36. Up There | South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut Soundtrack (OFFICIAL) 

No joke man the music in the South Park movie made me cry. I guess I'm just an emotional guy but I think it's mostly testament to how genius Trey Parker, and Matt Stone are.

The song is not the joke, but the fact it is sung by Satan who is dating Saddam Hussein. That's... Brilliant?

@@crs2385 South Park will always be the bird...Comforting, wicked, witty but always so raw and sincere.

I think the proper term is an "I Want" song. This song rules and I ain't trying to take anything away from it, but it owes more than a few shades of Part Of Your World.

Emotional? bruh, I was literally rolling with laughter when I first heard this. 😂

He was killed off by man bear pig unfortunately

@@JohnSmithsu2006 I know, which is why I would love to see him come back.

@@alexwells6091 same, I would also like to see mr hankey again and more officer Barbrady

@@JohnSmithsu2006 well where's he going to go? Detroit?

@@emusaurus touche

That is why he was thrown down into the hellfire.

Best part of the song

Likewise

It's the hand and head movement he does with it too 🤣

@@Joe-fy5dz omg you are right LMAOOO 🤣🤣

The devil is a far more interesting literary character than boring JC.

Only South Park could make you feel sorry for Lucifer.

@@josephmarrison4606 exactly this LOLL.

fr!

Yes, all your points are checked. Considering the film, this song is legendary

What about mountain town

@@arturoespinoza09 Mountain Town has one, As it's in the name of the movie Stan asks a ticket for- Though if you don't count that, It also has no swears.

@@arturoespinoza09 also if you count Hell

@@siyacer And (this applies to the soundtrack version) Mrs. McCormick says, "Damn it!" when it is *she* who wakes Kenny... and, although this is muffled in both versions (naturally), Kenny says, "Kickass!" And "redneck" is pretty derogatory.

Stolen comment.

It’s supposed to be Satan singing

@@AverageTPOTfan And Satan is an angel. Specifically, a fallen angel.

@@Bauglir100 mhm, forgot to mention that part, thanks!

The voice of a fallen ANGEL

A fallen angel haha

OMG LMAOOOOOOOOO

He is a Disney Princess

​@@Defenselessdamselindistress69 you mean a Disney prince

Nah man, he's a princess

Are male heroes like the Beast, Aladdin, Simba, Quasimodo, and Hercules count as princesses? 🤣

I hadn't considered it, but I think you may be right. I would've nominated this over Blame Canada as well, though was awesome seeing Robin Williams sing that.

I just noticed the joke

Indeed!

im the 100th like

I believe it

Exactly, just like other beautifully sad songs like You'll Be in My Heart (Tarzan) and When She Loves Me (Toy Story 2)

That’s kinda like South Park in a nutshell!

The only song without a swear.

@@thelibyanplzcomeback mountain town.

@@Lydgid Mountain Town has hell, kickass, and other swears.

@@thelibyanplzcomeback Proof and I wouldn't call hell a swear. Kickass is hardly a swear too. Shut up little maggot.

@@thelibyanplzcomeback Quit whining little maggot. You clearly did. If the goldfish in your brain try hard enough, you might be able to read that.

satan isn't the villain. suddam and sheila (along with the rest of MAC but mostly sheila) are. making "blame canada" and "i can change" the villain songs

...holy shit this IS the villain song.

Facts

"I can go the distance" Hercules.

Saddam Hussein or Kyle’s mom didn’t sing this

Satan was just misunderstood.

@@JohnSmithsu2006 Yup. He isn't malevolent or wicked. He was just a rebellious teenager with an intensely strict old man!

unholy*

It's the foundation bass is a rhythm instrument and it tucks right in that pocket baby!!!

they have been trying to make us feel bad for Satan since the creation of paradise lost. it worked.

​​​@@megamike15John Milton's Paradise Lost is essentially the first work to use Satan/Devil/Lucifer and reveal his character, showing him from a different side, while still retaining his concept. And since then there are already many different images of the devil in literature, media and pop culture. And as a real Hellish villain ( The Omen 1979, Legend 1985, Prophecy 1995, Supernatural 2005-2020, Doctor Who 2005 - 2023, End of the days 1999, Superbook, Dante's Divine Comedy, Sleepy Hollow 2013-2017, Prince of Darkness 1987, The Night Chronicles: Devil 2010 and Terrortoons 2000) and as a comical anti-hero and gentlemanly neutral, and tragic tragic characters (South Park, Cow and Chicken, Darkwing Duck, Cuphead, Futurama, Family guy, Simpsons, American Dad, Suspicious owl, Neil gaiman's Lucifer and Sandman comic book series, Constantine, The Master and Margaritha, Paradise lost and Paradise Regained, Devilman anime and manga) and positive heroic character (Lucifer tv series and the Hazbin Hotel). It's the same with God. As a heroic character (Prince of Egypt 1998, Joseph :King of Dreams 2000, Noah's ark 2007, Lucifer tv series, South Park, Bruce Almighty 2003 and Evan the Almighty 2007, and Superbook), as a villain (Supernatural, Devilman, Legion, Onepunchman and Brittle bones Nicky) and as neutral character (Simpsons, Family guy and Suspicious owl).

1:25 even more so

Do you know what it is called musically? I must know it's my new favorite thing

dude kickass joke

And what I really love in this version of Satan, that's because if you remember that he was an angel and the same son of God as his half-brother Jesus Christ. God placed his hopes in him and obviously wanted to make him what JC would later become. But he let him down, in his own desires, pride and malice, he stepped on the dark path, and now after more than a thousand years, he repents and wants to return home to Heaven, But he can't, and that's what he suffers the most, and he gets the impression that if he can't get everything he sings about in this song then no one can, and if he can't get out of the path that he once stepped on, then he will lead people astray so that they also take the dark path and sin, and then fall to him, so that he can torture them and take out everything that has accumulated during his entire existence and being in Hell. We can even say that he accepts himself and his situation as it all is, as you can understand from the phrase from his song "Without evil there could be no good, so it must be good to be evil sometimes" that here he considers himself evil, he admits that he is evil and is not ashamed of it. He is no stranger to goodness, no, he just forgot and really does not really know what it is and how to get and feel it. He wants true friendship, he wants true love and a normal place to exist, but as he believes after all, there is no better or other way In order to get everything that he wants and everything he dreams of, it is actually to take it all away from those who live above him, and He is even more malicious because they enjoy life while he sits in the fiery abyss. And he hates Christ, because he sees in him what he could have been if he had not become proud and wanted to be like his father, and for this he would not have staged a rebellion, would not have started a war in heaven, and most importantly, would not have corrupted the first people out of resentment against him. And he believed that the destruction of the Lord's new favorites would satisfy him and bring him closer to the dream of a better life. But God forgave him a long time ago, knew and believed that sooner or later he would be able to change, become the same and return to him, which he did, at first he simply established a relationship with the Father, and then when he saved the main characters from ManBearPig, that is, consider that he overcame his Pride, the sin that in fact led him to the fall, he didn't stand aside and just look from afar, and he made up his mind, and defended them, he learned to love truly, if he had not loved and not made friends with boys, then it is unlikely that he would have begun to save them, and they were unlikely to be able to show him the right path, and in fact, sacrificing his own life, he finally became what he once was, the same great angel of God, who brings light and dreams, and who has made his own dream come true, to live UP THERE.

@@MarkMark-lx6gl Oh yes definitely.

No it has a right

@@BubbleyGorl exactly, I was thinking the same thing too 🤣

Singing in falsetto is in particularly difficult.
