[111DreamCatcher]

[admiralackbar999]

[TherealCitizenGhost]

My brother named his baby girl after this tune; I love my brother: I love his baby girl. Family rules.

[jrt88fan]

I grew up on this song thanks to my dad, love it!

[K155fan]

some say that this song is a recording of their breathing, backwards.

and some say that this song is the second coming of god, the first being the pen used to write it.

all we know is- their called the Allman Brothers band

[spontanfilm]

Makes singing obsolete...

[TheRageGuys]

I knew this song before Top Gear so HA!

[Blompcube]

@TheRageGuys what you talking about? This was written by the famous songwriting trio, Clarkson/May/Hammond, specifically for Top Gear. I thought everyone knows that :-P

[16kittykar]

one of my favorites from the day ... actually named one of my dogs after this song :)

[joedalton155]

stfu with top gear

[raptothecore]

I wish Duane was on this song too, still pretty awesome



[abx93ify]

Tonight. The brighter, whiter way to ruin your underpants.

[superajaxfan2]

top gear!!! 

[pallavmishra]

Duane Allman was a God of Guitar....RIP, Duane...

[Ocantus]

@pallavmishra The one playing the solo on this was the legendary Dickie Betts. Dickie also wrote this song. Originally, this song was meant to have 2 guitar solos. One for Dickie and one for Duane. Duane died before this was recorded and so, the first solo (meant for Duane) was made into a piano solo. Both Dickie and Duane were amazing in their own right. They were THE Dynamic Duo.

[TheAmazingVoiceMan]

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls....  The Allman Brothers Band!!

[anonymous1234269]

Tonight: James wears a hat. Richard... wears a hat. And I wear a hat with things on it.

[aznivx]

TOP GEAR FTW!!

[sanibottom]

Any Canadians or Canada/US border dwellers remeber this in the context of the CBC's, 1970's 'Reach for the Top' theme?

[GpeterKostwinder]

Tonight in Top Gear:

Does a banana realy need to have peel? 'cause I slip with my new Ferrari F430 Scuderia over a banana peel. And James is doing some unusual things with a wheelchair in the savannah of Bangladesh. And Richard is just wearing his pajamas.

[staidenofanarchy]

[ItzCashew]

This song is ambitious... and actually not rubbish.

[shiga88jzs155z]

How hard can it be?

[martin9172]

Why does it say that you have 0 videos?

[captaindillo]

I thank myself for introducing me to this awesomeness

[PaulyDKiD55]

NiCe SoNg =)

[redsoxfan1324]

I agree the show is going downhill. it got too popular so now its getting too scripted and the challenges are just stupid. And ive always wished they just put the original song as the tune.

[TheUnderquakerXBLS]

TOP GEAR

[anonymous1234269]

Tonight: Cameron Diaz in our reasonably priced car. I REPEAT Cameron Diaz in our reasonably priced car! AND she's brought Tom Cruise along!

[redsoxfan1324]

I thank the Allmon Brothers for introducing me to the awesomeness that is Top Gear. I was never intrested in cars until I herd this song come on BBCA and thought to myself anything with Jessica as a theme song has to be good. Now ive seen every Top Gear episode at least once and Im a petrolhead for life (alas :( I have never owned an Alfa...)

[marklandynut]

@redsoxfan1324 I came to it the other way around. I was interested in anyhting on wheels when I was at school, so I watched William Woolard & co on Top Gear, and I loved the theme tune. It was quite a long time later I discovered it wasn't written for Top Gear and was a lot longer than the theme tune. I've now found a web radio station that plays it. But I don't watch Top Gear any more. I can't stand what they've done to the show in recent years and hate way they've murdered the theme tune.

[timothy1573]

@marklandynut They didn't murder it. When new top gear came out, the publishing company copyrighted it so Top Gear intro had to modify it. Come on, tomorrow is Top Gear Christmas Special. Just watch it. Top Gear actually was transformed from and educational show to a hilarious show.

[ccaammiiittoo1]

A simply great band. No need to gild the lily!

[xxTAARGUS]

I thank Top Gear for introducing me to this awesomeness .

[mikepakalak]

Is Butch Trucks Derrick's father?

[WindsOfCreation]

@mikepakalak He's his uncle!

[luisalonsoecheverria]

@mikepakalak Butch Trucks is Derek's uncle!

[titelistfan99]

some say he is illegal in 24 u.s. states some say he is cousins with alvin the chimpmunk

[shiga88jzs155z]

power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!



[death555ful]

Who knew that when this song was being written that it would become the theme tune to the most famous car show on earth.

[saintrowmaster]

4 people dont like top gear apparently

[zipandzug]

tonight on TopGear we throw a chair over a hedge.

[er38]

Dickey Betts guitar solo makes me happy, so very happy!

[matt9676]

Tonight on Top Gear, Richard tries to outrun an F-18 eagle with a Bugatti Veyron.

[darlenemarie0905]

So Dickey Betts wrote "Jessica" because apparently he and his wife had a daughter by the same name--they musta been ecstatic over her and by now she's gotta be in her late 30's?! But the song is ageless and decades later people are still naming their daughters after it--my bro and his wife did :D Happy, happy tune--it's never failed to pick me up!

[greatcomedian18]

amazing jam song!

[Jessica52456]

i dont need to comment....jus luk at my name...hehe

[03iamhopeless]

@Jessica52456 oh tonight's show, Jessica listens to Jessica :D

[yamachicken]

@Jessica52456 look*

[JeeJeyZee21]

If I have a daughter soon someday, imma name her Jessica !

