Anyone know where the video is for this song with Shannon standing in front of a camera? They used a clip of it on Behind the Music. It sounds like he's playing it a bit more aggressive...
We need more musicians like Shannon Hoon, a true musical genius. Someone with that immense talent could help get the music of today out of the slump its in now.
@IWantToTasteDirtyx3 Id Basically Give My LIFE to have him back. But I dont think Shannon wouldnt allow that.... I dont think he would let some 14 year old girl give up her life so he could have another chance at life. lolz
@IWantToTasteDirtyx3 lol shannon wouldnt do it because he would consider it selfish for someone to lose their life for him to get back alive. and Shannon was clearly not a selfish person. todays music is filled with crap nd lies and is fake. My cousin thinks blind melon sucks yet again he is a lil wayne fan so that explains why he is so deaf. lol
Shannon had talent & so many things going 4 him that I will NEVER have. My profession in life is going to be a Mortician/wife/mother. It wasnt faith that brought Shannon H 2 the world or his talent/singing that made him standout. It was meant to be. Being Shannon H wasnt a accident.I believe before he was born that he was going 2 touch MILLIONS of hearts through his voice But Shannon has a daughter that he needs to be with. Ive had a great Dad all my life. Every girl needs a Dad. ....Etc...
I would trade my life in return for Shannons life because Nico needs her daddy & he knows we miss his music .I know he misses playing. Point blank. Im poor. since Im poor,live in West Virginia, 'll never get a real job or become rich but Im going to college but with my boyfriends mom is paying for my mortician school, I live in a crummy house. And I'm pretty sure I wouldnt miss it. But Shannon, my idol,the person who makes me happy when I'm sad deserves something he doesnt have. A life...(Etc)
@IWantToTasteDirtyx3 I knew Shannon before he left IN. We weren't close, just somewhere between friends and acquaintances.
I am here to tell you,Shannon was about enjoying life 101%, and at any nearly any cost.Being down on yourself isn't an option he would be happy with, he would find a way to tun it into something fun no matter what.Unfortunately,dope was his method many times.
Learn from his life and his words, he would tell you himself if he could: Don't fall in the same trap that he did.
...(Continued).. with his daughter & family. Who would continue putting smiles on peoples faces with his music . I would honestly be a different without Shannons music without his message of love/wisdom/words His music gave me hope when I gave up on ever having hope.I owe him alot. I would give up my own 23 years on this earth just to hear his voice inspire & touch soo many hearts once again. Forever & Ever. I love you, Shannon<3 You'll never die. You live through your fans. Miss you! :)
@IWantToTasteDirtyx3 I also want to add that Shannon wasn't any different that the rest of us outside of the fact that he wasn't afraid.
How many people would hop a bus for CA with nothing in order to pursue their dream?Risk it all for vision?
You are young,no kids,now is the time,don't be afraid. There is greatness in us all;chase that dream while you still have time.Greatness would never be realized in this world if those few weren't willing to chase those dreams we all think are unobtainable
so simple and simply beautiful! I doubt anyone would disagree with me. & Goddamn, his voice sounds like a million angels singing :) And if anyone disagrees with me on that as well I will gladly kick you in the fucking teeth. Miss & Love you. My gorgeous,Shannon<3
I still try sometimes to imagine the person that he would have become over time, and the music that he would have been able to make. I miss Shannon Hoon more than the other dead rock musicians.
I do the same thing... and I come up with more amazing music & a more beautiful, Shannon. With his act cleaned up, of course. But... thats a perfect dream. Sadly... reality isn't perfect. Shannon had flaws, but in my eyes & heart... he was simply perfect. :) Goddamn.... I miss him & his art <3
@litatyas It seems as though everybody dies... and sad as it may be, it's okay too (3:01-3:48). Shannon left us with wondrous treasures which in turn, make him live on forever.
I wanna know how to play this. Is the tuning different than the original? Ahh I'm clueless. Sound like he may have changed the E minor into an E major? Someone please offer assistance.
We sang this beautiful song as his Vigil this year. (On his grave, where he was burried)
I demand you all go to next years memorial/vigil. you wont regret it, and you wont forgot how much fun you had. It's a joyous event in his honor,, everyone laughs, everyone is so nice & and his mother "Nel" was the sweetest person I've ever had to pleasure. She talked to me for a while, telling ME thanks for coming, * I'm like no! hun, THANK YOU! She even asked me to put her candles on Shans gave. :) ILY<3
@BadBeenrey What is she like? Does she have a personality like her dad's? I saw her once in a video where she sang with the reformed blind melon with Travis. She was 13 or something at the time, I don't know how old she is now, but she seemed like some one I could relate to. You don't have to answer if you don't want to. I'm just genunially curious. People say I like Blind Melon and what not to much, but I don't think a person can love them enough.
hey jjerkwad...lol...not often I get to call somebody jjerkwad lol...tis'that true? About Tim playin the guitar? Where do ya get your info...Nel had thought it was Shannon... that would be very cool however ;}
this was recorded in 94' and that isn't shannon playing guitar or the harmonica, it's his half brother Tim Forkeottis (R.I.P.) this song is called something in the pantry. :)
this is the best song ever created. I am and will always be a huge Shannon Hoon fan. They just don't make them like they used to anymore. RIP Shannon, you are missed!
tabs are hard to come by, but if you really can't find them I am willing to tab it out for you, This is actually one of my favorite songs to play (the album version). I really don't know this version, although it is not that different. Just a little different time changes. Let me know.
I still really cant get the 1st verse except for the second line. the 2nd verse is the same as the original, the added third verse im pretty sure i know it. the last half i got, that first verse is killin me tho
If I was to smile and held out my hand And opened it now would you not understand Glasses so thick, eyesight so weak I reflect upon the moment It makes my heart begin to beat After that everythings free... Is it just the thoughts in my head That maybe we'd be better off If we took it off and painted it red I'll never smile the way that I did today Maybe its the palms of my hands Swearing that I will believe Everything is gonna be okay
I dunno if that's Timmy or not...tho he played too....sweet recording tho....
