@Sean Dana How about their Anthology CD that features songs from their deleted '80's albums like Buzz Factory and Invisible Lantern. The progression from "Barriers" to the final four or five tracks shows their progression from goofy garage band to the brink of the grunge big leagues.
@@josuearnold9652 Technically yes. But if so then The Melvins and Nirvana weren't Seattle bands either. They were from Aberdeen and the Gray's Harbor area. Beat Happening wouldn't have been a Seattle band either. They were from Olympia.
With the help from Mark Lanegans book 'Sing backwards and weep' im now 1 year clean.....if anyone knows,see,'s or hears from him....thank him, truely from the bottom of my heart....Mark, you literally saved my life....
Came here after learning about the news, man this really hits hard since Sweet Oblivion was one of the albums that helped me during one really hard time in my life, and all of Mark's work with QOTSA being an all time favorite for me, Dollar Bill remains as my favorite song from them Rest in Peace Mark, we will always love you
I think, unfortunately, because none of them publicly struggled with addiction, nor did their lyrics invoke the same teen angst as the other bands of the time. The fact Screaming Trees was really conveying a deeper and more universally relatable adult insight to life, is actually what kept them from selling more. Kids want simple sadness that doesn't require much thought...that's what sells
@@llmm1913 But he didn't get the media attention over it the way Layne and Kurt Cobain did. Like it or not, that drove as much interest in AIC and Nirvana as their music did
Torn like an old dollar bill Girl let them say what they will That no one should hurt you And that's all I seem to do That no one should desert you And that's all I seem to do I got to tell you, goodbye mama We've taken this too far Been trying to tell you what's going on Trying to make it easy on you Trying to make it better Make it easier on you It's all I came to do It's all I came to do Now I'm down in the light And I must be dreaming it 'Cause I see clearly, I see angels here Bringing something to me, Mother Mercy I told a lie, I didn't mean it Goodbye mama, I've taken this too far Been gone a while Been gone a long way, oh yeah I don't want to hurt you It's all I seem to do Don't want to desert you It's all I seem to do I got to tell you, goodbye mama I've taken this too far Been down a while Been down a long way Trying to make it easy on you Trying to make it better Make it easier on you It's all I came to do It's all I came to do It's all I came to do That's all, been down a long Been down a long, long way Torn like an old dollar bill Screaming Trees Dollar Bill :)
Can’t believe the news. You have no idea how much you influenced my life. I love you Mark, rest in peace. Gonna watch from the balcony, sing backwards and weep🖤
I was in 10th grade when the whole grunge thing happened and rock music became king again. The Trees have a special place that none of my other favorite bands never have. I like all the old stuff...doors, hendrix, zep, fleet, beatles, stones and theres STP, Chains, Trees, N and some hate PJ for some reason yet they got their place in my heart too. Never forget the first time I heard "alive" on a youth convention in the mountains w the unitarian church. The trees make me think of how a dream I had recently made me feel....one parent was going one way and the other was going the other and I had to choose which one I wanted to be with....but I didn't want to choose I was just a kid. Then I'm not a kid anymore, I'm somewhere I can smell that smell you smell by railroad tracks and I'm just walking the tracks looking down wishing I could just back to where it all went wrong. Its Autumn and you can see into other people's houses as dusk brings on the night, families are together people seem happy..yet I feel as far removed from people as stars must seem to families. Life goes on, people die alone watching tv. Days are shelter to feather a nest as people make sure they have retirement funds and agreeable smiles....they told me once I wasn't agreeable, yet I kept my mouth shut, still doing the math on that one! The wind is blowing, I'm cold but the smell of leaves is bittersweet, sweet but old enough to know the truth. The truth is cold....some boys never get to hold a girl's hand or have a father, some become crazy but make it out alive in prison and some only smile where the others aren't so they don't have to feel at all when in the presence of the insane.....happy faces.
I know that Nearly Lost You was the big hit off this album, but Dollar Bill is the best song on the album and dare I say, one of the best ever? Yeah, it's that good.
I liked it, but i can understand why it's underrated. It's because their sound is too soft and mellow in comparison with all the other bands from the grunge movement. Exemple gratia: Nirvana sound was kind of punk rock; AIC, hard rock; Soundgarden,, metal and so on. Their sound(Screamng Trees) is cute, even radio-friendly, caress my ears, but it's not heavy enough to call atention.
If you like the lead singer, whose name is Mark Lanegan, check out the band Mad Season. They are a 90's super group whose lead singer is Layne Staley from AIC in most songs, but Mark Lanegan sings on a couple of their songs, such as one called Long Gone Day. Check 'em out!
TheBigsis35: Also, check out what he's done with his solo career over the years that've passed since Trees broke-up decades ago -- "Hawk" (a collaboration album with Belle & Sebastian's Isobel Campbell is among my favorite things he's done over that interval)
Simply put, this is the most underrated band of all time. I grew up in the early to mid 90s and for the life of me, I cannot understand why they werent absolutely huge. Phenomenal band.
Why is it a shame? That these little gems aren't well known is what makes them special to people like us.. These songs attract a certain kind of person. If it was popular mass market it wouldn't be the same.
Van told me once about writing this song. I wish I could remember if they were driving to Ellensburg or from Ellensburg but it was late at night and they wrote this in the car while driving. RIP Van
Rest In Peace Mark Lanegan This song got me through some rough times in my life and was always a favorite. Thanks for leaving a legacy of great music during your time on earth.
RIP the two members of Screaming Trees Mark Lanegan (November 25, 1964 - February 22, 2022), aged 57 Van Conner (March 17, 1967 - January 17, 2023), aged 55 You both will always be remembered as legends.
"torn like an old dollar bill" those words where the first thing I thought of when I heard the news about Mark....Rest In Peace Mark thanks for helping me get through my teens while a beautiful amazing voice. Man 2022 is really taking some good ones. Betty white. Bob saget. Now mark.
so fuckin full of soul and feeling. i cant help but get into this music. simply amazing. just gotta sit back, close your eyes and take it in people. absorb the greatness. just cant find music like this these days.
R.I.P Mark Lanegan... Sad indeed that we should lose another great songwriter, vocalist/musician. One of my all-time favorite songs and one that will surely immortalize your amazing talent and being... From Australia, condolences to your family and friends.
Been listening to the trees for almost thirty years now. SOOOOOO underrated!!! R.I.P Mr. Lanedan. Thank you for the music that inspired many. You will be missed.❤🎵🎸
Was part of the crew at Big Day Out saw this band lead singer sat on a chair with a broken leg and a bottle jeager what a show!!!! Loved them ever since
Revisiting this in the wake of willingly subjecting myself to Lanegan's memoir, I'm still in awe of this video. There's so much gorgeous natural hair in this video - in this band, I can't even.
RIP Van Conner. The 'Trees magic was in part that rhythm section, and you held it together wonderfully. Sad to say half of this band has left us...
He was one of the best friends I ever had! I'll carry him with me always
Too many from the best part of my life are leaving us way too soon. RIP Van and Mark!!!
Oh, no. Van, too? RIP Mark and Van. Such a great band, amazing songs.
When he smacked Liam in hot head with his bass I laughed lol that memoir was something else
@@freedom_rock18Liam is a total douche
Rest In Peace, Mark Lanegan. Your voice will be missed.
RIP mark lanegan

