Excuse Me Mr - Ben Harper

[Ivegotmymojoworkin]

why have all the stuido recordings been pulled from youtube????

[clayrad1]

Oh Yea

[MrMADORWOT]

I play guitar. I have the feel. I have seen enough.

[elfinarcher84]

Preach it Brotha Ben, preach it!!!

[paul7777ism]

Ben Harper ROCKS with his bad ass suit. All of you who can't deal, go find some soul, but honestly if this doesn't give you soul then nothing will. Your loss.

[WishinForTheMIssion]

Nearly heartbroken that they took down the "original video" of this. IT make a great political statement as well as a statement about "humanity* in general. Additionally, the very important environmental aspect. This song makes quite a profound statment. I miss that video, and wish I would have downloaded it at this juncture. Does anyone KNOW where I can find it?

[davehib1]

i think bens guitar is in the wrong tuning for this song, it sounds horrible. like a semitone down or something...oops!

[NpoleonBeat]

Best cover ever:

watch?v=dvnx-BlhFVA&feature=re­lmfu

[drivethrow]

i need to portal to 80s i feed up by commercial music help me out

[danosly]

One bad brother in a cowboy shirt .....good thing he is talented.....otherwise?

[MountainGyspy]

@danosly that shirt rocks!!!! ...and the pants too

[GcatsMama]

8 people have horrid taste in music. 

[UgaBugaWoga]

@GcatsMama yeah those ppl listen to those glitter pups such as Jason Derulo, Bieber, Taio Cruz all those muppets. I CANT STAND MUSIC THESE days.

[moneyquickeasy]

@UgaBugaWoga I love music these days. Just not the majority of mainstream trash. Ben Harper is still making music today, and he makes some of the best music. There are many great artists still out there, you just have to sift through all the garbage to find them. :)

[71biondos]

Ben Harper.................simply the best

[th1nkb4udo]

I just think he has an amzing voice..and uses it well in sync with every beat from every surronding instrument

[antho6484]

dedicated for the fucking society BP theyre are juste some fucking bastard

[magicshaner]

Does anybody know what kind of guitar ben is playing?

[mirkoso1986]

@magicshaner i think it's a Maton guitar

[Kloe004]

@magicshaner Mirkoso1986 is right, it's a Maton :) Very good guitars!!

[hwildeness]

I keep sharing this song with others...prophetic.

[dsmalf]

Dude is a freakin genius

[guitarslinger4]

Excuse me Mister but isn't that your oil in our sea. Speaks volumes for the past 50 plus days

[345989]

this song speaks loud in this time

[dodgecitie]

great song and all but what a message in the song very apt for these corrupt times,too bad we cant all follow up on it .

[danuggman]

Ben started his show Fri, by himself, on his chair, Wiessenborn in hand, and made all 3000 of us feel... and feelin good.... then brought us back w/ Fool 4 a lonesome Train... Magic...

[guitarslinger4]

@danuggman Glad to know he hasn't abandoned all the old material. The Relentless 7 stuff is just fine but not like The Innocent Criminals.

[danuggman]

@guitarslinger4 Bro it was a special tour, Please Bleed, he pulled some great stuff out, 1st 5 songs was just Ben, 1st few of the 5 song encore was just Ben... bout 1/2 the songs were Ben & R7... which to me... was just fine...

Peace

[nasygnog]

Ive seen enough to know that Ive seen to much.. beautiful...!!!

[guedesfigueiras]

[axelchem2]

Fucking phenom

These brothers always bring it correct.

Cheers!

jas patrick

[pecne]

The Innocent Criminals are just damn gooood

[brvsfn2004]

Absolutely love this song, i think i like the slower version better though hell idk they're both ben harper does it really matter? its the message that counts and its a great one regardless

[bassphantom94]

i really dig the dissonant chords he plays, it's almost jazz-like :)

[jklbailey2]

RIGHTEOUS!

[BLaZe071775]

[saintpeter13]

[pitznpie]

Amazing Ben is the best !!!!!!!!!!

[Tom19931]

Considering this song is on Fight for your mind, which was released 3 years prior to The Church with One Bell.

John Martyn covered this, not vice-versa.

[k4sp3r]

lol retard

[LittleWingTom1]

i guess pointing out inaccuracies does make me a retard.

[carloswompedrobebeto]

Tune fantastic lyrics Ben !!!!

[WickEdJellyFisH]

i dont rly like the original version ,its based on the instruments much more than on harpers voice, which is great , but the live versions are amazing ,perfekt singing combinating with rhythm ... 5*

[brick3seven]

wickedjellyfish...i actually like the original and this version.

[elneztor]
