Y'know, there's an Irish philosophy that this song reminds me of. There are two things to worry about in life; whether you will get sick or not. If not, then there's no need to worry. If you get sick, then there's two things to worry about; whether or not you will get better. If you do, then there's no need to worry. If you don't, then there's two things to worry about; whether you will go to Heaven or Hell. If you go to Heaven, then there's no need to worry. If you go to Hell, then you'll be so busy shaking hands with everyone you know, you won't have time to worry.
there was a variation of this written in the grate britsh Almanack witch was a book given to britsh solders in WW1 basicly it changes getting sick with being in a safe place or a dangerous place and so on
Or you can just meet him at one of his concerts. I got to babble to him how much I appreciated him. Voltaire's really awesome and his shows are amazing. Hope you've had a chance!
@@JoelRiter I don't think my people will allow it but my wish would be to play this as my service. No intro or outro. After cremation of course. By then everyone working at the funeral home would have to make a show of it , if that's what I paid for. Ok, in too deep now . Lol . Have a wonderful day!
@@jenniehughes6927 this and the "lord of the underground" song shall be on loop during my funeral, nothing else. It is my dream to add that extra knife in 🤣
I can imagine that, if the Bible and Christianity in general is correct, that as a punishment, Voltaire would be sent to Heaven, just to spite him. Or not, I don't know
"Oh good lord, I only ask you, forgive The self righteous who deceive When your words they twist We both know Hell don't exist Except in the minds of the poor fools who believe" Amen to that, my dude.
Recently went to the funeral of a dear friend's grandfather, only for this to be played as we exited the building.......Always knew I loved that man for a reason. Most epic OAP I've EVER met!!!!!
"Devil went down to Georgia, he was lookin for souls to steal" That's fucking bullshit because i wouldn't be caught dead in... Georgia. Hehe. it's part of a song.
***** Well, how did you think I died? Obviously from trying to get the song to play at my funeral, but I'm still kicking... so I didn't die from trying. *Unless* I'm a zombie.
At my university, there are these preachers that come (we call them "Quad Gods") and I have always wanted to play a song like this as they talk. Personally, I'd also like to quote contradictory bible passage right back at the self-righteous pricks.
raccoon crtic How all of the college students are going to hell.How homosexuality causes all the problems in the world. How women need to be subservient to men. BS like that. And they try to use the Bible to justify it. It such an aspect of the university that its kind of treated like street performance. Most ignore them, some argue with them, a few leave them speechless. It's a way to have real easy entertainment. One of the funniest stories regarding the Quad God's was that we had some Mormon Elders at the school for a mission and they were standing there with the rest of us watching the Quad Gods and they looked like they were watching the most alien thing they'd ever seen, the rest of us were laughing at their confusion. They then started talking very politely about their beliefs, and every there ignored the Quad God and had a pleasant conversation with the Elders.
LOL! What if you die on your birthday!?! Would you want, "Happy Birthday My Old Friend" played too or if you had to choose which one!?! Yes, you can STILL be a puppet regardless of song choice(s) and for one and/or both songs! :)! Happy Birthday, whenever it is!!!
I had a friend of mine who had cancer luckily he seems to be freed from it completely and no worries now but at one point it seemed certain he wasn't going to make it and he asked me to play it and I made damn sure I had it saved to play on his cars radio that he said he'd give to me. Good stories tied to this for me
Appreciating how this song is still such a banger, and the blending of lyrics and instrumentals are just perfect. I too need this played at my funeral. And as someone who was born and raised in Jersey.. yes. Absolutely.
Voltaire can make anything sound sexy! i love this guy... he has an awesome singing voice and range, and his lyrics are always brilliant perfect combo = mind blown
I love this song. I would suggest reading Larry Niven's "Inferno," where the lead character comes up with a legitimate reason why a loving, forgiving God whould have a "Hell" in the first place.
I'm of the mindset that if hell does exist everyone goes to it regardless and its whatever we do while we're alive dictates how long for then we go up.
Fun Fact: The Bible itself barely even mentions hell or anything relating to it. Almost all of our modern conception of Hell comes from Dante's The Inferno, which was mostly him trash talking people he didn't like while making people he did like seem more perfect. Including his dead girlfriend who, in the third part of the trilogy, Paradisio, is so pure and good and righteous that she gets to spend all her time directly chatting with God himself.
I wish I knew what this was when I was in primary school because we had talent shows and my school was very religious, they literally shoved christianity down your throat so I just became an atheist and I would have loved to see my teachers faces :D
This song is so damn awesome in every aspect I can think of, takin' a normally morbid thought, or phrase, and making it cheery and upbeat so fuckin' catchy.
I want a DC batman movie where they kill Red Hood off in the movie just so he can show up during the funeral service to sing this song. Or batman Bruce could totally pull off this song.
Is it weird that I'm Christian and I freaking love this song? It's by far one of the best songs Voltaire has made. Not trying to sound like a special snowflake btw.
This song honestly made me laugh because when it comes down to the SPN fandom we're all going to hell at once with this playing at our collective funerals XD
+Darth Spock (Mirror Kirk's T'hy'la) Well, at least we would recognize each other XD They probably have a own section for the SPN fandom down there like: "Alright, if sinners and liars could please go over to the left over there please, lawyers you can follow them. Now... murderers can go to the right along with rapists and pedophiles. And then there's... aha! Crossroards deal, bad call by the way, you can go over there thank you. And last, but not least: does anyone here watch the show supernatural? Yes, you people get a special seat right in the middle here. So if the spn fandom would so kindly follow me and the rest of you will be picked up in a few hundred years, thank you"
+Darth Spock (Mirror Kirk's T'hy'la) Supernatural was good but it really felt like they were trying to remake X-Files with new characters. Not to mention they're constantly referencing X-Files in the show, even calling each other Mulder and Scully.
So hilarious ad placement after listening to this was Pureflix. 😂 I think this is the wrong demographic for that but go off lol Had to comment it here since the official has comments off.
Dead Majestic Magical Pus Filled Eyes wrong, it is animated music video, the fact that they use only anime is a different story but look at justice league amv and you will see that i am right
Since you didn't know the lyrics to the scat singing bit, here it is: BA BA-RA PA BA, BA BAM NAU MMDA RAM, DARUN DU DAU PAU, RAU, RAU, NAU TSRABA BARAM RAPA PARUM DUM NAU, RU-DA-RU RA TU TAU BA PA PA PA RLAPAM BARAM PAU!

