[Kravitzlove50]

Kravitz I miss u everyday you were more than just my cat for 17 years. You added such beauty and pure love to my life. Thank u. You'll be purring on my lap again someday =^•,•^=

[RodBrennan]

Socks in coolant. Awesome



[ghostsharky]

Great song, terrible video. I wonder if a video that made more sense would have made the song a bigger hit when it came out.

[johnwbusbee]

Fuck I love this song.

[wpod64]

The Jayhawks should have been HUGE and not just for this song, excellent as it is. But who wants to listen to The Jayhawks when they can listen to Lady Gaga instead (morons, of course, but that's why the movie ''Idiocracy" is funny...because it's basically true. Anyway, I love The Jayhawks and I love this tune.

[Ryoken77]

What an awesome band....A pity they didn't hang around long....this is such a great album

[GabrielleBlueBelle]

Got this as a free single from HMV Pure, and I am soo glad I did!

Officially love this song now!

[shipsandtripstravel]

Love love LOVE this song. Forgot all about it until I heard it in Adam Carolla's film "The Hammer" (which is a GREAT movie, by the way). Such a beautiful song.

[Emgee78]

The 90's! The 90's! The lyrics to this song have haunted me since I was a teen.

[eyelikes]

such a great song, wondering why this wasn't huge

[ise74]

Where have all my friends gone? They've all disappeared

[sidDkid87]

always thought I was someone, turned out I was wrong - OR - it's hard to sing with someone, who won't sing with you . . . does it get any bluer than that?

[GodStarRevisited69]

this sounds so beautiful on vinyl, great classic tune.

[espiabobo]

All my life (staying while)

I'm waiting for (staying while)

Someone i could (waiting around)

Show the door (now that i'm blue)

But nothing seems to change

(that i'm blue from now on)

You come back that month

Gracias, Mark and Gary.

I remember seeing them open for Johnny Cash at the Orpheum in Minneapolis. They did an "unplugged" type set.

[chucklesmcphee]

Pulled out my vinyl of this LP yesterday. Still sounds great.

[MrBaconTastic]

wish they got back together for a tour...

[csims1210]

@MrBaconTastic They did! I can't wait. Gonna check em out in NYC @ Webster Hall in January.

[NarisTorquere]

very well written song. song writing is a sublime and important art.  turning on a drum machine and sampling something and saying "one two, ugh ugh" is no substitute for digging deep and coming up with an original melody.

[deanace777]

@NarisTorquere Yes,Yes. There's a lot to said for organic music with an intelligent lyric. I have their "Best of" CD. Love it!

[928928928928]

certo che le canzoni dei jayhawks sono splendide, ma i video fanno proprio cagare...

[electricpub]

perfect.

[snusskalle]

this reminds me of my childhood :,)

[9erfandex]

WOW!!!!! What a great song! Hard to believe this is15 years old, it sounds like it could have been released yesterday! Just gotta love the instrumentation, heavy on the accoustical side, and yes the harmony on the vocals is just south of HEAVEN! Thanks langsense for the upload, You Tube for the space, and The Jayhawks for making "Blue" a little more bearable!

[rockerjakee]

15,000 views? It should be more like 15,000,000!!!

[rangers94ism]

@rockerjakee Thank you

[tunecamp]

Good Harmony

[snkkreuzer]

been too blue too long, wanna find another way, got a lyric in my heart , one I hope will make you stay

[thesmogmankills]

havent heard this song in ages till a few days ago and now i must have added 400 views to it....true harmony and grace this song is soooo smooth and sad and depressing but incredible...damm i wish they were still together making classics like this LIKE 100000 times over!!!!!!!

[Yimi97]

@thesmogmankills They are! They were on hiatus from 2005-2009. Their new album is expected to be out in mid-2011.

[slaxwell55]

@thesmogmankills You forgot... and beautiful IS!!! a great song...I thumbs up ya... :)

[Siany71]

What a blast from the past!! Love it :)

[Magicbrianwood]

Great song from a great album. Well covered by the Thorns later. Olson and Louris have a Parsons-era Flying Burrito/Byrds thing going on in there somewhere.

[ScarlettWilk]

Awesome song, thanx for posting :)

[Demon1babe]

Superrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrr

[skybluestoday]

Achingly poignant song I don't think about as often as I ought to.

A girlfriend from the 1990s gave me a mix-tape with this as the first track...oh my...!

[pazangalang]

WOW!

Thanx thanx thanx...

i LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE this song!!!

[glibster]

Thank you for posting this video! I haven't heard this song in ages...
