Now people are scared of shouting "Free Bird" in concerts because if the band actually plays it a brawl might suddenly erupt
Strangely enough, that's why I want to yell it in a church.
@@innagottadavida8538 was that a kingsman reference
@@inyoface5456 Yes.
@@innagottadavida8538 Brodie finna be smacking a priest and somebody’s grandma at the same time 🤣🤣👌🏽
And the band has to continue it or else they are immediately smited by god.
I love how Cap throws the guy into the ceiling and the song stopping as if he just broke the stereo playing it
I love it when movies intergrade songs into their fight sequences... when punches match beats.... like a beat down is like someone beat boxing but with blood and fists
@@_TripleChanger-Achilles_ Baby driver is a great example 🤩
@@mikaelmonten3786 no way did I literally see this comment while scrolling past Baby driver on my TV😱😂
@@_TripleChanger-Achilles_ haha nice! Edgar Wrigt is a master of incorporating sounds and music into his films, "Hot Fuzz" is an amazing example!
@@mikaelmonten3786 Baby Driver is a perfect example. God is it a great movie.
I love the fact that the music was muffled when the POV moved outside the elevator. As if Captain America was just radiating Free Bird from his body while fighting.
Cap radiates Free Bird energy
No it was clearly from the ceiling, as it stopped when he broke it
I mean obviously it's coming from the shield what else do you think vibranium does it's Bluetooth compatible
@@remi_dadudenice.
It's the Doom Slayer effect.
"Why do I hear boss music?"
"Captain America is here."
"So it's a Boss Fight...stock up on potions."
"...?"
3:16 The new IRS agents trying to notify me about my unpaid taxes
keyword "new" lol
"notify"
new 💀
"Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?"
Such a combination of confidence, politeness and badassery.
They do an amazing job making him be nerdy and old fashioned, in a genuine manner. He is truly out of his time. Then, they remind us that he is Captain F'n America, and you will not beat him.
If Cap asks you if you want to get out. You take the opportunity.
@@jago668
Eh. I'd trust Cap to take it easy on me more than Hydra.
But agreed.
i'd be the type of guy to say yes
@@theshadowjack6741 I'd pretend I forgot something and run away before the doors closed.
6:22
Henry Cavill reloading his biceps gets me every time i watch this scene
This is the best comment I’ve ever seen. Thank you for this. “Reloading his biceps” 😂💀👏
What movie is that?
Mission Impossible 6
So what’s going on in this scene, because it’s a three-way melee? If Cavill wanted Cruise dead he’d be helping the other guy not also beating the tar out of him.
@@Phoenix8492 haven't seen the movie so honestly not sure what the context is, I've only seen the fight clips
Free Bird's solo is one of the best in rock's history
Facts 💯
5:26 love how free bird abruptly stopped and was perfectly synchronized by the tray hit
having a root beer float while watching Captain America kick ass to Free Bird is the most patriotic thing i've done in a minute
A true Mug American

Give this man the highest of high fives!
A true patriot
Why can't marvel have choreographed fight scenes like the winter soldier anymore, it's been a while since I've seen a fight look that good in marvel
Did you not watch Shang Chi?
@@ninjanibba4259 I like Shang Chi but the the choreography isn’t even close to as good or impactful in my opinion
Now they use cgi for almost every fight. Kinda ruins the impact in my opinion
the scene where spiderman gets his ass kicked by green goblin in no way home is top five mcu fights imo
@@Cpt_Katsuragi compared to other MCU fights, Shang Chi feels as fresh now as Winter Solider and Civil War did in those times, so that’s why people like them
I love how most of these involve Captain America and Winter Soldier, because honestly, their choreographed fight scenes are the most satisfying in MCU
yes!! plus in the lore the winter soldier WAS brainwashed and trained to fight as a supersoldier for 70 years so ofc it looks good
1:27 that punch aligned perfectly
Bro that's true
Everyone, please say "Thank you" to Kingsmen for that wonderful fight scene and how inspiring it is
thank you
There's no scene from Kingsman in this video?
