  • These eyes is a great song 4 all of u who say otherwise.

  • I'm British, but finding some surprising comments on here from more local people! I discovered this band from American Beauty with Kevin Spacey rockin to American Woman, and then No Sugar Tonight on My Name Is Earl. Both of these triggered the purchase of the band's Ultimate Collection, and I haven't regretted it. Also listening to These Eyes and can't see the problem gregd777, but each to their own (though the speed sounds a bit off)! Thanks for posting this great song anyway

  • Oh please. Keep thinking what you will.

  • The Guess Who...Canada's gift to the world, No..wait or was it Rush?

  • @Rimshot247 it was the Guess Who for me.

  • @Sandbagger300 They're both great!..although Rush is still hard at it with original members....almost 40 years under their belt, I think they're going to like this kind of work =)

  • The Guess Who are the greatest thing to come out of Canada in the 1960s. Always made amazing sounds!

  • This song (the beginning) reminds me alot of Just Like Starting Over by Mr. Lennon

  • thumbs up if your listening to this cause your parents made you

  • what cd is this off of?

  • @digiornoisgood Canned Wheat (originally released in 1969)

  • I play the "Guess Who's" Greatest Hits at least two times a day.

    This song is so true.

    Now the best years, have come and gone.

  • @gregd777: Are you kidding me? These Eyes is one of the best songs they have. You must be associating it with a past love. :-)

  • often we make mistakes. dont really think of down the road.Perhaps we should slow down and remember what we have learned from history.

  • what a great song !!! the lyrics are a bit haunting , wonder if this was based on a real life relationship ? i google'd this song and it said they wrote this in 10 minutes ???? can that really be true ?? if so, incredible !

  • Burton Cummings was just a genius. Great song, great harmony. Thanks for posting.

  • This song is so amazing that i didnt  notice that the video what a piece of shit.

  • Sounds like "Just like starting over" By John Lennon.... good song though!

  • @LordNicoDiAngelo I hope you're not implying that THIS is the knock-off...

  • @zodiac1968 LOL No, I'm just pointing it out, thats all :)

  • una música muy buena en mi opinión el mejor

    música minimalista de su canal

  • i see why they call you psycho...cowboy...only a moron believes this economic nosedive was Obama's fault

  • @TheIrishlad12 agreed

  • @TheIrishlad12 haha you're a clueless idiot

  • @TheIrishlad12 Another name calling liberal.

  • @TheIrishlad12 Got news for you. Obama's days are numbered. The evil, racist, sexist, homophobic Tea Party is taking over. We're going to get the government out of our lives as much as possible. That's probably very frightening to you. Why not go back to Ireland and enjoy your socialism.

  • @MrTrashcan1 Boy do you have a 'secret' internet name that shows what you are. This is a place for music lovers, Mr.Trashy, not politics or tea parties. You want a tea party ?? Go watch Tom Petty's "Don't Come Around Here No More" .... there's a freaky video with a hidden truth about tea parties. Scary, too. Like the tea party. The Guess Who, a Canadian band that was SUPER..and you have to bash the President of the US on their song ?? We are all "Laughing" at you.

  • THE GUESS WHO ARE AMAZING!!!!

  • I played this to some jerk at 3 in the morning was a little drunk , he said i was obsessed with you BC. then hung up on me , the nerve .......

  • @ PsychoCowboy Just make sure you're there to share the land when he gives it away.

  • @therealjoebloggs I see what you did there sir.

  • Obama took America by surprise. He took away everything we had. He put the hurt on America and now he's laughing!

  • @PyschoCowboy What the hell did u have???? Must not have been much!!!!

  • @PyschoCowboy meh...he's just a corporate drone. if u wanna know what obama is really about look at whos around him goldman sachs cronies, monsanto cronies etc. we have to be the change not some fake leader regardless of who it is.

  • Freaking awesome song. The Guess Who don't have a bad song!

  • I just saw the Guess who live yesterday. they played this song and several others and i loved it. absolutly amazing band even if its only 2 of the original members left!

