That's so weird. A friend of mine back then I'm school was deaf and when we hang out he would feel the speakers he always made mention of this song and being a good one for a deaf person to connect with. I hope you didn't take offense that but it just struck me it's quite a coincidence it must be something for that beat...rock on sir or madame ✌️💪♥️🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I was 28 years old when Tesla did this cover. Living with friends. The song came on radio... And when I heard that first chord...I reacted and began singing the song... The teen kids of my house-mates were shocked. They asked..."How the f**k do you know this song?!?! It's only been out a few days!".... I replied... " I've known this song since I was a little kid..."... They did not know it was a cover. lol
I would have used the opportunity to get kids going when they asked me how i knew it because it only been out a few days. I would have pretended that I wrote the song and been making money off it just to get them going and ask questions and see how far i can get them going 😆 lol
shit it's typical of every generation. Many of the most popular songs of OUR generation were covers, from "Nirvana's" Lake of Fire, "Metallica's" Turn the Page (and Die My Darling), to "Rage's" Ghost of Tom Joad
My daddy, RIP💔 I was Born in 82 and this music was everything. You and momma left separately 1 month to the day last year!💔 I’m so sad and lost. Rest in paradise momma and daddy 💔 I MISS YOU both💔
remember they are together and always just a whisper away! and when you hear this song its one of those messages their letting you know theyre spirit is right with you alive and doing fine!❤
@@ivanfavarin6044 Yeah, I mean if they can't play well without everything plugged in, you're right. But the last I checked, Taylor Swift does the same thing Tesla did.
I was around (and long-haired) for the 1971 version; just amused in a sad way that this song is still so relevant. And I'm 67, still long-haired and freaky, doing fine (thank you, Lord)!
@@loudonrebel5383 , it goes deeper than you think. He's really talking about what we, the human race have done to paradise. When we had paradise there was no property, we were truly free
This is one of the single most incredible songs ever created. Reminds me of my dear friend who was given a hard time for his long hair. As he turned it into a positive, having a son, who grew out his hair and they are both musical prodigies welcome every place they go!! Amen brother Lawrence & lovely gifted Sebastian Payan 🎸🎷🎤🎹🎼
My beautiful mom passed away in 2021. Her birthday was on May 27th( 5/27 ), and when I see those numbers, I know she's with me. Just now, this version of this song was playing on the radio and I wasn't paying much attention until a car switched lanes in front of me and I saw the license plate had 527 in it. Just as I noticed the numbers, I noticed the words of the song, and I knew my mom was sending me a message. Signs, signs, everywhere signs....Love you, Mommy, I noticed 😘 ❤
I've heard of the band Tesla, but I knew nothing about you until know. You do this song justice! I was in high school when The Five Man Electrical Band broke this song, and it has always been a favorite of mine. You captured the rebellious nature of this song, with great acoustics and harmonies.
God, I miss back in the day, great music, the best blow, when I was young, skinny, untamed. Loved Tesla then, love them still. Saw them a couple of months ago (July, 2022) and they still sound great. I've changed but this awesome music hasn't.
This was playing on my high school age daughter’s radio. I started singing along. She said “Daddy! You like this song?” “Oh yes mija,” I said, “and I loved it twenty years ago too.”
I used to love this band when I was 13, especially this concert. I watched it often on VHS. i remember how much it would calm me when I needed it most.
Tesla should get paid by mtv unplugged for pretty much inventing this format. For that time anyway, we played the shit out of this, around the time i was picking up the guitar, and this album popped into my head today, 16 years old when this came out. Peace
Tesla is Awesome!! Sern Tesla in Atlanta,GA with LA Guns and Great White in 1990's! Phenomenal!! Tesla needs to Come To Ft.Bragg (Ft.Liberty) Our US Army (,82nd Airborne) Would Really Love And Need This Music!! Our Soldiers Are The Top!! And Tesla You Could Be The Icing!!!
Sal Paradise I hate to tell you but your wrong. Nirvana did it in 93. Many other bands such as Tesla and Pearl Jam did it way before them. Not saying that Nirvana’s performance wasn’t amazing but they didn’t start the craze lol
There have been many artists who have given "unplugged" performances throughout the years but the whole unplugged craze of the 90s was actually started in 1989 when MTV began the series MTV Unplugged. MTV started the unplugged series after Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora performed an unplugged version of Living on a Prayer and Wanted Dead or Alive at the MTV Music Awards in 1989. It was so popular MTV started the unplugged series 3 months later.
I absolutely will put the guy in the hall of fame for music. One of the first musicians I heard on MTV. You can probably guess the song that I heard. Today, there is no musianshup on albums. So, there will never be another album like this.
I was one of them 80's- 90s rock fan. Seen every band from ratt to bon jovi van Halen, motley crue. Def Leppard. Whitesnake and about 300 more and tesla was on there mechanical. Resonance album tour. I sware they were the best band I seen during out of the " hair" bands. They were badass no doubt
The 6th here in monroe michigan they are coming to our amazing monroe county fair with firehouse absolutely gonna be amazing we are 30 miles outside detroit I've been listening to them since I was like 12 and I'm 47 my first time seeing them I just cant wait always been a fave band forever cant wait
Me and husband love this song. The last almost two years we sing the lyrics too this song a lot. A lot of sighs the last two years. Do this , do that can’t u read all the sighs saying wear a mask, get a shot, social distance, wash ur hands, quarantine if exposed, take a test, ect. Being able too get on with life after getting shot, wearing masks for two years, social distance, ect , imagine that!
They are soooo under rated. Probably a Top 10 band in My 60 years of Rocking!
Top 10? That's for music for Legends, though.
Tesla, great group love it since 90' I' m 65 now
I can see you now❤
59 ❤@@patriciosilvarobalino9832
I tell this to my wife every time they come on the radio. They should be way bigger than they are. I f'n love this band
I played this at my husband's funeral. It was his favorite song.
May he R.I.P.
How special it must have been. God bless!
Not this version.
Awesome, he'll be listening to it when you get there , hopefully it's a long time from now
Ugh, my sister too . 1 year ago today. 😢
It's been 31 years now, and I still love this performance. Is it time to call it legendary yet?
It's time!
Woah! It's been that long? Good Lord I am getting old. I know my parents will laugh as the Five Man Electric Band sang this earlier. 😂
One of the best albums all time.
Legend (wait for it...) dary
Exactly! And before the overdosed mtv unplugged time😏👍
I’m a deaf musician and this is one of the first songs I learned to play on acoustic guitar. One of my all time favorite songs!

