Can we all just admit how great 90s rock was there really is nothing like it anymore
it sure was i kick myself i did not appreciate it more best era of music the 90s
Yep..
It was, and we blinked.
Time flies by so quickly😮
Fuckin ay, I’m an old man now (42 yo) and I play this for peoplor in their 20’s and it blows their minds. Still blows mine too.
Man the 90's what a decade
Probably the best one all over all....
@@ibelieveinsomething3895 thats a bold statement, for me its the 80s
@@jimcunningham61 Yes indeed. I just meant variety wise and new styles. Every generations had their own favorites decades😀 anything defore year 2000 was the best I think. Now it's garbage.
@@ibelieveinsomething3895 so true , for me the 80s had so many artist I love
Rightttt
Andre Agassi was always my favourite 90's frontman
This comment wins
😂😂😂
They both had a great 90’s😂
@Jared Wineera the early 90s Agassi hair was fire, complete with the thick chest hair too. What a hairy man! LOL
@@andrewives5001 game, set and match 😋
Throwing Copper is an absolutely phenomenal album.
Agreed
Yeah man. First 3 albums were pretty solid. Saw them a few times in the 90s and they brought it every time.
Damn right.
I remember when I was 11 and did some chores, got paid and the first 2 Albums I bought were Throwing Copper and Counting Crows August and Everything After. I must’ve listened to both a few hundred times. I then thought all CDs would be this great… turns out I probably bought the 2 best albums of the 90s on my first purchase
@@LegolasD For sure, great music really stands the test of time. Of all the great songs on Throwing Copper, Pillars of Davidson will always be my favorite.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written
Hell yeah
Agreed
Gross over-statement
Roe Vs Wade. 😂
@@mikewhite4560that's not what the song is about. It's about life and death under the same roof of the hospital.
Just imagine, the year is 1999. You're at just another concert "Woodstock" with all your buddies. Just cashed a bowl of stank grass from a Dr. Pepper can. Only worry is school starts back in a few months and trying to remember the directions to get back home. You can't look it up on any cellphones because noone even thought that would be a thing. You and your friends drive back after a kickass time of live music, love, and comradery. To some that was the last time yall hung out together, or even spoke to one another. Its 2021 Next thing you know, half of those friends are not living anymore, everything is ran by media and internet, Woodstock no longer exists and since the world is in a pandemic...live music is on a standstill.
i was there as a 12 year old with my 16 yr old sister and her friends. i grew up that weekend. ill never forget woodstock 99
I stared work as an over the road trucker in January of 2000, and at that time only about 25% of long haul drivers had cell phones, we used to laugh at those idiots who payed $200+ a month for a mobile phone, we saw no purpose in it. I had an 800 number tied to my home phone, I could call and talk to my wife for 10 cents a minute. How times have changed...now, if we leave or phone at home, we turn around and go get it.
Made me cry a little man shut up haha. Loves
Man that is depressing. Lol
Life is pretty garbage now
When the crowd sings it's like hes catching all of there energy and pushing it through the microphone. True talent
Balam... what an absolutely true and real comment. You're awesome for that!!!
@@myname8627 thanks man I'm a long time guitar player I've felt it firsthand it IS so magical. Thanks for commenting you made my day
The guitarist fucked it
@@jamesclark7829 lol that e to bar chord switch used to get me every time, but he is a "pro" lol still an amazing moment
@@balamtheknowledge9578 he is playing only bar chords..no e chord in this song. F C G
As an old guy (59) this sends chills every time I hear it. Not just great musically but the lyrics are so poignant. It sends a tear to my eye every time. Not many songs give you a visual as we listen. This one does. Expressing life’s tragedies. Not too bad for a bunch of punk ass kids. Just kidding. Love Live.
@Bobcaygeon very well stated. I saw them live in August 2019 in an intimate venue in Wash DC. A place called The 930 Club. Front row. Awesome band. Be well man…
@@LordStanley94 I love the 9:30 club! I'm from Baltimore but I drive down to DC for shows all the time
We have rap now.!, 😁
your not old my friend
So now you are 60. Not old for sure. Timeless song.
You know it's a banger when the lead singer is shirtless.
