[jackeroo02]

Whoever sang all the shit about "Held zum siegen" totally fagged it up. All the instrumentals were perfect though.

[karenduan6]

i learned how to play it with my electronic keyboard when i was a child.

I love this powerful music.

[austinguy23]

Nur in Wien könnte so ein Meisterwerk entstehen, wo viel Kulturen der K und K Zeit gemeinsam lebenten

[DJHeroMist]

lol see the dislike bar.. niether do i...

[Cayhem]

Diese wunderbare Musik sollte uns daran erinnern was für ein zukunftsweisendes und schönes Projekt die EU eigentlich ist, ganz abgesehen von den Konstruktionsfehlern, die zumeist im Namen der Gier begangen wurden.

[IceColdKoopa]

as an american i say, shut the hell up and listen to one of the greatest pieces of music ever played

[ErichWr]

I find it amusing how everyone is bickering about whose superior, while at the same time you all have one thing in common: you love the music! You're all missing the point of the song...

"Deine Zauber binden wieder was die Mode streng geteilt; alle Menschen werden Brüder, wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt."

[ThePunisherdesign]

Such a beautiful and remarkable piece of emotion, feeling, and empowering call through music that has and will always withstand time. I believe this embodiment can really unite people and demonstrate a peace that has been so long needed. To be hated and loved at the same time, Beethoven could really present a world so thoughtful, so heartless, and so refined as could other wonderful and distinguished artists (composers). To be able to compose such articulate music is so moving.

Name of the 5:06 movement?

I am unable to find this specific part of the song by itself, and the lyrics are also hard to find xD

any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

[hoszili]

Does anyone know the performer of this particular symphony... and I don't mean Ludwig van... :)

[ShuraCervantes]

Comment peut-on voter j'aime pas pour une pareille merveille...

[kurtywurty85]

I wrote a pretty disturbing story about eating baby moths whilst listening to this. What the hell?

[baconat3r]

@scholion biased comment is biased

[TheCaptainChronic420]

@scholion blow yurself. AMERICA!!!!!

[klutsekoku]

@scholion I bet you used translater ;]

[DeHeld8]

@scholion

What a weird display of quasi pan-european chauvinism. Europeans aren't any more intelligent then humans from any other parts of the word. Nor are Europeans any stronger or more "able" then any other people.

I call upon all working men and woman of the world: Abandon ye silly petty chauvinism and join hands. For the workers of the world have no home-country and thus nothing to lose but their chains.

Proletarier aller Länder vereinigt Euch!

[TokyoFreeze79]

@scholion

Shut up you Neutralist. If it weren't for the U.S. and Britain, your country would be oppressed and speaking German right now. Hell, that would actually be an improvement. Now I'm sorry we got involved when we did.

[Drboogerson]

@scholion

Yeah Hitler thought the same thing.

[HerlockSholmes123]

@scholion Yes, this symphony was definitely written to celebrate the greatness of Europe. It's actually right there in the lyrics:

Alle Europäer werden Brüder

Und fick alle anderen

Indeed, Europeans are simply superior to everyone else (it must be in their DNA or something). Never mind the fact that all of humanity (including Europeans) actually orginiated from (gasp!) Africa. Or the fact that it wasn't until the Renaissance that Europe finally got its shit together.

Ignorance, ignorance . . .

[desiii1703]

@HerlockSholmes123 sorry the lyric is "Alle Menschen werden Brüder" and the second in German is not a wort Ludwig have spocken ever but for you

Alle Menschen werden Brüder = All People become brothers

[HerlockSholmes123]

@desiii1703 Really? Can't you see I was joking? :D

[Shalgrom]

The greatest musician of all time, if not an equal to Mozart. We are truely blessed to have had such greatness in one individual to put "emotion, and power" to music. His skill, his work, and the writer himself are forces of nature. He was the musical reconning. No other can touch him, not even his teacher Hydn, or his contemporary Mozart. Like if you agree.

