Jack Johnson - THE NEWS MUSIC VIDEO

[DaMan478]

song makes me want to cry...

[justinca000]

this is what my dreams will be tonight i hate watching the news before i go to sleep it's only been depressing program after depressing program on september 11th 2011.

[nd2018ds]

I find it really interesting that this song was released in 2001. The same year as 9/11. R.I.P all those who died on that day.

[only1joe4life]

The 2nd highest rated comment is right. However it does look like they learnt most of their literacy during the process of writing the comment. Lol

[TheRachelgomez]

Excellent work; the video really captures a message for this song.

[Thtwasrude]

Tbh, this should be the real music video.

[soccacutie11]

Amazing.

[aidanhahn]

A+

[MrDiabolickiwi]

what a lovely song

[Ataume]

Very well made. You really capture the sadness behind it all.

[mastterby]

[paix221]

I really thought this was the official video before I read the info.

Awesome job : )

[seeknthegreatperhaps]

We need to reduce world suck.

[jekellhyde]

... well mama said:

issues make belive, you can´t belive everything you see. So baby close your eyes to the lullabies, on the news tonight!

... well daddy said:

life can be so hard, babyboy, make a wish. What goes around comes around!

[FunkyFarmerNewsic]

well done! this song is as poignant as ever.

[sydneyrhxoxo]

where did you get all those news clips??

[hitzdaskinz]

Really powerful video. Great work.

[carrieme47]

i always cry when i watch terrible insidences on the news. it is truly heart breaking. i dont see how people dont

[Jhanbalaia]

Very nice video , this song is awesome by the way , the video just gets a little repititious after three quarters but still , it`s definitely rate A material.

[andywho1]

i wanna learn how to play this song sooo bad!

[benfrankln]

Thank you for doing right by this beautiful song.

[webjamin1]

ok i laugh at people who dislike videos on youtube and it pisses people off... i get it. but this song... its kinda disrespectful

[TheDevicer]

@webjamin1

How so?

[rustler540]

wow....great job

[ctee14]

Nice work.

[squeakysquiddles]

i just cried.

[Jubilantful]

wow! im very very impressed! great job you should be proud!!

[PwinZessKismet96]

This song is so sad yet so true, it brings back memories of me and my mum (:

[th1nkb4udo]

sad but eye opening ;(

[badphish006]

You completely missed the message of the song.... If you did this for a class I hope your instructor isn't familiar with Jack Johnson.

[fluffylovers]

war is murder

[benfrankln]

Thank you, JREYNOSO. My favorite Jack Johnson song, by far. And my favorite video rendition of it. Touches me.

[Caspaah151]

where is the replay button?!

[DaCavy]

I think this video is bad. I think it does not justice to the song and here is why:

Jack is allways hinting a better way and giving hope. This video fails to do so. It just shows (obviously and strong!) how bad the news can be and what it does to people and I agree. But I wouldve liked for example a Mother reading to her happy daugther instead of watching terror and fear.

People need more warmth and Jack is about that - show it in the videos too!

[bob2274765]

desensitization to death due to an over exposure of violence is a HUGE problem in todays society.. well stated Jack Johnson.. FANTASTIC SONG!!!!

[FreeNomad88]

@bob2274765 in short, people just don't care anymore..

[SPYKILLA1]

the reason why the newscasters dont cry to ppl dieying everyday bec. they experince death so much that they dont care anymore!!!!

[AtomicVHPunk]

wow...

this video is really good!

[Middayproductions]

Great video! It really came in sync with the song.

[MrGrtzlbrmpf]

awesome and very concussive video

[92smile29]

wauw...this is so beautiful...speechless

[DejaVuSu]

You made a very moving and beautiful vid. Just like the song......loved it.

[ZoeDesireeR]

its a really good video-thanks for putting it up

[treehugger901]

beautiful is a sad way

[dancingintherain6xo]

love this song it's so sad....... great video!

[0688thiago]

anybody knows were I can find the video of the version that he sings "last night" in the end of "the news"..???

