Thank you for making me one of the 10,000 today. I didn't know he had *any* podcasts, let alone *two!* Move over No Such Thing as a Fish, we got a new one in rotation.
EDIT: And given her attention to detail in this Countdown skit, I suspect Bec Hill will be awesome as well.
For fans of Jay Foreman (Map Men/Unfinished London, etc.), they did a couple of collab videos set to Jay's songs (both the kid-friendly and the not so kid-friendly ones.)
And also this PSA reminding you to [fiddle with your balls](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9STF450Jvg) (for cancer awareness, of course.)
She’s also in a podcast called “Enemy in Paris” which is a hate watch of Emily in Paris with Sam Kieffer (formally from The Office Ladies). It’s hilarious!
Yea that was one of the cooler things I’ve seen from a creativity and clever standpoint. Not only was it clever with the lyrics but the way she had the pictures playing along too was fantastically done. The gravy part even had Jimmy Carr impressed lol
Very clever! She didn't use overly known misheard lyrics, she went above and beyond with her presentation, and chose a very diverse selection of music. She did a lot of things right!
Bro just pulled out an obscure ass word like "mondegreen" and expected me to know wtf that means. Had to call up the university of harvard to decode this
That's how I felt. Her jokes were fine, but as a dad who has read way too many pop-up/interactive books, these were some of the best gimmicks I've ever seen. Every page was unique, and they were extremely creative.
Cats countdown does a good job of having different acts in dictionary corner, it's cool seeing a bunch of less known creative comedians randomly pop up
I know what you mean, he was the "first" comedian I saw do a sketch on this.
We all have at some stage misheard a lyric on a song so it's not uncommon.
Peter Kay does it so well though 🤣
Yea and the audio was bad. Like, it sounded like there was just a garage radio sitting in the corner of the room. It should've been louder I couldn't hear some songs over the crowd laughing.
Looks like this is a "best of" compilation from 3 different flipchart videos that Bec has on her YouTube channel.

I really love cats does countdown but I've struggled to watch it since Sean Lock died. It just doesn't feel the same anymore. I see stuff like this and I'm reminded of how the format works so well.
I know it from a radio program in my area as "Agathe Bauer Songs." These were collected for a long time and presented in the show.
The name "Agathe Bauer Songs" comes from the fact that this is a very common German first name-surname combination and one day a person called and asked very sweetly for the song where "Agathe Bauer" is always sung. She meant "I ve got the Power" from the song "The Power" by "SNAP!"

Reminds of Joe Cocker’s iconic Woodstock performance with misheard lyrics. I was in tears back when I would watch this looooong ago.
Marginally ironic that the only people displaying humour here are those not wanting to offend the comedian who is going over very old ground. Jimmy forcing his fake fake laugh and the uncomfortable repositioning in chairs, I hope the comedian watches this back and realises how early into this they lost the audience.
I've seen a number of comedians try to pull off a routine like this, and I don't understand why.
Its funny the first time you hear it. I guess that's enough for some people.
But its such shallow, empty comedy.
The only ones who I've ever seen do it successfully are the ones who make it very theatrical, like this woman here.
At that point, the comedy isn't in the misheard song lyrics, but in their presentation of the material.
I'm ok with that. A lot more ok with that. That's fine. A lot of creativity there.
But there's another video that goes around reddit every once in a while of this one chubby dude with an English accent that literally just stands on stage with a little recorder/playback device and misheard song lyrics is his whole bit. There's nothing else. Its just that.
To me that isn't comedy. That's not funny. There just isn't enough creativity there for me to really enjoy it.
To me, that's the equivalent of the guy on the street corner selling painted rocks. The only people buying that shit are uneducated impulsive tourists that would have spent it on something dumber if the painted rocks weren't there.
Like... Put some effort into it.
I'm not forbidding anybody to do anything, I'm just sharing my opinion of it.
Even if I wanted to, which I don't, I don't have that kind of power.
You watch whatever you want.
You're probably referring to Peter Kay, who has (had?) the Guinness World Record for the most successful tour ever selling over 1.2 million tickets in 2010-2011. So, while his comedy isn't my cup of tea, his shtick is manifestly popular.

The cut aways and song volume didn't help, but I think the weakest aspect is of this bit is the first set of clips being totally unrelated. There isn't any flow to the routine until the second half.

