#BlindMelon #NoRain #Remastered #BeeGirl - Hudba
working at a small Vietnamese restaurant in Louisiana, a guy came in and told me he had $7 to buy something to eat and asked if he could afford anything to eat there and I said yes, and he told me that I reminded him of the bee girl in this video and it made my whole day. when I brought him the food I could tell he hadn’t had hot food in quite some time. I played this song for him over the speaker and it made him so happy. He ended up telling me he was chronically homeless after serving in the military and that this song reminded him of better times. I hope you’re doing okay man, wherever you are. I wish you many warm bowls of Pho and plenty more jam sessions
I love you, Marie
And I am sure you are the bee girl 😊
🥲😭😭😭😭
Awesome... thanks for sharing
te amo
This song will always hold a special place in my heart. This was the ringtone on my daughter's phone. It was her theme song as she battled cancer from the age of 14. She passed at 20 and this song seems to play at very special times. A few years after her passing I was helping her favorite pediatric nurse to buy a car. At the moment we closed the deal and shook hands with the salesman, that opening riff played on the dealership's sound system. I just looked at the nurse and said "Jen approves"
Wow. My team are for you. Shannon died so young. The Bee girl just had her 2nd baby
My heart is with you.....and she is is here...and will show up to you again in surprising ways.....love and peace
My sister died suddenly and her home phone had "Sounds of Silence".
Thank you for sharing, God bless you and your family and your beautiful angel of a daughter ❤
Just came here to hear a song i remembered as a child myself. Im sorry for your lost, id like to think your baby girl is in Gods hands now, and somehow part of Gods Plan. Thank you for sharing this.
Sending you big hugs 💛💛
I'm in my 50's now, and just shared this with my teenaged son who has developed a curiosity and appreciation for music. What a time to be alive.
bro, when my nephews found my record collection, and the stories behind them, i got to know 'them' !
...officially the cool uncle!
Show them the ways of the force!
Good 'old' days ha. Miss the 80's & 90's
Recently diagnosed with double breast cancer and this song, in 2024, is still just nothing but HAPPY FEELINGS! Who can be depressed while dancing around the house to this song? ❤
All the best. With an outlook like yours, you're gonna kick some ass!
You will be healed
Couldn't agree more with the comment above, with an attitude like yours, if anyone can beat it, you can! Things haven't been great for me for quite a while now but I truly adore this song (RIP Shannon). There's a lot more love for you in this world than you probably realise, stay strong ❤
❤
JESUS died for you, God loves you so much, seek forgiveness and seek after him, May God Bless You Eternally, in Jesus Mighty Loving Name, Amen 💖
The video almost made me cry, because there is nothing like being yourself and eventually you will find the group of bees you fit into. Never stop bee-ing yourself!
I agree
Also agree. I'm going to pass along your words to my grandson when we can have a conversation (he's 6mos.). Bee-,yourself. I like that. ✌
Almost cry? I think I cry every time I watch it. I think we all were the Bee girl at one time or another, and then we find our place in the world, and then when you get older, we become the bee girl again. Hello in There
This song reminds me of my job I never fit in anywhere...now I'm the happy dancing ( card dealing) Bee!!!❤
I have the same reaction every time I watch this
I don't know about anyone else but I always feel a happy but emotional pain when I listen to the old 90s hits. It feels good but hurts at the same time. Maybe it's just me.
It's not just you. I get what your saying, totally✌😎
being a kid in the 90's does that, a comforting sadness.
Nostalgia
I just want someone to say to me I will always be there when you wake ....... 2019 anyone else
It's just a good song makes me cry
This video always chokes me up… when she finds her tribe… it just gets to me ❤.
we're all really just one tribe :P whether human earthling or bumblebee, just part of the tree of life that is Earth.
@@dingaiaSadly, I think most of us are part of no tribe, really. I had an experience abroad for a time that I think was exactly what being in a tribe would be like. It was the happiest and most content I’ve ever felt, and it was just obvious that it was how life as a human was meant to be. But it’s not at all a reality for most of us living in the developed world.
Just finding peace and maybe your haven
Everyone has a Tribe.
Imagine getting beyond tribalism, different clans, borders, and acting like territorial animals? One tribe, one race, human race.
My father passed 4 years ago. Just asked my mom for an list of things he loved. This song was one of them. Miss you pops. Now I know why i love this song too.
I'm so sorry for your loss!
My dad told me years ago that this song reminded him of me. It will always hold a special place in my heart. I hope it sparks those special memories you both shared. ❤
@@RainybowCloud now I'll think of both our dads when this song plays ❤️
As an inner city African American from Philadelphia who grew up only listening to rap I can honestly say that This kind of music speaks to the soul. Such a tragic, yet beautiful account of being an outcast searching for acceptance, yearning to be amongst other's like yourself... I am still on that journey to this day. Thank you Shannon for blessing us with this masterpiece.... Rest easy
nice post! you might enjoy the deadheads, there are bands all over the Northeast who play Grateful Dead music and the community that gathers is usually friendly and fun! check it out, the music's soulful as well.
We are all hippies at heart.
Are you from west Philadelphia, born and raised, and on the playground was where you spent most of your days?
Hip hop is DEAD...sadly
@@nathanlejeune4295 yea I was chilling out maxing relaxing all cool and all shooting some b-ball outside of the school... how'd you know?
You had to be there. I was a little Black kid in the 90s obsessed with Hip Hop and R&B But this song hit everyone. The 90s were a magical time. The music couldn't have been more diverse. You could dabble in any, and every genre and find multiple gems.
Well said, the 90's were magical
I find it so cool when these type of songs cross over into the black urban Market
Yeah man, the 90's were special.
music has the power to unite
100% yep.
One of the most underrated solos of all time. 🐝
I totally agree about that! This tune is a classic, but it’s a great solo for sure!!
boom. the 'underrated' fetish never fails to arrive...
I've heard way better solos, but this was good. Why is it underrated ? It's probably just under appreciated.

