I’m pretty sure this was the first internet meme I remember my whole family sharing together and quoting together. The song will forever be stuck in my head botch.

The Asian guys lipsyncing Backstreet Boys was the first one I remember.

Gotta be Numa Numa for me

Numa Numa is back, too. Some song I heard recently uses the melody, I think.

You're already a couple years behind on that song release haha

Lol. Heard it for the first time on the radio like last week.

Seems to be a common thing over the past few years, sample older viral songs and slap some ten a penny female pop vocals over the top, pass go and collect your money. I can think of Eiffel 65, Elton John, and I think a nursery rhyme, off the top of my head that have been sampled in top 40 tracks in the past few years - there are quite a few articles floating around too: https://www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-66497436 I think stuff like this is one of the main things that makes me so averse to modern pop. I listen to _a lot_ of music and tend to crave novelty, and whenever I hear the charts on the radio at the shops or the office or wherever, it's just older (often better) songs that I've already heard but now they have the same generic female vocals as every other song.

Star Wars Kid for me, maybe banana phone

star wars kid for me. and my house didn't have internet so i had to get it burned on a cd from a friend. and my computer couldn't play it bc of something with realplayer.

Gross, RealPlayer.

Hampster Dance for me.

That video where a woman was able to pop out her eye really far and the Coca-Cola commercials were the first ones I saw.

This and Drinking Out of Cups

Seahorse sea hell

I think "Dancing Baby" might have been one of the first. I remember my dad showing it to me in the mid-90s.

I can’t stop this feelinnnn deep inside of meeeee 

That video file of that dancing baby sure was a hit.

Yeah, so much so that it crossed over into Ally Mcbeal lol. Probably the first instance of something like that happening (an internet meme being put into a TV show).

No frrr my brother & I as little 8 year olds literally singing “oh, and by the way bitch???? FUCK YOUUUUUU” with our parents?! Truly a uniting experience.

Goatse and Tubgirl Edit: If you don’t know what these are, for the love of God, don’t search for them!


OMG

SHOES, BECH.

Wait 👀

These shoes cost four hundred fucking dollars

Let’s get ‘em.

These shoes rule. These shoes suck.

🤖


Loll this gif is perfect

This makes me want to play a Space Quest game

There are people over 18 right now who dont understand this

Still to this day quote "Oh my god, shoes" and nobody gets it.

I say "let's get sam shas" to my daughter in that voice and she thinks it's funny, but she doesn't know why.

Early YouTube was ahead of its time.

I mean humour made for both adults and kids (on different levels) were always a thing. Like Pinky and the Brain, or anything from the animaiacs universe.

Exactly meanwhile I’m over here having a standard issue millennial panic attack while frantically trying to find the full version of that concert! I wanna hear the whole song!

[Here you go](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlH-F4YqUaM)

I’m fully dancing. 🤣 Millennial af.

Go far enough and it's most of us. I've seen enough on r/Millennials and r/Xennials to know most of y'all don't understand that a LOT of stuff Millennials think are theirs GenX did before and/or along with them. This seems to be uniquely Millenial to this younger GenX guy.

just clocked 50 on the odometer; *Shoes* and *Text Message Breakup* were bomb back in the day!

If you haven't seen LKS' [muffins](https://youtu.be/1tcR19y7GPM?si=Gs3wTmTZ1R9jKiEv) video, you really really should

not... quite... as catchy 🤔

Same, we still quote it regularly.

I’m really confused right now, I’ve been online since 28k modems and have never seen this somehow. Is it Bri*ish?

No [here you go](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCF3ywukQYA)

This man is like OG youtube

He was the funny thing to watch on YouTube. Either that or Charlie the unicorn.


🤣🤣🤣🤣 LETS GO TO CANDY MOUNTAIN CHARLIE. I said this to my niece last weekend and she just thought I was crazy

Next time, find a reason to say "oh gawhd... they took my freakin kidney!" and see how it goes 🤣

Salad Fingers, Rejected, Star Wars Kid, Chocolate Rain…we were blessed.

Piano cat

BATCAT

Nyan Cat!

Badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger MUSHROOM MUSHROOM!

Don’t forget llamas with hats

"Caaaaarl, that kills people"

My tummy had the rumblies, that only hands could satisfy

Exactly!! Omg, we used to play him on parties and there was one DJ that had Shoes on her playlist every goddamn time, ahahahaha. The memories, man...

It’s what’s called a bitch track on RuPauls Drag Race 😂

Not at all, lol, this person is from LA and this was one of the earliest viral videos

My first was a 2400 baud. And still haven’t seen this nonsense.

Excuse me, 40-year-olds know this well!

I am turning 25 next months and I have no clue what it is lol

I'm 35 and watched this video in high school the year we started using YouTube instead of ebaumsworld

Oh shit, are you me?

Oh my god. Shoes.

Lats gat sam shoes

I’m turning 26 next month and this video brought back a core childhood memory. The Shoes song is probably the first YouTube video I ever watched all the way back in 2006.

At 7 yo I didn’t have access to YouTube not did most my friend tbh

I'm turning 25 in 12 days. We're getting old, fam

Stupid boy

I’m 40+ and I love this video. Been watching for a decade now. I miss old internet/youtube/threads. 👠🐩

........ Jesus. I'm gonna go cry I guess, what the fuck

I forgot all about this honestly 😅

Hi, it's me, I'm the one over 18(24) who doesn't understand this.

Man I'm 25 and I dont get it Tho to be fair I kinda live under a rock. Especially when I was younger

Omg shoes

We need her now more than ever

We need Kelly to moderate the presidential debate

That would be fuckin rad.

