  • how to fuck do you dislike this? some people are just stupid I guess. BRAVO!

  • Right on

  • Hot dogs and hamburgers should be grilling ;)

  • All your music is Priceless and i can't begin to imagine it not being and an important part of my life.....GOD bless you....ione marie.........And your right, can't listen without singing along, thank GOD nobody can hear me singing.....lmao:)

  • @auntoni51 I meant you're right not your....can't type to save my life...lol

  • Larry...This is a favorite tv theme of mine and until the day you did this, i never heard anyone sing it as well as the tv one...Well you changed that for me, as you have with a lot of songs...Your voice flows so damn sweetly through every word...It makes me think of the mid 80's when i was a teenager and thought i had life all figured out...(what a joke...lol)..I love the original and i love your version...Your music is hard to describe..But know this.(cont'd)

  • Larry.....One of the best 70's shows and theme songs....I love when i can see an episode...It's not just that this is a good theme song, it puts you in a mood...I don't care whether it makes you think of your hometown and younger days or simply makes you feel sentimental, it is going to do something to you ...And this cover...Well, who can capture the feeling or mood of a song better than you?...Answer:NOBODY......now i have to go listen to your hawaii five-o cover...ione marie

  • welcome back...I hope Evoy will!!!...man, miss him so much!!!!...see you in the afterlife!!!!!!!!

    I love the crickets I believe in the back.. sets the mood nicely.. well done, from one guitar player to another..

    ~Cheers..

  • Luv IT !!!!!

  • great cover, great elvis costello gibson guitar!

  • Great guitar playing! Nice cover!

  • Normally, I hate covers on YouTube but your version is fantastic and sounds very much like the original. This is such a great song that is rarely heard on the radio today which is a shame. I remember watching Kotter when I was very small.

  • I'm going to make this as clear as I can... they need to put this back on TV, asap! When I was younger, maybe 10 or 11 years old, I remember that Nick at Nite had a block party summer where they played a block of shows every weeknight, and I think it was Friday, it was Welcome Back Kotter night, either 4 or 6 episodes of Kotter every Friday night, all summer. Loved it! Now all we get is stupid ass Jersey Shore or 16 and Pregnant. What a wasteland entertainment has become.

  • Nope! Couldn't help it! Thanks!

  • almost 52k hits nice! they got the cast back together for an interview the other day. epsteins voive is still hilarious :)

  • you asshole why didnt you show the cords?? sounds good :) but you are asshole with that camera work :D

  • @mrgolem33 : dude... just google the chords. Not that hard.

  • Love it. Makes me want to throw my hand in the air and say Ooh Ooh Ooh!! XOXO Heidi

  • Great job on this tune!

    Also, I will submit that this was The Best TV theme ever!

  • @smialek316 I'd have to agree

  • Love listening to your covers, great voice!

  • An old favorite for sure!!

  • sounds great on my cambridge speakers

  • Such a reflective song. Pure genius. Brings tears full of nostalgia to my eyes..gone are the 70's feelings of realism, real love for your fellow man and the sense of hope where communities came together to help each other out...the world has changed so much. Thank you John Sebastian, the song still means a great deal to me, all these years on..

  • I didn't know there was a full length version to this song.

    I still bust out singing this song at random parts during the day

  • Very good!

  • Cover? John Sebastian is the composer, goddamnit! It's his song!

  • I tell you what podine. i havent been playing very good at poker lately. but that song fixes everything for me. very soothing and calming. welcome back my poker game!!! im done posting now the song is over. check back in soon

  • Hope you are doing good podine happy new year to you

  • WOW HE SOUND SO GOOD!!!!!!!

  • @ginaluvoldies The same golden voice; I almost wouldn't recognize him, except for that voice.

  • John's original was the #58 song of '76 in Billboard. God bless!

  • this is great..can u email me the tbs??

    Always loved this song.....it just got even better.....

  • Damn fine performance

  • So Awesome, my young life was with this theme song! That is how my school and neighborhood were like. I even went to work for TV studios. Thank you !!! So sweet!

  • Bravo, Larry! :)

  • This is fucking great. Love it

  • Fantastic again as usual!

  • GREAT as usual...but what's with the B&W? Color TV was available back then, remember? LOL ;)

  • I woke up to Miley Cirus this morning.. : (

    Now I'll be singing this song all day instead...Thanx Larry! *****

  • I love this - nostalgic, warm and comforting.  You put your heart and soul into all of your music...it shows, and it shines.

  • Kotter was one of my favorite shows as a kid! great job on this Larry!

  • I am in my upper 50's, and I have been, for several years, so nostalgic for the 70's. The times weren't really all that good - Viet Nam, Nixon, prison riots - but I loved music like this and I loved my 20's.

  • What an awesome triple treat today!

    (I keep trying to post on the Ziggy Stardust vid, but gootube is having "issues" again.)

    Definitely one of my favorite theme songs. And lovin' the critter chorus singing backup, too.

  • Larry...HELL YA!!!!.....just like eman, i loved this show...and with the black and white and the subtleness in your voice, you've captured that 70's vibe, just like you did with your Mary Tyler Moore one.....Im gonna go listen to partridge family and one day at a time theme.....Thanks for the smile you brought me:)......ione marie

  • Oh what have l missed....please, Larry you MUST bring back the MTM and Patridge Family themes.....ahhhh.....this is SOOOoooo great!!!!! Pretty pleassssse!!!!!! ...for those of us that missed them the first time around !!!

  • Nice Larry...brings me back to 1975-1976 watching Kotter every Thursday night at 0800 on ABC...Love the show and I love your version of it!!!

  • was wondering when you would get around to this song... nicely done..
