  • god damn that bass sound is HUUUUUGE

  • thats why rage is awesome, they dont give a fuck what you tell them,theyre always gonna do their own thing

  • I love this, but the bass is toooo loud :/

  • Haahaaaaaaaa Zack what a fucking dude !

  • fuckin' amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • FUCK X FACTOR, FUCK SIMON COWELL, FUCK CENSORSHIP, FUCK THE GOVERNMENT. RAGE AGAINST THE FUCKING MACHINE!!!!!!!!!

  • YEAH!!!!!

  • shiiiiiit ..is this album really almost 20 years old??Damn, my days are counted. I wonder what a now-20 year old is thinking about them/that album

  • @cumshottah im 21 and they're still just as kick ass now, if not more b/c music has REALLY gone to shit

  • I was thinking would they be singing .....

  • what a fuckin great smooth live gig

  • A BBC spokesman said: "We had spoken to the band repeatedly beforehand and they had agreed not to swear."

    As the song was abruptly faded out during the controversial closing bars of the song, listeners heard presenter Shelagh Fogarty say, "get rid of it".

    "Well, we were expecting it and asked them not to do it and they did it anyway - so buy Joe's record."

    Did they really think they can tell RATM what to do? Haven't they heard the song?

  • the bass player,cant remember his name, has some nice ass ink!

  • Interesting acoustics...Still think this song shouldn't be played live in as small a place. The 93 live version, can't remember the festival name, is what you really want.

  • @Harryhoodz Pink Pop Festival?

  • @LeeboProductions yezzir, that shit gives me goosebumps every time

  • I remember listening to this live, middle of the day. My mum was appalled. Fucking brilliant!

  • @pasheeran Haha excellent, I'm pretty sure it was like half eight in the morning or something actually, but wonderful nonetheless. The free show they did in celebration was great too :)

  • i love rage <3

  • Rap Metal? Nope.

  • @dodabender yep ;)

  • "Let's tell Rage Against the Machine what to do."

    - BBC

  • Its a shame how Tim and Brad were ready to say something, but never got the chance to.

  • What do you guys think of Simon Cowell?

  • that radio presenter is a dick lol

  • I love it, BBC tells Zach to not say 'Fuck you I won't do what you tell me', and he thinks about it... And then he decides "Fuck them, I wont do what they tell me". Beautiful.

  • the bass sounds sexy

  • >>>>>3:55 start button <<<<<<<<<

  • not a single fuck was given that day

  • 1.12, "you said it, not me dude"

  • I think Zak was told not to sing the "fuck you I won't do what you tell me” lyrics by the BBC. Did they actually think he wouldn't? They just don't get it do they.

  • @montife he won't do what they tell him :)

  • MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

  • Happy christmas everyone.

  • 3:50 to avoid a revolutionary band talking that you'd be a fool to miss.

  • 3:50 To hear the song

  • NIRVANA FOR NO. 1

  • FACEBOOK DOT COME SLASH NIRVANA FOR CHRISTMAS NO.1

  • They were selected for the band name only. The song and its message were irrelevant. Repeating the word FUCK over and over again is not a message. It's infantile and 40 years out of date. At least Simon Cowell is aware he has a massive ego and at least he can claim to be current. Rage against the Machine appear to think they were carefully selected. They weren't. They are misguided, out of date and their message is stale. The music wasn't the message. The act of defiance was the message.

  • @spammyuk no their message is that you shouldnt let simon cowell brainwash u and have this crap music used to make money.

    shows alot about you that you would protect simon cowell, the msg of this song is fuck you to the system and fuck u i wont do what they tell me. meaning that pop music and society makes u believe that one sound is the way it should be. cheryl cole is a prime example. no talent, judges a singing show yet she mimes on stage. wow. at least these guys make "real music"

  • @jonthedonable I did not protect Simon Cowell. One system asks us to buy Simon Cowell's music, another asks us to buy Rage's music as a "message" song. The only way to FUCK with system is to buy music because it warrants listening to. I would have to be a complete retard to buy a piece of music which aims to rebel against a system that demands we buy music. The irony is incredible. In terms of music alone, we are in agreement. Strange that you should attack me!

  • @spammyuk the difference is that these people make music from their heart, not simply to make it for money making alone. how can a band like this be around for so long and still be able to get an old song to no1 if they are so crap? no one whos ever came from any talent show has made it, not 1. look at bands like acdc, not much heard on mainstream radio yet a couple of years ago they filled stadiums on their tour at 60+yo. now that is what real music is and real fans follow them no matter what.

