  • The only part that's missing, is Eric Prydz's ass

  • I whis this song never stops, every call on me sounds different and new at my ears, non repetitive, not getting tired... just addictive, this awake some good emotions..

  • don't get why all ppl scream about pryda. he got some good tracks so far. daftpunk are unbeatable forever, so he can never beat them. but this version is a way clearer and better.

  • i'm addicted to this music

  • youtube this

    DJ Falcon - Call On Me (Live Groove City 11-21-02)

    ^ live mix in 2002

  • Yall fcking confusing me. So whtats the real story behind this track? Prydz made it out of Valerie, then DJ Falcon played it in his set?

  • CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON ME CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON ME CALL ON MEEEEEEE CALL ON ME CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON ME CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON ME CALL ON MEEEEEEE CALL ON ME CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON ME CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEEE CALL ON ME CALL ON MEEEEEEE CALL ON ME

    CANT STOP LISTENING TO THIS SONG

  • Is call on me , pjanoo all you guys ever heard of prydz and now making this miserable conversation o_0?

  • So Like Wtf I Hear Daft Mafia Made This And Not Dj Falcon -.-

  • @TheFernandoFunk Daft Mafia made a remix of the song.

  • FUCKIN IDIOTS, mr.PRYDZ LIKE IT, AND BUY THE RIGHTS FROM THE LABEL THAT THIS TRACK RELEASED. ITS LEGAL.

  • It's sad, I thought prydz version was the only one...

  • hahahhahahah you guys have made my day with all your stupid comments about eric prydz stealing the song HAHAHAHAAHAH you guys need to grow up.

  • Eric Prydz is not just Call On Me and Pjanoo ;)

  • are you guys all idiots? Bangalter and DJ Falcon themselves admitted that Prydz did the original and Falcon just played it in his sets.

  • @arram087 yup idiots.com. Bangalter and falcon have more talent in their collective left testicle than prydz has in his entire ball sack combined so :-p oooooosh!

  • @scjw well, i'm not denying this, clearly we all know that bangalter and falcon are infinitely more talented, i mean, bangalter is 1/2 daft punk, but the number of people "butthurt" over this whole Call on Me fallacies is ridiculous.

  • @arram087 true. I personally do actually prefer the prydz version of call on me. I literally however would turn gay for together so became a bit of a fanboy with my reply. I do however have a humble side and realise u weren't trying to discredit bangalter's work, just giving a an objective view. I therefore humbly rescind my previous enthusiasm to discredit your comment and humbly apologise and respect it. I still bum together to the max though!

  • @arram087 Bangalter and Falcon NEVER admitted this. I have an interview that in fact says otherwise!

  • @arram087 can you clear something up for me,ive been argueing for years about this, i had a white label of call on me by RED KULT that was released 12months before prydz version! is prydz and red kult the same person???? any ways in my opinion red kults version is better than this and prydz's

  • @arram087 Dude you're fucking wrong and an idiot this is literally a different song just the same sample used. Together made it first whether Prydz copied or not is up to opinion together never played the prydz version in their sets they played their own don't make shit up FUCKING RETARD!!!

  • @icekingmonkey To end all of the discussions: Djs share their promos to other djs who have them in their set and in this case it was a early version wich later leaked and now people think it was made by Falcon Eric Prydz got new fresh re-recorded vocals from Steve Winwood. Originally he used a sample but then Steve heard Prydz remix and loved it so he re-recorded them. As you can hear this has no beat in the background = no sample wich tells that this is the new recorded vocals

  • @ultran84 Absolutly WRONG. Yes the vocals were rerecorded for the Prydz version. Listen to the track around it it's completely fucking different, not an early version a completely different song.

  • @arram087 That is not true. I have a recorded interview with DJ Falcon in which he explains they made the song.

