Queen - Gimme The Prize (Kurgan's Theme) (Lyrics)

[PS3xMedia]

apparently freddie hated this song, i dont know how

its dope

[jmalott96]

Why is "caroline munro's big breast" one of the recommended videos? Am i in THAT part of youtube again?

[butnevermind]

I love Freddie's energy in this song!



[TheMinerva82]

I've never heard such power and pitch on Freddie's vocal on any queen song, please correct me if I missed any!! It's unbelievable

[TheMinerva82]

@TheMinerva82 And what on earth is Brian doing with his guitar>!!! must be amongst heaviest track ever if not it. He just kicks everyone else's ass in this track, maybe only Hendrix is with him?

[KaltnerD]

uh, that intro... brrr great!

[Borderus]

Highlander was good enough, but throw Queen in there and OMG

[mattaeart]

must be very famous this bieber if everyone compares him with so fucking geniouses

[MrNonsensicle]

A small message to Justin Bieber from the best band in the world: 2:00.

[EXTRATONE1000BPM]

THIS IS SO EPIC.....

[nsxbanzai]

Love 3:06 guitar part!

[konstantinthegreat88]

Freddie.The One!

[WolfXll]

I loved when The Kurgan toke the car with the old granny inside,lol.... LMAO xD

[TerryAfrica]

EPIC!!!!! Highlander was awesome

[TheLeeb1972]

A head which at this time has no name! "I know his name" fantastic group thank you for so many good times.So glad got I to see the four of you at Leeds in 82 and Newcastle in 86.XXXXX

[sectionpink1]

Freddie's vocal is out of this fucking world epic!!!

[dirufanboy1971]

Queen at their metal awesomness BEST. Holy FUCK when they wanted to rock out they were head and shoulders above a lot of the 80s Hair bands.....fucking EPIC.

I said this at the Princes of the Universe page but I'm gonna say it again - WE MISS YOU FREDDIE!!!! :(

[jeffman52001]

Queen rocks!!!! One of the awesome songs by Queen, love"Highlander", awesome movie, love the TV series "Highlander: The Series". "Gimme the Prize" rocks!!, the ending hearing Connor MacLeod saying "There Can Be Only One", way too cool.

[mrfenderbenderman]

Freddie sounds as if he's about to cough up blood he's pushing his voice that much and it sounds incredible.

[BlackWolflord]

"There's no escape from my authority" Eric Cartman ?

[simonacdcwright1]

i want the love button, just cant find it.

[drjudaskillcounts]

0:40 shit does not get more epic

[devildogg061]

I dedicate this song to the newly crowned Rugby World Champions the New Zealand All Blacks!!! There can be only one!!!

[amanda2109114]

The sexy thing about Brian is that he's the one who said "I know his name!" And "Now you die" And " I have something to say it's better to burn out then to fade away" Oh and" THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!" And who could forget the rockin solo!?

BRI-AN! BRI-AN! BRI-AN! Go BRIAN!

[1944fallschirmjager]

@amanda2109114 no the person who says them is clancy brown in the film highlander. this was made for the film and is know as kurgans theme :) 

[amanda2109114]

@1944fallschirmjager

Really? Cause for one- iv'e never seen the movie, and second- sence he's the one who made the song, I thought he'd have the honer to do that! And I know his voice. I thought he'd be using computers to make his voice like that.

[simonacdcwright1]

@amanda2109114 how come uve never seen highlander. cant believe that, u dont know wat uve missed out on m8. bloody gr8 film, dont listen to the idiots who say its shit, they obviously have no taste in films. u shuld watch it. its an all blown action film. bloody gr8. all the queen songs under the sun in it.

[amanda2109114]

@simonacdcwright1 Sorry, but i wasn't born yet. . . I have HEARD of it, but never seen it. BUT I WOULD LOVE TO!!!! (^)O(^)

[simonacdcwright1]

@amanda2109114 if u go on amazon quickly u can get the dvd for 0.01 plus 1.26 postage if u live in england, butcos the government have disliked the idea of cheap things they r stopping it on april 1st 2012. if we didnt have any politicians the world would be a damn better ploace. hopefully david cameron leaves sooon. no one likes him.

[amanda2109114]

@simonacdcwright1 Thank you, Friend. I don't live in London. I live in the USA. Is there another way? Is it like. . .Online so I can see it for free?

[Maniakabg]

@amanda2109114 he's not the one who said it. It was Kurgan.The sound is taken from the movie Highlander

[knight30002008]

Connord and Ramirez dislike this song.

[icantstopchewinggum]

@r3gr3ssor really he said that? where'd u see it? that just surprises me cuz queen didnt really want to do his "death on 2 legs" at first cuz they thought the words and stuff were too violent and mean- but they did it cuz freddie wanted to.

