It’s even more sad to watch that performance now that Shifty’s gone. R.I.P.
Yup sad performance . Shell of himself and voice was shot .
Thanks for being a kind human being to him despite the challenges he was facing.
Butterfly was a big hit when i was growing up. Thanks for contributing to my teenage years. All the best on your next adventure Shifty.
I remember watching this vid and thinking "someones gotta step in or this dude is toast". RIP dude :(
He seemed pretty strung out
I think the video and the effort to help him “re-start” his career was absolutely people “stepping in” to save him. And I’d imagine his loved ones would describe countless days and nights of worry and heartache trying to find the magic words that would convince him to get (back) into treatment, to accept help, to make the “right” choice. And he may have even told them he was finished using and ready to turn shit around . . . but sometimes the last time, is the last time.
Yeah, dude was outta there😮
"These days I'd rather be conscious than unconscious." Well said, Norm. 👍👍👍 Every time someone dies from drugs something special is lost. Rest in peace, Shifty Shellshock.
U having a pink Floyd pfp makes this comment even better
@@bakfietspriester Your Nirvana emblem says something too. I'm a huge fan of The Doors too. Never liked drugs, but I love the music.
@@audiophileman7047 im fine with soft drugs but i cant say it doesnt ruin ya life
@@bakfietspriester I had a college roommate many years ago who was addicted to weed. He knew that I wasn't into it and used it away from me. When the school year was over and we were parting ways, some of the last words he said to me were, "I'm tired of smoking my life away." True story.
@@audiophileman7047 as somebody who smokes weed regularly i can get thats why u try to minimalize ur use
and try to stay active atleast work out or do sports 3 times a week to keep ur lungs regulaly used
Luckly enough now a days u dont have to smoke to get high u can just buy edibels
A little part of my heart is broken today. 20+ years of good music to support my life in happy and sad moments. You will be missed me.
Stefano from Italy.
same stefano , my heart is broken i met him 1 time in amsterdam he was a lovely person . kids stay of drugs and alcohol
Classy Norm. I love how you remember and speak well off all your friends of the past.
Norm, your heart sure is in the right place. RIP, Shifty.
Not surprised. I live in an area with lots of tweakers and he already looks like he hit rock bottom here.
Its tragic because he was so young
@@stuco I believe he was. I remember a comment from someone on reddit _many_ years ago saying they saw him tweaking on drugs, walking around LA. That had to of been 6-7 years ago.
It's sad that is not surprise, especially due to people talk about it that they knew.Instead of judging him then and now they should help out.If not helping Him, then at least helping others who are struggling with addiction.
Rip shifty 💔 I remember being 16 when they would play them non stop on mtv, my bro, and I would get ready for school and eat breakfast watching and listening to random videos on mtv and vh1. Never got into crazy town, but every time I hear this song, I think about the good old days
Absolutely heartbreaking. RIP.
The first time i saw that video i knew that he was too far gone. and that he needed more help than ever. it was a great thing that Norm tried to help out trying to resurrect his career by reaching out to Norms audiences but at that time Shifty was too far gone. RIP Shifty shellshock
He mentioned Sid and Nancy in this song - two tragic young people who died from drug abuse and addiction, and now he himself is dead from the same. Just sad.
True ! I'm crying for him and for how people suck basically, judging him while beeing exactly like him but maybe with other " daily drugs"
@@alessandrovinci8724 Oh quit your bullshit already.
Most people have vices, it's true. Most of them try and fight em. But putting methamphetamines, cocaine, heroin, fentanyl etc in the same category as gambling, sugar, or even smartphone addiction is brain-dead.
With heroin, alcohol and all those drugs, you waste your health (liver, teeth, kidneys, eventually heart), psychology and money. With gambling you just waste your money and psychology. Sugar can be handled (and cut) much easier and most people take sugar without being freaks if they miss it.
My law is, judge and let others judge you. Feel Free.
Smh 😞🙏
Nancy was stabbed, so She was killed far as i remember.
I always thought he was so gorgeous. Man, the stuff really ended up gettin’ him didn’t it 🙏🏼
Absolutely gorgeous, being a generic tattooed hipster makes you a knockout! Loaded with talent.
@@Harp_and_Guitar_Moving_Forwardreading your replies on TH-cam on many videos shows you’re a very unhappy person who leaves only negative comments 🆒
@arcticmonkey3 he's enjoying himself. He's a wild child trolling drug free.
drugs and alcohol will steal your soul
Can't help it. He looks like the cyrypt keeper and his voice is gone.
@arcticmonkey3
RIP Shifty. Also check out his song “slide along side”, it’ll cheer you up. Perfect summertime track
😔
This video is so full of love. You are great people. RIP Shifty.
It's so sad seeing him in such bad shape here. He was such a handsome man, he defined the era, he's the face of the mad Max era.
