  • This song never fails to turn my day around :D

  • What would it mean to the leaders of industry if mankind were suddenly presented with nature’s gift of a sustainable green energy source?

  • best part of the song "its what you do not what you say if you're not part of the future than get out of the way"

  • so i definitely thought that black woman singing was a white woman...until now.

    mind=blown.

  • only one dislike and it's been out for 2 years :D

  • @davenh2003 Jon E. Gee, bass guitar.

  • I heard this song for the 1st time shortly before 9/11 then the on 9/12 I was on my way to my National Guard base not knowing what was going to happen, the sun was rising at 4:30am. Life took on a new meaning that day. We will never forget.

  • Israeli Mossad and CIA did 911, guess youre the last to know.

    The Director of Studies at the US Army War College (He trains our Generals) Dr Alan Sobrosky is on record on Youtube stating this fact

  • 9/11

  • Ever notice how you can skip the interesting ads but not the boring ones?

  • special song for me! Love it and love John;)

  • only 69,000 views?? wtf its an excellent song it diserves at the least 1,000,000

  • @aswordsofthemist It'd have more if it wasn't a fucking Vevo Cooperation video that just slows down RAM cause of all the ads it has to load. Remember the good old days when the people ran YouTube, and not the cooperations?

  • Song of Preciousness and Joy

  • John THIS is why we wanted you to become Senator of Indiana, I was part of that movement with my friend Jep (well Jep started it). You talk real talk, real America, not the big moneyed interests. I'm in Wisconsin and have been blasting this since the assault on working people (I'm an RN) in favor of Corporations. Middle and lower working classes unite (not much middle left) they HAVE to listen then!

  • I love this song, too bad I watched a 2 minute trailer beforehand.

  • @mkSNAKEninja adblock plus with firefox

  • Great song, and a reminder to me (aside from being a great song writer) why I've always appreciated Mellencamp. I've always liked his all American "cornyness", yet his obvious open-mindedness. He was way ahead of his time with the Cherrybomb video. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I like that he's a countryboy, but not a redneck and a racist. In fact, if your familiar with most of his music you probably realize that he's what most redneck racists call a "Liberal".

  • @sneakyguru That's why we love him!

  • Before George Bush when all was good with America..B4 the GOP pillaged all that was gained. This song says it all w a perfect title

  • I like it. He has not lost the value of his music since the 1980's. John has always had a way of conveying urban life.

  • Sure wish more people would express themselves like he does. John reminds me of Woodie Guthry, he has a handle on real life. So many of us just settle for what is shoved down our throats by the political machine and accept it as true representation.

  • Unfortunately, it wasn't enough and sometimes I wonder where we go from here. Thank you John for the message.

  • Official song of our veterans alumni assn dot org, bohemian r vets arts ..thank you all...this song helps us heal from our unseen wounds giving gracenotes..when words fail....music speaks. Anon vets

  • killer tune

  • @baxterfat People do over use the word, but to say it doesn't exist or imply that anyone who uses it hasn't a lick of common sense is by itself non-sense. Racism does exist but its very nature is larger than one person, bigotry, prejudice and stereotypes are the work of individuals. Racism is institutional, it exists in laws and structures.

  • jebb & brandy the 2 biggest hippocrits

  • John is, and will always be, my favorite musician.

  • Real violence is in people’s hearts not between Governments, or ideologies... you’re out of race and those who’re sitting on big chairs wants you to lick their feet or there’s no help…no favor. Their lust for controlling others lives has crossed that line where it’s become necessary to break their Golden chairs, bring down their asses and kick is so hard that they would want to listen you or Mr. Artist you dream on

  • My mother introduced this song to me when I was about 7 years old. It's been a huge message in my life since- it holds such strong thoughts and ideas. I love it! Always will!

  • I love John Mellencamp<3!!! He's always been terrific!! Grew up listening to him and loved all of his music! I totally agree with his politics and hope he someday runs for the Senate, he'd have my vote!! A most definate win for us all!:)

  • @TheRockfan68 A

    Amen, Prez would get us far it today world with him

  • I like his music. I hate his politics.

  • @JawsJaws So basically, you are a white racist farmer from Indiana.

  • @canetomm Don't be a dick. Why do people throw the word racist around when someone disagrees with them?

  • @JawsJaws i agree totally and completely.(well, maybe i don't hate his politics, but i dont like them)

  • i love this song.

  • What a great song! 

  • A looooot of people these days should start taking this song to heart....

  • India is one beautiful lady.

  • Still one of the best artists I have ever seen live.

  • One of my favorites. I don't agree with the political idiot part though. Seems like a no bullshit kind of guy to me, always has. A free spirit, generous and truly in love with his fellow people. We can't all be like that, much less musically gifted, I don't get why you'd want to bust his balls over the politics that he is immune to.. Dont misunderstand, I dont revere him as a god, he's just John with a guitar, get off his back.

  • This is such a great song-done by one of the few truly individual artists and thinkers that we have in this country. You may disagree with his thoughts but it is really clear that they are totally his. Nobody owns this man!! Gotta love that!!

  • You know when people talk about JM They never say what a strong great song writer he is. I bet I could quote 15 of his lyrics and most people would know who said it. From A Hoosier Living In Tennesse Take Care.

  • This truly is one of the best songs of our times. A major milestone for John Melancamp. It's tragic that he's such a political idiot

  • @sparkyization

    IN WHAT WAY???????

  • John labours under a serious delusion but his heart is sincere. I adore the sentiment of it all. He is, after all a tremendously accomplished musician, but the stark reality is that his political philosophy won't work unless EVERYBODY is on board with it. En toto ;-)

  • Boy, did this resonate big time the first time I heard it right after 9/11. Holy hell.

  • @colico14 Some buildings fell, some people died. It ws 10 years ago for gods sake, let it go already.

  • this is by far my favorite song "feel good" song of all time! thank i wish both john mellencamp & indie arie got more praise for such an inspiring & uplifting song. it is so rare that such two unique music artists like these two come together and make such beautiful music!

  • @sweetlavender1001 who's indie arie? me'shell is the singer with john in this song?