[RoastedStix]

i wish beethoven was my last name :(

[iBr00talxd]

Arigato, Shinji.

[gustavonobren]

Can wait for Ode to Joy II... when do you think it will be release?

[wollin20]

@gustavonobren Beethoven is working hard on it: Be patient!

[KennyEspling]

@wollin20 Might take a while. He's deaf, you know.

[Christiangjf]

@gustavonobren

@wollin20

Yeah, but its been 225 years! one can only wait for so long

[ilovedaftpunkALIVE]

@wollin20

ahahahahahaha!!!

[redneckjesus3]

@gustavonobren When you learn to type.  Probably never.

[Dachefmanney]

@gustavonobren it will sound out of every speaker at judgement day

[kingofqwerty]

@gustavonobren Like every other musician, all Beethoven does these days is dubstep :(

[justabloke1]

Already out. It is called Ode to Joy Feat Jay Z

[MagiKpeople]

I can't hear this without thinking about A Clockwork Orange.

Oh well, I loved the movie, so it's all good! :p

[Fug3Z1]

@MagiKpeople Can't hear this without thinking of UFC movie Warrior

[marvin5307ma]

@MrProsperousguardian Yes,more powerful than arabic and japanese together! :D

[MrProsperousguardian]

@marvin5307ma Sprechenzie Deutsch? I speak a little bit of Dutch, which is very similar to German. (Het is een genoegen om u te ont moeten. Hoe gaat het met jou?) But French is definitely the best.

Hard to believe the man was almost stone deaf when he completed this.. "Oh bliss! Bliss and heaven! Oh, it was gorgeousness and gorgeousity made flesh. It was like a bird of rarest-spun heaven metal or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now. As I slooshied, I knew such lovely pictures!"

[Witchking101]

Capitalism rules. 

[rickv90]

@Witchking101 ;) What does this song have to do with capitalism if I may ask?:P

[12azalkmaar]

@rickv90 It's the national anthem of the European Union, which is communist.

[djpnelson]

@12azalkmaar *Laughs hysterically* Where are you from, mate?

[12azalkmaar]

@djpnelson The Netherlands

[Skirmisher72]

@12azalkmaar Wat doet jou denken dat de Europese Unie, waar wij zelf deel van uitmaken, communistisch is?

[12azalkmaar]

@Skirmisher72 Omdat ze dezelfde idealen hebben als de Soviet-Unie

[Skirmisher72]

@12azalkmaar De Europese Unie is democratisch, de Sovjet-Unie is communistisch. Dat zijn twee hele verschillende regeringsvormen.

[12azalkmaar]

@Skirmisher72 Noord-Korea is ook democratisch.

[Skirmisher72]

@12azalkmaar Wtf!? Noord-Korea zou wel eens het minst democratische land ter wereld kunnen zijn! democratie=stemmen

[12azalkmaar]

@Skirmisher72 Noord-Korea heet eigenlijk DPR (Democratic People's Republic). Democratie betekent niet gelijk dat het land Kapitalistisch is. In Noord-Korea mogen ze wel degelijk stemmen, net als in de Soviet-Unie. Mijn punt is dat een land Communistisch en Democratisch tegelijkertijd kan zijn. Een land (of staat) kan alleen niet Kapitalistisch en Communistisch zijn.

[Skirmisher72]

@12azalkmaar *zucht* Laat ook maar.

[12azalkmaar]

@Skirmisher72 In een positieve zin of negatieve?

[Skirmisher72]

@12azalkmaar Hoe kan dat überhaupt positief zijn?

[MagiKpeople]

@12azalkmaar The European Union is communist? lolwut?

[fdsdh1]

@MagiKpeople I think the EU is funny. France and Belgium never follow the legislation but the UK and Germany try to follow it to the letter. Also in the UK nobody bothers to vote so UKIP (The anti-EU party) get in and insult Belgian people, it was very funny

[Yohr1s]

@Witchking101 Commenting on youtube videos is what Lenin would have done.

