Agreed. I learned to play both "BBC" and "Daddy Wasn't There" on the guitar. I was amazed that the chord structure was at its base very simple, presumably to add to the 60s vibe. But the tune and lyrics are good, and the arrangement are brilliant. The songs were written by Susanna Hoffs (a.k.a. Ming Tea lead guitarist Gilian Shagwell) and Matthew Sweet (a.k.a. Ming Tea bassist Sid Belvedere), both excellent musicians and songwriters. I don't think those two are capable of writing a dud.
This song is half serious. I feel really bad for Austin. "I needed a father." "I'd sit in my room and cry and ask myself the reason why." That's deep man...that's deep.
Ironically, this was a movie I saw with my father and about a week later he abandoned me at a public park to get McNuggets and vodka. So this hits home for me. ((and also is a BOP!))
Me and my sister who used to watch goldmember on loop sing this about our dad who didn’t always give his full effort and still doesn’t lol. But he himself laughs at the song and will sing it even though his dad passed when he was 12. I’ll tell you man some experiences really do cause cycles. Glad to break it very quick.
@Maidensfan1 Excuse me? I DO know what I'm talking about. Her husband Jay Roach who directed the film confirmed it on the DVD's director's commentary, and anyway you can Google it, then you can decide whether you like your humble pie with cream or custard...
+itsjemmabond Yeah I only just found that out. Her husband directed all the Austin movies as well. Also didn't know that. Learn something new every day
This song is actually super good. And having Susannah Hoffs and Matthew Sweet in your backing band for a satire song is a dream come true to be honest. Honestly, Myers isn't even a bad singer. And daddy still isn't there if anyone was wondering lol.
@@KBzDvSt I remember Torontonian Christopher Ward from his MuchMusic MC days back in the early 80s. I didn't even realise it was him until just now! I looked him up on Wiki. I didn't know he was a songwriter. He wrote 'Black Velvet'!
My father skipped out on my wedding and hasn't talked with me for about 4 years. Now he wants to meet up this Saturday. Let's see how that goes lol Edit: it actually went good, he didn't pull a 180 but a 45 degree. Hopefully we won't turn back to his old ways Edit: it was a face. He's still a joy sucking vampire. I've forgiven him and just moved on. You just gotta drop toxic people from your life sometimes.
My son watched this movie with me for the first time earlier this Summer and EVER SINCE we keep walking around the house randomly saying "DADDY!... DADDY WASN'T THERE!.. TO TAKE ME TO THE FAIRRRRRRR!" lmao
This song is so good and so upbeat yet so sad. Like, it's supposed to be funny but If you actually grew up without a father, it's got a different feel to it.
Daddy Daddy wasn't there Daddy Daddy wasn't there to take me to the fair It seems he doesn't care Daddy wasn't there Daddy Daddy wasn't there to change my underwear It seems he doesn't care Daddy wasn't there When I was first baptized When I was criticized When I was ostracized When I was Jazzercized Steak and kidney pies When I was modernized When I was circumcised Daddy wasn't there When I was first baptized When I was criticized When I was ostracized When I was Jazzercized Steak and kidney pies When I was modernized When I was circumcised Daddy wasn't there to take me to the fair To change my underwear Daddy wasn't there Daddy wasn't there peace If you got a Daddy issue, here's a Daddy tissue D to the A to the D-D-Y D to the A to the D-D-Y They say it’s just a fact, but I’ve a dead beat dad D to the A to the D-D-Y D to the A to the D-D-Y I’d sit in my room and cry and I ask myself the reason why Daddy, Daddy D-A-D-D-Y, peace
Nichole Hdz I sung this song the whole time my family was driving to another state to see my father on his death bed. We hadn’t seen him in years but he wanted us to come and take care of his affairs. By the end of the weekend everyone was singing it. I know this is UA-cam and I just aired my laundry but 🤷🏽♀️.
When I was a kid my dad was in the navy, and when he wasn't doing navy stuff, he worked as a volunteer fire fighter so I never got to be with him, instead I have songs that played on the radio around the time when I was really young, those songs are my memories of him because he liked them, these were songs by the red hot chili peppers and 3 doors down. My parents are divorced now and I wanted to see if I could make my self cry by listening to those songs, I didn't shed a tear until I listened to this one. I realized I have so much pain and other strong negative emotions built up inside
7yrs not talking after I tricked him into meeting me at a therapists office (after years of dysfunctional interactions and lying to everyone to leave the state to go be with another woman) and first thing he texts me: 'It would be better for everyone if you did not attend the graduation party' (for my nephew. Which he did not attend btw).....for all that he seems pretty sure it's me but thanks for the support he wasn't giving ❤️🩹 I still went to the party and ate the cake and drank the punch 😌
i loveeeeeeeee this song :] it's great how all the austin powers movies have that little underlying serious theme involving him, but it still keeps its humor.. so great :3
+itsjemmabond I was being sarcastic because there is no reason for that comment. Of course it was funny that they have the same father. It was unexpected when I first watched it almost 16 years ago. It's not like you had any insight on the movie or had a witty joke or pun. You just stated facts from a well known movie. It's like commenting that Bruce Willis was a ghost the whole time on a sixth sense video
Glad we had the same childhood. Now when my sister and I hang out with our dad as adults he gets pissed af when we sing this song. He’ll be like “ when that happen to you.” So we just buys out a 🎶 DADDY DADDY WASNT THERE 🎶
My sister father was in jail basically her whole life and every time we all would fight with her we’d sing this and she tried to kill us with a knife lmfaoo
Although this song was made for satire, it's a really good song lol
It is definitely catchy..
Joel Ranglin concurred
IKR I fucking love it
Yes!!!!
It is sooooo ending 60’s every single element of music of that time is just there ... very good song indeed
This song has been in my head since 2002.
oh no its back
Raven Sullivan 2002 or the song?
Max Power so 15 years
Same
Ronnie houston Max Power is dead...R.I.P Max
This is actually a surprisingly good song.
I know he has a good voice just the lyrics are funny
@@westlycarver9280 the riff also slaps

