  • EC was the man. Good looking, talented, young. He could've been as big as Johnny Cash had he lived. God rest his soul. Minnesota native forever into eternity.

  • omg everyone is clapping so off!!!!

  • coll RnR

  • que os follen

  • Holy crap! I've been looking for this FOREVER - and I'm not exaggerating, I saw this last time when I was...probably not even daycare yet - and all I could remember was the guitar riff, and for some reason, the moving seats.

  • @MrRobinPresley NO MANCHES

  • @MultiBabaloo y por mucho

  • @MrRobinPresley Estas mal

  • @MultiBabaloo tu estas peor

  • chewing gums was cool

  • .... everybody in the audiance is chewing something lolz

    

  • our grandparent's Music TeleVision

  • I bet they're all chewing gum because whatever show this was taken from was sponsored by a chewing gum company like Wrigley's or Bazooka. They'd give out the product to the studio audience. Watch videos of a show called the Magic Clown, sponsored by Bonomo's Turkish Taffy. The kids are chewing away at their Bonomo's for the whole show.

  • Todos mascan chicle 1:08

  • I love his singing so good sad he died so young.

  • Holy Crapola! Back when there was music shown on MTV and didnt suck!

  • check eddie going for it, brilliant, love mr cochran

  • i would have loved to be one of em kids with my slick back hair, bopping away to the music. WHAT AN ERA <3

  • This is my favorite song of Eddie's. Thanks for sharing it with us.

  • The James Dean of the music. A genius...

  • wow! I wish MTV could play Eddie today. Too bad they are abunch of sell outs!

  • @neilsoiland21 why are they sellouts? because they play music that is relevant today? this music is brilliant, but to say that MTV are "sell outs" because they moved with the times is like criticizing the army's of today for not using muskets.

  • Eddie, Buddy, Gene....WOW - thrilling music and performances to this day. My birth time is more in line with the British Invasion but boy, I sure LOVE THIS STUFF - these were absolute heroes to the Beatles, Dave Clark Five, Kinks, Animals, etc.

  • tres tres bon

  • tres tres bon 

  • along with buddy holly Eddie died so young they changed music forever its so tragic they were taken so early long live there iconic music listhen to em every day you rocked MR eddie Cochran!

  • Left us too early

  • is there anybody not chewing gum?

  • The TV set stage, that's genius!

  • Just imagine the additional great music this guy, Buddy Holly,and Ritchie Valens would have put out if they had lived longer..

  • Music on MTV?!?! I remember this idea when I was a little kid hahahha

  • THE GUY AT 1:18 WINKED !!!!

    xD

  • @ARKIEX Back when it was actually cool to do that :(

  • @Manbeast222

    I wish i was born then !

  • @ARKIEX Me too, sometimes I think I was born in the wrong era...I feel you.

  • C'mon Everybody let's chew gum tonight.

  • Gone toooo soon Eddie <3

  • playback?

  • @JohnnyCash1Fan1 of course most of the American banstand were recorded in playback

  • @The170460 ok, thanks

  • who cares

  • In those days the audience chewed gum today the audience takes drugs, I blame the so called music they listen to.

  • @atlast17

    In the 60s and 70s most of the music was inspired by drugs, sure. And that coincided with the peace 'craze'... Strange coincidence, isn't it? Give me that music over today's drivel any day.

    But now the only 'drug' inspiring music is money. That is why it's so unimaginative and vulgar. Don't be under any false impressions about drugs and music. The best music came from drug experiences and that is a fact.

  • Mafia II! 

  • Eddie would have been 72 today! He died the day after my 4th birthday in 1960. Twenty years later, I'd become a songwriter, and co-wrote songs with Sharon, Eddie's girlfriend, who co-wrote "Somethin' Else with Eddie. Twenty years later, Sharon would die.

    Ya gotta know they're together!

    Happy Birthday Eddie!

  • being able to clap should be a requisite for being in the audience!

  • can you imagine seeing yourself as one of those kids in the audience! LOVE THE KID WINKING AT 1:17!!!

    waaaaaaahhhhhhh!

  • some people are clapping like: "wtf im clapping for anyways" XD

  • Awesome. Love the way the audience CAN'T clap in time but he can chew gum in unison!

