Jabba's Palace Song, 1983 version
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- The original song from Jabba's Palace, with a totally different vibe. This is the one that old people who grew up in the 70s and 80s always talk about. I like to think of it as "the version without the heavily-salivating singer creature". Captured from the 1995 VHS "One Last Time" edition.

I'll never forgive Lucas for getting rid of this absolute banger.
@@user-tb6sm4jg4d Oh god, you haven't seen it? It was replaced with an absolutely terrible, completely different song with bad CGI animation. You should look it up, it's worth seeing at least once.
@@user-tb6sm4jg4d I know what you mean. I had to find and watch this video because I just couldn't remember the original song. For whatever reason, George just doesn't want people to see the original cuts. They're a rarity nowadays. I don't get why they can't just put both versions up and let the viewers decide what to watch.
@@Galamoth06bro it was 1983 what did you expect?
@@jasonrobinson758 I mean, they could've just not used computer graphics at all, if that's what you mean.
I dont have a problem with the music change tbh. Whats so wrong about it?
This one feels so much better, not just because of the song, but because it feels more like watching people hanging out in a sleazy club instead of watching a musical number. 🙁
Exactly... Well said.
The puppets look kinda shitty though
I realize I'm kinda randomly asking but do anyone know of a good place to stream newly released series online?
@Jeremias Justus flixportal xD
@Alvaro Michael Thank you, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D I really appreciate it!!
God, I wish they kept this. It actually makes the tone more consistent considering how dark and creepy Jabba's is. I also like how it reminds me of the opening to Temple of Doom.
Me too I love the special editions of A New Hope & Empire Strikes Back but George Lucas killed Return Of The Jedi in the special edition
I agree
Yeah fr temple of doom vibes
George does his own thing. He had some crazy ideas for Temple of Doom too but Spielberg was there to talk him out of it. George would have killed ToD. But I absolutely agree. Miss the original version because it brings me back.
I just came for the kiss face women. Wanted to see the real thing not the CGI
I watched the full movie on Disney+ yesterday and I really wish this scene in particular had been left alone. It's catchy and there's no intrusive CGI. The original uncut versions of the original trilogy need to be brought back and remastered.
I have kept my parent’s VCR for years specifically so I could still watch the original version of these films. So glad I did.
Its in 2006 battlefront 2 🙂
Makes no sense why they refuse to release the original versions
@@zt1053 I think it's because George Lucas wanted us to see the edited versions as the official thing.
@@PTSmash I wonder if Lucas made them put it in the contract when he sold it that they could never change it to the originals.
If not they need to give Lucas the finger and remaster/ release them.
This is EXACTLY what I think music is like on an alien world.
To be precise: a SLEAZY alien world.
That's no alien world, that's good ol tattooine
It looks like Japanese music from that time
@@shinymoltres541370s beat
sounds like a good song for mr bungle to cover if you ask me.. nothing alien about it to my ears
If it ain't broke, don't "fix" it George.
Really? People are still saying shit like this when he hasn't even owned the series for almost a decade now? Ffs
I hate every version of this scene. I literally HATE this scene. When i was a little kid this shit TRAUMATIZED me. Really Lucas? It was necesary? I hope soon they delet this scene in every versión of the movie forever.
@@diganmelaraxd6981 wdym this is a great scene, honestly I like both versions, but even as a kid I enjoyed this
@@bulletmog Sorry bro but you're insane, this is worse than Jar Jar. For you is a "great" scene because you've really strange tastes, but objetivily that scene is bad, weird and bizzarre.
@@diganmelaraxd6981 objectively? Learn the definition of words moron, this is absolutely a matter of opinion, as you can see hundreds of comments on other videos in support of this scene, in both versions. Don’t try and make it so I’m the strange and stupid one when this is not an objective matter, but strictly one of opinion and don’t you dare try to make me seem like one who has strange tastes yet everyone else enjoys this scene, original or updated.
I hate when people put crap all over the screen at the end of videos.
Yeah it’s super annoying. Especially when the videos not even done yet.
That’s TH-cam, not the channel.
