  • thumbs up if tim brought u here

  • I only disliked this cuz they epically failed on the title. I liked the original <3

  • está musica e mtooo legallll adoro canta ela todos os dias!!!

  • WHO ARE THE TALIBAN BRAINED FOOLS WHO POST THIS SONG ON YT AND TAGGING IT AS GnR's

  • @chichiboypumpi SOME NAVY SEAL BRAINED DOUCHE THAT FAKED THE BIN LADIN COMPOUND OPERATION.

  • still a touching song, UGLY KID JOE MADE A GREAT COVER

  • i cat fine Cat stevens version

  • @richierich890 if you're referring to the original its actually harry chapin

  • @chichiboypumpi Thanks a phanoma time

  • Lovely song.

  • Ok for all you idiots that say guns and roses NEVER covered this song maybe do some research before critisizing on every youtube video that says cover by GNR I have the greatest hits cd of gnr and pretty sure cats and the cradle is on there dont believe me look it up! but this version IS Ugly kid Joe but GNR did cover this song!

  • @9havi9 Guns N' Roses has never, ever covered this song. You're apparently mistaken.

  • Why cats in the cradle?I mean :you americans kipe your cats in the baby cradle ?

  • @georgel19841 cats in the cradle is a wifes tale. It suppose to mean a bad thing. aparently your suppose to get ride of your cat when you have a baby or the cat will suck the babys breath.... apparently some crazy guy saw an actual cat suck its kid breath

  • @daphne475 on youtube?

  • @georgel19841 "The poem itself was inspired by the awkward relationship between Sandy Chapin's first husband, James Cashmore, and his father, a New York City politician. She was also inspired by a country music song she had heard on the radio.[2] Harry has also said that the song was about his father-son relationship with his son, Josh, saying that "Frankly, this song scares me to death"

  • this makes me so sad

  • pretty cool video...like the animation

  • Well, actually it is a Bon Jovi - Cover, and NOT Ugly Kid Joe.

  • this is amazingggg!!!!!!!!

  • GnR Never covered this song just look at the itunes download it is titled Ugly Kid Joe, as it is on ALL the Cats in the Cradle videos on youtube labelled as Guns and Roses Just as ALL the Cat Stevens versions are labelled as Harry Chapin. Why the misconception, simple, when you have ill-informed people informing the uninformed your left with a world of misinformed people a simple test, look for an actual moving video with the singer/band not a picture compilation.

  • my inglish is bad....VIVA GNR

  • love the animations keep up the good work

  • I'm really confused. i know cash, chapin and ugly kid joe versions. never knew there's a gnr version until today but then again many comments here say this is ugly kid joe's version and gnr never did this song but there's tons of videos with gnr in the title and there's lots of google searches of gnr cat's in the cradle lyrics! so wtf? can someone be damn frank and brutally honest here. so we can be clear one and for all

  • super song>>>>>>>>>>>>

  • my dad puts his head down whenever he hears this song. His dad left him.

  • wasnt there a differnt version of dis??? i remember from a little child... like cats in the cratles and the silver spoons the cow jumps over the moon and thats all i remember...

  • this song reminds me of how my dad is.

  • its ok

  • i actually think this is skid row...

  • Good song..

    i think i should listen some more of ugly kid joe...

    btw, the vid is CRAP

  • uhhh...this isnt guns n roses.

  • :22 emergency airdrop incoming!!

  • ahaha that's a good one

  • somebody has been playing to much call of duty

  • wow, though i do like charlie chaplin better, the way your music video flowed was amazing, you had great transitions

  • that's stupid

  • love GnR]s rendition of this but it just seems to lack the emotion of Harry Chapin when he performed it.

  • I like this song but the joe jid is fuking ugly as hell.

  • you idiot it is fucking ugly kid joe

  • This version sucks

  • this song is one of the best i've heard of the oldies

  • yes. why does does everybody think its from GnR?

  • This is the Ugly Kid Joe version and Guns N Roses had nothing to do with it. The original version is way, way better anyway.

    Glad I could clear things up for you guys.

  • By Original Version are you talking about Harry Chapin ? That as far as I know was the original version.

  • Yes the Chapin version.

  • We can see 2 moons colide and make a butt

  • ugly kid joe sings and then gnr's lead joins in. and ufj sings undertones. i just figured it out.