[HUfan15]

the song is called "its all understood"

[joshfatzick291]

no its not

[HUfan15]

@joshfatzick291 i was talking to 0688thiago they asked for the song at the end of the vid

[jrucci123]

@HUfan15 no its not but idk wat this is called. does anyone?

[HUfan15]

ok dont believe me then just trying to help

[00Mandingo00]

People who watch the news need to wake up. The "news" shows are in it for RATINGS just like every other show. I hate watching them salivate over people's suffering because they know their ratings will go up.

FUCK THE NEWS...think for yourself. (Especially fox news)

[arafat24]

the people power the news... where does raitings come from... us... sadly we make what we hate...

[FOSTA2036]

fuck that dirty cop at 0:50 what a pig its cops like that who give the decent cops a bad name! and jack johnson is the greatest

[Frekas9291]

Why don't the newscasters cry when they read about people who die?

At least they could be decent enough to put just a tear in their eyes

-worth gold that line

[loubum]

i think you captured this song very well! i like the way you put the video together. not the most original idea but you most defiantly expressed it a lot better than other people have. well done!

[jadoredobby]

jack johnson - the news <3

xavier rudd - 12 september <3

just jack - the day i died <3

[PennyRoyaleTea]

Hard to believe this was out in 2007. Still as relevant as ever I see.

[kassimou]

i love the video but i wish you changed the point of view, instead of the brave soldiers dying, the innocent civilians that die in war for no reason.. its just something to think about, for every American / Canadian soldier at least 10 civilians die.. Great song too

[champboxer21]

war is so pointless and dumb. why kill each other? wow.

[ushiuni82]

Amazing song and a great video jack and xavier have so much in common there both so in touch with there roots and the world around them its like they channel it all to make great music

[SJMR94]

this song gave me chills

[Middayproductions]

[surfeygirl08]

[KenDedes94]

THAT is sad, but yet match the song.. good job!

[ashleyakasmiley247]

Diegetic- the (fictional) world in which the situations and events narrated occur; and telling, recounting, as opposed to showing, enacting.

[KashTunstall]

I think the diegetic hes referring to is the the world of sound. Its real sound as opposed to fake or unauthentic sound.

[6sringed1]

Jack is the man.He is the DYLAN of my generation.Awesome songwriter,gotta luv it.

[jenyouwhine]

Is diagetic a real word?:P

[pureinhart]

yeah lol

[chexxyl]

"It's All Understood" plays at the end. Thanks again to all who take the time to view and comment. Peace.

[e55amgkomp]

@JREYNOSO More people need to listen to Jack Johnson and the messages in his songs....I think the world would be a far better place....people need to listen to Bob Marley also...a man way ahead of his time....Jack and Bob's music is timeless !!! Both of these men have truly touched my heart over the years and both have truly changed my life.....PEACE !!!!

[fairiesrbeautiful]

that was so good. I'm trying to make a video for one of my songs, yoy make it look easy. that was a sick vid, the part with the handgun being cocked gave me the chills.

[skore69]

this should be the official music video anyway

[blueterrior]

just learned how to play this song

[terracrush1234]

Great edit.

Do you know this was used as an assignment in my government class?

[JREYNOSO]

Which part was used? The media coverage or ?

[terracrush1234]

No, the entire music video you put together was used. I think my teacher thought it was the official version.

[JREYNOSO]

Sorry but what was the assignment? By the way, thank you for your comment. Thanks to everybody else also. Peace.

[blueterrior]

i thought it was the official video too lol

[terracrush1234]

Well, and after we watch the video, the prompt asks us: "What is the artist's critique of the American political culture?"

[katty785]

this is really awesome.

[DAconfusedZED]

oh wow at first i thought this was a real music video by him. you did a great job

[tiopauleira]

You're great.

The news, here in brazil, are not diferent than other places.

The solution: turn off our tvs and live without so much terror.

[Florkand]

[neyeseek]

i like the news with the weather and all theres only like 5 deaths on the news a day anyways.

[TurdFerguson98]
