the 60's...Send me a postcard by the shocking blue

[97kills]

Cool vid

[golemek18]

awesome !

[CAESARbonds]

Oh I miss these times although I was not born then.

But the spirit in the music is awsome.

so much more than comercial crap music of today.

[pjezierski]

'Die, Hippie, Die'.

[dbacksfan2]

Liberals

[AncilWayneSmith]

The Sixties were pretty cool,from what little I do remember. I was born in '61 so my memory of the Sixties is limited.

[8journey8]

Ahhh. How well I remember the 60's. We were the generation that was going to change everything through our LOVE. We were so idealistic. We were willing to drop everything and assemble for a Cause. We loved peace. We hated war. We were groovy. We were chilled out. I wonder now: did we make any real impression at all? A lot has changed...but... Is anything changed for the good because we tried to make it so? (And we did try). It's up to the next generation now.

[123123psy]

postcqrd with LSD fuckin dropped on

[mgsamps]

Yes it was awesome and so is this song. Shame we don't get this stuff in the charts these days instead of all that Hipop crap.

[Bullettube]

Yeah, I remember this song, it's from the Jefferson Airplane's first album. Good song, not their usual, but still good.

[TNTJahv1er]

fucking awesome!

[dance2deadmau5]

chick is sexy!

[backtonow2]

it's by Shocking Blue

[vangelisideras]

excelente canción de esta banda fundacional del nederpop o rock holandés; y las imagenes..jee también molan

[Delta9son]

SMI²LE , Drugs awesome, how video is this awesome.

[nomadsnest]

One of the best bands to ever come to America. To bad the American public wasn't ready for the sitar or Shocking Blues music.

[Scocondrilla]

cool drugs !

[rickhorror]

cool song

[konked]

This is - as already stated - Shocking Blue - Send Me a Postcard.

They were a Dutch band comprising of Mariska Veres voc, Robbie van Leeuwen gtr and composer, Klaasje van der Wal bass, Cor de Beek drums. They had several hits btw. 68-73 in Europe and USA where their best known song is "Venus" which sold 5 million worldwide. Mariska Veres died of cancer 2006 aged 59.

[HengistTheGreat]

Dutch music rocks. Nice info provided by konked, thanks.

[LESERGIO70]

This group comes from Netherland not from Deutschland

[konked]

Sure, they aren't a German group.

[oz9900]

yeah, this one is grat!!!

what is the name of this??( it is jefferson airplaine hein?)

pleiasse i what the name of this one!!

peace

[alejo5400]

comoooo se llama esa cansion!!!!!????

wats is name this song???

jaja lo de ingles creo q lo escribi para el culo jeje

[ubangiestomp]

I noticed you have a picture of black sabbath at 0:36 thru 0:39.That picture was taken in the 70s.They ran counter to the 60s generation.Sabbath rules.Horns up!

[konked]

They were indeed different in style, but if you listen the intro of this song and the sound of it isn't that far from say "Black Sabbath" the song or even "Paranoid" There's nuff distortion to any hairmetal band of the 80's for sure.

[Sockbot27]

Have you ever listened to Hendrix? That is distortion my friend. And he was around before these guys were.

[konked]

I have, and Jeff Beck was before him and even Keith Richards :)

[Sockbot27]

Sweet then you should know distortion has been used for quite awhile. (And was used better in the 60s-70s then nowadays in my opinion.)

[konked]

It always requires sense of style and good taste what sound to use and where and to realise what kind of sound the piece or the audience can stand up to so to speak. Carpenters raised confusion using one electric guitar solo :) But imagine Symphony of Destruction without the distortion???

[Sockbot27]

Hahaha yea Megadeth definitively wouldn't sound right without distortion. But i think because distortion was new in the 60's, it sounded better because guitarists didn't DEPEND on it, they thought of it as a new tool. Nowadays distortion is just about every guitarists back bone.

[atento611]

absolutely right bro!

[sehrpalu]

why would somebody like the 60's or that song????

[ghanaria]

you can leave

[sdm757]

you have to fucking ask?

[Fairestt]

ehm yea... go enjoy the 90's or somethin , bloody sheep.

