David: They’re Homeboys, man.
Conrad: Cesar, Dave, and Little Willie G. on vocals. How great is that?
Steve: WAR was huge to us early on. You can’t be a band from East LA and not have WAR in the conversation, so… we start with a Midniters song and Willie sings the last verse here to complete the circle.

LYRICS:
Walkin' down the street, smoggy-eyed
Looking at the sky, starry-eyed
Searchin' for the place, weary-eyed
Crying in the night, teary-eyed
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Wonder when I'll find paradise
Somewhere there's a home sweet and nice
Wonder if I'll find happiness
Never give it up now I guess
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
There's no need to search anywhere
Happiness is here, have your share
If you know you're loved, be secure
Paradise is love to be sure
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto

As long as people love this band something is right with the world
Yup
The Lobos or War?
yup@@ugoewulonu4936
@@ugoewulonu4936 Hell, both
One of my all time favorite songs being covered by one of my all time favorite bands. It don't get no better than that.
ELA at it’s best! Muchas gracias. Los Lobos never disappoints. Native Sons, what a gem!
110% fresher, jazzier and more soulful than the original! From one of America's greatest bands. Keep on keeping on guys!
This is one of the best remakes of a classic 70's song I've heard! Trippy and a bit psychedelic.... great guitar work boys!
Thee greatest Chicano Band In Califatzlan And Thee entire Southwest bar none thank you Carnales for your dedication to all your fans in this beautiful world of Our musica and gente God Bless 🎸🎵🎶🎼🥁🎹🎷🎺🎙Viva LA Musica
The greatest band. Period!
Thanks for this post! Grateful for CZcams!
Because I love the version by W
ar so much I was a little standoffish to hear this. But this version just blows me away!! Seriously is this a masterpiece and I love it! Thank you for posting!
This completely kicks ass......
Man, It was Colossal Head that hooked me but every single album that comes out is stellar. This one just blows me away.
Los Lobos throwing down some War.. LBC via East LA...
I think Los Lobos has the best rendition
@@arnoldblashak171 ???.. oh no .. it's good.. but War ( Lowrider Band) are Bomba.. their vocals have the feeling of despair and urgency of the times in the 70s.. I like Los Lobos..but they'll tell you what I said.. orale
So nice. I the middle of the song they hit that sweet spot. Just groove so hard. Damn
I remember the glee of one of my favorite LA bands is covering my favorite War song. Viva Los Lobos.
I wish LL could do more albums like this . EXCELLENT !
Excellent. I saw War twice in the 70's and smoked lots of good herb listening to War jam. Love this version but I have always liked Los Lobos.
world class David Hidalgo!
Damn this came out real good. The entire album and concept is great! 👍👍
Orale, homies.
Fantastic 👍👏
Favorite song from album
Very cool......love the guitar work from David...... Orale'
Magnífica versión
The original one is out this world, but this version is very nice.
You guys did a great job on this be safe
Loving this out in S. Korea! Orale carnales!
Man, that is sweet stuff.
Stunned what a version - expect nothing less from this Band - a classic version
Yeah guy’s getting that chilling relaxing feeling love you guy’s 😃
Not bad for a little band from East El Lay. I remember seeing them playing for free in Lincoln Park.
Sounds Good , but correction. the singer on the original War recording was
Morris "BB" Dickerson . RIP BB🙏
YES!!! BB Dickerson sang lead on "The World Is A Ghetto" and my all time favorite WAR ballad "Lotus Blossum"
Bad ads they are. Awesome😌💝
Excellent as always, can’t wait to see them at outlaw music festival. These guys make East LA the only part of the Hollywood area with la Familia. Bless them
Wow. Amazing performance. Rare in 2021.
Still get the same feeling today 04/06/22
This is great!!!
Would be cool if they play this track on their next tour.
Los Lobos
World is a Ghetto
Chicano Style💯
These Hombres never seize to amaze me.
Miss Steve Berlin tho.
Miss Steve ?? That’s Steve playing the Sax Solo on this ..
@@broozebrothers cool
I thought he had left the band a few years ago
@@wolfebeardsnarl5691 nope....
Steve Berlin just (graciously, as always) gave a great acceptance speech on the Grammy stage for their stellar love-letter-to-L.A. album: Native Sons
Amazing Harmony !
Bueno cover!
Nice.
I like the cover as much as the original
By War. Excellent remake Los Lobos
When my brother was growing up
He had your album and he was learning all the guitar parts.
He was in a band called the Blue Satins
I remember the Blue Stains. Saw them in Montebello.
My musical tastes vary from grateful Dead to Yo Yo Ma, Frank Zappa, Johnny Guitar Watson, Chick Corea and Return to Forever, Herbie and Miles, Coletrane and Mingus..... I've seen every single performance Derek Trucks has made in the San Francisco bay area.... Derek trucks band, Soul Stew, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Allman Brothers Band, Eric Clapton..... Ive seen him every time he's been here...... all that being said Los Lobos is the best band on the planet in my opinion. I have ZERO mexican blood in me but they draw me to Mexican heritage. The music, the food, the beaches, the culture. Los Lobos transforms me to another place like no other band has ever done. The last time they played Redding CA they blew the roof off of the Cascade Theater. Their next performance there is 6 months away but I have my tickets hanging on my refrigerator.
All is right
Very Nice Remake.
Exelente🎉.
Tiene algunas influencias de Santana y Jamiroqui en la intro?.
Yo. Now that's good stuff. 🚬 🍻 ... Make L❤VE, ..Not "WAR". 😏 ☮️ 🥂
👑👑👑👑👑🌍🪐🌕⭐🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🎼♥️
who plays vocoder?
I was a fan until I found out they were Trump haters.
I just gained more respect for them!
And what about them, made you think that they would be in line with Donalds world view?
@@Formula-602 Yep.
@@gregfechik4275 they have created some of the best music ever. Fuck politics.
@@gregfechik4275 i’m not done. For four years while Trump was in office Los Lobos toured, made records, and prospered. How dare they complain about the Trump presidency. I hope they are happy paying five dollars a gallon for gas in their tour bus. And one more thing, the latest release sucks. They will never do another Kiko
