20 years later and it's still an absolute banger

[@elenadonnarumma4823]

Quanto l' ho ballata

[@JonTimi]

23 years and counting...

[@Zeta9966]

Bros we’re ahead of their time. I was lucky enough to see them live during this era. It was surreal. At some point during the set, the crowd lost all composure and started a water bottle war from both sides of the field (it was in a football stadium). I turned around and there was this like 100ft arc of hundreds of water bottles flying through the air in opposite directions. And the light was reflecting off of them like disco balls. I’ll never forget that. May be my most precious concert memory ever.

[@gregguthrie7746]

Saw them in Atlanta early 90’s. When they were called the dust brothers. Tiny club called Madhouse...amazing.

[@ElSeventhSon]

Holy shit, so these guys are the dust brothers??? No wonder Fight club's soundtrack is so damn good!

[@indygrx]

@@ElSeventhSon No, they had to change their name to Chemical Brothers because of legal issue with the original Dust Brothers (the ones who composed the Fight Club's soundtrack).

[@swedecerra4147]

La-Tee-Dah

[@KingBoner]

The Dust Brothers are a different music duo

[@pinkbonde8642]

The last real Glastonbury!! Fuckin incredible!! When Es ruled the world...was stood on the hill watching the crush..so wonderful

[@DirtiestSoul]

Why the last real glastonbury bro?

[@mariabanfield6716]

I saw Chemical Brothers in the Boiler Room at Big Day Out in Sydney 2000 and this song lifted the roof OFF, the whole room was jumping, pumping, the atmosphere was simply AMAZING, was one of the best experiences of my life....will never forget it!

[@mavjimbo]

Wow, must have been amazing

[@patrickryan5570]

20 years later and this live banging tune still sounds fresh as a daisy...

[@ethanrutter2553]

Some superstar DJs right here 👌

[@seriouslee7762]

I was in this crowd on a serious mix of Gary's. Was mind blowing

[@Zeta9966]

[@marcbrimble5222]

The last Real Glastonbury.The fence got broken down and the festival reached double capacity. It would never be the same again

[@hey_james]

So glad I went that year, the only year I ever went.

[@PennyBluebottle]

Yes my son went that year and the following year it changed drastically. All the plebs started going.

[@KidTheLuke]

He’d have had a job it wasn’t on the following year

[@adl7904]

Wild times! Brilliant memories!

[@mrjamescurry]

Alone on my own in that field. That was the last year before the Super Fence, AMAZING Gig but you just couldn't move; never seen that stage so packed. Chems smashed it though.

[@mrpotato442]

Checking this song out on other videos at Glastonbury in 2011, 2019 and Sonar 2022 it sounded just as fresh for each of these years. It will always be an iconic track and a timeless masterpiece.👌

[@NickAdelman]

0:54... man had a whole freakin mixing board... that how you did it back in the day

[@CockatielStudios]

I mean they still kinda have the same basic setup, kinda love how consistent its been since 1995

[@erminedereims400]

because it’s the chemical brothers bro this was during there peak era

[@bright0nsounds]

We're typically used to songs being played live if they're acoustic/instrumental, or played from recordings/productions if they're techno. The chem bros are one of the few mainstream (there are a lot of other artists who do it but aren't as well-known) producers who actually perform techno live, playing and recreating it faithfully off their synths and drum machines. The structure of this song changes every time it's played. The release version on Surrender is not this version, is not the Glastonbury 2019 version. They can actually play it to respond to the crowd, which is fucking insane.

[@abrahamrodriguezpineda1848]

@@bright0nsoundsthat’s not techno

[@paranoidandroid1997]

Saw them for the first time last year, they blew my mind.

[@streetdaniel2010]

Went to Glastonbury to see the boys and could hardly get in the field there was that many people a few weeks later my mate who’s a music writer invited me to the Q awards and they was there DJing and I was standing next to the DJ box and 4 other dancing about telling this story to Tom as this played it was fucking madness 🤯

[@bazza-island]

40 years old now but chemical brothers and cypress Hill blew my mind.

[@Dan-pw3kb]

I was there, sittin on the hill with a foot long spliff and a crate of stellas staring at the lasers

[@saz9170]

I still love this tune 20 years later, good times😊

[@sirkermitfroggington2185]

The definition of a rave tune

[@Zeta9966]

New artists don’t hold a candle to this imo. And these dudes actually did all of this live with actual synths and computers. Now it’s just some chode with a fucking aux cable miming the motions of these authentic legends.

Anyone ever wondered why the song is called hey boy hey girl but they say it the other way round ?

[@eightiesboy]

Nah...

[@EclecticoIconoclasta]

Because drugs

Jimmy Cliff did a tune with the same title, maybe it’s a nod to him?

Il commento in lingua italiana sotto un video della bbc, meglio non metterlo. Ma PERCHE' tutti i coglioni sono miei connazionali cazzo

[@oceanroad1584]

it was false then as it is now ,wake up.

[@deviantdave]

These guys might be the most boring on stage band I've ever seen. No charisma whatsoever, just hide behind their dj machines.
