I remember the first time I watched this. I was 14 years old and my dad had put it on. I really loved the film and this scene was the best. Then I watched Holy Grail and decided... Monty Python is the king of comedy.
During the Falkland Islands War, when the destroyers HMS Sheffield and HMS Coventry were sunk by Exocet missiles, the crewmembers who made it into the water sang this song while they waited for rescue.
@@vladomne672 do you mean that music was and still is being played or that he still bears the name of brian?...if your answer is the one where the music is still being played at his funeral that would mean that the funeral is still being held...so that would mean that his body has been above ground in a coffin for a minimum of two years and that they are still in the process of putting him to rest...but if your answer is the one about his name still being brian that would be a lot less fugged of an answer
Sorry George..Nathan is my cousin...he doesnt actually think about what hes saying.Theres no per verbial filter.Ill put it this way...he was the kid in school who would blow bubbles through his milk straw,and then choke on the bubbles :( hes my special boy!!!
If Eric Idle can be remembered for one thing, it should be for writing and singing this extraordinary song. It is utterly hilarious and brings perfect closure to "Life Of Brian."
As I'm getting closer to the "primrose path to everlasting bonfire", this song makes me so cheerful, so I think it should be played at my funeral whenever that will be !!!!
@RockManLP_Radio yep. Not to mention this movie almost did not get made ‘back when humans could still laugh at each other’. No studio would fund it, and it ultimately only got made because several musicians came forward to provide personal funding. And after its release it got banned from countless cinemas. OP doesnt know what he is talking about.
I was sick at home this Easter and I saw this movie on Bravo. I haven't laughed so hard in years. I don't care if it's blasphemous, I feel so much better after seeing this movie. Laughter really is a home remedy! Thank you Monty Python ahha!
that comment was 7 years ago, he's probably dead. but you are correct, there are no funny brits left. PC made them extinct. jokes are illegal in the UK now.
I posted this on fb a few years ago and someone got butt hurt and flagged it as offensive. Got banned for 48 hours! Somehow that made the clip even funnier to me. Lol
lways Look On The Bright Side Of Life Monty Python Some things in life are bad They can really make you mad Other things just make you swear and curse When you're chewing on life's gristle Don't grumble, give a whistle And this'll help things turn out for the best And Always look on the bright side Of life Always look on the light side Of life If life seems jolly rotten There's something you've forgotten And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing When you're feeling in the dumps Don't be silly chumps Just purse your lips and whistle That's the thing. And always look on the bright Side of life Come on. Always look on the right side Of life For life is quite absurd And death's the final word You must always face the curtain With a bow Forget about your sin give the Audience a grin Enjoy it it's your last chance Anyhow. So always look on the bright side Of death A Just before you draw your terminal breath Life's a piece of shit, when you look at it Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true You'll see its all a show, keep 'em laughing as you go Just remember that the last laugh is on you And Always look on the bright side Of life Always look on the right side Of life C'mon Brian, cheer up Always look on the bright side Of life Always look on the bright side Of life Worse things happen at sea you know. I mean what have you got to lose? You know, you come from nothing You're going back to nothing. What have you lost? Nothing. Always look on the right side (I mean) of life What have you got to lose? You know, you come from nothing You're going back to nothing. What have you lost? Always (Nothing) look on the right side of life Nothing will come from nothing ya know what they say? Cheer up ya old bugga c'mon give us a grin! There ya go, see! Always look on the right side of life (Cheer up ya old bugga c'mon give us a grin! At same time)
I'm really not gloating, but I listened to the Hallelujah chorus, myself. And read this: www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/57253/everyone-sang To some of us it was a thing of great joy. I don't think many Remainers understood why, but that's life..
