Drake Bell- "Blackbird"

[blueyou000]

well at least he's better than STUPID FREAKIN JESSE MCCARTNEY

[iMcCamSam]

@luvbugale no offence, but cameron mitchell from the glee project did a way better job

[celastik]

a cool game:

[KarryUndercover7]

Jesse McCartney's version is waaaay better

[crazy4shya]

ewwww

[Psychedozzzer]

i never really liked him but i have more respect for him now...

[Aknight292]

still the best cover i've heard of this song belongs to Bryce Avary or The Rocket Summer. but Drake did a pretty good job on it, i'm not gonna lie. he's a legit musician. not just some tv actor forced into the music world

and jesse mccartney? really? you bring him into this? come on now

[MusiqueFille33]

See, Drake knows what his goal should be in his singing business. He barely messed with the arrangements and he did very well. BEATLES FOREVER!!!

[AnoniempjuUndercover]

i prefer Jesse McCartney's version over this one anyday

[gbson2398]

i see paul mc cartney and drake bell play black bird on vip premiun

[lebomatseke]

the security guard was like 'right on' and the girls are like 'he's so hot'- and thus music evolves I guess... I love this song- it's hopeful. Jesse McCartney, bless him, didn't understand it. He has a good voice but that's not the point is it?

[OddlyRandomPro]

i get alot of shit for liking drake bell.

i just grew up watching drake and josh.

and i love this guy, and the beatles.

idc what anyone says.

[pizapiza245]

Emo hair cut?

Good Singing?

This boy has it in him! He totally did better then Cartney, but I still think Jesse's cute! ;D

[sk8terafl]

drake had it sound like the beatles that wut i like! long live the beatles and drake

[electrocuteanna]

I personally prefer this version over Jesse McCartney's. This song was meant to be gentle and calm, not soulful. Or at least, I think it sounds best that way.

[BellAdrian]

the best¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[fguka]

drake is awesome and hes hilarious but hes playing this completely wrong.

[Carolineissweet1]

it sounds horrible!!!

[jessshaun623]

That's more like it! I just listened to Jesse McCartney turn this song into a meaningless pop song... I'm glad Drake Bell did it well! Drake is awesome anyway. He's got to be! My sons name is Drake!

[mfilyahoo]

you know what's funny? nobody's singing along... lol.

[JMacLover1996]

Jesse McCartneys version is sooo much better!!!!!!!! you can actually hear what jesse is saying!

[HaLfPiNaYGiRl96238]

not as great as the paul mccartney version but better than the jesses mccartney version!

[meLuvs2act]

this cover is waaaayyyy better than jesse mccartneys i mean jesse ruined the song drake did pretty good not as good as the original though :)

[jessstarr09]

he did his own thing, but still kept it true to the original. THAT is how covers should be!!

LOVE it.

[MattTC1028]

it's great. especially since he's a huge beatles fan. i accept this.

[bluecrow00]

thought he miss some notes and went a bit fast he made an ok cover, so thoese who say it's crap only because he plays it are as fool as the ones who say is better than the original only because he plays it ... well maybe a bit less

[Beatlemania107]

better than McCartney but not THE McCartney

[Laron2219]

Haha be messes up at 0:42

[noamben2]

well, the beatles will always be better, but drake did a surprisingly good job. he didn't "put his own twist on it" or anything and it still sounded great.

[millenniumguy1885]

Wow its decent. 8/10 good job on the guitar and the vocals were almost spot on,Almost.

[kidtheskid]

both of the covers sucks hard

[HugeDrakeBellFan]

Drake did better than Jesse McCartney, Of that there's no doubt in my mind. "Jesse put his own twist on it" Why ?

Because he can't do it properly. A cover is a cover. It's not a cover, oh, but I think I might do it like this, possibly because I can't do it properly.

And I can hear Drake fine.

And Drake can play the instrument himself. Correctly. Unlike the person that played FOR Jesse McCartney.

So, how is Jesse's better ?

[Jmacloverxoxo]

Jesse McCartney's cover of this was way better, you cant even really hear Drake, and Jesse actually put his own twist on it...

[caitg1]

Classics can't be done by nick/disney stars like him, sorry but the beatles version will always be #1.

[peregrinamd18]

drake es cool

[ViViii123G]

when i hear ppl doing covers of classics like blackbird, i always wonder if the orignal artists (paul mccartney) really gave them permission to do so.... either way, drake's not bad, but if paul saw this performance, he'd probably be laughing.... or crying.....

[surfnakd23]

Good question. I hear Michael Jackson owns the rights to it. and many beatles songs..?

[jebb4ever]

now i forgot witch company it was but now a video game copany owns all the beatles music

[milongadelrock87]

no soporto a la gente que copia temas de otros grupos, y ensima todos dicen que el tema es de el, cuando realmente es del mejor grupo de la historia,, Los beatles.

[iamdamaster1]

ok so this isnt the beatles, but its better then jesse's because he actually played the same guitar part

[wamouse]

My comment was in response to another comment. I am quite aware that this is Drake Bell, I was at the very concert where this video was filmed.

[565tsunade565]

i dont think he does that good if you wanna hear something better hear it by the people who made it THE BEATLES!!!!!!