Thanks for being super respectful of our friend ❤
You call this respectful? it’s clearly only for views. how embarrassing to remember him that way at his worst.
😂 shhhhhh@@smitty0159
@@smitty0159 You think that owner of this YTC did it for that reason? As ex addict to be honest it's a bit degoutant to talk after someone died about their addiction, no need to mention it at all. I saw a lot of my friends died from drugs, some were popular musicians in this region of Europe and i always felt a sort of discussing when they mentioning drugs in media after they died like ''oh etc''..I mean if they cared they would help while they were alive. Each person knows that drugs are not OK, so it sucks to abuse dead people for click ..I hope it wasn't becouse of it, but on the other hand maybe you ghad right.
I saw that vid a week ago for the first time,,,something made me search Shifty ,,,noticing the change of tone in the comments in this vid compared to the initial. Appreciate people when they are still here….it sucks it takes death to get compassion from a fickle,demented society… journey well Seth
He used to be so handsome ❤
Jesus that was tough to watch🙏
Fair winds and following seas, Shifty.
Thank you for sharing your gift 🙏🏻
You are missed 🤍
RIP MR SHIFFTY YOU DO NOT KNOW BUT YOU SAVED MY LIFE BY LEARNIBG FROM YOUR MISTAKES PEACE LOVE AND PRAYERS TO YOUR FAMILY AND FRIEDS
Thank you for the love and support - God Bless - he is dearly missed.
Out of all the wars fought...the war on 💉 💊 drugs have taken more lives than all the other wars combined.
Say no to drugs
💉 💊 🚫
✌✌🏻✌🏾😢
The ones who take drugs laugh at that. Ironically the drug free get the last laugh.
@@DackDavenport Sad but true...many are in the throws of self destruction for sure...its a life or death situation...I have two cousins who have both lost that war...they both had many warnings and many chances to put the drugs down...but they chose to play roulette game and lost...both in the ground. Like a sewer when it rains...it all went down the drain. We all die someday...but they both died young. Sad but true.✌✌🏾✌🏻
RIP. I was always rooting for him.
Growing up as a kid, my Dad took me to Norms all the time. Guitars and music are everything to my Dad. About 6 months into my recovery in my early 20's, we met Shifty Shellshock at Canters Deli on Fairfax. He was so sweet. I'm so sad about his passing ❤
Damn! Even under this situation and pain, he gave this performance his all. It was difficult to watch, then, I kept watching because I felt his dedication to his craft. Incredible performance considering his condition. RIP
Life is the most unfair thing we deal with. We all have lost family and friends. People do what they do. Sometimes it works out and they survive others it doesn't. Why, nobody knows. Sorry to see this happen sure he had family and friends as well who knew his place in the world. If you are in a situation similar to this get help. There's always hope.
Broou.. He looks so sad in here.. Rest in peace, now you are butterfly on heaven🥺
My condolences to Mom and Pop Shellshock
What a great performance to leave us with! RIP Shifty 😢
You're spot on Norm.
Another sad story of a life gone way too soon , impacting his loved ones.
I grew up in the 60’s and 70’s and we all did some stupid stuff.
But with the poison on the streets now such as fentanyl , it's a whole different problem.
Unfortunately, I lost my daughter Lacey in December 2022. It has immensely impacted my family , and she leaves behind her now 6 year old son , who has been in my care since he was a few months old.
I curse the people who are peddling that poison every day of my life , and hope that karma catches up with them very soon.
RIP Shifty. You were one of my idol in the early 2000’s.
He was too young to die 😔
But too old to live !
correct beauty... but the residue accumulates too much
Thanks for shining a light Norm
Thank you for Re sharing this ❤ Seth was so much more than his addiction and it’s just a very sad outcome.
RIP Shifty❤
Thanks guys!
238 million views on TH-cam. Shocking news. Condolences.
RIP Shifty. Awesome tune and kind words Norm ❤
I used to see him around LA all the time, so sad, rest in power, my brother 😢❤
RIP Shifty🥀🥀🕊️🕊️
Sorry for your loss, Norm.
What a lovely, respectful tribute ❤.
So sorry to hear this.
Say what you will, dude made great music way past butterfly if you get a chance look through his discography of work.
RIP Shifty.. Class act as always Norm. Thanks for sharing.
Class act lol
So the "Butterfly" cover video was basically an attempt to heel him with music. Thank You for that!
Very cool!
RIP: Thanks Norm.
It's crazy to see the physical effects that drugs have on the body...I feel for ppl who struggle with it.
Shifty was a trippy dude , but life unfortunately gets in the way sometimes & the unfortunate reality of drugs takes it toll. R.I.P. dude.
R I P Seth❗️
That was the most awesome version of that song EVER❗️
✌🏻❤️🙏🏻
Ridiculous
RIP Shifty. Beautiful rendition of Butterfly that was!
