Jerry Lee Lewis: Not ready to retire

[xsaab93x]

@ samuelrosenfuckface

STFU you worthless piece of shit. American Dumbass. Thats exactly what makes people hat the americans. Ones like you.

[themusicstillsucks]

Jerry Lee is one of my heroes. At the age of 76 he's still going. I deeply respect 'The Killer' Jerry Lee Lewis.

[luisls1]

The killer should retire, but i admire his passion

[jazzy2blue]

i saw him in 2007 he was already.....out.of service......but i love him.....

[straker1999]

Nobody lives forever, but I have no doubt his music and fame will live on, long after he joins his buddies in the sky ... love ya Jerry Lee ... :o)

[Cordwangle2]

What's happened to his face? Looks like it's made of wax.

[albertrat1]

Elvis was the king of Rock and Role, But Jerry Lee Was much much more.

Jerry Lee will live forever in the hearts of all us believer's..

[LAWoman323213]

Did he recently have a stroke?

[wavygr]

@LAWoman323213 LAWoman I was going to ask the same question he looks and sound like he has had a stroke. His hands work though.

[poussyledzep]

i think the killer looks very old than his age,he is badly aging.he looks about 88.unfortunately,he drunk too much alcohol!!

[cookieman38111]

@poussyledzep Wasn't just alcohol friend.

[poussyledzep]

respect

[1bridlington]

It will be a very sad day when this legend passes on...and a legend he will always be...

[lilundgren1]

Long live Jerry Lee! Love you!

[RockandrollPoet]

the killer is still rocking

[fanboy2015]

The man is old, but he can still play the piano like a youngin'.

[LiquorWreckedEmGood]

So Jerry, these days, when she pulls the bull by the horn, does anything happen?

[6noteblues]

17. 20. 36. 47. 75 years old. Doesn't matter. It's still rock and roll.

[Calikokatspiano]

u see he he just likes playin' piano...its not complicated

[billyg864]

I see no pain watchin the killer here. Such energy he has burned up on stage and off living a great life, giving pleasure to all who dug his music. we all age.

[MrElvisgratton]

Il les a tous enterré, longue vie a Jerry Lee Lewis, le roi du piano

[LLMorse1]

This man is AWESOME. Slow and sleazy or fast rock n roll.

Mr. you are a musicial genus. (Yes I spelled it right)

Shine on Jerry Lee!

[rioblancoman]

Rock on Killer. I bet his wife is half his age. He can still tickle the ivory.

[angioyt]

RETIRE?

He should answer: "Hey! I'm Jerry Lee Lewis!" ^_^

[CJTELE]

The Last Of The Sun Records Bunch said goodbye to Elvis Roy Orbison Johnny Cash Charlie Rich Conway Twitty Billy Riley Carl Mann Carl Perkins and many more Lots of respects for THE KILLER

[diagreen]

@CJTELE yea.so glad the killers still around.hes still got the hair to.wish i could meat him.pure genius

[Kenny12554]

Hey Buttonhole...these comments are for people to give their "opinion"...right? Well, that's mine. OK?  I don't know how I could be any nicer about it. I love the guy, and he is an ICON but lets face it, the man can hardly even "speak" any longer ...let alone playt music! OK? I am not being disrespectful. I CAN be if that's what you would like. I am simply giving MY view same as everyone else here.

[wjbarricklow]

@Kenny12554 If you watch almost any interview from his career, he was horrible at it. Honestly, he's no worse at it in his 70's than he was in his 40's. IMO, he's just not comfortable in front of people unless he's performing. Might be because he was raked over the coals by the press all his life, and always had to answer personal questions in interviews.

[melkiemelkie]

I think it's very impressive this guy is still around making music for 55 years.

[PIANOPHUNGUY]

I love your piano playing, Jerry.

[MrLongtimegone]

I am still kickin it and so is Jerry. Dig the Killer big time..

[grastark]

Keep Rockin' Jerry Lee!

[grastark]

Keep Rockin' Jerry Lee!

[gotch09]

My God, I thought Jerry'd be dead years ago.

[xXxDrRobxXx]

1:41 look at his hands. They still look young and healthy. Those are hands of a god.