  • they're all chewing gum. no wonder there's so many seniors with dentures

  • by many songs i ever heard except the beatles,cliff richard,bill haley, the beach boys, and billy withers, eddie cochran was a really excellent rock n' roller although the recorder input still really beast and we all can't heard this song not so clear,but i really like this song!

  • Legendary. He died way too young. :/

  • Rock´n´Roll

  • The most enjoyable music of all time ! Eddie rocks for ever !

  • This is music folks.

    R.I.P. Eddy

  • Le top du top qui n'a jamais été inégalé !!!!!

  • @PONYBOY430 die nigger

  • @syrrrrrrl "charming"!!

  • @ellycat hehe y0^^

  • There's two spanish versions of this song.

    The first: "Aviéntense todos" By Los Locos del Ritmo.

    The Second was ¡Qué noche! By Los camisas Negras. (The lead singer was César Roel, better known as César Costa)

    They're good, but Eddie's original is the best.

  • look at eddie go boy lol

  • Chewing gum & Eddie

  • There's a lot of winking going on in this video and I like it! 1:17 & 1:30

  • Great.......love that.

  • amazing song..........

  • I believe this is on American Bandstand back in Philly.....Beechnut Gum was their sponser,...as everyone is chewing!...Great Advertisement back then!!!....Awesome song...that Kicks Butt!!!

  • He leaves Elvis the so called King standing.This man had talent.

  • Great record! Who is the cunt at the beginning? :-)

  • One of the greatest singers of early rock and roll. Even Elvis said that he would have been the best. Still, we have his wonderful music to listen to 50 years later. Loved Eddie Cochran's music.

  • he was way before his time he was definetly one very cool dude

  • Along with Buddy Holly & Ritchie Valens, Eddie Cochran was another great pioneer of rock & roll who died young (all three were close friends). Isn't it so ironic & sad that a little over a year after recording the song "Three Stars" in tribute to The Day The Music Died, Eddie was gone himself?

    Feb. 3, 1959 & April 17, 1960 were (& are) two of the most tragic days in rock & roll history.

  • Ich dachte Mtv laesst keine ordentliche Musik zu?

  • Ugly face!? Wonder where you got your opinion about facial features? He was cool, was an angelic punk, sorta, personified the '50s rnroll aka the real deal. He really had the looks. Some called him the blonde Elvis. Nuff said. ALSO, great musicanship, performance, gtr player BIG time, charisma, influential, humor, versatile and only 21 and gone. Gimme some more examples of a person having that career being so young. And it SPELLS School, NOT Scholl, hammerhead!

  • @gangerollo He was one of the all time greats of early rock and roll that was taken away too early. You are right about him; just watch this video and see how he reacted to the audience. The wink @1:31, the interaction with the fans and the way he played that guitar. You are also right about the comment, he was the blonde Elvis. More importantly, he was the great Eddie Cochran!

  • Eddie is VERY cute. Absolutely he's not ugly..

  • @Girl80sHairMetal

    I heard that! They don't make men looking that good anymore!

  • woah, music on mtv?

  • Yeah I agree. I get sick and tired of that Rap crap. Rap is not even music. That's why when I was 14 (back in 1993) I pickup the Guitar because it's real music and it moves me.

  • @GutiarAce it's excellent ....

  • @GutiarAce  it's bestial....

  • @GutiarAce That's what I was thinking when I first saw this!

  • rather slim pickins' in the groupie department

  • What the hell are those damm kids listing too!!!????

    Thanks, Dad

  • anybody else notice about 75% of the audience was chewing gum? Did Wrigleys sponsor this? Lol.....

  • YES!!!

  • ...or some other chewing gum company. Seriously, you think they didn't use ad's at that time or...what?

  • @mefaulstich It was sponsored by a gum company.. I think it was something like Beechnut gum...

  • LMAO, the audience's awkward clapping is hilarious XD

    But Eddie is AMAZING. I'm a teen, and I have no idea why nobody actually thinks of these brilliant people anymore >.>

    But then again, I am a music student...

    EDDIE IS GOD.

