  • I'm very proud I taught myself. Sought out to find who could tell me what I didn't find in the annuals of history!!! Here I am born and raised in the territory itself, yet not even mere mention of this true history ever found it's way into school texts!! Low and behold, this half Irish/Cherokee-Choctaw-German found herself a full blood brave!!! Thanks for all those who teach us, for the rest - here's a plan....it's time to get off the REZ and insist the governing numb-nuts issue a tribe own

  • Good grief!! I must also admit my avoiding spellcheck which is not necessary for me. But, you made me l. Thanks! Next grant proposal I submit may be just the same! Even the dissertation honor's reviewed, and on a total in truth matter's less to me, but established a higher standard? Ivy league typical scholars impress one another. Be original and throw in some "0ld English' here and again will confound and be found inappropriate to submit!!! I care not to write with my focus on the

  • I purposed misspell and academic use of sentence variables and proper symbols to incline you all to be absurd.

  • You all are missing all the true matters that define American indigenous people's. 1500 different languages baffled scholars above all else. The many tribes found by Lewis and Clark and beyond eastern shores before and after we're neither savage nor peacemakers. In a continent as large as this one what had yet evolved would have given time. To speak for any as if the whole were as every group or tribe, clan etc., who were in origin of a language, a custom and a way of life with regard to th

  • I first heard the song about 30 + years ago I love you did then and I still love it today it shows you how are government fucks the people

  • I'm WASP and I'm proud of that but, my wife is half Cherokee and Cajun" and I'm mightly PROUD of her! I'm so glad to see the tribes getting the upper hand on the "White Man" with the casino's "alcohol, tabacoo and firearams", serves us right, what goes around comes around!

  • @Onionsayswhat You were attacked by Iraq? You liberated Kuwait? You fought Vietnam to keep south free? Delusions. Iraq was for oil. Kuwait was for oil. Vietnam was to sell weapons, and drugs and get a large population hooked on drugs. Money therefore power. Please, educate yourself from sources other than Bill O'Reilly.

  • @RiverBirch1967 Would you say that the book, "Crazy Horse, The Strange Man of the Oglalas" is accurate? I had tears. And my heart and soul were filled with such pride and strength. I am not a native American. I'm not even in America. But that such a human existed. Gives me hope. And something to aspire to.

  • I for one am greatful to hear this.I grew up listening to it and am of native descent.If you have any Bob Annisley tapes or recordings from Touch The Fire,PLEASE UPLOAD A.S.A.P.

  • This song is filled with TRUTH!!!!! Not what we as Americans were taught in public schools. It makes me ashamed to be a white American, because my forefathers and Government treated the American Indian people so bad. At least I have the nerve to stand up say "I'm sorry" for the misery placed on these wonderful people!

  • Don't want to get too far off topic for some here, but..... "they" seem to still being doing all of this same crime to this very day, all for "that" countries particular resources.

    Talk about terrorism.......

  • this is a load of CRAP ...for starter they didn't lick anyone's feet ...you stupid imbecile ...whoever wrote this filthy song ..I would piss on their grave !

  • @914light It is YOU who are an imbecile, Loud Mouth, Small Mind!

  • Comment removed

  • @914light Oh dear! I am undone by your rapier wit, and superior spelling skills! It is fucktards like YOU who are a cancer on humanity!

    In honor of your words, I will give you a name in my Native Tsalagi Tongue. Your name is "Go Gv Adisai". It translates to "Running Crow". It describes a noisy bird, so full of shit, that it cannot fly!

    Oh Yea! By the way! The word is spelled "you're"

  • @saludahead Well, greetings and FUCK YOU too :) please feel free to use my words :) And in honor of you stealing my words / sentence ..I crown you "Musca domestica"..

    it is an Insect and is described as " That which eats it's own vomit and gets nourishment from feces", it can fly !

    AND btw YOUR wrong try looking up ..possessive determiners / possessive adjectives

    "your traveling" / you're traveling / you are traveling" or "your computer is / you're computer is" ..get the picture ?

  • @914light I believe what your small mind is trying to convey is the sentence, "You are a cancer on humanity.." That being the case then "you're", ( which is a contraction of "you are), would be the proper usage and spelling. So once again, the word is spelled "you're

    By the way! I'm, not a housefly. Anyone with understanding can tell that! Calling me one only proves your ignorance. Once again, good day!

