No the highlight was the genuine guitarist playing the strat. The electric one dummies. The white guy stood across the room. Ed can’t play that fast for shit. Dylan wrote it, jimmy smashed it. Hopefully this would of taken some new people to the great original versions. This is really shit. Shows the state of society
Gettin old, but still one of my favourit colabos ever. Represent true music. Rock, Rap, true artists, studio session. Just true love for the art of music. How fkn awesome would it be seeing those guys making a song today 💥
the way Ed looked at Devlin when he said "my new single" was priceless. Ed should do a cover of thes song on his own, love the vocals & guitar riffs at "barefoot servants too"
As a guitarist who loves Jimi Hendrix, and a vocalist who loves Ed Sheeran, and is inspired by both of them, I really like the rap verses in this song, I think it's a nice extension of what the song's lyrics. The lines are hard as hell, and I really like his performance. My favorite version of the song is easily still the Hendrix version but sometimes I feel there are too many guitar solos in his version and not enough focus on the lyrics. I like how Delvin's version focuses more on lyrics, because the lyrics are pretty hardcore, both the main lyrics and Delvin's added lyrics. And don't forget this is Delvin's arrangement of the song, it was his idea to do this. Delvin brought on Ed Sheeran to do vocals for his cover, not the other way around. Ed probably wouldn't have thought to even do this if Delvin didn't ask him to be on the project. But if you feel that strongly about it, there are versions of this song with no rap. Here, knock yourself out. ruclips.net/video/fpINXELRbFo/видео.html
This beat is sick and Devlin raps about real shit; why is everyone complaining? Oh yeah its because you thought you were so sick in school just cos you knew who Jimi Hendrix was... grow up
some songs just should not be covered, some songs are perfectly good the way they are, this was one of these songs. These three have proven me wrong, they have not only covered but they have modernised it, made it there own, taken a perfectly good song and made it into another equally as good song. I don't like Devlin, nor am I a massive fan of Ed Sheeran, but this is a great song and it is very well done. People who don't like it, grow up and enjoy!
Ed makes all kind of music so perfect!! I wanna see him do one rock or alternative album, I mean all song for one album. But what he is doing for each album is so variety, difference and so.... Ed!!
He's saying its his new Single release its not his song an we all no that. I LIKE IT just dont repeat everything Ed says Rapper Dude except for 'All along the Watchtower that sounds mad
@@cameronangel5090 3:34 he literally says the line you were complaining about him not saying, people sure can knit pick without really listening, this cover is great for what it is, a new vision of a beautiful classic, dope.
Haters gon' hate. This is amazing. I love the way Dev looks like he's being attacked by wasps. Ed looks adorable with a bigger guitar and singing is of course spot on as usual -3 and Lab produced this and it's great. Wrong Direction ftw -3
Live lounge is sick . . . .the synergy here is palpable. . . .many great artists express their soul with hand gestures or facial expressions. ever see Joe Cocker perform. . .the original "mad dogs & Englishmen" with Leon Russell. . . .keep on keepin on Devlin. . . . .Willy USA
what a trio! all so talented in different ways.... Amazing song, so far my best for 2012, love this one more then the original. And why so many haters, always!!! Pathetic
If you don't like this song, don't listen to it. I honestly didn't like it, but listened to it a few times because of Ed. After it played 3 or 4 times, I began to appreciate the other parts too. Lovely song!
Well said mate. I'm sick of these so called classic music fans, who think that if a musician remakes a classic song, its automatically 'ruined', without even giving it a chance. Plain ignorance
@@M17_Max nah he didn’t but he brought his vision and creation to life through a classic we all love, it was different and should be appreciated as a new song because it was a brand new collaboration.
Being someone who listens pretty much only rock music (my iTunes contains 95% rock and related genres) - I rate this version a lot. Devlin is actually a great rapper with some amazing messages, he doesn't just talk about drugs and the women he's f*cked or the cars he got; he's real. This cover is fantastic as it brings genres together instead of keeping them apart and I'm sure Dylan and Hendrix would have welcomed that.
Things I remember after watching this video: -Labrinth is in the back but doing an awesome job. -Ed Sheeran is awesome. -DEVLIN IS NOT ABLE TO CONTROL HIS UNCONTROLLABLY FLAPPING WINGS
Kyle Norcliffe Devlin is more lyrically inclined then anyone in that recording booth. That’s saying something when the booth also includes Labyrinth and Ed Sheehan.
