Well you talk shit about John Lennon you are talking to the wrong person.. So stop with your gay ass comments because I bet you John Lennon has other fans that would stand up for him just as much as me
And all you are doing when you comment on a video badly us being a selfish rotten bitch
Like hearing John swearing and being his true down to earth self! The song would have more meaning if he were''nt a filthy rich,verry changed,Phoney,really!!
sorry but your still a tosser !! and yes you are immature you need to grow up !! psss everyone seems to blame yoko but on the other hand they think john was a genius well if he was why was he with yoko ?? john loved yoko anyone can see that why dont people just drop it and respect john for his choosing of a partner.. i personally think its a race issue!! yoko made him happy and thats good enough for me.. sorry if you dont like MY OPINION!
again how can anyone withan ounce of grey mattereven listen to fag band like greengay ??????a poor wannabee american covers band. what nationality was lennons killer??seppo! thats what.
@kremelta You have no idea what good music is fool!
Green Day are massive and excellent musicians.
John Lennon woulda been a fan I bet and flattered they covered this song.
Wannabe americans? Ha,ha,they are world famous and been making brill'' music for twenty years.What you mean what nationality was lennons killer,seppo?WTF is seppo?
I don't know why everyone keeps talking about green day on a video of john's song. I know they did a cover of it, but seriously, go bitch on the video of them. not on here. for christ sake.
have some sense of where your posting.
and also, not only people in the UK can relate to this song, Americans can relate to this song as well, a lot of this song relates to shit that goes down in the u.s. as well as the UK.
we go to school, were expected to go to college for a career we haven't chosen yet
Nice post Famingfullmetal, U got it I wish more people would understand that. He's setting the example that U maybe hated for what u believe in, But if U stand up as he did u will be a Hero, Because it is the working class hero is fighting 4 what U believe in regardless of who u R You can make a difference. Thank U 4 John. Peace & Love 2 U." Imagine" that," Power 2 the People", "Stand by Me", " Give Peace a Chance" Cold Turkey on the Run". Claudia, ladyhawk821 ;-)
It's not the cords, It is meant to be simple 2 express the words, There is a message. If you want 2 be a" working class Hero just follow his words. We don't care how many chords it took 2 acomplish the message, There is always a message in All of his songs. Peace & Love he fought for 4 the world. Claudia, ladyhawk821 ;)
you can use only Am and G. I use only those two and it sound the same. If you can you can put the D chord between Am and G but it doesn't really matter
JOHN LENNON...........yes the best of the good ballad of the siecle,john lennon is an very legend in world, thank maestro for every song of peace in world, thank john.....i like
thank rip jhon in paradise, i cry ever cry for this song, i remember you jhon lennon you is an very legend thank baby, sleep...sleep...in paradise of very artist legend of siecle...i love peace, i love people, i love my girls, i love too you jhon, thank for you life, jhon
i have to disagree, i like john lennon, and the beatles, but greenday is also very good, just a different style of music, and their verson of this song is great, it is good to listen to alittle bit of everything and not to get stuck in a rut all the time
green day has been around since the eighty's and only have one album that is listenable to in all that time. and now two years later or whatever, people don't even give a crap about it any more. they suck balls, whereas lennon died december of 1980, and this song is much older than that, its still a great along with lennon and all his other stuff.
you are all twats rap is the working kids voice and we call them chavs and hate them for the clothes they wear. have you seen how they live makes me want to stab someone
Not rich, but not poor, either, truth me told. The others were - no indoor toilets in those council houses. Ringo came from the Dingle - that's poor. Harrison was born and raised in a 2 up + 2 down. Lennon had his own room, they had a garden in front and back. He said right before he died that he 'should have been ashamed to open my mouth to sing that song whilst Ringo Starr was alive.'
You're kidding, right? Or don't have a clue what you're on about.
Harrison was born in a house with no indoor toilet; when he was 7 they moved to a 'nice' place that at least had one. 2 up + 2 down, heat in the kitchen; 4 kids.
McCartney had the place he did (also w/outdoor privy) because his mother worked for Liverpool as a midwife. They counted eggs, lad.
John lived in a 7 room, semi- with garden; his own room. Ever been through there?
its about working class because liverpool were hes from is an working class city he new wot the dockers of liverpool went through by getting shit on by our shit goverment !
Im not sure which I like better John Lennon's or Green Day's. I mean Lennon's is the origanl but Green Day is just awesome. I like this one cause its soo calm but I love Billie Joe's voice in the Green Day version. I call a tie. I cant chose anyway cause Im a huge GD fan & my boyfriend is a huge Lennon fan. to hard.
this is to lucifer umm you dont have to dis greenday just because you dont like them i dont like them that much anyways but still they did a good cover in my opinion and i have a good friend that likes greenday just because you think greenday is bad doesnt mean that they are bad....
*Comments of hate have no place here* John Lennon gave us all a great gift with this song. The message I hear: There are many forms of control in this world none of which are benevolent. So clear your head, think for yourself, and love your brother. Peace.
ahh the real version of the song.Greenday sucks so bad its not even funny they are wannabe punk and punk sucks balls in the first place.why try to be something that sucks.Fuck greenday those fucking faggots could only dream of writing a song like this.
Does anyone feel like they blatantly ripped off of "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon Lightfoot? It's quite literally the same song, but transposed up.
probably only 12-15y.o. kids would like greendays version beter than the original....but what the hell most of them probably also like "hanna montana" and "high school musical" so let them enjoy themselves
I think John Lennon, being who he was, would appreciate the reasons behind the cover that Green Day did, no matter what Green Day changed artistically to make it their own.
you all think your so clever and classless and free, but if you want to be a hero just follow me. greenday ruined the song, johns version was gentle and touching and memorable, greenday turned it into a rock song, fuck greenday in the ass
now this version is sick...people just got into this song cause green day covered it...they turned it into crap...ozzy did a good cover of this song greenday sucks balls
You can prefer the new version, that's not a crime... Maybe today it's hard to enjoy the sound of this one, it's getting a bit old, but as he said without that one Green Day's one wouldn't even exist...
I like the lyrics in this song, Ijust don't like his version musically. Green Day takes this song to another level, but they couldn't have done it w/o John Lennon.
The line about how to be able to go to the top you first have to learn how to smile as you kill is actually the truth in so many ways. Look at the CEOs of insurance companies in the US. They make their money from killing 18,000 a year. Not to mention the other corporations that kill with their practices. That seems to be a prerequisite for many of the wealthy to be wealthy.
You all don't understand anythin' ; We can't compare Lennon and greenday!It's like to compare Nirvana and Red hot chilli peppers!They don't play the same kind of music.Lennon wrote and played this song on his way and this is a very emotional song played like that; In 2007 Greenday has just wanted to bring a new breath to his song and they played it on their way.
In my opinion,With electric guitar and drum it's very different and it makes us to see the agressivity which is behind the lyrics of this song. I do love The two versions! But, thaugh I have all the greenday albums and I am a fan of this great band, I don't think that we'll keep going talking about us 26years after their death like we do for Jhon Lennon. Peace and have fun!
great man and great song , but i think that the only working class hero in Beatles he was Ringo . Anyway only a medium class hero like John could write a masterpiece like this !
Good God. I mean, Green Day the best band in the world. Like, mad kapow, where's your mind at? Haha. You crazy psychadelic drugged out bastard.
No seriously, no disrespect. I respect your taste of music, though I despise it. But don't you fucking ever put John Lennon down compared to Green Day. The GD-version were surprisingly good.
Habbka you are full of shit because you are a Green day fan. What does age have to do with a great song? What difference does it make if your 15 or 80? Green Day is pop punk shit. I would like to see Mike Ness from Social Distortion beat Billy Jo (poser punk, poser mod, poser everything) to death with his own guitar.................
The fucking point of the song to be simple, and grim, Greenday's version gets rid of both, Replacing grimness with whining and simple with their fancy acoustics.
hey formula1two3, dude, shut the fuck up, its cocksuckers like you that get all us other Americans a bad name, may I apologise on behalf of my fellow compatriot, he's a asshole, probally queer, F4 reject, and a troller too.
lets give it up for this guy, i mean john lenon knows what he is talkin about. this song represented an actual and obvious truth that constantly transcends in our lives. Bravo
Who gives a shit which is better u can watch both of them who cares there both good there is no one stopping u from watching either one more than the other
who cares which is better? i like this version better because this guy thought it up. i have no problem with covers, but the original is better. there are a ton of bands today that play beatles songs better than the originals but you know what? nobody listens to them, because this was a revolutionary group who stood on a pedastal miles above all others. no band today has done that, or ever will.

