I always loved this song and then in1978 just joined the navy, our first port stop on a med cruise was Rota Spain. Couple of us went into a bar for a beer and there’s a jukebox and the first song out of it was “never been to Spain” what a great way to be 18 and in a foreign country for the first time.
I’m so happy my parents raised me on this music instead of just turning on new pop or rap. This music is timeless and will always bring back amazing memories.
Thats my son. Crystal is not getting a deal and chelsey does not get a deal she preditorial asspects pizza boxes are ginas carol does not own it and needs to stop molesting teens
Crystal wanna kill Hannah brackish elieen as well Anna felecia kent logan thor is not my sons and towens is not the owner of anything towens is not the one having mickey Ace Josie Ace Matt Matt at mcdonals killed a Lopez katelyn R Terri James Edith sherman
Iris is not the anagramist nor is Carl and these are pre-designed that I worked for as I had designed all of this and own the copyright let me get POOCH as he is not needing an entertainment attorney as h is the biggest one right max is not family members Maxine is a female
I’m a 2002 baby, but my dad who was born in 1968 introduced my brother and I to classic rock at a young age. And Three Dog Night specifically for whatever reason was our “traveling music”. My dad would put his CD in and blast the radio to wake us up. So I woke up to “JEREMIAH WAS A BULLFROG” on the days we were going out on vacation. I always wondered why he did but now when I hear these songs they’re associated with good memories.
If I am correct, Hoyt Axton wrote both this song and Jeremiah was a bullfrog. Great writer and great songs. Brings back memories, too of growing up in the 70's.
I used to lie in bed when i was a kid in the early seventies and play a small rectangular white FM transistor radio i got for my birthday till i fell asleep. WPRO out of Providence Rhode Island "The station that reaches the beaches" and songs like this would transport me to a magical world i fell so deeply in love with forever! Wish i could go back and be that kid again!
@@brandenbauer8942 said with a heavy heart , but alas not ever again.....we live in a different time and values are not the same.....it would be nice if quality music would return.
I'm 54 years old. Was heating up a cup of coffee in the microwave and for no reason that I know of, began singing "Well I never been to England..." Came straight here.
This is such a fabulous tune. No wonder Elvis picked it up and covered it. There is something so thoughtful about the vocal approach to the lyrics. I just love it!
Can't stop listening to this at 77 years young..grew up with The Fillmore Auditorium and Avalon Ballroom..so blessed to live in the North Bay during the 60's...can't forget American Graffitti either
They were huge !,just saw them in Atlantic City ,they were great .Band was awesome,singer was the original one that night .it was 9-10 ,Cory's birthday !.He had two others that sang also.They played a their hits!
I know what you mean! Grew up on 60's & 70's music too. I still look out for songs & performers that are authentically talented, not doctored up with techno-junk.
Great song - it's one of those 'you were there' type memories songs. For me, that experience was in an 8th grade music assembly in 1972 (George Fox Jr. High School) when a girl named Cindy Pavlic sang this song. She actually did a great job with it, and my friend at the time Glenn Johnson fell in love with her. I am not sure where Cindy and Glenn are these days - it's been a long time. Maybe one or both passed on, but I will always remember this great song by that memory. Lots of influences in this song - rock, country, gospel - really a master piece!
I love Never Been to Spain & Shambala among other Three Dog Night songs.Why aren't they in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame? I've been told because they didn't write any of their songs so what I alot of groups didnt.I'm 63 & I grew up on there songs.
R.I.P., Cory Wells. Now you can go to Spain, England, Arizona, Heaven, & all points in between. I'll miss that bluesy, soulful voice of yours, which gave Three Dog Night panache! You, sir, will never be forgotten!!! Enjoy your next journey. Bravo, Three Dog Night!!!
...as well as Danny Hutton & Chuck Negron (the other two original singers). They will always be Three Dog Night as well (even though Mr. Negron was dismissed from the group nearly 31 years ago)!!! A big 'Bravo' to the "Original Seven" of Three Dog Night!!! :-)
Yes, Cory Wells was the lead singer on this track!!! There's no mistaking that soulful, raspy bluesy voice of Cory's, that's for sure!!! R.I.P., Cory Julius Wells.
