  • cant miss with good material ... a devastating song by John Lennon ... excellent delivery by Tina

  • well done!!!my respect...

  • Well, people. Do you think you're so clever and classless and free? Or do you know what society you're living in and what your place is in it?

  • 8230 styrer for vildt....

  • fantastic voice and feeling !!

  • very nice, very true...like the echo...

  • John would be proud of this cover.....

  • Ozzy Osbourne does a fantastic job to this song also.

  • mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm - this is good. loving the mood in the video.

  • this song makes me happy and love how she sings it...this song is so perfect and meaningful :)

  • Amazing... I can feel her emotions! :)

  • Oh Tina D. I'll follow you. Am I then your hero??

  • wonderful version from a wonderful singer.

    RESPEKT!

  • Wow... that was great!

    How can anyone dislike this??

  • omg.. wow

  • hi loranalary - you are totally right, all these music critics in magazines - stupid! we have to listen to music, if we like it,it's ok - if we don't like it, we can always turn to other artists. talking about music is like talking about making love - boring...

  • A fine performance from this fine lady! Frank, you work here is gifted. Kudos!

  • The dislike on this video ain't necessarily because they don't like the song.

    Think Facebook here guys and girls, whenever a friend pops a note you say = like.

    if they are going to do or have done something you think is good.

    though we FB lacks dislike buttons, it would be the one you pressed if a friend says something sad or broke up with the lover and so.

    Dislike to this song = sad song but its pretty good! Like = if you just really love the song and the video and Tina Dico! :D

  • nice pickin

  • I already placed a comment over here, but with another Youtube-channel....

    But I want to say again; yesterday night I watched some more covers of Working Class Hero.... And I guess, I have to say, if I had to make a list of best covers from this song, you are absolutely number 1.... On number 2 comes Marilyn Manson.... And number 3 is an unknown guy I saw, he recorded it very simple, quite poor sound quality but he really sang it the way it should be.... Congratulations!! Best female cover!!

  • Apart from Marilyn Manson, this is the best cover of this song I could find untill now....

    The best female cover it surely is.... You put your soul in it so much that I can only answer you; Yes, I would follow you.........

  • Wow!

  • She really puts her soul into the songs she sings.

  • It is WONDERFUL...°!

  • i love it

  • to all things is negative rating..even to the "guy who saved the world"..thats mother nature..its ok..

  • This is a fantastic version by one seriously talented musician.

  • a new and diffent version...... simply amazing..... 5 *

    greets from belgium

  • You gotta respect how she can make practically any song she touches amazing. One the few people who release albums where, there is qaulity all through the album and not just a few songs.

  • WOW good job, but I've never heard of Tina, thx 4 turning me on to her.

  • Awesome version of this AWESOME song!

  • I was a Lennon freak and this hits the spot. A f@cking 1 sister

  • Not to my taste, but for her style and her voice, it sounded very good. If I was a fan of her type of music I think I'd really like it.

  • This is good! She's someone I hadn't discovered yet so a big thank you to izjustagirl for sending this my way :) I love her voice! Great video :)

    Annie

  • Absolutely beautiful. Just.. wow.

  • here in the uk the white working class are tret like shite and we are the lowest class

  • so so

  • Thank you for this. I needed to listen to a cover of this track by a person of true talent to wash the green day icky taste out of my ears.

  • simply amazing...shes talented with this song beyond words

  • Funny cause when i see someone talented like this i get goose-bumps, now when talent like this comes along why is it so that you never see the likes ofSimon Cowel and Louise Walsh prancing around her trying to sign her big time??? oh sorry i forgot she is already molded into perfection and full of her own talent and cannot be changed or told what to do for greater part of the year that they need their artists to last!!!!!!!

