  • AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA Morley taking the piss and the scousers all feeling sorry for themselves AS USUAL

    Morley is a legend ANOTHER BEATLES COVER BAND

  • @SAIGONDISCO but they never covered any Beatles songs. This is a Buddy Holly song.

  • @SAIGONDISCO Yea, in your mind maybe.

  • Comment removed

  • Seen Lee perform lately? The smack has destroyed him and his talent. It's a crying shame.

  • "don't we all."FUCKIN HORRIBLE SEPTIC JELOUS MANC BASTARD FUCKIN DIE YOU CUNT.

  • that misreble dour manc morley should be fuckin strung up

  • Has Mavers been knighted yet?

    Of course, not.

    Meh.

  • Lennon would approve!

  • Buddy Holly!

  • One of the best covers of this tune I've heard. Mavers, Powers and band rock!

  • They really belong in another era - not that is a bad thing.  It's just that they look like they are from the '60s-'70s.

  • @mithrinwow

    Yeah, I think the same whenever I see them. They kind of look Rolling Stone-ish and sound like The Beatles.

  • Comment removed

  • They could have been contenders, could have been massive. Such a shame.

  • I'm sure this has already been said, but that host is a sarcastic douche.

  • What badasses. Buddy Holly would be proud.

  • Paul Morley, dumping on the young La's the way Dean Martin dissed the Stones in the 60's.

    Now both bands are legends and the hosts are legendary hacks.

    Hahahahahaha

  • Thats just class btw!!

  • @kevyrob13 Amen Mate!!!

  • You sad cunt!

  • i agree lad.

    Paul Morley! Chip & shoulder come too mind.

    Isn't it true Ian Curtis nearly battered him once for opening his arse?

  • This is Circa '90!

    Noel must of been what, in his mid 50's? Probably ripping off the likes of the video you have commented on even then.

  • your right there mate! i mean i love oasis but lee mavers is a cut above! noel once said that we are finnishing what the la's started! noel is a great song writer but Mavers has the originality factor! Mavers is definatly the tourmented genius! to be truely gited you must have an element of madness! a certain look! something that sets you appart from the crowd! noel is good! Mavers is better!

  • Learn to write and more importantly SPELL properly you git before expousing such utter crap!!!! Mavers has the originality factor?? (That'll be the day??) Yes very ORIGINAL. Noel Gallagher is BY FAR the best Rock & Pop Rock songwriter in the last 15-17yrs.... countless hits , tens of millions of records sold , wall to wall awards and now soon to become Britains biggest solo artist. The La's - ONE HIT WONDERS.... no comparison mate!!!!!!

  • opinions (such as yours) are like arseholes mate, everyone has one! now i could have an opinion and people can disagree, thats fine, music is subjective but as with most oasis die hard fans (i love oasis but i know they are limited) they get all touchy about anyone who says that another band is better! noel is good, very good but for me Mavers who wrote, liberty ship, son of a gun, there she goes (the perfect pop song) is better! end of.......

  • Never mentioned Oasis. I thought the comparison here was between Mavers & Noel. Saying Mavers has the "originality factor" , when he is so OBVIOUSLY influenced by & in some cases completely rips off The Beatles , is taken it a bit far. There she goes is a great song agreed but it's the only hit they ever had.... and if that's any yardstick then Mr Gallagher wins hands down.

  • if anyone is ripping the beatles off it's mr gallagher! the one discription of oasis sum them up perfectly "their the beatles with distortion"! noel's whole eithos is beatles orintated! mavers wrote the la's only album and that absolutly is the best debut album ever made! noel is a great songwriter and thats a fact! but i prefer the la's! oasis tought me how to play the guitar and mavers tought me true geniuses have massive flaws!

  • @Garethfeb16 rite dikhed go find me 5 songs which are beatles ripp offs from oasis! honestly go do it i bet u cant find any ! i am the walrus dont count its a cover go on u fkin twat. there she goes only gd song they got!

  • octopuses garden- Whatever

    shock of the lightning - I'll come back again

    Supersonic - My sweet lord (george harrison)

    and so on and so on! to rip someone off isn't the worst crime in the world! but noel does it very well! supersonic is the my sweet lord riff, shock of the lighting i asure you is the intro to i'll come back again! whatever is a reworking of two songs but fits nicely around octopusses garden, ciggarettes and alcohol-get it on! it's endless! i love oasis but they are limited!

  • dont compare oasis to the la's or the beatles mate. dont get me wrong defo maybe is a top top album but now oasis are a joke band noel shud av done what lee mavers done an jibbed it after one album

  • couldnt agree more mate. oasis are alright for two albums but mavers is GOD

  • @merch1892 the stone roses are one of the only bands that top the la's

  • noel gallaghers songs are good but his lyrics are completely shit

  • @theselector well sed son

  • nice one son! managing to fit dikhed? and fkin twt in the same sentence? teach me the ways of the underclass my friend!!! mavers writes better songs than noel! not as many but if you know anything about music, which i don't think you do! then he is regaurded as a wasted genius!!! a lost tallent! oasis are a good band but maybe should have stopped 10 years ago! but if you say that to any oasis fan they instantly turn up a defencive shield and retort to their cave man ways!! as you have!!!

  • @Garethfeb16 did u find me 5 songs? thought not. and a wasted genious is no GENIOUS! end of!

  • you want five tunes that have been ripped off from the beatles??? cock!!!

    ok no problem, i'll get back to you in a bit with a list of ten songs that are re-workings of old beatles song, beatles songs sung with distortion and also rip offs of other bands including t-rex, david bowie, paul weller, the stone roses, the jam, and so on and so on! how old are you little fella? 12-13??? grow a set mate and get a lead singer for your band because they are sh*te.....

  • @Garethfeb16 noo i dont want trex david bowie or paul weller rip off or stone roses or anything else i sed the beatles. and not oh they worked it around this song cus u cud do that all day cus chord changes for all bands are fairly similar. get 5 blatent rip offs of beatles to oasis! or if you think you r so good 10 blatent rip offs.

  • blatent rip offs such as stealling john lennons pronunciation of rain? does that count?? stealling lyrics such as yellow submarine, fool on the hill and i feel fine, na na na (a beatles hey jude reference) start a revolution from my bed, wonderwall fu**ing on and on little fella!!! i could tell you many more but the word count doesn't allow it! f**k oasis! they were a great band but they were flawed!!! the la's produce a great album, one of the best of all time! accept it dingus :-)

  • not rain sorry, but the way he sung shiiiine in rain!!!!

  • @Garethfeb16 exactlly cunty bollocks you couldnt find any songs what actually were ripped of like chords haha! nly a few little lyrics which are refernced! mate accept it you couldnt do it! dont blame it on the word count lmfao you joke! no not fuk oasis fuck u! las are only remember for 1 song and you fukin no it! accept it DINGUS!

  • the 1 song you talk about is possably the greatest pop song of all time! perfect infact! if you listen to stuff like liberty ship, son of a gun, I.O.U and have any understanding of music you can see these guys are gifted! as for the beatles, with the help of buddy holly they changed the face of music!!! then hendrix etc. oasis have some great songs but they copy the beatles so closely with the way they write, the chords/lyrics they use! last message mate!! this is getting boaring!!

  • i'm bang with you on that kid..got almost everythin goin of the la's hopefully..not gonna spend much more on em anyways like..nice one ;)

  • @Garethfeb16 its not no liveforever tho is it

  • what isn't??? there she goes? come on fella! i mean when i was growing up live forever has been and will always be one of the anthems i listen to and sing when it comes on in a pub but there she goes is perfect!! the chord sequence, the voice, the sound! i love oasis mate!! don't get me wrong, but the la's are better! they are the best band since the beatles! if you love oasis to thats fine! noel once said we are finnishing what the la's started, he never got close mate!

  • noel gallagher hasnt wrote a decent tune since 1995 mate he couldnt lace mavers's boots. give ur head a shake

  • Thank GOD

  • Who is this douchebag host?

    Lee Mavers rules.

  • @Thejbirdy his name is arrogant TWAT the second, the first being Stuart Maconie, lol. When they meet theirs an unrelenting cloud of smugness, as potent as the smog of London.

  • @TJmoneymaker13 Yes I don't understand TJ, why would this stifling git want to insult his own guests? What a maroon.

