  • two words... ear orgy.

  • I love this song. Have it by Joss Stone and Jeff Beck too. This is my kind of music. Love these guys and their raw voices. And.. Johnny Depp does play. He sits in with Keith Richards and other groups and has his own band too. He was a musician before he was an actor.

  • who’s the red head?

  • a drunk squirell her voice is okej and doctor doom, killing the song!! sad...

  • Absolutely fuking amazing! Johnny ur killing meeeee shittt!

  • Shane is such a BADASS!!!

  • Chuk Norris???

  • Sorry but the guitar solo at the end was not Depp playing, it was Mick Jones. It amazes me that most of the comments are trashing the song yet 95% liked it as opposed to disliking it. How can musical geniuses like MacGowan and Cave put something together that justifies such bad comments? Answer.....they can't. Most people don't know what truly great music is anymore. Everyone has been exposed to this watered down auto tuned crap for so long, that great music like this video is called bad.

  • @cubsfan7992 Shane is a pretty mediocre singer. Other than that, I still like his music, but this is definitely not one of the best covers I've heard

  • @RyanPerson Mediocre? Are you stoned?

  • @TheYoungie42 Actually if I was stoned I'd probably like it lol

  • @cubsfan7992 no pretty sure that solo was depp. i mean, he knows how to play and he was in a band and everything.

  • too many cooks...

  • shit yeahhh depp

  • Horrible. And worst teeth per capita EVER!

  • Sorry...I'm a fan of Shane...the Pogues...and most everyone else in this video. So it amazed me how bad it was. It took that many legends to completely destroy a classic song?

  • amazing!! :D  depp playing guitar solo also surprise me

  • in my opinion this was pretty bad. too many chefs in one kitchen

  • Nick Cave... this was just.... this whole thing was ah-fuckn-maze-zing♥

  • ILL STILL DRINK WITH YA SHANE

  • Johnny Drop?

  • disgrace. donkey singing

  • Wow u can NOT sing!!!!!!

  • Wow, blew me away.

  • Sounds like a lot of Waits inspired singing here. Like hanshotfirst1138 said! I kept waiting for someone though with the range to hit that high note and no-one came through but besides that - Two Bottoms Up!

  • I found another AMAZING version!! /watch?v=ZK-oKU4nF4s

  • Comment removed

  • this is so terrible it's good/

  • amazing

  • Ale czad!!!!! Suuupeerrrrrrrrrrr!

  • I love Paloma Faith in this <3

  • uramatyám, ráz a hideg. ilyen jót régen hallottam. rulez!

  • I like his music and suprisingly his teeth!

  • Johnny Depp XD??..

  • y'all r beautiful to me ♡ 4 ever

  • Shane is the best !!!

  • Captain Sparrow!!!!

  • I think my ovaries just spontaneously combusted...

  • God, this kicks We Are The World's ass.

  • awww, nick

  • oh god so aroused

  • 2:45 i like everybody except him

  • @Thehottieinthepottie Bobby Gillspie isn't the greatest singer out there, but listen to through Screamadelica and Vanishing Point and you'll see he has his uses. Bobby is the only one of these I've seen live and I must say it was a magnificant show. Mani from the evermighty Stone Roses on bass.

  • oooooh vfuckin yessssssssss rock an rolll  baby

  • Needs more Jim Dale

  • Epic

  • that need a little more of Paloma Faith

  • oh the awsomeness...and johnny depp!

  • Paloma Faith and Eliza Doolittle are awesome. I love their voices:)))

  • i <3 paloma faith.

  • eliza doolittle didn't get to sing much did she :(

  • Yeah jones is playing guitar in most of the vid w/the exception of Depp @ the end,

    Goddamn man Macgowan looks rough"damn"..Nick Cave , Eliza Doolittle,Primal Scream singer Bobby Gillespie,ex Pistol Glen Matlock,Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders,along w/singer Paloma Faith,are also in the vid,heh Jones is playin a fire extinguisher about a minute into the vid ,fukers still wild"CLASH"city Rocker!

