Yeah, I believe he was laughing at his mistakes and how silly and little the solo sounds on acoustic. It is kinda funny...but what's he gonna do? He's already doing it!
I think it’s his genuine voice… quite simply. I mean, he didn’t write this song and it’s currently being tattooe’d as a sleeve because of SD’s adaptation.
"King Of Fools" I was born a King of Fools. Most people think I'm just a playboy breaking rules. But they don't know that when it comes around to love, I always lose. That's why I call myself the King of Fools. I was born never to care, But now I wanna love that I can share. I've searched in vain for a love that would never be true. That's why I call myself the King of Fools [Chorus:] King of Fools, King of Fools When it comes around your love, I always lose. I was born without one good thought. Just to live fast, tell a lie and break a heart. I have broken many hearts and I've broken many rules; That's why I call myself the King of Fools. [Chorus] I was born the King of Fools. At any other game I never lose. But when it comes around to love, that's when I realize: I was born the King of Fools. [Chorus] King of Fools, King of Fools. At any other game I never lose. King of Fools... King of Fools... When it comes around your love, I always lose.

I saw them for the first time in 1988, and they were pretty legendary on the underground scene for sure, by then? Most Punk bands that came through Florida back in those days would draw max 150 people, but every time Social D played they would always draw over 500 people!!! IMHO, they were legends after the first album!!!
Ness pontificated hating bush and trump onstage, while I rack that up to his past heroin junkie addled brain having poor instinct. His hate is not my hate
I've been listening to you since i was 15 I'm 27 now i hope someday i can see you live i ordered my Social Distortion back patch from Poland and put it on my vest myself you are my favorite Mike Ness your music keeps me alive! i love you!
I just watched Mike Ness’ pursuit of tone episode and now I have to know all about this guy, his playing style is super unique. You can really hear all his folk, rock and jazz influences!
Does anybody remember Social Distortion song named SO FAR AWAY? I know about Social Distortion cause an old BMX video named DIRT BROS in 1990, here in México city I still loving BMX and SOCIAL DISTORTION songs.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Do a live accoustic record. I know the fans would love it. I would buy it in Vinyl and CD. This is some of the best stuff ever!!!!!

Okay, Truth or Dare, guys... Pre-emptively, I choose TRUTH... As embarrassing as it is to admit... I'm 34 and I just got into Social D! Nobody laugh, please..lol Yes, I had heard of them, but I stopped to listen, after I heard "I was Wrong"...I'm hooked!!
j.C. Turner - I’d never laugh at *anyone* getting into a band late. What’s important is that you found music you love, enjoy with wild abandon! Ignore the “gate keeping” attitude that makes them feel “superior”, whilst trying to make you feel insignificant. A sick psychological game used by loser/narcissists. Ffs *everyone* can/should enjoy music without judgement! “I Was Wrong” is a fantastic song, keep enjoying & ignore any arseholes! J. 🎸🎶⚡️
I agree, I was just saying that this is a great song that doesn't need classification, and it seems there is always an argument on Ytube about whether things are country or rock or whatever, and that argument is getting a little tiresome.
Why does everyone insist on putting music as good as this in a box called "country"???? this is soul, blues, punk, country, rock, blugrass, zydeco, fuck all else! Its just good music....damn.
I'm waiting for them to release an acoustic CD of all their classics!
I wish theyd do a Social d unplugged like band like nirvana got a chance to do
That's a instant buy, if they do!
I'd be all over that cd
100% buy it on the spot.
I love these acoustic/ rockabilly versions of these songs! My respect for Ness is always getting higher and higher
I love the smile on Mike's face at 1:30 when he hits that solo. He's loving it. And so am I!
I think he was laughing at the mistakes he made right before that bit haha
Yeah, I believe he was laughing at his mistakes and how silly and little the solo sounds on acoustic. It is kinda funny...but what's he gonna do? He's already doing it!
He's definitely laughing because he messed it up. Actually adds to the song
I am 72yrs old I saw social D 676 times starting in 1983 I will jam them till the day I die even when I reach the big man in the sky!
Im 20 years old and socialD is the only thing that plays in my car. Will never grow tired of them
Your car sounds like my truck. But I didn't catch on to SD until I was 25 -back in 1987.
dude this music is pussy magnet music
I'm only 16 but I want a car like yours
I'm 27 if i had a car i would do the same thing i've been a fan for years since I was a teenager
C. Parks what was ww2 like?
Why does it feel like Mike ness wrote all of his songs about me? Love him, thanks for helping me get through this life of mine!
I think it’s his genuine voice… quite simply.
I mean, he didn’t write this song and it’s currently being tattooe’d as a sleeve because of SD’s adaptation.
I'm starting to thinking their acoustic music is even better; and i LOVE everything they do
Amém
I've never seen such a handsome and talented fool in my whole life.

