Lyrics:
She doesn't own a dress
Her hair is always a mess,
You catch her stealin' she won't confess
She's Beautiful.
Smokes a pack a day, but wait,
That's me, but anyway
She doesn't care a thing
About that hair,
She thinks I'm beautiful
Meet Virginia - Hudba
RIP Charlie Colin (November 22, 1966 - May 22, 2024), aged 57
You will be remembered as a legend
Rip Charlie and thanks for EVERYTHING you made special
Song really shaped my childhood.... Miss this mans life, even though I never followed his life after this song
My Dad has passed away this morning and he always had loved this song! I love you Dad, I pray that your now with The Lord! 🙏🏻❤️
Sorry for your loss
He is
Sorry for your loss
❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏😇
God bless you and your family, your Dad sounds very cool!❤
A brilliant song! 1999 was a great year for music. Thanks Train!
My mamas name was Virginia....this came out around the same time she died in 1998...i was 19 and utterly alone in this world....this song would comfort me...i cant wait till this life is over so i can go home and meet Virginia...i miss her so much
Songs are just like bookmarks in life ✌️🌎❤
Just worked his show last night. He deserved more people. What a crowd. That 5000 people sounded like 20000. It was crazy. The staff and I couldn't believe it.
It’s rare to catch a true music performance now
@@Chopper140 Pink 👩🎤🧑🎤👨🎤
I’d be their biggest fan anyway. 90’s-2000’s baby!
Puts on a great show
And I'm Joe Rogan
Today; a member of Train passed away ! 😔 Your band is still awesome 🙏 rest in peace
Interesting how you really don't notice how good a song is till years later in your life. Emotions are stronger than anything.
we lost good music atleast a decade ago
I'd be honored if some 90s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal CZcams performances of MEET VIRGINIA by Train, NAME by the GooGoo Dolls, and "1979" by the Smashing Pumpkins in tribute to 3 of the most iconic songs of the mid/late 90s. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Peace out and stay safe in the '020s.
I don't really wanna....
True, I liked this song instantly when it first came out and like it even more now in 2024.
Peter: Brian I love Train.
Brian: I F***ing love train!!!
@@viewsfromthetris5913 Same
Keep them confused Virginia
Literally, typed "train she never compromises" in CZcams after that scene . . It was too quick for me to SoundHound it 😁.
That scene brought me here

Rest in peace Charlie 🙏🏻
Rest in peace Charlie Colin!
We had the best era growing up with songs like this ❤️
This is one of Train's best, and underrated songs, truly excellent!
June 2020. This is playing at the airport now. Thank you for the smile on my face. This song is timeless...
Lol isn’t it funny when you stop and listen how life takes you back to what was ninth grade for me I’m 36 now WOW where does the time really go it’s surreal
You're one of the few flying these days.
I'd be honored if some Train & late 90s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of MEET VIRGINIA czcams.com/video/BBZjAq3n4z4v/video.html and BITTERSWEET SYMPHONY by the Verve on my YT channel in tribute to 2 of the most iconic songs of the era. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Peace out and stay safe.
It's @ugust 18 and I know that I lo e this song... Thank you Train make more for me in this pandemic
How/why the hell are you at an airport in 2020 ?!?!
Had to come and hear that guitar/bass intro again- was hooked as a kid the first time I heard it and it’s what made me want to learn bass. Rest easy, Charlie Colin!
The music that came out between the 90s-00s is arguably the absolute best era for music. So many one hit wonders that are timeless. You got bands like this, the grunge era which produced some of the best singers and front men of any era. I'm not sure you can touch this era of music and nostalgia. Please just take me back to that time.
Train was more than a one hit wonder..
@@Canadianboon Yes of course i never said Train was a one hit wonder.
Agreed.
I love the lyrics because Virginia is a girl who will go along with everything, she contradicts herself, goes along with all the trends and is miserable because of it. Virginia could be many girls on Twitter or Social Media today, so the song is timeless.