  • Do I see Mick Jones? Or is it just Nick Cave from a weird angle, haha

  • look at my sexy video #OMG

  • Nick Cave sounds very different on this one.

  • Are these people all drunk/drugged up/asleep *delete where appropriate

  • Paloma Faith is an annoying cock... so obvious, the shtick she does. The other musicians are awesome though. They're real.

  • I think this song is too personal to have more than one person singing it at a time. It's like a movie where the actors are changed every scene. Other than that, I think this is excellent.

  • the meeting of the vocal gods

  • Gets the blood goin

  • Paloma Faith have a super vocal... I like it so much... =)

  • Chrissie Hynde leaves them all in the dust.

  • i want paloma faith version of this song !!!!!!

  • Big mistake trying to cut laura out of the single!

    No wonder it did bad because none of her fans bought it

  • johnny depp shreds :) the rest is awesome tho.. :D

  • So sad, where's Shane??????? Growling in the background....

  • @favdiabetes That was him right at the beginning....

  • To me, the song is crying from pleasure by the guitar's electricity...

    One of the best pieces ever.

  • H.A.A.R.P

  • proper bangin that is ....

  • oooohh I laaaaaaaaaaaaavvvvvvvvv paloma faith!!!!!

  • @akedwards76 AHAHA ENVY AND PREJUDICE ARE BAD SINS!

  • @akedwards76 I'll let you know, that is his guitar. And he's quite a decent guitarist.

  • @notforone Bully for him. I'll let you know he's a shite guitarist whose appearance here is justified purely on increased marketability. If that helps shift more units & ultimately helps more Haitiians- fantastic. Fact remains a vintage 60's Gibson should be in the hands of genuinely talented musician, not some tool masquerading as one.

  • @akedwards76 Fact remains a vintage 60's Gibson should be in the hands of anyone who treats it well.

    He may not be the finest musician, but he certainly is a decent one, and definitely holds respects for fine instruments.

  • @notforone Depp definitely holds the funds for fine instruments but if he's your idea of a decent musician, then god help anyone unlucky enough to come into contact with your cd/record collection.

  • yep nick cave is great, but i gotta agree johnny depp looks so good.

  • yep nick cave is great, but i gotta agree johnny depp looks so good

  • FREAKING AWESOME

  • omg....i feel pround of myself who discovered (axcidentally) this this this....words are cheap....

  • Laura White and Eliza Doolittle wtf?

    But how cool does the Johnny Depp look, haha.

  • Some HOT session going on here man :))))

  • Hell Yeah!!!!

  • That was brilliant

  • Shane in a very short time become a grandpa ...

    but i still like him ..

  • I like that song but man's screams are bad.. and i love womn at 1:07 who is she?

  • @KbrHardy66 Paloma Faith

  • The person that gives the 38th thumb down is a tasteless idiot

  • whos that singing at 1:47 ?

  • @sugarpuffsandwich eliza doolittle

  • @FeZIzGoD who's she?

  • Was really impressed with Shanes vocals...really stable...pity that nob palmola(?) came in after him...woulda rathered Shane on his own.

  • This just goes to show that no matter how many fantastic artists there are, and no matter how great the song is, cover songs for charities usually always suck...and Gillespie, as much as I enjoy Screamadelica, can't sing soul worth shit.

  • Wow, Shane sounds awful. And not in a good way, like he used to.

  • @ExUSSailor Shane sounds better than he has lately, actually, I think.

  • YES it fucking IS fucking Johnny Depp fucking playing fucking guitar!

    And YES Nick Cave IS actually losing his hair... He's over fifty, whatcha expect.

  • @NIMRODakaNIMROD He's always had widows peaks...

  • GO JOHNNY GO! <3

  • Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is at Jonny Depp playing guitar?Is that Jonny Depp playing guitar?

  • Am I the only one who thinks this is a horrible song to cover for charity?

  • @bigherm5 Yes.

