I am 79 yrs old and still am ,Was born to be wild. I still have a T shirt that says " Wild Thing" on it just played that song too. So delighted you still are playing those oldies but goodies THANK- YOU YOU JUST MADE MY DAY, MY MONTH AND MY YEAR
Dirtbikeizlife ----- Hmmmm you sound like a 14 teen old. Why are you so doubtful about 80 yr olds liking music from when they were younger. I am a young at heart almost 80 yrs old. I learned how to use the PC 20 yrs ago and received my first I pad 3 yrs ago from one of my 6 daughters. We had real music back when. So many songs these days are just noise to me. I just bought a black Tee shirt with a gold head Wolfe on front that reads " Don't throw me to the wolves, They Come When I Call" Live and let live ! Be positive and kind. Enjoy your lifestyle and I will mine. Meet you on the wild side of life. 😎 positive
Back in the 1970-1990s, I was the front man for our band the Rumblebugs (NE Kansas, south and west too). We played this song nearly every Gig. But!! 20 some years since playing it, I forgot how it goes, and so, I came here to refresh my memory on the chord progression LOL. I now have the song re-learned after about 8 minutes. The disappointment is that the key of E is too high for me now! I need to sing it in D or Eb, and the way the song relies on that heavy power chord E, well something will need to change. I might be able to pull off Eb and tune the guitar to a step below standard. It sucks getting old. In the past, I have played this song in many a Dive Bar, stoned, sober and drunk (but not all at the same time). We were a legend in our own minds. Freedy Johnston played drums for us 1987-88. Through out the 80s, Shaw Wilson played drums for us too, and he went on to play drums for BR549. We were just a small dance band. There were several band names for the Jim Lee Band; The Spiders, The Rumblebugs, The Soul-jers, Good Question, Scuzbucket, and the Tonganoxie Red Water Band.
Grzechu the first time I herd this song was on a ford truck commercial back in 2008 and I've been trying to find it ever since. Now i've finally found it.
Anvesh rao Oh, and because your internet name is real and mine isn't, I take it that makes you so much better than me, doesn't it? I'm just a stupid troll with now life and an identity crisis, no? You must be so enlightened and mature because you don't bother around with such silly things as using a fake name online! If there's anything I can't stand, it's a snob. A self-centered, spoiled snob.
One of the best bands ever. No other band could have played such important themes that were even taken to movies. Good for them. Not any other band will take your place. I wonder are the still alive?
I never heard this version of "Born to be Wild." I like the playing of the drums and, of course, the guitar riffs. This song is pure, classic rock n' roll. It can't get any better than this.
I feel U dude!!!! My name is Harley!!!! I was NaMed after my Dad's Motorcycle!!!! He had a black Harley Davidson Sportster the year B4 I was born!!!! & he decided 2 NaMe me Harley!!!!
This is a very well done COVER by JEFF SCOTT SOTO, The Album is called "JSS - Cover songs" I think this should be mentioned in the description if not in the title
@@billygoatsgruff8068 Yea, def not live. I thought for a second it might be a live rendition only because the voice is different, this is clearly a cover, the instrumentals are good
Steppenwolf were from originally a band called the Sparrow in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. According to founder and lead singer John Kay they are actually Canadians who invited 2 Americans in Hollywood to join their new band Steppenwolf. John said "We got it together in a rehearsal space on Fountain Ave" in Hollywood California and the rest is history. Well Having seen them at Universal Amphitheatre in Studio City in the 1990's I can say they can really play ! The electronic equipment failed so John apologized and so they played all their classic stuff. It was incredible.
+Cobalt Falcon Nah logo would fit more thrash metal from the 80's in fact correct me if I'm wrong but I believe he has I chip in his head that always blast metal music so he can't have his mind read
Cus black lives matter i miss the old white american muscle culture , now everything is trap rap or some shit with weird beats 60 to 80s we were born in the wrong time too late to go to nam or iraq but to early to explore espace and the mars wars
@@stealthsnakes-2268 thats no make sense, cause I'm a black Brazilian man 25 years old and I ever listen old rock haha I dont like new songs of new age. I Like acdc, Creedence, Steppenwolf, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Kansas... I guess everything in this world change everyday, But we have a good taste.
Heard this in a lot of places but the BEST has to be Supernatural where this song was used as the good guys crashed their car into the bad guy's hideout to take him out and save the world. BEST scene with that car (and there's A LOT of good ones)and a great song, both for the scene and in general.
One reason this girl rocks is because this song rocks and it is so inspiring to me. I've been covering this song in various bands that I played bass in for about 30 years and it always was a huge hit with our audiences before I went solo. This song is still in my repertoire today as a musician who now playing lead guitar. And that is because I never get tired of playing it because it's such a fun song to play and sing. :)
Meus pais são separados desde meus 3 anos de idade. Minha mãe diz que meu pai ouvia muito rock internacional, e essa era uma das suas favoritas, desde meus 4 anos eu vim pro PR enquanto meu pai ainda mora desde então em Sorocaba. Recentemente recebi um vídeo dele cantando essa música num bar de música ao vivo. Ele cantava essa música (e muito bem), sempre mantemos contato por mensagens, vídeo chamadas e ligações, então da forma que dá ele é presente. Antes mesmo de eu saber que meu ai gostava de rock eu já gostava, e tenho orgulho de dizer que ouço Rihanna desde que estava no útero de minha mãe kkkkkk hoje tenho 14 anos, e meu ótimo gosto musical é herança, não é possível kkkkkk

