Just in case anyone doesn't know, though, she's still making music. Search "Lady Laura Jezebel" and you can find all of her solo releases up on UA-cam--she put them all up for people to listen to for free. It's 4 EPs that chronicle her time after being forced out of the band and getting divorced, and is some really moving, emotional stuff. Totally different than IFD, but well worth a listen.
Ok so for those who dont' know yes a parsec is a distance, but since the millenium falcon is fast enough it bent space and time to the point that it could do the kessel run shorter than the actual run itself. Hence...it did it in less distance. I'm sure a bigger star wars nerd can explain better but yeah.
The Kessel run is a smuggler route, which is roughly 18 parsecs. The line in the song is a reference to how Han Solo managed to cut the distance down to under 12 parsecs.
@MahztahTroll He was joking. But yea, it's a thing from Star Wars. Han Solo did the Kessel Run, which was this really deadly asteroid belt that was only used by smugglers, in under 12 parsecs, the only person ever to do so.
The Kessel Run is 18 parsecs long but as Han Solo bragged, if one were to take more risky action and cut corners, you can supposedly cut the distance all the way down to 12.
Yeah it's a Star wars reference hence the Han Solo picture. Fun fact George Lucas fucked up when he wrote parsecs because that does not measure time although he saved himself by saying it's because the run goes by so many black holes doing it in a short distance means he when through as oppose to around them. The More You Know.
It's a direct quote from Han Solo, and there are two common explanations for what it means. The official explanation: the Kessel Run skirts a cluster of black holes, and Han's ship was fast enough that he didn't have to go as far around, so the total distance of his route was especially low. A popular fan explanation: Han was just boasting and didn't know what he was talking about.
I think of the Kessel Run as a series of maneuvers that typically take up a lot of space and if you can do them at a certain speed in less distance, it shows your skill. That way it bothers me less.
So, anyone else reminded of Scott Pilgrim when you listen to this? Talking about both the movie and the graphic novels, because this reminds me of both. :| Mostly the graphic novel.
like with all nerdy mess-ups, it has a cover-up story. basically, the kessell run is measured on how far you travel as it has multiple wormholes through it, or something like that
The Kessel run is around 16 (if my memory serves me right) but Han can do it in under 12 because he is able to fly closer to the Maw. Basically he doesn't have to fly around all the shit because his ship is faster and wont get pulled in or destroyed, making the distance shorter. :3
It is interesting to think of how that translates to the speed once can achieve. in Star War under the official explanation. I mean a parsec is over 3 light years. So either Han is doing races that last well over 36 years or he is traveling WAY over the speed of light.
@Laramas Yeah, Chad too. I'm just Saiyan, you should have given those guys props, since they are the current band members, and this is a new song. Still enjoyed the vid, though.
lol oops yeah that was my bad. I thought he was pulling some Halo type of machinery that would cause him to punch a hole in space/time causing him travel shorter but instead he traveled next to black holes that WOULD warp space/time to make the travel distance shorter. God I need to brush up on my Star Wars D:
Aquaman is probably one of DC:s greater characters in terms of strength and abilities. YES! Hear me out! Aquaman controls pretty much every single creature of the sea, that is to say, the majority of everything living on Earth, which includes all the unknown to god- and man fold of creatures dwelling in the deep, not to mention his own ability to swim incredibly fast, which means he has all the necessary strength and speed to do that.Aquaman is only shortchanged because of uncreative writers.
Oops, you're right, the official explanation has been covered multiple times over. I do still like the "Han made it up" explanation, though. (As you can tell, I'm happy to ignore all the "expanded universe" world-building Lucas did later on.)
I swear this is the most underrated band I have ever seen. Some of this man's good songs are not found on Spotify and that's disappointing.

the picture at :43 made me laugh so hard.

Definitely one of my favorites. Love you IFD!
best band ever plus it mentions harry potter and sorcery
I kept hearing this at the end of Skits I was watching from Anime conventions. I liked the way it sounded so I looked it up, I'm glad I did xD

well done, i nearly rolled an arcana check to figure out the spells you cast to create such an awesome song!
I can't either! Chad Van Dahm-the drummer is my English teachers brother ^.^ I'm so excited haha

This is a painfully good video. me gusta.
@Nightsparrow626 Their entire Welcome to the Breakdown album does. If only they could've done the music for the movie. x)
how this band isnt headlining world tours is beyond me

WE want Laura back
This song would be perfect for a Young Justice music video with a mixture of all the pairings.

