  • They say Elvis is the King of Rock'n'Roll,love Elvis,but for me the King of Rock'n'Roll is Chuck Berry,why,well,he wrote his own songs and just listen to this song,wow,what a great song!

  • chuck berry really got the blues. it was flowing down his blood

  • Unbelievably wonderful. For those who can hear this, that's reward enough. For those who can't, oh. Well. You should abandon us here and go where strums and streaks your heart. Happy listening, all!

  • @TheSatanas666 Ever heard a little tune by the name of The Six Strings That Drew Blood? That "Honky" got some blues.

  • @mbrinton dats the most fag song ever come on

  • @AeRoSmItH101112

    Of course you do... you do everything the best don't you.

    Mate... there are good Blues musicians and bad Blues musicians all over the world. YES..Even in America !

    There are people in other countries that play the Blues every bit as good as Americans, most of them nobody has heard of. To make such a bold statement is both ignorant and disrespectful to the spirit of music.

    Pull your Red,White and Blue head out of your arse and listen to what the whole world has to offer.

  • @SONGSTICKS ok fag

  • @AeRoSmItH101112

    Good answer..well done !!

    America must be so proud of you.

  • at one time,this song make me cried,it just feel so sad and good to hear to the blues..

  • mean old world its the title, i think its from sonny boy i, little walter did a great version to

  • Thats good Blues for me. Thk's

  • many people don't realize that blues comes from country music. where do think all them blues players learned how to play guitar, harmonica and piano from? from watching country artists who taught them. that's why the song structure is the same pretty much except blues has non twangy singing to oppose country.

  • @lester5192 You got that backwards - Irish and English immigrants brought folk music to America (and the SOUTH) which mixed with African rhythm brought over which is where the Blues came from. Country music just took a straight line from folk music (which by then morphed to bluegrass and mountain music) with a little blues flair... Nowadays, you just sing anything with a southern accent and people think it's country. Bluegrass is true country music in my mind...

  • @deweypug the only thing that doesn't make sense is how and why did they have african music influence? being there was no recordings or radio in the country and western days and i would assume they wouldn't listen to afican music. what year did this happen around then? the european influence makes sense. but in those days i would assume the music scene was only local.

  • @lester5192 asshole blues its based on the african scale, and the original forms of piano and guitar existed on africa from thousands years ago, the slaves of south came from mali where they had a culture on string instruments even before they migrated to europe and the white race was born

  • @TheSatanas666 LOL african scale. nice guess, idiot, but way off. i figured some cry baby racist fuck would bitch about race like the common bitch. LOL. country and blues were born in america, faggot. LOL. you could say all music descended from india too, but there is no proof of that. LOL blues came from africa! LOL that's funny...i guess so did hip hop if you think about the tribal dance and beats they've had. straight outta kenya, yo. don't you have a bus to catch to your dead end job? fag ;)

  • @lester5192 you stupid fuck do you even got any knowledge of history can you even play a fuckin instrument? humanity came from africa not only music

  • @TheSatanas666 LOL you're mentally ill. what? you got a fucking time machine? or do you believe everything scientists tell you that they want you to believe like a chump? you're every politicians dream. LOL. music was started right away cuz it's human nature. where that life started? nobody knows. go ahead and believe all the BS history books they want you to believe to comply with their system. personally i think human life started with the Eskimo's. LOL.

  • @lester5192 the african scale its not a guess its the fundation of blues rock etc. study some and dont put yourself in shame ignorant peasent.

  • @TheSatanas666 that's a nice theory. you know you don't have to eat everything your system feeds you like a chump. but i guess some like being a good soldier, do as you say believe what your told. LOL.

  • @lester5192 Your comments are appalling and show how truly ignorant you really are. Better just to quit while you're ahead. Please.

  • @schnurrar maybe you should learn how to play and then you might learn about the real history of music. instead of some white washed shit. lol.

  • @lester5192 white people want us to believe dat niggers inveted almost every music??? you so stupid man, and disrespectfull to black culture and heritage

  • @TheSatanas666 it's true. many white musicians have too much to prove to black musicians. if a white musician wears a hendrix shirt on stage cuz he actually likes hendrix music, he has to stick his chest out even more to let everyone know he likes a black artist. goofy. i know you have seen this with whites.

  • @lester5192 if a white musician wears a hendrix shirt on stage... ok you makin no sense, you are totally stupid. have a nice life

  • @TheSatanas666 yeah. white musicians do wear other bands t-shirts on stage when they play. you not knowing this proves my point.

