  • I'm pretty sure this is the only song ever written over a SCOTUS decision.

    Brown v Board of Education

  • The 8 people who dislike this song need to sit on a cactus. Morons!

  • such good memories...

  • Well "Lowrider 1500 and tylean210" you either didn't listen to the words or you just don't understand the words...they are so far from being racist, one of their drummers form the early years was African American...but of course people like you have to try and start something where ever they can! "Grow up and see the light"

  • Senzationala melodie, prieteni ! Three Dog night forever!!! Amintiri de nesters din adolescenta !

  • one of my favs

  • A classic!  What a shame we don't have music like this today!!

  • the recording is too hot

  • Fantastic song! Just as relevant today!

  • Extraodinary Classic Harmonize band THREE DOG NIGHT recently saw them perform at the CA State Fair in Sacramento and they delivered "extraodinary" from start to finish. Love you Danny, Cory, Micheal and Jimmy (all 7)...'you guys have a very rich legacy Music Career. Thank you for representing your past, present & future: lov' your hit Classic's "Celebrate, Shambala, One, One Man Band, Liar, etc., & your new songs "The Heart of Blues & the Children song" are awesome, you carry your History well!!

  • 8 fucking racists

  • @LowRider1500 hit that right on the head

  • @LowRider1500 do you mean the 8 who dislike the video?

  • we are all colered you might be light or dark whats the problem//????

  • ime going through a shit time in life at the moment,this song has lifted me a bit :)

  • This was my first 45 I bought from my pocketmoney in the early 70's! Of course it sounded different from this version! -

  • I believe that God doesn't care about the color of a person's shell; He cares about the color of a person's soul. I believe that if a person judges another by the color of his (or her) skin, at worst that person is racist, at best he (or she) is as shallow as a '72 Corvette hubcap. One more thing; I think that the concept of white supremacy is a joke. As evidenced by our nation's economic troubles, the only thing that whites are supreme about is screwing things up for everyone. Oh yes,Nice tune.

  • Yeah, My name is Earl

  • @pcepak "I wasn't the best dad, but at least I was a Dad"

  • Yeah it needs more cowbell! They weren't shy with the cowbell back in the day. I love these guys.

  • These guys still sound amazing. I really wish they could one day have Chuck rejoin them, come on guys, put your differences aside. Do these two remind anyone else of Siegfried and Roy?

  • @treetoptop I read where the split between Chuck and the other band members was amicable. As far as I know, there is no bad blood between him and his former bandmates.

  • @rayjr62 Thanks, I never really knew what caused the split. I just wish they would one day all sing together again. There was a certain magic with them all together. Thanks

  • @rayjr62 I got to see Chuck Negron a few years back in concert. He did go through a lot problems with drugs and stuff. I figured it was the reason they split with him. Howveer it appears he is right with things and he sounded great. I was stuck in traffic but got there in time to here him sing Old Fashioned Sove Song/ 60+ but he was great.

  • What happened to the black fellow who was in the group in the 70's??

  • @woitis That black fellow was an awesome drummer named Floyd Sneed. I loved some of the grooves he laid down for the rest of the band. He is still around but hasn't played with 3DN since their early '80s reunion.

  • I love it I am 44 and they are my favorite forever band I love them. A forever make u feel good group!

  • Great song but it needs a little more cowbell.

  • The 8 people who dislike this song have rocks in their heads. What in the heck?

  • Great memories.Beautiful song.

  • OMG he sounds the same I just love it!!!!!!! Take a Lesson youth of today look at what real entertainers look and sound like :)

  • OMG he sounds the same I just love it!!!!!!!

  • Three Dog Night....genialer Song <3

  • god bless, america!

  • prachtig

  • Comment removed

  • What a beautiful song!

  • I can't understand why tremendous groups like these guys don't keep on making music? With all of the baby boomers out there they should be able to sell it.....I know I would buy it.

  • @JOHNNIEL1 if they could write the tunes they would.....alot of the creative writing was a product of the times

    btw tdn did not write their own music like most groups did at the time, they used outside writers like Paul Williams, Hoyt Axton, danny Moore, & laura Nyro.. hope that helps.. i'm sure if a great song came their way today

    they would record it...for some sad reason..songs like they recorded in the day are far & few between ,today.