@@WiperTF2 this music free bird is already used in kingsman
thank you kingsmen
@@WiperTF2 🤦♂
It used to be "Free Bird" for every music concert.
Now it's "Free Bird" for every fight scene.
Why not both?
@@ohnobro1424 under rated comment
As it should be. We need more videos with Free Bird accompanying it. More fight scenes. Replacing video game boss battle themes with Free Bird.
@@Aubreyeatscarpet what?
@@ohnobro1424 he said "Now it’s “Free Bird” for every rat spinning."
4:31
What every kid thinks they’ll do in a fight
That whole scene makes me want to watch the whole series he kicked everyone’s ass with a lunch tray😳😳
This is one of those rare instances where I'm able to watch something I've already seen before and just by adding "Free Bird" it makes it feel like its the first time I'm seeing it. Nice job!
Yeah, I think it's fair to say that "Free Bird" makes most fight scenes a million times better.
I think you mean everything.
Eh, it’s not bad.
But have you heard Fate Of The Unknown?
Should be called “The Kingsman Effect”
@@zen8704 for reals not hating on this video or anything but it works best in that film cuz of the meaning of the song in relation to what that character was dealing with
@@Cryscorde Just listened to it. It ain't Freebird.
I think it is impossible for anything to be more American than Captain America beating up nazis to free bird
They're not N.A.Z.I.S they're hydra agents completely different than Nazi's
Lmao
Lmao
‘Merica!!
🤣
And the fact those Nazis are all in the US government and military is what makes it *really* american
6:17 I love it how this part of the scene almost feels like pro wrestling, with each combatant waiting and collecting them self while the other fights
6:22 Henry Cavill reloading his arms is always a must-see
Idk if it was intentional but when the Winter Solider shot Captain America’s shield in sync with the song I had to take a minute to collect myself. Great video.
Haha nice, I actually didn't notice it until you pointed it out.😂👌
Haha that’s great.
He also hit his shield in sync at the beginning of the song
Timestamp?
@@CarbonDioxide. 1:42 is what I believe is being referred to.
The truth is that it does not remain because the fights in Marvel (like the ones you put) are very choreographed and seem more like a demonstration, in the case of Kingsman, the violence is so chaotic and excessive, that the song coordinates itself but because they have pretty much the same vibe.
And in fact the violence in that scene is what it is: pure violence.
I believe that the true thing which makes the kingsman fight isnt the actual chaotic energy of the action, but how the camera "follows" every action, as for example, the camera falls in sync as harry dives at a man, moving up in sinc with harry stepping along the pews, and more. I probably explained this really weird, but what this choice of camera work does is makes you almost feel like your in the fight, and I believe in the video of above, the only action scene that truly works like the kingsman church fight is the captain america and winter soldier fight, as the camera work is very similar, and includes the slight shaky cam that the church fight employs to add energy while still having each action visible.
@@spinosaurusaegypticus8341 preach brotha
@@spinosaurusaegypticus8341 Thats what they call a one-take, one-shot or a "oner"; a single continuous shot through a single camera (often multiple takes digitally spliced together). It makes it so the audience feels like they are looking at the real thing in person rather than a movie and it really elevated that scene considering the violence and fighting happening. I agree the random actions end up naturally lining up to the song compared to the more choreographed fights shown in Captain America which struggles to line up more often because its much more rigid.
@@arforafro5523 oh thats not what i meant, i know what a one shot is, i was referring to how the camera follows the characters actions, not how the camera never cuts, although both contribute wonderfully
Lmao I’d say the kingsman fight had WAY more choreography going on. You have like 18-30 people all fighting each other and in a way to make the prosthetics look good.
That shield stomp 1:17 might be the single coolest scene in the Avengers movies.
