Eric Burdon - Paint It Black Lyrics
Hmm, ah
I see a red door and I want to paint it black
No colors in my life, you better turn them black
I see them walking by dressed in their colorful clothes
I see them strolling by, my happiness [?]
I cannot foresee this thing happening to you
No!
I see people walking by dressed their summer clothes
I see them strolling by, my happiness [?]
Turn it black
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
I said I know baby
Everything is black I know
Since you been gone
Baby eh
Everything is black I know
Turn to me
And help me see again, baby
Help me walk once more
And help me talk again, walk again
Stand up like a man, baby
Since you been gone, gone
There is no color in my life, baby
Its turning so very very [?] black
Humph, I walk down the street
And I see a line of cars
Maybe blue, maybe brown, maybe green
But their turning black
Before my very eyes
And you could not know
What it's like when your whole world is black
When everything you see and touch
Turns so very very black, hmm
Oh baby now
I need you by my side
Bring some color into my life
Once again
I even tripped down and fell
Didn't see no colors anymore, baby
Bad, bad scene
And I have to tell you baby
No more will my grey sea go turn a deeper blue
I cannot foresee this thing ever happening to you
No!
I see people walking by me
They're all going in different directions
I see them strolling by and my heart splinters like a flame
Turning black, baby
Turning black I know
Everything
Since you've been gone is turning black, turning black, turning black, turning black, turning black
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, baby
Oh lord, oh babe, whoa lord, help me see again, baby
Help me walk, talk, walk stand up like a man I know
Need you standing by my side
Because I'm blind and I cannot see
Color blind
I'm color blind
Paint everything so black
Go ahead and paint it black, baby
Everything is black black, black, its turning black I know
Need some color in my life...

Eric Burdon Paint It Black Comments
Santana sound.
Excelente! Perfecto!
One more "Like", as been added.
MORE COWBELL!!!! I GOT A FEVA'
fu.ck i love Eric!!!!!
One of the best live bands
DAMN!!! So much talent together, and they were jamming! So very thankful I found this version. Tears of joy!!! I feel kinda bad for young people today. They have no idea what greatness is.
Честно говоря, галиматья.
Also wtf I got an ad right in the middle of the fucking groove!
Lol me too, it sucked
I love how he lets these musicians shine, just stands there and takes all the beautiful music in until he sings
Belleza años 60 70. Lo mejor.
Completely fucking up a perfectly good song..
Whoa...I feel very sorry for you. Sorry about your deprivations.
I love it ..I swear I never knew they played 2get her. To greatest bands together. Awesome..😍😍😍👍👍👍👍
I love you..😍💞😍
Yes Yes Yes! That's Called JAMMING! Paint it Black! Yes! What a Jam! Loved it on my PA! WHOA!
MORE COWBELL!!!
It’s amazing how much better video production and quality has gotten and how much worse music has. (I know, OK boomer)
I’m convinced Eric Burdon was in an altered state of mind when he was singing.
The editing of the video is terrible. The cut always are too fast.
Was hat ihn denn da geritten?
Мощная версия!👍🎵👏
Eric Burdon a hot man!
Unico sucesso. Desse eric foi naquela of de reason, o resti so tem merda
So nobody is gonna say anything about this fucking drummer?
Башлачев, блин очень похож.
Garbage
Fine cover
Better than The Rolling Stones version.
No way this a terrible version stones nobody can beat the stones .
@Jose H borba No, this is a great version for music fans.
Needs more cowbell...
fantastic
I never knew this cover existed. Awesome. The music of this era rocked
I watched the Animals concert in Dallas Texas 1965. They were great. They shared the same bill with Herman's Hermits. I named my son Eric after Eric Burden. Sadly he was killed in a car wreck 1995 when he was 16 years old.
When the music was music and the musicians musicians!
Isso é que é música.os caras nem aí pra estética só talento puro.
LA VERSIÓN DE LOS STONES ES GRANDE PERO LA FUSIÓN WAR & BURDON ES MAGIA PURA UN VIAJE CHINGON!!!
Эрик спасибо. Всегда обожал тебя слушать
I wonder why I think of Frank Zappa as I watch this video? Puzzled grin.
I rather not run into that drummer in a dark alley
Eric Burdon has an incredible voice
Si bien War me parecen unos músicos extraordinarios y con mucha onda, me gusta mucho mas la versión que hacía con The Animals.
This is terrible lol, sounds like something Paul Simon would’ve done once he started to get weird in the 80s was it?
Pshew, are you clueless...
