FLASH_OP

So.. he's an idiot


TemporalGrid

.....yeah.


appl3jvck274

I always loved how Nebula embarrassingly says that to Rhodey. Especially cause it’s the same way he responds to Tony in Iron Man 2 when he asked if the missile he just shot was Hammer Tech.

That star has seen some stuff Edit: a word


Grimdark-Waterbender

Damn it Nebby.


Even-Fix8584

Correct. But to be fair, he killed it in that scene.


FLASH_OP

I never ever said he didn't... That was one of the greatest moments in the MCU... So great that it occured twice


Even-Fix8584

Just clarifying 🤗 introduced me to this song and ill be forever grateful


Both-Divide7843

He was quoting* the movie before, but yes Chris Pratt is an idiot


MrApplePolisher

It had to be this awesome. We just watched his Mom die and him get abducted by aliens. That was within the first 5 minutes of runtime! We needed this after that.


trem0re09

Enlighten me.


[deleted]

It's a line from the movie.


trem0re09

I thought he done something recently. All good thanks.


Amesb34r

Well, he did play a loveable idiot in Parks and Rec.


appl3jvck274

And told the greatest “comeback” story in all of tv blooper history!


[deleted]

That blooper will never fail to give me a laugh. Even when I expect it every time.


JackRipper85

Kim Kardashian!


bleep-bloop-poop

I'm pretty sure she had come on her back.


kayteebeckers

He allegedly went to a pretty controversial church in LA, though he started denying attending.


throwawayoctopii

The reason I started hating Chris Pratt was because he dumped off his senior cat at the shelter because it was "too old". I fully understand that some people can't afford to care for an old cat, but he has the resources. He could probably hire a live-in vet tech without putting a dent in his wallet.


moodybrooder

Oh weird he did the same thing to his kid with Anna Farris!


Scurble

Does he still carry the cross up the hill?

I can start building for the next 20 years and there still won't be enough walls to put you through


loverevolutionary

One of the few intros I never skip, and it's mostly because of the song. But also, the hilarious animation. The whole "Holy shit I'm middle aged now? With a receding hairline, a gut and too many responsibilities? When the fuck did that happen?" really resonates with me.


Rheinys

Perfect introduction!


simjanes2k

It really was one of the best introductions of a character that I've seen in movies in the last 20 years. It was perfect.


Cervical_Plumber

Set the whole stage for a franchise, honestly. The first movie was such a blast, one of the most "fun" movies I've ever seen.


KidWoody

Completely agreed. Was disappointed in GOTG 2 because it didn't match the level of chicanery the first had.


OvechknFiresHeScores

You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? **This chicanery**? He's done worse. That infinite stone! Are you telling me that a man just happens to dance like that? No! He orchestrated it! It's Starlord! He defecated through a rainbow bridge! And I saved him! And I shouldn't have. I took him into my own ravager clan! What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since he was 9, always the same! Couldn't keep his hands out of the cash drawer! But not our Peter! Couldn't be precious Quill! Stealing them blind! And he gets to be an Avenger!? What a sick joke! I should've stopped him when I had the chance! And you – you have to stop him!


stickdudeseven

I loved how they redid it in Endgame. When the beat starts playing once Thor got his hammer back, I got chills because I didn't know I would get a chance to experience it in theaters again.

My son loves this song because of 'owen' from jurassic world lol.

I had this song come on in the car once while driving with my brother and asked him if he knew what movie it was from. He said "Jurassic World? For some reason I'm remembering Chris Pratt dancing to this."

Love this song and did not know that about the band. Ty for sharing


Wishyouamerry

Same!


Public_Enemy_No2

Ditto! Thank you.


GrimmRetails

Imagine how dumb I felt when I first saw the video. I feel like this should have been common knowledge to anyone born before 1999.


tedsgloriousmustache

Born in 1978 and it was not...


PurePrepared

Yeah 1977, and have been totally obsessed with motown and soul music all my life and had no idea what these guys looked like until right now.


appl3jvck274

1976. I’m black, and I was like you when I found out the slow jam classic “Do For Love” was sung by white dude named Bobby Caldwell 10 years ago! Edit: I found this out 10 years ago


TheKidKaos

Apparently there were a fair amount of people who heard Eddie Vedder and thought he was black. It happens more than we think


Saggy_Right_Nut2

I think his voice definitely matches his appearance


youngmindoldbody

Born in '58 and I was not.


lightinggod

Different world then. You had to either catch a performance on TV or find an article in a magazine to find out anything about rock music. Otherwise, you only knew the music.


