  • Neuruppin!!!

    

  • Gazo, This song its for you guy...congratulations.

  • im 12 what is this

  • 1:45

    I'm 17 and I think that no one can match that skill these day's

  • Excellent love this

  • Wizened little ruffian. Scraped out of the gutter. Awesome.

  • Been stuck in my head all day, classic brilliance beats any song released nowadays

  • I'm 18, and This is music.

  • Semplicemente FA-VO-LO-SA!

  • good to see people still listening to this in 2012. :)

  • A time where a voice was more powerful than looks! Now they just use autotuners and fake the actual voice.

  • I swear, I think of Casino everytime I hear this song. I fucking love this song. I always have. I love growing up to great music like this. :)

  • Hilton Valentine (lead guitarist) came to m school last year and i got to meet him. coolest thing ever. its weird to have met him when he was so old now and then to come here and see this video and think "wow, that's the same person." it blew my mind. hes lived through so much

  • Hank Williams Jr.'s is the best version.

    This original version is real jazzy, more jazz like than I remembered.

  • This song always reminds me of the scene in casino when joe pesci and his bro get beaten by the baseball bats and buried alive...

  • @S4NCT1FY, I'm 15 too, don't be ashamed to be part of our generation, because (as the comments on this video have proved) many people our age don't listen to the music of the dance/pop machine, and appreciate what it is that makes music true, and heartfelt. Let's just stop complaining about the fact that there are those that listen to music we don't like, and enjoy what we see as being real.

  • Smart ass or fool, young or old, we all live in the "House of the Rising Sun..."

  • excellent song. thumbs up if you are younger than 100 and dont give a shit about people's age

  • I was being born now....cool! @the U of A.

  • SIMPLY GREAT!

  • now this is a song with meaning behind it and real talent involved, not like most of today's songs

  • supernatural <3

  • 3:33 After that i have a hard time looking at anyone else but the guitar player.

  • @tophlovr Hahaha oh god I totally lost it

  • The doors ram jam

  • @milsap98 jimi hendrix led Zeppelin rollin stones umm idk

  • Hello, Im 15.

    I've listened to Music like this ever since I can remember.

    I feel ashamed being apart of today's generation.

  • mad keyboarding awesomeness!

  • Can you guys recommend any other good songs/bands from this genre that are similar to thi s one? Thanks :)

  • Eric Burdon used to be so fucking hot.

  • Ahh, the good o'l animals, best band and song in the WORLD!

  • Who's gives a fuck about your age lmao

  • Love this song!  The lead singer looks a littler bit like Joseph Gordon Levitt.

  • His voice is amazing! And I'm not gonna lie, he's pretty frickin hot

  • Amazing voice.. :o

  • THE BEATLES COVER

  • The Animals - Justin Beiber , Selena Gomez , Lady Gaga , Jonas Brothers , Nick Minaj , Taio Cruz , Ke$ha and others shits --'

  • the guy with the guitar is smiling at the end so wide cuz in his head he's like "nailed it."

  • @erikajordan89 i think its cuz he frying and just cant keep from grinning

  • I am 18 years old and i think this is a masterpiece.

  • If you didn't like this song you wouldn't have clicked play in the first place.

  • i hate to be that guy, but i seriously wanna know who thumbed this down. like what was going through your mind? "This song sucks," could not be in your head while listening to this song.

  • The beginning sounds like "Always Somewhere - Scorpions"

  • Jim was the only one bigger.

  • Jim Morrison's lil bro.

  • @Robert27962 is it really?

  • The rest of the band have no fucking idea.

    He was the true Messiah.

  • every 1 says i look like the lead singer of this

  • Go on the Geordies!! What a great video, keyboards and Eric Burdon's voice.

  • @SuperSimonuk not sure what you are inferring as Classof67 was correct in his/her spelling. Great song though. A real classic.

  • Comment removed

  • @ bouffetachips - Looks like you're the only one who didn't noticed that it's just a videoclip, by the way, a amazing one.

  • @cosmicspooky you forgot : Quick experiment - thumbs up this if you are 30 or older.

  • Am I the only one that noticed that their guitars were not plugged ??

  • eric burdon's voice transcends race

  • no one cares how old u are just shut up

  • I'm exactly 30, and often use "your" instead of "you're" by mistake, though I know the difference, because I'm not a native anglophone. Anyway, classic song.

  • 13 years old. I'm legendary.

  • 23yrs old...brought up with proper music...