@@greasyboy737 its the channel, they give you the option to advertise your videos at the end . But you don't have to.
I hate when giant movie companies put crap CGI all over their classic Films.
@@WesTheHunter Don't we all
This original song SLAPS
Slaps what?
@@ThelronFjord ass
Pure facts!!!!
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 thats exactly why i just searched for this version!!!!!
@@Defmek82 what format did you watch it on?
I have kept my family’s old VCR around for years specifically so I could still watch the original versions.
Same, I still own a huge amount of movies on vhs because they're all original versions
Look in do 4k77 and 4k83
Genius lol time for me to buy a vcr and all the original trilogy for it. When I was a kid I used to watch the original trilogy on my dads laserdisc player all the time then one day it broke :( haven’t seen the movies in their original format since then :(
Whatever you do, do not lose those copies.
Look up "star wars despecialized addition" . All 3 movies restored exactly like they were originally released . In hd
0:54 “watch out big one”
"MOOOOVE BIIITCHES"
😂 😂 I didn’t hear that at first
LOL 😆
I always heard it as “watch out, that’s kwa”
Lol the singer was either signalling Oolah about the dancing dude or I guess she wanted to signal her that Jabba or his pet should not be messed with
This is so good, why the hell did they replace it? I grew up with the other version, not even nostalgia can blind me.
George never really liked this scene and always intended to replace it, he never liked the movements of the puppets or the song to begin with as he felt it made the scene dated
because its not nostalgia its objective analysis of quality. anyone with an IQ over 85 is smart enough to tell the difference emotionally and mentally.
@@brandonthetoyandgamecollector George spoke out AGAINST altering films back in 1988, yet he turned into the biggest cultural vandal of our time. It doesn't matter if he never liked that scene. It's disgusting that he's blocked anyone from ever re-releasing the cinematic cuts. There's no reason we couldn't have BOTH versions on a DVD, but no... George is a dog in a manger. If he can't enjoy it, no-one can. What a scumbag.
@@brandonthetoyandgamecollector and made it worse 💀
@@brandonthetoyandgamecollector George is a dumbass regardless... I mean the dude made the prequels and you saw how cheap and poorly made they were
In this original scene it makes sense that Boba Fett might be interested on hearing this, it even fits his character a bit. Instead on Jedi rocks it doesn't even make sense considering how awful and random that musical number was xD
I'm a 2000s baby and this is way better than the CGI screaming hairy man-thing
For me, cutting THIS track from the original remastered Star Wars trilogy was it's biggest mistake.
This song is leaps and bounds better than the revised version...and it ain't even close
Eh. I could take or leave either. I just don’t like 90’s cgi going right up the camera lol. The vader “no... no” added to the blu ray though? Kill me now haha.
I like the new one infinitely more
Y’all crazy if you think the revised version is better. The old version hits much harder. I mean, listen to the beat - shit is fire!
@@Rezzworks EXACTLY!!!!!
The orginal was like 70's funk vibe jams outta nowhere - the revised is like a contestant from 'The Voice' doing the theme from 'The Commitments'.
This feels more like a bar karaoke and The special edition feels more like a cringe rap
I cringe whenever that bit comes up.
i know, I was so embarrassed when watching it with my parents
It is literary jazz, but OK.
@@user-yo4bo5ww2y my bad
Nothing like rap… lol. Yikes
Cinematography also is very effective in this original version of the scene. Even the timing of the cut to “trophy Solo” in the background, while the music is playing, adds to the disturbing, “messed-up” quality, in terms of the picture of Jabba’s psychology. Solo on display is like Jabba’s trophy; the dancer is like his sex slave…. The lighting is dark and somber. Everything comes together tonally, in terms of dark and more than a little perverse, and the effect disturbs. I’m going to guess that “we’ll original version is dated” was a subterfuge and that Lucas was persuaded to make this scene more kid friendly.
Summed it up perfectly
The new song was pretty much a preview of the prequels.
The thing I hate about the new version the most is that this one could've been just as memorable as the cantina music, but it never got the chance because George Lucas thought an uncanny valley cockroach man belting out gibberish was more important than actually having music that fits into the star wars universe.