Rip shifty and love to all your friends and family ❤️
GOD is love. Shifty I know you are finally free and up in Heaven dancing and freelancing. 👍🎸😎🙏🏼✌️
I saw a reel in IG and I came here to see if the person in the video was really Shifty...
Man... unbelievable...
RIP. Que descanses en paz, Shifty.
I can’t believe you guys posted this the first time let alone again and with a straight face. Damn, poor guy rip Seth
YOu have right, now when i watched the 1st video and saw comment it's so terrible. If He did due to respect then they would remove all sort of insulting comments which are just making even greater prejudice and stigmatization of people who are suffering.
Woah 😯
Damn man so sad 😞
May he rest in peace 🤍
Great performance. RIP
rip shifty shellshock. much love to all his friends and family
Drowning is their most underrated song by far
‘Change’ from that album is really good too.
Yeah Drowning was one of my Favs too!
Very sad to hear. Far too many artists from my generation leaving far too early. Between mental health issues and addiction I think that’s 99% of premature deaths with struggling artists. Hopefully those numbers can trend downward 😔
Playing it a bit fast and loose with the term “artist”
@@stephieklassen3473 “A musician is an artist who composes, conducts, or performs music. According to the United States Employment Service, "musician" is a general term used to designate a person who follows music as a profession”
RIP
Beautiful tribute ❤️ just breaks my heart 🥹 thank you for sharing
kind of you, norm
I'll preach to ya , I'll never get to jam with my best friend again because heroin took his life . He left behind a daughter who dosen't have a father now. Turning a blind eye isnt working. We need to vote to vote no more drugs.
This breaks my heart.
That song man.. rest in peace
Well said, and very classy. First time listening to this version of Butterfly very nice! 🦋
I spend a month every year in LA for work. I always make it a point to swing by Norms and get a t shirt and dream while looking at the history he has on the walls.
I think Norm looks at humans like guitars, yes they may had some glory in years past and they may look rough now but there is still value in them.
Thank you for your humility and words Norm. See you in September when I come out.
Sorry to hear of Shifty's passing. He had a very hard life and only 49. RIP
Rocked it
I've actually spent lot's of time with these dudes as well as his guitarist and sisters.
dude we a class act and down to earth real la guy before it changed. played a show with his band in Beverly hills and I'm sorry to hear this but it was expected.. rip bro
This isn't the video to put up to remember him.. still time to take it down. This is absolutely terrible
Why take it down. Its a warning of where a life of drug use can lead a person.
Oh whatever.
I agree. Sad.
RIP Shifty Shellshock of the legendary Rap Metal and Nu Metal band Crazy Town CXT. Your musical legacy will forever live on.
That's a really cool arrangement with the guitars. Such a cool guy. Miss you Shifty 😢
May he rest in peace ❤️🩹
cool norm
Sad how some people let themselves go out rest in peace
The toothless version of this song rules!
🤣 i dont know why i found this so funny but thanks.
Thifty thelthok
So sorry to hear. I remember this video; I think I even commented on it at the time. So many street drugs these days are being cut with fentanyl by evil cartels and dealers making things doubly risky. I don't know if that's what took Shifty, but I'd almost be willing to bet on it. R.I.P.
Fentanyl ☠️
Nice bit of talent here Norm, But sadly we all pass on, but we leave great memories, Thank you for recording this for us Stil here. Gib New Zealand
I like how Paul Brown and the other two musicians (sorry I don't recognize them) are playing with seriousness and respect. I will say that Paul is looking at Shifty with a bit of disbelief. Regarding addiction, everybody's bottom is different, and some people die on their way there. RIP Shifty.
Rip bro .
It's quite clear in his appearance here that he suffers from addiction. He often looked healthy,fit even though he struggled with his demons. In this video you can see the weight loss,sunken eyes,disheveled appearance of someone that has been gripped severely by addiction. May he rest in peace where finally he will find that peace he so desperately sought through addiction.
So heartbreaking his children will know he was loved R.I.P ❤
Great guitar playing
Oh Shifty may you 🪦 RIP
This is very sad indeed.A great way for a send off.🙏🏼
Legend
Don't know about all that lol
Amazing video and hello from MIAMI, R I P SHIFTY 🕊️
Dude is lit af here..
R.I.P. bro, its jst too hard, everyone has their own way.
RIP ❤
this was horrible..ilove you bro.but even you would have agreed. im sorry you lost your battle. you will be loved by all. rest in peace brother
For all those who make fun of him not having theeth, this man was in pain and had the strength to get off the drugs, but sometimes we are our worst enemies. We need faith in our hearts. Dont knock a brother down. Who's down. Im sorry you could not overcome this demomic cr*p that has imfested our beautiful planet . RiP. We love you Shifty!!! I would have love to have met you!
My favorite version
I imagine he will be missed.
