  • Like my grandpap says - "I remember these assholes. They grew up and became life insurance salesman"

  • @SweetJaneofGoth except owsly and leery they dead

  • @SweetJaneofGoth These hippies had courage,many got their heads bashed and some were killed for protesting the viet nam war and for equal rights. They did change the U.S. How many women pilots,truck drivers,ceos,mayors doctors lawyers police and fireman,electricians etc were there versus today?

  • @raiderzog Like my grandpap says - "Tell that jackass if women are doing such a good job why the hell is everybody getting poorer and every corporation more corrupt than ever?" Don't you such luv grandpap? He's too old to give a shit about gender politics.

  • @SweetJaneofGoth All those kids drafted and sent to nam could not even vote,so they had no say in it. 1971 18 yr olds got the right to vote who was the driving force behind that. It wasnt the old status quo. You must be talking about people like Dick Cheney,Gingrich,oreilly and all those chickenhawks who used deferrments to get out of nam but now they want to be war mongers

  • @raiderzog Like my grandpap says - "I knew somebody who went over there and shot the CO when he wasn't looking"

  • great time period.. i made the biggest mistake of trying to live it.. LSD tripping in Haight district and golden gat park is NOT a good idea. too many crazy homeless, and assholes. not a good experience lol... so for those of you that are just dying to visit haight district in SF.. its not the same, its all commercial and its like one big looney bin... for us youngins that wanted to live it.. we were just born in the wrong time period :/

  • @slash53GNR after the collaspe of the summer of love you could easily get knifed by a fillmore black junkie just for a little bag of groceries

  • This is a wonderful mix!

  • I am fascinated by Haight-Ashbury, but all things considered...

  • Today we have a silencious revolution on web . But the american politicians want a law call SOPA .. take care with it ... get down with this Law ... save our freedom on web ... Now our revolution is on line .... Our freedom forever ... fuck the politicals laws.... Ps excuse me my ENGLISH ,im brazilian and dont speak english well.

  • we are still out there.........

  • That's just a silly thing to say-looking for a hippie smack upside your square head!

  • whatever your view it was a milestone in recent social history.i was 15 or so at the time in london and there WAS a feeling of oneness among young people despite how it turned out.

  • No offense, but they look like fucking animals...the 60's counterculture destroyed America

  • @jaruca2007 No offense? lol, typical conservative, I hate this shit but I'm gonna seek it out on youtube and be nasty. Go the fuck away now...no offense.

  • @RockingrannyB Nope, I was just watching the video and they look like fucking animals..maybe that's normal in your trailer park....And fuck you...I do what I want

  • summer of drugs...

  • we are not that strange, we are the fairy tribes, why this huge rift to jump, still we are alive, bridging the truth, striking the peace again between life and death, healing, with our medicines, now the circle of life is more connected, and so the universe spirit revolutes more, comes more in tune with the divine emanation of Wanti

  • this is acid

  • i was there. 14 years old. tim leary got up in front of all those people and like words from a moron who couldnt think of anything to say; tUNE IN tURN ON AND dROP OUT

    WE WERE ALREADY DOING THAT; everyone went..............wtf?

  • Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out! What a legend!

  • The spirit lives on and is erupting all over American now.

  • @ausfoolia1111 I saw the light!

  • I feel weird about this, but I need support, or really we need support. We need to change our system in order to prevent our economy from collapsing. The FED have complete control over our money and they have no government agency to regulate them, which means they could do whatever they won't, short of embarrassing themselves. If you want to take down the FED, visit my channel. There's a petition that needs your name on it!

  • @1dtbimp

    who cares if they control the money, money is meaningless, its just a concept made up by humans. they don't control the earth.

  • Comment removed

  • @1dtbimp Fuck the FEDs bro, all I need is a lil money once in a while to get some weed, and smoke it in a fed free area

  • hippiecommunity.webs.com

    welcome!

  • yeah JIMI HEndrix 

  • Please, what is the music and where, besides here, can I find it?

  • @annysvan The original version was #9 Dream by John Lennon, I believe. That may be a starting point for you to find this. Good luck!

  • @annysvan Also, check the credits at the end of the video: One Summer Dream, composed by Jeff Lynne, performed by Plug.

