Fatboy Slim - Bird of Prey

[videorelativismo]

so the hero to spain couldn marry the ruskij red hot riding hood so he shot himself inside the sun outta an f 15. stylish harakiri he might say, probably the fbi monks still want that f 15 back, that is orbiting rounna da dark side of the moon. that is camouflage, that is the egol that is the legend he was a man who knew too much

[waggabiggadoo]

peyote cactus, stars, black and white, eagles flight,

[123rosebush]

But, who cares? I love this song!!!

[123rosebush]

So the real song starts 1 minute and 20 seconds later? Really?!

[musiclover81813]

You have to remember when that was said by LBJ and the republican who he was running against...LBJ was pretty progressive except as far as getting us into vietnam even deeper than we were......what was it really for? not really the oil, our commitment to the French? Prob to scare the soviets and chinese into believing how committed we were (or we needed to be committed LOL) in opposing communism. This was a great time for music and this pilot is having a reverie like the businessman in weapon..

[Tobacc0]

"...we must either love each other, or we must die.."

LBJ kinda sounds like a not-yet-crazy, but-half-cracked apocalyptic preacher to me. Talk like that today and they won't ever give you the football, Mr. President...

[inconsistanttruth]

first time i've seen all the music from one artist be great, usually its mostly great with a few good and the odd bad.

[keithmurraymusic]

all walken, all the time.

[voncheeseburger]

Go into your kitchen and get a yoghurt, then put this song on and spin or run in tight circles. Finished? Now try taking a piss standing up.

[Smoblikatt]

@voncheeseburger Peeing standing up wasnt a problem at all............since on my way up to the bathroom i fell up the stairs and pissed myself.

[b33t]

Flying yes.



[Vulcanboy607]

The Hunter is such a beautiful aircraft, and even the T.7 manages to look pretty, which most T-jets can't pull off. Even if it is in USAF markings, it's grace and elegance are so prominent in this. excellent song as well :D

[MrSlink338]

110 people can't fly..

They haven't fantasy **

[djelyqueen]

QUE ROLOOOOOTAAA PFFF ESA VOZZZ.... ME VIAJA TOTALMENTE

[rollnrockOSCAR]

nobody should ever mix with Jim's voice!

[cuvautoofficial]

The first time I heard this song, I was on an airplane. It's the perfect song for flying.

[MrTheo1000]

1:11 Songs starts here. No thanks neccessary

[lote1234567891011]

thats coming out of his paycheck!!

[XxSOLARDRAGONxX]

Yeah, i used to be a pilot but then.... i took an arrow to the knee.. *rimshot* (no one laughs)

[Zdeadbb]

Butterflies effect!

[luuko656]

Is it me, or does the pilot looks alot like Norman Cook aka Fatboy Slim?

[Hugo411]

You tube comments: Where adults can display their inner Middle Schooler.

[LFCEOIN]

@Hugo411 lol

[martinethson]

When the audience fails to see the genious in simplicity a genial masterpiece like this is doomed to be recoknized only by few. And than it is elevated as a work of art, cause quality comes in the minds of few.

[SheikhTaqiyyameister]

@martinethson

You have outsmarted me, James. I believe what you say to be 100% true.

THUD survivors were uncommon. What happened? Dude did not maintain his flight pattern? That is surely going to get noticed. When he don't come back.

Did you hear what the North Vietnamese did to John McCain when he came down? Shoved a spear into his balls and went to town?

His leg was broken. He couldn't run. It was a long drag to Hanoi.

84 years old or not - that guy loves his country.

[johnbozi]

never sick of the doors or fatboy great clip

[SkyTimeWatches]

Hawker Hunter!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D One of the most beautiful aircraft ever.

[TheMachinimaFilms]

So who else likes "Fatboy Slim, weapon of choice" XD

[josnapolis]

even in this time jim morrison rules.great song

[Vulcanboy607]

What the hell is a Hawker Hunter T.7 doing in USAF Markings?!

[ScottandTanyaYoung]

@Vulcanboy607 It was all a dream!

[SkyTimeWatches]

@Vulcanboy607 I know!!!!

[komamano1]

boutou ha hinagiku ka



[dearbornerik]

This is one of my fave Vids by fatboy thanks dude you rock !

[gorpusasasa]

Jim' voice ?

[thesparitan]

I love breadyman's likes, they are always enjoyable to watch.

[88Mobius]

I will always love the hawker hunter.

[drknudy]

1.) Put this song on mute & play mind heist (from inception) first then hit play on this video. 2.) When the mind heist video stops pause both and restart mind heist. press resume on this video and enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[MadGameBoy]

MEH...this one i cant really get into like his other songs :P

[MournTillDawn]

@MadGameBoy fair play, this ones one of my favourites but that's because drum and bass is one of my favourite genres :D

[Robonij]

Today is november 3rd! my mind is now blown

[hogge87]

Isn't that a Hawker Hunter? Did the USAF ever use them?