[dalvant]

@Xodion413 I'd add the part that's missing at 4:05 too. Why that cut??

The people here criticising each other is getting anoying. I just am here for great music by a Legend.

[quig66]

@@spartan480bce Why yes, as a matter of fact it is, sir.

[spartan480bce]

@quig66 i have no undertsnading of this sarcasm

[quig66]

@spartan480bce Yes, sarcasm like that.

[spartan480bce]

@quig66 is that sarcasm?

[quig66]

Holy f*ck boneheads, I am being sarcastic!

[spartan480bce]

@quig66 really? i couldnt tell



[bachinblack94]

@SpleeMatthjis Sir, please.

Thank you very much, even if you are probably mocking me XD...

[bachinblack94]

@spartan480bce well said, friend.

[ilyabold]

Превратите ликующую песню "К Радости" Бетховена в картину и если у вас достанет силы воображения, чтобы увидать "миллионы, трепетно склоняющиеся во прахе", то вы можете подойти к Дионису. Теперь раб - свободный человек, теперь разбиты все неподвижные и враждебные границы, установленные между людьми нуждой, произволом и "дерзкой модой". Nietzsche. GT.

[bachinblack94]

@quig66 maybe you don't know well what does mean "Communism", or maybe you're American and you are grown up considering "communism" like a totally negative political position. There's nothing of communist in my affermation, and, anyway, yes, i believe in the total equality of the men and in a universal brotherhood into all the human people. Am i a Communist? I don't think so...

[SpleeMatthijs]

@bachinblack94 You, Sir or Lady, are a hero.

[quig66]

@bachinblack94 Jesus...is sarcasm a lost art these days? I think it might be.

[bachinblack94]

OOH! The national anthem of the whole mankind!

[quig66]

@bachinblack94  What? Why that sounds like Communism!

[spartan480bce]

@quig66 You do realise Communism was the idea that all societies would be equal, that's it. It's only because of certain communist leaders (who are more like dictators) that Communism has a bad name. And of course Americans have an irrational fear of Communism, maybe because they don't want everyone to be equal...?

[quig66]

@spartan480bce Number 1, I am not American. Number 2 it's called sarcasm.

[spartan480bce]

@quig66 it also made no sense. Suggesting a international anthem for the whole world is not Communism, silly person.

[avalar87]

58 people have no ears

[spartan480bce]

@avalar87 they were cut off by the people who like this

:D

[ciyire]

58people got caught up with the music while trying to click like

[HermiOdleProduction5]

58 people have mental illness

[MasterofGalaxies4628]

58 people are white rapping idiots.

Also, for those of you wanting to jump straight to the choral finale, start at 7:19.

[alangley1999]

who ever dislikes this song is terrible this is the best music on earth and in heaven

[nocodenull]

I can hear god.

[tRiiG3rz]

Its funny how we can have such art in the world, however for it to be over shadowed by things like 'Jersey shore' such a shame.

[chuuxorz]

@tRiiG3rz theres merit in J S aswell imo

[chuuxorz]

Should remove the 20secs of silence at the start.

[witness124]

@chuuxorz Oh no. I think it gives you time to stop what you're doing and just sit there listening.

[kiwilaka]

It's a pity you can't download this version. I want to listen to it, even if there is no internet :P

[Vexed34]

@kiwilaka Well, I"m sure its available on a disc somewhere... Also zamzar.com lets you put in a web address and it will download and convert a youtube video for you.

[Marilyn1122]

Love love love!!!!!!! xoxoxooxo

[theMetalNerd91]

just out of curiosity, is this the same version from Immortal Beloved?

[bloodcumulus]

Sei Lá. Prefiro Faroeste Cabloco Fatão.

[bloodcumulus]

kraftwerk wins.

