  • Although I am probably out of date with the comments, or the posting, I'll give my 2pence worth anyway.

    Copyright issues cause a lot of videos to be either removed or have the audio binned. It's a bit pedantic at best from these huge companies. On video's like this and others which are, essentially, advertising the band/track fro free, it seems a shot in the foot.

    Sure, everything can be cracked and the audio nabbed out of the video, but honestly, I think these vids will increase sales.

  • @TheVintageCustom What pisses me off most of all is that THAT is EXACTLY what videoclips, including Joe's here, WERE ALL ABOUT!!!!

    They were Ads! Nothing more than advertisements that tv stations barely paid for as content, and music companies were only too happy to have tv stations play as often as they liked.

    But, ooooooh no, now that videoclips have become an artform in themselves, when DVD compilations of videoclips make money, enter the lawyers.

    F*** their money-making.

  • @ara9ond That is true, and the whole issue would be amusing if not so irritating.

    Here's something for you: We have recorded TV programs and recorded/ripped the audio from them. That is only because the TV broadcast video had better sounding, more dynamic music than the single or album on CD, despite the broadcast being most likely MPEG encoded and missing anything >20kHz. We have bought the CD, and it sounds like pooh! This was with Keane, I think. The T4 broadcast was sonically better.

  • STUPID

    

  • Huh?

    

  • I love this song. I always turn it up all the way and sometimes I lose my hearing for a minute or so. I think it might have happened again...

  • pas de son chez moi, dommage pour un clip ( no sound ! )

  • no audio

  • HIMYM

  • STUPID COPYRIGHTERS...!! They did not need to do that!! It's abrilliant effort. If only it wasn't for the audio...!!

  • Comment removed

  • If you hadn't disabled ratings, I would give you a thumbs up for the effort. Guys it not his fault. Screw WMG and their political bastards. Thumbs up if Youtube has turned into Mytube

  • They ruined your video, dude. IMHO you put a great music video together. Bet Joe Jackson wouldn't have minded!

  • So why don't these useless Rock River cunts upload the video themselves then?

  • Still one of my favorite videos on here!

  • Copyright is such a bitch....

  • Bands will be playing silent concerts next :(

  • I MADE this damn video........no copyright is held by ANYONE...including ME!!!

    Attica Attica Attica

  • there is more than no volume goin on here!!!

  • F'*ckin Copyright Nazis, removing music from all YourTube vids...

    I say, boycott the bosstardz, only download bootleg music and/or download music from online only bands... it's the wave of the future of music , in case you don't already know this trend

    This vid is enjoyable even without music...

  • why the no volumeness

  • No volume!!!!!!

  • No volume!!!!!!

  • hey youtube ! whats gone wrong with you ?

  • Awe seriously? This was my favorite video! Now it has no sound, stupid public media.

  • booooooo  hisss

  • You think you all that but you ain,t

  • Oh lose the hood

  • there is no sound for me=(

  • this song is like story of my life

  • you can't hear your own life?

  • yeah fuck the hungry bastards and fuck the money hungry artists like prince who only want their fans for the money!!

  • Idiotic record execs are THE very reason that music sales are so down atm. They are profit hungry and are not willing to revamp their business model to change with the new technology.

  • Tell me about it, the morons genuinely think publicity like this (FREE publicity I might add) is a negative thing. Oh well, P2P here I come.

  • If you guys read the description it says a company claimed copyright on the song and removed the audio

  • wtf, i can't hear anything? ? ?

  • WTF whats the point if you can't hear anything fucken cunt

  • Ahhh Ive gone deaf!!!

  • HAAAAAAAAAAAHAHHAHAAHAHAHAAAAA­AAAA

    fuck we've all gone deaf!!!!!

  • Well it was good when they had first uploaded it cause it had the music...But the jackass record execs made them take it off.

  • Yeah right what a load of shit.

  • damm no sound! I really like this video, those guys really looklike they they are having fun and it is obviously a tribute to a great song!

  • thank fuck for that,i thought i had gone deaf.

  • Aw the copyright Nazis have muted you!

  • ='( i've gone deaf

  • someone fix this fuckin video this is bull shit...... this is the best for this song...

  • FUCK GOOGLE.

Fuck you, asshole.

  • Fucking ridiculous that all these companies complain and enforce muting on these videos. It just makes them look like tight, total dicks, and decreases exposure of their artist's music.

    Knob ends.

  • i couldnt hear anything but i could tell its funny!! :)

  • Ya know - and I'm saying this as a current law student - I fucking hate most lawyers.

    Yeah, I understand artists wanting to get paid for their work, but for fuck's sake - this song has been making Joe money for what, 30 years? Might he and the lawyers throw a bone to the little guy, who really is giving them free advertising when they make these vids?

    Think about it Joe (and lawyers); how many kids will watch this, dig the song, and go looking for it on iTunes? New generations of fans. Duh.

  • I've said it before and I'll say it again - if 99% of all radio stations didn't SUCK BALLS, people wouldn't be looking for songs on Youtube! Hello? Radio stations? Are you listening? PLAY BETTER, MORE DIVERSE MUSIC! That's how the artists get paid royalties and get better exposure to a larger fan base. Listening to songs on Youtube is what happens when the radio stations play the same damn 10 songs all day long every day! Exposure on Youtube probably leads to more CD and iTunes sales!

  • Hello; this is the radio, speaking. Shut up.

  • Kill all the lawyers!

  • booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooooooooobobob­oboboboboboboooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooo

    where is the sound booooo

  • Aw SHIT!

    Favorited this a long time ago, pulled it up just now and - no audio.