This song will forever remind me of my youth growing up in the 90’s. What a great time to be alive!
So true
Same!!! Reminds me of my high school days!!😢
Yeah, the last of the great decades.....sigh
I do think we will look at history that way- the last decade before all the devices...@@SUGAR_XYLER
It is a very meaningful song.

we had good music back then ....music today has gone down hill
To bad I wasn't alive for this great generation of music : (
The 90s was it's own version of the 60s. Blessed to have been able to experience it.
You're probably right but I've gotta say the 60s, early 70s were really special.
The 90's was the last good decade
Agreed!
Hate the 60's and it's why the 90's is so mediocre. Nothing like the 80's, 70's and 2000's👌. 90's cinema and rap were superb though, gotta give it that.
@@alissa6 the 90’s were more like the 70’s in terms of style and music. Grunge was born from 70’s rock and early 80’s punk
As I'm kissing my mom goodbye in the hospital room- Music videos are playing on the hospital TV. At the most angelic moment, I realise this song way on. This song. The one she showed me on her cassette. The one she loved and sung so beautifully. I miss my mama so much. I don't understand.. I love you. :(
The song, the music, the video, the color grading, the whole theme captures the 90s perfectly. I do miss it. The last decade of the 20th century.
My son recently passed away at the age of 38. My family always liked this song. It didn't hurt that my son looked very much like the singer. Now it's almost eerie to watch but also comforting. Miss ya Josh
Kind of odd...but my son looks very similar too. Sorry for your loss
So sorry your losses...it would be comforting to me too.
My best friend passed and his mom is heartbroken. we all are but.. thats her baby. im so sorry for what happened to your family. Our Jake was still 27 but 38 is still too young. i hope youre doin ok.
Im so sorry for your loss. Shannon was so awesome and gorgeous
So sorry 4 yr loss.. I know how u feel.. I had 3 big death's in 2020.. 🎼😭
Shannon Hoon was one of the coolest most underappreciated front man/lead vocalists ever. 'No Rain' is brilliant even now in 2022.
Layne's best pal. He was the coolest no doubt!
The song is brilliant despite being the worst song on this album and one of the worst they ever made haha. Don't get me wrong, I love no rain and it's a great song but compared to the rest of their catlogue, it pales in comparison and that's okay. Fantastic really.
I appreciated him, the kid was one of a kind and a piece of rock and roll history ❤️

The 90's were unreal and hard to describe capturing all of its magic to someone who asks what it was like. It was a great time to be alive. I'd love to relive every second of it.
seriously days gone by
I really enjoyed reading of this connection ,these moments in life are rare and precious.
I wouldn’t. Yeah, some things were easier, but I was so much more miserable then.