  • this is...guns n roses. its on their cd and everything....why are ppl fighting about this?? wow, ppl really waste their times fighting on youtube. but, then again im commenting on this event. so, that tecnically makes me as bad as the people who are fighting. but, alas i had to point ot that it IS gnr

  • Dude it's fucking Ugly Kid Joe goddamn.

  • Been awhile since i've heard this song but I still love it :)

    Truely a great song

  • WEIRD VIDEO!! SUCKISH

  • The cover of the song by Ugly Kid Joe is furthermore oftenly confused on the internet for a cover by Guns n' Roses, a band which NEVER recorded the song. This is due to an incorrect MP3 circulating on for example Limewire which contains the Ugly Kid Joe version even though the file credits it to Guns n' Roses

  • Totally agree with Cheeta1020; this is a wonderful song, and the right guy must get the credits of it; Chapin wrote the song and made it possible in the middle 70's; Ugly Kid Joe covered it in the early 90's; all my respects thou to botanicvelious, who made a very nice video of the song, he just got the name of the singer wrong....nonsense having a discussion wether if it SOUNDS LIKE AXEL, OR DOESN'T...tnks...

  • singer sounds like axl.thats it

  • this guy fucked up on the lyrics

  • who cares who covered it just watch the video

  • a great song

  • haha wtf? any idiot can hear thats not axl rose, even IF you didn't know who ugly kid joe was. and still, before posting it on youtube you would have the common sense to check because you know you're gonna get slated if you get it wrong.

    botanicvelious: what the hell were you thinking?

  • so what if he got it wrong its a good song enjoy it have you posted a vid of this song until then lay off

  • lol?! i never said it wasn't a good song, previous comments are all about how its ugly kid joe and not gnr.

    and what do you mean so what? if you made a really good song and some idiot started saying someone else made it, would you be happy? ill say whatever i like thanks

  • well, not to sound like an ass hole but there is a principal to it. guns and roses didn't make the song so giving credit to them is incorrect. Its the equivalent of plagarism or copyright infringement. Only reason Guns n Roses cant be held accountable is because they didn't claim it. People who believe limewire and don't do proper research give them false credit.

  • it is surely ugly kid joe, i been listening too his version of this song fer a very long time, i would say a number but dont wanna lie, lol, and it is very much ugly kid joe!!!

  • Old Man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were...

  • this song is so fucking good

  • Listen to Patience by GnR you would think Axl sin with this voice. And the guitar just kind of reminds me of GnR for some reason.

    And nobody really knows who Ugly Kid Joe is.

  • ok seriously get it right!

    1. GnR has never covered this song!

    2. This IS ugly kid joe! his voice is distinct!

    3. Harry chapin wrote the song

    4. Stop saying its GnR because Ugly Kid Joe could sue you for not giving him credit for his cover.

    I dont know what made everyone think GnR covered this but it doesn't matter even if they did THIS IS UGLY KID JOE NOT GNR!

  • @Cheeta1020 agreed, how anyone can think the vocals resemble anything close to axle rose is beyond me.

  • @PsychoSymantic i hear ya, i just wanna punch people in the face when they think that

  • @Cheeta1020 all correct ;)

  • @Cheeta1020 I beleive 1 is wrong but dont quote me.

    2. It clearly says that when you look at the music listed in the video. It says, Ugly Kid Joe - Cats in the Cradle.

    3. Thats true but off subject.

    4.UKJ cant sue him for not giving credit, And if you honestly think he can you need to find some common sense in the thing you call a head.

  • @Cheeta1020 Guns n' roses

  • what a sad story... poor kid

  • i thought it was buy gnr b/c i couldn't find a video of cat stevens singin it and it really pissed me off

  • class video

  • Not Guns and Roses.... its Ugly Kid Joe.... HUGE difference in voices. This guy can sing axel can't.

  • Why do people think this is by gnr?

  • good music video, tho im ademant that its not guns and roses, so you should sort that out in the description.

  • great music video man..i love it!

  • If GNR was singing this, then probably the bassist would be singing it because it doesn't sound like Axl Rose. Great song, though.

  • beautiful song

  • This is GNR's cover of Cats in the Cradle by Ugly Kid Joe

  • who covered it from cat stevens

  • no one covered it from cat stevens cause cat stevens didnt write the song!!!!! harry chapin wrote it! if anyone covers this song! they are covering it from harry chapin!