[javakris]

@hogge87 Yeah.. the tail flash on the plane is also RAF. I think the people who made the video weren't worried about being accurate. 

[ericitzhak]

for all those wondering how will it feel like to fly a jet plane, belive me you won't be sittin' n' smillin' like this guy :)

[Quizzical97]

I wanna know what its like to fly in a jet!

[agumon12]

@Quizzical97

Imagine someone pushing you through the air. It's absolutely amazing.

[Quizzical97]

@agumon12 I have flown from one end of this country to the other several times, even got a chance to visit Germany. The take-off feeling is one of pure exctasy for me. I want to fly in a jet capable of breaking th sound barrier. Hell yea!

[torsionroach]

Iccarus, who did fly too close to the sun and incurred the wrath of apollo, fell no further than you.

[paulsquireticus]

@torsionroach twat



[sethmoyer]

Where's the ejector seat? Why is there a modern parachute? :P

[MrAdomus]

OMG! That's Jim Morrison!!

[eottoe2001]

@MrAdomus Here is something ironic. Morrison's father was George Stephen Morrison who was the US Commander in the Gulf of Tonkin in Vietnam. The Gulf of Tonkin incident lead to the escalation of the Vietnam war. Who knew?

[doktorzoom]

"American planes, full of holes and wounded men and corpses took off backwards from an airfield in England...The formation flew backwards over a German city that was in flames. The bombers opened their bomb bay doors, exerted a miraculous magnetism which shrunk the fires, gathered them into cylindrical steel containers , and lifted the containers into the bellies of the planes. The containers were stored neatly in racks..."

--Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five

[MARRANUELGARZA]

american hawker hunter?? hahaha, dont think so

beauuuuuuuuuutiful plane, but never in service with USAF

[eottoe2001]

@MARRANUELGARZA It took me awhile that it was a Hawker Hunter.

[Cschive]

I love this song, although I can't put it on my music playlist, it's too much to have when I'm doing homework, or driving, or just relaxing

[LunaSeaSane]

It's saying that waging war is insanity.

He never went on the flight. Thus, the gourney, the room he's lying in... a dilusional man in a psychiatric ward.

[Clarestovold]

We were played this song in our art class as a part of drawing through musical inspiration, and for the rest of the week people couldn't stop singing the lyrics 'Bird Of Prey' at random intervals of the day.

[rahulkachru]

@Clarestovold well its true...catchy Morrison's voice ....maybe he hypnotized himself while singing this song .

[rahulkachru]

The voice is immaculately Morrisonique !!!

[bulmeruk]

@rahulkachru Please take that comment back.

[rahulkachru]

@bulmeruk where should i take the comment, it doesn't want to go back , though i told the comment to comeback but it wants to stay , so i guess i have no control on it , it wants to lead a personal life then i say go ahead , what can i say mate , you create them and then they betray you , i can understand how you must be tormented with my comment still hanging in there, all i can say is that chillax and enjoy the song.

[bulmeruk]

@rahulkachru nice effort.

[wizzzer1337]

Battlefield 3!

[Klibanophoros101]

For some reason this song makes me want to hijack a jet fighter, fly around at the speed of over 2000 km/h. Even if i get arrested for doing that it would be worth it.

Air Force pilots are such lucky bastards.

[FSFLIGHTproductions]

Best music video EVER.

[eeyore077]

great song great voice great video....

[PromiserOfDeath]

Euphoria at its Best!

[Pittttttttttttttttt]

[MrCockSlut]

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

@MrCockSlut shut up also learn to write

[purplefood1]

That kid just got told how to count...

[pcpreacher]

takes one min for the song to start? may have to give it a thumbs down for that.

[Harris91]

@pcpreacher faggot, it's called narrative.

[TehBrutus]

@Harris91

Yes, why don't we insult another person on Youtube.

Honestly, I'm sick and tired of seeing people fight and insult each other or their mothers because they dont agree on a point of view- true, I'll probably get a slew of insults myself for simply posting this, but I'm just reiterating both mine and others thoughts of the quality of the audience of Youtube.

[Harris91]

@TehBrutus Deal with it

[DIZLproductions]

@Harris91 i see you like to derp? derping is ur sport isnt it?

dick... just shut up and i agree TehBrutus!!! POWER TO YOU!!!!!!

