Rage Against the Machine- Down on the Street

[IvanMilat1]

I love RATM and think the cover is excellent. However, I prefer the original - no idea why, I just do :-)

[timbo177]

Ain't my thing. The Stooges didn't need to be covered.

[MisterMKdick]

@timbo17 I agree with you.this is the radio friendly version of the stooges.

[arouska]

Good, but De La Rocha is no Iggy Pop.

(I'm kind of reluctant to say Ron Asheton is a better guitar player than Tom Morello)

[cogwheel756]

@arouska Good to be reluctant, because you would be wrong

[SnakeChicken911]

awesome!!!!

[LostFREEDOM]

amazing music.

[clovisr9]

très bon!!!

[whisperer46]

stupid fuck...this pronko

it is iggy pops song!

ratm just took from him ... -_-

[foolycoolytheband]

@whisperer46 my friend this is what us in music call a cover song, as in was cover a song as a tribute of our respect for the original creator. rage are being fan boys of iggy and the stoogies with this cover, think if they reallly wanted to steal it why would they give it the same name. the original is much beter though i have to say

[whisperer46]

@foolycoolytheband true,true..... sure! ... it's just my bad english xD

[goober1537]

I played this song during the London riots.

[chailizard]

@goober1537 that's the third comment I've read about Rage and those riots, this music has nothing to do with stealing fifty grand from small businesses and burning down random people's houses so I'd invite you to shut the fuck up.

[goober1537]

@chailizard Chill bro. I have no intentions of bashing a country for a little revolution o.o

[willbo456ify]

Tom Morello ya fuckin'' genius.

[LostFREEDOM]

love this song

[HaulinHearse]

@LookOutThree that sounds kind of hot

[MarloesAndFriends]

I love it

[fortheloveoftunes]

I like "RATM" but the original is way better! .-)

[samruiz0000]

Iggy Pop & The Stooges r punk gods xD

[HaulinHearse]

I think this cover sounds like shit.

[blablabla9ish]

This is the balls!!! They do this icon of a song justice but you can't replace the iggmans creepy feel!

[kk1323kk]

cover is flattering!! the Stooges guitarist is a god

[tacozzrgood]

Sweet Stooges cover.

[riric666]

Cover The Stooges Lp Fun House

[Stevenbadman]

Kïllïng-Mäschiënën

[TheMErdShow]

And a very good one.

[TheMErdShow]

The Spice Girls didn't steal this from RATM Plus This isn't even there song It's a cover from Iggy Pop & The Stoges.

[Justinlikespizza]

Seriously, don't feed the trolls. Just listen to the amazing music.

[xXPKMA77YPKXx]

@MrPonko Jesus! Take some Ritalin! Oh, and how could Rage 'steal' this from The Spice Girls? They performed this song long after Rage recorded it. And yes, i am aware that it is a cover, before anybody says.

[samturner31]

@MrPonko RATM are completly original. as if the spice girls wrote any of there own music. YOUR A BRAINWASHED MAINSTREAM ASS. now go get a life and some taste

[MrPonko]

@samturner31 YOU'RE A JEALOUS HATER OF THE SPICE GIRLS GO AND KISS RATMS FEET

I HATE YOU HATE YOU HATE YOU!!!!!!!!!1

[ScrewNormality1]

there is only one word to describe this song. and that word is...sexy. im serious. zacks screams and that guitar riff are highly arousing

[Koolkitties]

Pretty cool cover, but why doesnt zack ever sing ever?

[MrPonko]

@Koolkitties It's because he CAN'T BLOODY SING!!!!

HE'S A THIEF THAT DOESN'T WRITE HIS OWN MUSIC ONLY STEALS FROM THE BEAUTIFUL PRINCESSES HE IS JEALOUS OF THE SPICE GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!

