N.A.S.A. - Waydown

[MrBaebel]

Yes, I'm late, BUT:

Spirit Of Apollo is a fucking SENSATION!!

[rp7o333]

jean-michel jarre at: 1:16-1:20...if I don't meestake me ears. What a lovely composition this is.

[tonydibs007]

RZZZZZZZZZZZZZA???? the legend lives

[PizzaPusher2]

Is this the RZA?

[skull003]

@PizzaPusher2 the one and only baby!!

turururururururururu turururu tururururu … bobby digital xD

[AkuSaber]

Apollo, N.A.S.A, "way down", butterflies in the vid, others....coincidence?



[Shalvia1]

ditto, Masterpiece

[1214gooner]

Masterpiece... 

[tropicaliadiscos]

This song is a plagiarism of "vou sair do cativeiro" of the Brazilian duo Ton & Sergio, check it on youtube.com/watch?v=5o_GR1G3Im­Q,

no credit, what a shame!!!

[senortop]

@tropicaliadiscos : CONCORDO TOTALMENTE! Are you the original recording agency? Jorge Ben sued Rod Stewart ... they certainly sampled this track, but perhaps they went through the paper work? Unless of course, you hold the paper! ;)

[thesenamesaretaken]

And there I was thinking I hated hip hop!

[BlackListThro]

yea Barbie hatch and R.Z.A!!!

[BlackListThro]

yea Barbie hatch and R.Z.A!!!

[Marta1992rock]

This song must be great when John is playing

[millionsofyou]

i love everything about this song, John Frusciante never fails to impress me! :)

[poop464]

sounds like some geedorah, or doom. as the vocalist or possibly one of the artists he collabs with.

[kyle55]

@optimystikill Barbie Hatch

[Alphabex8]

is this video related to zach de la rocha in any way?

[bombak]

GO FRUSCIANTE!

[bombak]

GO FRUSCIANTE!

[Shalvia1]

N.A.S.A

faithfully in love to ambiguity

[test33real]

Love will conquer all

[tenyearsgone1389]

they are all males....

[cmos89]

this video is like a bird version of romeo and juliet...amazing song

[phiaB11]

im addicted at the moment! and always such good videos!

[cliobaby]

different...definately different, but in a good way..

[rp7o333]

Amazing track, amazing video. I am humbled by sheer artistic force; very apropos old school and classic interpretation of our lives; as a poet, i bow the f*ck down.

PG

[MPGfanatic]

this song kicks all ass there is to kick

[gdooyear]

This song is great and John Frusciante is amazing but this is heavily sampled from Vou Sair Do Cativeiro by Ton & Sergio. Buy Spirit of Apollo & Brazilian Guitar Fuzz Bananas both are great.

[tomasvagnersweden]

beautiful

[k0ekjebakker]

frusciante!

[italllies]

@k0ekjebakker RZA & FRUSCIANTE

Wu- represent & a god frusciante himself !

[LilaComoros]

pfffff!!!!!!! .... wHAT a Wonderfull!!!!!!!

[SonOfTheRightHand29]

excellent song, this is really cool

[ioxgully]

deep



[buddsolis]

crips and blood

[bcunharj]

He must have played on this track, but it seems they main riff comes from this old brazilian soul track: watch?v=5o_GR1G3ImQ&feature=re­lated

[zagfan10]

pretty6 sure john frusciante from red hot chili peppers is the guitar in this song

[powertrust71]

kanastic fliponic title

[pedrao420]

listen planet hemp.

the first band of zé gonzales, one of the guys behind N.A.S.A

[icutyouupsobad]

It's pretty sad that iTunes gave this album a pretty shitty review.

[shinrainc00]

very nice indeed. wish it went for longer

[Niggaliciusman]

wow my brother showed it to me..

Stop black on black crime..

yall great nasa

[kevinsgod]

the 187 on the birds arm represents the crips on the west coast

[Tyyasko]

@kevinsgod 2:00

[CaitSithDK]

Who is the female artists in this song?

[FLCLatomsk81]

@CaitSithDK Sounds like lily allen. Not sure though.

[hecmoney]

@CaitSithDK

Barbie Hatch is the female artist

[GeoCloset]

There is something that I definitely like and not only John !

[ridingwood]

The RZA part is epic !

[KaLiPs033]

How many people watching this realise John Frusciante is the guitarist for this?

[AnaMidonfan]

@KaLiPs033 Hi!!!!Frusciante is the reason why I love this song. I heard in one Mercy episodes and I couldn´t stop ´till I found it. The rap is nothing to me....I only hear the dirty dark guitar of John Frusciante.