    Plus, this was when MTV must've been actually GOOD. Sadly I don't remember it xD

  • I guess gum must have been a big thing in those days - everyone's chewin!

  • Usually diff. gum companies were the TV sponsers, and they gave all of the audience packs when they came into the studio for the shoot. I had many packs when I use to go to the shoots......"Those were the Good Ol Days"

  • That TV is very advanced technology for the fifties. I didn't think they invented staircases for television sets till the 70's.

  • Simple, but brilliant music.

    And everybody is loving every second of it.

    As it should be.

  • god, isn't chewing gum awful

  • Is that one of the Baldwin brothers at 1:13?

  • This is so Great!

  • he´s soo mutch better then elvis but buddy holly is the king that's it!!!!!!!! elvis sucks!

  • Eddie Munster at 1:18 and did he really wink at the camera?

  • he likes to be elvis

  • the king

  • no fuckin' way. Eddie wrote it and owned it!!!

  • sid vicious? Is he still dead?

  • get serious mate, sid was a twat. him in the pistols was a conceptual piece by mclaren, but he was crap

  • _|_ sid rulz

  • richard hell does, as matlock and hanley

    sid wanted to be a star, never got the point

  • Rock n roll will always be, and so will Eddie Cochran. Great.

  • This is from Dick Clark's Saturday night show sponsored by Beechnut Gum. I'm sure the audience was given free gum as they came in. Beechnut's slogan was "flavorific." That's what the buttons saying "IFIC" refers to. LOVE THE KID WINKING AT 1:20 ALSO!!!

    whooooooaaaaaahhhhhhhh!

  • This was a huge party hit when I was in high school in the early 1960s. I played it once at my house during an all-girls slumber party and my dad reprimanded me the following day and told me not to bring "that kind of music" into his house. So, I gave the record to a friend.

    I am amazed to see how sedate and clean-cut (and THIN) we used to be way, way, way back then. We enjoyed music, dancing, and parties without go ballistic and trashing the place.

  • Love the cheeky kid wink at 1:20

  • Fantastic. He was super cool wasn't he? As regards the audience's bubble gum, i wonder if it was a technique to keep the noise down. A tad harder to scream etc with a mouthful of gum.

  • hahahahahaha... all audience chewing gum... hahahahaha...

  • xD hahaha

  • this is summer music!!!!!!

  • great

    Great

    GReat

    GREat

  • wow.... the audience is stuck between beats '1 and 3' and '2 and 4' haha they dont know what to pick!

  • awesome awesome song well go down in history for centurys to come i prefer led zeppelins version but this is of course amazing

  • your soooo idiotic! lol

  • Eddie Cochran was a man of Elvis Presley...Elvis taught from Eddie

  • eddie cochran, the real KING!!!!

    R.I.P. eddie, see u in heaven...

  • RIP Eddie. Would have been his 70th birthday today. Loved this the first song I remember as a kid (Im 34 now)Just a note to those Eddie V Elvis debaters, stop comparing them two totally different artists. Eddie never saw himself as a commercial artist like Elvis, Eddie was a musician, session artist and song writer, Elvis a pure icon. Thank god for both.

  • completely right. Eddie was just a musician who had the chance to record under his own name. At the beginning of his carrier he was just a recording sessions guitarist. His carreer starting with his appareance in the Girl Can't Help it movie. At this time he hadn't any record contract. he was sign by Liberty records after the movie comin' out.

  • what the fuck are you talking about ? elvis ? do you think every damn rocknroll thing had to do with elvis ? without johnny burnette there will be no elvis.

    eddie was a cool kid with an extrem good guitar play (what about elvis' guitar play?lol) , not an elvis copy.

    if you say that next to me I will punch you in the face.

    eddie & gene , true rock n roll

  • Was that a reply to my comment? If it was, you should choose "reply".

    Okay, maybye not. But I still want you to punch me in my face. Seems pretty comfortable.. Go on, just do it. I'm right here.

  • eddie rocks like anyone!!.. elvis, piss of! XD

  • im 20 and i will love it till i die

  • Eddie Cochran Rocks!!!

  • what are they all chewing

  • Tobacco. Times have truly changed.