  • the hippie movement was a protest against societies rules of the times.they want peace when there was war and freedom to express yourself without rebellion, , i was one

  • Hippes were not Naive. Plain and Simple...

    They have the one right idea about this world and that is the Love and Unity.

    Our Economy is going so far, to shit right now that it makes me wish I could go back in time and at least be purely happy one more time before everything goes down hill... Not that it hasn't already.

  • Comment removed

  • yeah prankster1590, all the "muslims" are the same. who are the sufis anyway?

  • Definitely not naive as the sixties did define history and left its print; clearly visible in the society we have now. The sixties broke the mold which was evident in the late fifties, you have the Beats, for example, who were providing the framework for the sixties, among other influences of course. The sixties did more than provide Human-Be Ins, Summer of Love, Monterey Pop or Woodstock, it actually integrated a spiritual essence in music at a mainstream level, in art, and in literature 

  • I hope the muslims will have a summer of love soon

  • J'aime les images.. .. je n'aime pas la musique qui l'accompage sans rapport avec la musique de l'époque

  • To gronlaf. Let me qualify what I have said. The movements of those days did not "wake everyone" to the 'truths" but did wake up a large part of the population at the time. The majority of the people were talking and debating about what these movements were saying. Unfiortunately the CIA found drugs could hamper the movement and started their campaing importing huge amounts of drugs to stupify the people. All the way up to crack. I lived throug those days and saw the changes.

  • It's not over yet!!! Love and peace (still)

  • what is the instument called at 0:51

  • @bonkwesha88 its a sitar

  • Amazing the strength of the reactions caused by a bunch of people simply dancing and having fun. But then, we kind of suspected all along that it would shock everyone.

  • Jimi Hendrix was not one of your kind. For he had real talent, which he contributed to a cause outside of himself until he was killed by a hippie.

  • To Review Your Choices 75: after doing considerable research on why our society "turned out to be They changed it into the world we're living in now: egocentric liberalism overkill. Well done" I can firmly tell you that it was not the Hippies that turned the world as you describe it. To further understand you should look up "The Century of The Self" and discover Edward Bernays.

  • god bless the gays. thats all whos left to SAAAVEEE US....honey !

  • I would have been the happiest person ever if I had been born in 1947 and died in 1992 or something, I just so badly wish i'd been alive for that time. now, at least in britain everyones becoming more and more serious, half the country is pensioners and the worlds probs never gonna be fun again... just too bad i was born 1996, I would have KILLED to be alive then.

  • Turn on, Tune in, Cop out.. Stupid grey haired old fool.

  • The Hippies and all the other movements of those times were not naive. I lived through it. They did change the world. Maybe not as much as they would have liked to but they achieved many fantastic goals. One of which was to end the war in Vietnam. If it weren't for the Peace movement the war would have gone on much longer. The 60's changed many things in our culture, music, peotry, art, afety awareness, economic awareness, US Foreign Policy awareness and more. You must to be Naive not see that!

  • @vanderbiltst

    You're right. They did change the world. They changed it into the world we're living in now: egocentric liberalism overkill. Well done.

    P.S. Should you ever run into Vietnamese people old enough to have experienced the war there, don't tell him it was pot-smoking students with a bad taste in music who defeated US aggression in Vietnam. Your point would be lost on them.

  • @vanderbiltst no they were not, its kind of oxymoronic to think anyone would have thought that. that movement coupled with others was an awakening of truth to the world and how things really worked. todays youth are facing the same level of a threat to their civil liberities but have become so indoctrinated with lies and falsehoods that they will not fight for their right to eat good clean healthy food, take a plane without being molested. etc...

  • @vanderbiltst U 4GOT US EARTH PEOPLE'S PARK PPL. THEY PUT ME AND MY MISSES UP IN NYC 4 FREE. WONDER WHERE THOSE PPL ARE TODAY?

    IF ANY KNOW THEM LET ME KNOW. TY :)

    PEACE AND LOVE 4 THE EARTH!!!

  • a beautiful mix of Jeff Lynne's masterpiece. thanks for posting!

  • j aurai tant aime vivre cette epoque!!!!

  • it makes me so sad....

    naive, indeed...so what???

