@@Сергейану may want to dig a little deeper into musical genres for some context and better appreciation of this song. Yes, it's hip hop with a whole lot more. Also yes, I am dumb too.
Thank you for letting us know about the show "Sabotage". I was born late 70's so I never have seen it let alone known about it. Now the video makes so much more sense. When the video came out I always wondered why they were dressed up like '70s cops. Now I know again thank you. It's an awesome video.
When my family FINALLY got cable TV back in 1994, this was the very first MTV video I watched in my living room.....and the rest is history. ICONIC and TIMELESS.
@@davidtruong9367 Agreed, but Donald Trump will be President again, something we can be excited about. Not being funny friend, I grew up 1 hours' drive to the Canadian border, we got AM radio.
@@scottleppard288 Thought you were joking 🤣 but I get it, EVERYONE had cable TV and I didn’t see shows, music videos, movies that everyone was talking about until I was a senior in high school, but by that time, my mind and focus was on other things 🤣
With my now 4 year old daughter we discovered this song would help her calm down and stop crying as a newborn. We have a 5 day old son and it worked again! I’m ready to preach the gospel of the Beastie Boys to new parents!
I used to play this at maximum volume in the car when my daughter was a baby and it calmed her straight away. Now she is older she loves jumping around to it!
Get d F out your kids really calm down when this plays it's all good 👍but weird song to calm anyone down just saying take it easy love from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪❤😉
This could be a fitness video. You could get a hella great workout from it ! Or else get groin pulls, sprains, torn ligaments, bruises, bumps, road rash from too much contact with pavement. They might have used stunt doubles.
@@FromThe36thChamber HMMM..... Maybe they should write a script, fully fleshed - out, & make a full length feature out of this. DON'T put Michael Bay in charge, unless you want explosions every 5 minutes.
That's what I just thought. Back in the 90's when this was on MTV I thought it looked very intense and impressive. Now I see a couple of boys having the time of their life.
So my father was a Cop until the day he died and he never really liked rap/hip hop but when I showed him this music video on MTV all those years ago when I was a kid, he couldn't help but smile laugh and he truly enjoyed it 😂 he especially loved the BADASS guitar riffs!!! R.I.P. MCA and thank you for giving me that small opportunity to share with him that little special moment enjoying your video! BEASTIE BOYS 4 LIFE!!!!
I love it when music transcends age and generation gaps, and this video has created a special moment for you that you treasure @Johnny Begood. Likewise I still remember the first time I saw this video, just love the action and the intensity of the music to match it - which is why I just watched it again. They dress like it's an over-the-top parody but set up each scene and then charge around like its a full on cops versus criminals showdown.
and Intergalactic and the wicked video recorded in Tokyo at the train station. Loved how the people were just passing them and not making a scene. If there were people dressed like that and behaving like that elsewhere it would be a different case...Just LOVE IT
Given the context when Star Trek is set it would be considered classical since the movie is set 269 years after the song was released. Song came out in 1994, Star Trek Beyond is set in 2263.
This video was epic when it was released and it still is. I just wonder where did MCA find that Canadian jacket at? I can’t believe 12k voted this video down. This is as dope as it gets.
matschgi000 always ! Old school New school, Up school Down school, it's still rock and roll to me. But yeah, lately I've really been on an old school bender. but I love it all (ok, most of it) metal rap hip hop new wave old wave punk heavy metal alternative folk folk rock electronic trance house fusion reggae (more hard core). yet, there is nothing quite so cathartic as blasting Beasties when you're feeling below your bottom of bestial bottoms
I still can't get over how authentic this looks to a 70's style cop drama intro LMAO Beastie Boys were the best.....funny, smart and had good instincts....
There's a difference between what people self produce on TH-cam now and the years before TH-cam. TV and internet are very different. Not saying anything is better, but understand the time and influence of a music video during those times.
There has never been another band like the Beastie Boys. They are 100% true and unique and invented their own genre and sound. They need to be inducted into the Hall of Fame quite frankly. The amount of gaps that they bridged with their music and the amount of generations and the amount of cultures can't be taken for granted.
