Sad when we live in a world where a fat person can't be seen in a music video. It's music. It's not fashion or some sort of beauty pageant. But that's what pop music is these days. It's a beauty pageant, and if you don't look like a model, you're "ugly", and your music better be damn good, or they won't want you.
@Pulseczar1 That's what the music video is trying to show. They put the "pretty" boys on stage and have them "play", while they play the real music in the back.
I love this song and I love this band. I remember when this video came out and telling my friends that the girl playing Dorothy was cute and why does the singer of the fake band look like Eddie Vedder/Kurt Cobain mix? Oh man the days of innocence hahaha.

Love this song. This video was on almost every morning before I left for school. I went to school with a chick who looked the "Dorothy" from this video.
@Anlimema This is actually a pretty depressing SONG. hes in love with a woman but it goes sour. This song might be catchy but if youve ever been DUMPED in a long term relationship, then you might actually find this song rather familiar. Glad it makes you happy thou as when I hear this song I think of Brandy an EX that i fucked up with. Except I was the one giving the RUN around. Now I wish I treated her better and handled things more maturely. Love makes time pass and TIME makes love pass
Does anyone know who the stand-in band playing on stage in the video is, or who the members are? The lead looks a lot like Alan Doyle from Great Big Sea.
@YourDogIsDeadHAHA I think you missed the point of the video. It's a metaphor. The Great and Powerful Oz, hiding behind his curtain, while his false idol wow's the crowd. Hence Dorothy and the gang spending the entire video dropping hints for you to pick up on.
You'll have to hold SAS Superchik and Chretien down and spray that RAID in thier face. Just for the basement dives on Cavelier Dr in the 90s while she was trying to dig that foxhole.
Would anyone happen to have a copy (it'd have to be a boot-leg) of Blues Traveler in Chicago, Aragon Ballroom, NYE 1999?? I'm looking for a video of him doing Sweet Home Chicago with no luck...message me here if you have any leads! <3

Guys there is no point to fight over which type of music is the better!!
No matter the genre, decade, etc.
Whether it's a symphonic classic like Beethoven, a turbo-charged pop tune like LMFAO, a rocking experience like AC/DC, or even an optimistic colorful song like The Wiggles!
Music is to bring people together, and competition destroys the spirit.
@turbofreak200 Well first of all competition does not destroy the spirit. Often times competition brings the best in people. Example.When John lennon and Paul Mccartney wrote songs they competed with each other to write the best song.This compitition gave us some of the best music of all time.Also there is some music that is better than others The idea that all music is good is just not true. There is nothing wrong with having a discriminating taste in music. We don't have to like everything.
@midnight80090 No I don't think they were making fun of Adam I think the point of the video is that Blues Traveler does not have the right "look" So they play the music and remain behind the curtain while a youthfull hipper looking band stay out front. Counting Crows were very much the "in" band of the time when this video came out.
@midnight80090 They are mocking the entire music industry. If you don't have a certain look it doesn't matter how talented you are. How many talented people out there do you think get overlooked because they look a certain way, meanwhile Miley Cyrus gets her own tv show.
He's the nervous manager guarding the curtain where the real band is playing.

It's a great song and a great band but I don't get why people have to put down other music to make this music seem better. Some of the new stuff is good to. I believe it's important to appreciate good music no matter what year it was made.
love 90's music pearljam,nirvana,ginblossoms, toadies,melvins,screaming trees,soundgarden,butthole surfers,alice in chains,tad,L7,green river,smashing pumpkins etc etc
@invicta: Yes, absolutely. When this came out, it was fun. Fun to watch, fun to listen to. Fun to get the parody. Just fun for a break too when you wanted a blue sky for a change. I love Vedder, Pearl Jam and the 90's. I love all the melancholy music that came out of that decade. But sometimes you needed to break away, if only in silence and you did it alone by yourself. Because you needed to. You couldn't suffer along with the grunge solely because if you did you might not get up again.
@hereitis69 The point of the vide is that Blues travler did not neccasarily fit the "look" at the time. So instead they had a kind of grunge looking band.
@hereitis69 nah, they show him playing backstage. like that other person said it's partly them acknowledging (and even celebrating) that john popper particularly didn't fit the mold of a 90's frontman. but it's also part of the Wizard of Oz theme, with the "cool" looking band being fake and the actual guy doing the singing being a disappointingly normal guy.
I loved grunge just as much as anyone in the 90's. But (and feel free to tell me if I'm alone here), did Blues Traveler seem to anyone else like a breath of fresh air after 4 or 5 years of listening to the depressing, mumbling, "ironic" stuff getting all the airplay when this debuted? I swear, I remember thinking when I heard this at 15 years old "Thank GOD...music is still allowed to be FUN. There's hope after all...and it's Canadian."
@invicta1313 I do agree to some extent. I liked some grunge music I certainly liked a lot of Pearl Jams music.But I do think that "Grunge" in itself was like a breath of fresh air when compared to the overproduced fluff from the 80s. But I also think grunge paved the way for a more organic rock sound such as Blues Traveler Counting Crows etc. Unfortunately the trend now is back to the overproduced fluff.
You all talkin about music being better back then and the music now being crap. stfu. There are good artists today you haven't heard because you are ignorant and choose not to listen.

