[mabumanssur]

Hey, I found a diferent version of this on an old single from them(b-side from Never Marry a railroad man). It's on my chanel If somebody is curious to hear that, and with the name of "hear my song", because it was the name in the record

[dali00777]

good thing about this video is that you can watch earth quake victims at 1:05

[penntocali]

Never heard this one before - great tune!

[qdsqd]

mistral is the groupe with robbie van leeuwen, their song Starship 109 was a hit in benelux.

[TheTiglathpilesar]

SB is consistently great. Can really capture a mood.

aMAZING BASS LINES

[exsoundus]

Robbie van leeuwen, de meest ondergewaardeerde gitarist van nederland? heeft waarschijnlijk veel naar The Ventures geluisterd! Geweldige sound!

[BBINGHAM032352]

I have this original 1970s vinyl phonograph album.I bought it in 1971 on sale at Woolco,Centennial Mall in Edmonton,Alberta,Canada.The album still plays perfectly.This is one of my favorite cuts on the album.they were truly a GREAT BAND!!!!

[GOORVY]

[mariskaveresforever]

from this album, called At home, nirvana covered the song Love buzz.

it is realy a great album, made in 1969

[geoproyectoperu]

GREAT GREAT GREATTTTTTTTTTT THEME !

[BohemianConspiracy]

this is really fuzzy it diserve to go to my fave ...and it's a well done video

... What people here think about the name for a rockband -the Fuzzy Funzy- or Funtrial ?... i mean... i'm searchin a good name for a starting band...and they asked me if some of us - close friends of the band...had some good idea of rock n roll names for them...

mmmhhh... it's all depend of the style i guess...

[Khultan]

C'mon, man, now I've discovered that Shocking Blue had alot more hit songs than just 'Venus'.

[diositoporno]

¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡No mamen que rola tan chingona!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dellboid]

top band

[jimlakedemon]

callifornia uber alles . my birth place!!!!!!!!!

[chocolatesouljah]

Shocking Blue! Amazing! Underrrated but loved by those of us who really know.

[GUIDOBRAT]

@chocolatesouljah absolutely ! Thanks :)

[chompychomps]

Simple, yet fat, sound. I dig them.

[musicfreak1967]

katerynHV, am over the moon that there are people like you, who songs of this magnificent band here upload. Shocking Blue had a really great rock sound. Nowadays singers with the talent of a Mariska are hardly discoverable. She looked breathtaking and had a song voice which searches her equals. For you 5 stars from Germany.

[dinkeldal]

prachtig !!!!!

[elvira2262]

song is great, thanks

[Modewarrior]

Same here, but this song became my ultimate favorite from the album. The middle break is one of the best examples of psychedelic tremelo used with triplets against a background of power chords. Very climactic and tasteful. And of course Mariska's haunting voice and the relentless bass line reinforce the guitar hooks to no end. An overlooked gem for sure...

[odoricocarvalho]

Beautiful song and Mariska is wonderful.

[cherylharrell1961]

I have the album of this which I bought in a junk store for 50 cents a few yrs after it came out. Bought it cuz of Venus but the whole album is good. This was my 2nd favorite song on the album...
