Angelique Kidjo - Gimme Shelter (feat. Joss Stone)

[Fenizrael]

What's with all the thumbs down? This is an unexpected, and very pleasant surprise.

I'm glad to see Angelique is still doing what she does best.

[oreomango123]

EXCELENTE CANTANTE!!, de verdad, si así escuchando por este medio y viendo sus videos transimite mucha energía, IMAGINENSELA EN VIVO!!!.. gracias a Dios tube la gran oportunidad de presenciarla en un concierto que ofreció para Monterrey, y de verdad no miento al decirles que nos hizo vibrar con sus presencia!... todos bailando, cantando, saltando, ovaciónandola! WOW INCREIBLE!

[AndreCorreaSimoes]

nao gostei!



[sugahoneyboy]

I love this version two beautiful singers ! love it

[frankkelly100]

ANGELIQUE KIDJO WHAT HAPPEN TO U

THIS SONG IS SUCKS

[GetInThaKitchen]

This is fucking terrible, and I mean really really fucking terrible. Leave music to real musicians you fake bitches.

[derekhouston4]

Too upbeat for a song that created an apocalyptic feel...

[nookyyard]

some people just don't have the IQ to make sense of this song

[nookyyard]

Wow! I love It! This song makes the original look 'empty' but well, that is the original and it is a classic so I respect the original. Great song.

[3d3a3v3i3d]

I really like Joss Stone and her music so I will simply try to forget how she and that other woman whose name I can´t even spell RAPE this masterpiece song from The Rolling Stones.......

[glamorouskara19]

u haters this is a great song listen to the message

[fleetwoodsucks]

stupid fucking nigger, she doesnt have the voice to cover this and the music track is fucking retarded as well

[kannemartin1]

@fleetwoodsucks Some music just doesn't sit well with racist, tunnel-vision bigots.

[fleetwoodsucks]

@kannemartin1 I listen to lots of black music. This is just pure fucking shit

[830Smudger]

Terrible cover + annoying twat Joss Stone = turn this **** off....

[jpksocrates]

Dunno why my fellow Stones fans dislike this. Mick & Keith started with covers. This version is VERY different with its afropop influences and is therefore worthwhile for me.

Remember that Keef said Otis' version of Satisfaction was how he intended it to sound.

Lets just appreciate that one of today's few true greats Kidjo has paid homage to the greatest Rock & Roll band of all time

[mmmmmmmau]

arrrg

[666Tormentor666]

A cover like this should be forbidden

[Foxhat134]

*Facepalm*

[sirandy1991]

hhhhoooohhhhaaaaa....bbblllaaa­aaaahhhhhaaaa.... sorry i just threw up a lil...hhhuuuurrrllllll....alot­.

[ayeshabrown123]

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS FOR OVER A WEEK NOW! I'm so happy that I finally found it!

[ramma77]

What the bloody fuck is this horrendous noise i am hearing?

[randomkyle100]

why? just fucking why? you got riped the to fuck off if u bought this song..

[aqu1r3]

am i the only one who actually finds this pretty cool??

[soulmambo]

The racism is unbelievable here.joss stone nothing to this performance. Angelique is awesome. You people need chill that shite u r spewing out. Things just refuse to change huh?

[TheJoeBobber]

This version lacks the soul of Rock n Roll...

[Wieprzow]

what a piece of dog turd :/

[umiduschi]

banana version of gimme shelter

[goldiejewel88]

Can people just type in Rolling Stone-Gimme shelter and stop moaning about this version please? It obviously said Angelique Kidjo ft Joss Stone before you decided to play it and listen to it.

[cobwebb56]

this is garbage , you have murdered a great song,hang your head in shame!

[Bobsaget937]

WTF????? thez MUST erase it from the features...or connecting links....FUCKING FRUSTRATING

[bigBRanKan]

black bitch

[smithyboi1992]

I support Oxfam... But i shall no longer buy my clothes from that shop after the stunt they have pulled

[06random8]

Seriously guys, i know call of duty black ops made the majorety of poeple search for this song in the first place, and naturally you people will have very narrow minds. However, for those of you who genuinly like and appreciate music, even if you do not approve of this music style do not disrespect how powerful this interpretation can be.

[bridgeman1000]

@06random8 what do you mean narrow minds? Everyone is allowed to have there own view on a song and the comment box is where we share them

[BigOldToe]

What the fuck is this shit?????

