  • These are anti-freedom, socialistic minded people who have a lot of time on their hands, and blame the government and banks for not providing all of their needs.

    Listen to one the great men of peace, love, and freedom when he says "if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow".

    Rethink this philosophy of blaming the rich.Legal advantages over the "99%" can only be gotten from the state, which has a legal monopoly on the use of force.

  • Revolution is not an event it is a process.

  • God Bless the 60's....Charles Town

  • I can has moar Occupy?

  • @texman00 it is only muddled by those that aren't active in it or don't actually take the time to talk to people that are. Your judgements are based off of television news therefor your conclusion is irrelevant. The message is poorly defined because of so many people saying false shit about it. Only those who care enough to learn the truth will actually get the truth.

  • The occupy message is muddled and poorly defined and to put a classic Beatles song with a focused message and try and link it to your "cause" is flimsy at best and cheapens the spirit of the tune.

  • Well done gents, someday these protests will be in history books, definitely exciting times we live in, why with all this bullshit going down throughout the world right now and such. I believe in this day in age all it would take for America to go under is the slightest loss, but we'll be ready

    This revolution is already different from others fought in the past, because the worlds much different, and more is at stake than ever

    Can we fight this? I believe we can win this, but at what loss?

  • Best Montage of Occupy Ever! Makes me want to protest 24/7, 365 (366, it's a leap year).

  • The thing about music is that it can be relevant to any time period. This song fits perfectly. To those that say it doesn't or that the 99% have no clue. Perhaps you should get your head out of your respective asses and look around. Have a great day! A Revolution has begun.

  • @nightlyt The revolution's over, where were you?

  • @Evenwas616 It is just beginning. Remember, if you aren't part of the solution you are the problem.

  • @nightlyt You know, that's kinda funny, many famous leader have said that same speech you have just said before they killed at least a million people.

  • @nightlyt Still, the numbers of the Occupy Wall streeters has diminished, there were tens of thousands or maybe even a hundred thousand, but now you guys barely make a few thousand in Wall Street and diminishing. I don't even see too many new videos on youtube or anywhere anymore about how it's going, they count failures as successes in which is like what nazi Germany did to it's people by propaganda, but here... they just got stupid, there's more than just the People's media in New York.

  • @nightlyt I'm sorry that i'm going to look like i'm rubbing in the quote but I want you to understand why it's bad, you can relate this to nazi Germany when Hitler said this about the Jews, you can relate this about Pol Pot in Cambodia before he killed a few million of his own people because they were smart or rich or etc., you can relate this to even Rick Perry on Gays.

  • This is awesome. I'm a 6th grader from Kansas City doing a report on Occupy. My father is a small business liberal caterer who supports the 99%, but works too much to get out there and march. This song fits amazingly with Occupy, and the pictures are fantastic. KEEP OCCUPYING EVERYWHERE!!

  • @magedogtag why don't you listen to the song a little closer, avoid the obvious words said and look beyond that to its true meaning like you should with every Beatles songs. Then come back and revise your comment, if you somehow cant manage to make out the true meaning of the song, then please just don't come back and comment. I suppose your the type that thinks yellow submarine is about a yellow submarine.

  • is it just me or did all the "occupiers" chose an anti revolution song as their theme? i bet they don't even know it is. LOL

  • @magedogtag Is it me or do you not know what the song is about? This song was in response to the Vietnam war.

  • Comment removed

  • i love the beatles, but aint that fond of hippies. it seems im in quite a dilemma anyways god bless and UP THE IRONS FROM LOUISIANA

  • Comment removed

  • TO THE DILL WEED WHO SAYS THIS IS AGAINST OWS-- it's a message to AVOID the bullshit in a revolution. duh- uh!

  • @silvior47 ... dude, what's with the ignorant statements? First you call everyone that doesn't agree with you a Republican, second you act like calling them a Republican is an insult. Its attitudes like yours that make this movement look bad. Yes the occupy movement is bringing upon these discussions, and trying to change things. You are not, you seem like a thirteen year old potty mouth that should get a spanking from mommy. You obviously are not affiliated with any occupy group.

  • @silvior47dude, whats with the ignorant statements and trying to call everyone a republican thay doesnt share the k

  • @jerievans100 and im not saying this about you by any means, but it seems like most of the side thats against ows is ignorant and repetitive. one can only hear "get a job you lazy hippi" so many times before realizing that it doesnt matter because they must be retarded. i dont occupy because i have a kid and a job, but i stay active and know many that do have jobs and no children that occupy. they all obviously cant be lazy hippis

  • @jerievans100 ... no, you only see one persons language, if you want to put his faults on all of the movement, so be it. That'd just show your ignorance. But as i mentioned, this is my video and so I've read just about every comment, and trust me, the vulgar language is from both sides debating.