[doctorHOUSE]

I wish Queen made a few more like this!

[metrotek5]

Brian May kicks ass ... period

[amanda2109114]

@metrotek5 Thats why he'll always be the best!

[nutkick100]

0:00 Hey look the good part started.4:35 Now the shitty part just started

[JRHartly1984]

This makes me want to cut off somebody's fucking head. Awesome!!!!!

[elijahthesamurai]

The solo is amazing in the song...that whole Scottish sound ...beyond words

[nutkick100]

''Well my cut has improved your voice''One of my favorite lines from this film ever

[RojiraProductions]

Even though the remake project for Highlander is still ongoing, there have been a few hiccups on the way - may the power of this song stop the project completely and forever!

There can be only one!

[breadnchocolate]

queen+ highlander = the best damn theme tunes EVER.... <3

[elijahthesamurai]

@breadnchocolate For real! There's no soundtrack that i can think of that totally sticks out equal w/the film like the soundtrack by Queen for Highander

[KnightOneDark]

Oh, Highlander sequels, how you hurt me.

[MooseyFate100]

Anyone, ANYONE, who says Freddie can't sing metal. Listen to this song. Twice.

[Killenwolf]

@r3gr3ssor stop ranting freak show this song is epic and you are a douchenozzle

[ZombieGorgasm]

@Killenwolf your a dumbshit, or you just miss read what r3gr3ssor had written

[tekkenizam]

@r3gr3ssor nicely said my friend, well done ;)

[ben5leto]

Why did Freddie and John care if this song was too heavy? It's kickass and shows how soft Queen can be and how dangerous they can become later.

[nemumpouconormal]

Highlander is just awesome! And Queen reminds me my youth.

[brokenwingsy2k]

Eeooaaarrrr?!?!?!?! No no no its "RRRaaaaaarrrrrggghhh!!!"

[unisolgr89]

freddy mercury forever!!!!

[skekze]

Kurgan, baddest motherfucker of all time. When I get a smartphone, my ringtone will be that one bit that sounds like bagpipe. Why oh why, didn't Queen put that bit of New York, New York remake as a full song I don't know. That was beauty.

[sineadc1973]

the 2 dislikes: let me squeeze them in my hands

[joeleffler]

IIs the guitar/bass line suppose to sound like princes Of the universe?

[iCoreyJames]

''I know his name''

-Kurgan puts in the tape-

GIMME THE PRIZE!

[OldschoolVgamer]

The 2 dumbfucks who thumbed this down don't MY name!

[jws1272]

@OldschoolVgamer 2 people got their heads taken by Kurgan!!!

[2002tiif]

Queen kicks ass!

[LittleMissBrendy]

I'm a dude, and i think this is freaking sexy

[TKA001]

Almost all of the villains of the Highlander sequels seem to be knock-offs of the Kurgan in some way. All of them (except maybe Jacob Kell) use a really big-ass sword, dress very outlandishly (Kell again being a minor case, save for his crucifix-shoes), and have a tendency for extremely hammy acting and wise-cracking (the Guardian from The Source being the worst offender).

[neosoc]

ZEIST!!!!!

[starkiller20293]

@neosoc Die....

[neosoc]

@starkiller20293 General Katana could own the Kurgan without even breaking a sweat!

[starkiller20293]

@neosoc You're kidding right? Please tell me you're kidding.

[neosoc]

@starkiller20293 Man, John C. McGinley could own his ass, and not even have to tag-team WITH General Katana.

What the hell do you think, dude? Of course, I'm fucking kidding! Gullible...

[starkiller20293]

@neosoc I'm not gullible. Hell there are people who say that 2 and endgame and The Source were some of the best Highlander ever got. I wish I was kidding XD.

[Hauntedscotland]

So - let me get this straight - even things they themselves find shite are fucking fantastic...?!! ;-) tells you a thing or two about the level of quality and genius on which they stand...!

unreachable for anyone else.

[Hauntedscotland]

goodness me - they have metallica for breakfast!!!!!!

and THIS is what is so unbelievable about Queen: you have Bohemian Rhapsody, you have 1920's Vaudeville in their music, you have Country, you have lullabies, you have it ALL, you name it and they DID it and to perfection, every single thing! And now THIS - I am lost for words. No band is like queen, seriously NONE. Other bands may be good at ONE thing more or less, but Queen - this is perfection on all levels.

[Mercenary78]

Macleod...

[bravealiens]

they never should have made sequels,just the original!!!

[firestarter199515]

2 people don't want a prize. Poor buggers

[DrMaybrianna]

EPIC!

[KoRnhead12]

This is a thousand times heavier than all those so called glam 'metal' bands of the time

[jasonite]

Great vocal!