Sorry for your loss, my friend. This song will always exist and he'll always be alive through it! Rock on
Rest in Peace
Sorry for your loss. My condolences. 🙏🏼

17 year marriage, 9 months of divorce stuff, this song got me through it. Sang it loud. Thank you Shannon.
I saw Blind Melon opening for Lenny Kravitz in Paris in 1993...and Shannon Hoon's energy was so atomic that he blew Lenny right off the stage. The Blind Melon set rocked the house so hard, then Lenny came out all cool and jazzy and he was already outshined by his opening act. I remember thinking at the time that there's no way anyone can blast that hard and that Shannon wouldn't live very long.
very hard
@@lababaal Sad that you were right
Damn...show sounds amazing!
That’s impressive, considering how acoustic (-ish, sounding) their one hit is, compared to Kravitz’ supercharged sound.
Why didn't you invite me? Sounds amazing!
Blind Melon:
Looks: 70's
Era: 90's
Music: *TIMELESS*
Blind Melon was like a 90s version of the "Dead"!
Absolutely......
my theory: The band are time-travelling hippies, from the 60s
Great singer/band!

Your comment Is very nice
Love this! I am that bee girl.
Turned a teenager in the late 70's, had the 80's to grow up having fun and the early 90's to become a grown man.
The best of 3 decades.
About six years ago a new girl walked into our office and we have a radio that’s always on, and while showing her around, this song came on, and I have a bad habit of just freezing on the spot when I hear a song I love… and then we both started to sing along to it, every word… And Im like, have you seen the Woodstock 94 version? and she’s like of course I have. I was so impressed with this new person…over time when we discussed our past it seemed like we had gone to all the same concerts and festivals in the 90s… she’s like, I was in the front row of the pumpkins in 98 and I’m like, so was I man! We now live together and we spend way too much time on the lounge watching grunge music videos on CZcams on tv but it all started with this song six years ago
Omg, that's so lovely!! 😭💜
@@RainbowFlowerCrow aww thanks… I never would normally write soppy stuff online, but I feel I owe this song a fair bit, and think it’s awesome that music helps people find their people
Wow, I love your story! Thats really cool to meet someone that shares the same passion about this kind of music.
Beautiful for you no time like now and the place is clearlake California make the life asend like I was free till the end of time
@Weißgold aw thanks bro 👍
When I got out of the Army, I was watching tv at my dads house. He was a navy veteran, frogman. He sat up in his chair, by the end of the video he was standing and clapping. He watched tv for a week , waiting for the video to come back on. When it did , he jumped and hit " record " on his VCR. I think he wore out that tape. I bought him the CD for Christmas. Some great memories, riding in his car listening to Blind Melon.
wow my friend. this is awesome
That is so precious!
God bless you and yours
I love this music blind melon foreveeer
Best. Story. Ever. :)
Blessed to be a 80’s baby and raised in the 90’s rap was great rock was great tv was fun being outside as a kid was amazing songs like these will always be dear to me and keep me feeling young
I share the same time frame. Best era ever. All the music coming out was great. This song gets me through my recovery from heroin use. Seems when I am struggling this song appears out of nowhere. I miss it all.
this song is so happy and yet so dark at the same time, i love it
This era of music is like no other. Such an iconic song from such a time. RIP Shannon Hoon.
Hi April, I recommend taking a listen to a song called 'Where I Come From' By Robert Nix