  • @silvior47 ... im sorry, but did yiu just make a comment to yourself?

  • i just think the name calling on both sides of the debate is getting ridiculous, if i had known my video was going to produce this much negetivity i probably wouldnt have posted. dont get me wring, debate is good, conveesation is why the video is here to begin with. but the name calling... come on people

  • The amount of greed and lack of compassion by many of the posters is as sickening as those they emulate to be like on Wallstreet.

  • there is an occupy south bend indiana that wasnt on the list!

  • This guy peter King is a truly disgusting human being - is he kin to Lindsey Graham?

  • @blazintommyd1 You got that right a regular piece of shit

  • Haha, really, using this song for your so called "movement" is so contradictory

    Have you even listened to the lyrics? lol

  • why don't you listen to the lyrics? Get it right! and go find a job you friggin hippies...

  • @theFabFour13 Why don't give us a job asshole!!

  • @silvior47 And there you have it.. You're unemployed and broke, so you're blaming those who have more than you. It's just like people of your ilk to blame others for their own problems. So why are you out of work? Did you fail a random piss test? Get fired for being an idiot on the job? In fairness, I will say that plenty of good people have been laid off in this economy, and maybe you're one of the good ones. I tend to doubt that though, simply because of your comments here.

  • @jerievans100 No I have never been fired. Though from your comments here I assume you are one of greedy 1% for whom compassion and income equality is a foreign concept or you are one of the misguided working stiffs who dreams of being one of the greedy 1%. At any rate its obvious you don't care about anyone other than yourself and like most conservative fools you paint everybody who is unemployed with broad brush thinking them to be lazy and unwanting to work.

  • @silvior47 If you've not been fired, why are you out of work?? 1 percent?? I make a decent wage but I'm far from rich by any stretch, nor do I either worry about or plan on ever being rich. I don't have enough gumption to devote my life to a single path as some have, like Bill Gates or others who have enriched our lives with their hard work. My kids will know that they reap what they sow, that they can't expect things to be handed to the, like you are expecting. Good luck with that.

  • I couldn't stop laughing at the one pic saying "IM SO ANGRY I MADE A SIGN!"

  • Curious that you would use one of Lennon's songs for your 'cause'. In his last few years, John Lennon had become disgusted with the types that have become emblematic of the so-called 'occupy' movement.

    It's time to clean up your feces, leave the parks and occupy a job (and a shower).

  • @beatlecop IF THERE WAS A FUCKING JOB TO BE HAD MAYBE THEY WOULD. I HOPE YOU DON'T LOSE YOURS AND BECOME PART OF THE 99%

  • @silvior47 99 percent? Um... Does that mean that anyone with a job is part of the ONE percent? You might want to read this a couple of times to get it settled into your brain, but you won't EVER find a job hanging out on the street holding your sign.

  • @jerievans100 Wow do you actually have a brain in that head of yours? Obviously not your greed and lack of decency, compassion and any humane qualities for that matter have blinded you. Try caring for someone other than yourself.

  • @silvior47 Oh I do.. I care for quite a few people.. I don't care for losers who can't think for themselves though, nor do I care about people who blame others for their own problems, like you are. Life is what you make of it, and all you're making of yours is, well, pretty much nothing. Don't have a job?  Go invent something. Oh no, don't do that! You might get rich and be part of the 1 percent! ENVY is all it is, idiot...

  • @jerievans100 You know absolutely about me. Like all clueless republicans you paint everybody with a broad brush and think everyone unemployed is a lazy bum crackhead. Your ignorance about the Occupy movement and what its stands for doesn't surprise me. You say you're not rich then you're one of the mentally challenged who think by being a worker slave to the rich corporations you can survive in your miserable life. Good luck with that fool.

  • @silvior47 Nope, not rich. Let's say "comfortable", I'm doing ok.. I can afford to gas up my car, by groceries, pay my internet bill and so on. So let me guess, you're one of those who are delusional enough to believe that we can all be completely equal in status and income, yes? A Communist? Some people work, some people are bosses. That's how it works in real life, my poor deluded friend. Start your own company, be your own boss if you don't like the system. Enslave others!

