no one has said this yet. so im going to.. this video playing is not the song soul one. its a different song their playing. and " soul one" was just dubbed over it and this soul one version is on the "rarities and b-sides" cd. id like to see and hear what this video really is tho. havent seen it and im an extreme melon/shannon hoon fan. so its crazy if i havent seen this real video
If you think you've over heard no rain...listen to it on acid or shrooms then rethink! Its clearly meant for psychadelic drugs...I listen to No rain like any other melon song because its truely an amazing song...it doesn't matter how much its over played...I go thru at least both albums 2wice a day and never get sick of the songs...the more I listen the more i learn newer stuff...This band is a really good acid trip!
@artificialred there are many of us melon heads out there. you can make your own shirt easily.........print out sunburst logo, trace it on transparency and cut it out. then use acrylic paint. or buy one from me
Hands Down One of the BEST Rock Acts Ever. Had seen them when they opened up for Niel Young and All Good in Atlanta, Georgia - They were just a good of an act as Metallica, Guns N Roses, and the Black Crowes - though the Black Crowes always deliver a lovely show. and are constantly on the road....
no rain was played out, but that's because it's the only song the petty public can try to relate to. that song has so much more meaning than just a pretty tune and voice.
the only reason everyone hates no rain is because radio stations overplayed it if you heard that song without the play it's had over the years you'd love it garunteed
would like to encourage u all to go to shannons vigil in dayton indiana sep 26 pay ur fukin respects show some love man we love and miss u shannon from all of ur fans in lafayette where we still cry for u
It makes me sick how underrated this band and how much great music they would've made had Shannon not died (with all due respect to their most recent album, which is decent).
You're absolutely right. But I can say, as a musician, it's really hard to get recognised for this sort of stuff at the moment since the music scene is all about Hip Hop and dance/techno, or if not that, mainstream pop and rock. It's ridiculous because very little of it is talented.
@VivianneRoy Tons of people have probably replied to this already, but they did, its on the album Nico, and its one of my favourite tracks off that album
have we realy turened into our elders our youngens are gonna be like whats so great about nineteys music same as we did to our elders its just a generation thing tough i agree 100% that the passion for music is gone thanks media
I blame that motherfuckin' Bobby McFerrin and his "Don't Worry, Be Happy!"-shit in the late 80's. Too many people were busy "bein' happy" and "not worrying" that we ended-up with this shit mess we've got now.
I love how they can do different versions of their songs and they all kick ass! Anyone know if this and "under pressure" were ever considered for release as part of an album, Or was "under pressure" just part of that concert footage? I love it. He is mesmerizing. ps. they're my secret,too
i wish i could play this song in my guitar with the same feeling they do, ut it just seems like i cant, i guess thats 'cause shannons voice its so cool or maybe im makind the riffing real bas =P
there are so few singers that live can hit notes effortlessly like that, even taken them higher than the studio. And most singers with technically good voices come off wimpy(like Journey in my opinion), but not Hoon.
What a bad ass version of this song. Im blown away. Blind melon are one of the greatest bands that have ever been. Def. the most underappreciated band ive ever heard.
so true man, its amazing the fan base never really expanded, but then again they have a certain edge to their songs like a style w. his voice and everything that doesnt reach all people. i try to introduce people to hoon and melon and they simply don't connect with it. lets just be thankful we can appreciate this because its incredible.
I favorited this creation because the whole thing has personal meaning to me.
Not concerning myself with the "degradation", but appreciated the splice and shakiness video
very much! :D