@@jonasabry9099 That is totally not what i got out of this song. Read the lyrics and seems and watch the video. Seems a lot more like she is just stuck in a dead end life and she is got depression. I don't see anything about going along with trends in this song
"her confidence is tragic, her intuition is magic" just hits me Everytime.. even in 2020
Damnnnn girl
This song is truly a masterpiece, it’s beautiful
FR BRO but ur username...
@@ilovemusicssooomuch283look whos talking LOL
yes im aware im 2 years late to this. couldve been 3, couldve been 7. ;)
I can relate to this song. There are many Virginia's ( that aren't named Virginia ) out there. The girl that isn't sure what she wants in life, has gone through a lot and learned to lie and steal to get by, acts strange from the rest, and is not happy with the direction their life is going. Despite all of that, she is loving and nurturing. Finally, their intuition is magic.
I consider them to be roses that bloomed through concrete.
that doesn't make any sense she's like 22 lol how much coudl she possibly have gone through. If virginia was like 40 then i can understand
Magical
"her confidence is tragic, intuition is magic" his me Everytime right in my soul.
@@aakksshhaayy I was 4 years old when my mom died and my dad went to prison.. some of us live tragic lives very young
@@wisesurvival6850 Agreed! I was diagnosed with PTSD by the time i was nine years old from events no one knew were going on. Abusers are slick, they know how to have most other's completely snowed by being able to flip from one personality to another.
Heather, I'm truly sorry to hear about your childhood, that must've been very traumatic for you. I hope your later years have been kinder to you. 💕
This song kills me every time I listen to it. I always tear up and then eventually just let go crying. My mother passed away in 2011 and she loved this band. Her name was none other than Virginia. Most of the lyrics in this song describe my mom. She was the best mother who gave me the best childhood a little kid could ask for. I am 31 now and miss her so damn much. If you are reading this and you still have your mother, please tell her you love her all the time and hug her tight. I love you mom. I can't wait to meet you again Virginia!
Update 4/6/2021
I've been completely surprised by the overwhelming positive responses since I first posted 3 years ago. I wish I could hug you all. Instead I will raise a toast to all of you and enjoy a bottle of wine.
Since my post, my wife and I had a baby girl in March 2019. We named our daughter Alice Virginia in memory of my mother and my wife's mother. Both our mothers passed the same year of 2011.
I decided to respond again because I just lost my Uncle today. He is my mothers only sibling. They were the best friends of each other, because of losing their own mother as baby's. Their mother was only between 20 or 22 and they were 1 and 2 years old.They formed a bond that could never be broken. They were raised by their father, who died at 55, their grandpa, and their second mommy, their grandma. I was reminiscing and decided to listen music that takes me back to the great times I had with my mom and uncle.
Losing my uncle today has literally left me with nobody on my mothers side of her family. I am just devastated. The loss of my uncle was the last of my mothers memory. I am very grateful he was able to represent his mother, father, and my mom to witness my kids being born.
My wife had a miscarriage in January of 2021. It would have been a blessing to have a third child and my uncle witnessing it. We lost two lives this year sadly.
So on this day of April 6 of 2021, my uncle went to heaven to Meet Virginia, his sister...again for eternity. RIP Mom and Uncle Joe. Life just got harder without you both.
To you reading this, I Love You.
sirk425 I'm sorry for your loss 🎶
you should have the end of your text if you're reading this you must have another no I don't I don't know her father but I know where they are and I know your mother's is fine is fine more than fine believe me she's okay probably wishing you were okay remember her as if y'all were together she's a feather in the Wind a bird on your shoulder if your hair blows back and there's no wind blowing that's your mom she's okay just hoping you're okay she's only sad when you're sad hope this helps not hurts she's with you sweetie believe that Blessed Be
My mom's name was Virginia as well she passed in 2012. We were like peas and carrots haha really she was a great mom like your Virgina but she lived to be 88 and if only she had suddenly died in two weeks I was going to fly to see her. Hope to see her too on the flip side.