  • @beatlecop John Lennon died in 1980. How the fuck could he be disgusted with people he never met? Lmao good job you blind fuck.

  • It's so nice to see that you guys are changing things.... wait? you haven't changed anything? what a shame. Go occupy a job. Your parents are ashamed of you.

  • @TheCrapocalypse GIVE US A JOB AND WE WILL ASSHOLE

  • @silvior47 There you go again, blaming others for your problems. Put down your pathetic sign and go find work. It's out there, it's just harder to find than it used to be. And yes, you might have to do something you don't particularly like. Welcome to the real world.

  • @jerievans100 I'm not blaming others for my problems. I'm not holding any signs and I just went on an interview. So stop assuming things about me you have no clue about. I've done plenty of hard work in my still do to this day. I work at bar checking ID's when they need someone. I'm not afraid to work more than willing to actually. Why don't you learn a little compassion instead of pissing on people who became unemployed and or homeless though no fault of their own.

  • @silvior47 Good for you! Looking to better yourself, that's a good thing. I have plenty of compassion, but not for cry baby losers blaming their problems on others.. I hope that interview was with a small two person mom and pop company though.. You don't want to be working for the ONE PERCENT.. They're evil after all.. No really, I hope you get the job you interviewed for..

  • @TheCrapocalypse We are changing things idiot, just look how the conversation has changed. The focus is on the income inequality now

  • @silvior47 Oh, because the workers should make as much as the company owners?? You are talking about Socialism. Want that? Go to Sweden, they have a working system. Your taxes will be 60 percent, PLUS the value added tax of 25 percent on everything your purchase. Have fun there.

  • @silvior47 You know, I just read what you posted a second time and I missed something. That 'inequality' thing is interesting. Apparently since you make less than everyone else, you feel that they should give you some of their money so it's all equal, that's what I missed. Hey clown dog, I guarantee that I make more than you and I EARN it. Go earn your own. If I can, so can you. Or are you just too stupid??

  • There is no need for mean comments on here please. We all may not agree with everything that's happening but that doesn't mean we should be against eachother as people. Let's keep it civil.

  • @raddudetommy All the name calling I see is from the OWS side..

  • Occupy Dalal street in India- not against capitalism but against corruption

  • Um, this isn't the best song to use for your cause. Listen to the lyrics.

  • A 14-year-old girl was raped in Dallas by an OWS scumbag.

    Seven people are dead. The list of other crimes is endless.

    The media couldn't care less. Hope you're proud, lefties.

  • @RMR667 Just like a right wing piece of shit always painting with a broad brush. Probably another republican, gag, set-up like those fraud videos they did during the 08 campaign. Plenty of lies on the right too.

  • @silvior47 Who owns the so-called leftwing media? CNN owned by GE a you guessed it a corporation. WallStreet Journal owned by Murduck

  • @silvior47 You fell for John Edwards' "corporate media" line? Dude, do NOT admit that in puiblic anymore, or your intellectual credibility will be destroyed before you can spell either of those two words. Many corporations are run by leftists, and you need to take a look at Obama's relationship with GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt. Obama made him the head of his Jobs Council. A man whose company made billions and paid NO taxes, making billions more pushing this 'green' idiocy, & you couldn't care less.

  • youtube.com/watch?v=hY-VDN2hv_­w&feature=related

  • So when do all of you plan to sell your computers and donate the money to Oxfam International?

  • This is great My two favorite things OWS and the Beatles! How about OWS and the John Lennon song 'POWER TO THE PEOPLE!" I think that should be a OWS anthem in memory of John Lennon.

  • This occupy shit is annoying. They want socialism. They're upset cause others have more than them. Well guess what? Its not pre-k anymore, stuff ain't gonna be shared equally

  • love it

  • such a great song

  • Stupid occupy 'tards LISTEN TO THE WORDS OF THE SONG...your movement is falling apart.

  • @adriel4889 we're still here and impacting the debate

    

  • This song's meaning isn't anything like Occupy Wallstreet. In fact, it could almost be seen as being against it. The song is saying that it's "Gonna be alright" and that a Revolution isn't necessary.

  • @JackSkelling10 You are exactly right. This video is ridiculous. Its like they didn't even listen to the words. This song was against violence, yet there are robberies and rapes going on in this Occupy thing. People are throwing bottles and rocks at police.

    The song says if you want to change the Constitution, we want to change your head. But these people carry signs promoting socialism and communism.

    They don't seem to get that this song is AGAINST violent revolution.

