    Unfortunatly, that comment was literally so noobish that the Translator actually walked away from us when we tried to have it translated. Something about not being worth the stupidity? -.-

  • btw i hate covers go find up your own songs, showing your guitar skills playing this sogn doesnt mean sh...damn rednecks these days.

  • @bustsomecaps

    you know for people who are good players but terrible songwriters covering is all they really can do, they'll go on to make great session musicians. They might not have fame but they'll have a fair amount of money

  • tx for updating the orginal with all these crap covers around. adn yes anyone covering doobies on youtube is a SHEIT player.

  • Can you GET any better than that opening lick? I submit that you cannot.

  • @ElriqED You might match it but you'll never beat it.

  • @ElriqED @ElriqED Definitely one of the Best opening riffs. I submit for your consideration also,

    Santana And Rob Thomas doing Cream's "Sunshine of Your Love".

  • @ElriqED

    yeah highway to hell acdc

  • @ElriqED - Ever since I was a little kid in the early 1970s and first heard this song on my Dad's A.M. radio in his Chevelle, I always, even now, think that the riff to this song ROCKS, and, IT ROCKS HEAVILY! :) Take care, Bro! :)

  • gotta love GTA 4 Lost and damned

  • @gta4isawesome1 amen

  • @FleshPound11 Peace and prosberity be damned my brother

  • Comment removed

  • I rate this song a 10

  • I'm Joe Dirt!!

  • I live near the town of San Antone (actually in San Antonio) I have been to China Grove a couple of times. It is tiny. But a nice place to be. You can even hear the music at night!

  • 2:12-2:24 best part

  • awesome

  • I hope I'm not the only black person who like this song and heard of the doobie brothers.

  • @bigblackdaddyblue I'm a brother too! I feel you man. You're definitely not the only one. I like the Doobie Brothers and I love me some classic rock.

  • @smill1985 I'm also a brother too! I love classic rock!

  • I just got to my college dorm and i was so excited i blasted this song for like 2 hours!!

  • 1 person needs to share a DOOBIE with a BROTHER!!:)

  • O_O

  • Hop in my Banshee and cruise around Liberty City, running from cops, listening to this track. Wo-oh-oh, OH.

  • Heard this in GTA 4!! And I love it!

  • WTF is with the dislike?????

  • THE DOOBIE BROTHERS---''CHINA GROVE''

  • I love you luvnhappinezz. Thank you so much for uploading this. You don't mind if I subscribe do you?

  • a real masterpiece

  • Some knucklehead hit the dislike button. Must be, who wouldn't like this feel good, kick ass song? Back in '77 I'd go back to the barracks & turn on the Doobies & everything would be OKAY ! Even if I was still in the Army !! THAT was a miracle, I tell you !!

  • Probably the most recognisable riff in rock history. I saw them live in the mid 80's, what a show! One of the few bands that sounds as good or better live than recorded. They really come alive.

  • music of my youth... thanks for upload!

  • What a song what a song! What a fine ass thong that girl wearing, what a fine ass thong!

  • The Doobs hit #15 in Billboard, 10-6-73. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Put 'em in the Rock Hall of Fame, already, right, gang? Let me know if ya think so, too!

  • @DaveWollenberg Ha great day to be a star my bday..agreed as well ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME or bussssssst..same thing for rush

  • Comment removed

  • @DaveWollenberg Not only the Doobie Bros,also my two favorite bands King Crimson and Deep Purple which are two extremely influential bands with so much talent and they haven't been inducted yet in the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame either..

  • @DaveWollenberg the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame is just a commercial show aimed to entertain people of all ages,a lot of them don't have any musical knowledge or are kids that didn't grow ip with this music and only know radio bands like Zeppelin,Floyd,Kansas,etc,

  • @DaveWollenberg so they induct bands based on which band has the biggest amount of popularity,not talent and legacy.

  • Rythym is great and there' s that Bass again. That guy was really good!

  • The soldier and his buddies with the Uzi gun parts!

  • lived here in san antonio since 75...partied in china groove...many times,,,in fact got my CDL there lol

  • Brings back fun memories when I used to go clubbing at age 18, when it was legal to drink.

  • Beers, Marlboros and CLASSIC ROCK 70s to go . . . . Zippo lighter too and after this song AGAINST THE WIND by Bob Seger

  • Van Halen's first album was produced by the same guys as the Doobies...Ted Templeman and Don Landee. Same studio. Same 427 ms delay on the guitar. Same warm, majestic tone. Gene Simmons from Kiss produced a demo of Van Halen's first album in NYC a year earlier and it was missing this feel. The Doobies sound is why VH became so huge...just sayin...

  • @Gordfozzfoster Jeff Skunk Baxter played guitar on Gene Simmons' solo lp in 78..

  • Thanks for the upload, excellent sound quality. Rocknroll

  • Been waiting 20 years to see them live. Booked tickets here in Sydney Aus next month - can't wait!!

  • Why can't I upload a video with " Jesus is alright with me" ? pfff
