  • HQ-version:

    /watch?v=NipQYqT-OTU

    At least, not so many squares in it))

  • Brilliant

  • The guitar riff at the beginning sounds very much like the intro of Stop! from Jane's Addiction.

  • i have uploaded a better quality version of this song, check my channel ;)

    brilliant album btw, one of my top faves

  • Beavis and Butthead....video...Sweet!!!

  • 9 dislikes ?

  • I miss these guys ... especially their earlier days. This song rocked.

  • @Crenfax9 Apparently, the band has reunited and there will be an announcement tomorrow.

  • I saw these guys at the 4th of July Barbecue in St. Pete one year. They plaid this song for like 20 straight minutes because there were rain clouds rolling in and they weren't going to stop until the rains hit. Bad ass show

  • randomly popped into my ipod today havent heard it in years and forgot how awesome this song is...and even moreso timeless. shit still resonates today. werd.

  • zaje...ist muzyczka, trafiłem przypadkiem i jest niezła

    They are amazing

  • i remember meeting edwin when he was a waiter, he told me about his new band they just started... then i saw his "new" band and told him... you guys will be big one day... he said yeah right... I was right lol! ...miss hanging out at his and christians place downtown toronto... good times ;), great guys, awesome band... yes they do need to regroup!

  • FOR FUCKS SAKES..goddamn

    That's all I can say

  • It would REALLY BE GREAT, if these guys, (I MOTHER EARTH) would get back together and perform again! I miss their music., and dont know why they quit. I Hope to see this band ROCK again! I went and saw them live at After The Gold Rush In Colorado. "They" were great! Another band, "Lucys Fur Coat was the opening band. They were great too!

  • Great band from 90s alternative rock !!! yeeaaah !!!

  • love this song love this song love this song

  • Anyone remember rippin down the comedybowl flat out back in lake louis to this rythym?... oh wait , that was ME!!!!!!!!! good times man... fuck those were the days.

  • I always thought this video looked an AWFUL lot like "jesus christ pose" by Soundgarden.

  • This is an awesome CD. I won it in a radio contest 15 years ago. I just love it!

  • true crime streets of la hehe

  • This is what I call a rock song!

  • Why the fuck didn't they keep on making music like this???????????

    Talk about a FAILED CAREER, assholes

  • @originaleptu Edwin was clashing with the band members with hat I assume was the musical direction the band was taking. So he lected to do is own thing. Thus, "Edwin" was born. A few good tracks, but does not compare to I.M.E.

  • is it just me or does the beginning sound an awful lot like 'stop'

  • RAIN WILL FALL!!!!!

  • Why can't new bands come out with creative stuff like this now a days?? Why is everything F***ING EMO!!!!!!!!!!! sigh........

  • Oh man, I'm 15 again!

  • @mandieb99 haha i am 15 and this is what i listen to, along with tool, rage and system of course : )

  • @BlurredVisi0n Good to know the classics never die!

  • @BlurredVisi0n I'm 14 And I Listen To Those Bands *brofist*

  • This brings back so many memories! This was one of my favorite albums when I was in high school. Man, I wish I still had it! Time to look at Amazon!

  • this video is a lot like jesus christ pose by soundgarden

  • @likespaintball yep both trippy as hell

  • man i can't let this guy serve me a drink at the bar. i just have too much respect for the him. stop bartending and playing with this new band cause its not the right chemestry. i saw him with his new band and he just looked miserable. talk to your old band and get over your issues. done

  • @Konakola Fukken Eh! I watched these guys open for Moist in the 90's so good. Wish they would have kept it together. Listen to that guitar!!!!!

  • this is when rock rocked.

  • Oo. Someone has been listening to Stop! by Janes Addiction.

  • this really gets your blood pumpin'

  • SAAAAAVE THE COMPLAINTS

    FOR PARTY

    CONVERSATION!

    THE WO- wrong song? Sorry, same intro confused me, lol.

  • Rockin song, badass bass riff ( I'm learning this one!). Saw them in concert in Daytona in" 95" They kicked ass!

  • Fuk! I wanted this song and iTunes doesn't have it FUUUUUUUUUUUUUK!!!!!!

  • I agree with you monkey1monk. Except with Brian and not egoman Edwin. Edwin's voice just isn't up to par anymore to come back and do IME and IME is to good a band to ruin it with bad vocals or not so strong anymore vocals like Edwins.

  • @SuperSophie5555 you're right

  • I mother Earth... where did you go... Edwin... get your ass back to basics... bring back the band.

