Found this to add to the Soundtrack information on IMDb, to see if there's any further information here I can include, third Gogol Bordello thus far in just the first two episodes. :) At this point I suspect they'll be a regular appearance. The other two songs I found and added (the title music and Episode 1's end title) were also quite European in nature. I previously knew Gogol Bordello from a performance they did with Madonna mixing her La Isla Bonita with their Pale Tute, I've watched that video SO many times!
I have been wearing purple for the last 20years. I get lots of good comments which make me feel good. I have just found this song. I am 80years young.xx love it
Just saw this was uploaded 15 years ago. That doesn’t make me feel old, that makes me want to connect my phone to a battery bank and blast it through my PA speakers nonstop all day and all night
I saw them last summer and they blew the crowd away. It was my favorite part of Riot Fest, which I really didn't want to go to, but they made the day 5000 kajillion times better.
Saw Gogol Bordello in DC last week :D During the whole thing it felt like I was continuously going to burst with happiness. The concert ended and the whole band went offstage and out of sight but we, the entirety of the audience, we wouldn't budge! We were like vultures and we wanted MORE Gogol Bordello. The band walked back in one by one, booze in hand, with Eugene declaring "we could go on all night." I lost all sense of time but if i'm not mistaken they gave us almost an extra hour!!! It was a truly remarkable night. Thank you members of Gogol Bordello. Would attend again and again and again.
+Saleh Alarfaj I get to see em at BottleRock on the 29th. Going for Chili Peppers, but looking up unknown artists on the lineup and OMG!... totally digging this!
Saw them years ago at the 930 club in DC. It was one of the most balls-out, insane, fun, (drunk) concerts I've ever been to. I don't say this about a lot of bands, but I'd go see them anywhere, anytime, even if it was a street corner.
Eugene Hutz, The lead singer and song writer of Gogol Brodello is a genius. He is absolutely incredible on stage. The entire band is awesome as well. I've watched a couple interviews of Eugene and even his English is very articulate, expressive, and enunciated. He has said his music and song writing is his religion. When you see him perform it comes straight from the heart.
"It's one of the very few songs I wrote for a girl. I just moved in with my girlfriend in New York. We had a neighbour: an old woman who was always dressed in purple head to toe. She was clearly bonkers. So whenever my girlfriend and I had an argument and she would start screaming at me, I would say: you might as well start wearing purple now." -Gogol Bordello
Been listening to this song for years and had no idea what the point was, but I love it. That is absolutely hilarious, and defintely something I would do/say! Love it, man!
@@juliaistominaoden5801 I always took it as "Embrace insanity for me." or "Let's be crazy together." "Purple" is also used to describe writing that's over the top and florid. So I look at it as symbolizing insanity and self-indulgence. I think it's the idea of letting loose and being yourself in a relationship.
I love playing this song at open mic nights, jam sessions, anyplace I can get a bunch of musicians together. It's a two-chord song, fun as heck, and ANYBODY can solo wildly over that chorus vamp. One time at a convention I started with my fiddle and a buddy with a kazoo, and by the end of it we had a purple conga-line weaving through three ballrooms.
Thank you😊 Almost broke my brain trying to remember where I heard it... Love this movie. When my husband wants to say No, he used to say "Grandfather said it's impossible"😅
There is nothing better than hearing this played over the loudspeaker system after another pathetic Minnesota Vikings loss. Heard it years ago and could not believe it. I sang as loud as I could. I was so happy to hear this band, I forgot about the loss.
Hutz says the song is about a crazy neighbor he once had while living with his then-girlfriend. The neighbor was an old lady who used to dress in purple head-to-toe. According to Hutz, the woman was "clearly bonkers." When Hutz and his girlfriend had an argument, the girlfriend would scream and Hutz would respond by saying "you might as well start wearing purple now."
Thank you for explaining! haha I just thought this guy was crazy. I have a dance class and we're learning a choreography to this song and it was really curious to me so I looked it up lol
I went to Ireland on a class trip (originally from America). One night, my friends and I visited a small set of islands called the Erin Islands. There was a festival going on. We were drunk. My friend pulls out a Ukulele and we start singing Start Wearing Purple. The locals took a liking to us for this and joined in a bit. My sister went a year later. Asked about us. The locals said they remembered us fondly for it
Heard this song while reading the credits for the movie:EVERYTHING IS ILLUMINATED. The movie blew me away. Such humor combined with such a serious story. Liev Schrieber wrote the screenplay from the novel and directed it. Absolutely brilliant. If you haven't seen it, you owe it to yourself to do so. As for this song, it wants to make this 65yr old women get up and dance, and to wear purple.
I have been turning people on to this. I say it is infectious, and contagious. They are of greatness in their own rights. Every one is like how do you know who they are.
Creature commandos reminded me of this song. I’m pretty sure I saw this band perform this song live I can’t remember which show but I remember this song and how much I liked it. But it’s been so long.
I totally came here for the same reasons! I heard gypsy music in some of my local tv series, and instantly thought of this song that i havent heard in 3-4 years!
I always felt this should be used in a joker intoduction scene. From.beginning untill just after the drop and something significant should happen between drop and second build up.
Every time James Gunn shows something on Instagram about Creature Commandos, he uses they're songs. First was My Gipsy Auto Pilot, then this one, the last one is American Wedding right now. If people will go to one of these songs, because of that show, i was here first. I don't blame you XD
Many moons ago, I was on Yahoo! Messenger and saw a small emoji of abominable snowman (i think) that sang the lyrics "start wearing for me now!" Then, i forget how, but years later, my brother and I heard this song. And everything made much more sense after that moment. That was 10-11 years ago. This song is still AMAZGIN!
I remember being younger and loving this song when it first came out, 2005ish, my mother thought it was stupid that i love it...fast forward 5 years later and my brother comes and tells me about a "great new band" he found. Fuck you bro! i saw it first! :D
My dad was pretty food friends with Eugene Hutz in Vermont in the 90s back before Gogol Bordello. He apparently still has some demo tapes of unreleased songs Eugene gave him.
a person in school let me listen to his music this was when i was in secondary school , i always wanted to hear this song again, so i ask him many years later since then ive been listening to gogol bordello!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE THEM LOVE YOU GUYS
my mom would blast this song while making everyone dinner (would usually be the last one before its ready) and its one of the only few i can remember very distinctly. im still coming back to listen to this before im done cooking dinner for myself.
This song reminds me of my nanna, shes still alive so not a sob story but she always wore purple, she was gutted she got old, i sing this to her while skanking and she loves it. Im the grandchild you didnt want :D WEARING PURPLE FOR ME NOW!
First time hearing this in "creature commandos" and brought up some memories i heard this from a friend and heard it while watching "hardcore henry" that made me love it from first hearing it
So proud, my 10 year old son asked his friends parents to play this in their car. They are straighty one eighties, and they were suitably traumatised 😂😂

