Soooooo damn goood. I'm in my late 30's and a classic rock 60/70's junky, and I do it on vinyl. This band is one of only a handful that I'm missing in my collection. They are awesome. Love it all.
I listened Blind Melon for the first time at 2005 in college, in the Brazil's south. A colleague who lived in USA like a mormon talked about Shanoon with so much love. He borrow me a CD and I listened at the my cousin's discman. I fell so much love for this friend who presented me Blind Melon and Shannon.
I go through cycles in my Life. Where I get into stuff. And then I put it away in a Pantheon of all the things I cherish in Life. That's what's going on with me right now with this Masterpiece of an Album. Shannon Hoon had pipes like no one else. He Sung beautifully. GOD BLESS YOU SHANNON, a big hurray to this amazing Band , BLIND MELON,Thx u for the Memories.
It sucks that radio stations only ever play No Rain by these guys. They're such a musically awesome band and are so much more than that song. Such an underrated band
Like many, this band came up on my radar because of 'No Rain' when it came out. I bought the album and was instantly hooked. I played that cd front to back hundreds of times - then of course bought 'Soup' and 'Nico' & 'Live at the Metro'. I remember precicely where I was when I heard that Shannon died. I can't describe the way this band touches my heart. No other music impacts me quite the way theirs does. A great band - playing honest music - at just the right time in your life will do that. Blind Melon is that band to me. Sending love their way.
I was fortunate enough to see these guys in 1993 and then a month before Shannon passed away. It's 2018 and I'm still listening to them. These guys are one of the most underrated bands of that era.
Thank you! When people don't know Blind Melon or only say yeah those guys that played No Rain and had no other hits... I want to punch them in the teeth.... These guys were the best of the best. And young as heck. Imagine what they would be doing today. So unfair.
2:17 The drummer is really playing, "Out Of The Box", like Keith Moon but with more precision and technique. If You really concentrate on the drums, You realize how much more He's doing than keeping a beat. Its the phrasing of his drumming which is unique. A true master, and my favorite song of the whole era.
@rosaiglarsh9987 Dayton cemetery right outside Lafayette,Indiana his hometown....I live 10 mins from his grave it's in small church cemetery towards the back he is buried beside his brother Tim and just recently his dad on the other side there are pics and vids online shows it and lots of other stuff
It’s so beautiful to natural to be who you are, he was definitely a new hippie. He looks like tha dudes did when I grew up in tha 70s. Sure wish that look would come back coz it sure looks good. !!!!
I just sort of discovered Blind Melon for real. Heard No Rain ages ago. But just heard Change for the first time this week. Incredible song. Now the rest of their music is opening up to me for the first time. It's a beautiful thing.
Amazing music! Wish there was more fusion music like this Funk, Jazz, Rock. Makes every molecule want to stand up and dance in different directions. RIP Shannon Hoon
CBC Canada played No Rain today by Blind Melon. Never heard of these amazing guys. They totally slipped under the radar. Best band I've heard since I was a kid in the 70s
A candle that burns twice as bright burns half as long. and you just know that Shannon is rocking out with all of the other great ones we lost to soon in Heaven.
love it more of you 100 year olds should be on our generation´s videos !!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
one of the greatest rock songs I have ever heard. Haven't heard them all by a long shot but I have heard a few. Listening to music since early Beatle times.
Was in high school when these guys came out.....absolutely loved anything I could get my hands on by them to listen to....rip Shannon thank you for remarkable showmanship and vocals
I used to listen to blind melon on the way to soccer games growing up, my dad was the coach and these guys put us in a good mood everytime. Listening to their music as an adult my life is starting to make sense 😂 shannon had a huge impact on my childhood and so many lives. My 2 month old now falls asleep to soup every nap time, takes only a few minutes and he's so peaceful.
I really loved the '60s hippie revival we seemed to have in music in the early '90s. Bands like Blind Melon and Blues Traveler. I wasn't alive for the first hippie music movement, but I feel blessed I got to see a little piece of it re-emerge. Just wish it would've lasted longer.
March, 1993, some of my buddies and I went to LA for spring break from Michigan State University. I’ll never forget hearing this song on the radio driving down the 10 freeway to Santa Monica. We had no idea who this was but we were all blown away; this groovy, bluesy rock and roll led by a front man with such a distinctive voice...it was like nothing we were listening to at the time. Went to Tower Records later and found out that the band was called Blind Melon. Of course I bought the cassette and we listened to it the whole week, every song was (and still is) amazing; Tones of Home was our anthem for that trip, and we relished the fact that we were the ones who introduced these guys to the rest of our friends. Not long after about 20 of us got tix and bussed down to see them with GnR at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Again I was blown away by their live performance, and Shannon with such raw energy running around all over the stage in bare feet. Damn, I’ll never forget those days, every time I listen to Blind Melon it brings back some of my fondest memories of such a wonderful decade. R.I.P Shannon, hopefully we’ll meet up in another life...
Yeah, I agree. I jammed this shit in high-school. I'm still listening. Timeless melody. Music you can let go and feel free. RIP, where ever you are Shannon.
That's really cool, you've got good taste. Soup is also an amazing record, didn't get as much attention but had real rockers, especially the song "Galaxy".
This is one of my favorite Melon songs...... one of many many favorites. I wonder what he would have written for us if he didn't lose his battle with addiction. F'kin sad RIP brother..... you are missed!
Live at Woodstock is faster and whew!!!! Take you on a trip. Not into this type music anymore but LOVE LOVE LOVE Blind Melon. Shannon's vocals are still amazing. Try those vocals yourselves and see....imagine an hour of this awesome frontman RIP, 😢