Good video for a 1st timer. My only criticism, NOT ENOUGH PACKY! :P
Maybe she's got sorcery, but I fight dragons, so I think that makes us even.
@Laramas Yeah, Chad too. I'm just Saiyan, you should have given those guys props, since they are the current band members, and this is a new song. Still enjoyed the vid, though.
Watching this video saddens me.. I keep trying to figure out if I prefer Mike or Packy.
EITHER WAY. IFD FTW!
I love any song that I fight dragons makes XD
DAMMIT! i was gona make this video, you beat me to it :P ur lucky your the first result on the search
lol oops yeah that was my bad. I thought he was pulling some Halo type of machinery that would cause him to punch a hole in space/time causing him travel shorter but instead he traveled next to black holes that WOULD warp space/time to make the travel distance shorter. God I need to brush up on my Star Wars D:
I love the legend of zelda pictures!!!!!!
The Kessel run is a route used by smugglers in order to bypass imperial ships.
The song that describes my dream girl
i heard "the faster the tredmill" once and now im hooked!
I'd love to see these guys at PAX one year
The run is around a minefield, so getting closer to the field = more dangerous = faster = better.
@zenthor1266 im a fan of the band what happened to Laura? cause i have no idea
@isbird100 if u want the song i think u can get it from there website
me too!!!! i got to meet them!!!
Considering that it's hyperspace, perhaps they were able to fold the entire Kessel Run into 12 parsecs.
@Nightsparrow626 except ramona's hair was never "jet black" haha
It's sad this song isn't on iTunes. :L
I'd like to point out that it isn't "Jetsons", but "jet set"
When he says eyes like a tiger.
@MahztahTroll unit of length in astronomy
So...where are these lyrics you mentioned in the title of the video? lol
@zenthor1266 how'd you get the pic ar 1:48 and if you took a pic while playing super smash bros how'd you get the red haired person?
@zenthor1266 It's an annotation, Can't you change it from "Jetsons" to "Jetset"?
@brudswick where'd you hear this??!!!??
You're only the 20th person to tell me on here, and I already knew. Still, 'preciated.
epic
this is so wierd. i saw them live last month and there were only four guys. :(((
Anyone know where I can download this? It isn't on Itunes :( and I don't want to pirate it.
Why does everyone assume I haven't watched it 20 times or so?
i like how all of them have dc universe shirts and then theres the guy with the captain america shirt
Aren't parsecs... you know.... distance?
Couldn't find Packy? That's okay, I'll use pics of Link instead.
Makes everything better.
......... I love you........
Definitely one of my favorite songs currently. I Fight Dragons rocks!^_^
@cws1012 what happened to her? why did she leave?
Speed has nothing to do with it, by cutting corners, one can cut down on the distance.
Pretty sure it's "flies with the Jet Set" rather than Jetsons ;)
i think the kesal run is a time limit
Raven from Teen Titans, anyone?
@Nightsparrow626 Ramona Flowers got sorcery
For the final time, I KNOW!!!!
Anyone know the chords or a link to a page that has it?
fucking epic.
laura come baaaaack.
i liked it when they wore the DC superhero shirts, Green Lantern FTW! stupid copy right rules
Doesn't mean it makes sense. Star wars uses it for distance literally in the next few movies
If I had one! haha
wait...what happened to laura?
yea zelda
this song is so lulu FFX
Aquaman is probably one of DC:s greater characters in terms of strength and abilities. YES! Hear me out!

@ShowThisToYourFamily put on annotations
@zenthor1266 that sucks.
dude...it's a star wars quote...don't question it -_-
Any lyrics going about?
when
ok whats a paresc?
It's a movie line.. Movie line.
And Laura isn't in the group anymore, sadly.
i saw them live at warped i reget leaving :/
Oops, you're right, the official explanation has been covered multiple times over.
I do still like the "Han made it up" explanation, though. (As you can tell, I'm happy to ignore all the "expanded universe" world-building Lucas did later on.)
If you watch Star Wars you'll understand. :P
Don't worry, it is no where near common knowledge.
She's a goth
PORRA UA-cam PARA DE POR PROPAGANDA NO MEIO DO VÍDEO
Jet set, not Jetsons. >.>
I heard she got married. Thats why she left the band.
i found this when i was listening to lazy song for a weird reason
Me. :3
lolz
This song makes me think of Sabrina the gym leader
It is incredible stuff, really.
Check out her site:

Super stuff.
but aquaman? really?