But seriously this is a formative song for me. I know it was written by dudes but as a girl, teen, woman, mother, wife....it speaks to me.
Thanks guys. We are all human. We are all in this together.
Some.of the SHOULD put a shirt on. Nobody wants to see their gut.
Well, it is about one woman giving birth and another woman dying.
Thank you Hailey your comment means a lot to me. Be blessed.
and there's nothing wrong with that. as a matter of fact, that is something to be celebrated 🙏❤️
Yes, written by dudes, but written for women, the only ones who can give life. Mother Nature and human motherhood, the spiritual and physical.
-40 year old patiently awaiting the birth of his first child, 12/25/2023.
God bless you all.
All life is precious.
Proof that 90's was the last great decade of music. Man, how I loved Live and this song
No cell phones, just people enjoying the moment being alive in the greatest decade humanity will ever see.
The greatest time is with Jesus. Don't reject salvation and God's eternal heaven.
I heard that Wolverich 😅
Purely enjoying a festival...no cell phones
Everything about life was so much better back then. Back when gas was 99 cents a gallon
People forget that all changed in 2001
Gas companies started making trillions in profits and the prices never went back down
Before 2001 we were in the golden age
Concert didnt end well tho, lol
You got it 100% the 90s is the best ever
I definitely took the 90's for granted..I'd give anything to return to that time and place
Yes, we’re the last generation that knows what real life and living actually was 😔
Same....surfing, no mortgage, no kids.....just living
So did I!!!! Who would have thought we were living during the best times!!!
We all took the 90 's for granted
I don't think this has anything to do specifically with the 90s, I think this is about you not aging well and being very conscious of it.
Goosebumps. Real voices.. no auto tune shtt
And the lyrics actually meaning something, it's deep thoughts behind
I am 50 years old and I love this song the same way I did when i was 21
Same ! And I’m 53 lol
It still makes me 😢
Live, Nirvana, Cranberries, Radiohead, Oasis, Alice and Chains, Alanis, Pearl Jam, No Doubt, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, The Smashing Pumpkins, Four Non Blondes, Mr Big, The Verve, Ugly Kid Joe, Aerosmith, there's just sooo many great bands in the 90's. It's unbelievable.
Well said homer30
Thanks for mentioning ugly kid joe
You forgot Creed !
yah great pal
Faith no more, hodoo gurus..
Born in 79, Live was on every party I was at esp this song, makes me emotional reading your comments.
2:42 the absolute joy on his face is the most beautiful thing
My brother used to play this with his band. He passed 4/14/20. I'm so glad to find these old videos to remind me of The Best Days of Our Lives (the 90s). Thanks for posting.
Love you Matt, forever & always, sis xoxo MCM 9/7/72 to infinity
I'm sorry for the loss of your brother I hope this song bring some comfort for you
@@WhatsCookingTime TY❤
my brother passed 5/20/20
@@ajlynch5235 I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you're doing ok.❤
Sorry for your loss bud ..love and strength to you and your family
The greatest time of all of our lives and none of us knew it. This has been one of my Dad's favorite songs my whole life, I remember hearing it a million times as a child. Learning it now on guitar as an adult and seeing the lyrics and what they mean brings a whole new meaning to it.
Dad is now happy that you know what he was trying to tell you through this song ...never underestimate a Dad's love for his children
Gosh. You hit the nail on the head. Greatest time of our lives but none of us knew it
he looked so damn happy while singing my heart tingles a little when i watch this
All the artists look back on this concert as a highlight in their career and you can tell by the performances they put on.
Haley mine too !!!
I remember when this song was just a pretty good song at the time. Now its better than anything we get anymore.
Something about this song man. When it was brand new and I first heard it , It moved me.. still does now .... can't explain it
I feel you on that
We dont always have to be able to explain luckily! I just know that i fed off of this song quite some times when things where dark!
I can
The build-up.
He was deffinitely tripping when he wrote this. For sure.
80's rock laid the foundation for the 90's!
