This song is Beatles cover
Lyrics :
What would you do if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
I will try not to sing out of key
I wanna get by with my friends
I keep tryin' with my friends
I'm gonna get high with my friends
Holdin' on with my friends
What do I do when my love is away?
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
Oh no...
How do I feel by the end of the day?
(Are you sad because you're on your own?)
I don't get say...
I get by with friends
I keep tryin' with my friends
I'm gonna get high with my friends
Holdin' on with my friends
(Do you need anybody?)
I need someone to love
(Could it be anybody?)
All I need is someone,
Who's gonna trip me right
Somebody who love what I'm sure
I wanna get by with my friends
I keep tryin' with my friends
I'm gonna get high with my friends
(Would you believe in a love at first sight?)
I'm certain it happens all the time
(What do you see when you turn out the lights?)
I don't see too much, but it shows it's mine
I get by with my friends
I keep tryin' with my friends
I'm gonna get high with my friends
Holdin' on with my friends
(Do you need anybody?)
Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..........
Girl,don't you know it?
(Could it be anybody?)
Don't you know I need someone,
Who'll trip me right
Somebody who love me
...
The genius of the world and how sung yet, remember.

Mr. Cocker is simply amazing. Watching his performance of this song in '68 or '69, then seeing the Mad Dogs and Englishmen version and then the version in '91 or '92 and this one in '07 displays a remarkable and sustaining talent that validates the man's ongoing popularity. He has the gift of song. And he puts all his soul into it. And that's what i hear.

Thanks for showing these great Cocker videos.
I posted a few of them on my blog.
Brings back great memories.
He is better now than ever.
Years ago I tended bar in Burbank California.
Joe stayed at the hotel I was working at, and he ordered a rum and coke.
He was just a plain regular every day guy.
As nice as could be.