WHAT?!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
@@shipped_my_pants_3000 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! WHAT!!?
I don’t understand why this band wasn’t more popular. I don’t get it.
Too ahead of their time
My personal favorite. Always got me teary eyed. Screaming trees was so underrated. R.I.P Mark Lanegan.
Agreed. But his album The Winding Sheet, especially Museum, always tears me up
Me too ..every time
Yes very underrated.
Gone is one of the coolest voices of his era and rock music in general... RIP Mark.
Definitely an underrated band. One of the best grunge bands
RIP Van Conner. Thanks for this perfect song.
Came here just to reminisce...this just happen?
R.i.p. mark....you were incredible
The most underated band of the grunge era. I put them in the top 5 Seattle bands of all time.
@Sean Dana How about their Anthology CD that features songs from their deleted '80's albums like Buzz Factory and Invisible Lantern. The progression from "Barriers" to the final four or five tracks shows their progression from goofy garage band to the brink of the grunge big leagues.

Alice First and them next..for sure!
I think so!
With the help from Mark Lanegans book 'Sing backwards and weep' im now 1 year clean.....if anyone knows,see,'s or hears from him....thank him, truely from the bottom of my heart....Mark, you literally saved my life....

Peace all xx
Rest in peace Mark. You'll rock on forever!🤘
Such sad news. Another legend gone far too soon.
Jimmy Page really

Sunday afternoon warm sunny and smoking up with speakers jamming screaming trees sweet oblivion
The Screaming Trees don't get the credit they truly deserve. I absolutely love Mark Lanegan!!!

@@unclececil mark struggled all his life with addiction man
Mark was literally a heroin addict and the Connor brothers were big drinkers. Sounds like Mark kinda just bailed.
@@unclececil Right about the second part, these lyrics are much unlike those of the other bands of the time.

