  • sry my english is bad but what sings the woman at the beginning in this video ?

  • @Kayuism she says: "My man's got a heart like the rock cast in the sea." The line is from Bessie Smith's song called St. Louis Blues.

  • My man got a heart like a rock cast in the sea

  • Me enamore de la desesperación que exhala su alma a través de su vos, la tristeza desesperada y la desesperada tristeza que trata de desvanecer entre trago y trago...

  • Respond to this video...

     the black and white band are the zombies there great

  • Mesmersing!

  • Beautiful.

  • i love this video!

  • This song is great. Perfect for Kill Bill. I really love it

  • R.I.P Malcolm McLaren !

  • If the video is self-produced then congratulations it's cracking

  • amazing man. amazing talent. amazing music. RIP

  • mega song.

  • I am so very sad to hear the passing of Malcolm Mclaren.

    I had respected Mr Malcolm Mclaren's music since I was in school...He was one the most creative artistes and producers I had ever heard and seen be it his album themes and fashion concepts created alongside the list of great artistic people backing him up like Mr Ds-ART and The Supreme Team, etc.

  • RIP Malcolm Maclaren.....DAMN!

  • WOW..brilliant.

  • Mesmerizing....

  • R.I.P.

  • Mesmerizing...

  • This is, without a doubt, one of the best efforts I've seen on youtube. Bravo, sir.

  • well done-thx

  • R.i.Pizzle.

  • Excellent video.

    R.I.P. Malcolm McLaren

  • great!

  • Beyond excellent.... thank you !!

  • Thank you so much for making this video. It's truly one of the best songs I've ever heard.

  • love this..

  • @WavelengthRose thank you for posting this on your site Rose, fantastic!

  • Malcolm McLaren is a real creative artist! Great song !

  • wonderful vid. Colin should duets with quality female singers now. Maybe contemporary black blues singers.

  • amazing voice

  • awasome.

  • Some of the greatest art comes from the greatest pain. English promoter Malcolm McLaren has used older music for many years and brought in into the mainstream. I wish I knew what this original he sampled from is. It is powerful to watch.

  • it's a mix of 'st. louis blues' and 'she's not there'.

  • @kil2gore The Zombies: She's Not There.

  • The Intro is just mesmerizing !! I´m so glad it was used in the OST of Kill Bill , otherwise , probably I´d never ever hear about it , since the "She´s not there" version is not nearly as good as with Bessie .

  • Awesome movie!

    Great job!

    Congratulations!

  • Great music!!!

    Fantastic work!!!

  • Is this from a movie?

    What's the film???

  • @darkelitecommander The Kill Bill Series

  • @disturbedshawn

    sorry i meant is the part with Bessie Smith singing at the beginning from a movie?

  • @darkelitecommander Thats Bessie Smith - St. Louis Blues

  • may i know plzzzzzzzzzzzz what the actualy meaning and whats the situation behind this song???i can understand the lyrics but can somebody plz tell me whats the actual situation??like for what the women is sad????regards.hrishi

  • The interplay in the song is between the man and the woman. She is sad because she has broken his heart, and he is talking about how evil she was. The song is about a devastating and broken relationship. Like the relationship between Beatrix and Bill in Kill Bill.

  • Kewl ^___^

  • This version was "created" for Kill Bill???

  • Fantastic tune and video !!!

  • Awesome Job!!

  • Bessie was amazing wasn't she?? love that old time ragtime....

  • I know that the guy voice is the "She's not there" by Zombies... who's the woman voice?

  • The woman is Bessie Smith singing St. Louis Blues

  • Love this song. Haven't seen this video before. Great post.
