This was the best of the "Lethal Weapon" movies for the action, story line, and camaraderie between the actors. Excellent George Harrison tune just tops it off.
I totally agree! I don't even think this song charted on radio, if it did it certainly was'nt very high. It is just a great song. You can catch Tom Petty's sweet sense of humor[sic] in the lyrics too. Awesome song! Peace, M.A.
I absolutely adore this song It was featured at the end of lethal weapon 2 Great end to such a fantastic movie 🎬 🎞 George Harrison thanks for all the wonderful music you gave us in this world 🌎 And being a member of the worlds most famous band, the fab four The beatles
Man he could do it all just great vocal & slide guitar. This song has such a catchy melody and sort of tongue in cheek lyrics, Tom Petty helped him write the words for this song and you can tell those two guys used cut up together. They both had that dry sense of humor. I loved hearing Petty tell his George stories. R.I.P. to them both. I hope they're in heaven havin a blast still. Peace, M.A.
One of my favourite songs of all time, I love the song, I love the films, I love the actors about all. This was my childhood.... these films I can watch every single time.... I miss this time, in the new one films, the 80´s was the best time for music and film, so much happiness and joy. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ 80´s ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Love the song, love the movie!!! The chemistry that these guys had has been difficult for other cop buddy movie actors to touch. I can always return to Riggs and Murtaugh for that nostalgic, manly-buddy magic that only two guys can have in a film!
Already being a Beatles fan as a young kid... I remember watching this movie when it came out. At the end credits that amazing guitar kicked in, that's when I discovered George Harrison's solo career and loved his music ever since. RIEP 🙏
This movie is so awesome and George Harrison is my fave singer, so when "Cheer Down" suddenly started playing in the ending scene I was jumping up and down!
At the end, I'm always yelling hurry! Hurry hurry Murtaugh, they love each other so much and I love them! Great video, made me so happy! G. Harrison was the most underrated member if the GOAT Beatles. Thank you.
They have been playing the series on tv again...always a classic! I heard this song at the end and always wondered who it was. I was excited to see it was Harrison..Love all his work. To find out it was a Collab from Harrison, Petty, Clapton...🤯🤯🤯 just awesome. This should have been a #1 hit for weeks...
I've just this second finished watching 2 AGAIN! (Knock, knock 🎶knocking on heaven's 🎵 door). 'did ya get em all Rog?' ... 'Yeah, they've been decaffeinated' .... 'hey Rog, you really are a beautiful man's 🎵🎶🎵
A. Barnard Let's kiss each other before they arrive! 😂 This is a replica of thunder, one of those little things that gives the film an extra flavor. The fans are just waiting for that. If those funny little phrases weren't there, they'd be sorry. A bit like in a symphonic orchestra, when there is the little bit of triange. It's almost nothing to tell the truth, but if this famous triangle was no longer there, music lovers would notice it. The lines in this film are the same. 😊
I loved this song as I have literally loved everything the Beatles ever touched. Imo the GOAT now and forever, greatest harmony, melodies, lyrics etc. It's hard to wrap my head around the fact that they found each other. This song is so great and simple like most of everything they all did, tom pretty contributing just made it even more amazing. Ty for the post, and ty to my boomer parents who had me dancing in my diapers to all of them then, and for the rest of my life. ❤❤❤
Fun fact: the ending of Lethal Weapon 2 originally had Riggs die in Murtaugh's arms. This didn't sit well with test screenings so they went back and recorded a few lines of the two joking to dub over the final shot, however they didn't reshoot it, so when this song starts to play and the camera zooms out on Murtaugh holding Riggs as they both laugh you can clearly see Riggs is utterly lifeless.
FUN FACT #2: When they were filming 'LETHAL WEAPON 2' ... we were filming a little cop-killer thriller I wrote called, 'THE BANKER' (1989) and we could see the Dick Donner set about 3 miles up the beach (Riggs' Trailer Scene Attacked Scene) ... ... whilst we were shooting a simple scene with Bob Forster and Shanna Reed. The midnight snack for the LW2 cast & crew was (or so I was told later) Crab, Lobster and the like. Ours -- was Pizza. It helps to have a lobster budget. D.A.
I read somewhere and I don't remember how long ago that the Lethal Weapon movies were supposed to end with the second with the death of Riggs. From a fan's perspective, I am glad they made more movies.
oh man.....thank you thank you thank you!! I caught the tail end of this song a the other night coming home and racked my brain trying to figure out where I had heard it before. I never understood why this song was never a smash hit as it was just as good (if not better) than what Harrison had released with the Traveling Wilbury's
don't care what you haters want to say about gibson, unless you were alive when this classic came out and saw it first hand, please say nothing. cos this shit was going on!!!