well my dads asked me to have this played at his funeral and so hes getting it done on the 1st October and sod anyone who thinks its in bad taste its what he asked for and he wants everyone to have some fun and not be sad that hes no longer here and anyway he will be pissing him self up there looking down at us having such a good time
Christians who feel offended by this scene should recognise that choosing a cross and Jesus’s tragic painful end as a symbol of their religion …. doesn’t give them the Right to claim crucifixion as solely about Christian sufferance … many other Groups and movements, other types of people were killed in History by crucifixion. This song is for them too …. a parable even …that says … even in your darkest moments …. if you can focus on the brighter side of life … you can get through incredible hardship. …. even transcend death possibly?? Well done, Eric Idle … for having the vision to write this song with such poignant lyrics …. and put it in this scene where it would have such a major impact on World consciousness.👏👏👍
During the lock down the Thames was deserted and a working boat went under Blackfriars bridge the crew were playing this song. it really gave us hope in a time of uncertainty.
a year ago on the day my boyfriend broke up with me, I was watching this film afterwards. It made my previous crying into laughter at that moment. this song really perks you up despite the shit life throws at you.
Such a great satire. Always cheers me up. Wish this song would be played on my funeral (ofcourse if it will be held) and not to make people remember my life, but to hear this song and think about their's life. Anyway, I say people can do with my dead body whatever they want (even if that means playing football with my head).
1:09 look at the background, there is some staff-member walking between the crosses in regular clothes. Also, look on the guy on the cross in the background, right behind Gilliam. His hand clearly isn´t attached on the cross but floating in the air. 1:47 pause there. You can see a woman with a fake beard - probably one of the women from the stoning scene 2:12 from here on you can see her again - it looks like they have put the platform too low so she can´t stand on it like the other guys
I remember the first time I watched this. I was 14 years old and my dad had put it on. I really loved the film and this scene was the best. Then I watched Holy Grail and decided... Monty Python is the king of comedy.
I saw those two in opposite order, and I completely agree
I was 13 and in opposite order
The best in my opinion is Biggus Dickus.
Bro Monty python is the only good comedy that's still relevant in today's world to an extent.
Also heres a PING so you can find this jolly video again
This was My beautiful daughters song when she was battling cancer.I sing it myself now and remember her cheeky grin.So missed
So sorry to hear that. :( Be strong!
During the Falkland Islands War, when the destroyers HMS Sheffield and HMS Coventry were sunk by Exocet missiles, the crewmembers who made it into the water sang this song while they waited for rescue.
Epic, mate! Thats the brittish humor at its finest.
“Worse things happen at sea, you know”
I want this played at my funeral.
Good idea. Might do as well.
You're not alone; I read somewhere that this is the most requested song for one's own funeral in the UK.
How would you know this was being played if you're dead?
Apparently it's common in Britain. Lol
Hahahaha
This was played at my granddads funeral, his name is Brian as well
You mean was...
@@vladomne672 do you mean that music was and still is being played or that he still bears the name of brian?...if your answer is the one where the music is still being played at his funeral that would mean that the funeral is still being held...so that would mean that his body has been above ground in a coffin for a minimum of two years and that they are still in the process of putting him to rest...but if your answer is the one about his name still being brian that would be a lot less fugged of an answer

Wait until Biggus Dickus hears of this.
aways wook on de bwight side of wife
See if Incontinentia buttocks hears this too
Big Gus dik kus?
*Snickers uncontrollably*
“Worse things happen at sea you know” never fails to make me laugh.
Hms sheffield giving you the evil eye 😄
played this at the old mans funeral , took 2 years to play it after that,
but great song for a good man
thanx dad
If Eric Idle can be remembered for one thing, it should be for writing and singing this extraordinary song. It is utterly hilarious and brings perfect closure to "Life Of Brian."
In Norway this film was banned because of Blasphemy. Until we did a protest of this.
Good job protesters.
Is there an official religion in Norway?
Protestant.
whoa are you serious?
Taliban-ish evangelical Christians tried to ban it in the US too.
This is the best cure for depression I've ever seen
As I'm getting closer to the "primrose path to everlasting bonfire", this song makes me so cheerful, so I think it should be played at my funeral whenever that will be !!!!
No way they could make this film today. Back when some humans at least could still laugh at themselves and each other.
