  • She.is 17 now

  • exact opposite of bee girl!

  • How old is Nico now?

  • FUCKING AMAZING!!! She sounds just like Shannon.... there is NOBODY who could have done such justice!

  • The crowd singing it ruined it.

  • Poor Nico Blue... Had to life her whole life without a daddy... Yesterday I watched a movie about Shannon's life,. I cried at the part when he died. I love you Shannon Hoon!!!!

  • This song always made me cry, this video makes me weep. I'll always wonder what Blind Melon could have been if Shannon hadn't died. I totally understand why the band called it quits. How could you go on as a band after something that sad? It was nice to see Nico step up there in her daddy's place, I'm sure she'll always wonder what it would have been like to have known him but all she'll ever need to do is look in the mirror and there he'll be staring back at her I'm sure with a smile.

  • fuck yea man i like .................

  • This is absolutely Epic.

  • This is a great way to pay tribute to a great singer! His daughter rocks for being able to do this onstage in front of so many adoring fans like her daddy! Shannon Hoon lives on!

    

  • Shannon is the fucking man. Don't even attempt to rip on him or any of his family you arrogant low life peace of shits..

  • This is so cool, shannon will never die people, greetings from Bogota - Colombia

  • Too bad you can barely hear him. But it probably helped with his nerves.

  • @Pusfan that is a girl you fucking idiot.

  • Great stuff.. Very emotional. Fuck Heroin.

  • I cried In class... Right in the Middle Of english, But all of em can Stfu Cause Nico Blue You Just sang For your daddy, He'd BE REAL pROUD OF YOU :)

  • shit im crying this is beautiful! TuT

  • Very powerful stuff. What a crazy vibe this must have been in this moment and time. Lucky folks.

  • Nico, your dad was a magnificent artist! His voice carried away the feelings of millions of people of our generation. We are eternally thankful to him for having poured so much of his soul into these amazing songs. All the best to you! :)

  • I look forward to seeing Nico with a fantastic musical/singing career.

  • I am a grown man, and I am about to start crying.........Awesome performance so touching and emotional!

  • R.I.P. Shannon..!!!! Nico, you're did would be amazingly proud of you girl..!!!

  • the apple fell far from the tree...

  • the 10 people who dont like this video dont have souls!!!!

  • Thank you, Nico, for this, and thank you for the contribution your Dad made to my hard times, and my misunderstanding of true music appreciation before hearing their work. I feel his talent was far and above many then, and even more now. His voice guided a decade, and that decade included me. Thank you, thanks Shannon.

  • please dont tell me im stupid or anything. this is a serious question. in she his sister or how is she related?

  • @landon501996 the girl who is singing is his daughter

  • @landon501996 his daughter

  • Holy crap. Shouldn't this punk have at least SOME talent before he tries to sing?  He couldn't carry a tune in a bucket, this kid. Maybe he should go snort a line off his dad's headstone.

  • @Pinckney12 you know what your a DICK

  • @KCOBAINZ67 You misspelled you're.

    Dick.

    This kid couldn't suck harder if he had a speech disorder.

  • @Pinckney12 bet you wouldn't have the sac to say that to him face to face. fuckin' loser.

  • @Pinckney12 nico is a girl you fucking idiot.

  • oops TYPO i ment his daughter LOL

  • THANK GOD he left us a spawn of the greatest person/singer in the world HIS SON NICO!!! shannon LIVES

  • crowd was lovin that shit

  • Awesomeeeee

  • Wow... those top comments are harsh, please thumb down. Thanks, Mngmt

  • This kid is an adorable angel!!! i never saw this one before, makes me cry. i'd like to see someone try to cut this kid or the video down in MY presense..i'd break that Nose off its face...see stuckup hairy butt holes got no balls to say something so shitty to someone's face... I thank the band for having him perform for his dad.

  • The guys look so proud of her. I hope no, I know, Shannon is watching.

  • If this doesn't make your eyes water...you are not a true Melon fan!

  • @humn241 Isn't that the truth. What a great song, a great person in Shannon Hoon, and a cool way to perform Change.

  • @humn241 instantly started tearing up. then i cried.

