    Private idaho was my east of eden

  • Still do I miss him, and love him...

  • My dear River...

    I love you more than nothing... =(

    they are already almost 18 years without you and still there are people who loves you <3

    RIP Rive Jude Phoenix

  • He was a legend. R.I.P. River(: We all miss you!

  • :( my beautiful River Jude....died when I was eighteen on my sisters birthday....cried many tears...I named my beautiful son after him

  • I hate how he died the year I was born.. about 2 months before, actually. :(

    I wish I could've met him... :/

    R.I.P.

  • where can i download the song? thanks! :)

  • @miamore1606 Grant Lee Buffalo - "Halloween". I just discovered it through this clip as well.

  • a wonderful vid and a wonderful song for a wonderful man... i miss you River

  • We've seen the hottest actors or the most good looking ones but River...he's not just a face. He encompasses good looks and talent. He's got a beautiful soul. That's what makes him stand out from the rest. :)

    RIP River

  • I'm more of a Leonardo DiCaprio fan but it's something about River's story that made me want to learn about him. I first heard about him in 2008 or 9 and I felt like he was an interesting character. And this song with the pictures is great. BRAVO!

  • 1:16 was the last picture he took. he dyed his hair for interview with a vampire. he was a fantastic actor

  • River Jude Phoenix , He was from Jewish Decent !!!

    No doubt one of the most beautifull boys ever existed....

    May He R.I.P !!!

  • I cried so hard watching this, I am so sorry he passed so young. What a beautiful man. One of our generations icons lost to the burning underbelly of the 1990s. So very sad.

  • I miss you River and i will never forget you <3 RIP Rio<3

  • I spend my hallween by watching river phoenix movies... (: RIP River

  • UNTIL NOW.....

  • CHECK OUT MY TRIBUTE TO HIM TRUST ME YOUR GONNA LIKE IT

  • He's my man crush lol. No homo. but Seriously he had alot to offer to this world. He's a legend.

  • god, his death makes me so so sad....of course i didn't know him but I sense that he was a genuinely good-hearted human being who unfortunately fell prey to drugs...

  • I love you so much River.

  • Miss you River!!!

  • You were like my own James Byron Dean, Private Idaho was my East of Eden...nice one..:)

  • miss u rio but yr spirit is STRONG

  • My friend you still are around me everyday. :)

  • 17 years.... And I'm a little sad today.

  • Oh no it is almost River's death anniversary on Halloween I am very very sad.This really sucks because Halloween is my favorite holiday too.I miss River he is so precious.

  • Why'd this beautiful creature have to leave us?

  • Why do the good die young? So talented with his whole life ahead of him! This man would have done so much for the world we live in today. Music, acting, and no telling what else! He was positive, despite a hard childhood, his talent shined through it all...

  • @msmorleigh it was probably the drugs so sad.I feel like my heart has been torn into a million pieces missing river so much too.

  • I saw a picture where River has dark hair and he is smoking. He looks awful on that like swollen, is it ment to look like that or is it the drugs. My God I cant see that. Miss River so much, such an angel.

  • Very nice song, first time hearing it. He did remind me a little of James Dean, his expressions, acting and they both died young. It makes you wonder what he would have accomplished if he was still here.

  • he would have turned 40 this year...:(

    rip river

  • I am crying watching this, River was so special, you can appreciate his work now because it is timeless and unique, but I remember when he was still in this world and just how he seemed to glow. I miss him even though I did not know him. Leonardo DiCaprio owes his rise to stardom to River cuz he was referred to as a River Phoenix wanna be, and when River died thats when Leo got lots of film offers. No one can EVER replace River though. He was a true original.

  • best tribute ive ever seen, :)

    RIP Rio

  • @KikiRikiBANANA I was just reading your comment and for some reason it reminded me of a long time ago at work one day when this guy who actually looked like River and this girl walked up to me and asked for a dollar to get home.They seemed so nice but sad and lost so I gave it to them after they seemed happy I guess because they could get home.I don't know whatever happened to them after that.I hope you don't mind me sharing it's just when you said River I don't know why I thought of that.

  • Whenever I watch videos of him, I just think to myself, "I wish I met someone half the man that he was." And I truly mean that. What a beautiful man on the inside and out. It's so sad that we'll never see that gorgeous face on the big screen again. Much love, River.

  • What a fuckin waste !!! Missed always!!

