[OldSkoolThrasher666]

tom is awesome....the world needs rage against the machine...\m/...unfortunately this land was sold and stolen a long time ago...either 1865, 1913, 1933 or 1963...depending on who you ask

[MidnightMadnessRocks]

I would like to have your video on my music video TV show Midnight Madness TV please contact me for details?

[101ravenwing]

Austin Occupiers are being kicked out as I speak...stand your ground so we can take our country back!

[NiceGuyCody]

@101ravenwing

Good fuckin' riddance.

[GratefulVince]

This is the great American anthem - not "God Bless America"!

[danielturbo94]

learned this song in elementary school now my favorite guitarist is performing it

[eokeuz]

Ron Paul 2012

[cacilata]

That guitar kills fascists!

[BobDawg173]

@cacilata He says that in one of his songs lol

[boondocksaintmurphy]

For all of you assholes talking shit about Tom: I saw him on the Justice Tour a few years back. The tickets were $10. The T-shirts were $10. The CDs were $10. And every motherfucking dime of that went to a local charity who fights for a living wage. So fuck off with your assumptions about what Tom cares about most. I assure you that it's the People.

[BlotterPapers]

I love how people try to divide us. "Morello is part of the 1%" Bullshit I don't see him grasping his money tight, I don't see him enacting policy to repress the people and grow his wealth. What I do see is him trying to wake people up and being payed to do exactly what he loves to do.

[Shadowsafter]

@BlotterPapers And he then pays out most (not all but most) of his earnings to urban restoration projects and a mexican guerilla faction that is fighting to stop the US-backed government from grinding mexican culture out in exchange for whitey-boy's money. If Morello represented the 1% nobody would be complaining.

[tecno57]

It will never change. Dip-shits dumb asswipes will all ways be Dip-shits asswipes. Morello made his money off his TALENT. People were not forced to go see him. He did NOT make his money by kicking people out of there homes. So all you asswipes who want to just stir up the shit with your bullshit, go fuck yourself.

[BigShotNutter]

...And then he flew back to his car collection paid for with money made by Sony and Guitar Hero where he called Castro and Chavez. Meanwhile, the bankers up in the windows were so moved they threw themselves out of them and perished. Wake up indeed....I understand the hate of the thievery, the weapons contracts, etc. but to think that a bunch of pretentious, uneducated people camping out is going to change anything is a naivete and nothing but. They're laughing at you, and Morello is the 1%...

[BobDawg173]

@BigShotNutter Idiot... You assume because he has fame he is rich. Don't make assumptions idiot. He goes to these protests unpaid. He wrote a whole album dedicated to the union workers and donated money to their orgainzation. And because he was in guitar hero doesn't make him rich. He made whatever money he got off of his talent and hard work, yet he still fights for the common man. He reinvented the guitar as an instrument. He dedicates so much time to these events.

[NiceGuyCody]

@BobDawg173

He has a net worth of something like $40 million. You're very much the misinformed idiot here. And fighting for the dogmatic system of collectivist-totalitarianism that killed 100 million human beings in the past century is not "fightiing for the common man".



[BobDawg173]

@NiceGuyCody what?

[Shadowsafter]

@NiceGuyCody Wait, i'm struggling to comprehend where you went there... are you saying he's a communist? I fucking hate these strawman, knee-jerk reactionary prickhole arguments that someone who thinks that there shouldn't be people buying personal jets and paying off senators while tilting elections and consolidating business is immediately a stalinist lenin-blowing commie. FUCK. WELL.OFF. BRAINDEAD!

[NiceGuyCody]

@Shadowsafter

Tom Morello IS a communist, you withless fucking moron., He's never made a secret of it, and like any totalitarianism-obsessed fanatic he's proud of it. He espouses the oppressive dogma of Marx at every chance, deniens communist genocide wholesale and practically worships mass murderers like Mao and Che Guevara.

I know this is asking a lot from a Rage For The Machine fan, but do your fucking homework, retard. Then jump in front of a bus.

[Shadowsafter]

@NiceGuyCody Oh wait I just read another Braindead part of your comment, show me a single sentance of Das Kapital (That's Marx's book, as i'm sure you WEREN'T aware.) that could be called "oppressive dogma". The theory of communism was Marx's ultimate solution to the problem of oppressive ruling classes by neutralising the sources of their power, it was meant to work in conjunction with democracy.

[ZagaZiga08]

OCCUPY BRENTWOOD, THE HOLLYWOOD HILLS! and all the other posh places where like-minded hypocrites dwell, e.g., Tom Morello, his corporate exec wife, their luxury cars and nannies...This is precisely why America et al is jacked up these days--we are under the illusion that we can have it ALL. Recognize how YOUR lifestyle is feeding into the problem and shift accordingly. Besides punishing white collar criminals, a massive living standard sweep of rich nations is a must. and i am def not commie

[Dlanorepmart]

All day,

All week,

Occupy Wall Street!!!!