Such a shame that people stay stuck in their stiff vision of "respect for the classics" and can't stand any idea of style crossovers. I'm sad for you guys, you might not feel the true passion for music.
Temitayo Awoniyi Think you'll find it is Hendrix song. He wrote it abd sung it too. Dylan just covered it and Dylan also admitted Hendricks version is better.
SuperFreshprince007 Um, I think I'll find its a Dylan song which Hendrix covered. And yes Dylan admitted the cover was better. Just Google it. It's not that hard to find the right information.
Oh right sorry I always thought that it was Hendrix that wrote the song?! Well now I know otherwise. Hendrix's version is a lot better then Dylan's though!
You aren't by a long shot...this thing shouldn't work, but it does...people dont want to hear this, but if Hendrix were alive today, he would have rap overlays and autotune and sampling and all that...I guarantee he would
Brian Raney Hendrix didn’t even write the song, he did the best version but Bob Dylan originally wrote the song. They need to stay away from classic songs if all they’re gonna do is change the verses and add rappers on it. It takes away the original and feeling it gave.
I love the look that Ed gave Devlin when he said "my new single"
Dat look. xD
that look was priceless!
Lmfao his face
i cried lmfaooooo
Ed clearly doesn't like him lmao
would love to see Ed do a cover of All Along The Watchtower. He was the highlight of the song
No the highlight was the genuine guitarist playing the strat. The electric one dummies. The white guy stood across the room. Ed can’t play that fast for shit. Dylan wrote it, jimmy smashed it. Hopefully this would of taken some new people to the great original versions. This is really shit. Shows the state of society
Devlin + ed = masterpiece
Gettin old, but still one of my favourit colabos ever. Represent true music. Rock, Rap, true artists, studio session. Just true love for the art of music. How fkn awesome would it be seeing those guys making a song today 💥
They just did 😊
Labrinth is providing excellent back-up vocals making Ed sound even better, he's also adding little notes too just for effect.
the way Ed looked at Devlin when he said "my new single" was priceless. Ed should do a cover of thes song on his own, love the vocals & guitar riffs at "barefoot servants too"
It is devlins single featuring Ed sheeran lol it’s a fair statement to make but yeah his face was like, bruh, our single come on wtf?
'my new single'
I love Dylan's original, I love Hendrix's cover, and I love this one.
They're all great!
I am old, but I liked it a lot, new way to give life to it.. to riders.. They make the old and the new fit together.
I felt like I was watching a bird trying to fly for the first time with all those arm movements
Cant believe this was 10 yr ago absolute legends
Ed and Devlin make a badass combo musically.
Declining is a twat
Agreed... I love the official video for this too!
Jen J devlin is a prick
This is one of the best covers ive ever heard quite frankly because its totally different, but alot alike at the same time.
Really wish Ed Sheeran would complete cover the song by himself
Me twoo
carolina reader exact what i think...
Grant Story true but he could do this song justice the whole way through because this isn’t a rap song haha
So true

Labrinth is so underrated is this 😩😩😩 must have listened to this song 100 times 🔥 🔥
Some respect for the electric guitarist? Damn good stuff.
ed slayed this. his voice is just fkin awesome
Yeah.
Devlin; amazing as allways
Ed; amazing, perfect, couldnt have performed better
This Devlin is Great guy
Ed is the only the reason why i listened to this
Потрясающие!❤
a great update on an old song !! bring old music into the 2ooo+
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEEE DEVLIN!!!
buzzing to see devlin in november!
Love Devlin!! Love Ed!! Love Labrinth!! Love this collab!
"My new single"
I know right that song came out in 1968
I can't believe it was not specified that this song is a cover.
It’s a sample you muppet
Sam abrams hear hear!
@@samabrahams3705 People in this comment section seen to not know what sample means
Ed Sheeran singing All Along The Watchtower. My life is complete.
Eds gone so mainstream with his full size guitar and beard .. ! Only kiddin he's the man
This beat is sick and Devlin raps about real shit; why is everyone complaining? Oh yeah its because you thought you were so sick in school just cos you knew who Jimi Hendrix was... grow up
Love this so much but jimmy will always be best I love Ed!!!!

They are still my fav trio
so friggin good!
not at all in good, do yourself a favor and listen to the bob dylan version and the jimi hendrix version. Now that good shit.