  • @saludahead OK look you stupid fucker ...you attacked me first ...NOW FUCK OFF you stupid piece of shit ...I know you were educated in US which is why you haven't a clue of the language ... which is proven by your devotion to this stupid song ...NOW FUCK OFF and do not send me anymore message ..fucken retard !

  • @914light No! you do not get off that easily! I was indeed educated in the United States of America! I am also half Cherokee, which is the reason I fell what this song has to say!

    Now! It is obvious to me, Go Gv Adisia, that you are the one that has no understanding of the English language and it's usage! If you did, you would surely know how to spell the word "fucking" which you do not!

  • @saludahead ..I suppose christopher hitchens is one of your hero's too

  • @914light I've read some of his stuff, but there is much I don't agree with. You see, that's what makes America special! I might not agree with what he had to say, but many brave men and women stood ready to fight to the death to protect his right to say it when he was alive.

    We believe in everyone's right to live the way they chose. That's why we stood with Great Britain twice in WW1 and WW2. Sure we mane some mistakes in the past, and we will make some more. That's life

  • @saludahead ..you don't even know what an idiot you are !

  • @914light Idiot is a medical term which describes a person with the mental process of a seven year old child.

    What exactly is it that you have against The Native American People? Really, I'm just curious.

  • @914light If you live in the past, you cannot see the world with clear eyes. Would that the dead be not dead, but we cannot help those people now. What we CAN do is to keep their memories alive! To declare that these terrible things DID happen, and do all we can to keep them from happening again!

    Oh! We REALLY don't ask permission to grow hemp! Just like the Apache don't ask permission to grow peyote!

  • @saludahead ...we are all ...the past, present and the future ...and perhaps you should visit with what the FBI did a couple yrs back repeatedly to the crops of hemp on Pine Ridge, a so called "sovereign" land unto the Lakota, a separate nation supposedly ..they should NOT need to ask anyone permission for anything ! End of story ...take care !

  • @914light please go fuck your self dumbass its a figure of speach you fucking idiot

  • @bomacnchesse ...really ? you worthless piece of crap ...go make a video saying jews licked hilters boots !!

  • @914light ...jews licked hilters boots !! ...Try hitlers balls. I could not think of a more weak or pathetic race of people 6 million gutless jews happily march off to be gased, If Red Cloud had those numbers the world would be a better place today

    So you and your jews can fuck off.

  • @billionear ...are you really an ignorant fuck ..or just pretending ? Don't messages me again with your racist BS ..retard ...piss off

  • @914light...oh really bitch whats racist about Hitler gassing jews? Its what happened you fuck wit. Its history. I dont know of any other race dumb enough to be gassed without putting up a fight. 6 fucking million of them??? Hitlers army numbered 2 million in 1941 the jews out numbered them 3 to 1..?! Fucking weak cunts I'd piss on their grave and YOURS. ...Seig Heil.

  • @billionear ...well, you just proved you really are an ignoramus ....1/2 wit retard....I pity your filthy soul....of course a mindless boob like you believes everything they are told about history ..try reading a book idiot...and if you dick size is any indication FROM your intelligence ..only thing you will be pissing on is your own leg... something I,m sure, you're already doing...freak ! I also see you are not smart enough to understand PISS OFF...means don't send me messages

  • @914light haahaaahahahaa you really are a bitch. I bet its past your bedtime. Go to your princes and clean it up. And stay off daddys computer. Little slut.

  • this is the greatest song ever NDN PRIDE

    

  • Horrifying and depressing yes, but America WILL be brought to its' knees

    for its' arrogance and apathy. As Buffy St. Marie reminds us in "Now That

    the Buffalo's Gone"......... ' even when Germany fell to your hands, you left

    them your pride and you left them their land.........yet what have you done

    to these ones". John Trudell's "Ghostdance" is another, click on on the

    purple version. Crazy Horse was a mystic........

  • This is one of the coolest songs ever and tells a much more accurate story of the American Indian/white relationship than any history class I ever had. Of all people, they were treated worse than any other, and our treatment of many groups has not been good (Chinese, Irish, Blacks, etc). For those who dont know, JD still performs and has a campout each October near Carlysle lake in Illinois for his fans. See his website for details if you are interested in attending. reservations required.

