  • If Clapton is god then Jimi is his maker.

  • i hate when people wished they were born back in the day, it like shit man the muisc never died, live your life to its fullest here and now, thats what these great artist would have wanted you to do anyway..

  • LOVE

  • This song is great, incredible guitar. I really hope that inspired music like this will emerge and flourish again. I think that what is missing is a real, powerful inspiration in the air that sparks creativity. Our world is so divided and destructive that we can't connect with that inspiration. We need to become aware of the unifying truth of life. Search for "Truth Contest" in Google and click the 1st result, then open The Present. What it says will put that inspiration in the air again.

  • the year he died :(

  • thanks for you opened my eyes

  • I believe that he was very confussed about a lot of things as he got older . Everything became a purple haze after a while .

  • The line should be "none of them along the line know what any of it's worth". Jimi got some of the lyrics wrong on Electric Ladyland version. Listen to Dylan's original for the actual lyrics, although Bob himself said Jimi's version was the best.

    .

  • Who else is wondering why a dislike button even exists for Jimi Hendrix? Something is very wrong here with those ppl who even thought about pressing it... Let alone the 67 who pressed it. Only explanation is they were in such a hurry to like it & accidently hit dislike? Right? Yeah, that's what happened...

  • Esse é Fera !!!

  • 240p... we meet again

  • The music from that era was cutting edge but living in that era was not all fun and games. I was one of the lucky ones who was drafted into the Vietnam war and made it home alive, with only some mild hearing damage......60,000-70,000 weren't so lucky.

  • @1960toid I wish more people would consider what you say more before they say the usual "I was born in the wrong time ...etc" in their comments. Yes the music in 60s 70s era was uber and all. But I think that living at in those years was not all fun and dandy. Also anyone living now has the chance to compare between two eras of music and IMO can even appreciate the older music even more than the people who experienced them first hand.

  • Thank you Jimi

  • I am now fully convinced I was born in the wrong era of music, wish I was born back in jimi's time that would've been the best listening to him live and all other greats

  • @psychedxrockr I think the same thing, all the time.

  • How could anyone not love a video of Jimi singing this classic. The lyrics printed are a bit of a joke, "This is not our FATE" is one, but there are more. If you need the words, Bob Dylan wrote them and they are easily found in print.

  • replying to the other comment...I don't think Jesus was a musician...Jesus is dead...Jimi was probably 10,000 times the man that Jesus was (despite any miracles)...I'm a musician myself who's tried my best, but I don't know how I was even born in the same galaxy as Jimi...

  • @bowenmcconnie stop comparing Jimi Hendrix with jesus, jesus is good, but he's not Jimi

  • ...or he was...but of course people can't let go...if he's alive then he just evolved into brain eating strain of bacteria...

  • sorry for my comment, about Jimi as a black jesus (I deserve to be horsewhipped!!)...I should think about what I am saying...obviously Jesus sucks and failed at acheiving anything good, it seems no one did more harm in the world ever than Jesus, JESUS IS JUST A LOUSY FUCK! sorry!!

  • pop singer - michael jackson

    boxer - muhammad ali

    basketball - michael jordan

    rapper - tupac shakur

    martial arts - bruce lee

    guitarist - jimi hendrix

  • people who dislike jimi should be named & shamed!!!

  • Good song.

    :)

  • lol

  • Music is a religious experience, and religion shall not be confined to the concepts of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, or what have you, because the soul expands beyond concepts. Music is the language of our soul, which is why it's important that you listen, because the deeper you listen, the more you learn about why we exist.

  • sweet

  • Jimi Hendrix was the crossover musician. Us honkies did not care that he was black. He could make that guitar sing.and this was the "physhedelic" age. This was during the racial tension height and after the riots in my hometown Detroit. Nobody has since played the guitar like him..Nobody.

  • Jimi is amazing. No one comes even close to his power. He played both lead & rythm like it was nothing. Not even Eric Clapton compares to this legacy, and EC has even admitted himself he will never be like Hendrix. All the good die young...RIP Hendrix. He is a solid gold legend. There will never be another. Crafted from the hands of God himself... Jimi never actually died. His body may be at eternal rest, but his soul still lives on, just like his music. Long live Hendrix, the God of all gods.

  • For goodness sake everybody arguing, listen to the song! Jimi was about love, not hate. This remarkable and gifted artist is performing for you. Take note, feel the vibe, and awaken your soul.

  • I am in heaven :3

  • i never heard the whole song but damn he's good

  • theres a dislike bar because too many people can't shut the fuck up about why people dislike stuff when in reality its to feed the idiots who make up reasons why people like stuff.

  • The same could said for you not liking it.

  • @johnwaynegacy94 DIE IN HELL FAGGOT

  • @johnwaynegacy94 , you just made the world an unsafe place for you because of that comment...

  • Why there is dislike button? XD

  • think I'll kill 57 people, forgive me, God!

