JULY, 1964 - 👍👏🎶⭐😊 It's 60 YEARS AGO when The Animals ground-breaking and legendary single 'House of the Rising Sun' reaches #1 position in UK pop singles charts. In the USA it topped the pop singles chart in SEPTEMBER, 1964. 🎶👍♥ Please give them a big thumbs up! 😊
I'm 72. Our garage band played this in '68 for the local March of Dimes Telethon. After we packed up, we stopped at a local bar for some water. When we told the bartender what we were doing out there, he invited us to play for the bar. We unloaded, set up in a corner and played a few songs for them. They all told us how good we sounded. We left feeling really proud of ourselves. Man, did we ever suck! But it at 16, we thought we were it! Love the memories!
I like this comment i felt it in my heart sounds like some good old memories the ones that make you look back makes you sad and happy at the same time god bless you❤🎸❤️
What a masterpiece. I am 38 years old and I can't believe the kind of music that was created so long ago! Today's music can't even go in the same sentence with something like this!
My mom was 16 when this song aired and she's loved it ever since. Now she passed away and we played it on her cremation. Mom you will never be forgotten, eternal like the songs you loved
I was serving in the British Army in Germany when this was released and remember the furore it created by being over 4 minutes long. At that time all records were a max of 3 minutes which fitted nicely into 30 minute and 1 hour radio shows, FOUR MINUTES, who do these youngsters think they are? Well now we know, brilliant music that I am still enjoying at 78.
Regardless I'm American & 37yrs old, thank you for your service, & thanks for sharing your memory. Put a smile on my face reading that & I wish you well! Cheers from Portland, OR, USA
I can only add that from the bottom of my heart, I totally agree with you. I love this song since the first time I have heard it in my very early youth and I still do so at my age of 73 years . This song is NOT an oldy. It is by now a piece of Classical Music within its kind. The one thing I do not share with you is - being a woman - the Military Service 😊 I wish you many more years to enjoy this outstanding oevre and others of this kind!!! Claire from Switzerland 😊😊😊
LYRICS : There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God, I know I'm one My mother was a tailor She sewed my new blue jeans My father was a gamblin' man Down in New Orleans Now the only thing a gambler needs Is a suitcase and a trunk And the only time he'll be satisfied Is when he's all drunk (solo) Oh, mother, tell your children Not to do what I have done Spend your lives in sin and misery In the House of the Rising Sun Well, I got one foot on the platform The other foot on the train I'm goin' back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain Well, there is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God, I know I'm one
Мне было 12, когда, я, впервые услышала эту песню и до сих пор она у меня в сердце. Мне сейчас столько же сколько этой песне. Спасибо авторам такого шедевра. Она на века❤❤❤❤
My dad taught himself how to play this on guitar. He died from lung cancer in 2017 and this was the last song he ever played on guitar with hands so swollen he could hardly strum.. miss you dad..
My father was a sailor. He was nine years old when this masterpiece was out. He loved it and he was listening to it in any possible way he could. He was the person who taught me to appreciate this kind of music. Pink Floyd, Rainbow, Zeppelin, Animals. The last years we've been living apart, he didn't have access to the internet so I've been playing this song at RUclips and put him on speaker. He was always singing along. This song kept him company through his childhood, his adult life and his last years. Now that I lost him, it keeps me company. I've lost him a month ago and if it was allowed by the church, this is the song I would choose for his memorial. I hope he sings this song wherever he is.
A case of beer, an 8 track player, something in a capsule, and loan me a smoke. Ya, it was cold but it and the music taught a generation that there is more to life than success.
Funny seeing how young they were and how young they look to me now. I was 9 when this came out, living in Germany, as an Air Force brat. I remember hearing it on the radio and our landlady's kids got the album and played it for us.
This is a masterpiece, the music speaks for itself, but the pain and torment in the voice of Eric Burdon is incredible. At 23 years old he sings like he has lived 5 lives, and survived to tell the story.
To The Lighthouse I got barred from the music department at school for over playing this on the piano. Then when a 'teacher' using the term lightly, said 'Bob Dylan wasn't even known when the animal's made this' I threw my synthesizer at her thus being expelled for three months
You realize the Animals didn't write this song, correct? British bands in the 60s did so many remakes of old American Blues songs. American kids had no idea these songs were written and performed all over their own country. British kids knew what we had long before American kids learned of it.
Musicians play simple instruments, no show, no expensive costumes, no expensive lighting effects, only youth and talent and it turned out to be a masterpiece.
@@gillypow3712 i hate this take so much there was tons of shit music back then and same as now but old people love cherry picking greats from their time and comparing it to some bad music now
@@ink9426 don't hate ..all I did was highlight there was a much higher quality of music from that era ..not one week hits not superficial writing but high quality music 👌 🎶..and u used what is common today .....HATE..😔
@@gillypow3712 there are tons of great songs created today As well. The only difference is back in the day the popular music was also the highest of quality (at least mostly) Nowadays the most popular music is the same primitive song heard a thousand times. Thats why modern music seems bad, the most popular ones have the least effort and creativity put into them. They are formulic, repetitive well practiced, with very few risks. But still, there are high quality new music profuced its just not as mainstream As back in the day
This was one of my Dads favorite songs. He’s been gone a month ago today. It’s funny how music can stir so many old memories and emotions in you. Miss you Dad.
Blessings be with you,I lost my mother 5 years 4 months and 13 days ago and the pain of it is just as strong now as it was then.My mammy introduced me to this song 52 years ago,I loved it then and I still love it as much.RIP Mammy ❤ till we meet again xx
I know what you mean. Sundays while my Dad had coffee he would put this Spanish station on the radio. He didn't understand the words but liked the music. When I hear it , it reminds me of those Sunday mornings.
Alan Price would agree, but his bad ass playing along with the fact that he was the only one credited with arrangement of the song created major tensions in the band.
The smile of the guitarist at the end is priceless, he survived the house of the rising sun after strumming for his life for 4 minutes and he knows it. Well done you majestic bastard, well done.
Привет из Казахстана! Мне 49 лет. Мой отец жил во времена СССР, тогда не было доступа к такой музыке, мой отец ловил по ночам западное радио и записывал рок-музыку на круглые кассеты (бобины), тогда это было уголовное преступление
Добрый вечер! Харизматичен и брутален Эрик Бёртон в этом возрасте!💯💯💯 Песня шедевральна, прозвучала даже как- то по- другому, более высокопарно, более изящным тембром!🤩 ❤
Я не знаю какие у вас ассоциации с песней, я из России, это звучит очень стильно и красиво, я представляю американских ковбоев, деревенщину, рендеков, ветеранов Вьетнама, шерифов. Я люблю Америку 😎

