Pants Feet is a work of art and a masterpiece.
If you follow me on Twitter (it’s fine if you don’t) then you would know that I love the song PantsFeet by DJ Cummerbund. I have went out to say it is a great song and honestly one of the best songs I have ever heard. I will now attempt to explain to you why that is. Firstly it needs to be said that DJ Cummerbund is a musical genius. The man has an ear and eye for music mash ups like I’ve never seen before. His songs are not just normal songs but also MEMEs as well. Master shit posts for some while each is in its own right an at worst decent song. My list of stuff that he has that I like are: Everybody (machos back) PantsFeet FreckleFeet It wasn’t jupiter Shaq is in the elevator I believe in a pony This is the way america makes me feel Get out of my black or in too deep Play that funky music Rammstein Ownin up my heart Can’t get enough of your love, battlefield Blurry in the USA Dirt Shoulders This is in no way to say these are the only good songs but to show that he has this many songs I like while having many other songs. The songs here show a mix of multiple different genres that he can use and different times the music comes from. A great musician is capable of having the ability to use more than one style of music and DJC (I will now call him this instead of typing his full name) shows his musical range. I love music and currently have 1531 songs on my Itunes. This man has that many songs that I like and it just shows how good he is. However, we’re not here to just tell how great he is. I am here to explain why PantsFeet is one of the best songs ever. Before watching this maybe watch the song because if you couldn’t guess is already there are major spoilers ahead. First we have to break down the song piece by piece. It starts off with Nickelback. Nickelback is a good band. Yeah, that’s right. I’m one of the many people who like Nickelback and I feel no shame in saying it. Which is a scary thing because this is the internet and the “agreed upon” thing on the internet is that Nickelback is “poopy music for baby people” or something like that. “Their music is formulaic and isn’t even rock” is what the “cool people” would say. I don’t agree that they are bad. I don’t think being formulaic is a bad thing either. Finding a musical genre that works for you and keeping at it is what some bands do. Nickelback happens to do it well. This has brought their earlier works to meme status. One being the song Photograph. The song as stated earlier starts off with nickelback singing to the theme of Photograph. The song they are singing is just a part of “figured you out”. “I like your pants around your feet”. Those words are the main parts of the song. Either in that order or in some version of in multiple ways. Then the song picks up and the chorus starts blaring as the singer perfectly sings about how they love both pants and feet. Then it hits. Random old man playing a trumpet. The song returns from its small flair moment and repeats the main words of how he likes your pants around your feet. Then it repeats into the chorus like any song would do. Then it hits peak perfection. See Nickelback isn’t the first person to be “Nickelback” in the eyes of the people. That from what I understand, belongs to the band Creed. Creed was a huge act back in the late 90′s early 2000′s. They had hit songs even having one be a big deal for Scream 3. Creed coming in is what we call a “perfect moment.” He even changes the words normally said in the song that sound like feet to feet. Then it happens. We get Macho man. Macho man is DJC’s signature. In most songs he has Macho man say a rhyme or a line. This is no different. His line is a heartfelt one as, if you know the genre that these two bands play it is either “wholesome” kind of rock in soft rock or for Creed it is christian rock or has religious undertones. His message is simple and pure. He wants all his “little macho maniacs to stay in school and say no to drugs, yeah.” The reason this is funny (in a tragic way as in this part is not funny) is that wrestling was riddled with tons of drugs during the golden era. Also creed’s lead singer did a shit ton of drugs as well (however, the message with these two things is ironically funny). The song finishes with the chorus and drifting off into what the song is meant to sound like. A memory being remembered happily. That’s what photograph is meant to represent as a song. The end of the video is a promotion for Levi’s jeans. The perfect french kiss part of the ending. PantsFeet is a perfect song. It has no bad moment. Repetition is enjoyable (if you’ve heard of the bird is the word than you would know how it can be successful in music.) as well as it having 2 great sounding bands. It is a MEME as well. It just hits as a great joke that you can listen to multiple times. Because most importantly it is a great song. It’s not bad that this may be DJCs magnum opus. It just showed how great he was early on. The song is so great in fact that Nickelback even likes it. If you like music then you owe it to yourself to listen to this song.
