Paul McCartney - Freedom (Nobel Peace Prize '2001)

[IrtuBR]

LIBERDADE!!!

[njrox1317]

@drrobertoboogie97 I will pray for you, that God works on your heart to help you understand that with Him everything is possible....God makes the impossible possible......I hope you will take this from my words....Christianity has a history book, the Bible, if you haven't read it, I recommend that you read it. It will give you peace...God bless you :)

9 people don't want to fight for their right for freedom

[HaWkBeAtLeSnElSoN]

did paul really apologize for this song bc people said this was offensive?i dont know why,its not one of my favorite macc songs but why did people take this as offensive?

[aldrichramirez1996]

9 people can't stomp and clap

[Sonyag1]

I love me some Paul McCartney.....

[ALIYASEXYGIRLNUMBER1]

I WISH POL MCRATNEY HAD BEEN FUKIN BLOWN UP

[themeisner14]

I HAD to listen to this today, since it's about 9/11 and it's the 10th anniversary

[gdesorcy2009]

must have taken minutes or years to prepare these lyrics, pleeeaaase....

[thenowuk]

@gdesorcy2009 This song is terrible,it's a complete dirge. He tried to write an anthem ala-Lennon's 'Power to the people' (even used the same marching feet at the start of the recording) he's always competing with lennon's legacy. Unfortunately for him, nobody bought this song and it sank without trace,forgotten. I am a McCartney fan but this is possibly the wrost song I've ever heard by him. Cringe inducingly bad,so contrived, an embarrassment

[iTzaEvilTurnip]

@thenowuk i really dont know what else to say but fuck you. you can go burn in hell for all i care. who cares if alot of this is taken from john lennon's ideas? i dont know if you got the memo but they were in a mildy popular band together. (btw thats sarcasm, i pointed it out in case u were too stupid to notice) but honestly, i hope you dont say you're loyal to your country because if you have, you lied. in america we were promised "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" and all that paul

[iTzaEvilTurnip]

@iTzaEvilTurnip is singing about is that we have a god given right to those unalienable rights. who are you to hate on this song? are you saying that we dont deserve those freedoms? if so i hope you a sadistic bastard who likes fire because when you go gently (or not) into that goodnight all you'll feel for the rest of eternity is fire. we are americans and we are free, come try and ake that away!

[thenowuk]

@iTzaEvilTurnip you're so dumb and offensive-I can't wait for you to construct an argument-that it's just not worth getting into an argument with you. When at leat two of your amoebas get together come back to me

[iTzaEvilTurnip]

@thenowuk frankly, your the dumb one. its not worth getting into any arguments on youtube, and i never have, and i dont intend to. i simply resonded because im proud to be an american and its people like you who disrespect our country that infuriate me. your the depressingly unitelligent one here. so go suck a sack

[thenowuk]

@iTzaEvilTurnip How can not liking a song be direspecting a country? I never once crtiticised any country? I'm not even American.You need to get some perspective in life. You're doing your country a diservice by being a fucking moron!

[12ut5]

6 people don't like freedom. Must be Taliban or al Qaeda.

[eastariel]

America is plagued with problems. We're nearly bankrupt, we're at war, Monsanto seems more dangerous than all the terrorists combined, jobs are scarce, the economy is weak, and many of us feel like we're losing our own country.

But we're FREE! And because we're free, we can fix these mountainous problems. These mountains seem so big when we act as individuals, but when we're one nation united, they shrink down to golf ball size.

All it takes is all of us doing everything we can to save America.

[razorbob13]

@eastariel Now, if everyone knew that. Education and Freedom... That's all we need (besides Love XD).

[willuvyou]

True freedom comes with responsibility...

[CivilisedHumanity]

@willuvyou A price too.

[WilB1972]

This song is not about peace and love: "I will FIGHT for the RIGHT to live in freedom." -- long way from "Give Peace a Chance" and "All You Need Is Love". But I love Macca and all the Beatles. Rock on, Sir Paul!

[TheMilagros59]

LIBERTE'

LIBERTAD

FREEDOM



[gumshoesoul]

If you hate this song, well what can I say...

[asker014]

freedom of the world peacceeee.

[Ylviste]

A dreadful song, but it's Paul so I forgive hime.

[Worldxian]

Best of the best !!

[issackool4evr]

what an awful song. i looked this up after hearing it in a grocery store. i seriously thought it was a joke. wow, what a truly awful song.

