Helsinki subway opened 1982 and has changed little since. Old subway trains still run but there have been also a newer model since 2001. Actually i don't know if it's the same station than back in 1999 but from the level of dedication i guess it is :)
Most locations here are exactly the same as in the original video. The twerking scene was the only scene we had to film in a different location due to renovations in the ticket hall.
Maybe Helsinki is just smaller city than you are used to? :D Helsinki has 634940 residents. Although Helsinki Metropolitan region has 1.4 million people. There are only 5 million Finnish people overall.
One summer day in 2000 guys placed cardboards down on the ground to make dance floor. They blasted out Freestyler from a boombox and started to break dance. The crowd around them was so excited! It was fire! 🔥🔥🔥
It's lucky that you are also Finnish like Bomfunk MC's so you could easily find the same metro station in Finland where the original video was shot. :D
This particular metro station is Hakaniemi (or Hagnäs, as it's called in Swedish), in case you were wondering. It looks more or less the same as it does in the original video with the exception of the payphones. Obviously, a few things look a bit newer, but even as a foreigner (I moved to Finland in 2010), I had no problems recognizing it.
They did a great job this is one of the best songs ever made I don't care what anyone says this is in my top songs of all time. I'm surprised there hasn't been hundreds of remixes of this song because it's so amazing.
I think this took a lot of time to study and performs all original cameo made on the Bomfunk MC´s original Freestyla... So, I gave one thumb-up and 3 more hahaha... greetings from #Panama
kick-ass performance, videography with love for detail, transition of style works great, the 90s-kid in me is happy AF! proves once again that musical styles DO mix well when care is involved AND that I need to finally move my ass and visit helsinki!
Respekt, I love the Original Song. I am a Kid of 90s. But this is so awesome and good!! My Respekt I love your version too. And the Video ist really cool!!
Guys, you are awesome, the cover is awesome and the passion in covering the video AS WELL is a great Finnish (pun intended) :D Thank you for the awesomeness!
This is cool beyond all measure. I have enjoyed the original song and video since I heard it in 2000. To see you guys do this amazing cover and then to film the video in shape of the original. Just wow, blown away. Love it guys !!!
VÄHÄN EEPPINEN!! :D En tällä hetkellä osaa ajatella mitään parempaa, entä kuunnella metalliversiota "Raka maka fou":sta xDD (...parempaa, mitä voi tehdä housut jalas)

Was playing Steep earlier and thought to myself, I wouldn't mind covering this metal style- now I don't have to! \m/ This was awesome! Btw, did the main keys part not sound any good played on guitar? That's what gave me the idea, I was thinking to start off playing that bit palm muted and slowly bring it in to be the main riff as in the song chorus
Осталось запилить кому нить кавер, где будет какой нить сисадмин ходить со старой клавой, весь такой в очках с бородой и в свитере, не в метро, а в здании каком, где есть офисы юзеров, бухгалтерия, серверная и еще что нить, петь обязательно на русском и можно с матами (но не обязательно), и будет перематывать процесс установки ядра линукса. А так уже почти все кто может кавры на Бумфанка сделали (и ремиксы 2019 и метал и рэп и инструменталки и богпоймичтоеще).
Olli Lee Regardless of what the 2019 version was made for, it was an official remake with Boomfunk MC’’s B.O. Dubb Raymond Ebanks, and Jaakko "JS16" Salovaara involvement 🤓
first band i listened too were them.. in childhood. unconsciously ofc. but you never forget your first;) now i metal head, but Bomfunk helds special place in my heart, The * enemy * music style which was exceptionaly good i even like it :D
Comparing to the original: Worse acting, dancing chick(s) (she got better in second scene (why not six as in original?) but music wise: Awesome on its own and i think this made this version immportal just like Boomfunk's clip.
@@alexxthekidd7351 No, this a cover of the original. The original version is by Bomfunk MC's - Freestyler. This is Battledragon's cover of it with a metal twist to it.
A bad example of Power Metal, Finnish metal and Finnish Power Metal. Bad music and stupid voice clip hoping to get some band publicity via boomfunks nostalgic value.
This year I finally visited that metro station and played both this and the original version in my headphones while watching the trains arrive and depart. One of the best moments of my life :D
NEW Original Battledragon song 'I Can't Be Yours' Here!! ua-cam.com/video/ZpRUi_AIM0E/v-deo.html
Carrion with the Tiistailer.
is this at the actual subway they filmed it in '99?? how fucking cool

Always when I see Helsinki subway (even when I was there) I couldn't see many people there :V And this is weird, since underground carry many people.

