Anne Hathaway saying "Oh thats the Iron and Wine version" was the best way to close it.
“These guys love 2 things. They live rock n roll and they love arson.”
If Kenny G wanted to cover the whole album I'd buy it.

Would never buy, but would skip through a free copy looking for clichés and lulz
"Like, 2 and a half Polyphonic Sprees" - now I'm dead. lol
Oh Anne Hathaway, thank you for that.
The back-to-back lineup of Tim Robinson and Caroline Polachek is an unexpected delight.

This is hysterical 😂 Postal Service and Rilo Kiley were huge musical awakenings for me when I was a kid. And like.. hello! No one is more ✨iconic✨ than Weird Al

Tim Robinson made me laugh harder than I’ve laughed in a while holy shit
"Huey Lewis, I wanna an new YOU!" haha underrated joke and shout out to Aparna's bit.
Weird Al, Japanese Breakfast, Huey Lewis and Patton Oswalt in this video chat? Awesome.
I thought it couldn't get much cooler than Susanna Hoffs making an appearance. Then it went straight to Preservation Hall. Nice!
Love the callback to Duff’s scene in the original audition video. 🤣
The joy that this brought me is indescribable. Thank you so much for this.
OK so who else genuinely wants Kenny G to do an entire Postal Service cover album? Just me?

As long as his song shreds all the guitars.
The Kenny G cover was a no-lie banger.

This was not what I expected, but I loved it!! (I went through a whole rollercoaster ride of emotions when I thought we'd get new The Postal Service music and realized we wouldn't)
Wow Kenny G was doing it RIGHT 🔥🔥🔥
Dang...really thought we’d get new Postal Service.

This is an absolute BLAST!!!! Thank you!!!!!
POLYPHONIC SPREE being mentioned in the first three minutes and I’m hooked. This was surprisingly entertaining
Man, you can’t just drop Susanna Hoffs like that on me out of nowhere. I need to prepare myself to melt into a puddle.

this is perfection, thanks sub pop ❤️
9:30 Caroline Polachek for a precious fleetin moment
I would just like to point out that Vanessa Bayer was the only one who passed the audition. Vanessa, you rock! ;)
I missed hearing Jon Wurster's voice on a weekly basis
Love Jenny’s reaction shots.
So, but like, how much does it cost to just get a record of Kenny G just riffing over the entirety of Give Up?
This is a riot, can't believe I didn't hear about it before.

That final was perfect!
This is incredible!
wish huey had ripped a harmonica solo over a postal service song
I cant wait for a really cheesy horror movie to use Anne's version of the Iron and Wine version in their trailer
Why is every video with this group hilarious lol
rock & roll AND arson? sign me up
Arpana, Patton & Kenny G are the MVPs here. Props to Scharpling as ever!

I don’t know even half these people but it was great.
Wow This Was Very The Best Auditions Video Ever And Also I Was Very Happy to See Guns n Roses, Susanna Hoffs, Kenny G, Patt Oswald, Ishmael Bulter Lil Tracy Father, Japanese Breakfast in this video That was so A Surprise For me I Love thoes People all lot too
Brilliant.
Kenny G's saxophone oddly works very well with the Postal Service. I'd listen to a whole album of that.
Love this, loved the original “auditions” video haha
How did I only see this now? Amazing follow up
Vanessa Bayer hahahah, that was amazing.
Ohhhhh man that was great.

Jon Daly is so funny. Tim and him bouncing off each other was comedy gold.

This is the greatest thing ever! I also only just now realize I'm a boomer.

Joe Wong came in with that Just Jazzin vibes on top of a Postal Service song. sick.
How is ben Gibbard so good at everything
Entertaining!
LOL Anne at the end was hilarious
"J do you really want to get in the postal service? , uhm..not really"
Man I need that Kenny G cover in full
Ishmael imitating Ben's voice is my absolute favorite part of this
Shiela’s cat tree really drove it home😂
tim should have led with the night that the skeletons came to life, THEN arson
Big Freedia X Postal Service is a beautiful thing.
wow! Michelle Zauner!!!!
I was like, Anne Hathaway was in the tease but... and then, oh. Very funny.
I all of a sudden need a Kenny G Postal Service album so my mother will stop playing his greatest hits from the 90s. I mean, a new Postal Service album would be a great addition, too. Edit: Commas and shit. Edit 2.0.1: It's quarantine time. We're all knackered (I'm not even English), so I was waiting for a cross-town train in London underground, then it struck me. I was waiting until birth to find a love that would look and sound like a movie. So I waited with a camera and a van, and then I called you. I need you to pretend that we are in love again, and you agreed to. Edit 3.41: It didn't end well. Please refer to Beck's album Sea Change for more information.
Susanna Hoffs makes my heart beat faster.
The slash part was fun hahha
thank gosh for thomas sharpling.
12:11 Duff's face is exactly Smudge The Cat getting yelled at by the Real Housewife. Go look and compare, you'll die 💀
Loving Dave's Beehive mug!
8:25 if you're here to see the Tim Robinson audition
wow they cut kenny g off wayyyy too early.
TV on the Radio for sure
I love Rick Springfield and the postal service as my sister is a postal clerk.
+1,000 points for the Beehive mug. R.I.P The Beehive :(
Needs more Jenny Lewis

Okay, okay, I thought they were a British bank! They sing in a British accent... I actually thought it was the Pet Shop Boys when I first heard them. 😄
KENNY G IN THE POSTAL SERVICE WOULD BE THE SHIT
how did I miss this when it came out?
Huey must've been having a good hearing day when they streamed this.
Love Postal Service so much
This is so funny!
I vote for Huey!!💞💞
Best of luck to all 14 candidates in the NJ mayubinatorial race. Person ally, I'm backing the incumbent #Scharpling_2020
Duff and slash !!!
I was hoping for another Weird Al cover 😔
Honestly, the Kenny G one was pretty funny
I am still waiting for the Wierd Al cover of the Postal Service....
Brett’s American is spot on
Right now, I'm leaning hard no!!
"Far out, man"
100% BIG FREEDIA!!!! YOU ALREADYYYYYYYY KNOW!!!!!!!!
The only thing I’m wondering Dave is while you’re wearing a mask at home alone 🤦🏻♂️
I do not want to take away from the bands legacy of amazing hits with Denny, Nate, Amy and Duff... in anyway.. However, a full line of audition videos, audio books and merch could really take you guys to new hights... "Ive seen it. Seriously... You could use me!" (see original audition video for referance)
The humanization of musical giants is one unexpected outcome of this pandemic that I'm fascinated by, amidst the chaos of current events. Suddenly superstars are playing from their humble living rooms. The change in scenery really makes these hugely influential figures feel like regular people. Give Up means so much to me & often these songs help guide me through intense emotions, but this time it was really cool just to laugh with these people I've listened to for so long. Dave from Sub Pop: maybe the time has come for you to host your own show? I'm thinking Double Dare reboot, but the contestants are musicians from the label.
this a rude prank but ilysm jenny