That little volume clog you used at 0:39 was some pristine editing! Loved that immersive kind of editing
It took three days, a church full of stunt performers and a lot of hidden cuts to film that "one shot" fight scene in Kingsman. It is a true masterpiece of rampant, chaotic violence set to a nearly chaotic piece of music. Marvel fight scenes are just not wild and out-of-control enough to truly capture the reckless ferocity of Freebird. But this was still fun to watch.
There are several scenes in Baby Driver that sync the action to the music perfectly as well. Edgar Wright takes his choreography very seriously.
I totally agree with you. Those fights seemed too slow paced and the initial (where the guitar solo starts) was a bit off in those clips in my opinion. Clip 4 and 5 were the best suited clips for this song in this video, even clip 4 the best.
Shang chi has a few decent scenes.
funny you mention edgar wright. chris evans played lucas lee in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, which was directed by Wright ::)
The church fight scene in the film was cut as apparently some scenes were too graphic - I can't be the only person who wants to see the uncut version!
The sync with the electric guitar part is honestly really impressive in a lot of these scenes
The sync on the star of the solo for the mission impossible clip is our if this world
Petition to change the title to: free bird is captain america's main theme
Signed
The one after Cobra Kai was BADASS! I genuinely could not tell who I was meant to root for and it just made it that much better because anyone could have won
I Completly agree I had no clue who to root for
Not your typical elevator music.
Not you typical elevator ride.
Honestly Winter Soldier might be my favorite Marvel film. It actually feels like a spy thriller movie and is so… *tense* compared to practically every other MCU movie made before or since. It has a maturity to it that I really enjoy.
Winter Soldier imo is the best Marvel movie
Probably because people aren't quipping every other minute like in just about every other MCU movie.
Plus Cap gets a chance to demonstrate the actual Super part in his Super Soldier title
Winter soldier is great for sure but don’t sleep on civil war, it’s just as good
3:16 that timing with the song is impeccable!
5:38 bathrooms during break be like:
This song would be perfect for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3!
I did that, but it got taken down. Redoing it when it comes out on digital
I fought Maliketh, The Black Blade in Elden Ring today while listening to this song. His second phase started right at the beginning of the solo.
It was absolutely glorious.
That is awesome dude
Based as heck
Just by reading this comment, I’m just imagining how many cool moments there are that doesn’t get recorded.
0:39 dedication to detail here... song volume decreases when fight out of focus, earned a sub!
Winter soldier had some of the best fight choreography the MCU has ever had
yes!! plus in the lore the winter soldier WAS brainwashed and trained to fight as a supersoldier for 70 years so ofc it looks good
Man, winter soldier was so underrated. The fight scenes were so raw and well choreographed, i love when Bucky does the ol' witcher switcharoo with the knife
Edit: Bhahahahahaha and when he just heaves Steve through the window to get the dude outside lmao
I just noticed that throw of Steve. I can't remember if I noticed that watching the movie.
Winter soldier was never underrated
I never noticed that throw 😂😂
"Sorry officer, the speed limit doesn't apply when Free Bird starts playing"
Winter soldier really is one of the best Marvel movies, isn't it?
Honestly, this is a great illustration of how good action editing is rhythmic and good action direction resembles music in the way that it emphasizes phrases, suspense, and resolution.
It also helps that action choreography frequently uses a time signature (most often 4/4) to help keep performers’ movements synch up, just like dance.
Still that Kingsmen Church Scene is iconic
Captian America VS. Winter Soldier is still probably the best choreographed fight scene in the entire MCU. I really enjoyed rewatching that.
The way Henry Cavill throws that guy through the mirror so casually is so bad ass
Brilliant touch during the Captain America fight lowering the music when it cut to the agents watching in a different room.
Someone should make an action movie with only Free Bird as the soundtrack, on loop for the whole movie, just to see if it works.
1:35 the spin that made Lego Cap's spin
I watched this just for the fight scenes. Was not disappointed
This actually made me remember how amazing Winter Soldier still is. Definitely the top Marvels movie. I can't stomach the others.