[iheartwashing]

I remember feeling pretty proud when my dad was listening to this in the car one day and yelling over top of the music, "This is what you're named after!" This reminds me of him and that car trip everytime :)

[Pritchard4ET]

My Girlfriends Dad named her after this song. Me and him get along well :)

[jesst007]

too bad its all cash money grillz n bitches..lol...rap sux..old school hip hop is bad ass n so is this shit...get away from ur techno device n do sumthin. oh i feel old lol

[MattHatter]

Dickey just giving it ALL he's got on this one. That solo is just one of the best ever. I remember how fascinating this song was to me as young kid in the early '80s. I can never get enough of it!

[AVJunkProductions]

Did you forget to mention Duane Allman in your list of the members...?

[DrMerkwuerdichliebe]

@AVJunkProductions

Duane was already dead by the time of "Jessica" : /

[AVJunkProductions]

@DrMerkwuerdichliebe Really? I never knew that. I always assumed he was the one playing the lead guitar. Thanks for sharing that.

[musiccridict]

tonight james is on fire, richard thinks he's jesus, and i think im going to die

[dhbarron100]

i have a cousin jessica!!! this song reminds me of being drunk and stoned in high school!!!!allman brothers concerts at the tweeter center; partying in the parking lot and on the lawn!!!

[carl00s01]

Thumbs up if your name is Jessica or know someone with this name :)

[daddyluv123]

Always reminds me of Field of Dreams

[generalle2]

[bossa0927]

Piano Solo is so funky!!

[mattjnor98]

Tonight on Top Gear...

[gr8nest]

Les Dudek thinks he got ripped off for partial songwriting

credit.

[geoffk54]

I saw the Grateful Dead with the Allman Brothers June 10, 1973 at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C. I was a 19 year old college student. This is the only song I remember from that day. I remember the song ringing in my ears in the cavernous stadium. Wonderful!!!

[xClutchxMasterx77]

@geoffk54 your freakin lucky

[DrNugz027]

@geoffk54 Sounds like something I hope to do in my lifetime with any concert :)

[laxman0808]

i wish i could play that song on the guitar as well as them

[probrojeffro]

Just such a classic, classic sound. It's so etched in the minds of people it's like the song was never created but always was. Perfect.

[PumpingSmashkins]

damn near perfection.

[episkopi08]

Nearly forgot how much I love this. Used to have the LP. Don't know what happened to it. Used to play it on my old Bush record player.

[MJLatora]

I have to nominate this as one of the top three rock instrumentals of 'em all, along with Stevie Ray Vaughn's cover of " Little Wing " and Eric Johnson's " Cliffs of Dover."

[generalle2]

TONIGHT I WEAR A HAT, RICHARD WEARS A HAT, AND JAMES WEARS A HAT

[tred4141]

@generalle2 Tonight i wear a hat, Richard wears a blue hat, and james wears a hat with things on it

[animefreakc94]

@tred4141 What colour is your hat? Does it have 'things' on it? Things...like james things?

[MultiStupidstudio]

@generalle2 so you wath top gear to! hahaha

[MichaelD8393]

@generalle2 my favorite episode.

[AaronCCR]

[colt11886]

[CrazyMizfan11]

lol i remember playing this on guitar hero and thinking how weird it sounded :P

[darthzydar]

TONIGHT..

[Thebigk5]

It's funny, I was born almost 20 years after this came out but I have nostalgia for it. Makes me think of the last day of school my Junior year, driving around with my best friends. :)

[tootall11211]

Southern Rock doesn't get better than this, save maybe for the original version of Freebird.

[ccaammiiittoo1]

@tootall11211 It certainly doesn't!

[27wingnut]

all I can say is: Thank you Dickey......thank you.

[randyschuele]

Thanks to my local classic rock station for playing this. Even though i listen to tons of older music, the radio still opens doors to songs i don't know. Long live radio.

[forrestc3]

I find it funny how this is Top Gear's theme and they are always making fun of America... this song can't get more American!

[EdmondSwitch]

My Mom use to whistle this song to get me to walk when I was a baby. Rocker born and raised and no I knew how awesome this song was before Top Gear used it.

[elvismitico1]

grande canzone, bellissima grande band

[odonnell1218]

Tonight, I wear some goggles!

[Rick5C]

LOVE THIS SONG! so does my baby jessica and her sister melissa.

[wokeupthismorning100]

[streetcornersongbird]

Tonight, Richard tries to get in a humvee, the Stig rides shotgun, and James goes slow.

@tazzmaniandeville Guilty. Though I enjoy me some Allman Bros.

[docdisco81]

[012237rdt]

Ladies and Gentlemen this is the real thing. Not a couple of bars by a cheap cover band !

Tonight, the Stig climbs into a bucket of hot wallpaper paste, Richard sorts out public transport, and James gets beaten up..by a boat

[09ICCE200]

[Rekatrednu15]

i think its funny how most of the comments of this song are about top gear a.k.a. the greatest show....in the world.

[sonyviva308]

IT"S TOP GEAR!

[NowaMikulPraht]

The other day I was talking to one of my friends about this song and when he said "Jessica is on Guitar Hero", which I had hadn't heard of at the time, I proudly exclaimed: "No dumbass, it's on "Brothers and Sister's". Poor uninformed me...

[tcbflash100]

[tonymetgnr]

[tonymetgnr]