  • Man River is hypnotizing I'm in a daze trippy!He is just too freakin gorgeous I'm sorry.I like this video but this is just cruel and unusual punishment. Oh River why did you have to go why uggggghhhhh!!!!Damn I miss him!It has been 17 years and the world is still crying over our beloved River.I cry me a River everyday.He has a very strong presence spirit.I love River!!He will be forever in our hearts.

  • RIP River. Like everyone else, i feel like i am missing a best friend. wtf. and @blahobla, i saw that picture too, fucking sad. kinda like he's sleeping but never gonna wake up. miss you riv.

  • he is smart and handsome

  • I didn't even know this song was about him ... great song, great actor

  • Rivers face was perfect!!!He was so gorgeous and talented!!!I miss him so much!No one like you my baby...:((

  • ooowh i would have liked to see so much more of him it`s so sad he had to go D: rip river

  • he was not NOT NOT ugly by any means he was one of the most attractive men i've ever seen in my life this vid is for river fans who honor him and respect him in his death....i love you river rip my baby<333

  • U are blind.

  • To Vitanova999

  • his nose is beautiful. Its perfect.

  • @StandByMefan08 he has that pixie peter pan nose that michael jackson wanted. i think that slope like nose looks kinda cool :)

  • wtf....he was no way ugly

  • beautiful video <3

  • there are alot of people who have died to early and he was one of them...sad sad story

  • He was so beautiful, man :( That's so sad .. I hate that he died

  • I agree there are others that are bad they should have died instead!!! don't you agree?

  • I hate that River died ): If he hadn't passed away, i would want to meet him so bad. It's not fair he didn't get second chance. He was so talented ):

  • This song is just, incredible. I cannot even explain the feeling I get when I listen to it and see his photos and feel his energy. I think he was truly a beautiful person; I feel deeply sorry that he resorted to drugs and they ended his life. I feel like he's the kind of person that all of us sensitive beings have inside of us. We're too sensitive for our own good and feel everything in the world; all of its ugliness too.

  • Girls and...BOYS love RIVER ! He is a GAY ICON ! And that's a good thing . Such a beautiful boy can be loved by every positive feelings ! ;) Thanks GRANT LEE BUFFALO for this wonderful song !

  • you are right.. it doesn`t matter who you are, where you come from, wich gender you love or wich colour your skin has. love exists to be shared with others.

  • but River wasnt gay..?

  • no he wasn`t.

  • Why is he a gay-icon then?

  • coz his role in my own private idaho was a gay street hustler.

  • @blahobla he's a gay icon because lesbians dressed like him , they also dressed like james dean and he was a gay icon. Judy garland and cher are gay icons but they weren't gay , gay men just like to dress up as them and find them iconic. Even leonardo dicaprio is listed as a gay icon but he isnt gay , i really don't fully get the idea of gay icons O,O

  • @satanknight14

    Uh okey, wierd.

  • river phoenix wasnt gay

  • @garchoom he wasnt fucking gay

  • RIP River. x

  • i like the song...:)

  • 16 years.

    The sun didnt heal the scar.

  • For River 16 years without you man,

    "Hit me like a stone when i heard you'd passed on Halloween"

  • great vid great song, what's the name of the song

  • Halloween, by Grant Lee Buffalo. Check out "Storm Hymnal"; you'll find it there.

  • I seen a documentary about River Phoenix. They showed him on the set of his last movie. The actress he was working with on set was giving him a hard time. And he admired her so much. I think it really brought him down! They left the camera running at the end of the scene, It showed him just standing there for a few seconds on his own, looking down, in dim light. The producers said looking back on the footage, it was an eerily. haunting scene. Sad, that he left so young!

  • wow, I had never heard that song until today....and am a great Buffalo fan !...excellent ! very moving...guess it's a b-side?

  • Almost 16 years now,always missed R.I.P,Great song what a tribute to him!!

  • you know when i heard of River Phoenix i had no idea he was dead ever since i have cried each day sometimes i try to forget about him but its just to hard i wish i could have met him what i have learned about him through interviews seem pretty cool i also learned he hated interviews

  • The picture of River lying dead in his casket will haunt me forever and Joaquin's 911 call was just heartbreaking. River was a beautiful beautiful boy. It's been almost 16 years. I can't believe it. I hope he is happy where ever he is and he's in a better place.RIP River xxx Love Always xxx

  • you saw his body??where?? i'd like to not stumble upon it..it'd be too much for me.