    Eh, is JJ really going to miss out on a big pile of money because this guy used his song here? I dunno. Everything's run by lawyers now....

  • This really sucks that that damn piece of shit company pulled the audio on this...This was a great video.

  • the money grabbing greedy sods

    killjoys

    u find something u like then some c--t

    stops it

  • im really starting to fucking hate you tubes guts they started taking the audio out of my videos to and just about half the videos on my favorited list are getting cut out because of copy right claims and bull shit its really pissing me off you cant even make a video with music even if you bought the cd and installed it to your comp. how many people are going to fucking ask the god damn companies for fucking permission to play there music? its stupid as fucking hell.

  • Maybe if the record companies and radio stations actually bothered to play some good music once in a while, people wouldn't be looking for it on fucking Youtube!!!! Hello??? Music company and radio station executives??? Are you listening??

  • You have my support - Fuck 'Rock River Communications' - BOYCOTT THEM!

  • Youtube has really gone to hell with all this "no it's mine" bullshit. I feel for you man.

  • fuk this, fuk ytube and fuk joe jakson

  • Same thing happened to my Mini-sitcom trilogy thing. I was gutted, nobody watched it in the first place but in case things got going there was no ending because universal took the audio off, pricks :S.

  • National Geographic does the same thing, claiming videos contain content that they don't own. Then YouTube pays them for the views it gets.

  • Hmm Rock River doesnt own any rights to my best knowledge, they are only a branding company O_o, they make music for commercials for Addidas and Diet Coke FFS

  • imagine that, another greedy ahole corporation. what do they think they are going to make some money from it? when can we expect it's re release?

    f''in idiots!

  • Damnit, I love this video and have been coming back to watch it - and listen to it - for months.

  • Fuck you Rock River Communica/ Communications! This is so shit because this vid was really awesome.

  • sux

  • W Dreyfuss!! complimenti e grazie per la tua battaglia !

  • no sound wtf?

  • Read the description

  • Fuck that Rock River Comminica. Keep this video online! :)

  • Explain to me again why I can't hear anything? Oh, never mind , I read the head-lines. Conundrum.

  • Wow fuckin record companies. I go on youtube to listen to music, and I cant find 1 single good version of this song. I think once you buy a song legit, that you have the right to do whatever with that song (A.E. add it to a video). Well other than make copies and sell it. And it's not like people are gonna rip the song off youtube. Theres an easyer way, download it.

  • Must be Karaoke

  • could u take this vid off the net. your taking up space and wasting people's time

  • im wiv ya

  • Could u stop breathing and go and fuckin die a slow painful death?

  • u lil bitch, shut the fuck up!

  • Screw those Rock River bastards....you guys did a good job on this and they pull it...that's fucked up.

  • Fuck Rock River. That is all.

  • misleading text...

  • wtf happened to the sound?!?!?!?! FTS!

  • no audio?

  • where did the sound go, this use to have it

  • Contact Joe's manager Michael Maska at the Joe Jackson fan site on Yahoo. He'll let you know. I don't think JJ would have a problem - but if someone else owns the rights maybe.

  • penis

  • where's the sound

  • A music video without Audio XD

  • no audio?

  • me to

  • Cool vid!

  • i love this song ha this dude is awesome

  • POO PPO

  • I love this song, but man, he is so off with the lip synching lol.

  • You are correct. It is a combination of lots of factors that make him so off. One he didn't know the words 100%, two I had problems matching the music to his lip syncing, three when i converted it so it could upload on youtube it knocked it out of alignment a little.

    It bothers me like crazy everytime i watch the video.

  • Is this the official music video? Because the girl with the guitar in the background is just sorta strumming randomly.

  • Yeah, England in the 1970s looked exactly like the USA in 2008.

  • still a great video though

  • FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG!!

    My dad played it for me all the time

  • look over there!...where?....there.

  • its not funny but i like this song.

  • before my time. big bro told me about.

  • Great song. A classic.

  • loved it

  • This is a good song by Joe Jackson.

    It hits home for any guy who knows he's good looking or rich and feels he should have his choice of girls while realizing he just can't pick his girl.

    Some guys truly shake their heads at the relationships they see out in public. Joe Jackson brings that to light in this song.

    This is an underrated '70's song that peaked at about #15 on the pop charts in August, 1979.

  • i agree with ya, those stupid guys...

  • SNEEDISH VIDEO

  • doesn't sugar ray do a version of this?

  • just as long as you know that you are not Joe Jackson...that's what matters.

  • 'steady as she goes' by the racountors? they stole the bassline from this song

  • this was a cool video, nice work. great choice of song

  • Fantastic Job guys added to my favourites

  • good job guys...thanks for posting lmao

  • good job love this song like joe jacksons version better than sugar ray. the original is always the best. takes me back 2 my teenage years i always was the guy girls fucked over.

  • This song reminds me way too much of my high school years, when all the girls seemed to be taken. If I weren't married, I'd make it a point of sleeping with girls in relationships just to show it can be done (and to say F You to their boyfriend).

  • usnt this song on A SIMPSON EPISODE?

  • i love the part when he sais "look over there" then they say "WERE" it just sounds funny.

  • nicely done

  • This song came out in the summer when I was just starting in high school!!!

    Great song!!! Thanks for posting it!!!!!

  • this song reminds says what has happened 2 me time and time again, but fuck it, im happy now!!

    THIS SHOULD BE THE OFFICIAL VIDEO FOR THIS SONG!!

  • Joe Jackson's great! I grew up with his music in the 80's He's the man!!

  • Love this video. You've made an excellent job of it, thank you.

  • Really enjoyed it, thank you
