I’m 72 and I’ve seen a lot of concerts but RATM is in my top 5 of all time. When I left the concert I was totally exhausted and drenched in sweat. We need these guys now more than ever. Peace
I was at Woodstock 99 in that crowd watching Rage Against The Machine perform this song. I got chills then and I get chills watching it now. This group isn't a gimmick group, they believed in everything they did. Zach's passion says it all during this performance, their entire set was amazing that night.
This comment is 6 years old but you also have to think of the climate in the band tempers we’re FLYING I’m sure fears for there own careers were a point of thought
Zach *always* put his *all* into EVERY single performance. He was always extremely passionate when performing...and yes, indeed, it was very chilling & intense (as was every performance/video & song). That's so much of the reason I love him/them!!! ❤❤❤
+Eric Hansen They crushed EVERY single song & performance they ever did. They are wayyy too underrated, in my opinion, anyway. I wish they'd come back!!!!
We have Lofofora in France, close to them in term of lyrics. No One Is Innocent is not so bad at writing songs. But lyrics + music, ratm is far far above all, sure !
zack shredding tears, definitely feeling the hard shifts that the joads definitely faced. sad thing people don't see and recognize these type of things, so powerful that these things are still happening today. JUSTICE HAS NOT BEEN DONE!!
@@Sig721Tau @Travelin' Ted they are a family in The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck. It's about a Midwestern USA family that has to be migrate in the Dust Bowl during the Great Depression.
In my opinion I think Zak is one of the BEST RAPPERS OF ALL TIME. You got Biggie and Tupac...and they are my favorites as well..but it seems to me that Zak does not get any props at all as a RAPPER/PROPHET/ALCHEMIST/and drops INCREDIBLE knowledge in all his rhymes and lyrics. I put him in my top 3 best rappers of all times list DEFINITELY! Is there anyone out there that agrees with me??
I've seen these guys at least 10 times at different venues, festivals and on their own. ALL BEFORE 2000.... ALWAYS a blast and I gotta admit, the crowds were the best....
I think he was crying at the part when he saying "no job, no home, no peace, no rest." I know I would be, because this song is powerful because it's true and it's still going on till this day and people turn to look the other way.
.......Ma, whenever ya see a cop beatin' a guy Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries Wherever there's a fight against blood and hatred in the air Look for me...Ma, I'll be there Wherever somebody's strugglin' for a place to stand For a decent job or a helpin' hand Wherever somebody is strugglin' to be free Look in their eyes, Ma, you'll see me You'll see me...

watch the movie "The Grapes of Wrath" it`s a 1940`s movie starring Henry Fonda. It`s about the great depression and the main character in the movie is Tom Joad. it gives a spot on reflection of this song, or should I say, this song is about that movie.

Judging by the crowd it appears RATM's message was a lost on the audience in attendance. That said, the forces (seen and unseen) at hand are far worse than most want to believe. Still, I can understand the meaning behind this song for the struggles are definitely real between the have's and the have nots even though RATM's " The Ghost of Tom Joad" is a remake they knocked this song out of the park and beyond!
I am a libertarian minded person. I don't hate rich people, I just know they are buying politicians to keep their position. Damn if Zack don't stir so many emotions. Anger, sadness. I have no doubt of his heart for poor people. I don't agree with him on much, but I appreciate his honesty and caring. You can feel it when he sings. Not many can stir people like that.
Dear RATM, I don't know what y'alls issues are and why you broke up. But your country needs you now. Please put those issues aside. The world needs you now. COME BACK!!!!
As much as I love other rock bands like Metallica, sabbath, rush , Panteraand Iron Maiden and others no other band has made me feel chills like rage has.
Am I a total weirdo for thinking Zach (especially 90's Zach) is/was sooo fucking *incredibly*, *insanely* sexy!?!?!?! GOOD LORD!!!!! 😍😍😍 I swear if there was such thing as a time machine I would seriously, honestly go back to when RATM was big & become a groupie... I would go to every RATM concert & get up on dat as many times as I could!!! 😂😂 Same with sexy 90's Maynard James Keenan & the gorgeous Kurt Cobain (before he met Courtney & got into a relationship with her, of course. Sometime while he was still single, dammit!! haha) 😄
I’m 72 and I’ve seen a lot of concerts but RATM is in my top 5 of all time. When I left the concert I was totally exhausted and drenched in sweat. We need these guys now more than ever. Peace

Your very fortunate too have seen them.
Agree...peace!

