Digital Underground - Same Song

Digital Underground - Same Song

http://youtube.com/watch?v=E8Idb_0M1h8

Comment: Now there is a lot to say about this video. The song comes from the EP release This is an EP Release (That is the name of the CD, no joke). The song was featured in the comedy film Nothing But Trouble; remember they’re the band that got arrested and put on trial, but are set free because they jammed with the Judge. 2Pac joined DU during this time and this movie was basically his first movie.

Things to notice:

Dan Aykroyd is in the video, playing bagpipes. Why was he playing bagpipes in a rap video with a song that didn’t have bagpipes in it to begin with? No one knows. Then again he was in the We Are The World video for no apparent reason.

Dr. Dre and Eazy E are in the video. During this time, they were still friends and business partners, plus Eazy was still alive.

This song is actually around six minutes long so the movie and music video versions are shorter. Plus, the movie version of the song sounds different.
