    I was so devastated when I was a kid that I heard of his passing. I loved the blues Brothers, 1941 and animal House. Just an amazing talent gone way too soon.

    Scott. You are one of the very few authentic RUclips personalities left. Each of your videos is a real pleasure, a perfect mix of information and entertainment. I hope you never change. Keep on keeping on!

    That was a dark day …. Years later Johns Mom , Agnes Belushi was my dads real estate agent in Chicago.
    Dad had a coffee with her & he told her the stories of us watching John in SNL & the blues brothers. She wrote a thank you note to us . RIP John you were an Authentic , Legit - Musician- Actor- Comedian

    Hi Scott, Hope you're well mate.
    I loved John Belushi, he seemed like a rockstar even though he wasn't.
    I was very sad the way he passed
    Bob de niro and Robin Williams were both with him just hours before his untimely passing.
    It is also ironic how Chris Farley idolized John, yet he passed away the exact same way and at the very same age. RIP John Belushi and Christopher Crosby Farley 🙏🙏.

      I'm a little older, when SNL first came out until the mid 90s it was so good,launched so many careers but today a shell of its former self. We would literally watch the time when we were out on Saturday night to rush home & catch the show!

  • @lenaonmealways4193

    I loved the original Saturday Night Live...I was a teenager then. John was such an excellent multi character actor. We lost such a great talent.

  • @viewericeberg
    @viewericeberg Год назад +10

    Growing up in the 70’s I remember seeing him on SNL. I was a fan of his Blues Brothers music. What put his talent into perspective for me was realizing he was on a wildly popular tv show.Had a very successful album and was in a hit movie almost simultaneously. Guess it’s true,a flame that burns twice as bright last only half as long.

  • @satyadasgumbyji8956

    He was my hero as a kid. He died right before my 11th birthday. I'd read his bios & knew the legendary punk band FEAR was his fave band when he died. I loved them too, being a teen punkster. A lot of people didn't know this before RUclips. I had a chance to see them in late 2000's in a club. I knew "Let's Have A War" would be their last song so I hid in the bathroom by the stage & timed it perfectly. When they walked off stage I walked backstage with them & their crew. I went up to lead singer Lee Ving & gave him a big hug & kiss on the cheek expecting to get totally stomped!😅 Instead he was the coolest mofo you could ever meet & he was surprised I knew about Belushi & him & proceeded to tell me stories over beer. Was a dream come true! Closest I'll ever get to King Belushi! RIP!🙏

    John Belushi, one of the best is all I can say! Loved, loved, loved him and Saturday Night Live too! Such a sad loss for Hollywood and the rest of the world. His death was one of those shockers where you just yell "NOOOOOOO!!" I think he started out at Second City in Chicago. So many greats came out of that place. I think John Candy did too. I absolutely adored John Candy. Another great actor the world lost. I cried when he died. Another "NOOOOO!" moment. Thanks Scott. You're the best Pop Culture channel on RUclips hands down and by far!!

    Another great video, Scott! You always do amazing work. ❤
    How tragic that the drug dealer (Belushi’s killer) heard him breathing funny but didn’t get him any help. I guess she was also too messed up to care. This is a lesson to people not to use drugs and to be extremely careful who they choose to hang out with.

  • @THEBLIZZARDSIX
    @THEBLIZZARDSIX Год назад +7

    You are right, if John Candy and John Belushi were still alive I think they both would have won Oscars by now and there is one more I think who would have won an Oscar if he was still alive and that is Phil Hartman. Thanks for the great story and video.

    Scott this vlog and your kurt cobain vlogs really hit home with me cause I'm a recovering heroin addict and I know how strong the grip of addiction is. Thank God I'm sober now but it was hell. It's really a shame how so many people give their lives for their addiction. Love your channel scott and thank you so much and have a great day.

    Saw the Blues brothers live in Frisco at Winterland, New Year's eve 1978,79....they opened for the Grateful dead, and let me tell you Belushi and Aykroyd had the tightest band I've ever seen....Belushi was a force of nature!

  • @nickyinflorida
    @nickyinflorida Год назад +3

    Even though he was only here a short time, John Belushi left such an impact through his brand of physical comedy & over-the-top characters that had inspired so many others, like Chris Farley. There was a book, Wired by Bob Woodward, that was published after John Belushi’s death that examined his life and death. Like so many other comedians, those who bring us so much laughter, they are usually the saddest. The footage of the Chateau Marmont was great. What an amazing piece of old Hollywood that still remains. As always Scott, I appreciate you. Take care.

    I was completely heartbroken. Animal House and the Blues Brothers are still my favorites. Blushing and Akroyd were a genius team! You do your videos with amazing respect.

    John Belushi was so talented, what a tragic end to his life, taken too soon. You can't help wondering, if only he hadn't been hanging around with bad company. Chateau Marmont really looks like a cool old Hollywood spot, I hope to see it some day. Amazing stories that you mentioned, I'm a James Dean fan and I had heard he met Natalie Wood there. Great job Scott!

  • @chrisgore7737
    @chrisgore7737 Год назад +1

    Loved him. Pity about his drug habits. Hate drugs. Always have done. Being in the Grenadier Guards and special forces for many years saved me from possibly taking drugs. We can never truly accuse people of being a druggy and stereotype them as we don't know anything really about why they become addicted to drugs but one thing is for definite and that is he was a truly great actor and put his negative segments of his life aside and we should love him for all the positives and beautiful movies he gave us to enjoy. Rest in peace buddy. We still love you. And now you are clean and free. Scott. You are great too buddy. Thankyou so much for this vid. Love to you too bud. UK.

  • @limlianhui9462
    @limlianhui9462 Год назад +1

    Loved the Blues Brothers-laughed so hard! He definitely would’ve won Oscars had he not lived the fast life. I always thought he was much older when he passed away, to me he looked at least 45 in most of his later works, but that could be from the lifestyle he was living in Hollywood at that time. RIP John Belushi, gone well before his time 😢