[aBeatlesfangirl]

I love Beethoven... I wish more people my age could enjoy it too, so far its just me and my best friend.

[charlesdcw1990]

This is real music! Nothing being made in the modern era can even compair with the ingenious intellect of Mozart and Beethoven! Though i enjoy modern rock classic rock pop etc there has always been a place in my heart for the greatest sounds of all time which is classical music.

[SpaceMonkeyInvasion]

Quite possibly, arguably even, the best piece of music ever written. Absolutely exceptional and perfectly timeless. One of a handful of accomplishments the entire species can be proud of without caveat, exception or "but" attached to it.

[Marineboy1935]

I feel so sad for the 57 people who are affected by deafness :(

[spartan480bce]

@Marineboy1935 im deaf, well partially, and i can definitely appreciate this song. Some may argue that because im deaf i can't know good music, but those people are morons who listen to rap, so they are in no position to criticize my music taste. Beethoven is the best composer ever in my opinion

[gatewayguitarduo]

Check out our instrumental duet of this immortal, beloved Beethoven classic!

[BroodofLoki]

this does not include the Ode to joy...

[spartan480bce]

@BroodofLoki its called ode to joy, and it is ode to joy

[almecor]

Only the spark in mankind's mind can ignite fire in music. -Ludwig Van Beethoven

This is indeed the best example of that spark that ignites a fire...

[Rada565]

Actually Beethoven never lost a hundred per cent of his hearing.

[Gladiator2155]

@Rada565 i did not know that, thank you very much :)

[TheSLK66]

Thumbs Up if you think god awaited for Beethoven to compose this heavenly composition

Dear Youtube,

This song has a dislike botton, please fix it.

[marcelomendonca1]

@MsKronos55 fuck you

[umroo2014]

@MsKronos55 as well as 58 people who should be eliminated. 

[Bloodwolf416]

Beethoven's ode to joy, indeed this man knew how to send goosebumps to the brains of men that suffer. For those men who conserve their tears and wear prosthetic smiles, its okay to cry witth a smile on your face when its for aesthetic reasons. Long live music. Peace.

[UngratefulLiving420]

Anyone know where to find an english translation of the lyrics?

[spartan480bce]

@UngratefulLiving420 just use google translate

[activedreamer]

His spirit brought him inspiration which he shared with us

[christhecreep]

i cried at 8:12

[ModernMassiah]

Thumbs up if you think 7:22 to 8:06 is the best part.

[spartan480bce]

@ModernMassiah i agree, it is a good part, but i my favorite is when the Germanic singing starts, so uplifting

[Reventon163]

beethoven is a hero!!!

[onceuponohio]

So Amazng! I would have loved to have met him!

[MetalTillIDie461]

as thejestermuse points out beethoven wasnt "really" deaf, 56 fuckers who watched this are though

[areyoumilkbie]

cool i can play this on my bass

[pirategalmakeup]

Perhaps one of my favourite pieces... Who is the musician performing this version?

[spartan480bce]

i need this on my MP3, would be so god damn awesome

[spartan480bce]

the singing is so uplifting and stirring

shame im english :(

4:14 to the end is the best for me, but the whole thing is amazing

[Witchking101]

@spartan480bce You don't necessarily have to understand the language to appreciate its beauty.

Never renounce your nationality :)

[spartan480bce]

@Witchking101 i dont understand the words they are saying but the sound of it just....fills me with joy (fiiting as this is ode to joy)

@mechax5 Lol, remembering NGE is just what brought me back to listen to this. When the last Angel is like, 'this is the greatest achievement of mankind.' I might just agree with him.

[thebeastfromsea2]

im a rock fan like iron maiden and ac/dc, but every once in a while i like to calm down with this

[Kakarot21591]

@thebeastfromsea2 Calm down to THIS? How? If anything, this is one of the most dynamic pieces of music ever written...

Good thing I brought a change of pants...
