    The band was from the north east of England and the singer Eric Burdon spent time tracking down words to this traditional song which had almost been lost.

    This song has such a complex history. No one knows for sure who wrote it or when, but it is most certainly over 300 years old, most likely originated in England or France... and some sources suggest this song resembles a folk song from the 1500s. Of course, the song has changed bit by bit over the centuries. The only thing we know for sure is that the modern lyrics were trademarked in 1925, and that the House was indeed a bordello.
    Interesting, right?

    The song was a warning to others, the young man in the song is going back to New Orleans, to prison, 'to wear that ball and chain'...what the prison guards attached to the convict's ankle to deter escape attempts.

    The song is a traditional folk song, referring to a ‘house of ill repute’ (a brothel), it was originally written to be sung by a woman, and refers to living a miserable life working as a prostitute in a brothel in new Orleans (brothels were legal in New Orleans and thriving right up into the early 20th century). Many folk singers female and male have covered this song previously, but the Animals made it popular, it was number 1 in the UK (where the Animals are from). The Animals also had hits with ‘We gotta get out of this place’ which reached number 2 in the UK charts, and ‘don’t let me be misunderstood’, which reached number 3 in the UK charts. The lead singer Eric Burdon is said to be the ‘egg man’ referred to in the Beatles song ‘I am the Walrus’.

    He didn't get out of his life of poverty and sin. He followed in his father's footsteps, and wound up living in a brothel, and gambling house where he had committed some crime. He ran away and was caught, and is going to prison. "I'm going back to New Orleans, to wear that ball and chain." He is warning mothers not to let their children follow in his footsteps.

      House of the rising sun is talking about a whorehouse or brothel. It’s a great incredible song that I grew up with. And having been a young gambler, I almost got caught up in the “house of the rising sun“ if it wasn’t for a older, pretty prostitute who told me “you don’t want to get started in this”. I took her advice and walked out the door and, by God’s grace, never came back.

    I like that lyrics matter to you. Shows you have intellect. Beats and chords are the vehicle it arrives on. The words tell you where you have arrived at. There is a melody in every song. Even instrumentals have a melody somewhere within. Words bring meaning. You understand that well. Glad I subscribed.

  • @Radagast-
    @Radagast- 3 роки тому +3

    You're listening to the studio version. This footage is taken from a 1965 movie called "Pop Gear," which was about the British musical invasion of the US. It would have been shot on 35 mm film stock, hence the quality. It featured a bunch of bands lipsynching to one of their songs, but rest assured that Eric Burdon can sing like that!
    Anyway, the band recorded the song in 15 minutes and any distortion you can hear was deliberate.
    PS This is a very old folk song (at least 130 years). It tends to be assumed that the eponymous House was a bordello, but the lyrics are so vague it could be anything. It's a cautionary tale: whatever the House is, it's a place that one doesn't want to be, and whatever one does to end up there should be avoided.

    The song is a cover song from famous Blues musician. It's about how drug alcohol addiction and gambling addiction can be a generational problem. The animals were counted and in the music industry did not want them making their own original music.

  • @VivaRafaafaRaviV
    @VivaRafaafaRaviV 3 місяці тому

    To me i feel like there is a lot of metaphores and i think he is talking about poverty, the ball and chain can refer to prison but also his life conditions that stop him from pursuing his dreams. The house of the rising sun i feel like it can be his home or his neighbourhood, where he is constantly looking for the next day to stay alive and maybe hope it will get better eventually maybe because it can't get any worse anyway. At the end when he said "to wear a ball and chain", it's like now the song is over he is going back to his shitty neighbourhood and singing is his way to forget this life and leave the house of the rising Sun.

  • @letitbesummer6536
    @letitbesummer6536 3 роки тому +3

    I agree with you! The song is intense and hauntingly sad. The guitar player looks goofy smiling. In the sixties they didn’t really do videos: just performances. They changed the lyrics to make it seem he was gambling at at a gambling & whorehouse just like his dad, ruining his life.

    The Animals are a British band , so no the song is not about them , most bands don't write the songs , they sing the words like an actor speaks the words written by someone else. A good singer , like a good actor makes you believe the words are their's and therefore makes you feel the emotions.

      Mimed from the one take recording. This clip was filmed in 1964 or 65 as part of a UK colour film called Pop Gear for paying theatre release. This explains the early high quality color images we luckily have for this mimed from the record performance and also a few other top UK only music artists from when the film was made.
      UA-cam has quite a few segments from this UK movie Pop Gear with the US contribution being to re title it Go Go Mania and add a few intro segments to satisfy the US audience.
      A UA-cam search for Pop Gear Go Go Mania shows the segments :
      ua-cam.com/users/results?search_query=pop+gear+go+go+mania
      The intro by TCM explains the background of the film. While some of these segments were likely to be shown on US Colour TV much later , the source would originally be this high quality film.
      Rising Sun is the standout, but the Honeycombs with Have I the Right is a landmark too,
      In 1964 images not recorded on film would be much lower quality videotape, not the notable quality images used here. Especially with the inferior US NTSC standards often called Never The Same Colour.
      So lucky the film was made instead of relying on low standard video tape recordings that were usually taped over anyway to save tape cost money or made by filming a TV screen with poor quality results. I would be amazed to see any video recording from 1964 up to this standard of image quality. A better sound source can easily replace or lesser quality film track early source in UA-cam postings these days.
      These films mainly used mimed performances as the vast majority of theatre audiences wanted to hear the music performance as they knew it from the records.
      Hope this helps people who have the colorized and vidoetape theories that usually pop up.

    Fantastic reaction hun🙏❤️ Please do "Hard Times" by Tyler Childers! Love from Idaho😁
    the song is a story of a young man lost in sin, being taking in by the wild life of prostitutes, drink and drugs. "The Rising Sun" was the name of a brothel in New Orleans around the end of the Civil War.
    Fun fact, this isn't the original but it is the most famous and beautifully sung version imo. Nobody knows who wrote the original line "there is a house in New Orleans called The Rising Sun, and it's been the ruin of man a poor boy (or girl, depending on the version. See Bob Dylan's version that came before this version). It is believe to originated as a slave song in the deep south during that time in history.
