John is the GQ Man of the Year!! He's absolutely gorgeous here! EDIT: John is the GQ Man of EVERY Year!! I could watch this video a thousand times!...perhaps I already have!!
I feel like crying everytime I watch the goo goo dolls or listen to their songs. I recently found out their music, like a week ago, and I'm so annoyed at myself for not listening to their songs 10 years ago..I love them so much. I wish they know that they still have alot of fans out there supporting them and would keep on creating albums until they turn 70.
@@alfredeneuman4947 its cool how your comment is written almost exactly 10 years later. Their music is as good now as then, and will bein another 10 years, or 100 or 1000!
@@tsarfield5835 yeah its crazy, and ten years from now there will be someone else who wish they knew of this song and this band earlier! haha but im just glad i finally found it.
@@alfredeneuman4947 I also recently discovered their music! I’d heard Iris before but had no idea how good their other songs are. They are still releasing great music, but their older songs are definitely my favourites.

Johnny looks so yummy here! ...Back in the 90's I was so in love with him!OMG he looks so fine in this video, he is GORGEOUS! I still love this man going to see them in concert next week!!!
It's about someone he knew hooked on heroin. "Coming down the world turned over..."- He's describing how coming down from the high of the drug makes you world hell. Pretty sad but beautiful.
Io dico per cantare è molto importante tutto il viso .Lui ha un viso ed un profilo perfetto per cantare, ha un viso bellissimo. Alto. Lui ha un fisico vigoroso. E' MOLTO FORTE .Ha tanta forza fisica.E'cantante ;canta benissimo.
In un momento storico; così difficile per tutti, indossando la mascherina sul viso , il mio abbraccio virtuale, e ' per tutti i miei amici. Io e loro ,pensiamo sempre ad un matrimonio, romantico .Siamo romantici ed attuali.📚.
Someone had to make a career out of detuning your acoustic and singing at the coffee shop . He’s the one. He took two with him…..all the way to the bank…..awesome .
age is a terrible thing, however, he still sings better now than most young artists do. I do wish he could hit all the notes so I could hear It live haha, I can hit them, but I'm not John Rzeznik so its not the same (;
Wish they didn’t raise the key by a semi note, maybe John could’ve hit the notes at least once. Would’ve loved to hear the “and I’ll go on I will lead you home and” like the studio just once
The performance is actually good in my opinion. But who ever did the recording part really screwed up. You can baerly hear the bass, drums and backing vocals.
I can see why he dodges high notes so much. Don't get me wrong Jonny is an amazing singer but his range is limited probably from all the cigarettes. Like sticks nicks

Should have gotten a Grammy for this song. Another oversight from the Music Industry. I love this song!
Iris gets the respect, but this is in my opinion the best song he ever wrote
Who got it instead
@@TheReubenKincaid totally agree

lol he always looked like the main character of a final fantasy game during this time
This was his Cloud Strife era.
lol know this comment is 3 years old but I’m playing the remake right now and got a good chuckle out of this comment.
He looked cool af lol
Parece mais com o Squall
wow. beautiful man inside and out.
Whenever I watch this and sing with it, there is always a tear that wants to come out of my eyes.... what a powerful music.
Sigh me too ❤️
best performance of black balloon here.....i like how he hits the notes like he is supposed to
Haha you’re kidding right
Unfortunatley, not even close. He can't sing like the studio recording at all.
@@Asherek he definetly can, there are performances out there that prove it
Great performance......carry ON GOO GOO Dolls.

Love his voice! Johnny is gorgeous!!
Love this band!!! And they're still awesome in 2019!!! Now that's start up talent!!!💞💋💞
Nice, Johnny in full on Rockstar mode. Love it.
música boa , tempo bom
i love his hair
John Rzeznik ...one of the sexiest man alive in his youth 😆
+James Hawkins "True~Beauty" never ceases...
Yeah right ✌ your a big goo goo fan too 😆
James Hawkins he looks like a mess now he has had so much facelift it's ridiculous.
@@giotrapani7852 he still looks great!!
Michael Pal I disagree now he’s a mess. Years of smoking Cigarettes and drinking alcohol really messed up his voice.
drug addiction never souned this good.
I love the goo goo dolls
absolutely johnny is an amazing musician
I remember watching this when I was 7 what a beautiful song and year 99 till infinity.
His voice
are you someones prayer........
Such a beautiful man 😘
This guitar tuning is fucking beautiful
Awesome!!!! Voice is so powerful!!!
Love you Goo Goo Dolls
When I here this song it makes me drip in tears😢 this song will always be iconic!love you Johnny
Johnny looks so yummy here! ...Back in the 90's I was so in love with him!OMG he looks so fine in this video, he is GORGEOUS! I still love this man going to see them in concert next week!!!
Hi , how are you ?
Love the Goos! Wish for things that I dont need like a Goo concert ticket! Seen them 8 times its always awesome! 😀
He looks so cute that way

