God do we need this sentiment so badly in 2024!!!
The original is one of my most favourite songs, but I love what the other musicians bring to this version. It very much suits Nick in His later years. Just lovely.
I just saw Nick and Los Straitjackets at the Tarrytown Theater this past 6/25/24, Tarrytown NY, Incredible Concert!
One of the UK's greatest songwriters on one of the USA's best radio stations. Perfect!
Beautiful. One of the greatest songs ever. Dislikes are you kidding?
This the song I every hear for long time he should get a Grammy for this.
Those dislikes are from the dark side of insanity.
@@chocloditelensman Surely everyone wearing a mask should get a big like?

Couldn’t agree more!!
great song beautifully sung as ever by the maestro.........who doesn't like this ?
Magas? Brexiters?
Great song. Thanks Nick.
Perfect song for the times we're in now.
Boy do we need this now! Summer 2022. Crazy times. 😢
Ditto from 2024
"(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding", I think we could all take a big dose of Peace, Love and Understanding nowadays. Nick's slowed down version with Los Straitjackets makes this song more insightful and probably more relevant for today. Elvis's version is more "Protest Song Style". I love both but they almost take on a different meaning.
I remember my last talk with my dad before he died. He was a 3 tour Vietnam Vet and I was about to retire after 26 years in the military. I had a pretty hard heart and held some grudges that were in retrospect useless and hurt me more than anyone else. He told me to start forgiving people regardless of who was right or wrong in my mind and move on with my life. When I play this I often think how much better my life has become because ultimately I'm the only one I can change, but I can walk out the door each day and try to be better. You have to try. Forgiveness is a powerful thing. My life is so much better now.
Sure I still have bad days, but as the great Ray Wylie Hubbard said "The days I keep my gratitude above my expectations, I have pretty good days"
AMEN .!. Thank You Jeff .!.
i appreciate Your Father for his service to this country , and for his shared message , today through you , from Our Father ..
MGB and keep us all
Very well said!
Oh crap I’ve already like this once can I like it like you know 100 times more?
😊😊😊
one of my fav songs - the dude is a living legend.
scottrusling . Amen 🙏
omg we are old but still cool
He really is great. ❤❤
In my toughest times I sing this song. It’s always helped.
Whoa .. B .. i have so often hummed the chorus to myself .. softly. alone. in my mind.
MGB and keep us all
I have played this version 20 times this week. Nick Lowe & Los Straight Jackets... trying to learn it on my ukelele. It's perfect.
I just played it on my ukulele, in open C tuning but key of G. It works really well. How's yours sound?
Beautiful, if only we could all live this
Lovely version. Played this recently and played it with a band in the 80s. Love this song and this version is great !
Elvis may have made this song well known, but it's Nick's song. His versions are great!!
My very thought exactly. And this is his own to perform so beautifully!
I like the way Nick does this better.
Best version ever.
They did this song together this week on tour. I was second row
@@danneumann3274I'm seeing them Friday. I'm guessing they'll play it then.
I love the song , and I love nick Lowe doing it, the orohinal.
One of our greatest living songwriters! He is an international treasure!
Saw Nick Lowe and Los Straitjackets two nights ago. This song, and the entire show, were terrific. Don't miss the tour if they come to your town.
Saw Nick & the Boys last night. What a superior show. They had fun on stage and we had fun in the audience. It is a privilege to see your show Nick!
Love Nick’s thumb-strum. He’s a great understated rhythm player.😎😁
This is/was one of my all-time favorites! 👀👩🦳
Old song still relevent. I love nicks versions the best. Soulful.
Reaches my heart. Ty Nick!
An amazing song by one of the greats….rock on Nick.
Aw…brings a tear to one's eye. Ian "Mac" McLagan was to open for Nick on his
"Quality Street" tour, Dec. 2014. He died of a stroke, and Nick said such wonderful things about him on the tour. Good on ya, Nick. 'Love this version by the way.
I Had honor and pleasure to have a conversation With Mr. Ian Mac lagan a really wonderful person. I Will Remember That night forever. RIP IAN
I was today years old when I found out Nick wrote this.... I'm 52🤭
That Fender and Nick is all I need. Heaven🙏🏻🕉
Sending out peace love and understanding to the world! We will get through these troubled times. Thank you for posting this song ❤️
Amazing song, master Nick. Brinsley S., Rockpile, Ry Cooder, Little Village, Costello....how many adventures!!!
What a great anthem for a new 18-24 party. Absolutely beautiful melody. So simple and sincere and, sadly, forever relevant. .
Nick still RULES.
Wow unbelievably great !!!!!!! So nice
Thank you, Nick.
Beautiful tribute from one genius to another, RIP IM
Beauty of a rendition. (who would downvote this?)