Another thing somebody posted on here really hit home. "It's worth it to be old now, to have been young then. " Ain't it the truth! I was born in '63 and can remember "the good old days". I remember when this song came out; which would've made me 8 years old.
I'm tellin ya the sixties seventies and some of the eighties were the greatest years of rock and roll we will never have music like that again the people from our generation back then had way more Talent than anyone these days thank God for the rock and roll😎👍✌🌎
Was in an old bar yesterday with a woman and she asked if I liked 3DN. I said Yeah! Started rattling off some songs. She couldn't remember this one. She couldn't believe I did. Music back then had words of substance, unlike this drivel of today. Thank you madame for the lovely video.
❤ Well I’ve never been…What a song 🎶 am 60 yrs old and for some strange reason I woke up with this song in my head…but I couldn’t remember who sang it and thank goodness we have RUclips….mystery solved…Have a Blessed day
OMG, three Dog night sang so many songs that became hits, those were the good ole days, wish I was back there some days, when life was ever exciting, you never knew what was coming round the corner....... love them times !!!
+Tony Thunderfoott WE have so much in common..thanks for sharing...glad u love them as much as I do...I have a real sicko following me everywhere....if you are nice to me...beware..u might get him attacking you to...Pamela

I understand your wish....but it doesn't mean the same for some of us.....hard for you to understand, I get it.... for some...a shit time...for others...normal! But I agree, the music was great....
Amazing song still after all these years...brings back memories for me as a kid going to old hot rod car shows and drag races with my dad all over Oklahoma ❤️
I've never been to heaven. But I've been to Oklahoma. They tell me I was born there, but I really don't remember. Love it. Hard to place why. Just resonates so deep
Yeah I'm still breathing. I can recall being in my Mom's 1972 Pontiac Catalina while she drove into Roseville from Rocklin. This song was on the radio. I must have been 13. Three Dog Night had many great songs.
You have got it right. Sorry kids, but we experienced the 50's 60's and beyond. Wow! Whoo Weeee! Open to all kinds of music. Music is such an integral part of my life. Like art, poetry, literature, the joy of waking up and embracing all the beautiful things God offers us! Whoo Wheee!
Thanks for all the tunes Mr. Wells; you will not be forgotten. And the music of Three Dog Night will go on forever. Rest in Peace, February 2, 1941 - October 20, 2015.
+C. Middleton R.I.P., Cory Wells...February 5th, 1942 - October 21st, 2015. He may have never been to Spain, or Oklahoma, or Arizona, but he's now been to the halls of Shambala (couldn't resist!). Blessings & Godspeed to Cory Wells & all in the Three Dog Night family...R.I.P., Cory Wells. :'(
ChihuahuaboyDH Yes we've lost a portion of our youth; liked the "Shambala" but according to articles in the New York Times, L.A. Times and The Buffalo News, each list his death as Tuesday the 20th. The latter has a very nice article regarding his youth on the East side of Buffalo; and the influences on his life. "Cory Wells, Buffalo-born co-founder of ’70s rock band Three Dog Night, dies"
Carrie Hamilton I remember passing the sign for the Jamestown-Dunkirk-Fredonia area on the Thruway every summer as we made our way to Hamburg, in the late 1960's through the late 1970's to visit relatives who lived right off Route 5. I remember your area being particularly beautiful.
I cant believe i just recently came across this song.... I am a music buff (heehee), looooove all old school music, how did I miss this gem? My new fave for sure!!!! And the way I "found" it was...... radio loop at my store, I heard a voice I just loved, remembered a few of the words (even literally had to shush a customer to hear the words!!! Its true!) Got home, googled the lyrics I remembered.... (which also brought me to a few covers of the song which were rad as well, including elvis, Waylon jennings).... love me some 3 dog nite!!! Sorry for rambling!!!
