Disney can keep their movie franchise, we will support Johnny through his music!
yes, I bet Disney is now pissed that they turned their back on him.
I'm here for Jeff Beck NOT johnny
@@iamanovercomer3253 well we are so glad to know that there is a negative Nancy that's "here for JB" but not JD. Guess what ??? JB is here for Johnny, lmaoooo.
@@autk ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 love your comment!
I've said this since the trial has ended. I don't want to see him in movies anymore. I want to see him on a stage with a guitar in his hand... His first love. The only love he's had that hadn't failed him in one way or another.
This song is divine! Johnnys’ voice and Jeff’s guitar skills are absolutely immaculate!
Agreeeeee❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
yeeeees
Agreeeeeeeeeeeeeee ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️love
So Agreed 👌🤩👊❤️
100% agree
RIP. Jeff Beck. Your music will always grace us. Your gift of music is well received.
Electric guitar and johnnys voice make this all so sensual
Giò sei bravo con la chitarra ma per niente a comunicare con le persone oneste 🎉
Wow Johnny's voice in this song gives me chills I love it !!!!!
YESSSSS!!!!! Hes so talented
dark subject for one who is no stranger to dark sadnesses, for me this is beyond the 3d into spaces not usually imagined where invisibles need to bleed to death to let go. Not the words so much as this music is changing invisible realities very powerfully, as I feel it. Dang, I gotta listen a few more times to clear out permanently what has been chasing my family for generations. Disclaimer: No humans were wounded in the making of these comments.
Do you think he is singing both parts?
thank you
@@albusandrose -It definitely sounds like Johnny might have been singing both parts. Obviously I knew that he could sing, but if he did sing both parts then i'm really impressed, cause i had no idea that he could sing in such a low key. His voice sounds incredible on this song.
awesome, both are legends.
Agree ❤️🔥
Agree 🎶
JD is hardly a legend.

'When Johnny and I started playing together, it really ignited our youthful spirit and creativity,” Beck said when the LP was announced. “We would joke about how we felt 18 again so that just became the album title, too.” He added: “I haven’t had another creative partner like [Depp] for ages. He was a major force on this record. I just hope people will take him seriously as a musician because it's a hard thing for some people to accept that Johnny Depp can sing rock ’n’ roll'
good choice
Hands down, he CAN sing rock n roll, Jeff. He IS rock n roll. It wasn't hard for me to accept at all because he always had the style and dress of a rock n roll star! What I love about Johnny is that he can pull it off in BOTH worlds -- he knows how to look like a Rockstar AND he knows how to look like a movie star. He has a style all his own, and he looks gorgeous doing it! When I heard his voice, I instantly became a fan of his music. Instantly. That is rare, because everyone doesn't have "it" -- but Johnny does. This album seems like fire, I can't wait to get it; but for now, it will be on my Playlist! And WHAT is there to say about the way JB plays? Like I said, "Fire!" We should have known, if Jeff recommended him, that should've been all it took! I'm with u now Jeff, I supported Johnny throughout the trial, now I'm a fan of his music for life.
Habría que estar sordos para no valorar la gran voz que tiene Johnny Depp y cómo toca la guitarra, es un gran músico 💚Gracias el juicio de JD conozco ahora a Jeff y creo que a mucha gente le ha pasado lo mismo.🤔 Seguir escuchando su música o no, dependerá de la calidad de sus futuros temas, no tiene nada que ver con las películas que pueda hacer o no Johnny.
I'm just so excited to get to enjoy Johnny's immense talent in even more ways. I'm going to buy every album he does 🤗🥰😘
He sounds like David Bowie. Really unique vocals. Our talented Johnny.❤❤❤
Such a sexy song, especially due to Johnny’s voice! He and Jeff Beck have great chemistry and make amazing music together.
Absolutely agree! They are Magical together! 🎸❤🎶💯
No one can make a guitar sound so angry! Jeff Beck blows my mind every time.
Oh my god that guitar and Johnny's voice makes my eyes roll in pleasure
Right?
🤣😂🤣
This is exactly how I’m feeling 😫😫
... C'mon Girlies😏
Jeff Beck, what a guitarist, phenomenal.
Johnny Depp's deep vocal range suits this song perfectly
It’s Jeff Beck singing most of the time. Johnny is in the background mid to end of the song.
@@BloodBathandCake Jeff Beck is a rock guitarist..Johnny was singing and playing guitar.
@@BloodBathandCake where does Beck sing here? Lol...