  • Prydz did it better

    thread/

  • This is a track based on a re-recorded sample of Steve Winwood's 1982 song "Valerie". When Prydz presented the track to Winwood, he was so impressed with what Prydz had done, he collaborated with him and re-recorded the vocals to fit the track better. The original version of "Call on Me" was initially mistaken as a release by Together (a collaboration between Thomas Bangalter and DJ Falcon), due to Falcon's use of the song in DJ sets and an advance pressing credited to Falcon and Bangalter.

  • OMGFKINSOIDFGIOPAEOGNAOIERNGIA­OMG I LOVE THIS SONG!!! <3

  • A bit repetitive ... but it has that awesome 80s/90s sound ... Me likes :)

  • this track was made JUST by falcon. it's often said this track belongs to the Together duo but it's actually a dj falcon track.

  • holy shit lads just enjoy the fukin tune!!!!

  • awesome!! so Daft Punk originated another hit!!

    love this too at the mo

  • The original version of "Call on Me" was initially mistaken as a release by Together (a collaboration between Thomas Bangalter and DJ Falcon), due to Falcon's use of the song in DJ sets and an advance pressing credited to Falcon and Bangalter.[1]

    -From Wikipedia.

  • @Oppo28 look at the pressing... the white label specifically says DJ Falcon and Bengalter-Call On Me'

  • @plw1993 I repeat: The original pressing was MISTAKENLY attributed to Together. That's why the pressing says DJ Falcon and Bangalter. It's not their song, it's Eric Prdyz'. Together played it a lot before it was ever released and thus people thought it was theirs. A sticker on a record does not automatically indicate with 100% certainty who wrote the piece.

  • @Oppo28 It's Together's song. We all know that, and there is no need to argue anymore, truth is out there, confirmed by DJ Falcon himself.

  • @funkerman7 Are you trolling? Citation please on Dj Falcon's confirmation? What do you mean we all know it, apparently not. It is Eric Prydz' song, with the only people arguing otherwise are people here on youtube or other forums. Everything legitimate indicates that it's not Together's song.

    I will continue to hold this is the truth but if you show me some evidence otherwise (such as DJ falcon's confirmation) I will reinvestigate.

  • @Oppo28 there's an interview with DJ Falcon, where he stated that he made this song for his set, and after the set him and Bangalter went to the studio and made the version that you hear right now, but I think the main reason why this was never released officially was because they thought it was way too cheesy (?) and not sample clearance. im not exactly sure, but the fact is that it was made by Together BEFORE Eric Prydz.

  • @funkerman7 You can't make unverified claims. You added nothing new. I already know you think DJ Falcon confirmed that it was his song, but I need confirmation. If there's an interview, link the interview. Substantiated claims can go a long way in convincing me of something, so please provide a link to something to back up your claims.

  • @Oppo28 That's gonna be a struggle to find it, because I've heard it a while ago, one specific person confirmed that it was indeed DJ Falcon etc. Check out what discogs has to say...

  • @funkerman7 "In 2004 DJ Falcon and Bangalter had the idea for 'Call On Me', a track based on a sample of 'Valerie' performed by Steve Winwood. Released as a white label, it started to get played in France. A DJ named Eric Prydz was supposed to remix it, but ever since the 'Gym Tonic Event',Bangalter had gained a notoriety in finding good samples and imaginative ideas.

  • @funkerman7 For unknown reasons, Roulé didn't clear the sample to release the track commercially, but Prydz, helped with his label Ministry Of Sound, did. Even Steve Winwood liked the track and re-recorded a part of his vocals to be part of the project. Result: 'Call On Me' became a worldwide hit, but without any mention of Bangalter in the credits or in the concept."

  • me as a witness.no one will believe me it was Thomas Bangalter company with dj falcon that made the mix, i also remember it took years to get the licensees for the call me samples..( as the loussy stvewe winwood, denied of using his samples, it took years for the production or better yet been secret.i have the original acetate LP that thomas gave me to listen to me secretly as i remeber he told me years ago, even though the truth will come out...let the music spin!!

  • @Oppo28 Also, quoting wiki is not the brightest idea ever. I have my reliable sources, and I don't have to back my words when I don't really need to :) if you don't believe - that's okay, guess why Eric Prydz doesn't talk about Call On Me at all?