"Someone has some daddy issues" Dr Evil
LMAO !!!
Anthony Mcqueen Nigel was Dr. Evil's Daddy too!
Love that part 😂
DADDY DIDNT LOVE MEEE

As soon as I read this comment dr evil said that.
If you grew up without a father, this song hits hard ! 🤟🏽
Yep good song indeed mainly if your dad left but for mine he had to leave cuz being bad
I did for sure💯 this has always hit me but it’s a great song
Fucking rights lol it made missing all those milestones worth it lmao
Farger done dead when I was a kiddo so this was my anthem XD
Mys wasn't there
This song is half serious. I feel really bad for Austin. "I needed a father." "I'd sit in my room and cry and ask myself the reason why." That's deep man...that's deep.
This song is from a movie about a guy from the 60s woh freezes himself to stop a bald dude with a cat
@@baconator2438 😂
lol are you trying to create some myth that mike myers didn't have a father in his life like the internet tried doing with will smith?
Not even emo bands can cut this deep

But was actually Luke's theme song
I thought it's grand daddy
Nah, this Anakin's theme song
Ironically, this was a movie I saw with my father and about a week later he abandoned me at a public park to get McNuggets and vodka. So this hits home for me. ((and also is a BOP!))
Damn, that's fucked up. My dad wasn't around also. But it dad sounds like as asshat!
“McNuggets and vodka” lol
DUde. For real? ): shit. Hope you're doing alright. Screw that guy.
To be fair mcnuggies and vodkies r gr8 tho
My dad committed suicide sooo, I feel ya bro.
lmao, kinda not joking or trying to one yup ya, I get it bro. Hope ur doing well.
I randomly just started singing this in Spanish class and three other kids sang it with me.
This made me tear up a bit , I miss school
hahahahaha when I was in primary school, I kept telling my friends how good this trilogy was but nobody had ever heard of it
Lol
Greatest crunch rock guitar tone ever.
It is good 'n' crunchy like.
If you've got an issue, here's a tissue.