Nope, it's Johnny's vocals only. On the release text of the Song it says:
Drums, Bass, Vocals: Johnny Depp
Rythmic guitar: Johnny Depp
Harmonic guitar: Johnny Depp
Electric guitar: Jeff Beck
@@BloodBathandCake It's Johnny Depp's vocal throughout. Jeff Beck's voice is a different register altogether.
Love the song by Johnny Depp with guitar played by Jeff Beck ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️BAND IS GREAT!!! TOO!!!
The song is by velvet underground.
DB covered it and it's better than the original in my estimation
I love it. I support JD in everything he does. He is blessed with so many talents.
Agreed. But this talent was almost destroyed by the falsity which appeared instead of the truth. Happily the truth did win! Regards
I love his paintings,
sculptures, and his taste for
interieur design, besides
his music and acting ❣ ♡
Simp
@@ritahorvath8207 and more... i think he ca also be a writer (based on text messages from the trial) and he can create some audio books.. we are so exciting about what he will choose to create next years.
@@paulacostescu1041 Yeah, his texts do paint a picture, lol.
They are covering the Velvet Underground’s “Venus in Furs” Nice!!!
Awesome song like it 👍 Exceptional performance from the best, great, unforgettable 🎸 Jeff Beck 🌟 and His Dear Friend Johnny Deep ⭐ They're FANTASTIC 🙆♀️💕 Many thanks for sharing ✌️👍👌👋
Absolutely crazy 🥵 johnny has got such a hypnotic voice and don't forget Beck's guitar skills. No one can make guitar's string so angry 💕
It is something magical in this song... it is beyond the words... i felt the hypnotic effect... i cannot stop listening.
Took the words right out of my mouth 🤘😜🤘 perfect song for a beck Depp combo
Beck is a well-established Master since the 60s
I dont know any great musician guitarists who aren't in awe of him and admire and many influenced by him
Hes also known for his fusion styles blues jazz
Hes amazing
Johnny must be dazed and in heaven hes gigging with Beck and there going to be recording
BTW this song was written by Lou Reed John must of picked it as he's had ties from was back with the downtown NYC music scene ..I've some mutual friends .
Of both really
Beck would never pick this song to do..but he's become gracious in his older years except to 1 guy who won't sell him this hard to find vintage guitar model
Just say the guys name and over 2 decades later Beck scowls haha
I can't say who
Really happy for John to be hooked up with Beck
Awesome!
@@samthunders3611 something funny on the first episode of 21 jump Street beck is mentioned in comparison to Hendrix and JDs character has never heard of either (shows his acting skills to be a musician in reality and making out he hasn't heard of them and look believable lol)
@@SarseeDGLover yea he's an actor 👏!
I never imagined that Johnny some day would be playing with one of the best guitar players God has created. Amazing track! Johnny you are blessing my pal!
Beck & Depp this makes it all well worth it, JD is ready willing and more than able to be along side Jeff Beck, they have been working on this and their time has come. BLESSED! Stay safe, centered and pour out your talent. Graced men and team
What the fantastic cover 👌👌❤️
Haven't been excited for an upcoming record for quite a while. Sounds great, loved the mood of both the original and this song. Awesome!
written and sung by lou reed. want to listen to that version also if on utube.
'Upon the My O My'
☺️
I agree both versions are superb 😁
I have a strong feeling sales are going to break records - no pun intended.
Velvety sound under my heart ❤️
I purchased the album. This song is amazing. Johnny’s voice is so sexy and sultry! I normally wouldn’t like this kind of music, but Johnny’s voice and Beck’s guitar…..omg!
+1
Same
sounds good for sure,
Likewise!!
You sound stupid
Listen to the guitar and the sultry voice. They work great together.
Venus In Furs"
(originally by The Velvet Underground)
Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
Downy sins of streetlight fancies
Chase the costumes she shall wear
Ermine furs adorned, imperious
Severin, Severin awaits you there
I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears
Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
Shiny leather in the dark
Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
Severin, Severin, speak so slightly
Severin, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now bleed for me
I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears
Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Severin, your servant comes in bells, please don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
Originally by Lou Reed. Velvet Underground did a cover.
Gracias es como una explosión de sentimientos dentro de cuerpo🌞🦋
thanks for these lyrics. his voice almost below my receptor range.... splendid in every way, defies the superlatives of description... man, this is powerful like an exorcism of pain.
@@Fox1nDen lol...
I knew Velvet Underground, but only coz I'm a "History" fan in everything...
But thts not my fav song for sure...sadomaso? Lmao...is he a fan of it? Hope NOT LMAO....
cure his ❤ thts my fav line here, though...lol ...
