  • Lol. Yes, I know the Dead Kennedys wrote it. I was being sarcastic, which I guess is sometimes hard to convey in text even when it sounds sarcastic in your head.

  • dead kennedys holiday in cambodia is the best and the foo fighters and serj did good but i have to stick with the original o and its true that the dead kennedys wrote it

  • If you think Dead Kennedy's or Jello Biafro is a racist you need to do your research. He's one of the most liberal musicians I've ever read about.

  • Absolutely right, bigdogayyoub. By the way everyone, the Dead Kennedys had a black drummer. Still racist?

  • Serj tankian feat foo fighters in this song is WAY better

  • I'm sure Serj is probably your hero, but I bet he didn't write this. In fact, I think it's safe to say The Foo Fighters didn't either. I'm sure if you asked either of them, they would tell you they like this song.(that's why they did it). Your comment makes it sound like you believe the opposite, and I'm sure that's not what you meant. Don't state it as a fact. Instead..."I like the Serj feat. Foo Fighters version of this way better."

  • no i meant this is better than the original one..

  • i mean i kno this band wrote it i just like the serj one better

  • that's cool mattman, I just gave you a hard time because people post so quickly and without care. Don't they know this is read by thousands if not millions of people! By the way, I think this version is waaay better. Look at the lame foo crowd in the Serj video too, they don't even get it!

  • So you been to school For a year or two And you know youve seen it all In daddys car Thinkin youll go far Back east your type dont crawl Play ethnicky jazz To parade your snazz On your five grand stereo Braggin that you know How the niggers feel cold And the slums got so much soul the person going to school thinks of blacks as niggers.
  • How is it the mere word "nigger" is racist? What about context? Christ, it doesn't make sense. If you were to say "he sounds like a nigger", that'd be racist but in the context of the song it's satire

  • lol guys.. DK isn't racist band, they even have a song called ''nazi punks fuck off''. They don't ment to be rasict in this song.

    AWESOME!

  • pol pot and mao did it anal behind the lenin statue in minsk once.

  • If you would understand the sentence you'd notice that they criticise the kid.

    "Braggin that you know,how the niggers feel cold"

    Niggers isn't racist at all aslong as you don't use it in a racist way.

    Black people say it to eachother without any bad sense, probably because of somekind of image, but still "nigger" isn't really racist anymore.

  • i completely agree

  • One of the band members was a black guy so it must of been alright to him i guess.

  • fucking awesome band.

  • this song is awesome on guitar hero but if i knew how to play it on my real guitar i would fucking shred so hard!

  • a little racey isn't it?

  • i don't give a shit it isn't called "PERFECT QUALITY MUSIC HERO" it called fucking GUITAR hero i don't care if he sounds like a nigger

  • fuck you your a fucking cocksucking wetback bitch you stupid nazi jew

  • are you retarded? a nazi jew? learn your stuff fuck head

  • nazi jew or jew nazi - he probably means the jews who turned the nazi way by committing war crimes by indiscriminantly killing people for 60 plus years!

    otherwise it doesnt make sense in this context!

  • you are so smart

  • what the fuck was that is that seriously what you have to say? just fucking shut up asshole not my fault your to poor to afford a GAME

    PS: Nazi Jew? go back to the fucking fifth grade

  • FUCKIN ROCK ON SUCKERS !!!

  • the intro is awesome!!

  • Yeah!!

  • OMG!! This song is nazi!

  • how?

  • Look : second verse : Play ethnicky jazz

    To parade your snazz

    On your five grand stereo

    Braggin that you know

    How the NIGGERS feel cold

    And the slums got so much soul

  • So? Thats not nazi...

    thats rasict....

  • ...You really don't understand the term 'social commentary' or 'satire' do you?

  • awesome song with an awesome meaning

  • jello is me

  • thank god im canadian.

  • fuck Pol Pot.. and Zigbiniew brzezinski(obama)[2]

  • yeahhhhhhhhh fuckin love this song! go jello!

  • ни чо из коментоф не понял(но понял про наших), на всякий случай сами пошли нахуй.DK rulleezzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!

  • Oh and ronnie raygun, he was a creepy sob. You notice how they all are christian, but their church allmost seems like a "attachment" or some kind of little "badge" while nothing that comes out of their mouth seems even remotely connected with the teachings or philosophies of christ in any way shape or imaginable form. They also set these little mock democracies up and laugh with glee when they crumble. Is the kremlin being controlled to?

