I"m a white guy and I say this as sincerely as I can. I've been to a black pentecostal church before and this demonstration is freaking spot-on as to what it was like. I don't care if you are religious or not, every single white person needs to experience BLACK PRAISE at least once in their life. I'll never forget it.
I went to one mass with my friend at a black either Baptist or maybe pentecostal church and it was the best time I've ever had inside a church, I wish we had gone to that church instead of our stale, judgey catholic one
Hispanic here. I need it. I want it.
🎉 You're right. I'm a white chick and go to a black church. It's awesome! The music is phenomenal too!
Housed in the family games……. 0:21
Hmmmmm mmmmmm
Elwood's jogging in place has become my go to dance move in life
It’s going to start to be mines too 😅
😂…that’s the whitest thing ever when he does that. ❤️
Yeah but Elwood NEVER really caught the Holy Spirit…😢 he just followed his brother…I think…🤔
Dry white toast is making a come back
Under normal circumstances, I truly despise musicals. However, The Blues Brothers will always be on my top ten greatest movies of all-time list. It's truly a timeless classic.
..... it's not a corny, unrealistic musical it's a gritty, down to earth realistic one.
Yes, ... yes I am jokin'
Same
Funny I never considered it a muscial.
@@raytflower ... that's the beautiful trick of the movie.
Agree. The same thing about CaddyShack, it's about golf FFS...and it's the number one go to movie for most guys, it's the most quoted second to casablanca or visa versa..
A church sermon led by James bloody Brown, a joyous crowd, so excited and energetic, and ends with John Belushi freaking out in glorious fashion… and the movie’s only just getting started. Legendary
This is one of my favourite movie scenes because for the first few minutes of the movie, you don’t know if the movie is gonna be a drama or an adventure movie or whatever, but this scene absolutely sets the tone for the movie
Their was the penguin
Such a brief appearance, but James Brown as Reverend Cleophus was somehow the most brilliant casting in the history of film.
Add Carrie Fisher and Aretha Franklin .. then you have it.
@@Bertram-vk2gt Ray Charles.
RIP James Brown (May 3, 1933 - December 25, 2006), aged 73
And
RIP John Belushi (January 24, 1949 - March 5, 1982), aged 33
You both will be remembered as legends.
Just awesome how much these two guys have done for blues 🫡😎
And Ray Charles.
and aretha😢@@okjeffy6581
Not to mention Aretha Franklin ❤
is it chaka khan?
Blues Brothers can never be remade. With all the musical talent this movie has and damage done. Impossible.
Blues Brothers 2000 lol
@@mws755That was more of a tribute sequel.
This is a church I would love to go to every Sunday!
Sun day= Saturn day, Sun Invictus. Iesus Christ is a death horse.
My father died March 31st 2022. His birthday was yesterday, April 15th 2022. Had to watch these to celebrate him, one of his fav movies. Happy birthday Daddio.
One of my old man's favorite movies too. May our old men rest in peace.
My Dad's birthday is also April 15. He passed in late August.
Why can’t we all just have some fun and enjoy life like this again? This movie should play over and over throughout the generations,!!!
You want to be governed instead.
Movies are part of the Brainwashing and indoctrination. Religion is our biggest curse.
@@je-freenorman7787 lol
Movies are the scam. The Silver screen is all phon-y bible stories. Ure script to act as you are cued. Hollywood is a religious cult too
Thanks satan that didn't happened
Music is the best medicine for the soul
Es verdad, amigo.
Preach!!
Absolutely!!!
AMEN!!!
Especially THIS music.
Chaka Khan, James Brown, John Belushi and Dan Ackroyd all in one scene...love this movie
Chaka Khan? I’ve seen this movie hundreds of times and had no idea? Where was she?
@@tamuman93 lead singer in choir.
Wow how?!
@@tamuman93 yup at that time she was unknown. How incredible is that???
@@starsantheoriginal - Very! I’m actually kind of amazed! This is quite the stunning fact.
Some of the shuffles by James Brown in this clip are off the scale. What a dancer and entertertainer he was. RIP you funk god.
I was thinking the same. They had trampolines, probably Russian poles for some of the dancers, but James, James, was James.
Yaaassss!!!!
The one at the 3:29 spot had ME gigging.
It really was an amazing film ...
One of the greatest movies of all times: so many legend-cameos, two of the best car chases in cinema, great music, great comedy, such a creative; original idea, and a car dropped from a helicopter.
This is just a perfect scene. So much energy and joy - just fantastic.
The foot work by belushi at 1:50 is awsome lol

It's 2021, and the Blues Brothers movie, continues to amaze me just as it did when I first saw it in the theater back in June 1980.