Never knew the name of the actor who played Pieter (Derrick O'Connor), thanks. Didn't realize he was Irish, his South African accent was so good I thought he was a native speaker. Joss Ackland was also great in The Hunt for Red October.
I remember when this movie ended, on the deck of the Alba Varden, money showering, "I can see..." and I slowly turned to my father, and asked skeptically, "Is that George Harrison...?" Sat through the credits...yep, with a couple other Wilburys in tow. Add Knockin on Heaven's Door, and you had what was then all four...
La mejor saga policiaca de la Historia del Cine. ¡Amo a esa pareja! ¡Cómo disfrute mi infancia y mi adolescencia con ellas! Y ese temazo musical es bestial. ¡Arma Letal, para siempre!
LW 1 & 2. Maybe 2 of the best "buddy-cop action films " ever made. They did so much RIGHT. Well thought through script. Everyting shat should DID come together WELL. e.g. chemistry on screen between the 2 main characters, an unpredictable story, proper pacing of the action, where to add cmededy and where NOT....they smartly had us convinced at the end of LW2 "riggs" was drying....we accepted it...then he wakes up...and we were all happy again and got our "happy ending" for a good film. They also felt itwa important to have one of the main characters use a revolver. A detail missed. To say revolvers were still remevant ...in the 80's (a sthey still are today actualy in 2024). It's a tried and true handgun platform. An not ever every charater automatic weapons like every other action film....LW 1 & 2 were "a good time"....back when people went to the threaters...heh...
This was a great Underrated George Harrison song ,it should have been promoted properly and been a hit.
ladies and gentlemen, George Harrison. Wasn't he awesome?
Yeah?
The most underrated Beatle.
Very awesome and beautiful song
Amen!
@@michaelangelo2739 the guitar solo at the end is stunning.
One of George's finest songs...that guitar was literally crying...❤️
This was the best of the "Lethal Weapon" movies for the action, story line, and camaraderie between the actors. Excellent George Harrison tune just tops it off.
George Harrison is the greatest guitarist in the human history ever walked on earth...God bless ,,rest peace my Master....
Imagine if he had still been around and be given beginner guitar lessons one on one
GIVE PEACE A CHANCE
Yesssss
the best cop buddy series of all time
I refuse to watch the Damon Wayans abortion of a tv version.
Agreed
One of the most criminally underrated film songs of all time.
I totally agree! I don't even think this song charted on radio, if it did it certainly was'nt very high. It is just a great song. You can catch Tom Petty's sweet sense of humor[sic] in the lyrics too. Awesome song! Peace, M.A.
George Harrison was a GOD with a guitar. Cheer Down's solo is probably the best ever. 🖖🙂❤
Check his solo on Belinda Carlisle's 'Leave a Light On' for another contender for his best solo.
*god of slide guitar
not of finger picking
I used to watch this movie just to hear "Cheer Down" at the end!!
Me too 😂
Love the movie
Love the song
Miss those days
No better Duo than Riggs & Murtaugh. Loved these back in the 80's and still love them now!
Damn I miss the 80’s 😢
We all do...
I liked them all, but the second Lethal Weapon always was my personal favorite. So many good movies were made in the 80s and 90s.
I liked them all myself too. I prefer them more than the die-hards.
@@johndoyle2429die hards fell over after 4th one
Lethal Weapon 1 and 2 are the best buddy cop movies ever made
I absolutely adore this song
It was featured at the end of lethal weapon 2
Great end to such a fantastic movie 🎬 🎞
George Harrison thanks for all the wonderful music you gave us in this world 🌎
And being a member of the worlds most famous band, the fab four
The beatles
George Harrison played the hell out of that guitar at the end
Man he could do it all just great vocal & slide guitar. This song has such a catchy melody and sort of tongue in cheek lyrics, Tom Petty helped him write the words for this song and you can tell those two guys used cut up together. They both had that dry sense of humor. I loved hearing Petty tell his George stories. R.I.P. to them both. I hope they're in heaven havin a blast still. Peace, M.A.

This was my childhood....
these films I can watch every single time....
I miss this time, in the new one films, the 80´s was the best time for music and film, so much happiness and joy.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ 80´s ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I loved them all back then - but this was my personal favourite. And George Harrison's song at the end made it even more better.
Very good movie, very beautiful song.
George Harrison, Guitars
Jeff Lynne, Guitars, Bass.
Richard Tandy, Piano.
Ian Paice, Drums.
Ray Cooper, Percussion.