Anyone reading this, if Voltaire dies, Play this song to honor him
Can do

Yeah I actually see him actually having that idea.
Congratulations, you just won the internet.
I can imagine that, if the Bible and Christianity in general is correct, that as a punishment, Voltaire would be sent to Heaven, just to spite him.
Or not, I don't know
For him heaven is hell for him hell is his heaven
That’s actually my belief. Doe, Im don’t believe in jesus as god. I believe Hell is a great place to live in while heaven is a shit place.
The historical Voltaire (the philosopher) was asked to renounce Satan on his deathbed. He told the priest "now isn't the time to make enemies".

An douchebag of the school, the whor of the town, mi cousin... now that I think, almost everyone except my self-righteous family
This song is proof that Voltaire can do anytning and it would sound good.
The dirtiest song that ain't XD that's real proof.

Doing it as I type this comment
I work as a A/V technician (although I'm an atheist) at a church, and I hum this all the time there.
amohotepv lol
as a Christian, i can still say that this song is amazing
agreed
Amen
When you realize that his NAME is Christian.
If they play this at my funeral I will rise from my coffin to dance to this one last time
I can see it now... this song is playing at my funeral.
I'll make it happen, or die trying!
But wont you already be dead? unless you come back as a ghoul.
*****
Well, how did you think I died? Obviously from trying to get the song to play at my funeral, but I'm still kicking... so I didn't die from trying.
*Unless* I'm a zombie.

I can agree I want to leave this world making people happy
Curse you, past self! I was going to say that...
I can just imagine someone about to be executed singing this and dancing with demon.

At my university, there are these preachers that come (we call them "Quad Gods") and I have always wanted to play a song like this as they talk. Personally, I'd also like to quote contradictory bible passage right back at the self-righteous pricks.
What contradictory Bible passage? And to what?
what do they talk about
raccoon crtic How all of the college students are going to hell.How homosexuality causes all the problems in the world. How women need to be subservient to men. BS like that. And they try to use the Bible to justify it.
It such an aspect of the university that its kind of treated like street performance. Most ignore them, some argue with them, a few leave them speechless. It's a way to have real easy entertainment.

Brony Critic huuh ,that's why im Satanist , look up joy of satan.com for more info
raccoon crtic I don't think I will, no offense.
lol are there references to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody and the traditional saints go marching song in this?
Don't you say
And My Way by Frank Sinatra
I definitely picked up on the saints go marching in lol
Uhh yup...way to go captain obvious.
It’s a work of art, isn’t it?
"Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me!" Yes! Voltaire quoting Queen!