100% true and unique ? lol oh yeah, they're a perfect blend of punk and hiphop, rebellious and subversive. why they turned off the comments on Girls though ? maybe they were long ago, now just washed up and getting on stage to virtue signal on their earlier works lol, scawy to be cancelled :(

Yea it's a classic music video man that much is true! How do the Authorities deal with the mean evil intimidating drug projection smelly fruitcakes, all for the crust of a dollar even of their of their kind dude???
I was 14 when this came out in January of 94...I turned 15 a few months later and remember hounding my parents to get this cassette tape as one of my birthday gifts. I loved watching this video on MTV ( back when MTV actually was a good channel to watch to see music videos and Beavis and ButtHead and interviews with Marilyn Manson. I'm now 43 and counting..... Time goes by so quickly and before you know it the ride and game is over.
@@patrickbrinkmeier1858 yep, 43 now and I remember this vid playing a huge part in our high school years, so if the date's right then that was Year 10 and GCSEs weren't until the following school year and this was a massive doss year following the tricky trials of settling-in the year prior (fucked up old system with middle schools for me, so Year 9 was the first in high school). Beavis & Butthead! Never had MTV myself but Channel 4(?) showed B&B. What a time to be alive!
I feel like Spike Jonze's direction for this video consisted of "Drink this, smoke this, put this on, now let's go goof around in LA." Absolute masterpiece.
@Paul Steinwall Both are truly a masterpiece, and both were ultra low budget. Turn Down for What was actually cheaper to make, since The Daniels were paid virtually nothing to produce the whole thing and did everything themselves.
@Paul Steinwall Huh?? Turn Down For What is just vulgar for vulgarity's sake. It has no point. Sabotage OTOH is flat out creative genius set to a MUCH better tune, it's coolness personified.
definitely not even in top 10 dude. and dont get me wrong i love these guys. but cmon man. theres some great videos out there. michael jackson alone has 10 music videos better than this

Some years ago when I was a kid my dad showed me this music video to me and my friend. We could not stop laughing. But the song is pretty good too (sorry for my english not being so great, I am from Sweden).
+Jama M Jama Growing up in the 1970s, almost every cop show that started at 9:00pm or later was like this, including the cameo of the celebrity starring as himself. That's why they made the video, in fact. As an homage to those long gone days.
I'm Russian and he definitely was my favorite :'( I still can't believe it... So sad :( But I'm glad (sort of) that his last role was in that amazing movie. He will always be remembered!!!

@@patrickbrinkmeier1858 yep, 43 now and I remember this vid playing a huge part in our high school years, so if the date's right then that was Year 10 and GCSEs weren't until the following school year and this was a massive doss year following the tricky trials of settling-in the year prior (fucked up old system with middle schools for me, so Year 9 was the first in high school). Beavis & Butthead! Never had MTV myself but Channel 4(?) showed B&B. What a time to be alive!
The good ole days of music videos. Miss the real MTV.
12 years later and this comment section is still active
*This does put a smile on my face : )*
Just thought the same thing 🤙🏼
Yup, it'll be more active now that the trailer on rick&morty used this as a bgm.
@@jcruz804 indeed g that trailer was fire cant wait for s5
This song came out in '94 bro. Remastered in 09. Kids these days
@@smallaxe4935 I am pretty sure he was reffering to the video upload year, not the song's release year. Think before you become a smartass...
RIP Adam “MCA” Yauch (August 5, 1964 - May 4, 2012), aged 47
You will be remembered as a legend.
I can't believe that in a few months it will be a decade since he passed. RIP MCA❤❤
Died on my younger sister’s birthday R.I.P he will be missed
@@TRPD-hb3ui Oh man, didnt that just fly. i remember it like yesterday telling everybody at work when it happened.
I remember the day my Dad told me that on the way to school in like 1st grade sad
Qq
Still to this day one of the sickest tracks n coolest videos, beastie boys are timeless!
Is that classical music ? 🖖🖖
Indeed
No question!
it's intergalactic planetary.
Best video ever made.
They were so ahead of their times. I just watched their movie/documentary yesterday. These guys are legendary.
Its an amazing documentary!! love it how this song slams those ass head music bosses who stole 1st album money!
