Synopsis

Scooter perform "Fuck The Millennium" with their trademark high-energy attack, surrounded by strobing lights, packed crowds, and rapid backstage footage. The video moves between the stage and the frantic world behind it, emphasizing the group's live-show intensity rather than presenting a separate narrative. H.P. Baxxter dominates the performance with animated gestures and shouted commands, while Rick J. Jordan and Axel Coon appear amid the electronic spectacle. The result is a compact snapshot of Scooter's late-1990s concert persona as the millennium approaches.

Factoids & Trivia

  • Released in November 1999, the song was the second single from the album "Back to the Heavyweight Jam."
  • The video's emphasis on concert footage reflects Scooter's reputation as a live act. Rather than building a fictional storyline, it presents the band through stage action, crowd response, and backstage glimpses.
  • The video version runs for about 4 minutes and 12 seconds, differing in length from the single and album versions.
  • "Fuck The Millennium" became one of Scooter's strongest international chart performers of the period, reaching the top 10 in Belgium, Sweden, and Finland.
  • The track draws on several earlier records. Its main sampled material includes "The Passion" by Technohead and "Wheels" by The String-A-Longs, while the shouted title phrase comes from the KLF track "Fuck the Millennium."
  • The video's release places it firmly within the late-1990s wave of millennium-themed pop culture, but its deliberately abrasive title and aggressive performance style make it more of a rejection of the occasion than a celebration of it.