  • @MOSKII58 That was true of every musician

  • i do that song in music at school

  • every time I hear this song I'm right back in the summer of 1972. I'm at Lackland AFB in basic training. love this song

  • Three Dog Night is the best

  • Comment removed

  • Moe Howard and Eric Idle!  Amazing!

  • "Black and White" is a song written in 1954 by David I. Arkin and Earl Robinson.

  • @michaelsmorrison Correct it is a folk song celebrating the Supreme Courts Oliver Brown vs Topeka Board of Education victory. The lyrics were originally "Their robes were black their heads were white the school house doors were closed so tight nine judges all, set down their names, to end the years, and years of shame" etc.

  • After all these years they still sound great.

  • i got here because of carlton's medley hahaha

  • S' Not rubbish! that's why no one says it IS. Not Rubbish! Power Pop, turn it up or turn it the f%$k off! Idiot.

  • Wow, that was great! Thanks for positng!

  • Love this song... my one of my Fav songs from my early childhood....

  • Few bands ever had the strong vocal from multiple singers. Even fewer can come back 30+years later with most of the same vocalist and still lay it down hard. Hats off the 3 dog night. You have done that and set the bar very high for reunited bands.

    Only other that ranks like this IMO is the eagles.

  • A awesome and very meaningful song! GOD, LORD JESUS bless and interviene we pray that the Three Dog night band will trust you , for salvation, and eternal life if they haven"t already.

  • Hey, are any of you going to their concert in San Bernardino? If so, you should look into booking the San Bernardino Hilton's special promotion for concert-goers. Only $89/night.

  • CARRIE, LISTEN TO THIS SONG..I STARTED CRYING.....

  • where is the guy who sings One? you know the dark hair dude hahah use to have a mustache

  • @Lotsoffun111 His name is Chuck Negron, he's been out of the group since the mid 1980's.

  • This is so Great!

  • I LOVE Three Dog Night! Always will!

    Their music reminds me of growing up in Australia!

    The vocals are as good as they ever were!

    So happy to see the band is in top form!

    And what would they be without that CRAZY and HILARIOUS Jimmy Greenspoon!

    This concert is unbelievably amazing!

    Hey Jimmy, do you remember when I took you sailing in Bermuda around 1980ish?

    I still love you brother! I hope you're doing well!

    Best Wishes, Your friend, Tyrone Reveen

  • Good times! 70s! 3 Dog Night forever!

  • Fabulous song! And gosh great voice too!

  • Live 映像を初めて見ました^^

  • the best!!

  • is it me or is there a lot of buffering issues lately otherwise good song

  • One of the very best bands of the 70's - make no mistake...they could sing then, they can sing now.  *woohoo*!!!

  • Your uncle is adorable!!

    Christo0895,you should respect an excellent talented musician!

    his uncle is a awesome drummer as well as a bassist with high tone instead of Chuck's part...

    without all of genus Danny and Coley could rock!!

    i luv your uncle!! i wish i have an uncle you have!!

  • I LOVE this song

  • guitarist put on a few ....guess that's what happens when you trade in your Les Paul for a Strat

  • Love this song!

  • uuuuuuuuuuy! great voice he keeps!

  • They still sound amazing & the song still rings true today. I grew up loving Three Dog Night & still do!

  • Absolutely Awesome performance..

  • Hot snot, they sound GREAT!

  • My mom always played Three Dog Night CD's as I was growing up, so I got to like them a lot. ♥

  • Damn, I think they're better then back in the day

    A beautiful sight!!!!

  • Incredible! Danny Hutton's voice hasn't slipped in the 35+ years when this song first was released. What a great band!! They played so much diverse music.

    Why can't anybody make music like this again??? Thank you for posting this gem.

  • Great song, love the singers and the drums (my favorite)...wonderful job

  • Love Love Love this song......They sound f*cken awesome!!!!!

  • always loved this song: I'm doing it on the ukulele now & it's great on that instrument too.

  • I'm sorry but there is one missing link here. Chuck Negron. Cory and Danny are great but they need to bring Chuck back into this if they ever expect to be Three Dog Night. But maybe that's just me.