  • @chasemonday

    trust me you are NOT the only one

  • Comment removed

  • canada still loves melon especially the boys in hamilton Ontario. good job Nico

  • Awww. Nico and my 15 year old sister go to school together and are buddies. I wonder if she's seen this :)

  • @fbmandy55 Are they still in Lafayette? I was living in West Lafayette until '09 and would drive past the Dayton exit out south everyday on my way to and from work. I could never bring myself to stop to visit Shannon's grave. I guess part of me still doesn't want to believe that he's really gone. I may take a day and drive over from Anderson to pay my respects. I might just sit on the ground for a few hours and listen to every album. Just to reflect.

  • Awww. Nico and my 15 year old sister go to school together and are buddies. I wonder if she's seen this :)

  • thank you for uploading this!! also for deleting whatever worthless comments that happened above me!

  • Oh man...way to make me get all teary and emotional!!! Great job Nico! Your Dad was then and is now certainly smiling down on you. Shannon is a legend and his memory should forever be treated as such. Carry on, Nico....

  • Singing a song of his despair, hmm. I'd pick a different tune; but cool either way.

  • really fucking cool as shit. rip shannon

  • amazing video!!! thanks for sharing :)

  • @SuperNoobTroll there is no place for negativity on this forum. You are now blocked from leaving further worthless comments.

  • @peanutsinapile .....right on!

  • @SuperNoobTroll fuck u...fuck your dirty mouth... I'm from indonesia...i'm proud for what nico did...

  • @SuperNoobTroll eat shit troll

  • @SuperNoobTroll why would you waste your time saying such a thing? if you love Shannon, then love his family.

  • @SuperNoobTroll yes, much better to be a talentless troll that lobs anonymous attacks from the sideline instead of contributing something of value yourself. Tool. Way to go Nico, your dad touched millions and his music will continue to do so for decades.

  • That brought tears to my eyes! I know Shannon was smiling down on Nico during that performance!

  • Man i feel so old watching this... Hoon´s baby? wow... and this video was recorded like 4 years ago... how i miss you 90´s, I miss you Mr. Hoon and Mr Cobain.

  • Blind Melon was a religion for me and my many vices for many years..I remember driving from God knows where with Shannon's words relating to the world I was living. This video actually made me smile that real kind of smile. Thank You and I really hope to see more Nico

  • i'm sorry you lost your dad-he was awesome. i lost my dad at 6 years old and he was one of kind too. Wish i could have spent more time with him. We shall in the end ! Love you guys man !

  • Very nice. You did your father proud.

  • that made me cry. I miss Shannon but he is smiling down on his family and friends.

  • R.I.P SHANNON HOON

  • Shit...Im crying too...What a wonderful audience. RIP Shannon

  • vigil sept 24 2011 come one come all

  • Oh My God... Im crying...

  • so i grew up in lafayette, indiana and was a neighbor of shannon’s mom...i remember seeing him and his wife with little nico at...yes...a house on fire in our neighborhood that was hit by lightening...it was interesting in the sense that shannon was there with his wife and little nico – she was sooooo tiny – taking pictures of the house...will never forget that moment.

  • yeah if u listen and its hard i heard a little shannon there... Well said Travis i didnt like the idea of him doin this but i seen this video and wen and seen them in Little Rock and man shes right he does shannon justice not the same of course but it is what it is....

  • that was amazing she looks jus like her dad

  • Watch..`Movies.''Online''"Here­,`.

    WWW.WATCHALLMOVIES.TK

    Simply"..Copy",.&''"Paste,.,

  • how old is she?

  • i actually think she did a good job. her voice was kinda overwhelmed by the audience. but thats just out of love and respect for her and the family and friends. i still tear up when i listen to this :)

  • Gah, now I'm crying.

  • shut uppp and let the kid sing!!

  • She looks like her father!

    <3

  • Nico... your dad you'd be proud of you, Good job on the song... You could screw it all up, and it wouldn't matter, cause your dad wrote that! R.I.P. Shannon...

  • Man! Just the fact that she didn't break down while singing it is amazing to me! Don't think I could pull that off. Be proud of yourself honey, your dad is... ;)

  • Had to cry!

  • That's beauty right there.

  • And then they'll paint it!

  • <3

  • enough to make grown man cry

  • Fair play!

    Bless her for doing this and rocking it big time. I lost my dad and this can't of been easy but the reception she got was fantastic!must have brought her closer to her pops.

  • @AntiFaithNY That would be the best band ever lol.

  • this  is beautiful. this is what music is all about. it's what you leave behind. God bless Nico's soul. she is a beautiful soul.

  • Tears are coming down from my soul...