[boricuaisabella]

paul stop seducing me please i'm not 18 yet

[cookie20030400]

still good love you paul and being only 15yrs (Me)

[Ebonyivorymusic]

Paul is simply the very best. A warm heart. A caring man filled with love. And a catchy tune too. Way to go Paul. And may blessings follow those who are repressed.

[Genedancingmachine]

Well, to be fair you make a valid poi.....nah... fuck off you twat.

[Genedancingmachine]

TWAT

[JohntheBloodyBaptist]

@Genedancingmachine who? him? I believe it is you sir who is the twat!

[Genedancingmachine]

@JohntheBloodyBaptist No, no, Its wrong for you to believe that, I definitely meant Paul McCartney.

[JohntheBloodyBaptist]

@Genedancingmachine You sir are a retard

[Genedancingmachine]

@JohntheBloodyBaptist What makes you say that?

[JohntheBloodyBaptist]

@Genedancingmachine For calling McCartney a twat. Why is he a twat? Because of the song? Do you have a problem with freedom? I for one love my freedom!

[Genedancingmachine]

@JohntheBloodyBaptist Freedom? In good ole USA? Don't make me laugh, your country is probably the most enslaved, corrupt, rotten, brainwashed backwards fucking place on this whole planet. You're the fucking joke of the world babe and Paul mcCartney is a twat, a dozy-eyed, up-his-own-arse talentless twat and lennon was the same just right place right time for those muddafuckas, what else you got?

[JohntheBloodyBaptist]

@Genedancingmachine Well the US does have it's flaws but it has stood the test of time. As for the whole McCartney and Lennon not having talent....come on! If they're so talentless how come The Beatles are the most successful band to date? They're not considered the greatest band ever for nothing.

[NYYTeixecute09]

So i figure since paul mccartney as won every other award for what he's done for music...i think you may as well throw him a nobel peace prize.

[rocsssy]

I am so glad that I'm contemporary with such a legend, a quarter of my all time favourite band.

[wcnj]

Paul the10♥

[starfish50]

Thank you for sharing your story with us.

[MacDragard]

I really like this song. I believe he wrote it in response to 9/11.

[Simonebr]

@MacDragard He did. He played flaming pie fist and told that before the 2 songs!

[Simonebr]

@MacDragard Omg not flaming pie, your loving flame. Sorry.

[njrox1317]

Jesus did pay the ultimate price, so that we could be free from eternal death. And yes I am a Christian!

[starfish50]

@njrox1317 Yes he did, you should NOT forget that freedom is not free, and people like my Daddy,mu X husband and my son, are some of the reason the US is free today. Your soul may be free because of Jesus,, but without deeds such as these your body would be always be inslaved on This Earth.

[drrobertoboogie97]

@njrox1317 Obviously crucifixion is an ultimate price. Therefore everyone who's crucified paid the ultimate price for us in an act of grace and love. Q.E.D.

Come on. Christianity makes no sense. There was no Jewish zombie who was his own father who sacrificed himself to himself so he can redeem humanity from a curse he himself brought upon everyone because a talking snake convinced a rib-woman to eat from a magic tree.

[beta447]

wtf does this guy know about freedom? he hasn't fought for anything

[cesarmeral1982]

@beta447 oh!! look look another little shortly mind!! hi!!! beat447.. you're maybe the most stupid mind on world.. or maybe a greatest jelous guy on erath.. jajaj sorry man.. we can't help you.. what can i say or done to you.. nothing hahahah he's the greatest genius of music of century . and this is if you like it.. but if you don't.. he still the best.. sorry man.. you maybe a angry soldier or something get a life

[beta447]

@cesarmeral1982 Don't call people stupid if you can't spell the words you choose, stupid. Not that your response was even related to my comment anyway.

[manbigus]

@beta447 Possibly but, the music of The Beatles did help bring down The Soviet Union.

[Sodahpop96]

it's so sexy when he holds up his guitar at the end

[Sodahpop96]

yes, Paul, I'm game

[RickyGervaisFreak]

Paul McCartney is my hero, he is a fantastic and brilliant man whom I look up to! He is my number 1 inspiration! May he forever live in our hearts and may he forever be recognized for the man who changed and inspired many, many lives! God bless America and God bless Paul McCartney!

[Kripyvolya]

I will fight, for the right

To live in freedom, ah yeah, comon now... (!)

[hicksi61]

Freedom is a word no one should use without thinking - the only real freedom fighter was Jesus who now offers eternal freedom where people will be free to be the humans they were meant to be.  a man with a sentence of death and judgement over his head can never be free

[linkrazr]

At least the song isn't repetitive....

