Jethro Tull - Aqualung

[Slumpnasty]

Here's a sick question: Would you rather have Casey Anthony, Jerry Sandusky, or Aqualung babysit your kids? J/K This joke was in poor taste.

[CharlieSmurffy]

@Slumpnasty Honest answer, Casey Anthony. The beauty of America is innocent until proven guilty. People seem to forget that important fact.

[Slumpnasty]

@CharlieSmurffy I respect your answer, but in my own humble opinion, guilty people are guilty. If the jury, the judge, or the media have inadequate information, then mistakes happen, and when mistakes happen, then criminals like Casey Anthony are turned-loose into the general public.

[willicat441]

God, I love all the genius people who show up and tell the world that Ian's writing about a

PEDOPHILE. Yeah, writing a song where the deviant homeless character need's YOU to warn the world. OMG, thank you for saving me.......

[Axemeistergitbox]

sitting on a park bench.......I dont know the wooords except park bench

[RenegadeNXW]

It does jetro

[jimmyGreenwood]

I heard somewhere that Martin Barre did that guitar solo in one or two passes, and that Jimmy Page was watching him while he did it! That is one of most most beautifully structured guitar solos I've ever heard.

[TheOneEyedHound]

Does it say 'Jetro'?

Like, Retro Jetro? Maybe we should change the word Retro to Rethro. Heh.

[FrozenFourthSeason]

That guitar is sick ! I love it ! sorry for my english

[condepro]

FUCK SOPA Ò_Ó

[eaf04]

@Champloo321 "I DO NOT own this audio. The right to this audio are owned by Chrysalis music." Yea, enjoy you time doing that, because America is coming to rape all of us with sopa soon.

[RenegadeNXW]

Great song! I'm just now starting to get into their music. Anyone have any song suggestions?

[ThelronFjord]

Hank Hill works out to this song!

[Thiscrapsannoying]

@ThelronFjord xD

[MicheleSbig]

che basso, santo iddio !

[shikakujenz]

I can never play this song loud enough...

[heygirlgirl98]

they should make a music video on this song..... it would be amazing!!!

[noshinematt]

DOPE.

[Daedricmanz]

The song is about a poor old lonely homeless man, with no home and who is very sick, whom people think or so think that he is a pedophile but in reality he only wants someone to help him out, but the people around him look down on him for what he is. And in the end of this song, he sadly dies, from the cold winter.This song in general is truly a good emotional song and is awesome to listen to.

[CaptainHurricane]

@Daedricmanz What part of "Eying little girls with bad intent" escapes you??

[KnightofNiNI]

@CaptainHurricane Not meaning to start a flamewar or anything on this beauriful song, but possibly the fact that this sentence may symbolise the way the world around the old man sees him?

[meowandmeow]

@CaptainHurricane That's what hobos do man

[LlamaBeetyPictures57]

@CaptainHurricane No the opening part is told for societies view of the old man the switches to his story so its kinda like a don't judge before you know what its like...

[exerminator2000]

i used the think it was, five little girls with fattened hens.

[MegaPeirce]

Sit down fill that one hit bong and relaxe and listen to a master!!!!

[mehrdadmishi]

Good memories from their concert. :)

30 ROCK !!

[cereo]

On here, over there, on vinyl or cd this is garbage. You can try to polish a turd but its still a turd.

[thelunaticinyourhead]

i want to name my second child aqualung, just so he'll grow up to be a filthy, homeless pedophile

[Shamanalaful]

God this is a bad version... I have the vinyl and its 100 times better on vinyl... my ears are bleeding! 1:03-2:25 is the best part and its freaking HORRIBLE

[meowandmeow]

@Shamanalaful dude try to pick up the 40th anniversary addition, it comes with new remastered vinyl and CD, and both sound lovely. If not that go with the 25th anniversary addition, it sounds pretty good too.

[Shamanalaful]

@meowandmeow I have the original vinyl, its freaking awesome ^ ^

but I bet the anniversary edition could be as good, if not better

[meowandmeow]

@Shamanalaful I prefer the new one because of what it adds, the originals are still there in the order we all know and love, but they add good amount of tracks that should have been on the original, my favourite being "Lick your fingers clean"

[Booboorella]

@Shamanalaful I have it and it's AWESOME

[Panaffle66]

love this song

[maaxgabrillo]

Very good i love it. hanks for the show

[ImPortugueseXD]

Thumps up if you are here because of GH : Warriors of Rock :D

[mtorres2866]

@ImPortugueseXD Sad but at least you've heard of this great band I guess.