Now just imagine being at the drive-in theatre in a big Oldsmobile, with your best girl. A cooler full of beer, and plenty of Joints. That, my friend, is when America was truly free.
@Big Paulie • Well see my friend two main hangups you have, stay with me. 1) The Lyrics about "Never been to Heaven" Is being sung as a metaphor. Drinking your copious amounts of Beer is where you become confused.... 2) This has allowed you to take the entire beauty out of the song.... Listen and look at TDN Music as it was it was intended to be heard. It's a story Big Paulie, my friend. Take Care and Be Well🇬🇧🇺🇸🇲🇫🇮🇹🇨🇦🇨🇷🇧🇷🇲🇽🎼='s🌏☮
Got a friend, that rocks this song, he plays a les paul, he's at least 25 years younger than I am, and I always love to hear him play it. I was a kid when this song came out, headed to 62 years here now.
I'll turn 70 on 8-13(I hope I make it) and the music I grew up with is still going strong. My Sirius XM stays tuned in on 6 or 7 from the Carolinas to California and back. 60's child still running wild. Thank ya Lord!✌🇺🇸
The 1970's were my most enjoyable years. I was 15 to 25, Got my first job, had my first date, went to college and graduated, got married, and had a son, all in that FANTASTIC decade.
As a Sixties hippie chick, I only can say we had music like this AND Woodstock. Oh, Lord, I remember how gorgeous all the guys were. Well one day I hope to see all of them again. We had a blast. I'm so glad I got to experience it all.
Michele Fioretto I agree!! Grew up in the 60’s and 70’s . Everything was so simple and carefree! Music was great and many friends I ran with, I still see today!
My Mom used to sing this to me when I was little I really don't think she knew what this song is about she just liked it anyway she has gone 21 years ago today RIP I love you
Oh my..... I miss my little tin can transistor radio....I still remember its electronic circuit board scentted perfume...oh no...now I miss hearing those 70's songs walking around with friends singing along with tin can tunes...oh NOOO...now I miss that age, 13,14,15,16 such innocent times....oh no...wait...stop....can we just go back to the song and start over?
God,rest your soul in peace.....Cory Wells....passed yesterday..... :'( ......so much loss anymore,too much sorrow...lost my Daughter,8-3-15....the pain's endless and there isn't recovery,no.....God,be your guide now.....
YAH....and I'm sorry...but doing a "remix" on an old song ......isn't being creative......it's just recycling...what was already good......curtseys & runs away.

I am so greatful to have been a kid growing up to this amazing music.
You got that right
me to great musis
This and "The Weight" by The Band were two of my favorites as a kid.
Hell yeah 👍
Dam right! Good old days
Living during the time of this music was spectacular. The 60's and 70's was the best.
The cars were awesome too
We were right about everything !!- except the drugs...
damn right ,I'm so glad I was born in 60.a teenager in the 70s best times for good tunes ❤
So true!
@@McCurtainCounty888 One of my favorite groups- The Cars!
Woke up at like 5 this morning with this song in my head.
I just now had it in my head!!! Strange how songs just pop in our heads. Really liked Three Dog Night back in the day 😊
My favorite song by 3 Dog Night. ✌️❤️🤘
How funny, I woke up at five with this ony mind. Wanted to learn that lick on my guitar. Brings joy to hear it again.
Me too- !!
I swear I can't think of another song that gets me sooo up! His voice, the guitar just fabulous!!!
“Celebrate” by them may be even more high energy!!!
Try Kashmir live and crank it up!! Jimmy Page tears it up!
This is a song that makes you high without smoking anything

A great song by Hoyt Axton played by Three Dog Night. Back in the days when we had REAL music!
Hoyt Axton wrote many great tunes back then.
The 1960's and 1970's produced the best music ever written and recorded.@@koolkitties8552

This song gives me goosebumps 👍
You have got it right. Sorry kids, but we experienced the 50's 60's and beyond. Wow! Whoo Weeee! Open to all kinds of music. Music is such an integral part of my life. Like art, poetry, literature, the joy of waking up and embracing all the beautiful things God offers us! Whoo Wheee!