I was washing my car the other day, and had this playing on my bluetooth speaker. My 86 year old grandfather walks out of his garage and hears this playing. He starts telling me all about how his older brother used to play this at full volume on the radio back when they were young, and that he hadn't heard the song since. It was so surreal, for those few moments, you could tell he was back in the 60's with his brother (Whom died before I was even born).
Шедевр. И песня, и музыка, и артисты! Дух захватывает 😮. И видео класс! Вроде так просто, но очень цепляет. Это не песея моей молодости, мне 38. Но я очень люблю рок, джаз, блюз. И вообще люблю музыку как явление. Это часть моей процессии, моей жизни.
I agree totally!!! I am a die hard Kiss fan original lineup only of course, Zeppelin, The Who, Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, AC/DC, and the Eagles as well!!! But, this is a masterpiece 👏!!!!
Well I am a classical musician. I played in my church for all church services, weddings, etc. I made some awesome $. People would come up to me when I was putting my music away and ask "how old are you?" I said 14. At times they threw $100 bills at me. So I hear the organ in these songs. But... I can only play by reading music. I can sight read like a genius. But I cannot play by ear. I enjoy all music!!!!
what a beautiful song...every time I hear it, I go back 60 years and my life flashes by with some fantastic memories. The best years of Western music...late 60's and the 70's. I am so lucky to be born in 1959 to experience the best music ever created by some of the best musicians ever.

