Brian Jonestown Massacre-When Jokers Attack

[darkktur]

This sounds nothing like godless, wtf are you snorting?

[pfuglnej]

The Warhols totally stole this melody on godless<<

[StephenAndrew777]

@pfuglnej They're pathetic and proud of it. I know.

[rckhnt]

@pfuglnej thats funny...godless came out before this...hmmm...

[apinariku13]

Nitro Roadwarriors!!

[PunkTail95]

All TBJM songs' makes my mind lost

[weareTheBigLicks]

this song reminds me of heart full of soul by the Yardbirds

[astorianstigmata]

Groovy!



[WoodenHeart]

The girl in this song sure is groovy! :D

[coldironhands1]

That's not anton, who is that person? It looks spot on with brian jones, but it's not him is it??

[Gunnxorz]

@coldironhands1 its a girl. Brian Jones is dead

[TubobRainbowUnicorn]

nothing is truly original except the ability to take the not original and make it yours and nobody does it better than Anton

[dermot51]

Its "sink or swim" by Bad Lieutenent. BJH should really sue but its such a hackneyed derivative chord progession to start with it,why the fuck bother 

[Remington61189]

@dermot51 no sorry, i can't hear the similarity between this and sink or swim

[placematmoccasins]

I lost my virginity to this song.

Hell yeah.

[hamishkassidy]

@placematmoccasins nice one. well jealous

[SeanWayneTV]

@placematmoccasins I re-gained my virginity to this song! dig.

[cyclinsatyr]

@SeanWayneTV I'm still a virgin to this song,sigh.

[Pili117]

@SeanWayneTV nice :D

[TheYellowDiscipline9]

@placematmoccasins

I made somebody lose her virginity to this song.

[stalbansrecords]

@placematmoccasins lost mine to calcutta by lawrence welk!

[loveisallmaroon]

Does anyone know the name of the girl in this video?

[raylot13]

I mean ever

[raylot13]

Wether this is fan made or not, this is by far the greatest music video i've enter seen

[Steviemtothec]

mel c and bryan adams....when youre gone.....zzzzzzzzzzz yaaaaawn

[ed1962]

this is very similar to godless by dandy warhols. unfortunatley for them this is about 4 x more epic.

[DYKEPALS]

@ed1962 lol well said

[starlaforlibertines]

@ed1962 Agreed (even though godless is a great song)

[deeroks1]

song is a classic.period!!

[opharliasabine]

FUCKING yes

[robinmondorama]

wonderful

[hitwall]

sometimes bjm tries to ride a no wave,...then amazingly they find the right one, like this tune, and take that tasty wave all the way in..... sf style they r so hit or miss it's crazy

[mjanzen49]

i have just been attacked by a joker....

[WildSedna]

sounds a bit like 'godless' by the dandy!

[coldironhands1]

i cant tell if that's brian jones or some chick in the footage

[gauchebag]

@coldironhands1

its obviously some girl trying to look like the brian jones

[chanceklc]

all band internal bs aside... BJM and Dandys are a helluva combination for a show...

[Sublime3898]

dreams die fast, fast! whenever you dream they can laaaast :(

[ScottMcLean11]

Oh, Heaven, that's awesome, peaceful, thrilling, buddhagordafuckin'good vibes !!!;)

[bobbycoltrane]

This is some real good shit Anton, I guess it sounds nothing like John Mayer so why would the radio stations bother to play this classic.

[Tionyd]

arrgh... this is soooo fricking awesome *=*

[jeenyus76]

This girl is so hot does anybody no who she is or what her name is?

[argonman14]

@jeenyus76

Isn't it Anton with makeup and girl clothes??

[TheManolakis]

awesome picture of Nrsingadeva, another reason to love the jonestown massacre

[devorah66]

this is f ing annoying

[cmfishburn]

all you cats saying this is a Dandy rip off do you not get the irony of the singer in this video looking a hell of a lot like Courtney Taylor.

[thelanzmeyer]

i think i love this more than i should

[encrustanail]

listen to heart full of soul by the yardbirds. they totally ripped it off here.

[1964jazzbass]

@encrustanail oh !

[hellybellybell]

@encrustanail whoa! yeah it does. damn.

[jomom]

Dandy's FOLLOWED BJM in every sense of the word.

[jomom]

Dandy's FOLLOWED BJM in every sense of the word.

[outrider18]

MIranda Lee Richards

[Kaaz]

There is a drug for every bjm song :)

[NameyMD]

Hey what you doing...

[rta5000]

@NameyMD

LMAO

[BigEl88]

who are 6 faggot dislike this song... ?