Our TV leader boldy speaks
The words of Christ he tries to preach
We need more power to hold the line
The strength of darkness still abides..

You all don't understand anythin' ; We can't compare Lennon and greenday!It's like to compare Nirvana and Red hot chilli peppers!They don't play the same kind of music.Lennon wrote and played this song on his way and this is a very emotional song played like that; In 2007 Greenday has just wanted to bring a new breath to his song and they played it on their way.

In my opinion,With electric guitar and drum it's very different and it makes us to see the agressivity which is behind the lyrics of this song. I do love The two versions! But, thaugh I have all the greenday albums and I am a fan of this great band, I don't think that we'll keep going talking about us 26years after their death like we do for Jhon Lennon. Peace and have fun!

Good God. I mean, Green Day the best band in the world. Like, mad kapow, where's your mind at? Haha. You crazy psychadelic drugged out bastard.
No seriously, no disrespect. I respect your taste of music, though I despise it. But don't you fucking ever put John Lennon down compared to Green Day. The GD-version were surprisingly good.
This song is a masterpiece.

Habbka you are full of shit because you are a Green day fan. What does age have to do with a great song? What difference does it make if your 15 or 80? Green Day is pop punk shit. I would like to see Mike Ness from Social Distortion beat Billy Jo (poser punk, poser mod, poser everything) to death with his own guitar.................

The point is the meaning of the song, not who did it better. Anyone could sing it and it would be a good one.

yeah ur right im sorry!

The fucking point of the song to be simple, and grim, Greenday's version gets rid of both, Replacing grimness with whining and simple with their fancy acoustics.

If you are answering me - splashy - then I am glad you got the point. Wonderful! We have a meeting of the...comments! ;^D

your right ^^
te green day version is a tribute to john lennon "everybody shall know his song!", they said.
habbka 4 years ago
FuCk Greenday,
they don't even know the meaning of the song,
and you probaly just cry to it, you little prick. What went wrong with your generation? Was it Spongebob? I'll kick his ass!!
It's fine and dandy if you like it better than THE JOHN LENNON's version, but in NO WAY did they 'do it better!!!!!'
They made it sound like just another shitty teen song.

who cares which is better? i like this version better because this guy thought it up. i have no problem with covers, but the original is better. there are a ton of bands today that play beatles songs better than the originals but you know what? nobody listens to them, because this was a revolutionary group who stood on a pedastal miles above all others. no band today has done that, or ever will.
