  • I dont understand how someone can put this up as barry mguire and it NOT BE barry mcguire! Isnt that called lying? Total crap compared to original version!!

  • @toffeetigerkimba Actually, this (the Turtles version) came out before Barry McGuire's version. Neither Barry nor the Turtles wrote the song. It was written by a kid who was 19 years old at the time named P.F. Sloan. Barry's version did better on the charts, though.

  • As a child of the 60's, I really appreciate the effort on this project about one of the most important anthems of the era....

  • Important message!

  • Not barry not even close.

  • well, actually i think this was made to show how they felt about how 18 year olds were drafted when they even have the rights to vote and thats how the law about 18 year olds being able to vote as well changed. The time period probably was during the vietnam war? i dont know lol..

  • arabs love this song! gthey think it was wrote about them!

  • I have this song on my anti-war/60's70's protest movement, music project ^_^ It's on my profile

  • no, there are the byrds

  • i love this song ~ the original by Barry McGuire... this cover sounds a whole lot like The Turtles!!!

  • it is the turtles very rare

  • I love life. the more you love life and want to love everybody. Guess what, It will happen. Yeah, we control our own reality and our own destiny. That is why everytime your pissed off, nothing works out, you drop stuff, you get tired, you chemistry changes. Get happy now. yahhhhhhhhhh.

  • That's so much true. I just had this awareness - booom. That's the cool thing of being alive, it's your choice what to make it to.

  • i'd like to write more...but i'm on my way to donate clothing to the good folks at Salvation Army

  • 1:16 those two guys drinking coffee standing next to that poster. (shudder) Oooo, pure evil.

    There's nothing worse than two guys drinking coffee in front of an out-of-focus poster.

  • This sounds like the version by the Turtles.

  • I never knew that the Turtles covered this. I've only heard Barry McGuire's version. This isn't quite the same as the one from my youth. Almost, but somethings are a little different.

  • This song is from the Byrds

  • no this is the turtles

  • This is the Turtles. Barry McGuire wrote it and recorded it first but The Turtles covered it.

  • I believe P. F. Sloan wrote this.

  • I stand corrected ;)

  • Nice job on the video!

  • War is a racket

    General Smedely Butler

  • THe Turtles

  • Listen to "for what it's worth " buffalo springfield..the people that were around in the 1960's well they saw everything except the first and second world war...Stop Look and listen..

  • This sounds like the version by the Turtles. Are you sure about the source?

  • the lyrics of this song are so signifigant.why don't we just look and listen.take the wool out of the ears and put it in your mouth..get off the podium of who is right and who is wrong..i feel so powerless.when i hear this song i get angry. i love it .

  • You all have no idea - have you ever seen an Apocalypse? Fuck you, and all your naive feedback!

  • How old are you??? you are probably old enough to kill..but not for voting..we all know what is going on in the world . do you like wars..??? Stop being so angry and try to find some peace within ..or you will be just like the rest..don't let the fear take over.fear is what has fueled the Iraq war.

  • Im sorry to any amazing grace fans.

    But this songs words are such deeper,its our world we have to change it!

  • As a young child I lived through the terrible fear of the world coming to an end because of the Cuban missile crisis etc. The people of our generation went out on protest marches to try to force the governments to 'Make Peace Not War'.

    However, not much seems to have changed. Multinational corporations supply the weapons and so it's just a money-making machine.

    Will we ever have 'Peace In Our Time?'

  • of course not..

    peace is a utopia dream ...

    human are just like animals defending there territory.. its sad but true

  • I'm sorry to say i don't think it will be in this generation. Unfortunately this world

    has at lot of growing up to do. Especially

    most americans. We need to make ourselves responsible for the actions of our military/government. i believe time is short and there is no time for change.

    I hate to say this and sound like some

    crazy fanatic but we all need to repent

    Because we are really on the eve of destruction

  • the lyrics 2 dis song r amazing...

  • I'm only 17, but the stories my grandparents tell me today of the cold war and "the day the Earth stood still" scare the hell out of me. Listen , everyone my age, and take a lesson learned by those who came before us, you don't want to feel the feeling they are talking about. Peace is the answer.

  • Same with me mate, this song came out when i was 13, you lads dont know what fear means when 25,000 russian nukes could hit you at any moment.

  • I was 11 when this song came out. It was in the middle of the "cold war". You wan't to talk about being scared? You have no idea what fear is!!=Stefan=

  • shit version Barry Mcguire is bether

  • Very good. Good job.

  • Who sang this version?

  • I think this was the version by the Turtles -

  • It ain't Barry McGuire as the poster would like you to believe(read credits).

  • nice job but a couple of the pics didnt really fit, i liked the way you sang it though

  • i like the othr version better video though