A masterpiece in every sense. The storytelling. The build up. The intensity and heaviness. Those keys. The rawness in the vocals. Even the clip is art. I don't ever get bored of experiencing this
@@reirin_light2935 Sorry, but there's no correlation between being from "newer generations" and being used to liking garbage. No, wait. Yeah, you're right.
My favourite record of all time. In 1964 I was twelve years old. This song, the keyboard instrumental hit me like a thunderbolt. Play it weekly at least. Asked for it at my funeral. It is stupendous. Amazing. My all time fav' . Thanks guys.
Lyrics : There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God, I know I'm one My mother was a tailor Sewed my new blue jeans My father was a gamblin' man Down in New Orleans Now the only thing a gambler needs Is a suitcase and a trunk And the only time that he's satisfied Is when he's on a drunk Oh mother, tell your children Not to do what I have done Spend your lives in sin and misery In the House of the Rising Sun Well, I've got one foot on the platform And the other foot on the train I'm going back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain Well, there is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many young poor boy And God, I know I'm one
Esta música hay que situarla en su contexto social de la mitad del siglo XX. Era la época de lucha por los derechos civiles de la gente de color en US. La letra de la canción refleja su triste vida en Nueva Orleans. Gracias "The Animals". Grandes!
You got that right. And im only 36. So this song came out when my mother was in diapers. And im listening to the music. And my mom and grandparents were right. Even my generation is listening to this type of timeless music. Truly authentic. And way better listening than some of this garbage that they playing on the radio nowadays
It was kind of a shock the first time I saw Eric Burdon, and he's this young handsome guy! Somehow I expected that huge voice was coming from some 40 year old big husky guy. This song and his voice sound like it took two lifetimes to create. Masterpiece!
It's not about looking handsome or beautiful..it's about talent creating great music which will last eternal. This country ( and US) has produced fabulous music.
A better version of this song will never be recorded. I think it is actually theoretically impossible. We are living in the universe in which the best possible version of this song exists.
The piano is definitely overlooked sometimes I started playing 42 years ago and couldn’t play that even with the sheet music . Besides the song hits home too hard anyway
@@nikkichappi6744 Correct! ----> The song is about a brothel in New Orleans. "The House Of The Rising Sun" was named after its occupant Madame Marianne LeSoleil Levant (which means "Rising Sun" in French) and was open for business from 1862 (occupation by Union troops) until 1874, when it was closed due to complaints by neighbors. It was located at 826-830 St. Louis St.
How do you choose the greatest recording in music history? This certainly is a contender: the vocals, keyboard. haunting lyrics. It is perfection. I'm 69 and still listening to it regularly. I just talked to my 36 year old godson, and he too considers it one of the all time greats. It is timeless.
My father showed this song to me and now I'll always remember him by it. It was also one of the very first songs I've learned on the guitar, in his memory. It's a true gift to us, younger generations, that people like you not only share their wisdom and warnings, but also the very best things you've experienced in life before our time:)
I totally agree with you!!! I am 67 and listen to this regularly. The younger ones these days don't realize what they missed. The keyboardist/organist is off the charts. It was a great time to experience.
Yeah because they'd practiced it beforehand, like alot, they came up with it when they were opening for chuck berry then after that tour was done they went to the studio and recorded it
@@jalel_z2867 i dont know if youve ever recorded music, wont assume neither, but no matter how much you practice, when you start recording its wayyyy different
I remember as a young lad of 17 going to my local pub “ The Rising Sun” (in Sudbury Hill In West London UK 🇬🇧 ) on a Friday night. We would listen to the pub singer/pianist all evening belting out all sorts of songs, but when he started singing this at the end of evening the whole pub would join in. That was 40 years ago now, happy memories of simpler times.
It's very hard to find pubs like that in the States. I never have liked the US bar scene so it was a surprise to me how much I enjoyed going to pubs in Ireland during a visit. Wish I could find one like that around home.
