The Wiseguys - Start the commotion

[@08techgrad]

Whoever came up with this song was heavily influenced by the pop groups of the 60's and the funk music of the 70's. The blending of the different music styles was flawless as it was superb.

[@Cheebasonic]

That’s the whole nature of hip,hop production in a nutshell…a brilliant video to convey all music sampled on that tune !

[@Woodie-xq1ew]

If you didn’t know it’s a remix of a song called Wild Child by The Ventures which was released in 66

[@samrose3205]

[@siennaprice1351]

I had a dream about this song one time. So I asked my mom to look it up, and she did. So I asked her to put it on my MP3 player. That seems to be the thing with me. I either have a dream about a certain song that I remember hearing from my past, or somehow someway, the song gets stuck in my head. And then I have to find it!

Can we just appreciate how masterfully edited this video is? Every clip is perfectly aligned to each sample in the song. Someone put a lot of care into trimming this one!

Totally agree! Makes it a much better video than the vast majority of half-assed videos where the music has nothing to do with what's being shown on the screen.

A lot of comments about the song, which is great, but not that many about the video. As someone said, this is one of the all time greats! A masterpiece! And a perfect companion to The Avalanches' "Frontier Psychiatry". This video has aged like a fine wine -- great then, even greater now!

[@nathan43082]

It’s not genius. It’s pretty much a remake of The Ventures’ “Wild Child.” It doesn’t take genius to do that. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2nbi3t6jd6cncU

[@benjaminvlz]

Remake? I think you mean they sampled it. This song contains samples from a few different songs. I think it takes creativity to take samples from different songs and put them together to make a new song. This ain't the first song that has done this and it sure won't be the last. Some of the greatest songs in popular music contain samples or interpolations of other songs.

[@emerpus01]

Benjamin Velez When I first heard this I was also getting into the ventures, like ‘98/‘99. And I did not know that the sample was taken from wild child by the v’s. I just knew it was dope. And it MADE that song. (The ventures later sued and got paid)

[@Tommy_Wimmer]

The guy who said "Wind it up, baby" (Junior Parker) died in 1971.

[@emerpus01]

The main riff is from the Ventures' Wild Child and not only didn't they not invite the Ventures to be in the video, they never even told them about the sample! The result: the V's sued their English asses and took like 2/3 of the royalties. Yeah, the money from this song mostly goes to a group founded in 1958 in Tacoma that still tours Japan.

[@gustavomantovani8309]

+emerpus01 - There's also the little "screaming" guitar intro from Wild Thing / The Ventures. I would never guess they would put out this song without asking for permission since 80 of the song uses the riff from Wild Child. I like the result though!

[@Jedizen07]

I'm not seeing the following in the comments. But, the main distorted bass riff/partial drum feel/guitar line was sampled from the Ventures' " Wild Child " riff ( from 1966 ). It was one of the first instances of distorted bass guitar around the time of Frank Zappa's Mother Of Invention and The Beatles ( both groups used the distorted bass effect by turning up the recording channel in the mixer ). But, of course, this version has a ton of great samples and an AMAZING feel. Perfect for the 2000s and beyond. Wind it up baby, indeed!
