Haha I commented, before I saw your comment, that the style in this particular tune reminded me of Weird Al's Since You Been Gone. :) That's the Barbershop of Weird Al. ;)
Marcus kills me at 6:00! I love his comedic role in the quartet as the guy who is just happy to be there, so hilarious! The other three crack me up too, needless to say I love this quartet!
Jake's stanza was just hilarious!!! The gibberish would aost make you think he had forgotten his lines. "Drinking country beer, and giving whiskey to my beer."😂😂😂
A worthy substitute for the original nonsense, where the real boot morphed into a fake boot that morphed into a homicidal knife that exploded in flames, while Jake the dog morphed into the real boot (most of which they probably couldn't do on stage)
The absolute best moment that I'm really sad that they didn't get to show in this video was the truck went for way longer than I think they expected it to go. It would have been really funny to see the camera follow the truck all the way to the side of the stage where it ended up. I was up on the top left side of the audience, and just seeing it travel off was hilarious
Absolutely loving the new repertoire direction for NF4 where it's really weird and wacky music. So happy to see them finally get a well-deserved medal and I'm excited to see what they bring next year!
I know these guys make us laugh but it is special when they give us those glimpses of just how incredible they are vocally like during the final stanza of this song. So gifted vocally and that gets overshadowed by the comedy sometimes
especially since it was their least reliant on barbershop in-jokes. I love that kind of humour but I'm getting a bit tired of having to pause the video every 30 seconds to explain all the *deep LORE* when I try to show them to non barbershop nerds.
Oddly enough, this reminded me (stylistically) of Weird Al's Since You Been Gone. ... maybe Weird Al should enter this competition (by himself, with clones)
The New Fangled four continues to be the only barbershop quartet that can hold my attention through a song. I suspect that means i'm more fans of them than the genre.
Similar for me. I enjoy the genre and do occasionally watch other group performances, but NF4's performances always keep my attention. They have a certain entertaining factor that makes them enjoyable to listen and watch.
Looks like a Schoeps CMXY 4V or 41V stereo mic. That particular mic has been discontinued but you can do the same thing with MK capsules, CMC6L preamps, and the SGXY stereo mic clip.
I found that at first, I pretty strongly disliked this performance. For some reason I really didn't like the lack of comedy. Don't get me wrong, there's tons of jokes and funny stuff in this performance but I just didn't find it funny. So I never watched this again. But then I realized... The arrangement is literally the best thing ever. 2:09 - 2:23 runs shivers up and down my spine and I can't thank each and every member of the NF4 enough for singing this. Every time I hear this song, my mood and my dopamine count immediately bump up by like a couple thousand points... whatever that means... I just am so happy that this song exists, and I cannot thank the arranger enough for creating this. And I'm starting to repeat myself but I just can't explain how much this song has changed my life in three weeks.
only thing worse would be a song parodying beauty and the beast's Belle but making it about the idiosyncrasies of the barbershop convention so dumb ugh
Y'know, the Newfangled Four is the only quartet I could watch sing a whole ballad for a boot and it not even seem out of character lmao
wait till you hear about a certain henge
“This is the part where I say something.” I had to pause it I was laughing so hard. Thank you, gentlemen.
The NF4 is the Weird Al of Barbershop.
Haha I commented, before I saw your comment, that the style in this particular tune reminded me of Weird Al's Since You Been Gone. :) That's the Barbershop of Weird Al. ;)
3:23 The fact we can't see the truck and only their heads turning makes this so much funnier ☠️😭
I was sitting above, it went so far, being able to see it travel was really funny
When you and your boys get matching bolo ties, you know you've made it in life.
Never thought I would see an SNL parody of religious country music get the barbershop treatment.
Marcus kills me at 6:00! I love his comedic role in the quartet as the guy who is just happy to be there, so hilarious! The other three crack me up too, needless to say I love this quartet!
Yes he is spectacular. Their performances are a masterclass in characterisation.
the newfangled four singing a barbershop cover of an snl skit before gta 6 is CRAZY
THE SLOW CAMERA ZOOM TO THE BOOT?? (1:58) IM CACKLING
It's giving music video in the best way! 😂❤
The cameraman understood the assignment
And at the end!
Jake's stanza was just hilarious!!! The gibberish would aost make you think he had forgotten his lines.
"Drinking country beer, and giving whiskey to my beer."😂😂😂

@@Lozza1991oh they can morph
@@avbartholomew Can't wait to see what you've got up your sleeve for them 😅
I truly think them giving Marcus a medal is the most underrated moment of the entire contest. So wholesome and hilarious. Love NF4
i'm obsessed with "tell all your naughty friends about that stanky little boot" in every possible way 4:46
The camerawork on this one adds so much to the comedy!!! I can’t get over the slow fade onto the boot at 1:18 it kills me every time
It's giving music video in the best way! 😂❤