  • this pretty much reminds me of my life... i loved my bestfriend and she never felt the same way.. then all of a sudden she loves me back. then she leaves me for someone else... just shocked.

  • Please tell me who the idiotic ten people are who don't like this!

  • Some1 cant make up there mind on comments. no more

  • My ex always knows what to put on youtube. Always my favorites!

  • My favorite song by them

  • Where has the time gone?

  • @pieword :(

  • Sounds like something the Little River Band would record. Maybe this song was the inspiration for LRB's "Cool Change" hit.

  • 10 People had everything taken away from them and the hurt put on them.

  • Coolest Slow Dancing Songs Late 60s(1969)

  • 10 Persons Not Laughing 

  • 10 people lost the game. (I same person as PB2Man)

  • These eyes is a good song, it just might be over-played and good songs like this aren't recognized and appreciated

  • i remember when i was 5 and my dad brought me a home a The Guess Who CD and i played it from my PS1 and i loved it, i learned all the words to this and These Eyes at 5.

  • 10 people are crying

  • 10 people lost the game

  • 1:40 orgasmic

  • This is one of the many great songs by the Guess Who

  • I LOVE "These Eyes"  . . . WHAT DO YOU NOT LIKE ABOUT IT gregd777???

  • YOU also took ME by surprise!!

    Sorry!

    The BEST YEARS are gone!!

  • @ gregd777 why don't you like "these eyes"? I hope it's not because the song is too commercialized because in my opinion it is but it is still a very nice song

  • awesome song........love it!!!!!!!!!!!

  • great song from my favorite band ever

  • You don't like "These Eyes"?

    Ah,well.....c'est la vie!

  • What a great song !! Never heard it before , but loved "No Time" even though it seemed i was the only one over here in England who did !! Thanks for sharing this wonderful track.

  • Burton Rules!!

  • 1 of the best songs of all times !!! bar none

  • We played this at my uncle's funeral, good song.

  • Love Burton Cummings voice - it sounds crystal clear and you can understand every word he sings!

  • The great Burton Cummings...What a voice! Anything called a Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame that doesn't include The Guess Who, is a travesty. These guys are one of the most underrated bands of all time. And the stuff they did after this was even better! They weren't fully appreciated, even back then, except in Canada, of course! Check out Road Food, Rockin', Artificial Paradise, So Long Bannatyne, #10, etc., etc....

  • @actormanic Yeah, might as well forget many great worthy bands making it into RRHOF unless they have a twisted liberal agenda. If it was strictly about the music, Jeff Lynne and ELO would be in also!!!

  • Just listen & feel it!

  • stop the B word...omg its driving me nuts...LOL!

  • They make classic collections,but they never get the credit deserved among rock greats

  • Burton Cummings has one hell of a voice. I loved this group in it's hayday and the music is still the best. Reminds me of my youth, big time. I have their greatest hits and the music never fails to impress.

  • Burton Cummins ROCKS! The Guess Who has never been the same without him. He defines the Guess Who

  • Burton cumming so underrated, one of the very best, listen to the voice !

    He stole the show at Ringo's all star reunion, no surprises there

  • Burton Cummings just had a knack for sad songs: These Eyes, Laughing, Undun, American Woman, etc., and his solo Stand Tall.

  • Even after 40 (!) years,I never get tired of this song. Great images. Thanks.

  • @Crossbow0106

    I grew up with the Beatles, the stones, The dave Clark 5 and the GUESS WHO. I knew all the words. I saw them perform in my home town and I think the Guess Who should forever be the band that set the high standards of great music. Not for just--then, but for NOW. How can anyone make-out in a car without listening to the Guess Who?

  • Forgot how much I loved these guys!

  • Oh my god, what ancient phatos...

  • im askin santa for all there cds and im gonna find a couple of V records

  • The Guess Who Vs The Who. The Guess Who Wins

  • @glamourboy89 Stop it! LOL!!

  • bachman formed this group and was one of the only artists to form too very successful bands the other as yu no bto

  • Genius...