So him play his show at a comedy club/restaurant place in san francisco about 1984 with only table seating like 2 or 3 to a table.he had a band with Paul carrok from Mike and the mechanics .he just had some hits too so they shared taking lead voals.great.he was really loud rocking out and super skinny.probably just fast metabolism.lol
Hey, Nick wrote it! That's about as sincere as you can get. World on the edge of a great war...this one may really be the "war to end all wars!"
Engelbert humperdnick this is my song
Just so true. Thank you nick.
What a song! Had almost forgotten about this and so delighted to have rediscovered it, thanks both Nick and Elvis, Stu X
Love this guy. Great artist.
このテイクほんとに好き
何回も見てる
Nick Lowe rocks. So does Ian. Love you guys.
We had Nick at our theatre in Phoenixville, Pa. He was a really nice guy and did a terrific show.
i love this song so much.
Los Straitjackets both rock and roll. Superb!
The beauty of music...Thanks Nick.
I saw the Nick Lowe / Los Straitjackets show in Madison Wi last night and it was awesome! Great mix of music and fun! The opening band the Cactus Blosoms was great too!
Los Staitjackets and Nick Lowe. A dichotomy that created something new. Rockula is cruel to be kind
An absolutely gorgeous interpretation
nice song thanks nike lowe😍😍
I once played "Heart Of The City" ten times in a row at full volume.
Great Nick Lowe. I love this song
This has been my theme song since 1974 at age 10...
Makes even more sense today
Beautiful.
Takes me back to '78 when I worked for the turtle dome and wondered "who is Elvis Costello and Nick lowe?"
Beautiful!
Saw him live with Rockpile. Great artist.
Light and airy rhythm section, with Nick's sweet voice on top. Soooo tasty!
Those are the same glasses Buddy Holly wore, and the same model of Gibson acoustic guitar Buddy played on many of his hits. A wonderful way to pay tribute to one of his heroes.
Same style. The Glasses are in Clear Lake, IA, where the plane crashed. They were only recently recovered out of the field. They are now in The Surf Ball Room.
Thank You!
An amazing song!!!❤
The strongest of Melody Maker！
Mr.Nick Lowe is the best-looking old man! Bat he is cool though he was young. from japan
NIKKE0725 I see your Japan and raise you three Audrey Hepburns and the Comoros Islands.
Paul Burch and Jack Silverman sang off Jim Ridley with this song in a Murfreesboro church one day in 2016. The beauty of their gesture, and of the service altogether, will stay with me for the rest of my days.
Beautiful. Thank you for posting.
que grande Nick Lowe !!!!!!!!! amo esta canción ,no me canso de escucharla.
Oh my. That was wonderful. Thank you!
Excellent!!
oh time, time is a hard taskmaster. this makes me cry too.
❤❤❤❤❤
Yeah !!! Mr Nick Lowe.... thanks so long
did not know that Nick wrote this, Brilliant
A Million Little Things, brought me here. I love this version.
Glad you found us! Thanks for watching. If you enjoy Nick Lowe, we recently filmed an entire concert: th-cam.com/video/SFIOlgwjdzc/w-d-xo.html
A song for the ages.
Genius ..again
Beautiful! It's simply beautiful!
Like a Prayer…
What a great way to start off a New Year! Thanks for the great tune Nick! And a great job backing him up L.S.!
Respect
This, the Elvis Costello version and the Sharon van Etten/Joshua version are all worth listening to. Folksy, rock and whimsy....
what a gem!
I couldnt help but to share this to my social media...the words are lovely as well as thought provoking considering the current political state of the world.
Couldn't have put it any better myself. Beautiful song
Yup.
I did the same ))
WHOA .. yea, the political unrest today with the opening of doors to war ..
NOW .. Our own US , with 18,000 children in cages on the southern border (3.31.21) and the bombing of Syria (2.2021) and the Billions of dollars in Federal and State Government buildings destroyed (2020) , not to mention the cities and livelihoods AND more than two dozen murders associated with safe zones and peaceful 'places' (2020) ..
Political Unrest .. I see it as dis ease .. a social dis ease ..
MGB and keep us all
Timeless song Nick's written here. I must admit that I'm fearful for Nick everytime they cut to the guys in the lucha libre masks.
That's a great great song.
great song.
marvelous ..
Merry Christmas to all!
A brilliant song also written with the fabulous Ian Gomm
I think Gomm co-wrote Cruel to Be Kind not this song???
executivesteps he wrote both with Nick Lowe but Nick got full credit
beautiful vocal
Thanke Nick!
I love this super creatve and cool man. Such a gem!
I love this music thanke you nik low😍😍😍😍
The originater. Beautiful
The song is so void of false pretense the masked musicians detract not one iota from the message. How is that for understanding? Love this.
just awesome. thanks Nick!
Needed this today.
A song for our times. All times. Beats the shit out of Imagine.
I'm still giggling about the comment but it's so true!
i love this song omg
