George Harrison's -- "The Pirate Song"

[NobodyLikeAlexa]

if he was still alive he could have played in pirates of the caribbean 3 jack sparrows father instead of keith richards =D

[MrsClippit]

so funny

[capri325]

at first i was like "WTF HAPPENED TO GEORGE'S LEG!?!" and then 0:47 appeared...

[roytuxrue]

George Harrison, Trolling like a Boss, before it became cool

[roytuxrue]

Manita arriba si vienes de escucharlo en Universal Stereo

[PrudenceGriffin]

George is the sexiest pirate ever! He can pilage my village anytime ;)

[PrudenceGriffin]

No commentXD

[T55Storm]

George was in the wrong line of work he should have been a actor

[combinownage]

This is why George is the best Beatle.

[Williamsfan]

Oh rye in eye ay.

[MyEndymion]

George Harrison was a brilliant composer and guitarist, sometimes unfortunately underrated by some igorants.

[TheJedisch]

xD This is one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen. Beatles forever! (I love you George)

[MrTaxman72]

The pirate theme song.

[Komotau4691]

WTF?BUT GREAT SHOW!

[PSGate]

ouh-ouh-ouh-haha-eeh-eeh-ha-ha­-ha-hoo

[BobblyFlower]

omfg i cant get over howgood this

omg so stoked

[insectosocial245]

sdjkgkjsagjkjk

[findemaxa13]

This. is. beautiful.



[groton27]

hahaha.. RIP George

[Hadraedan96]

That was what inspired Johnny Depp

[MsBkirk]

Was Eric Idle's gold lame suit the model for Russell Grant's oven-ready turkey look on Strictly Come Dancing?

[sianisit1]

THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN. Just sayin'.

[bloodtimer]

Should of given him his pirate sketch...

[erk7xl]

when he breaks into the pirate song i was laughing so hard. i totally didnt see that coming.

[nofriendo64]

GEORGE WILL GET HIS PIRATE SKETCH!!!

[youngian]

Pity Scorcese didn't pick this one up for George Harrison film. Pure gold.

[JammerZice]

My sweet pirate.

[cluciano63]

George was the only one with enough humor to work with the Rutlands and Monty Python gang, John and Paul could never have made fun of themselves in the same way...

[beatlesfreak5597]

aha i love him,

he was gonna sing My Sweet Lord but he parodied it by singing The Pirate Song :DD <3

[supsupese]

trolling, George Harrison is a pioneer

[LeDoll]

Awkward George is awkward

[panzercat39]

George is sublimely funny,I have said it on many George posts,but it bears repeating,George was the coolest Beatle!!!

[Chavezstinks]

I kinda want this as my ringtone. Correction: I NEED THIS AS MY RINGTONE

[PiratedFilmsPro]

Eric Idle looks like a straight fruit cake.

[StimpsonJay]

Huh. who knew George was the funniest Beatle.

[bloodtimer]

Oh George Harrison, you lovable troll :D

[HeddyValle]

omg Epic... epic.. epic! he pwned everyone! evreyone was like wtf are you doing.. and hes all singing his pirate song like he doesnt give a fuck! i freakin love George <3

[Matt10670]

I wonder what would happen if he tried that on a live, non-comedic show.

[colort1123]

LMAO!!!

[GFS009]

Como buen ingles, buen pirata XD fuera de broma. GH es el mejor Beatle de los cuatro.

[JohnSardine]

Excellent. I didn`t expect that at 2.15.

[BobDylanFan1966]

im not here to sing im here to act, Jim Lad on the dead man's chest, the pirate sketch, no pirate sketch, up you then oh i got a jolly roger

[stupendousferret]

I really wish "Rutland Weekend Television" would come out on dvd.

[thebeatlesgeek10]

Awesomest pirate ever.

[BlainePistolle]

the best Beatle, no question.

[ANDO5600]

JAJAJAJA!!!!!

[glassroom135]

Eric Idle!!!!!

[rockchickfairy]

Its the christmas play

Oh no

hhaha I love seeing the fun side of george

[stardeau28]

FIRST, CAPT JACK SPARROW. NEXT, RUSSELL BRAND. AND THE ACADEMY AWARD GOES TO.....GEORGE HARRISON!!!!!

[321rayden]

for sucha silly song,he sounds so good doing it.

[LennonHarrisonFan96]

George's voice is so funny in this!I always laugh at the beginning when he first walks in.I love how when George starts singing "The Pirate Song" the people in the background are all looking at eachother with confused expressions.

[baseballgirl25]

Just when we thought George couldn't get any sexier, we see Pirate Bob. How about we nix that pansy Will Turner from the Pirates films and put Pirate Bob in there instead?

[Dan5cerKa5t]

I was laughing so hard

then i got sad, because he isn't with us any more

[rockchickfairy]

@Dan5cerKa5t

Yeah i love watching his clips but then i remember.