  • When you talk about destruction don't you know you can count me out.

    You say you have a solution well you know we'll all love to see the plan

    You say you'll change the constitution

    Well you know we all want to change your head

    You tell me its the institution

    you better free your mind instead

    You know its going to be alright.

    This song opposes what your about. You may have your reasons for occupy wall street but no plan

    Those really behind this do have a plan and you are not included good luck

  • @JWilsonRealEstate - that almost sounds a lil threatening/intimidating - which is what the song truly opposes.  Mr. Real Estate Man, people like you make me nervous...it's all because of real-estate development/ownership and such that we're in this mess. If your plan is better than that, then good luck to you too...

  • @heidi1535 Real estate agents are part of the 99%. I think Lennon's point on "see a plan" is just that,my plan is the Constitution and a Republic, not a Democracy or Anarchy or Socialism/Communism Are there problems with bailouts to banks Freddie and Fannie? Yes and that is Socialism/Fascism. The 1% you are protesting are the ones funding, organizing, and leading this movement. Ask yourself why? I believe in individual liberty,responsibility and charity That's true freedom and compassion

  • @heidi1535 How is what he said intimidating? He was quoting the song for Pete's sake! As far as what he said at the end, that wasn't a threat, that was a warning. The people who organized this chaos are going to stab you in the back. Not us.

    As soon as you outlive your usefulness they will turn on you. Its history repeating itself.

    Its Van Jones' plan."Top down, bottom up, inside out." He knows what he is doing and the protesters are just pawns. You are EXPENDABLE!

  • @bantyhenrants - umm, ok...that's exactly what I imagine would happen if and when I would outlive "usefulness" to you or him...I take it you are the new generation of the manson family girls - STFU, please! You dimwit follower...and please, grow a brain of your own before you make me want to strangle you myself...

  • @heidi1535 The Manson family, really? You are a fool as well as a tool. Basically all I said was that this song is against violent revolution and it shouldn't be used as an anthem for OWS, because they are becoming more violent every day.

    I said that the leaders of this debacle will "eat" (not literally) the useful idiots and they will. So, my only question is which are you? Maybe you plan on eating the idiots. Maybe you're a leader. Aww! are you pissed that we exposed the plan? Get over it!

  • @JWilsonRealEstate I see it as the people in power, Wall St. and politicians have no plan. They talk but have shown us absolutely nothing.  I guess you can see this is like the bible, open to interpretation. I see opposite of you. Glad I do.

  • @sport142 .... You are looking at everything with a bias, which is a sad thing. Such a sad life you must live to be so biased.

  • @BlackRonin2917 I'm not a clown, itd be a sweet job though. I understand lyrics. I'm not deaf. I have other videos, people just watch this one more. And please don't come on here and spit mainstream media lies. George Bush sucked Wang but he doesn't stand for all republicans. ONE guy shit on a cop car so don't judge us all. Plus it's already been discovered that that guy was a cop trying to make OWS look bad

  • Apparently, this clown did not listen to the lyrics. The pee party does not have a plan, except destroy private and public property, raping women, and defecating on the street!

  • OWS are a collection of useful idiots. You commit crimes on innocent people, you are greedy for others possesions. Public defication, numerous rapes, assaults...this is your great movement. I'll bet George Soros is proud of you degenerates...

  • The old hippies SOLD OUT for greed, money and power and are the ones that screwed up our country!... They sold the Hippy Soul....May they rectify it now by joining the Occupy.

  • Ha ha ha!!!! This song is against OWS message. You big dummies.

  • @Shnitzelism Most liberals can't think for themselves... If they would they would have figured out that this Beates tune was against revolution. Show me the plan liberals!

  • @packster1977 - As opposed to the Republicans who wanted to use "Little Pink Houses" and "Born In The USA" for campaign songs before someone explained to them exactly what the lyrics meant?

  • @Shnitzelism "But when you talk about destruction dont you know that you can count me out(IN)."

  • Moneys evil.

  • YES!!!!!!

  • nicely done

  • The 99% are th e moms & dads who are atruggling to put food on the table or clothe their kids or who are just hanging on by a thread to their homes but still can't afford gas for their cars or who have to choose between gas or heat or between heat or groceries. More older adults need to be in the streets, they are the hardest hit by all of this.

  • @jimmoynihan watch my other video, the photo montage to John Butler Trio. That song is also called Revolution. It much more defines the purpose of the Occupy movement. Notice how it has received less than 300 views even though it has been on YouTube just as long as this video. I fully understand the lyrics of the Beetles song, but hey, you have to give the people what they want. At least my message is getting out.