[WeeboShepard]

beautiful music

[13ickCheese]

HEY AQUALONG! -Ron Burgundy

[meowandmeow]

this version is incredibly tinny sounding, not impressed.

[egset33]

@meowandmeow Thats what Ian Anderson said about your mum's moaning back in 77.

[meowandmeow]

@egset33 Will you kindly fuck off? I love Jethro tull, this recording is just not very good. Probably from one of the earlier digital remasters.

[egset33]

@meowandmeow umadbro?

[meowandmeow]

@egset33 no, I'm just a tad depressed that I share musical tastes with someone like you.

[egset33]

@meowandmeow Cool story bro. I used to be a Jethro Tull roadie, then I took an arrow in the knee.

[meowandmeow]

@egset33 Ralph, pls go

See, i can be a redditfag too

[zayastm]

@meowandmeow leave him, he must be a 14 year old with a very small dick that he has to throw the "your mom" joke because he cannot come up with anything better, and cannot identify the difference between trolling and giving your opinion. I agree, the sound quality is not the best, this does not mean I am saying JT is bad...

[TheLegendOfMegaMan]

99 people can go fuck themselves.

[lefiosalex]

Ian you are the MAN!!!! play that flute and rock on!!!

[patty271962]

Awesome !! Thank you

[ciminvisible]

thumbs up if "Art of Flight" brought you here..

[DaKingfish53]

I have some very hazy memories of seeing the band in concert in the 70's (77 or so, I think). Of course, most of my recollections of the 60's & 70's are pretty fuzzy ;-)

[JoesTheShow]

@DaKingfish53 im pround you figured out how to work a computer old man.

[DaKingfish53]

@JoesTheShow lol. This ol dog's still got a couple tricks up his sleeve!. Seriously, thanks for posting this great music that you can't find on the radio anymore.

[brandonfrye2000]

This song is the shit, period.

[smokeyguy]

His voice would echo in my ears along with the guitar last sunday.

[xXHitmanXxz]

Listening to this song on acid, and it's pretty trippy.

[tua39437]

@xXHitmanXxz Everything on acid is pretty trippy

[360Jboy]

@xXHitmanXxz

Its also awesome on mushrooms, acid is still a little too advanced for me lol

[Ichnusia]

There are 96 fuc*ers...

[Trower22]

Je pense que ce morceau le plus élaboré et le meilleur de Jethro Tull. Mais ils ont en fait plein d'autres excellent comme "Songs From The Wood", "Locomotive Breath, "To Cry You A Song", My God et Nothing Is Easy.

[ShadowSiren45]

Just heard this song for the first time in YEARS on the radio, and fell in love with it. Such a shame that gems like this aren't heard very often. *sigh*

LISTEN TO THE MUTHAFUCKING MUSIC YOU MUTHAFUCKING TROLLS GO JACK OFF SOMEWHERE ELSE IM HERE TO LISTEN TO MUTHAFUCKING JETHRO TULL... BITCH

[gippi78]

musica per veri intenditori

[ThereWhenItHappened]

I say give Jethro Tull credit... every lyric is not slurred or muffled; indeed I can understand every syllable down to the phoneme level. Even my parents can understand every word, and they are over eighty years old! I've yet to see a modern band that can reach that criteria.

[SuperMarioStar10]

Pretty amazing

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Remind me why you haven't inducted them yet?

[RedWolf3487]

@mikef677 Because The Rock And Roll Hall of Fame is a bunch of rigged bullshit.

[NeedHim6543]

What do u ppl think u do when u comment on a video its ur own personal comment on what u think about the video so I put my own input u don't like it again ignore it I don't why it bothers u guys so much. Again Metallica and Jethroll tull can't be compared that's my opinion. Enough I don't care what anyone has to say about what I say so grow up and stop arguing with it.

[Stag2506]

@NeedHim6543 Agreed.spot on!

Cant compare in the sense of different genre's and from different generations of rock/metal and the associated sub genre's.

Note also the themes are different in the lyrics and writing styles,the musical side is completely different. Metallica opting for heavier and more intense Riffs while Jethro Tull Opting for more laid out and varying pitches.

Metallica is METAL,I classify Jethro Tull as folk Rock personally.

Either way Legendary Bands! FUCK RAP!

[HeavensOfMetal]

@Stag2506 Little correction, Jethro are Prog rock, and only Metallica's first album was remotely what I would consider metal.