[nbiancalana]

this song is incredible. ever time i hear it I feel intensely euphoric and super in the moment.

[bartuss2]

Great!!

[ezpezz388]

Dandy's 'Godless' came out in 2000, BJM's 'When Jokers attack' in 2003, and they are both bloody good songs.

[monkdwalleydehonk]

YAWN.

[inputmodule]

sounds alot like 'good morning' too

[jbomb4eva]

thinking anton would steal from the dandy's without it being a direct joust at the dandys themselves is just ridiculous.. the dandys even tried to capitalize of bjm in the documentary Dig.. dandys dont come close to bjm.. not hatin on them tho, but anton is up their with the likes of cobain and other tormented souls who were seemingly placed on the earth to write great music...

[dy30n]

@jbomb4eva anton did not steal from the dandys you fuckin ass,anton the fuckin bjm are way better then the dandys you fucker fuck you die

[pwerplnblak]

@dy30n ummm, i think he said the same thing you just said about bjm being better in his opinion than the dandys. maybe u misunderstood him.

[CrippleCreak101]

@pwerplnblak I like your mediating skills

[drc9777]

@dy30n this song isnt bad, but godless is better and this anton fellow clearly stole it and added some trills and such.

[CrippleCreak101]

@jbomb4eva you are an idiot

[pwerplnblak]

@CrippleCreak101 why is he an idiot. he says very nice things about the composer of this song that i am assuming you and i both like, since we are here listening to it. just wondering. maybe he thinks something that you disagree with, but that doesnt make him an idiot...

[giller63]

Sounds amazingly like Godless by the Dandys. Anton is a genuis, but this is stolen, ;period.

[dy30n]

@giller63 you are stupid anton doesnt fuckin care about the dandys ,why would he steal some non talented music?

[giller63]

this is totally stolen from the Dandys. Anton is an absolute genius, but this is stolen.

[ReggieBush420]

then whats this?!

[valenian]

WOW

[pathduck]

And yeah that is a chick and she is teh hotness.

[pathduck]

I LOVE this video and this band!

[donbrujo]

!!!Anton!!!Rules The NOW!!!!

[xxXCALIBURxx]

it's a shame that person has testicules.

[PORPH]

@xxXCALIBURxx

You are kidding..?

Crikey .. Then i'm gay..

[DJiLLWiLL]

BJM is a great band and Anton's a genius, but the problem is that he thinks he's God! it doesn't matter how much heroin he does, he'll never be Lou Reed. He has the talent to be revolutionary, but he is too busy being a self-serving prick.

[poodifultoypoodles]

a lot of the best music that the world has ever heard was created by self indulgent, drug fucked geniuses. You want Anton to be revolutionary, how is that? What do you want from him. He is what he is, get over it and enjoy what he has given to the universe.

[evancasto]

I'm sorry but honestly Anton>Lou Reed.

[h0ll0h]

I know that others persons had already written it but I need to write it too : I LOVE the BJM and this song especially !

[Lemonhead86]

great song!

[totenkopfdivision]

What a great looker. Another classy BJM song.

[mmtot]

Open your third eye !

[dapperswindler]

@mmtot

open your third eye? Anything like the brown eye?

[webcityguy]

@dapperswindler It's the opposite: you try to keep the brown eye shut.

[jdh2425]

I love this song. Such a classic.

[youracocksucker]

i think subconsiouslly anton was angry that the rest of his bandmates werent as crazy as he was..

[antonfjordson]

nobody dreams about you.

[skeletinaDeath]

this is a great video

[ConsumptionMayCause]

dandys are...ok

but nothing compares to bjm. anton is a musical genius.

[smokinspliff76]

totally agree with singingforfood. either way two great bands!!

[singingforfood]

dandy warhols-godless.. i dont know who wrote it first but the bjm sounds so much better....love your music anton

[ConsumptionMayCause]

If that were Anton, then I guess I might be gay...she is fine

[curtisrunstedler]

She's really cute, who is she?

[lewis20201]

Anton's sister apparently

[versuslosangeles83]

anyone ever notice how much the dandy warhols rippppped this song off? listen to godless then listen to this.

[chowardc]

I think Godless was released before this song...no???

[73mandala]

you need to get your facts staight he ripped of them

[MafiaWars23]

@versuslosangeles83 both bands influenced each other and they remain friends to this day. Dont fall into that silly bs rivalry. Zia recently performed "Not if You Were the Last Dandy" on Earth with BJM and Courtney has said several times before and after DIG that BJM is the greatest band on Earth. The bands remain friends to this day.

