WOW Those vocals are killer!!! The guitar solo in the original version is still in my top 2 (it's really number 1 though) solos of all time. I learned and still play it the best I can to this day! What a great song and once I found out what it was about (years ago) it truly hit home.
its so good to see that ONE, lead singer of that era, SOMEHOW escaped the "lead singers" disease,, Mr. Martin obviously tried to channel the PASSION FOR MUSIC IN general that his friend Andrew Wood, Had! what a tribute, what passion, & to see that he's pretty much still got it 20+ years later!!! WOW!!!
WOW!!! I´ve been a huge fan of Candlebox and Kevin Martins voice since I can remember, and I don't remember what day it was, not even the year, but I still remember clearly the moment when I heard them for thr first time and I fell in love with their music!
holy shit this brought back some memories and Kevin's voice is actually better than when they debuted..so awesome he was able to preserve his voice like he did..wow
Talent that was carefully placed on this soul. He carries it with grace and elegance. Like an eagle that soars while the wind brushes through its face as if it will never land.
I just went to one of their concerts last year 2019 and let me tell you, they still have it. It is now one of my husband and my favorite memories, standing there swaying and singing along. Got the goosebumps just listening and recalling it.
My baby brother, Luke died on 4/4/14. This Tuesday is the 3 year "anniversary." (I don't like using the word anniversary) it's so much more used for celebratory annual dates. Either way, Luke was 27 years old when he passed. He was a Staff Sergeant in the United States Army. He was a veteran of the Iraqi and Afghanistan wars. He spent over 2 years of his young life over seas, in extremely hostile countries. He was involved in daily feild assignments and came home to us, alive but not well. Luke was a changed man. Man...27 years old and his eyes had seen things that no one his age should ever be exposed to. We lost Luke to what is know as PTSD. He died in his bathroom home safe in Pennsylvania. He had just gotten home from his appointment with the VA Hospital (Veteran Affairs). I apologise for rambling on and on but this song.... I am able to feel Luke next to me every time I listen to it. Thank you Candlebox! If you only knew how important you are to us! Thanks again, Ooooooh Raaaaaaah!!
I lost my sweet baby girl 3 years ago. Tomorrow would be her 25th birthday. I can’t even believe how ripped up I am. It’s so awful. I have to turn this song off. Her mom and I loved this song. One of the greatest songs OF ALL TIME!
Billy Fischer you know there are different continents next to North America right? Haha. I’m from the Netherlands and I think they only tour through the States Which Saddens me deeply!
Man.. Loves these guys.. This is music..I remember those parties. My friends would beg me to cover this and I would gladly oblige over and over until my voice went out lol.. By far one of my favorite bands to listen to and cover.
Glad I stumbled on this. Great tune, I think he sounds great in it. Takes me back, that alone feels weird to say, didn't this song get released like, 5 years ago. LOL.
EleKtra I certainly am mid forties but I got to see "♪♫ALL THE GOOD BANDS♫♪" ! Including following the Grateful Dead and Sammy Hagar for many years. Life TRULY was a WONDERFUL JOURNEY/JOY RIDE for me in the late 70's, all of the 80's, the entire 90's, and the beginning of this century! I miss having so many great Summer Jams to attend and camp out for the entire weekends! :D I live in Eugene, Oregon area where they have cut out MUCHO LIVE SHOWS. We have to drive 2 1/2 hrs to Portland Oregon or across the River to Washington when we HAVE TO, or MUST see a specific performance. That is why I am so grateful that I had full access in my younger years! ♪♫♪ROCK ON♪♫♪
This guy sounds awesome for being 20 years older. Of course he's not going to sound like he did when he was twenty-something. This blows away any of the crap that's being growled or autotuned today. Lets see some of today's "singers" duplicate their recordings live, in the morning on a radio show to nothing but acoustic guitars.
TOTALLY AWESOME!! FUNNY GOSH LIKE 8 YRS AGO now😊. Well my ex won tickets on radio to candlebox playing at the CHANCE IN POUKEEPSIE. AWESOME 😎 RIGHT WE lived like 4 blo away 😊! Anyway I was not sober then, but they hit my spirit like never before,Now that's when i
I think really what makes the song great in the '80s version you really get the sense of loss and the vocals are really sharp and jagged Raw and the lyrics are incredible
20 years later and that dude still has a set of pipes that kick ass
Just saw him last month. He hasn't lost a thing. He's still hitting ALL of those high notes. It was pretty damn impressive.
Supe version!. My wife and I loved Candlebox. She passed away 2 years ago>Hoping I can see them live
Wow. Thank you. My wife passed away in 2021. She would have loved this!!
Sorry for your loss Bro
i used to play this song over and over while trying to sleep.......damn i miss those days and i miss the girl too...........
sponklong2007: The one from the music video?
sorry for your loss
Same for me Sean. 20 years still on my mind every time I play this song/album
I will never forget hearing far behind when they did it on David Letterman years ago.
Without a doubt, one of the best bands ever.
Beautiful! I just close my eyes and let it take me away.
me 2 nice to see someone loves the music like i do acoustic is so great
Where do you go?
theoneswhowalkaway - wherever my mind wants to take me. Memories.
This song breaks my heart... it was me and my fathers favorite song...he died in April now im left here with this song
Sorry for your loss!
Oh please
Love candlebox ! His voice is amazing!
Beyond Amazing the Best....
1991 - 2022