I was in high school when I first heard this song, now 2023 with grown up kids, still playing and enjoying it. I wish Shannon have lived longer but I think his voice lives on!
saw them live with guns and roses at the dean smith center chapel hill nc, in 92 and i was blown away. one of the best bands ive ever seen live. the way they sounded in that place was unbeliveable. ran out the next day and bought the record
I was born in 68 and now at 54yrs old I can say that the 90's were the best decade I've experienced. Great music that pushed the limits and artists who could truly sing and play instruments from the soul.
Absolutely... It was the pinnacle of music in my opinion. 50s good. 60s better. 70s awesome. 80s sucked ..sorry if that offended anyone. 90s.. set the standard. Untouchable. 2000s bayc to good....now.? Ehhhhh. Dont really feel much of it at all. If any. Though older bands are making music again. So maybe it'll jump start a rebirth of greatness again.
It was awesome then new music coming out and waiting to see the videos and really hoping your favorite song off the album would be made into a video. Hopefully by Spike! The most awesome video directors with the most awesome bands it was great when MTV actually played videos! Rolling around with an half OZ and your friends just rolling J's and jamming out, whoever had the biggest vehicle with the best system was the driver. I had a van with 2 10" subs, 2 12" woofers, a bunch of smaller speakers and 1500 watts, 2 24" black lights and strobes, made everyone listen to all that good music! 🤣 We used to set up the drums in the back, plug in the guitar to the head unit aux input and the bass guitar plugged into the inverter and we'd jam and drive around and watch people looking everywhere for the live band playing and then I'd switch on the interior lights and strobes! 🤣
Underrated gold, everyone I know just remembers that no rain song,it was on HEAVY rotation on the radio and MTV in the early 90s,seems like most people just saw them as a one hit wonder and never dove deeper into their music...shame this whole album was amazing, And their woodstock performance was legendary....rip shannon
Great, great song. Somehow bridges 70's style jam bands with modern rock, a slight grunge edge and Shannon sounds a little like the hippie Perry Farrell! What a great band!
What do you think they would say If I stood up, and I walked away? Nobody here really understands me And so I wave goodbye, I'm fine I'm fine [Chorus] Tones of home Said, you don't like the way I'm living (You don't like me) Tones of home, tones of home (And so I wave) goodbye I'm flyin' And I'm flyin' home Home, home, home [Verse 2] And I always thought this would be See, the land of milk and honey Oh, but I come to find out that it's all hate and money And there's a canopy of greed holdin' me down [Chorus] [Bridge] See, I'm so high to you, but don't fade away, oh yeah I said, you're on your own Your mom and daddy said That you sister said And you brother's saying (what'd your brother say?) Is saying everybody (everybody) Is saying everybody Is saying I-I-I-I gotta go! [Solo] [Verse 3] All my friends patronize me They say "Yo, hey, boy! Have you found what you're looking for?" It seems they don't really know me 'Cause it's here An' it's what they can't see [Chorus]
How much thier great career could have been, BM what a bunch of AMAZING musicians!! And Shannon what a loss for Rock... 2021 & still we all the fans miss U bro.
52 yrs old now and this is still one of the greatest albums of my life time. It came out during a very bad period in my life. Addiction and divorce a life of disappointment. I could put this album on fire up a Debbie an all was good . Left this album on repeat
Capitol Records execs thought this was more like a jam session song created to fill the album. They didn't realize the voices and bass line / drums are killing it.
I could not agree more, this song is extraordinary. Back in '92 when I first popped this CD in the CD player, I knew it was one of those songs I'd listen to for the rest of my life. Over my entire lifetime, I've only rarely had that experience. Heard this song first on Mtv and went right out and bought the CD so I could hear it over and over. Decades later, I now understand that many people like pop songs like No Rain because they don't have to think that deeply, and although they might bother to learn the lyrics so they can sing along, I don't think many people really take time to think that deeply about what the writers are saying. This is actually one of those songs where I try *not* to think about the lyrics because they're quite heartbreaking, and it just makes me cry thinking how heroin destroyed his life and how miserable he (and many others) were getting caught up in the ruthless greed of the psychopaths that ran the music industry for decades. All that aside, this song totally rips
Saw Blind Melon open for The Rolling Stones back in 1994 in Ames, Iowa at Cyclone Stadium, and they pulled this bad ass tune off fantastically! Lots of energy out of the late Mr. Shannon Hoon and band.
Why'd he have to be so damn self-destructive? And if he _had_ to die tragically young, isn't it a shame he missed being in the 27 Club by less than a month?
@@rosaiglarsh9987 No one heard what he was saying in his songs? Just like Kurt Cobain. No one was REALLY listening. I wish I had been aware of each of their music at the time. I would have heard that they were each suicidal due to my training. Don't know if I could have helped.
My god. Listening to this I realize how overproduced today's popular music is with the autotune and quantization that virtually eliminates all 'feel' and 'soul'. This song speeds up, slows down, comes at you, then hangs back, the singer hits his note but not right away, it just sounds real and true, like you're listening to a single impeccable performance live. The music industry has stripped away all humanity. This was a top 10 hit on Billboard. Good luck finding anything remotely close to this level of art in today's top 10. And I'm not even really a Blind Melon fanboy. This is just a good song, like hundreds of others that came out in that miraculous decade of the 90s.
Soooooo damn goood. I'm in my late 30's and a classic rock 60/70's junky, and I do it on vinyl. This band is one of only a handful that I'm missing in my collection. They are awesome. Love it all.
I knew Shannon, lived in my hometown! Rock on Shannon!
Hello from Scotland 🏴 How are you doing today? I hope it's been a nice day? HAPPY NEW YEAR WISHES 🎉🥳💖

