John Lennon - Give Peace A Chance (Original Video Tape) [HiQ]

[fluffyfuzzbox]

show this to george bush and ask tony blair for your money back

[bichbetru]

We are so lucky to have had him for only 40 years. Imagine what would have been if he lived. What kind of world he would have shaped. I have spoken on youtube on that subject many times. We are lucky, so very lucky.

[Christlovesanimals]

[TheSabrina255]

[MrChunkerton2001]

((*J*))

[riceNtots]

I love Lennon. <3

[MrTodd198126]

I was suprised to read that John Lennon was actually a wife beater and a pretty violent guy...

[notmemate]

@MrTodd198126 Yeah, I'm not downplaying his musical greatness but he was a depressed, fucked up hypocrite in real life- played like a sucker by that talentless cunt Yoko who was only after fame and money.

Americans have given this man some kind of aura that is superficial and bullshit- he was a human with faults like the rest of us.

[TheLunaParty]

I wish to redo this song with a photo bed in and all my friends singing this and other John and Yes Yoko ONO songs. Power to the People. The web-olution has arrived.

[CelesteContradiction]

Some times I listen to this song and Imagine and I can see myself next to Lennon, singing my heart out and then when it's over I cry because I'd give anything to live in a world like the one he imagined.

I wish people would give peace a chance.

[Lovethepeacegirl98]

@CelesteContradiction Ya know what's scary?

I do the same thing!!

[Krsna93]

HARE KRISHNA! Thanks for the full video, I don't know why the regular media usually cuts the Hare Krishna's out.

[ChantHareKrishna]

a friend I know was there Michel Laverdiere Hare Krishna devotee in that room with them Hare Krishna

[nightcrawler511]

krishna isn't real, i believe john later realized that when he became a born again christian

[C0DEMON]

fUCKING mISS yA, jOHN ☮ ☮ ☮ ☮ ☮

[kjchicago1]

This was recorded in 1969 at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal! Tommy Smothers is in this, too!

[Treyskywalker77]

gotta love lennon

[RussianBoyDAN]

John is not alive anymore, but his songs are, and they still inspire many people. This song and "Imagine" are my personal favorites, not because of their popularity, but rather for what made it popular in the first place: the message.

[tribeisone]

Happy 71st Birthday John, sadly there are many nations that didn't give peace a chance...

[avalanchesuperstar]

John looks like a hobo here. But hey, that was the style.

[badimiagirl1]

@avalanchesuperstar That was the look back then. I lived through it...

[yorktot]

Happy Birthday, John

[tjgates4888]

Happy 71st birthday, you are missed by many!

[shonkhuulai]

Happy birthday John, so glad you dismissed Paul..;-) ...... WOH, woh. All we are saying: Give YOU PEACE a chance.

[MrRunningbear56]

[magnumcr00k]

Entire generation is checking facebook, lost in celebrity magazines. We are chasing cars and cloths. Working jobs we hate to buy shit we dont need while millions are dying in africa, 30,000 children die everyday ffrom hunger. We've become middle children of history with no purpose or place. We no great depression or war. Our great depression is our lives. lets all come out on John lennons birthday OCT 9TH and sing GIVE PEACE A CHANCE out loud. He and many deserve it. SPREAD IT ALL OVER YOUTUBE!

[DavidChaseDance]

I was in a crowd across from CPW looking up at the Dakota - Yoko peeked out and waved..the day he as shot- we all sang this .it was incredible.

[erice495able]

[BobDylanFan1966]

John Lennon Was Jesus With Glasses

[MidnightsanitariumTV]

@BobDylanFan1966 jesus with glasses? more like god of music

[Hoganx90]

Peace, what a powerful motivator.

[thecomposerpianist]

"what do you mean by normal mr. lennon" is the best quote here xD

[mistaAnthonyWilson]

and the response... .

... .HOW many have died in war since?

.

REMEMBER LOVE it changes nothing.

.

.O.

[MDProdTV]

Great to see T Leary 4.02...

