System of a Down - Spiders live on Conan O'Brien (1998)

[BigfootDelozier17]

Serj is sexy with make up ;)

[Deathbringe1]

I wonder whats winding through Darons head

[FerreiraOgrande]

2:07 ohohohohohohoh  lol

[007sssniper]

America Awake !!!

[Raksasa187]

wow, epic shyt!!

[JetlagAgain]

Back when Serj actually tried to sing instead of just making funny voices

[Moocoww0ofta]

Serj looks like he's trying to say daron stop screwing round xD

[tylerstieben]

1:55 fuckin bad ass

[marianalima4]

kkkk' Muito engraçado...Nuss o Serj tá muito gato *--*

Mais gente na questão de que eles mudaram...Poxa todo mundo muda, eles estão com mais de 38 anos, vocês querem o quê?

Uns garotões de 20!?

Vamos aceitar eles do jeito que eles são! e mesmo assim eles continuam "FODAS PRA CARALHO"

I Love You "SYSTEM OF A DOWN!"

[FerreiraOgrande]

crazy guys hehe nice

[spiderjerusalem100]

One of the best songs ever written.

[slipknotrule999]

2:33 gotta get that dam itch >__<

[CCComboMaN]

The best System of a Down live song ! ! !

[DmitryKamaev]

Serj really seems nervous. It's a big event in 1998 for band like System of a Down.

[GingerbreadCoffinx]

@TheShauny16 Serj fell asleep and Jigglypuff got him.

[GingerbreadCoffinx]

Ah, yes! Old Daron who used to wear nail polish, lipstick, wild outfits, and wild hair colors. He was a complete wierdo. And, that's why I had such a huge crush on him back in those days. Now he's all chubby and boring. Today he looks like an Armenian Ron Jeremy. Haha! *pout* :[

[CncAltarf]

Holy shit... never seen this video before... add more tags man! do that as a favor to mankind!

[LanceK17]

This performance was actually in March of 2000.

[killum66]

The guitar at 1:55 fuckin so hard. 

[Spective]

AMERICA, AWAKE! hahahaha amazing.

[TheJack2895]

3:00 extreme scream!



[MrSethology]

Generally there not that good live, MAYBE IT REALLY IS BECAUSE THERE INTOXICATED DURING A GREAT DEAL OF THERE CONCERTS

[GirlsLie7]

2:14 freaked me tha fuck out in a good way : D lol

[warriorwithin24]

seen them 3 times

great live band

[ironzeppelin44]

3:17 Whoa, bro.

[LulJam]

pretty sure Serj was casting spells all over the place

[manpanda100]

People dont realize how well this song was done live

[huerfanoproducciones]

EPIC DARON!

[exussupremebeing]

....is it me, or do these cats look possessed here?

[diabolusgtp]

AMERICA AWAKE!!! Genial!!

[ChienlitUltime]

For people who don't know SOAD this may be f*cking scary

[ConVic73d]

@ChienlitUltime hahaha, exactly what Conan was like, after this song he was like pure disturbed, shivering and shit, even said "that was disturbing" XD

[Metal666Blade]

@TheDeadnoght Hey watch it we are their fans

[YogiDMT]

you know the audience was WTFing

[atftooldrumssk8]

serj sticks out like a sore thumb. take off your shirt



[TheDeadnoght]

os cara eram psicopatas desde o inicio

[txbungeejumpa]

I fucking love Daron's spastic playing!! IT's like someone handed a spider monkey on crack a guitar and said"play the shit outta this"

[burningkarma]

Conan used to have all the great bands.

[dougransley]

@burningkarma he used to be funny too!

[LegendaryTheReverend]

I imagine what the audience is thinking. Ahahaha :D

[edddiego]

:conandance:

[MrJackass230]

at 2;33 daron scratches his neck its so funny

[revdavid11]

They are like bad robots :D

[ZoliV70HunHDTV]

@revdavid11 agree :D

[auburnfan313]

Man, John was tearing it up on the drums!

[EraEraSkeetBra]

America awake...

[jpliii08]

Not as bad as some are making it sound. I dig it okay.

[t3hpez]

guitar was out of tune... Serj was fucking ace though

[dovledovle]

When everything was hypnotizing..

[PatHelmsleyisback]

Daron always god.

[Jimihendrix6699]

daron played like fucking shit. good song though

[IPlayDaBasss]

@Jimihendrix6699 I'm not sure we're watching the same video

[Jimihendrix6699]

@IPlayDaBasss its pretty sloppy/choppy

[svr2011gamer1234]

daron is crazy man

[Kaboomdang]

this is back when metal was respected like it fucking should be

[nickplu]

Fantastic performance, this one!

[sta0005]

Serj looks like fucking Rasputin!

[malyPista1]

they were skinny as fuck :D

[HugoTankianZemok]

@PatrickLeonDotCom Ruined ?

[GhostFaceKillahhhhh]

I bet the crowds shat them selves. . .

[KempoKyushoMuayThai]

you can really tell that they reeeallly enjoyed their blow, especially Darron Lol

[toku2008]

Oh my god...

[PatrickLeonDotCom]

Daron always sucked live, this is a perfect example. He also RUINED S.O.A.D.

[boudouboudouza]

@PatrickLeonDotCom Dude, Serj's great vocals and aggressive screams (or shouts), Daron's simple riffs and random acts + messy playing at live performances and John's amazing drums playing reached them where they 've gotten. Without Daron Soad would not be the same. And what do you mean he "ruined" it? I think it was a mutual decision. Daron didn't even go on a solo career, but he made SoB with the other system guys (at first Daron has said that Shavo would be included, too).

