The Beatles - Blackbird (lyrics)

[catnoelle1999]

The glee version is WAY better

[IEatedYerrCookie]

Hah, my dad used to play this on the guitar and sing it to me, too.

I guess there are other awesome dads besides my own. c:

[trieneke56]

whenever I die,this is the song I want my family to let play, during my last moments....

it gives me goosebumps...

[QueenNekoChan]

My dad used to play this for me on his guitar when I was little... this was the only lullaby I knew :)

[elijahrcraig]

Man, this song is not on Grooveshark!!!! @%#$!!!!!! I'm gonna learn this song on guitar :D

[elijahrcraig]

What font is this?

[Drpepperey2]

@elijahrcraig It's called "Aint Nothing Fancy". I probably got it from abstractfonts

[elijahrcraig]

@Drpepperey2 Thanks =)

[whathojeeves1]

On the basis of blackbird alone, I think one can very safely conclude that the Beatles came not from this world.

[Lookin4sweetTALK]

i love this song so much, i would seriously listen to any version.

[orangeoranges11]

@BeautyBxtch not necessarily, they may just not like the song

[Beatles123Lover]

I cry when I hear this song without reason...

[RandomFROGGY101]

Fantastic job. Beautiful song! : )

[mysoulanime]

This song is just beautiful. Enough said.

[vincent3302003]

Who the fuck dislikes this?! Honestly

[HereComesThatIndian]

@vincent3302003 I don't think anyone honestly dislikes this. I think hipsters pretend not to as to not spoil their fragile reputation.

[dangab111]

=(

[877spw]

I've lost faith in the human race now that I just saw the top comment on this video is about Glee. Sad, sad world.

[Dwigt00]

@877spw If that's your biggest trouble in this world, you've got it pretty good.

[weAreTheFalled34345]

[Allysuefromthezoo]

Christina Perri did a cover of this ong its good to. although nothing could defeat the original ;D 

[EHbeachbum]

this song is a responce to Billy Holidays Strange Fruit

[chocolawaffle]

when i look up blackbird i see glee, not a good sign

[swiftstarupsidedown]

Guys, come on. Quit talking about things that aren't even relevant to the video. It's obnoxious.

One of the best Beatles songs out there. Miss them so. It's amazing what an impact their music still makes.

[maggiesam7]

Puh-leez!! I like Glee and all, but don't compare them with the Beatles

The Beatles are thee legend!!! So, guys pls don't sink them that low.

[addicted2guitar90]

absolutely beautiful guitar work, and a beautiful song at that!

[couteradays]

Hey! Dislikers!, look at the dislikes bar, now at your penis, no difference!

[blueyedgirl1998]

@drewgorawr it was on glee btw not the glee project.. I just watched the episode last night..

[Drpepperey2]

@blueyedgirl1998 it was on both..

[msjoejonas18]

@blueyedgirl1998 dude, FAIL. one of the suggestion videos is "The Glee Project - Cameron - Blackbird" again I say, FAILLLLLL

[TheMcharn]

i just learned this song on the guitar. it's so much fun to play and it's gorgeous.

[KristyBigbottom]

9 ppl suck

[TheHottopicgurl]

So pretty(:

[Mople77]

@emilyzcool67 Thank you, my feelings exactly.

[IAmVictorious12]

my schools glee club is singing this and im doing tha solo

[BassGuitarded01]

Arguing about music is such shit. Stfu and listen to it. We all like different stuff.

[JBlivetoparty]

I'm in love with this song. o.o

I'm going to be honest. I've never been a Beatles fan. But, this song sure made me one. :3

[1017Opalmo]

Haha congrats John Lennon you 3rd marriage keep her forever or take me or my friend maddi haha lol this is my jam

[billyBk91]

Fuck Glee!!!!!!!!!!!

[LemonPledge01]

When I die, I want my facebook status to say "Chillin' with John Lennon and George Harrison"

[noelani666]

@LemonPledge01 im gonna like this so long as you knock on wood too!