@@JM-cf8zywhere can you watch this
@@ruin3397apple tv or freemovies2021.com
Ahead? They did music when music was the most awesome ever overall.
Not ahead of their time.. they were extremely popular.
I love classical music.
Futurama reference?
under-rated comment fr
Why? Are you into effing dead people too?🤬🤢🤬📬🕳️📫🤸
Just asking, for reference purposes I'm not 12 😡 angry men about whether ya got ur period Judy Bloom.
I love classical music videos.
I’ve always loved when the track stops at 1:38, and the guitar riff kicks back in at 1:41. So unique and cool.
So good, also I’m pretty sure that’s actually the bass
Was amazing live in '97. Longer pause with lights out. Place went nuts when MCA brought the bass back.
Typically known as a "breakdown."
But awesome, nonetheless 😃
and then, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
That's the bass :D
This is the hardest jam ever, dope to the capital D.
Why did they not air this episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine
Guud call !!! I’ve always thought Brooklyn Nine-Nine borrowed from the Beastie Boys for their title sequence.
This can be the intro of Brooklyn nine nine
👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣
Didn’t they play part of this song in one of the episodes
@@lightgraph4060 that's why everyone is asking about that? 🤔
I miss the era when music videos were like a medium of art that artists and directors tried to compete/one up with new concepts.
Check out the A$AP Forever video. Some of the best editing and cinematography I've seen in a music video in a while.
@Jt Money Yeah, but it is like comparing friendships in real life to Facebook friendships. One is far more interactive and memorable.
You still find this in the Black Metal Szene.
@Carl E. What on Earth are you talking about? There have only ever been about three videos at this standard.
I love how they take a donut break during the rest. That's some top level humor right there.
It's a TV commercial timeout, snack food intake session, film intermission style break in the action.
The donuts should have gotten credit .😁
Also, they did the "throwing back the badge"... Was it mike d, the chief tho? Who are they turning in their badge to?
30 years ain’t what it used to be
It's not just saving Yorktown but saving it in style
omg this is so true
+Hanna Azzahra like that scene made the movie for me it was so much bs but it was sooooooooo awesome
Just a wave of cgi aliens exploding to this song
Anthony White So what ...it was awesome
so true
I feel like Spike Jonze's direction for this video consisted of "Drink this, smoke this, put this on, now let's go goof around in LA." Absolute masterpiece.
Yeah it's kept the test of time too.
His name is Spike Jonze.......
If nothing else, the boys had a good time making all their videos.
Yes
💯💯💯
Shoot i know i would have
for sure 😽
Ultimate creativity from those guys. Love all their videos.
This is one of the greatest music videos of all time, Period! And it’s a fact!
Still one of my favorite classical music songs of all time.
Star trek reference
🖖🏻
@@ethanjaceabad4592 Thank you Mr. Spock.
One of the best scenes in the last twenty years!
I cringed until I remembered the reference
@@ethanjaceabad4592 could be futurama as well.
Rest in peace MCA, it's been 8 years ago from today
Dam time goes by, it just felt like yesterday.
Rip in Pace tutti OFF ♥️🪷♥️🪷🌺🌺💓💓❤️🌷❤️❤️💧❤️💞🌸🌸🌸
Rip in Pace tutti OFF ♥️🪷♥️🪷🌺🌺💓💓❤️🌷❤️❤️💧❤️💞🌸🌸🌸
Possibly the greatest music video of all time.
@Paul Steinwall Both are truly a masterpiece, and both were ultra low budget. Turn Down for What was actually cheaper to make, since The Daniels were paid virtually nothing to produce the whole thing and did everything themselves.
@Paul Steinwall Huh?? Turn Down For What is just vulgar for vulgarity's sake. It has no point. Sabotage OTOH is flat out creative genius set to a MUCH better tune, it's coolness personified.
Intergalactic
definitely not even in top 10 dude. and dont get me wrong i love these guys. but cmon man. theres some great videos out there. michael jackson alone has 10 music videos better than this

This looks like a music video that was really fun to make. R.I.P. Cochese and Sir Stewart Wallace.
Can we all stand united that when this song was popular we we're all lucky individual to have experienced it?
