@ontop... --- i think the description --(yet) 'another song NOT on you tube. Nothing Special' is sarcasm about not finding the song ... not about the song :) just sayin
This song is literally face melting. It's a surprise it never made it onto an album but it's probably better that way. What a tune. Thanks for uploading this, and yes--THE best band of all time
The trumpet and sax in this song break my heart. This song is perfectly executed in order to showcase and blend them with the piano and his vocals in a way I've never seen in any other song. This isn't jazz, but it has a jazzy feeling. It's my favorite Counting Crows song. At about 4:30, this track hits a climax that is unforgettable.
Great song, I wonder why it wasn't on Recovering the Sattelites? I suppose when all your songs are as great as CCs even the ones that don't make it easily could have.
does anyone know how to get a hold of the disney concert hall version of this song. It was on youtube at one point but got removed and ive been searching for it again ever since. Great record.
I found this song one night after an argument with an ex girlfriend and fat blunt. I was sitting on the porch, hating life when the song came up after anna begins. I cried hard that night. the next morning i packed my bags and joined the navy. This song reminds me of the long bus ride to the base. A long bus ride.
hi fans, before this "hidden" song is anna begins... but mine has about 10 min of silence with pops and static. does any body else have this to? or is it just a bad disk? this song and round here alone make this a must buy. many other incredible versions too!!
Nope my first disc I think had a bit of a delay then started playing this song, but I ran across a friend who had the same disc and apparently she decided to switch out my good 1 for hers so O well. At least we know there are 2 the same way - The funny thing is I thought I had messed it up til now.
@ontopofthegame03 One of the Best Bands-Damn F'ing right, if Bob Dylan doesn't count as a band then they ARE the best, but one of their Best Songs?-ah, no not really. They have too strong a catalog. However it would be a lot of other bands best song. The piano+brass arrangement is incredible, but besides the chorus &"Something 'bout an Angel that just kills me. I keep hopin' somethin will.." it really is kind of mediocre from Duritz's lyrical standpoint; it's almost as if he didn't finish it.
I love this song, i'm a huge counting crows fan and i love jazz crossovers. This is my favourite song of all time, can't believe you put "Nothing Special" on the description!!
