And they just wrote standard letters to people who started a campaign to get him inducted not too long before he died. As if he was a random nobody being suggested by a handful of ignorant claqueurs. The man had a career that's longer and had more ups and downs than half a dozen other artists taken together.
Joe had a sad life in his younger rears. Was a hardcore alcoholic. The later got sober, married and lived a beautiful life. I was so happy for him! I love joe!
Met this "Beautiful" man in '86 with only two other people in the room and got to go to his "You Can Leave Your Hat On" video shoot. Such a great experience for me. I will never forget every part of that afternoon. He was so polite and charming. R.I.P. Joe!
We have a musician in Denmark who is dead now he was around the 90’s so that’s was a very good Farrell.. but he said at one point that people who got talent was mostly alright people and such but people without could be giant jerks.. so it’s sounds like it’s fits Mr Cocker right.. he was a very talented and nice person..
I once looked out my back window and witnessed a whirlwind of butterflies taking place in my back yard. I had never seen anything like it before or since, nor have I ever heard anyone else describe such a thing. It was literally a vortex, a little mini-tornado of living things spinning around just for me. There was no one else around, and the thought of taking my eyes off of it, even long enough to grab my phone or a camera never crossed my mind. I just froze in the moment, trying to allow my brain time to take it all in. That was kind of what being at a Joe Cocker concert was like. He was a force of nature.
Hey, Jamel - You hit the nail on the head when you said “No cell phones. Memories are all up here.”🧠🧠🧠 This is the ultimate concert experience. See the performer, connect through your heart ❤️💜❤️ and soul, feel it in your bones 🦴 🦴🦴, feel it for the rest of your life. No cell phone filters or phony “lighter” pictures. Nothing like waiving a match or lighter until your fingers burn. No “official” videos then, but bootlegs always easily available. PLEEAASSEE check out Van Morrison soon. I see lots of people requesting Van. You will love him. Best song: “Caravan.” Now I’m going to fold laundry hearing Joe Cocker and Van Morrison in my head. Peace/Out - 😈🌹😈
So insightful of you to get that, and the fact that he sings with such passion with his whole body-it builds up in that barrel chest and fights it's way out of his mouth-he's amazing!
@@jamelakajamal Thank you so much. I love the passion you show for Joe. He really was and for those who've actually listened to him. A one of a kind sound.
Whenever Joe sang a ballad I always worried about what he might've been through in his personal life..because in between lines, when his face was still, you could see pain there. Not those grimaces when he sang but the stillness in between.💙
I live in Western Colorado, about 2 hours from Joe's Ranch in Crawford. Every year he and Pam would put on a huge yard sale at their gorgeous house, all to benefit kids in the local area. One year I scored a pair of black Cole Haan Nike Air dress shoes that Joe wore in a couple of concerts in Australia and New Zealand. They are my pride and joy, and I wear them often. We also used to see Joe here and there in Paonia, the closest town to the Ranch. He was just a normal, local dude.....We lost a lot when Joe passed. RIP my man......
Jamel, Been a musician a long time and have seen many,many concerts. I was living in Vegas and went to see Joe Cocker. They started playing the tune "Unchain My Heart" and I witnessed a crowd reaction I've never seen before. It was thrilling to see the sudden excitement and effect it had on the audience ! What a tune. Joe was meant to sing this one. Yuma,AZ.
Joe Cocker was a very sensitive guy who dealt with bouts of depression. His pathos comes from being in touch with some deep stuff. Shout out to Billy Preston for writing this beautiful song ❤️
Like I said before; you've got an old soul. You appreciate the finer aspects. "No cell phones, all in the memory". In other words, living the experience in real time.
I am 46 years young and I grew up listening to a lot of music. The 80's where known for one hit wonders. It has been so fun seeing your reaction to some great artist. Good music should take you on a journey and make you feel. So much talent over the decades long before our sound guys and tech guys came into play. Most of those bands just got together had a great time playing when they were hot they were hot. Thank you for sharing with another generation what music was like before MTV. Most of these songs I can remember hearing for my first time. Thanks man for keeping music alive. I need to start listening to more music. They just dont make songs like they used to.
I played the acoustic guitar version of this song for my daughter when she was 1 day old. It was one of the most beautiful things I'll always remember.