  • Yes. It's on the internet. It has been printed in national enquirer magazine a few times since his death. Someone broke into the funeral home where he was being kept and took a picture of him. Don't look at it. It made me ill.

  • now you have me all curious to see , what did he look like? did they not do a good job on him?i'm guessing no if you say you felt ill.

  • He looked pale. His hair was black and cut short. It didn't look like him.

  • why was his hair black? did he dye it before he died or was that his natural color , so they changed it back? it sounds horribly sad..

  • He dyed his hair for a film called Dark Blood. It was 3 weeks away from completion when he died. The film was never released.

  • @satanknight14

    yeah, you DONT want to see it. I was just looking at photos of him on google. And that one came up, I didnt look like him and I got curious... When I saw it I started crying, he looks so pale and he has bruises in the face. The hair is short and black (He cut it and dyed it for Dark Blood). He has one of his favorite shirt on (I think i read that somewhere). It really doesnt look like him.

  • Oh no, when did u find out about River's death? Can't belive u didn't know. I remember the news bulletin. Can't believe's it's been 16 years next weekend.

  • Rio I miss u so much!! Great video!! ;)

  • lol, i love the part where he says, "You were like my own James Byron Dean. Private Idaho was my East of Eden." totally my fav. lines from this song ;] R.I.P.

  • i dont understand why he had to go well before his! why do the good and young leave so soon. were left with cruel people still alive! i miss u river!

  • For those people saying the people who honor him and treasure him are the fans he hated, well your obviously not a fan. That's what a fan is.. Falling head over heals for a person for their performances, looks, and personality. Idots.

  • wOW era tan guapo!!

  • i miss you. x

  • Thank you so much! R.I.P. River God rest your soul<3

  • It's sad, but I think River Phoenix did really well, he's in James Dean country, he left a good looking corpse- better really, he wasn't mangled in a Porsche. He was pretty, but why idealize him? Are people really knowable?

  • @ ElinaBana: I really don't believe that River Phoenix hates people who honor his memory.

  • River was so nice when i met him.. this is so sweet!!! There was NO HATE in Rivers heart, only love!!!Peace and love, Colleen

  • what did he say aww i wish i met him he seemed very sweet dang i wish hed never died he was suck a beautiful person you actually lucky you got to meet him because he died so young i wonder wat he said to you i wish that was me

  • hi karligorman3... i met river when his band played wayyy back in 1989...river approached me and asked me my name and asked me why i was sitting alone ... he told me to have a good time and told me to go to another show.. he was an angel. i was so shy. he was / is most beautiful man i ever saw!!!! I think it was fate we crossed paths, he is all my <3 PEACE colleen phoenixxoooo

  • really? i wish i met him, you're soo lucky!

  • Who wants to be crayons in the next Halloween?

  • in river's childhood days he looks alot like those twins from " suite life of zac and cody" , dylan and cole sprouse maybe in the future one of them could play him in a biopic..

  • watching him makes me feel sad, he was way too young to die, and of course beautiful and talented

  • i know me to he was so beautiful i was wathing my own p;rivate idaho last night and it made me sad but yeah he was to young to die i dont know wat i would of done if i seen him die i would be so depressed

  • amaizing

    no words for it

  • relay well done ace song 2

    xxxxxx

  • nice song for river. thanks for remembering river... he has the most beautiful & unique face i have ever seen and will ever see... and what a sweet soul he also possessed.

  • Everytime I saw the vid and listening to the song I'm so sad. He was such a great and talented actor, I miss him so much and I still love him. He was so beautiful. His eyes were so wise. River, you are one in a million. I really love you forever!

    Wonderful vid, great song!

  • he reminds me of someone....*looks closer* >.> johnny depp mixed with leo dicaprio O_O

  • amazing song for river :) !!

  • Love the song.......x

  • I adore this song, thanks for posting the vid <3

  • he's BEAUTIFUL!!!!! its true

  • it will never ever be possible to put River into words. Id say absolutely amazing, but it doesnt even come close. RIP River, you were taken too early <3333

  • You couldn't have said it any better. No person can, like you said. T

  • Why....

  • And I didn´t know this song...and I like it!

  • I love River...and I love this video!Really nice!

  • I know,,,I totally get this hollow feeling when I see him and hear songs about him and dedicated to him even though I didn't know him and here I thought I was weird but apparantly I'm not the only one...it probably his life story and how they talk about him being such a good guy and all....