I send this song out to my Ex-fiance who used to sing this song with and to me all the time, He has always stayed in my thoughts, Please get well John, Michele.
@MrEljiah No, the skinny guy jumping around with the mic is NOT John Popper. It's an allusion to the Wizard of Oz, like the rest of the video. The "real" band is behind the curtain performing, with the visible "band" lip-syncing just for show, like when the Wizard of Oz was behind a curtain pulling levers to manipulate an awesome, but phony, apparition. In both the movie and this video, Dorothy and her friends uncover the truth. It's a cool and fun allusion.
@lob287 Idk if I'd call it sarcasm. I suppose. I was hoping someone else would notice what I did without me pointing it out but it's too good to leave up in the air. If you watch the music video for the song by Counting Crows called Mr. Jones. The lead singer dances almost exactly like the "fake" in this video(and he has dreads just like this guy as I'm sure you know concidering you like the band too). I thought it was him but at the end there is a SLIGHT glimbs of the guys face.

All of you will think I’m crazy but you’re wrong
Because singing and writing I can be who really I am.
I’m so grateful because now I can smile, dreaming, screaming. (And I owe it all to music and to god)
Well, I made some covers and I just upload it to my channel and I’ll be grateful if you stop by my channel and check it out.

Because you needed to. You couldn't suffer along with the grunge solely because if you did you might not get up again.

Hello Everyone!
Singing is a way to express oneself emotions through a song
I'm a 17 years old who is trying to make my dream come true.
Music enhances our lives. Thanks God for it.
In the future, I'll make music because I want to show people my emotions through music that I love.
I have such huge dreams that i know and hope YouTube could make them come true if you are one of those people who took the time out to read this.
please help me make my dream come true by going to my channel.
THANKS

@hereitis69 The point of the vide is that Blues travler did not neccasarily fit the "look" at the time. So instead they had a kind of grunge looking band.

@hereitis69 nah, they show him playing backstage. like that other person said it's partly them acknowledging (and even celebrating) that john popper particularly didn't fit the mold of a 90's frontman. but it's also part of the Wizard of Oz theme, with the "cool" looking band being fake and the actual guy doing the singing being a disappointingly normal guy.

@SonOfGoForkYourself Yes that is exactly what the video is all about.I'm just surprised that you have to actually explain it to someone.

I loved grunge just as much as anyone in the 90's. But (and feel free to tell me if I'm alone here), did Blues Traveler seem to anyone else like a breath of fresh air after 4 or 5 years of listening to the depressing, mumbling, "ironic" stuff getting all the airplay when this debuted? I swear, I remember thinking when I heard this at 15 years old "Thank GOD...music is still allowed to be FUN. There's hope after all...and it's Canadian."

@invicta1313 I do agree to some extent. I liked some grunge music I certainly liked a lot of Pearl Jams music.But I do think that "Grunge" in itself was like a breath of fresh air when compared to the overproduced fluff from the 80s. But I also think grunge paved the way for a more organic rock sound such as Blues Traveler Counting Crows etc. Unfortunately the trend now is back to the overproduced fluff.

@invicta1313 I generally agree with you though I just wanted to add that Blues Traveler was formed in New Jersey, unless I'm misunderstanding you. :)

You all talkin about music being better back then and the music now being crap. stfu. There are good artists today you haven't heard because you are ignorant and choose not to listen.

The skinny guy jumping around with the mic is NOT John Popper...apparently it wasn't cool to be fat then either...messed up
MrEljiah 4 months ago
@MrEljiah No, the skinny guy jumping around with the mic is NOT John Popper. It's an allusion to the Wizard of Oz, like the rest of the video. The "real" band is behind the curtain performing, with the visible "band" lip-syncing just for show, like when the Wizard of Oz was behind a curtain pulling levers to manipulate an awesome, but phony, apparition. In both the movie and this video, Dorothy and her friends uncover the truth. It's a cool and fun allusion.

@lob287 Idk if I'd call it sarcasm. I suppose. I was hoping someone else would notice what I did without me pointing it out but it's too good to leave up in the air. If you watch the music video for the song by Counting Crows called Mr. Jones. The lead singer dances almost exactly like the "fake" in this video(and he has dreads just like this guy as I'm sure you know concidering you like the band too). I thought it was him but at the end there is a SLIGHT glimbs of the guys face.