[SmokeBojangles]

Bless The Killer's Heart.He Plays Piano now Like My Granny Did.Love You Killer!I Have to agree with Kenny.:(

[Kenny12554]

Jerry you are an icon...but c'mon man, this isn't how you want to be remembered. There IS such a thing as "staying too long" at the party. This hurts my heart to see this...I love this guy...but hell he can hardly "speak" anymore much less sing. Jerry, just stand there and BE THE ICON you are! You've earned your place in history man!

[BenAliGtor]

@Kenny12554 I happen to think you're right. It's like watching an old fighter climb into the ring and get clobbered. In his day, Elvis, Johnny Cash, and all the rest were red hot, but Jerry Lee was white hot. He'll always be the Killer to me, and I mean no disrespect, but there is a lot of pain when you remember what was compared to what now is.

[yendor1232]

He is and always will be "The Killer" Rock on my man Rock on

[TSxSparkyy]

Hes my Idol, its just ashame how much bottox hes had, he can hardly move his face :/

[heathclif83]

@TSxSparkyy Hehehehhahah, Outlived and Far surpassed Micheal Jackson,,,, not to mention, have ya seen those guys from Rolling Stone's lately"? hehehaha he got 20 yrs on them,,,, Don't Fuck with the Guy, He's the ''KILLER'' , &  a Survivor~!!!

[MrGreendayfreak321]

He is sooo ugky, How when he was younger did he wand up with a child bride.......and be so ugly then, too................

[3rdPR]

@MrGreendayfreak321 shut up bitch

[grastark]

@MrGreendayfreak321

He didn;'t have a child bride - he hadn't divorced his previous wife when he "married" Myra - so she wasn't a real bride!

[Dogsr13]

they say he has the devil in him

[luketuzze]

He's the real king of rock and roll !

[HotRecordingArtist]

He looks like he is gonna drop dead

[wrobby123]

@whiterobin i saw teeth?

[wrobby123]

1:05 they pulled out his teeth?

[wrobby123]

is that bitch his wife?

[anya933]

@wrobby123 I presume you don't know the woman you are calling a bitch.  She may be a lovely person.

[wrobby123]

@anya933 female dog=bitch maybe if you didnt have such a negative mind you could grab a dictionary

[usair727]

I knew him when he was a kid...God ,,, what has time done to us all ...I loved playing his music, people got a real kick out of it ...I look back at the years gone by, ...wow I wouldnt have spent it any other way. Keep pumping the keys Guy, you were always one of my favorite

[AuroraBorealisAK]

@whiterobin to answer your question, that was Jerry's first piano that he learned to play on. It was a "player" piano before he go it.

[TheRitchardgaleHater]

0:23 "This is gonna be fun!"

[xa25]

Sick bastard!

[MrLoui318]

hes from my home town ferriday louisiana

[gopher0]

The Killer IS the King of Rock&Roll

[samuelrosenbalm]

@gopher0 The king of pedophiles, maybe.

He is no Elvis.

[onstageagain]

@samuelrosenbalm Jerry Lee was a kool man ... he lived it to the fullest. Could tear up a piano , great performer... and your right, Elvis was the king.

[TommyDarmar]

@samuelrosenbalm priscilla presley was 14 years old when she met elvis.. she wasa kid too when she lives by elvis... is not good what jerry have done but your comment about elis is not true.... maybe you read more bevore you write.

[samuelrosenbalm]

@TommyDarmar I hate it when europeans get on youtube and try to speak english to americans.

It just doesn't work out good for them...

[TheGo2phil]

@TommyDarmar Elvis used to go with underage girls all the time, it was accepted then.

[TommyDarmar]

@samuelrosenbalm =) oida du bist so homo das de höfte gnua is. wenn du jemals in die schule gegangen wärst würdest du wisste das DU AMERIKANER auch aus europa bist. du bist so eine dumme nuss da ist die hälfte genug

[samuelrosenbalm]

@TommyDarmar I'm gay something something something school something something americans europe something something I'm retarded something something...

In english, please.

[TommyDarmar]

@samuelrosenbalm why english? you hate it when europeans speak in english with americans. is ok. now we stop this stupid conversation. have a nice day.

[samuelrosenbalm]

@TommyDarmar I am still kind of curious as to what you said...

Have a nice day, as well.

[karennorwegian]

@gopher0 You got that right! My favorite is "What Made Milwaukee Famous Made a Fool Out of Me."....but everything he did is a favorite of mine.

[WrestlingLover2K9]

WOOO!!!!!! i would love to work with Jerry because he's amazing \m/ :) LONG LIVE ROCK N ROLL!!!!!