  • @nick40nick40 just keep on keeping your head in the sand... why raise it now? :))

  • @Rawego it seems that there is some reason! :))

  • love it <3

  • I'm so so very sad to have missed those days, now I'm forced to move along with this generation, I'm really just hoping we go back, but it will NEVER EVER be what it was, and I missed it, grew up with parents who seen it, and wore the clothes but never did it, call them selfs hippies but dont know the meaning I would do anything to go back really...

  • ik hou hier wel van...de muziek en vooral die video...die vrijheid van toen......moet eigenlijk nu ook wel kunnen maar ja de wereld wil niet........maar de music is nice...very nice!

  • WAR WILL GET AT ITS GUNZ AND SHOOT flowers

  • @oto24680 Fuck yeah man!!!!

  • @thediegoxxxx

    YEAH MAN!!!!!!!!!

  • back in the early 60s with the whole LSD thing, it made us want to rebel against our elders and the traditional conservitave ways of the 1950s (my teen years).... is it so strange that our children rebel against us? all of us young adults in the 60s started the idea of thinking for ourselves and rebelling from "the man" except now some of us have become that dictatorlike parent that they themselves wanted to get away from..... are you one of them?(withinyouwithoutyou fadeout)

  • hippies ah, my fucked up generation,,,we're still paying the price for our narcissistic lives...

  • That part in Nice Dreams when Tim Leary gives them the "key" is funny ... about 67... For some reason whenever I watch Woodstock footage or read about the hippie movement or even when I listen to music from that era, I get a sense of despair. All those people with so much momentum and idealism.... but what is there left to show for it except for nostalgia... ?

  • nice one thanks for the upload - must say that the original is a toiuch better though

  • Is there no end to the Chuck Mangione sightings @ :36???

  • the good old days. peace man!

  • the government = zionists killed LOVE ending with lennon

    but the revolution cycle begins once again

    .

    love.truth.universal_conscious­ness.peace

  • peace, dude!

  • i jiggy jiggy this !!

  • I don't like what you've done with a good song, so I just turned the sound off (my taste runs more towards 'Gold'). Good vid tho, so thanks for that.

  • I took LSD recently and was shocked that " all is one" and that we are seemingly GOD under the 'self ' or ' ego ' ANYONE ELSE BEEN THERE?

  • @ausfoolia1111 Indeed! 43 years ago, and most recently 40 years ago. You'll find time to be a great imposter.

  • @ausfoolia1111 dissociative solipsism. psychological state. i dont know how similar that is to what u said. but thats what i been thru.

  • @ausfoolia1111 Absolutely...a beautiful state of awareness...Blessings

  • @ausfoolia1111 hey man ... i`ll been there brother ... love you all

  • @ausfoolia1111 LSD just turn your brain upside down. Everything that you saw is not real, it´s just that your brain is confused. Don´t fall for drugs. And yeah, i´ve been there.

  • i really wish i was alived in the 60s...all the free love and believing we could change the world. there was so much hope for the future. but that's all gone now.

  • I was born in the Summer of Love.

    June 1967

    I have

    Turned On

    Tuned In

    Dropped Out

    I was there.

  • @wenn607 I was born in June of 1967 too....Ahh,,,I remember like it was yesterday....LOL

  • the video fits the music like a glove !

  • can some one explian to me what exactley is the summer of love? i know its a bunch of people coming togethor but for what and stufff

  • this is george looking to the east go fuck yourself

  • Please remember this is based on jeff lynnes music of ELO who in my opinion is just pure genius

  • i was only 4 in the summer of love...

    but the music still catches up with me.

  • i made a copy for the future ears to hear, this is to good to risc (permanent) deletion by YuoTube.!

    ELO... IS or ARE the new BEATLES

  • no techno 

  • this is great, i have to keep this one.

    ill better mak a copy of it before it gets flagged.

    nice beat.

  • I remember those years well. It was then when I had a naive notion that LSD would change the world for the better. As it turned out my best friend who was five years older than myself took a trip from which he never returned. He was a latent schizophrenic. For this reason I am in agreement with Dr. Albert Hofmann when he said that a person must be mature and have a solid relationship with reality before going on a trip. Minors and people with developing minds should not trip.

  • Peace and Freedom xD

  • wrong song. you shuda used white rabbit - jefferson airplane

  • Without naive dreams, no world can be ever changed.