  • he looks hot at 0:17

  • Hell yeah, although he usually look hot like.. always :p

  • I love this song, it's great! River, you're my James Dean. See you in my dreams...

  • I love this video :), nice song..River :'(.. I should turn back to my home essays and I'm watching videos..again.. :D

  • Not only was he a great actor but he was a great person in life. I feel empty everytime i think of him. God bless River

  • It's strange, but I feel like I lost something, and of course I didn't even know him.

  • far too much for his time

    rip

  • Great song and nice Video.

    It is such a shame, that he died so young.

  • who is that girl with him at 2:05, the girl that was also in the goonies? what movie what that?

  • Yes, that's Martha Plimpton. She and River were in the movie 'Running on empty' together. She was also his girlfriend at the time.

  • was this song written especially for him because he died on halloween(creepy)right??? and i here 23 , which was his age and i think i heard his name..River

  • we'll all miss you forever, my beautiful River...

  • wow martha and river are soo youngg at 1:34[=

    i miss you</3

  • :(

    Era tan pero tan lindo :(

  • he was so beautiful

    why did he have to die so young?

    R.I.P my angel

    I'll remember you forever River

  • Great video! I miss him so much.

  • Pow, Essa música do grant lee buffalos eh mágica! Muito som!Uhuuuuuuuuu!

  • I miss u River...

  • i loved your video! :) i will never forget river, he was the best actor ever!

  • Such a shame... I remember him for Stand by me and I also like The thing called love a lot and there's a few more I still have to see but there was no doubt about his talent. You must have felt for him what I'm Still feeling for Heath Ledger and will continue to feel, I think with Heath is worse though in a way, He didn't really choose it but it is a shame about both... He made a stupid mistake and unfortunately couldn't live to learn from it...

    R.I.P River

  • actuallyyy no...river didnt choose to die. in a biography about him it was said that he didnt want to die but he was under so much stress from the hype of hollywood and he needed a release and thats the same thing that happened to heath ledger too.

  • I am not saying he wanted to die, I meant that he was taking drugs. And it was nothing like Heath Ledger's cause Heath had an accidental death because of the mix of the sleeping pills and anti-depresants he was taking. Nothing alike to River who chose to drink the stuff that was given to him or whatever, But I did watch the E True Hollywood story and it's true what someone said, In that state that he was on if a "friend" had told u drink this you'll feel amazing anyone could have took it so yeah

  • It's a shame either way and he was a great actor... But like Heath said When I die, My movies will live on forever... And so will River's, Like they have till now and there's always going to be people missing him. So may he and Heath Rest in Peace...

  • almost 15 years we lived without him? And he's still loved and missed. A great tribute.

  • to answer your qussion yukako21 river phoenix died almost 15 years ago from drug overdoes

    RIP river my soulfriend RIP 1970-1993

  • THATS MAYBE STUPID QUESTIONS..but why is he gone?

  • great video..i love you,riv!

  • I miss him so much.

    What a great video!

    Whats the name of the song?

  • i still have a crush on you, River!

  • 3:53 is my wallpaper on my cell phonee:)

  • i love you river...

  • i love river for wayyy more than his looks but i just wanted to point out he has the perfect little slopped nose. ppl pay so much for that nose. river your are so beautiul in more ways anyone can imagine. we love you and miss you. i'll see you in heaven some day baby

  • I miss you Rivie..

    great video!

  • luv the video!! and the pics.......

  • his eyes were beutiful so was his face man everything was about him what a shame...

  • Really Really great slideshow!! Great Job!! He was soooooooooooo hooooot!!!

  • As a growing actor, I really look up to River. He was amazing in every single way. He looked like a nice person, he was obviously an animal lover, and he was a great actor. He is the ONLY man I have ever cried over. When I look at a picture of him, I get chills down my spine. Even though River is gone, I still feel him on this earth. I love you River Phoenix, R.I.P, you will always be my inspiration <3

  • what you wrote was so beautiful. b/c i'm going thru the same thing. and its crazy b/c river died the day i was supposed to be born but i came 2 days late. he inspires me to do some many positive things like acting.

  • I miss you River!!!!! Beautiful song.

    I love Grant Lee Buffalo

  • Its time for this world today, to bring Rivers plans to life Again... its getting more and more an issue, so lets make his work and passion about environment and vegetarians more important than ever!!! Who`s going to stand by me?

    (i`m already busy doing it on my own...)
