Joe Cocker - With a little help from my Friends 1968

[derpolcu]

This song is just amazing. It brings back memories from whem I used to watch "Wonder Years" with my brother.

[maurecacb]

uhuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuuuu

amo tudo isso huashuashuashuas

[kathyelam2014]

Remove the attitude that I am trying to get help from my friends! Remove the attitude that I can get by with help from my friends!

[firecap62]

I can hear the naritive from wonder years ...man where did good TV go

[EthanxClarke]

Besides the uk album cover of Electric Ladyland, also you can see some parts of the Sgt. Peppers...

[deonperrins]

this is my favourite song ever

[deca657]

Hard to forget, growing up watching that show.. Good childhood memory.

[garenhung]

i found the real song.......

[eletricoasilvro]

grande classico da musica internacional

[Rich4life69]

if you read this songs lyrics above its about a guy who is homeless sleeping on couch's getting high mooching off his friends and his girlfriend left him. LOL :D

[whitecloud2002]

I wonder if anyone remembers this Song as the Opening theme of "The Wonder Years"

[Frenchfry147]

@whitecloud2002 haha i knew i recognized this as an opening somewhere right before i read this

[gothkingazrael]

@whitecloud2002 everyone does...

[whitecloud2002]

@gothkingazrael I would disagree with this, Alot of the kids of today watch these crappy Reality T.V. shows on MTV and what not. I doubt they have even heard of the Wonder Years.

[gothkingazrael]

@whitecloud2002 mtv and reality tv shows are a joke... especially when theyre telling kids they can get on tv if they get pregnant at 16... i misss good old 80's tv lol

[whitecloud2002]

@gothkingazrael I totally agree!!!

[boronx]

would you just keep your hands still for a moment?

[Blackhawk680]

I never forget the first time i heard this song it was one of those late reruns of woodstock. Guess what i just found out it was made in the same year i was born 1968 :D

[shotgunuk]

Reminds me of a friend who gave up on life a long time ago. RIP Neil.

[XeeGen]

I always thought Joe Cocker was black :|

[phylliswaterfield]

wow a man with a big soul........

[WetPooooopie]

My mom says like I own thos song, i luv it man one of my most favorites top 10 lists

[smokeyitup]

does anyone else notice all these girls are topless lol this geek is a rockstar..

[AbsolutRachel]

I remember being 5 years old and telling my mom that I wanted to watch "The Underwears" (The Wonder Years) xD

[ata06060]

he's more of a geek than a rockstar.

but a great singer.



[HighFidelity420]

7 people don't wanna remember high school

[Navarrobuff]

I love this tune! Classic...

[SirPwn4lot]

Great version, almost as great as the original

[772viada215]

great song, for one of the greatest things ever produced by the 80's..... The Wonder Years

[772viada215]

great song, for one of the greatest things ever produced by the 80's..... The Wonder Years

[icky034th]

363 people have no friends

[RheaVid]

First concert I ever saw was Joe Cocker, in Boston, on his first U.

S. tour. He has the pipes, he has the chops, and he can style a song like nobody's business.

[GatlingSword]

love this song why are there so many topless girls in the video?

[Rainwhisker167]

@GatlingSword The girls are from the British cover of "Electric Ladyland" by Jimi Hendrix Experience (obvious why it was never released in the US!)...why it is being used here? No clue.

[pjetrs]

@Rainwhisker167

because the girls are topless. nuff said! 

[Markb2477]

I wonder how many people were surprised that he was a white guy singing this song.

[TrueOne93]

@Markb2477 I know I was surprised. He sounds fantastic.

[treyrosenmeyer]

yeah joe improved because of the soul...........

[mistadreadman]

I remember 5th grade, studying & just easyness when I hear this song.