This album will probably sell millions. I like Johnny's singing voice.
It ll sell formidable! Didn't buy a CD etc for yrs ...but this I DO..Will!
@@KatharinaK117 I can't afford vinyl.
@@alisoncampbell9860 hmm..you can save? I love it!
@@KatharinaK117 Yes I could. But I like CDs
I bought mine !
Like i said before Johnny is so strong, smart, savvy, savory, sultry , suave and still the sexiest man in the universe with the voice that soothes my ears, melts my skin like butter, shocks my bones to and through with a voice like the sweetest nectar from the gods with a god body to boot. Mr. Beck and that playing of his just hits the wow factor out of this world.
Johnny Depp never fails to surprise, impress and amaze me. I never realized how incredible his vocals are.🤔 More reason to love him.❤️🔥
When Johnny walked out of that court room he moved on and he's better then he ever was. Carry on Johnny your a winner!!!
WOW!!! ❤ YES!!!!!
Artists, musician and actor. Wow!!!Hes remarkable. ❤❤❤❤
And Amber said she didn't like to hearing Johnny music 🎸She's out of her mind..Johnny is great love his music 🎻🎷🎶🎸🎙🎤🥁🎼🎵🎶well we know she lies..
JOHNNYS VOICE IS SO DEEP, SMOOTH AND SILKY. 👌
Now there's the two most handsome men and talented men in the world! Love you both! And Johnny where's the rum haha!
Classy Global Domination 👏 💝💋 Jeff Beck Rock God Bringing Johnny Depp to a Throne on Mount Olympus...Incredible I Love the Hollywood Vampire Rock Gods as well. Bravo to an Amazing New Lease on Life JD!!! This Album is Your OpEd ❤️🔥

Hello 👋 Amy

His voice 🥲💜🔥
And guitar...
Everything is perfect 🔥
New fav song
We always loved u johnny..praying all the best for this man
God, what a voice 🤤. love😘
I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears
The guitars, the vocals, the production is like liquid gold! It's a fabulous cover!
Waaaaaaaaaay better than the original
@@Io-Io-Io No way, Velvet Underground did the original better
@@flick400 no😝
It’s not that it’s better. Nobody can BE Lou Reed, and this song is all Lou Reed-it’s raunchy, magical, gritty, sexual, avant garde
This cover is really great and it’s a beautiful tribute to Lou Reed. Beck and Johnny did good by Reed and Velvet Underground.
RIP Jeff Beck
@@Io-Io-Ioit suits the taste of the average rocker more, in fact the original wasn't made to be average 😉
Johnny, we all love and support you, hun.
They are both great,but Johnny is my man. His voice is orgasmic😍❤️
🥵🥵🥵
Greece supports Johnny Depp ❤️
All my love and support to Johnny Depp, Jeff Beck and team..!!!
💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Lou Reed Velvet Under ground Beck & Depp this is deep.. beautiful
We will support Johnny through his music and art!
Awesome! Best music ever! - and I am 68.
To the memory of Lou Reed. Long Live Velvet Underground!..Great job Mr. JB and Mr. JD. Love you both so much. Thank you.
Amen🙏
Johnny, your high range vocals on
the song, ooo baby baby, is absolutely brilliant! it took my breath away.
PLEASE, RIGHT NOW . . . STOP AND PAUSE THIS VIDEO. Please go watch the original "Venus In Furs" from the 1960's, if you've never heard it. Then come back and just listen to where these two take this song. PURE UNADULTERRATED GENIUS! Depp's vocals are perfect for this track -- the way he slowed it down and his theatrical delivery is exceptional! Jeff Beck's solos are OUT OF THIS WORLD! His arrangements are KRAZY! He uses chords that no one has ever heard or would even THINK of using in this song! I have always thought covering other people's songs is dangerous because the remakes are almost NEVER better OR EVEN CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL; but in this case . . . their entire album is . . . PURE GENIUS! THE SONGS THEY COVER ARE BETTER THAN THE ORIGINALS! BETTER! And I cannot wait for it to drop so I can get it. If you have ANY doubt about Johnny Depp, this album should clear that right up! HE IS A ROCKSTAR ALL DAY LONG!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Everything you said...brilliant
Jeff Beck / Johnny Depp "2022" 🔥
Amazing ULTRA MAX LEGEND AND ICON JOHNNY
Johnny Depp's deep vocal range is awesome and Jeff Beck's guitar skills are insanely great. A collaboration of the two is like a marriage made in Heaven!!!!