[Munchieboy9092]

Luv this song

[cabritex]

how could someone possibly dislike this song? maybe their speakers is sounding ricky martin

[LeYoztis]

what is glee?

[MarioMario6298]

@LeYoztis a gay ass fucking show that low lifes watch

[LeYoztis]

@MarioMario6298 oh man! the glee fans really sucks! they´re not here by the magic of the Beatles, they only are here by a crew of fags! that really sucks

[cindys0413]

@MarioMario6298 such stupid comments that are being said one must reflect on themselves to be making such disgraceful hate comments such as the ones that I am reading. If one cannot analyze what is being created by a new generation of musicians and cannot accept that no changes have been made, then one cannot call themselves a true fan of whatever band they are into. there is no just argument that proves that wgat Glee created was no good, hence i will proclaim bull[escrament]!

[drewgorawr]

BTW it's not on Glee It's on the GLEE PROJECT.

Anyways, nothing will beat the origianal.

[NumbahonegLeek69]

@drewgorawr BTW it is on Glee season 2 episode Special Education Kurt sings it to the warblers bc pavarotti died and sang it his honor!

[edwloveyou]

Who cares if people found this song just be watching Glee? The point is that they love the song. They didn't ruin it. They simply did a cover, like 5 million other people have. Get the fuck over it. For real.

[Izzetmaster]

@DomoRainbowChick Exactly.

[Cuteiswhatiaim4dude]

@DomoRainbowChick some gay ass glee guy im guessing

[CirqueDuFreak100]

I love John Lennon <3 Just sayin'

[XOXOOfficiallyMe]

The movie I Am Sam. Brought Me Here<3 Probally Wouldnt Have Ever listened to this song because i was born in 1995 soo yeah. But, good classic:)))

[sumayacoldplay]

All musicians should learn from the beatles, this song is simple but beautiful.

[888clarinha]

I love the beatles!!!!

[bigeyes1234567]

@BillyBk91 hahahahaha comedy gold there man!! Swear! XD

[billyBk91]

What the hell is a Glee ?

[Thatoneguykid]

Don't hate me but Mark Hoppus brought me.

[belladona56]

το κομματι ειναι ΤΕΛΕΙΟ!!! δεν υπαρχουν λογια!!! και η μουσικη ΦΟΒΕΡΗ!!!

[silvaze5]

i gotta admit thou , im a beatles fan

but i like cameron's version better

[scyanks7]

were doing this in 8th grade honors poetry

[rocketman1244]

No song has ever made me want to learn acoustic more than this

[BlueVassals]

I know Cameron Mitchell, but my girlfriend brought me here first. :)

[514carolina]

I love the beatles. This song inparticular is special to me. This was my big brothers favorite Beatles song. I lost him in 2008, he was only 41. He was not the avid Beatles fan that I am but he really liked this song. We played it at his funeral, it was very apt to my brothers personality and life. Thanks to the people who took the time to put this video together.

[MarioMario6298]

I WAS BORN TO LATE

[BlueVassals]

@MarioMario6298 made me laugh ha. :D

[Hefenstahg]

I don't care what brought me I'm just glad I get to listen to it

[manala11]

This really helps I am trying to do a compare and contrast essay about this and to kill a mockingbird thanks!

[RavenxRobin101]

What is wrong with you people? Beatles fans should be happy this generation is learning great music like this, regardless of how. I listened to Cameron Mitchell's cover of this, and it's great! Odds are people who learned the song from The Glee Project, will search it on Youtube, and eventually find the even more amazing original.

[Drpepperey2]

@RavenxRobin101 There's nothing wrong with anyone. We're just all different. -_-

[RavenxRobin101]

@Drpepperey2 That really didn't have anything to do with my comment, besides disagreeing with my beginning question, but ok. o_o

[Drpepperey2]

@RavenxRobin101 You asked what was wrong with us people.. I said nothing.. but OKAY. 