wow, thank you very much for taking time to reply, It's really appreciated. I fell in love with The Goos since a was a teen. Gracias! desde el Caribe!
Love you guys forever
Love and heroin addiction. My song -.- so beautiful.
fantastic song :)
OMG loved the leg flick at the end there at 3: 26!! :O
God they're awesome
The only live version where Johnny sings “swallow the light from the sun inside your room” in the same tone of the record version…
Ugh, I've been looking for a live version like the record
Yeah he's actually hitting the high notes here. Wish he would always do that. His voice is so awesome
There is another live version where he sings in the same tone, even better
yep well, 'InSIDE your room' is the high note. I think he was getting real into it and just said fuck what we did in the practice.
@@pabloalvarez8344could you share the link?
holy moly! whoa. look at john! nice leather pants! love the hair! and , goo'reat performance! thanx so much for posting- u always have the best vids!
My special place!
whoever was running sound for them sucked at his or her job
Literally, and it's always music awards ironically

Greatness + Hotness.

Fuxxing Fantastic :)
..what?!
💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Omg back when guitars still had cables
Well there were wireless then too
Well said! :D
their prime was actually before dizzy up the girl I have been a fan for 20 years now
Legend has it, that Johnny raided Midgar directly after this performance.
ha ha
3:10 ... just wow
Always going to your uncomfortable though on something you're not used to
1:25 Mitch Hedberg?

LEATHER PANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ZeeIris98
There's quite a few here on youtube.
Normally when a band changes the key in live performances is to a lower key to make it easier for the singer. Why a half step higher for live beats me
OMG this is amazing!!! where did u get all this footage????
LOL yeah it was pretty sick :P

Do you have any footage of them playing Iris in 99 or 98???
Wish they didn’t raise the key by a semi note, maybe John could’ve hit the notes at least once. Would’ve loved to hear the “and I’ll go on I will lead you home and” like the studio just once
Sounds like he's less comfortable up the half tone throughout.
Ugh, gotta agree with ya.
Imagine loving a girl who was struggling wirh a heroine addiction...
@The Goo Fighters Imagine a girl loving you back...holistically
What type of hairdo is he rockin?
😂😂😂
Sometimes it's better to jump into the edge of something
Play watch the guy step off the edge and now he's laughing about it
You'll be sorry when you don't sleep under the edge of something
is that what this song is about? Sorry, I'm not a native English speaker...
Great song, great band, but weak performance. This is probably the weakest version of Black Balloon I've heard so far.
My opinion.
Is this a fact? Because if it is.. well. thats just a really good fact. :)
samsquanch1996 I thought it was bad because the Acoustics of the room
The instruments sound fine, but it sounds like Johnny is having a hard time singing here.
samsquanch1996 instrument music was loud drowned out voices....so thing is definitely off
It’s still a decent performance for being the worst in ur opinion
The best black balloon live performance? Too bad whoever was responsible for the sound production did a bad job 😥
They actually sound great here. I alwaye thought it was whoever did record this did a bad job 😂
*sounded
bassist looks and sounds like sambora
Such a pretty face, my chin dimple is like Johnny's 😳
Sounds like the sound man (men?) was pretty bad at his job both before and after. Rough performance and a really bad mix.
The performance is actually good in my opinion. But who ever did the recording part really screwed up. You can baerly hear the bass, drums and backing vocals.
X
he hits the notes cuz he's young lol not 50 like he is now
I can see why he dodges high notes so much. Don't get me wrong Jonny is an amazing singer but his range is limited probably from all the cigarettes. Like sticks nicks
I didn't know he smoked. lol
I think this song he wrote for her mother, who got depressed when his father died.
This was written about a very close friend he had who struggled with addiction
Who would've thought a song about a heroin addicted prostitute would sound so beautiful.
I definitely got bad taste
I really dislike how all the verses are altered in all their live versions
Terrible ass acoustic electric sound.
He's always played awful sounding acoustics for some reason lol