This song carried me through one of my lowest points the passing of my son...I've always said it was meant for me every word every note.... I cry sad and happy tears but live/ed makes me be able to feel it his guitarist drummer base ect allow me to truly feel it
No one cares about your sob story
Live is real❤
im so sorry to hear of your son's passing. I hope you are able to celebrate his life through this song, knowing someday you will see him again!
One of the best performances of Live!! Ed K is so talented, his voice and energy...and that sweet smile.
It's like butter
I never took the time over the years to actually listen to your music, I know now... what I was missing!!💋🌹❤️💯👍🎯!!
I was in the crowd smiling and enjoying the moment...not a care in the world.
Live lived up to their name. One of the best crowd responses at Woodstock 99.😎🤘
Same. Was awesome. Had a blast
I was 10 and am jealous of y'all
Love
Something I will never forget….🥹
As a 38 yr old I gotta say.. very cool!!
Man I miss the 90s!
Me2😭😭
The 90's were the last great decade before tech took over. Getting to live through this era was badass
The peak of true Music
Agreed..90’s were like magic! Thinking back now especially… nostalgia is gone.. poor kids these days will never know that feeling we had.
No one has a cellphone up recording themselves! BEAUTIFUL!
Only because a phone that could take good video didn’t exist yet. The nokia flip phones took terrible photos in 1999 but most people had one. Never seen something sell so fast than cell phones in 1999. Everyone lined up around the block to get one when they were released in 1998
This decade will always have the best music that was ever made! Music that touched your soul to the very core!❤️❤️❤️
And your HOW OLD?
one of the Most underrated/underappreciated bands ever
I'm from the usa and saw Live, live in Norway. I was never the same!
Not a massive Live fan but their Unplugged performance is incredible. Them at their absolute peak, captured at the perfect moment. And their Drummer is a God damn beast. Check it out
Still my favorite song of all time. LIVE Lightning Crashes. The art, soul, and feeling in this song's lyrics, voice, and band are unparalleled.
🤔 yeah, I've had this song on a loop for the last 23yrs. I refuse to waste my time listening to anything else.
Her placenta falls to the floor? Lmfaoo
The band that saved my life
Beautiful, no smartphones, everyone living the moment
Finally someone who gets it. Its no smart phones not no cell phones. Most adults had a cell phone by 1999 they were all the rage. They just took terrible quality photos and videos
The 90's was the greatest time to live. I was young and in love. How I miss this part of my life.
90’s gave us so much great rock music!!
I was in my 20’s and so happy I embraced it back then.
If you think about it… 90’s rock, 90’s country, even 90’s pop and rap were all basically at a high point
The yr my sister lost 2 baby boys and she had the hardest time, I never thought that she would be able to get over it, and one day I don't know why but I felt like I should play her this song and I did so the next couple of yrs she was always listening to this song somewhere it gave her comfort. So thanks LIVE🩵🩵🖤🖤🩵🩵
On of the most underrated bands of the 90s....every Aussie had "Throwing Copper" on repeat on CD
Eating is underrated. Bad comment. They’re an excellent band n known for it. ✌️
Saying anyone it “underrated” has expired, it’s very overrated, you’re not hip!
My son is 30 years old, born in 93. He keeps saying , you guys had the best cars, best quality clothes, best music. 60’s 70’s 80’s , 90’s , the end.
I lived in the best generations of music!
That is true for sure, but you have to admit that it can't be done that much anymore. Crossover was the last runup of rock.
One of the most underrepresented bands in Germany. Great lyrics, great guitar sounds and a fantastic voice from the singer.
Rhythm, beats, notes, vocals, expression, energy, sunshine, freedom. Celebrate humanity.
I wish I could go back to the 90s. Rewind the world. I would appreciate it more. I took the 90s for granted at the time. I suppose that’s how it always goes. Whatever phase of life you’re in at the time one day you’ll look back on it with nostalgia and miss “the good old days”.
Thank your god you could live in that beautiful years, I'd do anything to live in these years, but I wasn't even born.
The 90s were my formative years. Wish I could have lived through them as a twenty something
Me also, love to rewind and go back to the 90's and appreciate life.
I always have to tell myself that someday today will be the good ol days. I have to or I would kill my self
@@gfersurvived6622 yess I totally know what you mean.
