Hello everyone, I'm Brazilian, I live in South America. With all due respect to American country music, in my humble opinion this is the best version of this song. I believe this show will cross generations and will always have new fans. It's special, it's an icon that will last forever.
2023 and it's still my favorite song from it. if nothing else to be able to watch some of the greatest music talent in both movies who are no longer with us and to remember how great they are.
The way he says "Riders" I hope John Belushi and Carrie Fisher are looking upon this with a smile ❤ I feel this song is a fitting tribute to them both even though Carrie passed after this film was made
One of the most recognizable songs ever written. Never fails to send chills down my spine and loved by almost everyone. So many renditions have been done and the graphics in this one, I believe, is what we almost all envision in our minds when we hear it. Good job guys!
I'd like the fact the the announcer said that they Elwood and Mac were driving through the ring of fire, since Johnny Cash sang "The Ring of Fire" and "Ghost Riders in the Sky." Nailed it. 😂😂
This was the first Blues Brothers movie I ever watched. I played the N64 game for it before even seeing the movie and I'm so glad I got to see it. So many good songs in this movie that I had to look up the originals. This was the first song I ever learned by heart because it's so dang catchy!!!
Man, you got to watch the whole movie again, and again, and again cuz you can't just get over it.. too many wonderful songs. I got my DVD player and the dvd disc still running clean 20 years later.
Loved this when I saw it as a kid. Think it the stand out piece in the film and what made it worth watching . Though I do like the one when the dude sees the light in the church
These films are so underrated, I LOVE them both. I know their a bit silly but I love them! The music is awesome and the films are some of my favourite comedies everQ
An old cow polk went ridin' out one dark and windy day Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw A plowin' through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw Yippee-I-Yay Yippee-I-Yo The Ghost Herd in the Sky Their brands were still on fire and their hoofs were made of steel Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky For he saw the riders comin' hard and he heard their mournful cry Yippee-I-Yay Yippee-I-Yo Ghost Riders in the Sky Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred , their shirts all soaked with sweat Their rindin' hard to catch that herd but they ain't caught 'em yet Cause they got to ride forever in that range up in the sky On horses snortin' fire... as they ride on hear their cry Yippee-I-Yay Yippee-I-Yo Ghost Riders in the Sky As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name If you want to save your soul from hell aridin' on our range then cowboy, change your ways today or with us you will ride atryin' to catch the devil's herd across the endless sky' Yippee-I-Yay (Yippee-I-Yay) Yippee-I-Yo (Yippee-I-Yo) Ghost Riders in the Sky
I have a metal band (currently on hiatus). I saw this movie, and got the idea of doing a heavy metal cover of Ghost Riders in the SKy. I told the rest of the band the lead guitarist immediately agreed, while everyone else (six piece metal band) looked at us funny. Until the drummer said, (accurately, apparently) "Those three haven't seen BLues Brothers."
The Blues Brothers Band sure made a storm performing this song, which saved Elwood from getting shot thanks to the lightning bolt that hit the sniper as he was about to shoot Elwood.
It pains me that it took more than 20 years to have a high quality rip of this on the internet. My favorite part of all of this is Elwood RC controlling the car. (Me, a 22 year old who watched this movie as a kid and has not changed his opinion) Also as someone who has gone to college to work on cars, the most unrealistic part of this is that the doors spring open when he hits a button on his RC remote.
Clever of Elwood to rig the Bluesmobile with a remote control device just so it could drive itself over to the stage and pick them up. I wonder when Elwood had that installed in the Bluesmobile?
Eu assisti a 1* versão dos BLUES BROTHERS, OS IRMÃOS CARA DE PAU. Muito louco o filme. Final de década de 70 e começo dos anos 80. Recomendo. Engraçado pra caramba. Tem na Net. Ou claro tv.
when buster starts playing that harmonica elwood's looking at him with annoyance thinking what the hell's the kid doing? but then just smiles and thinks ah fuck it the kids's got talent
O Brother Where Art Thou came out 2 years after this movie, I wonder if the hats and beards worn by the Soggy Bottom Boys were a tip of the hat (and a pull of the fake beard) to this scene.
This scene is not from "Blues Brothers" (John Landis, 1980), but from "Blues Brothers 2000" (John Landis, 1998), the sequel still starring Dan Akroyd, but where John Belushi (dead)) was replaced on screen by John Goodman. The title is wrong. Even if both are excellent movies !
I wondered about that. I saw the original in the theater but I haven't ever seen 2000 version. John Goodman did a good job. Funny I saw the Blue Bros on SNL....
This was a tribute to Jake who died. He was leading the ghosts riders to the blues mobile and the other ghost didnt like the fact it was painted so they made it rain to wash the paint away a Jake drove the car to the stage to help his brother Elwood escaped. Just a thought
Many decades ago, who would have thought that this song will going to be a theme of one of the most iconic and terrifying anti-hero of Marvel universe. Then at 3:12 Carter Slade appear in the horizon, whilst riding in these endless dark skies.
Funny thing is these guys are a legendary session band, and the key to session work is being adaptable. If these guys can fake their way through a country setlist at Bob's Country Bunker, I'm sure they can fake their way through a bluegrass setlist at a Kentucky state fair.
