  • Ben needs to move around a bit more :).

    Great job though

  • Live is the best!!!

  • go Ben, what awesome vocals and rythym nice bass too. Good effort

  • Eargasm...just now! ! ! !

  • I seen him sing this with Eddie vedder at open'er festival last year it was amazing

  • That's a great song that never gets old.

  • Is that guitar a bit out of tune?

  • @rocknfran i think they just changed the notes on purpose a bit.

  • @rocknfran

    Yes, guitarist sometimes is a bit out of tune

  • Ben's almost too handsome to take seriously-- until her sings. Gave me chills. Love it.

  • wow!

  • I miss Juan Nelson playing with Ben Harper. They complimented each other so well!!

  • Wer diesen Mann jemals gesehen, gehört und erlebt hat der wird ihn niemals vergessen. Diese Kraft, unglaublich, es ist nur möglich das erlebte zu teilen aber nicht zu erklären. Einfach großartig.

  • only a lunatic would dare to think that this is even a cover!!!

    The bass is to slow with no groove, the guitar is a fucking wreck, and the voice of this nothing compared to mercury!!!!

  • @Gamberiniilfodini Watch the original then? If its so bad then why'd you take 5 minutes out of your life to watch such a "terrible cover"? It's called a cover for a reason.

  • how could he assassinate the song? please someone arrest him!!! :O

  • nice!

  • great cover! untill i read the other comments i always assumed it was a bowie song? i think ben is covering that version too, just my opinion

  • you're brutal!! everything you do is brutal!! 

  • Just absolutely can't get enough of this music! Keep pumpin out wonderful sounds, these beats are inspiring me to devise completely fresh vibes! Listen to some more excellent tones on my yt profile!

  • @GothicEeore The aim of this is to show that he likes mercury's style, and it is unuseful comparing versions...

  • wow this is a lot better than i thought, shame Freddy isn't here to sing it himself though

  • I know I'm gunna sound stupid when I ask this but I have to haha. But What is that piece of metal attached to the bass by his right hand called?

  • good band and singer.

  • Great cover for great song by one of the greatest musicians of our time.

  • Very intense... what a passion...

  • Comment removed

  • fico!! :))

  • i think it was perfectly done for a live version

  • YES to the Innocent Criminals. Relentless 7 are nice too.

  • he doent fit the song...more attitude but not a bad voice.

  • @erickmac88

    Much better with Jack Black and Ben Harper singing together, in my opinion.

  • they covered that? havent heard it

  • @yfz01 Looked it up....much better...still though...no.

  • Freddie LIVES!

  • what a cover, alot of heart. great song ben!

  • Ben Harper is God !

  • MORE RELENTLESS 7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Yeah Ben where´s your slideguitar??

    Ok but not bad. It´s something new. But i hope he will get back to the roots and the Innocent Criminals:-)

  • Love Ben Harper and I think the song is ok, but don't you think a Ben without his guitare feels kind of weird ?

  • Wow i love ben harper i love all his songs !! xD

  • Es un gran músico, se entrega y no deja de sorprender, Ben harper, como la copa de un pino !!!

    Grande... ufff !!!

  • Better than my chemical fags and the drug users. Still when a band tries to cover a song as epic as this one it's a little pathetic...

  • @VileSword MCR aren't fags, they have girlfriends.

  • @spogee gerard way is married

  • @brkcustoms Yeah, married, same difference just on paper.

  • la guitare accordée aurait été sympa...

  • great lyrics, Bowie

    great presence, Harper

    Thanks!1

  • ben harper or whoever can sing for shit

  • ¿POR QUÉ NO PODEMOS DARNOS OTRA OPORTUNIDAD?

    ¿POR QUÉ NO PODEMOS DAR AL AMOR OTRA OPORTUNIDAD?

    ¿POR QUÉ NO PODEMOS DAR AMOR, DAR AMOR, DAR AMOR?

    great song great cover, grande BEN HARPER lo maximo!!!!

  • OMG!...Ben please..shout out ! PLEASE !

    poor Freddy and David

  • idk bout the new stuff...still worth it to go a concert if i love the old ben?

  • I saw him play @ Bonnaroo over the weekend, he plays well w/ the Relentless 7. I nvr thought of him as a rocker b4, i thought of him as a chilled guy

  • Nice solid cover

  • Sorry, this can't compete with any version by Queen...

