Given all the weird novelty disco music that came out during the late 1970’s, this remix doesn’t seem too out of the ordinary.

This works pretty good, but what if there was like some early new wave sprinkled in?


The backing vocals at the beginning, “Choo Choo! Cha Cha!” Laughed so hard it hurt.


You say these songs are supposed to be ruined, but I have loved every one of them and want full versions to purchase.  Please and thank you.

Would I be showing my age if I brought up the "soft ballads", "heavy hair hits", best of hip hop", etc all with multiple editions like "best love songs of all time, no. 24"?
"Available on cassette and cd! Act now while supplies last. Operators are standing by to take your order."

Well, I could see myself paying for an album with full songs. My wife gets a kick out of them too. I think it would be fun to see people react when they realize what they are hearing.

Yes, and you call them ruined despite the fact that they are obviously improved.

Yes! Please make full versions to purchase


The prisoners hating it is the master touch.


+10 points for amazing use of the Wilhelm Scream!


Johnny Cash had a good sense of humor. I think he'd be ok with this.


As a Johnny Cash and Disco fan, I fucking love it!


I'd love a full version of this - it's magnificent.


I need a full version of this in my life PLEASE


Oh my God, the Wilhelm at 0:44 was perfection.

That's a scene from Naked Gun 3, if I recall correctly.

I didn't laugh until that happened, then had to rewind and watch it again.

The situation slowly worsening and breaking into a riot is brilliant.


In addition to my previous comment, I am not ashamed to admit that I watched this C&D masterpiece RUINOUS amounts of times now. It makes me feel like jumping on a table and bashing someones or maybe my own head with a tray. When  the lines "But That Train Keeps A-Rollin'
On Down To San Antoooone" are sung after 0:20 to this mindblowingly slapped bass I want to jump on the heads of the rioters and do some substantial crowdsurfing. The way Johnny Cash lifts himself on his toes when reaching "Antoooone", priceless. Does YouTube have a repeat A-B function?


The Wilhelm scream and slide whistle were a nice touch


As much as it distresses me to say so, I loved this version lol


I've never heard the original but this is pretty cool


The background track in this video is the Brothers Johnson song “Stomp”.


Thank you for this. This has impacted my life in ways that I am grateful for now and cannot wait to experience later.


I haven't heard a bass breakdown like that, since 1978.


Genius, loved it! On par with the polka version of 'In The Shallow' for me; time for Sex Pistols meets Carlos Jobim perhaps...


I’m surprised he didn’t actually record or give permission for a disco version of the song.


The Wilhelm scream was the icing on the cake.


I just binged your channel. Had to comment... I loved the Wilhelm scream!!!


Can we get Hallelujah but make it reggae

There's no way that's not already a thing

@There I Ruined It Did you make the song yet?


Yeah...l remember that riot back then . Didn't ever think old Johnny would turn disco on us that day .Hurt a lot of good people that day .Please and thank you .


Can we get the full song?? This is hilarious


Bonus points for incorporating the Wilhelm Scream!


I came to the comments to ask where the slide whistle was but heard it at the very end. Well done as usual 🤣

@There I Ruined It I thought it was just someone whistling at the end? Or was the whatever thing there?! 😄

I finally looked it up with so much debate about this instrument's name :) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acme_siren

spruce bingsteen my reality has been shattered


Turns out a good song is hard to actually mangle.


...choo choo... cha cha! And then 0:20. I'm dead and born again. I am pretty sure this is the zenith of both Country & Disco. And now I am a C&D fan. I take Shotgun cocking and Wilhelm scream as a fair substitute for the otherwise sorely missed slide whistle.


Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues" in the style of Doobie Brothers' "Long Train Coming"? <br>Yes, please!

Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues" in the style of Doobie Brothers' "Long Train Coming"?
Yes, please!


ALWAYS GOOD WHEN YOU HEAR A "WILHELM " SCREAM! LOL

Press 'f' for another Wilhelm died that day.

You develop an ear for it after a while.


I fuckin' lost it at the CHOO CHOO and it only became more amazing from there.


I love the fact you snuck in The Wilhelm Scream at the end.


Lookin for some old folk bluegrass meets techno punk up in here! Awesome :0)


You actually used my favourite disco song for this


Always upvote The Blues Brothers - even if it's a half-second shot.


I need a Michael Jackson Thriller as a Lullaby.


My father will turn over in his grave omg I love it


If I was a prisoner and Johnny Cash came out and sung disco like this I'd riot too. lol  Congratulations, you definitely ruined it. lol


This is the best thing ever made (derogatory)


It's Disco Demolition Night at Folsom Prison!


Given that jhonny cash worked with nine inch nails i think he would have liked this too.


Was waiting for the slide whistle at the end


Never heard the song so it was never ruined for me


Imagine the brothers johnson as back up singers


Stomp by Brothers Johnson will never be booed in my book.

brothers Johnson & Cash are one of the best in there range of music. LEGENDS.


GROOVY !     Although  I think  Disco is officially classified as   ''Cruel and Unusual Punishment'' by the Federal Courts,   punishable by overdose injections...  :-/


This sounds eerily like Corey MacAlbee singing!


0:24 Sounded like the Seinfeld the tune. U did a great job, so funny.


Lol, this sounds like Jerry Lee Lewis’ version of this song.


Flashing lights, they make me dizzy, and this disco stereo is rage to my ears


Ok, your channel is called “there I ruined it, not “there I made it 10x better”


Well... now there's a riot going on up in cell block number nine...


If KISS can sell out with disco, Cash sure as fuck can.


I heard a Wilhelm scream during the riot😅


lol some people must be boiling right now hahahaha


Def need more, many many more. Linkin park, metalica, guns n roses, queen, ac dc, ruin all my fav bands. Goddamnit.


what song haven't you put that "whizzz" sound effect in


People expected a Folsom Prison Blues, not a fucking Talking Heads concert.


So, does an upvote count as "You ruined it" or does a downvote?


RUINED:

putting the slide whistle in the outro is cheating


Is that Johhny Cash singing or someone else?


What song have you used from 0:10 onwards?

Stomp by The Brothers Johnson, from 1983 I think.


The Suicide Squad vs. The Guardians of the Galaxy!


Is that a clone dieing in the end that I heard?

It’s called the Wilhelm Scream and it’s been used everywhere :)


Choo Choo 🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂

Choo Choo 🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂


Never has there been a more overhyped singer than this guy. More like an actor, really. He never shot a man...or went to prison.

Ozzy Osbourne isn't the actual Prince of Darkness either.

Tolkien was never a hobbit , never destroyed that ring,... pathetic


The disco part .seems to have come from the Brothers Johnson, just so you know.