  • @scienceteach2 you are correct, we as a group of devoted fans gather each year and old friends come together, at coles creek in carlyle il.for soch a time that we long for.its close to a family reunion without the members you didnt wanna see. we all share love laugh and remember the ones that have crossed over.and j.d. brings the music. know as september moon....long live the music of the genius...J.D BLACKFOOT

  • Why isn't there a "sad" for the reaction choices. This is gut-wrenching

    actually. OH - and get real, 2% of Tall Poe's estimation of psychopathic

    people is much, much higher. And in all actuality, EVIL has always been

    around: Man's inhumanity to man. Good can prevail with enough 'kurbs'

    i.e. temperance. PEACE!

  • @1550508  I beleive that this album was recorded in Aotearoa/New zealand , because of the nature of the lyrics or should i say history.the Artist is from the U.S.A please correct me if this is untrue. from . Waitaha Nation . TE Tai Poutini.

  • @chillahibbz Hi, this was recorded in New Zealand, all of the songs apart from Almost another day which was recorded in Columbus OH, it got album of the year in 1974 when recorded

  • to this day,.... not 1 treaty made with the native people of this county has been honored! Im ashamed of that! they deserved us to keep our word! when it comes down to it, thats all you come int this world with! if your word isnt any good, your just a piece of s**t!

  • JD,s not calling us anything!!!! he's just explaining how the white people looked at us Lakota people!!! Because we were the baddest fu#@in warrior tribe in all of north America and Canada,And we will be again !!!!!!!!!!

  • Someday great white father you will know my name...,

  • I liked this song back in the 70s but I just listened to the lyrics...navy without the fleet? you called this mad dog... savage? what..who called him mad dog? shit, we BOTH musta been on some good shit..sounds pretty silly now and JD could have came up with something better than calling Crazy Horse a mad dog..I must be getting old or my hearing has improved perhaps!

  • From 11:30 to13:40 sounds like a large shot of coke.

  • my the lord of u choice be with u grettings from the incas,aztecas an all the tribes of the world.

  • been listening to this song for a loooong time now thank you again riverbirch this song inspired me greatly

  • May the spirits run with crazy horse

  • Best song i have ever heard in my life im trying to learn it in sign launge

  • @MrNightly1 Really? In sign? For a youtube video?

  • Whats the Name, and who is the artist of the song?

  • @1MIDN1GHT jd blackfoot THE SONG OF CRAZY HORSE

  • An amazing song and story!

  • R.I.P. C.H. The Greatest Leader to grace our Earth. "Mother's-Teach your children well" Do not be confused by the cover of the book or the words within...

    It does not take many words to speak the truth.*

  • @SKYBLUE27able whats wrong with u?!?!?

  • this song is a masterpiece

  • i hate columbus. he murderd my people the tianos.

  • @mjbond2 Love the line about cornering yellow hair at the Bighorn and setting his ass free....Crazy Horse was one bad dude...so was Red Cloud

  • @djk28161 heck yeah.

  • @djk28161 yeah

  • Whether song, story, literature or speech, we all must remember, like it or not, in the evolution of life in any form, the more strong a species is, the more it overtakes the less strong. The means does not matter much, it is the story of life and death. The human being life is also subject to this as well, the means does not matter,but it too is the story of lifes evolution. Look inside yourself. Peace

  • @Babbbldot Only a dumb, devolved, ignorant species destroys it's own food, water, and air source and then claims that it is evolving.

  • I cried the day I melted my dad's Crazy Horse lp in the sun...love this song so much...soundtrack of my childhood

  • This song has it all. Its a rollercoaster ride of exhilaration and sadness. Thank you for posting. I lost my vinyl.

  • What 25 idiots didn't like this? Were they born pricks, or had they had a lot of practice at it? Were they just unclear on the concept? Maybe they were so blinded by their own guilt, they can't see the truth!

  • We looked at each other and I said Little Savage*

  • Okay let's see if I can put this in a more understandable form for you.