  • Comment removed

  • And this is not our place or fate?

  • Why is jimi hendrix so awesome

  • this song never gets old! :D

  • My friends laughed at me for saying Hendrix is the last century's answer to Mozart. Am I wrong?

  • @playadominical I don't think you're wrong; however, some people have a terrible taste in music and believe The Backdoor Boys or NStink are the last century's answer to Mozart. On the other hand, some people may think Jim Morrison, The Beatles, Elvis, Woodie Guthrie, Zeppelin, etc etc could also be the last century's answer to Mozart. Personally, I think the music released between 1955-85 was the last century's answer because there was so much great stuff released in that era.

  • Comment removed

  • @rhcplover93 anyway i think this is the best live hendrix on youtube. if you know of any better please link them!

  • @playadominical That we can totally agree on. I was melting in my seat when I heard this.

  • i love all of yall and hope a happy 2012 and happy life. Cheers, to Americans and the world

  • i'm pretty sure his guitar had a orgasm.

  • @Zleepy187 Pretty sure I had an orgasm.

  • Always thought he said come and take my herb @ 0:26

  • @1328daviess Strange, my father thought the same thing all his life till' I mentioned it.

  • Comment removed

  • 3:50...longest i ever lasted during sex!

  • I love this song! Watch my cover Purple Haze on my page guys!

  • @alfcoder no, it was a right handed guitar strung for a lefty...at least that's what I remember

  • rock out

  • I was GEETTING LAIIDDD!!!!!!!!

  • nice check out my watchtower

  • In 40+ years who has touched him?

  • i think what troubled jimi (deep inside, as a performing artist...to level only very few conceive) is that his high watermark was set at monterey, and knew he'd never quite hit it again. the set he did there was nothing less than a barrier-smashing excursion into the hyperdimensional vortex of this age kali yuga. nothing before or since even approached it.

  • @egodust11 I love Hunter Thompson too. Jimi is another beautiful wreck

  • @applebmic

    i agree. "fear and loathing in vegas" was a madman's masterpiece! ;)

  • @egodust11 I think that Hendrix's performance at Winterland and Royal Albert Hall are better. than Monterey. Check them out, you'll see what I mean.

  • @RebelThoughts

    i heard a few tracks from ablbert hall, and i distinctly remember "getting my heart back," and i agree it sounded fantastic. i have album from winterland and didnt think it outdid monterey. i guess what impressed me the most about monterey was the intensity of his sound *combined* with his shamanistic visual performance. this is what i should have mentioned in my earlier post.

  • 55 people hate guitars and hendrix

  • This is what youtube was made for.

  • I'd give a testicle and a kidney just to see him live =(

  • jimi can play left and right guitars....freaking awesome greatest ever..

  • Thanks Jimi! Kinda reanimated my view of good music!

  • Comment removed

  • Wow, the subtitles are so incorrect...

  • its "none of them along the line, know what any of it is worth" dig?

  • The god of the guitarrists.

    Rest in peace, Jimmy

  • I need to go finish my xmas shopping, but I can't stop listning to Jimi.

  • @theaelise65 the same here :D but i only got like 2 hours left

  • I love it when Jesus comes as a black man

  • @bowenmcconnie

    F**k Jesus.

    Jimi hated religion, colour.

    JMH #1

  • @freegie27 Exactly, keep religion out of music

  • @museman98 But.. Music is my religion :( Its a very.. polytheist one

  • @FloydIV Music as a religion is allowed, +1internets

  • Comment removed

  • @bowenmcconnie Oh, he's play the guitar very good and all, but he is not like jimi hendrix

  • @bowenmcconnie legal muito bom!!!!!!!

    Da hora locooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­....

  • Music is not crap today, only the mainstream..

  • can you feel the poweeeeeer of music? insane!

  • just watching his hands during the solo is a privelege

  • i just realized that every guitar player who was right handed created real music

  • @BistkitEatingBulldog

    well i just know hendrix someone else??

  • @mtbheroe96 um yeah , kurt cobain

  • @BistkitEatingBulldog jimi was left handed?

  • @Chyaman09 yeah , thats a right handed guitar he has , you see its upside down bc hes a lefty lol

  • @BistkitEatingBulldog i know but you said every person who played right handed, so i thought you meant right handed :P

  • @BistkitEatingBulldog he was a right-handed person but played left-handed on a right-handed guitar upside down, don't ask why :)

  • @alfcoder woah im confused but hey honestly, what would you think if some one could play BOTH handed?

  • @alfcoder Prolly the drugs :D.  Actually I read something on this once. Wish i could find the article again.

  • Thanks Jimi...For your awesome gift to the world..

  • where is love button ?