Ed makes all kind of music so perfect!!
I wanna see him do one rock or alternative album, I mean all song for one album.
But what he is doing for each album is so variety, difference and so.... Ed!!
Who is watching in 2024?
Honestly what does Devlin even bring to this song? Ed is the whole show.
I like this. I like the original. I hate that Devlin called it his 'New Single.'
Retarded Camel The "original"? Do you mean the Hendrix cover, or the actual original by Bob Dylan?
Hendrix never said that was his song... This guy looks like he meant that...
Well it's not the same as jimmy or bob and it's his new song being the hint we all no its a cover of a cover but it a new cover
He's saying its his new Single release its not his song an we all no that. I LIKE IT just dont repeat everything Ed says Rapper Dude except for 'All along the Watchtower that sounds mad
@@cameronangel5090 3:34 he literally says the line you were complaining about him not saying, people sure can knit pick without really listening, this cover is great for what it is, a new vision of a beautiful classic, dope.
Perfect example of how to FUCK UP a classic!
I never get tired of watching this.. its class!
Move on don't dwell on the past. I'm 52 & I love the new stuff as well as keeping the old stuff niice on Dev
Haters gon' hate. This is amazing. I love the way Dev looks like he's being attacked by wasps. Ed looks adorable with a bigger guitar and singing is of course spot on as usual -3 and Lab produced this and it's great.
Wrong Direction ftw -3
This is Princess and I like your comments 😂
My favorite thing that people always say when it's a live Devlin video is "yeah Devlin, fight those invisible ninjas" it just makes me laugh
Thanks man I was the lass with a jumper lacoste 🐊 yellow planet n a savage friendship
This song is what it is, three good friends coming together to make an awesome song
I feel like I'm the only one in here who enjoyed this...
No
+Andreea Climatiano Well there's the two of us
Nope... this was awesome. There's just a lot of haters everywhere! Ignore them 😘
+Andreea Climatiano nope its good
+Mateo Montenegro What kind of shit attitude do you have towards music, when you can compare two versions that are so different?
This give me shivers.. The good kind
frickin love live lounge .
Live lounge is sick . . . .the synergy here is palpable. . . .many great artists express their soul with hand gestures or facial expressions. ever see Joe Cocker perform. . .the original "mad dogs & Englishmen" with Leon Russell. . . .keep on keepin on Devlin. . . . .Willy USA
am i the only one who really likes this song??
no, most people here love the song, they just prefer the original
1:25 Eds voice suits the song so well, he’s gotta do a cover by himself.
what a trio! all so talented in different ways.... Amazing song, so far my best for 2012, love this one more then the original. And why so many haters, always!!! Pathetic
This song has never suffered a horrible interpretation, and this is proof. From Bob, to Jimi, all the way to these 3, it'll never die.
Ed and Labrinth sound so good together. Is there any genre Ed Sheeran can’t do?
If you don't like this song, don't listen to it. I honestly didn't like it, but listened to it a few times because of Ed. After it played 3 or 4 times, I began to appreciate the other parts too. Lovely song!
still fucking awesome that
Well said mate. I'm sick of these so called classic music fans, who think that if a musician remakes a classic song, its automatically 'ruined', without even giving it a chance. Plain ignorance
Really? Your new single? Really? REALLY?!
Yeah man he released it about 50 years ago under the name Bob Dylan, then a couple days later as Jimi Hendrix. I guess we forgot... xD
@@M17_Max nah he didn’t but he brought his vision and creation to life through a classic we all love, it was different and should be appreciated as a new song because it was a brand new collaboration.
Ha
Can you believe there is an instrumental version of this? The guy is a joke. It's basically "his new single" without him on it ha ha
This would have been better if Devlin would have stopped repeating what ed said but good song though x
Agreed!
yeh what a tune and theres always gona b better and better every track they all do together init iloves all there songs
I'm from Brazil, and I love this music!
Being someone who listens pretty much only rock music (my iTunes contains 95% rock and related genres) - I rate this version a lot. Devlin is actually a great rapper with some amazing messages, he doesn't just talk about drugs and the women he's f*cked or the cars he got; he's real.