25 years ago...where did the years go? This was fantastic🎶🎸❤️! Love Ed...he had such commanding stage presence!
Ah, not a cellphone in sight, just fans experiencing one of the greatest eras of music the world will ever know!
What a masterpiece this song is, and what a performance. I was only 9 at the time lol, but I'd love to go back and experience it now
I was 19 in 1999. Oh dear God 😳 . I wouldn’t go back and do it any differently. It was a great time
I watched this video again, I am so moved every time !!!❤
The end of an era, the greatest era of music.. rock n roll.
No words absolutely love this song, it will always be a classic 💕
Older rock video are one of the few places left on this wild world of web that you can find almost entirely positive comments and energy. Long life music!
I can feel it comming back again. I can feel it
The confusion sets in before the doctor can even close the door lighting crashes and an old mother dies. Her intentions fall to the floor
Live brings me back to the best times of my life. The CD Mental Jewelry was on constant repeat in my dorm in 1995. They have so many great songs. 🎵
The fact that I typed in:
live lighting crashes live and chuckled my head then this thumbnail pops up of him smiling that charming smile ❤
Always liked Live but never watched any performances of them. I was born in 89 and wish I was a bit older to have really experienced this musical time more. Incredible!
My mom died of cancer when I was 12, and this song always makes me think of her. I miss you momma.
Favorite 90's band of all time! Still got several tracks on my phone & CD's on the shelf!
90's.. What a life.. Everything has meaning..
The 90s doesn't even seem like the same life anymore compared to today. Seems like a dream
True
True
True, what a shame
Live is a very under rated band. The debut album was their best by far.
Live is such a great but underestimated band.
Throwing Copper was a masterpiece and we had to try and do one song from it. Hope you will enjoy our take on it :
czcams.com/video/Bez5pTdoRaA/video.html
Your saying underrated and they never got any better. ??? You even said by far
They were amazing. I'm friends with Chad Gracey the drummer. Too bad they broke up and Ed is playing with a back up band until they reconcile. CT I'm told is gone for good. Patrick and Gracey aren't talking. All over a side business gone sour.
Sound guy should never have to pay for another beer his whole life. Great job, well captured 👏
No phones. They are just taking in the music, his voice. Fuck, I wanna go back.
Take me with you
Me too....
Same....so bad!
fuck u nailed it
Found the poverty wench that didn't have a cell phone in 1999 lololol
What I love about this video is there are no cell phones in the crowd recording the concert. Everyone is singing together and having a good time. I wanna go back to this time.
This. 💯
thats the biggest difference from nowadays, people lived in the moment, and felt every second of it
now people live in delayed time because they are glued to the phone or internet watching or reading about stuff that has already happened, and thus are not actually participating in it
You know that is a great point.The crowd is in the moment. How can you be in the moment when you are videoing something for later. Put down the cell and enjoy what is.
Because cell phones didn't exist, bruh.
@@rommulus the world is so suffocating and evil now the youth have no choice but to avoid it.
Why does music have the unique ability to remind me of the constant passage of time around me.
I remember driving through NSW at the exact time it rained and ALL the Roo's came into the road to drink. At midnight on a Christmas Eve/Day, the best day for to drive Fast through Australia. Listening to this.
OH how I love this Song soooo Much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
His voice resonates within my Heart and Soul ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awesome. Thank you
Singer looks so stoked! Feeling the vibes through his whole being. Song alwys sounds amazing. I miss the 90’s
I'm still rocking this jam in 2024!😁🤟
One of my all time favourite songs! Never fails to give me a good feeling 💜
The youth today has no idea the power of this song.
To me it means the end of the greatest era of music
(15)
Well, I beg to differ lol. I'm 15, wanna follow in there footsteps lol. I love this type of music, wanna make my own, going to make my own music
@@adriancee678 Do it!! You will run into naysayers who will try to discourage you. Some will say it is not practical etc. It is not easy, but then nothing worth having really is.
I never stuck with it after the band broke up and now 30 years later I am back at it. I am just doing covers of great songs like this one, but do plan to eventually record my own songs.
Nothing pisses me off more than adults telling a kid he can't do this or that. I KNOW you can, if you decide to, and I really hope you do. Learn a few things about the business as well as it can get pretty nasty if you don't watch out.