  • she sounds amazing for a 12 yr old at the time

  • The m2m2u2u2 guy is fucking retarded. I love how you went off the deep end for someone saying what we're all thinking. Nico got up there to sing one of her father's songs. She was 18weeks old when Shannon died. The one way she'll ever know her father is through his music. The LEAST the audience could have done would have been to shut the fuck up once she started singing.

  • Absolutely beautiful. Thanks so much for posting this man. Every time I listen to this it makes me feel sad. I wish I could have seen Blind Melon live. RIP Shannon.

  • This is really really awesome, but very sad... kind of makin me thirsty

  • as long as his music lives,shannon will never die..........love you dude,you still help me to weather the dark storms.......R.I.P

  • shannon even tho he was a fucked up happy guy the music he created was just the best r.i.p bro

  • she can't sing as well as shannon

  • i was reading the comments and i looked up and saw nico and swear i saw shannon..... weird

  • Gives me the chills, RIP!

  • you cant please someone to sing the song coz their carried awayby emotion.RIP shannon hoon

  • I saw this concert at The Vogue in Indianapolis. It was truly spine-tingling in the room!

  • I saw this concert at The Vogue in Indianapolis. It was truly spine-tingling in the room! Shannon's mother also came out on stage.

  • Uh...I'm going to have to turn this off cuz I'm going to cry. And, I don't know how to explain that to my girlfriend when she finds me crying in the room on a Sunday morning.

  • :(  this is really touching.

  • good dammed im gonna cry..T__T

    shannonn!!

  • @AntiFaithNY

    yes

  • @BlackSabbathory he was there man. in all those faces.

  • @11335561 Did he bring his gear?

  • People bitching about the crowd are stupid. It's cool that they were into it, and I'm sure Nico felt at ease because they were singing along too. 

  • Too bad Shannon couldn't be there himself.

  • @AntiFaithNY Don't forget Sean Lennon :P

  • This is really cool.

  • Buenísimo, este tema me encanta y ahora al escucharlo por el hijo de Shanoon me emocionó mucho...un gran abrazo desde CHILE.

  • @lesterlukis666

    Es hija, se llama Nico Blue.

  • @AntiFaithNY that would be very amazing but big shoes to fill, biut who knows anything is possible :)

    bronx

  • i just cried =(

  • Freaking great! This band always make me feel good. How bout if Nico sticks with it and assumes her dad's role. Only if she really wants to, of course. But how beautiful that would be to the music, the band and Shannon. And I loved how the crowd helped her every step of the way.

  • This makes me smile and cry alil bit at the same time (=

    Although i do wish everyone would just shut the fuck up and let her sing.

  • lovely :)

  • this is abs amazing. you can just hear the love you can feel it gives me chills to the bones. i can only imagine how shannon felt looking down on all this.

  • my dad died of cancer 1 year ago and this was played at the funeral I'm now 14 and this song changed my life and continues to this very day R I P dad and Shannon hoon and god bless you niko I am sure he's amazingly proud of you p.s you have a good voice

  • @loda205 much love...u seem like a kid that gets it! peace

  • @AntiFaithNY that sounds awesome!!!

  • @AntiFaithNY nico goes to my school

  • How is it disrespect for everyone in the audience to be singing her fathers song and celebrating his life and work?? Its a tribute to one of the most amazing singers ever

  • this is beautiful! wish i was there :( R.I.P "Shaman" Hoon.

  • @bigsurhiker mind your manners sir. if you were there you would have been singing too.

  • @peanutsinapile I agree. How could yo NOT. This is a tribute man! Sing it loud. Show your love. Shut up? Would Shannon? He would sing loud and with an angelic voice just like he did. All we can do now is appreciate and remember. Forever!

  • @peanutsinapile it was rude of him to sayit like that but hes kindve right...

  • @peanutsinapile Couldn't agree more. Just sittin here in my house I am singing it...Doubt that would change had I been there.

  • @bigsurhiker fuck you u fucking homo that the best thing u fucking moron i want to disrespect u i wish i could punch u through the computer fuck you u faggot

  • @me2me2u2u2 You're funny, that's a lot of "fucks" in one sentence. Well, you're gonna have to find some other way to disrespect me, cause I'm not a "faggot", and punching me through the computer? Really? Trust me, you couldn't kick my ass on your best day. You shouldn't be so angry big guy, it will get you in trouble.