My mom told me that my dad would play this song when I was still in my mom's tummy. This song still strikes a cord to this day 37yrs later with me. It's powerful!
@@FloridaStormChaser Fair enough, it's a great song! But it's not exactly one I'd associate with, you know, pregnancy and a hopeful future. That said, I've never been much of a lyrics guy anyway.
For over 40 years now I have thought of this video as the worlds first real music video. 17 years before MTV. It is filmed just like most music videos would later be filmed. Outstanding!
This song hits different when it Rains at night while its Windy Seeing lightning goes off in a Neon lights city smoking a marlboro red cigarette Bad english i am not american
@@texan-american200and a folk classic long long before that. The first ever man to record it learned it from his grandparents, and said that it was “too old to talk about”
One of the first songs I learned to play on guitar. 40 years latter, I taught a very close friend. I didn’t realize what an impact it had, until he had it played at his funeral in 2023. RIP my friend!
@Jan Pasquin Casadella Chas Chandler played the bass. When he left the Animals he discovered Jimi Hendrix and took him to the UK to become a star. Not bad work!
Simply amazing. When my father was driving us home from my grandmother‘s house when I was a kid, the DJ on the radio played this song back to back twice. It is simply my favorite song of all time. I will never forget that memory.
Before the pandemic I volunteered at an aged care centre and I worked the a resident that wanted to use the computer. I introduced him to Spotify. He wanted me to add this song to his playlist. I found out during the week that he passed away on Sunday. RIP Ellis.
Please stop this bs about pandemy.. it was economy strike and big froud. All restrictions in my country was a joke and I know ppl who was in it. Now suddenly all ended with new "fear". #notvegetable.
The strength and clarity of Eric's voice stands out brilliantly through the music, even when he is surrounded by class A rock musicians. And the soulful melancholy in the words are reflected in his eyes, as he pleads; "Mother, tell your children not to do what I have done." It is mesmerizing to watch this video, with the slow and purposeful stroll, as the guitarists follow their leader. The keyboard and drums are the glue that blends this masterpiece together, the guitar and bass give it life, but the vocalist steals the show for posterity. An absolute classic!
Eric is himselve with no glamour or fancy clouths the voice is authentic he is a strong male and those men do not exist enymore... he is not brutal like a lot of men in fancy clouths this day's... AND HE TELLS TRUTHS love the whole Eric..
Gilbert so well said. God yes. It IS a masterpiece. He made 100+ yr old folk song of the hlls and the dirt poor brought to everyone. The Eric/Animals were great.
It is. It is. It is. I've never wavered from that belief in 60 years. I've never once not got goosebumps and my mind blown listening to this. And Eric's voice! It's a gift.
This song is everything. Eric's soulful singing, Hilton's famous arpeggio guitar opening, Alan's powerful Vox solo, Chas's simple yet and effective bass playing, and John's soft playing on his Premier Drums. These guys created magic that many bands will never re-create.
Thanks for the names! You could've used their full names but that's okay. Jim Price I found out was the organist who contributed much as did the others!
He was 23 years old when he sang this! It's amazing, he's projecting the pain and anguish of someone much, much older! One of the best rock voices ever, Eric Burdon!
@@eddiewinehosen6665 Голос не мальчика а видавшего жизнь зрелого мужчины.Не верилось что это его голос. Не знаю о чём он поёт но с полной отдачей.Вложился в песню весь,молодец.
Don't let the separation of time keep you from experiencing things be it music movies or wisdom the past has more for us then most will ever realize and it's all beneficial in one way or another
@@mejtes100 дык ныне они взрослые уже не дядьки -а дедки, а тогда они были хулиганы с спальных окраин и могли спокойно помеситься в пабе с такими же рабочими пацанами, это не Куин и даже не Лед Зеппелин, эстеты, это простые рабочие парни! посмотри перевод песни!
Just absolutely electric. The style, shot framing, guitars shredding, that VOX cyclically cranking away, the walk around like pole bearers at a funeral, and the look on his face telling you just how blown away your about to become.
You have a way with words, sir. You did almost as good a job articulating your comment as The Animals did a good job with this song. Now don't go getting a big head; I said ALMOST. The Animals hit it out of the park with this cover; if they never recorded anything else worthwhile (and they most certainly have) this cover alone would be enough to cement their reputation...