I was too and they had the opportunity to enrage the crowd even more, but settled it down and still had a fantastic show
Zach's shedding tears...heart n soul comin at ya

In 2022, this message is more real than ever.
Dam Zack de la Rocha looked like he put 100% into that song, absolutely chilling stuff.
+Liam Huxley They crushed this song.

I would’ve loved to be around this day and age. These guys are legit!!
de la Rocha's passion is a big part of what made this band so amazing.
1:20 is one of the best moments I've ever seen. Zacks passion is insane
nothing like this band anywhere in the world
Yeap, I love how RATM made this their own, fucking class, a LOT of upcoming bands needs to study these motherfuckers.
We have Lofofora in France, close to them in term of lyrics. No One Is Innocent is not so bad at writing songs. But lyrics + music, ratm is far far above all, sure !

If I could give you a billion likes I would

It's probably my favorite book ever written. Fucking love Steinbeck.

Please, enlighten me on who's the Joads?

No...one DAY it WILL BE
Well.
Here we are.
We need RATM.
We need the energy, the passion, the will to not be crushed by the machine.
This world is worth fighting for.
and we have a pandemic cancelling their tour
... there is an intergalactic petition for this band to reunite...
... my vote stands... for the next thousand years...

this is a cover of an older song lol
AGREED. My absolute favorite artist period.
Yes I agree with you Thomas a legend full of passion.👍😃💙!fk
santi Bruce Springsteen song and album title of the same name.
I agree. He’s better than them all.
Nobody sings this like Zack, one of a kind
The energy they produce is out of this world
Probably the only band that gives me the chills.
Why am I here? My music teachers getting me hooked to ratm. But Zack? KING ENERGY
I remember watching this as a 12 year old live on MTV back in the day. This song especially blew my mind. So dark.
I'm indirectly a huge Springsteen fan thanks to Rage.. one of my top 5 favorite covers, and maybe the best live one....may the Rage be with you.... ✌️
We need this band now more than ever before!!!
I've seen these guys at least 10 times at different venues, festivals and on their own. ALL BEFORE 2000.... ALWAYS a blast and I gotta admit, the crowds were the best....
You’re so lucky!!
1:29 ... ahi esta el sentimiento de toda la cancion... hasta lloro yo
Already becoming distant and nostalgic like where does time go so fast.
I think he was crying at the part when he saying "no job, no home, no peace, no rest." I know I would be, because this song is powerful because it's true and it's still going on till this day and people turn to look the other way.
TheApproximite yeah looked like that
......man up
TheApproximite its painting a picture of what's to come.
Capitalism makes people look the other way and creating fake images of reality...
bobinchainz Fuck you bellend
My God, this band is another thing, mad respect
I was there, one of the best performances the whole weekend.
I'll never forgive myself for not going I was 15 that summer
I was also there. They were why I went. Came from California and will never forget it. Mad love for Rage Against The Machine.
One of the most beautiful creatures to walk this Earth 😭😍
hotcomodity21 I KNOW!! its so inspiring!!!..fuck the u .s!! and all there corruption!!!
FINALLY going to see them in concert in July !!!!!!!!!! One of my TOP 3 favorite bands!
RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE
LOVE TO HEAR THEIR MESSAGES
This song is so up to date...
this is the best version of this song.
get your ears checked
Wayne Wilkinson Jr
Hell NO!!! Their EVIL EMPIRE TOUR at IRVINE MEADOWS AMPHITHEATER in 1997 September 18 & 19th was the best!!!
I was there!!! ✊😎
Champagne Hec aND siNCe i WAs thERe iT tOTALLy meAnS IT wAS thEiR bESt verSION
Or does he mean compared to the original song. Written by Bruce Springsteen?
The version with Bruce Springsteen and Tom Morello is crazy badass.
I was there. It was one of the most amazing things.
zach de la rocha tears flowin to the song, it touch the soul and inner rage!!
Tom Morello...absolutely top guitar!
Wow! Those are some deep powerful lyrics that keeps on hitting you right between the eyes even though it's nearly ten years later.
They rocked the hell out of this
I was there. It was ungodly powerful.
this song hits, even to this day.
Amazing vocals. Morello's guitar work on point as usual.
Every time I see Prophets Of Rage coming nearby I see a missed opportunity to potentially see RATM, damn that'd be a dream come true COME BACK ZACH
One of the best singers, frontmen and band of all-time...and this is one of my favorite R.A.T.M songs.
It’s great. Springsteen song tho
One of my all-time favorite songs to play… I do it more in the Springsteen/ Morello mode, but love this hard slammin’ Rage…
never gets old and will not
I didn't realize this was a cover the first few times I heard this, they have such a spin on it
Amazing. Powerful. Kick ass. Love you guys ALWAYS
Cause they're right wing nut jobs
@@silverioperez490 Huh??? RATM is absolutely NOT right wing. I hope you're joking.
This is awesome. Im a huge Springsteen fan so to hear this song played by another favorite band. They do it better than the original.
#justiceforfloyd
#nojusticenopeace
Love the passion, simply fing amazing man. Hope I get the chance to see them.
I'd heard rage on the radio, but seeing this performance on FOX did it for me. I was HOOKED.🤘🤘
Unreal
I saw RATM at Rock The Bells 2007 and only regret was they didn’t do this song but was still 1 of best shows I’ve ever seen✊🏼
.......Ma, whenever ya see a cop beatin' a guy
Wherever a hungry newborn baby cries
Wherever there's a fight against blood and hatred in the air
Look for me...Ma, I'll be there
Wherever somebody's strugglin' for a place to stand
For a decent job or a helpin' hand
Wherever somebody is strugglin' to be free
Look in their eyes, Ma, you'll see me
You'll see me...
You'll see me...
You'll see me...
You'll see me...
You'll see me.
You'll see me...
You'll see me.
You'll see me.......
When the Feds pay attention to your Playlist, you know you're impactful.
Zack is a hero
Yes sir. Comrade Zack is very cool!
Goosebumps 🤗
This song resonates hard after these last four years we’ve experienced in this Country.
Adoro o som dessa GRANDE BANDA E AINDA GOSTO MAIS AGORA QUE É DAS NOSSAS,DOS ANTIFAS E DO ROCK RESIT DO BONO, ROGER WATERS NEIL YONG. PARABÉNS.
pure reality of our times, we are living

