In 2005 I had just split with my long-time partner & my heart was broken. I heard that this new R&B band was playing Lee's Palace, a small club in Toronto, and I wanted to go but who wants to go to a concert alone. I hemmed and hawed for a week, then decided that maybe I better get used to enjoying life on my own. I'm so glad I went - what I saw turned me right around. Love, power, joy and about the best live act I ever saw. Thank you so much Sharon, Gabe, Neal and all the Daptone family for what you gave me.
No kidding if I don't have long to live, I'll give it my best to stay alive and live. I'm pretty sure she found someone to help her pass away too, as it should be. RIP
Call my family crazy but some are ready to go to prison to do the right thing..The pact is done. Fighting for the right to die with dignity may take decades. We are ready.
I only discovered her today. She was Amazing!!! I know she is not with us anymore but her music will live on and I count myself as one of her fans from today
The first time i saw Sharon was a television broadcast from Glastonbury festival . She was amazing . She was well after cancer . And she stopped singing for a whlie . And thanked God for her recovery and then she preached the Gospel to all those British New agers . Bold about it . I love Sharon Jones .
I found this song on FB while looking for background music to a visual story. This is my first time hearing the fantastic Sharon Jones sing and her rendition of this classic. RIP
So saddened by her loss today. 2016 has been a horrible year for the passing of great artists we have lost this year. I saw Sharon and the Dap Kings a year ago last summer with the Tedeschi Trucks Band and the show was fantastic. RIP Sharon. You will be missed.
I found her last year. This song is in the opening credits for The First Lady. Her rendition of this song is powerful and incredibly soulful. I hated to learn she is gone. I'm glad she left a lot of work for us to enjoy. RIP Ms. Jones.
A beautiful rendition of a great Woody Guthrie song. The lyrics talk about all of America if you pay attention to the words. Love her energy thank you RIP.
Exactly: *All of us.* No matter what happens or who we are, where we’re from, we gotta keep that hope, that dream alive. We’ve been historically and in the present aspiring “….to form a more perfect union.” On the eve of the midterm elections let’s remember this land does belongs to us. Everyday all over this planet people are literally dying to get to the US. Criticize as much as ya want but try trading places with them, try living their lives.
First heard this track at the end of the ‘Knock Down the House’ Netflix documentary and instantly bought the album on record, cracking album! Such a shame I only discovered her after she’d passed away, her energy live must have been infectious to say the least!
This Land is your Land : the famous song of Woody Guthrie, who also composed The House of The Rising sun and he "created" Bob Dylan ......... On his guitar, he wrote : "This Machine Kills Fascists" ! DANY (France)
We are Viral!! Me too, KB-JR Docu and couldn't wait for the credits to roll to see who this was.... All I caught was 'Sharon' but turns out that's all ya need...Luvin' It!
A great verse unless you have a place where people are constantly snooping and they constantly leave trash in and damage your forest. I'll keep putting up signs and prosecuting, thank you.
Wow, I've never heard Woody Guthrie's song sound like this! Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings are awesome! Thanks Ken Burns /Jackie Robinson for leading me here.

She was a force of nature. I was so fortunate to see her perform many times. Gone too soon. We miss you Sharon Jones!
Rest In Power, Ms. Jones. You tore up the stage and poured your heart and soul into every song.
That she did.
No kidding if I don't have long to live, I'll give it my best to stay alive and live.

Rest in peace beautiful queen. We will never forget you
Who is she?
We will definitely not forget, I will always remember with pleasure and joy because this is how she makes me feel
😢
I express my deepest loss for for the most greatest voices I've ever heard.
I only discovered her today. She was Amazing!!! I know she is not with us anymore but her music will live on and I count myself as one of her fans from today
By far the best version of this song.
It's a great song. This version was sorely missed.

I saw that show too (in Paso Robles) CA...Tedeschi/Trucks band were good, but Sharon Jones was AMAZING. So sad she is gone.