Send Me a Postcard by The Shocking Blue

[RollingStoned92]

you should change the title of the video to the song name so ppl can find it easier

[jourecitygangster]

you dont need anything for weed

you only need weed and a can of cola or beer,, make a hole in the can ,, lay the weed on it,, fire the weed,, and suck at the drinking hole... GOODLUCK

[FingerLickinGravy67]

weed just takes paper, hollowed cigar, er pipe

[RubbyKid]

weed doesnt require tobacco to smoke. tobacco is used to make a joint more rounded and even. it doesnt have to be used though

[Chlorproteksen]

who is a performer of this song?

[6458522]

shocking blue. great band they did Venus and never marry a railroad man. awesome drummer and cool keys.

[KN0EST]

Take it easy folks, quarrelling can't be the message of this band. Great track.

[OpaKuno]

I wish they all were here now

[xojbabyxo]

A lot of the beganing pictures are from Jefferson Airplane!Drugs had a big inpact of the 60's.Remember the Herb of the Earth is the greatest worth.

[Lyricoholic]

the shocking blue - send me a postcard

[dertin03]

man war sucks defonatly but there was war in the 60s people stood up to it back then more than they do now which was a good thing however the 60s wasnt all that good rasism was very bad as was homophobia and women's rights 60s were about being pissed off with that and fighting for it however we have them now you can't bring back the 60's but if your pissed off with the goverment and socail standerds its time to start a new movement

[cycimian]

I see dirtregens got another Youtube identity. People stood up because they woke up to the fact it was the most foul corruption from industry to religon ruleing over them like sheep. Now in Corperate ZioCon media theres no freedom of Press, Your either a member of the CFR or your not Cable or Satelite worthy. Freedom comes from all those who died protecting it Shill. You make no pertanent or relivant points here on your tardo down time. Shouldnt you be back haunting the 911 pages where ISP hazU

[sawik1000]

this song name is:Jefferson Airplane -Somebody To Love

[Lyricoholic]

you're wrong mate

she sounds like grace slick :)

its the shocking blue

[animeguts]

i'm trying to bring the 60's back if anyones interested message me i know i'm not the only one tired of this corprate bullshit so let's have a peaceful revolution

[AncilWayneSmith]

Turn on,Tune in,Drop out!!! Peace,brother!!!

[xSpacexCowboyx]

you HATE THE 60's look how bad were doing now GLObal warming and war.

[r1o2s3i4e5]

The war sucks but man causing global warming is a bunch of crap!! The earth has warmed and cooled over and over in its millions of years, its going to cost taxpayers billions just like in the 80's with the cfc's causing a hole in the ozone everyone paid big money for freon change outs now that was proven to all be wrong and it was dropped like a hot potato and now the global warming THEORY has been picked up and ran with,Repubs make fortunes on big business and dems make theirs on doom and gloom

[matthewkeri12345]

If you hate drugs because they're illegal try salvia or nitrous oxide there legal and really cool

[Mase58]

or DMT

[TLO421]

dmt is highly illegal... ranking up there as a class I drug with heroine and such

[matthewkeri12345]

Whats with all the hate in these comments man.

I look at all the people who hate hippies and they just all look so hate full. They come on here just to tell everyone HEY! you can't be yourself, you have to work like the freaking baby killers. And then the complaining! Oooo, They caughsed aids! and Oooo, There the reason social security is going under and over population. well get this through your conservative heads sex drugs and rock and roll are fun and your just jelous.

peace

[jazzerooski]

I'm with you, even though I consider myself conservative. I like it when you say, "Be yourself." That's what it is all about, not legislating to others how they should behave. That's my problem with organized religion, the concept is good, self awareness, self actualization and learning one's place and meaning in the world, but religions tend to be run by those who want to control others, not help them. I have a great respect for those who lived in the 60's, even though I'm too young to know

[SvChamp]

Were any of you fags alive during the hippie age? If not stop bitching about what happened years ago.