[TheHandsomeCrab]

@TehBrutus u r gay

[TheHandsomeCrab]

@shawn2007g u r gay

[XBillums]

@TehBrutus it's the internet dawg... people are assholes because it's anonymous and they can get away with it, don't waste your time policing youtube comments

[dearbornerik]

@TehBrutus then dont watch it butthead !

[TheMachinimaFilms]

@TehBrutus to shae

[OSTlewstein]

@TehBrutus i would like to see them comment like they do to some one in the street to there face. i agree with you 100% this is the qualitiy of humans today wish i was born 100 years ago

[SheikhTaqiyyameister]

@TehBrutus 'Honestly, I'm sick and tired of seeing people fight and insult each other'

FUCK YOU!!!

Now I'll read the comments.

[SheikhTaqiyyameister]

@TehBrutus 'others thoughts of the quality of the audience of Youtube.'

Quality??? We are Americans. We like to fight. And WIN!! That is the finest quality; in spite of our buddy Norman Cook.

[waymanblocker]

@TehBrutus You're in the positive with me I totally agree!

[21skaternerd]

I do not know English well

I do not understand the message after the countdown it says, can someone write it please???

thanks

[cazurrox]

@21skaternerd "These are the stakes! To make a world in which all of God's children can live, or to go into the dark. We must either love each other, or we must die. Vote for President Johnson on November 3rd. The stakes are too high for you to stay home"

[specom]

@cazurrox That commercial KILLED Goldwater's chances of becoming President. Combined with Goldwater's far right rhetoric, no sane person could vote for him.

[supersixty1]

I would LOVE to fly a plane.... im sure its a awesome felling of power, flight and freedom

[doodskater77]

jet fighters are awesome.

[54nt]

what is the smiley icon for? does it means something?

[Firestarter451]

@54nt They represent kills, but by the look of the plane, successful bombings.

[gecodo]

@54nt

Every smiley stands for a plane that he shot down.

[agumon12]

British fighter bomber from the 1950's.

[thewinesmith]

This should be the new song for the USAF.

[NoxNoctisUmbra]

!yerP fo dirB milS yobtaF

[SolumDementia]

Well, that was a mind fuck. And a good one at that.

[JDAVIDLITTLE]

oh i get it, he's tripping...

[PoppySandals]

"MY DAD IS STILL IN VIETNAM WITH MY MOTHER"

[kylesroy]

i love how they sample jims bird of prey, and use his whole vocals for the vocals in this song.. FUCKIN Amazing... the Doors live on.. through FatBoy

[xefterhs]

Only dead people can Deslike this song.

[TheKunted]

This song is so awesome after having done D.M.T to it in the background, such a happy place. everyone should go there

[Hugo411]

AHHHHHH...........The Flight Machine as Fetish Focus.

Cleared for take-off.

[cruisingcody]

This is an F9F cougar, that's a classic

[nowhereman65]

@cruisingcody

Sorry, that's a British re-painted Hawker Hunter, in the T-7 "side by side seating" training version. Mainly, you can tell it from the Cougar by checking the tail... (I'm not use to act the smart ass, only with planes hehe)

[cruisingcody]

@nowhereman65

either way, they are cool

[nowhereman65]

@cruisingcody you're so right...!

[dumbenoughou812]

@nowhereman65 I thought it was a Hawker, couldn't figure out which one though. Good call.

[redmistpete]

:( not the full version

[2011huggie]

JIM MORRISON SAMPLE

[Freezingmuzic]

haters have a heart <3

[phsoftnet]

fucking americans.

running around the world with your toys, killing people

[cruisingcody]

@phsoftnet

you're an idiot

[spammail44]

@phsoftnet fucking hypocrite. Your country never complained when we were bailing your asses out of WWII or saving your country from communism during your civil war. Can't have it both ways.

[specom]

@phsoftnet You're next buttfucker...

[MrShield87]

I remember not too long ago, four years, solid tunes like this were played more frequently on MTV Dance. rarely ever seen this played since. such a shame...don't really want to get with the new program of Z category songs

[TheWeeklyChannel]

I don't understand the video, is it a guy reminiscing on the time he had in the plane? Can someone explain?

[virtualloveaffair]

@TheWeeklyChannel if you don't get it no one can help you

[ChrisHallett83]

@TheWeeklyChannel To me certain parts of the clip seem to be revelling in the joy of flight, but viewed as a whole, I personally think the clip is about a light bomber pilot so traumatised by PTSD stemming from civilian village bombing missions, he self-medicates with psychotropics.

[TheWeeklyChannel]

@ChrisHallett83 I think I understood that

[picklemaster07]

The pilot is Charles Xavier :D

[otakuman600]

this song is not that great...

[Metatronicus]

Bird of fucktastical prey!

