I have the original Broadway soundtrack and although I adore Betty in this, I have to say I prefer the Broadway rendition of this song as a whole. It's more powerful.
@Elax48@follerbr Having been in the Army myself this is done so soldiers learn about their gas masks and to trust them. It also teaches them how to stay cool in this type of situation, Which trust when I say is not an easy thing to do The gas normally used is called CS gas or simply tear gas. Hope this helps
@Elax48 the building is filled with CS gas, aka tear gas. You are ordered to remove your mask and yell name rank and serial number, of course that gives you a good whiff of the stuff as it burns your eyes out and irritates the crap outa your respiratory tract. CS had a peppery smell/taste to it, the burning was immediate and it also made your exposed skin burn. It permeated clothing and equipment as well. You never built up resistance to it, the exposure was for you to experience what it does.
@Elax48 unless i'm mistaken military personnel during training have to stay in a chamber like that filled with gas, dunno what kind of gas, probably tear gas, to build up resistance i guess.
@follerbr That's pretty much correct. They use CS, or tear gas. It's to drive home the finer points of using a gas mask, and to give the trainee's confidence in using their gas masks. They pull them off during the gas chamber exercise to show them that not doing this, that, or the other when exposed to poison gas will make you sick.
Best song from the film, Hair. I prefer the Broadway version. In the Broadway version the tribe focuses on finding peace and beauty while tripping. In the film, the focus is on the insanity of training for a war that never should have happened. I wish I had the means to fly to New York and see the play. I wish ...
a very horrible movie. No respect for Right and Wrong in the eyes of God. Maybe they forgot about the alliance between Hitler and Stalin? Maybe they didnt know of the 100's of millions butchered by communist agression?? Maybe if Johnson hadnt taken such a hard stance against Communism we would be anniliated as a people? Dont think it cant happen. Men die in wars, Stand up like men and fight against evil giving your own life like men of God. Courage, Morals, Self-Sacrifice.
i actually think it is a combination of both..drug experience and anti-war expression. No one is wrong...love this song and the feeling through it. Hair is the Best!!! Movie and Broadway!!!
i really don't get what's wrong with expressing the experience of drugs or drug use through music. i don't think that's a reason to have a problem with a song.
@cupcake597 I think what they meant was that they movie didn't really show that that was what the song is talking about since it has the military training montage with it.
It´s has been 44 years since human kind firsth walked in space. and et we´re still falling in the same old mistakes, which atempt against life itself.
I wanted to find out too, because the bassist is killing in all parts of movie! For every serious jazz fusion, or any other modern jazz bass player hair is marked as "must see". The bass player name is Wilbur Bascomb.
on the US President subject.. I said it at one of Stone Gossard's (Pearl Jam) videos.. my solution for the next US elections is... Stone Gossard for President & Eddie Vedder his right hand.. and I also asked if US President can still play in the band?!? if NOT then forget the elections & long live Pearl Jam!! AMEN
Milos Forman makes me so proud to be Czech!!!!!!!! and so irritating that after the Vietnam experince, the US again elected presidents who took the country to war.. thsi has to end.. will it ever? the Pigs are in power & statism is dead or alive? David Icke has some amazing ideas on that subject, love his work.. mindblowing & very true.. Hair is a sad story and at the same time story of love and hope.. thanks for posting this amazing video!!
they used to I don't know if they still do. it used to be that if you were under torture you were only allowed to reveal ur name serial # or last four digits of ur social security # and ur rank.
If this is about what they are doing at 3:04, they are going thru the Gas Chamber. You go through first with your mask on..then they make you take your mask off and usually state your name, rank (and it used to be serial number too). They do that so that you can breath it in..and know what it's like..so when they say GAS!! you don't dilly-dally in putting your MOP Gear on. also...so that you'll Trust your Mop suit. I may have went overboard on the explanation..so my bad. LOL
I said that because he actually performed this song on one of his albums in the early 70's....in fact it's on youtube. However, I did find out tha the did not write the song.
She is very cute, but the voice belongs to Betty Buckley, who played the gym teacher in "Carrie," Abby in "Eight is Enough," and Grizabella in "Cats" .
Had to sing this song as Woof a couple of years ago at my former school here in Berlin. Sure brings back memories and I haven't forgotten one line in all these years. Strange! Maybe I've got the soul of a hippie in me. Already got the long hair.
Sight, in our school, we never had any musicals.. And if I had said anything about a hippie musical they would have stoned me to my death. But great, it's a shame there isn't that many long haired guys out there. :)
No idea why. An online chinese-english translator translates: "Thanks! Which friend can tell me where to be possible to buy this movie? I have looked for the good long time.Thanks, thanks! Please very much help! ~"
Es lamentable que una buena película como está haya sufrido las mutilaciones de las que fue objeto por parte de la compañía productora. Es canción en especial fue removida por Milos Forman en una secuencia que nada tiene que ver con la obra original en que se basa, pero eso no es lo malo, sino que en el minuto 2:30 se corta toda una estrofa del tema, misma que según se sabe se grabó (pues aparece completa en el soundtrack del filme) pero por su longitud fue editada.