  • Yeah, I definitely don't care for Ronald Reagan, or Bush. Nor do I care for Vladimir Putin or Dimitri. Barack Obama is at least an improvement. But I agree with you, the US and Russia/USSR have both made foolish and cruel choices in their past, and probably will continue to do so.

  • The USA have had good presidents and bad, hero`s and villains. But this Bush sr, Bush jr, high class lawers with billions and when you see footage of someone visiting the ranch the only family we see are very simple red necks with shot guns. Let us not discount something wierd is going on with the usa. Alien sitings, reports skyrocketing, leaders honestly seeming totaly inhuman, new world order, is it all just fabricated? I am not saying they are aliens, but influenced maybe>

  • ^^^^^^

    That's why I believe 1/4 of American's are retarded.

  • It really just PISSES me off that so many ignorant idiots get the chance to combine all communists into one category. Hell, the Americans probably think THEY'RE the ones that stopped Pol Pot. pfft.

  • fuck Pol Pot.. and Zigbiniew brzezinski(obama)

  • It's hard to explain how awesome playing this on guitar hero is.

  • fuck you. play a real guitar.

  • amen to that

  • Fuck you, pick a fight in real life not one the internet.

  • Sorry guitar hero fan boy. truelly sorry that you wasted £50 on a pile of shit. sorry.

  • nobody cares about you.

  • lol

  • anarchy ftw!

  • for the world?

  • beleiving anarchy would actually work is just plain stupid.

  • retrac676 its not as easy as it sounds they use the police to keep people in line and order plus many other ways to keep controll yes our goverment is inhuman but its not that they dont care its that their working extremely hard to keep our system alive which is pointless thats why we need a true goverment where the people come together to make life better now thats goverment ours isnt ours is corrupt once goverments gone then we can make life better and beautiful

  • @ anticonformist777

    is it ok if i use you quote as lyrics in a song that im going to be working on?

  • god i wish i didnt live in this little hick town and lived were i could go to a show

  • this game was cool in gh but i lerned it b4 i just relized it was there today

  • Star Belly Sneech the sneechis is a dr sues move with star belly sneechis and plan belly sneechis who fight cause of that what the fuck do thus dr sues bird even have to do with this song and why are they michoned in it any way

  • If the goverment really cared about the suffering people in other countries they would send aid to people who need it and if the area is hostile they would gaurd the supplies they need to get their prioritys straightend out

  • lol and who wld like to get shot for some hungry apes?! u volunteer? enjoy yr dead body gettin looted u stupid

  • Yeah i would volunteer cause i care about people i realize that w/out the help of others people will die because the rest of the world is to damn ignorant

  • well, we do.

    That's the problem.

    Screw them, if they can't stand up for themselves why should we pay our soldiers lives for them?

  • Such a classic punk song. If you watch a video of the DK's, the audience is almost exclusively males. Didn't women like punk?

  • Yes, my good friend and {ex} wife.

  • Yes, my good friend and {ex} wife. ;]

  • Of course...but men tend to beat up women and men alike....

  • Women do that also....

  • Best... Intro... Ever...

  • What exactly wher the dead kendys Philosophy?

  • who or what is a pol pot?

  • Pol Pot was a dictator in Cambodia and was known for his brutality and cruelty.

  • pol pot is a cambodian dictator

  • i loved this song on guitar hero haha

  • im surprised to see actual intellectual conversation going on here instead of just "Daed Keddenys!! heck yess Punx rawk not daed!!"

    thanks.

  • I want to have an intellectual conversation with you.

  • would you really? on what topic? message me if you're legitmatly interested.. theres far too many comments on this video

  • Man DK just gets better and better as years go by.

  • Are you serious? Ever since the original break-up, lawsuit of Jello Biafra, and the exploatation of what's left of Dead Kennedys "image" and music by the original band members... I'd say things have turned out for the worse....

  • I meant their "music" gets better as years go by. Late 70s/early 80s were like late 60s/early 70s where pop musical genius just exploded. However once that time passes they just cannot rekindle the old genius.

  • DK has gotten far worse after the addition of Skip to the band. They're even on a hiatus because Klaus had health problems, and Skip is breaking away and starting a new band with Ray and DH. All this following the break-up of the original band members and a lawsuit of the original frontman.

    Dead Kennedys do not get better as the years go by, the problems keep adding up against them.

