Battlestar Galactica Bear McCreary plays with Katee Sackhoff "All Along The Watchtower" Live

See The Battlestar Galactica Auction only on Hollywood Forgotten. • Battlestar Galactica A...
This is exclusive footage that I shot at the Grand Performances Series in Downtown Los Angeles.
Note from Bear McCreary: "Kara Thrace herself, Katee Sackhoff, joined me on stage at the grand piano to play Kara Remembers I played the left hand part, and she plucked out the Final Four Theme, just as she did in the climax of Someone to Watch Over Me. Once we had the Final Four Theme going on the piano, the band snuck in, building to Heeding the Call and finally All Along the Watchtower.
Thank you Bear for letting me shoot this footage so that I can share it with you fans!

ITS IN THE FRAKIN SHIP!

[@filmsinfocus]

Don't forget to look at all my BSG Concert videos!

[@BeginBye]

This is Cylon sabotage aboard the ship, sabotage with music, yeah))))

[@NorthForkFisherman]

+BeginBye Now if the Cylons were playing Beastie Boys.....

[@Benstormcrow]

awwwwwwwwwwwwww can't stand it! I know ya planned it!

[@CullenRick]

Bear is always awesome - but this cover will always be the one that really rings home to me.

[@NorthForkFisherman]

"Where have you taken us, Kara?"

[@ututura]

BSG 4 ever. so say we all!

[@ganesha1967]

In Memoriam: Jimi Hendrix would be 71 years old today... he made it popular, Bear McCreary took it, and shot it up into deep space. :-)

[@StarCrossdSparrow]

Brilliant! I love how Sackhoff sort of just... runs away ;)

[@lj201082]

Check the drummer in the centre at 5:16 for an epic stick recovery lol.

[@DEFkon001]

@larsreal9 My interpretation has been that BSG gives us a perspective that life is repeating rhythm, and that with each passing iteration it is slightly different bringing with it a unique twist on something old and familiar. You can chose to take comfort in the traditions that are passed on, or leap into the unknown and hope that eventually the pattern will evolve so much as to break the cycle and start something... revolutionary.. and then it starts all over...

[@tracyclifton1]

I was in the second row at this concert. It changed my life. Holy Frak is Bear McCreary the Awesome. The rest of his musicians (incl. the bad-ass on the fiddle in the white jacket, center stage right) are amazing. Also - the singer is Bear's brother, Brendan. :)

[@otaldobet]

I would kill to see Bear McCreary, Composer concert!!! My favorite composer from my favorite show!

[@AverageJocelyn]

Matheus Betinelli I think I would die if i was in one of his concert !

[@otaldobet]

AverageJocelyn​ yes!!! would kill and die for it!!! hahaha

[@NorthForkFisherman]

+Matheus Betinelli As long as I download to the front row!

[@baronfeydrauthaharkonnen1627]

+Matheus Betinelli Then you'd resurrect :P

[@Quilbo]

This shit is here since 2009 and i only see Katee actually playing it now?

[@neutchain7838]

bruh dont even get me started, just got here lol

[@navahotaku]

I kept hearing this song in my head all day. Then I began to humming it everywhere I walked. Best day at work ever!

[@tehoken]

the best song from one of the greatest TV shows ever made. Bear Mc Creary is a LEGEND end of, awards come and go but people WILL be listening to his outstanding music for years to come, mainly because when I meet anyone who HASN'T heard at least this track, I tie them to a chair and make them listen to it. as of yet I've not had a single person I've played this too fail to acknowledge that this is a fantastic version of the song, and Bear McCreary is a musical genius.

[@RagingWildcat]

My friend I think you're forgetting that there are many here among us, who feel that life is but a joke. This piece of art transcends beyond the need of qualification or validation, that fact that it still impacts our lives, and we come back to it time and time again shows it's worth.

[@rhatcher010]

I get chills without fail. I get chills.

[@giltine666]

Battlestar Galactica is as deep as this song, all those feelings, thoughts, characters are just amazing

[@renthicya]

I couldn't sit through a whole concert, couldn't bear constant goosebumps and shivers for 1-2 hours.

