  • German immigrant Kay got his professional start in a bluesy Toronto band called Sparrow, recording for Columbia in 1966. After Sparrow disbanded, Kay relocated to the West Coast and formed Steppenwolf, named after the Herman Hesse novel. "Born to Be Wild," their third single on ABC-Dunhill, was immortalized on the soundtrack of Dennis Hopper's underground film classic Easy Rider. The song's reference to "heavy metal thunder" finally gave an assignable name to an emerging genre.

  • It´s a good song

  • Damn ... Al Bundy and Steve Rhoades brought me here!

  • Aumenta o volume que isso aí é o verdadeiro rock'n'roll......

  • Uprated. My young French spouse likes American rock but he likes clips where it is a live performance. This is great! "That way, they can't cheat," he says. Righto!

  • Wow.

  • Guys, check out this band called "the Sheepdogs", i reckon they're pretty close to 70's rock & roll.

    I'm glad to have seen them in concert, they're really fucking good!

  • These guys were not holding back... that drive!

  • " Very cool song !! "

  • Rock and Roll racing!!!!

  • 296 dyslexics is my theory

  • Bob Ross on keyboard

  • man i bet these guys did alot of heroin!!!

  • @bettydaw1970

    "Man I bet these guys did a lot of heroin". Well, not very different from Britney Spears, Amy Winehouse, some Rap guys, and many of our modern musicians...

  • @shishyupal actually yea, when you look at the drugs consumed per musician, it doesn't matter which drugs, the drug use was much, much higher across the board in the late 60s and throughout the 70s. the simple evidence is how many people died as a result of drug overdose back then compared to today. sure, stars die today but as far as music goes, nowhere near as many as back then.

  • @shishyupal The difference is britney spears doesn't make good music...

  • @shishyupal Duh...

  • @shishyupal true but who are you arguing with?

  • @dsmdan5242 With bettydaw1970. He or she put an emphasis about drug use, as if it was the central point of the music spirit...

  • @shishyupal The difference is that they could actually made good music... just sayin'

    

  • @shishyupal The difference is that these guys actually have real musical talent, and make good music, which we were are listening to now several decades later. Most modern musicians are easily forgotten.

  • @MEGADAVEFTW Yes definitely. My point is drugs are not the prerogatives of the 60's / 70's. I didn't contest the talent of Steppenwolf, Jimi Hendrix Experience, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, etc...

  • @shishyupal Yeah, I knew what you meant. I'm just saying.

  • @shishyupal Except of course that the musicians then focused on...music, simply. Not on commercial shit.

  • @shishyupal And a lot of other people that love their freedom!

  • @shishyupal At least they did it WITH STYLE .

    Back in the days .

  • @shishyupal Listen to the Pusher

  • @ghana21 agreed

  • @shishyupal amy winehouse preferred heroin and vodka lol

  • @bettydaw1970 I bet Charliee Sheen beats em in contest :D

  • @bettydaw1970 could have done all the heroin in the world and they still are better than that shit they call music today

  • @bettydaw1970 i do it

  • 297 docile person...

  • 297 stupid sons of guns posted here who would think to dislike this must be a Democract!

  • @hubhunts: A. Learn to spell the names of the people you are criticizing. B. I'm a Democrat and I've loved this song for 20+ years now. (I'm 36 so I wasn't around when the song was popular.)

  • @hubhunts with republicans being conservate, wouldnt it make more sense that consertive god faring family people would dislike this song more then a liberal person?

  • Comment removed

  • NETSHOES!!!

  • If I'm gonna die I'm gonna die in HEAVY METAL THUNDER! \m/

  • I was a child of the 60s and the music was awesome and I still love it.

  • I saw Steppenwolf live @ Chicago's Park West a few decades ago ... Great Show!☺

  • Easy rider was the movie

  • bands got better and better playing in pubs/clubs back in the day. that stopped because we now listen to dj's and techno crap. 

  • I love these guys but does it seem like they were...uh...'recreating', a bit to much before they went on stage?

