This is why I LOVE Children of Bodom. They have fun. All of their covers are fun. A lot of melodeath bands can tend to fall in that "taking themselves too seriously" category. And I'm glad these guys have the sense of humor that they do; if you aren't having fun with what you do for a living, then why do it? At least that's what I think.
God I miss that man. Still crying over him passing away. I learned so much on guitar from Alexi. But now he's an immortal Legend as far as I'm concerned. So there's some semblance of a silver lining. I hope he's remembered for centuries to come. And I hope his family has a Merry Christmas, despite his absence.
Amazing to see alexi purely happy in this video knowing how he suffered from depression early in his life. So sad at the same time watching it a year after he passed away.
Just when you thought the keyboard player was slacking off - 1:35. Love this video. One of the best covers, ever. They really seem like they're having a good time doing this.
Amo a está banda, no solo desde lo musical, si no como el grupo, la familiaridad, las sonrisas de todos, son chicos que se muestran muy felices, por que demuestran todo el tiempo su esencia. los amo sencillamente, los vi en vivo. lo mejor
"Lookin' Out My Back Door" (originally by Creedence Clearwater Revival) Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy! Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch. Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singin', [Chorus:] Doo, doo, doo, Lookin' out my back door. There's a giant doing cartwheels, a statue wearin' high heels. Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn. A dinosaur Victrola list'ning to Buck Owens. [Chorus] Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band. Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Doo, doo doo. Wond'rous apparition provided by magician. [Chorus] Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band. Won't you take a ride on the flyin' spoon? Doo, doo doo. Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows. [Chorus] Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy! Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn. Bother me tomorrow, today, I'll buy no sorrows. [Chorus]
Awesome tribute to one of the great oldies, Creedence Clearwater Revival :) Sure, the genres might be totally different, but if you look closely, they faithfully remade the original video and even kept the atmosphere with the occasional banjo and all that :D
Exactly. COB have fun with their covers; that's why they do one every once in a while. To take a song that is totally outside of your style and tweak it like this is always interesting. I've seen these guys live twice (American here), and they're amazing!
You don't know how much we need your music, master Alexi, from here to eternity. Every time I feel bad or sad, believe it or not, this cover makes me feel good and puts a smile on my face.
i love how bodom have a real good sense of humor unlike many other death metal bands....one of the few death metal bands who arent afraid to show that they have fun....i hate when metal bands have this sullen emo and depressed aura as if they have suffered great personal tragedies...
RIP Alexi. Will always remember you as you are in this video. Hope that wherever you are now you're having a blast like this.
Lives on through all of us who haven't forgotten him.
If you wanna communicate with the dead I'd advise purchasing a Ouija board.
Astro Hitz 705 always play this song..

mother fuckin yeah dude
Oh shit I had no idea he passed. Well may he rest in peace.

Jaska's smile in this video always makes me happy.
Brings joy to many faces
and Henkka looks kinda derpy in most of his shots

Epic! ❤
Oh daddy, if only you'd still be here for watching this awesomeness.
+alwayssum41 Ohhh very accurate comment
Love this cover. They do the video just like the original, lol.
I just realized they weren't only covering the song but also the official music video
Thank you Alexi for cheering me up in my worst moments with this beautiful music, you are sorely missed Alexi RIP
Amazing to see alexi purely happy in this video knowing how he suffered from depression early in his life. So sad at the same time watching it a year after he passed away.
I had no idea, now you're bumming me out. Well I hope he's resting in peace.
.. I'm going to miss him FOREVER
I showed this to my parents, they were very confused
haha same they were like wtf is this
haha same they were like wtf is this
deadman320 My dad was just disappointed.... :(
Showed this to my dad and he was just as amused as me. I'm lucky enough to be a daughter of a metalhead. Makes things easier! :D
My dad laughed and said at least it's funny. He actually is into some progressive Metal, but not so into guttural vocals...
most hilarious is that CoB also covered the same clip.
i mean what more kickass than playing this style in a cozy livin room.
W00T
I love this happy face!
Love you Alexi ❤
Just when you thought the keyboard player was slacking off - 1:35.
Love this video. One of the best covers, ever. They really seem like they're having a good time doing this.
So I accidentally added this version to my Spotify playlist.. Greatest mistake of my life.
They do Creedence justice!!
Children of Bodom are out of their element
0:58 Alexi looks sooooo adorable :D
0:58
This makes me really happy.
LOVE Alexi's Smile **

Alexi you’re we’re a legend man ❤️
RIP Alexi..
This dude owns stock in throat lozenge companies
I think this might be the best cover ive ever heard
I couldn't help but smile through this whole video. Best cover by far.
Bodom is a lake.. wow! Googld it. Googld it gold!
I enjoy this kind of videos.

Smile metal :D
It's a parody of a music video by CCR who were on acid while filming the play video
That damn smile, RIP brother
R.I.P. Alexi❤️🥺 We miss you dude
makes me happy
ШИКАРДОС!
Just saw the CCR version, and it's so funny that they try to reasemble the old video! Even the drumsticks are the same!
My dad, a huge CCR fan, laughed at this and then said, "What the hell did you make me watch? Put on the good version!"
What a huge parody of CCR!!!
I like both bands and they both preform the song great!
Cereal Music , Children of Bodom 'os
I think out of everything in this video I love that Bruce Willis poster the most
best videoclip of any band ever... so friendly !!!
great tribute both musically and video wise, well done!!
that voice is awesome !! those riffs are killing !! burning my brain !! hell yeahhhh

I love aleksi's smile and the way he looks so cheery here =) this looks like alot of fun to make, just a bunch of m8s pissing around in the studio =P
So kickass
I have always loved CCR, but COB has put a whole new twist on it and now I love it even more. KEEP ROCKING!!!!
i agree, love this vid.
love alexi!!!
Reminds me of “Famous For Nothing” by the Dropkick Murphys.
One of my favorite CoB songs. I love Alexi.
i think this is the best video
awesome cover, not only the song, but they even mimicked the music video too
I would love them to see live. They were in Worcester, MA few months ago and I wanted to see them but i missed the chance.
i absolutely loved this.
Children of Bodom are the only band that can make Bluegrass fun to listen to,
Country music*
my fav
Alexi Laiho.....we will never see his like again \m/