[asphalt1ful]

Too bad we lost so many artists back then , huh !???/ Going ta stay listening to these / bring back memories Good/or/Bad

[itsstilltuesday]

@SmashingKinpumps I'm just saying when people thing "With a Little Help From My Friends" people think beatles. The only reason i started it is because he said the beatles said that his version was better, but I can't seem to find that anywhere. Sources please?

[candyrayne215]

@itsstilltuesday when i think of this song i think of woodstock and the show wonder years ...it was years before i knew this was a beatles cover

[genxxxersize]

A yummy friend invite! *licks lips*

[PanayotiProductions]

What is Cocke on here? He looks wastoid fucked up. lol.

[Pageman10]

This song is from my favorite television show ever!

[itsstilltuesday]

@dorkandproudofit You are an Idiot the Beatles version is way better..

[SmashingKinpumps]

@itsstilltuesday really ? wow. music is subjective. don't judge which is better, you just sound like a moron.

[Scanjoon]

@itsstilltuesday Tin ears! Cocker's version and style makes the Beatles sound like Sesame Street characters.

[itsstilltuesday]

@Scanjoon i guess agree to disagree but you can't cover a song by the greatest band of all time and be better it is impossible.

[dorkandproudofit]

@itsstilltuesday Unless of course the band that WROTE THE SONG said the cover was better. Which they did.

[Kins112]

@itsstilltuesday greatest of all time? lol

[chungin955]

am i the only one who notices all of the bare tits floating in the background??

[sporadmom]

@chungin955 That was the original Hendrix cover that didn't get released in the states!

[zermini121]

@chungin955 i was going to write somthing about that but i wasnt sure if they were bare

[bharp4545]

1 of my fav songs of all time

[themountainzg]

damn song brought a tear to my eyes... R.I.P all my friends who died thanks for being there

[deutschland08fn]

Berries and cream, berries and cream. I'm a little lad who loves berries and cream.

[Markb2477]

This is a great song. Also if you heard the voice and not the face. You would have never thought it was a white guy singing.

[l8trg8tr071]

makes me wonder how good were the drugs then, still the song is good

as is the video

[optimismsflames]

@l8trg8tr071 and jimmy page on guitar!

[airmcpup]

it boggles the mind that this WHITE man can sing like this..love joe cocker cuz he has soul

[zaza39400]

si près et si loin.. Je frisonne quand j'entends et vois ce clip PS j'avais 15 ans cette année là!

so close yet so far .. I shudder when I hear and see this clip PS I was 15 that year!

[gratefulfunksquier69]

GREAT VIDEO! XD

[superface12345]

This song epitomizes my life. Without my friends, i'm quite literally nothing. Love my friends to death, and would die for them!

[jka501]

I see tits on the first part man i love this video.

[shun1782]

Theme song to The Wonder Years. One of the best shows as a 80's baby growing up in the 90's.

[nutleyguitar1968]

The recording features lead guitar from Jimmy Page.

[andyperkins99]

BOOBS! WTF NICE

[thunderbear06]

Even though I was born in the late 80s, this is classic without a doubt

[maicolmls]

WOW.....years. YEARS i've spent to find this song and i finally found it...an old tv show started with this song... anybody remembers??

[luclongley7]

God damn it why couldnt i have grown up in the 60's......

[LlamasWithAtaris]

Gorgeous voice; inexplicable video. I suppose we can attribute the naked ladies in the background as a sign of the times?

[tardistraindude]

It's the best. Traindude

[TheRaggaddyanna]

this is the best version of this song, It was where I was in my life. I dont care that the beatles done it, They didnt do this way. I was not a beatles fan, i think they were ok but to be honest this is the best version of this song.

[MrImmabanana]

one of the greatest songs of all time.

[69meisme]

the cover SUCKS! the beatles are the original and THE BEST!!!

[Zentz29]

It's a good song...

[1953micha]

hallo mein engel für dich allein dieses Lied love you so much

joe cocker i like his musik

[papasimian]

Thumbs up if you clicked this because you saw titties! :-)

[seduction54]

@papasimian i actually clicked on it cause it was from japan tv......whos the funny guy now.....