[Stag2506]

@HeavensOfMetal I'll stick by what i said,namely because most metal bands of the current generation take inspiration from Metallica,Metallica started a whole new generation of metal bands like Trivium,a7x,btf,dragon force. they all take bits and bobs from metallica.

Jethro Tull's lyrical style is folk,its written like a story being told with elements of poetry in there. thats folk rock.

anyway enough of that atleast we can agree its fucking awsome!

[MrMig3]

@Stag2506 dude, were can i start when you say current generation, it doesn't mean anything because there are countless styles on the current generation, the band you mentioned are just the more mainstream bands of the current generation, and the only band which has early thrash metal influences is trivium, all the others don't, a7x takes their influence and base from metalcore, and dragon force is power metal, a genre which doenst share many external influence whith thrash metal

[MrMig3]

@Stag2506 metallica is given way much credit than they deserve, people say they created thrash metal, when in fact there were thrash metal bands like venom before them, and metallica is also given credit for the continuation of the thrash genre, but it wasn't taken from them, but from earlier black/thrash metal bands, also metallica is given credit for death metal inspiration, but that inspiration was taken from thrash metal bands like krater and slayer

[HeavensOfMetal]

@MrMig3 You can't give Metallica ANY credit at all, as Dave Mustaine wrote most of what was on the first album, which was their only Thrash album.

Metallica deserve nothing but coal for their terrible lyrics, agonising vocals and out of place guitars.

[stoutishpayload]

@HeavensOfMetal hey take it easy man who cares who wrote whos music. just listen to this, the good stuff

[HeavensOfMetal]

@stoutishpayload "Take it easy"? Do I sound angry?

And I care, I think the authors own work should be credited.. Don't you?

[stoutishpayload]

@HeavensOfMetal actually you do sound angry... just calm down man. and i dont really care about credit, thats why im doing bad in my english class cuz i dont like to do "citations" on my essays

[HeavensOfMetal]

@stoutishpayload Stop patronising me.

Well if you're doing bad in English it shouldn't be an excuse to say "I don't care about crediting"..

[stoutishpayload]

@HeavensOfMetal well i can considering its a class where we basically only write essays haha...

[HeavensOfMetal]

@stoutishpayload Story of my life, this whole term we've only wrote essays on poems, gone through almost 15 poems now I'm sure,

[MrMig3]

@HeavensOfMetal agreed completely, mustaine gets the credit for the decent music metallica did on their first couple of albums

[HeavensOfMetal]

@Stag2506 Lady Gaga takes inspiration from Judas Priest, that doesn't make her a Metal act now does it?

I can't call any of those bands Heavy Metal, mostly Screamo and warped forms of modern Metal.

You've missed it in terms of music, you've just went and called most all bands Folk Rock bands, listen to how the music goes, listen to the VOCAL style instead of the lyrical style and try see where I'm coming from when I say progressive.

You said it, Jethro all the way.

[MrMig3]

@HeavensOfMetal metallica's first albums were metal, not only the first one, ride the lightning is as heavy and fast as the first album, i agree after the the black album the rest of their albums weren't metal, or at least not the metal they played at first

[MrMig3]

@Stag2506 dude rap is a good genre, maybe you're talking about midstream pop rap, but first old school rap had some great musicianship and lyrical message

[NeedHim6543]

Heyyy thanks forgiving me the idea tarter whatever salad goofy name anywaysssss. If u don't my opinion oh welll I don't care what u or anyone thinks.

[NeedHim6543]

Good for you humberto gillian lennon I don't care if you like jethrotull I Like Metallica they are better if you don't like what I say then don't respond toooo it. My opinion u don't like it OH welllllll!!!!!!! Get over it and everyone else.

[TheyCallMeTaterSalad]

@NeedHim6543

Then go and kiss Metallica's ass on one of their videos.

[Luxmaxnike]

@NeedHim6543 How is Metallica better in you can't compare them?

[NeedHim6543]

You can't compare jethro tull to Metallica cuz they sound way different and Metallica is better anyways. I don't like jethrotull too much but this song I like the beat toooo it gets stuck in ur head the beat to this song.

[HumbertoGillanLennon]

@NeedHim6543 Metallica sucks, Jethro Tull kicks Shitallica's ass...

[gubbtajm]

@NeedHim6543 "You can't compare jethro tull to metalica cuz they sound way different and metallica is better anyways." Quite the invalid argument there. Personal ideas stay in your own head please :)