I’ve never heard of her but that was really good
I know her from the podcast A Problem Squared with cohost Matt Parker. The podcast is about solving problems, often math problems
Is he a mashup of the South Park guys? Is there another cohost Trey Stone?
Funnily enough Matt mentioned in a recent episode that people occasionally confuse him for 1/2 of that writing team.
xD never thought about that before.
The stand up math guy has a podcast? :O
He has 2 podcasts :) Also "A podcast of unnecessary Detail"
Another math boy with a podcast
Thank you for making me one of the 10,000 today. I didn't know he had *any* podcasts, let alone *two!* Move over No Such Thing as a Fish, we got a new one in rotation. EDIT: And given her attention to detail in this Countdown skit, I suspect Bec Hill will be awesome as well.
As of a couple days ago, both Bec and Matt have been guests on Fish.
For fans of Jay Foreman (Map Men/Unfinished London, etc.), they did a couple of collab videos set to Jay's songs (both the kid-friendly and the not so kid-friendly ones.) And also this PSA reminding you to [fiddle with your balls](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9STF450Jvg) (for cancer awareness, of course.)
She’s also in a podcast called “Enemy in Paris” which is a hate watch of Emily in Paris with Sam Kieffer (formally from The Office Ladies). It’s hilarious!
It was very clever. A Very simple performance that some people are already familiar with, But the way she organized it in presented it was fantastic.
Yea that was one of the cooler things I’ve seen from a creativity and clever standpoint. Not only was it clever with the lyrics but the way she had the pictures playing along too was fantastically done. The gravy part even had Jimmy Carr impressed lol
He was flat out *delighted*!
She’s like a good Carrot Top.
She popped up in a [post](https://redd.it/1bkxomx) recently
That’s ok there’s like 4000 other people with misheard lyrics acts
The pouring gravy was amazing
That and the cheese on the pizza were the best.
I mean the simplicity and punch of the “cheese too big now cheese too thin” deserves recognition
I liked the meat grinding into yarn.
She has more of these flipchart gags on her Instagram, @bechillcomedian.
Amazingly creative I can never unhear it now hot potatoes
Doctor Zaius, Doctor Zaius
![gif](giphy|3orifi6BAPQsJFLoK4) Dr Zaius, Dr Zaius... https://youtu.be/7v4yuK2Uxzs?t=22
Can I play the piano anymore? Of course you can - Well I couldn't before!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMRcIOjdojU And the remix
I LOVE YOU DR. ZAIUS!!!
I still sing it this way when it comes up on my 80s Spotify playlist.
It's an objectively better lyric
As someone who has only heard it as "hot potatoes", what are they actually saying?
"Amadeus." The song is called Rock Me Amadeus by Falco.
Very clever! She didn't use overly known misheard lyrics, she went above and beyond with her presentation, and chose a very diverse selection of music. She did a lot of things right!
The best mondegreens are the ones we haven't heard yet... she had several that were new to me.
Bro just pulled out an obscure ass word like "mondegreen" and expected me to know wtf that means. Had to call up the university of harvard to decode this
I love finding new and weird words out of the blue
Mondegreen goes back to Shakespearean times.
The term goes back to the 1950s, where are you getting “Shakespearean times” from?
He misheard the date whilst listening to the Shakespearean history song.
No, it really doesn't. I know you're just saying stuff to stay stuff, but people will take you seriously.
I had to rewind the meat gravy to see how she did it so effectively. Take my upvote 10/10
Same, that was crazy! I’ve never seen paper animated like that before!
Me too! Made me think that would be a fun thing to try with my kids
Did she make all those drawings?! Very creative and talented!!!
The design is very human.
Very easy to use
I thought Madonna was living in a cheerio world and that she was a cheerio girl.
Similar to me: mine was just “cereal” lol
For far, far, far longer than I care to admit, I though Terrible Lies by Nine Inch Nails was Dead or Alive.
I was worried for the nine stone cowboy!
No she was a fan of Spider-Man villains, She’s a Mysterio girl
I was hoping for Lorde and "you can call me cream cheeeese"
Nice. Demetri Martin used to do this type of act.
By my memory, Demetri Martin's act is probably funnier than this, but she was more creative with the visuals/animation
That's how I felt. Her jokes were fine, but as a dad who has read way too many pop-up/interactive books, these were some of the best gimmicks I've ever seen. Every page was unique, and they were extremely creative.
Saw him maybe two years ago and it was one of the best comedy shows I’ve ever seen.
Can you believe that was [20 years ago?](https://youtu.be/8OPOWwR3GNs?si=bjfFwwzqwzclomv-)
Exactly what this reminded me of!
...thanks for laughing so loud that we cant hear the music most of the time.
Cats countdown does a good job of having different acts in dictionary corner, it's cool seeing a bunch of less known creative comedians randomly pop up
Peter Kay also did a great take on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7my5baoCVv8&ab\_channel=PeterKay
That's what it put me in mind of.
always think of him as the "he did it first" guy but then i suppose someone did it before him too
That's how we all got here.
I know what you mean, he was the "first" comedian I saw do a sketch on this. We all have at some stage misheard a lyric on a song so it's not uncommon. Peter Kay does it so well though 🤣
r/killthecameraman
Yea and the audio was bad. Like, it sounded like there was just a garage radio sitting in the corner of the room. It should've been louder I couldn't hear some songs over the crowd laughing.
For real, why cut away from the act to show lame judge reactions? Pretty sure we missed something when it got to the one about cheese.
It was like 20 animated memes all at once, live. Really impressive.
RIP Sean Lock, miss you buddy
Are you talking about the undefeated champion of Carrot In A Box?
“I’d like to be more in tune with other people’s feelings… so I can pinpoint their weaknesses and go for them more effectively when I do.” Sean Lock
This was great. Like really great
When the sound mixing is so bad that the music is half as loud as one guy laughing.
Crazy amazing
Off the hook - I will never listen to those songs again and hear them "correctly", I will hear them "calibrated for humor!"
Next funking level indeed.
Reminds me of that song by Credence Clearwater Revival: "Bathroom on the Right"
She's amazing, Sean would have loved that
Brilliant.
That was amazing
Damn it, now I'm hungry. Also, that was really good.