  • why is it a competition? why can't it just be a tribute to a great song by a great band?

  • 2:04 WTF!? o.O

  • ? When he screams let me out?

  • Great song! Queen rules!

  • my daughter love love loves this song!

  • A perfect marriage - an amazing singer / songwriter with a social conscience covering an amazing song with an important social message. Cudos Ben !

  • I saw him last night in LA at the Wiltern - AMAZING SHOW. They performed this song there too... even better to see live. I was right up by the stage. We were all singing with him, holding hands, chanting "Why cant we give love one more chance!" This was a once in a lifetime moment.

  • a beautiful sentiment indeed: "Why cant we give love one more chance!"

    becoming Peace in small pieces,

  • great ben! he plays and sings with the soul, the passion, the GOD in himself..

    he makes me live!!!!!

  • the Relentless 7 are amazing. Go see them in concert when you can. they really bring out a new side in his music, and they give his old material new life.

  • He looks like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson now. I hope his hair, and his backing band, is a phase.

  • esta es una de las mejores verciones que he escuchado de queen.

    Ben Harper and Relentless7 - son los mejores...

  • esta es una de las mejores verciones que he escuchado de queen.

    Ben Harper and Relentless7 - son lo mejor...

  • Que grande que es el tio Benito !!!

  • sweeeet! i am and have been digging this one!

  • Ben Harper never ceases to impress me. He's always reinventing himself. Truly and artist.

  • man if you don't understand the signifigance of this cover then maybe you haven't been listening to his lyrics all these years. totally amazing

  • I didn't even think of that but your totally right! what a true artist!

  • Yeah this COVER IS GREAT!!!!!......If you dont like this cover you prob didnt like the original.....I love that ben take on this song vocal wise......where is your heart peoples this cover rocks

  • I love R7 and ben harper, I even got the deluxe version of their album and I've seen them live in NYC and Byron bay in QLD. Their music is AMAAAAZING! but I have to say that I don't feel this cover of theirs. I don't mean to take anything away from them, their album is wicked. I just didnt feel this cover.

  • just for ur info byron bay is in nsw not queensland

  • Yeh sorry, ur right. Its just over the border, but I live in QLD and I go there so often that I forget its actually in NSW lol.

  • They will be on Letterman on May 6th and Jimmy Kimmel on the 7th. I love Ben Harper with R7, their chemistry is so amazing! They are also all great musicians!

  • This was one of the most amazing shows I have seen since seeing Pink Floyd live.

  • I don't understand the fuss about this cover: this song just doesn't connect with Ben Harper's style. Overrated, disappointed

  • freakin awesome cover!!

  • This version is so moving. Sounds great and hope you put it on an album.

  • he looks like The Rock! xD

  • id love to hear an album of all the songs ben has covered over the years. seen a number of them live, heard some of the others. imo he never misses! 5 stars.

  • ben you ROCK!! just saw him at Blues Fest in byron bay (09) ... the best talent there!! and second place john buttler trio!!

  • Hey, I'll be seeing him at our Bluesfest in July. Can you please tell me if he covers any of his stuff from when he was with the innocent criminals? Does he perform Burn One Down?

  • I saw him at the bluesfest, unfortunately, he didn't do any of his old stuff. Still rocked it as he has a different sound now. I really wanted to boogie to some of his old stuff like burn one down and gold to me, but at the end of the day I think he redeemed himself with Under Pressure on the night. Go Ben, still love you.

  • Hi, when he was here no, unfortunately he didn't play any old stuff, but u definately won't be disappointed, it is still an awesome show!!

  • Ayo was pretty wicked too aye

  • I love this!!! I was lucky enough to see him perform this recently at the Metro in Sydney and it brought the house down! Please Ben next time in Sydney play Strawberry Fields Forever!!!

  • hawtness

  • Pretty amazing. I think he does a great job of sounding like mercury and bowie and keeping the song true to the original.

  • Wow Ben is so talented and pulls through every time...Brave to step out and do something different...Right On!!!!

  • Where did this come from? Never heard of this one...wish they would have played an origianl. I really don't care for ben's singing in this one at all.

  • Thats awesome!! Cant wait till the Atlanta show and the Album!!

  • Cool:)