  • Made before bands had too much sugar in their coffee, got all hyper and sang at a hundred miles an hour. Seriously, these old songs take you on a nice, slow, mellow journey, like being in a canoe on the river, with no rapids in sight. Just peaceful sailing.

  • I feel like I should be stoned right now

  • @november6ixth dont we all?

  • I play this real load when my lady is screaming at me.

  • This song is terribly underrated. Wonderful by far.

  • Has very soulful voice another band that shhould be in the hall of fame

  • 1:19 ...this line ALWAYS makes me loose the Game

  • love it. it made me late for school the other day, lol. i couldnt get out of the car while it was playing!!!

  • Love this song

  • ty greg for the songs...Guess who rules...man im old lol

  • one of the best guess who songs never again will i forget this song

  • I LOST THE GAME GOD DAMN IT

  • Back In The 60s an 70 it was just endless wish i coulda Been there

  • The Guess Who had many Great songs and this is definitely one of them!

  • Why can't you stand These Eyes?

  • This is but one of the fabulous Guess Who songs that I just ADORE. Fabulous. Timeless. Wonderful.

  • Burton Cummings is a fantastic singer. The voice in Rock. Period

  • omgggggggggggggggggggggggg i can relate!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • You should post Share The Land on here. There are no videos of the original album version.

    Thanks.

  • Yeah there are, I just found one yesterday. I think it waas just put on because there used to not be.

  • calalilygirl this came out in july 1969

  • Canadian Rock is simply the best, classic genre of classic rock, up there with the Brits and Americans, if not better! Edward Bear another great!

  • Very underrated group. Fabulous talent and music

  • @kensmom33 Me too....it made it all the better.

  • Howdy folks. This song has always had a special meaning to me. It makes me think of that very special Ali. Mahalo for the groovey posting for I'm sure everyone has thier own special Ali.

  • Love the Guess who! Classic song!

    For those of you who love old AM Radio favorites...please stop in to my channel, "KevsAMRADIO" and slip back into the bygone days of the 70's when you were down the shore on the beach...or poolside..or working with the AM radio hits playing in the backround. I have more than 375 AM hits in my favorites for you to listen to....and my playlists to date have 299 AM hits. So...step in and enjoy connecting to your memories of people, places and bygone experiences.

  • Definitely one of the greatest songs of The Guess Who

  • Honest, amazing song.

  • what happened to the music?

  • I love this! I was a small child in the '60's,and I remember about this time my mother got me a transistor radio,and I remember listening to all the hip,new songs of the time!!!

  • A+ Great song and Video

  • fantastic song and band

    what about these eyes don't you like?

  • Time goes slowly,,yet carries on,,now the best years have come and gone,,it took me by surprise,,I wish I'd realized,,I could be laughing................

  • the fish was trippy lol great song love the guess who!

  • fking great,the intro roxs hard

  • Good song and these eyes is awesome too the beat and the lyrics.

  • Comment removed

  • Great song. Downright bizarre video.

  • Even though Randy Bachman left the group, Burton Cummins still kept it together. I love this group it brings back good memories....

  • @gustavrea yea but the songwriting magic they had together vanished

  • @PAULOcbi Have you listened to the albums they did after Bachman left? Songs like Hand Me Down World, Glamour Boy, Those Show Biz Shoes, Share the Land, etc., etc.,....They got even better, even if the songs weren't all big hits. And now that Cummings and Bachman have teamed up again, they can't use the name because Jim Kale owns it, and has his own "version" of the band. The Guess Who without Burton Cummings is like Jethro Tull without Ian Anderson.

  • @actormanic yea but the songwriting magic they had together vanished,did I stutter ??? or are you a pedantic arsepick??

  • @PAULOcbi No, you didn't stutter. I'm just pointing out that the songwriting continued to be great, even without Bachman. If you want to turn this into a battle of personal insults, I'm not interested. You were reacting to someone else's comment. What, nobody is allowed to react to yours? At least 50% of the comments you see here on YouTube can be described as being "pedantic arsepicking." Have a great day.