  • Wow, I've wondered who this song was by...

  • no one will believe me it was Thomas Bangalter company with dj falcon that made the mix, i also remember it took years to get the licensees for the call me samples..( as the loussy stvewe winwood, denied of using his samples, i took years for the production or better yet been secret.i have the original acetate LP that thomas gave to listen to with the headphones on so no one could hear it as he told me those years, even though the truth will come out...let the music spin!!

  • Falcons version is the best....the bassline is so nice...Fu..k Prydz

  • Ahhhh! Who cares who wrote it!

    It's an amazing song !

  • Without eric prydz stole this song Daft punk may never exist :P

  • @nilsodor you cant be serious. everybody knows Daft Punk is more famous dan Eric Pryds by far. Im not saying Eric Pridz is bad, but Daft Punk are the kings of house music

  • @Bikendi100 Lol I mean Dj falcon is in daft punk and eric prydz stole this song so i mean like without eric stole this song may Daft punk never met each other haha who knows :P

  • @nilsodor o well, i see, i just misunderstood everything. but have a good day

  • @nilsodor Seriously? DJ Falcon ISN'T IN DAFT PUNK! Thomas Bangalter is, though. This was done between 2002-2004 and Daft Punk had released their BIGGEST ALBUM by then, Discovery, so there is no way this could have possibly affected Daft Punk. And just to clear this up, Bangalter and DJ Falcon did not make the song, but simply played it a lot when they performed live. This caused confusion, and then people thought that it was their song, however this is not true.

  • @nilsodor lol you kind of my much owned me haha :P Isn't it just that you don't beilive itäs true? :O Or are you sure ?

  • @nilsodor ohhh my god u must be trolling dj falcon is not in daft punk, thomas bangalter is in daft punk, this is like 2003 2004, daft punk was formed in the 90s and daft punk knew each other since they were kids and were even in a rock band with a guy from the band Phoenix. Daft punk was famous in late 90s by this time daft punk were already past their super famous...son i dont know what u are talkin about

  • Comment removed

  • I LOVE THE PART WHERE SAY "CALL ON MEEEEEEEEEEE, CALL ON ME!"

  • @robottttrockkkk eeermmmmm... All the song? XD

  • DJ Falcon publicly played an early version of Eric Prydz's "Call on Me", leading it to be mistakenly credited as a Together (Thomas Bangalter & DJ Falcon) production in an unofficial pressing

  • @TASPChannel The early version WAS DJ Falcon and Thomas Bangalter's version of the track, and besides just listening to this you can hear how much different it sounds from the Eric Prydz version that that theory can't be plausible. And DJ Falcon has indeed admitted to creating Call on Me originally.

  • @BalooRJ no he didn't. its prydz' song. it's just an early version before steve winwood gave him a clean vocal stem for the final mix. dj falcon just happened to get an early version & played it live.

  • @3DMusicGroup No he didn't, that's a bullshit story made up by Prydz. DJ Falcon was playing the track a whole two years before Prydz released his version of Call On Me, back in 2002 no one knew who Prydz even was! DJ Falcon revealed in an interview that he did indeed formulate the original Call on Me track with Thomas Bangalter, but they didn't want to release it because it sounded too similar to the other Together tracks, one really good repetitive vocal loop over and over again.

  • I love this song

  • fuck prydz that fucking prick, oh well... heres thier conversation

    prydz : neh neh i took your song and scored millions whilst you and falcon sat there like idiots waiting for the sample to be cleared :P

    thomas: oh yeah, we at least i can make records that consist of more than a terrible drum loop and a four second piano loop over and over for 6 minutes, seriously are you five years old ?? oh by the way im one half of daft punk :D

    prydz : *aims gun at head*

  • @francaisemusique HELL YEAH BRO TELL THEM! LOL

  • @francaisemusique

    best part about it is he didnt score millions haha it was a record breakingly low selling number 1 LOL i read somewhere it only sold around 300k cd's in the year it came out which is shockingly bad not to mention most that money goes to the record company and managers etc

  • @Lollertron seriously ? ha fucking deserves it for stealing other peoples shit, unorigional dickhead he is, haha sorry for all the cussing, i just hate prydz

  • @francaisemusique oooooooosh!