Marcus is absolutely a gem. His comedy is second only to his musical talent.
Joey and Jackson Nickelback improved so sooo much, it's wonderful! Also 4:40
Love how Marcus turned up the inspirational informercial voice here 0:27

i gave some whiskey to my beer 🤣
Warning: this song contains a considerable amount of Jake's tasty near-lower-end voice.
The tastiest 😤
there is a reality not far from our own where joey is an incredibly talented lead
That moment at 5:39 is more wholesome than it has any right to be. I love it!
Love the softer harmonies of the ending! 6:12
I was gonna say. Mah gawd am I a sucker for those harmonies
the windup truck killed me
I can't get over how freaking good they can make the randomest stuff sound. So so good.
You should see the original SNL. Much better
The backing track at 1:30 is legendary! So good!!!
Jake's verse absolutely sent me. T-shirt flag indeed
The Newfangled Four are something very very special x
I know these guys make us laugh but it is special when they give us those glimpses of just how incredible they are vocally like during the final stanza of this song. So gifted vocally and that gets overshadowed by the comedy sometimes
I am crying from the absurd adorableness going on here!!! Love you NF4!!!!
Never thought I’d tear up about a barbershop quartet piece about a boot
I love this semifinals set. I feel this song was a bit underscored. Good job NF4!
Agree, and agree! This was my favourite set and I still have no idea why it didn't score better in Singing
especially since it was their least reliant on barbershop in-jokes. I love that kind of humour but I'm getting a bit tired of having to pause the video every 30 seconds to explain all the *deep LORE* when I try to show them to non barbershop nerds.
I loved the “aiming to get a medal” storyline that they created this year. Also, I CAN’T with the Ryan diss at 5:37! 😆😂
It wasn't a ryan diss, lol, it's cuz Joey has 2 college golds.
@@TheNewfangledFourlol
@@TheNewfangledFourI love how you just freaking bodied Ryan out of nowhere
this was top shelf. I love Wishin' Boot.
You make me smile so much, it makes my face hurt. I could understand the words. Perfectly perfect.
WISHING BOOT! YEAH!
I'm sorry, but the fakeout on the last chord is just beautiful.
Amazing to see how much they've improved in terms of choral quality over the years while never losing their comedic charms! Love you, NF4 ❤
Camera guys knew what was up with their dramatic zooms. 😂
i've been waiting for this one !!!
Loved the banana. Subtle but fun!
This is the part where I write a good and relevant comment
That tag was so good
Give these guys a medal already!!!
They got 5th place bronze medal this year! ❤️
It happened
Marcus already had one
@@saraalhashimi2650 I know, I saw it! I mean in the sense of winning the competition.
4:45 just me or does Joey sound like Elmo?
Read... The Newfangled Four ... Click ... That sums it up
well you can have that one ... made me cry haha
I love Ryan but I can’t imagine NF4 without Marcus😁
Oh my God!
It's a wishing boot!!!! 😂
This is the part where I leave a comment.
This rendition is AWESOME!! But man, I wish they kept Aidy’s original part about hookin’ by night & how she shot a John in Amarilla 😹
THE MEDAL OMG HAHAHAHAHA
Who's tryna ring wishin boot tag
they took snl + blake shelton's wishing boot and made it barber shop oh my god
Sorry, guys. I'm sure it was wonderful, but I couldn't hear anything over Jake's mustache.
Oddly enough, this reminded me (stylistically) of Weird Al's Since You Been Gone.
... maybe Weird Al should enter this competition (by himself, with clones)

Lol. I own that same boot. It's an Ariat. Much underrated.
I don’t care who took 1st thru 4th, after all these years NF4 deserved the win just for this song alone
❤❤❤
This is so funny. It did not get enough laughs
I would love to have them singing about paint. And the bass could be the artist.
So, this is the followup to the bananaphone hit I guess😂
Except Ryan took the Bananaphone mystery box with him, so they were left with a stray cloth to cover the boot.
Did they base this off of the SNL sketch?
Yes!
Does anyone know what mic is used here?
Looks like a Schoeps CMXY 4V or 41V stereo mic. That particular mic has been discontinued but you can do the same thing with MK capsules, CMC6L preamps, and the SGXY stereo mic clip.
@@JosephTateProduction thank you so much I really appreciate it.
who taught bob ross to sing?
What a dumb song and I love it
Oh my god, i hope this isn't about banana phones again. Just kidding, i hope it is.

This song sounds like something AI would come up with.
A song about a boot sheesh grow up
Right? Whoever wrote that song must be some niche musical talent.