  • @PAULOcbi

    idiot

  • @gustavrea Kurt Winter, an often forgotten member of The Guess Who, proved to be a valuable replacement for Bachman, he wrote or co-wrote these charting songs:

    Hand Me Down World, Bus Rider, Hang on to Your Life, Rain Dance, Life in the Bloodstream, Heartbroken Bopper, and Runnin' Back to Saskatoon; and along with Burton kept it going for another 5+ years.

  • @burnabybrent You are so right! Kurt Winter was such an asset to the band! RIP Kurt.....

  • These Eyes Is An Amazing Song!

    Other than That I agree With You.

  • i couldnt agree more ;) these eyes is a bit slow but good :D

  • Time goes slowly,it carrie's on,,have the best years come and gone? It took me by surprize, I did'nt realize, I could be laughing.......Its took away everything I had,,,It put the hurt on me,,,now its too late I've gone too far, I've lost the sun,,,I've come undun.........

  • I Hope No Cover Bands Are Made Because They Will Never Be The Guess Who!!

  • I've only heard this song a few times in my life and only now do I know the title. GREAT song.

  • Wow---this video is great!

    Thank you.

  • I love this song. I have lived this song. I am sure many of us have. Why don't hear music like this any longer? The melody and the lyrics tell the story. I miss such songs. Thank God for YouTube and to those of you who post them so I can hear them again.  Thank you so much! :=)

  • i like the slow zoom on the smiling pigs pure class

  • what a superb song . maybe could lose the "put the hurt on me" but ha ha ha where you laughin at me is perfect.

  • I laughed when I read this comment because that line made wince while I was listening to it! An unfortunate weak moment in an otherwise great song.

  • ha ha ha ha ha ha.  Sure still a great song.

  • few years ahead of their time i thank, great band great song!!

  • I can't imagine anyone else singing this song

  • Yeah Burton cummings voice is hard to be beat, can sing soft flow songs and those ones that make you want to get up and dance!

  • @Syzygy60 what about JustinBieber or Bono,or that retard from Coldplay,bunch o` money grubbin` imposters!

  • @PAULOcbi WTF! What does Bieber, Bono or Chris Martin have to do with this?? And how moronic to #1 bring them up on something so UNRELATED and #2 Bieber shouldnt be mentioned anywhere NEAR Chris Martin who is oh suuch a "money grubbing impostor" since the band literally sold the shirts off their backs & many of their guitars for charity.

    & STOP bringing up justin bieber.... you haters who bring him up & blame his fans 4 the downrave on EVERY VID are as BAD AS THE FANS!

    STFU and ENJOY THE SONG!

  • @im8teennow you dont like Bieber??STFU ?? You like Bieber.What the hell are you doin mentioning Bieber on this video for??STFU I know you dig the Bieber,now run along,faggot.if I want comeback I`ll scrape it off ur chin.

  • @PAULOcbi your an idiot. YOU brought it up first dumbass. And no I dont, but "people" like you bringing it up on unrelated videos are worse than Bieber fans. I do not want to read that kind of shit where I shouldnt have to. It was funny the first few times. But now on EVERY video SOME CUNT has to mention it.

    Your only making it worse you minge.

  • @im8teennow I rather read some guy puttin down Bieber than the twats like you cruisin` YouTube for comments that rub them the wrong way to vent on.You dont make any comment about the Guess Who you only comment about other peoples comments.Your the YouTube referee or umpire?? piss off

  • @im8teennow well see now thats because your full of hate. Which is sad. And I dont see why you dont get that discussing him makes it worse since it is giving him more attention. And I DID comment on the Guess Who, i like them, which is why its annoying to hear about Bieber when Im trying to enjoy classics like this!

    AND LOLZ at your "spelling" and yet calling Me a twat.

    That really says it all.

  • @im8teennow ZOMG stfu and listen to the song

  • @Syzygy60 i heard them in concert 3 days ago. hes not the same, but still great

  • we will never have rock like it was when I was in my teens and 20s. Some is good now but no comparison

  • Greatest Canadian band of all time!!!

  • Great Memories of the 70s :)

  • @sick70s i think this may have been 60's---very late 60's