[ChaosDescending]

Hey, hard to argue with facts, when you know 'em. xkcd.com/980/huge/#x=-5312&y=-­7096&z=5

[barbaranne100]

how come i cannot post this to mypage...

[SGde3a]

Nice way to inspire violence. Mindless too because the fed bank is made out of granite afaik.

Bankers will just laugh. "oh thats a catchy tune" No telling Morello is part of the 1% either. He doesnt trust his own audience, and he encourages the raised fist logo/movement which is funded by american gov. See /watch?v=4bhxxk3ZdaI

[MexicayotlTeachings]

Morello is a MILLIONAIRE and part of the 1%

[troyik]

@MexicayotlTeachings : you're a communist? Some people deserve their wealth. 1% are corrupt rich people, multinational corporations etc ....

[zegratman]

Excellent piece of words against global finance and world wide economy crimes. That's never easy to express yourself in the street, and Tom is doing it for us, thanks to him.

[pinkfloyd19952000]

Nice

[2011nomorelies]

Tom and RATM still KEEP IT REAL. Most 'pop-stars' these days are a bunch off pampered morons with FUCK ALL TO SAY. Indeed, as the GREAT John Lydon said to all the 'music-industry-suits' and the 'beautiful-people' at his 2011 MOJO 'Acceptance Award' (WTF!) speech... ...WHY THE FUCK HAVE YOU LET ACTORS TAKE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!

Go to MOJO's site to see the 'speech' I just mentioned + there's loads more of on my you tube channel! Tell it like it is and give 'em 'both barrels' boys!!!!!!!!!!!

[psykedout]

awesome song, never heard the entire version before!

[Poyer1023]

This is badass! WOOOOOOOOOOO TOM!!!!

[ThiagoDescortes]

Mr. Morello: where is his consistency: you protest for greater democracy in their country, but supports the dictatorship of the Castro brothers in Cuba. A regime that kill anarchists, gays and dissidents. Where is your consistency?

[irie1tes]

List land was stolen for you and me

[Zerockandmetal]

Tom Morello is one of great musician of this century

[aimeefausser]

Love it. Keep up the occupation!

[joshythehipster]

LOVE IT! Absolutely love it. There's a deep sense of awesome about the whole occupy events =)

[seet00]

Keep up the good work Tom!

[ZaphodX420]

You sir, no matter what Bill O'Reilly may say, are a Patriot in my eyes.

[mylittleparrot]

THIS is the real, true-red-blooded version of Woody Guthrie's defiant song that *I* learned. Not the sissified camp song.  You go, Tom Morello.

[JTremblay007]

"This land is your land, this land is my land" and it's time to take back what is rightfully ours!

[fuckyouasshole69]

JUMP THE FUCK UP WHEN THE NIGHTWATCHMAN SEZ THE WORD!

[AdamElseify]

/watch?v=-E60Cg8bswM Rage fans and OCCUPY wall street/LA people please like this video, Zack De La Rocha gave a great speech predicting this rebellion coming!!!

[camoismyfavcolur]

(Tom) ".....and i would also smoke pot till my brains ooze out my ears too......but that's just me.."

[Dave03120]

Tom Morello is simply amazing, both as a musician and a human being.

[xZBATCHx]

What a powerful song, I wish I could have been there. Tom has so many great followers. Fists raised high!

[dtcomix]

As a fellow Wobbly and an organizer for the Occupy St. Augustine, Florida movement, I have to thank you dearly for your music and support. Workers of the World Unite! We are the 99%!

[DJPanicdc]

Thank you Tom for bringing back not only the original lyrics but the original spirit of this song

[folio1701]

Damn, the Nightwatchmen really is everywhere!

[0ver18Hannah]

Tom starts singing, fists go up.

[lilylowsky]

Tom Morello is a genius, 'Nuf said

[louisthekingsnake]

Tom Morello covering Woody Guthrie is the perfect combination. When I attended the first General Assembly of #OccupyIowa last Saturday I had this song in my head. Perfect. #OccupyTogether

[rasjesta420]

WEEEEEEEE ARRRRREEEEEEE THHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEE POOOOOWWWWEEEERRRRR!!!

[hondaraLa]

Occupy Wall Street is a long time coming, and the people in power are starting to take notice. It's starting to sound (street chatter) like the 60's again, and I'm proud of Tom Morello - we need more publicity (I've posting the sh*t out of facebook and putting up links...it's time for people to care again - AND TAKE THE POWER BACK!!!

[Ryan99567]

Something to think about when you are out on the line!

[lukehill82]

Nice way to begin a Wednesday morning, watching Mr. Morello rocking the shit out of LA

[nick4man3]

Occupy Wall Street is the largest protest in recent American history. It is so good to see that is succeeding on a national level in less than a month. This country is finally working together in solidarity to achieve a common goal.

