  • It's Johnny B Goode actually, it's a persons name but good video though!

  • cool*best song+best band=best cover with the story(maybe better cover Marty Mcfly from Back in a future

  • I cannot tell you how much I love seeing these guys keep this music alive.

  • Shut up and enjoy the music.

  • amazing cover ♥

  • @wolfboy875 really? This is about the same speed chuck played it at, and we played it faster when iI was in high-school for pep band

  • Where was this at?

    Does anybody know, ive seen other covers that they did like blizkrieg bop(i think thats how you spell it) and it was at the same place

  • love this version but Marty played it best :P

  • It was a little to fast in my opinion but other than that it was good

  • This version and the Sex Pistols' version are the two best. Green Day for the actual musical aspect, and the Sex Pistols because Johnny Rotten doesn't know the words and just screams incoherently

  • lol Billie's face @ 0:13

  • Why does everyone cover this song...?

  • @AstroMovieStudios

    because its fuckin AMAZING

    hands down one of the best songs in rock and rool & possibly music in general

  • @diverrr1 Can't argue with that...

  • Anyone who says Green Day murdered the song only because they covered it, is an idiot. I also play this song sometimes on my guitar and sing to it. Is this murder too? You really think nobody except Chuck Berry should play this song?

  • Onee Step To Freedom (8) Busquenloo

    ALBUM INEDITOO!

  • Hey, click on my channel page to see my bands cover of johnny b goode :D, Thanks and keep Rockin :)

  • Wow what a song didn't know theyplayed this song though wow

  • its not bad but the original is 1000X better i like this one though

  • I love this version!

  • No matter how well anyone does it, no one beats Marty McFly!

  • @ComfortWipe32 micheal J fox

  • Green day the Modern Rockabilly band remind of the Stray cats!!!!!!!!

  • At the crowd's reaction, I bet half of the audience were like, "what the fuck is this?" Silly Green Day fans.

  • BJA puts MJF to shame

  • 1,366 people weerent ready for that, but there kids are gonna LOV IT !! (back to the future)

  • the song isn't good for a pop punk style. i like the hendrix version the most, and i like the original too

  • Hard to belive Buddy Holly sung this too.

  • @Jabraski10 Nah, I could trash talk them all I want.

  • Chuck Berry - Phenomenal

    Motorhead cover - Amazing

    Judas Priest cover - Great

    Green Day cover - ... Terrible.

  • @pepsino11 mother fucker go troll somewhere else stupid fuck

  • @pepsino11 oh come on its not terrible at all. motherhead sucks on my opinion(like band) BUT that s my opinion so don troll plz.

    by the way this one of the best cover i seen so far

  • @Jabraski10 Mind you I was 12 when I made this account.

  • questa versione rock è forte!

  • @Jabraski10 Dude! I know. It was meant to be a joke.

  • 1,361 PEOPLE DONT KNOW WHAT ROCK IS. THATS RIGHT, I SAID IT.... FAGS

  • I dont like it at all

  • never will as chuck

  • why he have the guitar in the leg? LOL. patetic.

  • Listen to the first single from our upcoming EP „TV Reality“ /watch?v=KQ_BW9HicSM You can download it for free at our website! (link in video description) Pop Punk's Not Dead!

  • thats song is awesome i like it very much

  • chuck berry was the only black singer who do tolk wi gramma an pronounciation like dat shit bout dat dancefloor and how baby gots herselves a booty dats hot. thats why he is extra famous

  • Chuck Berry is the greatest at this song no cover even compares

  • I dont understand people, if your gonna hate on the video, and the band, why click on it and watch it? lmfao you're all retarded.

  • @TheGrouch93 Because we wanted to hear the cover? They possibly could've done a great cover, but nope...they made it into some crappy pop-punk song.

  • they fucked it.. they fucked the song up.. I hate green day now

  • @Nickmorama bitch fuck you, no one gives a shit about what he said a year ago, infront of over 20,000 people, and nervouse as hell, he wasnt thinking when he said that, so fuck you

  • I prefer the original 50s style, but it's stupid to say that Green Day murdered the song or that they suck. It's a punk re-interpretation. it's just different.

  • @Podevarius Too bad green day arent punk eh?

  • green gay

  • @chillaxer1993 Fuck YOU !!

  • Chuck Berry !!

  • Slaughter

  • epic song

  • Way to fucking murder a song.

  • this just dosnt have the same effect as when u hear the original aka. it didnt make me smile and say damn that sounds good

  • Tre's a machine.

  • @jigsaw80puppet He said "once we start playing covers," its a joke, he meant once we start playing covers the shows over, thats why it's the last song

  • @pejfiano Nice argument.

  • did someone say that billie joe couldn't play guitar? well in your face mf.

  • Green Day is fucking stupid. 'this is our last song, unless we start playing covers." Idiot you're already playing covers. Fuck Green Day.