[papasimian]

@seduction54 LOL

[yrcrazypa]

the way he dances is hilarious, but the music is awesome anyway

[Buryyourdead86]

Good song.

[justinotherpeterson]

i never knew that this was a beatles song before cocker sang it

[Drookz1]

Timeless !

[boronx]

Joe is an even better dancer than the guy from the Smiths

[aaron12254]

lol @ the hundreds of topless women in the background

[united016]

maybe better than the beatles one, because he's a better singer than ringo

But the beatles arrangement is perfect for sgt. pepper, this couldnt have been on it. anyway just shows lennon mccartney genius

[foxracing500r]

Only a couple songs have been covered and considered original. The 2 I can think of now are this, and Hendrix - All along the watchtower. Both covered from extremely talented artist, by extremely talented artist.

[sportsterrich]

jimmy page guitar solo...

[Markb2477]

Everytime I hear this song I think of The Wonder Years. I also went to high school with Paul aka Josh Savino. He was a dork in real life. He had is yearbook picture professional done.

[cherocheri]

i know the beatles made this and their version is very good. but i like this one way much more, idk i feel the emotion in the song i guess. haha idk love it.

[68CAZZA]

@cherocheri you are so right this version is much more emotional 

[68CAZZA]

@cherocheri I totaly agree

[dougmorris1000]

i agree with you PIGHUNTER375, this is the theme song to wonder years.

[hotbox4u]

there a songs which was written by some musicans and then other musicans came along and took the song and make it to their own.

fE Hurt by Trent Reznor from the NIN was covered by Johnny Cash. later trent reznor said as he heared Cashs version the first time " I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore" he knew this song was made for Cash.

Joe Cocker did the same with "With a Little Help From My Friends"

[randymoss327]

dis version is 10x better than tha beatles version...it has more life and feeling

[mrceebees14]

Can't help but think of Belushi when he used to immitate Joe Cocker.

[12HaleyR]

Love it!!!!!!

[luvdrmd34]

i like the beatles but i gotta say i think joe has a better voice than paul and john

[orenth26]

paul and john didnt sing this song it was ringo

[gunnar2300]

Beatles way better, sorry joe

[zombieturd7]

@gunnar2300 agreed!

[wldchld7]

Good music and bare titties....

Can't beat that combo!

[notvee]

ha ha wonder years...i had no idea this was a beatles song even though I've had the beatles song for years. Gasp :O

[echo680]

@notvee but that's the thing with a cover as good as this, isn't it ...like others have said here, really making the song their own ? In same way a mate of mine was stunned the other week to realise "all along the watchtower " was a Dylan song :)

[ultramegamix]

brings me back memories from when i use to watch the show Wonder Years

[kimiwersen]

This song is pretty touching...

[j3susfuckingchr1st]

ahhhh so so so so good. not a fan of the beatles version, so in love with this one.

[Chri5tianity]

this version was made famous by "the Wonder Years" tv show. :)

[WendenCastle1966]

wonderfoul years...

[Wierdplaceflms]

Wow, some of these comments are ridiculus. Saying the beatles are horrible? That's unacceptable. This version is good, and it's just as good as the original.

[alchiby]

Best version other than the original.

Beatles 4 ever.

[lewfc2011]

sung 10000 x better than the beatles

[jimminycricket86]

synchronised epilepticish hand movements were brilliant in this video.

[dorkandproudofit]

I doubt he can help it--he has Cerebral Palsy.

[chinodan]

Is it me or this guy sings this song better than the original???

[rossco2700]

i am 13 years old.and i love this song.

[colitasqueen]

Me too :)

[baitout]

Im sorry the beatles version has nothing on this.

[lilrabbitcuz]

damm his voice is damm man great song

[DEADSOULS33]

los años maravillosos!!!!!

[Peppafresh1982]

It´s Great...i love this Song so much!