    We are now seeing, in our times, what does it mean to have no dreams, no perspectives, no hope, no future.

  • now in the summer of 2010 the young people are slaves to the will of the evil governments

  • Major Miracles, the last of the hippie superheroes, loves this video. Hippies forever!

  • Comment removed

  • Damn, I really wish I was 15 back in the 60's or 70's.

  • @imnhappyland i feel the same way

  • Summer of VD is more like it

  • good video,apart for the music....something from "the era"would've been more appropriate.

  • that old fool what a total geek leary was. those hippie/freeks ought to be ashamed of themselves the ones still alive i mean

  • @atfatw ...... you're a jerk !

  • Where did you get the video footage?

  • Hippies are worthless

  • "Tune in, turn on, drop out"....It was that message By Leary which brought much death by drug overdose, suffering and a nations decline. I know. I was there.

  • A work of art! = )

    My boyfriend lived in the Haight and it's one of the reasons I adore him. Thank you for this ray of sunshine.

  • Oh I may sound really uncool here bcos I'm too young to remember the 60's but drugs are for people who don't feel strong enough to change the times without chemicals. I'm all for peace and love and great music but drugs are a cop out but maybe I'm just too young !

  • Love the song and the video, it's really cool and makes me feel relaxed and happy in a funky way!

  • thanks guys, i'm new to this whole deal hehehe. microdots?

  • no habra nada komo los 60s, la decada de la verdadera buskeda de amor y paz de una generacion hambrienta de estos 2 conceptos k pueden darle al mundo el mejor ingrediente k necesita, buena suerte...

  • what is the square drug called?

  • @samsamdamagicman

    hey man they used to put lsd in sugar cubes cos they would lose there tabs and microdots lol.

    peace.

  • That's an LSD sugar cube.You should try it if you are apart of the new generation or rebels

  • @MindGamesForAll sweet as

  • soon the second rising comes

  • @xerinx24 I agree....the only zeitgeist that can save the planet. Don't let the times change your spirit, let your spirit change the times.

  • @xerinx24

    i cant wait

    i want to start the new revolution of the hippies with many other young people like me

    i hope the 60s repeats its self but with moden inflants making it grooveyer

    and it said the future will have holograms , imagine rainbows with colurfull flower power at the end came jumping out of computers and tv screens, and other media

  • @xerinx24 i hope sometime soon

  • @xerinx24

    NEVER FUCK HIPPIES TUPAC FOR LIFE

  • @xerinx24 we are already on the third summer of love my friend

  • @xerinx24 Ya acording to time wave zero it will come in october of this year! cant wait!!

  • @127miles

    Would you mind if we kept waiting for a bit longer? Let's say, 5.000 years?

  • @xerinx24

    I gotta admit, I believe you're right and it scares the shit out of me.

  • il riusultato di anni di innaggiare a regole comuni forti paralleli ad uno sviluppo dell libertà individuli è scoppiata nella voglia di uscire dagli schemi fatta carne

  • Hugs are for free. Caring about each other, as a 'strange new approach' to the 'evolved monkey', us.

  • The youth movement was a rejection of the global might-makes-right culture of kill thy neighbour for his wealth. It was an artful statement by the strong educated youth to the war culture: "You are filth and comedy" - and the whole the global intellectual base heard them, and agreed. They VERY much changed the world - along with others crying the same melody of 'oneness, or tragedy'. Now? Russia is changed, and many other peoples' groups. Few countries today do not want "piece and love".

  • this was a magical time; briefly; the media and tourists came in and ruined everything; and the hard drugs and crime made everything crash and burn....all they wanted was for everyone to love one another--they weren't just a bunch of dirty greasy hippies...they wanted another way to make the world a happy place...a positive time....now the ones that remain had to change from those free-spirited ways in order to survive nowadays...

  • Hey Kids-Summer of 1966 was the real summer of love in SF before they Hype & tourst want-to-be's showed up.

    To quote some one else who was there.

    Bob Weir of The Grateful Dead.

    "The Summer of Love was pretty much the death knell of what was happening,

    of the little renaissance that we had in

    San Francisco in the mid-1960s,

    If you ask anybody who lived in the

    Haight-Ashbury before the Summer of Love, theyll all tell you the same thing."