"When it comes to love, I always lose". Now I believe he wrote those words for me.
Saw them 20 years ago live at UCSD when they were nobody. Still my favorite band
Don't quote me on this, but I think they already made a name for themselves by '96.
you're right. saw them already in Munich (Old Europe) in 1996.
nobody?? i hope you are joking..they were legend by then.
i lived near the campus , wish id known back then they are a great band live
I saw them for the first time in 1988, and they were pretty legendary on the underground scene for sure, by then? Most Punk bands that came through Florida back in those days would draw max 150 people, but every time Social D played they would always draw over 500 people!!!

love this...king of fools, when it comes to love...I always lose....im the queen of fools..
Such a good version, cant stop listening to this!
+774CISCO ikr
These lyrics tells so much. For all those who has been in those heartbreaking moments,true words from Mr.Ness
The song is originally by Ed Bruce, 1977. Great cover, though.
How can the world be so full of hate when we have Social Distortion?
Edgar Banuelos kinda contradicting, when Mike is jumping off stage to punch someone in the face.
@@val13c59 punk rock shit.
Ness pontificated hating bush and trump onstage, while I rack that up to his past heroin junkie addled brain having poor instinct. His hate is not my hate
@@joebarron7659 , that guy should have been more careful about what he wished for. When you go looking for a huckleberry, it's not hard to find one...

the smile when we do a guitar solo that doesn't sound right, but we still love it anyways.
I just watched Mike Ness’ pursuit of tone episode and now I have to know all about this guy, his playing style is super unique. You can really hear all his folk, rock and jazz influences!
I love how playing acoustic their country influences come through
that's why I call myself the queen of fools
Tania Cavallo I feel ya lol
This song is really speaking to me as of late.
I was 8yrs old when I first 👂 social D. 35 now .. Never gets old
If u like this you would love the dallas coffee house set ness did in 94 or 95.. it was a live acoustic striped down bad ass set.
We need an acoustic album
I Love this song. Can relate to it so much.
Watching Mike' smiling while playing that guitar has no price
i've seen them twice in denmark, a Great live band..
33 years later and I'm still listening like it was the first time.
Geez,Mike's voice is even better live than on the record!Acoustic sets are the real test of a great singer.Mr.Ness has got it.

I was born a king of fools most
People think I'm just a playboy
Breaking rules. But they don't
Know that when it comes around
To love I always lose why
I call myself the king of fools.
I was born never to care but
Now I want a love that I can
Share. I've searched in vain for a
Love that would never be true
That's why I call myself
The King of Fools
[Chorus:]
King of fools, king of fools
That's why I call myself
The King of Fools.
I was born without a good
Thought just to live fast, tell a
Lie and break a heart. I have
Broken many hearts and I've
Broken many rules that's why
I call myself the King of Fools.
I was born the King of Fools
At any other game I never lose.
But when it comes around to
Love that's when I realize
I was born the king of fools.
mr. ness messing up on the solo at 1:26. just looks at brent and laughs while thinking to himself what the hell was that
I like them better now than I did in 1982.
1:35 that smile every musician knows that smile.
Phillip Peters what? That he’s fucking up?
@@thebarrochannel Nope. Bliss
Great song!
Fool of all fools 💕
Fantastic!!!
Yes Sir!
Greetings from Germany...
I can imagine Hank Williams Sr. singing this song in his heyday.
Pure gold!
Social D for the win..

That shirt is legit.
Great performance! Thank you for this video !
This one goes out to Georgie! Love you
Seeing them August 27th in Raleigh. Anyone else!?
Troy Stevens Nope ... but I am seeing them in Ohio !
Excellent voice control!!!
The voice just keeps getting better with age
Like a fine wine or a damn good scotch 👌😎
I'm waiting a long time for anything!
C'mon SD. Put out

I was born the King of Fools.
At any other game I never lose.
But when it comes around to love, that's when I realize:

They'd better release an acoustic album with their hits on it at some point. These versions are amazing.

@HillBillyDrew Our (all time) hero! That's for sure. :)

Social d and Ness have help keep Rock and Roll a live.

I'll take this guy over 10 Curt Cobain's or a 100 Dwight Yokem's. Note, and I love Kurt Cobain's stuff. This dude is a national treasure.
I wore out 3 CD's of Between heaven and hell.....

i bet "i was wrong" and "don't drag me down" would be great , too
Johnny 2 stones! Miguel Nestle!
@socialmothafuckingd I don't think it was a "I messed up look", I saw it more as a "this solo is tough on acoustic".
love acoustic socialD, that cameraman tho who zoom on the bassman when theres a solo going on lol
I fucking love you MIke Ness.. You fucking uber-legend
