I remember the first time I watched this. I was 14 years old and my dad had put it on. I really loved the film and this scene was the best. Then I watched Holy Grail and decided... Monty Python is the king of comedy.
As I'm getting closer to the "primrose path to everlasting bonfire", this song makes me so cheerful, so I think it should be played at my funeral wherever that will be !!!!
If Eric Idle can be remembered for one thing, it should be for writing and singing this extraordinary song. It is utterly hilarious and brings perfect closure to "Life Of Brian."
@@vladomne672 do you mean that music was and still is being played or that he still bears the name of brian?...if your answer is the one where the music is still being played at his funeral that would mean that the funeral is still being held...so that would mean that his body has been above ground in a coffin for a minimum of two years and that they are still in the process of putting him to rest...but if your answer is the one about his name still being brian that would be a lot less fugged of an answer
Sorry George..Nathan is my cousin...he doesnt actually think about what hes saying.Theres no per verbial filter.Ill put it this way...he was the kid in school who would blow bubbles through his milk straw,and then choke on the bubbles :( hes my special boy!!!
During the Falkland Islands War, when the destroyers HMS Sheffield and HMS Coventry were sunk by Exocet missiles, the crewmembers who made it into the water sang this song while they waited for rescue.
that comment was 7 years ago, he's probably dead. but you are correct, there are no funny brits left. PC made them extinct. jokes are illegal in the UK now.
I was sick at home this Easter and I saw this movie on Bravo. I haven't laughed so hard in years. I don't care if it's blasphemous, I feel so much better after seeing this movie. Laughter really is a home remedy! Thank you Monty Python ahha!
During the lock down the Thames was deserted and a working boat went under Blackfriars bridge the crew were playing this song. it really gave us hope in a time of uncertainty.
@RockManLP_Radio yep. Not to mention this movie almost did not get made ‘back when humans could still laugh at each other’. No studio would fund it, and it ultimately only got made because several musicians came forward to provide personal funding. And after its release it got banned from countless cinemas. OP doesnt know what he is talking about.
I posted this on fb a few years ago and someone got butt hurt and flagged it as offensive. Got banned for 48 hours! Somehow that made the clip even funnier to me. Lol
a year ago on the day my boyfriend broke up with me, I was watching this film afterwards. It made my previous crying into laughter at that moment. this song really perks you up despite the shit life throws at you.
I swear, if big mouth is gonna come to an end at the eighth season, they should parody this song as epitomizes what life is all about while looking back at what happened.
Such a great satire. Always cheers me up. Wish this song would be played on my funeral (ofcourse if it will be held) and not to make people remember my life, but to hear this song and think about their's life. Anyway, I say people can do with my dead body whatever they want (even if that means playing football with my head).
lways Look On The Bright Side Of Life Monty Python Some things in life are bad They can really make you mad Other things just make you swear and curse When you're chewing on life's gristle Don't grumble, give a whistle And this'll help things turn out for the best And Always look on the bright side Of life Always look on the light side Of life If life seems jolly rotten There's something you've forgotten And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing When you're feeling in the dumps Don't be silly chumps Just purse your lips and whistle That's the thing. And always look on the bright Side of life Come on. Always look on the right side Of life For life is quite absurd And death's the final word You must always face the curtain With a bow Forget about your sin give the Audience a grin Enjoy it it's your last chance Anyhow. So always look on the bright side Of death A Just before you draw your terminal breath Life's a piece of shit, when you look at it Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true You'll see its all a show, keep 'em laughing as you go Just remember that the last laugh is on you And Always look on the bright side Of life Always look on the right side Of life C'mon Brian, cheer up Always look on the bright side Of life Always look on the bright side Of life Worse things happen at sea you know. I mean what have you got to lose? You know, you come from nothing You're going back to nothing. What have you lost? Nothing. Always look on the right side (I mean) of life What have you got to lose? You know, you come from nothing You're going back to nothing. What have you lost? Always (Nothing) look on the right side of life Nothing will come from nothing ya know what they say? Cheer up ya old bugga c'mon give us a grin! There ya go, see! Always look on the right side of life (Cheer up ya old bugga c'mon give us a grin! At same time)
It is, in fact, according to Eric Idle himself, the number one requested song at British funerals However, given the source, I think you might want to take that with a rather large grain of salt....
