When I was a kid playing San Andreas, I teared up a bit when I heard this music while flying around the southern county with a helicopter. Truly felt like a free bird.
Actually thats a curiosity, in GTA SA in all aereal vechicles wich a radio is avaliable it'll sounds this as first as Ice T's Good Day using lowrider cars
Fun fact: this song was only ever recorded once, since the guitar player's fingers were left in pieces after that ungodly solo. What a legend, sacrificed his music career for us.
Fun fact: This is actually wrong. He recorded this twice. This solo is just those 2 tracks dubbed over each other. The parts with 2 electric guitars are those parts
@@Kiorsk The OP is joking but they really did record it only twice for both guitar tracks you hear. They literally perfectly played it twice, layered the tracks and boom, you're listening to the finished product.
To have the desired part of Free Bird (4:55) play at exactly 12:00 AM, you will need to start the song at 11:55:05 PM on December 31st. This will allow the song to play through to the desired part and end at exactly 12:00 AM.
They played this at my Dad's funeral. He was shot and murdered in cold blood and it was devastating. He even had a free bird tattoo on his arm. RIP Dad. Miss you every day.
They played this at my Rat's funeral, this was his favorite song. He spun so hard to this song that he threw up his guts. RIP Rat, I hope you are spinning in heaven.
This song was one of my son's favorite songs. When we road together he would crank this song up. Sadly last year, January 16th of 2022, we lost him. He was only 37 and full of life. The grief is still overpowering, and our lives will never be the same. We'll miss you forever " blue eyes".
My brother passed in his sleep @ 37, May 20, 1987, I know he is with our Lord but time lessons the grief, in the beginning it killed me inside I had to lean heavily upon God for comfort, because people around you don't know what you are going through only God does, I hope this helps my friend !!!
@@stephenhayden2712 The grief is still so strong. 1 year, 7 months now as of 16 th of this month. Every day a struggle. Thank you for sharing and God bless.
@@schecter5035 how long have u been playing for? i got myself a electric guitar after playing classic for like 9 years ( on and off) and shit is so different, i played around 7 hours in 3 days and my left hand is killing me
I'm a 74 year old Vietnam Combat Veteran, who because of Agent orange (Dioxin poisoning) have several health issues and sadly I'm dying... I spent 9 years Army, but was an Avid Music collector all my life.... the death of the 71 year old song writer and Guitarist Gary Rossington, from Lynyrd Skynyrd, has come as a shock... love the band and his songs.... another great loss!
You’ve served your country good. Maybe if you get a reply, we could probably meet in that big cloud in the sky some day. Hopefully there might be some service up there. Who knows.
big time... sadly now, if you like anything of the southern American heritage, you are some slow bigot.. funny how they banned/scapegoated the southern flag, but left the British, they having invented industrial slavery... and the flag of the united states, which was a massively racist part of the country... also, people need to realize, regular men and women were not behind this... the wealthy elite who backed the armies and ruled were, it was PC then, and this was from the top, to think black people, and other races were sub human, just as it is PC now, and from the top, to think very poorly of the south, white people, males... the PC thugs bashing white people and the flag today, are the same as those who were saying blacks in the USA were another race, the Irish under British rule were sub human, the serfs were lesser life forms in Russia, and those most loudly shouting the virtues of Stalinism under Stalin... the PC message, has always been evil and a message that the people at the top push down to society, through TV, movies and colleges, schools, PC has never been anything but a tool of the oppressor.. supported by militant conformists today... real racism and sexism have always been reflected in what groups it is acceptable to say what you want about.. who is that today, white, straight, and male... and in some places Muslims.. fuck, in some places, where you can not question the official account of ww2, the greatest expression of free speech is to draw vulgar images of another people's profit .. and these muppets think they are pro free speech, and anti PC... militant conformist fools... god bless them but this is what they have been made.. totally programmed, spouting handed down instructions, as if they are their own views. Love this song... a classic if there ever was.
Love how everyone mentions what brought them here, wether its GTA or a movie. What brought me here was a literal meme that said "POV: Youre a sex offender and the sex defenders have found you" and it was a cod zombies clip
Hear ya my brother. 👍 Wait till Jesus returns he will set the record straight did you know his skin is as fiery amber in color !!! And his beautiful hair as wool !!! I Love him with all my heart !!! And cry when I think of him because I know I can't SAVE mine ownself but because I called on him he can and promised to. And I had it in me to call out to him. HE'S THE LORD God , our God the Lord and he ain't dead no more but has risen !!! brother he was born into this World from the Tribe of JUDAH by our Mother Miriam better known as Mary in America and the symbol is the LYON !!!! Where had lyons come from ? Think , 👍 You see they in the known Churches never told us that and to think they kicked me out from among them 😥 I'm a brother who lost his color. I speak now because I desire all men to be SAVED everywhere and seeing he SAVED my wretched ass how can I not tell others ? God bless you and if you except the KING of the Jews who came from above then afterwards tell others. PEACE ✌
4:55 This solo is just... everything, it encapsulates literally any scene. It is not happy, nor sad, it is simply epic enough that it only increases the emotional impact of any scene it's attributed to. You could say that, in a way, it's truly... _a free bird._