I bought this album for this song back in the day. Love your comment "shout out to the old days", ha, "before cell phones and everyone was listening." We were! 🎵
Joe Cocker one of the best of all time Jamal you’re a cool dude you are doing the world a good deed by sharing all this beautiful music that everyone should be enjoying
I was so lucky to see him perform 19 or 20 yrs ago. 40 yrs. before we worried how long he'd be with us. A tidier & healthier looking Joe could still sing you to beyond! Thank you, Joe, for all the magic!
I have had the honour of seeing JC live many times over the years in Sydney Australia where I live. Only live can you appreciate the power of his voice and emotion. He gave his all at every concert. R.I.P. to a legend. Why,why,why, has he not been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame???
Every word is ripped from his soul he seemed too feel it all never saw him live a deep regret he deserves to get much much more respect for his talent, loveit
I really appreciated your comment about no cell phones/trying to capture the moment. I have seen the before and the after of cell phones thru this and you are right: it is like you get to experience the music instead of any distraction of-“Did I catch him doing that?” = no stress just enjoyment. Insightful Jamel. 👏🏻
Don't know if you've done this song already, but he does a great cover of the Traffic song "Feeling Alright" Like everything he does it's full of passion and see him wear the song.
It's not just that the music is superior but the live performances by these artists back that up. Joe Cocker put everything into the song. Something you just don't get today.
Yeah, that was before all the cops realized that they could just up and beat someone to death for the sheer joy of beating someone to death and have absolutely nothing happen to them.
BIG shout out to the old days ... kept it real and present then... everything changes but it's wonderful to be able to look back and feel it all again..
Autotune is a blight! It kills any humanity or soul in a track. Same goes for quantising everything to death and cut-and-paste production. Give me the truth of a performance, with all the rough edges, every time.
@@DDubyah17 You must be younger than me. It has nothing to do with how bands perform It is how they sound to the listener. LPs had a much more raw and natural sound than CDs, just like singing did before Autotune. Anyone over 50 will agree with that ...
M K ah, sorry mate. My bad. I misunderstood you. Thought you were dismissing my thoughts about autotune as a complaint from a Luddite. I actually agree with you. (I’m 47, so not much in it :))
If this doesn't bring a tear to your eye, you aren't human!
I'll say it again. Cocker's voice "scrapes your soul to the bone."
Well said my friend!
And one that raw bone is exposed, it starts to crunch that bone down
The quiet is called RESPECT for an artist
The fact he's not in the rocknroll Hof is a crime
me an mm eye om spot on. It’s a hand job.
me an mm eye om I see what you did there... lol
What a joke, but shit bands like the Sex Pistols and Kiss are in. Cocker is the white Ray Charles, hes amazing.
And they just wrote standard letters to people who started a campaign to get him inducted not too long before he died. As if he was a random nobody being suggested by a handful of ignorant claqueurs. The man had a career that's longer and had more ups and downs than half a dozen other artists taken together.
I agree 100%.
Joe “Freaking” Cocker!!!! Pure vocal and emotional sincerity!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Way ta say it brah!👍💪
Indeed!
Unfortunately dead
He's not perfect...but he gives you everything he has ... awesome
Brotha Joe was a True English Soul Singer 👍🏽
I just love that a young man like Jamel gets it.
exactly, me too, because nowadays nobody knows all these greats
His instrument is his voice and it takes his whole body to play it.
Couldn’t agree more, Freddie used his body & soul the same
Perfectly said!
I don't think there are too many singers that give as much effort as this guy. Every muscle and ounce of energy in his body
He was Beautiful!
"This man did not skip no days" Awesome comment!
He believed and felt every word he was singing.
You could see the emotion wrung out in his body and on his face because he Did feel every word.
Joe 's singing was straight from the soul, and involved every part of his body.
You REEEALLLLLY NEED to hear him do "I Put A Spell On You"!!! OMG!!!!
Brings tears to my eyes, especially when thinking about those I sing this to in my heart - my babies- all grown up now.
Me too! I sent him, Patty LaBelle n Billy Preston at the Apollo to my daughter on her birthday.
Joe had a sad life in his younger rears. Was a hardcore alcoholic. The later got sober, married and lived a beautiful life. I was so happy for him! I love joe!
Wow. What an artist and voice
Met this "Beautiful" man in '86 with only two other people in the room and got to go to his "You Can Leave Your Hat On" video shoot. Such a great experience for me. I will never forget every part of that afternoon. He was so polite and charming. R.I.P. Joe!

I seen and heard this many times but this time was emotional. Wow! 66 year old cowboy tears.
XOXO cowboy 💙💙
No shame in that, I have amazing memories growing up listening to this song.