[musicxisxlife1]

tooo fassstt

[himisjim]

too fast too gay and just overall lame

[drakebellfan1994]

I really like this song:D:D:D:D

[PoisonFingers13]

pretty decent. (:

[AziZibmen]

nope, nope, nope you cant do it, ur not allowed to do blackbird. not unless ur better that the beatles (which is virtually IMPOSSIBLE)

[23leo17]

yeah but he did alright

[foundawaylover]

i love this jacket

[HM3]

Drake Bell is the only musician that really have talent, also he comes from the old school of rock, I was reading his biog in Wikipedia and he took lesson directly from Mr Roger Daltrey (for those who don't know, he is the lead vocal of The Who)

[singular23]

never heard of this guy, but cool he covers beatles.. he messes up at 0:42

[jipegirl]

i thought he did a great job with this song.i am a jesse macartnty fan but i think drake did better than he did with this song.i wish the sound was better though

[bekkynixon]

0_0 THIS IS NOT A JESSE MCCARTNEY SONG.

He covered it!

It's by a little group called, uh, THE BEATLES!!?

You may have heard of them. -_-

[HM3]

LOL I think that all the little girls that just listen to the JB, Jesse McCartney (this guy doesn't even deserve to have that last name) and all the Teen Pop/Rock groups of this music era, I just too sad

[565tsunade565]

i know i wish younger kids listened to good music and dont mistake this song to be made by jesse mccartney cause it wasnt it was made by PAUL MCCARTNEY of the beatles

[wamouse]

Are you serious? This is a Beatles song! By a McCartney, sure, but PAUL MCCARTNEY, not Jesse.

[lfc4eva811239]

to hear a good version of this song go type in BEATLES blackbird it will blow the shit out ur mind

[katchup12on13]

I thought the beatles were the only ones who could pull this song off, but drake did a really fantastic job.. long live the legen of the beatles.. people need to bring the back because the generations are slowly loosing grip of them.. and they need to be remembered.. !!

[MartinAndEnrique]

he's a led leppelin fan too he should do a cover of an acoustic song from them

[spiderral08]

Yeah, he gained more popularity if he did that but Drake is popular enough! Drake ftw!

[spiderral08]

I meant Drake would gain more popularity...

[drakebellyta]

i love drake hahaha i love the covers of the beatles !!

xd

<33

[emile235]

wow i mean WOW

[McFLYstarrGIRL]

i dont really like this guy. but he def did a better job on this than jesse mccartney did.

[yellowsubmarine1234]

u love drake bell and i love this song but as a huge beatles fan i have to say i like the beatles version better

[DrakeBellFTW]

obviously the beatles are better

[yellowsubmarine1234]

yeah haha obviously the beatles are like timeless legends

[Ninjalongboarder]

pauls version was better, but still wasnt that bad. and i have like the same exact guitar as that...yup

[ichigofangirl330]

Your horrible.

(to:JudeRiddle)

[iminclover]

Why do americans have to do everything at double speed? Have you heard Jesse McCartney doing it? Absolutely disgusting :(

[mystery738]

Paul's was better.

It sucks that 9 year old girls see this and think he wrote it.

[lindenman1]

i agree he shouldnt take credit for someone elses work but u have to admit it was a good cover

[MikeySuaske]

Yeah well he is a beatles fan so of course he wasnot tyring to take their credit from them. He was trying to live up to the standards of his favorite band.

[lovedrake4ever]

nobody thinks drake wrote this

they are just saying he did a good cover

that´s it

and he´s not trying to take the credit

[weiird3kiid]

compaired to jesse mccartney this is great.compaired to the beatles...it pretty much doesn't even hold a candle.

[GerlovesCami]

jesses version sucked! all it was is "ah yeah, yeah rite, blackbird singing yeah alrite yeah dead of yeah yeah night"

[themanfiles]

this is pretty good, just has bad waulity sound from camera and mike

[pigd1666]

Wow, under any other circumstances, I would say these next words I am about to spit our are way out of line, but, I think there is a certain circle in Hell reserved for people like you who say stuff like that about The Beatles or any of the members.

[LiveTheLyf3ULuv]

he did not ruin the song that was his thing on it.. twisted huis own flavor on it.. drake didnt really switch it up.. i mean im not sayin that the jesses better then the beatles orignal.. because we all kno the beatles stuff.. awesome. im just sayin that jesse did a good job twistin it in his version.. shit was hot so stop hatin

[lovedrake4ever]

u have to accept it

jesse´s version SUCKS!!!!

one thing is twisting it a little bit and another very different thing is changing the song completely

[darkeyedmusician]

agreed! i nearly shit my pants and threw up when i heard jesse's version. Beatles are the one and only but i admit i think drake will be the only one that gets close other than sarah mclachlan.

[einfgg]

well first of all nobody should make a remake from someone like paul mcartney. that is a mistake in itsel.f if you do remake the song atleast try to be origional and change it up a litte. this was ridiculous

[bittersweet764]

"Jesse McCartney did Blackbird better than the beatles"

you must be kidding...there is no way i can actually take that comment seriously. Paul (McCartney....as in The Beatles for you uneducated teeny boppers out there)is the ONLY one who can do this song right. Its honestly depressing that no one knows where this music originally came from. Brush up on your classic music. Anyways, The best cover i've heard is by Sarah McLachlan on the I Am Sam soundtrack.

[yummieinmytummie]

This is definitely better than the Jesse McCartney rendition ( that one was ridiculous), but I've heard better versions- King's Singers.

[pinkwater7253]

I've seen him do this song live and it was amazing!!!

[iggizzy2]

OMG Jesse McCartney did the same SONG!!!!!

[kayui2]

ya but jesse is a twat and ruined the song

[IwannRock]

i love it when he sing it... it's amazing....

and i love drake

[wamouse]

YAY! I was there! Way in the back... But I still got a Drake Bell shirt! ^^

[LisaLovesDrakeBell]

AWESOME!

[drakeandicollide]

i love Blackbird by Drake! he did an amazing job it could have not been more perfect <3
