Flaming Lips & Cat Power- War Pigs (Cover)

[RisingRedLung]

Cat Power...what an embarrassment.

[PawGoher]

AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[badran106]

why you let this girl make you a fool??if she did not pract the song why you let her go on stage??

[catastrophuc]

how did a talented soulster like Cat Power manage to make a raging Black Sabath rant on war sound like a drunk Hannah Montana cut? Everything else about this was great

[SuperRARRR]

please. i don't think she made it any worse than if she wasn't there. they all sucked.

[ke3wh]

chick sucked, rest was cool

[GhostDistortion]

I generally like Cat Power, but one thing musicians have to understand...if you can't do the song justice then don't come off all "willy nilly" and off key and then try to make it sound good. This song is not for everyone. Thanks for playing a fantastic tune and trying to have a good time with it, but please don't ever let anyone hear it. People don't judge you by the music you play, they judge you by the music you let them hear.

[occams99]

Does this chick think she's at girl scout camp? I feel like reconfiguring the DonnaFilter. At 4:04 or thereabouts even Coyne admits defeat.

[MissDandyDane]

I love cat, but i cant help but wonder how much she paid these poor, poor, unfortunate souls to let her perform with them....:c

[zat1]

I like Cat Power... but here... geeez... fuck you Cat...

[justfromg]

Cat Power's vocals on this really did suck ass; she sounds like a 3rd rate Kim Gordon

[tzempelg]

FAIL. can;t someone behead the girl? ozzy must eat at least 15 bats to get over this hoooorrible cover! thumbs down dude

[JustinRTime]

I want to shoot everyone who says Cat Power sucks :)

[0wadeelf0]

@JustinRTime cat power sucks

[occams99]

@JustinRTime You'd better have a lot of ammo.

[johnz70]

Cat Power was terrible on that!!

[SalamiKing7]

Just horrible

[EastCoastGuitarist]

Cat Power totally ruins it, she is just painful to listen to. What a disappointment. 

[megadethrulez1]

matthew mcconaughey?

[bullikins]

THIS SUUUUUUCKS BAD CAT POWER<A JOKE

[IdoApu2]

Why am I sure she's never heard the song before?

[wunderbratsche]

Cat power fucking sucks.

[ovelonse]

Cat sucks shoot up bitch

[TheManolakis]

cat power= overrated hack

[CobaltNight]

Terrible.

[JibadeauxFox]

Sexiest Woman Alive and Drozd is a god amongst men.

[Metalmachinecrush]

Drummer was spot on amazing.

[boomboomsniffsniff]

I watched this on Austin City Limits when I was little before I got into metal. I gotta say it scared the living shit outta me.

[VanShakes]

how dare you talk to Cat Power like that!! @baraka1408

[Aghamorad]

I love both The Flaming Lips and Cat Power, but ouch.

[baraka1408]

Shut that chick up... Wayne... do your thing!

[scottishmcmillan]

Almost gave Cat Power credit for trying, but she just failed a bit too much on a stage like that one. She does her thing, but she doesn't do someone else's so well...

[scottishmcmillan]

[MightySaturn5]

thats some grungitta grit ridiculous barfington Wellington singing...someone ought to take a Fleenda Granshmeyer 2500 and cut their lawn-stage with it because that version was like brand new fresh, warm still steaming olive green peanut riddled lion shit being brought out by dog sled in stacked 5 lb buckets that are always teetering and threatening to fall over because the dogs are fed a steady diet of caffinated weinershnitzels which causes them to Morse code bark "this version rrrrots"

[spin72]

she blew it

[negrinho]

The drummer is incredible and the guitar is fantastic, but the vocals...

I love Chan but she doesn't even try to sing.

[DebasedGuy]

Chan's so wasted

[DebasedGuy]

Chan is so wasted

[iffyfart]

Wrong so wrong

[sternumagnum]

Absolutely brilliant combination - plus she's off key and probably drunk (WGAF?)