@RockManLP_Radio and the conkfaces (get the reference)
@RockManLP_Radio yep. Not to mention this movie almost did not get made ‘back when humans could still laugh at each other’. No studio would fund it, and it ultimately only got made because several musicians came forward to provide personal funding. And after its release it got banned from countless cinemas.
OP doesnt know what he is talking about.
Actually, this film faced a lot of backlash from christian groups when it was released. It was even banned in some countries
People can still take a joke. You're just looking in the wrong places.
Sweet Jesus... I've finally found the soundtrack to my life!
:-)
Lenka Bloom 0
me too
Funny part of the story is that Brian was born the same time as Jesus and was actually at the stable next door to Jesus
Sweet Brain...
makes me smile everytime
Hugh Mungus right! ill do you for that!
You've got it, Brian! Now, whistle!
Ha ha, that guy at 1:15 just walking through the desert and coming across a bunch of crucified men singing.
Never noticed that before!
How many times did you have to watch this to figure that out
1:08 actually
This was played at my dad's funeral, never laughed and cried so much. What a song to pick :)
148 people aren't looking at the bright side of life.
The cold embrace of death is the brightest light of all.
156 now ;(
another 3 in the last 2 weeks
169
175
They played this song at the end of my parents' funeral on Tuesday. it really is a great funeral song!
I was sick at home this Easter and I saw this movie on Bravo. I haven't laughed so hard in years. I don't care if it's blasphemous, I feel so much better after seeing this movie. Laughter really is a home remedy! Thank you Monty Python ahha!
no one will ever be funnier than the brits
Nah just Monty Python, there aren’t that many funny brits left
that comment was 7 years ago, he's probably dead.
but you are correct, there are no funny brits left. PC made them extinct. jokes are illegal in the UK now.
one of the most played themes at funerals in Britain
Been a member of a bowls club for 21 year's so that's plenty of funerals it's popular here in Australia to
This song is just perfect. It totally made my mood go up.
Love this song - The Life of Brian was the Monty Python team at its best
Best comedians ever with deep wisdom *smile
How could anyone dislike this song? Is so cheerfull :D
"Life's a piece of shit, when you look at it." Words to live by. Maybe.
Is it wrong that Easter makes me think of this song? I want this played at my funeral.
+Jamie Taylor
There's no way Jesus would have had multitudes of followers without a decent sense of humor.
I posted this on fb a few years ago and someone got butt hurt and flagged it as offensive. Got banned for 48 hours! Somehow that made the clip even funnier to me. Lol
+Jamie Taylor are you married? if not marry me.
andrew Happily divorced actually. I highly recommend it. Lol
Jamie Taylor
hehehe
This song always cheers me up when I am down! (:
oh the monty python films.... SIMPLY BRILLIANT!
1:39
Parasol attached to one of the Crucifixes.
XD
It's bright outside. You can't blame him.
A fair point. A bad sunburn can make you wish you were de-oh...oooooh...
:P
i'm pretty sure the guy is holding it
I never noticed that till now
lways Look On The Bright Side Of Life
Monty Python
Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
And
Always look on the bright side
Of life
Always look on the light side
Of life
If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle
That's the thing.
And always look on the bright
Side of life
Come on.
Always look on the right side
Of life
For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain
With a bow
Forget about your sin give the
Audience a grin
Enjoy it it's your last chance
Anyhow.
So always look on the bright side
Of death
A Just before you draw your terminal breath
Life's a piece of shit, when you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true
You'll see its all a show, keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you
And
Always look on the bright side
Of life
Always look on the right side
Of life
C'mon Brian, cheer up
Always look on the bright side
Of life
Always look on the bright side
Of life
Worse things happen at sea you know.
I mean what have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing
You're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing.
Always look on the right side
(I mean) of life
What have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing
You're going back to nothing.
What have you lost?
Always (Nothing) look on the right side of life
Nothing will come from nothing ya know what they say?
Cheer up ya old bugga c'mon give us a grin!
There ya go, see!
Always look on the right side of life
(Cheer up ya old bugga c'mon give us a grin! At same time)
+
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you
Whenever I feel down, or if I’m having a bad day, or if something’s bothering me, I sing this song. It always makes me feel better. :D
Oh...that's right...Easter is on the way...time to start posting this again! Such a wonderful message!