  • @francaisemusique Thomas usually has a sample loop for 4 minutes, you know.

  • so much more intricate than the eric prydz version.

  • Ive lost all respect for pryz fuckin theif

  • I am loving this!!

  • This is not a Together/Thomas Bangalter/DJ Falcon song. There is no proof to support this theory.

  • @CaptainEggSalad Go read about Thomas on discogs

  • @Inikalord Fuck off, any loser can enter an EP/single on Discogs. There is no evidence on either side that this was ever a Bangalter track

  • @CaptainEggSalad *sigh* I was going to reply more harshly, but im not gonna go to that level.

    Lets just leave it as it is, let the people believe what they want to believe if its Thomas's track or not. It really doesnt matter who owns it so long as people enjoy listening to the song.

  • @CaptainEggSalad You Fuck off, go look up DJ Falcon + Cassius @ Pay and Go, Groove City. It's a live set from 2002 where DJ Falcon plays Call on Me. That's a full 2 YEARS before Eric Prydz even released Call on Me.

  • @CaptainEggSalad Oh, and DJ Falcon has also confirmed in an unreleased interview that he did the track Call on Me with Thomas Bangalter and that they didn't want the track released because it sounded too similar to So Much Love to Give and Together.

  • @CaptainEggSalad Ask mr. Bangalter himself then douche

  • @PandemicRevelutions I'll get him to fax me a written statement.

    Whore.

  • @CaptainEggSalad Whore indeed. Weak shit man.. weak

  • I'm the same boy I used to be

  • @RedMage8BT Can those lyrics get any more epic? I love that line.

  • Together made the tune but couldnt get the samples cleared in time. Prydz decided to take the song, his label showed it to the original writer of the valerie which call on me samples- Steve Winwood who gave new vocals to be used on prydz's song and it was realeased while falcon and bangalter were waiting for their samples to be cleared. Prydz NEVER plays this song live- probably guilt. It sounds exactly like a together song as well.Theres also a thomas falke valerie tune which is a bit confusing

  • @dgpcostello No proof that this is Together track.

  • @dgpcostello The sample is heard on the Steve Winwood remix of VALERIE from 1987 because 1982 is old.

  • @dgpcostello

    The original valerie: [from 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA 1954] SEA! OH!

    The new valerie: [from THE PARENT TRAP 1961] Let's get together! Yea-yea-yea! (strum)

  • @dgpcostello as far as i have heard, pryds was told to remix that one

  • @dgpcostello oh interesting - i remember buying this tune and thinking, once again, how good thomas bangalter and dj falcon were and then a few months later its suddenly a really amatuer version by eric prydz :wtf:

    the way this track is compressed is typical of daft punk and really much much more subtle than that the commercial one.

  • @daftblac Thomas Bangalter can make good music without using corny production.

  • @dgpcostello not to be rude but huh?

  • @georgiefromtippit which part you didnt understand? what he said was more or less true.

  • @dgpcostello LMFAO (party rock anthem) and Prydz copied this song BIG TIME!

  • @dgpcostello Real story is that due to Sinclar and Bangalter making a song together prior to this that sounded in the same vein, it was thought that this was their song. It wasn't, as a matter of fact, it is Valerie (Eric Prydz Edit), used it in his sets all the time. THEN he cleared samples and etc etc.

  • this version has more original parts than the prydz's one

  • Quote from Wikipedia, interpret the reliability of it as you wish, "DJ Falcon publicly played an early version of Eric Prydz's "Call on Me", leading it to be mistakenly credited as a Together production in an unofficial pressing."

  • This is way better than the Eric Prydz version!

  • @V8Mustang89 you kidding, this is terrible, just cuz its orginal doesnt make it better

  • Eric Prydz just had the money to buy the rights on the sample of this song..but it"s Together wich created this track !