what you know about rap music, i thought you only listen rock
The harmonies at 3:12. Something else... Remember guys it's different not 'shit' aha
Absolutely cool this instrumental
Devlin 4life, class
Yeah, BUT Hendrix's version is the 'Gold Standard.' Dylan loved Jimi's version so much that he even changed his own original version!
ed's part of bob dylan's song is great but the rest is ... i dont have words for this shit
Jimi Hendrix made the song what it is..huge respect for Bob Dylan and his original version but Hendrix takes the cake
This took me back to when I was like 16💖
Who wound not like this video they all great singers and great song
Sheeran, Labrinth and the band are great.
Sheeran did it justice but I'm not a fan of Devlin over such a classic.
agreed, He did a good job but it just doesn't fit this song.
This rapper hack ruined the cover.
@@seniorjr.9234 beg to differ I think it's siiiiiik. But we all have opinions
By far the greatest Live Lounge.
your powers of observation are amazing.
Things I remember after watching this video:
-Labrinth is in the back but doing an awesome job.
-Ed Sheeran is awesome.
-DEVLIN IS NOT ABLE TO CONTROL HIS UNCONTROLLABLY FLAPPING WINGS
I love Ed Sheerans voice he should cover this song along :/
these 3 together should just make an album... they're amazing
This is BADASSS...
If there is no rap there this song maybe batter.
Batter is for cookies
MomotheFuzzyUnicorn and pancakes :)
Well there's rap in it so get over it.
does this guy know that bob Dylan did it first because ed sheeran seems like he does hahaha
....try jimmy Hendrix
love this lets hope dev continues to put out top music
Wow brilliant!
I love Bob Dylan and Hendrix but I still think This is a top cover of the song
off yourself
.................how?
Remove the rapping dude and keep Ed and Labrinth=D.
+Sarah Van Norman then listen to the 100 other covers of this song or the original
I agree
YEEES
Dumb bitch
Love this!
It's a London ting! It's a grower.... But once your there... Love it.
Would be great cover if not for the rap.
Someone edit out the rapping
Someone edit out this twats post!
Or just replace the rapper with a better rapper let’s say uhhhhhhh Eminem
Kyle Norcliffe cmon man devlins a poet do you not take note of the lyrics
Kyle Norcliffe Devlin is more lyrically inclined then anyone in that recording booth. That’s saying something when the booth also includes Labyrinth and Ed Sheehan.
finally a person names devlin (just go with it movie)
loving this song
instrumental version is fine, I can see Ed pull off some cover alone, but the rest is pure shit
Such a shame that people stay stuck in their stiff vision of "respect for the classics" and can't stand any idea of style crossovers. I'm sad for you guys, you might not feel the true passion for music.
So good!!!
i can't stop listeing to this oomg i love it so much
YOUR NEW SONG???? NO! go back to the roots and listen to the great original by Jimmy Hendrix!!! (called: All Along The Watchtower)
Think you'll find its a Bob Dylan song. Simmer down.
oh, really? thanx for the information!
Temitayo Awoniyi Think you'll find it is Hendrix song. He wrote it abd sung it too. Dylan just covered it and Dylan also admitted Hendricks version is better.
SuperFreshprince007 Um, I think I'll find its a Dylan song which Hendrix covered. And yes Dylan admitted the cover was better.

Oh right sorry I always thought that it was Hendrix that wrote the song?! Well now I know otherwise. Hendrix's version is a lot better then Dylan's though!
I can't be the only one thinking the rapper did a good job too
You aren't by a long shot...this thing shouldn't work, but it does...people dont want to hear this, but if Hendrix were alive today, he would have rap overlays and autotune and sampling and all that...I guarantee he would
YES
he died too young :(
U were right until you got to autotune, sorry, but no, he wouldn't
Brian Raney Hendrix didn’t even write the song, he did the best version but Bob Dylan originally wrote the song. They need to stay away from classic songs if all they’re gonna do is change the verses and add rappers on it. It takes away the original and feeling it gave.
i really enjoyed this a lot.
Been waiting for this!
Ed is the only good thing in this song!! And can't he at least say 'cover'?!?!
kind of ruined the song, but whatever
improved more like
Autistic I think he means but either way that's horrible, then again a compliment because autistic people are extremely smart
Agreed! This remade version he fucking stole to claim "his new single" is fucking terrible! I am surprised Ed Sheeran did this SHAT! Fucking TERRIBLE!
101stRakkasan Another Sheeran fan unaware of his past I see.
simply amazing !
Love this