  • DK'S FOR  LIFE

  • Pol Pot!

  • why don't people see the two parties as the twoheaded monster they both really are? the left is a slicker version of the right, just as evil, just as bent on killing your family after milking it for money, but craftier than the right.

  • very tru, but if u HAD 2 choose...

  • at least the right lets you have a gun, man

  • America is one of the richest countries in the world, just cause they contribute more per head of population, which is what I gather you're saying, does not make them the most charitable, it just means richer countries donate more... I can't believe I even had to explain that.

  • Are you sure about that? Do people in Dubai, for instance, where there's lots of wealth amongst a small populace, really donate more per person to charity than America? Hell, per person, does Canada or the UK give as much to charity? I don't think so, but I could be wrong. Remember, money taken from you in taxes doesn't count as charity - it's not voluntary. I reference - specifically - individual charitable donations.

  • There are many countries who can't afford to give any money at all because of their current regime and total poverty they face. The US and countries fortunate like them are privilieged to be fortunate enough to have spare money to donate.

    We all know what the sheiks in dubai like spending money on and its not charity.

  • Aye, like Burma or Sudan? I do really feel sorry for them. What really sucks is that, were you to try to donate or send aid, it'd get snatched up by some warlord or dictator before it reaches the people. :(

  • btw what does "pol pot" mean?

  • You mean 'who' was Pol pot. wikipedia him.

  • OH! I actually never bothered looking up the meaning to this song. Ha now i understand

  • he was a very cruel dictator who killed millions!!

  • why does this version sound different than the one on "give me convinience or give me death". California uber alles sounds different too. Im confused... did they do two studio recordings?

  • uhh cant u guys talk about the music

  • We can talk about that too, but there's plenty of room on this page for all sorts of discussion. Feel free to participate or not participate in the socioeconomics talk. :)

  • musicpluspictures are u not sitting there laffing at all these people??

    tbh i think he just put the song on utube so that people could listen to a good song not 4 them to hav a political debate about!! lol

    anyways thatnks 4 putting the song on!!

  • really, grow some fuckin brains and just enjoy DK

  • Wow.

  • shut up tevez

  • i am willing to bet you live in some republic type of government.... so shut the fuck up

  • honey.. let's highlight this: YOU are the one living in USA, really think Obama is oh-so radical? "Think" again (or at least try to)

    My current government is faaaaaar from republican, and even though I dislike it's party, it's from left... so you can bet anything, any time you want: I am willing to do so.

    I'm from South America, and I've seen all in terms of politics... heck, I even live it. Obviously unlike you, you do appear, and I am willing to bet, that you're an ignorant ass.

  • i am not democrat so please dont put me in that kind of party. and i am not an obama supporter...and no im not an ignorant ass but when you judge my knowledge of politics just becasue i live in the US...wouldnt that make you the ignorant ass???

  • really, save me up your "oh, you just wouldnt uderstand how harsh we live" comments...

    you wouldnt survive here a day... neither in cambodia back in the days...

    So i recommend you shut the fuckin hell up... and if this contributes in the process of you shutting up: is what Jello would've wanted =)

  • este compadre sabe de lo ke habla!

  • Actually, I'm proud to be a Libertarian. The Libertarian Party is America's biggest third party, and we have some really, really good ideas. They'll catch on soon enough.

  • actually i think it goes "play your sneaky jazz" not "ethnicky jazz" *-)

  • nope it is ethnicky jazz

  • Great song and awesome bloody band!

  • This song is "Holidays In The Sun" by the Sex Pistols taken to an unbearable conclusion. British punk groups never went as far as the DK's did.

  • pure racist this song that see is a americain on 80's

  • Oh god, no offense, but this version is horrible in my eyes. Like it cleaner.

  • Been listening since the mid / early 80's and I still love it. This is punk music. Todays 'punk' is not.

  • from what ive read pol pot sounds like an idiot

  • "idiot" is a mild term to use...

  • was he worsse than hitler

  • I dont think you should compare Pol Pot and Hitler.. It is two different things.

    When it comes Hitler and what he have done.. Well, there are people out there who have killed many many more people, but what hitler done was so terrible (and got so much attantion) because he targeted a group.

  • oh, ok

  • Both were despots. Wake up and smell death.

    Its a song nothing else. Go back to Uni

  • its a black sabbath riff

  • Shit, what about what he's still doing to OUR country?!!

