Director: "David hasselhoff, how much effects do you want?"
David Hasselhoff: Yes
@@alexjacob3735 Me too! See my comment above under username Gigi. OMG this video......LMFAO!
The fact that this has been uploaded only in 240p acutally benefits the quality of that video.
When I first saw this 240p was all youtube could do, and it took an hour to load. Worth the wait.
This isn't green screen. The Hoff was just so powerful at the time, reality refused to function around him
I'm pretty sure he got a hold of the power infinity stone at the time......and maybe the reality stone as well...
OMG This is hilarious. Did Hoff look at the final edit, and say, "Yeah. This is exactly what I wanted."
+TheSuburban15 he probably did it deliberatley in order to convey a point about the music/video industry perhaps...
2:24 - Two Hoffs singing at once! I wasn't prepared for this kind of greatness!
I honestly can't hate this video; it's like we, as the human race, haven't evolved enough to appreciate it in all it's glory.
I am german.
It's in my genes to love David Hasselhoff! 🇩🇪🦄🍒🍻
Don't let anybody fool you: this was actually a watered-down version of what Hasselhoff made for this video. The production budget was 3.4 trillion dollars.
This is one of the music videos of all time.
I need to come here every year to make sure this treasure never disappears. How much joy it brings..
first time i've seen this since 2006 and boy, did it put a smile on my face.
After seeing David in GOTG VOL. 2, this video all makes sense to me now.
I just now stumbled across this. How have I never seen this or heard of it before? It's the greatest thing that has ever existed. God bless the internet!
You can´t edit a music video on Paint.
David Hasselhoff: Hold my beer....
For a music video this must have had a big budget to have Hasslehoff visit all those places!
+M M r u stupid? he's obviously right there if you look properly. don't treat me like a fool m8
For most parts, green screen was used. In other parts, he visited the places.
Some people really don't understand sarcasm/irony. On a completely unrelated note, it really is impressive that he did so much traveling for this video!
I remember seeing this 14 years ago on youtube,...its aged gracefully.
Is it only me or is this the best thing ive ever seen
Contrary to popular belief, there are no special effects of any kind in this music video.
Well a little known fact is that some of the things weren't real but like 97% of it is
2:18
David watch out behind you!!! Oh my god he can't hear us he's too hooked on a feeling
Whoever directed this video was a genius. This is one fine piece of art.
Kids today with their techno music...You should enjoy the classics! Like Hasselhoff!
+Cool Knight hey there's supposed to be another d in there.
that's what she said.
One way or another, no matter how the years pass, I always find my way back to this song and this video... and this feeling.
David actually looks mighty fine in this video... 🖤💜🖤💜🖤
Me at the beginning: This video is quite weird
Me a few minutes later: I f*cking love it!
I had no idea until I watched this video that I do drugs.
Frankincensed. cop's took me in and made me watch this to convince me I was I was doing drugs. It worked
A truly epic music video.
This video is like abstract art.
Fredrik Ljungkvist Abstract Art? So something you have no idea what the hell it is but it intrigues you?
12 years later and I still smile every time I see this classic jam I always smile
This video is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. No matter how many times I watching, I literally laugh out loud. And I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the song itself. I like it better than the original.
Great voice. Handsome man.
Sense of humor.
What's not to love! ❤
There can be no doubt this is the greatest music video ever committed to tape.
When you get a green screen for your birthday.
There is nothing on this earth that I want more than all of the unaltered green screen footage used to make this video.
Director "fine we can sneak a dachshund some where in the back"
Hoff "No, three giant doggos in the foreground".
This video is aging like fine wine!
This is the best music video in existence and you can't tell me otherwise.
The day I discovered David Hasselhoff's incredible music, my life changed forever!
How can anybody dislike this? Thos people have never seen true art. This video deserves more attention. It's a gem!
I cannot believe that I have found this video again. This was my absolute favourite video as a kid and now I feel so nostalgic and fulfilled! Thank you David Hasselhoff for creating the greatest video on youtube.
the world needs a 4k remaster of this.
My eyes will never forget the beautiful masterpiece I have just witnessed.
this is officially my favourite video on the world wide web
Geoff, Gav, and Andrew have single-handedly ruined my youtube algorithm. My recommendations will never be the same -_-'
This is pure gold and hands down the best thing I've ever seen.
This is an example of "I have a friend who can do the video and is cheaper"
Mom I want professional video production!
Mom: We have video production at home
Video production at home:
I don’t know about that sir. This year is a true classic. I don’t think it could’ve been done any better. I think it’s absolutely hysterically perfect just the way that it is.
Not long after I joined FB (12+ years ago) I saw someone post this video; I watched it, then I watched it again. Then I loathed myself. Today I was struck with the urge to watch again. And I’m good for another 12 years.
I cried with laughter when he did a flip over the mountain
imagine having earphones on and everyone looking at you weird. yes that's me lol
+Charlie Nicklin Flying on the clearly unmoving bike while a serial killer hopped in and out of the picture did it for me.