More relevant now than ever
God damn!! You know what that look in Zack's eye is? That's him looking around & knowing that Rage owns that f****** place right there, right then!
Beautiful

Great! Thanks for posting.
I headbanged so hard to this song that I caught up a menacing migraine.
Love that...
"WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER!!!!" Holy sh%$, Zach wudnt pulling no punches that night
RideMyTruck Springsteens lyrics but still
Shorter version but still sick they played this!
This shit gives me chills
Protect Zach at all costs man. He's a Saint.
Yes
Nothing else compares to this vid
When I need ti get pumped
I am a libertarian minded person. I don't hate rich people, I just know they are buying politicians to keep their position. Damn if Zack don't stir so many emotions. Anger, sadness. I have no doubt of his heart for poor people. I don't agree with him on much, but I appreciate his honesty and caring. You can feel it when he sings. Not many can stir people like that.
Yeah, I'd love to see a podcast with Joe Rogan, Rand Paul and Zach De La Rocha talk for 4 hours.
Well played sir
Love watching u guys i miss it
The crescendo brutality makes this song a ripper !!!!
INSIDE OUT & RATM WERE AND ARE BOTH LEGENDARY!!!! IF YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF INSIDE OUT....IT WAS A BAND OF ZACHS! CHECK THEM OUT! AMAZING!
Wat a band...!!!
Excellent live performance: They stuck close to the studio performance because in this one the message is more important than the show !!!
their best version by far....
Dear RATM, I don't know what y'alls issues are and why you broke up. But your country needs you now. Please put those issues aside. The world needs you now. COME BACK!!!!
Melhor banda do mundo
I like the rage Zack!!!
I suggested on reddit that Zach and crew were one of the most influential metal protest artists of all time.
Why would anyone care what you put on reddit?
@@curnwah11 this turd thinks he's a commie god on subreddit lmao.
@ 1:29 i think i would like to cry to! Unescapable fucking goosebumps!
The Grapes of Wrath.
Yes that's where Tom Joad can from. It's on their website. R u coming to the Denver show? Their comin to Denver with Wu Tang
Every lyric he writes is soooooooooooo deeeeeep!
This is Springsteen
As much as I love other rock bands like Metallica, sabbath, rush , Panteraand Iron Maiden and others no other band has made me feel chills like rage has.
It's because of Zach.. his words his action the conviction in his voice and emotion.. nothing like it to this day!
Tom Morello riffs are a machine gun ready to kill fascists ...man is a beast in the guitar
We need that machine gun right now
One of the few songs that kick the original in the ass
Not even close
Maggie's farm as well I feel like personally

"Welcome to the new world order"....makes the hair on my arms stand up in our planet's time of plague.

This is the deepest possible groove.
You see me .... you see me...you see meeeeeeeeeeeee....
The Grapes of wraith.~~The Joad family story
I just gladly blew my stereo system playing this for the neighborhood
A song written by BS, masterfully performed by Zac!

Their gig in Argentina was atomic.