[MLBSS27]

@KaLiPs033 how many people watching this realize the sample is close to 40 years old :P

either way, this is my favorite track from the album.

[senortop]

@KaLiPs033 : how many realize the entire composition is 1960's Brazilian song "VOU SAIR DO CATIVEIRO"? There's sampling tracks, and then there's this!



[singza]

Good song

[NSAshow]

did anyone else see the bloods and crips reference in this

[ghostboy777]

@NSAshow Absolutely. The pointless killing and the red and blue, it's kinda obvious. Irst time i saw it i got the hint.

[DrBukcake]

Frusciante = God

[jeang123]

this song/video is real music

[ChaosOfMusic94]

sogod so many good musicans in this music projekt ^^ :)

[mazrad11]

Sad and beautiful at the same time.. Powerful and depleted of redemption. revolution...

[jldkrank]

Holy Hell, Hip-Hop is still alive!

[JBnotthescotch]

@jldkrank This band is old

[QACtheMisfit]

I love the concept and execution of this project as a whole. I love subtleties in the illustrations. And the masterful RZA, Hip-Hop classic material. N.A.S.A take a bow for this one.

[RitchyLoks]

Somethin like that

[Lavenderunicorns]

Is this supposed to be like a Bloods/Crips kind of thing?

[rollbrettdriver]

@Lavenderunicorns i think so

[msb2infinity]

PUREST FORM!!!

[TheMANIAC96]

I couldn't take my eyes of the screen, almost made me cry lmao

[bamakoonline]

very, very disturbing

[MSPEC95]

i heard it was about the gangs in l.a?

either way, its a cool song i like it when the two types of music styles are combined.. lik when meth man an wu tang did that say what u want with texas..

[BeatJunkie87]

RZA, the genius with Nasa:.... Splendid!!

Thx 4 upload

[RitchyLoks]

GZA the genius

[czaghost]

@RitchyLoks haha no, more like rza the abbot...but same blood related family, rza n gza are cousins

[Gypsy4119]

Just awesome !!!

[sneaki602]

how this only has 90k views we may never know

[AgentAlloy]

because no one wants to listen to good hip hop anymore

[eljaviwashere]

true

[Gmixed]

crips and bloods

[maxinebrat3000]

I love how none of N.A.S.A. have like nothing to do with the song. The graphics in them are cool & this song is hot!

[bahremon2170]

I had to special order their album to my town... TOTALLY WORTH IT

[YouStoleMyBike]

for everyone wanting the download link, buy the damn album you cheapskates.

[TheOriginalEntz]

they are idiots you can just rip the audio out of the youtube

[Crazy4Tediz]

i just wanna turn it up louder!

[epicdominican91]

Can someone send a download link for this?

[du0t0ne]

produced by?

[suprimo222]

crazy animation

[420bmxer]

SEX

[Drogenmuffti]

Is this the official video? If yes, I think it's pretty cool. Didn't know there was one. This on of my favorites from the album

[yovanni805986]

rza killed it

[frusci4an1e]

john frusciantes guitar playin' is magic

[AloneInTheDarkSucks]

this song is the tits

[LondonerAtHart21]

the hell does that meaan? :P

[AloneInTheDarkSucks]

tits are the greatest invention ever.

Therefore, that's a good thing.

[pushimikuracvishe]

masturbation is not a crime!

[sobektus]

wtf does that have to do with the song?

[pushimikuracvishe]

if you really want to know , it is the essential atmosphere moment during the magic...

[JeromefromSampacity]

Sir Psycho Sexy.... Frusciante is the Lord of my Ears !!!

[Asm8492]

Beautiful Music & Art

[mike63v8]

love frusciante, his guitar is amazing in this song.

[CorinthB]

I love N.A.S.A! Their music is wonderful and their videos are always so beautiful! Six stars? :)

[Mcy81]

Song and video in combination = perfect! All in all a wonderful piece of art, love it!

[sobektus]

i like the 187 on the wing of the first blue killed bird.

[daniswired]

blue and red - crips & bloods in the urban ca wasteland

[hubbawh33l]

well,i guess it's not about romeo&juliet. for me it's all about people. situations and attitudes.

[sn0wgoon]

beautiful <3

[OrcrusDerious]

Just like your mom

[OrcrusDerious]

Hey now, calm down I didn't mean to offend you.

[Nemonstitch]

So many minuses, He was just complimenting your mothers.

[yeahtash]

great song. great vid. (L)

[namwok]

The bee is RZA of wu-tang who use the analogy of 'Killer Bee's' in a lot of their songs.

[sebastianave]

@namwok

I think Wu-Tang influences them quite a bit, think of N.A.S.A. - Money, could be a reference to Wu Tang - C.R.E.A.M.

