  • great song, but the slideshow is kinda gay (not that there's anything wrong with that....)

    blind melon is not just shannon, you know...

  • los estribillos de este temazo me dan ganas de acabar en seco ja

  • Shannon Hoon was a great man and he had a very beautiful soul. He's chillin with Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain, Jerry Garcia, John Lennon, and all the other great geniuses of the world. One day maybe he'll come back to play one last encore for us. God I hope so.

  • I  love this song! It's such a powerful song, and the guitar in this song is amazing! R.I.P. Shannon. <3<3<3<3.

  • <3 

  • I think they should get the lead vocalist from The Silversun Pickups as the new lead vocalist for Blind Mellon, he kind of sounds like Shannon.

  • Thanx so much for the slideshow. It was absolutely beautiful!!! ...........Peace and God Bless

  • Goddammit why did he have to die?

  • @Vlad333Danziger Everyone will die.

  • I love tha one where he was trippin balls at Woodstock, I shoulda been at that show!!!

  • awesome music.. great guitar work at the end.. love Blind Melon..

  • Saw a few pictures i hadnt seen before. Thanks for the slideshow whoever it may concern :]

  • My favorite song from Blind Melon.

  • the songs that make me feel good when things behind my smiles aint ok

  • @TrafficoneMan "Find myself singing the same songs everyday

    ones that makes me feel good when things behind the smiles aint ok" getting tattooed soon, so fucking beautiful

  • @blindm3lonlov3r

    100% agreed , i am adding it to my other blind melon tattoo , i have the mask shannon is holding under the disc on nico on my arm

  • @TrafficoneMan ohhh man im going to have like 45 blind melon tattoos before its all said and done and wear them proudly when im like 85. Its going to be AWESOME. :]]]]]]

  • @blindm3lonlov3r you got the cockroach one yet? i got that around my neck about 10 years ago..

  • blind melon makes my day 100% better. <3

  • Easter 2011, I'm only gonna listen to the musicians of the early 90's who died far too young

  • seriously i wish i could of seen hoon and blind melon in their hayday i would probly have gon to everyshow

  • This song seriously about brings me to tears..... RIP RSH.

  • thumbs up all of you who are about to go on Shannon's live in heaven with me ^^

    it's gonna be crowded don't you think?

  • @stankamj Shannon is still with us on earth, but I know what you're saying.

  • that intro makes me cry....its like if my mind starts live in other dimension that i like....

  • Even though i never personally met Shannon, his words have as much meaning to me as if they were being said -to- me. I will forever miss his presence on this earth, and hope to god he is reincarnated as something even greater very soon.

  • 4 people have been deserted

  • @swankyswigs21 1 person is unoriginal

  • Look at the clock, 4:20? Oh MY! Spark up the joint, it's time to get high...

  • @trentstamc Haha!No way,just cracked open a can,scrolled down and read that and it was like 3:40 too,chances a that!?=]

  • look at the time 4:20 OH MY! Spark up the joint it's time to get high...

  • I love all there music, Brings my mood up

  • love these guys...can listen to them all day

  • where did you find the pictures?

  • i wish shannon was still alive.... i'd marry the guy,

    or at least rape him.

  • Shannon will never die. He lives through our hearts & minds, forever!

    <3

  • i just feel something so deep in this song, in all their songs. something that touches my heart and i deeply love shannon hoon and blind melon. from the bottom of my heart.

  • Everytime i'm peaking i listen to Blind Melon and instantly everything that i'm doing is connected to the music...thus everything shannon says in his lyrics happens to me idk blind melon only has that power...its something about this band thats so unreal....theyre amazing!

  • @Aliceinchainhead i know man, it could be 4am and listening to blind melon i'd want to get on stage and play infront of millions of people, they put you in a musical and peaceful state of mind

  • i have not heard this song since i was 6 years old. Amazing how you can appreciate something that early in life that makes no sense to you. But what was beautiful is that when i heard it at 26 years old again. It was like taking a walk down memory lane, and it felt like Shannon was sitting next to me on my couch! So many mixed emotions run through me when i hear this song! Rest in Peace Shannon Hoon! We all love you! I cant wait to meet you! But "right now i dont wanna die"

  • I love how music of my generation has such a distinct sound....Blind Melon are in a category all of their own...I disagree with the alice in chains comment....I have seen both these bands live while Layne and Shannon were both alive....both bands kick ass ....but there is no comparison.....just my opinion!!