...And of course you know Tom will be on the front lines.

We are the 99%!

[SwearingMonster]

The Nightwatchman is a living legend!

[UtterlyTragick]

Never thought I'd hear this song again....preschool memories coming back.

[jasonthemankiller]

Down with Zionism and its evil global bankers .

[doctordude]

[koneye]

clean your lens god damn it

[MrKillafoo6]

is it just me, or does it look like there's little black sperm in the center of the screen?

[MetalTomX]

I have listened to RATM songs playing over and over in my head EVERY DAY of #OccupyWallStreet!!! Your a HERO Tom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Textynn]

RAGE ROCKS. YEAHHHHHH

[JDGless]

There is nothing wrong with working hard, making money, and spending it on whatever you wish. However, there is something wrong with stealing the tax payers money by purchasing congressmen with corporate dollars! Tom Morello made it in the music industry, one of the toughest things to do. Give Tom credit for his hard work and using his fame to speak out against Wall Street and their corporate whores which have become our congress. We would not be watching this video if John Smith made it.

[FarmboyRecords]

why dont this tom morello give ALL his wealth away to feed the poor?

oh wait cuz hes a hypocrite.

[DRUCO316]

@FarmboyRecords you 1st 

[FarmboyRecords]

@DRUCO316

umm no.... i happen to believe I own the wealth produced by my labor. I will keep my wealth and be honest about where I stand.

[drizztf88]

@FarmboyRecords

Actually you don't own the wealth produced by your labor, that is actually what Tom and a lot of us believe in.

You own a small portion of the wealth produced by your labor(what job do you do anyway?), the portion your employer decides you are to be given.

So, yeah, invalid argument there.

[FarmboyRecords]

@drizztf88

when I say I own the wealth produced by my labor, I am not talking about what I do in the industry. I am talking about the WAGE I receive from that job. That is mine to keep. I earned it, not you.

[drizztf88]

@FarmboyRecords

Ok, what *I*'m saying is that people should be entitled to the full product of their labour, and not a small portion of it, as is the case with capitalism.

[FarmboyRecords]

@drizztf88

They are. Well they would be if income taxes wasn't so high. But that is not the fault of the employer its the fault of the government.

The employee is free to ask for a higher wage, move to a different company, or start his own business. The only thing holding him back is his apathy.

Here's a thought, instead of being envious of rich people, and trying to bring them down to you level. Why not gimmick what they do, and rise up to theirs.

[drizztf88]

@FarmboyRecords

Also your arguments are pretty funny. According to your logic:

1)If you are poor and want socialism you are envious

2)If you are rich and want socialism you are a hypocrite

Something is terribly wrong with that logic. Do the words compassion, solidarity, justice,altruism mea anything to you.

And PLEASE, don't tell me about charity again, what charity accomplises may be importantin some cases, but it is very,very little.

[FarmboyRecords]

@drizztf88

dont talk to me about charity.... we could compare how much percentage of our earnings we each donated last year, and I am sure that I gave more then you. Please don't go there.

Socialism is for the people not the socialist.

If Mr. Tom Morello loved socialism so much....why not give away everything above $200K of his earnings each year. He doesn't need it.

But he expects me to pay more in taxes.

[drizztf88]

@FarmboyRecords

He expects the rich, like himself, to pay more taxes. That makes him a hypocrite how?

But anyway that is not socialism, that is just a fairer tax system.

What I said about charity is that, although important, it is a drop in the ocean. And he has given a lot to charity, you are not he one who will dictate how much he gives,cmon. And how much he gives is irrelevat, what matters is that he advocates against his personal interests, that makes him the opposite of hypocrite.

[umiloyayi]

@FarmboyRecords What you said is not socialism, but just a mere Utopia.

[glitchnoise]

Audioslave.

[Andythedude]

@kingcherub11 i know what youre saying, but hes doing it to put across a message not to sing lol. RATM always man, want to see them so bad again!!!

[CurrencyENT]

He may have made a lot of money during his lifetime, but he also donates a lot to charities and supports many activist groups. He doesn't live like a "rockstar", he lives like your average blue collar worker would. He didn't do it for the money and fame, he did it to share a message and for his love of music. Respect the man

[tangldmojo]

@CurrencyENT He's a Wobbly. Good enough for me.

[xSlaynexVishusx]

@CurrencyENT There is a great interview in Rolling Stone Magazine about Tom. Its worht the read. He is a very great person.

[richardellipsis]

this is balls. stop singing hobo anthems and get back to the chunky riffs son!

[mortalweedbath666]

WE NEED A GLOBAL TOUR OF RATM please you cant break up without coming in Montreal ... we love you

[Stefandurrr]

@mortalweedbath666 I once came in Montreal... barely remember that night.

[DestroyAndDominate34]

Love this <3