  • Eddie Rocks!!!

  • I love that T.V. set stage, too cool man.

  • Auhhhhhh........ Rock and Roll

  • lol am 31 and like this song:)

  • i am 16 and i love it!!! ;)

  • What's so special with being 31 and like this song? I am 14 years old and I really LOVE 50's music. The differense between me and other teenagers (the most of'em), is that I don't like ANY of the music that's released today. I stay with the 50's.

  • Great song, and I love Eddie Cochran!

    But maybe the best part about this video is that EVERYONE is chewing gum. hilarious!

  • the classic

  • From what television show is this ? Did Eddie Cohcran perform "Sumertime Blues on the same show ? If so can someone please post it ? thanks !

  • go fuck your mother incestbitch

  • Hey fool, without Eddie, THERE IS NO Sid version. Sid and the Sex Pistols loved Eddie, you moron.

  • Without Elvis there would not be any COCHRAN. Maybye a Cochran, but not the Cochran we all know.

    Sids version IS better, even if Eddie had the original and the pistols and sid loved Eddie Cochran. Sid did a better "Something else" too, and all of the other oldies he did better. I AM an oldies music fan, believe me, but a Sid fan too.

  • You miss the point. I'm not saying one is better than the other. I am sure Sid et al did not think Eddie was "shit". If Sid's version is better then he did respect to the original and added his own style to it. If you like Sid's version better, good for you but that doesn't mean the original which inspired Sid's version is "shit" Get it?

  • Now you miss the point. I really don't say Cochrans version is Shit. I enjoy listening to Eddie Cochrans versions too, but I think the way Sid did it, was better. I'm sure Sid Vicious was a fan of Eddie Cochran, so he liked his songs, and sang them in his way.

  • Fair enough, but you must have missed the original post I was responding to that said Cochran was shit and Sid rules. It seemed you agreed with that point. Moving forward.

    What is it about Sid's version that you like better? I love both version but don't consider one necessarily better, just a great song done in different styles. Just curious.

  • No no, I didn't see that. Eddie Cochran is no way shit. He's a very good musician.

    What I like about Sid version? I don't know.. I'm a bigger fan of him actully, and that makes actully a lot of sense to me. His voice.. I'm no fan of punk actully, but Sids songs is just awesome. (I'm actully not sure if Sid actully sang that song.. Doesn't sounds like he did)

  • idiot...this is music... sids was shit...punk was just an excuse for shyt music to get played

  • Fuck you ( For calling me an idiot )! I like Sid, and I KNOW what real music is. If you take a look at my channel, you'll see what I think is real music.

  • hey robin i apologise for the comment....thought you was saying eddie sucked...sorry bro

  • Nothing happened :)

  • Everybody imitated Elvis.

    And so was cochran.

  • Melkiemelkie, not so fast. Eddie may have imitated Elvis' style, but Eddie wrote this song and recorded it FIRST. Elvis, who actually wrote very few songs, did a re-make of Eddie's song.

    C'mon Everybody. C'mon Melkiemelkie. Everybody is influenced (or imitates) someone else before developing their own style.

  • Elvis did a re-make of C'MON EVERYBODY???????

    I am very very sure he did NOT.

    He never sang that song!!!!! The C'MON EVERYBODY he sang in the picture VIVA LAS VEGAS was another song.

    Elvis never sang a song of eddie.

  • this rocks!!

  • The GREATEST!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic!

  • Eddie is ever the best for me!

  • Elvis was the King, but Eddie was the prince! Who knows howgood Eddie could have been if he lived until he was 42?! Eddie was and always will be the greatest guitarist in rock n roll. What a guy!

  • BRILLIANT , yeah , FIVE STARS INDEED !!

  • This is the KING

  • I like this song. There is lots of covers, like sid vicious - C'mon everybody, and i like it best. :D

  • rock on eddie

  • haha thats not gum there chewing. its tobacco

  • A great loss to rock n roll music ..fantastic to see Eddie..thanks for the posting..my son who is only 16 thinks Eddie Cochran is the greatest!!

  • Eddie Cochran was a true legend! Fantastic this song !!!!!!!!!!

  • ooo-whee do it one more time for me