  • this is just so .................. can't pick a large enough, positive nough word. So i'll just say that it's the only only version that's as good as (better than)  the original. You've got to come at least once a week to hear this. At least, i do. LOVE IT

  • thks to Tina for making this - if another than JL should make this, i think tina is the perfect one. Try shutting down everything but the sound, and be amazed. wow this is breathtaking good

  • aww...her voice is so...so perfect. best cover I've heard so far. gentle but deep...

  • In some parts not as powerful as hoped

  • funny how the things I write get removed from my page! If they go up at all....

  • they keep you awake and then fill up ur head...

    with pictures of horror and feelings dread...

    an upper class scum bag aint something to be...

    there envious of the clever and dispise those like themselves....

    an upper class scum bag aint something to be....

    They got lots cash and that's all they have, so if you won't take their money then they'll just drive you mad....

    an upper class scum bag aint something to be...

  • I think this is the best cover I have ever Heard!

  • wow!!!! you really feel this song

  • i don't give a f!@k what anyone else thinks...i've been listening to this song for quite a few years... in fact this was the first song i learnt on the guitar...i believe she sang it beautifully....

  • Thank you.

  • Thats pretty dammed good.

  • This is great!

    if you like tina dico search for "tina dico - count to ten live@ inas nacht" (german tv-show)

  • @DerEchteBold or even better - search : tina dico roskilde 2008 - all 4 parts of her performance 2008 is outstanding - thats what I call a great live-performance

  • I have been enchanted by your version of "Working Class Hero" and could not stop listening... Thank you for the experience, Tina.

  • i love the uniqueness of your voice, its beautiful, and doesnt sound like everyone else. amazing.

  • john lennon was one of the greatests beings ever existed. can't believe there are people who dislike this peace of art, i think they must be... still fucking peasants as far as he could see!

    A WORKING CLASS HERO IS SOMETHING TO BE.

  • shes really good....i like this cover

  • Good! I never thought a woman's voice could make this song work. But you did it!

  • Tina Dickow is amazing !!

  • Tina Dico is an artist in her own stratosphere :)

  • Comment removed

  • I bet Lennon is smiling up there, listening to this. because this is outstanding !!!

  • I'll follow Tina Dico...

  • Wow I was Listening to all the other covers Green Day , Marilyn, etc. ..when I stumbled on this one ,she ratcheted up the emotion on this most emotional song.

    Beautiful Job.

  • She brings emotion into the words and the music showa an interesting arrangement. Well done

  • Der Song ist einfach der Hammer...

  • Wow, someone finally done a version of this song with all the real pain Lennon put into the song, very well done!

  • one word (+ a phew more)- wauw, this is as good as it can be.

  • I have to agree, Tina Dico is great, I'm a fan for sure.  Especially with Zero 7 when she just had to sing she was really delicious, but when she does covers she can't capture the loveliness for instance in Triad (David Crosby) or the I've shown you, kinda spitting venom ya know (John Lennon) did with this song. All the same she positive and very into music.

  • i think hearing you sing this is.... well... if you shaved your head and cut off your nose and grew a huge cock from your forhead you would still be the most beautiful person i;ve experienced or the best actress, cause seems like you felt this song more than John... WELL DONE, INSPIRED

  • ok Thanks to my Sirius radio, she is now my favorite singer. She is truly amazing.

  • Funny how there's always someone that dislike , disagree, think she should have , or shouldn't have , or that song is better by this singer , or another ... whatever .. critics are easy.. question: what have you done today? have you wrote a song ?, have you played music?, have you made someone happy?

    I guess not , or you won't be here talkin' shit.

    this is for no one in particular, and every cheap critic I see every damn day under fine videos .. :)

  • You said it. :)

  • @loranalary: Thank you.

  • @loranalary finally an artist, instead of the same old fucking peasants claiming they ain't, thank you.

  • @loranalary

    Right!

  • @loranalary Not really a sound argument, just saying

  • @loranalary Johns will always be the best no matter what kind of bullshot you say and i play the guitar so its whatever

  • @shadetheman117 what? wtf are you talkin about .. read again my comment .. and then get a brain.. that will be all , ok?