Man when I was 10 in 73 I would walk around singing this song thinking I was so damn cool lol
Same age and still walkin around singing it ..Rock on
That's because you were damn cool, dear Rick-of-Smith. Cool people sing cool songs !!! It's a simple formula!!!
Let’s party 🎉 ....... Spicoli ........
A guy from the neighborhood who did good. We will miss you Pasquale Caputo! Forever in our hearts
Thanks for all the tunes Mr. Wells; you will not be forgotten. And the music of Three Dog Night will go on forever. Rest in Peace, February 2, 1941 - October 20, 2015.
+C. Middleton R.I.P., Cory Wells...February 5th, 1942 - October 21st, 2015. He may have never been to Spain, or Oklahoma, or Arizona, but he's now been to the halls of Shambala (couldn't resist!).
Blessings & Godspeed to Cory Wells & all in the Three Dog Night family...R.I.P., Cory Wells. :'(
ChihuahuaboyDH Yes we've lost a portion of our youth; liked the "Shambala" but according to articles in the New York Times, L.A. Times and The Buffalo News, each list his death as Tuesday the 20th. The latter has a very nice article regarding his youth on the East side of Buffalo; and the influences on his life. "Cory Wells, Buffalo-born co-founder of ’70s rock band Three Dog Night, dies"
+C. Middleton Thank god he left Buffalo, but at least he died peacefully here in Chautauqua Co.
Carrie Hamilton I remember passing the sign for the Jamestown-Dunkirk-Fredonia area on the Thruway every summer as we made our way to Hamburg, in the late 1960's through the late 1970's to visit relatives who lived right off Route 5. I remember your area being particularly beautiful.
It is, reminds me of Ireland. Come on back, get off that exit, check the area out.
In my late 60's and grew up in the greatest era of Rock & Roll. TDN has always rocked and ill always enjoy listening to their unique harmonics!❤
that Floyd Sneed groove...he laid so deep in pocket he got lost...so underrated...this band IS HALL OF FAME
I’m 58, grew up on this band, lyrics resonate with me today!! I’ve never been to Heaven❤❤
Loved them…..seen them many times, even at an older age…
The best at taking your good song and making it great.
I cant believe i just recently came across this song.... I am a music buff (heehee), looooove all old school music, how did I miss this gem? My new fave for sure!!!! And the way I "found" it was...... radio loop at my store, I heard a voice I just loved, remembered a few of the words (even literally had to shush a customer to hear the words!!! Its true!) Got home, googled the lyrics I remembered.... (which also brought me to a few covers of the song which were rad as well, including elvis, Waylon jennings).... love me some 3 dog nite!!! Sorry for rambling!!!
Now just imagine being at the drive-in theatre in a big Oldsmobile, with your best girl. A cooler full of beer, and plenty of Joints. That, my friend, is when America was truly free.
I've never been to heaven, but I've drank a lot of beer and listen to the beautiful three dog night saying it's alright ❤️🎸☺️
@Big Paulie • Well see my friend two main hangups you have, stay with me.
1) The Lyrics about "Never been to Heaven" Is being sung as a metaphor.
Drinking your copious amounts of Beer is where you become confused....
2) This has allowed you to take the entire beauty out of the song....
Listen and look at TDN Music as it was it was intended to be heard. It's a story Big Paulie, my friend.
Take Care and Be Well🇬🇧🇺🇸🇲🇫🇮🇹🇨🇦🇨🇷🇧🇷🇲🇽🎼='s🌏☮
yess
I was 10 and now I’m 57! Seen this band , my mom bought the tickets 👍highland park Illinois! Can’t help but brag what a show!
Hell ya I bet it was a great show. What a mom much love to her and you. Thanks for sharing that.
Got a friend, that rocks this song, he plays a les paul, he's at least 25 years younger than I am, and I always love to hear him play it. I was a kid when this song came out, headed to 62 years here now.