+Johnny Ballinger Don't forget Vaden Todd Lewis of The Toadies. He still sounds great too
WOW!!! I´ve been a huge fan of Candlebox and Kevin Martins voice since I can remember, and I don't remember what day it was, not even the year, but I still remember clearly the moment when I heard them for thr first time and I fell in love with their music!
some things never leave you...
Yep, same 1994
holy shit this brought back some memories and Kevin's voice is actually better than when they debuted..so awesome he was able to preserve his voice like he did..wow
I love candlebox

That's great!!!. Good music stays in your heart and soul

He def still has it. Has improved in my opinion. Takes me back to a better time... sing it Kevin..
still a timeless song to this day. thanks for posting
Great singer..... So much power in his voice.... hits every note.... crisp and clean....
Kevin Martin is a very nice and humble dude. I was a pleasure to get to meet him.

sorry for your loss. and thanks to your brother for his service and his courage.
Oohs Raaah! I hope it's getting easier for you and his family.
Thank you for sharing about Luke I am so very sorry for your loss, sending you peace and strength.
I’m sorry for your loss. That must be awful. Thank you for sharing your story. It is a truly beautiful song and I hope it gives you some comfort.
And why are ruining this video with some story. Freakin annoying
i love this band. so underated
trey burke ♪♫♪AMEN♪♫♪
Very under rated
trey burke I agree! Although this is not my favorite version. There is something to be said about the cadence of popular versions.
I really wish Kev would have a chat with The Soundgarden boys. He's probably the only one that would do justice to C.C.
It age’s like fine wine. Atta boy guys.
decades later, still has the voice, still can hit the high notes. Excellent version!
That damn sand-bagger. Unreal voice 20 years later...
I saw these guys at the mad monk in wilmington north Carolina...awesome show.
Always loved this guy's pipes! He still sounds Awesome!
It is simply impossible to sing like this . What a fucking band man . Long live !
When the vocals clearly overwhelm the entire band.
Unreal. New album pls
Agree. This song still moves my heart and sounds awesome. Thank you
I have seen them many times over the years and they are still amazing.
This rocked back in the day.This is good too
Still one of my all time favorite bands. You never hear singers like this anymore.
Of course the original IS WHAT it IS! But this is by far the best live rendition I've seen...Yes...Brilliant! Blessings!
One of my favourite songs
I lost my sweet baby girl 3 years ago. Tomorrow would be her 25th birthday. I can’t even believe how ripped up I am. It’s so awful. I have to turn this song off. Her mom and I loved this song. One of the greatest songs OF ALL TIME!
Sorry for your loss brother
@@hond33zyThanks my man! That means a lot that you responded!
Just saw their acoustic show in Phx last night, WOW, they still have it!! whatta great show.
This was such an awesome video. I got to see them play in Madison, WI like 7 years ago. He still hasn't lost his voice.
I'm still wanting to see them after 20yrs :(
Kristi Wilson there touring right now! playing acoustic in PA and I'm not going to miss it
Billy Fischer you know there are different continents next to North America right? Haha. I’m from the Netherlands and I think they only tour through the States Which Saddens me deeply!
His voice hasn't change a bit..Always loved this band
Thanks for the upload! It's always great to hear about the all too often forgotten Andrew Wood...
Still sound great. Thank you for the music and the memories guys. ❤✌
Love this fucking song hit me through some tough years after I left New York
ABSOLUTELY beautiful...love love love this song and the acoustic version is the best.
Man.. Loves these guys.. This is music..I remember those parties. My friends would beg me to cover this and I would gladly oblige over and over until my voice went out lol.. By far one of my favorite bands to listen to and cover.
Absolutely beautiful 😊
WOW he sounds great and the guitar support, perfect.
I think Candlebox is so great,what a voice
Beautiful song done beautifully.
Lost my best friend of 30+ years this past January. Can't hear this song without thinking about him 😢😢
Glad I stumbled on this. Great tune, I think he sounds great in it. Takes me back, that alone feels weird to say, didn't this song get released like, 5 years ago. LOL.