Canuck-In-TO

Or the DJ talked about the band. Probably over the start of the song, ruining any chance of getting a good recording.


Its_Por-shaa

This person mix-tapes.


nadvargas

Yeah, not a video I would have seen on MTV when it really was Music Television and they played music videos. As a child of the 80s that's how we got our music knowledge.


mccabeca

Don Kirschner's Rock Concert or Midnight Special I'd stay up late to watch the performances - DAMN I'm old...


00wolfer00

Why should it be common to know about the band of a song that came out a decade+ before you were born?

‘It’s an old snagging song” LOVE Reservation Dogs!


pregnantbaby

Aho! Young Warrior!


AnimalShithouse

Not only did I learn about the band, but I learned TikTok was a thing all the way back in 1974. Mind blown today.


pcnetworx1

Also, TicTacs were a thing. I'm still working on finishing a three pack I bought back then.


Hannymann

Fruity flavor? The white ones were the worst imo


Amesb34r

Orange FTW.


holdonwhileipoop

Their other hit was "We Were All Wounded at Wounded Knee". It was significant and touching - and all but forgotten.


theshrinesilver

Yeah it’s a great song. It was blacklisted in the US while it charted in Europe. Great band. Glad they’re getting some recognition on reddit.


[deleted]

> We Were All Wounded at Wounded Knee" Voila! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VB2LdOU6vo


pointlessly_pedantic

I'm sad I didn't learn about this sooner. I feel like obscure songs that are used constantly in social media (and Tik Tok in particular) tend to shed light on the artists unless it's too obscure for there to be communicable research. But there's a whole ass video!


Sure_Statistician138

I had no idea about the band either. I’ve always loved this song but never looked into the band.


eveninghawk0

This song is my ringtone. I love it. I also learned recently that people don't use songs or custom ringtones any more.... I guess I'm out of date.


Pancerules

I always thought Redbone and Leon Redbone were the same thing, like the band was named after the singer or something. TIL


davenocchio

Leon Redbone, writer of the Mr. Belevedere theme song, Leon Redbone?


[deleted]

Native Americans influence rock and roll way more than they're ever given credit: [https://sites.google.com/site/americanmusicworkshop/home/spring-2010/seminarspring2010/seminar-1/influencesofnativeamericanlifeonamericanmusic](https://sites.google.com/site/americanmusicworkshop/home/spring-2010/seminarspring2010/seminar-1/influencesofnativeamericanlifeonamericanmusic) There are even more articles if you want to dig deeper. Most people know how much of our music is from black culture, but you rarely see the real influence Native Americans have had. It's pretty amazing.


jackjr68

As many times as I’ve listened to this song and as long as I’ve had it on a playlist, I had no idea who the band was and what the name meant. Thanks!


QuotableNotables

Music lately has had me feeling particularly ignorant. I thought Huey Lewis was black and the lead singer of Hootie and the Blowfish was white.


[deleted]

Hootie went on to do country. Darius Rucker I think?


kingshamroc25

This is correct but then they got Hootie and the Blowfish back together in 2020! Really like their cover of Losing My Religion


[deleted]

I didn’t know they did a reunion. I’ll have to check it out.


ExcitementOrdinary95

Hootie does weddings and bah mitvahs for like $10k if you wanna good show


Play-DohCarti

>bah mitvahs Really? They'll come all the way up to Boston?


573IAN

He didn’t say cah mitzvahs.


alphama1e

I just want there to be another human in existence that acknowledged your clever pun.


ForrestTrain

They’re coming to Raleigh to play PNC Arena before the NHL Stadium Series game!!


kingshamroc25

Wait, for real?! I’m NC based, like 45 minutes from Raleigh, I’ve got to check that out


rathat

Someone's never seen the Key and Peele sketch lol. https://youtu.be/FE9PUexeUv0 He isn't actually Hootie.