[DOCTORWHOEMPIRE]

the best,....

[tkmat]

this is honestly on of my fave songs of all time. so beautiful, and so well composed musically. intense.

[thujon01]

Absolutely right!....the boy is a girl! ...anyway the music ...FETZT!

[MaitreChong]

the girl is a man

or?

[PORPH]

The Girl in this video is gorgeous...

[frankzappa199]

the riff does kind of sound like Heart full of Soul, but i wouldnt go so far as to call it a ripoff. And besides, Anton is the son of god he takes whatever he needs

[GoSvFF]

YES! you have seen DiG!

[gauchebag]

it's the same riff, just not the entire thing. but yeah he does this kind of stuff alot but he makes as much original music so it doesnt matter

[gauchebag]

@frankzappa199

it's the same riff but he adds more to the end of it

doesn't matter though, he likes to pay homage to bands he likes and most of the stuff he puts out is just as good as his influences

[polykroma]

yes

[sillybighat]

savage!

[SEONinja]

I dont think the BJM have official videos ;)

[Duffy01]

I downloaded it from their offical website a few years ago.

[SEONinja]

and thanks for uploading it!

[cmfishburn]

@SEONinja this video was done by a fellow by the name of Charles Mehling of Streetgang Films. He has done "official" videos for Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, the Charlatans, and others.

[OswestryGrey]

Love it. btw Black Market Karma

[alpacinoisgod]

i love this song..

[AnonyMoooose]

this song is a ripoff / tribute to a yardbirds song.

[chumbscrubber42]

wich yardbirds song?

[nixonrave]

heart full of soul

[RadBrad13]

Evil. <3

[dy30n]

brad you fuckin beast,this is evil you are right FUCKIN GREATIST SONG EVER COMPOSED

[caithsith777]

who is that lion-head one on the picture at start ?

[Outpost206]

an incarnation of Vishnu

[OswestryGrey]

Black Market Karma

[robinmccready]

whos the girl in the video?

[amadlook]

BJM BABY FUCK YEEee

[OswestryGrey]

Check out Black Market Karma, a new band influenced by the genius of Anton Newcombe. Their tune "Changed" has a similar melodic baseline.

"Godless" was released first and one suspects there may have been some collaboration. Either way, "Godless" is a decent tune but "When Jokers Attack" is a masterpiece.

[princessesarouche]

gosh, black market karma are so fucking amazing, i've saw them twice a time on stage.

[weezerbabe23]

I too am a Duffy!

[scnbjm]

psychedelic

[dy30n]

this should be rated as one of the best songs since the 1960's this song should be in rolling stone as one of the best songs composed

[cyclecourier]

They always give credit to the smiths, yardbirds jesus and mary chang etc..Theres no maybe about taking riffs.

[relentlessquavers]

anyone think this song sounds like The Smiths??

[Outpost206]

some of the guitar work does and the rhythms, yeah.

[stuffstuff9]

looollll

[gobbooo]

almost identical to godless by the dandy warhols. Someone got ripped off big time

[stuffstuff9]

yeah you did

when god didnt give you a brain

[mindexit07]

wow, did this come out before godless? otherwise i'd have to say the dandys did sort of rip them off, but then again its hard to not rip off songs these days.

[pozado]

actually this song was released after godless...

but anyway, i like them both, they were friends, why should their fans hate each other?

[codeastronomer]

considering Dandies pretty much ripped off Antons sound anyway, I'd say "who gives a shit if this sounds the same" : )

[SEONinja]

I have to agree. contrary to all this hype, the Warhols are still friends with Anton and crew. They influenced, borrowed, and covered alot of each others music. Yes they have a rivalry but we aren't talking blur vs. oasis here. Its the old passage: Friends don't like to see their friends succeed.

[SEONinja]

The Warhols did once say that the Brian Jonestown Massacre was the greatest band on earth.

[dy30n]

i want to kill the people that say this song sounds like godless becasuse they just fuckin brainless

[sleepingmotor]

Why? They do sound almost identical, I like both of them. I guess I just don't know about any feud or something.

[dy30n]

no they dont ,this is about 20000000 fuckin millions times more well composed,download the song and listen to it with windowmedia player with WOW EFFECTS on

[hiddenpunk291]

well i always thought that godless sounds like this song if that makes you feel any bettter haha

[moaningatmidnight]

wow this sounds just like godless

[SEONinja]

you are welcome to try...

[jandean61]

Heroine is so passe

[crisponsglove]

damn.... antwuans lookin pretty good in this video.

[seesselberg]

Such a beautiful , heartbreaking song , by the best still - existing band !