  • Comment removed

  • the essence of rock

  • my grandparents headbang to this\m/

  • i wouldn't say it's all of our Modern music which has lost all emotion, feeling and musical touch. I'd say it's the chart music of our century, which people who are satisfied by the same beat and a heavily repeated chorous love. If you search, away from the charts, you can find some very talented musicians who choose to shine away from public spotlight. MAJOR love for Hendrix, guitar god. Although very different, i'd like to back up my example of good modern music with The Rifles or The Wombats.

  • Jimi you are the genius musician of the 20 century. That is all I have to say

  • Jimi > God .

  • 2:00 Best Solo Ever better then the Studio Solo *_*

  • @MadaraUchihaMaster1 You got that right.is just awsome

  • I ♥

    JIMMY

  • Eveytime I come here, everytime I press the like button.

  • Jimi hendrix is by far one of the best artists that ever lived!

  • His guitar sounds so clean.. i like that.

  • what gum is he chewing?

  • Ein Song von Bob Dylan

  • pane e jimi hendrix

  • so funky. Did jimi right this song???

  • @hollyp275

    No some wannabe called Bod Dylan wrote it, and his version is terrible due to his awful harmonica playing!

  • @rumple1232001 Are you kidding? Dylan is one of the best artists ever!

  • @rumple1232001 you must be joking???

  • @rumple1232001 Im sorry, i had no idea bob wrote this, to be honest i dont know much of his music which is a shame because of the wonderful things i have heard from people. Ill get on it....

  • @rumple1232001 you fucking basterd. bob is god, if it won't for him, jimi wouldn't have done what he did.

  • JIMI HENDRIX FANS!!! CHECK OUT THE "NEW AGE" JIMI IN CHAD WESLEY BAND!!! YOUTUBE THEM RIGHT NOW!!! THIS IS THE NEXT GREAT BAND!!

  • I had the pleasure to see him in Karlstad, Sweden around 1965::))

  • one of the BEST, of all time.

  • Okay I'll say it. Jimi is a great guitar player and shitty singer.

  • instead of that idiot jim tv with they bullshitcrap muziek , they should make it jimi tv

  • Comment removed

  • the sound quality of those days was not the best, but damn jimmy soundss sooo sweeet!

  • Magic # 27. By the way this was originally Dylan's tune, though Hendrix respected Dylan. To the extent of making a great song and point even greater.

  • I see a lot of people complaining about how music nowdays is crap, no you're wrong about that very subject some of it is crap and mostly if it is that crappy stop whining and start playing. That reminds me i'm gonna go play my bass guitar now, got the perfect song open right now :3

  • Great Idea no more internet tonite. Jimi rocks!

  • I wish i could have seen him. Why must I have been born in 1997? Our music is crap

  • @FlyingCow777 No, you just need to look harder.

  • @hectorthespector i understand there is still quality music being made, just not quite like this

  • @FlyingCow777 97 here too

  • @FlyingCow777 i totally agree

  • @FlyingCow777 Dude......me and you, are going to buy a magic volkswagon bus and go back to 1969, and we are taking Woodstock! lol

  • @FlyingCow777 thats why we need to make our own revolution .respect

  • @FlyingCow777 we both grew up in the same years, realizing what music really is. This new music is created by people who think they know what talent is, but in music, talent is to be creative, different. That's what separates the musicians from the rest of us.

  • @AdrianEVH96 They came into their own by way of imatation just like everyone else.

  • @FlyingCow777 same age, same opinion. I only play stuff like that on my guitar!

  • @FlyingCow777 No Shit Sherlock!

  • @monicafry28 I know rite

  • @FlyingCow777 True :(

  • @FlyingCow777 yeah, I think exactely the same ;)

  • @FlyingCow777 I know how you feel

  • @FlyingCow777 I'm born 3 years before you but this isnt enough^^ .. yeah this is true but if you search you can also find good stuff.. i think the biggest problem nowadays is that theres no emotion or feelings in music like in iron butterflys or hendrixs stuff :/ and this way of making music got lost ... just playing!! this is it!!

    sorry for my bad english even in germany its only a four :)^^

  • @FlyingCow777 "Our music"?.. This is our music! Yeah it would be so awesome to seen him, but his music is still alive :)

  • @FlyingCow777 duuuudddeeee '97's the year bro :) i know how ya feel haha

  • @FlyingCow777 Try Randy Hansen,is the most perfect clone of Hendrix of all the time

  • @FlyingCow777 Your fuckin awesome i was born in '99

    in FUCKIN' GERMANY!!!

  • Honestly, what the fuck are you doing telling us to get off the internet? Do you seriously think that you're more active than any of us because you made a shitty comment on how a guitar legend didn't have the internet? I really do hate it when assholes like you ruin my YouTube experience by putting a Troll's comment into good videos! Jimi didn't need the internet, he was fucking FAMOUS!

  • @toontown13579 are u dumb or what? thats exactly what i was trying to tell you

  • its my time now......... PINE APPLES
