Tenacious D covering Wicked Game by Chris Isaak is as incredible as you would expect from these 2.

I need a moody black and white video of Jack Black singing in the clouds and Kyle Gass in a bikini giving sexy looks to the camera.
The original is a great song and ive heard some frankly awful garbage covers of it lately. But this was really good.
I heard this the other day on Sirius XM. I was very disappointed when they didn’t do the whole song. I really need a version where they do the whole song.
Goddamn I always tend to forget the man’s got a seriously good voice!
Unsurprisingly incredible. Loved every tweak they made in making it their own.
I wanna see him cover some coheed & cambria
That…wasn’t very good. I love Jack Black and I read the comments first so my expectations were high. Left disappointed.
The original is one of the most beautiful and haunting love songs in existence, imo. This is a great cover of that classic
I didn’t know Bowser sang!
I’ll be honest, I just want more Jack Black singing anything in my life. An album of D cover songs would be straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I don’t get the appeal. Sure, they play it nicely. But what else? Is it ironic? Or supposed to be funny?
That opening guitar riff is pretty sweet.
Jack Black is honestly an amazing singer, has insane range too.
Damn so good….I always thought this song was originally by HIM , learn something every day
This [Wicked Game cover](https://youtu.be/9dLuvr6yrtE) never fails to give me chills… Both amazing covers!
It is criminal they didn’t do the full song. The first 20 seconds of that gave me chills.
WTF man, why would you taunt us with only 60 seconds of aural bliss?
Just bought tickets to see them in May!! The Spicy Meatball Tour!
This is my biggest complaint about Tenacious D, right here. Absolutely incredible musicians.. yet so much time spent on comedy music.
All power to them for doing what they love, but I really want a serious album.
witch you
He needs to hire the backup singers that talk/sing in opposition to him during the song like Chris Isaak did when it was initially recorded. They provide an essential part to this song.
Ack, can’t get past that quacky guitar pickup sound. And there are mics there for them but clearly not being used in the mix. What a shame.
Do people think that’s how acoustic guitars sound? Absolute ear garbage ruining a great moment.
Dear acoustic guitarists and sound techs: if you can’t mic, impulse response pedals are here now, this no longer has to be.
Damn, I really needed this song today. Every now and then I’ll just get down and then I hear a song the basically reawakens my soul. Today, this was that song.
I feel like they’d do a good cover of Kate McCannon by Colter Wall.
Nice.
Just proves that to do comedy music, you have to be able to make good music before you can make it funny.
Favorite part of the video was seeing Kyle’s gentle smile starting to peek through after hearing his boy Jack just fucking destroy that opening.
You see the message of the D, is to set the artist free
Wasn’t this just posted yesterday?
The only thing I hate is that they didn’t do the whole song. Sounds great.
It’s kinda funny. The more these guys age, the less Kyle Gass looks like a homeless guy, and the more Jack Black does look like one.
Saw this yesterday but I don’t mind seeing it again.
KG out here convincing kids that Santa really does exist
Reminds me that I need to start watching Elf as it is that time of year. Kyle was hilarious…
“What about this: a tribe of asparagus children, but they’re self-conscious about the way their pee smells…”
Kage’s strumming is the real MVP here.
Haunting.
This is terrible
Why is Jack Black so incredibly talented at everything he does?
If you love covers of this song, plugging one of the most lovely covers of it I’ve heard: https://youtu.be/9dLuvr6yrtE
This seems to be very similar to the [Stone Sour cover.](https://open.spotify.com/track/3V1H6liHwCDcWeqdPJabOM?si=zUtJMCBWTwOdkF5olCxS7g&utm_source=copy-link)
There’s also an awesome [London Grammar cover on YouTube](https://youtu.be/Wo80bXyEbkE).
Edit: added link
Great songs make great covers.