A favorite song on Armed Forces Radio in VN when I was there in 68
The way he says born to be wild is just simply the best sounding part of the song
I had a toy electronic motorcycle that played this song
Nice
@@alexandreantille8067 yeah I wish I still have the toy motorcycle
When you kill your Frist person...
@@wessutton5263 what is the name of the Toy or the production house...
Yup Canadian band. Love this song. I close my eyes and see Peter and Denis zooming down the road! ♥
yeah awesome movie
An American band
My mistake- I just found out the original two were Canadian. John Kay was origianlly from East Germany
I love listening to this not knowing where I'm going. Just riding. Wind on my face and in the night it's amazing. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
One of the best rock songs ever till this day!!!!
Cue Dean Winchester opening the car door of his 1967 Chevy Impala, with dark shades on XD
In the top ten list of 60's songs. This song will pass the test of the ages.
I don't listen to steppenwolf often but when I do so do my neighbors !
You have the Best post.👍😀👍
I've always loved this song. ❤ it made me feel like throwing cares to the wind and live life full tilt

Fantastic song and it is haunting and evergreen. I first listened to this lovely song during my school days.
The first use of the term "Heavy Metal" although in this song it probably refers to a Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
you must be a old timer...
MarioConsi68 oh no for being old... all that experience and everything :O
Arguably, also the very first heavy metal song. I agree, as it has that focus on machine-like riffs, lyrical themes and song structures.
Heavy metal thunder
You r spook right my motorcycle bro! This adds a good meaning to
Heavy metal and whaaats up out there from two pop,baby bull dog
Probably the most Iconic rock song ever!
This song makes me feel like ding dong ditching, prank calling, skipping school, hunting moose out of season, and watching free movies online!
I do 4 of those 5 almost all the time. One time I got myself outta school for a week and a half!
if you're listening to this in 2021 you're a legend
I think this song is more American than the USA anthem.
Steppenwolf the book was written by a German (Hermann Hesse).
Grzechu the first time I herd this song was on a ford truck commercial back in 2008 and I've been trying to find it ever since. Now i've finally found it.
Rudi K And his canadian band.
I always thought of it as the Biker's anthem.
LOL Steppenwolf is actually a Canadian band. They originated in Toronto in 1961. John Kay is Canadian. So much for being so American eh?
This song represents a lifestyle
i want this to be played at my funeral. :)
Robin Gee then you'll pop out of the ground singing along!
Robin Gee it was played at my uncles funeral
Ah I never will get a funeral i will honor my anchestors and Impress my gods to Come to valhalla
Your tombstone will read “Died from being too wild”
Robin Gee m2 bro
My Dad was originally going to name me Steppenwolf...
That would have been the single best first name ever thought up for a kid.
Myrtilys Bloodfeast Warhammer is pretty good too.
Well , "Tekrothebountyhunter" isint a good name either
Anvesh rao And "Anvesh rao" must be so much better...
Anvesh rao Oh, and because your internet name is real and mine isn't, I take it that makes you so much better than me, doesn't it? I'm just a stupid troll with now life and an identity crisis, no?

A TIMELESS PIECE OF A GENERATION GONE BY!

One of the best bands ever. No other band could have played such important themes that were even taken to movies. Good for them. Not any other band will take your place. I wonder are the still alive?
Steppenwolf was never labeled as a GREAT band but their music will live forever. It’s a statement of REBELLION
It's OK. Anyone into rock knows are great.
A classic and awesome song ! Very Very Good ! Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷
I never heard this version of "Born to be Wild." I like the playing of the drums and, of course, the guitar riffs. This song is pure, classic rock n' roll. It can't get any better than this.

This has been one of my favourite songs since I was about 3 years old, my father made sure I was listening to the right stuff :D
The boys down in Nam' were playing this slot, I was in my JU87 during Nam' helping the USA out with German forces
*CONFUSED SCREAMING
Love this song and this song brings me back to when I was a little kid in the early 2000s. Can't believe I am 19!!
A wake up song everyday for me. Just love it😍
💋💋💋💋💋
Seriously awesome and badass I love this awesome song
One and only singers like this 😍👏🏼💙
I remember 1969 what's a beautiful year thank for singing that song it's encouraged speed now
This is a very well done COVER by JEFF SCOTT SOTO, The Album is called "JSS - Cover songs" I think this should be mentioned in the description if not in the title
This is actually a live performance by Steppenwolf
I knew this didn't sound like John Kay singing. I'm glad you confirm my suspicion that this is not Steppenwolf just their song.
@@ericolsen5592 nope
And it's clearly not live.
@@billygoatsgruff8068 Yea, def not live. I thought for a second it might be a live rendition only because the voice is different, this is clearly a cover, the instrumentals are good

I play this song while playing The Crew and I had a 1957 Cadillac Elderado Perf car, I love this song.😃
Cant wait to see Steppenwolf take on the Justice League!!!
***** I see Lobo as a 90's metal kind of guy. Mike Patton with Faith No More, Alice in Chains, Metallica (from the Black Album). That's me
+Cobalt Falcon Nah logo would fit more thrash metal from the 80's in fact correct me if I'm wrong but I believe he has I chip in his head that always blast metal music so he can't have his mind read
Erick Esquivel 80's thrash also works. And yes, the chip thing is true. It only plays one song, too.
+Cobalt Falcon Yeah if they do the Lobo movie it better have a killer metal soundtrack
Erick Esquivel It would be surprising if it didnt. You cant do much wrong with 80's/90's metal. The proper bands, that is
Why does rock like this not exist anymore?!?
Because no one but us listens to it. It's the music business not have fun
You heard it 10 years ago, What do you Think About come back ?! hahaha
Kin to Connie C.?
