The best are village weddings back there... in Ukraine we had party for 3 days too... Perogies, fish, meat... And SAMOGON (home made vodka, in polish it's same name)! Miamy!
The first time I saw Gogol Bordello live, the opening band was Brazilian. During Gogol‘s set, the opening band came out to jam out on this song, though they played it in more of a samba style, which was super rad.
I went to an Ukranian-American wedding once and it was a blast. There were groups of dancers with complicated choreography competing against each other. They were a joy to watch.
I love this song! My grandparents came from Russia and Ukraine and our family weddings were loud and lively. It never occurred to me that these celebrations were not typical American weddings until I moved to the Midwestern USA for graduate school where I attended my first “American wedding. It was in the basement of a church. They served soft drinks and wedding cake. That was it. I found myself asking the same questions which Eugene asks in this song. “Where’s the vodka, the caviar, the herring, the music and dancing?” Definitely not my idea of a celebration!
I am from the US but of Eastern European decent and I'm actually getting married. With both my mother and soon to be mother-in-law butting heads on how the wedding should be, this song comes to mind.
bendietrees lol Thanks, we got married 3 weeks ago and it turned out great! We had some relatives fly in and we did our cultural dance, played American music, and then had a rave with glowsticks and all. It was a blast and everyone had a great time. I am just glad it is finally over...for now! Until we have kids when their difference in religion being Catholic and Muslim will really come into play!
It sounds like it was a nice blend! I don't envy you when kids come into play....lol. My family is also Eastern European but I was born in America so I hear you.
Have you ever been to American wedding? Where is the vodka, where is marinated herring? Where is the musicians that got the taste? Where's the supply that's gonna last three days? Where's the band that like fanfare? Gonna keep it going 24 hour Instead it's 1 in the morning and DJ's patching up the chords Everybody's full of cake, staring at the floor Proper couples start to mumble that it's time to go People gotta get up early and they gotta go Ah, people gotta get up early and she's got a boyfriend And this whole fucking thing is one huge disappointment And nothing gets these bitches going, not even gypsy kings Nobody talks about my super theory of super everything So be Donald Trump or be an anarchist Make sure that your wedding doesn't end up like this I understand the cultures of a different kind But here word celebration just doesn't come to mind Have you ever been to American wedding?

Funny last wedding I went to was Irish American. No one just sat down Jameson and Jack flowed like tap water. And the couple danced to the Rum Jacks green ginger wine. Every other song was Iggy Pop Gol go bordelo and flogging moly.
You should ask! I'm going to when the day comes. I figure, me being married is such a fucking long shot, that I totally deserve to do it up gypsy style. My neighbors hate me anyway 😅
For those who are confused with mentioning Trump in this song: if you don't know he is one of the most known people in real estate business. No politics here, just comparing two absolutely different things: a real estate mogul and an anarchist... nothing else.
I appreciate the sentiment. I have been to many boring weddings. My wedding party, however, was a 3 day rager on the lake. There was booze flowing, music blaring, people fucking, amazing food, and terrible hangovers. It was epic. One of our friends put on a similar show last year when she got married. All I'm saying is, we aren't all boring.
Woah I'd hate to be an American who had invited Eugene to my wedding before this song came out. Evidently the experience was so awful he decided to write a song about it....
+killpowernotpeople he's writing about how much he enjoyed american weddings and how he wished other cultures followed its example of being massive and crazy.
guess you guys are right i listened to it with your ideas in mind and i admit it makes sense. i had always assumed he was at a ukrainian wedding and was complaining it wasn't like american weddings but i also agree it works as a song about complaining about american weddings.I guess you guys are right.sorry if i came off as a dick before i was just sharing my opinion of what i thought the song was about
u came off as an idiot rather than a dick. the first sentence he sings is 'where is the vodka? where is the marinated herring? Both things present in everyday Russian life and non-existent American culture. America = beer and fastf ood - Russia = vodka potatoes and marinated herring.
I grew up in Russia, married a Ukrainian. We live in Canada, our first North American wedding that we attended was a cultural shock! We were asking the same questions and the word "celebration" just didn't come to mind! In my imagination, I was, just like Eugene, wanting to climb up on a table infront of a bride and groom and bang my fist on the table. If I didn't know that was a wedding celebration, I'd confuse it with a funeral, seriously. The funnest weddings we've been to in Canada, were immigrants' weddings! I do not attended local, traditional weddings after being to a few, just send gifts and congrats.
This music remember me a episode from 90 day fiancée from TLC. In this episode a Russian girl and a mormon guy married, the girl's father asking for alchool
Twenty years ago I saw them live in Baltimore omg omg. Btw Frank Zappa came from Baltimore and there’s a broze bust of him in the middle of a street in Baltimore. Just sayin.
He's got a point about American weddings...we're all stiff and formal. I had more fun at my grandmothers' funeral than at the one and only wedding I've been too, because Nana's funeral had an open bar and a buffet (though it was smoked salmon rather than pickled herring...I took a plate of it home, but it got left under the seat of my Dad's Kia and was not found until it started to smell). All told, though...weddings are supposed to be FESTIVE, and we don't really do them right!
Very well said. Not a lot of people understand that the definitions of normal and abnormal vary based on their predominate culture. Yes, there are variations of counter-culture that only exist to oppose the social norm, and these often give anything "different" a bad image. In this case, it is simply a matter of an ethnocentric attitude towards the unfamiliar.
I am polish and I confirm. We do have 3 days vodka supply and marinated herrings ! Everybody's welcomed !!! Gogol never disappoints
Polish Catholic weddings in America are pretty wild, but nothing like the original. Everyone dances. Everyone drinks. Even grandma.

