  • Thank you for leaving this little piece of you behind Shannon. It's helped me through it all.

  • Wow! That's a great song with a lot of meaning! Shame on me that I didn't know this song but thank God an actress mentioned it as her favorite one...I know it's stupid but at least I found it :)

  • this song breaks me every goddam time

  • you will never know how much this song means to me thank you shannon R.I.P

  • Rest peacefully my sweet boy,

    Jayce Alexander Dorman.

    See you on the other side

    I love you,

    Mom

  • Thought he was 23 when he died

  • @wolffmagic72 no he was 28

  • the words are "i want to write my words on the FENCE of today- and then they'll paint it...."

    its not FACE- its FENCE. you don't PAINT a FACE you dimwits!!!!!!!!!!! :)

  • @UltimateSteevil the facew of todayt it makes sence its a saying

  • @UltimateSteevil unless your a snazy indian?:) haha

  • Great video, and a tribute to a very creative guy who left us too early.

  • This song is so true to life,i love it.

    rest in peace shannon♥

  • genious and madness

  • This is the only song that ever made me cry...

  • when life is hard turn to drugs

  • whoever uploaded this is full of shit... It's a nice story, but I've been to his grave, and am looking at a photo of his marker taken with my own phone... It is inscribed as follows... " Richard Shannon Hoon Beloved Father And Son Sept 26 1967-Oct 21 1995" That is all, there are embellishments by countless fans, but that is the engravings... rip hoon man... teach the angels how to sing bro....

  • @4420Andrew theres a lower part. the top says what you wrote, the bottom says " I know we can't all stay here forever.So I want to write my words on the face of today, And they'll paint it" Google it dude, its true

  • I´m gonna delete these account but i´ll make other and upload this video again

  • Does anyone know if shannon was inspired by neil young because he reminds me so much of him

  • i still have my ticket to that show in New Orleans.

  • @iv806 wow , I wish I had been there , surely it was great

  • i still have my ticket to that show in New Orleans.

  • He wrote his message, and THEY DID paint it

  • All of his songs where such a cry for help. Help, I guess, he never did get

  • Too often that's the price of genius, internal tourture. Without those feelings artists like Shannon Hoon wouldn't have the the fuel to their fire and would never have written the beautiful songs we all love. In many cases their success walks hand in hand with their doom.

  • @JMoondog15 That's so not true... Ronnie James Dio was a genious, either, but he didn't have any feelings of self-destruction.

  • GOD I LOVE THIS TRACK....

  • We may never understand how much a person hurts inside, for one it may be nothing more than a bad day. For another the pain is enough every day to no longer want to live. We are all different, it is up to each of us to never judge, but to only Love.

  • @seekeroftruthful Yes, U'r so right!!!

  • ha my girl has good taste in music she showed me themX3

  • i love you, shannon.

  • Rest In Peace Shannon... =/

  • beautiful video, beautiful song:)

  • But i know we all cant stay here forever... so i want to write my words on the face of today. and then they'll paint it. ~ Shanoon Hoon

  • I discovered Blind Melon a few days ago, and wow, this band is fantastic..

  • dammn Shannon was awesome. Why do the CRAZY ASS BRILLIANT have to be so tortured?

  • OMG ty i love blind melo :)

    

  • the good ones go early ..

  • RIP :( We lose all the good ones way too early.

  • Why do they have to damage themselves? And why do they have to die young?

    Geniuses are the most misunderstood because only a few geniuses and real artists existed amongst us. They're the most understood because most of the individuals in this planet are just plain simple. Scared of doing things since they're being dictated by what the society agrees with.

  • @patzss totally agree most people only go with whats socially acceptable and some do it without even realising

  • We all self medicate, some choose healthier methods than others...a shame no doubt!

  • Why do they have to damage themselves????? They're young, talented, beautiful, popular, people love them, they write their feelings on a paper,put them in their songs and then, people just sing the songs like they're prayers!!!!!!!!! Is there something more magical than this???????????

  • @ba773r1na you are really right ! i like your point of view :)

  • @gnrsmith96

    Thank you!!! :)

  • @ba773r1na i don't know why they die so young but its true what they say " Too often people die with there music still in them. often because they are getting ready to live". I love shannon but he left a new born daughter behind!!! Makes me sad to the core:(

  • @malachymcnulty Yes. Everything is sad. The fact that he died young, he actually killed himself, he left the music behind him is sad... but the worst is that his daughter was a new born baby when he died... she didn't even know him... THIS is really sad :(

  • @ba773r1na he didnt exactly kill himself it was drugs he went to rehab but when he went on tour the rehab dude went with but left i the middle of the tour

  • @eminemluver888 I know he died by drug overdose, but if you think about it, what is that?? suicide.

  • @ba773r1na yea but remember about addiction its crazy

  • @eminemluver888 Yeah, I know.. The matter is not to start doing it... If you start you're 95% lost... Then you just can't control yourself.. And it's not only your mind addicted, it's your body, too.

  • @ba773r1na but it cant be a suiside because shannon hon dident want to die

  • @eminemluver888 He definitely didn't wanna die. But he did it to himself.

  • @malachymcnulty beautiful Nico Blue:))

  • @ba773r1na without drugs or the feeling of dying you wouldnt have this song

  • @eatmybreads22 Yeah, but really, I wish Shannon Hoon was alive and happy, with his daughter (who definitely needs her father), without drugs or any kind of addiction and I don't care if I wouldn't have this song or Blind Melon's music. And I believe the same for every rockstar who's dead or alive, but addicted to drugs or alchool. it's really sad... :(

  • @ba773r1na

    its simple..as much as you have in ur life you will never be satisfy and always will want more ..its our nature

  • @helenemo100 That makes sense.. Yeah! This is it... Thanks :)

  • @ba773r1na Maybe it is because they realize they will never be more than what they are currently unless they well...you know...

  • Great video thanks for putting it up!

  • @Shifty77 good that you like it! , although I´ve made a mistake in one part :S

  • @gnrsmith96 There are a couple of words switched around here and there, but that's okay.  Thanks for posting, this is one of the better ones with lyrics bro! Ya know, this song has literally saved lives!

  • Great band :( but to bad he died so young, that's what drugs do to your life!

  • blind melon is my favorite band ever !!!!

  • yeah! is a band with a well defined style , fuck!!!!!!!!! why did shanoon hoon died !

  • @gnrsmith96 drugs