  • Does anyone remember the name of the movie this is in? The one with the hibernating bears and the guys that go on a road trip to see them? From a long time ago.

  • @nrossification Wild America, love that movie. 

  • My cover just with vocal, guitar and drums :))

    watch?v=M9DJRbcH8Hc

  • I'm listening to this song and trying to make coffee at the same time. Impossible. Song is too distracting. I stop and sing all the time!

  • ac/dc sounds better with this song :P but Steppenwolf FTW!

  • Does anyone else think this specific live performance sounds like shit? Better off with the other one, they did a little less acid if any on the other live performance.

  • Go to CBCCoverMe's channel to see an awesome cover done by "Living in Red", and to "JackieQ1000" channel to see all performances.

  • Justin Beiber's got nothing on this! And I'm 20.

  • @Brigade35 ....beiber?

  • @Brigade35 No shit...

  • a pair of leather pants never looked so good...just sayin' !! ;) This rocks always--no matter the generation.

  • 295 people weren`t born to be wild

  • this LIFE was MEANT to be lived an ADVENTURE!!

    don't ever, ever settle for the 9-5 slavery lifestyle.

    office or adventure?? hmmmm ThUMBS UP if agree!!

  • Stay on that green carpet and ride!

  • You people HAVE to see this: Living in Red does Steppenwolf! Search "Living in Red Born to be wild"

  • Old and nice music!

  • I'm wild. I was born. Coincidence? This song has so many parallels to my life. I will keep on liking heavy metals and Indian made carpets.

  • Pure rock 'n' roll. Greatest band of all time.

  • Amazing that these guys and other bands like them were on every drug known to man drank to much and yet could go out on stage and perform as if they were straight and yet Whinehouse and all those other losers these days have one drink and they need to lip sync or drop dead. Performers today just suck.

  • @kilmalletgodsortmout Rock rules no doubt however amy whinehouse didn't die of a drug overdose & she never lip synced in concert. As fucked up as she was she still sang better than most of today's artists combined so get your facts straight before you go posting some stupid shit cos people will believe you without doing some research.

  • @fairyfellermaster your right I should get my facts straight, Amy Whinehouse aged 27 I repeat aged 27 died of natural causes and you are right she didn't lip sync on stage I apologize for that too, because half the time she wasn't on stage or couldn't stand long enough to even sing. Did I get those facts right? Please correct me if I am wrong.

  • @fairyfellermaster dude ... she once did a show and forgot what country she was in ???!

  • He looks high

    

  • 1960s 1970s 1980s 1990s music revelation not revalution like they thought then the boring fucking 2000s with nada but crap rap with wierd distorted voices and rock in roll thats 2nd place it sucks what ahppned to my rock in rolll man 49 and it still osunds awsome so much talent so many great bands now we got ??????????????????????????????­????????nobody

  • @zr1zora RHCP?

    

  • @zr1zora this can only mean one thing, music is dead. everything has been done, there's just no more room for more creativity. same as literature died 50 years ago. when everything has been done, we can only expect "inspirations" or "imitations". Art is dead overall. Religion is dead. It's now the age of science.

  • @yurikomuro

    Music isn't dead.The genres have evolved, but as has the artist. There is still plenty of well composed creative music out there, it just requires deeper looking. Art can never die, that is what makes it art. What's popular comes in cycles, soon guitars will be out and it will be back to the piano. Spirituality too, will never die, it ties in with art; A human is not meet to comprehend everything, speculation gives birth to beauty. as for the religion and science comments... sure

  • @yurikomuro

    But i guess ignorance is bliss

  • Rock' and Roll !!!!!!!!

    BRASIL ROCK AND ROLL

  • You pukes, punks and putzes who missed the 60's too F-ing bad....it was a GREAT ride. I'd have stayed there if that were possible. GREAT music, fast cars,and great poontang. Cheap beer $.99 per 6 pack! I've got to remember WHY we joined the ranks of the corporate douche bags that drive Buicks and have prostate issues.....