Great song, isn't it????
I saw a sign the other day that said, "The employee shortage is so bad right now, long haired freaky people can now apply." ...😂
Lol
@Jackie Stob Tesla the band got their name from Nikola Tesla, the inventor. so did Elon.
@@lynncohen2897 before that they were known as the Fossil Fuel Band.
So I might have a chance
The freaky boy!!!
Good one!👍👍👍
I’m 58! And still ROCKING WITH YA ALL, PLEASE don’t forget me!
January 2024, anyone out there, still rocking
Saw this live a few weeks ago... still ROCKS
Reporting for duty sir
🤘🤘🤘
I can reed lol
I'm rocking it in April. I didn't really appreciate this band until now. Well I'm old 58 and haven't always kept up
Thank you Lord for thinking about me, I’m alive and doing the best I can by the grace of God. This song still rocks.
No god need it to rock
@@youneedhelp6902 th-cam.com/video/qrn6GcDMHBY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=h6GHSx-86Fo5WzNF
Probably the most underrated bands in our history.... Awesome in concert 🎉
I said Thank you, Lord, for thinkin' 'bout me, I'm alive and doin' fine
Love that line.
💖 Amen...Thank You, Lord 😊
Amen baby!
Now that I'm 60, I am moved to tears at times with that line

Tesla didn't do the original intro. Fine job just the same.
Cover of the Five Man Electrical Bands top 40 hit . The band was formed in Ontario , Canada.
Excellent musicians...I was very impressed...I knew a couple of song & so did my husband. We are from 2 different Countries. Bolivia & Colombia

So sorry for your losses. Obviously, they loved each other so much that they wanted to go together. Hugsssssss.
Just saw them last night in Durham NC!
1990 sure doesn't feel like 33 years ago :( it's amazing how fast life goes by. Enjoy every moment my friends. Still love this cover by tesla.
Those days are over, bands don’t have to set up silly unplugged concerts for credits.
@@ivanfavarin6044 Yeah, I mean if they can't play well without everything plugged in, you're right. But the last I checked, Taylor Swift does the same thing Tesla did.
Así será Amigó
Yep, me too, it's so good.
this is a nice *COVER of the 1970 hit song by Five Man Electrical Band.* NOT The Original Recording Release but a well done *COVER Song!*
I remember this when I was in my late teens, god I wish I could go back 😢 life was so easier back then 😢
you can hit reset - you decide - decide who you want to be and do it - you can !!!
I'll say to that!!
Me too ❤

Thank ya Mike!! i know
Sad that they think they have a right to tell people what to do on their property.

My brother Todd was at this show. Todd introduced me to Tesla's music. Thanks bro. RIP.
I just woke up this morning with this song playing in my head. Maybe it's a sign?
🤣
Me too
Somebody posted a snip on FB and here I am.
This album is the REAL UNPLUGGED. LEGEND

Hellyes great band
Thirty years later and I'm still trying to figure out why the tears start flowing when I listen to this song.
Same here. Love this song. Just as relavent today as when it came out
Same
Omg, I just sat here and cried and asked why do I always cry with this song? 🤷🏻♀️
I think it’s because there’s a lot of truth in the words, my friend. 🖤
I'm with ya brother
I am still jammin to this
God, I miss back in the day, great music, the best blow, when I was young, skinny, untamed. Loved Tesla then, love them still. Saw them a couple of months ago (July, 2022) and they still sound great. I've changed but this awesome music hasn't.