  • WTF? Why is everyone hating on Eric Prydz...Both Thomas and Eric remixed Winwoods Valerie song so technically Eric Prydz didn't steal from Thomas he stole from Winwood.....Without Winwood both Thomas and Eric wouldn't have remixed such an amazing song..All credit goes to Winwood not Thomas no hate though.

    BUT I like this one better that Prydz anyways so :)

  • This is what electronic/dance/real hip-hop is all about. Samples are called samples for a reason -.- How many people do you think actually make their own music today?

  • @Wilshy ROFL stfu faggot

  • @MarioBrosClassic well ur clearly a wanker

  • @funkerman7 the fact that it's a rumour doesn't make it true. it's in their biographies for fuck's sake. it was released on an unofficial white label with a song by falcon and bangalter, that plus the fact that falcon used it in sets a lot caused most of the confusion. do some research before you start making up "facts".

  • @LoCkdoWnKiLLKeNnY who cares about fucking biographies, when theres physical evidence (audio clips), white labels etc. however we will never reach an agreement plus both sides (prydz and together) won't tell the backstory behind call on me

  • @funkerman7 true. guess we can never really know for sure just cause of the ambiguity behind it.

  • Love listening to this song on 6minute 25second drives...

  • hate to be a buzzkill, but the song is credited to falcon and bangalter by accident because they used to use this one in sets a lot.

    this is actually prydz's original release, on the second release he collaborated with steve winwood, which is why it sounds more produced than this version.

    so, hate to say it, cause i really like falcon and bangalter, but the track is credited to the wrong artists.

    i'm not hating on bangalter, falcon,or prydz, cause they're all great artists in their own right.

  • @LoCkdoWnKiLLKeNnY dude, you should just fucking comments on youtube. its an open fact that Prydz indeed stole it from Together. 

  • Comment removed

  • @LoCkdoWnKiLLKeNnY:

    Brainwashed by Ministry of Sound much?

  • Prydz will always get ZERO respect by anyone in the House Community for basically ripping off Thomas and Falcon to make a quick buck. Him and the moron who did Gyn and Tonic the Rip-off to Gym Tonic by Thomas Bangalter

  • i think its fuckin awesome that you all are too stubborn to see that Prydz and Bangalter made DIFFERENT remixes. its not the same song copied, its a different song entirely, so you all are sayin you hate the song because its a remake, but its just a completely different song. so why not take the song for being a song and give the producer the credit he deserves for creating a tune that you could never hope to make in your meaningless youtube hater lives.

  • @xarx becuz have wax in ur ears to realize that its NOT an entirely different song, that eric prydz repackaged the song....i mean screw it just listen to the fucking backdrop of the song which is what prydz used and its the same fucking melody and notes for fucks sake dude.

  • any1 knows the sample they used?

  • @axxrulez its steve winwood - valerie

  • Comment removed

  • @axxrulez Steve Winwood - Valerie

  • @gilmourish so you can make similar song of the same genre by using same samples exactly same way and use same ideas in the composition without blaming anything, thats a steal mate..

  • Eric Prydz = TOYZ!

    Thomas & DJ Falcon = RULEZ!

  • Eric Prydz = Twat

  • Levantate conchetumadre! jaja

  • the begining always makes me think of Deadmau5 vs Chris Lake "I thought inside out",

  • Sampling Bangalter is just ugly and disrespective, stealing one goes out of scale.. first time i heard this song i was asking dj's to play it because it's going to be a BIG, all i was hearing was ".oh you mean that one, it's a Prydz song".

  • @lownrgy ..don't forget prydz was literally nobody before dj falcon made this song, and his version sucks btw..

  • @lownrgy what? Prydz sampled the original tune, not Bangalter..

  • If you dont read the title and you listen to the song, it sounds like it is saying, "Cumm on Meeee" lol

  • I'll take this over the shit eric pydz and his porn music video anyday.

  • even if he did steal it from DP, eric prydz's version is pretty good, and it has some hot babes in it. and where's this interview?

