I like this MUCH better than the released version. Nothing wrong with Elton's voice, of course, but the vocals practically fade into the mix in the released version. Here, Lennon is clear and strong and sounds great.
It's so interesting to hear with just Lennon's vocal on it! So graceful and definitely one of his happiest during a pretty depressing part of his life! Lennon, you never gave up hope. Ever. And in return, you gave the world hope. You are and always will be missed.
Lennon and Elton have such similar voices i could never tell who does what part ❤ 2 geniuses combine to make such an uplifting funky song , rip John never forgotten x
Almost as if John were alive today. Wonderful. Also, such splendid work from Bobby Keys (his death brought my attention here). Great work! Great legacy.
I really like this stripped back version of Whatever Gets You Through the Night . Always loved John's Voice. Walls and Bridges is my go to. It's so underrated. There's a Acoustic version of No Body Loves You when your Down and Out which is much better than Record Version. I would love a WALLS and BRIDGES BOX SET. YOKO it would be a Wonderfull Gift to the World.
Never SAW this before! I've heard the song & it always made me think of Saturday Night Live - not to mention the same city. I will still never forget that morning my Dad told me about his death the night before.
Like a lot of Lennon's songs, they GROW on you. I didn't like this one when it first came out, and now I love it. Isn't John still one of the coolest guys to ever come through rock and troll?
i think elton added a lot to this track vocally and instrumentally. this version would not have been a big hit single i do hear the resemblance to rock you baby which inspired the feel
First time Ive come across this, oddly this footage they ended up using for the Mind Games video instead officially. Very interesting to hear with Just Lennon's vocals. The final album version seems like its more Elton , too much in my opinion.
If I had a nickel for every time a member of the Beatles wrote a song that sounds the SNL intro, I'd have two nickels, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Yes whatever gets you through the night it's alright as we all get those nights of insomnia so do what helps you I say ...sleep tight sleep tight tonight.... shhh zzzz shhh I get them many do to God bless 🙏🙏😘😘🙈🙈🙋♀️👎😁xzzzzz ahhh zz

I'd always wondered which voice was John's and which was Elton's. Now I know!

Great song. You can tell he loved NY.
unexpectedly I recognize the 60's John here. (I sighed)
So do I... John went back to being himself during this time...
No hay nadie más grande que Lennon
Should've been the theme to Saturday Night Live…..
I’ve thought the same thing for years! Every time I hear that intro I say, “It’s Saturday night liiiiive!” 😂
Wow great call there! And it came out just one year before SNL !
Saturday Night Live intro theme in the 70's was almost a direct rip off. Pretty sure that was on purpose.
I agreed.
Every night is Saturday night so just sit tight , because whatever gets you through the night it's alright 🎉

John Lennon es esperanza de vida y FÉ 🇦🇷🎸🌈✌️
I sure miss this man. We really could use some John Lennon now. ❤
I love it, miss you John Lennon.
A happy man here. At 58 I get what he is saying,oh yeah I do.
I like this version more. Love his tone in this.
I like this better.. Only john
Only video of this song where the quality is any good.

Cooool platforms John!!!
2022. Awesome. Thanks John. X
I just realized that it takes me infinitely more technology to hear this song than it used to when I heard it on AM radio!
Almost as if John were alive today. Wonderful. Also, such splendid work from Bobby Keys (his death brought my attention here).
Great work! Great legacy.
What a great man.
Rock Your Baby Johnny!!
Love this. Love hearing johns voice

i miss you John
Never SAW this before! I've heard the song & it always made me think of Saturday Night Live - not to mention the same city. I will still never forget that morning my Dad told me about his death the night before.
So I learned John got the title of the song after watching the Rev. Ike on tv.
s'alright s'alright
Like a lot of Lennon's songs, they GROW on you. I didn't like this one when it first came out, and now I love it.
Isn't John still one of the coolest guys to ever come through rock and troll?
:.) He TROLLED the WORLD...
Trolled for PEACE. lol.
I prefer this version.
Great Song
Ok excelente!!.
Bobby Keys, RIP.
i think elton added a lot to this track vocally and instrumentally. this version would not have been a big hit single i do hear the resemblance to rock you baby which inspired the feel
Can you put Paul's voice in so that it'll turn into a Beatles duet?
I love this than the original

I don't know bit it is HILARIOUS
LIKE!!!!!!
pretty good, i hate the other "official" video
Good song,I thought I't was sung by someone else, Etta James come to mind.
genius, as much as anything else he ever did....
:)

What is the Beatles poster that John sees in the window ?
Sgt. Pepper on the Road. It was a play for a short time.
Guess he added the 3rd verse later..
Can I hear it without the piano, please?
Lennon was in his gandalf phase here😂minus the beard 😅
How in the hell did you get negative votes?
Yes whatever gets you through the night it's alright as we all get those nights of insomnia so do what helps you I say ...sleep tight sleep tight tonight....
shhh zzzz shhh I get them many do to God bless 🙏🙏😘😘🙈🙈🙋♀️👎😁xzzzzz ahhh zz
Is this real?
What happened to Elton?....lol
Personally, I prefer the John Lennon only vocals!
SOUNDS BETTER WITHOUT 'THEE bum-bill bee
Elton John's vocal ruined this song! This is much better.
So much better without Elton.