LYRICS :
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans
Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he'll be satisfied
Is when he's all drunk
(solo)
Oh, mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one

I remember this song, I'm 82 & the song gives me chills & the voice is very powerful, glad to hear again
Yes- twas just yesterday when we (band nerds) were cruising down the highway singing this at the top of our lungs. Yesterday I tell you!
A case of beer, an 8 track player, something in a capsule, and loan me a smoke. Ya, it was cold but it and the music taught a generation that there is more to life than success.
Wish you another 20 years with this song.
You have anderstood it. OK.
Yes and Burden was just 23 years old. What a voice for a kid!
Funny seeing how young they were and how young they look to me now. I was 9 when this came out, living in Germany, as an Air Force brat. I remember hearing it on the radio and our landlady's kids got the album and played it for us.

And those keys!!!!
This song is ahead of its time. Total badass piece and haunting voice. Still gives me goosebumps in 2022.

You realize the Animals didn't write this song, correct? British bands in the 60s did so many remakes of old American Blues songs. American kids had no idea these songs were written and performed all over their own country. British kids knew what we had long before American kids learned of it.

@@gillypow3712 thats just your opinion
@@gillypow3712 there are tons of great songs created today As well. The only difference is back in the day the popular music was also the highest of quality (at least mostly)
Nowadays the most popular music is the same primitive song heard a thousand times. Thats why modern music seems bad, the most popular ones have the least effort and creativity put into them. They are formulic, repetitive well practiced, with very few risks. But still, there are high quality new music profuced its just not as mainstream As back in the day
Мне 71г.но как услышу эту песню моей юности цепляет до слёз.

This was one of my Dads favorite songs. He’s been gone a month ago today. It’s funny how music can stir so many old memories and emotions in you. Miss you Dad.
REST IN PEACE
Blessings be with you,I lost my mother 5 years 4 months and 13 days ago and the pain of it is just as strong now as it was then.My mammy introduced me to this song 52 years ago,I loved it then and I still love it as much.RIP Mammy ❤ till we meet again xx
Your dad hat great taste!

I know what you mean. Sundays while my Dad had coffee he would put this Spanish station on the radio. He didn't understand the words but liked the music. When I hear it , it reminds me of those Sunday mornings.
People talk about guitar solos all the time, but can we just take a minute to appreciate that amazing organ solo?

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one
[Verse 1]
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he'll be satisfied
Is when he's all drunk

Oh, mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

When he's ON a drunk not all drunk
I was washing my car the other day, and had this playing on my bluetooth speaker. My 86 year old grandfather walks out of his garage and hears this playing.
He starts telling me all about how his older brother used to play this at full volume on the radio back when they were young, and that he hadn't heard the song since.
It was so surreal, for those few moments, you could tell he was back in the 60's with his brother (Whom died before I was even born).
I am 81 and understand you and your grand dad very well.

It was kind of a shock the first time I saw Eric Burdon, and he's this young handsome guy! Somehow I expected that huge voice was coming from some 40 year old big husky guy. This song and his voice sound like it took two lifetimes to create. Masterpiece!
It's not about looking handsome or beautiful..it's about talent creating great music which will last eternal. This country ( and US) has produced fabulous music.
A better version of this song will never be recorded. I think it is actually theoretically impossible. We are living in the universe in which the best possible version of this song exists.

The piano is definitely overlooked sometimes I started playing 42 years ago and couldn’t play that even with the sheet music . Besides the song hits home too hard anyway
@@nikkichappi6744 Correct! ----> The song is about a brothel in New Orleans. "The House Of The Rising Sun" was named after its occupant Madame Marianne LeSoleil Levant (which means "Rising Sun" in French) and was open for business from 1862 (occupation by Union troops) until 1874, when it was closed due to complaints by neighbors. It was located at 826-830 St. Louis St.

How do you choose the greatest recording in music history? This certainly is a contender: the vocals, keyboard. haunting lyrics. It is perfection. I'm 69 and still listening to it regularly. I just talked to my 36 year old godson, and he too considers it one of the all time greats. It is timeless.
My father showed this song to me and now I'll always remember him by it. It was also one of the very first songs I've learned on the guitar, in his memory. It's a true gift to us, younger generations, that people like you not only share their wisdom and warnings, but also the very best things you've experienced in life before our time:)
I totally agree with you!!! I am 67 and listen to this regularly. The younger ones these days don't realize what they missed. The keyboardist/organist is off the charts. It was a great time to experience.

I remember as a young lad of 17 going to my local pub “ The Rising Sun” (in Sudbury Hill In West London UK 🇬🇧 ) on a Friday night. We would listen to the pub singer/pianist all evening belting out all sorts of songs, but when he started singing this at the end of evening the whole pub would join in. That was 40 years ago now, happy memories of simpler times.
I envy those pubs of yours. Sounds like fun, especially with songs like these.
It's very hard to find pubs like that in the States. I never have liked the US bar scene so it was a surprise to me how much I enjoyed going to pubs in Ireland during a visit. Wish I could find one like that around home.

