One of the best ever live performances, a great song performed brilliantly by a superb performer. Joe had a unique voice. Absolutely loved listening to him.

Joe was the best cover artist of his generation. One of a kind.

Joe Cocker was late for a gig one night so he chewed his way through a granite mountain to make it to the gig on time. The gravel remained in his voice. Love the reaction!

A man giving everything he got to give! Just, beautiful! That's what we need today! Nothing like that anymore!😭You felt it, baby!👍✌️Peace from France

Joe Crocker, amazing artist.....Rock it out Joe lov ya!........69 was a year ......lovin it from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦

Now that is how you feel the music.

Emotionally euphoric

So good to see and hear the great Joe Cocker again. Thanks.

John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote this song. The Beatles recorded it a year earlier, but never released it as a single. The Beatles were so impressed with Cocker's version of this that they sent him a telegram of congratulations and placed an ad in the music papers praising it. This was recorded in 3/4 time - a waltz. The Beatles original version was in traditional 4/4 time.

one of the best performances of Joe's epic Beatles cover, I bought the vinyl 45 when it came out, still love it & spin it often. Joe Cocker makes some songs he covers, his in someway. I saw him a few times at festivals, here in Britain. Their performance was always superb.

Yesterday I saw a presentation from someone who was a young policeman there at Woodstock 69 (just being a policeman, he was only there to take care of the traffic) and he loved the mentality of all the young people there being helpful and peaceful. He didn't even mind the cannabis. He just wanted to help out wherever he could. He said: "With A little Help From My Friends" really describes the atmosphere there.

Great reaction beautiful lady such a great song

There’ll never be another Joe Cocker, he’s once in a lifetime amazing.

This was A Performance For The Ages by Joe and his backing group, The Grease Band. Great reaction.

This was the man who put the 'Soul in Rock and Roll" God bless him, a great man in all respects!

written by the Beatles , Ringo , Joe took to another Level , Joe gave it SOUL

I grew up with Joe Cocker's music. He was an English singer known for his gritty, bluesy voice & dynamic stage performances that featured expressive body movements. He recorded a few Beatles' songs "With A Little Help From My Friends", "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window" & "Something". Other hits were "Up Where We Belong" (a duet with Jennifer Warnes), "Delta Lady", "Darling Be Home Soon", "Cry Me A River", "Feelin' Alright", "The Letter", "You Are So Beautiful" etc.

Great cover of the Beatles song!! Joe Cocker did masterful covers!! 😊

Hi Sarah! Joe Cocker one of my favorite singer. This cover was released in April 1969. It was certified gold in the United States and peaked at number 35 on the Billboard 200 Suggestion some other successful musicians from Woodstock 1969. Joni Mitchell, The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Santana, The Band, Sly & the Family Stone, Credeence Clearwater Revival and John Sebastian. Thanks for a great reaction video!

Joe Cocker's moment of glory, luckily I was able to see him live several times.

Great song, great reaction.

Bravo, Sarah, you've now heard the "Master of Space and Time" making history! 😁 The Woodstock 1969 festival was epic, happy to say I was there all 3 days. It was a different reality from the world outside! The music was inspired, and the crowd was astonishingly nice! On this track, the female backup singers were delayed in traffic, so the boys sang falsetto instead. You might know this is a classic Beatles song, but even Paul McCartney admitted he liked Joe Cocker's version! 😁😇🌹💖

Your reaction to this incredible performance was lovely. Cheers from Boston.

I was there. It was magical. Never has been, there isn't and never will be anyone like him. The Wonder Years used this track for their theme song.

one of the perfomances that will live in our hearts for ever,Joe Cocker gave us this to share with our kids and grand kids when they will be ready to learn from us,our time,what we live back in those days and embrace it,with love and respect.

I had the good fortune to see him live twice, Great shows.

12.29.22. You’ve🫵🏼 got impeccable music🎸taste, sis❗️🇬🇧 this is from his 1969 Woodstock performance.

Joe Cocker and "The Wonder Years" brings back such good memories of my childhood growing up! Thank you so much for reacting to this Sarah! 💗💗

I was at the famous 60's hangout Barney's Beanery some 30 years ago, turned around and just 10 feet away standing alone, there he was. Joe Cocker must have known from the expression on my face that I recognized him and smiled and waved. Warm and friendly, he was a gentleman. You must see the SNL episode he guested on where John Belushi is on stage with him doing his amazing impersonation. Dueling Joe Cockers.😅

Joe took this song to a whole other level. One of a kind!

This was Day three at Woodstock doing this Beatles cover. The best version is "Joe Cocker - With a Little Help from My Friends - live at the Metripol". It absolutely explodes!

He really did get a little help from his friends. His backup singers got stuck in traffic and so the rest of the band jumped in to cover.

And that's live folks❤❤❤❤

so nice to see you love good music he is awsome 😊

Somewhere between 400, and 550 Thousand Souls Got Filled With Totality of Soul That Summer Day of Love. Always gets me a bit teary eyed as, and dont get me wrong as I love the Beatles, but as far as I am concerned, this song was absolutely written for Joe, and he Did so much more with it. Kudos to his band mates who filled in for the Back Up Vocalists who could not get to the show on time. You should hear this live with his Back Up Singers, but it was still History for them to make the Cut.

We may never see another performance like Joe Cocker ; Woodstock 1969"

The music went through his body like electricity. I call it "soul epilepsy".

The ladies who were supposed to provide the backing vocals got stuck in the massive crowds at Woodstock that day and couldn't make it to the stage in time, so the guys had to stand in for them. I think they did a pretty decent job of it. There were around 500,000 people there and JO Cocker was one of the biggest attractions of the whole show. This is live rock music at its very best, long before 'Auto-Tune' was invented. Oh for the great days of live music and when flower power and the days of love and peace were at its height. God rest Joe Cocker RIP man.

