Track Description
Available in:
"Right Here, Right Now" is a song by British big beat musician Fatboy Slim. It was released in April 1999 as a single from the album You've Come a Long Way, Baby. The song reached number two in the United Kingdom, pipped to the post by Westlife's debut single "Swear It Again" for one week. It has been used by the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers as their Entrance song in the last three trips to the Super Bowl (Super Bowls XL, XLIII, and XLV). Right Here, Right Now has been used for Manchester City's entrance at the start of matches and in Shawn Levy's movie Big Fat Liar. The basic string melody of the song was sampled from the James Gang song "Ashes, the Rain & I". The lyrics "right here, right now" are a sample of Angela Bassett's voice from the film Strange Days at the 1:43:22 mark. The music video, created by Hammer & Tongs, shows a depiction of the process of evolution condensed into three and a half minutes. The beginning of the music video is set "350 billion years ago", and starts with a single cell organism in the ocean evolving into a jellyfish, a pufferfish, and then a predatory fish. It manages to eat a smaller fish before leaping up onto dry land. With a dinosaur visible in the background and an insect in front, it stays still for a few seconds before setting off and eating the insect.
The land-fish evolves into a small alligator as it enters a forest. It sees a tall tree, which it climbs up. Its hands are visibly evolving until it arrives at the top as a homo erectus-like ape. It jumps from the tree into an icy landscape, enduring a blizzard as it evolves into a larger, gorilla-like ape. At the end of a large cliff, the ape beats its chest as the camera zooms out to show a vast desert.
The ape jumps onto the ground, where it has evolved into a primate resembling an orangutan. A large storm blows away much of its hair, turning it into a human (at this point the timer at the bottom right slows dramatically). The human runs much faster and puts on some trousers and a shirt. When fully clothed, it turns into a modern human with a beard. The man walks through a city environment and eats some food (taken from a cardboard cutout of Fatboy Slim himself), at which point he loses the beard and turns into someone similar to the obese person from the cover of You've Come a Long Way, Baby. He finally sits down on a bench at night, at which point the video ends. The T-shirt he is wearing reads 'I'm #1 so why try harder'.
