Black Eyed Peas - Let's Get Retarded

[seymourglass26]

Let's sell out and change our lyrics when we get media heat! Yeah!

[BigAndTall666]

@seymourglass26 everybody does it, hence the new copyright laws that will keep the greedy companies sick rich for the years to come, art is dead!

[FMKdiamondZ]

[shelberry86]

[sava840]

Cheers Shane Dawson

[Ragkantos]

Old Black Eyed Peas are fucking good. Now they are just commercial...

[SazzieChan]

I miss this BEP so much! So many memories linked to Elephunk and Monkey Business! <3

[LanzaOdoru]

14 people aren't retarded enough.

[XboxliveHaters]

2012 and still litenin to the song

[loadedjogger]

I think I get the relevance of the title. The Black Eyed Peas Sound like a bunch of 'tards for singing this. I'd rather listen to numa numa. Oh yeah I went there.

[timmo1121]

I keep forgetting how old they are...

[boogs2007]

The only retards I can see is the ones who clicked dislike.

The people who clicked like are awesome!

[thetheonator101]

[iZM1chael]

[abcveria]

[cluelesscheese1]

[MrVersus26]

13 people haven't press the start button

[diabolick197]

we all miss old black eyed peas D:

[FFTS3LG]

Is this a real song? Not just a fan-made or something? :O

[ResidentEval619]

@FFTS3LG No, It is a real song, but they had to change it into "Let's Get It Started" Because some people find "Retarded" Offensive. Personally i like "Let's Get Retarded" better.

[FFTS3LG]

@ResidentEval619 Okay, thanks for the information =)

[EpiiCGaming1]

@FFTS3LG no this is the real song just people got offended from it for some stupid reason so they changed it

[boogs2007]

@EpiiCGaming1

That's not entirely true, It's all because of they were thinking of people with disabilities.

That's the real reason disabled people don't like the word retard.

[jer3l]

i first heard this on Downhill Domination way before it became a single

[supeRRam81]

i miss the old Black Eyed Peas

[FreakPop1]

@supeRRam81 i agree :P

[CortezCardenal]

@lkennedy31 So the title is weird, but the title is a line that forms a majority of the lyrics? Alright.

[felipesalaberry2000]

ouso ela des dos 5 anos de idade

[felipesalaberry2000]

adoro essa musica, dizem que ela é mt velha mas pra mim ela é nova ainda

[lkennedy31]

I love this song, but the title is so weird!

[MrFoulPlug]

Harold and Kumar Brought my here

[IISkiiTLeZII]

@MrFoulPlug yes definitely best films everrrrrr

[MrFoulPlug]

@IISkiiTLeZII Definitely :)

[KDog31619]

@MrFoulPlug Harold and Kumar are awesome movies!

[Bammegera2]

@MrFoulPlug hahaha me too

[TheShittSquad]

@MrFoulPlug Same here... :P

[sworddude114]

@MrFoulPlug lolol same here

[sensesfail69]

get retarded

[JDCauti0n]

this is the legit song, they redid a lot of the songs on the album because a lot of critics and parents didnt like the lyrical content. like this song making references to slow people "bob your head like epilepsy" just stupid people bitching for no reason...

[jenmcbean]

@JDCauti0n I went through brain surgery last year because i am epileptic, and could give two shits about what they sing in a song its lyrics. . . Too bad all them Yankees want is money, They'll sue anyone to make a buck Thumbs up to Canadians on here!

[treesunion]

is the actual song? oo

[Lilaah01]

it's LET'S GET IT STARTED

[Shinjitsusei]

@Lilaah01 Nope. The original was "Let's Get retarded". Then the censored version "Let's Get It Started" replaced it. Trust me, I have the original Elephunk CD(got it when it was first released obviously).

[Eliasken350]

@Lilaah01 That's another version...

[CapleCakes]

@Lilaah01 that's the censored version you spastic

[sloan711]

why did they made a censored version if in the radio it's listened like this? (at least were i live)

[BattyBitz]

@sloan711 Not where I live. I live in a conservative, Mormon area though. I like this version a lot better than the original.

[jccree17]

Fuck Fergie! Will I am is HOTTT!

[spoke49]

best album, now black eyed peas make shit...

[Sheucarft]

im a relatively new fan of the black eyed peas isnt this just like lets get it started or is lets get it started just like this

[sloan711]

Finally someone that knows the true version!!!! Thumps Up if you think these version is better and the song its more meaningful

[chronic440]

really good group i dont usually like this music but it's a nice belnd of skills and sounds dope

[Rikuwhore]

This song sounds a million times better with 'retarded.' I still say it when I sing to it.