Mr. Beck has now joined the Abbott Brothers, Randy, Hendrix, Eddie and all the greats we've lost🙏
❤️❤️❤️I love it love you Johnny
been hunting all over for this version for a minute now......heard it in a video Johnny was playing in the background as he was getting his makeup done......love it!!
Johnny's gritty, deep voice and that guitar with Beck is surreal. Timing is so much better than Velvet Underground. Damn, everything is better.
@@rebeccashaw957 Hello 👋
How are you doing today
awe inspiring , Beck and Depp ...
He has a hypnotic voice. Works well with this song.
Johnny gets to be the rock star he first wanted, before becoming an actor. Rock on Johnny 🤘
If nothing else, give Beck his due for continually applying his superb playing across the decades into areas that are not predictable and attaching to higher visibilty characters like Depp.
Beck with awe-inspiring sound, Depp with deep cool.
This & That❣️ Thank you for the Great Memories 🙏🏻♥️🎸🤟🏻🇨🇦🕊️
I've just seen his story on Instagram and I came straight right here.... Johnny's wishes are our commands... Eye eye captain.
So happy for JD! Having the time of his life.
We love you Johnny
Jeff Beck is a total LEGEND! Nice to have a side kick like Johnny Depp playing along!
What is this musical sorcery.....utterly spell bound, in this sound 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Legends create legends. Fantastic. Johnny what a voice. And Jeff's guitar
Holy Moly!!!!!! They slayed this song with Johnny’s sexyyyyy voice and Jeff’s guitar riffs!
His voice fits this song perfectly
I would 100% love to see this tour with J & J together! I also would be a excellent DrummerChic for JD!!
This is heavy and they do an awesome job. Lou Reed was such a fucking genius.

Omg love John's voice
Johnny - Sell all the material things you cling to and be free to play your music for the rest of your life. Be a true Bohemian!
Haha lol..
Holy shit. I had no idea Johnny Depp could sing like this. I can't even describe it but it's definitely doing something to me that no music has done for a while. And Jeff Beck on the guitar 👌👌👌
Hello 👋 Rose

Wow. Blown away. The despair in Johnny's voice captures the song, and the longing of Jeff's guitar. What a combination. Bravo 🎉
l hear no despair here
@@brad8386 Johnny and Jeff are suing him. Bruce didn't write it. It's a toast from way back, and folklore. Bruce doesn't own the words, nor the rights to the lyrics, nor any mention of prior ownership on the album. Labeled a "Cash grab" and nothing more.
Sherrie Gill - Apparently, you were unable to read the entire article for whatever reason. Professor Bruce Jackson who exposed the Depp/Beck plagiarism did NOT ASK FOR ANY MONEY. The term 'cash grab' is the Depp/Beck characterization of and response to the exposure of the plagiarism they committed. Depp/Beck are attempting to victimize themselves in a publicity stunt to draw attention away from their blatant plagiarism. In addition, the professor said IF there were any type of proceeds sent to him, he was going to donate it to organizations that further his life-long commitment to preserving African American culture and traditions. The culture and traditions so often appropriated by musicians like Depp/Beck. At least some appropriations receive acknowledgements. Apparently, Depp/Beck don't want to give credit where credit is due and by their lack of any acknowledgment falsely give the impression that they are the original authors.
If you reply to this don't expect a response. I (as in Brad's spouse) have better things to do with my time than staring at screens or replying to people who don’t thoroughly read articles.
Here is the article -
"[T]his is like a burglar suing a homeowner because he cut his hand on the kitchen window he broke getting in," says Bruce Jackson.
As Rolling Stone first reported back in August, Depp and Beck’s song, “Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade” (off their album 18) appears to pull numerous lines from a poem called “Hobo Ben,” including one that ostensibly gives the song its title. For instance, part of the original “Hobo Ben” poem goes: “I’m raggedy I know, but I have no stink/and God bless the lady that’ll buy me a drink.’/Heavy-hipted Hattie turned to Nadine with a laugh/and said, ‘What that funky motherfucker really need, child, is a bath.”
The lines, “I’m raggedy, I know, but I have no stink,” “God bless the lady that’ll buy me a drink,” and “What that funky motherfucker really needs, child, is a bath” all appear on “Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade.”For his part, Jackson does not claim authorship of the poem. He learned it from an inmate at Missouri State Penitentiary, identified as Slim Wilson, who said he learned it from his father. The poem, like so much music and art in the oral tradition, does not have a definitive author.
