The Brian Jonestown Massacre - Straight Up & Down (full version)

[MaitreChong]

jesus and chain version



[johnnysanantonio]

I'm sure if everyone gave credit to Donovan Leitch who wrote the song Massacre ripped off the world would be a more Honest place.

[romeosdistress]

@johnnysanantonio I politely suggest you go fuck yourself...

[PHAEDRIDER]

@romeosdistress dont be polite....

tell the children to go back to their interpol cd.s and leave us alone .

[kricky71]

Perfection!

[DataUnit]

[saintandrews83]

Yes yes yes ....... awsome stuff BJTM !

[hamsterdam92]

I feel the need to walk to the shore of a beach tomorrow morning in sharp clothes while I light a cigarette. If only I lived near a beach and smoked.

[SailXDarker]

@hamsterdam92 Boardwalk Empire!

[jiltedkiller]

That ending gives me an orgasm

[TheGemini315]

<3

[xXCaptainKickAssXx]

I love this for background song on my stupid stunt vid

[domingoflores]

misstahhh rolling stone; anton

[domingoflores]

BGM

[CRASHTIMEWARP]

Feel like bootlegging anyone?

[1polochon78]

Actually from 05:51, it sounds very familiar with "Get off of my cloud" one the Rolling stones, one of my favourite song

[1polochon78]

Who is singing exactly ? Anton ? and ?

[Wulner]

11 minutes of pure satisfaction!

[oneUNITED7SS]

I never noticed that the 'Baby BABY' part came from You've Lost That Loving Feeling. Moar Brilliance.

[Supersolyman]

more like the freakin awesome version

[AgentMosco]

There's just no way you can not like this.

[LomTang]

I wish id heard this before Boardwalk' because this is awesome but now all i can think of is that boring ass tv show

[Electroboob]

Greatest album ever? Anyone agree?

[handsomedevil699]

fucking mind blower at 8:30 to finish. damni love this band

[PastaCheifFilms]

This is brilliant to close a gig with, my 7 piece band shall have to learn this all properly

[Krandolph17]

god I've got to stop sitting up all night listening to BJM... my work is starting to suffer!

...Just one.. more... song!

[melroach]

this sounds so much like get off of my cloud by the stones

[dirtynuke]

Very funny back cover. I wonder if Richards and Jagger came after poor Newcombe. I sure hope not. Long live the Massacre!

[lucianmp]

this is such a good song

[opedius187]

rock die schei...fett , fette beatz ,fette reime ..der mau mix´t die beatz und macht euch allen beine °ö° GReeTz von JT

[antikrulz]

that woo woo is def from sympathy for the devil and that nana is from hey jude, i love it when bands pay tribute to the other great ones

[TheTheleopard]

re the uploaders comments, yes hey jude - the whole song is such a stones homage there's a real tongue in cheek ending aping the beatles hey jude...

[TheTheleopard]

this whole o[us is clearly a (brilliant) stones pastiche withh the central verse structure based on 'get off of my cloud'.

this is clearly a homage to the stones - see how anton's voice apes jaggers in the middle section - "i spent all the money i had......"

Anton is too bright to attempt to plagerise, this is a clear homage....

[maidenofrohan]

The na-na-na sounds really familiar towards the end... does anyone know from which song it maybe similar to (that part)... haha its stuck in my head and i am trying to find that song. Nevertheless BJM is fantastic.

[bjmarchives]

@maidenofrohan hey jude

[maidenofrohan]

@bjmarchives -__- thaaanks i feel like an idiot =P

[afullhalfgramofacid]

...and, at around 9 min., "hoo-oo," reminiscent of the same from near the end of Sympathy for the Devil, mashing up w/ the other

[CRASHTIMEWARP]

@bjmarchives dont you think that there is some familiarity to sympathy for the devil. the whoo whoo part

[tylerdurdin00000]

@maidenofrohan sympathy for the devil..rolling stones..

[StreetyMcStreetSk8er]

@maidenofrohan hey jude is a pretty popularly sampled song.

[MrMidnitemarauder1]

@maidenofrohan that's awesome...

get with the program

[masiokowy]

@maidenofrohan for me Buffalo Springfield - For What Its Worth

[PHAEDRIDER]

@masiokowy OOOH! nice call.. there shall be no talk of " theivery " also . " get off of my cloud" great album , part of a trilogy in my opinion ,

[kirkcoffin]

@maidenofrohan and sympathy for the devil

[MattyBurr]

Where do you get the long version from?! I need it!

[TheNextNoelGallagher]

@MattyBurr Track 18 on their album 'Take it From the Man!' Download the entire album, all the songs are great!

[blackvinylrecords]

Ok they sound like the Velvets but........FUCK YEAH!

[blackvinylrecords]

Fuck yeah!

[simosc22]

Oh, cool song.

I d'like the tab...

[chadchap]

Stone Roses rip off.

[Algydyce]

@chadchap I disagree; the Roses had a very distinctive and different style, you have the 60's guitar but you also have a much more contemporary beat which sort of anchors it in the eighties. The Stone Roses would have to be one of my favourite bands and I cannot see much similarity between them and the BJM. Now if you were to say BJM sound like the Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Velvet Underground...etc. I could see where you were coming from.

[WhoMadeWhoProds]

Just listened to this version for the first time. Goddamn. Where can I get this?

[JamesPDower]

found this song from boardwalk empire. i think it's great how tv shows use older songs; it helps introduce younger generations to fantastic music.

[meengrn]

I hear JaMC at 3:43.

[bmg421]

I think if everyone loved the brian jonestown massacre the world would be a better place.

[Utanpans]

@bmg421 : musically YES psychologically NO :D .. love n peas, MEsus

[ninthdark]

Fantastic work. This song truly takes me to a better place. I'm so happy to have learned of this band. Definitely one for the album collection.

[BRIANJONESTOWNDUDE]

K&TG .......... Anyone got any guitar tab music for this?

I'm stating the obvious but this track is Kool ........... & The Gang

[lostsidewalk]

okay, so, this is fucking great...



[CharlesLuckyLuciano]

Awesome!!!

[gruveygirl420]

Thank you so much for posting this version of Straight Up and Down! YOU ROCK!!

[sethconstantine]

Sympathy for the devil and Hey Jude at the end!

GREAT song.

[evancasto]

Without people like you postijg videos on youtube iike this I;d be bummed. sorry im drun haha.

[WilkyMay609]

This song reminds me of the Velvet Underground's "Waiting for the man"

[FirstSargeant1]

Dude... YOU ARE THE MAN! Thank You!