  • What the hell!!!!

    What the hell!!!!

    thats a guit song!?!

  • Pol Pot was a commie-nazi piece of shit.

  • u can't be commie-nazi, two diff spectrums, commie is better...but yur right, wish he could be tortured a million times alive for what his "govn't" did. Jello for President.

  • What's the difference, besides semantics? Either way, you're expendable in the eyes of the govt. Give me Liberty, or give me death!

  • Or as seen in the eyes of the modern day lazy man,

    "Give me convenience or give me death."

  • That'd be an awesome name for a... Oh wait..

  • you dont know what the hell your talking about if you call someone a 'commie nazi' communism is way different than facism.... do a little research buddy...dont get all your stuff from wikipedia

  • They're both collectivist philosophies, both variants on Socialism. They both condone unlimited govt. control, the use of force on the citizenry, a minimum of personal freedom, and no individual rights for citizens. Both Communism and Fascism result in you, the individual, being sacrificed to the state. I've done LOTS of homework. 'Left vs Right wing' is a lie. The real opposition is Liberty versus Statism, and Communism and Fascism are Statist ideas. I like individualism and personal freedom.

  • Seriously, they might have fought in WWII, but sit down and compare the philosophies as to what the function of government is, what the role of the citizen is, control of means of production (by elites in both cases, communism says the people should control production, but that never happens - whoever has the most guns does), the function of Capital, and the philosophical basis of both ideas - you'll find that the differences are cosmetic, at best. Individual Liberty FTW!!1!

  • when you compared facism to communism there you used marxism....what about the real type of communism.... marxism is only a government to achieve total communism.... facist still believed in private property while communism highly opposes private property.... facist also believed in a class system....in nazi germany if you were a doctor you would get higher wages than a janitor...but in marxism communism you get paid the same...

  • you abiously know nothing about marx communism or his works, so shut your fuckin mouth

  • yes i do...you dont know crap about me so shut the fuck up... and i am against marx type of communism because it is always governed by a totaltarian group or person...

  • That's the way that any type of collectivist socioeconomic works. Collectivism denies and assaults every basic social and material need of individual men and women, and results in nothing but tyranny and destruction. Utopia will never happen. It can't. Your idea of Utopia is different from mine, and hell, a family of four can't even agree on what's for dinner. So, why not simply let people be as free as possible, make their own choices, live their lives as they wish and deal with whom they wish?

  • i totally agree with letting the people as free as possible and making their own choices but marxism wont do that....in theory marxism is only supposed to be a temporary so in the end the marixist state would turn to a true form of communism...a classless society...but people are too corrupt to do that

  • Well.. I don't know if 'corrupt' is the right term. Check it out, in the USSR, a doctor or a nuclear physicist made the same as a broom pusher. That's hardly fair. A doctor or a scientist has to work a lot harder to get to that profession. A man has to be rewarded for his work. There will always be classes. What differs is how they get there - meritocracy, or brutality. I prefer meritocracy, which is what happens with real free markets, with free people.

  • ugh. wow. fair? a broom pusher, if you mean a janitor, does alot harder in the means of manual labor then say a nuclear physicist. a doctor and physicist simply have a different set of skills than a cleaner, and if they werent corrupt materialist assholes, would learn to live with the money they get. sadly, most people in our country are so materialist, they would die unless they replaced their cell phone every year. meritocracy/brutality is bullshit. a janitor never killed anyone for his job.

  • You know, I've been a broom pusher before, and now, I work in a field that did require some college, some portfolio building and some skill development, and I deserve far more pay doing what I do now than I did when I was waxing floors. It's hardly bullshit. The standard of living that we enjoy now is due to the effort of man's mind, not muscular motions. Even the food you eat requires some level of skill to produce. The root of industry is man's mind, and should be rewarded in kind.

  • No, a janitor probably hasn't killed anyone for his job, that's not the point. The point is, there are two ways to treat people - as customers/employees, or as slaves/subjects. I choose the former. You can deal with people by trading values for mutual benefit, or with whips and guns. I choose the former. You can engage in reasoned commerce, or subjugation and plunder. I choose the former. What's better - the few plundering the many, everyone plundering everyone, or no one plundering anyone?

  • yes corrupt...if stalin killing millions of his people isnt corrupt...i dont know what is....his whole point in taking over russia was to make russia better....which he did economiclly but he didnt make lives better for the people. russia was on its way to a classless society when russia was a powerhouse but stalin liked the power too much. i dont believe in communism at all because it doesnt work...