[samturner31]

@MrPonko FUCKING RETARD ! hes made these songs his own by changing them completely. There early stuff was completly original 'killing in the name of' , testiy and all that sruff

[MrPonko]

@samturner31 HE DIDN'T WRITE THIS BLOODY SONG HE STOLE IT FROM SOMEONE ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

ORIGINAL WRITTEN BY SPICE GIRLS HE WILL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS THEM SO HE STEALS THEIR MATERIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[ssijjajcaalkoholika]

@MrPonko lol ponko lol

[TheBrando382]

@MrPonko kiss my ass nigga

[zlowhh]

Really to the one that he does not like, it is for that he is a lover of justin bieber and is a complete ignoramus

[siemenspill]

''an video'' really ? you were the fastest sperm?

[SuperLAFWorld]

@siemenspill This comment!! Yes!!

[TheJtd123]

they took our jobs

[whisperer46]

this guy pronko is right, they "stole" this song from iggy pop. (its doesnt matter...)

he just said it so stupid hh ._.'

[xnightofragex]

@Rafire66 I play guitar and bass, and maybe if you knew even the smallest amount about music theory you wouldn't kiss Tom Morelo's shitty ass so much and realize that he is a sub par musician. Also go suck a bag of dicks

[SAVEresearch]

@xnightofragex Oh so conforming to music theory standards is what decides if you are a good musician or not? The feel and passion behind a song doesn't matter?

Knowing music theory doesn't affect how good a song is. A truly good song can be appreciated by both non-musicians and musicians alike.

[BledaTurk]

most honourful group of usa

[foodylyzenko]

very nice cover

[Niiicolli]

very fuck this cover of stooges!

[smurf1ize]

fuck u haters u obviously dont know what ur talking about u stupid motherfucker! RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE FOR LIFE!!!

[MrPonko]

Spice Girls > Rage

Thumbs up if you agree Rage fans suck donkey's dick

[Rafire66]

@MrPonko FUCK YOU!! YOU SUCK DONKEYS DICK PRICK

[MrPonko]

@Rafire66 <----- PROOF Rage fans suck donkeys dick as I said...

[eddiehoboken10]

@MrPonko And I say you were teabagged by all RATM's band members years ago and your still angry about it. 

[Rafire66]

@MrPonko proof you suck pop singers dicks 

[Rafire66]

@MrPonko SUCK MY DICK!!

[BaggedGnome]

Really good cover.

[philosovitz]

Guys..it's a "COVER". Done very well I must say.

[MrPonko]

@philosovitz Yeh the band is terrible and can't write their own music so they have to steal from others.

These THIEFS need to write their own songs and stop stealing from our beautiful princesses the Spice Girls!

Thumbs up if you hate people stealing from the music of our fashion queens!!!!

[RanibalAngel]

@MrPonko hey you,RATM Make cover of evrything,so man...ITS A COVER,all of their 1st album is a cover,at second album some songs is not some covers,on 3rd the same thing of seconds but without a little cover,so man RATM make covers and do some songs

[AweInspiringTSH]

@RanibalAngel I don't know where the fuck you got your information but Rage's first three albums were all original songs. Only the Renegades album was covers.

[bucketheadandtoolftw]

@RanibalAngel what you just said made little to no sense at all

[Bikage21]

@MrPonko Rage DOES write their own music homie.....

[orchidtender]

I like Rage, and this is pretty damned great, but NOBODY can touch the Stooges.

[AnD0jUsTiCe0FoR0aLL]

DUDE! Your picture is blurry so the band is not rage. (sarcasm)

[derrick10]

I F&^&ING LOVE THIS SONG!

Anyone who dislikes can go Republican Cheese,........

[AUSlockyAUS]

Guys. listen to the song.....its rage.

Fucking awesome too!

[platinumat]

Despite our obvious differences, I think we can all agree, that we've all got ...BEIBER FEVER!!!!!!

[hIghQ2k8]

[Krakle]

@MrPonko ..are you retarded?

[Vaginaattori]

@MrPonko you retard?

[shotgunsrbest]

@MrPonko Holy shit i think it is fake to.

[jeevsrocks]

@MrPonko holy shit it's a troll! OMG everybody, a troll! QUICK, STAMP IT OUT AND HARVEST IT'S INNARDS

[PELLOWHEAD]

Iggy would be proud.

[xnightofragex]

I KNEW when I listened to this that Tom Morello would not be able to pull off the guitar solo from the original song, bland and basic guitars as always from him.The vocals aren't great either but that's to be expected.Do yourself a favor and listen to the original not this mangled cover

[BetterThanCableTV]

@xnightofragex There is a big difference between ability and choice.

