I read a lot of these comments. He sings from the heart. He is a deep thinker, that’s how he wrote this song. It was meant for all wars. He is not making light of this song, he is performing it and if you want the original version then go buy an album. E R I C B U R D O N .....IS THE GREATEST WHITE MAN BLUES SINGER EVER PERIOD. Just listen and enjoy as I have since I saw him when I was 16. ✌️
You told them 70yrs and colored ❤
Yes! You tell them Sheri! I agree!
Eric burton is hard core ❤old school grew up listening at 65yrs still enjoy listenin😊
Eric Burdon and the Animals were helping pave the way to where we are now. They were an incredible band.
Wow. He's great...
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ grande Eric ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Qué linda canción con esa gran voz enamora ❣️❣️
одна из величайших песен!
Se o rock tivesse uma voz , esta com certeze seria a sua voz . ERIC THE BEST
This song is the most ignored masterpiece of all classic rock!! It is extremely rare that a modern rendition sounds as epic and passionate as it did back than, but this does!
Ohhh man, great stuff! The best!
So good!
the best "thou shalt not kill!" of all time. thanks for the upload.
brilliant great live version!! many many thanks for posting
The song is about the dilemma faced by the armed forces chaplain(sky pilot). He is faced with the problem of trying to give encouragement to soldiers whose job it is to kill, while he must live with his credo of "Thou shalt not kill". It was powerful then and it still is. Real life stuff.
Awesome!!! Eric Burdon invented Cool.
AWESOME!!!!!!!
thanks for posting..
A WONDERFUL LIVE VERSION!!!!!
As great of a singer, a performer, as wonderful as a writer and as much clowning he is doing the tune he means everything he is singing with monumental conviction even through times of unbalance
@jjgodioso verdade, Eric Burdon é foda!!!!!!!!!
It doen't matter what war is was about because all wars suck!!!!
...ummmmm.....wrong.
Grande inmenso erick
Erick eres un animal salvaje único saludos desde peru
WOW
Great
This song isn't about Vietnam War. Because in the studio version of this song a Stuka dive bomber is heard. In Vietnam there were no propeller dive bombers. Jets took their place. You can also hear bagpipes, Americans never played them in Vietnam before the upcoming conflict. This song is about British pilots during the Battle of Britain and Chaplain who gives them Blessings of the Lord.
This is the best live version of this song I've seen on YT! And Eric loved singing God's name out loud so much, my favorite part of this song: He smiles to young soldiers tells them it's alright, he knows of their fear in the forthcoming fight. Soon there'll be blood and many will die. Mothers and fathers back home they will cry. As the young men move out into the battle zone. He's feeling good with GOD you're never alone. He feels kinda tired so he lays on his bed, hopes the men will find courage in the words that he said. You're soldiers of God you must understand, the fate of the Holy One is in your hands, may the Lord give your strength to do your job really well. If it all was worthy, only time it will tell. In the morning they return, they got tears in their eyes, the stench of death, drifts up to the skies. A young soldier so ill, looks after sky pilot, remembers the word: "THOU SHALT NOT KILLLLLL!" Pray for worldwide peace
canzone stupenda
my favourite song of all time,, listen to the words;-) fantastic,, thanks for the post!!!
Still good, great, and plenty of punch!
Go ahead, reach the sky.
Needs pipes.
Plus Neal Morse & Dave Meros from Spock's Beard!
I always thought this song was about the lifers who train others to go into combat. Until I read the description on RUclips I never realized it was about a chaplain.
@puldrection very well put. drafted in 1970, this was edgy, but then, so was a lot of higher concious crap.
@WytZox1 Exactly!! A sky pilot is a preacher/chaplain..a man of the cloth. Not a 'flyer of planes'.
Perdón eric
@Grunt6869 yeah, I picked up an item of clothing which label noted 'made in vietnam' , I threw it on the floor
@aparryw I loved this since I was a really little kid- never realised it was an antiwar song. I always found it very sad though.
Great ,paved the way yes but todays music is so far from the path its almost just noise.
he sounds & looks rough, but oh well I would only dream of having a bit of his success
How do you look in your 70s?
I’m almost 78 and I sure don’t look like I did when I was young. Nobody does. I think he has looked great throughout the years, but no, not the same as when he was a baby faced 20 year old.
seven people ´ll never reach the sky
@Grunt6869 LIe of vietnam!LOL! Your a thinker!!
Is he on Oxies?
its a great rendition but .. and i dont mean to be in any way insulting...
He (eric) should stick to the original sound to the T.......... after all we all try to copy originals that way.......... This song is so beautiful... it brings many emotions and makes me want to jump out of a plane without a parachute....... SALUTE!!! ERIC!!!!!
@Trashfished Sky Pilot was one of my top songs while serving in Nam,play it against mans religion to the word and the lie that was Vietnam maybe you'll find a chuckle.Right now Nike has set up house in Vietnam while Binh Danh as a Viet immigrant is hanging pictures of Dead Nam Vets and calling it ART.
mmm i wish he sounded like before ;/
Eric seems to get a bit lost when he strays from the original arrangements. Good show, though. Just a little too shapeless.
@Trashfished That's ''you're'' a thinker and Ive actually served in Vietnam to ''YOUR''sideline opinion. Try and find something you've actually experience .
whats with the shredding??
He looks like he either just crawled out of bed...or its time to go to bed lol
Old version is better...
Die alte Version gefällt mir besser...
POLI3721 @frank02111 Hey Frank02111, I Too Have The Question, 42 Yrs. Now?? I Think, I Think The Answer Is: "JUST GO WITH IT, I Guess! Was With Co. A 7Spt Bn, 199Th Lite Infantry Brigade, RVN, 12/8/67-12/6/68 ".Little Do We Mortals Know". Rock-N-Roll, BUBBA! PS. My Song Then," Got To Get Out OF This Of Place! 3 months ago
I flew a plane today :).
Some of you spend way too much time trying to interpret the lyrics.
Its in the BIBLE ''thou shalt not Kill ''I believe the theme behind the song to be, were as the lie of Vietnam was never truly confronted by our religious leaders to that of the teachings of JESUS. as we were sent out as SOLDIERS to kill or be killed.
Lost it.
Nap time....
@Grunt6869 Thank you for stopping communism in its tracks. I guess being on the sidelines let me see the end result. Again thanks.
Sadly... Eric looks wasted here. It's like he's not even taking the song seriously. He should!
I have always loved Eric, but he never was a deep thinker.
His lyrics reflect that.
When you confuse "you should not murder" with "you should not kill," you better drop to your knees and ask to be educated pretty quickly.
*shrug*
That's not good for your ears.
Potresti lavorare con....ANATO...AMERICANA...🐷🐷🐷🔥🔥🔥👹👹👹