[RavenxRobin101]

@Drpepperey2 Actually, I was right, it is ok. Because it came from an incorrect abbreviation of All Correct. Like if someone were to spell it, "oll korrect."

Don't correct my grammar if it doesn't need correcting. :)

[Drpepperey2]

@RavenxRobin101 I wasn't correcting your grammar lmao I was spelling it out because I prefer it that way..

[RavenxRobin101]

@Drpepperey2 Whatever bro.

[Drpepperey2]

@RavenxRobin101 Mhm.

[MarioMario6298]

SR71 inbound!

[queenmiyu16]

My dad used to play this song to me as a lullaby when I was little so it's very special to me. (:

[lipgloss675411]

that guy cant sing :P sorry but hes really bad

[kaarliss23]

@lipgloss675411 So maby you should sing ? Or maby you sing to digusting Like your mother said ? !! If you dont like the singing just stay off this video and go watch some cartoons

[lipgloss675411]

@kaarliss23 or maybe you should learn how to spell 'maybe'?

[MoonsongTheFirst]

@lipgloss675411 You just insulted a world wide icon. Get prepared for some really really angry comments and maybe a rock through your window

[12pistol3]

well i dont know about 'glee' i not that old but i do like this macca simple song about struggling single mothers bringing up their children in poverty.

[makata222]

whats wrong with you guys!!! why are you hating those "people" that sing this song, like glee, don't take me wrong I am a true Beatles fan thats why i am so happy many people adore this song to the point they are copying it and sing it in television. Glee revives old song.. REAL songs so that the NEW GENERATION will learn the REAL MUSIC! so If you are a TRUE BEATLES FAN you will be happy that the new generation like this song and take note they learn about this music through Glee. SayThnxToGlee

[Drpepperey2]

@makata222 No point in trying to force your opinion on others..

[msfattytroll]

@makata222

fuck glee

[msselenaglover]

@makata222 yah i started liking this song because of glee. THANK YOU GLEE <3

[thezacknsethshow]

@makata222 no, what ends up happening is bad covers are done and the song is twisted into some pop fashion and honestly pop is one of the shittiest things about this generations music...so why would i want that tainting what remnants of glory there is left?

[Kayklein]

@thezacknsethshow Do you even know what Pop means? All it stands for is popular, so in reality. That comment of yours makes no sense, because in essence, all popular music is Pop. Which transcends several genres.

[thezacknsethshow]

@Kayklein Yes pop stands for popular and yes it transcends into several genres, but that doesn't make what I said incorrect. I said pop is one of the shittiest things about this generations music. Hence all that transcending your talking about is really just a little fountain of shit trickling down to whatever base roots pop can be catagorized into. Its all shit, Sure there is a catchy gem here or there, but a lot of it is mostly crap

[RealTri4Lyfe]

@makata222 fuck glee

[Somethingveryaweful]

@makata222 So true, enjoy the real good music everyone!

[mobleym007]

@makata222 this song has been overplayed since the first time i heard it listening to the white album, i havent listened to it in a long time but i found myself saying the lyrics and i hadta listen... if they covered it tho i guess thats cool... as long as they did a good job, now go listen to the white album

[skullcraft11]

@makata222 Glee is Terrible!!!!

[SOADequalsGOD]

this song is absolutly beautiful

[DivineWrath3000]

really good song learning it now

[rapsucks2471]

i love it, but i hate what music has become >.>

[TheHeymaymay]

I'm learning how to play this on my guitar :) i love this song :)

[adrianneluvsu18]

Love this song cant get it out of my head -3

[ForTheBeatles4]

I really looked forward to this song, and it really opened my eyes to the world in a new way, I really love this song, in fact I love The Beatles and I will even after I die.

[ForTheBeatles4]

I don't even like "Glee" and never watch that gay show, I listened to the song because I knew I wold really love it, Glee has to stop trying to sing, because they are terrible.