[jOsEfLeEviE]

@PatrickLeonDotCom Daron wrote like 75% of the music. I like Serj more and don't really like Daron's singing voice, but S.O.A.D would be nothing without Daron. 

[lazrpo]

@PatrickLeonDotCom He's pretty much responsible for how they sound. Serj writes most of the lyrics, Daron writes most of the music.

[123hondacivic]

First time i see serj put eye liner.

[Veso17]

holy shit, 1998 in 3D

[StealThisSugar]

@Veso17 lol

[SredTV]

THIS IS SO FUCKING AWESOME

I LOVE SOAD

OAOOAOAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAH THIS IS LIKE A BIG ORGASM FOR MY EAR!!!!

[RyanConlon93]

hahahaha holy fucking shit, i love soad, but they were so fucking weird back then, i cant believe they actually aired this on tv

[Kaboomdang]

@RyanConlon93 dude, this is when they were fucking awesome. unique, should replace weird in your comment. they aired it because this is when metal was respected like it should be. now they all calmed down on their live shows and arent as fun to watch as they used to be

[GALM1CIPHER93]

MY GOD AT 3:19 LOOK AT SHAVO

Fuck high as a kite that mf'er is on the moon lol

[Ueichen]

@GALM1CIPHER93 look at daron in the whole fucking video

[lateralusdrew]

sick

[LanceK17]

Actually this performance was in March of 2000 just to let everyone know. It was about 12 years ago.

[insainbassist]

I forgot how weird SOAD was. Awesome performance.

[Nejitheultimate]

Why is Serj dressed and acting like a mad shamman? Is that just how they used to perform?

[bensoffgruppen]

@Nejitheultimate Essentially, yes.

He was alot nuttier in the 90's, more "metal" than today.

[fulsame1]

@Nejitheultimate yeah, basically.

[demolitioninc1]

14 years? Holy Shit! Time runs!

[Yppy26]

@demolitioninc1 Time doesn't run. People change.

[JimmyJ2J]

Lol at Daron's move at 2:34 hahaha.

I love SOAD.

[br1mstone666]

AMERICA AWAKE!

[br1mstone666]

Only on CONAN

[HENRIQuecxde]

Serj + Harry potter hahaha

[MrJackass230]

2:54 poor darons neck is itchy lets just give it a scratch

[Retcrow]

The V chip gives them sight.

[TheJack2895]

The Best Performance Live that i saw

[MizukiZOMBIE]

[KennyMcCormick1100]

[hollowskull100]

Anyone knows what episode this is?

[Broswithboardness]

who cares if they changed atleast there still around just look at all the bands from the 90's that are gone.

[afroninja515]

Haha, shavo's beard is so small in this video.

[flipp98ist]

maybe daron shouldent stop taking drugs

but there songs are good like the old ones

[domino9two]

Man, THIS is so old, I wonder if they knew how popular they'd be back then?\

[chr0305]

ahh Good times!

[koolOVERkill]

Thumbs up if System of a down should have a Guitar Hero game!

[MrJackass230]

@koolOVERkill fuck ya!!!!!! thats an awsome idea

[alejitaqc93]

@koolOVERkill toooooo mainstream for system. they would never agree to it

[ILOVEHIPPIEFLIPS]

@koolOVERkill ya if guitar hero didnt go bankrupt last year

[TheEditingShop]

@koolOVERkill No. FUCK no.

[maddeku0]

[CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz]

S.O.A.D 1998..and yet they're still better then slipknot, korn, and every other band ive ever heard (Especially the new ones)

[TheOriginalTeddy]

[SHman555]

[rnpgaming118]

[darkbutnotemo]

[luukraver]

Such an amazing performance!

[ollie1695]

I don't know Conan o Brien but i would have done anything to be him for 3 minutes and 39 seconds

[dougransley]

AMERICA AWAKE!!

[BlinJe]

This must have been shocking(ish) in the late 90's...

I know there's worse stuff but usually it was just swearing or sexual - which people would find easier to deal with

[Krzychuckpl]

I like SOAD playing and performing like on this show. IMO first album is the best.

[ZymphonyOfDeztructio]

jajajaja Daron crazyy ja

[davidmalakian17]

13 stupids

[LethargicMule]

3:09 Hairball!

[damncritics]

I haven't been a fan of System for a very long time. Were they always this bizarre back in the day?

[WTFisAdoor]

@damncritics Yess......

[IPlayDaBasss]

@damncritics yes.

[DonkeysSkull]

@damncritics this is back in the day, this is really early system loll and they were always like this yes xD

[Sheepo25]

Serj... WTF are you wearing?!

[jamescram87]

3:16 Crazy eyes Shavo!

[firemblem01]

[barbvilanova]

Até então, não tinha visto vídeo que me apresentasse a banda System of Down, como eu a sinto. Divino o vídeo, agradeço ao cara que postou. Puta que pariu, FUCK AWESOME, thank´s for this video.

[blackfire053]

the way shavo moves always creeps me out

[WillyWallace100]

@SuperPhreshNess i've gone through many videos and forums involving SOAD, and i have never seen anyone who hates them.

[tingkagol]

[JCordoba1001]

fucking Al Qaeda in disguise. Love SOAD though

[nathanexplosion94]
