I remember there being some kind of cool songs because this was around the same time.
Wasn't this around the same time of the Godsmack army commercials? - Yeah.
Yeah, maybe a little earlier?
War was a big song in there.
War by War.
No, War by Bone Thugs-N-Harmony with Henry Rollins, Tom Morello, and Flea.
What?
Another One Bites the Dust, Small Soldiers Remix, Queen featuring Wyclef Jean.
Oh my god.
Love is a Battlefield by Pat Benatar and Queen Latifah.
Look up that one.
Let me, let me see if I can, if I can just get the audio from this.
I don't know if it's gonna kill the stream or not.
That sounds incredible.
I've been, like, I've talked about, I think I talked about it last stream.
I'm just ruling the Quentin Tifa right now.
I don't want, I just don't want it to live in single.
It's good.
It's a good song.
Of course it's good!
Quentin Tifa has no bad songs!
People forget.
Oh, no.
They have the soundtrack on Spotify, but it's just the originals.
It's not the covers.
Oh, that's fucking bullshit.
Man, I wonder... Let me see if it's on... It's on YouTube?
Honestly, I don't know if I can play YouTube while I'm doing this.
I don't think it likes doing that.
Okay, Queen, Latifah, Pat, Benita.
Man, the another one bites the dust is something amazing.
Uh. - Uh huh.
Benatar.
Benatar.
We are young.
Benatar.
Heartache to heartache.
We stand.
Stand strong, baby.
No promises.
No demands.
Don't start tonight.
Won't be night.
Love is a battlefield.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Let's go with him.
Crazy!
Wow.
Wow.
Oh, that guitar!
- Can't nobody separate us, except us.
And it them been a few to come along and test us.
All the envy us, they love to stress us.
Even under pressure against us, it's just us.
Everybody wanted to be us when they see us.
We was the type to be all over the country.
- That guitar.
- No matter where we was, only we could beat us.
We got a strong love, but we need trust.
- It's so good.
- We need that trust, trust.
Only thing that can't beat us.
You know what I'm saying?
It's a crazy thing that works so well.
I love, I love that beat.
That fucking drum beat under it.
That like halftime drum beat works so fucking well.
That like groovy, oh man.
Like, there was a point in time where you could not mail it in for a soundtrack.
You had to have original songs on it.
And, like, honestly, this would have been mailing it in because they probably would have, like, you know, doing a cover is easier than making an original song.
But, I mean, this has got to be, this is up there with the Diddy Pink Floyd.
Dude, okay, no, Diddy Led Zeppelin.
Diddy Led Zeppelin, sorry.
No, that's okay.
I just want to do, just importantly, because Led Zeppelin is like famous for never licensing their songs.
You know, not like the Beatles, not like the Rolling Stones, not like the Who, like every other classic rock era band just like gave out licensing.
Led Zeppelin, like notoriously difficult.
They're on this soundtrack.
What is it?
Communication breakdown?
Where is it?
Yeah, okay, there it is.
Because you hear that in the movie.
You hear what the girl in this Small Soldiers movie literally says, I'm not like other girls.
Because I listened to Led Zeppelin.
Sorry, she says I listened to Led Zeppelin.
True.
And the boy says, wow, you're not like other girls.
And I screamed in Ani's ear.
Because, literally, she was like... Because Ani was like you when you guys met!
Ani was like mad.
Like she had a right to be mad because of how loud I screamed.
Because, she says, I listened to Led Zeppelin, and then I said, oh, you're not like other girls, I guess.
And then he said it.
He said it, and I flipped.
It was so good.
That's awesome.
Yeah, they're on this soundtrack.
Do we want to hear the Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Henry Rollins, Flea, War?
Oh, absolutely.
Okay.
Oh, this is tight.
Because this is like, this is like, um, Rollins Band era, Henry Rollins.
You know?
This is a good time.
There's a music video for it.
I don't think I can put it on screen though.
Oh my fucking god.
Oh my god.
Holy shit.
I gotta try and put this on screen.
Yeah, and he's on screen.
I gotta try to put this on screen because you guys won't believe it.
Give me that.
All right, this is worth downing the video if it happens.
I wonder what it would be like to sail on an ocean of the bitter tears of those who lost their loved ones to a stranger.
If you're just listening to this, Henry Rollins is like a diesel mechanic on a steamship, and he's got dirt all over his face, and he's holding on to like two bars.
You know, he's got his hands up, and he's just like staring intently at the camera while he says, I wonder what it would be like to sail on an ocean of the bitter tears of those who lost their loved ones to a stranger.
How many stadiums could you fill with all the people killed in war?
Now you look me in my eyes and tell me what it's good for!
Oh my god!
And as he's saying this directly into the camera, you get footage of the head small soldier's mouth moving like he's the one delivering this anti-war preamble to war by war.