[matrags]

OH NO NO NO...This is all wrong.

[StPeteDiver]

They butchered the song. Sad....

[rentner66]

When people have no ideas, theyre coverd! What a shit!

[mrdanroxanne]

this song is the reason why the music industry sucks today..

[100tanitolu]

fuck all u haters!

[TheAdamgnych]

@100tanitolu who are you, Joss Stones mum!?!

[100tanitolu]

@TheAdamgnych who are u too?surely a m****fucking troll!!

[TheAdamgnych]

what in the world was that garbage?!?

[100tanitolu]

@TheAdamgnych fuck u dick brain do have to make a comment if u don't like a song assholes!

[TheAdamgnych]

@100tanitolu hahaha, dick brain? and your wrong, i do have to make a comment if i dont like the song, because maybe that way more people will think before taking a massive shit all over an incredible song.

[zigman45]

M.J. Blige with no hair

[karlsie]

Clearly Noble Jones doesn't get it. Freakin' offensive. This is one song you don't fuckin' glam up.

[TheEastcoast19]

Just fuckin killed it, just killed it

[MrDigbert]

What The Fuck

[xritaly]

WTF BITCH

[cheezor1]

wtf is this shit

[guomaster]

Same, I can appreciate this version but please, the original is the only one. It really feels like they've destroyed a classic.

[CrankyEater]

Angelique Kidjou is one of the most dynamic and respected singers in Africa today. If you recall the original Stones version, you might also remember that what MAKES that song is the backing track...Merry Clayton's vocals. While I am less than keen on the heavy-handed references to the Darfur conflict in this video, it's great to hear the tune done by two powerful female voices. I love the Stones' version, but I appreciate this one, too.

[aidenmccloskey]

Angelique Kidjo makes Joss Stone look attractive.

[InvaderZim174]

Dear god screw nuclear war, this is worse - what has happened to the world?? Can't people think up their own songs?

[GrinDEDxXxMetalGUN]

i could shit on this song and listen to rolling stones all day

[rivron69]

wtf is this shit I almost fell of my chair

[letmeloginyoucunt]

dear god

[alihire]

Awful. Even Joss Stone being hot can't save this abomination. Whoever gave permission for this needs a firm raping.

[BeatlesMadeTheWorld]

This is not Mick Jagger.....

[maverick707630]

Hang on I was looking for the rolling stones, what is this nonsense??

[100tanitolu]

@maverick707630 fuck u dick brain do have to make a comment if u don't like a song assholes!

[Batou3]

@maverick707630 it aint nonsense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bubsterfinster]

Ummmmmmmmm. what the hell is this?

[jeromejam8000]

who the hell do they think they are stealing this classic from true legends... bitches rolling stones ftw!

[Stan844]

what the fuck is this shit

[everseekingeyes]

I'd like to say that Joss is hot even though I dislike this version. And whoever says that she would look sexier in heels is wrong imo. A beautiful girl with bare feet is very lovely.

[everseekingeyes]

Why is it that if some terrible war or event occurs in Africa, it gets a ton of media attention, but if it happens in America or Europe if gets barely any? As if nothing tragic and painful can happen in the first world. The original was better because it was universal, not completely focused on one event or group of people.

[hihi100202]

crap.

[KyleJessiman]

This is far worse thatn the Rolling Stones. Pooooooor cover!!!

[PermT]

Oh my god ! This is possibly the worst cover in the history of covers ! Very disapointed that Joss Stone is associated with this crap ! Truely awful !

[TheDolefish]

HAHA I cant stop laughing at this. Music like this cant compare to Rock&Roll. Dont even try >:)

[3Doyle]

wtf is this shit

[shackleberry]

I don`t want to appear to be rude my politically-correct delicate little petals, but this cover is FUCKING SHIT!

[busterrabbit]

No soul, no feeling, just hijacked a great song. Write your own, ah no, you CAN'T!

[Lezenko]

HOW COULD THEY GET AWAY WITH SUCH HERACY. SHOOT THOSE BITCHES.

[everyonesguitar]

fuck me how bad is that!!

[nakigaia]

Good grief, people. It's a SONG with an interpretation by an artist, as if every song doesn't get covered by somebody else. Like it or don't like it and say so if you wish. Why the need to rain down such judgment?

[Yubera2K10]

@nakigaia Because this is shit.

Fuck your interpretation bullshit, songs should be GOOD.