What Band!!!!
Written with Tom Petty
I had no idea this many great singers were behind this song!
Love the song, love the movie!!! The chemistry that these guys had has been difficult for other cop buddy movie actors to touch. I can always return to Riggs and Murtaugh for that nostalgic, manly-buddy magic that only two guys can have in a film!
色褪せない名曲と映画です。
most under appreciated Beatle
The toilet scene was one of the best scenes ever filmed .... Ever
Already being a Beatles fan as a young kid... I remember watching this movie when it came out. At the end credits that amazing guitar kicked in, that's when I discovered George Harrison's solo career and loved his music ever since. RIEP 🙏
Like David Lee Roth and sting and Robert plant some of there solo material was the best
George Harrison released this late 80s rock ballad in '89
Taken from the film lethal weapon 2
1989 great year for music and to be an 80s kid 👌 👍
One of George Harrison's very best!! Love this song! 💘💟💕🎼🎵🎶🎼🎸🎸
Discovered these movies December 2019 and are now my favorite movies ever
01/19/2020 here I swear movies from the 80s and 90s were the best .
wildemir enrique and the 70s
And 60s 50s and 40s 1939 wizard of oz is a classic
You right I almost forgot
Mrs. Doughtfite was the best of all
R.I.P Robin Williams
Committed dead
The best movies, the best actors, the best musicians, the best ppl !!! 80s and 90s Was nothing near like our fucking nowadays times
One of my favourite songs. Timeless.
I like a lot this song !! Delicate ed touching as always the lyrics by G Harrison and his velvety guitar
Terribly amazing!!! A masterpiece for the music and the superbe slide guitar!
Diplomatic immunity!!!!…………………..has just been revoked!!!!!!
Wheres Arjen?.......Hes been.....dekafernated! 😂😂😂
George Harrison was one of my favorite singers,also John Lennon
From the first moment I heard this, song, I thought man what an epic song. Truly fantastic, also the guitar music is amazing.
This was the box office hit of the year in South Africa believe it or not 😊😊
This movie is so awesome and George Harrison is my fave singer, so when "Cheer Down" suddenly started playing in the ending scene I was jumping up and down!
The exact same thing happened with me 😁
I love this so beautiful song Harrison/Petty.... What else ???? 💖💖💔💔
It was one of my favorite film on VHS when i was a kid
I was 28 or so then but I agree anyway ;-)
cant wait for the final lethal weapon film.
Fantastic tune with the Master at the helm JEFF LYNNE.
Mel and Danny had great chemistry
Agree 100%
The one and only George Harrison, enuff said.
He always was my personal favourite Beatle.
Love this song love the film ❤ i can listen n watch this all day love u boys ❤️❤️❤️
3:08 - gold... Great GH track, one of his all-time best.
amazing sensuous slide licks!
💯 💶
Love the Lethal weapon films 😎❤
"Diplomatic immunity"................................"Just been revoked"
For once, I agree. They don't make them like they use to. Great script writers, great actors, great music.
RIP RICHARD DONNER!
This is a great song! Just awesome sounding slide guitar work R.I.P. George just one of the all time greats! Peace, M.A.
oh, i miss Donner, Gibson, Glover... what hell of a team!
...and George Harrison! 😎👍
At the end, I'm always yelling hurry! Hurry hurry Murtaugh, they love each other so much and I love them! Great video, made me so happy! G. Harrison was the most underrated member if the GOAT Beatles. Thank you.
They have been playing the series on tv again...always a classic! I heard this song at the end and always wondered who it was. I was excited to see it was Harrison..Love all his work.
To find out it was a Collab from Harrison, Petty, Clapton...🤯🤯🤯 just awesome. This should have been a #1 hit for weeks...
Beautifully done video to an underrated tune of a master. Thank you.
I've just this second finished watching 2 AGAIN! (Knock, knock 🎶knocking on heaven's 🎵 door). 'did ya get em all Rog?' ... 'Yeah, they've been decaffeinated' .... 'hey Rog, you really are a beautiful man's 🎵🎶🎵
George number one.