  • @bigsurhiker FUCK U JEALOUS ASS

  • @bigsurhiker I am happy to see nico and there is no blind melon without Mr Hoon.

  • @bigsurhiker - simply great!!

  • @bigsurhiker I think this was more about the experience, the love coming from the crowd, that was really the best part of this and Shannon woudl have been proud, the other technicalities just are not relavent here, He has a whole career in front of him :)

    bronx.

  • @bigsurhiker totally agree with peanuts. What they did was show the love that they had for Nico, for Shannon, and for the music.

    I hope, bigsurhiker, that I never in my life am known as anything but a drunk, stoned, dirty, disrespectful hippy if that means I never end up living like a stick in the mud like you!

  • @bigsurhiker eag I'm gonna agree, if you were there you would have felt the vibe. And you would have been singing too. It was a party, a celebration. Not disrespectful to anyone, at all.

  • @bigsurhiker your comment lets me know that you know nothing about Shannon, Niko or Blind Melon fans !! IMHO the fans there paid great respect to Niko and Shannon and did it in a way i'm sure Shannon would have been proud

  • @bigsurhiker theres a time and place for that, know where your coming from though

  • @bigsurhiker I actually agree with you, for the most part.

  • holy freacking cow, man!! that kid can sing!! wow!! like father like daughter, i guess. man!! i got some songs i aint good enuf to record, but i bet this chica'd make 'em FANTASTICC!

  • Nico is Awesome!!! You can hear from the crowd, everyone loves her! Shannon would be so proud!

  • BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!

  • The Shannon Hoon Blood lives on..

  • define: family

  • what a beautiful tribute to her father he would of been so proud

  • well why did you high tail it and leave if you were such a great fan. anyways great performance Nico, this was all about you.

  • who the fuck dislike this video !

  • It takes a lot for me to cry, I've seen so much other stuff that didn't even affect me but there is something touching and beautiful about this.

  • can anyone tell me where/when this was?

  • @wolfatnight Double Door, Chicago 10/16/2007

  • @peanutsinapile This was an amazing night... watching this clip again sends chills up my spine. Great show.. Shannon's Galaxie was parked out front of the venue

  • beautiful

  • OMGOMG this is so awesome!!!! i can't believe she's singing this!!! i luv her.....we love you Nico!!!! I wish i could hear her voice more....

  • I so sorry this video makes me cry...I love you forever R.I.P Shannon Hoon...

  • @aliscanner you're emo

  • @aliscanner - me too!!

  • makes me cry too, RIP Shannon Hoon!!

  • Shannon gave me a lot but took my heart with him (and so many) all the same, I miss you strange brother of crazy souls, you are and will always be in the yellow house that time in locks now in memory. Be free like you needed and rest in that old wreck of a ford like then, in lakes dried by hotter days, in denim mothers wouldn't lauder and fits of blistering laughter x Rooh

  • Very cool video! Thanks for sharing.

  • You can almost see the smile on Shannon's face as he is watching down on this moment...

  • i wish i could actually hear her over the crazy fucking awesome

  • kick ass nico! my little girl's dad died also,in a car wreck listening to this very song just as the mandolins come in in the middle of it. this means a lot to us and i know way more to u. i'm sorry babe. he did not want to leave u. just a lot to handle. try to forgive him.

  • this video makes me cry. i broke down before the song even started. SaveToComputer is right. if shannon was here hed be incredibly proud of her.

  • I live in Indiana where Shannon's Mom and other fans have a hoon fest every year in October. I believe his daughter is in highschool

  • I first heard them when I saw a no rain video when I was 6 years old and theyve been my favorite ever since! This is awesome to see her relating to her dad like that. Also, this song has my favorite quote ever..which im getting tattooed on my forearm "I know we cant all stay here forever, so I wanna write my words on the face of today" Fuckin love it, love them and you go Nico!!♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • @Peaveydude93 That's a girl, bud.

  • @AntiFaithNY:

    While that MIGHT be cool (in a vicarious, cult of personality sort of way), none of them have ever done anything to merit it. Talented parents ≠ talented kids.

  • @TheInertiaCreep

    fuck off dick

  • Best video on youtube....shit, period! Hands down.

  • I wish the crowd would shut the fuck up so I can here her sing!

  • Even haters cannot hate this video. It made me cry. R.I.P. Shannon Hoon. Live on Nico Blue Hoon
