[Denyernator]

Typewriter brought me here haha.

[bfnputz]

Meredith Salenger = Ridiculously HOtt

[fmafan43]

I love the part where he looks in the fridge and finds all that weird stuff.

[bfnputz]

@fmafan43 Yeah: Milk, eggs, asparagus, artichoke, and a take-out box. Pretty Weird I must admit.

[Lakin24]

[ryoukidn]

Brilliant! the song keeps building up intensity, and the lyrics are amazing!

[SuperPissflaps]

[zarubaconst]

Is it me or is he singing a song that counters one of his first songs "mr jones"

Mr. Jones = Wants to be Famous

Mrs Potters Lullaby = Sick of being Famous

thats just my take on it. love the crows and both those songs!

[rockchick80s]

This is my sister's signature tune lol. She was Pist and fell asleep on the sofa, she left the CD on Repeat track and she woke up with one of her neighbours banging on the door Ha Ha. Like she said some people dont know good music when they hear it.

[1134BlackLabel]

Did she wake up in "mid afternoon" LOL.

[rockchick80s]

No - I think it was 5.00am in the morning - and she had a Banging Headache LOL

[mikkosuave11]

[Dukabor]

seeing them a week from tonight!!!...with my very excited 14 year old daughter!...it will be her 4th time...my 6th

[Lakin24]

I saw them a month ago and they were absolutely fantastic as always! It was my 5th show... and my 5 & 7 year old daughters are begging me to go to the next one. :D

[Dukabor]

Saw them last night and they were awesome! The theater (the Wellmont in Montclair NJ) was small, intimate and the setlist was great!

[Lamenuts]

This song is awesome.

[mikedrummey]

these are his best lyrics

[bfnputz]

Famous people in this video - The girl from the Food Network with the 400 teeth and cleavage and the girl from Dream a Little Dream (part 1). Wonder where the two Coreys are?

[kemperinsurance]

the girl with the teeth is Giada DeLaurentis.

[johnmayerfan1989]

"I dream I never know anyone at the party and I'm always the host...If dreams are like movies, then memories are films about ghosts."

Adam is amazing. Plain and simple.

[Lakin24]

I definitely agree!

[panicqueen373737]

omg i absolutely love this song!!!

[shakespearesdead]

wow...this song is just....wow

im praying they play it when i see them

[AprilllandGabbby]

rumor has it the part why dont you climb down off that movie screen is about courtney cox or jen anniston both exes

[Lakin24]

The song is actually referring to Monica Potter, who starred opposite Robin Williams in Patch Adams.

[panicqueen373737]

jw, where did you find that out?

[Lakin24]

It was discussed at length on the Counting Crows fan club forums and was confirmed by Adam. :)

[xelfos]

brilliant lyrics... really amazing

[jeremyput]

If youve never stared off into the distance then your life is a shame. Brilliant.

[Durbsgirl72]

Awesome!!!!!!

[tangieoh]

Hey Sir. Adam

Won't you talk to me?

This is one artist that I would love to meet in person.

This song is awesome!

[golfgal963]

I love this song I can't get enough of it! It is so beautiful if you listen to the lyrics... "And the price of a memory is the memory of the sorrow it brings" amazing!

[Dukabor]

"there's a piece of Maria...in every song I sing"...fucking brilliant...there's a piece of Rose Marie in every song I sing...why can't I just write that simple?..

[facundofenix]

EL MEJOR TEMA DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS.

its true this is the best song ever :)

[multicolouredlady]

My all time favorite crows song and believe me..with me its hard to pick just one!

[Krystyny99]

the look in his eyes is always kinda sad, isn´t it?

[OperaOfViolence]

One of the greatest songs ever made. Brilliant lyrics and vocals by Adam Duritz. Amazing music by the Counting Crows as a whole.

[uvanity]

I couldn't agree more!!!

Steve-lyricist

[jmm1714]

great song

[rlegear19]

i just discovered this song and i love it. it is a good day when you find a song that you can enjoy forever.

[NickR03]

this song is so good. I can't even guess of how many times I've listened to it.

[deepspaceinvaders]

@NickR03 agree

[rockchick80s]

Absolutely love this song - my sister was drunk one weekend and fell asleep with this track on replay - (didn't make her very popular with her neighbours) FAB song!

[tseuc]

this is probably my favorite song (or holiday in spain)

very poetic

[prall50]

classi video--sad song cause it brings up memories of good times left in the past.

[alfalfaspout]

I have been a Crows fan for years and I think this is possibly the best song they ever did.

[Albinnaab]

Best song of all times <3

"The price of a memory, is the memory of the sorrow it brings"

[1972wfh]

Yeah...at 5:05. Fan/friend?

[Gorosaurus]

Is.. is that Giada DeLaurentis at 5:05??

[leonardosmythe]

this was so great, a follow up to around here.

some sort of closure.

[Viktorbryant]

I think this is my all time favorite song. I listen to it every time I get drunk, and I freak out like a school girl.

[rawandpeace]

absolutely awesome song.

[BillBuchananFtw]

This song stopped me from losing my mind.

[MarieMelancolie]

'Hey, I bleed as well as anyone, I just need someone to help me sleep'

[hellenhellen22]

although i think this song drags on a little too long, i still love it. and this video shows a more child like ,boyish side of Adam, which is rarely seen. even though the song is actually quite sad, he looks like he is having fun. love this video , a whole new side of Ad.

[pimpincracka1226]

this is a really good song it could become my favorite along with murder of one and round here if i listen to it more

[zuttorizzo]

Although I don't know a lot of their music, but I love this song and this is the first time I have seen the video! I love the music and then those crazy lyrics like the "last one out of the circus has to lock up everything or the elephants will get out and forget to remember what you said."

There is a lot going on with these lyrics! Great song, and I don't need to know what it is all about.

[gertjantromp]

nina loves this song and she's art as the beauty of this song

[AgentSmith]

Is that the actress Meredith Salenger(Lake Placid) in this music video?

[Jay9928]

Great song ! I heard it on Sirius Spectrum Ch. 18, and said holy shit, this is cool.... went and downloaded it.

[DanielMuu]

great video

[croote]

i love this song, the video is a bit bad though but the song is brilliant, i love counting crows!

[mom8888]

what is this song about?

[bostoncathy]

Mrs. Potters Lullaby

"I had been to a movie and had a fantasy of falling in love with someone on screen. And I thought about how ridiculous that was, that your life can be so tied up with these people who dont really exist." Duritz proves unusually coy about who the real Mrs Potter might be although rumours say Monica Potter who played the wife of Robin Williams in Patch Adams.

Check out annabegins dot com - Top of the page, it'll say "The Meanings" .. Enjoy! :)

[Lakin24]

Me! I do! ;)

[lonestarfriend]

Who else thinks Adam is hot?

[ilxaed]

you can see a million miles tonight, but you can't get very far!

[chyna4233]
