MrNickTube1 Think of it as the first widely known Mario fan fiction or a precursor to the sea of flash cartoon parodies and homages to the franchise that began popping up in the early-2000s.
Despite the hate and rotten views...i enjoyed this classic film and the song is fire...thanks George Clinton, and i enjoyed the two actors playing Mario and Luigi!
this is a Was Not Was song. i had no idea george clinton covered it for the movie with the alternate lyrics. Not surprised he did though considering all the involvement in early 90s Hollywood movies he had. He was in all kinds of stuff as cameo appearances.
There's plenty of fun music still being made that doesn't take itself overly seriously, and just has fun. Weird Al comes immediately to mind, and I know he's not the only one out there still making music. ^-^
I'm 24 years old, smoking weed & watching crazy awesome 90s music videos from crazy shitty 90s movies that I was, for some reason, fascinated by, as a kid... life is weird.
for people who didn't get to live the 90s this has to be one of the greatest movies to remind us of all the fun the 90s had. the twin towers in the movie remind you how worry free we were versus today's years. I was only two years old when this movie was released.
Despite the negative criticism I enjoyed the movie and while it's not completely like the game but it did the best they could and i welcomed it, and the song kicks ass very funky.
I actually like this version better than the original Was (Not Was) version. I first heard a kid-friendly version of it in the VHS "Disney Sing-Alongs: Flik's Musical Adventure", and that's how I first learned of this awesome song. At least the Mario movie is best at something here--best Walk the Dinosaur cover.
Why is this slapping now? Loving this gem - I love coming from the future just to remember such a specific and memorable moment this awful film made on me. But the music, fucking legendary.
This is better than the original. I'm not an expert on the genre of music, but it seams to more wholeheartedly embrace funk rather than trying to sound pop-rock for terrestrial radio consumption. The video more wholeheartedly embraces the silliness of the song and is much more creative with both its original and B-movie stock footage. The chick is genuinely hot and can really dance unlike the females from the original video. She also apparently does backing vocals.
What do I want from the movie? Well Bowser to be something "Bowserish" for one. Personally, I never pictured the bad guy from Waterworld as Bowser. But that's just me.
"Walk the Dinosaur" is a song by Was (Not Was) released in 1987, from their album "What Up, Dog?" The music video featured four scantily clad 'cavewomen' dancing while a Flintstones-style TV played clips from Daffy Duck and the Dinosaur. Modern people danced to the song during the "Everybody kill the dinosaur" part. The song reached No. 7 on the US chart in 1989, two years after its UK success and became the band's biggest hit single in their home country. According to an interview with co-writer Randy Jacobs, it "was an infectious sing-along with a Flintstonesque video that probably got played on MTV way too much. But even that seemingly good-time anthem had a dark side. [...] The song's about nuclear Armageddon. It became a dance (anthem) because of the video.
First time I listened to it in my Cassette Super Mariop Bros ost .. tho this song is great, I think I prefer original. This is best cover version... Now lets boogie !!
i like the super mario bros movie and this version of walk the dinosaur and when I first watched the trailer and when I saw the part in it where toad get turned into a goomba it fracked me out
this song is the song that is the theme song from the movie "superm Mario Bros" which was the first character when the Nintendo NES was invented by a Japanese in the decade of the eighties
If I knew that the Goombas were capable of getting down like this, I wouldn't have smashed them when I played Super Mario Brothers. I would've gotten my groove on with them. But oh well, I didn't know...
i got the movie on dvd, i still love the movie but cant beleive i accepted it as a mario film when i was a kid concidering the obvious problems lol, aah well a amn can dream for another movie one day...
omg, you're right.. i... man... how did i think he was dead? i've thought he was dead for years, i even used to tell people i was really glad to see him in concert before he died...
@Radiobed lol, yeah i was thinking the same thing. i wonder if there's an actually line dance to this song. i know when i was a kid watching this movie, we made dances for this song.
Walk The Dinosaur Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom Boom boom acka lacko boom boom It was a night like this forty million years ago I lit a cigarette, picked up a monkey, start to go The sun was spitting fire, the sky was blue as ice I felt a little tired, so I watched ‘Miami Vice’ I walked a dinosaur, I walked a dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur I met you in a cave, you were painting buffalo I said I’d be your slave, follow wherever you go That night we split a rattlesnake and danced beneath the stars You fell asleep, I stayed awake and watched the passing cars I walked a dinosaur, I walked a dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom Boom boom acka lacko boom boom A shadow from the sky, much too big to be a bird A screaming, crashing noise louder than I’ve ever heard It looked like two big silver trees that somehow learned to soar Suddenly a summer breeze and a mighty lion’s roar I walked a dinosaur, I walked a dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur I walked a dinosaur, I walked a dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Open the door, get on the floor Everybody walk the dinosaur Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom Boom boom acka lacko boom boom….
>John: Open the Door You open the door. Your hallway sprawls out in front of you. >John: Get on the floor. Against your better sense of judgment, you lay down perfectly flat on the floor. >John: Walk the dinosaur. THIS IS STUPID
does ANYONE have an mp3 of this? (not a youtube rip, like off the CD?) i used to SMB soundtrack on cassette when i was little, and id listen to this track every day!
haha, my brother saw this song recently and going to play it in the list of songs at his wedding! did it used to be one of the theme songs for that dinosaur cartoon back in the early 90's?
![Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee) [Gabry Ponte Ice Pop Mix] (Original Video with subtitles)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/68ugkg9RePc/mqdefault.jpg)
omg John Leguizamo has been in two movies that was affiliated with a cover of "Walk the Dinosaur" (Mario Bros. Movie & Ice Age lol)
Maybe that’s his favorite song.
Perhaps it is?
Disney owns both
If he had nickels for everytime this has happened he would have two nickels but it's weird it's happened twice.
This is fhe best Mario bros version that worthy of a video game
I never knew there was such a thing as too much acid... Then I opened the door, got on the floor, everybody walk the dinosaur.
I loved the Super Mario Bros. movie and it's sci-fi Dystopian semi-Cyberpunk re-imagining of the concept. The set design was fantastic.
the super mario bros. movie could be awesome, if they didn't try to make it more profitable by putting MARIO on it.