[Rafire66]

@xnightofragex fuck you jackass, Tom does different solo's, he doesnt copy shit, he improvises and do yourself a favour and GTFO youtube, you cant do better or shit

[CrazyDan1984]

needs to be louder!!!

[Senyaax]

This Song Is Amazing D:

[aaronrypful]

LOL!!! jajaja xD

[tommyisacoolcat]

they just make you want to punch someone in the face

[Brollyhero99TOP10]

And has anyone else noticed that how hot this song is, sexually and amazingly! :D

[JonnyLIF]

one of the best covers i've hear, all covers included

[xjessiexcorex]

This is orgasmic!

[andoger1]

man awesome cover of the stooges

[GreenMagic89]

who are you? all of you

[Brollyhero99TOP10]

In my opinion, this album is the best "cover" album ever created!!! :)

[ITAMrPink]

@Brollyhero99TOP10 It could not be differently: it's Rage's cover album.

[TheGreaterGood80]

Never thought I'd hear Zach making an Iggy-style yelp

[jagexfailshard]

oh come on! oh come on! oh come on! yeah yeah yeah! oh come on! oh come on! oh come on! yeah!

[darkfox356]

7 people missed the like button

[maurikoira07]

@darkfox356 crappy comment, shut up. good song though.

[Malzarin]

The power of this song comes from the slow driving force of the riff. Like most versions of this I've heard, it is too fast. Don't get me wrong, it is damn good, but there is incredible power in tempo. You gotta make 'em want every note!

[Stevenbadman]

@Malzarin

I totally agree and that's one of the things I fidn the hardest when I play this song, part of me wants to shred all out. So I just squeal the lyrics instead. In a good way.

[animwoman]

Renegades is one of my fav albums... They're sooo good!! Love them!!! I didn't knew it was a cover though, I like their version better, but we must give the credit to the stooges! I think their best cover is Street fighting man!

[MetroidFan621]

Not very RATM sounding with the exception of the solo. Really good for a cover though.

[Stevenbadman]

They should also cover "1970", "Gimme danger" and "I wanna be your dog". It suits them :)

[ktk72593]

Hey everyone come and see my rage videos in higher sound and video quality! Go to my channel or search for Ktk72593. Have a suggestion on a song? Feel free to private message and ill put it up with lyrics.

[ObiWan777]

Love The Stooges, love RATM, this song is fucking BONKERS.

[CaliforniaTD]

This is actually probably RATM best cover song, and they did a lot of them which I didn't like.

[osocali1]

this is ok but no way close to the energy of Iggy...can't even touch it....not to mention if ya heard it live...

[DiegosHideout]

Almost better than the cover!

[supeazre]

Good cover. RATM is a pretty good band and the Stooges still have the best vocals.

[dnlrsn9]

they take the covers to another level

[backtoharmony]

Wow, Love it dude. Thanks. Give us more. Now were talking Rock & Roll.

[Astartes40000]

I don't like RATM but I'll say this cover is good

[TomtomTM1]

Ratm is the best band ever!

Very genious sounds :D

[Stevenbadman]

The haters can shut the fuck up. I love both bands, still have a preference for The Stooges, man, how hardcore-awesomely-visionary their shit was, unbelievable. I still love RATM, they also brought an awful lot to the game...

Anyway. My original comment was gonna be this: "Morello giving the props to Ron Asheton, foo-kin-bri-li-ant!!!!"

[averilleX]

Bollocks. The rhythm section is fine but whatsihname hopeless on vocals.

[brollyhero99]

I love RATM!!! Even if this isn't their best song it is still a pretty good cover! :D

[skinglasswire]

Is it just me or does Sleep now in the fire sounds like a slight homage to TV Eye, the theory came to me when i tried to play tv eye. And of course i couldn't play it, but for each time i played it started to sound like the riff from sleep now in the fire.

[Sl4shRocks]

watch?v=Ua7br2ge4J4

RATM MIX!