  • @OccupyFollower Don't like big corporations?? Throw away your I-Phone, take off your Levi jeans, your Reeboks, sell your car, make clothes out of leaves and go live in the woods. Everything you have is due to corporations, EVERYTHING. They provide jobs, and if you don't have one tough shit, try harder. Suck it up, buttercup...

  • @jerievans100 It's about balance fool! Its okay to like some things that doesn't mean we have to support the greed of the 1%. Get your head out of your ass and maybe you might be able to see.

  • @silvior47 Balance?? What balance is that? Where the rich give some of theirs to you, after they earned it?? That's not balance, that's communism/socialism. There are countries who have that, go live in one of them and be happy.

  • @jerievans100 This used to be a decent country where people cared for one another. I'd like to think it still is and I'll be damned if I let heartless greedy hate-filled scumbags like you take it away.

  • @silvior47 This still is a decent country, idiot, but hey, if you don't like it go elsewhere.. I have very little hate in me, so (what was it you said earlier?) don't assume things about me that you know nothing about. And what are you going to do, come get me?? People like YOU have already ruined this country by thinking that they are OWED something. No one owes you SHIT. You have the right of the PURSUIT of happiness, so go pursue it.

  • The Occupy Song.

  • Umm, you do realize this song is a statement against what "occupy" is doing right ? Just sayin.

  • We all want to change the world! #Solidarity

  • I guess Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr are the 1% now.

  • the world is watching and we will not forget or forgive ! the lies of the 1% will come back to take them down !

  • A lovely edit.

  • Loving what you guys are doin: ) for real but not all those signs had a good idea. We shouldnt be fighting a particular greed. It should just be fighting greed.(I do see who the greediest are lawl:3) But like we should repent babylon, not take part in it. Come on guys listen to the song^ "but if you go carrying pictures of chairmen round" Like seriously man lets just try to live with respect and tranquil liberty. Bring back the Declaration & Bill of Rights(originals)? lol hmm?

  • THANK YOU :-) music, yes!!! this grooves!!

    all the best from us...

    THE CONCERT - World Festival for Real Democracy

  • OUT fucking STANDING!!! John Lennon is smiling down on all of us!! congradulations John Lennon you finally have your REVOLUTION !!!

  • most excellent.

  • Trying to enjoy this vid but it's really slow and keeps pausing on me. Tried pausing it myself too so it can get a little ahead of itself but that takes forever too! LOL! Anyway...nice job!

  • Am an old hippie protester, and am finally getting a bit optimistic about the future of humandkind due to this Occupy movement. Was almost without hope whatsoever after seeing decades of mindlessness and blind acceptance of enormous loss of rights. Am happy-dancing and am almost beginning to hope for a better future for you all and our children. Keep on the streets, keep speaking truth and do NOT give in!

  • @Rainesails right on, right on, right on. thank you!

  • YES! love ALL WE NEED IS LOVE!

  • .☆.¸¸.★.☀.ॐ ♡ レo√乇, PEACE, BALANCE = FREEDOM ♡ ॐ.☀.★.¸¸.☆.

  • Yessss! Think I will watch this every morning! Share this with everyone!

  • Thank you for putting this together! I love it! John Lennon is very pleased I am sure! This IS what It IS about! Revolution!!! Peace!

  • Occupy the world. this is HUMAN REVULUTION

  • great video to start my morning with!!!! thanks

  • Some people just don't get it until it is in their best interest to get it, Be patient you doubters, soon you too will lose your job, house, car, whatever and then you will get it. Meanwhile we will fight so that maybe you won't have to suffer that.

  • Comment removed

  • Alas, this is a song about being disillusioned , not inspired ....

  • The manifesto is not a plan, it's a bunch of lofty goals without any practical idea of how to get there. The Dems have been trying, but without the help of all the OWS supporters who think that they have a better idea, the Republicans are gonna win the war after OWS goes home.

  • "We'd all love to see the plan."

  • @OccamsAxe There is one. Just Google Occupy Wall Street Manifesto or Declaration.

  • @InGodsCountry , demands are not a plan. It's easy to know what the problems are. The solutions are complicated, first by the very nature of the problems, then by the opposition, and now by people who have the same interests as the Dems, but who, without a plan, think they know better.

  • We are Occupying Port Angeles, Sequim & Port Townsend Washington!!!!! Together we will never be divided!!!!!!