I can honestly say this may be the most under appreciated band I know of. These young kids were geniuses, absolute peak musical talent.
I think this is the greatest song ever. Im lucky enough to live 20 minutes from Shannon's grave and visit it frequently.
Where is it?
@rosaiglarsh9987 Dayton cemetery right outside Lafayette,Indiana his hometown....I live 10 mins from his grave it's in small church cemetery towards the back he is buried beside his brother Tim and just recently his dad on the other side there are pics and vids online shows it and lots of other stuff
man what could have been? the 90s really were the last great time to be coming of age
It’s so beautiful to natural to be who you are, he was definitely a new hippie. He looks like tha dudes did when I grew up in tha 70s. Sure wish that look would come back coz it sure looks good. !!!!

Listen to “Soul One” you’re welcome
Everything they did was a masterpiece, you discovered a great one of kind talented band
The 90s were just special
Amazing music! Wish there was more fusion music like this Funk, Jazz, Rock. Makes every molecule want to stand up and dance in different directions. RIP Shannon Hoon
That band and voice!! No words for the talent and vibe
Blind Melon thats all I can say. Soundtrack of my life. So Soul. I study this everyday. Its time for another Blind Melon. This shit is REAL love .
The best band ever!!!!
one of the coolest songs i have ever heard. great bass, guitar, drums.
CBC Canada played No Rain today by Blind Melon. Never heard of these amazing guys. They totally slipped under the radar. Best band I've heard since I was a kid in the 70s
You are now " blessed " withe the sounds of an amazing band. Peace
Yep
They were a great band.....

Love. 🐦⬛.

I think the lyrics are so deep, the music is icing on the cake!!
Nobody here really understands me either except this kick ass music that never grows old,peace be with us all,rock n roll forever
You're not alone!!!
The most underrated band of the 90s. Blind Melon was one of a kind.
They really were So AMAZING!!
Yes I wish Shannon Hoon was with us stil
They were a terrific band but they are too similar to Janes Addiction to call them one of a kind.
@@stardogMLB not the same at all.
@@stardogMLB I think they were one of a kind.
I'm old and this is something that makes me smile, now go chase your face.
love it more of you 100 year olds should be on our generation´s videos !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blind Melon is the Keylor Navas of the music....the most underrated band and goal keeper ever 😡
So glad I had the chance to see Blind Melon back in 93 Shannon left this world.way too soon.
I can't believe you don't have more comments. It takes a musician to really understand what we just listened to. The song is incredible
I really loved the '60s hippie revival we seemed to have in music in the early '90s. Bands like Blind Melon and Blues Traveler. I wasn't alive for the first hippie music movement, but I feel blessed I got to see a little piece of it re-emerge. Just wish it would've lasted longer.