    I heard the word savage labeled upon someone. I was like I did that once. Okay, not that you care. Me and my friend were sitting in a restraut in Port Angeles, WA and we looked over at a table were a little kid sat licking the ketsup off his French Fries (Freedom Fries, Freedom Whore, Whore Fries, ect. ect. I'm really weird I know.) My friend I looked at each and Little Savage, which was a song by Yngwie Malmsteen. Good *!

  • If it helps anyone me and my friend named a kid licking french(whore)fries, "Little Savage" He cameback to solve all world problems by dying.

  • yeah yeah yeah.

  • thank you

  • ***SoEpic*** Just Great Poetry & GoodMusic!

    Loved this song since the seventeez!

  • The main reason as to why I couldn't finish the book was because I knew the ending!

  • It wasn't all tobacco alcohol and guns I hope, thank god for the revolutions that came after this event and changed the way business was handled in those days a little. They still go after the money and the power, but with some wisdom and the written words of so many (writing came from the north of Africa just in case some don't know), we are beginning to see through them, that's why it is harder to get into certain organisations I suppose.

  • I tried to read Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, but couldn't finish it because it horrified and depressed me. All I can say is that it is believed that 2% of the worlds population are psychopathic, they are hard to catch even today, but they are losing the war, but nothing can change the past. They will get their come upance soon just from a peaceful world. They hate the peace, they can't hide in it anymore. Time to put a kurb on ourselves me thinks.

  • @TallPoe I couldn't read it either! For the same reason. And the movie.

  • he recorded this album right here in new zealand i know someone that meet him got tapes of his music

  • @TallPoe The trick is to read it like you would any history book. It's very dry, and reads like that anyway. Pick the tribes you'd like to learn about the most as a preview. Don't take it emotionally, but think about the bullshit version of history that you were taught in school.

    Don't get depressed. Get angry. Use the anger to educate other people about how history's been completely "whitewashed", just like a lot of other topics. Continue to look outside of euro-centric philosophy. Peace.

  • I am so touched by this songTHE LEGEND OF CRAZY HORSE...I have not listened to this since I got clean. I have been clean for 27 years now and this song was played on a turn table too many times to be mentioned ,I thought my love for it was due to being loaded. but I gotta tell Ya, this means more to me now then it did back then. What an expression of what continues to happy in Our world .

  • fantastic,..,no more no less.,

  • Poetic Genius & Justice....been listening to this song since I was a baby.... JD had to be given this song by God himself

  • @robinunderwater God nope Crazyhorse spoke to him in a dream

  • in 1874, gold was discovred in the black hills of SD by Custers troops, the Sioux didn't want to surrender their lands, we tricked em into it. in 76 the army launched an attk with Custer & John gibbon. On june 25 custer spotten a indian camp of three tribes and he led an attk into the biggest camp ever assembled on the great plains along the greasy grass river. Crazy horse and sitting bull slaughtered them. Chief two moons later said, " it took less time that a hungry man to eat his dinner."

  • whats cool is i'm learning about the indian wars of the west in the 1800's in college american history now!

  • Classic! Though my original vinyl LP version of this song is titled "The Song Of Crazy Horse" (from the album of the same name 1974), and it clocks in @ 14 minutes 35 seconds. Thanks for the upload :)

  • @drprogensteinphp Cool! Was there any extra that we missed in this version?

  • I really like this song

  • I've owned two copies of The Song of Crazy Horse and wore them both out. Thanks for posting this. It says it all.

  • @Pitviper4Gunrights stupidty ? how is wut i say stupidty ?

  • great great song - i've known it since i was three, and it has a lot more meaning as an adult.

  • GREAT SONG!! The truth hurts! How ironic the story the history books told during my school days in the 60's and 70's. Thankfully, we've learned the REAL truth!! Nobody got fucked like the so-called "American Indians" who were the original inhabitants of North, Central, and South America. NOBODY!!!

  • Long ago.. 70s.. I had to special order this LP.. Had to wait 6 months to get it.. I still have it... and treasure it over everything else..

  • I haven't heard this for years . Thanks, Had the album, a long time ago, and on the other side also loved "flushed you from the toilets of my heart"

  • I am Native Amercian from North Carolina Reservation. White black red where apart of this earth. The Great White father knows our name. He can not imposes his taxes on us. And trust me he knows our name I love amercia where the only people that have amercian before anything. Were Amercian Indians

  • I am Native Amercian from North Carolina Reservation. White black red where apart of this earth. The Great White father knows our name. He can not imposes his taxes on us. And trust me he knows our name

  • I'm not saying what the white man did was right people but it seems that people forget that on reservations Native Americans can do what ever they want, reservations are seperate countries.