Possibly one of the best videos of the 90s
This must have been so much fun to record.
Make some sequels to this !!!!
/watch?v=hNjbx_-BtP8
omg it's shake from athf hi
Jus' HAD to be....!!!!
*to film
Always makes me think 911 and they were calling it
"Let's Make Some Noise"
It then saves Starbase Yorktown... Most badass scene in Star Trek... Ever
Even funnier when yorktown starts blasting it
WWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! *Explodgasm*
I hardly enjoyed that
Because you hate anything happy or fun or cool.
Still not as cool as captain Picard
Fight For Your Right, Sabotage, Intergalactic... truly the freaks of the industry
Digital Underground?
@@jmichaeljohnston4937 velvet underground?
Sure Shot
Oh the best three. Intergalactic is so cool!
Don’t worry, I’m used to it
this video is fucking gold. i wish this movie actually existed.
Some years ago when I was a kid my dad showed me this music video to me and my friend. We could not stop laughing. But the song is pretty good too (sorry for my english not being so great, I am from Sweden).
+Jama M Jama Growing up in the 1970s, almost every cop show that started at 9:00pm or later was like this, including the cameo of the celebrity starring as himself. That's why they made the video, in fact. As an homage to those long gone days.
Yaz Stone i know they are parodying those cop show cliches including the freeze frame when their name pops on screen. its perfect
Arch Stanton chill out mate
Jama M Jama I'm cool man/bro
I never realized just how much MTV edited this video when they showed it ... their loss as the full version of this is GREAT!
Got the full version after 12:00
2024 and still listening this masterpiece 😍😍 and its vidclip, totally awesome in soo many levels
Timeless classic 🤘
No doubt
Still my Ring tone....
@@andrewoakeshott8931 Classical music ( Star Trek reference )
Is this the greatest music video of all time or what?!
Possibly the best music video ever made. 🤘🏼
Michael G Best music video EVER!!@@!
in high school the foreign english teacher asked us to do a english video. this is the main influence eheh, course Cops...
Your lack of knowledge is disturbing
just you wait mikey
Along with Another Brick in the Wall
My head nearly exploded the first time I heard this song! Easily my favorite Beasties tune. So funky, edgy and rhythmic all at the same time...
Best music video ever made!...there could be a whole movie spin-off from this that would be #1.
+MrAnguswangus Yep, this shit works on so many levels it's unreal!
+MrAnguswangus They should have totally made a movie out of this. Love that 70s Cocaine Cowboy retro flavor.
+MrAnguswangus They did make the movie… it's called 'Starsky & Hutch'.
They should include a late 70's porn scene with a mustache and full bush ...
+Rob Lycar More like The Naked Gun.
i drove my dad wild with this one all those years ago.RIP dad.
Better 3 minutes then 90% of all the hollywood movies in the last 14 years.
McCoy: “Is this classical music?”
Spock: “Yes I believe it is.”
That's such a corny part of that movie
what else then classic
Ohh I turned this shit up, anytime Kelvin timeline had this jamming!
I like the beats and the shouting.
@@tiberiuswise it more like rhymes, but maybe that is what you have in head, tc
Lovin' the new HD quality!
Another great update to an amazing song
Best high energy track eva.......
Greatest video of all time! How it didn't win at the VMA's for best video is all you need to know about award shows.
A vintage clip portraying even more vintage vibes.
Such class
stop calling people´s cultures vintage
The mid 90’s ain’t vintage
Retro is 20 years and vintage is 40.
1:04 will never not give me chills, it’s just a perfect little breakdown
Love that there’s a bunch of us in 2022 still bumpin the beastie boys
Live long and prosper, Anton Yelchin.
I miss him
+aGENtP_34 me too, he was my fav
I'm Russian and he definitely was my favorite :'( I still can't believe it... So sad :(
But I'm glad (sort of) that his last role was in that amazing movie. He will always be remembered!!!
Last night I watched ST Beyond in an iMax theatre with the knowledge this was his last Start Trek movie..., but hell, this number gave me goose bumbs!! Space the final frontier, Anton, we will miss you!
The Teek amen
This is the coolest idea for a video EVER!!!! Once again, Gen X with the COOLEST!!!!!!
