& commercialism... Saw him, in concert, in the, early, 90's, what a privilege. Travelled, to Sydney, for that one, paid, for the ticket, makes it, evenmore special. A ticket, to ride, isn't always, what it's, cracked up to be. 🙏
This was the last song my dear friend sent me before he passed away just days ago. He was the smartest music fan and one of the most talented musicians I’ve ever known. Thank you @HiattHouse for sharing this video so he could share it with me.
In today's environment, this song has a great message along with the great tunes and singing! "...Learn to live with love or without it, but there is no cure..."
This song more or less immediately popped into my head when I heard the news of Charlie Watts today, and I see I've certainly got some company in that regard! Great song, it came out when I was about 10 or 11 and just getting into current rock music. And of course RIP Mr. Watts
Here in Rutland, Vermont I’ve seen him twice at the @Paramount theater! He’s significantly worse without his electric backing band! His acoustic version was decades removed from the with band performance!
🎶Banging on the drums alike a Charlie Watts🎶 Immediately thought of this song when I heard the news.😣 "You're going to die,Your'e going to die for sure. Not Fade Away. Not Fade Away *NOT FADE AWAY* !"
a song that SHOULD be shared with the entire world, .......yes, it's been around for quite a few years, yet still relevant. If EVERYONE would just watch this and ENJOY the music.....things might be better. WE CAN ALL "relate" to a damn fine song!!
First off, Thanks for posting this hidden classic! Most people don't know this song, but for those of us who are in the know like us here now, we get it!😄 Great, underrated artist! The Force is with us!!! Oh! RIP to Charlie Watts! Saw you in 81 and 89. You are missed!
Every time I hear this song (which isn't often enough) I have to get up and dance around like a fool (a very happy fool). It's just that good. Love this song & the singer/songwriter/musician.
Down here in Louisiana when we aren't fighting floods, hurricanes, gators and such, we love to dance. Needless to say John Hiatt & Little Feat are big in my neck of the Bayou. Now the Bayou is full of expensive homes, docks, boats & fine lookin' ladies, but I swear we can dance on water when John Hiatt is on.
I hope the flood water is receding and ya'll will be dancing on dry ground again, soon. Little Feat will certainly get my feet moving. Them and Hiatt put out some of the best music.
Erik T Come on Down Brother. We will reserve some table tops or some Bayou Frontage to listen and maybe Dance to some Little Feat, Robert Palmer's Sneaking Sally and Some John Hiatt on the backside.
I listen to very heavy music, but I have always loved John Hiatt. His lyrics are classic. Excellent song writer. Slow Turning has been a favorite of mine for at least 15 years.
I LOVE this song. I'd never heard of John Hiatt until he came out with this album back in 1988 (was it?), and this song was played. I immediately knew I had to get the album, and it was one of my favorite at that time in my life. Brings back some good, and some painful, memories. Great song.
+Mistertbones One of my favorite concert memories was a July 4th show in some dark-ass place in Cincinnati w/ John and the Goners (Sonny L). They are amazing together.
@@aaronexists4308 shit bro your favorite is usually the one you think is the best. Apologies not required for personal taste. If you haven't heard Straight Outta Time from his Austin City Limits recording do yourself a favor and check it out. Top of his game
Hey John hadn't listen to to your song in a while at that time it was wonderful and exciting I picked up my guitar and jammed. I recently fond it .Im sorry to say ( what was his name) I'll never forget John ! Since BLM. Started all should be inspired by it Thank you John Be well Love you man , New Hampshire man says thank you
I saw John in Kalamazoo MI. He came out and shook our hands and talked with us afterwards. And he had done the whole acoustic show alone. He was very genteel and gracious. The man's raw soul, energy and charisma is second only to his talent. Fantastic song. My second favorite of his.
RIP Charlie Watts.....God Bless John for name checking him here.
I Thought of this song as soon as I heard the news of Charlie's passing. He had quite a far reaching impact on musicians around the world.
Mick said that "charlie is the engine, without him this train dont move."
👍
@@theimperialcanis3111 Me too. I just got the Stones reference now with Not Fade Way,as well.
First thing I thought of when I heard.