Girl let them say what they will
That no one should hurt you
And that's all I seem to do
That no one should desert you
And that's all I seem to do
I got to tell you, goodbye mama
We've taken this too far
Been trying to tell you what's going on
Trying to make it easy on you
Trying to make it better
Make it easier on you
It's all I came to do
It's all I came to do
Now I'm down in the light
And I must be dreaming it
'Cause I see clearly, I see angels here
Bringing something to me, Mother Mercy
I told a lie, I didn't mean it
Goodbye mama, I've taken this too far
Been gone a while
Been gone a long way, oh yeah
I don't want to hurt you
It's all I seem to do
Don't want to desert you
It's all I seem to do
I got to tell you, goodbye mama
I've taken this too far
Been down a while
Been down a long way
Trying to make it easy on you
Trying to make it better
Make it easier on you
It's all I came to do
It's all I came to do
It's all I came to do
That's all, been down a long
Been down a long, long way
Torn like an old dollar bill
Screaming Trees Dollar Bill :)
Thank you :)
...what a sweet 'hearted' song 🌼
You must know by now you are blessed, metaphorically speaking
Always grateful for those who post the lyrics.
RIP Mark. I hadn't heard this in decades. It hits me so much harder at 50 than it ever could have at 20.
Amen brother....
Damn right it does
agreed
Amen
Felt that..
Mark reminds me of a cross between Tom Waits and Jim Morrison. Love him............
kinda looks like ron perlman and will Ferrell
Average Consumer or edie brikell and al jardine.
Ha!ha!ha!:)
sounds a lot like bono from U2
I definitely see that
Screaming Trees is the most underrated band of all time
A voice that can reduce a grown man to tears. Awesome :'-)
Can’t believe the news.
You have no idea how much you influenced my life.
I love you Mark, rest in peace.

Hasta siempre Mark Lanegan, tu voz, talento y música siempre abrazarán nuestros caminos 🤟🏻
Those precious days, i wish we stayed at that time forever. Rest easy Lanegan..
Rip Mark. This is definitely my favorite Screaming Trees song.
bye Mark, this song marked me forever. I recorded it in a cassette when listened it on the radio. Thanks!! good bye mama we have taken this too far!!
When I discovered the Screaming Trees, I was awestruck. So mellow, yet so hardcore. Truly underrated group...
@Hunter Vonnegut callate wey
Rest In Peace, Mark. Thanks for your music and legacy, you'll be missed.
I'd go back to the 90s in a heartbeat.
I'd pay for the gas lol
Click your heels three times...then dose..boom! You're there! 🧚
..as we travel..
I would find a way back as well. I was a child born in ‘90 but hearing such great music for the first time I would live over and over 😢
Same!
I know that Nearly Lost You was the big hit off this album, but Dollar Bill is the best song on the album and dare I say, one of the best ever? Yeah, it's that good.
The warm growl in your voice, wow. No one will ever have that again. Rest In Peace soulful Maestro.
great song to listen to while driving down long, desolate, country roads!
Or interstate in nebraska.
@Sean Dana Watch out for those nasty turns that sneak up on you!
RIP Mark Lanegan. Sweet Oblivion is one of the greatest albums ever.
Great band underrated and overlooked by most people.
Mark Lanegan has made more in 30 years than most people have in 100 years. May his soul rest in peace (1964-2022)
EPIC VOCALIST SONG STRATOSFERIC CD 100 R.I.P GREAT MARK LANEGAN🙏🙏
RIP Van Conner. Thanks for the music.
This was the one for me. Still tears right through me. RIP Mark ❣️
Very underrated band.
Yes
The greatest grunge band ever.
So is the one in your profile pic
Not the greatest definitely but one of the best and very underrated indeed

haha boa!

after Layne's death they made a tribute that's the time lanigan voice in long gone days..
Hurammabi Lapa Saw Alice in 2009 with Metallica, not the same without Layne but William DuVall did him justice.
RIP Layne Staley & Mike Starr.
Mark Lanegan was great but Layne was God!
Mad season made one album and that is totally gas.