And the Soap ist beautiful ;)

[gerald141088]

oh! men i love it

[fab4fan5]

2:45-St.Pepper Lonely Hearts Club,..Cool

[1UpStaff]

The Beatles version is much better. The only good part of this is the chorus, which is amazing.

[dorkandproudofit]

Dude, even The Fab Four agreed that this arrangement was better than theirs.

Seriously, they actually came out and said it.

[orochikaiba]

OMG, I just watched the Beatles version of this song. DUDE, that song was so horrible. I'll give it the credit it's due for being the original, but every now and then a remake will surpass the original, and this is definitely one of the situations. Now i wanna watch the Wonder Years, HAHAHAHA

[normal12008]

both versions of the song are equally as good, though.

[redsaw44]

cocker made it better no doubt.

[dorkandproudofit]

Amazing song, but he looks like the "Berries and Cream" dude.

[juleslb]

Or is it that the "Berries and Cream" dude looks like Joe Cocker.....?

[dorkandproudofit]

Whatever. The man can sing, and that's all that really matters.

Still, Berries and Cream. :)

[nutballgazette]

Although I am a huge Beatle fan Cocker made this a classic

[1991sassi]

how long I searched for this xD

love this song

awesome

[fraserkr]

crappy non ending. sorry, don't mean to be nasty.

[PigHunter375]

Hard to hear this song and not think about The Wonder Years!

[fab4fan5]

Yep,me too:)

[Kosake82]

@PigHunter375 So true. :)

[peckachicken01]

@PigHunter375 I think about it everytime I hear it! ahh..back when there were good shows on tv!

[chrisjone]

fantastic

[TheUntitled88]

jimmy page plays guitar on this track

[eccomuse]

That would be the greatest drummer is rock, the late B.J. Wilson of Procol Harum, on drums.

[raulito19782001]

1968 was one of those years that shoked the world in social matters. It was the year of Tlatelolco (Mexico City), Paris, and Praha disturbs.

[Blinki18284]

Don't forget Germany! And don't know how you've seen it but in Germany was almost a revolution! Social and socialistic! :-)

[youngerx]

its the original u twat!

[JohnVasco]

The original was written by Lennon/McCartney and first appeared on ther Sgt. Pepper album. Cocker's was a cover version.

[Declav]

lol, no its not, this is a lennon and mcartney song!!!

what a cover though!!!!!

[DingbatGill]

I LOVE this version! I might like it more than the Beatles'.

[mikeguitargod14]

the naked girls in the background are from the UK electric ladyland cover

[uraniareyes]

:) sang out of tune

[sookiestackhouse2u]

joe was really cute in a goofy sorta way. great rendition of a beatles classic.

[pgup002]

beatles suck !!!!!!!!!!

[kaylatheindie]

your kidding right? i mean this song wouldn't be here without them

[743406424]

You SUCK!!!

[1H0TS0UP1]

wish this was the full version

[MeIsTheWalrus]

Prefer the beatles but this is VERRYYY different and it's not bad at all!

[wwwgotristancom]

i agree with you

[mikeilike1969]

very cool song.

[avp010994]

Those nude women in the background are from the album cover of electric ladyland by jimi hendrix. TRIVIA

Also the guitarist for this song is led zeppelin's Jimmy page

[SoerenDH]

where? where? where are the tits?!?

I like his hair. Kinda girly.

[beman5654]

[amoniaco]

La verdad esque esta cancion me gusta

mas que la version de los beatles

como k tiene mas sentimiento ^^

[pianofan2204]

well you are right, this are two totally different styles. I like both of them, but I have to "wear" different glasses ;-)

[therightstuff90731]

Where is the ending the ending is the best part?

[Gingerbelll]

I saw him live, in his later years. He has fantastic timing, best I have heard and seen.

His version of 'dont let the sun go down on me' bests Elton singing it. I love his voice

[Nathananjo]

muito bom

[ANALxXxMARGARITA]