Peace and love

[fleminsh]

What song was he about to play?

[UkuleleRay]

@fleminsh My Sweet Lord

[kl990]

what the fuck did I just watch.

[VLeeds]

simply freakin great

[Samaranation]

HIs accent is absolutely adorable!!! He's awesome! AND Gerogeous :P

[921retro]

Nice and fun!

[raintalonwindclan]

I love how both Ringo and George had fun with their careers! :D

[999ILIVEBYMETAL666]

7 people aren't pirates 

[Samaranation]

Hahahahahah! George is a kick ass pirate. He could play a guitar with his....nvm. :P

[LordSion45]

LOL thats freaking hilarious!

[MIGUEL2005LIMA]

monty python sketch

[comanchio1976]

@MIGUEL2005LIMA Dou you mean a copy of one?

This was Eric's own show after the Pythons split

[MIGUEL2005LIMA]

@comanchio1976 really? well but is in the style of the pythons or the style of the eric sketches before the split,copy? idle was a python cosnpicuos menberm, is unfair call as a a copy,

[comanchio1976]

@MIGUEL2005LIMA I thought that 'you' was saying that it was a copy, I was unsure of what you meant by simply writing "Monty Python sketch".

Just a misunderstanding, that's all.

Anyway, this show was 'Eric Idle's 1975 Rutland Weekend Television show.'

[MIGUEL2005LIMA]

@comanchio1976 ok

[cokkiepartylennon93]

to the 7 people who dont find this cute or funny you obviously dont know humor haha

[ninovadick]

george=funny ... great man!

[mriadunn]

So freakin' awesome! Thanks for this!

[lisa8797]

George + pirates song = :D -3 x3 million

[Hesiona69]

Oh, George, you are great!

[BeckyBeatle]

I love how it sounds like My Sweet Lord and then he bursts out into a Pirate song

[BeckyBeatle]

Better than every single JLS put together :) 100% true x

[raintalonwindclan]

Aww I wuv George.

[4FabBEATLES]

George was always the best Beatle personality wise in my opinion

[GeorgeHarrisonLuver1]

is this one an album?

[Beatlescanner]

George is the best pirate ever! ^^

[gradsssara]

this is so funny!

i wonder if i can find a love button

[Knatonthefield]

My favorite Beatle and my favorite Monty Python!



[HisxLittleXRunaway]

Dear George,

I freakin' love you for this.

Love,

Me

[kitkat8562]

thank you,in a minute,yes, thank you, yes,lovely.lovely, shove off

[BLAHBITCHZ123]

He almost eats shit

I love that he is so epic.

[Taggerung12]

MAN- when the Beatles were together, George got the LEAST recognition- but would you EVER see John, Paul, or Ringo ever do THIS?? George is AMAZING

[abridgedfan107]

@Taggerung12 well, Ringo was on the laugh-in, but your point remains the same! the 'big important beatles' NEVER would do comedy like this! =D

[OropherThranduil]

@abridgedfan107

come on, they all did the shakespeare sketch.

[abridgedfan107]

@OropherThranduil i meant more or less after the beatles ended. do you know how completely win it would be if all of them did the saturday night live offer?

[OropherThranduil]

@abridgedfan107

oh, yeah, i know what you mean.

imagine john and paul really getting of off theira sses when that host made the joke offer with a redicilous low money sum.

but no, they were too exhausted.

[JulieLovesTheBeatles]

@Taggerung12 So true. :D

[dangeloso]

I love this! thank you so much for uploading. I actually heard this song as a little kid and it was not until i was a about 16 that i heard my sweet lord and i thought "how odd that he used the same intro to this song as to the pirate song".... sometime it takes a while for a gag to sink in :D

[BaronVonMeggles]

I especially love that guy who looks like Mr. Darcy dancing in the background, haha.

[senodran]

ahahhahhhhh

[McHaleMega]

Technically... All Together Now was also about pirates.

[kenc1161]

Classic.....

[lokolol]

jajajajj the first Jack Sparrow............

[ggwillym]

Johnny Depp - eat your heart ot!!

[bowiewondergirl]

@ggwillym George Harrison will always be the sexy pirate

[7hs3beat]

Wow!!!! never seen this before . Love you George.

[googiesmom]

how is he the quiet and serious ine when he can do this sort of things

[BeatlesCentury]

>.< He sounds so adorible when he goes "...I sing?"

[xMIXIIx]

2:42 <3

[Gabriel77Rhcp]

2:44 ♥♥

[blackwelderadam]

Lol! I've never seen this before! Ty for posting this!

[maltesemario]

The band was expecting to play My Sweet Lord instead George sang the Pirate song

[LeothirNanirhandel]

All together now!

[llamawalrus]

It was a missed opportunity, they had Ron Nasty, Dirk McQuickly and Barry Wom, and they invite to the show this guy who is supposed to be a cheap copy of Stig O'hara. It's just sad.