Yea, I know it. But It's kinda weird to see empty subway;p
Lol this remake is much better than that god awful 2019 remake, this is much more closer to the original 👍
AAAAAAAWESOME!!!!
Шидевр)))
nuorempana tykkäsin todella paljon bomfunkin biisistä ja nyt elän ne fiilikset uudelleen! Kiitos tästä :)
Epic!!
This awesome I love this song
Mainio cover tämä ja, vot, hitto kun toi mimmi on söpö!
Better than the original, I like it.
O ja!!! Das ist gut!!!!

We have only about five stations(metro) here in Finland(helsinki), it is no so hard.
jandaus However, it looks like it haven't changed much through this seventeen-year gap between the two videos :D
Five stations? Wtf we have like 12
retu äijä

I didn't... Too noisy. - As a Metalhead... I prefer the original... sadly...
same here ! 🤣
@@michaelangeloh.5383 original is better but I lowkey enjoyed this. Ironic thing is I haven't been into metal for years
I still got the rakamaka phone
Hahaha 😂😂😂😂
RAKA MAKA FON

100% agreed
Next could be Sandstorm???
Overdone. K-System - Sound of arena should work great
Did you mean Darude - Sandstorm?
MrMmnngghh of course he mean that
Sherlock.
Fun fact, that Jaakko "JS16" Salovaara who produced Freestyler, was the producer of Darude's Sandstorm
3:39 that dude's smile is epic, he sure is having fun :D
O M G!!
You're fucking genius, the video it's the SAME as original version!!
Great job guyz! \mXm/
Ахаха. Молодцы. Ностальгией повеяло))
Я как понимаю, на той станции метро не сильно что-то поменялось за 20+ лет)))
это та самая станция?
@@saintsflot599 это вообще то монтаж.

AND
that I need to finally move my ass and visit helsinki!
mega respect from Russia!!!
Lol this is finland
Rasse he didnt mean that its from Russia
Да да))
Rasse, Eno Boys he means that he's Russian and he likes the video.
@Eno Boys Russian people just love this song. I can say it's a part of their childhood. A BIIG PART.
Excellent job! Could you please consider making a cover of Eiffel65 "Blue da ba dee?"
Don’t need to u got the smurfs
that's amazing guys :D haha
Респект! Крутой кавер, да и клип отличный! Даже лучше чем рекламный ремейк 2019 года
Во во

As hot as rainy Christmas eve in Helsinki.
Respekt, I love the Original Song. I am a Kid of 90s. But this is so awesome and good!! My Respekt I love your version too. And the Video ist really cool!!
HAHA! 2:19 BABYMETAL!

jukkis6699 🤘😬
Finally a good metal version of this song! Thanks for that! It's really not that easy to find stuff like that from such iconic songs. Keep it on guys!
I think Machinae Supremacy's is great too. Though they only used the original lyrics for the chorus.
Guys, you are awesome, the cover is awesome and the passion in covering the video AS WELL is a great Finnish (pun intended) :D

I don’t know why, but freestyler being a metal song kinda matches
Now this is nice, very energetic.. wouldn't have wanted to hear this cover performed any other way!

This video is better than the official 2019 remake =x Well done!
2019 not official, it's commercial by some cellphone operator, i think

Well that backfired

The kickdrum pattern/timing is fucked
Fucking metal mya favorit song 👍

Maybe Uprocking Beats next ? :)
Everyone’s complaining about the girl, who gives a fuck! Enjoy the video and the effort these guys put in to make it!
Im original clip is rolling the trainset 178 in the clip not the 144!

All we need is a black metal version of this and i'll be happy forever.
Leo Hellscream?
Could of had something great here. Shit vocals IMO...
Marcus Sipho just aligned to your English grammar
It's actually better than original
Freakin Awesome!!!
This is so good. As good as the original. Fantastic work.

Hold the fuck up, ain't that Avicii himself, at 0:50 , or am i trippin badly?

Nice, I knew that Vladimir Putin played piano but he seems to be quite good guitarist too
A bad example of Power Metal, Finnish metal and Finnish Power Metal. Bad music and stupid voice clip hoping to get some band publicity via boomfunks nostalgic value.
Huikeet settii ja siisti videoki :D
I only searched for this cover because there's a 2019 version of the original Freestyler, never knew this existed, awesome nonetheless
Мелодичности не хватает. Часть нот вообще не пытаются даже проиграть. Кастрированная версия получилась, к сожалению.
Зато толстухи есть 😁
@@bookstorage На симпотных бабла не хватило ))
@@TheGaydo Да тут вообще денег ни на что не хватило. Клип снят случайно)))
При всём уважении к металлу, это какая-то дичь.