Creature Commandos brought me here, and now I have a new musical obsession.

Watched this music video like 12 years ago and now I'm back because of the show
какоой же угар. почему они именно это выбрали
Same 😭

this song has lived rent free in my head for years. Thanks to Creature Commands for the reminder of its charming amusement
Same!! Heard it first in 2013 and forgot it existed. Ty Gunn.
Saw these guys live with Flogging Molly and they killed it. Creature Comandos reminded me how great that concert was.
Just got here after watching Creature Commandos, James Gunn choice of music is just incredible
Straight up! They used korpiklanni at the end of ep 1 too. Goated soundtrack already
I have been wearing purple for the last 20years. I get lots of good comments which make me feel good. I have just found this song. I am 80years young.xx love it
My lovely older neighbour Lavender only wears Purple.
Personally I don't think I have any pure clothes.😢
You are the meaning of the song
💜💜💜
Had streaks of purple at our wedding 1991
mArried with purple streaks in blonde hair.
I used to DJ weddings and I would always play this song once everyone's had a few drinks, it never failed to get the party going
What a great idea!! Lol
Could be the drink
This is the song we requested to transition from the wedding to our reception, its a great wedding song LOL
That's an... interesting choice for a wedding.

You really have to see them live to truly appreciate. Their energy is off the charts!! So much going on all at once
I agree so much
I saw them last summer and they blew the crowd away. It was my favorite part of Riot Fest, which I really didn't want to go to, but they made the day 5000 kajillion times better.
One of the best nights of my life for sure! London was lit up in a gypsy frenzy!

they did the same thing when I saw them in LA my friend's seen them almost a dozen times and she said they do that all the time
they also updated are tickets to right in front of the stage
James Gunn you bastard, you did it again! Thank you!
This song should have own genre, now on i'll call it DRUNK PUNK !
Just discovered this band on CBC Radio 1. LOVE these guys!! What a fun band! New fave.
I come back to this video every few years. It's always as good as when I first heard it.
Same here.
same. for what seems like a decade

Sorry about that, I just think that everything is illuminated is probably one of my favorite movies
The whole band blends well.
wow.. 16 years.. i used to listen this song when i was in college... made me cope depression.. how could i forget...
My cousin and I got a noise complaint because we were blasting this and stomping around his apartment at 3am. 10/10 would recommend.
I stole a bike and sang this song at 3 am on my way home. It was glorious!
That's hilarious I can just picture that. Perfect! 🤣
You are my kind of people
Mos2.energy 42 can’t stand a thief
How are ya doing one year later? Come rad.
I love unique music. This definitely fits the parameters. Completely forgot about these guys, so glad I’m back on the right track. 😉
Brings me smiles till this day

Creature Commandos brought me to this song 😂
I remember hearing this on James Gunn’s Awesome Mix Vol 0 playlist when GotG first came out. Hearing it in Creature Commandos was a genuine surprise
I remember when this first came out it was the jam. Glad to see. It’s getting a second chance.
Still the best concert I’ve ever been to. Thank you Gogol Bordello

I started to wear purple because of this song. Changed my life. 👍
I love this song! "Everything is illuminated" brought me here!
Thank you😊 Almost broke my brain trying to remember where I heard it... Love this movie. When my husband wants to say No, he used to say "Grandfather said it's impossible"😅
You don't have to be drunk to appreciate the soul of Eugene Hutz and his amazing musicians!!!
Nah but it helps
Best live band ever. Saw them maybe 7 times. Never disappoints!
i've been unreasonably obsessed with purple my whole life. why did i only just find this now???? love!!!