  • johnny depp ruined it for me

  • where laura white?

  • chrissy almost saved it, but it still sucked

  • Great. And Haiti needs this now, more than ever :-) Ta Shane

  • Shoulda got Tom Waits

  • @karl198 The man is a living legend.... but then so is Sean... HA!..

  • @karl198 They couldn't. Otherwise the world would have exploded from the sheer awesome.

  • @karl198 Is there any time you SHOULDN'T have Tom Waits ;?

  • @hanshotfirst1138  Tom Waits being involved in this would have caused the universe to implode under the weight of the awesome.

  • I love all the artists involved, but the end result was just a shambles, and not in the way that may the original brilliant

  • Jesus Christ this brilliant.

  • the woman playing bass looks like Kim Gordon

  • @peoplelovebadpeople2 dont be mean i love her and i think shes pretty

  • this should have been released as a single, theres loads of famous and talented artists involved in this

  • this is a future classic.. only got to 93 in charts. but it will be back

  • whose the balding guy with long hair playing guitar? and singing?2:07

  • @MrJiffyPop100 i'm not sure, but i think it's Nick Cave

  • @MrJiffyPop100

    it's nick cave!!!!

  • @MrJiffyPop100 That would be Nick Cave. :)

  • The Kills' version is 100 times better than this crap.

    they should've put alison mosshart in it

  • @thisisnotanthony Wouldve been nice but shes too busy with jack and jack sucking up the bottom tier of the barroom crowds with "The Deadweather".

    I guess sometimes being a small fish in a big pond is a bit much, so you just have to become a small fish in a REALLY small pond!

  • I really dislike this version.

  • this song is soooooooooo sexy omg !!!

  • Amazing Shane McGowan!!

  • Comment removed

  • Paloma - AMAZING

    Eliza - AMAZING

    The rest - CRAP!

  • @MeganBilsby oh no.. no no no

  • @MeganBilsby you're 14 aren't you?

  • @annaakhmatova 15... why?

  • @MeganBilsby Because... that's just the kind of thing a 14-15 yr old would say. Hard to explain, in a couple of years you'll understand

  • @MeganBilsby You got it flipped around, kid.

  • @MeganBilsby Ironic coming from someone who listens to auto-tuned shite.

  • needs some cowbell

  • @yourscumbag That is f-ing funny! Who'd remember S&L and the infamous Christopher Walken? Would love to hang out with CW, Steve Buscemi and David Lynch together in some sleazy bar here in New Orleans. What a night that would be...

  • uhh...thats singing?

  • Wow Shane Macgowan CANNOT sing! THis just shows how much better EVERY other singer in this video is than Him!

  • @hellowrockview Maybe.

    But keep in mind that it seems he's lost most of whatever teeth he still had from when he sang better.

    Regardless, it still sounds good, and fits the song a bit.

  • Wow Shane Macgowan CANNOT sing!

  • That Mick Jones on the guitar?

  • @dwongv1 YEAH! HE'S AWESOME! XD

  • Johnny needs a shower.

  • @tsuruchitetsuo johny is the coolest guy ever

  • wheres stephen hawkings? that would have made this song complete

  • @marklfc07 why? cause they are all geniuses?:)

  • LOL

  • This is way too sexy. I love it !

  • That is Edge's guitar Johnny is playing.

  • They should raise some money to put some teeth in Shane's mouth.

  • @bricitybrac i think shane got a new set a pearls. but he may have rotted those away already too

  • Mr Depp has played guitar for a long time, he wanted to be a rock star, he played on Be Here Now with Oasis back in '97

  • @pauljrchef he also played on Shanes first solo album The Snake. And directed and starred in the video for one of the singles from it.

  • so johny depp plays the guitar?

    

  • @topbluffa1 yea, when he was kid his mother bought him first guitar, he want to be a rockstar :)

  • @topbluffa1 if you have seen the film chocolate with him in it he actually plays the guitar in the film

  • oh my god! Paloma Faiths voice is so powerful! i love it