Agreed. Layne, Andrew, Chris, now Mark, Scott, Kurt, all a great loss.
I think the obvious point of the bee girl is not fitting in and feeling alone. But i also think she represents those of us who try to bring joy into sad people's lives and entertain them. Even if it means being rejected.
What does it mean to be "rejected"? If we have joy, surely sadness will reject us. But if we have enough joy, and other weapons, we can break through the sadness that is holding others down... So maybe... We do make a "fool" of ourselves... Knowing that it ain't foolish at all. Edit: My point is fuck rejection. Reject rejection and sadness with joy and love and peace my brother!
I think its persevering while you find your tribe
@@jordanmunk3041 this actually makes so much sense very wise words.
exactly, the little girl looks like my oldest daughter, and i told she would find her little hive too, we have all at one time felt excluded, some much more then others, every kid should watch this.
@@jordanmunk3041 Feeling rejected is a normal, human behavior. There's not a think in the world wrong with it, we CHOOSE to wallow in it as opposed to learning something from. I also get the feeling you've not raised children, especially when they have their heart broken for the first time.

After all these years. This song still feels like home.
Absolutly👐
For real,
a wonderful masterpiece
Sure does
I'm being sincere, This song sucks, its not good. It sucks.
1992 - this song is awesome!💥
2023 - this song still awesome!💥
I just came back here for the millionth time after listening to send me on my way for the millionth time. I hear these two songs and think of my favorite band Pearl Jam and will honestly say 90s rock>60s rock. I love my classic rock too and Pink Floyd created arguably some of the best music ever, along with zeppelin and the doors and the animals and more, but I still say the 90s music was better and some of it apparently timeless as well. Who knew at the time this little catchy song no rain or send me on my way was actually everlasting?
2023- Give tacos
Would you go back if you could?
1992 I entered university
Preach!
Damn, the 90's had such a vibe.
Everyone was hearing the same music at the same time, all had the same albums, like everyone was living life to the same great soundtrack.
Plenty listened to music others didn't listen to
?
That is literally the exact opposite of the 90's vibe. The vibe was individualism, you just described a cookie cutter vibe.
Lol what? What an absolute load of nonsense. It wasn't like that at all, not even _remotely_ - did you somehow forget that other countries exist? You really think people in Burkina Faso or Mongolia were listening to Blind Melon in the 90s?
This trendy nostalgia obsession is so infantile, it's like you think 90s U.S. rock music videos somehow represented the way the world actually was, which is unbelievably simple-minded.
"The 90s", just like every other arbitrarily-defined decade means such disparate things to each individual person that it's essentially meaningless - all that happened was the Earth revolving around the sun 10 times combined with our entirely made-up dating system - as if 1980 was somehow _innately_ different to 1979 just because the artificially-designated decade changed.
@@0Nafod0lol Exactly, these nostalgia-addled fools have absolutely no clue what they're talking about. The 90s was really no different from any other decade except in largely superficial terms like what music genres and fashion styles were popular, and what was popular depended entirely upon location - and even then, there's always a subset of people who have zero interest in "what's popular" and find their own artistic niche.
But in the end, it's all just pop culture; none of it had any bearing on day-to-day life except for the most shallow, image-obsessed people - which is probably why current youngsters are obsessed with this completely artificial representation of what "the 90s' was like - which only ever existed in music videos, never the real world.
Best compliment I was ever given was when a person I had just met said I reminded her of Shannon. This song definitely is a portal to better days.
This song was with me in my darkest moments of depression in the last 2 years. But I went out of it and life is so much better now. I could get out, and you can too. God bless you all.
Teach me your secrets lol

They so remind me of the 1960's , their vibe and their sound is such a throw back I Dig these Brothers
His voice, that crooning, unusual, psychedelic, whine, is so very 60s. They're very 60s, too
His label should have let them have reasonable time off. Not hectic breakneck touring pace.

