Buddy Holly sang the original version and Humble Pie did its own take of the song in 1969, but this cover by The Knack blows the former two out of the water by a mile. In fact, their version was so great you'd be forgiven if you thought theirs was the original. They practically OWN this song. (Sorry, Buddy)

Catchy. Mid-70's Kinks vibe.

I love their first album, it is the perfect example of 'Power Pop'. They could all play and they were tight as hell. This performance here is really rock n' roll perfection !

Is anyone else sick of yt covertly deleting your posts because it's AI decided you used a "no, no" word? I'm so frustrated at the forced imposing of unjustifiable censorship that's become the norm in the USA that I'm about settled on the decision to become an expat. "Home of the Free, Land of the Brave"? at least 50% of this moniker is still true.The 2nd amendment is upheld to the point that psychologically impaired or diminished persons have the Right to obtain a firearm within no longer than 3 days, but the first amendment, the right to free speech, can be intruded and traipsed upon any time they f****** damned well feel like it. They don't even have to notify you that they're blocking your response or give a concrete reason why your post is being rejected. It's censorship at an unprecedented level. This is an Orwellian novel come true. 1984 is here, it's just a bit tardy. Rhink it's not rampant on yt? I challenge you to check to ensure every post you make to yt actually gets posted. Unless your post is totally benign. (Ie: 'great vid, love the channel!') I promise you'll discover that many of your comments don't make, "the cut" and are left unposted on the yt AI cutting room floor. Censorship has become rampant, it's growing daily and most of us are completely oblivious to it. Start checking ro ensure your posts are actually posted, keep a tally, this way when a civil suit is placed, and thanks to the ACLU, the Constitution and Civil Rights watch dogs, tou you can be represented and get your 'cut' of any collected fines. This America isn't My America, from the 60's-2000. It's a facade, a shell: looks like Lady Liberty on the outside, but inside she's not copper, she's paper mache.😢

Nothing like original rock & roll from back in the day!. I've seen so many "react" vids and over & over they say "they sound exactly like their recording (back then was vinyl). I'm always like, duh, that's why we are still so completely enamored and loyal to our pre 21st century musicians. They're authentic.👍👍🤟🤟✌️

Great song, but the video clip isn't exactly added value, is it ?

Reminds me of my first kiss. Teresa you slut. Always love ya.

😎<three😎

Omg my friend always said when she sits on your face,instead of you know....the original lyrics 😂

Keith Urban

Wtf? Till she puts you in your place....that is not the original lyric.

Good videos don’t. And this one doesn’t either. To hell with this version. It doesn’t sit well with me.

When she’s sittin’ on your face

I love the Knack.

Great performance 👏

Damn, 45 years ago, I was in broadcasting school, I wanted to be a DJ...!!! Sure was a magical time, thanks Doug and Prescott, Bert, and Bruce...!

Watching in 2024. Love this band . Right side of stage i think i see Doug's Sharona. She hides quick when camera is her way .

I like this . Gone too soon Doug ❤

Til she puts you in your place???? That's not the way I remember it!! LOL

Gran,gran solo de guitarra.Felicitaciones

such an underrated band ....great musos!

Naughty Doug Love you. R.I.P ❤

This song kicks ass 👍

Doug you were a dirty handsome man. ❤ 2024

I love Doug but i see at the start he rubs his nose.. and he had a ball of fun on stage. He looks very happy his expressions on his face are beautiful. R.I.P. Doug ❤

❤❤❤❤

Wow, these guys never heard of the two energy crisis that struck the 1970's.... Make the Runaway boys of the Stray Cats looking like the inhabitants of an old folks home strolling to a café after a long visit to a museum....

they were amazing! insanely good songs!

All time classic. The Knack were awesome. This goes out to my beloved one!

Sounds like they invented and predicted the 1990s alternative rock sound

Bye, bye y ¡no nos engañaréis más!

The singer's brother is a high-powered elite lawyer.

Thank you, THE KNACK's members!☆☆☆ "MY SHARONA" always makes me crazy! Greeting from Japan with love.♡♡♡

Who was on tubs here??

This was 10X the earworm Sharona was. Had this dropped first, THEN Sharona, I’d’ve been validated. 😅🤷‍♂️🤘

Now that's a great performance

These aren't the lyrics from the LP. IYKYK 😆

Cool song.

Prefer this version to the cruder one, but "giving you a chance", it's obvious they're not talking about a picnic. Topic is raging hormones.

Their BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love The Knack! One day there was My Sharona, all over the radio. Next day: Boom, they're gone!

Should have been the second single! A riff hard enough to please rock radio. Get the Knack album was recorded in just two weeks at a cost of only $18,000. That's how you make it sound raw.

Too bad it's not the original....

The BEST guitar solo ever

I was really in love with the KNACK, great new wave band! 👏👏👏

One of my favorite bands in the '80!👏👏👏

Thank you sir! I'll never forget summer of '79!

Brings me back to high school driving around in my first car when the radio turned up

Great track. Billy Ward is a fine drummer but have loved to hear Bruce on this one.

They did a cleaner version? There is no wishing you could get inside her pants. And no til she,s sittin on your face!