Thanks ... you just made me feel really old! 😄
Yeah! Hard to believe this movie is over four decades old! And better than most of what Hollywierd has been producing of late.
Yes! Two weeks ago, I was fortunate to catch the original Blues Brothers and Blues Brothers 2000 back to back!
Now I've found some of my favorite scenes of both movies right here on RUclips!
This one and Animal House. John Landis knew funny and did it with so much heart.
Cult movie. Sequel as well.
I was not even born when this film came out. I first watched it in 2007 nearly 27 years after its release.
Aside from the bustin flips, a few of the baptist churches I grew up in were this high energy at times...
I need to rewatch this movie, i've seen it, when i was like... 4 years old, 14 years ago..., Yep, really need to watch it again
Went to a church service in Bermuda long ago and it was practically just like this. Dancing and singing like I never seen before. It was fantastic!
Churches are scary places full of dark magic. Be warned. They are not what people believe they are.
@@je-freenorman7787 you serious? Must have been to the wrong churches...
@@j.calvert3361 Does your ignorance hurt you as much as others? I guess you're not sure?

@@bornanagaming3329 What part don't you understand? What are you so confused about?
I had a gig a while back as a production assistant for a mobile recording studio that did a lot of live recordings of black gospel groups performing in churches in and around Durham, NC. Minus the choreography and high jumping, this was a pretty accurate portrayal of the atmosphere. Those churches ROCKED.
Gig?
yeah, it kinda sucks, ... in white churches, .. least the ones on tv, the preacher has to start screaming in the middle of the sermon to wake everybody up.
Whoever Playing That Organ is Killing it, LITERALLY !!
I was in Zimbabwe one day and had a service just like this.. People all over the World love God.. America needs a Revival... Now
Still my favorite movie to this day. Watched it over 1000 times.
You watch it so much we think you'r on a mission from God.
Rookie numbers.
@@NoneofYourBusiness667 😄
If church had this level of energy when I went, I would've never missed a mass 🙌🙌
I was in Ghana for Christmas 20 years ago. There was no tree or gifts exchanged but you spent the day in church rejoicing then gathered for a feast. I met over 200 relatives at that dinner. The love and joy expressed at our visit was extraordinary and the church service was amazing, rejoicing and singing to the lord on the day of his birth. My mother left Ghana in the 50's, it has become the only country so far in Africa that welcomes the descendents of slaves... no visa required. In three years you can become a citizen. Opportunity abounds and I couldn't be prouder.
@@petragames6153 you're on the internet.
have you stayed for 3 years (for citizenship)?
how do you make your living? (just curious)
@@petragames6153 why don't you know you're NOT "Ts s"?
you're weird.
This is one of the best dance scenes in the movie.
The band Elwood the band!
So many stars in this movie. To me, it is still the greatest SNL skit-to-film they've ever made 😃😅
This is absolutely one of the best parts of this film.
All time classic movie....all time classic scene! I have watched the movie a million times. NEVER tire of it.
This movie never gets old!
I wish more Churches had trampolines.
🤣
That won't happen because someone would eventually break a arm or leg
@@jerryupp239 I’ve heard many times that churches are a place of healing ;)
I wish there was no church. Religion is our biggest curse. The churches in the USA are all for worshiping Satan.
Best observation ever lol.
If the good Rev. James Brown don't make you see the light, NOTHING will!
Amén for that
Amen to that, brother!
James Brown was a coke head drug addict that beat women.
That about Sums up the USA lol Satanic Selfish wealth worshipers, stuck in their own egos and religious beliefs.
@@je-freenorman7787 Yeah he used to beat his wife.
Definitely a classic 👌they don't make movies like this anymore, such a shame
Thanks satan, they don't make movies like this anymore
They never made a movie like this before, either. It owes a great debt to what came before, but it's a truly unique experience.
@@Mattwarszawa it’s a piece of “Americana”. Back when the US actually had artists make real original art, instead of just CGI-heavy soulless “remakes” of every actual original property from the 80’s and 90’s.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how Jake's hat doesn't fall off for those summersaults? 🤣
Their Dodge Monaco was what got me into classic cars - love this movie!
Still have the contemporaneous memory of _this_ scene seeing it for the first time in July 1980. Halfway, or so, through the movie a thunderstorm erupted and while rain pelted the roof and the theater shook from thunderclaps The Blues Brothers played on. My wife and I were beginning our summer vacation. After the movie was over we left the cool theater and the blast of heat and humidity outside was a tangible 'thing'.
I’d love to be at this church. So much energy
Amen.