[@EndofAutumn]

bears work in season 3 and 4 is the best tv music of all time, the way it intergrates with the show and characters was genius and the man deserves far more recognition, he is brilliant. cant believe he didnt win more rewards.

[@grimhold9951]

This is how the song was introduced on the show. Flashbacks of her trying to learn the song as a child and then when she was an adult. Incorporating that into a concert is awesome!

[@Kaya0Anna]

I really wish this world was real, this song makes me cry...I loved this episode...and the ones that followed. Battlestar Galactica was amazing, start to finish...

[@sweetdeb101]

First I became addicted to Battlestar Gallactica, then I became a fan of their version of All Along the Watchtower and now I am fascinated by Bear McCreary. Awesome!!!

[@Bender1Ostap]

One of the best written shows I've seen, pure genius.

[@DavidCourtney]

I literally get chills listening to this. Literally ... it's such an amazing wave of sound to my ears that I feel physically effected.

[@highviolet345]

Everytime i listen this version of the song,it takes me to the outter space , far away of the universe. 'Frakking Nice!'

[@fernwood]

Goodbumps here too. I think it's time I go watch the series for a third time just for the chilling moments when this song plays.

[@Laleh1991]

pure awesomeness ...I don't think a better soundtrack could ever be composed.Battlestar Galactica was/is the greatest form of entertainment ever conceived.

[@chasfuchsel8985]

i ve been to earth...i know where it is...and i m going to take us there...

[@filmsinfocus]

Thank you for sharing my video! Don't forget to look at all of them and subscribe!

[@barbarasmithh]

Yess!! There is no other such a genius in music, no matter space and time.

[@krazy05]

I can't watch this video enough. It gives me LIFE.

[@selenya]

The music in this show is top notch. Amazing scoring. Just beautiful!

[@knoxvilleguy2]

Frakking FANTASTIC !! Can I have a " SO SAY WE ALL " ? I can't really get tired of this song..... !!

[@ChickenOfAwesome]

Just watched the last episode. Looked this up to relive the moment. Frakkin epic song...

[@tropicalcatdetective]

I actually posted this on another BSG page but anyway: Many of the moments of revelation on BSG were absolutely riveting and haunting television and I think a lot of that is due to Bear McCreary's score. I think it's a great testament to the artist that the writers had his music become so intwined with the actual series that it became an actual plot-point, it made it all the more powerful when scenes like "Kara Remembers" played themselves out.

[@Starbuck8008]

Starbuck. The most complex character ever. She will live forever in our hearts.

[@MARREORO]

This songs is so mystic and alluring ! It caries something dark and scary and has this cathartic emotion.It approaches slowly like a tidal wave that splashes over sores of endless human mind that can be an equal to endless cosmos and opportunities it offers . The most amazing moment for me was the magical transcendence from the Tomb of Athene to the Planet Earth,were all the constellations were visible on skies.Very dramatic ,deeply intriguing! Exalting atmoshpere

[@hco144]

This is by far the best version of this song. I could watch this video all day! So Say We All

[@thhall459]

Gee whiz, Katee and Bear! I absolutely love you Katee! And I am forever in Bear McCreary's debt for his incredible talent. His music absolutely is the most perfect backdrop for the best show in the history of the world. Thank you for spending this special time with your adoring fans!

[@cho4d]

Guaranteed goosebumps every time i watch this.

[@RollingSoans]

Frak me! I just watched the season finale yesterday...and now this?? Too much awesomeness!!!

[@Martinracingdealer]

This concert was amazing, the one in San Diego last year was incredible. Bear McCreary has some of the best soundtracks on TV and makes the work day just fly by.

[@highviolet345]

This version of song takes me to outter space everytime. Frakking nice! Said that joker to the thief

[@LogicSpeaks]

Oh my goodness! This is bliss to my ears, back and over again. I love this song, the music for BSG made BSG. Bear McCreary is a fucking genius. If you love music, listen to some Puscifer as well. Just as disturbingly amazing to the ears..