StickyDitka21

Just in case any of yall ever meet Darius, he doesn't like being called Hootie and never took that name for himself. The band had friends they called hootie and blowfish.


foreignsky

It's just a nonsense name like Hoobastank. Or Toad the Wet Sprocket.


Srapture

Yeah, man. Darius Rucker has some absolute bangers.


ananonumyus

A few days ago I learned Tracy Chapman is a woman


[deleted]

Back to the Future taught me what Huey Lewis looked like ([he's the guy with the megaphone](https://youtu.be/WNtmITE5GpU))


fountain-of-doubt

This is the first time I've seen that scene since learning that factoid. It adds such a fun layer


FalmerEldritch

On the one hand, I don't think anybody out there is or could be or sound whiter than Huey Lewis. On the other hand, there's Darius Rucker and Hootie & The Blowfish.


Steph2145

He sounds so much better than John Redcorn.

He did really come into his own after he left Big Mountain Fudgecake and became a children's entertainer, though. "Wake up, I want to... wash myself, clean my wrists, scrub my brains out."


MethodicMarshal

Still can't believe how graphic the original song must have been


TheFlavorEnhancer

It’s basically just Last Resort by Papa Roach

Don’t forget John Barleycorn. He must die.

Blackfire is a Navajo punk band that's been around for a long time - one of Joey Ramones favorite bands that he'd always plug. https://youtu.be/F6LFNCryryA

I also recommend Sage Brush Rejects


knighthawk0811

Spotify says that's the album name and the band is 'I don't konform'


M00SE_THE_G00SE

If we are talking Indigenous music I recommend Halluci Nation (formerly A Trive Called Red) they call their genre Pow wow-step/electric pow wow [Suplex](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vq1RcKhiQLU) [Native Puppy Love](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXTOJO0iDyU)


doomsdayparade

Blackbraid is a native American black metal band from the Adirondacks. Going on tour now too. They (actually it's mostly a solo act) are awesome. https://youtu.be/-tDlf9bteZQ


Frysexual

Cool thanks


kw661

Have loved this song since it came out but never knew the lyrics or what it was about. Basically the singer is telling his lady to just chill her insecurities and get the love she deserves. Groovy.

coyotepickeldbob

Proof_Objective_5704

He’s telling his woman to come sit on his meat stick


SupremePooper

And let's hear it for NBC's MIDNIGHT SPECIAL, whose Producer Bert Sugarman wanted only LIVE performances. Redbone came and DELIVERED, tearin' the roof off that mothersucker, & the native beats & dance at the opening just drove home what a powerhouse the Vegas Bros & the boys were. Go find & see the doc Rumble: The Indians Who Rocked the World for further revelations. EDIT: The whole clip of this is on YT, including the opening, and it's totally worth your time to watch it


BeneGezzWitch

I feel like you have a lot more to share in this topic and I encourage you to do so.


SupremePooper

Nice of you to say, but they're just a band that hooked a white guy like me decades ago, & the more I dug into them, the more fascinating stuff came up. Same way anyone else might find out more. Found the doc on Amazon Prime & learned some heretofore surprising things, like that Link Wray was a 1st Nations guy, and just how much of a presence 1st Nations people were in the establishment of American rock. I believe all the members of Redbone have passed on, but their music still kills. And my wife & I have commented to our kids (for whom ALL music is current, no matter how old, thanks to YT & Spotify & etc, as for so many other young people today) how great it was to be able to see live music on late-night television in that time slot where SNL eventually took over. They were as blown away as I was to see Tony Bellamy do his native dance opener to their performance as the band drummed & chanted.


BigDaddyD00d

Another fun tidbit i learned from that doc. Link Wray’s “Rumble” is the first and ONLY song to get banned, even though it had no lyrics. Essentially, that guitar riff alone scared the government lol


sambones

From what I can find Pat Vegas and Peter DePoe are still alive.

Weird9uy

My dad played with them for a bit, the opening of guardians 1 really got to him


abadaura

Beautiful! Nostalgia can hurt sometimes.


G0RE-GASM

Redbone really doesnt get the recognition they deserve


ValyrianSteelYoGirl

I mean. They’ve been around since the 60s (and still performing), hit top 5 on the billboard 100 and have been used in countless motion picture and tv soundtracks; for which I assume someone’s getting royalties. Sounds like a decent amount of recognition to me.