  • this is THEE best drum trip I've ever experienced... the guy is just FANTASTIC!

  • Why the F does youtube think this is disco genre?

  • please if anyone has guitar tabs for this song, please leave a comment on my channel with the link

  • kickass

  • @violetoctohedron

    in the game TRUE CRIME OF L.A. for playstation 2

    and more song beautiful in this game:

    taproot,megadeth,and song hip hop snoopy dog,nelly,and more,more...

  • This song and video...its like a crazy aboriginal trip in the desert on peyote to conjure up some rain

  • Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain will fall!

  • one of my favorite choruses

  • To even consider this band "post-grunge", is a huge insult to them. I still love those first two records even after 15 years of listening to them.

  • It was a stupid decision of his to leave the band.

  • I know the lead singer to this song.  i really do I'm not kidding.

  • you know edwin?

  • well this is a Really Cool Song!

  • Entire album is phenomenal.

  • @SatoriEarth Yes it is.

  • Planet earth boys...planet mother fucken earth.......

    *sit back relax... & take it in...*

  • love this song but I was just listening to "Rare Earth - King of the Mountain" and it sounds like this riff was lifted from that song. BTW Rare Earth are the fathers of funk rock

  • uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!

    soundtrack game TRUE CRIME OF L.A.

  • Yeah, that's what I thought. It's pretty awesome!

  • Maaaan, this song and the first two IME albums were amazing, BUT...I feel sorry for those of you not willing to give their last two albums a chance. Brian Byrne is a really great singer, and 'Blue, Green, Orange' and 'The Quicksilver Meat Dream' are two really really great rock albums. Give them a chance, guys!!!

  • Why hate on a music video! Loser!!!!!

  • fucking AWESOME!

  • amazing! reminds me of RHCP and Soundgarden! :)

  • Saw these guys touring for Dig and they were amazing.

    Saw them again touring for Scenery and Fish and Edwin had already started turning into a huge dick.

    Then he left, thinking he'd be a big star, and that went nowhere.

    And IME somehow found a singer so annoying that he made me wish Edwin and his ego would come back. Talk about wasted potential.

    Still, the band put out two very impressive records.

  • Pity... they rocked.

  • edwin left because the guitarist was too controling...

  • The first time I saw this video was on a VHS series called Rock Video Monthly. Still have the VHS tape....Killer....lol

  • Man, this album is available anymore in Germany, goddamn it!

  • WOOT WOOT!

  • Fucking EH!....

  • rains gonna fall and these guys are gonna be the one bringing it

  • ahh... 1993... the good old days :)

  • one of the coolist bands ibna long time

  • Comment removed

  • Legendary band in my opinion! I love how this song kinda has a RHCP feel to it but with edge! Amazing song.

  • man i love when a guitar sounds like the one in this song.

  • anyone know if they still sell IME albums? or TTP, either.

  • you can usually find them in used shops commonly.

  • huh. just ordered in from HMV, no extra cost. $17, tho. XP scenery and fish be the one.

  • Just picked this album up for 5.99 at a local used CD shop.

  • Put a million kms on it

  • @AceOfSpade1234 do you know how jealous you just made me? im actually crying right now :P

  • @AceOfSpade1234

    what a steal for such a killer album!

  • @AceOfSpade1234 you paid too much.. I bough this for a dollar 15 years ago ;)

  • thia is the song that got me into metal XD <3 love it ^^

  • Unici!!!!!

  • someone needs to let go of the live versions of this. dig is awesome.

  • Fuck me, play this live and the crowd will bounce for eternity

  • I still long for this kind of music; groovy, funky, pychedelic ROCK! If only things had been different.....................­.

  • this is a great song, love it! really good 4 foot/car chases!

  • and you chase a lot of people on foot while listening to hard rock do you? :)

  • this was one of the last rock n roll songs that became a hit when crappy grunge and alternative took over in the 90s. I got to hang out with them after a show back in 94. very cool band. I still listen to this album alot

  • heard this on true crime streets of LA, brings back memories.

  • This song is a masterpiece..so inspirational and groovy..damn..no such music these days..what happened..??

  • this was their first hit, and they gad maybe 10 more, then edwin quit the band and it was never the same, for either party ;_;

  • i concur, Edwin, got one of those, "Hey, you're more talented than these guys, so why not go solo", then Edwin, like Raine from OLP became "no ones" and "has beens"...

  • They only got better when Edwin left.

  • wish edwin and the band had stayed together, they had a special style

  • you like classic goodness? check out the norm show!