AlwaysLookCool 729 it’s online
I'm in this club- the movie was really cool for all the reasons you've stated.
The set designer was the same guy from Blade Runner.
This song suddenly popped up in my head the other day and it took me forever to remember where I've heard it before! XD
Despite the hate and rotten views...i enjoyed this classic film and the song is fire...thanks George Clinton, and i enjoyed the two actors playing Mario and Luigi!
Forever I’ll remember
this is a Was Not Was song. i had no idea george clinton covered it for the movie with the alternate lyrics. Not surprised he did though considering all the involvement in early 90s Hollywood movies he had. He was in all kinds of stuff as cameo appearances.
Awesome song from a fun and highly entertaining Mario Bros movie.
I must have seen that movie a hundred times when I was a kid.
me too, still holds a place in my heart
I don't want to hear anyone say that nothing good came from the Super Mario Bros. movie ever again.
There's plenty of fun music still being made that doesn't take itself overly seriously, and just has fun. Weird Al comes immediately to mind, and I know he's not the only one out there still making music. ^-^
This movie was good. I mean it had a good cast like Bob Hoskins, Dennis Hopper and John Leguizamo I enjoyed it.
I'm 24 years old, smoking weed & watching crazy awesome 90s music videos from crazy shitty 90s movies that I was, for some reason, fascinated by, as a kid... life is weird.
i hope 10 years later you're now straight and not doing that nonsense.
When I watched the movie, I didn't realize this was a newer version of an older song.
There are so many songs that are new versions of old songs..
It's. A bad version of a great song.
@@TheMochan555 Honestly, this was the first version of this song I heard, and to me, THIS is the song. Love this version.
Yeah This Was Not Was Not Was.
This version is better imo
i dont know but i like this movie.
Its a great movie and i watched it so often
Tom F I agree, I LOVE it! I personally think it's pretty underrated. Playing this song at my wedding. Both me and my fiancee and I love it!
My favorite movie also.
for people who didn't get to live the 90s this has to be one of the greatest movies to remind us of all the fun the 90s had. the twin towers in the movie remind you how worry free we were versus today's years. I was only two years old when this movie was released.
What if we have this on the sequel of 2023 Super Mario Bros? It would fit as a nice Yoshi's entrance theme.
I’d be in tears of joy at the theaters , like those ppl who passed out at Michael Jackson concerts
This version is just as funky as the original...love the groove.
I mean... it's George... it's nothing but the funk.
it's not bad. the guitar bits are better i think. the music itself is definitely superior but the vocal and lyrics are better on the original.
They should get this song and John Leguizamo in the Mario movie 2
Didn't know this existed, I always knew the version by WasNotWas......Hard to choose my fav......
Ol George still got it and is still continuing to do it . Go my brother do you!!!
If I ever become a teacher, I'll show my students this just because it's that awesome.
Did you become a theacher and showed your students this? Because that would have been awesome.
Great song for a decent movie. Love the 90's

can't... stop... watching.
The sax in this song reminds me of John Lennon's "Whatever Gets You Through The Night". :)
We need to bring Funk music back!
It's good because it's George Clinton. 'Nuff said.
1993 was the year of the dinosaur!
How did this not win a Grammy?
The effects and editing back then was so fabulous
This song gives me super powers.
Even though the movie flopped, I love it and this song is great!!!
Someone 4k upscale this now.
I loved this when I was a child
The Super Mario Bros. movie is so goofy but so much fun! ^__^
George Clinton: everyone’s favorite rainbow-haired, crack smoking grandpa.... (and a total genius)
holy god the 90s.
*giggles* Bob Hoskins won't talk about the super mario bro's film at all
Why is this slapping now? Loving this gem - I love coming from the future just to remember such a specific and memorable moment this awful film made on me. But the music, fucking legendary.
the real Super Mario Bros. movie
so cheesy, so 90's, I love it!
I love this song. Super Mario Bros forever!
Hahahaha, this was also in IceAge II.... I knew I remembered this one!
cant help but like this song

True
Super Mario Bros Movie, best viewed HIGH
who still listening in 2042?
I'm not big on the movie but the soundtrack kicked butt!! I still own the CD.
I'm starting to feel the same. And this version sounds better than the original version and Queen Latifah's.
What do I want from the movie?
Well Bowser to be something "Bowserish" for one. Personally, I never pictured the bad guy from Waterworld as Bowser. But that's just me.
everybody mario fan ever: THAT IS NOT A GOOMBA!!!

