Give Peace A Chance - John Lennon & Plastic Ono Band - Toronto 1969

[McBigMac19]

No hate on Yoko but she's not a good singer.

[yusuf1608]

Tommy Cooper!

toronto peace festival september 1969

[Mavi1390]

Lo dijo Lennon Lo dice hoy la Presidenta Cristina Kirchner Señor Cameron!! Demosle una oportunidad a la Paz!! Basta de colonización

[DOMESTOS229]

John borrowed the chorus from Tibetan monks?

[blueberry72]

Such great video quality!

[AAErikCO]

Yoko sounds like a dying cat

[Marcsince79]

hell does not exist... It's a Christian thing. out, dated, and hungry. Why do you feed a monster? Concentrate on peace, not the things that divide us. The universes.

[wizkidextrordinare]

@Marcsince79 It's not a christian thing, the catholic church made it up so people would listen to them out of fear!

[Marcsince79]

lucky the gays are not militant... then we'd have a police state of good quality fashion!

[Marcsince79]

Yeah Canada... try saying that shit down in Mississipi. John was a black man, waiting to be hung. The USA is fighting a civil war right now. We all know it is about money. "I'm half white," but what the hell kinda way to think? I wish Peace for everyone and especially those who are not white... 9 times out of 10 it is harder for them in this world. Black is just another color... I have never met a white or black person. just shades of pink, orange, or brown.

[MovieMaker484]

What the heck?!? "I forgot the words, in the middle..." Johnny, please. You wrote this awesome song, so I think you should remember the words!

[groovistic]

Because, one of the things that really upset me that Goldman said was that John couldn't play guitar. Well, every performance I've seen, he looks like he's playing just fine, sounds good, got rhythm. He was not as smooth a lead player as Clapton or whoever, but honestly, he was one of the best rhythm players I've ever seen, judging by all this live stuff showing up on YouTube. And Goldman went out of his way to say John was overrated and looked like he had Huntington's chorea. Horseshit!

[groovistic]

Oh my *god*. You know, I read that Goldman book when I was a kid--I kind of idolized Lennon and then I read that book, and it messed me up real bad, because here was Goldman saying all this stuff, I was a kid, I didn't know, I had never seen any of Lennon's performances, there was no Internet, no YouTube, none of that. So to watch this stuff and to watch Willowbrook and to see interviews--Goldman was clearly full of *shit*, and quite frankly I think scared of and jealous of John.

[LinkHarkinian]

@Alithecomedian Fuck Clapton.

[sunking683]

John Lennon = jesus

[Zimnyification]

At about 2:04, minus the weird clapping and of key singing, Yoko really does look like she's admiring John. It's kind of sweet.

[Zimnyification]

Lol @ German

[KraftGarde]

@Zimnyification whats the matter the he counted on German before start play the song? His international Beatles career started in Hamburg - Germany and he also sang in German at that time. pffffffff

[maryt38]

More relevant than ever, seems like the whole damm planet is at war or is it just man at war with him/her self? Or should I say fear?

[Shalomlion91]

@SilvaEuripedes  I think its German

[harrietcow]

The Screecher (Yoko) has surprisingly large boobs for a small Japanese woman.

[SilvaEuripedes]

0:19 Does anyone know the language he speaks in this part?

[siem2121]

@SilvaEuripedes german

[BeanShip]

John Lennon is one cool motherfucker.

[liorgoldstein2005]

only 2 arnt giving peace a chance

[SeniaaReezy]

Beautiful...

[LesbianVampireLover]

The Toronto Peace Festival was a great one. The Jerry Lee Lewis set was awesome, as chronicled in "The Birth of Rock and Roll" video, plus the Little Richard set.

[TruthContest]

Imagine all the people, living for today, living life in peace, sharing all the world. Imagine a world united in reason and truth, with no war, no poverty, no deception, no division. Imagine a world where we all radiate Love's presence, with absolute appreciation for the Infinite dance of Life. This is the world John Lennon imagined, and we are the ones that can achieve it. Search "Truth Contest" in Google, click the 1st result, then open The Present and read what it says.

[sirgermanm78]

We still are singing this! Wow! it started 42 years up now!

To be a PEACEMAKER IS THE BEST CONTRIBUTION TO OUR BROKEN WOLD!

Blessings!

[shankey08055]

For the most part I didn't even knew that ERIC was there. I only noticed him when he sang. I feel so stupid now.

Watching two legends sharing the stage, awesome.

[JollyGothicKid]

I wanna grow a beard now.

[szolnokmeichel]

Thank, Lennon!

[JT8800]

This is a pretty poor performance given the talent that's on the stage.

[rocketrols]

2 Dislike People Is Justin Bieber Fun .. John Lennon Forever !

[Dirkson3]

ist der ein deutscher?

[BoBaMel]

This... thing sounds like the weeping of baboon.

[thejohnlennon42]

LENNON LOVE.

PEACE PROMISE.

COSMIC CHANT.

[Fredrockroll]

fucking hell, turn Clapton guitar up a bit

[easyjdier]

@Fredrockroll Right-on my friend! And turn Yoko totally OFF!

[Flamepwnz]

@xScuttlebuttx It was to put out a message mainly, so uhh yeah its simple and repetitive. It's so much better then pop that pussy and shake ass by lil Wayne over and over again. This has so much more meaning to it.

[lighhtningking]

thank u sound man for turning yokos vocals down!