  • Needs more cowbell!!!

  • This band is so good that even I like them...and I'm 12!

  • This is still awsome

  • ótimo som, muitas lembranças do meu tempo de criança!!!!

  • Danny; Come home to Donegal,Ireland ,

    and visit us sometime! We are all very proud of you!

  • amazing how they sounded years later without Chuck's harmony as well....

    they just had so many great songs that still

    have a positive message and vibe even today..

    would have liked to see Chuck with them as well, that's how we remember them..

  • Who cares if Chuck Negron isn't there, they still kick ass!!!

  • HOW BEAUTIFUL!!!

  • wish floyd sneed was on drums too.

  • These guys did a great job on this song !

  • You're never too old to have fun guys!

    Keep goin' fo as long as you can!

    God Bless!

  • Friggin' Awesome!!! Classy Legends!!!

  • första låten på mitt första disco!

  • I was at this concert and Chuck should have been there.  Not Three Dog Night I remember......

  • Yes!Like Red Wine!

  • They just keep gettin' better and better with age!

  • Recently I exposed 4 teens to this song... I was so cool in my embrace of message, era, song, and me! This song was written/sang 2 b passed on every generation.

  • Very true!

  • This song was inspired by the 1953 US Supreme Court's Brown vs Board of Education decision declaring segregated schools unconstitutional.

  • This is a 1950's folk song, (might be earlier), listen to the words - Merry Christmas whatever colour creed or religion. Let's just live our lives

    IT DOSEN'T MATTER

  • Having toured through South Africa twice.. and considering they put up with that crap with well over 3 centuries, and that many of the Caucasions felt that God himself "gave" them South Africa.. lemme tell you... that country has done one hell of an AMAZING job with itself. They could have had a murderous and ruinous civil war and it would not have been civil. Instead they have done amazing and inspirational things there. I'm a Yank, by the way.....

  • They are AMAZING, I roller skated as a child to all of these, this one is an all time favorite!!!

  • I think these guys have gotten better with age. Amazing.

  • Just kidding because I hate race baiting of any form. I detest black history month; the Black Chamber of Commercie and basically any such racist crap. I am fed up with it, and so are all of the white people that I know! I want history taught in school, all history.

  • Actually in S. Africa, Caucasians are nearly 10% of the population, and here in the US, African Americans make up about 14% of the Population. So, that tells me that the whites in S. Africa need to learn how to play the race card.

  • I am of Pennsylvania Dutch or German Ancestory, which no doubt can also be traced to the continent of Africa. You know there are white Africans, too. ah what a revelation. So let us all start saying we are African American who are of German descent, and watch the Black Caucus have a hissy fit. ROFLMAO

  • Danny is almost 70-years old. I can't believe how powerful his voice still sounds.  He can probably out sing 20-year olds!

  • Awesome song. Listened to is all the time way back when. They sound great live!

  • Comment removed

  • I grew up with this song...asn it's so sad that it's still relevent, today.....we're still asking for change....but, it's so nice to see some younguns who get the message....and it' not that the ink is black and the child is white....it's that TOGETHER...they learn to read and write...and they grow to 'see the light'...racism is pointless..a jerk is just a jerk...the rest of it should be irrelevent!!

  • Whow.. Great song.!:)

  • Now matter what they do they can't erase the fact that CHUCK NEGRON AND FLOYD SNEED WERE ALSO PART OF 3 DOG NIGHT !

  • Wish you could hear the keyboard better - its amazing

  • beautiful

  • omg the ink is black the child is white, such a true statement.

  • awesome, this song is older than i am, but i love it! ;D

  • excellant

  • Oh Damn, Danny can still bring 'er!

  • thats my uncle on the drums!!

  • Whoa, that must be awsome to have an uncle in Three Dog Night, Damn, you're luckey!

  • @mindfreak990

    Yeah? Then your uncle is one badass motherfucker... and I mean that in the BEST possible way.

    This is (in my opinion) one of the greatest songs of all time!

    I have already made it known... this song WILL be played at my funeral.