[PreppyPrincess4Ever]

thumbs up if glee and cameron mitchell DIDN'T bring you here. Congrats true beatle fans!

[nestabob2002]

@PreppyPrincess4Ever Whos Cameron Mitchell?? (:

[PreppyPrincess4Ever]

@nestabob2002 if you have ever heard of the show Glee they made a reality show for it and one of the contestants sung this song.

[SourGrapes101]

@PreppyPrincess4Ever Lol I think it's so funny when people put comments like this, cause I would never know if you didn't. It's the same with video games, its funny.

[PreppyPrincess4Ever]

@SourGrapes101 ahaha, I was just annoyed with everyone saying "Cameron brought me here!" and "Cameron did better!"

[reeree3721]

So, I came here because of Glee and have discovered an awesome song that IS better then the Glee version x1000.

But the point is I came because of Glee. It doesn't matter that the songs aren't as great as other versions of the song or the original. Its at least expanding peoples taste in songs/music. Thats what counts.

[khan236932]

Smodcast.com brought me here. I have a new favorite Beatles song now :)

[rapsucks2471]

Aww I like it!

[MJJsthebest]

the perks of being a wallflower ;) ♥♥

[RylieandRilee]

It actually makes me feel sick that the Glee cast version of this song is a Featured Video. The Beatles are, and always will be, the best band in the whole world <3

[Alexandria815]

One of the first Beatles' songs i ever listened to... Such simple lyrics yet explains so much. The Beatles have the most inspirational music; there will never be another band like these guys. Noone can compare <3

[Alexandria815]

Completely off the subject of the song, but is the background picture moving? Like jello?

[Drpepperey2]

@Alexandria815 I don't think so. I just used an old film type of effect.

[Alexandria815]

@Drpepperey2 Ah, well it's really cool. Gives effect to the video instead of just stillness

[ilovelove7emmy]

it seems that beatles have a song for EVERY problem, or heartache, or happy days, or when you just need encouragement.

[violinandglee]

who cares about if glee sang this,

okay ur here not there get over it.

its really immature 2 fight over a beautiful song like this, just grow up and appreciate how amazing this song is.

[juliez1160]

This is just one of those songs anyone could relate to

[quarryman14]

@Dr. Pepperey2 Thanks so much! Glad u dig us...like a pony.

[quarryman14]

Dr. Pepperey2...hope u don't mind if I plug my band here...if not, here goes. Watch my folk rock band, "Cast Iron Shore", here on youtube. With videos of recent gigs, performing originals and covers, including two Beatles songs. If u enjoy...friend us, and if u subscribe to us, that would folk rock! Tell your friends. Tell your enemies...should u have any. All u need is love, and all we need is views, the love would be great too! We get by with a little help from our friends.

[Drpepperey2]

@quarryman14 I listened to you guys, love it!

[LoveTheLost09]

@quarryman14 ....It would folking rock...haha :P I will check you guys out 2.

[iwantasundaybike]

My language arts teacher assigned me this song to analyze. I wrote down " great song" and he replied " that wasnt the point. But good job"

[MrCrazybutter]

1 dislike poor person all they need is Love

[connorcoconut123]

i love this song so much and did u know that ringo star had been the narrator of Thomas the Train Engine and had been the person who had acted the guy Mr.Conductor this song makes me cry every time i listen to it

[thepathofpins]

I cried. This song hits me hard . Ever feel like the Beatles wrote a song just for you? This song makes me think about how in the future i will be free.

[Drpepperey2]

@thepathofpins Mhm. The Beatles and some other artists just really get to me. Really make me think.

[CassandraRosengard]

@thepathofpins When you are listening to a song it was really meant for you in that moment, dont forget that

[beatleep]

@thepathofpins I know what you mean, except with KISS (Hard Luck Woman). But with the Beatles, it probably would have to be She's Leaving Home.