  • my father showed me this song and i fell in love

  • @dannywunning me too! my dad played this album for me all the time as a child, and i loved it.

  • Tells the story of the greatest American shame!! Thx for sharing!

  • Tells the story of the greatest American shame!!

  • Yeah, sure, our country is 'free'....Once you stop paying those bills you're not so free anymore.

    Natives understood what real freedom was.

  • this song has some of the longest lyrics i've ever heard ( look them up), great jam man, tx for posting

  • @rocker4u123 The lyrics are in the sidebar. :)

  • @RiverBirch1967 yeah i just looked at them, very nice. Thank you for posting this, i use to jam to this when i was younger and havn't been able to find the full version (i don't like to buy 10-15 dollar cd's though) lol, it would be nice to get the ultimate prophecy on 33 1/3 vinyl.

  • @nightwish1951 When I first joined YT they had a director's account that allowed more minutes. :) And yes, it's an older song and one that gives a person a great deal to think about.

  • A great song about a very sad part of american history. Yesterday the native Indians, today Irak... the "american way" turns the world into a shit-hole... if we let this happen! GEKKO And: Yes, this song doesn`t get old!

  • if 500 years ago the native americans had a society like the one we have today with laws.

    sorry white race all of you will be ilegals.....

  • I had this album. Thirty- five years ago. I wore it out. The message is still potent. Wish people would LISTEN.

  • this joint made me cry, real talk, so freaking powerful

  • The REAL America!!

  • thankyou hadn't heard this for years

  • thankyou hadn't heard this for years

  • I agree, we got columbus day, but we don't have Cochies or Sequoya day, Quanna Parker, Geronimo weekend or anything like that, and the blacks have MLK day and a few others, they have black month, spanish month, and months for all the others, but not for our kind, why is that? We served in the military throught this country's history, WWI & II, Vietnam, Korea and so on, and i guess we aint good enough to the Great White (black) Father.

  • @DevilfromOklahoma87 O'siyo Brother. Your heart feels as mine, but November is Native American Culture Month. Spread the word & make people aware that we are still here and always will be. Aho!

  • This song always gives me chills at the beginning and tears at the end. Yet the end makes me feel stronger. My father played this through out my childhood, and it is ingrained in my soul. Thrilled to have found it,as I can't copy from my dad's album. The Indians were so mistreated by us, may they forgive us.

  • North Island New Zealander here, not as funky as the south islanders I know but hey.

    This song/memory (so much more than just a song) is a great thing, so poetic and eloquent, it has moved me since I first heard it back in the 80's! Thanks for posting @RiverBirch1967 it deserves all the listens it gets :)

  • Getting rid of columbus day would be a good start giving Indigenous people the respect they so long deserved! You can't claim you discover a country that's already inhabited !

  • @blackhawk247 Absolutely. You cannot inhabit and "uninhabited" country which is already inhabited.

  • @blackhawk247 Let's make Columbus Day National Opposite Day.

  • @blackhawk247 i agree with this 100%, i been saying this ever since i was taught history,i had a problem with this in history.KICKAPOO4LIFE

  • seen this performed live in st louis mo......

  • @alvin01101  You lucky duck you!

  • Awesome !!!!

    Thanks for posting the words!

  • @marshmallow2007 You are very welcome (big smile).

  • ive listened to this song at least 30 times and it never gets old,honor crazy horse a brave warrior who always tried to do what was best for his people even against such a overwhelming foe.

  • @magnalunatic  Agreed!!!!

  • i hated doing this unit in history:( I am sick be what they did&are doing it seemed lik i was the only one that saw what was wrong. The whites were and still are the savages.

  • Thanks for posting this. It would be great to have the whole "Ultimate Prophecy" on you tube, so far it is only pieces.

  • One of the saddest albums made, what a tribute to a great Warrior. Well done JD Blackfoot. This album was recorded in Auckland NZ as it was probably too controversial to be recorded in the States in the early 70s. Same thing happened in NZ to the Natives.