  • des lied is lustig :D

  • It's nice. I like it.

  • who the fuck care's who it is rlly by it was a rlly great animation loved it !!

  • I correct myself, Harry Chapin actually created the song, although to my memory Ugly Kid Joe has been the most recent artist that has resung the song.

    FACT:

    Guns and Roses have NEVER sung this song, so don't believe any sht. ;)

  • This is not Guns N Roses, its by Ugly Kid Joe.

  • Tbh, I thought Ugly Kid Joe was the real artist?

  • this is sooo funny

  • cool song but he sounds familiar from guns n roses

  • Come on! It doesn't even sound like Axl! It's Ugly Kid Joe, creds to them for a great cover!

  • Ok for those of you who are confused as to who sings the song, it was first sung and written by Hrry Chapin and then Johnny Cash, Ricky Skaggs, Nick Randall, Finn Kalvik, Ugly Kid Joe, and Mandy Patinkin.

  • wat about bon jovi

  • Did he do a version of it? i never herd.

  • the real artist is cat stevens

  • nope Harry Chapin. Cat did cover it though, it's just super rare.

  • its real artist was ugly kid joe!!

  • r u stupid the real artist was harry chapin so shut your mouth ugly joe kid sucks!!!!

  • whats the songs real name?

  • cat's in the cradle

  • LISTEN TO THE FACT! There are no version with Guns n roses! This is the version that everyone thinks is GNR but it's Ugly Kid Joe! The original version was written and preformed by Harry Chapin in 1974.

  • kay, first of all, it doesn't sound liike gnr...second of all Albertodragongod....what is that directed at? how is it at all like using u instead of you? because people don't recognize the actual artist? and because people like you make it ok to give incorrect credit? i'm still confused.

  • Your rather rude. What, did you rip your girlfriends pants and cut yourself? sorry i ment boyfriend

  • the point of the song is about a boy that was put off by his father 4 work but the boy still looked up 2 him, then the boy grew up and wanted to take the car and get married and the farther relized his son grew up just like him - very meaningful song luv it

  • go fuck yourself buddy and you do know that the SPELLING is NOT grammar u dumb fuck

  • "xxXISlipknotIXxx" and "monkey8me"

    LMAO! stop fighting and enjoy the vid

    ROFL!!

  • The Ugly Kid Joe cover of the song peaked at #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #7 on the UK singles chart, but is still often mistaken for a Guns N' Roses or a Skid Row cover of the song. Neither band has ever recorded this song and it has often been mislabeled as such on Gnutella and other Peer-to-peer networks.

  • how love your vid very nice..

  • that's not gnr? o.O

  • No. It's Ugly Kid Joe.

  • Yeah, that's what I thought too. :D

  • im lonely. someone msg me on msn! p

  • ugly joe kid are gay so get over it u dyke

  • Hary Chapmin MADE the song, you idiots... but who cares? Guns n Roses, a great band, did a GREAT job with this song... in tune, and i love every aspect of this song. Favorited.

  • his SON made it,,, if u see it live, his song wrote the lyrics and it made him cry.

  • Just bc another idiot put the video as Guns and Roses doesn't mean that the song is theirs, this cover version is from 1993 and the band's name is Ugly Kid Joe.

  • tahts relly good!!!!!!!especially for a cartoon man!!!!!!!WOW!!!!!!!!the songs relly good but best when its cat stevens(the creator of the song)

  • ugly kid joe

  • guns n roses...

  • No, it's ugly kid joe. People mistake for GnR all the time. Listen to the vocals. That's obviously not Axl.

  • But Ugly Kid's version sounds totally different. Plus, GnR does have a cover of the song and when you look for it, this is exactly what comes up.

  • but listen to the vocals, its not Axl, and yes the kids version sounds like this

  • yeah, this is the GnR cover version

  • THERE IS NO GNR COVER

  • I'm not going to waste words on this thread. people have already pointed out the writer and the artists that have contributed to this song. None of which include Guns and Roses.

    The poster has to be a real fucking idiot to maintain that this is GnR

  • no, dude, it's the guns n roses version...

    watch?v=XrEIhAK4WM4&feature=re­lated