[lippy123445]

The song remains the same

[mrrodpatrick1]

JOHN LENNON THE GREATEST ARTIST OF ALL TIMES

[mrrodpatrick1]

give peace a chance.,john's right ..you can't say peace while having a gun

[Tune4you]

Today's generation can see right here in this video what 'genius' means in the musical industry. This was a 'statement' that came out of a discussion that turned into a song. Spur of the moment from a man who could write a song on the drop of a dime and make a hit out of it because the song meant something to everyone. Part of the musical 'magic' that I pray will return one day.

[TheConstipation]

Give piss a chance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[maki212]

It's like watching Jesus, lol.

[margarita22973]

estacancion me hace recoedar toda mi reveldia

[mrbeatlesfan508]

great vid thanks very much. And just imagine sitting in that room singing with them.

[mrbeatlesfan508]

great vid thanks very much.

[simonwedege]

@shazzbot007 Politicians do that. And do you honestly think that the US population would like to live in a country at war on their own soil?

Korean people, vietnamese, iraqi, afghani etc, are tired of war. No one wants to live in a war zone. Only a few people benefit from wars: politicians, dictators, companies (oil, weapon production, etc) and maybe a few others.

[simonwedege]

@shazzbot007 Don't feed the trolls. Of course no one is for war and violence. Who would be so stupid to advocate that?

[litolalitolala95]

Happy 70s, John

[meghanXwalters]

"Now someone pass me the joint maaan !" XD

[kyral210]

And the next year Black Sabbath released their debut album...

[dejongerful]

Holy God, talk about solid goosebumps! :) That's all I am saying.

[onlyjoetee]

@shazzbot007 NEWS FLASH!!All your friends WILL die!!!!!!Everybody you know WILL DIE!!even you yourself eventually WILL DIE!!!

[Samadhiatman500]

I was such a wee one when this was out. A beautiful message. I love it. I am digging it. All we are saying is "Give Peace A Chance."

[onlyjoetee]

THIS SONG IS SUCH BULLSHIT.THE LIVING HUMAN DOES NOT WANT PEACE,MAN IS LIKE A KNIFE OR PENCIL,HE NEEDS TO BE SHARP,THE EXPERIENCES THAT SHARPEN HIM ARE NOT PEACEFUL AND TRANQUIL!THINK ABOUT IT....

[piiikj]

@onlyjoetee ?? , i think you dont get the point? ,yes its true , people doesnt care about peace , right now , but he , HE WANTED PEACE! , he WANTED A REVOLUTION , and HE WAS RIGHT , because PEACE , PEACE IS THE BEAST THING IN THE WORLD , BETTER THAN WARS , because WARS DESTROY EVERYTHING , BUT PEACE , PEACE FIXES ALL , and the song isnt bullshit , the only bullshit here is your comment =P

[Samadhiatman500]

@onlyjoetee Interesting, why are you here when you are not for peace?

[onlyjoetee]

@Samadhiatman500 why dont people ever get it.Humans are not on this earth for peace.Everything that you need to know,see,hear,learn etc is on the battlefield.Peace is what the dead people in cemetry have.If your whole life was totally peaceful,you would be dull,weak,stupid,and know and realize absolutely nothing.He who seeks peace,runs from life.Thats what junkies and alcoholics do.Life is on the battlefield not in the peace,death is in peace!!think about it!

[mglazarus]

Tribute to Nathan Wolkovitz, my dear friend, the young photographer sitting in on that day. You can see him at minute 2:58 clapping away. RIP my dearest friend, Nate.

[zerobeat18]

I had no idea Tommy Smothers was part of this! That sure looks like him at 1:22 now that I know.

[FP1IB]

Amazing! Would love to bee at that room at that time singing that song

[mxpalmer]

Is that Bill Murrey four minutes in?

[zerobeat18]

@mxpalmer The guy at the 4:00 mark is 48 year old Timothy Leary. Bill Murray would have been 18 at the time.

[MsPebbles2010]

[RealLoveRevolution]

@MsPebbles2010

[kjchicago1]

@MsPebbles2010 This song is from 1969, recorded in a Montreal hotel room(Queen Elizabeth Hotel)and features Tommy Smothers on acoustic guitar. BTW, the room number is 1742(hotel room number)and this song uses four mics and a four-track tape recorder
