In this fall’s hotly contested election, political candidate Chris Young is really giving Basil Marceaux Dot Com a run for his money. Admittedly, Chris Young is running for mayor of Providence, Rhode Island, while Basil Marceaux Dot Com is seeking the office of Governor of Tennessee. Although, you have to admit, if any two candidates running for distinctly separate offices in completely different states could somehow make it so that they were campaigning against each other, it would definitely be Chris Young and Basil Marceaux Dot Com. Don’t doubt it. Anyway, after the jump, I have posted two clips of your candidate, Chris Young, doing everything in his power to get the voters of Rhode Island to recognize that he is the candidate for mayor who best represents their interests, as long as their interests are singing excruciating songs about Jesus using a mini-cassette recorder as musical accompaniment while incessantly whining about how the morning news producers wouldn’t let your guitarist into the studio, and interrupting a political debate to propose marriage to your long-time girlfriend. If those are your interests, and let’s be honest, they are probably your interests, then please vote for Chris Young for Mayor of Deeznuts in November.
I have to agree with Chris Young. I HOPE YOU LEARNED SOMETHING FROM THAT.
And here he is proposing marriage. Every girl’s dream, I’m sure.
Regardless of how the election plays out in November, I feel confident that Chris Young is going to win Mayor of Needing Someone to Talk to and Possibly Prescribe Medicine in a landslide. (Thanks for the tip, Candice, Joe, Benjamin, and Justin.)

Chris Young is proud to be a card-carrying member of the Long Island Iced Tea Party.
lmao, you made me spit up my Chris Young & Coke
fags, Chris Young is God to make dirt like you think. lol
Providence has a proud mayoral history.
How do you do that thing where the words say something but it’s still a link?
Type this exactly where you want the link to go:
<a href=”put the URL you want to link to here“>put the text you want to display here</a>
Magic!
I know, right? I thought they had outsourced this job to Napoli.
stooges, Young rules!
I haven’t seen the video, but judging from the screenshots, I’d say that people need to stop using Chris Farley’s image in their advertisements. Show some respect!
Alright, how’s everybody? Good! Good! Good! Now, as your father probably told you, my name is Chris Young, and I am a candidate for mayor of Providence, Rhode Island!
Now, let’s get started by me giving you a little bit of a scenario of what my life is all about! First off, I am 35 years old.. I am divorced.. and I live in a van down by the river!
Now, you kids are probably saying to yourself, “Now, I’m gonna go out, and I’m gonna get the world by the tail, and wrap it around and put it in my pocket!!” Well, I’m here to tell you that you’re probably gonna find out, as you go out there, that you’re not gonna amount to Jack Squat!!” You’re gonna end up eating a steady diet of government cheese, and living in a van down by the river!
He is saying you are superfical materialistic people, Chris Young is making fun of the viewer.
Can’t you see Chris is making fun of you!
i can’t wait for his guest spot on Glee.
and I have to say, special, intimate things such as marriage proposals have no place in politics. Save it for a baseball game Chris!
Hey Chris I wrote a song about you too, and then included it on the Karate Kid soundtrack years ago since you’re the best around
As a Rhode Islander I can’t tell you how proud I am to finally get in on all this Alvin Greene/Basil Marceaux Dot Com craziness!
I think Chris Young is going to find the race pretty tight. Yog-Sothoth is running as the Tea Party candidate and has a lot of support.
Yes but Young is running on the very popular anti-Migo brain canister platform so he’s got that going for him.
Hey, Lovecraft! Upvotes, upvotes for everyone!
I suggest you all cast a write-in vote for “The Unspeakable One”.
Reading prepared answers to interview questions off of notes? Who does this guy think he is, Nabokov?
NOOOOOOO, we said NOoooo books!! To the bookgum with thee!
Chris Young’s ponytail for president!
At least he has hair on his head instead of your mother who has it on her face.
“Thank you, Mr. Chris Young. Your rebuttal, Mr. Cee-Lo?”
I am stealing this to use in real life situations.
I couldn’t make it past 1:15 because I have a hard time feeling embarrassed for other people.
I know what you mean–I only made it to 1:01. Once he pressed play on the tape, I pressed pause on the video. There’s no way I could handle watching him sing. I just can’t handle it!
UPDATE: I tried again and made it to 1:20. I don’t feel any better about myself or the world.
There’s something vaguely familiar about him and I’m trying to figure it out…
That morning anchor demonstrated a classic case of what happens when an attempt to make things a little more lighthearted actually makes things very, very serious.
It’s pretty obvious that Chris Young is only running for mayor to launch his singing career and as an elaborate way to propose to his girlfriend….And for those of you at home who didn’t hear, I said, “YES!”
Seems like he is smarter than you who have never done anything with your life other than feed off other people. Christ Young rules!
I was lost and then I watched The Rhode Show…..
Look at Gabe trying to pass for “our generation”… who does he think he’s kidding?
#jokesthatnevergetold
You look like a old hag anyway, just die bitch! Young rules!
Waiting for the tin-can-sounding intro to finish before he starts singing… Staring at the anchor while he sings with those “Providence Strangler” eyes… Pushing the anchor to nail down a date for him to bring back his band… I just can’t choose my favorite part!
I have a creeping (or creepy) feeling that the sultry stare and seductive singing ensnared the pretty young thing news anchor in the first video WHO THEN made a guest appearance in the second as his new fiance…
Love, eh? Strange and mysterious….
Not sure about the eligibility requirements for mayoral elections, but I’m pretty sure you have to be born on this planet to qualify.
Well looking at you four eyes, you must be from the dumb fuck planet! Young rules!
So… why does he have to read off a script to give an interview?
He is acting you dumb shit!
Wonkette says that the proposal was probably a stunt. Just another insincere lunatic, looking to profit from political office, this guy. I miss Basil Marceaux dot Com; at least he meant what he said.
Chris Young made a fool of a population that does not care that the corrupt run this country. Chris Young is God asswipes!
As a resident of Providence, this guy literally is my candidate. If I am remembering correctly, I think he has been thrown out of debates several times, at the most recent one he brought a three foot tall statue of the Virgin Mary. I am looking forward to not voting for him this fall.
Young kicks ass!
Luckily I can say that, as a Rhode Islander, I’ve never heard of him until now. Crazies in office: a Rhode Island Tradition.
At least he isn’t the Cool Moose Party guy.
Is this guy running for mayor or for American Idol reject? Zing! P.S. The way the anchor lady dodged his attempt at scheduling a performance for later in the week makes me think SHE should run for a political office.
Given the recent unrest there, I don’t think this guy has the political chops to successfully govern Deeznuts…
Yet he made national news making fun of you idiots, lol, He is good! He spent $1 dollar to run and made fools of the entire country. This world will end soon and you all will burn in hell!!!!!!!! Christ rules!!!!!!!