It still gets to me at 47.
Hey I’m 61 and crying my eyes out. God I miss him. ♥️
They played this song at my wedding as I walked down the isle. Been married 43 years!
I would have cried all the way.
That’s so awesome! Congratulations!!! I’ve been married for 42. :))
I sang this to my first born
baby boy 1976 blessed
Excellent choice.If I ever did it again,mine would be Etta James,At Last
I have always thought he was so sexy in a slightly creepy way.
There will never be another like Joe Cocker. ✌🌍🎵
I have a special needs son with CP that I play and sing this song for and he just loves it.
Thats beautiful ❤️
“The Letter” another cover of a hit song that he made his. The live version with Leon Russell.
Also "She Came in Through The Bathroom Window"
Oh God yes. Leon Russell.. amazing!
Great song!
Leon Russell also gave Joe Cocker Delta Lady. Sadly they had a falling out and split.
OMG.. Leon Russel another one of my favorites! Back to the island!!
Hey, Jamel -
You hit the nail on the head when you said
“No cell phones. Memories are all up here.”🧠🧠🧠
This is the ultimate concert experience.
See the performer, connect through your heart ❤️💜❤️ and soul, feel it in your bones
🦴 🦴🦴, feel it for the rest of your life.
No cell phone filters or phony “lighter” pictures.
Nothing like waiving a match or lighter until your fingers burn.
No “official” videos then, but bootlegs always easily available.
PLEEAASSEE check out Van Morrison soon.
I see lots of people requesting Van. You will love him.
Best song: “Caravan.”
Now I’m going to fold laundry hearing Joe Cocker and Van Morrison in my head.
Peace/Out -
😈🌹😈
Into The Mystic or Wild Night 👍🏻
So insightful of you to get that, and the fact that he sings with such passion with his whole body-it builds up in that barrel chest and fights it's way out of his mouth-he's amazing!
His whole heart is there!!
Listen to "You can leave your hat on - Joe Cocker" he's such a great artist. I can't believe he's gone now.
He has that reaction of dude and it is awesome
👍🏾 ua-cam.com/video/i2DC5Nd1h1w/v-deo.html
@@jamelakajamal Thank you so much. I love the passion you show for Joe. He really was and for those who've actually listened to him. A one of a kind sound.
La primera banda que la interpretó fué Three Dog Night.
Yes yes yes, he sang with his whole body, you got that right. He was truly a gift to this earth. RIP brother Joe.🤘
Whenever Joe sang a ballad I always worried about what he might've been through in his personal life..because in between lines, when his face was still, you could see pain there. Not those grimaces when he sang but the stillness in between.💙
This is the best love song of all time. IMHO Every time I hear it, Joe's raw power and breathtaking sincerity bring tears of joy. Best love song ever.
That's one of those songs that will still be played in a 100 years!
Those definitely were the days.
This is 1980 on Halloween in Germany. He could still give it his all when I saw him in 94 at Woodstock. RIP Joe🙌🏽
Love Joe..& this song by him..so soulful & awesome. Thx 4 this one, Jamal..& 4 all ur great reviews 🙂🙂☮☮✌✌💕💕
Every performance from Joe Cocker was a unique event. He lived every song for the first time
I live in Western Colorado, about 2 hours from Joe's Ranch in Crawford. Every year he and Pam would put on a huge yard sale at their gorgeous house, all to benefit kids in the local area. One year I scored a pair of black Cole Haan Nike Air dress shoes that Joe wore in a couple of concerts in Australia and New Zealand. They are my pride and joy, and I wear them often.

Nobody has ever sung a song with that kind of emotion and feeling..
He sings this song with so much emotion and puts his all in it
Joe Cocker was a very sensitive guy
who dealt with bouts of depression.
His pathos comes from being in touch with some deep stuff. Shout out to Billy Preston for writing this beautiful song ❤️
I did not know Preston wrote this...I learned something this day...thank you.. take it from the top....
i thought the beach boys drummer wrote it
and Bruce Fisher ! this is such a beautiful song and Joe Cocker is the best to perform it !
Jamal, I don't know you, but I delight in watching you experience so much of the great music I grew up with! Cheers, Brother!
RIP Mr. Cocker. Thank you very much for your music.
One of the Very Best!!! He touches your soul!!!❤️
*I was born the summer this song came out. My mama said she would sing this to me. Thanks Jamel. Made me cry.*
Back in the day at a concert, if you loved the song, everyone would light their cigarette lighter. It was magical.