That quickly became a pretty hot take. I agree with the part about Winter Soldier though
You can't stomach Civil War or Avengers 1? Winter soldier has solid action scenes but the plot is pretty wacky.
r/unpopularopinion
Winter Soldier was a beast and a real threat. Is a shame what they did after this with Bucky. He is such a joke now.
@@Geral454 I mean, it makes sense he’d be less ruthless in later movies since he’s not brainwashed anymore
2:32 fits so well, they pick up the pace, so does the solo
I guess I can say, I can watch this all day
DOOM Music: You took everything from me
Free Bird: I don't even know who you are
I love how you ducked the song's volume whenever there's dialogue. makes it blend so seamlessly as if it's the original. very nice!
5:54 lmao this was just perfect
The guitar kicking in when Cap turns the tide of the fight be resisting the magnetic cuff was perfect.
0:20 Almost every blow seems to somehow sync with the music…
It's all about cinematic timing and the time signature of the song, it's just two very well made things fitting together because they are well made.
personally, i think it fits more so with 1 vs many style fights. The chaotic, hectic, rushdown the 'hero' feel those give lend themselves well to the high pace of the song
Nothing beats the original lol... Definitely what u say describe kingsman church scene
dude I wish more movies had fight scenes with songs like this, it just makes them more fun man
I didn’t realize how much I needed free bird in fight scenes
I don't think it fits really, the reason the church scene in Kingsman fit so well with Free Bird in my opinion if because of how fast paced and chaotic the fight was, I feel these fight scenes are way too slow to fit in.
Good point. I had looked at a few faster-paced ones (for example, the bus fight from Shang Chi and the Ten Rings), but most of them already had loud music playing and I would have had to mute the original track in order for Freebird to be heard without blending with other music and sounding dissonant. Of course, that wouldn’t have been the end of the world, but I really wanted to dig up the fight scenes where I could add in the song without robbing viewers of the sound effects they already knew from the movie.
But hey, I’m considering doing a part 2 of this at some point, so if you would like to suggest fight scenes you think would fit better, I’m all ears. I wasn’t expecting this video to suddenly get so many views, so it might be cool to make another one and improve the quality and fit.
Thanks so much for your input, Rez! I truly do seek to make my videos become better and better, so constructive criticism is appreciated.👍👍
I dont think the title was meant to be taken 100% seriously, but I think it would legit fit in guardians of the galaxy or in avengers infinity war/endgame
that is the best one
Then put it on a Transformers movie.
I think a lot of the fight scenes in Crank and Hardcore Henry would fit really well.
I also think that the Neo vs 100 Smiths fight from Matrix Reloaded would fit well too
One thing I love about the cap elevator fight is those moments when he’s “muscling” or “pushing” through either them trying to pin or taze him. Adds realism to the fight. I’ve had jiu jitsu sparring sessions where I have to take a moment to power through something then I can decide what move I need to do next to push the fight back in my favor
The punching through the door part was actually perfect 😂😂😂
The fact that family guy actually had a school fight scene with free bird makes this even more funny😂
You know, Cap would honestly be pretty terrifying if he was evil.
He'd be Homelander. That's literally the whole premise of the series
True. Just Homelander's weaker version@@justanotherupscaspirant8837
He may not be as superhuman as that motherf-
Sorry. I hate Homelander... and love that fact. Alright, back to what I was saying.
- but Cap has _astounding_ charisma. He could easily mobilize tens of thousands to an evil cause, on that basis alone, haha.
@Gyrfalcon312 Again, THATS FCKING HOMELANDER. Homelander has insane charisma and rabid fans. Seriously did you not watch the show? Captain America and superman are literally the templates for Homelander
@@justanotherupscaspirant8837 I got only as far as Sea. 1. Lots of episodes to go, for me
Me: makes this video to celebrate 1K views on the channel.
Video: gets A MILLION VIEWS.😂😂
Seriously, thank you all so much for watching! I wasn’t expecting this to suddenly get so much attention, as it is not the main type of content I put out. I’m truly blown away by the fact that my content has been found so many times; it’s really humbling. You guys are awesome!