After Rolling Stone published its report, a spokesperson for Depp and Beck said the duo were considering additional copyright credits “if appropriate.” But a couple months later, it seems the pair are less interested giving credit than suing Jackson for unspecified damages, attorneys' fees, and a declaration that they have not committed copyright infringement.
Depp and Beck’s argument appears to hinge on the gray area between the unknown origins and authorship of “Hobo Ben,” and the copyrights that Jackson does own for his transcriptions and recording of the toast. Depp and Beck claim this means Jackson “owns no copyrights in the words” to “Hobo Ben,” and that the “copying of the toast into his book and subsequent recordings did not create any copyrights in those words.”
In a statement shared with Rolling Stone, Jackson replied, “They didn’t write a word of ‘Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade’ and they are suing the person they stole it from and who caught them doing it. From my point of view, this is like a burglar suing a homeowner because he cut his hand on the kitchen window he broke getting in.”
Lawyers Rachel and Michael Jackson (who are Jackson’s children) also rebuffed the lawsuit as “a bald attempt to distract the public’s attention away from their repeated attempts to claim authorship for a song that they did not write.”
Their statement continues: “The hypocrisy runs deep with these two. On the one hand, they claim that Professor Jackson cannot have a copyright interest in the song ‘Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade’ because it is a ‘toast’ or poem with uncertain authorship that was freely passed and shared within the African-American community - which Depp and Beck fully know is false. On the other hand, they repeatedly claimed authorship of this same song - first on the digital release of 18, and, later, on the vinyl release of 18.
“How do they explain this? They don’t. Instead, they filed a lawsuit against the person who exposed their apparent misappropriation of this African American work in the song ‘Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade.’”
According to Depp and Beck’s suit, Jackson sent the pair letters back in August alleging that that “nearly every single word” in “Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade” is “copied from ‘Hobo Ben’ including the title.” There were also suggestions that the “inflection, tonality, and rhythm” in “Sad Mothefuckin’ Parade” mirrored the recording Jackson made of Slim Wilson performing the toast in the 1960s. Jackson’s letter reportedly even alleged that Depp and Beck didn’t just copy the lyrics to “Hobo Ben,” but may have sampled that recording “to construct portions of the vocal track” on “Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade.” Depp and Beck’s lawsuit goes on to assert that while “there may be some elements” of “Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade” that “mirror the words” of “Hobo Ben,” “Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade” is described as “an original work of authorship and creativity.” Reps for Depp and Beck did not return Rolling Stone’s request for clarification if this statement meant the pair claim they wrote the lyrics to “Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade,” and that any of the various similarities between the song and “Hobo Ben” are just a coincidence.
Meanwhile, in their statement, the Jacksons noted, “It is important to understand that Depp and Beck have not denied that the lyrics and nuance of the vocals performed on ‘Sad Motherfuckin’ Parade’ appear to have been duplicated by Depp and Beck, which they have appropriated and credited to themselves. When this story first broke, Deep and Beck issued a statement to Rolling Stone that “if appropriate, additional credits will be added to all forms of the album.” Why have they walked away from this promise?”
Furthermore, Depp and Beck’s lawsuit described Jackson’s allegations as “part of an old-fashioned shakedown.” But according to Jackson’s statement, he never made “any formal financial demands of Depp and Beck.” Instead, “He has repeatedly specified that any settlement monies would be donated directly to organizations that further his life-long commitment to preserving African American culture and traditions. Depp and Beck’s claim that this is a ‘cashgrab’ is a publicity stunt and worse, another lie.”
Jackson put it a bit more bluntly in his initial interview with Rolling Stone, saying, “I don’t know if this record is selling. I’ve seen some reviews that I’d be very embarrassed to have gotten had they been my album. But if it is selling, Johnny Depp is making a lot of money on it. Should it go to him, or should it go to some place that helps the people who produced this culture?”
@@brad8386 nah Rolling Stone and Howard Stern just mad they didn't get the interview. They threw JD under the bus early in this parade. Why would JD or Jeff give them the time of day? Plagiarism implies ownership. Calling JD a dirty Indian from the beginning? Nah not buying any of it. Still slandering him? In another article? Interesting. BTW yr posting on the wrong song.
On repeat ❤️
Awesomeness. Never...NEVER thought this song by the Velvet Underground would be outdone. Marvelous song... rendition. I'm going to buy this... certainly listen to it over and over....and over.... Brilliant stuff.
Jeff Beck...never standing still since 1965
This is great! Jeff Beck and Johnny Depp channeling the Velvet Underground, Lou Reed and Nico. Loved it then Love it now.
Johnny's voice rises and moves like smoke ♨ 💓