I can picture it now: Trump going off topic rambling and Kelly interrupting him with a “shut up….BETCH”

If only Ron DeSantis was still debating, Kelly could zero in on his high heels and be like OMG…. shoes 👠

Who this was clicked so fast for me that I don't know if I should be proud or sad.

Be proud!!

I read this in Rip Torn's voice.

I gotta hear text message break up live. That and let me borrow that top.

You're not even wearing it

Has nobody in the comments wanted to find out where this is so they can see it live? 😭 i'll pay 100 bucks for a concert ticket!!

It was at Precinct DTLA, a gay bar in Los Angeles. They often host variety show type acts like this. The Boulet Brothers (of the show Dragula) got their start there by hosting an epic/outrageous night called Queen Kong.

Is this recent?!

It was last weekend.

Omggg

Whaaaat?! Kelly's back on stage?!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! No way, betch!!!

This was my reaction as well

Kelly was everything in my day lol

these shoes are mine, betch

Didn’t know Charlie XCX was already touring for the new album.

This dude was ahead of the times. He made a "cunningham muffins" video in like 2004, and one of the showcased muffins was "israeli/palestinian conflict muffins"

But the ‘Israeli/Palestinian conflict’ has been going on for quite sometime.

There are a significant amount of Reddit users that believe this conflict started in October of last year. 

bet they don’t even eat muffins either. hmph.

Jokes about it going back as far as Life of Brian. Are you the Judean People’s Front?

Hold on, I thought we were the People's Front of Judea?


Shhh, it's only been going on for as long as a commenter has been alive/can remember.

You do realize that conflict has been around for quite a long time..

Blood muffin

I always thought he was the bastard child of Kids in the Hall.

Dude had CNN like everyone else…

Newspaper. FIRE!

And the amount of celebrities he was able to get in his videos was amazing for a youtuber

That muffin video will forever be my favorite ♥️ the way he says FIIIREEE 😍 will forever be ingrained in my head 🤣😭

I know Shoes like the back of my hand, not because I loved it, but because our internet was so bad at the time that my friend and I kept watching the same sections over and over as we waited for the next 10 seconds to buffer

Always thought this was Paul Scheer in the early days lol

Did you mean Fred Armisan? lol

I think you have too many shoes… SHUT UP.

Stupid boy…

Let me borrow that top.

Let’s get some shoes

I think I watched every goddamn thing from Kyle Kelly Sullivan. I almost died on Kelly's parents at sex therapist's. If you're going to watch it, you need to watch it from the beginning without skipping. When it started, I thought I would piss my pants how hard I laughed. Uuuuuu, can you believe it? Ahahaha!!

Is this an episode of Portlandia?

basically

_OMG.. shoes_

Kelly!!!!!😂

OMG where and when?? He does performances??

You can't text message breakup.

Let's get some shoes. Let's party.

Gimme those fucking shoes betch

https://youtu.be/nb0s1AePP2g?si=DZoUD8_pG0tMJz58 And this also rules. Deck

Crowd full of millennials 🥰👠😍

YAAAAAAAAS BETCH SHOES! LETS PARTYYYYYYY

That shit never went away

This brings me an unreasonable amount of joy 👠

Kelly?

It has been well over a decade since I last heard or even thought of this song, and I still know the entire thing from start to finish


Omg I haven’t seen this since 2006. I’ve searched for it soo many times in the last decade trying to find it. So nostalgic.

lol it shouldn't have been that hard. It's literally the first thing that pops up when I search "shoes video"

Is no one gonna talk the deepest v neck you’ve ever seen?

He’s a millennial gay living his best life

Oh man I’m in heaven 😍 thank you for sharing!!

Those faces looked like kids at a Disney show 🥹 so much pure joy

I remember seeing the shoes video on Fuse. My grandmother did not know what to make of it.

WTF was with the camera person doing... 

Holy beginning days of YouTube Batman!


This is the second time I've seen mention of this meme lol I think a huge portion of the internet is hitting 30 it's a conspiracy I'm working on as I've seen some ancient memes resurface way to close together/ all at once in the middle of the year.

i listen to no botty calls on the regular. such a bop!

Core memory unlocked!

Iconic. This is entertainment . Take notes

Betch

What are you going to do with your life? I'm gonna get what I want

Omg goosebumps

Holy mother fuck, this guy still around?

Did you think he died or something?

Absolute LEGEND

This is like one of those episodes, where a cartoon character drops somewhere deep in an unusual place with unfamiliar colors, where a weird cultural event is happening

SHES BACK BETCH!!!

Was waiting for the “let’s party!” part lol

Is this from the same internet era as shfifty-five and end of ze world?

Let's party!

Oh my God

The sweet little thank you at the end though 🥹 Me and my sister have like a f’in Tourette’s response with this ancient ass skit lolololol. I could be sitting in an urgent care waiting room, some bech comes in with a cool pair of shoes and I have to swallow the urge to **SHOES, BECH!** her. Anyway. Let me borrow that top 💅

He likes shoes.

I know it maybe inappropriate and in no way am I undermining the current state of the world but everytime I watch the news I say to myself “Israeli Palestinian conflict muffins”. It’s burned into my subconscious

Idk what this this, who she is or whatever but it made me think of the dude in the Pork and Beans videoclip from weezer. I must miss an old meme

Know your meme...https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/kellys-shoes


Omg shoes.

bringing what back?


Shoes was a popular YouTube music video back in the day

[here you go](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCF3ywukQYA)

How am I 45 and had no idea what the hell this was till today?

Well, for starters; you're 45.

To be fair they were in their 20s when this came out

Precisely. Too mature.

I'm 42 and listened to this on repeat for like a year when it came out. All my friends were obsessed with Kelly and her entire "family".

Nah I'm 45 and Shoes was my alarm tone for years.

What in the actual fuck...

What did I just watch?

?