Best Version yet! Just focussing on the music/song quality and it's just Amazing!
Awesome voice Kevin, sounds better than ever. 💖 Candlebox

dec.2016 love this song still. love yall guys
Amazing voice no room for haters
that's raw and awesome, as authentic as something can be
Love this
Love Kevins voice still and always 🖤🤘🏻
I have never seen this guy perform badly. What a bad ass
still member the lettmen version and they sound just as awsome now
Goosebumps major.
Omg his voice sounds better now than back in the day. So much impress!
BEAUTIFUL
After all these years he still has it. Saying he's lost it is total BS. Suckers voice is like silk.
I saw them in 2005 and his voice was the best thing I have ever heard, it got better with age
Cuz he didn't use drugs to ruin it
Why always the drug thing they where all great
Still rocking it!!
so much haters, i thought this was awesome for an acoustic version of a heavy rock song
people suck because theyre miserable, this rocks i agree
F ck the haters. This is cool
Haters ... hate their selfs when they look at the mirror & hear their self.
This song is ROCK n ROLL.
Just kidding ❤️🤘❤️ the vocals are insane incredible
Just kidding the vocals are insane they're awesome🤘🤘🤘
What great atmosphere in that room...great acoustic jam, great scenery outside.
Sounds good live
Best version ever!
What I would give to have have been sitting in that studio.
Saw them live in Shreveport on the 20th anniversary tour. Was amazing.
Beautiful voice ❤️
Still doing that damn thing! Sounds great♡♡♡
Awesome...brings back memories
i love these guys! my old license plate was "candlbx" still have it somewhere !
Such a powerful voice.
This song is so deep. Hits close to home.
Yes, the song DEEPs. But it CUTs DEEP. That's close !
Yes it does :
WHAT A VOICE!!!
This guy sounds awesome for being 20 years older. Of course he's not going to sound like he did when he was twenty-something. This blows away any of the crap that's being growled or autotuned today.

blah blah blah same thing always. people put more effort in writing this kind of bs than actually looking for new music to enjoy
Scott Weiland did that on Howard Stern. He was an awesome front man.
I do like Candlebox!!!
Actually he sounds a little better than he did back in the day 😂
@@gc8972b That's a full of s*it statement.
Nice !!!
Best version ever
Love love love candlebox!!!
Groovy, awesome stuff !
Kevin is an amazing singer still.
Yes that he is!!!
Always was and will be beautiful
Amazing ❤
TOTALLY AWESOME!!
FUNNY GOSH LIKE 8 YRS AGO now😊. Well my ex won tickets on radio to candlebox playing at the CHANCE IN POUKEEPSIE. AWESOME 😎 RIGHT WE lived like 4 blo away 😊! Anyway I was not sober then, but they hit my spirit like never before,Now that's when i
❤you Lord
I will finish story later today 🙂
I think really what makes the song great in the '80s version you really get the sense of loss and the vocals are really sharp and jagged Raw and the lyrics are incredible
1993.
This is music, this is talent...
Friggin Amazing!!!!!!!
Great voice love it