Rest easy now Mark. Thank you for everything you gave us! I really appreciate you!
This song changed my life. Thank you Mark for everything. R.I.P, cant believe!
Assistindo, Ouvindo e Compartilhando em Fevereiro de 2.024 ...
One of my mom's favorite songs. Rest in peace Mama; rest in peace Mark. This year fucking sucks.
Sorry man. Hang in there
Some of you have moved on but when that needle hits the vinyl my voice is screaming the lyrics in absolute joy.
RIP Mark Lanegan. Thank you very much for your voice and contribution to rock music. Very honored to still hear your music.
This is one of my all-time favorite songs. It is perfect in every way.
Underrated 20 second solo. Tells a story. WTF else do you want?‘
The solo is so simple, but so much feeling…. Thank you Gary!
R.i.p Mark your music lives on
Simply put, this is the most underrated band of all time. I grew up in the early to mid 90s and for the life of me, I cannot understand why they werent absolutely huge. Phenomenal band.
Demons. Held it all back...half million copies of sweet oblivion,and they were beloved...and yet...
Such an awesome song - a shame it's not more widely known. I still love it, 20+ years later. This band was highly underrated IMHO.
Why is it a shame? That these little gems aren't well known is what makes them special to people like us.. These songs attract a certain kind of person. If it was popular mass market it wouldn't be the same.
The Trees were so damn good. I'm upset that I never got the opportunity to see them live. 'Sweet Oblivion' is such a fabulous album start to finish.
Mark Lanegan's voice is so epic!
This is the perfect song for Mark's voice. Raspy, longing, beautiful.
Mark Lanegan is beyond the great divide now.
I never saw this coming so soon... R.I.P. Mark. This song was always a favourite of mine and takes me back to more carefree times.
( RIP ) Van Conner 🎸 😔
Sad to hear of Van's passing today. RIP Van 💔
I love Marks voice it's soothing and calming but makes U think all at the same time.
I love every member of this band. So underrated. Thank you for your music. ❤️🔥
Your voice was a constant part of my youth...and still today. Goodbye, Mark. Fly high!
Love Van's bass lines here and Mark kills this track. RIP...
Love this song so much. R.I.P. Mark Lanegan. An amazing talent.
Van told me once about writing this song. I wish I could remember if they were driving to Ellensburg or from Ellensburg but it was late at night and they wrote this in the car while driving. RIP Van
Awesome story one of the most underrated bands from my generation, proud Gen X’er! Song totally rips! 🎸⚡️
Rest In Peace Mark Lanegan This song got me through some rough times in my life and was always a favorite. Thanks for leaving a legacy of great music during your time on earth.
Yet here I am again year after year. No one will ever know the life and love in the 90s without this music to carry on
My teenage years were difficult at best. One voice always soothed me, Mark was one of a kind. God bless him.
God, whoever he wrote this about he loved so much.
RIP, Mark. You will forever be one of the top voices from my generation
RIP the two members of Screaming Trees
Mark Lanegan (November 25, 1964 - February 22, 2022), aged 57

I cant help myself from crying thank you Mark
R.I.P Mark and Van 🖤
Rest In Grunge
maybe you shouldn't wish them that -- at least mark hated grunge ^^
RIP Mark Lanegan. Gone but not forgotten..
Some great drumming here!
Walked into this concert w/friends in Seattle as a 17 yr old
Do you remember it? Any details? What an experience that must have been!
Grunge, with depth. A grunge ballad. I have been missing the 90s for 20 years now.
"torn like an old dollar bill" those words where the first thing I thought of when I heard the news about Mark....Rest In Peace Mark thanks for helping me get through my teens while a beautiful amazing voice.
Man 2022 is really taking some good ones. Betty white. Bob saget. Now mark.
so fuckin full of soul and feeling. i cant help but get into this music. simply amazing. just gotta sit back, close your eyes and take it in people. absorb the greatness. just cant find music like this these days.
WE lost another voice of OUR GENERATION!!!

Was part of the crew at Big Day Out saw this band lead singer sat on a chair with a broken leg and a bottle jeager what a show!!!! Loved them ever since
Powerful voice, shiny and beautiful soul. Rest in piece
This is one of my favorite songs of all time. ❤️
So many memories of Mark, I realised today I've heard his voice more than my father's during my lifetime. Rip you beautiful soul 🙏❤️
One of the best written songs ever. RIP Mark.
Revisiting this in the wake of willingly subjecting myself to Lanegan's memoir, I'm still in awe of this video.
There's so much gorgeous natural hair in this video - in this band, I can't even.
What a crazy ride that book is, right?
He already sounds and looks like a world weary middle aged man here. I cant believe how he was able to pull this off.
Damnnn that one hit me hard, always been such an important song to me. RIP Mark Lanegan you legend
Such an underrated band. Never get tired of hearing the Trees. Very tight.
Assistindo e Ouvindo em Julho de 2.023...