I Will probably put this on when the bright mushroom cloud shows up 😂
"I said to him, 'Bernie, they'll never make their money back on this one'"
from a distance, they look like telephone poles.
It isnt bad taste at all! Very clever in fact and a great message from the passed to those who loved him/her.
Brexit brought me here.
Blah lol get rekt
I'm really not gloating, but I listened to the Hallelujah chorus, myself. And read this: www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/57253/everyone-sang
To some of us it was a thing of great joy. I don't think many Remainers understood why, but that's life..
Back in my freshman year, I was in Men's Ensemble, (I still am) and we sang this song at our end of the year concert. Good times.
love this song -- this is my "It's A Wonderful Life" every Christmas
Brilliant. You can't be in a bad mood after singing this song.
Awesome, I needed that, thanks!
Something special about a guy who can make people sing along with him when they're about to DIE SLOWLY
man, that choreography
this is my favorite song of all...makes me smile when i´m down !!
thank you for creating such a amazing song Monty Python ...it helped me so much in the hard times.
"Lifes a piece of shit.. When you look at it"
You know, this may be a humorous video, but it is such a great message, and honestly inspires me.
well my dads asked me to have this played at his funeral and so hes getting it done on the 1st October and sod anyone who thinks its in bad taste its what he asked for and he wants everyone to have some fun and not be sad that hes no longer here and anyway he will be pissing him self up there looking down at us having such a good time
I always sing this to myself when I'm annoyed at something. Brightens up my day no end.
This song makes me extremely happy
Why cant you like this twice?

But transphobia is not ok right lol
this is literally my favorite song.

This song actually makes me happier.
During the lock down the Thames was deserted and a working boat went under Blackfriars bridge the crew were playing this song. it really gave us hope in a time of uncertainty.
Totally playing this at my funeral whenever that is.
I can't get enough of it, it makes me happy ...
In the immortal words of Jim Carrey: “Wait till my Father hears about this.” 😂
Monty Python 🤗
I have a shitty job, I work with assholes but I sing this song over and over all day long to keep my spirits up
a year ago on the day my boyfriend broke up with me, I was watching this film afterwards. It made my previous crying into laughter at that moment. this song really perks you up despite the shit life throws at you.
I watch this show at Christmas eve every year.
Great message. Always look on the bright side of life guys. :D
This song always makes me feel better. It's like a million doughnuts and 20 glasses of milk.
My favorite movie of all time :D

I love this song played at my funeral
\,,/,😁\,,/
ive been up here for 5 years and they just turned me the right way up
This is by far my favorite song of all time
As hilarious now as it was when I first saw the movie 33 years ago!
Very good song, helps me see the silver lining in ways I could never imagine. And now it's an olympic anthem.
Whenever I'm sad this cheers me right up!
We came from Nothing we go back to Nothing
What have we lost in the mean while ?
NOTHING !
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.
i love this movie and song makes me laugh every time, he talks like i do lol
so glad they chosed this song for to be the part of closeing of 2012 london games.

Notice that CLeese has a robe on? It was cold and he refused to get up there without it. Everyone else was freezing! LOL
this is gonna be my funeral song!
Loved it that TVNZ played this over the late night weather forecast tonight...
This song should be dedicated to the crew of HMS Sheffield, who sung this song as their ship sank in the Falklands War
Why does anyone not like this. It's so awesome
My cheer up song along with the universe one too :-)
3:19 “That should give you enough.” You’ll have to turn up the volume to try and hear that.
Such a great satire. Always cheers me up. Wish this song would be played on my funeral (ofcourse if it will be held) and not to make people remember my life, but to hear this song and think about their's life. Anyway, I say people can do with my dead body whatever they want (even if that means playing football with my head).
My father funeral was today. I guess I have to listen to this song for a while.
Made my day!
Thank you my dear friend Stella for sharing this video.;D
...☼...
This song allways makes me feel good, wen im really bad, ;] im proud of my country.