My dad passed away unexpectedly from simple pneumonia a couple weeks ago, I was randomly jamming to my rock playlist while I played Forza horizon 5 and suddenly this song came on and it damn near through me into a temporary catatonic state as I just remembered so many memories I never knew I had of me chilling as a kid in the back seat of my dads old GMC pickup as this song would come on the radio on Q107 so often, so many different memories of the car and this song and him. Amazing times I never knew I wanted to remember until I found this song again, thank you Blind Melon for the nostalgia; I keep it close to my heart
So sorry for your loss homie, I truly am. My Dad is my best friend, and he is getting up there in age these days so I try to cherish the time we have left
I too grew up in the 80’s/90s and this song just has an amazing connection to that time. And funny enough, I would hear it on Q107 as well! I grew up in Niagara Falls area. Wish you all the best, I know it’s gonna be tough for a while. But hopefully you have other people and family that you can share memories of your Father with
Peace for you bro.
@@Day-ZDuke Hey man love your message, thank you. My dad was my Best Friend too, he taught me what it's like to be a man, and how to be a man people can rely on.
Cherish those memories with him cuz lemme tell you, one day the potential to create more will be gone a lot more suddenly than you could ever expect. I kept telling myself "ehhhh, I'll find moments to make up for it" then one day he got pneumonia being a heavy smoker his whole life and bam, within 3 days he was gone.
whatever small moments you can procure, do so, cuz in the end it's only for your own benefit and trust me without doing so might just hurt you enough to do something stupid.
I miss my folks more everyday. Sweet precious memories until we meet again. …Tom

To be 15 again my hour of darkness to save me
In my experience, nothing tops being a 90s teenager. All those shows and music.
This clip is the best video against depression ever made. It means that, if you feel that others can shape your way of life they're totally wrong. World is huge, and you're a necessary part of it with all your imperfections.
I love it when it rains.. I look forward to it. I get depressed when it doesn't for long periods of time. that's why I moved to Oregon from Bay Area, Calif. R.I.P Shannon. I saw em twice in the 90's as well as many many others including Sublime.. etc. Counting Crows also.
I'm glad Bumblebee Girl found some friends who truly understand where she's coming from. May we all bee so lucky.
Bumble Bee Girl 🙃
One of the most memorable music videos of the 1990s.

Not a one-hit wonder.. They also had "Tones of Home," "Galaxie," and "Toes Across the Floor."
Andrew K I loved Tones of Home and Galaxy better than No Rain, but damn, they're all good!
umm the lead singers death due to overdose could have something to do with the fact they didn't release anymore songs, just sayin
it was pretty iconic
I was in the check out line at a Stater Bros. in the SoCal High Desert when this song started playing on the overhead speakers. Now, I'm a 67 y/o musician/ex hippie. I told the female cashier and the woman ahead of me, "I love this song". Both ladles smiled ear to ear and responded positively about this songs vibe. If a song can brighten up the day of three absolute strangers, that's a magical song! ❤
Who in 2024??