Go to Compton on a Sunday and pick a church..
@@ninjavigilante5311 I mean, I go to those churches that are very…shall I say, we’re very modest about our worship but the Bible says make a joyful noise so I’d love this church

Whenever I watch this film, my cheeks hurt, from smiling for 2 hours straight!
I love the little fellah in the sharp grey suit and the fully coiffered hairdo conducting the choir, doesn't miss a beat, solid performance, doesn't get enough recognition 😆😆😆😆😍😍what a star!
Love it, I would love to go to a church like that. Praise Jesus.
Such a 'meeting' of the talents of the time. The whole damn movie. Definitely a classic.
It is scary how good the music in this movie was.
All of these great artists were at lulls in their careers, when disco was king and people weren't quite as up for people like Aretha, Ray, Cab Calloway, Hooker, and even JB. The producers got them all for a pittance, but it helped revive their careers.
Still one of my favorite John Landis movies of all time. Dan and John together was awesome!
Even Elvis Presley saw the Light and was with the Spirit of God. Rest in Peace The King.
He faked his death and is in his l8 80s actually 😎
I’m only 28 years old and I watch this movie almost everyday my dad introduced me to this movie thank god he did and we dressed as the blues brother one Halloween and I introduced my friends to this movie we all love this movie wish we had more movies just like the blues brothers today
Wayne's World made more money, but this was absolutely the best movie to ever come from the SNL franchise. One of the best movies of all time.
SNL?
@@ivanbombana7282 Saturday Night Live
@@Ducksoup67 Is it a USA TV program?
@@ivanbombana7282 Yes.
I was 16 when this movie came out. Was living my first apartment. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As a child growing up, this was always me and my siblings favorite scene. We 100 percent identified with the music, the choir, the preacher, and the members dancing "in the spirit". Still love this movie after all these years.
James Brown was smooooooth from his perm to his moves!!!!!
Even my Mom, who is very old-fashioned, loves this scene.
BEST. CHURCH. SCENE. EVER.
2:54 I like how the Blues Brothers went from dancing to standing to dancing so quickly.
Makes me Smile ...
That moment when you go to church and find out everyone is a professional dancer.
You mean you didn’t know?
Then, get to church !
It was like that back in da’ day
🕺🏽🎼🕺🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
...with a trampoline!
not at the Protestant white church
Defeating the law of gravity...
@@lunaridge4510 Hehe
The Augusta,GA legends of my hometown Mr. James Brown!
Saw this back in da day on release, and church was like this without the pro dancers.
You danced because you felt the music move you.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🎼🕺🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🕺🏽🎼
What happened in these churches (not sure if it was the goal),
is that your defenses were broken down so “the light” could enter in.
(Like Belushi.)
It’s hard not to internally respond to that incredibly blistering tempo, that call and response , and the hardcore repetition of it all.
It’s mesmerizing!
So simple. Everybody gets it.
The leader says something and the whole room answers back.
Over and over. Same simple lines.
By the time it’s over, you’re not the same as you walked in.
A wonderful gift God gave to those who call upon the name of Christ.
It got us through!
Additionally….
All black music, Jazz and Blues predominantly, comes from this.
I was overwhelmed in the theater when I saw it.
James Brown Chaka Khan …
This scene was bananas !
A classic scene in a classic movie. Scenes like this makes this film one of the best comedies and possibly one of the best movies ever made. They don’t make 'em like this anymore. 👍🏾We’re on a mission from God.
Just some beautiful beautiful dresses. I wish I had one
There was actually a good message in his sermon
The fact that the then unknown Chaka Khan is in this movie too
This is a legendary movie that doesn't get nearly enough notice today
Blues Brothers is one reason why I think I was lucky to have been able to spend better part of my life in the 20th century.
Is it morol or moral and which one is masking humans? Or voting for slavery? or sending in the army?
The most spectacular vision anyone could ever have! My favorite scene in the movie
This movie is a treasure! So much talent, so many legends immortalized here. My favorite scene as well. 🧡💙🖤
"Have you seeeen the light?"
"Yes! Yes! Jesus H. Tap-dancing Christ! I have seeeen THE LIGHT!!!"