Messed up..meant if only she didn't pass so suddenly I had a plane ticket to see her 2 weeks later. I miss her everyday and probably always will till my dying day.
sirk425 I cry every time I hear this too nd wen he says she pulls her hair back as she screams I don't wana be the queen I do the same nd there go to the tears...
the 90's a great era of music
99
@@wilson4 a lot of these songs remind me of riding the school bus to middle school.
I was at Wal-Mart this morning and this song was playing. I nearly fell into tears as this song brought me back when I was in high school when this song came out. I'm almost 45 years old now. Reading the lyrics to this song made my day. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it is skin deep.💋
Same thing happened to me tonight at Burger King in the parking lot of a Walmart; I am 39.
@@JackDanyaKemplini cant really relate to listening to this during the time it was new, but ive been listening to Meet Virginia probably before i could string together more than 2 words. im turning 17 soon, and i heard the song and i havent listenee to it in quite a long time.
I don't know why, have always loved this song and known the lyrics since way back when I first heard it at 17. I'm 40 now!
I’m 34 and was a child when this song was on the radio and it resonates so much with me now it’s insane. I don’t want really want to be a queen!!!
Truth. I'm 40💜💔💜
but you are
I’m 34 and this song takes me alllll the way back to middle school when me and my cousin shared a bedroom and we would listen to good ole fm radio all night and this was a jam back then which is very nostalgic to me. 80s Baby growing up in the 90s boy what I’d give for the world to be like it was then because people are going absolutely nuts in today’s time!!!!
34 too
Amen
36 & nostalgic
I'm 34, too. Turn 35 in a couple months. Welcome my fellow 34/35 year olds. I miss the music of OUR elementary/junior high days. There was a noticeable downturn in music around 2003-2004 in high school though
100% Fully Motherf*ckin' aGREED...
This song is a national treasure
After high school I worked in a sporting good store in NYC called “City Sports” in 2000. I sold shoes, and pretty much worked retail. This song was on loop because it was a corporate approved playlist. It was in those months that I was working there that I decided to join the Marine Corps, while this song was playing in the background. Little did I know what I was getting into, this song comforted me and made me feel like everything would be ok. And it did turn out ok.
20 years later and still a fave!
This song always reminds me of my baby sister - 1967 - 1991 may she rest in peace, her biggest fear was that she would be forgotten, If you have a Virginia in your life you will never forget them!! This song always reminds me of the hole in my heart and makes me cry.
Loved this song!! So sorry for the loss of this band member. This was soul!
The music from the 90s and 2000s has a nice beat of that time era. The groups and bands have a different beat of singin. During the time with the vocalizing style and instruments were great variety.
Brian I love train
I fucking love train
I am here for that exact reason 🤣
That's where i came from
That makes at least 4 of us
@@noobydiablo Me Five...
Me too 😀
She’s a free spirit that’s awesome ! Lots of Virginia s out there. Hugs to them all 💜
Well I’m about to have a granddaughter named Virginia, and all I can hear is this song in my head!
Classic.. Pops in my head out of no where.. Piece of the past for sure!! 💯
I saw them again last night in concert..AMAZING live, and hearing this song never bores me! If you have never seen them, do it!!
They are even better in person!!
One of my favourite songs that I wanna play when I reflect on my 90s childhood
i've been assembling my broken mind from it and trying to get to know me beyond the bad memories of imposing pedophiles contradicting that
@@jacobmartinelli7496 sorry to hear that, hope you find healing 🙏🏿
She never compromises loves babies and surprises- her confidence is tragic her intuition magic
I have had this song dedicated to me so many times in my life (my name is Virginia Kristine). The older I get the more it makes sense. I've grown to really love this song!
My name is Virginia & my mothers name is Christine lol! Love that.
WebMD
This song always takes me back in time. I can remember this being on the radio all the time in the early 2000s. Simpler times back then.
fo sho
We Need more train songs like this. This is my type of music on any given day.
I saw you open for Collective Soul at Waterloo village in NJ June 26 1999. First concert ever. Blew me away.