[cesar2hes2]

una leyenda viviente larga vida a "the KIller"

[AsianLegion88]

He may be old but he is still rockin'!!

[Kenny12554]

Oh my goodness Jerry, ...it's TIME to pack it in big guy. You definitely made your mark in the music business and will NEVER be forgotten!! No one will EVER equal what you've accomplished...but c'mon Jerry,...this is NOT how you want to be remembered! It hurts my heart to see this.

[xcatfoodmanx]

@Kenny12554 theres no age limit to music. if the man still rockin' don't be hatin.

[buttnhole1]

@Kenny12554 I don't see why it matters to you. He's earned the right to do as he pleases. You may feel the same way when you're his age. We can choose to watch or not.

[Ollischniepel]

...until he dies!

The Greatest Rock'n Rollin` Man Ever!

When I was younger, i liked his Songs, grew up learned hear his songs.

I love him and bind him in my prayers,

Thank you JLL!

[Alexizizcrazy]

He looks so sweet.

[chinobling83]

how old is he

[MrWonderful46220]

that piano belongs in the Smithsonian

[Kiefer89]

He's the only Musician with a big M that still is with us.

[TheChoada]

@Kiefer89 That isnt true. There are still great musicians around. Willie Nelson, Ben Harper, Paul Macartney, Even though Metallica sold out and now suck they are still around. It is true that there are nowhere near as many good bands around as there used to be. I just saw a fuckin killer Hackensaw Boys show.

[Kiefer89]

@TheChoada I agree with Willie Nelson. But, speaking for myself and my TASTE, the really good ones have left us. :-)

[Brunosaures]

That piano WOW i wonder how much it would sell for when Mr. Lewis kicks the bucket instead of his chair.

[2016don]

looks like he has had some BAD plastic surgery..lol

[TheRitchardgaleHater]

What did he say between 0:42 - 0:45

uauauauaua?

[DougPatton1]

@TheRitchardgaleHater "any thang from me or not...I imagine they can if they take notice."

[TheRitchardgaleHater]

@DougPatton1 Thanks, I can hear it now, hard to hear it though

[joriszsz]

Yeah, those "young" musicans... Ronnie Wood, 63, Ringo Starr, 70, Mick Jagger, 67, Keith Richards, 67 and John Fogerty, 65...

[starr522]

I ain t thought about retiring. I still got 6 bullets in my gun. Hey, Is the big E still alive? Drive me to Graceland. Here me Elivis? Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang. You are dead. No Officer I don t have a gun. mr Lewis will you come with us? lol I love JEW But admit it, He was a crazy sob

[BlankUberAlles]

[DarkenedPsycho]

[CaliforniaSheri]

I was 41 when my youngest son was born. As he was growing up, he got to listen to all of Jerry Lee's music. Today he is 29 and how many guys his age are lucky enough to know the music of this special man? I hope my son will pass this wonderful music on to his children! Love you JLL!!!

[coyoteguy45]

@TheDiddlysquat ..................You don't know diddlysquat, do you? Who are you to judge anyone? Where he came from in those days it was normal. His mother was around 14 when she was married. It was a different culture.

[1blastman]

@coyoteguy45 Jerry Lee grew up in a part of Louisiana where you could divorce your wife, but she could still be your sister\cousin\momma :o)

But his artistry is timeless and a wonderful contribution to American music.

[bosszeroboss]

Jerry Lee is incredible.

He's probably the last living link to the beginning of rockn'roll.

When he's gone, there will be no one.

Love you, Killer.

[audrapriscilla]

@bosszeroboss right on...except Chuck Berry is still around.

[coyoteguy45]

@bosszeroboss ..................What about Little Richard, Chuck Berrry, Fats Domino? They're old but still alive. They were around before Jerry Lee.

[elowsky]

@coyoteguy45 well, when's the last time they put out an album? Jerry Lee did just last year.

[secfan4life]

his dog is the same as mine looks just like mine..wow

[MrLongtimegone]

hey headbone you stupid turd why would I lie about something as special as seeing the killer in person when I was a kid. I went to your site and that sux. Trust me I seen all the young rocker's in person ..Even Buddy Holly was there.R.I.P

[harmonica74]

Jerry has a gay looking dog...