[@sweetsolitude99]

I SO want to be there! Bear McCreary = genius!

[@mutarada]

I was at this performance and it was absolutely mindblowing. The minute they started playing the opening bars to "Watchtower" we knew it was going to be like nothing else we'd ever heard... nad we were right! Thanks for posting this :)

[@AnotherSchmoe]

This is amazing, really. I love this show. I don't have TV (not enough stuff worth watching) but I've been watching Battlestar on the DVDs recently, in Season 4 now. When I first saw this episode with this music coming on combined with what was happening in the show my jaw just dropped, seriously amazing. Best show ever!

[@tehoken]

@NappyFanBoy yeah, Katee Sackhoff is the actress that plays Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace, and she joins Bear McCreary on stage to play 'Kara Remembers' which is the piano intro on this track, then when the other instruments kick in the song changes to Heeding the call, and finally the song speeds up and the lyrics kick in for All Along the Watchtower. truely a Magnum Opus, Bear McCreary should be proud, he has created something truely Epic with this version of a longstanding clasic. So Say We All!

[@sxp2high]

That song is so hypnotic... There must be some way out of here!

[@azure808]

Totally awesome! Props also to the violinist, he actually made violin cool for 6 minutes and 11 seconds :)

[@kb420ps]

Bear McCreary really did an excellent job on the music of BSG. It was the best science fiction show on tv. This is nothing on tv that compares to it right now.

[@amandaem]

AMAZING. Props to Katee for appearing!

[@lismarieluhong]

I sooo totally miss BSG now! And this song is sruck in my head!

[@Lorfo]

GOOSEBUMPS. I love, LOVE this song from BSG. I listen to it constantly. I can die a happy woman because of this video.

[@dejarnettedesigns]

[@ddpg3]

Loved BSG one of the best series ever Sci-fi or not and I don't consider myself a Sci-fi guy. Katie Sackhoff was one of the best of the excellent actors in the series. Love this rendition of Dylan's song and I'm a huge, huge Dylan fan, great stuff!!!!

[@kantorghor]

Frakking great!!! why i'm living so far...

[@TheAbsinthemind]

As if this song could not get any more awesome. I wish I could find a recording of this.

[@NorthForkFisherman]

John Cavil Hmmmm....maybe there's some meaning behind it all? Tell me, do the numbers 1123, 6536, 5321 hold any specific meaning for you?

[@argive25]

NorthForkFisherman ...Gotta be some sorta way outta here! lol

[@Weltspiele]

The Music of BSG is/was fantastic! I love it

[@RichardAdenCollins]

So amazing!!!

[@babyBELUGAr]

There must be some kind of way out of here, said the Colonel to the Chief. There's music IN THE FRAKING SHIP, and I can't get no relief.

[@MrTBONESTEAK]

I love the enthousiasm of the violinists :D

[@EndofAutumn]

@matrix0071 agreed, the fans will make sure this show i watched and loved forever. Emmy means little in the long term scheme of things. In 30 years when its still watched and talked about, no one will remember what won emmys.

[@DakotaHouse]

[@btrktn]

What I would have given to have been there.... years off my life!!!!!

[@iggybiggy03]

great version of this song!!!

[@awenir]

At least BSG got the fandom it deserves. A once great idea rolled out in a plot I never would have believed someone could bring and for the music? Just

[@rogueangel808]

simply awesome

[@amezzeray2]

wow!! I am stunned!

[@fernwood]

Holy moly! I just read the description - that's Starbuck with him on piano!

[@AggravatedAstronomer]

FRAK ME, WHAT THE FRAK THAT WAS FRAKING AMAZING, GODS DAMNIT WHY WAS I NOT THERE. AHHHH. I cannot contain the excitement about the awesomes I have just witnessed!

[@shellihill7]

This was an amazing show! I can't wait to see the July shows at the House of Blues San Diego. What a great addition to Comic Con.

[@espp1973]

Fraking awesome!!

[@Trig0r]

[@eljuanchosf]