[Ranglin9]

Too much vocal fuc*ing around here, SING THE FUC$ING SONG! I like Cat Power and Flaming Lips but this is like a high school garage party with a fuc*ed up cover band hacking up songs. 

[Ningirsutyr]

@Ranglin9 Especially the fact that Cat Power isn't making any veritable effort to sing the song right is just lamentable!

[ChernobylTaco]

This is why Kliph is one of my favorite drummers.

[ThisisAnalia]

amazing, inspiring, moving, beautiful, etc....

[kjcraft]

This clip reminds me of why I loathe Cat Power.

[verkpunk]

Well apparently the FL are not fans of the war. I guess they are fans of brutal dictatorships and oppressive religious regimes doing the killing instead.

[Bcasey11]

@verkpunk shut the fuck up dude, you took this opportunity to say shit like that, go watch cnn and fox and vote for war

[verkpunk]

@Bcasey11 was that an argument, or were you just pissed because I responded to an overt video againt US wars?? And I fought in the war boy, so my reliance on mainstream media is not really necessary.

[wtficantgetanamewtf]

@verkpunk You know well and good that this war was about oil and nothing else. George W. Bush could have given two shits if he freed the Iraqis and they just used WMDs as an excuse to go in there. Cause they found them right? Seriously the Iraq War is/was a fucking joke we didn't need to be there the terrorists who attack the Twin Towers were funded by Saudi Arabia so the Iraq War was about oil and nothing more. Anyways its not our job to police the fucking world.

[Ranglin9]

@wtficantgetanamewtf  get a life asshole

[wtficantgetanamewtf]

@Ranglin9 How am I an asshole?

[GANGSTAELPASO]

what the fuck... wheres the motherfucking heavy distortion intro....

[HelmutVonSphincter]

A whole new level of fail. Damn, this is worse than the worst karaoke ever. But boy is she purty though. =0p

[billy1496]

"ash shees...bodies burnt".....REALLLLY?

[awwturnitup]

well she fucked that up

[philipsmog]

I think she sounds fucking amazing really ominous, singing in some phantom key, wayne sounds like a fuckin hick.

[flynlulus]

remember seeing this when on PBS originally ... its freak'n great fun..and a sweet tune to Cover! ... realize How great a song It is... Kudos to Ozzie or whomever Pen' d it. (?) ... recall playing with early version of Flaming Lips in Houston 1989 ata small club. (F'Lips-Run Westy Run+ ?)

[Starclassic75]

Hey " Cat Power" ....pick a key.....any key would be nice

[aerosolinsecticide]

Favouriting this just for the novelty of a video with cat power and the lips onstage togetherrr

I mean like.... WTF

[hickrystyk]

He can sing, even when he is having a great time, but cat power, she couldn't carry a tune in a 5 gallon bucket, but she is still having a good time

I think she is high....what do you think?

[jazzmaster341]

Its become apparent the none of you twats have ever listened to cat power before. So if you don't like her you can fuck off. If you listened to her music you could understand this video isn't about sounding great, it more have a good time they're all laughing though it. And if you can't see the humour in this you obviously don't get The Flaming Lips either.

[freedomxegotist]

sorry, but she actually sucks in singing...ok, she's havin' a good time, but remember she suposses to be a singer... big fail, cause she doesnt even had the correct attitude to do that.

Besides the perform is on TV, if she wants to sounds like shit then a concert is the right place to do it.

[drfordstudios]

@freedomxegotist she probably sings better than you asshole.

[freedomxegotist]

@drfordstudios sure, bro.. you prove your point with that elaborate-'asshole'-argument, congrats.

[drfordstudios]

@freedomxegotist Huh? What are you talking about?

[Bcasey11]

@freedomxegotist shut up, you are an asshole so she not far off

[Bcasey11]

@fetterfrankie fuck yeah this song is better than the shit on the radio

[xmrpogox]

@fetterfrankie art is another word for opion, in order for you to listen to it does any one else really need to like it?