[Marcolino66DIES]

old BEP... the best! ;)

[funshopful]

so good music perdonenme por la mala traduccion al ingles XD

[buddyz143]

no wonder they changed this song

[Hojoky96]

you guys know that in this song, the word "retarded" means getting knocked up on drugs, not the mental disability. THAT'S why the video is of the censored version because they didn't want the video to be promoting drug use.

[chronic440]

@Hojoky96 nice observation captain obvious

[Hojoky96]

@chronic440 sorry, I didn't know that until last year. geez

[boogs2007]

I have Down Syndrome and I get called a retard a lot.

But it doesn't affect me at all that's how much I love this song.

I'm not here to campaign, I'm here to enjoy music.

[Gzregs]

@boogs2007 call me a troll all u want but my mans gassing

[MultiNoobBoob]

@boogs2007 Can you even type something when you have down sydrome

[woodstock767]

@boogs2007 YOU'RE FUCKING RETARDED....

[boogs2007]

@woodstock767

Someone's in a crappy mood have a decaf and settle down there's no need to call yourself that,

You shouldn't beat yourself up over it, I can't believe that you would stoop that low.

Me retard? So what! I'm proud of having Down Syndrome I like who I am.

Retard or not I'm still better then you.

[diabolick197]

@boogs2007 nice one :D i got yo back bro :D

[boogs2007]

@diabolick197

Thanks mate, I'm used to it.

The more they call names, The more stronger I get.



[FloBotsInc]

@boogs2007 thats the audited bro , its not intending to offend ppl with that word

[adhdcrackheadpimp]

@boogs2007 i love you for saying that

[sava840]

@boogs2007 Thats out. Its OK if they're your mates because you know they are joking, but if its dumb arse chavs ignore them as you do.

[TricoIncorporated]

HAHAHA the "r-word" campaigners must hate this song.

[Hugodamasta]

i heard this first when i was small. i hate the censored version. just annoys me

[Tacoma1993]

I love both versions...

[joao00098]

i love this song!!!! REALLY

[TheMRlongboard]

one of my faviorte songs to play on bass

[jack123456700100]

GOOD!

[harybosco]

it's highly comical to me in so many ways concerning this...that they had to make a "clean" version for an already clean song just because America's priorities and PC obsessions are whacked out of control...pile that on top of the fact the "clean" remake catapulted this group of ego-maniacs into a level of stardom that causes intellectual America to vomit. It's all too amusing...and it sucks. American wants polished mediocrity.

[crezwold]

No comparison, there is something in this version that makes you get up and go a bit nutso, the other, lets get it started, is just another song

[starwars101917]

this is better than the clean version

[BearsDude7w00t]

This song should be in the movie The Ringer

[MrDnriver]

word



[TheMashKETCHUP]

this should be retard rickey's theme song

[cookieandapples]

Black eyes peas will always be awesome

[SarahGmezRulz]

Thumbs up if Shane Dawson brought you here!! :)

[CEALofDeath]

@SarahGmezRulz Why? What'd he do? I haven't YouTube'd in forever, and am SOOO behind in my Shane!

[MurderKid34]

@SarahGmezRulz guess none

[Zutara4eva12]

rofl this song ROCKS

[Tobeikun01]

@kintharocks I do like the back beat to that song tho! Its makes me smile, the song is dumb tho.

[2flocker]

man the black eyed peas used to be good at doing their song s they stil are but them being about the future is bull *t they should stick to the now

[puppydog236]

Thumbs up if shane brought you here!

[heyyomas]

i guess 8 people dont like retards

[aqwTVpriestNender]

Shane dawson :)

[SorryWereSilly]

i miss the old black eyes pease.): now there all future and shit. wtf?!

[LittleMissAwesome110]

Back when the black eyed peas weren't sellouts

[Kintharocks]

this is the real black eyed peas , not the fake time of my life beurk !

[MrMe3101]

Selling ball sack $2,00 each

[salemarde]

@MrMe3101 u just found a buyer

[Jack9Riley]

It doesn't matter which version you hear, the song still rocks.

[smed05]

This is the original song, i got the album...

Apparently "retarded" was to offensive for mtv, so they remade it to "lets get it started"

[Jambo888]

@smed05 it was the BEP's decision, or so they said in an interview. After seeing their audience they didn't want to offend and decided to change.

[xtrasharp08]

@smed05 mtv needsz tah qrow sum balls dhen.

[jmerridew124]

Since the only difference between this and the "clean" version, or the "original," whatever you wanna call it is that one word, I'd assume it's just padding to fill the song quota of the record. "Let's Get it Started" sounds better in the chorus anyway.

[MrSkateholic]

is this the original, or a parody!??!? someone please answer!

