Phish: Bouncing Around The Room 2/16/97

[a26z1c2b3]

I love this song. It reminds me of parties back in the 90s where I used to hear it a lot.

[DNBGuRu]

@a26z1c2b3

Precisely, such good times. 

[almach5]

Bouncing Around the Room is one of my favorite songs of all time, and by far my favorite Phish song - the medley, words, harmonizing and repetitive tempo just NEVER gets old. This version has some of the best sound I've heard on YouTube as yet. Many thanks for posting it.

[Ripjerry95]

1:30-the end is the best part of the song.

[ouellettee]

@Ripjerry95 you're an idiot

[Ripjerry95]

yeah cheers to you too, buddy

[pinkstarburst95]

Tiny Tim?

[bestevez1]

phish is awesome...theres just something...terrific about their songs

[Taxi502]

i know what that something is... the great ability to tell a story with lyrics. And the incredible ability to tell a story without lyrics, just instuments. They can actually tell a story without any lyrics. Know what i mean? That is their most amazing quality, to me anyways

[caseyjones92]

agreed, they're very melodic

[XtremeChristian]

Anointed

[merrybreeze]

This is about as good as it gets.....blesses..

[jmich725]

[oilbutter]

[hoohaw1]

[bestevez1]

[sk8er4ever0101]

ahahah little bit!

[desertfox202]

Hopefullly, I am not the first....

[lilyj70]

Everyone I knew snuck in a beach ball to a Phish concert we went to, and it was utter mayhem as they went bouncing around the room! Great nite!!

[kalburiumstormbreath]

Man I be the get sick of playing this song!

[beatlesrock354]

i love phish and i think its awesome that they are back and touring i wish i could see them this summer but i can't when i found out i could i was super bummed. but listening to them play on cd and online brought me up and got me happy, so i hope you all get to see them in concert because the more people who like phish the better

[stargate121]

Go Chuck Norris!

[Alexialoubier]

what is the obsession w/Chuck?

[stargate121]

They were on Saturday Night Live and Horatio Sands played a stoned guy who called the beard dude Chuck Norris.

[DJisThereThere]

trey kinda looks tired. great song though.

[Tortalone]

rethink that statement...its phish...

he was most likely super high...good song though agree

[frankc32]

I like to live in the beauty of the moment, and not in some weak denial of the truth...

[ccbuster1]

love at first hear , playing to a german television audience you better be at your best

[bestevez1]

i love how all of them can sing well, phish rocks, rap is crap!

[mikedyche]

why the fuck did you say that... it was out of nowhere.. get off the dope, crack is wack

[hippiekyd416]

I freaking love this song.

[8710244]

what a good song.

[theunconquerable1]

Bob Marley's sons outta tour with them

[sour4lifedood]

which son? he has a bunch of them

[Bingham420]

lovvve this song!

[BlahBlahYo]

im gonna skip a semester of school and get a job now so i can save up and follow them in the spring of 09!

[beatlesrock354]

iam 13 i never got to see them i hope they get back together i wanna see a concert of theirs

[frankc32]

I now officially feel like I am 100 years old! No worries! Listen and rock on, young pup beatlesrock354, it is with you that our legacy and hope lies, plain and simple. No pressure or anything...and so the torch is passed...carry on my good young friend...

[slapshot2940]

wow frank, i feel like i just got baptized.....haha....don't worry, good music will live on.

[frankc32]

LOL my friend, rock on!!!

[allforyouz]

I also have never seen them and I would kill to do so.

[Phished123]

yup i'm 20 i never got to see them either..bleh..rumor has it a reunion may be in the works though :) hopefully they will tour, and not just do a festival.

[oliviagale]

Trey is still out there and he's great solo. I just saw him a few weeks ago in Newport.

[TubeYourFace]

fall of 09 cross youre fingers

time to quit the jobs and grab the patchies

[macdralle]

Only way phish is going to get back together is if they go by "Phish staring the amazingly awesome Trey Anastasio". It hurts me to say it but it is true.

[mophish]

Phish isn't just Trey (although he is amazingly awesome) but like the Beatles and Zeppelin before them, they are an all or nothing band. They could never tour with a replacement drummer, bassist, or piano player. Plain and simple. Phish IS Trey, Mike, Page, & Jon. So, I'm sorry to say it is very much NOT true.

[huntmich]

While I agree that they could never replace a member and still work, they are only at their best when Trey is at his best. A solid Trey performance can make up for a lackluster performance from another member, but I think the post-hiatus proved that a sub-par Trey makes for a bad show, no matter how good the other guys are. He is their leader and always will be.

[mooseman077]

@mophish don't forget about Kuroda man, but i totally agree with you. get ready for summer tour!

[LSUsuperBuick]

@mophish I agree completely, they wouldn't be Phish without all four of their influences.

[zenbassistfilmmaker]

I love this song. Man I'd love to see them again.

[Rupicolous]

Still as amazing as the first time I heard it.

[longboardking2]

trey and fish look like cave men ,lol

long live phish!

[frankc32]

I love how Trey makes the decision to cut it, around 3:26 he just gets Gordon's attention, Page and Fish feel it, and they nail it shut, just a fine band and a fine sound, wrapped up tighter than a motherfucking drum.

[pythagoruz]

This song puts me bouncing every time..

That time then and once again.

[frankc32]

pythagoruz, bouncing is good, no? Love it!!!

then before and now, once more

I'm bouncing 'round the room

'bout that time then and once again

I'm bouncing 'round the room"...! (x4)

[Darowolf]

phish is fucking awesome, if you dont like them you suck at life, honeslty theyre fucking nasty. im a dead head to, and no theyre not copying off the grateful dead, theyre better

[BigMetalM]

thanks a lot!! This is one of the best bands. I've noticed that people have been harshin Phish talkin about how they are copying off Greatfull Dead, and thats so not true. Im glad people like you have enough sense to know when they see greatness such as Phish. Rock on man.

[madmod6]

I honestly don't know what else to say to describe Phish but perfection. Bands these days follow the same routine and tend to get boring. But Phish, these guys know how to really play, and grab you with their music. My brother and his friends absloutely love this band, and at first i did'nt think much of them, but now, i can't stop listening to them. Like everyone else, i await their epic return. *Peace*

[frankc32]

well put madmod6! few bands are as tight as the boys from Phish, vocally and instrumentally, solid stuff! Let's hope Trey comes back strong! That Xanax and Vicodin will FUCK with a motherfucker!!!

[hegonnagetya]

ev1 keeps acting like its treys pills that keep them from working...if thats the case how does he have a new album coming out? Come on guys i love them to but they just got tired of it ..it wasnt the same anymore at the end it wasnt about the tunes and people it became a drug fest not a music love fest....page has a new album out too.....just remember the good times cause thats all we got.

[CKNY42]

poetry in motion

[frankc32]

so right on, bro'...poetry in motion is right.

[Paragon0fVirtue]

lol is it me or does fish look like John Bonham in this video

[phishisgrate]

ya man nice snipe

[jmad1771]

my bong is names maze, got it from this song

[frankc32]

jmad1771, don't hit that tube too hard my friend, you will live to regret it...live, learn, love and outgrow the bong...

Frank

[picquochet]
