mean his character the spine
its really cool how their characters have stayed evolving, like now i'd say the spine is more animated than this
1:05 was my favorite part
The Spine saying "NO" like a child is so cute!
I love Jon's energy when he plays his guitar. Something about it is so fun to watch. Look at 4:47. He obviously gets very into the music. It's fun to watch people be passionate, I guess. I sure do miss him...
You know if there music career failed they could have been pretty good comedians.
What would happen if the comedy route didn't work?
Screw You Go back to music. Duh...
Cor Autem Impii I'm gussing they just keep goin full circle?
It's genius. I love it
Screw You It's a foolproof plan. How could it fail?
Cor Autem Impii
It doesn't.
It's so nice to see how SPG started out :) a cute little street performance. It has grown so much, and continues to grow
this is such an acid trip being able to hear Bunny singing those low notes. She's so different now! I'm so used to hearing her singing voice more high.
She can still hit those low notes fwiw, and does on some songs. Just their newer stuff works with her voice being a bit higher.
I feel that Upgrades voice is really nice, almost operatic. It, however, does not go well with masculine voices. Maybe if it was just Upgrade and the Spine singing, it would sound better because they have voices at the two extremes and would sound better together, I guess.
Zero has an opera ish sounding voice too. Imagine if he and upgrade did a duet.
@@byakuyatogami2905 Upgrade's voice sounds operatic because it is. Zero's voice is not operatic at all. It's a blues and soul voice.
i don’t know if you’ll ever see this reply but if you want to hear upgrade and the spine singing together you should listen to I’m Not Alone! it’s on the 2009 version of Album One and it’s very pretty
The Spine nailing Rabbit in the jaw with his guitar ...

They clicked better though

And we you think how much the band is asking, I think it was some kind of agreement that The Jon couldn't be in the band anymore because of his duties.
4:24 Rabbit's range was so crazy back then.
She still has that range, just sticks to the higher part to feminize her voice.
She's been known to go back to her deep voice when they do this song
I find it cute how Upgrade was trying to synch up with Rabbit's la-da-da swaying
"What're ya doin' over here?"
"Standin' next to you"
That's me anywhere near my boyfriend
Are we all going to ignore the fact that Rabbit got hit in the face with a guitar XD
upgrade asked "where do I stand?" spine told her away... to the left...awwww....😞😞 💔💔
Rebecca Bowen I shamelessly ship it.
Sliiide to the left. Take it back now y'all
Shipping Moment 2,046:
JON: You can stand next to Spine. I think he'd like that.
SPINE: Good going Jon!
UPGRADE: *Giggles and spins close to Spine*
SPINE: OOOOH NO!
RABBIT: *Stares at Uprade Angrily*
I have no idea why but the Spine's comment about the "capo in the face" to Rabbit cracks me up every time I watch it.
"how was that capo in the face?"
"that was pretty nice."
The "Ladadadada's" caught me so off guard when I first saw this I just couldn't take it.
Suspicious Flaming Pyro rabbits rocking though
Seems so weird not hearing Rabbit and her megaphone telling me to atune my ears or counting down
I remember this day!!! I threw a small fit and begged them to do it!! Thanks David for talking Christopher into it!! And thanks biblio for posting! ;)
Every time I hear a version of this song I haven't heard before, I love it a little bit more...but I adore Rabbit's maniacal cackle at the end of the most recent version :3
Man, they've come so far these past four years. SPG YOU ROCK!
2:51 and 4:06 ...I just can't
best dance ever
4:24 Rabbit's voice is so cool on this part... i'd love my voice, if i could do that" (i'm talking about that very very Deep voice)
Erin's voice is so beautiful! Especially in this video. I love her laugh at 4:21.
+Meludox Me too I think it was missing somewhere.
I hate my laugh and voice, in hindsight when I watch this now the tension between them and upgrade is almost palpable. They have all come so far and I'm so happy for them.
I think that "waste of space" is more than a little harsh, but from what I've seen she does appear to be a bit superfluous.
SPG has become a lot more refined over the years and Upgrade/Erin Burke's departure may or may not have something to do with that.
The mime routine they have going on is so impressive, too. To be able to maintain that so well is beyond my capabilities
*you have a time machine*
*how do you use it?*
*watch every show and skit they put on live*
I am David olivo and I play as kitty
I would help them to support the allies in the wars they fought in
imagine being replaced with a bullhorn
Nah she transformed into the megaphone and got stuck
I love their genuinely funny attitude
OMG upgrade I forgot about you!!! The original girl of the band!!!
I hope this never disappears off the internet.
This -always- kinda was their big finishing number really.
To think that they've come so far, it's amazing
2:48 Rabbit! X3
I want to give them all my money T-T
CleverAndOriginalUsername, I'm want to do it too, human. I want too.
her coat is gorgeous.
"ok robot that looks like a girl" says Spine..that WAS funny...
+Rebecca Bowen Actually, Bunny said that.
+Charlotte Campbell well they are identical twins
I'm aware.