Bro stop hating, cockroach man was spitting facts
Hula wang chuku chiki baa baa chuku chiki baa baa ee oh oh AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEAAAHHH EEEEEEEEEEEAAHHHHHH
@@AImighty_Loaf yassssss
Holy shit this funky, sleazy beat fits this scene infinitely better. The scene in the current movies is borderline cringe-worthy but this is a masterpiece
For the most part, I like what they did to improve the special effects of the classic trilogy, but this scene is much better as it originally was.
All of the changes are dumb. And YOU are dumb.
I like the new aliens and the VFX update for the scene. I'm someone who likes, or doesn't mind almost all the Special Edition changes. The CGI Sly Snootle looks better than the puppet, which if we're being honest looked pretty bad. What I don't like is how the new version is so in your face. Feels like a tech demo got shoved in the movie and it probably was. They probably wanted to show off the CGI, but it ends up just sticking out like a sore thumb in the movie.
Naah this is nightmare fuel. I'll take gross cgi over whatever the hell that just was
@@rodericblack4657 Chill dude
@@valeriefey6622 Fuck you
Sny snootles muppet looked so much better than that awful cgi version. The creepy dancing movements really added to the feeling of just how afraid and uncomfortable you would be if you ended up in jabbas palace
Hell, the puppet is the canon design as they use it for tcw and other pictures she is in.
The song bops though
SUPERIOR VERSION
I was watching the new one on TV yesterday, and my parents could hear me quote Vader from the other room yelling “Noooooo!!!!” I can’t stand the new one! Bring back the realistic 80’s vibe song😭
New one?? 1997...
80s? More like 70s
@@megas13proto you on death sticks
@@matheuscardoso3718 Well yeah.. has there been another version after that?
As someone who grew up in the 2000's with the VCR's of the special editions, I never got to hear this version in Return of the Jedi. It wasn't until I played Star Wars Battlefront 2 on the PS2 when I heard the remixed version of this in that game. I was always confused on where this song came from in that game, because I didn't remember it from any of the movies. Now I know where it comes from ^^
Same experience here lol
I watched it first on this original version. I remember I used to have ALL six of the movies. The original and prequel trilogies on collector’s edition DVD (all two - discs). And I didn’t know where the tick they went 13 years ago almost 14 years ago. Yeah. It’s was like back at 2008. Still to this day I don’t know where and what happen to ‘em. Same with my Lethal Weapon series. But yeah I also remember seeing this first on my uncle’s VHS as it’s possibly from the ‘80s when he got those.
I was lucky enough to live 3 years with the original theatrical vhs tapes. I actually do remember when I was gifted the shiny Special Edition vhs set and I have always fast forwarded past the new version of the song. It was always horrible.
You just unlocked a memory for me playing that on the PS2 and wondering the same thing
bruvvvv i literally come to this song to see if it was the same from BF2 PS2. This song was so sick
This version is the reason that Max Rebo became popular. People loved the way the beat dropped in on him and kept coming back to him throughout. In the Lucas redo, you see him for like half a second.
I think max rebo's popularity comes largely from robot chicken mang
@@derangedcrouton1864 He was a favorite of mine since the movie came out. Had the action figures for the band because my mother found it on clearance along with other lower popularity figures like the Princess Leia Boushh and Admiral Ackbar.
I really think think the 1983 version way better than the new one
💯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
there is nothing wrong with this!!!! the fact that buying this version is impossible now is annoying
This is so much better than the newer version. Certain things should never be changed.
This is the only one as far as I'm concerned. We saw it in a packed theatre on the friday night it premiered and the crowd ERUPTED in laughter & applause when this scene came on - it was great!
Sy snootles in an alternate universe where she wasn’t in death sticks
The sound effect at about 00:06 sounds exactly like Vader's breathing as he is unmasked by Luke at the end of ROTJ
Still got this on vhs i dubbed off tv in 1989, 80s ads and all.
This song fits better in a Star Wars movie than the new one!
