  • Payyi is amazing, loved her music for a few decades now, never gets old....

  • ¡Brilliant!

    

  • Never new this cover existed. Amazing. Thnx !

  • Brilliant, just effing brilliant! Wow.

  • One of those extremely rare "as good as the original" Beatle covers.

  • Never heard this before.Loved it !!!!

  • The words still work. I think of the ppl who join cults, religions, political movements whose sole purpose is to oppress & hurt others...what is their purpose? They die and what have they left behind but oppression & pain, not freedom & joy. The words still work.

  • Saw her do this song live, and she was absolutely captivating - fantastic interpretation of a classic.

  • she was great!

  • ...this song and patti will be remembered with love and freedom to love

  • Marvellous rendition. Patti rules.

  • Type "Ranj Catch 22" if you wanna hear a cool song!

  • I've loved Patti Smith, poet and rock singer, from afar since I first heard horses in the 1970s

  • A Excellent Vocalist,and a good cover

  • This song is ideal in all kinds: Beatles's orginal, Patti's version, Sonic Youth's version(my favorite). They are so hypnotic!

  • met her on Market st once. Sweet soul.

  • amazing cover.

  • I've died and gone to music heaven

  • One of the great frontwomen -- for me she ranks with Grace Slick, Sandy Denny, Chrissie Hynde, Janis -- performers, songwriters, icons.

    Goddesses proclaiming.

  • she is gone.

    

  • goodness

    

  • I always loved the Beatles or Georges version the most. Pattis cover is very very very good! Love it............

  • Who is the one asshole who dislike?

  • @DivisionFire a justin beaver fan?  ;)

  • some songs are written by great artists so that other great artists may cover and make it their own . this was the case here . awesome ...

  • Not Bad Hairy Armpits and all LOL

  • lov it!

  • Amazing!

    

  • Dislike button on Patka..wtf??!!!

  • never listened to smith, heard this song and got it right away from amazon for 99 cents...really good!

    

  • wow, really gooddddd.

  • this is real music !!

  • Brilliant artist is brilliant...

  • Such simple, beautiful and profound words. Love the original by the Beatles but Patti just brings something hauntingly ethereal to it. Great Post.

  • This is one of the few Beatles covers (that isn't made by the Across the Universe cast) that I like, and that DOESN'T make me wanna smack a ho. :)

  • @ShianneSyanide haha smack a ho or cut a bitch? xD

  • @junglehead4 Both lol

  • @ShianneSyanide Have you heard Alanis Morissettes Dear Prudence cover?

  • from where does she pull such power!

  • highly appreciate ....

  • She is one of the great vocal artists of our generation she reminds me of Ella Fitzgerald because she brings so much power and simplicity to her singing. She is not as virtuosic as Ella, but her emotional commitment and power is very strong. Because she is singing in the punk genre no grace notes are called for. The more I listen to her the more I love her singing.

  • @lebarosky well said!

  • One of the best by one of the best covered by one of the best.

  • @bigdunk9..... Elmo!

  • A true "punk rock chick" doesn't wear makeup or go glam (hello Courtney?!).

    Drop the "sex appeal" and the gossip dribble and you get raw punk, real punk, what it was meant to be.

    We were talking about the people who gain the world and lose their soul.....

    Patti lives and breathes her soul.

  • i love this. I wish there were more artists like patti.

  • wow this is a masterpiece.

  • Very different from the original, but very good! This is one of my favorite songs ever, and it works in every genre. Everyone should cover it. ^^

  • this cover gives me mixed feelings.

  • I hope this doesn't seem negative, but it sounds like crap to me. Hadda turn it off.

  • @zahdio

    That can only be taken as negetive, but to each his/her own.

  • Patti Smith can always cover a song and make it sound sensational!

  • great version!!!! love this

  • I am very surprised. She did a fine, earthy version of this song.

  • word

  • Fantastyczna Piosenkarka Patti Forever!

  • Great! I found out Patti Smith thanks to You Tube.