  • classic goodness

  • I bought this cd from columbia house or bmg one of those record clubs. I'd never heard of them, but the blurb simply said something like "Hard hitting Canadian metal." I was looking to finish my 12 free picks and chose this. What a great surprise! I've loved these guys ever since.

  • That's like winning the lottery my good friend.

  • Damn shame they started the downhill spiral after this CD... Killer CD.

  • Goddamn---what a killer voice!

  • geez that's a freakin good song :D

  • Fun fact, IME began by practicing in my cousin's garage. They went to school with my brother and he got to see them mature through it... Quite jealous -.-

  • Dig was such an amazing album. Edwins voice was sick. They should bring him back and go back to playing this music, not that conformist shit they started playing after this album.

  • who are you kidding?! their new stuff is wicked too

  • Nah, this was their only good one.

  • Comment removed

  • I used to have this tape !!! Awesome,,5 Stars !!!

  • I remember buying this CD back in 1993 after hearing this song-don't know why it wasn't a huge it-thanks for posting!

  • The first time I saw this video I was rolling face at a party with friends. He was like, "you got to check this video out". So I was completely blown away at this video and I Mother Earth forever afterwards. Love this video.

  • Bring Edwin back, bring the funk rock back, and tour Canada! I miss IME something fierce!

  • When I first heard this song on mtv I bought the cd and STILL have it!! Whole thing is wonderful!!

  • I want to blame popular radio and urban influences for shunning this masterpiece, somehow this song was never taken as the ground breaking masterpiece it actually is. It has every vital important influence mixed into it from Santana to Led Zeppelin to grunge elements and beyond, this song never gets old. Class musicians all the way.

  • I saw this video on MTV once and I heard it on the radio once. That was a long time ago. I'll never understand why considering this song is just as good, if not better, than songs made by smashing pumpkins or stone temple pilots or soundgarden. Am I right or wrong?

  • you're totally correct, smashing pumpkins lacked alot of elements to capture my devotion, and STP were very hit & miss, but if there were people that understood IMotherEarth why were there so many others that ignored their promising attributes?? why?

  • I know why. Because it wasn't on the radio and MTV much. Or someone didn't kiss someone's ass enough to promote it enough. There ARE politics in music..... Guys like us were lucky enough to catch them on the radio or MTV. When I found out about them, I showed all my friends and they loved IME! But they didn't like the CD's that came after the first one...

  • I actually heard alot of complaints about Edwin's voice, which I just didn't understand, his voice might have lacked a bit of range and power live but in the album it sounds perfectly good to me, he just wasn't doing that Grunge gimmick where everyone was trying to bring back the Jim Morrison style back like AIC/Pearl Jam. But if they're going to use Edwin's voice as an excuse then they just don't understand what the band was doing musically & his voice was just the right fit.

  • Yeah, stupid pop music is ruining it all. >:( Why can't they ever play GOOD songs on the radio anymore?

  • Heavy as fuck!

  • Sounds very influenced by Jane's Addiction. I love the energy and the massive amounts of bass. Any song with a bass solo is alright with me.

  • Man this old stuff still rocks, breaths so many unique styles and disciplins!

  • There will never be anything even remotely as cool as this song, and this band.

    IME FOR LIFE.

  • shockingly good, I haven't heard this in years. this rocks pretty damn hard

  • yeah.IME.the REAL stuff.METAL ON!

  • they should've never cut this song short. the version on the CD is WAY better!

  • same story with every single IME has released, new or old.

  • what do you mean? every video is cut short?

  • i like apple pie...i like chocolate cake...but i also like this song. can't eat it...but hey its awsome XD

  • one of the best fucking songs of the 90's period. These guys are to fucking good for the radio crap of today.

  • this song kick fucking ass

  • hi everyone ! did someone know where i can find ther album "DIG" ! thanks to all answered !

  • Just ....yeah ;-)

  • great song great band why is edwin doing lite rock now?

  • You guys like this, you should check out Mindfunk, they were also good.

  • helll yeah

  • Another great underated Band, before all that crap came out in the mid 90's there was still good alternative Rock Metal.

  • Shit! this brings back some memories! :O

  • Yeah! This was pretty damn funky! I love it!

  • love this song, i also like levitate

  • One of my favourite CD's, even though haven't listened to it in like 10 years. And one of the most under-rated guitarists alive...never flashy, but always tasteful and creative. Such a unique style.

  • production is their best song, i love this album!

  • ahhh, ime at their best, why edwin? these guys are some of our finest canucks.

  • i remember shooting so many terrorist as nick

    kang in True Crimes Streets of LA while i