  • @jigsaw80puppet fuck you, you unwanted one night stand child grow some fucking balls and appreciate true music fucking prick

  • @Danthebassist1 Sorry for having an opinion, i'm not 12 anymore.

  • @jigsaw80puppet fuck you!!

  • @jigsaw80puppet That was the point. They were going to play the final song, but then he said he was going to start playing covers.

  • @TheBassdude03 That's fucking retarded

  • @jigsaw80puppet I don't even understand what you're calling retarded.

  • @TheBassdude03 Of course you don't. You're a Green Day fan.

  • @jigsaw80puppet You're really pathetic. Just leave this video if all you're going to do is call it retarded and make fun of the people who watch it.

  • @TheBassdude03 Make me.

  • yeah these song are awesome

  • Hey chuck, its your cousin marvin! Remamber that new sound youve been looking for? well listen to this!!!

  • @SND4Cal Back to the future reference ;)

  • Most of the kids in the crowd probably don't even know this song.

  • Mal cnj LLG!!!!!!

  • 1,347 people aren't ready for this, but their kids are gonna love it.

    Michael J. Fox did it better.

  • @Zander10100

    Ofc 1355 ppl arent ready to hear Johnny B Goode be destroyed by idiots

  • @Belenor Except..every time a band covers it [which is often], someone says it's being ruined by idiots ;)

  • @xunderxdosedx

    Well that is always the case isnt it...

  • @Belenor let me guess, you're a homophobic 14 year old who detests GD for wearing guy-liner, but launders his hate by making dubious claims like "dey only pay 3 cords en all der songs", which can easily be debunked if you looked up the guitar tabs for their songs (especially their later stuff).

  • @homer422

    This. Right here. Couldn't have said it better myself. So many people critique their musical ability, but they don't seem to be familiar with how to play a single song.

  • @homer422 I applaud your wisdom.

  • @homer422 Am I allowed to detest them for having shit music or can you not accept that a band you like isn't universally popular?

  • @JaysGOP YES! The only reason anyone should have for hating a band is because s/he assessed their music and decided for themselves that it sucked. As long as a music listener isn't basing their animosity, for an artist or band, off of image or media portrayal, then that's alright.

    Also the idea that any band can be universally popular goes against the premise that music is suppose to be subjective.

  • @homer422 dude i can't be bothered about what the other dude is talking about but man don't bother trying to prove that they have technical shit because its not supposed to be hard to play its just not the genre

  • @thechannelinsane I'm not saying they're Yes or Mastodon, however the vast majority of people who hate GD make them out to be a lip-synching boy band for crying out loud.

  • @homer422 fair enough

  • @Zander10100 Uhm ok, I love Back to the Future. And I love Michael J. Fox.

    But you obviouslly must be STUPID to know that Michael didnt really sing that.

  • @BrintneyLovesLife Dude,you do know I'm joking right? IDIOT!

  • @Zander10100 whatever. 

  • @Zander10100 i ws thinkn of bttf when i saw the title of this vid!!!

  • @Zander10100 Michael J. Fox didn't it

  • @Zander10100 Michael J. Fox didn't actually play that song or sing it.

  • @ladyraze I know. It was meant to be a joke.

  • @Zander10100

    even the monkees did it better.

    yeah, they actually played it on theirfirst ever tour in 66, not one of them could really play live or at all, but garage rock sound is awesome in it's simple rawness.

  • Cause billie isnt black lmao but most important he isnt kno where near as good as jimi or chuck sry but its true...an they never said negro band its "LEADER OF A BIG OL BAND" learn the lyrics man

  • Why couldnt they say "Leader of Negro Band" like Jimi and Chuck ? great cover though

  • WAAY better than the original muhahaha >=D

  • Great! Sounds good! :D

  • anyone want to see them do a cover of "Officer Krupke"?

  • the way he said "new orleans" crazy

  • @Buddyspencerful He sez new or-lans rather then new orleans

  • Judas Priest rule :D

  • Sad thing is, I bet none of the people there knew who Chuck Berry was.

  • @oikid3 I do

  • @oikid3 you just think, im 13 and one of my favorite guitarists is Chuck Berry :P well all of my friends havent heard of him but i love him :) 50'S FOR THE WIN

  • @oikid3 dude, I have to remind you that chuck berry is still alive ...

  • @oikid3 *is...Chuck Berry is still alive xD

  • @oikid3

    i prefer the chuck berry version, this a poor cover... :(

  • At the end we can listen the start of "Boulevard of broken dreams" 2:18-2:22

  • i just cant stand his voice

  • Unless they start playing covers, they're already doing that.

  • 1337 people hit the dislike button.

  • @springeeljim ?...

    

  • Kinda cool.

  • Hey guess what time its is over here...*looks at clock on computer*8:25! damn, IM LATE FOR SCHOOL!!!:D

  • I love them covering this song!