A nutty woman in my hometown only wore purple and even had a purple bike.
I wonder if the lady's name was Florence Zimmerman lol. Let me know if you get this reference.
If this is true, this is awesome! :D
Also how times change, now Twitch Partners are the ones wearing purple, and are acting crazy fro views.
True story???
Liev Schreiber was genius in casting Eugene in, Everything Is Illuminated. I love that this song played over the end credits.
This song is such a trip with nice headphones.
+Kyle Olsen I don't know man, I prefer blasting it out of my cellphone speaker.

The only wrong way to listen to this song is with the volume at 50% or less
ur right !

I went to Ireland on a class trip (originally from America).
One night, my friends and I visited a small set of islands called the Erin Islands. There was a festival going on. We were drunk. My friend pulls out a Ukulele and we start singing Start Wearing Purple.

My sister went a year later. Asked about us. The locals said they remembered us fondly for it

Good to know i'm not the only one
Everything is Illuminated!
I've seen a lot of people wearing purple today, and I immediately thought of this song, and now I'll have to listen to it over and over all day.
I don't mean to be rude, but the way he moves his head in the beginning makes him look like the weasel from The Commandos and it's so funny LOL
this band is friggin INCREDIBLE live! One of the best I've ever seen!
They played at my uni but sadly at the time I didn't know them :(
Saw em with Devotchka in like 2010. Fan-damn-tastic
WHY CANT I STOP LISTENING TO THIS?
Zachary Wolf gypsy magic duh
Zachary Wolf I know what you mean haha
its so bad
I have been turning people on to this. I say it is infectious, and contagious. They are of greatness in their own rights. Every one is like how do you know who they are.
Indeed one of the best songs of the modern times, they're actually be one song that will ring out throw the ages of time
So proud I get to cover this amazing song with the JMU dukes
if you like this you might like my brother’s music. his name is Stu Morris and 'Daisy' is a good song by him.
Hello from 2024! I STILL love this song, and I hope it's the one that carries my spirit into the sky!

one of the best live bands I've ever seen. 1000% party 👍👍
One of the best feelings in the world is rediscovering a song you completely forgot about for 8 years. Check your watch history folks 🤘
I totally came here for the same reasons! I heard gypsy music in some of my local tv series, and instantly thought of this song that i havent heard in 3-4 years!
This band has uniqueness, charisma and talent
I always felt this should be used in a joker intoduction scene. From.beginning untill just after the drop and something significant should happen between drop and second build up.
I miss this period of life. Good times!
Gogol Bordello is one of the top best shows I’ve ever been to. So glad these guys exist😍
Been a fan of Gogol Bordello since 2005 or so and this is still my 2nd favorite song of theirs, fucking awesome band
I can't quit listening to these guys. Everything they do is great but I love the feel of their acoustic sets.
Did you ever see them sing with Madonna live laista bonita pretty damn good
Love this song! Was introduced to it during a DnD campaign. Then watched Everything is Illuminated and just cannot recommend that movie enough!
She is deranged, but so so playful!

Watched these guys at Glastonbury festival years back. Kicked the day off perfectly stomping about in the mud 👌
James Gunn is going through a strange Slavic folk rock phase I see...

Best show I have ever seen The good energy is off the charts.
my mom would blast this song while making everyone dinner (would usually be the last one before its ready) and its one of the only few i can remember very distinctly. im still coming back to listen to this before im done cooking dinner for myself.
My boys used to sing this to me when they were little. I love this so much!
First song I've heard by these guys. Pretty damned good
RIP Steve Albini, this album is one of his producer credits.
this album is self produced by the band. Albini was only recording engineer
Oh shit, I haven't heard this song in nearly forever! Really takes me back to my art school days, big nostalgia trip. TH-cam does it right sometimes.
The best shows I've ever gone to were Gogol Bordello shows, not only are they musicians but they are also class A performers!
I just love this. Loud and lairy!
makes me want to drink and dance and forget about tomorrow
There is no such thing as tomorow!! And never has been.
I have some of the best memories with this song
The smile on m face, right now ...!! How can anyone ever be miserable when this plays...?! 🤣
This song reminds me of my nanna, shes still alive so not a sob story but she always wore purple, she was gutted she got old, i sing this to her while skanking and she loves it. Im the grandchild you didnt want :D WEARING PURPLE FOR ME NOW!