For your pants, cause you're wet

OOF! it really hurt Austin when Nigel said that
lol

Honestly, Mike oughta think about having a tour for Ming Tea.
BubbaZen10 that would be awesome
he should focus on a new Austin Powers film
BubbaZen10 - Mike Myers, Susanna Hoffs, Matthew Sweet did live performances as Ming Tea, in costume, in LA clubs before the first Austin Powers movie.
I sing this to my husband when he doesn’t take care of the dog
Damn that’s fucking cold, it’d be funny if you sang that to the dog but nah you gotta twist a knife
Legit just came here to play this to my husband after the cat yowled at him for treats and he ignored him 😂😂😂
😆😆😆
😂
@@mftripz8445no dummy it’s because he’s not there for the dog 😂
The way this song randomly pops in my head after all these years tho....😭😭😭😂😂😂
Man I swear like idk how this popped up in my shyt LOL
Whahaha yes same
I always thought this was an actual song that Austin was just covering because it was appropriate
The lady in the band is Susanna Hoff, who used to be in the band The Bangles ("Just Another Manic Monday").
+itsjemmabond You're wrong my friend. Please make sure about what you're going to say before posting shit like this....

When ever daddy issues come up in movies, books, or real life my mind instantly conjures up this song.
Why does this song pop up in my head when I'm doing random things 20 yrs later like folding laundry, washing my car, or shagging baby YEAH!
Daddy issues
@@josevanreyes Lol!
Like if you have daddy issues!... Haha ha *cries*

Also Chris Ward who managed Alanna Myles during her black velvet days!

My father skipped out on my wedding and hasn't talked with me for about 4 years. Now he wants to meet up this Saturday. Let's see how that goes lol
Edit: it actually went good, he didn't pull a 180 but a 45 degree. Hopefully we won't turn back to his old ways
Edit: it was a face. He's still a joy sucking vampire. I've forgiven him and just moved on. You just gotta drop toxic people from your life sometimes.
There's always hope, even if he's on his deathbed
If you've got a daddy issue, here's a daddy tissue!
Damn man
I appreciate that you made this comment into a saga. lol. I'm glad you seem to have some level of closure on this issue. Best wishes
He must have forgot to change your underwear again.
Daddy wasn't there and he ate my fries
Adventure Time and Austin Power throw back 💕💖
This legit is better than 99% of songs this new generation haha
Sounds way better then half the music people make nowadays.
This song legit explains everything about my dad.
Felt that 🤚🏽
"Daddy didn't love me!" I love that part it's so funny!
Austin's dad is Alfred.
+Platinum Hit Michael Caine
That explains everything. He has no time for Austin. He's taking care of Bruce.
+Make Way u yyuy u k
LOL
No wonder Austin has so much swag, he gets it from Alfred.
This song is basically the plot of Spectre.
Brothers!
still slaps in 2024 🚫🧢
“It’s like he didn’t.... CARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE!”
I listen to this song unironically
Co worker said they watched Austin powers. Brought this up & everyone started laughing. For the rest of our shift 🤪
My son watched this movie with me for the first time earlier this Summer and EVER SINCE
we keep walking around the house randomly saying "DADDY!... DADDY WASN'T THERE!..
TO TAKE ME TO THE FAIRRRRRRR!" lmao
This song is so good and so upbeat yet so sad. Like, it's supposed to be funny but If you actually grew up without a father, it's got a different feel to it.
Gotta listen to this every Father's Day :)
I am a firm believer of the brilliance of this master piece, I am proud to call ART.
My dad used to constantly play the song lol good memories I miss him six years without him
So glad this is on Netflix now.
StressFree Gaming i came here bcs i just watched it 😂
This song will live in my head rent free 5EVR
Father’s Day theme song
At my graduation: "Stand up and take a boooooww daddy."
That's sad.
And nobody will laugh because they won't get what you're referencing!
Can we all just appreciate how hot Susanna Hoffs (Gillian Shagwell) is?
Been appreciating Susanna since her days in the "Bangles" 🎸 😍
She's Incredibly sexy, Definitely best Austin Powers girl
I just realized that the guy standing next to the queen is Michael McDonald. That's amazing.
There are a ton of comedians who are extras in the movie funny people!
hahaha me too look what I can do !
He was also in the first movie as the guy who gets run over by a steamroller.
+Max Power he's also in part 2 as the guy watching Jerry Springer

My daddy wasn't there either!!!

What a classic track here from Mr. Powers, he’s smashing as always.
Great Father’s Day jam !
Just stumbled into this today - this is cool on so many levels

Playing this song out loud today for Father’s Day lol
My boyfriend has been singing this for the last hour, so this is for him haha!
He is currently dancing like a 60s dancer lmfao!