The one edit from Jabbas Palace I can appreciate is showing what happened after the green woman (she has a name I think but I genuinely don't remember it) gets dropped into the pit. That honestly added to the tension of the scene more than whatever the fuck George did to the song
Honestly that's the only improvement to me lol It's crazy thinking they filmed that rancor pit footage about 14 years after the original and Femi Taylor who played Oola the dancer girl hadn't appeared to age at all!
Original 🤔and the best version 100%❤
Love the rhythm of this song😎😉😀
Hey guys remember when they said revising movies for modern audiences should be a thing? Let this remain as the golden example as to why it should not.
I've been singing this for about a week, it's driving me crazy
This is a better song than most of the music that comes out now of day's.
Millions of light years ahead in time and still rocking some 70s flair.
A long time ago in a galaxy far away
Rufus you might want to watch the movies again. At least the scrolling text in the beginning.
And just FYI, a light year is a measure of distance, not time.
I love this so much better than the special edition version.
The coolest thing about this song is that it really sounds like a normal song
Practical effects looks so much better
While the new scene may look visually Better, this song just gives a better vibe, and really just captures Jabba’s palace
To me the visuals of this original were way better as well. The altered version looks like Pixar and the male singer CGI character just feels totally out of place. I prefer this by far, both the music and visuals. Wayyyy less cringe than the terrible altered version lol
This song is still so much better than what they replaced it with.
Welcome all my 35 and older compatriots from Disney+ who have come to remember and relish the original scene in all its glory.
Me @ 24 trying to see the og version lol
I always pull this up and time it up to watch when I'm watching this movie instead of the new version
For some reason, I love that they game Boba Fett a whole couple second scene of him looking serious and grabbing his wrist, like he was physically keeping himself from moving to the beat.
It's stuff like this that makes me thankful that I still own a VHS
The new version isn't bad, but this is a classic, there's simply no music that will fit the scene as well as this. My brain automatically relates the music to the scene and I don't want anything else.
"The new version isn't bad" ......WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG
Why did George Lucas remove this? It works so much better than what he ended putting in instead
why did he think Jar-Jar was going to be the new Yoda? He actually thought Jar-Jar was going to be the fan favorite. The one that "made the movie"
He removed the scene because it sounds too disco-like, so he replace it with jedi rocks.
A Funk classic!
dirty space funk
The shots are really reminiscent of Casablanca. Plus, directors from this era were far better at creating the illusion of space than modern directors simply because they had nothing but practical effects to work with. Angling through doorways and seating booths instead of showing the entire room span right away...and those are just two examples of how they accomplished that. The technique helps gives texture and substance to the intended "vibe" of Jabba's palace as well. Shots now days can often be way too revealing, way too soon. It might be great for the eye, but it's lazy for the mind and obviously geared for the shorter attention spans of these younger generations.
This applies to the older horror movies too.
Exactly. The cinematography in the OT is so much better than in the prequels and sequels.
This slaps so hard compared to the new version. Legitimately the only thing the new version does better is that one little frog alien jamming out on the harmonica in the beginning. Other than that this version blows the revised version straight out of the water.
Facts
I saw this as a kid when I watched all the VHS versions (born in 99) and was confused asf when I saw the new versions of the original trilogy. My family still had the old ones
Love this song
Original song is so much more chill and just....good! As opposed to the new crap they had to squeeze in. Also, Greedo didnt shoot AT ALL.
Lyrics - Huttese

Galactic Basic Standard:
Feel my body growing
My bones have started glowing, ooh
Wow!
The time has come for showing
That I'll shape you up and work you out
My body feels excitin'
My soul is synthesizin'
My whole frame is jumpin'
I'm workin' out and havin' fun
Work it out, you've got to move your soul
Work it out, you've got to feel the heat
Work it out, you've got to move your soul
Way better than the crap version done in 2000 like rap, here is a 80's sound
Florent Portes i know
It was not done in the 2000 it was done in 1997
What rap song sounds like that? 😂 it sounds like a kids musical number
A bit more timeless, eh?
Well yeah this is basically an early 80s Rick James song and I'm here for it!
This song is so much better! Got a good disco beat.
0:54 Get it girl!