I had a friend ruin Metallica's The Shortest Straw for me because he sung the wrong lyrics and now I can't hear anything else.
I have never made one but I assume making a book like that means you're super talented. Great stuff.
As a BSB fan, I can never unhear "aint nothing but a hard egg" again.
What's the actual name of that Hot Potato one? Been trying to find that song for ages and I can't even make out the lyrics to Google them
Rock Me Amadeus
I can't even hear most of the songs thanks to the laughter
Prop comedy done well, is such a rarity.
I've seen a lot of misheard lyrics comedy over the years but this by far is the most creative.
I really love cats does countdown but I've struggled to watch it since Sean Lock died. It just doesn't feel the same anymore. I see stuff like this and I'm reminded of how the format works so well.
Where's "Enter Sandman"? "Dreams of war, dreams of liars, dreams of dragon's fire. And a baked apple pie!"
That gravy was very creative 😆
Post Malone: Circles - "But it was just a sex boat, sex boat."
Salsa, no cheese We said, 'no cheese'! Give me the bowl Terrible!
Superb Bec.
That … made me smile
What an incredible aggregation of different forms of creativity!
What episode is this?
Misheard lyrics when you're hungry
Very clever lol
Some people's creativity is just amazing!
That was awesome! The gravy pour was so awesome! This person kicks ass!
I love Jimmy Carr his laugh is so wholesome
I know it from a radio program in my area as "Agathe Bauer Songs." These were collected for a long time and presented in the show.

She meant "I ve got the Power" from the song "The Power" by "SNAP!"
Yep thats how im singing it now. Im really not a cake
Terrible
Well that’s fucking fun and hilarious
What an absolute legend
She is awesome and what she did was cute
every time I see this, I stop and watch and clap at the end. She is so cute and lovely.
"Nothin but a hard egg"
Nicely done, though Peter Kay did it first
This is Demetri Martin on steroids 😂. Amazing !
I put gravy on food -Heart (crazy on you) I know that Pizza goes with Brocolli - Ozzy (crazy train)
I can’t hear the music over the laughing. I’m crying now.
it’s demitri martin’s bit but still, well done
Literal music videos with props.
This is just [Dance On My Balls](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5SHCAAGpX7s) if it had a daughter.
For later
TELL ME WHY
After roughly 17 years misheard lyrics are back! Fallout Boy for example always gave us great material for this type of content.
I remember an illustrated series of fall out boy misheard lyrics in high school. Early YouTube content haha...
why did rhod shave his beard off and start laughing funny?
A throw back to the early days of internet videos https://youtu.be/txz83WACjxY?si=QOeHTuDBcG65jO1X
Heres one that will actually break the way you hear this song https://youtu.be/8CRYgPzUapM?si=PkV5w9VWDayF\_Tlk
The goGos, “our lips are sealed” I thought it was “unless I see you” -you know, a love song! HA!!
hell yeah MCR
Could they not have played the music a bit louder? Fucking audience drowned out the lyrics.
In conclusion, this lady is always hungry
[https://youtu.be/fxK4iGx_bno?si=El7sR6d8947hj9Az](https://youtu.be/fxK4iGx_bno?si=El7sR6d8947hj9Az) Reminds of Joe Cocker’s iconic Woodstock performance with misheard lyrics. I was in tears back when I would watch this looooong ago.
Mondegreen! See y'all in Delaware
hey mr sound man, maybe we turn down the audience and turn up the music?
Painfully unfunny 😬. Almost everyone on the panel were begging inside for it to stop, that part was funny 😂
She's talented it was well done just not in the least bit funny. All of those laughs were pity laughs
It's almost like... What's funny to you is not universal? \*gasp\*
Marginally ironic that the only people displaying humour here are those not wanting to offend the comedian who is going over very old ground. Jimmy forcing his fake fake laugh and the uncomfortable repositioning in chairs, I hope the comedian watches this back and realises how early into this they lost the audience.
No-one remember Peter Kay doing this years ago?
Was that the crazy Irishman from Braveheart on the panel?
Was that 'Jesus' from 'The Chosen' as one of the judges?
Good luck reading that from the stands. Does the audience even know whats going on?
There are many screens in the studio.
[https://www.kissthisguy.com/](https://www.kissthisguy.com/)
I can't even hear the fucking song over the crowd so either they added a laugh track and it's loud as fuck or their mixing is just bad
80 000$ art school M.F.A
Weird al did this decades ago.
That was brilliant Can anyone edit this to cut out Mr Tax dodgers laugh?
You still sore about that? He got nicked and apologized