"They're bangin' like Charlie Watts" RIP
John Hiatt is criminally underated. An assload of more well known country / rockabilly / rock "stars" wish they had his genuineness.
Say it loud
& commercialism...
Saw him, in concert, in the, early, 90's, what a privilege.
Travelled, to Sydney, for that one, paid, for the ticket, makes it, evenmore special.
A ticket, to ride, isn't always, what it's, cracked up to be.
🙏
Sorry for the 14yr delay for a response, but you are right, seriously underated. What a voice.😊
He made Bonnie Raitt famous
I’ve known about him for years but I’m only just discovering him, and I couldn’t agree more with this statement.
Charlie Watts RIP...; he's left the parking lot, the building and now slow turning... not fade away, not fade away...
Great Album, Great Songwriter, 2024.
How many of you out there..can relate..59...and just now getting it 🤣
"I always thought our house was haunted because nobody ever said boo to me." - what a line
This was the last song my dear friend sent me before he passed away just days ago. He was the smartest music fan and one of the most talented musicians I’ve ever known. Thank you @HiattHouse for sharing this video so he could share it with me.
Hi Grinning. Your friend had excellent taste in music. I suspect this song will live with you forever. Best.
‘Cause nobody said “Boo to me”…
Yelling @ the kids in the back… ‘That crazy laugh’… Not Fade Away, Not Fade Away”…Brilliant lyrics & vid. 🎼 👍🏼
Agreed! Such fun lyrics while jumping on my mini trampoline as a kid.
THIS SONG IS A CLASSIC!!!! Heard it the first time in 1987...still love it!
Me too ✋️
Rest in peace, Charlie. A cornerstone of my own life and my music, that was the Stones. One thing for sure Charlie wont fade away.
John Hiatt is so awesome, this song is as good today as it was the day it was written. Time tested
John was unheard of in my circle till I put him on the jukebox in my bar.
And the smiling begins...
In today's environment, this song has a great message along with the great tunes and singing! "...Learn to live with love or without it, but there is no cure..."
This sounds as fresh today as it did when I was 18 listening back in ‘88
Definitely
❤️
Brother John is a genius songwriter. Vastly underrated. A secret for those who take the time or have the luck to be exposed to his music. Wonderful.
John Hiatt is an excellent songwriter and wish he got more recognition - which he so deserves! Love his music.
That’s an understatement.
One of the best writers, preformers ever. Up there with Dylan, Young in my opinion- PAPER THIN!!- for all you wordsmiths out there...
For sure.
I have seen Brother John many a time. What a great guy. He should be much more popular. A true AMERICAN, and a wonderful song-writer.
Just another song that brings tears to my eyes for some reason... Maybe its the celebration of simple living..
John Hiatt is the man!! He got some well deserved noteriety for "Slow Turning", very overdue!!!!
Every life lesson you will ever need is contained in a John Hiatt lyric.
That’s the truth 👍
OMGawd ain’t that da truth
Damn. Straight.
Change your ways,to one,turn from lust right now Repent❗⚠️ for What is the deal if you gain the whole world but stil lose your own soul 💤wake up😴
now that is a true story
One of the most underrated musicians of our time
Him and Ry Cooder. Vastly underappreciated
Agreed! But john doesnt give a shit that hes under-rated which makes him even cooler! 😅
"They're bangin' like Charlie Watts....
always thought that was a great line and a tribute to an even greater drummer....
rip CW
I was lucky enough to hear Hiatt and Shawn Colvin perform this song with two acoustic guitars. The bare-bones version was fantastic!
This tune is bad to the bone, well written, good music, great producing...it has it all; well done John!
This song more or less immediately popped into my head when I heard the news of Charlie Watts today, and I see I've certainly got some company in that regard!
Great song, it came out when I was about 10 or 11 and just getting into current rock music.
And of course RIP Mr. Watts
Same!
me to
Love that gravel voiced drawl combined with the blues guitar. Hiatt is the man.
Love that teeny Charlie Watts ish fill by the drummer straight after “…banging like Charlie Watts”
R.I.P. Charlie Watts!! Thank you John Hiatt!!
John Hiatt. Another great singer/songwriter who never got the recognition that he truly deserves.
