I thought maybe the dog was going to be playing the Moog. Still, it's catchy tune.

I didn't look at anything but the title, but then the music started and I was like... hey, I know that voice. Rockin. How have I missed so much internet?

So this guy puts peanut butter on his Moog and his dog licks it off and then prances all over it? Such people should not be allowed to own Moogs.

if that dog and this cat could cut some sides together it could be a major step forward for inter-species relations.

I have a Beagle and an Arp. But it's far too valuable for me to put peanut butter on it.

Usually when interesting and unusual Youtube clips are posted while I'm at work, I can make a half-assed guess from the comments as to what I'm going to see when I get home.
You, sir, have stripped me of even that.

(I get to hear the new Nerf Herder album whenever my iPod decides it's too cold in the car, which is all the time lately, and this really is the best song on it.)

Yeah, I confess, I'm disappointed. While it was a nice, catchy little song, when I clicked I assumed it was going to be a weiner dog prancing around on a mini-moog and making noise much like the Nora the cat video Dr-Baa links to above.
So I'm giving this one a solid B, I guess.

Well, as I said, I can't watch it yet, so if you're joking, I can't tell by watching the thing. Peanut butter? Really? I feel stupid for asking but you're having me on, surely.

That was far too peppy a tune for such a lethargic wiener dog.

Oh, um, I have about 4 CDs in the car, and this is the one that's been in the deck lately. So when the iPod cuts out, I'm stuck with it. I realize now that, without knowing this, I look like a lunatic.
Also, prehensile lips.

Think how much more awesome it would have been if it was a sausage pony on a Polymoog.

From the video's description on YT: "Üter the amazing wiener dog loves to lick peanut butter off of a minimoog."
Lame. I bet it was organic PB, too. Yeah, the kind you have to stir.

Oh, now I get it. Bad 80s bubblegum music is back. Sounds like an obnoxious old Burger King TV commercial.

I would argue that valuable material such as this need not be a Friday only event. Every day could be wiener dog day.
The world would be a better place for it.

The dog probably thought the song was lame given that he has a heavy metal umlaut in his name: Üter.

Yeah, Nthing the horror at the Moog being abused in this way. If he's stepping on the keys, fine, but he's just licking peanut butter or something placed ON THE MOOG! Noooooooo!

The song's catchy, but darn it, if you're going to rub peanut butter all over a freakin' Minimoog, we need to hear the dog actually playing it as a result. It's the wiener dog and peanut butter and analog synth version of "this thread is worthless without pictures," for the love of Bob.

Wienerdog Minimoog was pretty good, but I really don't think it was Best Picture material, personally.

I'd always heard "moog" pronounced like it rhymed with "rogue," though, and so that kind of bugged me.