  • Lenin didn't care for Stalin, Trotsky didn't, Khruschev didn't, etc. Stalin is a useless idiot, associated with communism only in word. And for all the people judging Communism based on Cambodia; don't. Pro-Soviet Vietnam would later go to WAR with Cambodia to stop the genocide, while the United States fucking SUPPORTED Cambodia. Don't believe me? Look it up. There are countless heroic and righteous communists, and not all of the USSR's history was bad. The people of Russia prefer it, generally.

  • yeah the USA and Russia have made good choices and bad choices. However the usa (bush sr admin) did send that biologist with the last name Panic to Bosnia, where he became milosevics right hand man, and three years later, the genocide and rape camps started, then the usa went in and cleaned it all up, and now they have a country in eastern europe. That is how the new world order operates. Trick them into loyalty by setting up the situation.

  • yes but no...every russian communist leader was always wanting power because they didnt change the type of government from marxist communism to true communism....i'll tell you why they did change it too...so they dont lose power...the reason why the russian people still wanted communism is because they were led to believe that there would be a classless society in russia but it didnt happen because russian communist leaders didnt want to lose their power...corrupt...

  • russia woulda worked if lennin was truly respected but then in came stalin and he really fucked it up

  • lenin was fucking awesome but Stalin fucked everything I wish Trotsky put a fucking cap in his head

  • How? Stalin actually industrialized the Soviet Union?

  • Mainly due to the fact of how many people he had executed (more than hitler by far) and all his other bull shit.

  • but hitler didnt kill his own kind so it was worse, thats how most ppl see it

  • Hitler also had his 'own' people killed. He had kids with mental disabbilitys killed so because the Arische race had to be perfect.

  • ya but at the expense of millions of civilians and he basically destroyed the military in the purges

  • word

  • Whats happen to the crippled or disabled in a meritocracy? There's no welfare, no government aid, are they left to starve?

  • charities, philanthropists, individual donors, and the family of the disabled.

  • Why would there be a charity in a meritocracy? You get wat you earn. The family has to fend for itself, and nobody can spare anything.

  • That's nonsense. Liberty means that if you want to help, no one should be able to stop you, and if you don't want to help, no one should be able to force you. It means that people are free to make what contracts they will between one another. I fend for myself, and do just fine - so, should a cause arise that I find donation worthy, I give to it. It's my money. I'll hand it out if I want to! Now, when I take YOUR money and give it out, then there's a problem.

  • Are you even aware there are other countries that don't have as much freedom as America or countries that don't have as much money to donate as America? Do i have to say the same thing again? Some countries have as much of a population as America but less money per head of population is that so hard to comprehend?

  • I'm quite aware. I also really dig a non-interventionist foreign policy, and realize that there's precious little I can do about conditions in other lands. Forgive my being focused on America, but if Liberty dies here than it's gone for good. In these 'other countries' - China, for instance, there's already a total redistribution of wealth - so, very little charity. There's a great deal of charity in, for instance, India, where people enjoy a greater deal of economic freedom.

  • I hate when people feel the need to tell everyone about their charity contributions, so I gave you the thumbs down, just so it's not any secret.

  • Aw, thanks, sugar. I'll make it up to you by punching a bell ringer in the face later today. :lol:

  • bien ska la rola esta vergas

  • if ur bein serios go fuck urself

    if your trying to make a joke ur not very funny

  • hurrrr durrrrrr

    dey tuk dat der gullible out der dictionary

  • assfuck he killed over 1 million people and you say he's nice...damn your a stupid ass

  • augh! augh! paleface!

  • fuck nue dat fuck you and pol pot

  • This song was very political and socially relevant when it came out. The world knew Pol Pot was killing millions of civilians but only our former enemies the Vietnamese did anything about it.

    I still love DK after all those years.

  • the dead kennedys shit on all you fuckers

  • dude its about showing the differences between a fat society like america where people get what they want for little to cambodia where it is a shithole.

    people in rich societys should try living in a place with nothing under a dictatorship and experience the differences. listen to the lyrics its self explanatory.

    try cambodia instead of cancun especialy back when this wa released

  • still, the Offsprings are still good. But they can't beat DK

  • These guys make The Offsprings a bunch of pussies.

  • <3.

  • good song. hell yes