  • @loranalary It is called freedom of speech... I comes from the fact that humans feel, think and act different... People has different oppinions, and as humans we like to think we can have an effect on other people.

    You are right, most people who write comments have never written a song, or maybe not even made anyone happy, but they still have the right to sit on youtube and say their opinion on videos, deal with it

    Only think I hate is ignorant shit like racism

  • @loranalary ur damn right

  • @loranalary i dont agree, its like batman was nothing without the joker. i am a hater myself but i by myself too did notice on many occassions that things i really do like some people honestly cant feel and the other way round. (lol like girlfriends and other objects)

    like a wise neighbor always said to me: taste is different

  • ;)

  • @loranalary as an artist...this is the best comment from a music lover, I've ever seen...

    ever.

  • @loranalary

    You don't have to sing better than a person to tell if you think they sing bad..

  • @Damhove1 ofc not.. you don't have to be a performer to have the righ to like or dislike. I just say cheap critics are easy for those who do nothing else .

  • @Damhove1

    You're right, you don't need any talent whatsoever to give an arbitrary opinion. Therefore you have no credibility so you might as well just not say anything.

  • @loranalary I love you for that comment! Couldn't have said it better myself. :)

  • she have a grate voice. It´s a good version.

  • I am a huge fan of Tina, but this version misses. What makes this song so powerful and timeless is the sneering bitterness that John Lennon gave the lyrics. Only Marianne Faithfull, in my opinion, has managed to grasp Lennon's original intent with this song.

  • Hmm, forstår ikke hvordan man kan behandle den her sang med mere respekt?:S Det er da så personligt sunget, og jeg synes virkelig hun gør det fantastisk! Tror bestemt ikke Hr. Lennon har nogle indsigelser til denne sang...

  • I love that lady so much.... What a vocal... holy s***.

  • Der er altså også bare grænser for hvad man skal kopiere. Hun gør det ok, men visse sange og kunstere skal man behandle med meget mere respekt.

  • @ImagineInMyLife Den respekt du taler om findes vist ikke større end her.

  • Comment removed

  • Fantastic!Bravo Tina!

  • i think greendays version is the best!!!!

  • this is so wonderful performance...

  • Fucking great ! I have tears im may eyes.

  • This was dnyamite! She did a fantastic job on this Lennon classic! It was sooooooo moving. Well worth watching many times!

  • Tina du er så dejlig

    Never thought it before I read your messages, but your right Dickow could be pronounced as: dick cow. But she is so nice and lovely og yndig ser hun ud so please be nice

  • Fantastic job!!!

    really enjoyed this.

    Thanks,

    Cathy

  • DICO ??? :o Her name is dickow :)

    By the way, amazing cover, i once talked to her before a concert, after her "voice" practice, shes so aewsome :D

  • Shes also called dico (; i've heard its because her name can be misunderstood (;

  • Off her website - She uses both names professionally. Dickow when home in Denmark.

  • i know. (;

  • and what if she's at home in Demnark and replies to an email from, e.g., the UK?

  • cant anyone make a contry version of this one? (sorry for my bad englich)

  • how so?

  • she sings my life

  • Let's not forget Marianne Faithfull's dark- side version on Broken English :)

  • Beautifully sung...great vocals...great feel...it's all about the feel with which you sing the song....amazing

  • simply Awesome...

    respecting those who prefer John Lennon's (not Green day's) this is the best "working class hero" i've ever hard

  • after the original this is my first pick

  • nice song :)

  • this is beautyful! its got the purity of the original and a great voice. respect.

  • wow wow perfeect thx

  • this is the second best version i've ever heard!

    perfection.

  • Great 5/5

  • wow, very nice. goose-bumps

  • great cover. tina does it perfectly. great job.

  • is something to be..maybe?

  • OMG! Tina's voice is great, glad I ran into this beautiful cover. Tina's got a new fan. Thanks for posting.