DeviliciousNails ahhah you litteraly made me laugh at loud thats so messed up but freaking hilarious xD
Innocent bystander Well, if you like, you can come to my funeral and watch :3
LOL! What if you die on your birthday!?! Would you want, "Happy Birthday My Old Friend" played too or if you had to choose which one!?! Yes, you can STILL be a puppet regardless of song choice(s) and for one and/or both songs! :)! Happy Birthday, whenever it is!!!
TheMechanicalGirl999 That would be SO rad xp
TheMechanicalGirl999 You mean Shakespeare?
sounds country melancholic light hearted and just banterish this is a great song all round
***** stalker much anyways it's okay besides good music is good music
***** i was joking about the stalker part but not about it being good music
***** so do i but i know when a conversation has gone stale
It's not country. It's a slightly modified version of the song "When the Saints Come Marching In"
Got this recommended to me after watching Hazbin Hotel, you nailed it youtube algorithm .
I had a friend of mine who had cancer luckily he seems to be freed from it completely and no worries now but at one point it seemed certain he wasn't going to make it and he asked me to play it and I made damn sure I had it saved to play on his cars radio that he said he'd give to me.

theres a country song that plays at work that reminds me of this, but it talks more about heaven
Now I know my prefered mode of travel to hell...
We can share a basket and sing this on the waXD
Why not! After all, We're all going to hell!
***** There's seats for all of us in hell, I'll make us some tea! (If you guys want any xD)
***** Its no problem, do you want coffee instead? I'm having a little tea party in Hell
***** you can have chocolate milk XD but I'm still having a tea party
This is gonna be played at my funeral, right after the Space Jam theme tune.
Me too! But instead of space jam I'll have them play highway to hell
This song always makes me smile!
i always just sing this on my to my bus stop and i get the strangest looks
uHH,,, gAMZEE WHERE'S YOUR QUIRK
Why can't you go to my school? We'd sit in the back of the bus and bellow this song out every day! My friends would join in too!
look somone directly into eyes as soon as "including you" part comes up
Voltaire can make anything sound sexy!
i love this guy...
he has an awesome singing voice and range, and his lyrics are always brilliant
perfect combo = mind blown
I can imagine Duke carrying a little version of himself in a basket while walking through Hell
Anyone else happily dance along with the instrumental? XD
draggy76 yup it's very hard not to 😁
draggy76 yes!
shit I'm dancing to every word of this song and instruments.
I think it’s impossible not to
draggy76 MEEEEE
I love this song. I would suggest reading Larry Niven's "Inferno," where the lead character comes up with a legitimate reason why a loving, forgiving God whould have a "Hell" in the first place.
Bonus points for the diss on Jersey.
*dances with Lucifer*
"Theres a special place in hell for you"
Me: yeah, and I'm going there in a handbasket * finger guns *
This is basically Voltaire´s version of ´´Highway To Hell´´ By AC\DC
Never thought I'd do a bouncy jig to a song about hell.
God dammit, Voltaire, you make any song epic!
In the spirit of voltaire. I'm going to Hell.! Who's going with me.!!!!
Me
in my school's last day we have a full control on what to do.
This is the song the entire party.
Everyone danced along.
"even that one skewy kid"
"I rather be Kentucky Fried than Live and kicking in Jersey any day!" Soooooooooo true and I AM in KY.
Enjoying listening to this over and over again.
This really is a fabulous funeral song for all us degenerates.
this is going to my "when i die" playlist
only voltaire can make a song like this. i love him so much.
Thank you, Head Trip, for showing me the wonderfully morbid world of voltaire!
I'm of the mindset that if hell does exist everyone goes to it regardless and its whatever we do while we're alive dictates how long for then we go up.
This song will be played at my funeral. I want people to feel all sentimental up until the chorus and then they will laugh and not be sad.
"I WIN! Now you can ALL go to Hell!" -Blutarch Mann 2015
(Also, this song does fit with playing on that Scream Fortress map for TF2. It's perfect.)
everyone is so morbid here and i love it
Fun Fact: The Bible itself barely even mentions hell or anything relating to it. Almost all of our modern conception of Hell comes from Dante's The Inferno, which was mostly him trash talking people he didn't like while making people he did like seem more perfect. Including his dead girlfriend who, in the third part of the trilogy, Paradisio, is so pure and good and righteous that she gets to spend all her time directly chatting with God himself.
It’s actually arguable that Hell was created as an afterlife concept after the Nicean Creed.
For anyone who doesn’t know what Voltaire did at the end of the song it’s called ‘lilting’.
If I could sing well I would love to sing this right in the middle of the bible/religious patch in my city centre.
I was listening to this on 21st December 2012 :)
ummmmmmmm....... 666k views............
Having this play at my funeral, see y'all in hell. Don't worry, I'm saving my cat a seat. :)
I imagine a fun energetic dance sequence in a movie to this song, am I the only one that gets that feeling?
Best song I've heard ALL GODDAMN DAY!!!! Absolutely amazing.
I'm with you
This is honestly one of the most cheerful songs I've ever heard!

When the instrumental parts kick in, I can't help bopping back and forth with both of my middle fingers up and a goofy grin on my face lol
Love the riff on "When The Saints Go Marching In". It is also true, there are very, very few people bad enough to deserve Hell (if there was one).
Rockstar studio npcs : existing
People who don't regret making their lives hell :
this song becomes 50% funnier when you realize the chorus is based on "when the saints come marching in"
I wanna write a musical of Paradise Lost and have this be the closing song
I can't wait for hell

Love it.
Never seen anyone so optimistic about going to hell