[nurikoinsane]

Jeje, George has a dead parrot on his shoulder...

[Beatleluver1234567]

You don't know how many times I peed myself when I watched this xDDD

[sidwerd1hater]

7 people are not pirtates. They've turned to ninjas.

[TheSmashingPumkinz]

I LOVE YOU GEOREY

George is soo bumed because he cant do his pairte sceck

[TheSmashingPumkinz]

I LOVE YOU GEOREY

[brittanynoel02]

6 ppl are ninjas.

[BeatleyTaxman]

I want George in my bed

[ZZqezza]

@BeatleyTaxman Me too. And I want him to wear that pirate costume:-)

[bibi5027]

@BeatleyTaxman me too

[comanchio1976]

@BeatleyTaxman That'd be way too messy... considering he was cremated ;)

[BeatleyTaxman]

@comanchio1976 Don't doubt George's mad skills ;}

[Beatleluver1234567]

@BeatleyTaxman hell. yes.

[mipuck97]

@BeatleyTaxman Well that would be tough, he would have to be a ghost, and that might be a bit wierd he would just like float right through you... BUT ANYWAY, I LOVE GEORGE TOO.

[dansitillo]

Just one word: EPIC,

Thumbs up if you think George was so funny!

[comanchio1976]

@dansitillo Well that's the whole concept of the 'thumbs up' system anyway, to show that you agree/disagree with a statement.

No prompting required thanks

[ChildofNemesis14]

@dansitillo Usually I don't give in to people who ask for thumbs up but damn you got me cornered with this one :P

[angela135791]

I have never seen anyone work a pirate costume like George :)

[1010Beatles]

George is so funny!!!!!!! XD

[carrywet]

The beginnig of "My sweet Lord" sounds best of all Harrison's live versions. But, the rest of the song is interesting and good too.

[libralotus]

One word: EPIC.

[jamzftw]

2:22 - 2:25 lol

The band: What is he doing, what's going on?

George: What, am I doing something wrong, why aren't you playing!

[edwardelricfangirl1]

arrr Georgie is Pirate lol i can image him has Capitan Jack Sparrow uncle lol

[Drummerkid461995]

6 people aren't sailin the BBC.

[Sabrina9596]

[dewhistle]

This is awesome! I was around during the 70s, but I missed a lot! Of course, I was only 3 when this aired...

[newfful]

George is sooooo cute even in a pirate costume.

[iluvgrennday227]

[kevinjonasrocksout]

[sasa86sca]

[abridgedfan107]

:47 no pirate sketch? then up you, then.

XD george was hysterical, handsome, and talented.  we miss ye.

[discordiatookie]

Johnny Depp says he channelled Keith Richards for Jack Sparrow, but I cannot help but think that mayhap he also watched this in his training...

[georgeharrisonfan18]

Eric Idle + George Harrison=Sooo funny xD Two very funny and loud men!

[Keewaf]

lmao! did not expect that!!

[nurikoinsane]

My Sweet Pirate n__n

[stegosweetandsaur]

[isawman1]

He looks like a traditional pirate.

[Pasalaqcua]

[paulspalace]

Johnny Depp eat your heart out lol

[Briannaedwards98]

[sgrriggs]

Arrrrrrrrr The Black spot

[megnmandi]

Can he be any more adorable?!

[spongebeatles]

we r so used 2 seeing George so serious, seeing him as a pirate is so funny!!!!!!!!!!!

[tiranchula]

Oh, God Bless George! Even now, you still put a smile and harty laugh on my lips!

[SilverAsakura]

Beatles respect +100

[Beatnikzombie]

He was the quiet one who never shut up. He was the serious one who was hysterically funny.

[democratjoe]

@Beatnikzombie And he couldn't help but die on my 11th birthday. I mean what're the odds your favorite member of a historic band dies ON YOUR BIRTHDAY?

Sorry for the rant, but I just can't get over that

[bibi5027]

@Beatnikzombie well he was quet and it is cuse he talked when he had what to tell,you know,and when he talked it was great

[teppo51]

@Beatnikzombie Hysterically??? Doesn't take you much, does it

[Beatnikzombie]

@teppo51 Actually, I was quoting Terry Gilliam. I think he qualifies to know what's funny.

[countwolfula]

@Beatnikzombie Amen to that! In addition to being such a great musician, George Harrison was a gifted and natural comedic actor!

[countwolfula]

I've said it before, I cannot imagine another Rock band or singing group with half the musical talent AND acting ability as The Beatles.

We'll just never see the likes of them again.

Simply the best.

[dramasinger324]

@countwolfula i couldn't agree more. :)

[iLoveJohnLennon17]

omggggg i cant stop laughing!!!!

[amandatully]

"but what if you were to write a pirate sketch?" ahah, he sounds so cute. <3 "don't you want to play a pirate?" love george. (:
