  • Who needs drugs? Just listen to this song and it will get you high

  • This song is just brilliant. I think he recorded the whole track by himself. Btw I think this is called 1983...A Merman I Shall Turn To Be

  • I agree.....one of his best yet one of his lesser known.....<3

  • metallica took so much stuff from this

  • its too bad that our friends can't be with us today

  • awesomely amazing! most excellent. one of the best tunes ever. walk the outer style.

  • i think its spelt battered, but who cares,great song, jimi is the best ever!

  • when i say those naked guys i fell off my chair and was like WHAT THE FUCK great song

  • Wierd, same abdulfez, different attitude. Either you have someone hacking your account or you're schizophrenic.

    One minute you are all nice and respecting a black man for singing of love, but on other threads you are spewing out race hatred and promoting war.

    So, hacked or schizo? As we have had a few run ins before, me and you abdulfez, I suspect the latter.

    Did you hear about talmudhater? I'm afraid he's not on here anymore.

  • Damn, this song brings back memories of house parties when I was in high school...and the first time I smoked hash!

    "Jimi, do you smoke?"

    "Nooooooooo.....ooosh"

  • jimi's music gives me chills

  • Shivers up my spine...

  • NO! My psychedelic man :D

    my jimi!

    thanks for posting! Peacexx

  • ...I can see Atlantis full of cheer!

  • Thanks Indibelle, one of the best not only of Jimi's but IMHO all songs. It's epic, lyrical and extremely dynamic. It is unfortunate that "1983" apparently can't be posted in entirety because the climactic ending is the finishing touch. All should seek the entire song. It wasn't performed live largely because Jimi not only wrote and arranged it, but performed vocals, rhythm and lead as well as bass (not Noel)and only Mitch is in accompaniiment

    thanks again

    enorbet

  • Thank you so much,indibelle, for your nicely done vid and one of my favorite songs of all time. It's a shame that it apparently had to be abbreviated since it is akin to a novel with the last climactic chapter missing. I urge all, even those who may have been underwhelmed by the abbreviated version offered here, to listen to the full version asap. Note that Jimi wrote it and performed bass, rhythm and lead guitar and vocals. Mozart? meh! Thanks again

  • This is the kind of song with that riff you wish would go on forever.

  • best song on electric ladyland... my second favorite is house burnin down

  • I am a jimi lover !!! this song is new to me but it is him - Thank you for something I have never heard on album! and i would like to say-------- not in love man!!!!!!!!!

  • great video

  • this imo is such an under rated song. one of his best imo. probably my favorite. of course he has many other songs with amazing solos like machine gun but this is more about his song writing abilities and the way he plays with sound.

  • The best Hendrix track ever.

    2nd one, All Along The Watchtower

    Third Are You Experienced?

    Foruth Hey Joe and so on.

  • my friend j***** dosent like jimi hendrix.

  • Wow ,sad for him!

  • whats worse is my freind thinkd Page is 10x better than Jimi! i mean really?

  • this video is really good.

  • this song is so deep.

  • very cool.

  • You're welcome Babe!!!

  • Indibelle, thanks for posting this video!!! You're awesome!!!

  • WOW thanks!

  • lennon &yoko BARF!!

  • Perfect.

  • Wow this be something special.

  • very true you can really feel an ideal intellectual happiness in the songs - all along the wathctower and hey baby

  • i also wait for the next great musician equivalent to hendrix (or dylan for that matter), but you got to have in mind that this blind kid and almost every talanted "youtube-phenomenon" just plays covers.. sure he plays covers great, no doubt, but hendrix created a whole new genre for crying out loud..

  • Exactly, I mean sure I'll like someone if they create songs as great as this but...for now...I'm sticking with Hendrix. Perhaps one day someone will truly usurp his throne as (in my mind) the greatest musician that ever lived.

    Also...Really whats with the picture of John Lennon and Yoko Ono...I mean I can't watch this video in public anymore because of that :(

  • Instant Epical Psychedelic Classic, indeed!

  • I hate how people this Jimi is just a guitar god...no, he was a lyrical genious. He was the second Dylan, and I don't think we'll ever see someone who could possibly match the otherworldly spell he can create with his music.

  • Awesome and I agree fully!! Jimi had some sulful lyrics.

  • this is fucking amazing, both musically and lyrically. still to this day no one can touch this guy. it makes me laugh the way these new bands and pop stars act like they are geniuses, someone should show them this song then they'll realise they aint good enough to even polish jimis guitar.

  • This song and album are great. One of my favorite albums. It's really different then any other album you listen to.

  • Used to have this album Eletric Ladyland during my high school days (class of 99), still remember this song note by note.

    Thanx for posting. :)

  • this is one of those songs (like most of his) that have a very revoulutionary feel to them

    Jimi Hendrix Rocks!

  • wonderful

  • the sea...is..

    STRRRRAIIIIGHT

    UP

    AAAHEEAAAAAD

  • love this song havent heard it in a long time brings back acid trips..........

  • great song

  • Unbelievable...moves oceans with his guitar

  • A lot of great guitarists sprung up in the 70's, 80's and 90's - and still none can compare. What a badass.

  • siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­ckkkkkk song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dude this song is fucking amazing... in every aspect!.. i fucking love it/// hendrix was an amazing songwriter.... and isnt not just that its one of the trippiest songs EVER CREATED (im stoned)... its just BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is a pretty trippy song...the 15 min voodoo chile is just as pleasing, trust me.

  • OH MY GOD!!! I love this song... they just don't make 'em like this anymore. RIP Jimi.

  • This song is amazing.

    Hendrix is god.

  • So free so unique so original so Hendrix...

    Didnt Metalica rip off this song?

  • I'm not sure but they better have not no one can play this song better than Jimi....they can't even be in his same aura.

  • i wouldnt say they ripped it off... but the lead line from unforgiven 2 is similar to the lead line in this song

  • @awesomejohnnet Ni But hear the intro of Children of The Damned by Iron Maiden.

    Huge fans as they are.

  • @SweetFire96 Yeah your right, they definately jacked the intro nd you can also hear a slight variation of that riff too, hey Jimi influenced all those guys man, he is definately the blueprint

  • don't think so@awesomejohnnet

  • @MsPall35

    Everyone and their cousin has ripped of Hendrix in some way...

    Jimis inspiration has powered rock musics creativity since the 70's till today.

    many camouflage it, some admit it, but those of us with ears and experience know what is what.

  • unbelievable...unreal..words can't even describe it-- damn you, jimi, why'd you leave us so early...

  • i keep hoping this song will get the classical treatment by an orchestra. Or a jazz quintet. Either would be superb and a step toward giving Jimi credit for his songwriting genius, not just guitar work

  • This song makes me miss him soooooo bad!! I love you so much Mr Hendrix!! it is unreal my love for you !!!

    Love you Jimi!! (thanks for posting!)

    Liza xxx

  • my favorite hendrix song. nice job.

  • Mine too!

  • This song is so good you can't put into words:)

  • i could have done WITHOUT seeing john and yoko in there

  • sorry this is my vid and although Yoko isn't anyone favorite she was apart of John Lennon so we must repect her and her lover's beauty.

  • lol yea me too.... was kinda subliminal...

  • Well, 'course the movie here's Woodstock.

    And he wanted to play it right there, but as he said, "he forgot the words", and he gave 'Hey Joe' as an encore ("Don't you know, that you get kinda tired..?" yes, he was QUITE tired, what a shame)

  • cool riff--jimi always had a dark edge to him...great stuff!!

  • One of the most inspiring songs ever. True genius; maybe too much so to live on this metaphysical plane. "Its (death is) staight ahead...so my darling & I make love in the sand...""

  • The 1983 is a part of the song name, not the year.

  • Forever!

  • Excellent!

  • does anyone know if his bitch sister allowed for the new Hendrix movie to take place? I heard Tarantino is directing....he better not screw this up

  • hendrix died in 1969/70 so why does it say 1983

  • The multi-dimensional, multi-talented singularity - Jimi Hendrix.

