"Hotride" was the sixteenth single released by the British electronic music trio The Prodigy on 1 November 2004. It was the second single from the album Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned and did not enter the UK charts as the CD was released in EP format with 3 additional 'B-sides' and so did not conform to chart regulations.
The track featured vocals by Juliette Lewis and borrowed lyrics from Fifth Dimension's "Up, Up and Away (In My Beautiful Balloon)".

[edit] Music video
The single's music video was directed by Daniel Levi, but was rejected by Liam Howlett due to the amount of pointless violence.
The video concentrates on a group of Asian (Japanese) children going on a rampage. The kids first vandalize a nearby automobile, take pills of an unknown substance (possibly drugs), kill a random civilian and then steal a vehicle and a police unit cruiser. They also kidnap a policeman and put him in the trunk of the car, and subsequently kidnap a woman before heading to an office building, where they knock down the guards and destroy the offices. The kidnapped woman then escapes and calls the police. An anti-terrorist squad enters the building and catches the kids.