Also, I noticed some of you want me to play Freebird on the accordion now. Well, it’s a very hard song to play with that instrument.
HOWEVER… if y’all can get this video to 1 MILLION VIEWS (I can’t even believe I’m saying this about a video on my channel!), then I will do that!🪗
WE GOT THIS!!! Thank you all so much for helping my channel hit a growth spurt unlike it’s ever seen!!!🙏🥳
As always, thanks for watching, like and subscribe. 👍🤘
The UA-cam algorithm works in mysterious ways.
This video should be called: "Free Bird being Bucky and Cap's Bro Song" :P
Thank you for this edit
Enjoy it until the inevitable copyright strike. I'm glad you a made it. And it's a shame because it's probably going to prompt a bunch of people to buy freebird for their library.
Hope the strike never comes tho!
soooo close, now
2:06 This is the moment Chris Evans turned into Will Smith
Which one is Chris Evans
Given the style of music in Cobra kai that Johnny is accosted with and Miguel being his first student this fits extremely well
NO ONE ASKED FOR THIS BUT ITS SOO GOOD. thanks for discovering this its hilariously entertaining
To be honest Free Bird fits absolutely amazingly with the elevator fight scene and Captain America
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS
Props to the poster. Well done, MathMusician. Great editing.
Thanks so much! I also make accordion videos and math videos (hence the name)! :)
I love how at 6:21 henry cavill in the bathroom fight literally reloads his biceps before fighting the other guy
3:10 good synchronized
This video is great. While the kingsman scene was well done the fact that it was senseless murder displeased me. However watching Cap fight with this song was awesome. Heroic asskicking, free bird style. Beautiful. I miss you Cap.
Honestly - one of the Best if not the Best video I've ever watched
Thanks! That really means a lot.
You can tell a lot from a man who doesn't put any Raid fight scenes in their fight scene compilations.
Literally top tier action filmmaking.
The fight with bucky in Winter Soldier actually did line up really well for no reason lmao
This song will never cease to be amazing.
This song makes every fight look like a bar brawl
4:54 the music syncing with the punches is superb
This is all the internet was really invented for and it's phenomenal....
Free Bird.. so legendary for a 70s song.. Most epic solo ever
It’s official, Free Bird can make any fight not only sound but look like Matthew Vaughn directed it
Free Bird fits life: It's good, starts really calm and gets really chaotic and confusing, but still great
Now I wonder when we get the action-director who grades all his fight-scenes on how well they match beat/time to Freebird...
Absolute perfection in everyway and cool effects with the music during the first fight scene, I'm going to be watching this over and over, several times a year, every year.
5:43 DAME not the fucking laptop, shit!
That's where I had all my BL artwork!!! :(
Watching Captain America fight set to Free Bird?
*That might be the most American thing I've ever seen.*
Fights scenes are the guitar solos of action movies.
Love how it’s like there could actually be music playing in the elevator
It would also work phenomenally with the church scene from Kingsman
I love that mission impossible fight scene so fucking much
I still have a hard time really believing that any mortal man could tank body shots from a living *tank* like Henry Cavill and keep breathing, much less fighting
That Cobra Kai fight scene was the most satisfying thing I've ever seen
This needed to be made😂 I love fight scenes with guitar solos just out of control in the background.
This song playing in Kingsman during the Church fight was absolutely amazing...
That whole movie is so good
My toxic trait is thinking that I could take on anyone in a fight as long as Free Bird is playing 💀
I'm convinced there ain't a single high speed action sequence that can't be improved by free bird
Imagine this song plays in a crowded place and when the riff comes a random fist hits your face outta nowhere then you hit back the person beside you then everyone suddenly joins the brawl.
the fights scenes were cool in the movie, but that got me pumped. so badass. bucky kicking ass to freebird is amazing.
3:43 cap just said "nuh uh"