God I this looks so much better than the CGI monstrosities in the remaster
This is far better than that new CGI bullshit they made
Same can be said for episodes IV and V.
I like the transition from the droid torture chamber to the song.
I'm glad the original exists.
Only if you have the VHS/DVD versions. Everything on TV is the 90s version.
This have a Prince funk feel to it, 100% better than the “updated” version.
0:19 I felt that.
Yeaaaaah
I like this version . I’m Japanese fan.
This should have never been changed in the special edition this is such a classic wish the song was longer
So much better than what they put in the remastered version.
I'll be real. I fuck with both. I watched this on tape as a kiddo and it was great, still is. By the time I was old enough to understand why people were upset about this scene, I was so deeply enraptured by the Star Wars universe that it didn't matter what song played or how much CGI there was in the new version. Way I see it is we got one hell of a star wars movie and two banger songs to go with it!
I WILL NEVER FORGET!
Great ending to the video entire screen covered with end card
This is the version I remember 👍🏼👍🏼
This version is far superior, the way Max Rebo just holds this beat and brings in Droopy McCool in that second verse, fuck this song is funky. Love it.
This version brings me back to my childhood.
It swings way more than the new version.
It should never have been changed, in my opinion. I mean, it's not my movie, and Lucas may and has done whatever he wishes. However, that being said, sometimes less is more. Too much, just seems like over-production, in my opinion.
So much better !!
This song is *WAY* better than Jedi Rock. C'mon George, don't overthink it.
Born in 1995, I feel sooooo lucky that my mom had the original versions of the trilogy on vhs, because those are the ones I had the privelage to grow up with ❤
I'm young enough to have never seen this before now. Its SOOO much better omg
Saw this movie once again at. Special premiere recently. Absolutely zooted out of my mind and I couldn't help but start laughing at the special effects the changes take away from the drama and remind me of the blunders of Disney
This feels like a much better fit for episode 6 instead of having a bunch of animated characters show up, the tone just doesn't match in the new version. Awesome to see this older version online
The lil saxophone riff makes me cry like tjis is from some alternate ORIGINAL universe that we are all really from
Okay, I'm not gonna say this is good because it's still quite the silly scene in the first place, but GOD! It's much better than the cringe fest George Lucas decided to add, the movie turns into a Shrek musical scene for a moment
the new song is good, it is true the cgi looks horrible, but if you notice only snootles and the other furry guy spn by cgi, the rest are with practical effects
0:25 I always liked how Jabba himself is grooving to the music🤘🏻
Me2 he my big sexy crush
That scene was icónic, no need to change it
As a massive Boba Fett fan as a kid, I love how badass they made him look here. As well as everything else, they managed to ruin that too.
this song hits different and is so much better than the new one
This is why you need both the silver and gold vcr sets. Not that I have a vcr anymore but I still have the tapes!
This song is...actually decent. No seriously. Of course, I prefer my Original Trilogy despecialized.
Everything about this scene FEELS like Star Wars and fits the scene and vibe of Jabba’s palace. I don’t expect to talk into a place like that with people of that quality and think I’d hear JEDI ROCKS as opposed to the jizz they were playing in the original. It just fit more
1:02 The music pops off
As someone who grew up with the special editions and am therefore not biased by nostalgia in the way others might be, i can say that this is my preferred version, altho i must say i do remember the song from the Star Wars Battlefront 2 video game so i do have nostalgia for the song but not in relation to this scene if that makes sense
I prefer this song but I have to say that the transition from the Droid's scene to the music one is way smoother in the new version.
I miss this version
I like this version better than the other one.
its been so fucking long since ive seen this version. bless you
This scene is so good and it’s one of my favorites in the original trilogy cause it was the first and only true moment of sleaze in Star Wars. I know that George is embarrassed about anything that dates these movies, but the irony is that the CG in the “remasters” dates those movies so much more than any of these scenes.
I love how vile and gross this made Jabba and all his buddies look and it’s such a great way to illustrate what kind of being Jabba is. (A great human being 👀)
I still hate that they replaced this scene.
It’s crazy how much better this is!!!