The 90's were WAY more pure and innocent than some believe and have commented here. They didn't suck for us 80's kids. We didn't have technology like the Internet to teach us way more than we needed to know as teens. We just had each other and music from MTV and, trust me, that was more than plenty of the outside influences we needed to manage to find ourselves in some trouble! Now, the info is everywhere and my children's generation are "junkies" of a different kind. The innocence is lost and it's going faster and faster all of the time. I still remember listening to this song as a preteen and loving it, the melody and all- even though I never really *listened* to the words to gain even an ounce of understanding as to what the lead singer of this band was going through but I hear it now and WISH someone would've listened back then and *saved* him. R.I.P. And know that the whole world will always be able to hear your song and hopefully learn from your words by reaching out.
+Small Town Girl Big City Heart Even I was only seven or eight when this song came out, and I knew it was something special even then.
1980 baby, and couldn't of said it better 😀
I agree with every single word you said. Right on.
+Small Town Girl Big City Heart
The 60's and 70's were as well.. all we had we TV, Radio and Uncle Sam... for intel..
I have a friend that is a state police officer , and he's said that drug abuse has increased in Michigan rapidly in the last few years and unfortunately its mostly females with the drug and alcohol abuse issues.
Nothing can top the color grade of every 90’s music video, it’s one of a kind.
The hole aesthetic of them was amazing!
i don't like the nitty gritty colour grading of current music videos
The vibrance is uplifting
SPOT ON!
It all have that dreamy, nostalgic, cozy, familiar yet melancholic look to it.
GOD I MISS MY MTV ..BESTTTTTTTTTTT ERA ..ROCK,HIP HOP, R&B, SOUL, WHAT HAPPENED TO MUSIC 😢
One of the most upbeat sad and depressing songs. No wonder I’ve always been drawn to it since I was a teen in the 90s.
Hi I recommend a song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
Never sounds sad to me. It's quite a beautiful piece of music and melody
it always make me cry
@@poom641 doesn’t sound sad? Buddy listen to the lyrics.
Upbeat sad and depressing is a wonderful way to describe the 90s as well.
Watching this on MTV when it actually was a music channel was great
The good old days.... when shit made since.
Agreed.
Love this song
Definitely 💖💖💖
What is the point of mtv?
That Windows XP default desktop in the background 😭
I saw these guys in Atlanta mere weeks before Shannon died. They were awesome. I've always liked them.
Ian Crossland’s vocals are just amazing.
The GOAT!
And just like that I'm not 52 anymore.....I'm back in my living room aged 24 dancing to this ❤️
So you were 24 when i was born, Aunty Jane
Enjoy life and the gift of music whenever you can.
thought i was the only once who danced to this song
You and me both, Jane. I was 24 and all doors were open.
You look like you're 24. I definitely need to figure out how this song ACTUALLY changed your age....
To those of you still looking for your tribe remember... we're still looking for you
I needed to hear that man, thanks
Aman....
I quit looking a long time ago, now I'm a tribe of one with many cats.
Awww... I needed to hear that too... Tribe is here... Just need to connect..
What tribe??
And still 20 some years later I love thus song! Takes me back to my teens!!
THE TRUE QUEEN "B".
I've always loved the part where "Bee Girl"/Heather DeLoach finds all of the other Bee Folks. That look of excitement as she looks through the gate and sees them all there doing their happy Bee dances and just frolicking, that always makes me smile!
what
I love it too. But it makes me think that they are some kind of cult
this is my daughters favorite song. she loves it when she finds all the other bumblebees. such beauty
@@daisybarnard3277 we all in a cult you just dont realize it
On-top of the dark lyrics being countered by uplifting music and the film clip done well enough to make you cry in lonliness then joy it's really a masterpiece this film clip.
I always hope this song brings him comfort wherever he may be now.
This just hits a spot that isn't hit often with music these days 🖤
Would have loved to have seen everything they could have accomplished . Thanks Blind Melon !!
This was back when it was still cool to make music that sounded like 20 or 30 years ago. See also: Oasis
All of the music these days that are popular are pretty much boring trash. I admit there are still some good songs but the newer pop is really terrible.
I always like seeing black heart emojis. Seeing it makes me think back to the ninth grade, and I welcome the memories.
So right it reminds me of Grateful Dead days rollicking chill music no worries and living in the present
This song was on repeat for me when I found my partner. To me he's so Shannon in this video and I am the little bee finally finding her place after coming across him. ❤
I Love you Father God in Heaven ❤
I'm old. This is my daughter's music. Still, I play this often...with a smile on my face and tears running down my cheeks. Good music knows no generational gap.
This is 1 of the songs on my sound track for my funeral. There are many but this one is strong.
You were supposed to keep your cheeks dry today!
@@edwardfetner2513 I try to, every day! Sometimes I just watch the puddles gather rain.
Now I know what's going on behind that hill on the Windows XP default background....
a tad band a huge tap dancing bee orgy fest
lol so funny!!
No joke, but I think this video INSPIRED that background. I wouldn't be surprised now that you mentioned it. That would be awesome.
really ????
nope bliss (the backrounds name) is a real photo
