Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man 1987

[primedirective00]

It's just a drum trigger man. This was the 80s... Lots of technical stuff that didn't always sound so great lol

[macsweenjason]

awsome



[spekulatus1]

Nydelig musikk, og så stemningsfull..............

[Kempfer89]

what a truly incredible song

[shecterkid1988]

This is good but artimus snare sound like dogshit what the fuck was the digital snare about.

[salguod72]

Bring back Ed King and Artimus Pyle back in the band.Gary is the only original member in the band now.

[snowfarma]

Extreme!

[jonathanajrei]

muitooooo foda



[PaulaBicalho]

It´s looks like their version of the Daftones version

[Brittanyy2022]

This is what I miss right here is real music no auto tune just 100% talent. I may have only been born in 1997 but I grew up listening to this kind of music. Wish there was good music like this still around. Dont get me wrong I listen bands like metallica, alice in chains and I even listen to Craddle of Filth Lamb of Gpd BVB Asking alexandria ADTR BRTH and and all that and I love listening to them but this right here is the music that has and ALWAYS WILL have a VERY speical place in my heart. <3

[ValentineDayTwin]

Ronnie and a few other band members are long gone. But 25 years later, and Skynyrd music still lives ever so strong in our heads. Thanks Ronnie. Our tribute to you is enjoying what you gave. Forever r.i.p. .

[gtek34]

The best part is 0:00 7:25

[valdiralex100]

do caralho!!!

[bluesdacious]

One of my favourite Skynyrd tracks - saw them in Glasgow 1st November 1975 - haven't seen this version before - fantastic!

[d17a2]

best song ever composed..

[krace89]

I love the drummer-fist-to-the-air at 0:34

[bigbassbosky]

Shinedown ruined that song !!!

[Fargesucks4]

11 people have Bieber Fever

[warrant1fan]

is it wrong for my biology teacher to call me racist when my husband and i both grew up with the southern flag a home my mom is half southern but he's full southern because of coming from Jacksonville,FL and to critize our southern ways and what we were taught a young kids growing up in the south

[adam1gravity]

Shinedown is better

[bigbassbosky]

@adam1gravity Let me think...NO. SHOW SOME RESPECT TO A CLASSIC DUMB ASS !!!

[fasteddie925]

man does johnny van zandt have arms and a chest like a fat women no muscle fuck dude statr taking out the garbage or cut the grass  that rock star shit got you soft

[grayhairandblueeyes]

I was never a Skynyrd fan - I was introduced by the band I'm in, a new song to play. When I heard the bass line - I was amazed by the bass line. I have been playing bass since 1972 and I never heard bass played this well in a rock band! I could be wrong but is this Ed King? It's a simply great bass line I hope to do justice to it. - Thank you. :]

[varbanovnp]

@grayhairandblueeyes that's Leon, Ed recorded the simple man bassline for the album, but Leon played it originally/live. Leon's original bassline was better than Ed's.

[misslantana52]

Just so fine! ; )

[sevenlemon]

The late great Billy Powell on keyboards. RIP.

[Ulysse335]

On t'a reconnue François l'Embrouille !

[tiiley17]

true music



[kinsersprint11]

is this song on cd anywhere like it is on this video please?

[MrMegaman2000]

HairCrime ;-)

[gotwofast1]

Simply Great !!!!

[hozzieman88]

I take that back 8 people need to commit suicide hahaha

[gertj124]

There is another video of this song by them from just a few years back, it is much faster paced than this version. I like them both as well as Shinedowns version. I dont know why people can't just listen to music and appreciate it...if you don't like it find another song to listen to. Rather than put down the music. I have seen some pretty crappy songs on here, covers and originals and if I don't like it I will shut it off and not go back to it rather than make a ridiculous comment about it.

[anni3357]

i have to say, that this song is amazing.. but i like Shinedowns version better.. its more powerfull :o)

[bigblockelectra]

@anni3357 that version blows

[kinsersprint11]

now that is freaking music not the chit they play today- Hip Hop American Idol Lady Gaga Rap Crap

[TheKeviebhoy]

BLISS!

[redrock717]

they need ed king back

[UnderDogMkd]

Speechless...



[blueew]

.... why was I born in the 90'ies !

[bigbob6556]

I have front row tickets tonight, shit im so excited :)

[davillegas93]

yall should listen to shinedowns cover of this its really good.

[MrFourwheeldrive]

if you don't like this song, go fuck yourself

[getfuckedanddie1]

@MrFourwheeldrive LOL why don't you say how you really feel.....

[errrrr21]

@MrFourwheeldrive

This is one soul fulfilling song

[guzman101]

@MrFourwheeldrive What?! Who doesn't like this song?!

[Reytter]

I want to show it to my future child and say, "Son, your father lived at the time the music came from the soul and the artists had talent pty make songs like this" One of the best songs I heard in my life!