I'll say it again. African American weddings are amazing. My family is Creole, and I have cousins whose weddings no one remembers (Not even grandma.)

that sounds fucking amazing and very on brand

I think The Ukrainian People Now are my heroes:. What a courageous people who deserve Thanks of the world!

Have you ever been to American wedding?
Where is the vodka, where is marinated herring?
Where is the musicians that got the taste?
Where's the supply that's gonna last three days?
Where's the band that like fanfare? Gonna keep it going 24 hour
Instead it's 1 in the morning and DJ's patching up the chords
Everybody's full of cake, staring at the floor
Proper couples start to mumble that it's time to go
People gotta get up early and they gotta go
Ah, people gotta get up early and she's got a boyfriend
And this whole fucking thing is one huge disappointment
And nothing gets these bitches going, not even gypsy kings
Nobody talks about my super theory of super everything
So be Donald Trump or be an anarchist
Make sure that your wedding doesn't end up like this
I understand the cultures of a different kind
But here word celebration just doesn't come to mind

They're celts sweety!!! Not basic white peoples
I'm playing this song at my Canadian wedding at the end of the night
I wish Gogol Bordello played my wedding
Right, when I think about my future wedding, I look at my friends... Then get sad because they are boring. Lmao.
Right? Maybe she would have stayed......
You can totally hire them.
You should ask! I'm going to when the day comes. I figure, me being married is such a fucking long shot, that I totally deserve to do it up gypsy style. My neighbors hate me anyway 😅
You are a wise man! 😅

Plus, this song is from before tRump was what he is now...
Also because he got married many times
This song is 8 years old..shouldn't be any confusion

Geoel Hose, geiles Video, geiles Lied!
Thanks to Fargo, one of rare moments that I could imagine an unseen singer's face based on his/her voice and style! Perfectly matched.
I’m American but my father’s family hails from Ukraine. I love these guys.
I’m American, one of my friends in college was a Ukrainian student. Dude was BRILLIANT and taught us how to party. RIP Evengy.
Ah, Eugene. Don't ever change. EVER.

Need to play this at my own wedding
GREAT!GREETINGS FROM SERBIA!!!
he looks and acts like a muppet. There should be a muppet made after him. I mean no, he is already like a living breathing muppet. I like him.
Yeah...he resembles Animal the most of all the Muppets!
I want Eugene Hutz to play at my wedding
I want Gogol bordello to sing on my wedding.
Gogol Bordello IS GOLD!!
Thanks Fargo
Fargo? Not in the movie is it?
@@ashleypotter7605 Theres a Fargo anthology TV series
These guys have the most energetic and exciting music videos I´ve seen in a very long time.
i finally discovered gypsy rock, i couldn't take any more listening to gypsy kings and Debora y su banda in gypsy weddings
Gogol Bordello made my wedding awesome!
Fargo does wonders to my playlist.
Yamasuki.
s02e08 drum beat :3
I'm in 0:15 when they produced this music video.
"But sir... this is a funeral."
Офигенно , просто шикарно!!!!!
I love balkan gypsy music like that!
So, so positively energy :)
I just love this band! Amazing

Im Finnish... and there is not much difference between Finnish weddings and funerals. Tho in the funeral is one less drunk
Immigrants blowing all their scambucks on a sham wedding. So awesome.
@@abark Immigrants can't marry for love and earn money? What's a racist xenophobe doing on a Gogol Bordello video?
the best band in entire world!
I agree xD
Thank you, Gogol! Brilliant!
Boy, I feel so lucky I had a Polish wedding :D
OMG these guys are insane. INSANE!!! But absolutely hilarious
I love how music unites people. Great song!
Here from Fargo!
One Love
we are at least 12 now :D
Some of the worst moments of my life have happened during weddings, even my own. It is sensory overload. Good reason to elope.
Feel ya there
Good god...He's spot-on with this depiction of a typical American wedding.Europeans know how to make weddings and, yes, FUNERALS downright enjoyable!
Thanks Fargo, good jam.
Its all about taking time for each other.
I was an extra in that video :-) 15 years ago, almost forgot about It:-) We shot in the middle of the night in Brooklyn. It was wild.
Just heard this on the end credits of, "Fargo."
this is such an awesome song

i'am going to see them live this Friday

The bride at the end put some drag queen make up on!😂👍 Awesome!

I so love this and I thank you!
Punk and Anarchy hello from Poland very nice song :D
Im Polish, at my cousins wedding there were 3 tables completely full of vodka, there were two bottles per each person.
And pickled herring EVERYWHERE!
Polish weddings happen to be those 'American' weddings, too... However, they happen to be truly Slavic ones... a that's where the fun begins :)
Nice, that was a charming video - what a stylish wedding.
Cant get enough of them, I've got tickets for a gig on 8th September in Norwich
so amazing i love gogol bordello for life
superb! love it!
yestarday was a concert in wroclaw, i was there , it was amazing!!!! :-D :-D

If I ever make the mistake of getting married again, this will be the song hubby and I dance to.
Гудзь- великолепен и Борделло-🔥🔥🔥
Where has this band been all my life?
Dusk Kodesh in a gypsy part of town. If you know what I mean:)
AWESOME
That´s another song they have.. Supertheory of supereverything... just give a listen to it man....
If you came to my wedding this year I think we could work something out.
YES.

Nice to watch GB at it's beast. Too bad those days are long gone.
Last wedding I went to was actually a keg party in disguise lol
but I see his point in most "american weddings"
exactly. point well made.
This came on a random song playlist i was listening to and at first i geniually thought it was another rides the bus by weird al
I heard a nice rendition of this in a video called Dji Death fails, it’s a quirky short animation about the grim reaper
damn i forgotten about these guys
24 Hours Wedding Party?
Now that's a Wedding
Would love a higher quality version of this. Love the song, video makes me feel like I need an ophthalmologist.