❤Thank you All The Saints in Heaven.Glory to Our Kingdom Heaven ❤
I love how well Ian Crossland was able to express himself in this music video. Great job Ian!
LMAO Graphene
Lmao, that’s what brought me here 😂
My dad used to listen to this and I couldn't find the band name for life of me for years! Now here it is! BLIND MELON! F ck I miss you so much dad, R.I.S.P.
Lol
im sure he misses you
glad you found what you were looking for man. I'm sorry about your loss :(
Rest in peace dad I'll never forget getting up for school and me and you n Blind melon no rain
How old are you? My dad used to play these guys when I was younger too. Sorry to hear about losing him, hope you’re doin well.
How the fuck can someone hate this song?
Well, there's always at least ONE guy, who gives a dislike
because they don't have souls. that's how.
Congratz on beating Cancer! Go Bills!
SCUBA Diver Congrats on being the greatest wrestler ever
wrong Steve Austin. Think older....
Letra - Letter - Lyric
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watching the puddles gather rain
And all I can do
Is just pour some tea for two
And speak my point of view
But it's not sane
It's not sane
I just want someone to say to me
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'll always be there when you wake, yeah, yeah
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today, hey
So stay with me and I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape
Escape
Escape
Escape
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
You don't like my point of view and I'm insane
It's not sane
It's not sane
I just want someone to say to me
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I'll always be there when you wake, yeah, yeah
You know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today, hey
So stay with me and I'll have it made
I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
And I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
Oh no, no
You know we're really gonna
Really gonna have it made
You know we'll have it made
When ever this song came on at work i just wanted to leave go home stop at the bottle store get beer 🍺 and drink in my shed especially if it was real sunny🌞
Underrated band. Underappreciated song. Should have hit Billboard Top 10. Badass blend of guitar strings.
Hi I recommend a song called 'The Bond Villain' By Robert Nix
0:51 so that's where Green Day stole their 'Basket Case' from...
Was a big hit in Australia at the time
@@user-mm3sd3uh6yno way basketcase was from their 91 album
or 94 dookie album? it was recorded sep-oct 1993! blind melon album was released a year prior@@keiserwilhem5543
I just love how when she steps thru the gates she's instantly accepted and they celebrate a new person finally finding home
Yeah they all recognized her.
That moment in the video just makes me so happy. I hope one day everyone finds there group of bee people. I haven't found mine yet but I'm still trying to remain positive.
I know right!?!? 😭❤️
Elephant's will do the same as far as accepting into their herd. Females and young elephants, bulls are a different story as some are not so nice.
What a fantastic and delightful song
One of the best and most tranquil songs ever written in my humble opinion. I remember it in a movie and that movie was Without a Paddle.. brilliant movie
This song hits you differently the older you get
Hi I recommend checking out a song called 'The Bond Villain' by Robert Nix
@@redskies4530 hi how about no
so true!!
Made me well up... It's like they knew how being different would become an agenda.
This song hits different when you're older...and lost everyone to overdoses...RIP
I love this video...especially when she looks into the gate and finally she's able to see a reflection of herself. It always remind me that there's a tribe for us all. Awesome Song! RIP Shannon Hoon
Todays is our first day since Christmas we've finally had NO RAIN!
So of course, I came here to listen & share....
RIP Shannon.
I always admire them 🥰🥰🥰
Man our generation was the coolest. The 80's and 90's were a magical time!
agree
The most magic from the 60’s
Was magical
I unfortunately grew up during the Lame "Boy Band" era
That's because you missed the 60's and 70's. You think you know "cool" but some of us know you're wrong. But yeah, those years were packed with fun and adventure for me too. I got to Miami when I was 21 in 1979 and well, it got crazy.
I'm 44 now and was about 16 when this came out. Found out I have aspurgers last year, but still haven't found my fellow friends... In so much pain. People misread me so much and lost so many friends over the years, dunt have any left. Thank God for my hubby of 20+yrs who does understand me.
I'll talk to you
You will find your people my love 💚 Aspergers/ autism can be so hard for people to live with always being misunderstood. My sister is autistic and she found school hard etc. I hear you and hope you’re doing okay xx
I’m about the same age and remember when I first saw this video. It still speaks to me. I’m still waiting to find my bee party.
@@donaldpfeffer104 I am that Bee!!!
You have a friend in Jesus!!
It's incredible and off the charts! Wow
"All I can do is read a good book to stay awake, and it rips my life away when it's a great escape." Shannon was like me in that regard. Plus many others. Rest well, Genius.
I drove cross country in 1992, and this was on all stations. It's such a great driving/singing out loud song through the boring states. God, Shannon is so missed.
0:51 so that's where Green Day stole their 'Basket Case' from...
all the states of our country are beautiful. please don't just dismiss some of them as boring.
For whatever it’s worth, these guys were from the boring states!
This song was Shannon's cry for help disguised in a happy tune.
