David Bowie and Queen - Under Pressure

[cpronyou]

Big Bowie and Queen fan for decades, and of all their work, this stands out as my favorite. It still makes my chest tighten every time I hear it. Powerful, evocative, and still relevant are the thoughts that come to mind.

[thatguy341]

man why do i like this song so much? oh wait queen and david bowie sing this, ok that makes sense :D

[DopoStar]

vanilla sucks like my small drug

ed penis....

"A cheap Vanilla Ice ripoff. Oh, wait a second..."

Rules on the internet part 46 §3 : Irony is just not working the way it should be and thus is not to be understood be everyone :)

[conniedaly]

I freekin LUV this song!!!!!!!!

[antikira]

this is my favorite song ever luv it

[ultramegachickenshow]

the version made by ninjabridged is awesome

[margaretregan]

Heard this song on the radio today for the 1st time. I initially thought it was the Vanilla Ice song (of course), then I recognized David Bowie's beloved voice and thought "What???" Then, I heard the other voice and thought, "Is that Freddie Mercury???" Two of the greatest singing voices EVER, in the same song. I had no idea this song even existed...and I thought I was a pretty decent Bowie fan. What a wonderful discovery on my way to work this morning! ;)

[DennisBelder]

Jeeezusss! This is music! Fuck the Millenium and after!

[TheBigClock]

And of course! Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby has more views than this...

-_- What The?

[EldarWrath]

Vanila ice is a dick . . .Obviously it was queen and bowies. . .

[xXAZN407Xx]

@EldarWrath its just one little beat that was sampled and then ice changed everything else....................he didnt still any of the other parts of the beat that the instruments plays with it

[EldarWrath]

Yes but ice's whole song revolved around the sample he took.

[cogollento]

2:38 what a beautiful image...

[metroman112929]

Great song.......

[Pajcina]

dudes vanila ice was arrested when david and the queen conplain cause vanila ice stoll the riff

[brokl26]

There was no arrest, but Vanilla(very vanilla) had to pay royalties. Queen is the greatest.

[Sukuraidogai]

@brokl26 make no mistake, I love this song over vanilla ice but I think it's stupid that you can be charged for copying a riff. It's done all of the time, and there's only a limited amount of combinations of notes out there.

It doesn't matter who thought of it first, God ultimately created it. You can't copyright that....

[RockGirlPink97]

But I don't get it about Vanilla Ice and Queens...did like Vanilla Ice change Under Pressure from Queen's or what? Explain please...

[ViralCell7]

Queen and David Bowie performed this originally in 1982, Robert Van Winkle (Vanilla Ice) had the bassline sampled from this song in 1989. He claimed at first that it was his idea, and he tries to justify this by saying that they're completely different due to an extra note.

-_-

[LilithLorelai]

This is a great tune and it's no surprise somebody ripped off the beat. Lots of acts (legitimately) sample Deacon's bass - a testament to his talent. Who cares about Vanilla Ice?

[JayNZ4]

This song is ok but he blatantly stole the beat from vanilla ice. LOLOL

[ROULERS1]

u'd better be fucking joking or else you are a fucking prick!!!

[peterock420]

you gpt ir wrong buddy vanilla ice sample queens bass!! that y he got sued!

[gotenksr5]

no sampling without the owners permission is considered stealing.

[peterock420]

you right i should of said he almost did!!!!

[ROULERS1]

fuck you

[0n0jin]

top vid and top song, Vanilla Ice is so talented! ;)

[0n0jin]

its amazing how little the comments on most vids have to do with the vid itself! ;)

[looneybineastman]

Beautiful!

give love one more chance, give love (8x)

(care for the people...this is our last dance (2x)...

[rico6111]

IM LOVE THE BASS <3

[zidziiman]

so am i buddy, so am i...

[killfoot19]

can you type in normal english?

[poppermann]

Kühlschrank auf ;Muschie Raus; Kühlschrank zu;ab ins Bett; Steffi ist ihr Name steht auf dem Etikett

[mowdowndafaces4]

Well good job, you've heard from the talented musicians, sadly you like the one's who rip off music.

[Holleboer17]

dickhead the 80's rule!

do you think that the music of today is better? with all of their rap?