  • Well, I am in the over 30 crowd. One way to distinguish from those under 30 is by our spelling. We use "you're" instead of "your" like comicspooky just did. We also know the difference between to and too they're, their and there. And, we are known by the music of the 60's. I'll take Eric Burdon any day of the week over Lil' Wayne LOL.

  • @Classof67 If you're over 30 you shouldn't say LOL...

  • @Classof67 bro, I'm 17 and I'd take Eric Burdon over Lil' Wayne too. Age means nothing. My generation has fools, just as yours does. I prefer Led Zeppelin over Nicki Minaj. I'd take RUSH over Coldplay.

    Age doesn't mean shit. :)

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey I totaly agree after the early early 70's music died (Rush is an exception though)

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey Shame, I like Coldplay.

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey - hey cmon now, Coldplay isn't bad...

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey 100%, age doesn't mean shit - UNLESS you accumulated at least a little bit of wisdom and maturity along the journey. In that case, shithead, it means everything!! What a pathetic mess you are if you don't realize this. The other side of the coin is that no matter HOW old some people get in years, their brains/mind NEVER mature or grow wiser. That's the problem that I see first-hand today. Young idiots that can't even read or write, let alone do math

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey True that to hell bro. I'm 17 too, and couldn't give a crap about these "modern" artists. I love classic rock, classical solo piano/violin (esp from the romantic era), and 80's hits. Though I enjoy a sprinkle of quality dubstep, and melodic metalcore. Yes, I'm weird...

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey This music means so much more for people growing up in 1964 mate... So yeah age does matter

  • @TheNutsyMan It doesn't mean much more as the song itself is much, much older than the 60's. This is just, by far, the best version to have ever been put on tape. Do not claim Rising Sun to be a 60's song though.

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey who the hell is nicki minaj lol

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey Right on, man

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey I agree completely man, I'm 17 too, I swear people are age just can't see what real music means anymore.

  • @MrFishyFishyFishey haha its funny how age means nothing

  • @Classof67 You do realise here in the UK we spell certain words differently to the USA...?

  • @Classof67

    ok thanks dude

  • 642 people missed the "like" button.

  • yes u r, sorry

  • That's a favorite of mine from so long ago. God, am I really that old??? Damn, I guess "hope I die before I get old" needs to get here REAL quick.

  • They look like its so easy

  • 641 Leute waren zu besoffen und haben den Gefällt Mir Buttom verwechselt

  • wo wo(8)

  • quick experiment, thumbs up this if your under 30 years old

  • @cosmicspooky I think most people that are over 30 years old dont really view comments if they use youtube :D

  • @cosmicspooky I'll comment instead. Yes I am under 30 years old.

  • @cosmicspooky 29 but hey < 30

  • @cosmicspooky That backfired. Turns out everybody loves this song

  • @cosmicspooky 19 exactly.

  • @cosmicspooky that's a record right there bro.

  • I sent myself here

  • I love it

  • Great song, it´s a shame modern music is all shit and made for the sheep...

  • @ryder570 you are right

  • Eric is so talented !!! too bad I am terrible singer :O

  • hmz Your little princess is here to please you

  • da hells up with the suits? i always imagined the animals being... ja cooler... not with yellow button-ups

  • wats with those haircuts lame af so unoriginal!!

  • this is the song i want blasting when im waiting on my front porch with a beer in hand and shotgun loaded ready to kill some zombies when that day comes.

  • @erikajordan89 i would agree

  • @erikajordan89 You are an "Alivist".

    The day will come when zombies are treated with respect

    and dignity under the law.

    Erika, I'm reporting you to the Politically Correct Police.

    Shotguns, beer, hating zombies?

    What's next? A cigarette dangling from your lips?

  • @fntime You're either joking or completely insane. Either way, it was worthy of a chuckle.

  • Comment removed

  • @fntime well I'm terrified now. My comment was just my imagination all in good fun. Their are no "politically correct police" in my mind. An alvist? So is that something to do with Alvin and the Chimpmunks or something? And yea I wouldn't mind a fine, rolled cigarette to go with my beer. cheers.

  • @erikajordan89 I thought you had a SOH, lighten up!

  • @erikajordan89 haha yep same here

  • they say Chandler discovered Hendrix, but not before Hendrix discovered himself

  • God Bless rock an roll.

  • Is that a Weasley playing the second guitar?

  • @arsnlsocc hahaha i wish! :D

  • @arsnlsocc that's a bass....