[nakigaia]

@Yubera2K10 I like it okay, you don't like it. That's all there is. The music is the music. You either like it a lot, don't like it at all or somewhere in-between. Music has no inherent qualities that define it. As I said, anything else is a judgment, and how you express your response tells me loads about you and little about the music. Speaking of which - what are you, twelve?

[Yubera2K10]

@nakigaia Okay

Now this song is shite.

As you can see by the comments section it is very much hated.

And don't even start with that "lol u must be twelve xD" bullshit.

[raserei]

BURN IN HELL WOMAN! BURN IN HELL!

[goose3249]

i hope mick has a hankie to wipe all the shit this song just took on the original off

[Gsusresistance]

booo stop remaking old classics and make ur own songs u jerks

[pcooke81]

Get this the fuck out of my face.

[Szeptun]

ther should be a death sentence on that people...

[MKB997]

bad

[Staffyno1]

WTF just WTF. Some songs are best left alone.

[Hybridsniper2807]

What have they done? These modern idiots should not be allowed to touch such an immense song and ruin it with SHIT.

[jackslostsanity]

Awful, awful version...

sacrilege!

[minigiganten]

I little bit of me just died, man how can the stones allow this.

[TheBlackjack18]

horrible version of great song.it's really horrible.

[DKgirl94]

'Wtf is wrong with the song?' What's wrong with YOU guys? Stop bitching.

Great version ♥

[asincourt]

@DKgirl94 i'll tell you what's wrong with this song 1. fucking autotune 2. sounds like a dance mix not a protest song 3. too focused in on a select group of people.

[MortoFett]

watch 30 seconds of this video and that was too much

[shadyboosh]

fuck my life

[A7Xreece]

I'm actually getting depressed by listening to this. Terrible cover.

[kikehviofo]

Me encanta como se ve Joss .. aww so cute

[AndyWhyberd]

great work on ruining a classic song...

[sporepeople]

This is 179356% Bull shit remake >:(

[kinneas]

WHAT THE FUCK HAVE THEY DONE TO THIS SONG?

[kfitz9]

Terrible version of a GREAT song

[hstompson]

@kfitz9 surely the gods will not let this travesty stand. i only hope mick and the boys got some serious cash for having this song raped

[hunter1ra]

...my ears are bleeding...

[LINKMASTERX]

@hunter1ra "let it bleed" lol

[hunter1ra]

@LINKMASTERX lol.... :-)))

[dalboy83]

how did this pass as a good version? it is killing such a great original song. making a new version of a song is suppose to make it BETTER not worse!!!!!

this is sad.

[PalzeeBoy]

Fucking awful.

[optimusprimo69]

This cover is so bad that it deserves to be taken off youtube. Can't believe the stones let it happen.

[Jack395re]

What the fuck is this shit? A song like that doesn't deserve to be shit all over by some fat black bitch.

[Andy61990]

@Jack395re LMFAO todays world is messed up i hate it

[risteard01]

@Jack395re that's kind of ironic, your comment that is....

[bads06]

she just ruined an epic song...

[robblindsay]

Oh dear. This is painfully crap, there really is no excuse for doing this to a great old song. It's like punching a pensioner in the face

[zat1]

Have you guys seen her cover of Voodoo Chile? Yeah, you're going to hate her.

[zacker2000]

wtf is this shit???

[jose001002]

For those thumbs up... WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU!

[Sukiethenoodle]

WTF is this shite, the arrangement is fucking AWEFUL, I've lost a lot of respect for Joss doing this shite

[Kruezritter]

EWWWWW

[russianIB]

joss stone is aight imo, but that black woman >_<

[MsLutine]

Beurk

[lilmick2k8]

another classic murdered in cold blood kill me now :S

[Crossifixxo]

WHAT  THE FUCK ????

[thejet999]

Hovis Bread!!!!!

[HawkinHawk]

damn, orrible!

[bulletfrank]

Oh God My Ears!! :(

[myrtic1]

what the fuck.. learn people: if you wanna fuck up a timeless classic

imitate her

[picoyan08]

wack....

[ElephantRage]

This is so wrong.