Matt Polzkill Quite the contrary, this sucks
@Alex DeLarge Quite the contrary, you suck. And I'm sorry about your stunted and pathetic soul, truly.
That flute makes it..
Mejor que jagger
Certa vez um sábio disse que um palavrão consegue expressar melhor uma situação do que todas as filosofias já criadas pelo homem
Nesse caso peço licença para soltar um.
P.... que pariu, que clipe é esse?
Conseguiram melhorar uma coisa que já era irrepreensível!
what the fuck is his?
A singer
Classy stuff.
C'est pas bien de prendre des drogues
Это какой то пизнес, товарищи!
Отлично!
Completely fucking bonkers brilliant 💪
Esto es hacer música de verdad música es fantástico que tiempos aquellos exelente video felicidades y gracias x compartir diciembre del 2019
What a drummer what a song. A masterclass and a head of its time
Amazing ❤️
Remember when music was art? Fuck this is a masterpiece. You can tell it must be close to the end of times when in 30 years we've gone from this to that garbage they play on the wireless these days. Maybe we actually lost WW2? What kind of world did our parents fight and die for? Not this one. Take care.
Its been nearly 50 years since this.
Give me a half hit of whatever these cats are on!
Que rejunte de fenómenos!!
They r on fire
Una de las mejores voces del rock britanico
SANTANA
LOOK OUT
Jesus thats how you play drums and bongos!
It takes a great mind to appreciate this kind of music...Had records of Eric Burdan and the Animals i sampled a few things from them.. but wen i was locked down it was a station that played them alot...it made me like them more ...he sounds really good with War tho ...
+10 000 though compilations and mash ups are not my favourite...
Похож на Башлачева.
I never like the comparisons, ALL of them were great! so enjoy them & just enough....
Song needs more cowbell.
He'll kick your ass, and then some. Burdon had the innate ability to make girls go commando at sunday school.
Imagine War with Ginger Baker
You have something a little bit like that with Ginger Baker and Fela Kuti. Not as good as Fela's regular drummer.
excelente con el sello de calidad de Eric y Wars y su magia
The Long Haired Leaping Gnome.
This genre of music get great impact to the first hearing (i already knew, naturally), but it is not congenial to white musical culture for long.
It was as for Santana musical group as they performed for long years, till to now. All it is based on rhythm, as is usual for black music, where melody and harmonie are not rilevant in melodic leading way.
The title of this performance would be as for the contrary : Black paint it !
(i'm btw best songwriters in beat cultured white style)
Flute guy looks like Hendrix
Malditas drogas...
El ritmo suena a Santana.
Está bien vergas!!!
There’s more funk here than Parliament could put out in lifetime. I’m breathless.
That ad for a guitar app is no way to play a guitar on a smartphone
E so vir aqui encontrar maravilhas como esta .Maravilhoso
Watching political videos and clicked on this- cripes we need music like this absolutely incredible
Fucking fantastic, perfect. Fifty years ago,still and always fantastic musicians getting it done. War!
To quote Rick James...
“ Cocaine is a hell of a drug!”
Eric Burdon, one of the greats and what a band here, what a jam.
Wow. I never knew the Rolling Stones...Paint it Black...was a cover. Who knew. Rock on Eric.
Porra, deve ser muito bom ver e escutar isso chapado
♪♫♥ ;)
More cowbell Eric!!!!
The real thing, so good to see it!!!!!!!!
Terrible !!! I like Eric but Mike Jagger has the real voice for this song ! Also the instruments sound terrible !!! Sorry Eric but you can’t carry this song !!! 😔😔😔😔😔😢😢😢😢😢
I can't stand Jagger's voice and his music grates on my ears.
Can't say this isn't epic . . .
Lol that white dude can't sing is this a joke?
I think you the joke my brother
@Darren Tobias The band is amazing and he's talented You're not so you can't hold back your jealousy :D
Stupenda
ПОКА СЛУШАЛ-ВЕСЬ УСТАЛ, КАК ВАГОН ЦЕМЕНТА РАЗГРУЗИЛ😥
czarne malpy sa dobre w te klocki ale do roboty, to juz NIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
dat's it a vocalist--Eric-- OR a slobberest like Mick J
Superb.
Great video and music, never saw this.....thank you!!
This sucks
оне тебе съедят
Only he can pull off this version of the song this way
The people who downvoted this, you need special sunglasses to see what they really are.
.......Reptiles
роллинги в осадок выпали
????? +"+$+*-"!'?"-,&:";+"💪
i prever the stones..... this is not my style
Живое как есть. Это вам не Элтон блядь Джон!
May 11, 1941 - Happy Birthday Eric Burdon! xxx