That was a moving performance. Thanks Jamel for bringing this one to us.
The best thing about a Joe Cocker concert is you watched a performer leave everything on the stage. ✌️
Like I said before; you've got an old soul. You appreciate the finer aspects. "No cell phones, all in the memory". In other words, living the experience in real time.

A voice like no other. He was an icon from the 60"s, made his big break at Woodstock, I love the man and the pure feeling he put into song. Amen Joe.
To me he has THE GREATEST soul voice of all time so pure so natural and 100% authentic .
Joe Cocker can tear your heart out; and that band is perfection.
Him singing Have a Little Faith in Me is one of my fave songs ever and has been for decades. I listen to him regularly. He was amazing.
Makes me happy and sad 😂 miss you my baby boy!
Joe cocker was one of a kind with a soulful gritty voice who was a great passionate performer miss him like him u rock
One my favorite singers..Love this song..Do Grandmas hands live Carnegie Hall..Bill Withers
Joe sings with his whole body, heart and soul. It's all on the line.
Joe Cocker one of the best of all time Jamal you’re a cool dude you are doing the world a good deed by sharing all this beautiful music that everyone should be enjoying
Beautiful ,,just Beautiful ,,,,,no words to describe 💖❤💕
He was able to transport his raw emotion to our ears like very few knew how. He was the TRUTH before we knew what that was.
I was so lucky to see him perform 19 or 20 yrs ago. 40 yrs. before we worried how long he'd be with us. A tidier & healthier looking Joe could still sing you to beyond! Thank you, Joe, for all the magic!
What a performer...goose bumps every time!

How do you not have tear form in your eye when listening to this? One of those songs...
From my town, Sheffield england. Wow! I love your channel. You warm my soul x
He brings me to tears. I always wanted to see him. Love, love, love him!
25 years just past... This was/is our wedding song. Still beautiful to me.
Love Joe Cocker, grew up to his amazing voice
I sang this song to my son when he was a baby. (He's 31 now.)
Thank you for your daily uplift. It is a true gift. You fill my heart, sir.
Joe Cocker could bring a tear to a glass eye.
he gives his soul when he sings! amazing!
He sang like a man possessed God love him.
I really appreciated your comment about no cell phones/trying to capture the moment.

It's not just that the music is superior but the live performances by these artists back that up. Joe Cocker put everything into the song. Something you just don't get today.
Man, that just does something to you when you watch him sing. He was so beautifully unique.
I saw joe cocker in Lowell mass in the 80's after about 3 hours even the cops just sat back and enjoyed the show
Yeah, that was before all the cops realized that they could just up and beat someone to death for the sheer joy of beating someone to death and have absolutely nothing happen to them.
He gives it all every time. Amazing..
He sings like singing is a martial art - his whole body is in tune with the delivery.
Amazing singer ♡ have loved him since the 60's with Mad Dogs And Englishmen days.
Got to see him a couple of times and it was always unforgettable.
BIG shout out to the old days ... kept it real and present then... everything changes but it's wonderful to be able to look back and feel it all again..
This song melts.my.heart.😔 Tears, butterflies, emotion, chills...the only words I can say.
So simple a song... just goes right to your heart and so beautiful.
One of my favorites is "When the Night Comes" it is such a great song! His voice is just so soulful! What a talent! ❤️
Nothing to hide behind with this simplicity, tempo...Joe's voice and his emotion always evokes emotion in the listener. Great performer!
This man puts all of his sole in his music. You feel him singing
Joe was great I'm glad I got to see him twice live before he passed away
Before the blasphemy that is autotune
Autotune is a blight! It kills any humanity or soul in a track. Same goes for quantising everything to death and cut-and-paste production. Give me the truth of a performance, with all the rough edges, every time.
@@DDubyah17 I said the same thing when CDs replaced LPs ...
M K hmmm, definitely not the same thing. CDs didn't significantly change how bands perform

Everyone should have this kind of passion in their life. In anything.
Saw Joe Cocker open for Steve Miller. What a performer! My buddy and I still talk about seeing Joe especially now that he's gone!
Perfectly imperfect. Gorgeous.
You cannot listen to Joe Cocker do this song without shedding a tear.
we have many entertainers and very few artist and singers....so glad. I had this growing up
I’m almost 60 years old and have been very blessed to have seen and have played awesome music over the years
cocker lived and breathed every song he ever performed right from the soul
He put his heart & soul into every song he sung. Very animated.