The musicians singing back-up wouldn't have expected to be pressed into action for their vocals, so it was brave of them to step up after the female group scheduled to appear got held up in the traffic gridlock. Joe seemed unfazed and there was quite possibly nobody in the crowd sober enough to care.

Love your reaction, it warmed my soul ❤

Lolllll, yes, this was used as the theme from the Wonder Years! 😁 For comparison, you'd likely enjoy the performance from the "Mad Dogs and Englishman" tour, where the female singers were present and the mighty Leon Russell performed with Joe!. ✌️🕊️

JOE COCKER, "A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS", yes this is the opening song from the TV SHOW, The Wonder YEARS. The Beatles song sung by Ringo Starr. JOE COCKER made into his own. From the Greatest Concert Ever, "WOODSTOCK, 1969"... PEACE, LOVE, and MUSIC...

Wasn't it cool when we could see the exact second she recognized the theme music to The Wonder Years? I saw it in her face and knew immediately. However, I was a young adult in the 60s, so I felt some sort of second-hand pride (don't know why lol) the first time I heard this was the theme music used in the 80s & 90s, Wonder Years. It was a good show. I had a Mom like the mom on that show, even blonde. lol I enjoyed this reaction. I'll check out more.

No other like Joe Cocker!

👍One of the highlights of the era. The song is originally by the Beatles, two years earlier from the Sgt. Pepper's album.

Great Reaction Sarah ! Keep it Up

The world misses joe 😢

Great redaction. I could see you were really getting it! Joe's female background singers got stuck in traffic and never made it on time for the gig in Woodstock otherwise this would have been even better.

This was a live performance at the mythical Woodstock music festival. My father was at this concert, and said it changed his life.

Joe took everyone there to church that day. The rest of us are just lucky enough that it was captured on recording.

Perfect, Perfect, PERFECT 👊👊👍 Thanks, Thanks, THANKS ❤👊👍😁

This is timeless. 1969 Woodstock, Joe Cocker. This performance and Joplin and Hendrix should be in The Smithsonian

Great reaction to a master at work, brilliant

This is the day Air Guitar was invented Thank You Joe you Legend !!!

Perfection! The God of performing.

The best Soul singer of all time.

You made my day, thank you so much!

Yes Same Song from The Wonder YEARS ✌️😉🙏

Woodstock! Joe Cocker! and a whole lot of history! There is a lot to know and great songs. Such as - Chicago was a new group and was booked to be there but their agent sent Santana for his debut in their place. While waiting for a band to get ready, Country Joe was asked to come up and do something. Someone handed him a guitar someone else got him a rope to use as a strap and it became an iconic moment in history when he did the - i-feel-like-i'm-fixin'-to-die rag - Here is a link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mNtplpRh3dO6c30.html And its 1, 2,3 what are we fighting for? Don't ask me I don't give a damn, The next stop is Vietnam, And its 5, 6,7 open up the pearly gates, Well there ain't no time to wonder why, WHOOPEE we're all gonna die

Joe Cocker. Incredible !!!

Love your reactions you so real and your smile!

Awesome written and preformed song with a great reaction my dear. Same song from Wonder years but this is the original.

The grease band too, BABAYYYYYYYYY!

Yes, the studio recording was the theme song for The Wonder Years, and it is also a song originally by the Beatles, on their Sgt. Pepper album.

That was such a Guy i have think he reach the 100+ years but R.I.P!

Joe Cocker lodged at a pub just a mile and a half from where I am right now (but back fifty years ago)

Sarah I Love the reaction!!

A pleasure watching you, I will check out other stuff now.

It is in spirit.

Yeah, this was a Beatles tune, Cocker sang in the title shots of the ABC sitcom, "The Wonder Years."

I love him when sings live You can Leave Your Hat On. It's later in his career

Joe was an artist

No one else like him

This is the right version!

Volcanic performance.

Joe Cocker invented Air Guitar.

On the studio version Jimmy Page played guitar

This is what music is about

Awesome rendition of a Beatles song

This song is a cover of a Beatles song. The other Joe Cocker Beatles cover you should listen to is, "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window".

Friggin Joe let it all out that day.

No-one could have put in that performance but Cocker (high or otherwise).

He have a incredible voice..you should check out " you can leave your hat on " 🙂🙏 thank you for another amazing review

Can we also acknowlegde the two guys in the background mastering those high parts with ease? Reminds me always on The life of bryan, stoning scene.

Careful Sarah, we're getting into the that drug haze that hung around Woodstock. And yes, they did play a version of this on The Wonder Years.

Music is the only one true universal language

challenge: Can you name just ONE performer, from today's "Top 20", who has the sheer bloody Talent, Charisma and personality of ANY of these performers from the 1960s.....no, me neither....

Forget The Wonder Years..... It's musch older ..... It's a Beatles Composition.

The holy Spirit is in this man on this day Amen

Yes it's the song from the Wonder Years.

Keep in mind playing for for 500,000 people is not your normal. Great year Woodstock. Abbey Road. Zeppelin 1. Morrison Hendrix Janice. I wish it was like that today..

Beautiful, Sarah. I wonder if you know that this is a cover of The Beatles second track on their Sergeant Pepper album. Ringo sings the lead. It would be worth checking out if you haven't heard it already.

He usually has women back up, I forgot why they weren't there, so one of the band member did the back up in high notes.

wood stock awesome

I wonder what the Beatles thought about this reinterpretation of their song?

No, this song originated with THE BEATLES not some TV show as so many younger people seem to think.! If you really want a musical education, listen to the Sgt Pepper's album by them, all the way through without stopping - very important to do that. This song comes from that. Rated by many as the greatest album ever made. I cannot disagree.