+Charlotte Campbell thats rabbit not bunny
still the same animal :v
Wow. This is adorable. I wonder how Upgrade is doing now.
I love to watch the people in the back that stop and stay for the rest of the vid, shows how talented and wonderful these guys really are!
When they played this in Tucson, it was beautiful because everyone in the audience, old and young, sang along, and you felt the sound resonate through everything. Just perfect.
According to the SPG website, she left to further pursue an acting career.
My gosh, Upgrades singing voice
...beautiful... O.O
I hope she gets some kind of minor in singing with her acting degree
AHHH I FOUND THIS BAND YESTERDAY AND I ALREADY LOVE IT SM. ❤️ THIS IS THE KIND OF BAND I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR ALL THESE YEARS
woah (probably) the first brass goggles performance :0 its always so funny to me how one of rabbits most iconic lines was originally upgrades lol
yeah, i agree. she seemed to be just tacked on. I watched the video twice, and covered her up for one of them and didn't really notice a change in experience.
not gonna lie i just saw this video about a week ago but ive always sung this song similar to how upgrade does in the bridge so at least i wasnt doing something wrong hahah
oh darn, i just found out about upgrade and she's not there anymore?
**
wow. i hope to see them live someday. :3 they are EPIC.
I love how they act to upgrade :P
I miss the dynamic Upgrade added to the group. It's like she kept Rabbit in check.
Upgrade was just adorable. Man, I miss her. :(
I'd go broke if I passed them on the way home.
Did you buy their vinyl record? They just had a bandcamp campaign to get enough money to make vinyls as well as digital albums, the vinyls would only come if they hit their goal, and they did!
So, I got two vinyls on the way!!
@@henrytawnn8694 I lost my record player ages ago.
Upgrade: Not all of us are fellas fellas
Rabbit/Bunny: Sorry, robot that looks like a girl
i wish i could hear some studio quality stuff with her in it.
Wow, Do they have mics on their bodies and instruments? I know it's not the best recording situation, but are they on an amp somehow to come in so clear as this recording allows, or are they just able to be that loud, without instruments drowning out singing?
the awesomest thing? I went to the walter robotics expo on the 18 and rabbit did that exact same shoulder dance during the chorus! X3
How was that capo to the face?
negithekitty pretty nice
Awesome! I love Rabbit's shoulder-dancing during the chorus. XD
I didn't know they were doing this song that far back. 🙂
from my understanding, The Spine, The Jon, and Rabbit doesn't want ANY hugs from Billie... AKA Upgrade...
Isn't her name Erin?
Groveshark has the original tracks from Album One with her vocals.
I miss the old SPG. :(
I personally like the new spg.
OMG I love this song so much
Please oh please Steam Powered Giraffe! You need to do that awesome dance with this shoulders mooooore sooooo hypnotizing !
Ok who cares if jon and upgrade left steam powered giraffe is still amazing now they have sam luke as hatchworth. Love you spine
Lot's of people care, they were both inspirational, I will agree I like their newer work more though.
AS long AS the spine and rabbit dont leave...
How was upgrade inspirational? I mean yeah shes a great actress but her musical skills are pretty bad and she had very few parts.
now sam lefts
And so now we have Zero.
Im very late but i havent seen anyone mention Spine hitting Rabbit with the guitar and saying "How does that capo taste" at 1:24
how was that, uh, capo in the face? that was pretty nice heheh
The people in the back! XD
Is it just me, or did Upgrade sound weird?..
Couldn't stop paying attention to:
1.) Rabbit's shoulder dance
2.) The people in the background (i dont know why??)
Rabbit have a deep voice in the beginning of brass goggles
Oh my god... The Jon looks so much better with longer hair.
Ran out of Crystal Pepsi sounds pretty canon :(
LOL i liked this for the whole "where should i stand?" thing
Does upgrade have a backstory?
Love this song, Rabbit is the best singer.
upgrade is such a cutie
David coming in late gives me life
theyre all such siblings im giggling
I can't help but wonder hows SPG would have evolved if Upgrade had stayed with the band thru Rabbits transition.
Ouch! Poor Rabbit. I think you were right. The original gameplan was safer XD Love the song (one of my favs!) and antics, as always:)
I miss Rabbits deeper voice
This song is amazing
"Standin next to youuuuu!"
jon and spine act like they don't like Upgrade...why not?? spine was like "noooooooooo"
467890
because upgrade has a massive crush on the spine, as rabbit says "yknow were from the same inventor upgrade, its kinda creepy"
Why does watching this make me sad and nostalgic?
The day when this was recorded was the 42th birthday of my mother
I love this so much
How did her acting career go? Also what happened to Jon, did he quite, or was he dropped by the band?
"Not all of us are fellas, fellas."
Foreshadowing?
(Love you robots.)
Does this sound like the Stray Cat Strut?
I feel like Rabbit and Upgrade are more like siblings.
the amount of nasal during the chorus, holy crap
AHH I LOVE THEM SO MUCH