[omegalemming]

It's no use hollebeor, about half of the teenagers this day and age think old music is shit music. Thankfully, the other half have brain cells :P

[joinedJun2407]

I'm sorry to say, but I think it is less than half who still have a taste in music. more like an eighth

[Kingpayne007]

Queen rules...

"Freddie Mercury - (Still) Being a legend."

[ortizmo]

One of the best Queen videos ever made....and they dont even appear in it. I remember when you couldn't even turn on MTV without seeing this at least once a day. God I miss the 80's.

[ediann]

great great song! Love the sound and the beat of the song! Very cool!

[wien93]

Fuck vanilla ice.

[nickblack2006]

Vanilla Ice sucks ass

[v94m]

this was done in the early 80s Vanilla Ice ripped it off of them!!!

get ur facts straight!!!

[KIDSCOTCH]

I was joking I knew I would get a rise, It's to easy

[scskater77]

wow you must feel like a bad-ass

[KIDSCOTCH]

I never thought of it that, way but yea I'm a Bad Ass

[scskater77]

i guess you have never thought about taking English? it would help your grammar and you wouldn't sound like a retard.

[Changes4TheBetter]

awesome

many in this situation world wide human's need 2 wake up

i fear we can't change enough... can we??? the minor trivial, so many argue there, how on earth do we expect 2 reach higher ground when can't even keep the lowlands in order???

hello???

hugs my friends

totemtrio, big mouth momma

[pengi32ashiteru]

David Bowie and Freddie Mercury are the best combo in the world.

RIP freddie

[Weitug]

Who can't hear the difference beetween Freddie and David Bowie? ...

[BJSteigner]

Nobody can....Ice Ice Baby had Under Pressure written all over it. Vanilla Ice said there was one note added....True, but the rest of it was Under Pressure "sampling without permission".

[OneGuitarDude]

You can really feel the emotion of the song from 2:38-3:33. The combination of two of the greatest voices in rock, absolutley amazing.

"Why can't we give ourselves one more chance?"

[OneGuitarDude]

A quick question, how can you tell when Freddy Mercury is singing and when David Bowie is singing?

[weltraumaeffchen]

because their voices sound different...

[weltraumaeffchen]

oh, by the way, don't some of you miss the ironic subtext of the main-comment?

[axisundone]

Bowie's voice is warmer and fuller, Mercury's voice has more of an edge. Also, all the highest note are Mercury.

[rockfan243]

Great song with a classic bass rift!!

plus it's queen and bowie

(freddy does this song fine by him sell too he dosen't nee bowie no offence to any bowie fas out their)

[shannyjoburg]

Ahh, i dont give a shite really, what ye'all think, they dont make them like this anymore, the Freddies and David Bowie's of this world...they truly rock. Long live true music.

[burnedbook]

now that's a comment that gets my big back under it !

[shannyjoburg]

Hey, is there an argument here? David and Queen did it first, and so well.

[bananaupdabutt]

Are you stupid? How could you say, or even imply that QUEEN would rip a song off from anyone, let alone VANILLA ICE. You must be quite stupid. Under pressure - made 1981. Ice Ice Baby - made 1991. Stupid.

[BearsRule43]

you're an idiot.

Vanilla Ice ripped off this song.

Who's stupid now, you dumbshit.

[mamiejaye]

Not bad for a couple of Butt Pirates.

[Dragon45348]

great team up

[kerouaca]

the song is magnificent, I don't see why anyone who couldn't dosomething like this, would even manage to judge it.

[metroman112929]

great song

[RocknFreakinRoll]

"What do you get when you mix the talents of Bowie and Queen? A cheap Vanilla Ice ripoff. Oh, wait a second..."

lol I thought someone just wanted to say that Queen rip-off this from vanila cum-ice. lol NEVER! vanila ice - arguably the worst rapper on this earth. always rip-off everything from everybody.

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!!!

[dasiriondil]

awesome song

[Vwhip24]

this song is amazing!!

[JohnnyTrotz]

dopeness. what a great song. Respekt to them, ...

[FeverishLuke]

superb

[OneGuitarDude]

Queen+David Bowie=One-Kick-Ass-Song!!!

[ZodiacLibra86]

luvin' it.

[blade4657]

vanilla ice (the biggest fagg on earth) ripped off ice ice baby from queen not the other way around tard

[mememaddie1234]

omg i luv david bowie and in the movie labyrinth it was great queen is great tooo

[ximuc]

very nice(foarte frumos )

[DebitumNaturae]

I love this song! Amazing!