  • @Hobbyist56 I think you mean "together" not Daft Punk. Thomas is only in together not manuel

  • @FuzemiRecords Wow, do you seriously have to post this w/ Fuzemi account and not your true one?

  • @funkerman7 it's what i was logged in under..old laptop

  • @Hubi40 Haha, I tried to catch you on MSN so many times to hear the interview, but u keep ignoring, man wtf :)

  • hum je préfere largement la version d'eric prydz

  • This song isn't by Thomas Bangalter, this song is a promo by Eric Prydz that was misunderstood as a TB and Dj Falcon song when they played a promo in a set. Promo copies and white labels were subsequently marked as Thomas Bangalter songs. Legally Bangalter could take credit for his song, even though he had used samples, but he has never done that, ever.

  • @Carloshache Nope, DJ Falcon has confirmed that him and Thomas Bangalter created this track, they merely did not want to release it. Prydz just made up that early promo story as a way to make people think he came up with the same.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @BalooRJ Lie. It's clearly you don't have a source for this statement except speculation, which is why it has never been said.

  • @Carloshache I believe this because this doesn't sound anything like bangalter.

  • @PimYuTub Sounds nothing like Bangalter? Are you mad? Go listen to Together and So Much Love to Give, same exact DJ Falcon/Thomas Bangalter concept of endless disco loops.

  • @Carloshache Thomas provided the samples but he never cleared them to release the track.

  • Comment removed

  • @dafthutso Still I don't see any evidence for this. Show me a quote from Bangalter about this in a serious interview and I can begin consider that. And even though you don't clear the sample you still have legal rights to your song. but no right to release it if the copyright holder who owns the sample doesn't want to. So Bangalter can sue Eric Prydz for theft, but he hasn't.

  • @Carloshache Well, it's virtually impossible to find an interview from Bangalter, because the man doesn't give them that often. I guess we'll never know who really came up with the original sampling. But it doesn't matter anyway, let's just enjoy the song.

  • @dafthutso DJ Falcon has stated in interview that Call On Me was indeed Together song

  • Dude I really believed Eric Prydz made this song. That rotten mofo. TEAM BANGALTER/FALCON.

  • Great song! Wish I could download it. Eric Prydz's version is horrible.

  • @Cykull You can download it from my blog right here:

    wdpk.wordpress(dot)com/2010/06­/25/together-call-on-menicolas­-vallee-new-new-york/

  • @BalooRJ Thank you kind sir.

  • @Cykull

    You can download this I use VDownloader you can convert this video into MP3.

  • Regardless of who made what, this is the best version of this song.

  • Huge track here

    youtube.com/watch?v=8ZiK7c8j91­Q

  • I like this version better because it actually samples more of "Valerie" than the words "call on me" and "I'm the same boy I used to be"

    Actual sampling. :D

  • this is the original prydz bootleg before it got picked up,revamped and re-released.the record was mislabeled,i worked at a record store when this came out ,imo the flip side was better.basically everyone calling prydz gay and loving this version is an idiot.

  • Comment removed

  • sampled: Valerie Remix 1987 by Steve Winwood

    September 1987, not April 1982

  • way way way better than prydz, cause this still sounds like  ther original song

  • Thomas > Prydz

  • gayyy?!

  • WHAT!? Eric Prydz copied this guy?!

  • @xirishkid93x That's right

  • @xirishkid93x yep

  • @cdude247 uncool -.- saddens me

  • @xirishkid93x this "guy"??? T-Bang and DJ Falcon are two of the most influential producers to dance music

  • @xirishkid93x yep

  • @xirishkid93x well not really copied

    he asked if he could used it

  • @xirishkid93x not really, i did another version based on this (which use a lot of old stuff)... one of those guy is Thomas Bangalter aka DAFT PUNK ;)

  • @xirishkid93x He didnt copy he made is own remake

  • @xirishkid93x

    yes, prydz did. falcon recently played at one club i'm resident in, and he shared the story. prydz is a prick, imo.

  • @xirishkid93x LOL? You think anyone today comes up with their own shit?