  • @spammyuk i also dont see how rage against the machine are though, this was a purpose jjust to prove a point and show that by getting together we can topple the bullshit of x factor. that was it really, its an older song which ive always liked and personally get what they are saying. its good, they are asking people to get this song for a good cause, plus they were donating profits to charity. says alot about them.

  • Comment removed

  • @spammyuk name one respected musician to ever come out of x factor or pop idol???

    lol every year the last one is forgot about and every year the song will be no1, because you all get brainwashed and buy it cos u get sucked into this whole manipulitave system we live in. these guys have more talent in one members pinky than anyone who has ever came out of a live talent show. you are a joke. i feel sorry for you so much that you cant see it.

  • @jonthedonable I'm afraid you have made lots of assumptions about what I said and you have made all the wrong assumptions. I think every bit of music Simon Cowell has ever produced is complete and utter shit. I think that Rage's music is great, and this song is amazing. The musicality is brilliant. Re-read by posts, you will not find me make any positive statement about Simon Cowell or the music he has inspired. I made no comment on my appreciation of Rage's music.

  • @spammyuk no, i think u said about them being picked for their name only was wrong, you said at least simon cowell knows hes arrogant and has a huge ego. that comment does not make sense, its like saying its ok for a killer to kill if he knows what he is doing, plus the fact that the msg of this song is a fuck you, to the system in general, so it was used for the purpose of going against the system or in other words, simon cowell manipulating the country to make money.

  • @spammyuk you, sir are an idiot. the whole message of the song is fuck the system.

    really quite difficult to work out, wasn't it?

  • lets get christmasy

  • NOW HELP NIRVANA FOR NO. 1 THIS YEAR!!! GET RID OF THE X FACTOR BULLSHIT ONCE AGAIN!!!

  • @smelliott725 lol RATM > Nirvana

  • @domeisher lets not get into that bro

  • @smelliott725 how does that work, what can I do for the cause?

  • @smelliott725 as much as I love Nirvana. They arent even close to being in RATM's league, skill wise, and creatively.

  • Whoever was working sound for this sure sucks dick. The mix on Zack's vocals is muddy and disgusting, and not in a good way like the bass tone; in a bad way as in it sounds shitty,

  • @KingZerxst its almost like someone wanted it to sound all grungy... but i swear even grunge isnt that grungy haha

  • @Xenitic Yeah, it's just terrible hahah

  • fantastic performance I just died a little in seeing this

  • the end is funny when tom is going wild and spinning :) RAGE!!!!!

  • When he finally said "FUCK YOU I WON'T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME"

    I was like...FUCK FINALLY!!!

  • WARRIORS PREPARE FOR BATTLE!!!!!!!

  • Tom really does sound like Bryan.......lol! That's Good!!!!!! I RAGE Against The Machine of Self Righteous Pharisees as a Warrior For Christ. I Love this Band, I love this song....and this is an Awesome live Performance! We angels Of light are here....Watchout illuminati....The Lord Jesus is Exposing you .....! STAY TUNED!!!!!!! check it all out at Verdictthewise channel on you tube.......and check out the site link on there! Join the Revolution! May God Bless you all and in Jesus Christ's name

  • ive seen an older version and a newer version and this on sounds like he been on drugs for a long time still a good song though

  • Auugh! I clicked dislike by accident but then clicked like literally a second later! Hope it still counts! D:

  • I wanna hear what TimBob and Brad have to say

  • sounds so dry in this studio!

  • damn that was tight , better than 93 live

  • @TheAgentAssassin Your right that was damn tightly played.

  • I love the way the radio people tell him not to swear,

    Then bang FUCK YOU I WONT DO WHAT YOU TELL ME

    And swears

  • @Jimmybrown14 The timing was superb. Letting them think he was playing along until the big finish.

  • 8:31 ESA ES PARA VOCE

  • Needs more cowbell. Actually, nah, it rocks without it.

  • @weebruceymctaylor nope, cowbell needs more rage.

  • Best Christmas song!

  • tom deserves his character in gh!

  • Love the guy in the background laughing at 2:04

  • I want Tim's overdrive!

  • Tom Morello should be ruler of everything. 

  • PREACH THE GOSPEL MORELLO!

  • Rage Against the Machine. Not giving a SINGLE FUCK since 1991!

  • Tom Morello for president

  • Tom Morello is so well spoken. Gahhhh.

  • God, the mix is so dry. Awsome performance regardless

  • i have the same bass, its shit

  • what a badass 

  • its 2011 and i'm still watching it, remember too check facebook for Nivana being number 1 this year!