Dont care what anyone says train is gas
It's called Diesel!😂😂😂
Fantastic song musically too! Drummer is packing a good groove like he means it, bass is fantastic with such tasty fills and choice of notes, and the guitar lead with that kick at the end is fabulous! They were all in sync when they recorded this one.
This is so wild that this song has so few views compared to Drops of Jupiter (13 million at the time of writing). I remember this song being pretty popular in 1999. And it was a hit for them. Obviously Drops of Jupiter was a bigger hit for them, but this song came first. Meet Virginia walked so Drops could run!
You know… I’ve never listened that close to this song till now. I’m in a dark sort of place. But I’ve known better. I can do better. I’m here. Queen or servant. Let it be.
RIP Arlene, a true "Virginia" if there ever was....I miss my baby sister 1966-1991 gone way too soon!
Very young. So sorry
Totally my late auntie. Love you Aunt Virginia.
Love how I can drunk find this song by just typing
*Wears high heels while she exercise*
The art of keyword searching lol. That's how I be finding stuff too!😁
I always find it by “smokes a pack a day wait that’s me but anyways “
Micheala Mackenzie your a real one
I found it by searching “she only drinks coffee at midnight.” Heard it at work and I’m in love
I genuinely typed that in as well, because I could not think of the title!
I played this song just because I wanted to drink coffee and its 1:20am and I needed musical inspiration:)
Brent anderson holy cow, one year after your comment, it's 1:02am and I'm drinking coffee. woah, man
Taylor Natkin 2 weeks later at 1am I'm listening to this song and having some wine 😉 lol
Brent anderson it's 1:42 am and I'm drinking coffee and it's 2 years later. This is strange lol
Sounds like me when I am driving to no where to clear my head. Ahhh the memories from 90s songs.
It's 6 am,I just woke up. I'm sick.. food poison. But this song just came to mind and I had to listen to it.
F'in banger of a tune
Patrick and the gang write my life song like No Other! My bows and applause (applesauce) for the rest of my live long life!
Only 3mils??! such a great song... car rides with my mom singing like maniacs to this😫😂😘😘 cheers to bonding times🌸💟💞🌟
This is one of my favs since i was like hell ten years old i swear
Me too
Sad song.
This song keeps calling me back here. I love it.
This song is heavenly.
Wish I could
I’m leaving
Too many
Shit
Omg beautiful
Like Josh
Back when Train was cool. On another note, it's weird how this song goes from light and fun to serious and dark in the chorus and then back to light.
Back to your first note, Train is still cool. Saw them a few months ago! Love Bulletproof Picasso. :)
Nicole E that is the point my dear - that is what makes this song so brilliant, unlike most songs - it gives you the radical emotional swings of the woman he adores
Train hasn't concluded their coolness. Going strong since 94!
Music Guru I agree. I like the dark part better myself.
Nicole E I've always thought of them as edgy pop rock, and they've always sounded consistent with the content of their songs.
you can't dethrone this group for me , they will forever be the best quality band to share their talent with us all xx
Totally agree! My love for them is forever, So happy to have met them a few times. So sad that Scott is no longer with them. :(
Rachel Mcadam you are absolutely beautiful
And you have the nearly same name as a beautiful actress--Rachel McAdams
Shento pads? ARMY here.
marry me
Reminds me of my mother she died when I was a teen. One my favorite songs.
I saw them play this live in Philly when I was junior in college. They were playing a free acoustic set on the first floor of HMV on Walnut Street. It was awesome. 2 years later, I got a job at Tower records. That experience was too cool.
Awesome
Did Joe CNC your student loan?
One of the greatest songs ever written.
This song played in the hardest times of my life, and the best times. I will always have a deep love for this song 💕
That drum fill at 3:14 is genius.
This song gives me a feeling that I can’t explain ❤️
Me too. I've connected to since it came out in 1998.
@@Sweetie_abundant_heartI’ve heard it over and over in the past. Never connected till now. Songs and quotes flash into me head when I’m going through things. Today I was going through a moment of pure conflict. We’re here for a reason. Whether we like it or not. Queen / King or servant. Let it be. Take the role like royalty, but always keep striving.