[jungleman68]

@fetterfrankie lady gaga is the only good pop artist out there. insult someone else

[morriswil32]

Flaming Lips Suck

[lhs04]

once again, the failure of recording live music.

[ZOMLUVER]

BITCH CAN'T EVEN SING!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Hereinmyhead102]

too bad she cant even carry a simple melody

[swarnel]

Cool cover... too bad the cat lady was trying as hard as she could to butcher it.

[borodrewman74]

she annoys me

[Dilliboy63]

every single clip i see of the lips, i am always captivated by the sounds that steven drozt is making. He may not garner the same attention of wayne coyne but is always providing an essential element to the music. Also way to go to him for kicking heroin

[ls17lad]

very good cover, but it would have been better with out the girl and the acoustic guitars

[DarkFalz1]

The girl is fucking awful :(

[carramrod721]

people these drum are very good but do your selves a favor and watch bill ward play the drums to this song. and btw this was the worst cover of all time

[BigFatSissy]

The drums. My god. The drums...

[WarningRules]

The drums? If you think the drums are good at this live show, you should hear Bill live :)

Anyway, this is probably the best cover of this song. I love the male and female singers.

[JesuszillaCorp]

episodes like this is he reason I still watch austin city limits, every extreme of music there!!!

[katinlove]

they are amazing!

[bootyhunter420]

simply amazing

[mexicanvogue]

sick drums

[wasoe]

Chan... Chan Chan Chan...

When will you ever learn the song?

[redmeatheart]

there concepts are total genius, like wayne coming over the crowd in a ball, dancers in animal costumes onstage, the camera fitted in his microphone, the blood over the face, the high powered lights he beams. There amazing and the band are like chameleons, they can completely change their sound, look at them with beck, no many bands can back another artist, i think them and the black lips are the best at that.

[bozaosk8]

que porra é essa

[jeanregazzoni]

Flamin Lips + Chan = WIN

[Zhreddek]

@jeanregazzoni no, Flaming Lips + Black Sabbath = WIN

[cinderbleh]

this would be much cuter if she knew the lyrics, as everyone has said. what an awesome performance on drums, though.. really made it awesome for me!

[TykoEaston]

hahaha this is so strange, some kind of twilight zone cover for chan

[toolmaker19]

is this cat power chick a fuckin joke. this is definitley one of the best songs ever made. she just desecrates it. so sad, no appreciation for music. a total hippie phony.

[Jejeeeje]

chan dejame casarme contigo

[hunthurd4]

Love me some Flamin' Lips but Sabbath was never about stupid stage prop blood and shit.

[sunspotpixie]

The blood is his way of paying homage to Miles Davis, who was beaten by cops on stage, back in the day.

[goplacia]

Fun! I like flaming lips and Chan, warpigs is a great song

[buttpipe7]

That rocked, Chans having fun. When was this gig?

[ClapDebout]

It was on december 2006.

[philipsmog]

@ClapDebout It was on 18 December 2004.

[WhoopMQ]

Not Chan's best but I can forgive her for being amazingly talented :p

[MecOSX]

i love chan, but she doesn't have the right voice for this. fun to watch tho.

[mcfallows]

That was insanely absurd but I loved it!!!!

[JohnnyGeologist]

aw man they didn't play the solo at the end! That's the best part of the song

i still liked it though

[Spaghettaboutit]

Uh it's not a solo, but sorta another song. It's called Luke's Wall and is normally played together with War Pigs, it's like Queen's We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions or Led Zeppelin's Heartbreaker/Living Loving Maid

[astrozombie777]

that.

was.

so.

stellar.

[Wang0Phat]

Cat ruined this for me.

Otherwise, it's an awesome cover.

[asonofleemarvin]

they should release this together!

[matadorppi0]

i love chan