  • @vanpire411 k, well a Bass guitar is still a guitar

  • wwwreverbnationcom/juliebrooke­degrie, a friend sings this song and sounds amazing, check out the link, i'm going to see if i can get her to upload on youtube for all to hear. I think she sounds like a updated version of Joan Baez. No LIE!!! take 45 second out of your day, i like to get feedback + or -

  • @CrispyBaconMan4 Whore houses aren't that clean.

  • @CrispyBaconMan4 Okay. But where is the rising sun? ;P

  • @CrispyBaconMan4 thats awesome!

    

  • @CrispyBaconMan4 don't follow the maze it leads to desolation: a highly overrated destination

  • @CrispyBaconMan4 thats good hahaha how long did it take you

  • This song makes me feel so horny

  • i wanna learn this on keys

  • @cowbelltell let's do it, i have just learned it on guitar :)

  • i dont think the animals quite realised how amazing this song they made really is

  • Something's wrong. The video is only showing MY views.

  • this is the most popular music video on youtube, i'm guessing

  • it is just not the same as the original, it lacks passion from the singer

    altough the instrumental is good

  • there country hicks

  • 360p HD yo!

  • I agree....how the hell can (now) 635 people dislike this CLASSIC ??

  • K.I.Z. - Neuruppin

  • Was anyone else here because ForceSc2Strategy liked it?

    

  • Eric Burdon's voice is forever playing in my heart..♥

  • Lots of great singers have recorded this song - but only one was accompanied by Alan Price on Keyboard

  • The real music nowadays died... :((

  • Super!!!

  • Force sent me here.

  • @Dripcy Good taste of music sent me here. ;)

  • Damn such a great voice and track

  • I would be happy if i was born in the 50's so i could listen to good music all the day in the radio. The Music in the Radio today is so bad..

  • @FabiNeedsNoNick Why don't you make a radio station with music from that period??

  • @KingGoomba19 Tell me how.

  • @FabiNeedsNoNick Well you first need determination because it isn't gonna happen overnight. You can then either go on NPR (National Public Radio) and have your own time slot in your own county/town where you play your music...That's what MOST people do if they want to be heard on the radio...If they see they are popular/liked and listened to a lot then they could possibly make the jump to their own station...But you know there are already radio stations that play every type of music...

  • @KingGoomba19 Well, im only 13 so its gonna be hard to have a own station. But ill check NPR out.

  • @FabiNeedsNoNick Well if you are really passionate about the whole thing and spreading the wonders of 60's music then you at least have a good 10 years in front of you to plan ahead :D I would highly suggest you start on a college radio because that's honestly where most people start (Also the NPR as mentioned) and also more-ish people would listen...However it IS 60's music with college students so that might not bode well hahahah Good luck :P

  • @KingGoomba19 lol, I checked NPR, but i live in Germany, and there no stations :c

    But Thank you for the idea!:P

  • @FabiNeedsNoNick Ohhh NPR is for the US hahahah but I'm pretty sure there has to something similar in Germany...and yeh...College radio is still an option :) And no prob :D Actually there is an NPR in Germany :D npr.org/worldwide/berlin/

  • @KingGoomba19 I live 281 miles away from Berlin ;(

  • @FabiNeedsNoNick Well some radio stations broadcast over the whole eastern state of the USA which is WAY more than 281 miles....So there might be stations all across Germany....Maybe send them a nice email and ask a few questions? I'm almost certain they would reply to a 13 year old enthusiast such as yourself :D

  • @KingGoomba19 I'll try! Ty! ;D

  • @FabiNeedsNoNick DITTO

  • @FabiNeedsNoNick 90s were much better

  • @TheRidersChoice Not for me :P

  • the keyboard jey colours are the opposite way round :O

  • 633 people should be put out an airlock.

  • Mr. Spock?

  • Claims it's High Definition.

    640x360

  • @Uzerc its high definition for that video. You seriously can't expect 720p from a video from 1964 can you? =L

  • I'm 15.I'm hungarian.And it's amazing.

  • Comment removed

  • This was the 1st I leard on guitar.

  • theres a black guy on the e train that sings this

  • @Stevezom

    there is also a guy who does this on Harmonica.. i think it's either the 1/9 train..

  • 632 дебила

  • Love it

  • I estimate we need another 1,200 likes to get rid of that red on the dislike bar... get clicking!

  • I know i'm one :)

  • Awesome how Eric Burdon and the Animals look more dangerous and rebellious here with their "Beatles" suits and their sneering than any group out today!! Gotta love it! Plus no auto tune in sight! The 60s and 70s were truly a golden age of rock and pop music.