Makes me cry for simpler days.....
My favorite song by them. Not all trains songs have to be happy.
This is wholeheartedly my favourite song. It’s been forever and no song has ever lived up to it*
I'm a musician and love lots of different types of music. But there was always something about this song that always got me. Have to say one of my favorites. Everytime it comes on, i just think, turn it all the way up and sing along.
Love This Song .. Along with drops of Jupiter and calling all Angels .
Alex Medina don’t forget Hey Soul Sister!
Yesss...
Yeppers on all the above me 2 . and what did his mom pass away from RTR
@@RahimoI hate hey soul sister. It's just so overplayed
Drops of Jupiter is complete shit but this one is good
All the songs I've heard from train have been exceptionally written
Meet Virginia by Train is an incredible song with very creative metaphors to describe a charismatic type of prototype.
When it comes to this hopeful energy of Meet Virginia by Train I admit that I am probably going to more likely connect this song to positive connotations from first hearing the song at a time in my life where I literally felt like the sky is the limit (late 90s as an idealistic 19 years old).
🪞💜
Still their best song. Saw them with Hootie and the Black Crows in 2000. Incredible
Whoa! That must have been a hell of a show!
I lost my Mom 10-6-2021 She loved this song when I hear this song it makes me think she is here listening to this song with me atlease I like to think she is!
I knew a couple of women like this as waitress when i worked for a large chain in the late sixties. I married one of them and tomorrow we celebrate fifty two years together.
Love This Song .. Along with drops of Jupiter and calling all Angels .
Meet Gloria--Bus
Never have been one to care what was "cool". I like what I like, and don't care who likes it, and I like Train!
February 2022 and putting this on as a get ready for work breaking down crying. This song truly is sometimes the only thing that gets the through the days. Thank you for such a beautiful song.
❤️
Hope your week improved V.
I'm from Birmingham , England. I just can't understand why Train are not the biggest band on the planet. Saw them here last year. Amazing.
This song is a travel machine 😳😳
My real name is Virginia and I sang this all day to myself 😛😊🤣
I can't wait to meet you, 'real name is Virginia'.
Just sent this to my Great Auntie Virginia .... I can't wait to meet her!
Hi Cj,hope you’re okay ?
Started dating the woman of my dreams months back, named Virginia, this is our (my ) anthem. I can’t help belting it every time I think of her or introduce her to anyone .
This song is so amazing and inspirational
how so?
Love the song but you can tell me what is it about
My mom's name is also Virginia.......passed in 1984. I name my cars after her ;-)
He is coming to my town . Can’t wait ❤️
This song’s lyrics are sad, but I love hearing it. It brings back a lot of good memories and makes me happy every time I hear it.
Love ALL these songs but I love all kinds of music. MUSIC IN MY LIFE BRINGS ME PEACE OF MIND YOU KNOW IT HELPS ALOT MUSIC MATTERS! 🎲💯💯💯
I will never not love this song. Came out when I was in school and I vaguely remember hearing it. First fell in love with it on a 90's cd in middle school. Still love it.
These guys and Hootie and the Blowfish and Counting Crows were awesome back in the day.
I love train they are the best Sweet Virginia.
I haven't warmed up to their other tunes yet but I love this song. who ever threw in the "sit at home & rip on the president" I love you. lolz
Listen to their self titled debut album. It's like folk, rock, blues, and country combined.
Listen to their self titled debut album. This song is the first track. It's like folk, classic rock, blues, and country combined.
I just learned there was a video for this song today. Such a great song
This is the only music I heard while camping
Love this song never gets old I'm 46
Love this song...it never gets old...miss hearing Train on the radio...taught my kids all their songs...one of the best times in my life!
He said "she thinks I'm Beautiful"
🙋🏾♀️Most definitely 😋
Train y'all God Bless them and their Families ❤️
Its July 2021... my Day Off, Saturday, listening to this .
Fabulous song. Brings me back to my childhood days back in Canada. Sending good vibes from Berlin.
They have always had the heart and soul best songs 💖🤗💜