[Newzionis]

@lighhtningking I couldnt agree more  merci beaucoup toronto

[chiefdancingostriche]

2 mfs did not like this. what do they know? this song still rocks today. GIVE PEACE A CHANCE!

[Alektri92]

And that kids is why Jesus has a beard.

[DMarriott81]

@xScuttlebuttx so whats wrong in having an reptitive song once in a awhile?

[familyguyfan5972]

YOU HEARD JOHN, NOW GIVE PEACE A CHANCE!!!!

[grobb1996]

who in the right mind would dislike this? even if it was only 1 person???

[Kinkspace]

@grobb1996 Someone in the Military Industrial Complex... There's a lot of it about ;)

[CheefinLaReefa]

@grobb1996 what a dick

[metalblond1]

@grobb1996 the one person who would dis this is pete best

[kevinreedmusic]

is it true Keith Moon was the drummer for this gig?

[Bartholomule01]

@kevinreedmusic

I just purchased the vinyl of this concert. Alan White is listed as the drummer.

[gabriel3333333333333]

[caspargrindcore]

[sbrem13]

i was looking for songs during the vietnam war protest movement and i saw this was one of them...died of happiness inside

[treatb09]

@sbrem13 it was an end of an era when he died

[heyitsjeff777]

john lennon was the ultimate case of whipped he left the beatles cuz of yoko... bitch

[treatb09]

@heyitsjeff777 he broke the unspoken rule when he brought her to practice

[SOUPRUN01]

@heyitsjeff777 Lennon says interview that if your gonna blame Yoko for spliting up the Beatles then you have to make her responsible for all the beautful music they made since. He says they were driting apart anyway. He did'nt want to be singing She Loves you when he was 30, etc.

[heyitsjeff777]

@SOUPRUN01 she was trying to act like she knew everything

[zener706]

queremos paz para la humanidad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Malleficae]

Someone doesn't give peace a chance...

[claulopezrodriguez]

The one who put 'dislike' was Hitler or George Bush or Roosevelt, Nixon, Tommy Jones and Tommy Cooper or Somebody.

[molly13bored]

too bad hes gone.

[jbucci98]

I admire John he is my idol, bt not to be cruel to him.....but Yoko cant sing for her life

[madking241]

[samy30casam]

ahaha Yoko parece wendy sulca en ese video xD

[deedee2020able]

Peace now peeps...No more war!!!

[rickrobertbob]

John would likely be pissed that people had to watch a commercial to listen to this. That's just my take I never met the guy.

[cheriansrule]

Peace, Peace, Peace to all the revolutions in the middle east!

[Alithecomedian]

Eric clapton is one lucky motherfucker. He played with hendrix, lennon, duane allman. Strangely enough they all died and he survived

[ZZqezza]

@Alithecomedian Yeah he is really made of sterner stuff. Drugs, alcohol, several car accidents but luckily he's still among us

[PunkJeny]

@Alithecomedian haha.. Today is Clapton's Bitrhday :)

[Berenueve]

@Alithecomedian don't forget George Harrison

[jokkergar]

@Alithecomedian hendrix WTF??

[skylineXpert]

@Alithecomedian clapton has witnessed history of music, he should write a book

[ahindat2]

[georgelee43211]

This concert helped put the nail on the Beatles coffin.

[chimproller]

@georgelee43211 - can you imagine paying hard-earned money to see that crap?

Horrid.

[georgelee43211]

@chimproller It will be worth it.

[elnuse]

[ANIKANSKYWALKERG]

@Theknuckler49 correct

[GonzoGuyy]

@Theknuckler49 Yeah in German...Goes back to the Hamburg days.

[purpalhaaz]

i think John was pulling your leg .. when you look at his performance here, does he look like someone who threw up before the show ?? do you honestly believe someone with his touring experience and notorious drug use would be so nervous before a show ??? sorry, doesn't make sense ..........

[georgeledzep666]

THIS IS THE SONG OF THE MILLENNIUM..

[smk786x]

0:04 lol, what was that about?

[ninenine909]

@smk786x John did that just for fun. Even with the Beatles. Especially in the Shea Stadium concert. lol.

John also like to dance in public. ;)

[fabulosoyeah100]

Ohh just Give Peace a Chance..!

[MichalFokt]

this "electric" version sound s to me better that the original acoustic :-)

[ogreboy608]

Everybody's talking about John And Yoko, Eric Clapton, Klaus Voormann, Penny Lane, Roosevelt, Nixon, Tommy Jones and Tommy Cooper and Somebody!. :D:D

[alexandertechnology]

@ogreboy608 .. if he was alive.. can you imagine what he would be doing today?!

[71dhb]

I heard Lennon and Clapton were so high on coke that Clapton had to lie down at some point....

[M0NKEYDLUFF]

PEACE IS PERFECTLY POSSIBLE! THE REST OF WORLD JUST ISN'T TRYING HARD ENOUGH!

[SHONA825]

He was at his RAW Rock & Roll Peak. This was IMO the BEST version of GPAC

anywhere. The Middle eight ROCKS. The Feeling is amazing. This was a time when John had some new AIR blown into his LUNGS. It gave him the courage to say Goodbye to the most popular SHOW on Earth........//o-o\\

[jabirujoe]

I was there......

[wischkaun]

@jabirujoe realy??



[msbeatriztomasi]

The Lennon's voice is fantastic!

[gabridad]

...I am still talking about Tommy Cooper :-)

[ealiagac]

Wonderful.