My parents were driving me to the airport for my flight to university. Free Bird comes on the radio, I stare out the window at the rolling hills, trying to hide my tears. That was almost a decade ago. Keep sharing your self and your love
I love this comment so much. I am very anxious and sad at the same time because i'll be leaving home for university in a few months time, and i'm traveling half a world away. I am genuinely scared for what's to come
Great song was used in the movie called Elizabethtown starring Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst great movie and great song very underrated movie love Anthony Fed ex lol ❤😊❤😊❤😊😊❤❤😊😊
A truly timeless song. Weird to think that you and I and everyone we know will be long gone in years to come, yet this song will keep playing and remain as one of the greatest songs of all time. 1973!.. and forever
No matter what the fuck brought everybody to this clip, be it love for the band, a movie, a game, a show. The only thing that matters is that we all get to enjoy this masterpiece and as long as it lasts (9 minutes sadly) we are all united in delight. Godspeed.
Music crosses colors generations and boundaries. I’m black in my 60s grew up in the inner city. Motown era. Opened my horizons in the early 70s to all forms of music and never turned back. Now I listen to every form of music with respect attached to it. Free bird is a classic iconic song meant for all. Next on the playlist “Horse with no name” Godspeed!
If I had a soundtrack to my life this would be the first song on my list. Ppl think I'm crazy because I'm a young Black man and I love this band and this is my favorite song of all time.
I remember when I met the girl of my dreams. Circa 1996. She was married and I didn't want anything to do with her because of that. I met her at my job at the time and we shared breaks together, shared tapes and shared stories. She used to tell me how bad her Husband was, I didn't take the bait. I was working installing a cassette player in my Chevelle (1972) SS in my driveway and I happen to look up in the rear view mirror and there she was. She said she got a divorce and wanted to be with me. After about a year she cheated on me with the same guy she messed around on her Husband with. I stuck it out. We spent a lot of time together, up until 2012. Come to find out after all those years, no kids with her because she had her tubes tied, that she would rather be with someone else. That's fine, she didn't ruin me, but made me stronger. I still miss the good times we had, I used to play this song as loud as possible after I found out she cheated. Anyways, sorry for the cliché post, just had to get that out there. Beth, if you're reading this, I'm free now.
I met a girl named Barbara, she's a sheriff somewhere in the desert. she already have 2 kids and I still dated her. things went good and I was out driving on my Feltzer to Tierra Robada. I was chillin' then I got a wanted star. I wonder why, but I evaded the cops by driving playing Free Bird on K-DST. It was a fun and thrilling time and I went to pick up Barbara and we went on a date. the next thing I knew when we went back to her place, she cuffed me for the crimes I didn't even commit.
lyrics; If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be traveling on now 'Cause there's too many places I've got to see. But if I stayed here with you, girl, Things just couldn't be the same. 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you cannot change. And this bird you cannot change. And this bird you cannot change. Lord knows I can't change. Bye, bye, baby, it's been a sweet love, yeah, Though this feeling I can't change. But please don't take it so badly, 'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame. But if I stayed here with you, girl, Things just couldn't be the same. 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you'll never change. And the bird you cannot change. And this bird you cannot change. Lord knows, I can't change. Lord, help me, I can't change. Lord, I can't change. Won't you fly high, free bird, yeah?
My brother passed away 5 days ago. He said he wanted this song to be played at his funeral. I will always miss him. Rest in peace brother OTF. Wait for me in heaven... we'll see each other soon
I’m as privileged as privileged person gets. Every night, or most of the nights, in the local bar that i work at, there are two guys that always come for a drink and to talk for a bit... they’re old bikers, born in the fifties, played music all their lives... god...the stories they tell and re-tell, the wisdom they pour out to me, life lessons and the way they make me happy to be alive at that moment! They truly are the free birds and i feel absolutely blessed that they want to share at least a glimps in to their lives. Rock on buddies, thank you for existing!
My fiancé loved this song said he identified with it,he died suddenly I feel as if he is singing to me. Such a sad,thought provoking song. Makes me cry and smile remembering him. Great song.
@OneUp RunDone and @Spodobagodo So sorry for your loss you two. I know it hurts right now and yeah, you're still gonna miss them, but it won't hurt *so* bad, all the time, forever. I can't tell you how long it'll take, because I don't know how close you guys were to your friends, but it *does* get better.
If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me?