  • this song sounds a lot like alice in chains

  • 3:38 isn't that on the set for the no rain video? it's pretty funny :P

  • Shannon hoon was one of the most un sung frontman of our time, he killed every time he performed!! dam i miss him!

  • This song ..Makes you love the Life we all should live ,And God Bless ..Shannon :)

  • Damn I love that song, best song on that whole album without a doubt.

  • found these guys cds in a computer at school years ago, loved them since

  • whoa! the band wouldn't want us arguing on their page, show respect, guys & gals. the way a person types is up to them, it's what they SAY that has the meaning!

  • nooone can replace shannon hoon noone

  • essential to this life and the next all i can say.:)

  • i wish i had a poster of this 1:06

  • @77cabral77 Go to their website > pictures > Miscellaneous Group Collection

  • @MicaelluckOv what would this website be? 0.0

  • @77cabral77 use google. blindmelon . O R G

  • i wish i could go back in time when music was actually music and good, blind melon, temple of the dog, mother love bone!! most, if not all music these days is garbage..

  • one of my faves off this disc....so meaningful.Ben groupie-ing them for years. BM/UT

  • Great Band! My band opened for Blind Melon in '93....Im still trying to get close to what they achieved. Shannon will be a young soul forevermore.

  • You are forever missed,Shannon Hoon.May you Rest In Peace~

  • i can honestly say tha Blind Melon is the only band that i like that came out after 1989!! Shannon was just amazing i really wish i could have got the chance to see them in concert ! R.I.P Shannon!!!

  • I remember tripping my balls off to this song. It was in the midst of a very potent and powerful trip, the most powerful one i've ever had, just before it i was listening to Tool which got my adrenaline running thick then i put this in to chill out and my goodness, the visuals i saw were sooo beautiful and exciting at the same time. I'll never forget it~!

  • Amazing song !

  • this song is magic. i just discovered BM a 2 monthes ago and i am so thanksfull for this.

  • Can totally relate to this... discovering blind melon after so many years is like bumping into a second Jimi Hendrix, it just totally amazes you...

  • cool!!!!! i discoverd them around 02 and belive me it will go down as my mushroom summmer and this was the soundtrack the whole albumn

  • I remember that when I listened to this album in 93 or 94, this was my favorite song on it.

  • So glad people haven't forgotten him!

  • he will never be forgotten, defenitly my favorite band, its sad that he had to die but i love how everyone respects him and what he done to music, i don tthink iv seen one bad comment about blindmelon on any of there videos

  • how COULD you forget Shannon? he's a true legend.

  • No, THE WHOLE band is... =/ ...

  • I agree.

  • blind melon is one of the most under rated bands in history. what a deep rich layered sound!

  • @floundermon plus, an amazing name... xD

  • @floundermon vamo nene!!!

    

  • @floundermon lovin the "deep rich layered sound" description fragment. certainly feel you there

  • @floundermon excellent comment. however, i bet most of the people who agreed with it lack the understanding of it. im still a hater. and always will be. because people are idiots.

  • @bukk3t haha keep on hatin', keep on bakin'

  • @floundermon

    They aren't "one of the most under rated bands in history"... They are THE most under rated band in history.

  • i was one of his hometown buddies......he rocked lafayette indiana...............axl rose was from there too....but he sucks.......shannon was down to earth and ill never forget the good times we had.shannon ....god loves you dude....but you know that

  • If Blind Melon was playing on one side of the street and the Beatles were on the otherside I would go for the Blind Melon show.

  • just wanted to remind you about the SHANNON HOON VIGIL!!

    next weekend in Dayton, Indiana. (Sept. 25-27) @ Dayton Cemetary. The Vigil itself is on Saturday, SHANNON'S Birthday and a Vigilstock show is on Sunday. For more info check out the VIGILSTOCK page on myspace. Hope to see you there!

  • shannon is one of those people in history who are simply irreplaceable, he was fucking gorgeous on every sense of the word

  • i think this is blind melons best song, which is saying a lot. I thought blind melon was the most underrated band in history, glad to see thousands of fans loving them online as much as i do

  • this is one of my favorites well they all are

  • i love this song! blind melon lives!!!!

  • blind melon is the shit there crazzy

  • is this footage laf. ind?? thank you..for helping me that grief filled night. may 2005. To : SH's cousin:luv you.

  • My God, the music in this is fucking awesome! Guitar, drums, vocals - all perfect. Really draws a picture and stirs up emotions. This is one of the best songs ever. We miss you, Shannon. Your voice can never be replaced.