  • this is by far my favorite peroid for chuck berry.....1970s, his big resurgence. I was in my first years of college in the 70s....this peroid was a big come back for him

  • master

  • Velvet pants! Oh yeah

  • chuck was for sure better that elvis hell Elvis stole most of his shitttt from blacks

  • The real king of rock & roll. Chuck is such a sweet player & singer. I think Elvis was shit. Didn't even compose any song's or play the guitar very well. Anyway, the fatboy is dead now. Rock ! Long live Chuck !!!

  • @weemme man you may have an opinion but Elvis even though I believe is the King was definitely was one rock n roll legend..we all should respect all the rock n rollers who each gave their contributions to the greatest genre ever! Elvis didnt deserve your comment....

  • @Britishguy18 chuck was for sure better that elvis hell Elvis stole most of his shitttt from blacks

  • @weemme

    Elvis was a SINGER. C BERRY was a SONGWRITER.Can't understand why people ALWAYS mix up these two things.ELVIS was a superb singer throughout his WHOLE career & it did not matter if he was fat or not, ill or healthy.CHUCK B. was a creative songwriter in the 50's who influenced younger musicians a decade later.HE was not a versatile vocalist like ELVIS, LITTLE RICHARD,JACKIE WILSON or ROY HAMILTON who could sing in almost ANY STYLE.

  • @2009framat at the end of the day m8 who gives a flyn fu*k who is more talented or who has copied who, everyone should just listen to whatever they prefer and enjoy, irraspective of anything all off these artist have got talent ;)

  • @tippa2kk

    I did not start the stupid "King of Rock&Roll"-blabla. I just said it makes no sense to compare a songwriter and guitarist to a vocalist & interpret of non-original songs. BTW that has nothing to do with who is more talented but with the circumstance that it is irrelevant to compare these two musicians :-)

  • @2009framat fair enuff ;)

  • This is music. real music.

  • Dramarica!!!

    

  • You know when some of you get into comparison wars its pretty child like. All these guys made the era. Its like playing a big band. Everyone adds to the whole piece and it comes out great. No one did what Elvis did. And no one can be Chuck Berry or SRV or Hendrix. What a band we got to listen to.

  • @cyoteblues

    You are right about almost everything you are saying. But unlike Berry, Hendrix or Elvis who were innovators and started something new SRV did not add anything "new" to the music. He does not belong in the same league with these musicians because he started his musical career long after blues and rock and roll were established in popular music.

  • I wish I was black

  • @jkadvices

    Wishing to be something else?  That can't be right.

  • Wonderful! Never thought about Chuck singing the blues. He was always Mr. Rock and Roll in my mind. I love it! Thanks

  • amazing

    

  • i listened to this stoned on acid and it was one of the best moments of my life.

  • the KING of rock and blues > great performance < amazing

  • NOOO!!!! that aint the blues!!

  • @ElvarK1 Led Zeppelin made everything. Maybe not originally, but they definitely put their style on everything they made.

  • Bbbb BLUES

  • I NEVERED LISTERN TO BLUES THIS EXCEPT LED ZEPPELIN AND I THOUGHT THEY WERE THE FATHERS OF ROCK"n" ROLL BUT NOW I KNOW IM WRONG BUT CHUCK BERRY IS O_O .... :D

  • "he's an ok guitar player"

    Haha :)

  • how the fuck does this have 2 dislikes D:<

  • @nemaholic

    His parents in law :D

  • THE, BEST

  • I love to play blues on my guitar

  • Man!...love this song....I wanna learn how play the guitar and sing like Chuck man...where there is will there is a way

  • Chucks strength is his songwriting, not the guitar playing, he's an ok guitar player

  • just great ....................

  • @70goldtop, it's unfair to compare artists by just your personal tastes , yes chuck berry defined the 50s and set the standard for guitar players world over , but then so did hendrix , both are different , both are amazing , chuck inspired hendrix , and yet chuck himself has said that he was awed by hendrixs guitar playing , I can't take sides though cuz they are to of my favourite musicians :)

  • Thousand times better than Hendrix.Who cares who's pissed

  • You know, I'm looking at thousands of blues video, and often I will come across a metal fan that likes the blues. I used to listen to some metal as well, and what I gather from my humanities back round and musical back round is that they both evoke a very powerful punch of emotions quickly. The blues has the sentimental sad pleasure that is drown out, while metal works in quick bursts of excitement. I think we should really treasure all musical genres except post 1992 lol. What happened?

  • The only other music that I like other than Deathcore and Metalcore is The Blues.

  • Salute to The King...The Legend!!!

  • Salute to the King...the Legend !!!

  • i think chuck is better than elvis.

  • @scottrocksACDC who is elvis  ? :)

  • @scottrocksACDC you and me both ;)

  • CHUCK & ELVIS FOR LIFE!
