Alan Lomax toured the country back in the late 60's recording folk singers, sometimes in a school house, sometimes around the kitchen table and sometimes literally out in the field. He recorded Mattie Gardner, Mary Gardner and Jessie Pratcher singing this song acapella. I grew up listening to this song as a kid and always loved it. Moby did a great job taking the original recording of these ladies and adding the musical instruments to it. Thanks for sharing this video. Brings back lots of memories!
Consequently, the name of the album with this song on it is called, "American Folk Songs for Children". It has another song on it called, "Soldier, Soldier" which was featured in the Kevin Costner movie "Dances with Wolves" when Kevin Costner was swimming in that pond at "the soldier fort".
I laugh sometimes all of these award winning movies that look down on movies like this .... I hate to tell them , but I repeatedly come back to movies like this... a great movie with heart and soul and means well. Fun as heck and never gets old.
its 2014 and this song just popped in my head all these years after one of my first favorite early films.I seriously enjoyed. Old memories. "PURE ENERGY BUILDER"
Did anyone else watch this movie, like 100 times during their childhood? Okay maybe not exactly 100 times, but this movie came out when I was 10 and I think this movie is what made me love Jerry Bruckheimer films and possibly Mustangs.
one of the most epic songs used in a movie... incredibly powerful... specially the outro 2:48 on.... the addition of the strings just sets the whole thing off!
Heard this song on a radio long time ago before iphones and shazaam were available. Apparently I had never seen the first coulple minutes of Gone in 60 either. Thank you AMC.
Just FYI, some of you are a bit off on the correct lyrics to this song "Flower" by Moby. After doing some careful research, the ACTUAL lyrics used in "Flower" are sampled from an old African American children's song called "Green Sally Up," which shares similarities with the British children's song, "Ring Around The Rosie." The actual lyrics being sung in the "Flower" sample are : "Green Sally up, Green Sally down... Last one squat gotta tear the ground." It is correct to assume that this song is rooted historically in the slave culture of the American South, but it was more a song to entertain and occupy the children out in the fields than it was a commentary on slavery. Like "Ring Around The Rosie," "Green Sally Up" has an accompanying game that's played in time and accordance with the lyrics. 'Green Sally' means 'little girl,' hence the first two lines direct the children to rise up and then squat down in rhythm with the song. The lines "Last one squat gotta tear the ground" means, quite plainly, that the last child to squat has to help the adults with the cotton picking. It's assumed that this was not a literal rule of the game, but a threat of the "last one home is a rotten egg" variety. The lines sung vocally, "Old Miss Lucy's dead and gone, left me here to weep and moan" is indeed a reference to the death of a slave 'owner'. Now you know.
It seems that Moby does background music for many movies that I like. Or, I guess the directors ask him if they can use his amazing art. Way to go, Moby! Love it. :)
I absolutely adore this music! It's the excellent soundtrack when you're working on your old car, doing an oil change or checking the transmission :) Never knew Moby mixed this kind of music.
As soon as this song came on in the opening credits i knew that movie was gonnabe da shiznit. Cant listen to it on the freeway tho.... Getting pulled over 😅😅😅😅
Teri maa ka Bhosada mustang??? Nooooo the car he uses is a 1967 Shelby gt500 man :) but good idea though I’m sure your son will love that! I used to watch this growing up wishing I’d own the same car lol
Sway: What do you think is more exciting... having sex or stealing cars? Memphis: Having sex or boosting cars... Um, oo! Well, uh... How about having sex WHILE boosting cars?
Watched this movie with Robert and Sasha around January February 2001 while having the repo gig spotting vehicles for tow in Phoenix Arizona, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa
the actual lyrics are: Bring Sally up and bring Sally down Lift and squat, gotta tear the ground Old miss Lucy's dead and gone Left me here to weep and moan
Can you explain how you time the push ups? Like when it says bring sally up you go up and when it goes down you go down? Because I guess the push ups you do are really good and I want to try them!
Dark Knight 22 With a 55 year old Nicholas Cage coming out of retirement, yet again! And a "not so hot anymore" Angelina Jolie now working 4 jobs to support her and her 7 kids. With a 40 year old Gilligan now running the show. You remember Gilligan, right? He could order pizzas like nobody's business!
Na it's too late for a sequel but maybe a prequel were we can see a young Randall Memphis Reigns learning his craft along with the rest of the crew minus Kip's crew that would be cool too 😎

The best intro in history of hollywood films
Agreed.

Pancake Spy , I logged in just to agree with you. :) It would be amazing! Cheers!

A great movie indeed. What grabbed me wasn't so much the action, but the teamwork and the individuals involved...especially Sphinx.
2024 and this song still slaps.
Still one of my favorite original sound track. still

This is a great movie!!! And the soundtrack is da bomb 💣
And it’s hard to believe that it’s 20+ years old
Such a simple song, yet it just pulls you in
love it
my coach use to play this while we worked out, we would be so pumped . good memories

Unforgettable intro song to a bad ass movie!
Nothing like doing 90mph on an open interstate with the top down at midnight on a warm night and this song blasting. Perfect.

Funny thing is they just put the Vapid (Eleanor) Ellie into the game 😎
Maybe it will be on the Switch

Every time I think of this movie, a rush of adrenalin comes through my veins.
No better song to drive to than this blasting from your speakers! You just wanna ride to it!!

I disagree, and by your comment you obviously don't know much about the Fast & Furious movies.

This song is so awesome.
Don't stop, on the loop kind of number.. extreme love
i love this song! and love the film!

Super kawałek zajebiaszcza nuta i świetnie nastawia samopoczucie :)

Actual Fast and Furious? Yes
Can you explain how you time the push ups? Like when it says bring sally up you go up and when it goes down you go down? Because I guess the push ups you do are really good and I want to try them!
Még mindig nagyon komoly :) Thumbs up ! ^^
I always love this song first heard it on gone in 60 seconds.
This song is supposed to prepare you for the adrenaline this movie gives you.... Mission Accomplished💯
This movie need's a sequel 😊
Dark Knight 22
With a 55 year old Nicholas Cage coming out of retirement, yet again! And a "not so hot anymore" Angelina Jolie now working 4 jobs to support her and her 7 kids.

i cant understand to this date why it was received negatively especially by critics
Dark Knight 22 good idea
They generally screw sequels but if someone talented agreed to come on board..
Na it's too late for a sequel but maybe a prequel were we can see a young Randall Memphis Reigns learning his craft along with the rest of the crew minus Kip's crew that would be cool too 😎
Great Tune...thanks for posting
Thanks so much for posting! I've been looking for this but couldn't recall the artist and song title. Domo:-D