Music is the greatest element in the universe for creating and spreading joy. It can be head banging rock, it can be soft acoustic, it can be light and fun, or deep and meaningful. Learning to play guitar (I started on drums) is the single best thing I have ever done. Learning to sing decently has allowed me to connect to so many people.
Getting paid to play music never gets old! Even if it just a few dollars
Wishing you the best.
- Cheers
That's so true about the youths today
Surprisingly some actually a really into this music and understand it but I agree that is a good percentage who don't
It will never be like this again and that’s depressing. 90s and early 2000s felt like an alternate reality now. Can we just go back?! The music, movies, fashion, no smart phones.. Life was good.
This just gave me a phenomenal idea!!!
I going to replay this video over & over just so I remember it!!
Thanks Richard Patrick!!
Wish I was there now
Right? Fuck this pandemic i miss going to shows
I know I now realize how I took them for granted
I’m going to see off 2020 and welcome 2021 with this bang!
@@spentanu I’m right there with you!
1999.I was 26 years old at this time.
I listened to most of Woodstock 99 on the radio. Heh.
couldn’t afford cable at the time. I think it was PPV only anyway.
His voice is beautiful live
Watching this is making me cry…for the times that will never ever be like this again and for feeling so damn blessed that I got to experience some of it ❤
Another unique voice in rock . Beautiful song passionately written.
LIVE is still phenomenal! Saw them in 2018 opening for a VERY late Counting Crows at DTE in Michigan and they were the real stars that night! But man I miss college days and music in the 90s...
Saw them in Chicago right after they got back together ( 8th time of seeing them) . In a small club of about 500 people.....it was AWESOME!!!
That crowd singing the Corus 🤘 what a time it must of been 💯
They don’t make them like this anymore! ❤ so glad I was born when I was. I love all fans of this music!!
GOOSEBUMPS THE PUBLIC SINGING WHAT AN ATMOSPHERE, REAL IMPACT ON A GENERATION.
I remember watching this "live" on TV, it still gives chills!
Omg I forgot about Live. They were one of the best things about my teen years.
Im from 93 and i love this song ❤
I love the 90's such great music!! This is my late husband's favorite song, when he died unexpectedly I played it at his memorial had everyone in tears, it's really hard to listen to this song. It's incredible love Live!! 😊❤️🤘✌️🔥
I'm sorry. I hope you are well.
@@shagsmith3410 thank you for your kind words! 😊✌️
@@laurawatters914 least I could do. My wife and I celebrate 25 years in three weeks. I can't even fathom what you had to endure. I hope you are well.
@@shagsmith3410 Congratulations!! That is wonderful, I hope you two have many many more awesome years together!! We were together for 17years and I know we would been together forever. Stay safe, thank you again for the kind words 😊💓🤘✌️
@@laurawatters914 he is waiting for you. I know I will be waiting for my beautiful wife if I go before her. Please take peace in that.
This guys voice just floored me from the first time I ever heard it!
Great song!!! Love you guys!! LoveLightening Crashes,awesome!
40 years old... I love this song so much. It plays a lot on heart strings but it's just the start of my profile of good music.
As a kid i would play this song on full blast get on my drum set and play the drum part over and over until one day i mastered it and sing this im 35 now and i still do thank you 90z
YOU KNOW YOU ARE OLD WHEN YOU SAY... OH, THIS WAS ONLY 25 YEARS AGO AND YOU ARE RETIRED IN ANOTHER COUNTRY 😂😂😂😂 TRUE DAT!!!
Thank you Ed ! Great performance LIVE !
I understand , Can't stop playing it , it's fantastic, I'm 70 now , Very Powerfull, GOD bless your Mum X
Man the 90s was the best decade the music sure was something else incredible
I can feel it. Lightning crashes an old mother cry. It's the moment she has been waiting for. The angel open her ayes. Pale blue color eyes
Lets gooo back to 90s 😍
One of the few songs if not the only one that represents the spirit of Woodstock concert in 1999…
Saw this band years ago at Janus Landing, St. Pertersburg, Fl. What great show!