[oscarin007]

no me gusta... ...que asco como consiguieron el permiso para hacer mierda esta obra de arte de los rolling stones

[l7ebels]

my fav song of all time taken thru the dirt..... although i like to think twice and have a few views on things so i guess i could look at it as a tribute to the song. Each for their own

[badbav33]

It's like it's not the same song....I don't even want to call it a cover...they've kind of Mashed up the lyrics with some cool bongo and africa drums....I don't know what to make of it. Compared to the original It's not good, but...as a song in it's own right, it's good....Lets pretend there are two individual songs called Gimmie Shelter....

[zat1]

@badbav33 Agreed.

[PocusUK]

wow they've taken a timeless classic and turned it into utter shit, I mean this has absolutely none of the power of the original. Hawkwind did a good cover, this version? deserves a court order banning it from the public domain!

[ambadad]

Superb. If you're going to cover a song, either be confident that you can do an equal or better job compared with the original, or take it to a different area like this. Wonderful rhythmic arrangement, great big soulful vocals -- what's not to love?

[zat1]

@ambadad I completely agree.

[TheCatsniper]

absolutely horrible!

[TheKrewl]

what the hell is this shit?

[Batou3]

@TheKrewl It's called a hit single dumb butt

[lajarv]

Cool version!

[poolman304]

ruined a great song

[Lambsterdamn]

The original is great and so is this version. Why are people so divided? Venting anger about something else?

[JayDawg1001]

I like the video but why does this feel like a Sally Struther's PSA.

[zat1]

@JayDawg1001 X-D

[sable1891]

the trick is to go to tubifier (dot) com to grab this mp3.

[benni9119]

is this a JOKE ????? O.o

[3DON291]

this fucking blows. who the hell is this person angelique? im sure when the stone's heard this they lied through their teeth saying it was good just to be nice. they prob regret letting them cover their song. and everyone who thinks this cover is good has no taste in music. gimme shelter is a song that cannot be covered, just like a movie that cannot be remade. this is like trying to do a remake of the godfather. reply if u agree or disagree...

[TheVNAlvarez]

Wtf is this??!!!!!! You killed the original, both of you should go to prison for that >:(

[FQBeast]

This song is fucking awful! How dare they rape one of the most amazing songs by the Rolling Stones.

[naterusk2]

way to ruin a great song... joss stone why waste you time with this...

[usergently]

I'm jost stoned!

[rockfreak611]

I think I just threw up in my mouth. This cunt just fucking destroyed one of the most powerful songs ever written. Some one please beat the fucking shit out of her. This is an outrage!

[ambadad]

Excellent. If you're going to do a cover, do it differently rather than a re-tread of the original, particularly when the original is so good and so well known.

[advoplus]

"!"

[Insanitea]

Oh my god , they absolutely destroyed the original.

[beatsofsoultrain]

awful

[horvathazagergo]

i like joss stone :}

[maustel]

@horvathazagergo We all do :-) such a doll

[softemi]

Luv this version better... it wayyy! better... has an Afro beat feel too which you can dance to... and also recieve the message too... Love it....

[softemi]

Luv this version better... it wayyy! better...

[Obby16]

totally destroys the message and feeling of the original song.

[ukchablues]

Joss Stone шикарна, я ее обожаю!!!

[ukchablues]

it's Rolling Stones!

Joss Stone шикарна, я ее обожаю!!!

[dylanNEEDSCOWBELL]

Grace Slick still has the best voice in the entire world.

[Mojowillyray]

...interesting approach !!! Very !!!

[bellej2]

so many people hatin on this song.... i love it! it is way better than the original..... i thought i was goin to snore wen listening to the original( dont get me wrong the rolling stones are legendary!)

[RascalXmas]

this is so god damn terrible

[lyn2588]

HA!

[poolstreetchippy]

Clichéd and commercial. Blugh. Killed a fantastic song.

[izzi1331]

@98pup

This is just someone African taking back music appropriated from black culture in the first place.

[98pup100]

@izzi1331

Maybe so, but I think she would have had much more effect if she had come up with something original.

[davidwatson]

merry clayton the real thing.

Whoever told Joss Stone that she's performing in a shampoo commercial didn't do her a service.

[robbiebryant]

just a shot away...

[mporokoso]

Angélique Kidjo is railing against the European critics that have accused her of making "inauthentic" African music. "Who are they to tell me what is African and what isn't?" says Kidjo, her voice rising in indignation as she thumps the meeting room table of her record company's office, in a way that suggests it might well be a substitute for a music critic's head. "Did they grow up in Benin and hear the music I heard? No? Then shut up!"