Good song, good movie! Thanks for posting!
First time I listened to it in my Cassette Super Mariop Bros ost .. tho this song is great, I think I prefer original. This is best cover version... Now lets boogie !!
Super Mario brow Brought me here
I'm going to dance to this at my wedding.
Up until 2008, this song was the only thing I remembered from the Super Mario Bros. Movie.
not even just music videos. Look at 90's commercials and early 2000 commercials compared to now.
Hell nah, let GeeZee walk the dinosaur while shining his flashlight of truth and justice...
it's all fun and games till my mum did open my door and catch me doing the 'Dinosaur'
i like the super mario bros movie and this version of walk the dinosaur and when I first watched the trailer and when I saw the part in it where toad get turned into a goomba it fracked me out
:) i love this song and the movie!!
I just snagged the original Was (Not Was) single of this on LP!
this song is the song that is the theme song from the movie "superm Mario Bros" which was the first character when the Nintendo NES was invented by a Japanese in the decade of the eighties
GO LONG LUIGI! ;)
This rocks. I wish I could say the same about the movie itself though
Mario Bros. The movie. XD
thanks for the upload ^_^
If they ever do another Mario movie or even a smash bros anime, I think it’d be awesome if they include this song somehow.
They will actually lol
If I knew that the Goombas were capable of getting down like this, I wouldn't have smashed them when I played Super Mario Brothers. I would've gotten my groove on with them. But oh well, I didn't know...
i got the movie on dvd, i still love the movie but cant beleive i accepted it as a mario film when i was a kid concidering the obvious problems lol, aah well a amn can dream for another movie one day...
George, the hair!! Wow how much time to dry your hair? Not me, military hair is best for my head. 5-7-2022
George Clinton is so awesome-looking.
If you looked up the word "badass" in the dictionary, you will find a picture of George Clinton.
It should be, "It was a night like this, 65 milion years ago".... If you know what I mean....
Great...Just about as good as the original!
0:45 4 the epicness
I thought that song was created for ice age 3
Mario & Luigi The Mask referenced this version.
Oh wow, my childhood...
I still have this movie on VCR. I'm gonna watch it. xD
0:04
- "I'MA FIRIN' MAH LAZOR!"
omg, you're right.. i... man... how did i think he was dead? i've thought he was dead for years, i even used to tell people i was really glad to see him in concert before he died...
best version
I can't believe this song with some many covers done, is originally from the awful Mario bros movie!! My mind is blown.
@Radiobed
lol, yeah i was thinking the same thing. i wonder if there's an actually line dance to this song. i know when i was a kid watching this movie, we made dances for this song.
Walk The Dinosaur
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacko boom boom
It was a night like this
forty million years ago
I lit a cigarette,
picked up a monkey,
start to go
The sun was spitting fire,
the sky was blue as ice
I felt a little tired,
so I watched
‘Miami Vice’
I walked a dinosaur,
I walked a dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
I met you in a cave,
you were painting buffalo
I said I’d be your slave,
follow wherever you go
That night we split a rattlesnake
and danced beneath the stars
You fell asleep, I stayed awake
and watched the passing cars
I walked a dinosaur,
I walked a dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacko boom boom
A shadow from the sky,
much too big to be a bird
A screaming,
crashing noise louder
than I’ve ever heard
It looked like
two big silver trees
that somehow learned to soar
Suddenly a summer breeze
and a mighty lion’s roar
I walked a dinosaur,
I walked a dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
I walked a dinosaur,
I walked a dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Open the door,
get on the floor
Everybody walk the dinosaur
Boom boom acka lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka lacko boom boom….
These head bobbing Iguanas are so fucking adorable. 😍😍😍
>John: Open the Door
You open the door. Your hallway sprawls out in front of you.
>John: Get on the floor.
Against your better sense of judgment, you lay down perfectly flat on the floor.
>John: Walk the dinosaur.
THIS IS STUPID
I want this song played at my funeral.
BAHAHAH I USED 2 LISTEN 2 THIZ AT DAYCARE!!!!
>openeth the door -
>move my body to the area suited for festivous dancing
>everybody walk like ancient reptiles

I loved this movie, and Ice Age 3!
George Clinton is awesome, saw him in concert last year, keeping that funk alive. :( unfortunately he didnt walk the dinosaur
@MrFinnJohnson Me i Loved the Super Mario Bros Movie. And I love this song. "It was a night like this 40 million years ago!" Luv it
Open the floor.
Get on the door.
I drunk too much alcohol.