[xxparamorexx12345]

good cover, but nothing like the stooges one

[blackbloodvomitorium]

Personally I think this one is better... more complete. Mc5's orginal of kick out the jams is better than Rage against the machines tho.

[Sl4shRocks]

watch?v=Ua7br2ge4J4

[BestVideosEver01]

so its RATM self titled first album, then whats the order of the other albums release dates?

[blackbloodvomitorium]

self titled 92, evil empire 96, battle of los angeles 99, and then renegades in 2000.

[rapcorerocks]

then battle of mexico city

[AnnoyingBeast]

@rapcorerocks dat was a live album, there wer no new songs.

[KGUNZ4life]

Dont be a STOOGE RAGE ON!

[Chubachus]

what if youre an iggy fan?

[midnightrambler03]

This is shit. If you're a Rage fan, go buy a Stooges album.

[camhirtle]

If you don't like the song, piss off and dont listen to it, moron. Nobody here cares for your crappy opinion.

[directorcoolbeans444]

@camhirtle fucking trolls huh?

[atillathehun101]

not a big rage fan...huge stooges fan...this aint a bad cover

[MetroidFan621]

@atillathehun101 Nor am I really, but I agree this is a really good cover.

[aaahhhkeverr]

It's one of my fav RATM songs, no matter what... xD

[FuzzyDice11]

This is great. Original is better. End of discussion.

[CinemaZebra]

Because your opinion is the only one that matters.

[ElarUno]

he speaks truth though

Zach is no Iggy.

[JohnnyTheTiger]

Fucking Iggy!

[Hungmoey]

brilliant video m8

RATM ROCK!!!

[rafaelislas]

Eh, its not bad, really, but when compared to the original, it just doesn't live up to the magic that the Stooges created.

[confinedspace2006]

you have either never heard the original, or you are just a dick. bye!

[confinedspace2006]

i love RATM, I've seen them live 7 times, I own all their LPs/singles, yet I'm not a mindless idiot who's like shit must say it's amazing just because it's Rage, you can like Rage yet admit one of their songs is not that good, this is clearly not better the original, I bet if you asked the band themselves they'd agree as The Stooges are probably one of their influences, also how can the original be shite this version is not that different from it? if the original is shite so is this.

[sanjivkhan]

well said ConfinedSpace, these mindless idiots who call themselves Rage fans are fools, calling the original of this song 'shite' is the most ridicolous thing I've heard in a while, Iggy and the Stooges helped create the landscape of punk rock which Rage built upon, the disrespect for The Stooges and Iggy Pop on here is disconcerting and just plain wrong.

[URM0MW4NT5MYJUNK]

live 7 times!!!! i hate u lol jk jk.....im just jealous i havent even seen them once!!!

[dairyboy69us]

yep i concur

[joeownsfase]

It's an alright cover. Pig Destroyer did the song great justice when they did their version, but nothing lives up to the original

[hdimanlig]

awesome solo!

[deadboys1010]

Eh, its not bad, really, but when compared to the original, it just doesn't live up to the magic that the Stooges created.

[lovestrength]

AWSOOOOOME!!!aaoouutch.. my neck hurts after that one.. outch outch.RATM<3<3<3

[Brenho]

No-one could ever do it better than Ig and the stooges but Rage are the only other band to make a decent attempt

[jazzDiscovery]

monkey sound :p, it owns at 2.00

[cellojordan]

Hmmm... it's alright. Zach de la Rocha just doesn't have the incredible sneer that Iggy has. Sure, Zach is terrifying when he raps about bringing down the establishment; but, he just comes off as weak here when he's singing about being a stud. Leave machismo to Iggy.

Plus, the original was just recorded so much better. The echo makes it sound like Ron Asheton is beating his guitar rather than playing it. This cover just doesn't capture the brutality and insanity of the original.

[rapsthatfary]

ratm done the best cover of this song! love it:D

[karjane]

wouah! quelle reprise des stooges!!!!

contre-temps, pédale wah wah...! un must isnt?

[gaffle1tdub]

I love the stooges more than anything, but this kicks major ass. way better than I was expecting.

[F1brawfa]

its so awsome i8 tottaly forgot about that number and its so kickas