Such a voice. Such a loss.
She had hell on earth in recent years and fought hard. RIP OUR ROCK AND SOUL WOMAN
She touched my SOUL. Wish I could have met her...Rest In Peace my REAL soul sista...gone to soon.🙏😢

Would've been AMAZING to hear Sharon Jones singing this at Biden's inauguration!
She might just throw up probably.
Yes it would have been great!
O M God 😲
What an awesome experience that would have been. An unforgetable moment in Americas history for sure..... Thumbs up on that idea...❗
Go putting your comment on politics blog ! It's music and soul speaking here !
I doubt Biden would care for the populist tone and disregard for private property. He is one of the elite after all (as was Mr Trump).
jackie robinson and ken burns superb documentary
I miss you Sis. But your music will live on
The originals brought me here and thank God they did they're awesome😍
Black Lightning Much?

What an amazing beautiful powerful spirit. RIP Sharon Jones.
For you and me. I love you.
God bless Sharon Jones. She was the real deal.
Rest in power.
We didn't realize the cancer hadn't gone away.. RIP. So glad we got to see you; you were amazin!
To think I only heard of this song and band because of black lightning. Such a beautiful voice. RIP
Lawd knows, that hard workin woman deserves a rest.
Mind blowing rendition by Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings of this incredible song - Sad to hear the bad news!
Beautiful rendition! ♥️
R.I.P. SHARON JONES
Pure cool. Fuck yes she kept the original verses intact
I love love this!! Amazing voice❣️
So sad to hear of her passing. To a Soul with soul - fly free and thank you for the music.
Grande mulher, grande Artista e maravilhosa PESSOA!!!!!
Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings are super talented professional a with solid soulful performances.
Thank you for getting me through Lady.
Thank you for the music.
Where was I all your life, Sharon Jones. What I missed. Rest in peace and rise in glory
This Land is your Land : the famous song of Woody Guthrie, who also composed The House of The Rising sun
and he "created" Bob Dylan ......... On his guitar, he wrote : "This Machine Kills Fascists" !
DANY (France)
Woody didn't compose House of the rising sun. He recorded it. The earliest recording is 1933, but evidence dates it back to the late 1800's.
The originals ❤❤
R.I.P Miss Sharon Jones.
I'll always love you and your music.
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT ! RIP Sharon Jones
Uma DIVA! Infelizmente nos deixou cedo! Piu Bella!!
I heard her voice on Cold Case the TV show. Oh how I missed her voice. She never got her full due. Rest In Peace.
You were loved and be missed....Rest in Peace Souful Songstress😢😢😢
Sending love and support to Miss Jones in her battle with cancer. Sing on!
I didn't know...prayers for her! What a wonderful performer, glad the Lincoln commercial brought her the attention she richly deserves!
Que voz é essa meu pai??? Canta muito...
The world cries, today! Eterny Sharon in my brazilian heart!
We are Viral!! Me too, KB-JR Docu and couldn't wait for the credits to roll to see who this was.... All I caught was 'Sharon' but turns out that's all ya need...Luvin' It!
Thanks for singing the one verse that is always ignored (...sign said private property...)
i love me some rosa price
A great verse unless you have a place where people are constantly snooping and they constantly leave trash in and damage your forest. I'll keep putting up signs and prosecuting, thank you.
@@corneliusmcgillicuddy2522 Interesting. So what country are you living in where forests are private property?
@@corneliusmcgillicuddy2522 you miss the point of the verse, Corny.
@@price-singspuccini6124 USA.
Whew! She brings me all kinds of joy and is an inspiration, to say the least.
Rest easy Ms. Jones. You will be greatly missed.
2020--don't waste it. prayers.
Rest in power and song!
Wow, I've never heard Woody Guthrie's song sound like this! Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings are awesome! Thanks Ken Burns /Jackie Robinson for leading me here.
I think Megan Thomas below put it best - "Rest in power." She commanded every stage upon which she performed.