To have the desired part of Free Bird (4:55) play at exactly 12:00 AM, you will need to start the song at 11:55:05 PM on December 31st. This will allow the song to play through to the desired part and end at exactly 12:00 AM.
Going to do that tonight!
Fuck you, why haven't you told me this before after I watched Kingsman The Secret Service
I am delighted how at 4:55 he says it's freebirdin' time and starts spin rats all over. Definitely one of the songs ever written!

This fuckin solo is one of the greatest things I’ve ever heard. I turn this shit up load as I can when it comes on.
@Rimma Bobyleva Ha, as if anyone sensible would click on that
It's an epic guitar rift. America has produced some great musicians 💪👌
Freedom
OMG! EXACTLY THE SAME THING I THINK!
i am trying to learn it on guitar, not that hard actually since it's just a lot of parts repeating but still u gotta be a fast boi to play it
This song makes to wanna accept myself for who I am and not try to impress others.
that's what life's about , do it. better yourself and you will see the world around you better as well.
Exatly,same!!!!
Nice 👌
"Simple Man" makes me feel that way
Listen to it everyday then .
Rest in piece Gary you Are a Legend, be as free as a bird
2020 and the solo is still going..
what???
Legend says...
Facts
I really felt that.
@@arthurmorgan9813 I don't get it either lol
You don't wanna know how much time I spent playing the air guitar...
Lol
I'm guessing nine minutes.
@@ecdmuppet a closer guess would probably be in years not minutes !
Lmao
Correction.... I don’t care how much time you spent playing the air guitar!!!
This song gives me a really weird feeling, i feel like the solo can and will start at any moment
I feel like floating and spinning around for 10 hours.
I feel like a low quality rat spinning for 1 hour non-stop

This was my daughter's favorite song. She died of an overdose two years ago. She was a Free Bird for sure and now she flies with the angels.
sorry so sorry
At least she lived with a loving parent.
What’s up with so many dead family member stories in the comment section!? But, sorry about your daughter

My parents were driving me to the airport for my flight to university. Free Bird comes on the radio, I stare out the window at the rolling hills, trying to hide my tears. That was almost a decade ago. Keep sharing your self and your love
Xox o
sad but so hopeful moment.
fly high free bird
I love this comment so much. I am very anxious and sad at the same time because i'll be leaving home for university in a few months time, and i'm traveling half a world away. I am genuinely scared for what's to come
Yeah bro how's uni going? Got yourself a girl yet?
Im proud to be American, and I was born in Portugal..!
Great song was used in the movie called Elizabethtown starring Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst great movie and great song very underrated movie love Anthony Fed ex lol ❤😊❤😊❤😊😊❤❤😊😊
A truly timeless song. Weird to think that you and I and everyone we know will be long gone in years to come, yet this song will keep playing and remain as one of the greatest songs of all time. 1973!..
and forever
Word.
Amen.
No matter what the fuck brought everybody to this clip, be it love for the band, a movie, a game, a show. The only thing that matters is that we all get to enjoy this masterpiece and as long as it lasts (9 minutes sadly) we are all united in delight. Godspeed.