I went to a very conservative religious boarding school when I was a kid. We had Church services everyday and three on a Sunday! We were allowed to bring in one VHS movie once a month and everyone had to sit down and watch it. When it was my turn I brought in this movie. It was the clean version (taped off the tv) with all the 'mf's' edited out. Once it started the teacher on duty clearly had a problem with it being appropriate for 8 - 13 year old boys, but couldn't really speak up because the film was about saving an orphanage run by a Nun and was about two men on 'a mission from God'.😂 Some of those kids were so excited by the end car chase that they were screaming and shouting and some were even riding their chairs with excitement as they cheered on Jake and Elwood. There was almost a riot! I like to think I broadened a few minds that day and planted a few seeds. An anti-authority classic. Still my all time favorite movie.
i won a gong show with the blues brothers
explain?@@lordgoro
What light? Lol
You worship a horse
I don't think you could assemble this much musical talent in one Movie today without egos getting in the way. The s Artist were down to Earth people,the King and Queen of Soul in the same Movie. It doesn't get any better.
Not the sexiest thing to point out, but the editing in this scene is incredible.
1:09 I just realized that the choirs soloist is musician Chaka Khan!
This movie is full of Blues, & r n b royalty
Omg. I have watched this movie my entire life and never noticed this!
Same here 🤗
I just realized it!
lol i just noticed it too, only took 40 years
Amen! Blues Brothers, Jake, Areatha, Charles, James, ....❤😯🌞
I’ve loved this movie since I was single digits. The amount of exaggerated scenes like this one keeps me in stitches 😂😂😂😂😂🤸🏾♂️
You feel like you've been to church after watching this.
Best movie of all time.
October 21, 2022.... this is still funny and fun. We all need to laugh at each other. God Bless....
I just sent this to my drummer, who has not graced our band with his skills in some time. But last night we got the band back together for a little bit, and it was almost a religious experience. Thanks, Jeremy, love ya bro!
I’d forgotten how funny this film was going to watch it all the way through-going to introduce my kids to it 😂😂😂
I introduced my kids to it in the 90’s. We all still love it and watch now and again
@@Teapot333watching this right now with my 8 year old boy…and he asked for the movie
This movie is SO PACKED with many hilarious laughs. 😁😆
This .movie is incredible fantastic...hasn,t aged.. never will...
I visited a Black church years ago and it was just like this. I’d never seen anything like it. The people were yelling and jumping hysterically.
Just wait to you see people fall out at church! Which was so funny in this scene, where they carried the man out, hahaha
lmao
2023 and I’m still watching this scene one of my favorite 80s movies and I’m a 90s baby
Still haven't seen a better movie 41 years later
Or heard a better soundtrack.
This is the day that the Lord has Made!! 🙏
ONE of THEE BEST MOVIES of ALL-TIME
I must say I have been in churches where the presence of GOD touch the people. It's one of the most awsome , new, joyful experiences. I have never been the same.
This scene makes me want to go to church
I don’t know, but I feel something very spiritual each and every time I play this... ❤️❤️❤️
I really need a church like this. I would go to church every single sunday 🙂
amen to that brother! I'd have my house painted, the garden done, tea cooked, written my life-story, done the shopping, raised a family, built a business, given all my money away and retired in 20 minutes! hallelujah! 😅🤣
This was so powerful I have seen the light
PRAISE JESUS!!!!!!
Ok this is my church.💖
You would see the light 4 sure.
This scene and the whole Blues Brothers movie just keeps getting better every time I see and hear it!
Ich liebe einfach alles an diesem Film.
I just love this movie. It's so funny and the music is adorable.
That shuffle he does at 3:30 is my favorite part lol
I need more uptempo gospel music in my life! 🙂
I’ve been watching scenes and just had the thought, “Musicals usually suck, but if someone asked me my favorite musical, I would thank God that the Blues Brothers is a musical and that it’s the only right answer”
This scenes everything: When doom 4 was announced, when ff7 remake came out, when that one guy got out of jail etc
Love how they left the cool down in. Didn't cut to next scene. Let the cool down show. Genius.
I ain't religious nor do I have any kind of deconversion story but I do love me some Blues Brothers and this church scene has to be one of the greatest movie scenes in cinematic history. And while I would never fall for any religious dogmas, I can't deny wanting to partake in such a raucous good time. As I understand it, this scene is only just barely an exaggeration?
The joy of the lord is our strength. 🎼💕
Why doesn't this scene appear in the usual generic lists of the greatest movie musical dance sequences in history ! It belongs right up there! In fact the whole Blues Brothers movie should be up there. Dagnamnit! ( pardon my blaspheming....😉😁🤣🤣🤣
I went to a few churches with this exact energy, i loved it
When you realize that that the priest is played by James Brown, the outstanding singer of soul music
Chaka Khan is in the choir.
So much talent in this film. Can't say anything else.
Then you have seen the light .
at 2:32 you can see a technician running from the left to the right aisle at the back of the church right in front of Jake lmao
If the church of my youth was like this, I'd still be going...