"Roger, do you know that you're really a handsome guy? Let's kiss before they get there!" 😂😂❤❤👏👏
"You really are a Beautiful Man! "
A. Barnard Let's kiss each other before they arrive! 😂
This is a replica of thunder, one of those little things that gives the film an extra flavor. The fans are just waiting for that. If those funny little phrases weren't there, they'd be sorry. A bit like in a symphonic orchestra, when there is the little bit of triange. It's almost nothing to tell the truth, but if this famous triangle was no longer there, music lovers would notice it. The lines in this film are the same. 😊
Excellent soundtrack top movie
My favourite solo beatle
I loved this song as I have literally loved everything the Beatles ever touched. Imo the GOAT now and forever, greatest harmony, melodies, lyrics etc. It's hard to wrap my head around the fact that they found each other. This song is so great and simple like most of everything they all did, tom pretty contributing just made it even more amazing. Ty for the post, and ty to my boomer parents who had me dancing in my diapers to all of them then, and for the rest of my life. ❤❤❤
I'd like to dedicate this to my brother from another mother, Tim ❤
I miss George! Thanks for posting, Jay TeeWee!
you´re welcome :-)
Fun fact: the ending of Lethal Weapon 2 originally had Riggs die in Murtaugh's arms. This didn't sit well with test screenings so they went back and recorded a few lines of the two joking to dub over the final shot, however they didn't reshoot it, so when this song starts to play and the camera zooms out on Murtaugh holding Riggs as they both laugh you can clearly see Riggs is utterly lifeless.
FUN FACT #2: When they were filming 'LETHAL WEAPON 2' ... we were filming a little cop-killer thriller I wrote called, 'THE BANKER' (1989) and we could see the Dick Donner set about 3 miles up the beach (Riggs' Trailer Scene Attacked Scene) ...
... whilst we were shooting a simple scene with Bob Forster and Shanna Reed.
The midnight snack for the LW2 cast & crew was (or so I was told later) Crab, Lobster and the like. Ours -- was Pizza.
It helps to have a lobster budget.
D.A.
Thanks, will have to watch for that next time.
I read somewhere and I don't remember how long ago that the Lethal Weapon movies were supposed to end with the second with the death of Riggs. From a fan's perspective, I am glad they made more movies.
It all comes down to profits. It's hard to turn down $20 million bucks to make faces for a living. @@stevenpurdie4412
Glad they didn’t end the franchise at #2. Lethal Weapon 4 turned out to have the best villain and the best ending - at that point they were a family.
I guess my most favorite song by George Harrison connected with a favorite movie. Awesome video, really the best scenes! Awesome! :-)
George Harrison 💙 Lethal Weapon 2 💙

Leo thank you for your comment ... I totally agree with you ...
thank you for bringing this in 1080p my good friend! And remember that if your hair fall down, shares crash ...
don't care what you haters want to say about gibson, unless you were alive when this classic came out and saw it first hand, please say nothing. cos this shit was going on!!!
They hate everything, pay no mind...
You can't cancel the Lethal Weapon
Love this song. Miss U G!!!
Rika break my heart.. 😢
Awesome by George
Classic movie
As much as I like Die-hard movies. I prefer Lethal weapons more.
This song fits lethal weapon so much great collaboration
RIP
Derrick O'Connor
And
Joss Ackland
Never knew the name of the actor who played Pieter (Derrick O'Connor), thanks. Didn't realize he was Irish, his South African accent was so good I thought he was a native speaker.
Joss Ackland was also great in The Hunt for Red October.
@@mazdaman0075 Yeah don't mention it
Derrick O’Connor was the priest in End of Days with no tongue.
Possibly the greatest theme to a cop movie.
I remember when this movie ended, on the deck of the Alba Varden, money showering, "I can see..." and I slowly turned to my father, and asked skeptically, "Is that George Harrison...?"
Sat through the credits...yep, with a couple other Wilburys in tow. Add Knockin on Heaven's Door, and you had what was then all four...

Großartige Zeiten, Harrison & Lethal Weapon ❤
I still feel sorry for Rika...
These "Lethal Weapon" movies were great... but the best "Lethal Weapon" movies were the ones the gang made in "It's always sunny in Philadelphia".
This song is so strange as a closing credits piece. That said, It's fucking perfect!
Phenomenal!! If ya haven’t heard the live in Japan version go there ASAP
The Legend of Hollywood Cinema 😉🎬
This and the end of the movie Heat (Moby) have my favorite end credits songs
I love this film
Cool and well done Video to an amazing franchise and great song.
Honestly the best script of the series.
Master Jeff Lynne... Thanks!!! 💫✨
Jeff is The King ... his stamp is perfectly recognizable in this track
Agreed! You can hear him distinctively at 3:43. Legend.
A huge box office success in South Africa in 1989. South Africans know how to laugh at themselves.
I know there are many Orange there, but many Brits too from way back and that's where they learnt to laugh at themselves. We're not all bad!
I was always surprised by how dirty the toilet was. Their house looked very clean!
:-D
Probably had just finished taking a dump before he read the message on the toilet roll.

Fantastic love this