[petros50]

wow, what a comments here. have to put some of my own here too. well, country; the netherlands, song Send me a Postcard. group: shocking blue (inspired, yes, by jefferson airplain). other hits in the usa: Venus (there biggest one all over the world) Mighty joe and Long and lonesome road.

singer is Mariska Veres, sadly died on 2 of december 2006, age 59.

petros50

[leerider52]

The best 10 years I don't remember after the Marines Corp...Hey "SocietyReject" hows that Mexican Invation going if they get there way, your on your way back to Europe??? Military don't need to be anywhere... right?...right??

[directv232]

aww the sixties, wat a waste of 10 yrs

[faelixx]

What song is this?

[dave98503]

go fight in iraq, assholes.

[mrbag60]

Great song from 1968 called "Send Me a Postcard" sung by Mariska Veres with her band Shocking Blue. They later scored their only US hit, "Venus" which went to #1 for a week in February 1970.

[mariskaveresforever]

@mrbag60 well, mighty joe and long and lonesomeroad where also hits in the usa(but not as big as venus ofcourse)

[Prometheus336]

This Song simply rocks....but the video sucks...

[redneck10293]

song?

[vertox123abc]

lol love the zong man! wish i was in the 60's

[myabrooklyn]

huh huh.....old people

[fatadam16]

drop acid

not bombs!!

[jakenjoi]

Bomb hills not countries.

Skate or die...Or dont skate, whatever you want really, its your life. Be original and do what you want to do.

[FasterThanYou321]

Be original? Every freaking hippy looks exactly the same. 50,000 people at Woodstock, or however many it was, and dude looks like every other dude, and every chick looks like every other chick. What originality?

[dave98503]

that's communism for ya.

[Glyvxx]

Your right. Hippies do suck. The music and art rocks...I do psychadelic music based on death, violence, science, etc

[bambam567]

send me a postcard shocking blue

[weezer10001]

whats so bad about hippies u guys were or still are jocks huh? your the ones who suk fags

[juanns19]

yes hipies sucks!!!

[poganskosrce]

kill all hippies

[Welcome2MyHell6]

without hippies we would never have the right to question the goverment or womens rights to vote, tye-dye,or the vote age be 18 so thank the hippies cause without them the beatles would never have been here and then music would suck

[Timzack]

haha thats pretty untrue, the notion that hippies are the sole or even primary pioneers of civil liberties is historically false babe. And the people who got the voting age changed were the ones who had been getting shot at n a jungle hell, not the ones sitting around smoking.

[BMXER1987]

oh but smoking the mersh is sooo much fun cant i please pretend it me thats doing good not the hard working soldiers lol

[SenorMcNasty28]

well you got one part right.... wait no that was all wrong

[FasterThanYou321]

Wow, you're really a drone of the leftist media-entertainment complex. The Beatles came in 1964. Hippies came later. The Constitution gives us the right to question the government, not freaking hippies. Women won the right to vote in 1920. I didn't realize there were hippies in 1920.

How many 18-year-olds vote? Based on statistics from the 2004 election it's about 8% of 18-year-olds take the time to vote. Guess they were too busy playing video games.

I think I've proven that you're a fool.

[FN45]

I can tell your a white person.

[bobhouse0000]

Not Jefferson Airplane. It's by Shocking Blue.

[acctbizzky]

Peace on earth............

[bowlingwillow]

Shocking Blue - 1968.

Their other hits were "Venus" and ""Never marry a railroad man".

Both on youtube...

[drumer114]

Hippies rulez! Look at 0:35 - 0:40 --- that`s Black Sabbath! But this band was never hippie one.

[smokeyguy]

its kinda got that in-a-gadda-da-vida sound in it... awesome song!!!

[simo66]

how the hell have i not heard of this band before, there awesome, sound like jefferson airplane but heavier, although this is the only song of theres ive heard.

[tigersharkmonkey]

lol it is jefferson airplane

[VictimEuropa]

The Joke is that that all the destructive liberal mystic hocus pocus that the pseudo marxist Hippies thought their own was rather a deliberate media manipulation to weaken the resolve of a nation and a culture. Once weakend it is easier to take over-manipulate and promote- WAR!!

That is what you get today- consumer morons and global war and domination...thanks to these 1960s idiots prancing about on narcotics and narcissim. They left the door open-They are responsible for War today.

[jaycrosson8]

wow you are REALLY stupid

[peetarararar]

agreed.