  • wow

    Absolutely a stunning version of one of my all time favorite songs. Simply perfect, john would be proud of that.

  • WOW! this is an amazing cover! love for tina!!

  • Ske is called Tina Dico in English and Tina Dickow in Danish.

  • green day are the best performers for this song!!!!!!!!!!

  • they are not

  • hun hedder Tina Dickow?

  • Jo hun gør, men i udlandet Kalder hun sig Dico. - Kunstnere, du ved:)

  • @Skizoid01 dickow er lidt for kompliceret for the big screen hehe

  • Thanks again for understanding but you dont need to be sry lol you didnt do anything. I feel really bad about the whole incident peace and I think its a good video. Honestly I think she sings very well. Wished I could sing lol. Got a tape recorder recently recorded my voice and said wo is that really my voice? any ways take care. I subscribed to u

  • In that case I´m not sorry lol. - I remember this Gary Larson cartoon. It´s a room of inventors, and they have just made the first tape recorder, major brakethrough, but all they can do is laugh about how funny they sound, when they record them self:) Thanks for subscribing to my videos, I hope i will make more in the future - take care.

  • I hope you understand I did not mean you. and I am sorry for leaving these rude messages on your nice videos. Really im not this kind of person that you might think I am. Again sry for the comments. Nothing against your cover personally.

    peace

  • Hi - I´m sorry, I had actually replied to your last message, but apparently it never came up. - What I wanted to say was, that I can easily understand your conserne, when it comes to young people being influenced by bad things. And it feels like there´s more and more of that going on. - I guess, maybe, a lot of kids don´t know who they are yet, so they try on different things. Anyway, I did´nt think you were rude. I´m glad we had this exchange:) Peace to you Sir

  • it is a good thing that people like his music, I like that alot. Its just that I hate being surrounded by fakes. I dont know whos real any more. In my school, when kids hear something new the very first time, they change there looks, they change how they talk, change there friends, thoughts everything.... If they want to act like someone I guess its good that they get hooked on john but if thats the case, you can imagine that people can easily get hooked on some terrible messages from other's

  • I agree with you, but I think that alot at your age haven´t found them self yet. They don´t know who they are, so they change all the time in an attempt to find out. It´s just a guess. - But I can see your conserne, if kids get hooked on the wrong things and messages. - Anyway, you seem to be thinking for yourself, keep doing that:)

  • Great now theres a bunch of people doing lennon covers! You fucking people had know idea he had other songs besides imagine until green day and the other singers did covers on them! I hate fucking wanabie posers. Ive been listening to lennon since I was 6,7. Those people just realized zeppelin,Marley,Floyd existed and the rest! And look at them, they make it so un cool walking around with there billboard t-shirts broadcasting there musical taste. Now there gonna do it to my long time hero Lennon

  • I thought it was a good thing, if other people discovered John Lennons songs? - Hopefully they´l go back and listen to the originals. - The reason why so many have been making covers, is that Yoko Ono gave Amnesty International the rights to re-record John Lennons solo albums, to help save Darfur. - Is´nt that in the spirit of John Lennon? - I hope you dont loose interrest in his music, just becouse other people start listening to it. - Take care.

  • Show some respect.

  • WAOOOOO i love your version ...GREAT job

  • Check out my version of this song

  • It don´t get any better...

  • Szerintem kurva jó!!(

    FROM Hungary)

  • nagyon fasza

  • She simple makes it the best song in the world..

    Hun gør den ganske enkelt til den bedste sang i verden..

  • Except she didn't 'make' this song... Great talent though.

  • bkrintel said she makes it the best song in the world. There for he didn't say she made the song. He said that she improved it to a state where it was the best song in the world. If he had said she made the best song in the world your comment would be spot on.

    please read a post befor you comment it and yeah its a good song and she sings it very well

  • it already was......

  • this is so cool, i love your version of this great song.