    LOVE...PEACE...HAPPINESS... Zep

  • @ZepZoSoRox Haha fantastic! He was the all state Florida jazz drummer as a kid. He's still a beast. He learned to play from my dad (his brother). great sense of humor with both of them. I learned to drum from them haha. Gotta keep the family line of drummers going.

    And YES! Zeppelin!!! Bonham is amazing!

  • @mindfreak990 KooL! Us drummers have to stick together...right?

    I have tickets to see them Aug. 7th in Conifer, CO. can't wait!!!

    LOVE...PEACE...HAPPINESS... Zep

  • @ZepZoSoRox That we do! And SWEET! They're fantastic live. Hope they rock your world!

    Once again...Love, peace, happiness, Zep/music

  • @mindfreak990  who cares

  • @MrSteveUtah Maybe if you ask your mother really nicely she'll tell you.

  • @mindfreak990 go fuck a goat you fucking pussy!!

  • @christo0895 WOOOOOOOOOOOOW I'm SOOOO scared of a faggot on youtube. Should I call a WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAmbulance for you?

  • @mindfreak990 sure, cuz i would die of a heart attack from seeing a fagot like you, i won't even make it alive. atleast you'll have the dignity of saving a straight man like me... you're welcome:)

  • @christo0895 In what way did that make any sense? You're a moron haha. And way to spell faggot wrong genius. What are you, ten? I've heard better insults from the 8 year olds on xbox live. And dignity is also used incorrectly, so get owned son. Come back when you can get a better insult. Oh, and a faggot is a cigarette, so get owned AGAIN. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • @mindfreak990 WEEEE HOOOO WTF LOL???what kind of ass hole plays in an xbox and insults little kids?? owned by a 10 year old kid according to you :)

  • @christo0895 How would one go about playing IN an xbox? And I said the EIGHT year olds on xbox live had better insults then you, as you just further proved. You're still a moron WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • @mindfreak990 don't fucking change the subject. we're talking here about you being fag, alright... you're a disgrace even to those in the gay community...fuck off!

  • @christo0895 You changed the subject you fucking moron. And how is being homosexual bad? I'm straight as a line, but it's kind of unfair to those who actually are homosexual that you treat them that way and insult them you sexist bastard. YOU are a disgrace to the human race, in that you're one of those people that waste their lives in their mother's basements failing at insulting people on youtube. GET RAPED WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • @mindfreak990 may i remind you that you were the one who insulted me first, who called me a "faggot" (something which i'm not) , telling a straighter man than you to get raped, and calling your-self supposably "as straight as a line", i think someone else is the disgrace to gay people and/or anyone alse in the world...including those little kids playing xbox ...

  • @mindfreak990 you do know that only a moron like you would keep responding to the comments that i post which BACK TO THE TOPIC, make you a fucking low-life stuck in your moms basement...and it is all because...you're adopted!!

  • @christo0895 Only a moron would be so fail at trolling and grammar. And way to steal my jokes because I are impervious to mocking. And I'm not adopted because I got my ability to swim the sky from my father. (And Ben) And how is that back to the topic? I only respond because it pisses you off lol. And I live in Florida we don't have basements. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­E

    HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

  • @mindfreak990 funny how you keep trying to respond with a much better comment, but you still fail at coming up with a better back up to try to insult a kid and no im not 10,im 15! and even if i were 10, i'd still do your mom.and how the fuck do you expect me to know who is this Ben, and your dad who swims in the sky. that didnt make sence in any way! i only resond because i know you don't have anything better to do than to insult a straight guy on youtube,so once again, go fuck a goat you pussy!

  • @christo0895

    Stop insulting each other!

    It is NOT your private battle place!

    You kill awesome 3DN concert video!

    

  • @mindfreak990 .

    Stop it!

    Please do NOT insult 3DN video page!

  • @snow0355 I'm not insulting TDN I'm insulting Christo0895. My uncle's in the band so I'm definitely not insulting them. And this is my private battle arena because I am awesome and freedom of speech is win.

  • @mindfreak990 for reals??

  • @christo0895 Yeah, Pat Bautz. he's my Dad's little brother.

  • A toast, you are still going strong!!

  • When I was little, my brother had this album. I grew up in Little Rock,AR during the 60's and 70's. Music like this I remember today and shaped who I am today, because I was the white child during this turbulent time.
