  • whhaaaaat :O ? this is the band/song fatboy slim sampled the 'and the sign says: Long-haired freaky people need not apply' from? woah, and I thought it was from some 50s movie or smth..funny line, anyway.

  • @iutuber1 Oh, no the original is the one they sampled from. It's from the 1960s, so yeah, it does sound close to a 1950s media component. :] Good ear!

  • gift to all that want to be real......

  • ROCK FUCKING FEST IN CADOTT they rock ever year they play

  • tesla rocks fuck all of u hatera

  • Comment removed

  • REPLAY !!

  • FUCKIN' A

  • Hey this is a great cover done by Tesla!!!

  • The sign said "Anybody caught trespassing, will be shot on sight." So the guy in the song gets pissed off and yells "What gives you the right?"

    How about this Sparky, he OWNS the fuckin' property, OK?

  • @rubberweiner WELL Sparky !!!! The guy with the property is a ANAL RETENTIVE and

    A MORON !!!! anyone who would threaten to shoot a member of TELSA !!!!!! LMFAO

  • i bet half of u ppl dont even kno that this song was originally by the five man electrical band and this is a cover

  • @eljeffe6987 who gives a shit. this is Tesla!

  • 12 retards hit the dislike button

  • @cjf7991 yeah there'll be more

  • harrp

  • kinda like DON'T JUDGE ME TIL U KNOW ME !!!

  • This band was one of the first with an unplugged cd in the Rock business. And what a great cd it is!!

  • I hope eveyone knows who this band is named after...Nichola Tesla.-look it up!

  • @dchg58 Tesla was a freaking genius

  • and the sign says you got to have a membership card to get inside... HGHHH!

  • my finger raped the replay button

  • Tesla rules :) !!!!!

  • my left click brought me here

  • HERE'S YOUR SIGN

  • Fatboy slim brought me here

  • YEAH RIGHT!

  • louis ck brought me here. hahaha

  • this song is actually by the 5 man electric band, and that version doesnt curse

  • wasn't this by the 5 man electrical band??

  • @potorox28 yes, but people tend to forget that. I like the original better

  • @MangaFreak0 Same here, I guess it's because I'm used to listening to them singing, and not tesla, so it sounds different. if that makes sense. hhaha

  • @potorox28 makes perfect sense! But what sucks is I can't find the original anywhere but YouTube. The only original I can find is on The Spirit of the 60's compilation CD, but it is cut in half

  • @MangaFreak0 I have it on a cd. It's called essential playlist 20 nonstop hits of the 70's. It's # 11. you can probably listen to it on grooveshark or something.

  • @potorox28 Thank you! I was wondering why this version didn't sound right. It wasn't the version I was looking for :P

  • Comment removed

  • Sounds abit like james brown

  • Saw them in concert and they were awesome..

  • Perfectoooo! terrible banda

  • One of greatest all time bands. Love this song and band. Tesla ROCKS!!!

  • saw them in concert best guitar solo i have ever seen

  • Not my favorite song by Tesla. But I lurve playing it on mah geetar.

  • This is Ricky Bobby,and if you don't like Tesla then FUCK YOU

  • Ok this is the first time I have ever heard of this band or their music, and thats saying something cause I am a music freak. I love it! This is like finding a gold mine for me:)  I love old/new music :)

  • @KristaDawn1985

    this song is a REMAKE

    the original song is BETTER

  • @KristaDawn1985 Just keep it up Krista...There's more gold under the surface than above. Enjoy.

  • wow these hair bands all sounded the same didnt the........

  • @tnafan Well, that was the '80s -- a lot of the bands from that era sounded similar, whether they be hair bands, punk bands, thrash bands, etc. It's like that in every decade, I think. Like today, for example, every band is overproduced and don't require any type of talent like they used to, since the technology will make them sound "good."

  • grew up to my dad playin this song while in the shower wow i love the 80's 90's && most of all the 70's cause of my KISS RAWWWWWW

  • telsa is the BOMB>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

  • These guys still F*cking Rock!!

    Check out my live recordings from they're 9/20/10 concert in WA State...

  • I live in Sacramento, so I can pretty much go out and see Frank Hannon, Dave Rude, Jeff Keith, etc. whenever I want. My parents even went to high school with them, and when Tesla formed, they would stalk them on occasion because they were huge fans. So needless to say, we've all hung out with the guys (even had them come over to our houses) and have really close connections to them all.

  • @TheHellPatrol666 you are freaking lucky!

  • Amazing  Song

  • OMG, my brother and I wore this video out!!!!!!! Every friday night we played the hell out of it......