Hearing this song on Tulsa King made me go back and listen to this classic . This was my grandma’s favorite band in 70s . Rip grandma 🙏🏼
This band was truly ahead of their time!
Or just cool old school
Man, I've played this song over and over and it just keeps getting better. And I've never been Spain yet...
64 here and always loved 3 dog night
This is as good as it gets, and it will never get this good again!!!
I'm in my 50's and I love Cory Wells... still. One of the greatest voices of this era!!!
I'll turn 70 on 8-13(I hope I make it) and the music I grew up with is still going strong. My Sirius XM stays tuned in on 6 or 7 from the Carolinas to California and back. 60's child still running wild. Thank ya Lord!✌🇺🇸
I’m 19 and I love this song
Greetings from Texas 2024 & beyond!!😁✌️😎
The 1970's were my most enjoyable years. I was 15 to 25, Got my first job, had my first date, went to college and graduated, got married, and had a son, all in that FANTASTIC decade.
Those were the days
As a Sixties hippie chick, I only can say we had music like this AND Woodstock. Oh, Lord, I remember how gorgeous all the guys were. Well one day I hope to see all of them again. We had a blast. I'm so glad I got to experience it all.
Michele Fioretto I agree!! Grew up in the 60’s and 70’s . Everything was so simple and carefree! Music was great and many friends I ran with, I still see today!
My Mom used to sing this to me when I was little I really don't think she knew what this song is about she just liked it anyway she has gone 21 years ago today RIP I love you
66 years old, and I listened to this song today while working out.
60 and I LOVE this song. Proud of it!
Love, love, love this song. I can listen to it over and over. It never gets old, only better!
Tom Saunders makes me move and get my groove on every time 😁
I still love their music. Fun, rockin’, great vocals ... good stuff!
What a great song from my younger days. Never get old
Sounds so much better than it did on the crappy little transistor radio I had in the 60's.
Which I had to hold next to the barbed wire fence for better reception. :)
But the crappy little transistor sound is part of the memory!
Oh my..... I miss my little tin can transistor radio....I still remember its electronic circuit board scentted perfume...oh no...now I miss hearing those 70's songs walking around with friends singing along with tin can tunes...oh NOOO...now I miss that age, 13,14,15,16 such innocent times....oh no...wait...stop....can we just go back to the song and start over?
What about them 8 track players :-)
Mon El oh how I wished i still had all of old 8-tracks back and old L.P.'s
God,rest your soul in peace.....Cory Wells....passed yesterday..... :'( ......so much loss anymore,too much sorrow...lost my Daughter,8-3-15....the pain's endless and there isn't recovery,no.....God,be your guide now.....
Mary A BEAUTIFUL
This song has it all - melody, rhythm, spirit, lyrics - it rocks - it's awesome!
This song still sounds as fresh as it did 50 odd years ago when I was a kid. Current artistes have run out of ideas.
YAH....and I'm sorry...but doing a "remix" on an old song ......isn't being creative......it's just recycling...what was already good......curtseys & runs away.
Let Brian feel free to add a few more sentences unto the truth he is speaking. We art definitely listening!!!
kind of hardto improve on perfection
I first heard this in December of '71, at age 8. My brother was playing it on his cassette player. Remember those? Kids today...
Spot on! Modern music is quite frankly shite!
54 and still rocking to Three Dog Night! Damn this band had it together.
I have always loved this song
An incredibly amazing group! Redefined music to say the least. CELEBRATE!
STILL TOURING !! SAW THEM IN HIAWASSEE, GA LAST YEAR. STILL ROCK OUT !!
I saw them in Owensboro, Ky. last August. They were absolutely great!!!
I saw them at hirsch memorial coliseum in Shreveport La. in the 80s when they opened for Van Halen. They blew VH out of the water.
3 Dog Night, Eagles, and Queen. Where has the talent gone.
They died literally.
Lost in Autotune hell....
The "Grave"....Unfortunately!
@@rickwilliamson9248 😂😂😂😂you got that right 🙌🙌🙌
As the Raven said, "Never more!"
