George once said he shouldn't be as famous as he is. He said he's not that good a guitar player; he was just lucky enough to find the right instrument with the right sound that fit his hands. Sorry, George, but you ARE that good. Period.
Some people say George is just a glorified lounge singer. I have to disagree with them, because, unlike most lounge singers, people actually know who George thorogood is!
I've never heard anybody say that, wow! Those people know nothing about George Thorogood And The Destroyers, or their rude, heavy rockin' sound that'll blow you through a brick wall. Keep on rockin', Thorogood!
I was a limo driver for George in Cleveland, OH one night. He is a really nice guy, glad I could meet him and let him know I sing his songs at karaoke. He said " songs?" LMAO
I have always loved George and that hard rockin blues sound of his. one thing I would love to see is how he would tear it up on a 3string cigar box guitar since he is clearly a master of the raw gritty sound.
one of best im from delaware also god bless you and the destroyers do a show at deer park again getting old and dont like big places remember the stone pony take care ty
wow...i been listening to him since 1979...I can't believe it's been that long. Ted Nugent used to play Gibson Brydland guitars sorta' like George's. They both ROCK!!!
A unique and fantastic combination of paying tribute and covering the blues legends and his own music. Saw a comment asking why he was in in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It completely stumped why he wasn't. If admission is supposedly based on contribution to the music, his updating and promotion of the blues, THE ROOTS OF ROCK ADN ROLL, along with his own stuff just proves it is really just political bullshit. If a bubble gum band like Journey gets inducted and George doesn't, I guess it really doesn't mean much.
Stadium show, pfft. I thought you preferred smaller venues; both times I've seen you, it's been less than a thousand and has been absolutely terrific. Less money, but way more fun!
Anyone know where this was? First heard about George in a Playboy magazine way back when. Writer said he was walking by a club, heard the music, had to go inside and could not BELIEVE the sound THREE GUYS were making. He was quite impressed---so I HAD to go and find my first George Thorogood tape!
Hey, George Strait admitted he has to go back and learn his first hits all over again for concerts. When you've been entertaining people for this long, something's gonna give. At least it wasn't his hands.
@@Funkyethelred hell, Don Henley couldn't remember lyrics when the Eagles got back together! Glenn Frey laughed on camera when he saw Don was struggling.
I know this is an old post of yours, but if you study up on music like this, more or less folk genre, people changed and change the words all the time, it's part of the form and nothing is wrong, the show will go on.
I quit about then myself. I am proud now to say that I'm not rich, but I succeeded in avoiding the rat race while being self-employed for about 25 years. It was touchy for while, but me and my wife are going to be alright. Made it... now a witness of the specter of the crash of civilization. Some GT helps.
Hi I apologize for not listening for a while but I’ve been somewhat preoccupied with bullcrap screw em you rock bro,my wife never cared much for your music,
This song came on Spotify so I grabbed the clippers and got a free haircut. And thought if the guys at work asked me why I cut my hair I was going to sing this song. No one asked. I am so unimportant. Can't imagine what it would be like to be you. I guess it's ok being me. I'm good.
You clearly know nothing about the wage gap my comment is based on real life where people work hard in real life and dont bitch and complain that someone who makes more then them does,a manager thats been with a company longer then a new manager should be makeing more haveing worked longer and even people with the same job MAKE MORE if they work longer...women who complain need to work as long as a man does TO MAKE EQUAL PAY not half as long for equal pay GET A REAL JOB
Keep playing and stop trying to make sense, because you aren't. How many times have people like Robert Plant, Eric Clapton, etc., talked about this? Sounds like you still get stoned and miss it all.
George once said he shouldn't be as famous as he is. He said he's not that good a guitar player; he was just lucky enough to find the right instrument with the right sound that fit his hands. Sorry, George, but you ARE that good. Period.
Thorough good!
George and his band are great entertainers and have terrific rock and roll songs!
Nah. He was correct
@@glenndowling8383 No, troll, he was NOT.
This man is the fucking shit, he knows exactly how to play rock and fucking roll! Keep on rocking man!
The best concert I have been to, thought I was recovering from an autopsy the next day.
Keep on rocking George