    "Well it's too bad - that our friends, can't be with us today - well it's, too bad."

  • Such a great song.

  • "we take a last look -

    through killing doors -"

  • "Before our heads go under, we take a last look through the killing doors -

    Of the out of style - out of style!"

  • Wow....great song and video. It's erie isn't it.

    maybe i'm crazy

  • I like the confused faces of the audience at 4:37..LOL!! It looks like they are saying "WTF is this??" I can imagine though as Hendrix must have seemed like a space alien back then.

  • thankyou and thanks for noticing

  • he never played this song live!!!!

  • he never preformed this song live... hey just pasted the song under some footage of Woodstock

  • Jimi never played this song LIVE damn

  • this is the best rock's song all time, but I would like to listening full version

  • Moon, Turn the Tides, Gently Away...

  • MASTERPIECE!!!!

  • dude this is my favorite hendrix song

  • OOPS - meant to write "Before our heads go under....we take a last look at the killing noise of the out-of-style" Incredible music - awesome lyrics.

  • that's alright man we all knew what you meant...to save you the embrassment I deleted the one you OOPs on lol!

  • your welcome

  • Another one of Jimi's great songs that has the ability to transport our spirit and mind into another level of experience.

  • This is the most awesome song ever!  I used to listen to this song over and over as a young girl and I still do now... It by far is the best song of Hendrix.. Thanks for adding it on here!

  • Headphones on this song is a must.

  • this is my favourite song, jimi was so creative, the really missed out when he died.

  • true that man

  • man, what a song. i got this feeling running through the body. these goosebumps. wow. look at the lyrics, people. i dont have the words, i can just describe the song as 'wow'. jimi is a great composer. thank you for posting.

  • he was really into that under water shit

  • nice nice video...uhm where did you get that last piece? I only have about 10 seconds of hendrixs talking..

  • yeah the last piece I cut out some of the stuff he said, it's from the introduction at Woodstock before he perform the song Izabella. And the video is at woodstock for the Stars Spangled Banner.

  • he neva got to perform wu he wanted cuz everyone wanted the hit singles.... he had so many better songs on his album like, voodoo chile from electric ladyland, not voodoo child(slight return)which was also a excellent song...

  • i wish he woulda performed this song... this song is gorgeous

  • This song means so much to me. Its so powerful

  • most beautiful song ever, behind electric lady land

  • I jus saw a bunch of Jimi Hendrix memoribilia at the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio. It seriously gave me fucking goosebumps. If any of you can make it out there, it's def. somethin to see if ur a rock and roll fan. any fan of music at that

  • Yeah I'm about to live in Akron,Ohio and Cleveland is like an hour away. That is one of the many places I plan on checking out.

  • that was the most beautiful thing i've ever witnessed

  • this is awesome

  • my favorite

  • Well its too bad that our friends can't be with us today. its too bad

  • This is my favorite Hendrix song of all.

  • my favorite song of all time, seriously, there is something magical about the notes and progession

  • that's because hendrix was simply magic...all his music was.

  • GREAT SONG! My favorite Hendrix song!

  • what a song...this one stands out on electric ladyland, i love the ending with his woodstock explaination i think it is...anyhow great song choice but i just think u shouldnt got more Jimi footage in there...no worries good job

  • I know I wish that I had more pics, but at the time I had just gotten my labtop and hardly had pics or anything for that matter. I used what little I did had. That's what makes this video very personal. It was my first...ever!!! Thankyou for your comment; it was greatly appreciated.

  • Robig

    I still love his music every day! I miss him somuch!

  • "1983" is one of my FAVORITE songs off Electric LadyLand - close to: Come On; House Burning Down & Gypsy Eyes - but this IS THE ONE TO PLAY when you're all stressed-out & have just 'medicated yourself' & want to relax: Play the whole side of the lp, side 3 I believe...

    This Jimi track is about 1,200 years ahead of it's time! Thanx for the post "indibelle!"

  • jimi at his best thanks

  • i like this song nice vid thx

  • nice one. great tune

  • great job man this is really cool