This band deserved so much more love !
My favorite band of all time!!! So massively underrated.
Underrated is just the word. Beautiful band!
Blind Melon is still my favorite band to this day. Thanks for the inspiration
. Rest In Peace Shannon
Oh absolutley
the same here
Same !
I only just starting to fall in love with them now. Sad, sad . What a massive presence he was!
Better late then never, Shannon also sings on GNR dont cry video as well if you didn't know
That's really cool, you've got good taste. Soup is also an amazing record, didn't get as much attention but had real rockers, especially the song "Galaxy".
watch "letters from a porcupine" great documentary about the band. That is the tool I used to get all my friends into the band
It's criminal that the only song ever played on the radio by them is No Rain and the other incredible tracks like these get overlooked!!
Even worse when referred to as one hit wonders.
Damn,what a crunchy groove man!
This is one of my favorite Melon songs...... one of many many favorites.
I wonder what he would have written for us if he didn't lose his battle with addiction. F'kin sad
RIP brother..... you are missed!

Absolutely... It was the pinnacle of music in my opinion.

Don't get me wrong there are great bands making rock music still. Most definitely. But the rest...... Uggghhh.
?????
I loved this whole album!! ❤
In the 90's i really love this band ,Shannon has one of the most beautiful voice i 've ever heard!
Dan The Man which is?
@Dan The Man What is it?
Everything is beautiful about Shannon
@@missydeweese2518 right?! My God he was like one of the most beautiful creatures ever created. He was the 8th Wonder of the world...
One of the best classic Blind Melon songs! Rest in peace for eternity Shannon Hoon, so talented!❤
One of the greatest albums of the 90’s sooooo underrated!
Not only the nineties!
It was awesome then new music coming out and waiting to see the videos and really hoping your favorite song off the album would be made into a video. Hopefully by Spike! The most awesome video directors with the most awesome bands it was great when MTV actually played videos!
Rolling around with an half OZ and your friends just rolling J's and jamming out, whoever had the biggest vehicle with the best system was the driver. I had a van with 2 10" subs, 2 12" woofers, a bunch of smaller speakers and 1500 watts, 2 24" black lights and strobes, made everyone listen to all that good music! 🤣
We used to set up the drums in the back, plug in the guitar to the head unit aux input and the bass guitar plugged into the inverter and we'd jam and drive around and watch people looking everywhere for the live band playing and then I'd switch on the interior lights and strobes! 🤣
Superb song. Everything about it is excellent.
Timeless....never gets old....and oh the memories it brings back....❤❤
I am thankful for blind melon every day of my life💙
I was 16 when he died, but way too young to realize how amazing and talented Shannon Hoon was
Underrated gold, everyone I know just remembers that no rain song,it was on HEAVY rotation on the radio and MTV in the early 90s,seems like most people just saw them as a one hit wonder and never dove deeper into their music...shame this whole album was amazing, And their woodstock performance was legendary....rip shannon
Never head this band b4, but feels this band is so underrated. Super band
Great, great song. Somehow bridges 70's style jam bands with modern rock, a slight grunge edge and Shannon sounds a little like the hippie Perry Farrell! What a great band!
Well said
Visiting the family isn't the same without listening to this song on the way. Wish me luck 🤞
Some tones never change. F small minded folks. Their loss. I’m finally free
The drummer really earned his pay on this song!
some of the finest musicians of that era
The last place I’d expect to hear metal from. So much respect and appreciation for this band
tones of home, change, paper scratcher, no rain, sleepyhouse. god bless shannon and the band for bringing this song into the world.
What about their best ever?!? Galaxie!! 😊😍😍😍
my fave - I Wonder
Great combination of funk, grunge and blues!
My jam! Voice of an angel! Excellent band ! Under rated! 💯💯💯❤my opinion
Must agree spread the music 🎶 j.3y.u.
@@johnbjornmedlicott715 thank you for posting! Going to listen again.... you're an angel. I absolutely need and want to hear this right now☮️👍🏽💯❤️
Music lives forever
Great beat and you must to admite awesome drum work
What do you think they would say
If I stood up, and I walked away?
Nobody here really understands me
And so I wave goodbye, I'm fine
I'm fine
[Chorus]
Tones of home
Said, you don't like the way I'm living (You don't like me)
Tones of home, tones of home
(And so I wave) goodbye
I'm flyin'
And I'm flyin' home
Home, home, home
[Verse 2]
And I always thought this would be
See, the land of milk and honey
Oh, but I come to find out that it's all hate and money
And there's a canopy of greed holdin' me down
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
See, I'm so high to you, but don't fade away, oh yeah
I said, you're on your own
Your mom and daddy said
That you sister said
And you brother's saying (what'd your brother say?)
Is saying everybody (everybody)
Is saying everybody
Is saying I-I-I-I gotta go!
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
All my friends patronize me
They say "Yo, hey, boy! Have you found what you're looking for?"
It seems they don't really know me
'Cause it's here
An' it's what they can't see
[Chorus]
Who else wonders what Shannon and the guys could have done if only. Glad I got to see them play back in the day. 💕🙏💕
Amen friend! ✌️👍🏽
Super tight funkadelic! I remember this when it first came out - this is a groove you’ll never forget!
Blind Melon son esas bandas que no importa en que contexto las escuches siempre te ponen de buen humor. Te alegran cualquier día de mierda!! ❤
Completamente cierto 😬👏
Sim! Estou aqui revendo todos os vídeos que eles lançaram e amo as músicas até hoje!
Always makes me smile!
Blind Melon....one of the most talented amazing groups.....Rock On...
This song is done so well, it's almost rock and roll perfection.
How much thier great career could have been, BM what a bunch of AMAZING musicians!! And Shannon what a loss for Rock... 2021 & still we all the fans miss U bro.
The groove is insane
One of the best bands of all time 🤘
This song reminds me how happy I was back in the 90´s dang!
52 yrs old now and this is still one of the greatest albums of my life time. It came out during a very bad period in my life. Addiction and divorce a life of disappointment. I could put this album on fire up a Debbie an all was good . Left this album on repeat
A Debbie😂
I'm 60 and I agree. When I was a baby my dad called me Melon Head. Still a Melon Head! When I die my kids know to play Galaxie for me.
I think it's closer to 30 years old. It was the 90s.
@@avalonisland love that song
Boom!
great band... Eric, Have you ever been on my channel, The Sanity Machine?
Lots of interesting videos. Cheers! :))
Single grooviest song of all time! I love drumming to it.
Great song!
I don't understand why no rain is there most popular song when this song exists
I agree
No Rain came out as a video "The Bee Girl" and people loved it and it became their song.