[AbsoluteFallout]

@smirre1993 no its not, its just the unedited version

[bluemango28]

@smirre1993 no its the original

[BrisaEnElCorazon]

@MrSkateholic It's the original, I bought this album in Spain and this song was incluyed in the cd

[rmp7shot]

i like the other better

[outtacontrol564]

i kno ppl are already bitchin about the word "retarded" but honestly "lets get it started" has to be one of the most retarded things I have ever heard

[atineiatte]

i just realized that the only version of this song i've ever heard was the censored version. :O

[correll151]

i listen to this shit all the time when i'm high... like i am now hahaha =]

[meth71]

its a well good song so much better than lets get started in here

[jleustis]

I hate how the remake is more popular than the original.

anyway the remake doesnt make sense with those lyrics.

[QuiteQwertyFace]

derp

[SuperGinger94]

Will I. Am's rap makes much more sense with "retarded" in there.

[Amiachan]

ah, so much better than the censored version...thumbs up if you agree :)

[Conduit13C]

lol...i like this version better, i always thought BEP was retarded...

[TheCookieHaters]

thats gangster rap right there

[SirKobrias]

yeah clean versions suck.

[kittyCat1525]

MONKEY business, elephunk is like ELEPHant, i wonder whats the next animal

[PIV0Tlol]

I noticed this version in a video game called "The Urbz"

[tesssegura]

i like "let's get it started" better

[foyter11x]

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWR

[tuggaboy]

A grammar mistake in the last message :/

[tuggaboy]

¡¡¡I LOVE THIS VERSION!!!

I prefer the final part of this version than the "Let's Get It Started" one. (from 3min01 until the end).

In the new album they abandoned the RnB and started doïng something more electronic. I don't really like the new album. I hate "Meet Me Halfway"… GOSH! It makes me SICK! And the "I Got A Feeling" song… Aww, so repetitive that is nauseous! It started being played on my country radio stations after more than 5 months in the other countries, so I kind of hate it.

[hondefronz]

@tuggaboy

i agree, I liked the bep because of there funk beats and there orchestral explosions ,

now they make flat bad elektro. everybody in europe tries to make such easy music in there basements, but only the bep make profit out of it..

Black eyed peas became a sad group that raped themselves :(

[skatsorc]

I liked BEP during their Elephunk era, but now...

[RedMist85]

Thumbs up if you're getting retarded! lol

[irishelk1]

they fucking are retarded bunch of pricks

[egjramin]

Fuck the new shit of them. I hate Boom boom pow and I got a feeling.

[nicofresh97]

This Song is much better than Boom Boom Pow

[MDW347]

THIS SONG ROCKS!

[CrazyPuller]

@MDW347 it isn't "Rock" it's (Alternative) "Hip-Hop".  ;)

[sumptjez000]

For some reason this song makes me want to get up and dance MORE than "Let's get it started".

[irokharderthenu]

i like both versions, bt this is betr. btw, my fav song on the album

[XGCScrappy]

yall miss so much

Love this thanks for posting

[miller306678]

screw you people who cant take a joke. only little pricks would bitch about some little thing like this. This song is a perfect example of people using their freedom of speech. Fuck the FCC.

[DarkCyrusProducts]

First its Let's Get Retarded then they said they are going to put it for radio. So they remixed into "Get Started"

[Forkschoolmusical]

what the hell?

[MurphGiovanni]

this should definitely be the special olympics anthem....someone make that happen

[DeviCortez]

@MurphGiovanni Haha, so wrong, yet so funny! No disrespect at all

[TeensAreNotChildren]

I don't think it's necessary to say "get retarded"

.

That's like saying "get niggered." - it's simply not necessary to use such insulting language about human beings.

.

+1 to the radio version "Get Started"

-1 to the original version.

[trueStatic]

@TeensAreNotChildren Heaven forbid artists express themselves outside of the socially acceptable lexicon. -1 to high horsing censorship.

[MurphGiovanni]

@TeensAreNotChildren relax, fool..."retarded," in modern use, can connote the idea of "acting crazy, partying, etc."...in the same way that "gay" can simply connote a profoundly uncool action or person

either you are a middle-aged nerd who cannot fathom the idea of certain terms not being taken at face value...or a younger nerd w/ the same problem...you pedantic cock

[reppingAiEa]

@TeensAreNotChildren Meh -1 still puts it at 100 points ;)

[xKappash]

@TeensAreNotChildren:

Quit trying to be smart, idiot American.

[ferretsareawesome121]

wow. its so pathetic that we cant say retarded on the radio, so i never heard the real version until now. i feel annoyed!!

[miller306678]

thank god there is still a good quality version of this around. its a nice look back to a time before the world was run by pussies.

[stoprainingonme]

Fuck the IHC

[FRTtrier]

I love this song

[MokousSister]

Yeah this version flow better

[HubbaBubbaHaze]