Is that your idea of a complement 🤣
Never heard that. About anyone that I've ever met, that has heard his music, think he kicks ass
@@jonmeans2637 He does.
And at least George has a gig, EVERY NIGHT!!!
I was a limo driver for George in Cleveland, OH one night. He is a really nice guy, glad I could meet him and let him know I sing his songs at karaoke. He said " songs?" LMAO
From the man who'se bad to the bone and chooses to drink alone!!! This is by far the manliest song known to man!!!
So true😂
What I love about this song is I have a brother-in-law named Bob. LOL!
getting a haircut tomorrow and getting a new new job Friday, and being a limo driver that got to have George Thorogood as a passenger was a great job!
BLESS YOU SIR ❣️ MUSIC 🎶🎵🎶🎵
I have always loved George and that hard rockin blues sound of his. one thing I would love to see is how he would tear it up on a 3string cigar box guitar since he is clearly a master of the raw gritty sound.
I got a real job, as a hairdresser. Love this song.
and because of the virus I can't get a haircut
he belongs in the rock and roll hal of fame
Yessss! ❤❤❤
Love him .... He's a true rock and roller .... Love that Marshall 335 that's all he's ever played ...
His BEST song! By Far. And they never play it on the radio. WHY?
+Lee Paquet I don´t no. I living in Argentina.
Maybe because it is over 20 tears old now, and the radio caters for the newer teeny bop crap.
It's a great cover
Erwin Montgomery ya that's true but dam you got love old George dam he is thrilled good😎😁.
because of those sad politically correct yankees
Thanks for posting! I really needed this right now.
I wish he still played it like this
one of best im from delaware also god bless you and the destroyers do a show at deer park again getting old and dont like big places remember the stone pony take care ty
The one handed piano playing while holding the sax is the "g"-ist shit I've ever seen
Packed the Vinyls, at MCA, in Pinckneyville till I was blue in the face, still jamming it.
I saw him at Rt 66 Casino in Albuquerque. he was AMAZING!!!!!
wow...i been listening to him since 1979...I can't believe it's been that long. Ted Nugent used to play Gibson Brydland guitars sorta' like George's. They both ROCK!!!
Man if this is the real George thorogood I seen you live and it was amazing just bought your bad to the bone album now it's time to drink alone

Agreed, although I love George Thorogood And The Destroyers, as well as Journey.
Sou fã dessa música top.

thoroughly good.... destroyed me.
Good one, Jon!!!🤣❤
Best song!
Maybe when the Barber Shop opens back up here in Michigan
Stadium show, pfft. I thought you preferred smaller venues; both times I've seen you, it's been less than a thousand and has been absolutely terrific. Less money, but way more fun!
You do what pays the bills. And you do what lets the fans see you perform in any case.

Awesomeness
"' MOVE YOUR MEAT LOSE YOUR SEAT '"☦️
I grant George license to change the lyrics....any time he wants.
You're welcome.
This song absolutely cracks me up.
Oh...nobody asked me? Ha!

To the current generation:
Get your dich cut, and get a real job,
Clean your act up, uncover that knob,
Get it together like your old Uncle Bob's!
🙃
I saw him open for SRV in the late 80s greatest show ever except for maybe Frank Marino at Katinas in Hadley Mass in 87!
Apparently he blew the first line: he sings "since the day I was born" instead of "since the day I left school." It happens.
Myles JS
Yeah, I noticed that as well.
actually he says "from the day i was born"
I prefer this lyric.Why only rebel AFTER you leave school ?
Maybe he intentionally changed it---doesn't really matter.
Down South a click or so from The Tiger's Tale Tavern across from WAWA my New Chatterbox WO !!!

awesome
Good to see Biff got a haircut and a real job.

Gotta love Lonesome George!
Vid quality kinda sucks though.
I think george is the best but anyone else notice he got his words wrong in the first line?

@@cneterer To be fair I can't remember any one song right the way through first time.😂😂
@@Funkyethelred hell, Don Henley couldn't remember lyrics when the Eagles got back together! Glenn Frey laughed on camera when he saw Don was struggling.
At least you know he isn’t lip syncing to his songs. And if you’re in the crowd do you really know..
Thats ROCK N ROLL
I second your motion - if you (or he) needs it.
I know this is an old post of yours, but if you study up on music like this, more or less folk genre, people changed and change the words all the time, it's part of the form and nothing is wrong, the show will go on.

George's isn't a Byrdland, it's an ES125......
The live version is too fast.
+Lee Paquet yes it is. Greetings!
+Lee Paquet A tad bit fast but still effective. Great guitar tone.

The best Rock 'n' Roll always is 👍
Bloody right, it take's away the best from the song, "the sleazyness", and the humor!

We're here to listen to great music. Fuck off with your holier-than-thou opinions. Not one person gives one fuck about you or your ignorant bullshit.