Hahaha legend

Haha
This played at my uncle's funeral and a few of us all sang along to it together. He used to love this song so it was special💕
This song is legendary. It will never stop being awesome, because like a bird, it can not change.
Music crosses colors generations and boundaries. I’m black in my 60s grew up in the inner city. Motown era. Opened my horizons in the early 70s to all forms of music and never turned back. Now I listen to every form of music with respect attached to it. Free bird is a classic iconic song meant for all. Next on the playlist “Horse with no name” Godspeed!
sadly this is missed with the current generation/politics.
@Mr Sinister
I mean, I'm 20 and I'm enjoying it.
Spinning rat
I am from Istanbul and for me this is the best song ever written

If I had a soundtrack to my life this would be the first song on my list. Ppl think I'm crazy because I'm a young Black man and I love this band and this is my favorite song of all time.
I remember when I met the girl of my dreams. Circa 1996. She was married and I didn't want anything to do with her because of that. I met her at my job at the time and we shared breaks together, shared tapes and shared stories. She used to tell me how bad her Husband was, I didn't take the bait. I was working installing a cassette player in my Chevelle (1972) SS in my driveway and I happen to look up in the rear view mirror and there she was. She said she got a divorce and wanted to be with me. After about a year she cheated on me with the same guy she messed around on her Husband with. I stuck it out. We spent a lot of time together, up until 2012. Come to find out after all those years, no kids with her because she had her tubes tied, that she would rather be with someone else. That's fine, she didn't ruin me, but made me stronger. I still miss the good times we had, I used to play this song as loud as possible after I found out she cheated. Anyways, sorry for the cliché post, just had to get that out there. Beth, if you're reading this, I'm free now.
When you showed up at her family’s Christmas dinner 4:55
You a simp
Good for you, and good riddance. Fly free and don't look back.
I met a girl named Barbara, she's a sheriff somewhere in the desert. she already have 2 kids and I still dated her. things went good and I was out driving on my Feltzer to Tierra Robada. I was chillin' then I got a wanted star. I wonder why, but I evaded the cops by driving playing Free Bird on K-DST. It was a fun and thrilling time and I went to pick up Barbara and we went on a date. the next thing I knew when we went back to her place, she cuffed me for the crimes I didn't even commit.
Keep your head up king, she didnt deserve you
This was my graduation song. Class of 1980. FREE BIRD! We were some rowdy MF’ers.
This guitarist should be named and honoured. Love this.
어릴적 수백번이나 반복해 듣던 곡인데 40년이 지난 지금도 들으니 가슴벅차올르는 명곡입니다 잘듣고갑니다

Just cried like a baby at my window listening to this while watching the sea gulls circling . Thinking of my guy. Gone for 12 years. Rip.
I remember in 1977 hearing the news of their plane crash. It left me empty.
Shut up
Dear friend bless you
I’m as privileged as privileged person gets. Every night, or most of the nights, in the local bar that i work at, there are two guys that always come for a drink and to talk for a bit... they’re old bikers, born in the fifties, played music all their lives... god...the stories they tell and re-tell, the wisdom they pour out to me, life lessons and the way they make me happy to be alive at that moment! They truly are the free birds and i feel absolutely blessed that they want to share at least a glimps in to their lives. Rock on buddies, thank you for existing!
probably hells angels from the seventies
Supporters, i reckon, but not part of 81 from what i’ve heard by now :)
Truly great people to be around :)
Wowww!!! What part of USA are you from?
Probably share some stories with us too buddy
I signed the d papers You are a free bird...Fly baby fly..just know you threw me away like a peice of trash.

So sorry for your loss

This one's for my buddy. He went on tonight. Bless your heart.
Sorry for your loss, my friend, i put it on thinking about one that went last November. Wish i could say it gets easier...
@OneUp RunDone and @Spodobagodo So sorry for your loss you two. I know it hurts right now and yeah, you're still gonna miss them, but it won't hurt *so* bad, all the time, forever. I can't tell you how long it'll take, because I don't know how close you guys were to your friends, but it *does* get better.
Sorry for your loss, mate...it hurts me to hear that, even tho i’ll never know who you are...stay strong!
RIP
Feel better mate...

Free Bird Is Still A Great Song
I loved how the film Kingsman: The Secret Service uses this, in arguably one of the best scenes in the film
Arguably ?....
It's one of the best scenes in ANY film EVER.
Probably my favorite action scene of all time and this music only makes it better.
carter rutkoski I would have to agree.
Nicholas Sultana now i really want to see the film have yet to see it.
One of the best guitar solo to date ! 🎸🎸🤩
