In the U.S., the hit version of "The Snake" was released in 1968, on Johnny Rivers' Soul City Records. (Rivers had released his own version of the song on his 1966 album ...And I Know You Wanna Dance). Wilson's single made the Top 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1968 and, due to exposure on the UK Northern Soul scene, made the UK Singles Chart in August 1975 when reissued, reaching No. 41 in September.[4] The success of "The Snake" on the northern soul nightclub circuit has led to it being ranked 4 of 500 top northern soul singles and for it to appear on over 30 pop and northern soul compilation albums.[5][6][7] The song was re-released in 1989 as a B-side to a re-release of "Just Don't Want to Be Lonely" by The Main Ingredient.[2] Wilson's recording of "The Snake" was also featured in a Lambrini television advertisement in the UK.[8]

The song was featured in season 4, episode 25 of the television show Northern Exposure, "Old Tree". It was sung by Cynthia Geary in her role as the character Shelly Tambo. The episode originally aired on May 24, 1993.[12]

The song gained renewed attention during the campaign for the 2016 United States presidential election. Republican candidate Donald Trump read its lyrics at several campaign rallies to illustrate his position on illegal immigration, claiming that the decision to allow people claiming refugee status to enter the United States would "come back to bite us", as happened to the woman who took in the snake in the song.[13] "The Snake" has been characterized as "a celebration of black culture and a repudiation of racism", and suggestions have been made that the snake in the song refers to a white person.[by whom?][14] Two of Brown's seven children asked Trump to stop using their late father's song, telling the media: "He's perversely using 'The Snake' to demonize immigrants" and that Brown "never had anything against immigrants".[15] Despite a cease and desist letter, Trump has continued reciting the lyrics at rallies as recently as June 2021,[16] and again in September[17] and December 2023.[18]

The internet is helpless in the face of Mumford & Sons's latest lyrical enigma. What in the world does "Snake Eyes" from Wilder Mind mean after all? No one seems to know. The internet is a song interpretation wasteland. Thin, wavering voices call for clarity. But no one speaks... Until now.

What do you think? Before reading my post, take a guess yourself based on the lyrics and music video. If you need a push in the right direction, remember that "snake eyes" is a gambling reference and slang for really bad luck. [Quick thanks to Co-Worker Brently for explaining that to me today!]

First of all, the title suggests either gambling or an extremely untrustworthy person. Per Wikipedia, "Because [snake eyes] is the lowest possible roll, and will often be a loser in many dice games, such as craps, the term has been employed in a more general usage as a reference to bad luck." In games like four square, snake eyes is used also to refer to a tactic in which the server looks one way while directing the ball another way. We can conclude that Mumford was betrayed, and the consequences were devastating.

Mumford returns to the title's imagery in the chorus with "[i]t's in the eyes." Now when he looks into this woman's eyes, he sees that she "will always be danger," something that he didn't realize at first. He gambled on a relationship with her, but found out that her eyes had been "snake eyes" all along. While they may have been beautiful, much as an actual snake's eyes can be, their uniqueness was not their beauty but the risk and danger they represented. He sings, "We had it tonight," and asks, "Why do you leave it open?" Even though they seemed to have a strong relationship and it felt good at one point, she turned her back on him.

In the third verse, Mumford asks, "How does the earth around your feet / Just slip away?" These lines suggest a supernatural quality to the woman's beauty. The rest of the world slipping away is a common way of showing this in relationship-focused lyrics. (On the other hand, Fiancee April did suggest that the earth falling away could represent all the security that Mumford associated with her.) The next line is contentious with some lyric sites quoting it as "A bandit that greets you in the night" and others as "An abandon that greets you in the night." I think "bandit" makes more sense because it reinforces the idea of Mumford and the girl being together at night while promoting the idea of him having been betrayed or stolen from. He finishes the verse, "With snake eyes, the most precious kind," suggesting that this "bandit" is the girl he's singing to.

Overall, the song is addressed by Mumford to a woman who has betrayed him cruelly. He risked a lot and in loving her, lost everything. Part of him wishes to have her back, but he knows that it really never would work.

Welcome to the year 2019 where someone is offended no matter what you say or do! Our Carolina boy, Eric Church, performed "The Snake" during Sunday night's ACM Awards alongside Best New Female Artist, Ashley McBryde. Their performance had an ominous feel but I personally liked the new song. Meanwhile on Twitter..... some country fans thought Eric Church was disrespecting women.

Eric explains the meaning behind the song in the video below. "The Snake" is about politicians who care more about keeping people worked up so they can keep their position rather having the heart for the people they represent.

With any game where most of the students remain seated, I highly suggest making sure they have some other action to perform beyond singing. In this case, I would ask them to pat/tap/clap the rhythm of the song as they sing it. Since the snake will be tapping the steady beat, this will give students both a visual and kinesthetic example of syncopation.

In Metal Gear Solid 3, Harrell's vocals from the song will play during the lengthy ladder-climbing sequence, in which Naked Snake makes his way up to the Krasnogorje mountaintop. Another version of "Snake Eater," unofficially known as the "The Boss Mix," will play during the fight with The Boss when five minutes are left in the fight. At that point, the song will play up to the chorus and then replay from the first verse with vocals. After that, the song will play through normally and conclude with the dramatic sting. Another version of "Snake Eater" also exists, known as the "Abstracted Camouflage" mix. Bars from the final instrumental portion of the song are also heard immediately after Ocelot calls the DCI.

In Metal Gear Solid 4, the opening drum beats from "Snake Eater" will sometimes play when the player equips the Patriot. The full song itself is also used as the music for the third phase of the Final Battle between Solid Snake and Liquid Ocelot on top of Outer Haven. It can be unlocked as an iPod song by collecting all emblems, and will give gameplay bonuses when played during combat.

A piano version of the song is played in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker during flashbacks relating to The Boss as well as during both instances where Big Boss attempts to remove the memory drives. It is an unlockable song for the Walkman.

"Snake Eater" is also available as a collectible cassette tape in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, found at Outpost 21 in the Angola-Zaire border region. In addition, the song, or rather, the variant used for the final five minutes of the battle against The Boss in Metal Gear Solid 3, will also be made available for BGM in the version 1.02 update for Metal Gear Online 3, titled "MGS3 THE BOSS.

Donald Trump read the lyrics to Al Wilson's 1968 R&B song \"The Snake\" during a rally in Iowa Tuesday night to illustrate what might happen if the United States allows Syrian refugees into the United States.

Donald Trump, the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024, made a habit of quoting from the lyrics of a controversial song apparently warning against immigration during his first successful campaign for the American presidency.

Southeast Asia has a great diversity of snakes, but we still have much to learn about them. Anne Devan-Song, currently a PhD candidate in the USA, shares some of her experiences of working with snakes in Southeast Asia and why this region needs more attention.

Yes, for the most part. My undergraduate degree focused on molecular and cell biology, but I gravitated towards the environmental sciences. My Masters focused on wildlife management and human-wildlife conflict. My PhD incorporates field biology with quantitative tools using several different wildlife systems, including snakes!

I am working on an integrative approach to studying snakebite envenoming, which is a neglected tropical disease. I also recently worked with an undergraduate student (Soyeon Kim) for her honours thesis at Oregon State University, where she explored mathematical models to characterize snakebite risk. e24fc04721