As kids we mimicked all the dance moves (including the flying flap scene) while dying of laughter.
I still think this is one of the greatst music clips of all time.
This is THE best video I have ever seen. we cant get enough of it. the creativity and talent. always brings joy to our lives. thank you David. well done
My life is now complete. I always liked this song but this here is something special y’all.
I can never unsee this. WTF? Give me some of whatever he’s on. Exxcellent.
This video is like Interstellar, a lot of shit happens that you can't explain.
Razvan Dumitrescu interstellar is aproved by the scientific comunity (except the part inside the blackhole)
Razvan Dumitrescu interstellar is aproved by the scientific comunity (except the part inside the blackhole) ...I confirm !
This is the best music video I have ever seen. Thanks you, David - you are humanity's greatest treasure.
@@justinlanger7109 It's amazing. It's the only music video I know of that was filmed in one take by a pedestrian and uploaded without any editing. He was just walking by the Hoff and filmed this, then Hoff paid him for the rights to use the video.
It's like the movie _Birdman_ combined with a nature documentary.
The best video in the UA-cam history.
Misread the title as David Bowie covering Hooked on a Feeling, but this is infinitely superior
Your eyes must be absolute capital G Garbage if Hasslehoff was mangled and contorted in Bowie, but yes, damn right this is very superior to a David Bowie cover of Hooked on a Feeling
10/10 editting.
+Dario Schröter There is no greenscreen. All the stuff Hoff is doing in the video is real!!!!! :D
LOVE THE HOFF. And he still kicks ass to this day. Hell.. I'm 40 now, working out and he would still kick my ass in abs. But he keeps his fame for two reasons. One is because he has a good sense of humor about himself. Two, he is out there doing awesome 70s/80s retro parodies and serious music that we can't get enough of. Damn.
Thanks gavin for not knowing this video so I can be reminded to watch it again
Literally my favourite video of all time. This cheers me up when I am down. Makes me laugh when I need it. Plus let's face it - it is catchy tune and he does a pretty good job singing it. The video is just so 👩🍳💋 perfect!
Guardians of the Galaxy VII looks great
He’ll need to change his name to Zardu Hasslefroff first...
Ha ha, when I saw Guardians for the first time I was getting odd reactions from the audience for laughing when this song came on.
David Hasselhoff, a German Hero who ended the Cold War.
David hasselhoff has an aura that is unmatchable
Why I've never seen this masterpiece?
Why masterpiece? Look, here's everything! Your favourite actor and singer from 80s and 90s, a solid bit, favourite song from 60s, best edit ever made...
DAVID HASSELHOFF NUMBER 1... I NUMBER 1 HASSELHOFF FAN... HE SO DREAMY... BEST MUSIC SONG EVER.. SO T OUCHING AND EVOKING MANY EMOTION....... 5/5
This might be the best video on UA-cam.
You just can't unsee this video.
And you keep coming back to watch again.
I feel like creed Bratton from the office was the producer for this.
I love it
To all the 3787 people who gave a "thumbs down": Please keep in mind, that no special effects, or computer manipulation was used for this video. The Hoff did it all by himself... #dontHassleTheHoff
Always loved this song both the blue suede version and this version and Im glad they left the ooga chaka chorus in there, that gives the song unique sing along character. This video might be the strangest ... yet funniest video Ive seen in a while, but it also makes you feel happy after watching it! Thats why I dig it !!
David Hasselhoff has always been the coolest dude ever and he's still got it.
This has so much meme potential
Wow these effects are simply stunning. I can't how phenomenal the special effects are in this music video.
This song inspire me to be a better person.
The budget for this video was actually $4 million.
Worth it.
I dont need weed to see interesting things
Why do drugs when I'm high on believing that you're in love with me?
First video I saw on youtube, same music video but different upload in 2005. You never forget a video like this.
I literally send people to this to make them feel better. Every time I watch this I smile
I unironically loved this song in the 2000's. Used to listen to it all the time to get pumped up before a party, event, etc...
I think this has just become one of my guilty pleasures.
Man,every year I have to revisit this absolutely classic. And Tommy Wiseau is jealous of that green screen! "Oh HAI, Kitt!".
This video has stood the test of time on UA-cam.
I'm in the drunk area of UA-cam again.
Hello? I seem to have lost my way... David Hasselhoff flying............
This video should take its rightful prominent place in the Smithsonian archives so future generations can revel at its brilliance.
Fun fact: It's still REALLY better than 90% of modern 'cool music'.
Video&song of my childhood..... Always takin' me back in the times when everything was fine and my uncle was alive....
The greatest music video ever made.
This is most amazing and joyful version of this song!
If you look really closely, it's actually a greenscreen. He's not actually doing a lot of the things he seems to be doing
LOL
***** It's a lie. Everything you are looking at actually happened. Especially the motorcycle that moves without rotating its wheels.
No shit sherlock...
Oh.. I thought it was real... I'm disappointed
Fuck you. It's the Hoff we're talking about here. That shit's real yo.