  • @Thejbirdy the host is paul morley a fuckin orrible snotty manc twat. they play holly tunes when they rehearse ...dont we all...well you dont paul you miserable cunt the fella is a top class arse hole couldnt play a note if he try'd

  • @Mavers1980 I think that just about sums him up my friend! He obviously shows contempt for Liverpudlians as well, what a wanker.

    Cheers,

    JBirdy

  • Paul Morley.

  • @Thejbirdy  for real man

  • @Thejbirdy for real man la, la la, la la yes the las! give me a break.

  • @Thejbirdy

    some scumy manc with a turned lip!

  • @Sexpistols100 Hahaha...well said!

  • The best cover I ever heard. Thanks for posting. 5 stars from

  • Oh my God! Is that Paul Morley at the beginning?! He's eaten a bit since then hasn't he?!

  • This is a really good cover of this song, i didnt know what to expect at 1st but its great cover

  • I never thought these guys would play this tune so well. Nice job!

  • Agree with you sir .

    I Like Oasis ,but, i see what you-re saying.

    Mavers is Just on another level in the voice department and on a further level, eclectic understanding and feeling; vibe .

    PEACE .

  • noel gllagher robbed lee mavers blind....

  • noel gallagher is a fuckin knobhead

  • cool

  • what ashame they never broke into the us mainstream i only discovered this version 2 years ago through a tv commercial

  • Any one know whos drummin n whos on the other guitar???

  • the drummer is a lad called "chris sharrock" who went on to play with world party, robbie bastard williams, and he has recently joined oasis as their new drummer.

  • was actually first recorded 22nd July, 1956... the nashville sessions....

  • Yeh for Decca

  • yup :)

    exactly six yrs before i was born :P

    good cover, innit?

  • I'd never seen or heard them cover this before!

  • n by the way id rather listen 2 a can bein kicked down an alley than listen 2 ian curtis voice,he couldnt carry a tune in a fuckin bag,fly dance? getover ya fuckinself lad,in the graveyard of great singers/writers,dream on

  • I'm from Manchester and I like both bands equally. I don't hate scousers. Why do you hate mancs?

  • because he's a closed-minded piece of shit. (I'm from Bolton but I live in Merseyside now - so I can't afford to hate scousers anyway.....lol)

  • Yeah, he talks like one!

  • mate thats perennial manc prick paul morley,he hates scousers n we h8 him.paul if ya readin this how the fuck av u gotta a career now tw's dead,fuck off n keep wankin over joy div apart from no luv lost most over rated band ever

  • Who's that fuggin knob introducing them?

    Bellend.

    The La's are amazing.

  • only lee mavers and co. could play an old rockabilly standard and still make it sound fresh. genius!

  • woah buddy holly is fresh! you must be thinking of some oldie like bill haley

  • Fuckin brilliant, come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!

  • Great cover! Long live Buddy Holly and the La's!

  • tiger i agree morley is little tosser

  • Truely excellent version of a Holly Classic !

  • what a wanker Morley is...

  • Thank you for posting. The La's and Buddy Holly both---wow what a combination.

    RIP Buddy Holly.

  • I love the La's. After the Beatles, they are my favorite group. I can tell they have a lot of Beatles influence.

    Great job!!

  • soz liverpool larry

  • sounds like a country song

  • well, buddy holly originally wanted to be a country singer...and well, rockabilly came directly from country, so that's a fair statement.

  • :-O

    Brilliant!

  • Pure Class :)

  • Thank you for sharing these!

  • i think it might seem a bit forced because there's a discussion prior to this when Paul Morley asks them if they like Buddy Holly, and The La's are adamant that they're Eddie Cochran fans. I think they only play this song to wind Morley up!

  • fuckin love the la's.

  • Unbelievable band! I thought the world was going to change when they arrived. I thought wrong and Kurt Cobain made sure of that.

    I'm surprised at how "stiff" this song is performed though. All of the stops are too forced. That's rare for the La's.

  • Starfinder, you're a star mate! Thanks for the La's videos.

  • It's funny how the Liverpool accent can sometimes sound like the American accent.

  • thank you so much

  • Hey man, the last hour of watching your La's videos has practically brought me to tears. Just amazing. Thanks so much for uploading them!!