Charlie Watts's sad passing brought me here! Great song!! RIP and ROCK ON!!!!
John Hiatt is a LEGEND. His music has made me a better HUMAN
He should be 2000 times as popular as he is
Agree 100%
"Cause they're bangin' like Charlie Watts".
He is so awsome !! I was lucky to see him in concert , he wrote songs for everybody !!!!
Here in Rutland, Vermont I’ve seen him twice at the @Paramount theater! He’s significantly worse without his electric backing band! His acoustic version was decades removed from the with band performance!
This song needs to be released again for a new generation
This is what the world needs right now. One love.
RIP Charlie Watts.
John Hiatt is a total guarantee of musical quality
Another damn awesome song from his wonderful career and so many fantastic albums
This cat can sure play and sing! John Hiatt is awesome!
He did this on Letterman in '88. Nice.
🎶Banging on the drums alike a Charlie Watts🎶
Immediately thought of this song when I heard the news.😣
"You're going to die,Your'e going to die for sure.
Not Fade Away. Not Fade Away *NOT FADE AWAY* !"
a song that SHOULD be shared with the entire world, .......yes, it's been around for quite a few years, yet still relevant. If EVERYONE would just watch this and ENJOY the music.....things might be better. WE CAN ALL "relate" to a damn fine song!!
Roger Sadler well said sir!
How did I get this old without hearing of this guy before.. Fabulous.
Just bad luck I guess!
Luv him, glad Bonnie sang most of his good stuff
Classic song
RIP, fella!
This is so fluid!!! He sings this like he's not pretending to be somebody else!!!
One of my favorite songwriters singing about my favorite drummer.
Simple but profound song. Beautiful.
First off, Thanks for posting this hidden classic! Most people don't know this song, but for those of us who are in the know like us here now, we get it!😄 Great, underrated artist! The Force is with us!!! Oh! RIP to Charlie Watts! Saw you in 81 and 89. You are missed!
I LOVE this song! Since I was 24 (i think it came out in 1986) THANK GOD for You Tube
I dig John's music.😊
Great tune and love the video
John Hiatt is just awesome! Every project he does, whether it’s solo or something like Little Village is incredible! Keep rocking John!!!
Every time I hear this song (which isn't often enough) I have to get up and dance around like a fool (a very happy fool). It's just that good. Love this song & the singer/songwriter/musician.
Good tune from a good time...
Down here in Louisiana when we aren't fighting floods, hurricanes, gators and such, we love to dance. Needless to say John Hiatt & Little Feat are big in my neck of the Bayou.

I hope the flood water is receding and ya'll will be dancing on dry ground again, soon. Little Feat will certainly get my feet moving. Them and Hiatt put out some of the best music.
I was just listening to Lowell George and for some reason, I needed to hear this song as well. Maybe I belong down on the bayou.
Erik T Come on Down Brother. We will reserve some table tops or some Bayou Frontage to listen and maybe Dance to some Little Feat, Robert Palmer's Sneaking Sally and Some John Hiatt on the backside.
He's a wordsmith for sure, plus he puts out on stage totally. The best of both sides.
Great song & video.. makes you wish you were there.
Loved this song ! Forgot about it. Still Great!
It occured to me that someday John too will pass. I will cry like a baby that day.
Been listening to this tune for long time. And I honestly think I luv it more now. And I luved it so much then~!
Great Great song
One of the best songs ever written, period.
Something about this song puts me in one hell of a good mood.
Love the "dancing' by the dude with the white cowboy hat!
One of the best songs ever....and the video always makes me cry with joy. Great job, John, you are legendary!!!
John - you fucking rock
Makes me feel happy_ This is the great power of John Hiatt, his songs turn your bad day into a marvellous one-
This IS one of the best songs ever written!
I listen to very heavy music, but I have always loved John Hiatt. His lyrics are classic. Excellent song writer. Slow Turning has been a favorite of mine for at least 15 years.
Think it was about 22 years ago, first time I heard this song him. Both have weathered the storm well. Thanks John.
JH used to come to sweetwater in MV, CA.....he never cared about fame, he knew how good he was
As soon as I heard the news about Charlie I thought about this song. I’ve been listening to it a lot on a daily basis since.