Yes, the entire album album is great 👍 Fuck the label 😠

One of the best songs ever conceived ...thank you for the inspiration ❤
pretty hard for a band (from any time) to really get this good and tight - truly a gem of the 90s.
Genius, no other word .
Amazing legendary band
They were a brilliant band🌤🍁💕⚓️💖🌤🌤🌤🌤🌤
Still my favorite singer ever. My love to the fam
Probably the greatest song ever created and no one knows it exist
Saw Blind Melon open for The Rolling Stones back in 1994 in Ames, Iowa at Cyclone Stadium, and they pulled this bad ass tune off fantastically! Lots of energy out of the late Mr. Shannon Hoon and band.
RIP Shannon Hoon (September 26, 1967 - October 21, 1995), aged 28
You will be remembered as a legend
Why'd he have to be so damn self-destructive?
And if he _had_ to die tragically young, isn't it a shame he missed being in the 27 Club by less than a month?
@@rosaiglarsh9987 No one heard what he was saying in his songs?
Just like Kurt Cobain. No one was REALLY listening.
I wish I had been aware of each of their music at the time. I would have heard that they were each suicidal due to my training.
Don't know if I could have helped.
Forgot about this song I haven't heard it in over 20 years.it still rocks
My god. Listening to this I realize how overproduced today's popular music is with the autotune and quantization that virtually eliminates all 'feel' and 'soul'. This song speeds up, slows down, comes at you, then hangs back, the singer hits his note but not right away, it just sounds real and true, like you're listening to a single impeccable performance live. The music industry has stripped away all humanity. This was a top 10 hit on Billboard. Good luck finding anything remotely close to this level of art in today's top 10. And I'm not even really a Blind Melon fanboy. This is just a good song, like hundreds of others that came out in that miraculous decade of the 90s.
