George joins Chris and guests Martin Freeman, Mel Giedroyc and Bryan Cranston in the studio to get the weekend off to a sunny start with a cover of Mungo Jerry’s hit song. Subscribe: bit.ly/2fKbxWg
I’m 44 , love a drink.......swimming & fishing in the sea .........singing along Dee Dee Dee .... had the mungo Jerry version on my dads 45... this boy smashes it !! What a voice
What a guy! I've always loved this song but those lyrics (if her daddy's poor, etc) have always stuck in my craw. I love George Ezra, think he's got a fantastic voice, but now he's on a new level. Well done, George, for being sensitive to all the daughters of poor men, who have felt really disrespected! (Like me!)
I'm a grandma 59 years young and my granddaughter 11 introduced me to this totally amazing guy, cant stop listening to him he makes me smile, thank you are truly awesome
72 and ditto Kerry Obrien i love it, he was out here for the Arias recently, and by the way, i was going to see my granddaughter, she is 3 and a bit, and she sang Shotgun all the way to her place, apparently her whole Kindy class sing it and i cant wait to see that,
The original lyrics are “if her daddy’s rich take her out for a meal if her daddy’s poor just do what you feel” he changed it to “if her daddy’s rich take for her a meal and if her daddy’s poor take her out for a meal” what a guy ❤️❤️❤️
So many great tunes can use a re-write. Do we honour old lyrics if they are uncouth? I am forgiving of re-writes. If the original artists (fans) don't like it, then lets hear them explain why the daughters of poor daddy's don't deserve a meal too. No? Ok, then. Plenty of great old lyrics to celebrate. Plenty of great tunes with outdated lyrics need an update. Original WON'T be forgotten.
Raymond Whipple I don’t think he’s a hurt liberal. I think he’s showing respect to women. I understand your sentiment as many things are changed in the name of political correctness. This bothers me also. I just don’t think this is the case in this scenario.
I couldn’t stop smiling the whole video, he is jus lovely 😊 he could sing the simplest song in the world and it would still be awesome! 😍 This whole cover all I wanted to do is stand up and dance, and I did! 😍 I am so in love with him 😍💕
THANK YOU TO THE UNIVERSE FOR CREATING SUCH A SPECIAL HUMAN BEING!! 🌈🌞 The fact that he covered such an amazing song in such a beautiful way just makes me adore him even more & shows how awesome of a person he is! Way to go to the rest of the band too...they were rockin it! 👍👍💚🌈
A friend of mine introduced me to George Ezra’s music when I was in AZ. Incredible. I could listen all day everyday. Thank you, for your truly awesome vocals. I live on Vancouver Island BC, Canada. 💕💕🎶🎶
You mean POLITICALLY CORRECT "change of lyrics"!!! PC IS EVIL, and silences people's FREEDOM OF SPEECH, like what's happening NOW, thanks to widespread EVIL, IMMORAL, AMORAL, MURDERING COMMUNISM!!!
@@janishart5128 Ah so changing the lyrics so it doesn't disrespect women and endorse drunk driving is a bad thing? Also, what the fuck is your definition of communism lmfao. Also maybe chill on the caps, or just chill in general
praise god for this rewrite. i threw mungo away long ago, tho, his version brought me a harsh awareness. now, i can listen to this great tune with CIVILIZED LYRICS.
I thought it was going to stink but this guy has got something. A unique voice plus he’s appealing! So he took a big chance covering this big hit by Mungo Jerry and he aced it!