[adamjlemus]

It’s a beautiful symbolic image. Throw away your machines of war and fall to the earth as a person wrapped in pure joy……..however he did just abandon 20,000lb fighter bomber at 30,000feet at 500mph which is now a uncontrolled missile of death and destruction hurdling towards the earth

[AvidPsychonaut]

The wonderful poetic emotion of Jim Morrison encapsulated in a Fatboy masterpiece !

[OnaHoliday]

R.I.P jim

[ex59neo53]

Plane = Hawker Hunter

[Spraaaaay]

We have the capabilities to create wonderful machines, sustain life, and we also have the capabilities to destroy life. We are a strange race indeed.

[GRMEGISTOS]

@Spraaaaay we r the fucking cancer of the earth...

[Deakness]

0:00 to 0:30 Counting Fail

[bilguunmdr]

damn...



[swampmosquito1]

piece of shit

[bjentertainment1997]

What an awesome song. Period.

[figbat1]

for some reason i just love this song.

[biskind7]

this video is about tests that the u.s.air force did on some of their pilots during the sixtys. They gave lsd to the pilots to see if it made them better at flying...Tripping balls in a fighter jet would be un-fucking-real!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

[3nlighted]

Cool video on the freedom side but brainwashing at its finest...during those days .So many psychotic actions were made by tyrants. Black elites are dying and removed. Thats the good thing ! And say No to Censorship. Human's were not made to be puppets nor slave, on any society !

[XxDaftChaosxX]

Poor jim . this cover suck .

[gaseki]

@XxDaftChaosxX

Because it's not a cover. It's a re-interpretation of the lyrics with "a bit" of a change of meaning (I really belive that Jim watched an eagle or some other bird) and tone.

[bffjjske]

The bit where he drinks the LSD-spiked water mysteriously got omitted.

Say No to Censorship, kids... if they let you.

[missmegami69]

beautiful... every single time!

[ab37z]

The Vietnam bombing run footage seems genuine, albeit run backwards. The suffering there may be happening many hundreds of feet below, but it would be real enough.

[MrFisherrrrrrr]

5...4...3...2...1 thunderbirds are go

[sicksnicker1]

I just found out this was a Jim Morrison/The Doors song. They are both really good.

[tiagothesnip]

melhor q o som desses caras, só os clipes deles mesmo!!

[Jwend392]

SInce when did the American military use the Hawker Hunter?

[Niven42]

@Jwend392 Just because you've never heard of them using one doesn't mean they haven't.

[brom9649]

@Jwend392 since fatboy slim made the video DUH

[stuball455]

I don't mean to be a lump, but the aircraft is a British Hawker Hunter, a type the US military never used...

[Niven42]

@stuball455 Which is why you'd never see it painted with USAF colors. Oh wait.

[tomjinn]

me too.

[ARJHaloRadio]

i like the part when he says "Flying high flying high bird of prey"

[Sirmango101]

The girl deserved what she got, she couldn't even count to ten.

Stay in school kids.

[caharmy]

THIS IS REALLY MUSIC! SO WONDERFUL!!

[mrmenta86]

<3 life!!!

[SSGTTailsJenkins]

Good video, but wouldn't you suffocate and die in a normal jet cabin if you removed your mask and visor? If the clouds are anything to go off of, then wouldn't he be at an altitude that would suffocate him under the circumstances? This is coming from a non-pilot, so correct me if I'm wrong.

[dzambi]

@SSGTTailsJenkins It is true if the altitude is above 5-6km (about 19k feet), but the clouds are not a good marker, there can be a lot of clouds as low as 1km (3k-4k feet)

[spruce1990]

@SSGTTailsJenkins In another of Fatboy Slim's videos, Christopher Walken flies. I don't think realism is high on the list of aims when these videos are made.

[TOASTMANOO7]

the Doors done it better

[vaf88]

i support targeted bombing

[sd9800]

i want to go skydiving now ....o and that guy is so high lol

[bryanswift10]

Headphone, botle of red wine, every weekend in my mind, from many years!

[Sbone30]

Even without the amazing vid this tune sends me into trips. i close my eyes and im im flying

[tyga42]

crap plane where's the veron?

[dullath]

@tyga42 as in bugatti? if so, please have respect and spell it right, dammit.

[tyga42]

@dullath sorry i meant victor was a bit wasted when watching this :D

thanks for correcting me though!

[gerra555]

dude im a pilot every time im in air i think of this song .its being going on for years ,why cant i stop

i miss the 90.s

[Zichiable]

@gerra555

I always hear Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf when I fly my bird. :P

[HonestJack]

@gerra555 How do you know there is a pilot at a party? He WILL fucking tell you.

[SirCodModz]

@gerra555 your not a pilot you spell like a 13 year old dyslexic kid or a 15 year old mexican