[LovesUKball]

[mattcroweable]

[TheRitchardgaleHater]

0:25 "This is gonna be fun" xDDD

[christinealderson1]

I named my dog Killer without knowing that Jerry Lee has a dog that is just like mine,same breed and same color.

[JeanEtchepare]

Time catches with us all, no matter how hard we try to avoid it. Thanks Jerry Lee for the memories!!

[Mapatipiapas]

Thanx for all the music Jerry Lee!!

You inspired me a great deal!!

Love u!!

(PS: Man...it amazed me the amount of botox on his face!)

[MrWaspman2006]

[retroeddie]

@fuckuifudontlikeit FUCK YOU IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT! :P

[MrLongtimegone]

I first saw Jerry live when I first started playing rockaBilly and country in 1956 and damed if we both ain't still kicking ass. You gotta love Jerry's crazy ass. I know i do .I am 73 years young and still playing most of his hits on the stage.. People love it. Keep rockin Wild man.

[edstone1]

@MrLongtimegone Me thinks you are lying...

[MrByaeger]

[cernuous]

I'm really saddened to see Jerry enter his dotage..... time and gravity are the great equalizers.

[plwblj]

[webemorgans]

Glad to see ya still giving us hell. Keep on playing Jerry!

[1bridlington]

No wonder the Killer looks old - thats with all the piano thumping he`s done - and man has he done some - a legend and always will be.

[Guljajpolets]

Я рад,что видел его шоу живьем ,Париж,2009год.Jerry-simply the best

[KubikCv]

Great man !!! I love his show in Prague

[Pedy1968]

He is the Killer!!!

[1customcar]

Jerry Lee Lewis Is the shit.What a great piano player!

[mrb3nz]

To sum up J. Lee with "musician". The nerve of some people!

[JubalCalif]

Great Balls o' Fire! Jerry has obviuosly slowed down; though who wouldn't at his age. Nifty to see that he still has ALL his hair! One of the few pioneers of rock n roll who still performs, much less still alive. THANKS for posting this heartwarming clip!

[musicmatty67]

He looks like he has slowed way down for his age..what illness does he have that has zapped him ?

[hater38100]

he plays the hell out of tyhat old piano and there,s nothing wrong what he did in the past she wanted him to they loved eachother i know she was 13. but they had been a longtime after that with eachother

[dntlss]

my main man!!! living legend

[rmachayes]

Retire? Th Killer? Jerry Lee Lewis will retire when he is in his coffin and not before. But I tell you what, give it two weeks and see if he changes his mind!!

[BPRINC1]

was this interview really on the 7th?

[DPHANTOM23]

He sure made a hard instrument to play look easy...

[FloreLarsgaard61]

Dnload the audio from this clip at tubepull doht cohm.

[smfan2000]

0:56; THATS A GOODY! LOL

[scotty1045]

Wonder why he has not had his 1st piano refurbished?

[Marketdomingo]

Jerry lee lewis rules the piano.He doesnt care what anybody says.The man is a extremist radical on the piano.Hardcore legend lives on.

[Marketdomingo]

What a legend jerry lee is.Even though he married his 13 year old cousin.This man still has balls to walk on stage with a whiskey bottle and matches to burn the piano.

[hydfawr]

@TheDiddlysquat Believe it or not. Myra + Jerry Lee had a happy consenting marriage. I aint saying it was right,

but it was only when they left the southern US for the UK when the shit hit the fan.

[SkankerX]

@TheDiddlysquat Actually, you're the misinformed one. While in today's society it is shun upon to have relation with people that are so young, back then it was common practice. And as some said; did you know Elvis married his wife when she was only 14 ?! Nobody ever came up to an uproar about that and certainly never called him a pedofile...

[BCDiver]

@SkankerX - Wrong, Elvis met  Priscilla when she was 14, they married 7½ years later when she was 21.

[BCDiver]

@springheadmotorshark :

Who did I judge? All I commented on was the post about swaggart and religion, it was a wll known fact that JLL was very religious, nothing more, nothing less.

Didly squat, I agree with you. It was common back then but that didn't make it right. I assume everyone knows that Elvis fell for Prisilla (sp?) when she was 14? Regardless, that was not the what I was commenting on.

[hater38100]

i think he plays the hell out of that old piano look at that piano..jerry youre the best



I love the story about the famous picture of the Million Dollar Quartet. Someone asked Jerry Lee what he thought about it and he said he "never could figure out why Elvis was sitting at the piano.
