  • The original version by Thunderclap Newman had the line "Hand out the arms and ammo, we going to bust our way through here." That line is missing in this version and Tom Petty's.

  • AWESOME cover....

  • do you have tabs

  • Great job guys. Keep at it. You have a good sound and this is still a relevant song to sing. Way to protest. It's up to your generation to keep that spirit of peace alive.

  • thank you too boys, a really good cover that did justice to the original

  • Thanks guys, I enjoyed this. I'm glad that there are folks out there who are keeping the spirit alive. I was a kid when this was released and I still remember the first time that I heard it. A fine time for music.

  • iheartldn...you're a dickhead.

  • i'm a dickhead for having an opinion? it's constructive criticism. he can't sing, if the band wants to progress it needs to audition for a real vocalist.

  • iheartldn

    i think  that many "real" vocalists, would find it difficult to sing as high as this song demands, even if they were good ones. the singing drummer of TN wasn't such a great singer, in my opinion. he just had a very "toppy" voice and could sing this the way he did. but the lad who sings it here, manages alright to get it through, inspite of the "technical" difficulties and i think that he can do even better.

  • whoever you are, you are awsome! these guys late back in the sixties or seventies didn't make it better! the singer man he is absolutely great!! man i wish i could sing this stuff like you do!

  • the vocals are absolutely dreadful. find yourself a real vocalist asap. the lead singer could still do backing though.