  • I would definitely want to be apart of that. Rather than be some tight ass in a suit. Possibly many turned into a tight ass in a suit. But hey, atleast they had a time where they actually lived.

  • best summer ever!

  • hey theres your dad in his underpants

  • Good video..But you should of used Jimi Hendrix or something like that for the music.

  • True, I must agree!

  • Richard..LOVE your interpretation of this song. Very neat....makes me want to let my hair fly in a convertible heading for the open highway

  • I do really like your video.. The music is growing on me NOW !........ Keep it up great job ! Great mixing hope you do more ..Peace and Love to all..

  • Thanks:) only kidding in my reply to your earlier comment., all comments appreciated. Been listening to your TRANCE LOVE AIRWAYS live. very nice vibe:) I'll check out more!

  • Love that music...what is it please???

  • Hippiness was the gradual blooming of a wonderful idea...but sadly doomed to flounder ,corrupt and fail most especially because of the heavy drug experimentation. The drugs made people think that they were expending out but in fact were crashing inwards. Sadly,hippiness did not lead to happiness. Ironically most of the survivors of that era form todays young seniors who pretty much sold out in the end to everything they were against

  • @missionfarstar All I can say is "you're wrong" I WAS there. And I wholeheartedly DISAGREE.

  • @missionfarstar yeah, they grew up like, Nancy Pelosi, um, I mean like Michael Moore,,, Linda Ronstadt- wait maybe they didn't grow up but they did get old and fat

  • @missionfarstar no they havn't plus some of the top scientists of today all use psychedelics like Dr Kary mullins noble prize winner for the invention of P.C.R and theres loads more

  • @missionfarstar In reality, it was a massive number of young demented WASP assholes strictly adhering to the edicts of Kike social scientists.

  • @missionfarstar its gonna happen again, i can litterally feel it happening, (and no im not on drugs) a "hippy lifestyle" is gonna uprise again, jus look at wats happening in america today, its similar to the 60s only its alot worse.......i bet the second rising of hippies will be alot more diverse than it was in the 60s......and there will probably be less drugs, usually people learn from their mistakes you know

  • @arab3515 Sounds awesome but, I'd still hope for drugs. Nothing harmful, LSD, shrooms, Marijuana, the good stuff.

  • @imnhappyland Well if you think about it, the drugs ended up being to downfall of the hippies

  • @arab3515 ...boy I hope so...I really do. It could be so wonderful. We can still save most of the planet.Love is the answer

  • @missionfarstar

    not me baby, i still wave my freak flag high!

    cool vid

  • Nice video ,, Wrong music though

  • My video... so it's the right music :)

  • your right

  • I'm glad all those greasy ole' "hippies" are gone. They weren't nothing but a bunch of dope smokin' rebels. Back in my day, we were doing the Charleston.

  • Shut up u old fart lol hippies r cool and ur not

  • The hippie generation created the foundation for all music that were produced after 1969. Of course influenced by all music that were produced before 1966.

    It´s just the circle of life and I remember this era as very positive besides of all victims of heavy abuse. So to all of you old hippie friends that didn´t make it:

    R.I.P.

  • i love being hippie

  • Is there anywhere I can get this song?

  • There were a lot of people that did not survive the trip. The big bummer was, a lot went back to school and came out worse than the establishment that they rebelled against. They ruined the economy with their selfishness and greed. Did away with pensions etc! It was still a good time!

  • Love can't change everything, but it helps.

  • this is george when he was looking to the east and golden gate park hippies were on their knees

  • This is jeff lynne of ELO not george harrison.

  • its like raves!

    lets make raves take over like this! :D

  • no, raves are lame.

  • @candybeetch213 come to california, raves have taken over, but there is no message behind the ravers, there is just drug use and over embellishment in music

    Save for the overuse of drugs, it's kinda nice

  • ziemlich schräge zeit.. aber GEIL!!

  • wär schon gern dabei gewesen :D

    die weiber sahns hcon geil aus :D:D:D:D

  • ja schade dass´ schon vorbei is...

    und bezüglich der weiber muss ich dir wirklich recht geben. die hatten scho ihre reize ;))

  • its a sugar cube drizzlet with liquid acid
