Huey Lewis & the News - I Knew The Bride When She - 5/23/1989 - Slim's (Official)

[@AIRBRUSHGARAGE]

Gotta love the 80's rock n roll.... the Harmonica the drums..... these guys were a kick ass rock n roll band

[@brewer9565]

Can we take a moment to marvel at the rhythm section on this great Nick Lowe cover. Mario is a machine on bass hitting those 8th notes and locked in a groove with the drums making it look easy, and it’s anything but. No words for how solid his playing is...just great!

[@peteandurnot]

Agreed. He's an idol of mine. The News actually performed on Nick Lowe's version. So they're kinda covering themselves lol

[@paulstraub7541]

Lll

[@AIRBRUSHGARAGE]

the drums make this song

[@ReubenKincaidJr]

Love these guys.

[@doofus0123]

Excellent cover! I just discovered this today, on June 27th, 2024.

[@ka-pop2243]

I loved how Huey and Dave Edmunds did their own takes on some of the same songs.

[@TheStampedehero]

The perfect cover song for HL & the News. Nick Lowe and Dave Edmunds would be proud.

[@Dawn-lf7pi]

I love this song❤

[@Matthew-jd4my]

The tightest band I ever heard, hands down!

[@dragonfox2.058]

Guess you never heard Santana

[@AIRBRUSHGARAGE]

[@rockhead55]

Simply fantastic! Perfect for Huey, Nick Lowe crafted this song with Huey in mind...

[@rd812]

Relax people. It’s the Huey Lewis version. It’s good.

[@martinbarnes6853]

Great performance. It was a great partnership with Nick Lowe. ...I wonder if Huey remembers a minus zero day in Wisconsin in the early '90's...Ryan, WI.

[@rickgillard2296]

Nailed it perfectly..awesome version.

[@pamraposo1203]

my favorite version right heah.. huey's voice was made for this song!

[@CaptainLightning1]

About a tie with Nick Lowe, but much better than Dave Edmunds.

[@spaztekwarrior]

It’s a perfect fit for Huey and the boys... similar style, sound, and instrumentation.

[@normarmstrong215]

If you can't tap your foot to this tune, you are not alive! NEA

[@johannbogason1662]

great cover!

[@kurtdahle]

huey had tone like no other

[@tinacoates3475]

Loves this song

Amazing groove!

[@sharpo]

I always loved Dave Edmunds version best... Until now. Thank you Huey!

[@TheViolet1961]

Great song !

[@jtshark2547]

For those talking about the Edmonds or Lowe's version being first--they were in the same band. Lowe wrote it for Edmonds to sing and did his own version later

[@hqztonners]

SMOKIN" HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jeffhutton4392]

Huey Rules!!

[@robertbaratheon9289]

It's funny so many people are saying they prefer Dave's or Nick's version when Huey Lewis and the News played on Nick's version. Huey played the harmonica featured prominently throughout his version. You can also hear Huey's backing vocals on Nick's version.

[@hmackie6823]

Huey even surprises me

[@jrodri1538]

Sadly the end of the wonderful 80's.

[@rockrollmagratti7899]

Rock&Roll!

[@TheSamstergangster]

Wow

[@donnaodonnell290]

wish he would go back and do more of these songs in his. concerts now

[@debbiewashburn1000]

Did you ever see the Nick Lowe video version of the wedding! So funny!😅

[@WowplayerMe]

This is right up there with Nick Lowes' version.

[@AIRBRUSHGARAGE]

Huey lewis ... Honky tonk Blues

[@Barbara-jq2se]

I remember a majority of his songs. Although my tastes have changed due to my understanding of/with Jesus Christ & I just personally don’t care for any sexual content in any songs today. I’ve simply changed that’s all. Thank goodness for that!

[@AngelMartinez-qs3cf]

Great cover, oh and the girl who got on stage was cute...!!!

[@joeyparsley2378]

I think I like Nicks then Huey and then Daves. One of my favorites. I also liked go for a soda by Kim Mitchell around the same time

[@yeahright302]

always great when some sexy honey wants to dance with you and will never get thrown off stage!!!lol

[@bobf.5538]

Hw cool was that tight band great nick lowe tune. Huey played harmonica on.nicks song too

[@jonnybirchyboy1560]

Do you like Huey Lewis and the News?

[@brihev4355]

but isn't it similar to "You Never Can Tell", by the real king of rock&roll Charles Berry?

[@kevinwild2218]

Huey played harmonica on Nicks version

[@yeahright302]

thank you mr obvious!!

[@MrJett1971]

Great tune. I'd say I like Dave Edmunds' version best, followed by Huey, then the Nick Lowe original.

[@ssilver996]

Carlene Carter has a kick ass version out there somewhere

[@colinmcphan]

Good version but I still love Nick Lowes original version the best.

[@onebigusdorkus]

Huey produced Nick's version, and The News was the band.

[@MolioMan]

I think Dave Edmunds has always had the definitive versions of this (and many of Nick's songs!). Great version of Dave & the Refreshments doing it - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4vUn6avrKqNpM0

[@patten1962]

Linda Taylor so true!

[@PARADISE7670]

I had some friends do this song for 9 years.. they used to start it out with the words "I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll" twice, like Nick Lowe, then go into the Dave Edmunds version. it was kind of cool.

[@thomaselliott4157]

Yep nick lowes the best linda

[@davidendres7808]

I wish I could hear him

[@jlandon6028]

ok searched it Nick Lowe.

[@jlandon6028]

Who did the song originally?

[@leokreimer6492]

Nick Lowe

[@billdesinger8604]

@@leokreimer6492 No Lowe wrote it. Edmunds released it in 1977, Lowe his version a year later.

[@zevfrombrooklyn]

Only one version matters - the Rockpile version. This one's a pretty good live cover. (It doesn't compare to Rockpile in their day, but no band really can: kzbin.info/www/bejne/inXPhKdsqMR-q7c )

[@mikeflanagan6521]

The hot chick who jumped on stage is probably now a Grandmother…

[@johnrudy9404]

The stupidity the dancing became in the 60s was an abomination. Dancing with youself( hey, I heard a song.....) was abjectly ridiculous. Dancing is because of a partner. The resurgence of Rockabilly has returned COUPLES to the dance floor. Welcome back. Lowe, Edmonds,the Stray Cats and bands now on Bopflix cemented this resurgence.

[@northernhecklet]

Seeing Huey Lewis doing this, the thought that comes to my own mind is : I knew the groom when he used to rock and roll. This is insipid. He's done so much better than this.

[@debbiewashburn1000]

I like Huey. BUT he cant touch Dave Edmunds on this one!

[@aweecoldcanofcok]

Love the song, but Dave & Nick do it better, imo.

[@stephenandersen4625]

Rockpile did it better... but well done

[@2011littlejohn1]

Should change the keyboard to a piano instead of the corny organ.

[@kingsway5921]

Don´t take on what you can´t chew. Leave Dave Edmunds alone. This isn´t even a cover. It´s just pahtetic!

[@caldon03]

You mean like your spelling? Try proof reading. Lastly, I'm curious what your definition of a "cover song" is and where does this performance fall short of being a cover? Just my 2 cents.

[@jacegrunden3543]

This is almost identical to Nick Lowe's version. Nick wrote the song for his band mate Dave Edmunds.

[@rockrollmagratti7899]

Rock&Roll!