[thaswasup]

i think the bee is supposed to be a latin king

[duffyissokwl]

wow i can't believe how good these are

i'm literally like :O:O

[CarLiTosWay117]

I agree! all there videos have a strong message

[namwok]

-187- cop code for a murder.

it's referenceing bloods and crips but the story/song is a romeo and juliette story, set on this backdrop of gangland LA.

beautiful art work and song. RZA KILLS IT. powerful stuff here.

[trentigalaxy]

i love the design of their videos

[3LS0L0rzan0]

Were can i download this?

[k0ekjebakker]

in the store.

[JohnJohnTheLepercaun]

sick fucking verse by RZA

[Rawbone73]

Man i love this beat

[rolotomassi78]

Vodka and Blue J?

[nodollarsign]

is this like...bloods and crips ? Pretty cute :)

[FarYEAR]

Maybe - when one of the birds died, there was a little tattoo sort of thing on his broken wing that said 187. That's kind of lame though - bloods and crips - I say let them kill each other. Then again, if you let evil happen... I wanna believe it's just about people as opposed to gangs, just being assholes and not unifying with eachother. Good song though - it just seems the video has a completely different meaning...?

[k0ekjebakker]

Well it is inded like romeo and juliet but not really bloods and crips.

[aquilifer10]

How can you claim that this isn't about bloods and crips? It's a song about California, with red and blue birds, urban violence and gang tattoos. Absurd, man.

[k0ekjebakker]

why do you care? why do I care? It's a waste of free time to just argue on youtube about things that aren't going to change ANYthing..

[mel408]

thats true

[tallyman14]

actualy now that ive read your comment it seems pretty plausible.

[link686]

i love the part where all the birds are arguing

[SuuzieQ]

who's doing the vocals?

[ArcticChiliPeppers]

Barbe Hatch, I think

[Maxxle3000]

barbie hatch =)

[michaellaguerre]

PROOF

[aiskef33]

nice song and video

[Maxxle3000]

nice pictures.. i like this style

[pawlzaz]

[12Mercedes12]

RZA part slashes asses!

[Sorteskurk]

it really grows on you, great great great tune!

[12Mercedes12]

uber

[dyikini]

killer toon

[Tazmaroonia]

when i played this video birds started coming to my window....

[TheArcticMonkeyz]

badass birds

[lovemebaby64]

come on down to my way of thinking ;)

[BoaRdRiiDeR]

dont ask me where ive been WAAAAAAYYYYYYYY down

love it

[nietsdoener]

The sound of the guitar must be much louder!

[HappyFuriousMonkey]

I think it's perfect like this.

[nietsdoener]

Guess so, but maybe just the guitar line, like a b-side or something.

Still love it btw, just a big fan of John Frusciante

[HappyFuriousMonkey]

So am I.

[clandskate1]

N.A.S.A. - Way Down (feat. RZA, Barbie Hatch & John Frusciante)

[amikotorin]

Great stuff, Getting the cd now, Looking forward to it.

[itsame32]

i like

[superuberjewbaby]

they used birds because thats what they refer themselves and other gang members as

"there's a blue bird on my shoulder so i had to knock his as to the floor and run his bitch ass over"

RBL posse

[castlesmade]

I'm really enjoying this. Must have.

[batterypack0973]

gnarls barkley genre?

[tytu124]

i don't get wat she saying

lol love how they used bairds

[familyjools]

'don't ask me wer i been', is all catched from the chorus, and ye man also like the birds aswell

[beeohhski]

this nasa cd is really good i havent heard a song i havent liked yet

[bradgreenan]

John Frusciante and RZA should collaborate more!! they are so sick together

[Lovemunk]

John Frusciante's guitar/synth work is fucking great

[CPU09]

Parts of it kind've remind me of Romeo and Juliet.

But I'm sure there's something more accurate than that

[AgentAlloy]

west side story

[beatfox8]

ha yea clips and the bloods to

[br0wnb3rry]

cripts

[jesusisdeadgetoverit]

its the eastside story featuring bloods and crips instead of romeo and juliet

[familyjools]

it makes sense aye. its so fucked tho, i mean, all this sensless killing

[emptyworld8]

that has to be..........deepest thing ive seen&herd in a long ass time so many lvls to understand it on

[bluecafe69]

Why doesn't it mention that RZA is in the track?

[ash1skater]

its wierd.. i always thought in the back of my head blue jays and cardinals would be together..AWESOME ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!

[stoogemaster7000]

pfft the only reason i got nasa's album was because of some of the featured artists like rza or chali 2na or ol dirty basterd R.I.P the beats are allright but the artists make the album