  • probably the last song from Tesla that I put on here for a while. Now I am off to find some VanHalen

  • @Fragensteller56 The Manhattan Project was named after an 1898 Earthquake in Manhattan made by Nikola Tesla Tesla in Trinity, New York. -Tesla made earthquakes then he made Tunguska

  • Tesla! Just seen them in Bay city, Mi not to long ago xD Best

    band I've seen live.

  • @aaronrushow

    Wow, small world huh? I live about 30 mins from that, royal oak. I don't know maybe little longer.

  • Tesla! Just seen them in Bay city, Mi not to long ago xD Best band I've seen live.

  • Tesla deserved more credit than they got....Lotta good songs....I luvd them then...I luv them still!!!!

  • Tesla Rule xxx

  • Comment removed

  • Tesla is amazing! I saw them live a few days ago. They are the most underrated rock band!

  • im curious to know why tesla, is honestly one of the greatest rock bands yet they dont have as many views as that bieber fag or more

  • @MetalHeadAvenger cause when Tesla was cool there was no internet and everone has the tape of it. and that dork has so meny fans that can use the internet better than there own parents can..

  • Cempaka Putih 7 years a go....

  • This is a good cover of the original despite adding some profanities which were discouraged when the song was written.

  • AWESOME SONG!!!!!!

  • exellent

  • "Thirds, sixths, and ninths, are extraordinarily powerful." -John Keely --- "If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 & 9; then you would have a key to the universe." -Nikola Tesla --- "If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 & 9; then you would have a key to the 333" --Biblical Prophet --- The biggest footprint of mankind September 3rd, 1899 EARTHQUAKE #333
  • Got to love the scream at the end XD.

  • Tesla rocks!

  • speaks the truth. wicked song

  • The best I have seen from Tesla yet!! Great song!!

  • This song has a good point. Everywhere you look, there is an advirisement or a sign. I'm a vigilante graffiti artist against ads. i love this song :)

  • tesla rocks

  • i like Tesla, but the original was better ...

  • Can't you read the signs??

  • I LOVE this song!

    Found myself singing it in the BEER STORE the other day...

    It's awesome anyone who disagrees will be shot on sight ;)

  • Arthur Thomas and the Five Man Electrical Band (1971) were honored by this rendition by the Tesla band. The "merchant" man who tends to put up all those damned signs above their domains are not so honored.

  • Dude, I've had this song stuck in my head for 3 days =)

  • @MeggXurFace At least I know I'm not the only one! :D

  • "and the signs said you got to get a membership, to get inside"....ufff!!

  • just hell yes

  • this is awesome!!!!!!!

  • For you, my sweetie, muaah

  • I agree. So very many SIGNS. Here, there, everywhere! Signs at work, home and play!

  • Awesome song.

  • A big time in my life brought a SIGN that i needed to pay attention, now. So, i did and it was a good thing. Music is what u make it in your mind and WHAT U GIVE beyond that point is up to u.

  • same here!!!!!!

  • BRAVO

  • the song is by bob dylan!!

  • who told you that?? Five Man Electrical Band wrote it...

  • if theres someone on this earth that dosn't like this ,,,it dosn't deserve to live any longer or it should move to a diferent planet.........

  • wow i didnt realise this band was this good. i just met jeff keith today and i didnt even know he could sing this amazing

  • anybody know where i can get the chords for this song

  • this is deffitnly a classic one of my favorites !

  • Thankyou.....

  • this is a classic been jamin to this song for like 22 years now

  • brings back so many good times..i was at this concert,,at the troc in philly.....My brothers band heavens edge always use to play there....them cinderella,britney fox....good stuff..

  • No, not to anybody but you.

    It sounds a lot more like "Signs" by the Five Man Electrical Band. (since they did the original)

  • interesting you woud say that, I was listening to LZ earlier and thought the same thing. I mean, I'm sure they are essentially different with a few notes changed here and there, but if you listen to the songs back to back, they sound similar.

  • MikeyMike377: No but, on some Tesla songs, Jeff Keith's vocals do sometimes sound a bit like Robert Plant's...but without being a rip off at all.

  • the band was inspired by Zeppelin, but they do NOT sound like them

  • wow they rock  i got freddy to sign my tesla shirt and i got his guitar pic

  • so true

  • it is a great protest song, favorite part is the beginning

  • you got to have a membership card to get inside. Epic line love this song.

  • can anyone tell me who origanally wrote and sang this song?????