I LOVE this song. I'd never heard of John Hiatt until he came out with this album back in 1988 (was it?), and this song was played. I immediately knew I had to get the album, and it was one of my favorite at that time in my life. Brings back some good, and some painful, memories. Great song.
Smoking tune 🎶 gots alot of energy
Nobody ever said boo to me great writer
Real deal blues man real life
RIP Charlie Watts . . . . . slow turning
Just plain good music American style. Classic. John is missed.
He's not dead you know.
Still putting out great albums. Last one was 2012's Mystic Pinball. He played New Orlean's Jazz Fest in 2014
Unless it was a ghost, I just saw him live last night in the suburbs of Chicago. LOL
riddler2222 still going strong
New album is a treat ! Terms of My Surrender'
Still producing amazing music
John Hiatt is an incredible musician , his tunes are covered by everyone.. This album has no filler all are stellar ....
I have been listening to John Haiti since
remember (WCMF i believe Dave Cain playing this in 88-89 era) great stuff
Sonny Landreth's slide guitar really moves this song.
+Mistertbones One of my favorite concert memories was a July 4th show in some dark-ass place in Cincinnati w/ John and the Goners (Sonny L). They are amazing together.
JessMacRho the goners ARE the best.
Sonny is a real nice guy in person too. Fantastic to see live
And Ry Cooder on the one before it! Now he's working with Jerry Douglas, and it's better than ever.
Heard this song driving home from my last day of work, sore and hurting. Really brought my spirits up!
Joel Neugebauer all the times you bang like Keith Moon, to many memories with Lake Michigan. Thanks Dad and Mom. I love you both.
NOOGIE 420 Moon was the BANGER!!!
Yup, we love our mom. God Bless All!
Samantha was her name, if she remembers me.
Memories of this song jumping on my trampoline.
It's been a slow turnin, a slow journey, a slow learning, for all of us,huh? LOVE this guy.
Funny song... how come I have tears in my eyes??
John Hiatt is one of my favourite lyricists and a great musician to boot. Love this album, thank you.
Brilliant 90s song!!
Love John Hiatt, clever lyricist and underated musician..
This is his best album
@@aaronexists4308 Stolen Moments is also excellent. Not a filler song to be found.
I apologize. I should have said my favorite (though I haven’t listened to a lot of his enough).
@@aaronexists4308 shit bro your favorite is usually the one you think is the best. Apologies not required for personal taste. If you haven't heard Straight Outta Time from his Austin City Limits recording do yourself a favor and check it out. Top of his game
I implied it was objectively the best. Thanks for the recommendation.
Hey John hadn't listen to to your song in a while at that time it was wonderful and exciting I picked up my guitar and jammed. I recently fond it .Im sorry to say ( what was his name) I'll never forget John ! Since BLM. Started all should be inspired by it
Thank you John Be well
Love you man , New Hampshire man says thank you
One of those songs that just make grin from ear to ear!
Yes, driloc - that’s why I’m here.
I saw John in Kalamazoo MI. He came out and shook our hands and talked with us afterwards. And he had done the whole acoustic show alone. He was very genteel and gracious. The man's raw soul, energy and charisma is second only to his talent. Fantastic song. My second favorite of his.
i love this tune great album. i m used to it for 30 yxears or more and it still makes me sing and shout.
one of my favorjte from Hiatt
Remarkable songwriter and performer!
Love this song. brings me back to the old days. great dance song!
Brilliant and so is underrated John Hiatt!
"Cause their bangin' like a Charlie Watts" !!!!!! Too funny!!!!!
yeah it ranks right up there as one of the better lines in any song
Notice the "Charlie Watts" drum beat when he sings the lyric.
Tim Parker Crescendo,Percussionist!
Glenn Smith Some of the best lyrics ever
Was gonna say the same thing! All the lyrics are great, but that one just jumps right out!
Don't know why it took me so long to be aware of this guy! Damn good!!!
Wish all songs sounded as great as this one!
Absolutely!
There are no words to describe how happy that album has made me. ROCK ON JOHN!!!
He's the man ! cool song and music.
RIP. Your legendary songwriting will never be forgotten
That was John Prine...