My husband passed away 12 weeks ago but he loved Randy and I feel he's with him in heaven |rocking out. I love you baby
God.. I’m randomly jammin this tonite from the 80’s .. Lovin old music and the Lattes 😂
Word has it he still looks like a fine outstanding young man.😊My favorite song ever!❤
Music 🎶 is the window to our soul.. 😊❤❤
You are absolutely right
Great cover of the 1971 hit 'Signs' by the Canadian group: 5 Man Electrical Band.
Thank you Lord ,for thinking about me, I'm alive, and doin fine!
🙏
This song goes out e Chris he is in West Palm Beach FL I hope he is doing good me I am in miamifl 🤟🤟🤟🥰🤟🤟
I used to love this band when I was 13, especially this concert. I watched it often on VHS. i remember how much it would calm me when I needed it most.
My favorite band from the 80s.....pushing 50, and still jamming this
One of the greatest songs in rock history.
Still relevant 11/2023
At least 20 years ago, my sister and I took our girls to there concert... yep, Telsa in Iowa... wow!
I was around for the original and this cover gets full marks for presentation. Absolutely nailed it.
Tesla should get paid by mtv unplugged for pretty much inventing this format. For that time anyway, we played the shit out of this, around the time i was picking up the guitar, and this album popped into my head today, 16 years old when this came out. Peace
I know it's a cover but damn this song has stuck in my brain for decades this song is perfect!
I hate covers, but this is damned good
Great tune. I believe this is what inspired the mtv unplugged shows.
The album was called 'a five man acoustical jam'. Played it 10000 times. Or more!
At the ripe age of 10, I remember vibing with my dad to this song. I’m now 17, and I absolutely adore this song. Good memories.
I just simply love this song
I could listen to it all day
So much truth in the words to this great song.
Tesla is Awesome!! Sern Tesla in Atlanta,GA with LA Guns and Great White in 1990's! Phenomenal!! Tesla needs to Come To Ft.Bragg (Ft.Liberty) Our US Army (,82nd Airborne) Would Really Love And Need This Music!! Our Soldiers Are The Top!! And Tesla You Could Be The Icing!!!
I enjoy listening to this song sine the 80’s all their songs are great!
This deserves 2 billion views.
My 1st rock band album ever, 5 man with accoustical jam. Around 1990
Fucking 90s, so many great bands
80s & 90s
This was my Dad's favorite group and song before he left us in 2012 to stage four lung cancer but I know that he's always with me in my heart forever
A really good cover of a classic.
I never heard Tesla sing this song. Five Man Electrical Band sang this back in 1970. I love that song but think these guys did a great job!
There is always so much praise for Frank as a guitar player but Tommy was equally great!
They all were
Their #8 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 from early 1991
THESE guys started the "unplugged" craze of the early 90s ....dont let anyone fool you.
Best band ever.
No they didn't.... Nirvana did.

Spokane, Wa
Great song!! Great band!! Miss the 90's!!
One of my favorite renditions of this song ever. I've listened to it since it was released a million times but it never gets old. Bravo!
I remember this when I was 15...summer of 1990...great memories...this song is PURE POETRY
I was 13. I listened to them & other rock.bands on MTV & KNAC in Los Angeles
Preach great times movies and music
I don’t think I ever heard of Tesla but I remember the 1971 original but I gotta say I think I like this one better , where are they now ?
It's also a remake. The original is by Five Man Electrical Band.
You said it. I was 10. It’s funny how good music and activate those good feelings from the past
I was 12 years old when this hit. 45 years old now still love it
This song takes me back to the days I had a mullet, a Camaro, and a Tesla tape.
These thought are burning in the back of my mind todayb
I have long hair and got hired at Chick fil A. So my mom told me to listen to this song. I’ve been playing it ever since. 🤘
I absolutely will put the guy in the hall of fame for music. One of the first musicians I heard on MTV. You can probably guess the song that I heard. Today, there is no musianshup on albums. So, there will never be another album like this.
I saw them about 3 years ago at the Myth in Minnesota. Still awesome 😎👍 as ever!
Kisses and hugs I'm 63 oct 26 and still listening to my favorite band just love it tyvm I'm in love from a Canadian patriot 🇨🇦❤🌹🌹
Absolutely my favorite unplugged gig! Tesla is the magic!
Tesla is exactly the band that we need in 2022.
Thanks to power outlets everywhere
This is still on my jam riding down the road in my truck! I seen them in 1990!! Awesome band and still going strong! Keep on rocking guys!!! 🤠👍🤘🎸🤘🍻🍻🍻
It's a GREAT drive song!
This recording was used as the single release. Jeff nails it to a tee. Classic rock.
One of the best rock songs......ever made.

Those were awesome years!
I was one of them 80's- 90s rock fan. Seen every band from ratt to bon jovi van Halen, motley crue. Def Leppard. Whitesnake and about 300 more and tesla was on there mechanical. Resonance album tour. I sware they were the best band I seen during out of the " hair" bands. They were badass no doubt

Will always be a song that reminds me of my dad! Jonny 5 alive!
Man this is the template that every unplugged should be judged by.