Everything about this is perfect. What a band. What a voice. What a time.
One of the greatest tracks EVER created!
What a sound…
Love this song so muchh
The strength and clarity of Eric's voice stands out brilliantly through the music, even when he is surrounded by class A rock musicians. And the soulful melancholy in the words are reflected in his eyes, as he pleads; "Mother, tell your children not to do what I have done." It is mesmerizing to watch this video, with the slow and purposeful stroll, as the guitarists follow their leader. The keyboard and drums are the glue that blends this masterpiece together, the guitar and bass give it life, but the vocalist steals the show for posterity. An absolute classic!
you should listen to lost dog street band the way Benjamin todd sings his soul into the music is just like how eric does.
Eric is himselve with no glamour or fancy clouths the voice is authentic he is a strong male
and those men do not exist enymore... he is not brutal like a lot of men in fancy clouths this
day's... AND HE TELLS TRUTHS love the whole Eric..
Alan Price was on keyboards, he later joined Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames . Loved Eric Burden, great voice.
I completely agree!
Gilbert so well said. God yes. It IS a masterpiece. He made 100+ yr old folk song of the hlls and the dirt poor brought to everyone. The Eric/Animals were great.
It is. It is. It is. I've never wavered from that belief in 60 years. I've never once not got goosebumps and my mind blown listening to this.
And Eric's voice! It's a gift.
This song is everything. Eric's soulful singing, Hilton's famous arpeggio guitar opening, Alan's powerful Vox solo, Chas's simple yet and effective bass playing, and John's soft playing on his Premier Drums. These guys created magic that many bands will never re-create.
This past Saturday (5/21) would've been Hilton's 79th birthday. What a legend!!

Outstanding voice.. Still listening to this great group in 2024..
Ferme ta gueule
I never, ever get tired of this song.
I heard this being played by an amazing man at a market sometime recently. Much respect to him for his taste.
Me too 👏👏
Same. It's unbelievably timeless for something that came out in 1964. It instills an emotion in me that I thought only dreams could capture.
Me too 😍😍😍😍
I kind of imagine that if I were to go back in time - that I would have some amazing music to listen to -in this case.
One of my dad's ALL TIME Favorite songs. It's painful to hear this song now, since I lost him almost three weeks ago. I miss you dad.
I share your pain.
condolences from an internet stranger thousands of miles away from you are useless but condolences none the less
you will feel better over time, I loss my uncle in 2018 unecxpected, every day you feel better, even if its a little. I pray for you
As long as you remember him he lives on. God speed son
I lost my uncle 8 hours ago
58 лет! Я живу на этом свете меньше, но мурашки по коже бегут от этого исполнения, от этой песни! Спасибо 💘💖💝🌹💐👋👋👋
Спасибо подержали
я всегда думал, что эту песню какие то взрослые дядьки поют :) в ковбойских шляпах и с пистолетами ) а это щеглы какие то :) но как исполняют, это да
@@mejtes100 дык ныне они взрослые уже не дядьки -а дедки, а тогда они были хулиганы с спальных окраин и могли спокойно помеситься в пабе с такими же рабочими пацанами, это не Куин и даже не Лед Зеппелин, эстеты, это простые рабочие парни!
посмотри перевод песни!

Surely one of the greatest songs of all time .
Just absolutely electric. The style, shot framing, guitars shredding, that VOX cyclically cranking away, the walk around like pole bearers at a funeral, and the look on his face telling you just how blown away your about to become.
*you’re*
😀
You have a way with words, sir. You did almost as good a job articulating your comment as The Animals did a good job with this song. Now don't go getting a big head; I said ALMOST. The Animals hit it out of the park with this cover; if they never recorded anything else worthwhile (and they most certainly have) this cover alone would be enough to cement their reputation...
and not an instrument plugged into the amps.......... Still, a great song.
The singers eyes are intense, and that voice coming out of him….AWESOME.
The most dangerous baby face you would ever come across. Eric Burdon left quite an impression...