  • hahaha hes shit on the guiter

  • @Abz90L at least he can spell it. fail.

  • Comment removed

  • @Abz90L Oh really? Can you do any better? Did you see how he played at the beginning? Billie Joe Armstrong is so underestimated with his guitar abilities, he can do so much more than you think

  • @mastashooter1 i can bet any money that i am a better guitarist than he is. And yes, i heard how he played it at the begining,and its utterly wrong. Listen to the original recording and compare. End of discussion.

  • @Abz90L If you're better than Billie Joe Armstrong, then why aren't you in a famous rock band that has sold millions of albums and played in front of millions of people? Yes, I have already listened to the original before this and remember, Green Day is just covering it, not stealing it. The intro he played, he just used something called improv, duh! in my opinion it sounded more awesome than the original's intro.

  • @mastashooter1 its doesnt just take guitat technique to become famous. Have a look at Steve Vai for instance, if guitar technique was the number one thing to success,he would be one of the most successful musicians alive today, but sadly, in the real world, its not all about "music" anymore,and more of an image for the audience to look upto. Fair enough if he tried 'improvising', which i really doubt, it still did suck. And if you think this is better than the original,then you need medical help

  • @Abz90L Yes it's not about guitar technique it's about the music you play which is something all musicians should aspire for. And btw it's everyone's opinion who the best guitarist is, no person is the best guitarist ever. For music today it's all pop crap let's admit that, but for modern rockers like Green Day, people actually look up to them and to their music, which has meaning. What would he be doing if he was not improvising? It's a cover remember? I like this because its the punk version:P

  • @mastashooter1 apologies for the argument,didnt mean to cause anything . We are all entitled to our own opinion, thats true. At least youre not into the crappy pop thats on TV nowdays haha

  • Respond to this video... apologies for the spelling,my keyboard is in a state

  • Good ole American Rock N' Roll!!

  • Goode*

    

  • Half...no actually most of the people there prob didn't know who this belong to and if they didn't then its kinda sad :P

  • i honestly can not tell the difference between this video and a porn video..

  • what a fukin piss band ALWAYS playing covers bring back real british old school punk not this yankie piss

  • @speedycc44 FYI the ramones hoo were american came b4 the sex pistols so punk actually started in america so dnt say american punk sux and if u dnt like it y the hell do u comment on the vid

  • @MrGnrrocks22 But actually Green Day is not punk anymore

  • @GrassWasGreener Dont start this shit on a Green Day video, I'm sick of that

  • sounds like chuck berry with his balls in a clamp

  • I don't understand what the fucking problem is, punk is practically blues 2.0. I love to listen to Lead Belly, Chuck Berry, Muddy Waters, even some little richard, and I also love punk because blues and punk both didnt give a shit

  • lol it's funny because he said "this is our last song, unless we start playing covers" and this was a cover

  • They're just pissed cuz they didn't spell it right. ^^

  • What about Green Day and Chuck Berry bitten by a BUMBLEBEE ?

    Whatch XBOX ROCK Johnny BEE Goode video !!! :-D

  • was this on back to the future???

  • @wepned lol yea

  • 1,332 people aren't ready for this, but their kids are gonna love it. Marty McFly quote.

  • No one will ever beat hendrix cover of this ! hendrix done it better than chuck !

  • I love Billie Joe but his voice sounds like Daffy Duck lol!

  • Marty McFly FTW

  • Thanks, Green Day, now this will be stuck in my head all day!

  • chaotic -- well: the end of a concert... at the least the breaks work, but I guess they could not hear each other welll

  • shite

  • GO BILLIE JOE!!!  GO!!!!!

  • For Pete's Sake. This is a tribute to Chuck Berry, not an attempt to do better, or steal the song.

  • There is nothing wrong with this performance... Anyone saying it's bad can us fuck off, as Green day made this their own interpretation of a great song. It sounded pretty good in my opinion. Good on them.

  • I think every band (atleast a good rock bands) has played this song:D Its rock in its pure form! This is Green Days version and they made it their own style! I freaking love it! but Chuck Berry is always Chucke Berry ;D

  • I think they just kind of played it in their type of music. People need to chill, I like both versions. =)

  • At least they didn't dub step it up or add some stupid shit to it. It's the same notes, same rhythm, same tempo with a little more distortion and billie singing. This is an awesome cover, get over it.

  • FUCK THEM!!! CHUCK BERRY STEPS to GREEN DAY !!

  • @MrJokerska o_o It wasn't a contest on who can do better dip shit.

  • Green day would be much better if Billie Joe didn't think he was British.

  • @RickOFtheJames Hahahahahaha. xD Green Day is BY FAR my favorite band. I love the way Billie sings, but I've always wondered why he sings like that? I love it, though.

  • @RickOFtheJames He doesn't thin his British.

  • @RickOFtheJames what?
