THE KNACK My Sharona EXTENDED ULTRASOUND VIDEO MIX

Thanks to some rare footage that their record label released, The Knack's My Sharona is here along with the ultrasound extended mix of the #1 smash from 1979. It is 38 years to the week that I post this, that the song reached pole position in America, and later in Canada and here in Australia. The track has remained one of my all time favourites in the past several decades. It's vibrancy and irrepressible energy have made the power pop classic an enduring masterpiece. The band continued to record and tour but nothing they issued could possibly come close to the stratospheric success that Sharona provided them with. Sadly two of the group's original members Doug Fieger and Bruce Gary are deceased. but the great music lives on. I hope all who see and hear this enjoy it! I own none of the copyright to the images or sounds featured herein, but do proudly possess an enduring love for 'My Sharona' by The Knack.

My dad always complained the critics hated the Knack but we loved them. RIP Dad, Doug and Bruce.

I always preferred the extended version

[@dtdarby]

This extended version gets me more pumped than any other song...

[@utexxas]

One of the greatest guitar solos of all time. Cool to see it extended.

[@marleahstout2395]

At some it, we all need decide and I think this is the best guitar solo ever!

[@giaquynh7599]

Maybe the greatest rock song ever, definitely the greatest guitar riff One of the greatest live bands I've ever seen. Phenomenal. So sad that Doug and Bruce are gone. One of my all-time favourites. Thank you.

[@jamesbarrick3403]

I've often said this is the very best rock song ever. It has everything.

[@Formicula-Formiculum]

Well, I prefer the normal version, because it allread is perfect and doesn't need any extension, imho.

Thumbing through my vinyl as I find a new rabbit hole of music to dive down. The past two weeks…The Knack. Get the knack was one of my favorites start to finish when I was in junior High. Found the album and then found my way to this version. Thank you for posting. My wife is probably not happy as I turn on my 17 speaker system and power up all the amps to this but wow. This version is awesome! Thank you for sharing.

I'm not really into this band, but that lead is pretty cool. He's doing all the classic 70's riffs. It's a great solo

The true sign of being in love or loving something or someone is in the not caring how it comes to you just the fact that it's there so let me just say love this song don't care how long or how short but just to be clear that is a great seven and a half minute version better than we have ever had is it okay if I download it to my playlist

[@marijeangalloway1560]

Someone else had that idea. Don Caron has recorded parody versions of MANY famous songs from all musical genres aimed at Donald Trump and his right-wing supporters. They are hysterical. And one of them is--you guessed it--"My Carona," misspelled a la Trump from one of his tweets. It rocks out as much as the original but includes many more verses without a repeating refrain--I don't know how he sings all the words so fast--I can't do it even though the lyrics are up on the screen. I like to think Doug Fieger would have enjoyed it. While you're on the website check out some of the other great parodies. Since the 2020 election a particular favorite

[@pigalow2002]

That's what I'm saying. I'd love to see the original recording of that. I'm sure it was mixed heavily, but still, I'd love to see it. That's the whole song, for me.

[@pigalow2002]

The song itself, as a whole,.is a classic, unforgettable piece of Americana, but the guitar solo is...more than that. It's flirting with all time greatness territory.

[@58016428]

Video does NOT match the audio at ALL.

It probably was the audio extended play but not the actual video. So they tried to make it fit.

The extensions are, really, unnecessary. The song was already magnificent enough -- merely repeating portions to stretch out the running time didn't make it better.

[@ja031888]

Both music and video, which as others have said do not match, sound like remixes and inconsistent at that. Playing 3 stanzas instead of 4.

[@TonyLovell]

what is the point? the extra measures here detract from the original. Why not give us this video and its audio as they were?

Video not in sync with audio but so what!

it was a very early attempt for me at re-editing clips. Can be most tricky. When it works it is bliss....

[@piferfiles6537]

This is the same B.S. they did in the seventies with other songs. I guess they thought they would be considered 'creative' if they put parts of a song through a looper. Very cheesy!

Great song, fantastic solo, but a boring spliced together version, as it just repeats & repeats. The original is infinitely better.