[gazzagamer]

ENGLAND VS THE WORLD ! AND THE WINNER IS THE QUEEN HAHA =HAHA !!!

[joakkko95]

2:00 NOW YOU DIE!

Subliminal message dedicated to Justin Biber >:D

[ZeroAzrael614]

I always thought he said, " I have Something to Say: It's better to burn in hell, than to fade away." ... guess I was wrong?

[hyppo232]

@ZeroAzrael614 Nope, you though well, he says it indeed !!

[luthorn]

i love this song

[Omnimax69]

Kurgan>David Hasselhoff ??

[Vegabond13]

It's written as McLeod and MacLeod in different places o.O so even the people who made the movie don't know how to spell it =D

[starkiller20293]

@Vegabond13 It's Macleod, it's spelled like that on Connor's sword when he was the Highlander.

[2wingo]

@Vegabond13 Both are real names. "Mc" is Irish, "Mac" is Scottish.

[evilotto91]

Kurgan>Michael Ironside

[mattiathekaiju]

Connor McLoud voted this 2 times.

[TearisShatteredMoon]

MY SONG TONIGHT!!!! my success is in reach and when you feel your dreams coming true and your power growing this song IS PERFECT to celebrate to!

[FlyingFocs]

Things I've learned from this song

Guitar to the tune of bagpipes=Surprisingly badass

[ytcomposer]

OMG --> Great Highland Bagpipe imitation 2:36

Even the drone and the layered octaves with the Mixolydian mode...

[liviq]

i just love what Freddie could do with his voice, he could be gentle, touching, urging, playful, sad and hurting, loud and angry and also arrogant...everything was so convincing

[tdrider2008]

This movie for won an academy award, for what you ask, greatest movie ever

[LordAkira]

[PILKK90]

[GooGajoob224]

How in the hell do you talk the next day, when you give out so much sheer energy of your voice, like Freddie did here? I love Queen, absolutely love them!

[ICantBelieveItsA23]

@GooGajoob224 I am RIGHT with you, GooGajoob224!

[DrunkenPoetic]

There can be only one...Freddie Mercury.

Shame there couldn't be two, but two Freddies in the same Universe at the same time would cause God's head to explode out of sheer awsomeness.

[Cpt50Caliber]

@DrunkenPoetic

Freddy Mercury = more awesome then Chuck Norris

[DeepFrozenSalmon]

@Cpt50Caliber

Freddy Mercury = more awesome than anyone in this world

High;ander + Queen = Instant cinematic HISTORY!!!!

[flossyleech1]

@Nukillis you know you just referenced def leppard

[EldestSauce]

@flossyleech1 uh no... it was originally in a neil young song

[flossyleech1]

@EldestSauce as far as i know it comes from Pyromania a.k.a. Rock of Ages

[flossyleech1]

@flossyleech1 sorry 'bout the confusion i haven't listend to neil young for years.

[EldestSauce]

@flossyleech1 Def Leppard stole it from a shirt that stole it from Hey, Hey, My, My from 1979

[luthorn]

@Nukillis A fucking men

[Sonichero151]

@Nukillis WHY DID THE SEQUELS HAVE TO KEEP GOING DOWN THE LADDER OF ASS-SUCKING

[PrinceOfTheInferno]

@Sonichero151 *Sighs*Cause there can be only one*Tosses a copy of The source into a bon-fire*-.-

[mothafraker]

Awesome song from an awesome soundtrack to an awesome movie!Preformed by an awesome band!

[MrEatbrainz]

[Stauderhorse]

Just when I think Queen can't get any more frigging awesome, they outdo themselves.

[shaneinkster]

1986

[niccusAdrano]

bellissima

[demonicnature]

I love this song oh yeah

shame queen didn't like it and yes its true they say about it on the making of the album i think if i remember correctly they said it was too heavy for them but to me its an awesome song and proud to have it in my collection rock on freddie your the best

[madmanjess]

4:17 you didnt add in "there can be only one"

[shaneinkster]

he did

[marcalmondgay]

i like that rope-snapping sound around 2:06 :D

[4w4k3n]

rope ?? :P lol

its swords swinging

[mothafraker]

Actually, it's sword colliding with a lead pipe from the scene after McCloud meets Brenda in the bar for the first time when the Kurgan attacks them.

[eggmansizzle]

Except it's not wwf kurgan's theme

It's The Kurgan, the villain from Highlander

[brpierce]

On the other hand, I always thought this would've made the best theme music for a wrestler ever.

[DXhhhshawn]

wwf kurgan?

[irulethe]

yes wwf kurgan o.o the tall dude right? with the muscle.. and crazy eyes.. his name is kurgan right?

[DXhhhshawn]

yea

[austinmillbarge22]

great theme:)
