      It sounds like a real military war song when the troops load into the plane to go to war.
      This song also remind me of that scene in the movie "Hair" when the troops marching to load the plane to go to war in Vietnam. Wow

    Now THiS is a cover! And I love it! I really don’t want to listen to “covers” I’ve not heard for fear it’s just going to be what I call a ‘karaoke cover,’ a note-for-note copy of an original song. Sometimes songs are _exactly_ the same, with identical instrumentation....those songs are classified as covers, but they aren’t, not to me. A cover needs to be reimagined and presented in an artist’s own style, as when people say an artist “owned” a song, like Sinead O’Connor’s cover of “Nothing Compares 2 You.” Wycliffe Jean certainly owned this covert and it’s amazing!!

    I’d have to say The Manchurian Candidate is my all time second favorite movie; this was a perfect touch to the end credits. Just imagine what all happens at the hands of the world’s most powerful people without us ever knowing, people. It’s a scary thought.

      @sethwallace7666 3 роки тому +2

      @@J_Caban it’s kind of simplistic reasoning to just assume there can’t possibly be anything dark going on in the world that we don’t know about just because a movie with a similar premise was allowed to be created. All sorts of conspiracy theories float around randomly, and there’s no shortage of films that make heaps of money off running wild with them. Doesn’t mean they actually make a difference in what the public thinks, so why bother censoring them all? If anything, doing that would be more suspicious

    The fact that this still isn't on Spotify is criminal. Banger of a cover. Both Wyclef and Demme give their versions a new soul but the heart of the original is still beating.
    Also would like to add: while the movie opens with this song, representing Ben Marco's thoughts and fears, the last song (the Fountains of Wayne cover of Better Things) represents Raymond Shaw's last remaining sliver of hope that Ben has successfully unearthed from the shell constructed by Eleanor and Manchurian Global.

    No no, somebody help me now
    Some folks are born made to wave the flag,
    Ooh, the red, white and blue.
    And when the band plays hail to the c***f,
    Lord knows, they point the cannon at you, don't they?
    But it ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no senator's son.
    It ain't me, it ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one, no,
    Yeah!
    Some folks are born silver spoon in their hand,
    Lord, don't they help themselves, ooh.
    The taxman give them the key to the land,
    And wonder why there's nothing left for school in hell,
    Tell me, it ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no millionaire's son, no.
    It aint me, it aint me; I aint no fortunate one, no.
    Some folks I know, inherit star spangled eyes,
    Only to send you off to war,
    And when you ask them, how much should you give?
    They tell you more and more! more! more!
    They want more more more, taking more more!
    Send in more more more, wanting more more!
    FBI, CIA, Secret Service
    Tell them I ain't no fortunate one