  • 5 man electrical band

  • Comment removed

  • think it was the electric slide

  • Probably the greatest song in the history of rock... I love it.

  • What if the sign says "GO" ?

  • What if you dont wanna go? haha

  • @ravensbark22 Then you...go?

    XDDD

  • this song is amazing... its such a great protest song

  • whoot whoot hippes rule...

  • This song takes me back... CLASSIC!

  • love the line

    and the sign says anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight.. so i jumped the fence

    why would you jump that fence moron

  • It's the concept that some "moron" posted a sign to keep people out...for whatever reason..it's just the thought of restraining. Listen to the ENTIRE song...not just about jumping the stupid fence.

  • I get that obviously. but still, you don't jump over a fence where some psycho says they will shoot on sight. Even if you are in the right.

  • havent u ever wanted to do something daring stats79? c'mon...u may enjoy it....

  • ium not sure. does he say "fucking up the scenery" or "BLOCKING up the scenery". i googled the lyrics and it says blocking. is this in a bar or what?

  • The original song was Blocking up, but they changed it to Fucking up.

  • blocking out the scenery

  • dabthatcan, your wrong.

    The MTV unplugged version used teh original lyrics; "blocking out" in the chorus and "little sign" in the last verses.

    But for the album version posted here and other live performances they used "Fucking up" in the chorus and "fucking sign" in the last verse.

  • You are all retards. None of you get this song. Fucking brainwashed dip-shit "liberals" and GOP homophobes.

    Get bent, all of you.

  • are you sure this is even your type of music. and about the men nothing wrong with that . just saying, fucking someone in the ass is more acceptable now days than a tattoo wich is legal.

  • Get a grip ppl wtf play FFX hmmmm. I lovwe alll

  • You are retarded.

    Fucking someone in the ass doesn't relate to tattoos in the least fucking bit.

    That's like saying revolting against a fascist government is more acceptable than eating your own shit, which is legal.

  • lol , i like how you added 'wich is legal' just adds to how true your words are

  • awesome song man!!!!

  • This song is timless..

    I guess this should be obvious but 5 man acoustical jam is a play on words for the 5 man electrical band right?

  • @4cellar2door0

    I would think alot of it has to do with the fact that its a live acoustic album, there is 5 of them and they are just jammin.

  • I love their version of this song!!!! I think it is better than the original. :)

  • i agree

  • I think anyone should wear their hair the way they want to. Long hair is great. I see alot of attorney's with ponytails. So what is the big deal.:) why can they have a onytail? and others get fired. cuz they make more money?

  • i got fired for a tat! i was workin there for 13 yrs. so the sign says i cant collect "willfull misconduct they said!"another sign of non acceptance

  • you got fired for a tat but two men can get married and society excepts that. we can bomb and murder people in other countries also we could go to prison for 5 years for killing a state bird. but you have a mark on your personal body and get fired just goes to show that you have know authorative sign in society. ive had this happen to me several times before

  • umm whats wrong with two men getting married? what does that have anything to do with anything?

  • love this song, because we have a lot of signs @ my job.

  • the tesla version is the best!

  • i am only 16 and this is the best music. I LOVE TESLA!!!!!

  • Ain't that a fucken bitch!

  • Heard this band the other day on some random metal show, picked up their mechanical resonance CD the other day and WOW! I am hooked

  • LOVE IT!!!...im only 21...but i grew up to this stuff!

  • this sounds alot like aerosmith. I swore that was steven tyler singing when it came on the radio. =P

  • Signs and Modern Day Cowboy is the best song by Tesla. But This is A Badass Song and if you dont like it the F***K U!!!

  • listen to comin atcha live, the most bad ass soloing ive ever heard on a tesla record man

  • yea i likecomin atcha live i like all the songs on Mechanical Renosaunce

  • This sounds a bit like Black Crows "south rock"

  • well everyone else here thinks your a "bitch ass" retard

  • I kinda spelled it wrong on purpose lol, and if that is the only remark you can come up with for a comback well then thats your problem, and by the way, we aren't fags in this "room" you call, we are here listening to this video/song because it's good music to listen too, your the only fag in here because you come in, say a bunch of worthless crap about tesla and about everone else in here, so your the fag

  • more like ross the retard

  • love this

  • this is freakin awesome!!!!

    without the five man electric band

    this song wouldnt exist though

  • Brilliant remake! Almost as good as the original! I mean that in a great way!

  • who originally made this song?

  • The original version was done by the Five Man Electrical Band. (Yes, that actually was the name of the band that performed the song. )

  • yeah i actually read that in