  • good musician

  • i love that pic on 3:26..haha, that was pretty cool.

  • guitar is amazing

  • Shannon shineson even after death,it's just the light of a new light shinin up on him!!Rock on Brother,you changed a lotta lives,be proud!!!!!!!!!!!

  • haha its 420 long

  • this being the song afte no rain, i cant stand no rain anymore cause it got played out. but due to that song my eyes got opened to the best kept secret in music history. rip shannon

  • I'm just here for the music

  • cool.. few pics i'd never seen.. good job.

  • Suc a great song... Best band of the nineties hands sown

  • Fuck, I love this song.

  • this song is so amazingg =]

  • just beautiful...very very for ever

  • I was 18 when Shannon died. I've always been into the bands of the 80's, like my favorite Def Leppard n' Poison, Skid Row, etc. But I think when it comes to the 90's, Blind Melon with Shannon's vocals & talent conquers the 90's decade.

  • It happened the way happened me. But I was 7 then, and discovered them in my teens, when I was about 15. I hear lots of 80's glam and rock, but this stuff is just incredible!

  • Listening to this over and over and over and over and over.....Blind Melon has a way of making everything in your life seem like it's going to be alright. Even when the content is SOOO dramatic and SOOO scarey to face....with the power of their or any music of your choice...you can do it!

  • my god...this song will echo through my life and death forever.....fuck me man this song gets me every time i hear it.

  • i espcially like the intro, tru dat

  • Little music hits me so right as these guys did. Damn.

  • i wish there WAS an afterlife.

    just so i could smoke a bowl with shannon. Fucking miss this guy....

  • This is one of my favourte songs

  • What a kickass tune. Nice......

  • God bless Shannon!

  • Love the pic at 3:25

  • This tune has been on my personal playlist for 14 years now.

  • GOD I LOVE THIS SONG!

  • haha 4:20

  • Nice pics  Thanks

  • nice..eheh in the photo where they are all toghether with bikes they are in Amsterdam..i'm sure ..funny pics

    R.I.P Shannon

  • this song got me through an addiction and a withdrawal so i fuckin love it

  • seems like an eternity has passed.

    man has it been nearly 20 years...

    i am going to give the new album a chance.

    shining up on meeeeee!!

    watch zeitgeistmovie children but do not allow it to leave you empty as what you have has always been with you and always will be!

    lost anyone to corporate drugs?

    Know the pain first hand?

    We must make a place for them and start to heal this world of ours so maybe the next generation will have the ability to choose life!

  • when shannon passed, i'd only heard no rain, but coupla yrs back i really started getting into the melon's music, and it is fuckin smooth!! love it man..

  • better late than never

  • Best Rock Band in the 1990's

  • Man it is incredible to hear people saying how they are just discovering them. I love hearing that! He passed when I was in my late teens and there hasn't been much that compares to thier talent level since. Glad to see the younger generations picking up on a great band!!!

  • I just discovered them during the summer.

    I have found love.

  • @Trace413

    I think there has been a Woodstock craze that hit in 2009 when the 40th anniversary came and the release of the Woodstock movie. With a new spotlight on Woodstock came more Woodstock searches on YouTube, then many found videos from Woodstock 1994, thus they found Blind Melon. From there they found out who was responsible for "No Rain", and etc. That's how I found out about them anyways - totally glad I did.

  • @Trace413 Yeah i just found them, was scrolling through a friends pod n saw "Blind Melon" n was like, hmmm sounds interesting.. The rest was history.

  • @Trace413 Dude, I am 21. I would've been about 11-15 through BM's peak.. And all I can say is I feel like I missed an opportunity. Shannon's pure energy, the band's overall cohesiveness.. just the entire package... Best band ever. It's unreal how I can listen to all three albums back to back over and over.

  • @johnmichael601 know what you mean. i hear all three over and over and all i can say everytime its done i love them a bit more. a dying wish to hear shannon`s voice live.

  • i feel his frustration. Can't live with out the anchovy&peanut butter sandwiches

  • hahaaaaaa...

  • damn wish i had listend to thes guys when I was a kid. Better late than never I guess

  • yea man i was only two when shannon died

    sadly i just found out about them yesterday

    i wish i wouldve found them earlier

    their music makes life so much more peaceful and able to enjoy it even if you are having a bad day =]

    RIP SHANNON