  • I be playing this shit hardcore on my acoustic guitar!!! Lol

  • Damn, Morello has a fantastic voice. If he wasn't so amazing on guitar he would be a great DJ or podcaster :)

  • @Orangemongoose1 he is a DJ.... RATM's DJ XD

    i remebr Zack said on morellos solo last year "GIVE IT UP FOR MY DJ TOM MORELLO!"

  • God. They some of the nicest speaking voices I've ever heard

  • lol, jingle bells hi-hat

  • I grew up with this song. Having finaly listend to the words, whilst not getting neck ache moshing along or getting smashed, i will get rid of it now. never mosh again to its rasicst tune. *those that die are justifed, they carry the badge, there the chossen whites" really? ok. keep your bullshit in the states

  • @dourdog you understand it's a song against racism right? It is a song about bigotry. the 'burn crosses' line refers to a ritual performed by the anti-color radical group the Ku-Klux Clan. this also explains the 'chosen whites' part. You should do some research before you knock down this great of a tune by taking one lyric in it's most literal sense.

  • @dourdog And here I thought that only Americans were stupid enough to COMPLETELY miss the point of a song based on taking a bitter, sarcastic lyric at face value.

  • @dourdog As amaxlazer said, this is a song against racism. Zack de la Rocha is not white. Why would he contribute to a song about white supremacy? This is a politically influenced band that fights for human rights. You clearly know nothing about them.

  • that hihat sound like shitt!! someone fix it

    but the whole band is great oh yea!

  • I HATE SIMON COWELL!!!!!!!!

  • the bass sound look like BANG BANG BANANANG BANANANBANG

  • damn everybody has grown up and still have the spirit no matter their age! they were true !! and they still are!! RATM RULES!!

  • I am 25 years old and have been a musician for half my life now. I have played in many bands, played across the country (UK) and a few times overseas. I have heard thousands of bands of many genres. In all that time, no band I've ever heard has caused me such excitement, sent such a chill down my spine as RATM.

  • are liberteis are being takin away in the name of freedom. are constitution is now a joke in the eyes of the u.s. gov.! its time to take the power back!! we need to unite against the big banks, oil comp.s,bottle water comp.s, and F.D.A.! if you think you have a say in what we can eat drink or say in public, you are living under a very sad rock! WE GOTTA TAKE THE POWER BACK!

  • 69 people did what they were told.

  • Brilliant chemistry. Brilliant performance. Brilliant song. Fuck the mainstream manufactured music and fuck Simon Cowell.

  • at 8:52 tom reminded me the star wars kid

  • 68 people don't like this song.

  • Morello sounds like Bryan from family guy

  • lolz! so true

  • @grupedazai you mean Bryan sounds like Morello?

  • I love, LOVE Tim's tattoos! 

  • HELL YEAH ZACK!!!

  • Does anyone else see the stupidity of asking a band who's lyrics are "Fuck you I wont do what you tell me" not to swear? :)

  • tom morello is amazing! everything they said was so so true!! "profited greatly by humiliating people" is the best way to sum up simon cowell! he is the anti christ! lol

  • I always have to head bang in my chair when i listen to this!

  • BBC: NO, you cant yell "fuck you" on TV

    Zach: Ok *troll face*

  • @28dialtoes it wasnt on tv u faggot! it was a video recording! get over it, and stop being such a sensitive pussy, its only cos u have nothing legit to say to put down these true artists, tom morello has more intelligence and talent in his left pinky than everyone the x factor has ever produced all added together

  • @jonthedonable lol?

  • @28dialtoes lol ITS TRUE!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • CLASS. FUCK XFACTOR.

  • Fuck the world system!

  • Erm, the bassist looks like he wants to murder someone.. still epic bassline though!

  • Speaking of Rage Against The Machine having the no. 1 Christmas song, it would be nice to organize something like that this time, too. Maybe RATM again, maybe someone else (dunno, Dead Kennedys, Napalm Death, whoever).

    It was a nice action and I'd gladly support something like that again...

  • @Tehstroyer - Nah, it's been done now man, doing it again so soon would make people seem like hypocrites considering it was all about trying to stop the X Factor's monoply on the xmas number 1

  • lol @ cabal

  • GETRIDOFIT!

  • Speak up mate.

  • Tom Morello sounds like Seth Macfarlane!

  • Music starts at 3:57!

  • @drumsmetalheavy11 WTF?? What about listen to what people have to say? music has more meaning than bang your head, you know? through the music you can send a really good message like these guys do

  • SO MUCH DISTORTION ON THE BASS

  • Keep on keeping on :)

  • the world is in dire need of new material by rage against the machine. the world screams ""revolution now!" & r.a.t.m. are able to give us the most perfect sound & content to support this need.