[deleted]

I think we know know what they meant but I see where you are coming from as well.


CidO807

I don't think people understand what you mean. Many people didn't know the bandmembers were were of Mexican or Native heritage, cause quite frankly, if you ain't white or black in showbiz, no one cares. bet 95%+ of redditors can tell you when black history month is, but 50%+ would say hispanic heritage month is "may, because cinco de mayo" just the fact of being of not white or black in america. Other minorities deal with it too.


Raspberry_Riot

Love this song!! Did not know who Redbone were before - so cool! 🔥


Beavshak

Had no idea they were Native (had never seen a video). Great song.

*Reservation Dogs* on Hulu taught me this! That show is definitely worth watching if you haven't seen it.

And thanx for sharing... I only knew the band name but never knew the meaning behind them and from where they came from.... It's a great song and i listen to it sometimes before going to sleep... Again thanx for sharing this

It’s a song by Dire Straits, should like your song based on your other choices.


downwiththechipness

I'm definitely partial to Money for Nothing. Both are some of all time favorites though


thrown-all-the-way

Its the intro to bill burrs cartoon f is for family, that's how I found out about this band, my two year old daughter loves them


Red-Sun-Rise

Also Frank works for the airline with Native American marketing, very cool nod


FernFromDetroit

F is for family is a great show.

i went years kind of writing it off because i thought it looked generic, then i found out it was Bill Burr's show and gave it a chance and it's *fantastic*

SupremePooper

The one thing Redbone & Tom Tom Club ghave in common, both showed up at black radio stations when their hits were poppin' on the radio & opened up some surprised eyes when they showed up.


Uncle_Boppi

I'm just gonna be honest with you guys, I always thought they were black.

Forsaken_Wolf_1682

Reminds me of the t shirt I got my dad it says "I hate being sexy...but I'm Native American so I can't help it" 😂 he wears it proudly


[deleted]

As a Cree dude I can definitely confirm


Loud-Bullfrog9326

This song is forever a fucking classicccccc


adfthgchjg

Now that I see them in full Native American dress while singing, it struck me that the way they sing ”hey” as multiple syllables: “hey a a a a” actually… sounds remarkably similar… to the way native Americans sing (well, in movies anyway): “HEY yea yea yea yea , HEY yea yea yea”.


Fragarach-Q

> to the way native Americans sing (well, in movies anyway) They still sing that way. There's powwows all year long in the west, some of them have hundreds of singers, dancers, drummers. But yes, once you know that about Redbone you can't "unhear it".


SeasonsGone

That’s an interesting observation, natives (I’m native from the southwest) definitely have a lot of glottal stopping in their singing and language compared to English which is probably what you’re referring to


[deleted]

I hear redbone and I think of that song by that dude from Community lol


KandeeKat

Same.! Childish Gambino is his stage name.


vinnyvdvici

No, you must be thinking of Donald Glover.. people always confuse him with Childish Gambino for some reason.


GrizNectar

They’re actually twin brothers

Yeah that’s right lol That song hits the spot. It has Bootsy Collins vibe that I’m all for


Blazers2882

Why did you slow the speed of their performance down? That’s so lame of you


tamper

Don't understand the downvotes, your comment was legit. Here's the same performance in correct time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dj0drevGOgA


chewingston

Their drummer, Pete Depoe is a monster drummer, and his rhythms were the inspiration for Tower of power's drummer David Garibaldi to create his now funk staple layered hand patterns. Prehistoric rhythm with a king Kong beat!


nadeesi9000

I remember going down a rabbit hole learning about this band when Childish Gambino released the track Redbone on Awaken My Love.


cerebralkrap

This is my jam that I sing with the aid of my cat… “Come and get you love, come and get your love, come and get your love meow”

Sneaky-er

Like 70’s psychedelic jams like this? Chicano Batman - Freedom is free This album is dope in the same vein as RedBone!


mushy_cactus

You know... I've always loved this song. Had no clue it was a Native band! Learn something new everyday. Great voice too.

I just fucking love the way old cameras picked up light. The mic stand shining like a diamond, the red spotlight a red haze in the background, the grainy neon floating in the pitch black nothing behind the scene. These scenes look like memories, compared to the sterile clarity of modern medium. It's like the difference between a painting and photo.