[1moreRS88]

I want my mullet back lol jk

[skyneta1a]

Damn this is too 80's influenced. Studio version is better

[Dan727]

Oh crap, now I think I want a mullet.

[borsos94]

it's better than the studio version:D:D:Dlove it!

[Anarchizer]

Gives me shivers although the vocals are better today. The song has evolved and Im glad it did, but it was and will be a great song :)

[zeljko48]

nekad bili mladi a sad su za kurac :-(

[BudMovies]

How could anybody dislike a Skynyrd song??

[dadzvalorange06]

i want my future wife to tell this to my kid.. i really do.. ^___^

[JackSandberg]

@dadzvalorange06 .......And I wanna tell my future son this....:) I've been longing to have a son to sing this song for when he goes to sleep.... And now i'm pregnant.. and i hope to god it's a boy :) Most beautiful song ever! /Emma

[xdrmrredx]

@JackSandberg God bless you......

[nhford07]

damn...that was so fuckin' awesome. 

[TheBlueGreyWorld]

Am I the only one who think about Scorpions, Always Somewhere when I hear this song ? ^^"

[1danyol1]

[I000II0I0I]

HOLY HELL...that was AWESOME!

[fenix478]

[croftjeepnxxx]

GREAT TRIBUTE the music , words, meening and the memories. It sure brings me back to where I came from. Of course you cant't go back to what it was because it has changed.California thats Southern California for me San Diego's East County.

[BX02]

What a SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Coisoman]

@TheRevSRB

RIP Gary Rossington?!

[krlsnake]

That's the kind of music I'll play to my child sleep.

[gremlinyobta]

That really Rocks!

A bit proggy, isn't it?

[hozzieman88]

5 people need to commit suicide

[yamaha262911]

@hozzieman88 hahahahahah I love Your Comment ! ! ! :)

[Geschlechtsvolzieher]

@hozzieman88 I believe they wanted to like and misclicked

[malodorous1994]

@hozzieman88 I honestly don't think your comment should be getting thumbs up if anything it should be removed. Your a total dick. Anyways Lynyrd Skynyrd you are amazing best song you ever made!

[MrDead1972]

@hozzieman88 they dont need to commit suicide but they do need to get their heads checked

[76lexieanne]

@hozzieman88

You should be ashamed of yourself!!!! Have your head examined! This song represents the true LOVE a Mother has for her Son...not sure if you are a boy or girl..but I can tell you as a Mother myself, she would be disappointed in you either way for saying such a horrible thing in a public forum!!! SAD!

[hozzieman88]

@76lexieanne

Im a boy thought id let you know

[LPMC723]

Hard to believe this tour was already 24 years ago. Holy fucking shit

[Magicl63]

Simple, effortless and full of passion exactly what Ronnie envisioned. If you're lucky like I am you know 1 man that is the essence of this song. For me its my brother in law and best friend.

[chrd6]

thankyou, nice in my heart!!!!!from milan.

[ghostscantkill]

The world's hardest working band. Active since 1964? They wanted it bad! They got it baby!!

[OverlandBull]

Bessere und ehrlichere Musik wirds wohl nie geben.

[punkrnr]

the best band ever!!!! Lynyrd Skynyrd in our hearts!!!!

GREETINGS FROM COLOMBIA!!!!!!

[EpiLesPaulJunior]

Wow never knew Johnny was such a good singer!!

This 1987 concert still has 2 original LS-members in it, now there's only 1 left :(

Gary Rossington is the living memorial to the deceased LS-members to me

[8700jalle]

great song it touch something yes big van zant was better but still gives goosebumps

[Whackness91]

It can't be better... I'm drunk, n' this is the song I've chosen everlasting!

[odysseynz]

Follow your heart

[MildlyColdNinja]

Artimus Pyle lives in my town!

[Jefgg]

@MildlyColdNinja Artimus Pyle is still required by the State of Florida to register as a sex offender after plea bargaining to 1993 charges of sexual battery against both his daughters, ages four and eight. You can look it up. I would post the links but youtube does not allow it. I was very sad when I heard about the charges against Pyle. He comes across as a kind and gentle soul in "Freebird ... The Movie" and "VH1 Behind The Music".

[MildlyColdNinja]

@Jefgg Yeah i heard about that

[Jefgg]

@MildlyColdNinja Pyle has completed his probation and is still required to register as a sex offender. In 2007 he was arrested for failing to do so. You can look up his profile on the Florida Department of Law Enforcement sexual offender database website.

[magmalinux1]

Pour les fan de Van Zant à écouter : 38 Special ;)

[odysseynz]

They are the survivors. Salute LS. Great musicians with soul. Long live LS

[pierrotlove1]

[southandmaineband]

Oh man.. all death this band has encountered.. It's truly amazing it still exists (even with just this one original member, a lot of the others has some deep connection with the earlier band set-ups aswell). Gotta love them!

[flooringalabama]