[Thebiggmeister]

You have gotten it all wrong Ice baby is just a cheap rip off of the classic queen song. I mean it's not as good a Bohemian Rhapsody but it's a very good song.

[svampebob3]

so true

[freeyourmindtc]

a very good song, its a classic in my opinion and your right ice sucked you can not even compare the two please.

[shifre]

When I heard ices version I was like "Great beat, bad rapper"...

Now I realised why tha beat was good.

[youvebeenthunderstru]

You cut off the beginning a bit. Anyway, fucking great song.

[melotird]

fav'd. prefer this version to the live one. live they made it too fast

[SMF81]

Queen was not only a band, it was four great musicians who really did great lyrics and music. Freddie Mercury tooked the music by Queen to another level with his voice.

he was and still are the best singer in the world in all time. Freddie, bryan may, john deacon and roger taylor created perhaps one of best top ten bands in the world.

[GeneHunt01]

Queen & Bowie is like chocolate & ice cream, 2 of the best thing's ever!

[fanofovada]

A Brilliant Song From the Best Band ever.....

[TridgetLikeAPuma]

Vanilla Ice ripped off Under pressure not the other way around.

[Gorky83]

I know. I was making a joke.

[TridgetLikeAPuma]

sorry it's just that some people actually think they ripped off vanilla ice.

[chantelprocks]

@Gorky83 heheh..he failed.. not u the other dude

[xXAZN407Xx]

@TridgetLikeAPuma not really it was just that one beat that everyone notice's but no one pays attention to the beats in the back ground....................its more like sampling

[chantelprocks]

@TridgetLikeAPuma this guy

[paulpierce9191]

@TridgetLikeAPuma you're EXTREMELY smart

[alyssah98]

im 10 and that song rocks

[jaknife5436]

no matter what age you are this song rocks (please dont say you like a song and your a certain age to make yourself feel special what makes someone like a song is personal prefferance)

[l123321]

CAN WE GIVE OURSELVES?! ONE MORE CHANCE?:!?!!

CAN WE GIVE LOVE?! ONE MORE CHANCE!!

wish i had his voice =')

[gusty123321]

there was a tv show recently with this song....sunset studio smthg like that...

[NuDecade]

Wow this song brings me right back when I was a kid. It also carries a good message! Love it!!

[HailSatan19]

by far one of the best songs ever made

[bradbla]

one of the best songs ever

i would have been pissed to when dumb ass vanilla ice STOLE it

something so awesome and touching made into something so corny and more popular

sad

just goes to show you the mentality of most people

[NexxT212]

[Julik1]

[AlmostGotSome]

[Brudeluxe]

I love this song, it is one of my favorites by Queen, but this song played live is so much better, isn't it??.... awesome!!

[spxnbc]

Stop talking about that shit as white rapper

QUEEN AND DAVID BOWIE ROCK!

I love this song.

[igmk93]

you can forget Justin Timberlake, Robbie Wiliams or Madonna. QUEEN has already beaten them.

[Jet7445]

When the bass line is over you just can't help but go, ICE ICE BABY!

wait a sec

[c8tina]

Vanilla Ice bought this bass line, so Under Pressure is really what it should make you think of :)

[SilvanNosty]

More like, Vanilla Ice ripped this Bass with no permission, giving no credibility, and paying no royalties.

Who even gives a shit about that 2 cent queer?

[l123321]

Yeah silvan. We only care about billionare ones =p

[c8tina]

Ah, I had no clue about that. Thanks for letting me know! Now I want to punch that cheap bastard in the cunt.

[cheryanr]

[nicodiaboloco]

[Mercury888]

[007cleopatra007]

Simply PERFECT!!!!!

[valdasoxford]

Vannila stinks!! Fuck him! God bless the QUEEN!

[freeyourmind4202]

right on, it is not even cool to mention the two bands in the same breath, rest in peace Freddie. PEACE

[lovemusicsomuch]

ok people did you know that keane have done a cover of this song? their keyboardist says that Tom the singer's the biggest queen fan and even sounds like Freddie. I'll wait til I actually hear the song cos Freddie's UN-beatable.

[sonicx51]

[farbiszfreak]