[MrRyan141]

the day the world loses this great man will be a very sad one god bless paul

[Barney479]

great!

[qqssaa]

first of all god dont exist like santa clauss and segundo this song make me puke !!!

[cesarmeral1982]

@qqssaa well what can we done for you little animal??.. i feel so sorry for you.. this is music if you like this and if you don't.. this still great music ... so.. shut up.. you're a fucking idiot...it's most probably there god exist that you're insignificant life.. so... what do you have better to done that this great music?..

[cesarmeral1982]

@qqssaa and.. to finish.. i just gone to say you something..."Critics are like eunuchs, they can see it, they can hear it, but they can't do it"..get it?..

and please.. first study english.. loser

[SpatialVortex]

=***I wasn't born in USA, but I love my America !!!!!!!!! HAPPY 4th of JULY MY COUNTRYMATES ***=

[TheRaptordad]

I wonder if Paul sang "Freedom" at the White House! Happy July 4th! God protect our  troops!

[themrgdbdy]

FREEDOM!!!!!<3

[TheBeatlesLiveOn]

I like his short hair and Paul himself!!

[scousemclovin]

true scouser!!! love ya paul, yeah man!

[BeatlemaniaMX]

One of my favorite Macca songs, excelent performace! PAUL MCCARTNEY FOREVER!!!!

[abelard87]

freedom or die . . .

[4FabBEATLES]

if anyone deserves a peace prize it's the Beatles--all of them contributed so many songs about love and peace nad non-violence, even today. Especailly John though, his peace songs, peace posters around the world, Bed-In for peace, and more--sadly he's dead-but he deserves to be honored and so do the other Beatles living and dead. Paul is a wonderful musician and kind-hearted guy

[beethoven4ever]

I've always been a big fan of Paul McCartney but I find this song quite disappointing. Well, he's written plenty of great stuff anyway.

[BrawlDiscussion]

has he ever sang this besides doing this live?

[4FabBEATLES]

@BrawlDiscussion yes.The song was released in 2 versions: a single studio version (recorded in Quad Studios, New York), and a hidden track on McCartney's Driving Rain album billed as a live version In the UK, "Freedom" was added to the single "From a Lover to a Friend",

he played it @ the Super Bowl XXXVI pregame show,

his 2002 Driving USA Tour and it appeared on the live album Back in the U.S. he worte it to remember 9/11 he doesnt perform it now b/c its taken to be a pro-war song.(its not)

[musicvideofilm2010]

@BrawlDiscussion He did it on all the U.S. dates uring the 2002 tour.

[tjduhon]

One of the best songs Paul McCartney ever wrote...

[laloisaac]

great song !!!! jajajaj the audience does not help !!!!!!

[caralrexsex]

muy bueno

[gottafriend]

Thank you very much.

[manbigus]

The music of The Beatles as a group and individually is about 3 things, 'Peace, Love and Understanding'. It's what the world wants to hear.

[cap4261]

Paul this is a song you should be very proud of!!!. Never be afraid to sing this song. We are fighting to "live in freedom". And freedom is a god given right, for you and for all of us!!!

[Xenicide]

Just one of the thousands of reasons why Paul is one of the greatest musicians ever and a great human being.

[cap4261]

Paul we love you and thank you for the love that you have shown to our country. Know that you are welcome to visit our country any time. Our home is your home.

[NYCityBoy718]

beautiful song, very moving and inspiring, hopefully the message is clear this time and finally sinks in.

[veron3]

peace in world!!!!

[carolyne4]

Simple song ^^

[elevensRup]

thats right  paullie freedommmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[jamarks612]

God really gifted Paul to do this song.

[jammona]

oh look, Its Kevin Bacon playing the solo. at 2:00

[esmeraldachiara]

me enamore de esta cancion la primera vez q la escuché, años q no me pasaba algo asi... excelentisima!

[Gabyblackeyed4]

Jajaja, pobre le sale un gallo en el minuto 1:10. Grande es Paul, todo se le perdona.

[richardortega71]

Me cae que eres una naquita. Porque fijarte en el pelo en la sopa. Fijate en lo que trató de decirle a tu cabeza prisionera. Seguro eres Mexicana de Mente.

[Gabyblackeyed4]

Yo amo a Paul, sólo me interesó el detalle porque aún cuando su voz está desgastada sigue teniendo el espíritu de siempre. No hay necesidad de hostilidades, existe algo llamado "libertad de expresión", por si no lo sabías. "i'm talking about Freedom..."

Y soy mexicana a mucha honra. :D

[gimpmasterw]
