"Don't confront me with my failures, I had not forgotten them" Isn't this one of the greatest lines- EVER:) Don't we ALL feel that way?
Remember a family member irritating you by bringing up something from your past. My dad still does it and I'm 59.
Yes
First song of his I ever heard was "Doctor My Eyes," and I thought, Wow, that's different, a little deeper than the usual pop song.......and then I heard this one. He wrote this at 16 or 17? I've been a fan since. This version sounds like a hybrid of the Nico and the Greg Allman versions, if I'm not mistaken this is the original lyric, not choppy like the German chanteuse Nico, but a mellow and bluesy vocal like Greg Allmon. NICE.
For sure!
@@edwardroberts8761
Same here:(
It's amazing how he wrote that at 16, only an old soul could have that much insight. This is one of my favorites by him as well. God bless.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
Mine too mauionion2
Jackson is in his 70s now. He's been singing those lyrics for almost 60 years, but it sounds as if he could have written them yesterday, from the perspective of a person looking back at a long life. Amazing indeed.
Oh, yeah!
Agreed . And he also wrote “ FURTHER ON “ at age 17. Another song with so much wisdom and vision that only an older man can put to words
I'm 68 years old and i can relate to this song. Thanks Jackson browne for letting me grow up with you.
A person can not think that guys like Jaxson brown are a spirit vessel to connect this music to mankind from some out side spiritual force. Bob Dillion commented on this saying he has no idea where it comes from and he was in some zone in his youth and can’t really feel it now .
65 good days huh
@Dan Madden
How could a 16-year-old Jackson Browne right the perfect song for a 63-year-old me?
Estoy de acuerdo. Estas canciones nunca van a pasar de moda. I go back in time, damn! Good old times never going to come back!
Saludos desde Tj. Mx.
I’m a Vietnam veteran who served in 1971-72. That said, Jackson Browne’s words have been a healing ever since I first heard him. Thank you for bringing it home, for the reminders of our humanity. ‘Doctor in my Eyes’
Welcome home hero
Well spoken.
I spoke to a war Veteran yesterday morning... He listed the wars he'd been involved in... Vietnam was one of them in the marines... shame I could spare more time to listen to some of his stories !
I love Jackson Browne and to me he's just as great as Dylan... with lovely melodies in his music ! Dylan is more raw but I love him too as a fighter of PEACE ✌️🕊️❤
Thank you for your service to our country! Be blessed 😇
To write a song like this at 16 years of life is astonishing..just unbelievable. “ Don’t confront me with my failures. I have not forgotten them “ what an artist.
Jackson Browne fans are all “my people”.
One of the greatest songwriters of all time. ❤️
For real!!
I wore the grooves off of my "Saturate Before Using" album by the time I joined the Navy in Feb. 1973. Tangled and destroyed copies on 8 track and cassette followed over the next couple decades. Now, I have it all on CDs backed up as digital files on my pc. My love of his music never died. However, seeing Jackson as an old man is hard for me, for now, I am an old man, too. Life is so bittersweet.
we're all in the same club now... pass the flomax ..
Enjoy the memories y'all & try to continue to make more memories, these days ❤
"I think, most of us , are like Jethro Tull, , Living in the past, and are afraid to face the reality, "Nothing stays the same. " IT seems ,daily, we hear of the passing of another one of our Favorite rock stars, and a piece of us, dies right along with that person. THE separation, is we have these people immortalized, and and embedded in our memories, through our media. THE scratched up 45's , and albums , over played through our teen years, and now, skip so much, they are virtually unplayable. OR the cassettes, and 8 Tracks, that simply self-destruct , through time.... People grow up, and change. But, I think It's hard for us , as fans, to accept the fact, our artists, are changing, too. AND, for too many of them; THEY can't carry a tune, like they did, in their 20's. We see , and hear them, as they were , when we were growing up. Fifty years later; We can barely recognize them.
Dell Shannon, before his passing, in his latter years; was unrecognizable, and struggled to hit that high note, he was so famous for, "IN his hit ,Runaway. " Jonathan Edwards, Procal Harum,. Melanie, .... THE same thing. "The only constant in the universe, is Nothing , stays the same." THE media, we play now, is a time stamp, and a fixed piece of time, and something we can control. THE artists moved on; We didn't. and find it hard to accept this change. THESE amazing people, so talented, were a huge part of our lives, and defined us, as we grew up. THEY were connected to our memories , and were a huge part, of we became.
For me I sadly have now have the privilege of perspective. He is honest that he had written this as a boy/man and you can hear that in the lyrics. No one wants to be confronted with their failures, whatever their age.
I think it's true , for most. We see , and hear , them, in their prime. ( 20's) to 30's) , and pitch perfect, and we immortalize them. "Before the big change. " I have heard, too many artists, struggle , greatly to hit the that high note. Dell Shannon, THE Tokens, "The Lion Sleeps Tonight? THE guy nailed High C. Never again. Tommy Roe,"Dizzy.", Jonathan Edwards, " , Melanie , ALL have huge fan bases ,but, even so. THEY are basically unrecognizable. UNLESS, you've been following them , all their lives. They are basically , not the same people, and too many of the class bands are missing key artists, due to death, or other illnesses. I think what t suprized me; was the total amount bands , that simply didn't exist anymore. THAT me feel old. Have I actually became a Legacy ? The death of Gary Brooker, (Procol Harum) , made me realize, life is too short, and we need to grasp, every minute, because, you don't know, when your number comes up?
Jackson Brown was a prophetic poet even in his teens. Everything he writes seem generationally universal, the same questions at 17 that I still have at 74. And still no answers.
The answers are clutched deep within the stoic individuality that comprises each of own indivisible conscious individuality. If you're looking for something more than you had when you were discerned all things as a child, then you've been hookwinked into the predatory clutches of stuff outside of your own cosmic dominion.
Like Jai Jagdeesch sang for all the children, "know you are loved. Jackson knew he was loved, & I"m grateful for his cosmic recording of the eternal experience....
I think Jackson was born an old soul. Writing lyrics like that at 16-17.
My weight leaves the chair I'm sitting in as I go back to the first time I heard this tune...
Amen Brother. Jackson is one in an infintesimal amount of numbers. ❤❤❤
"Don't confront me with my failures; I had not forgotten them." Simplicity of expression, depth of thought. How were you even operating on that level of awareness at 16 years old?
Merry Christmas, Jackson. Thanks for everything.
Great quote
That Line resonated with me too
Some of us were thinking just those thoughts and living just that at 16...
some 16 year olds are deep man.
It was a different time. No internet and lots of down time to think without all the noise of the world today.
Forget the Rock and Roll hall of fame , America needs a place where we can name a few people as “National Treasures “ people like Dolly Parton , Willie Nelson , Patsy Kline ,Roy Orbison and Jackson Brown bring nothing but good for America.
So true!! 🇺🇸
A m e n !
Jackson Browne, I just want to tell you I absolutely love your music.
Especially this song.
I'm 23 years old from Coventry, England, UK.
I was raised by my grandparents, and I grew up listening to their favourite songs and artists, and although I must admit, that I didn't always appreciate their tastes as much when I was very little, I definitely do now.
They introduced me to so many outstanding artists and I certainly feel like their tastes have rubbed off on me and certainly influenced my own music. (guitarist)
🤝🏻
I just wanted to say thank you for all your incredible talent, and all the great memories learning your songs.
Jackson Browne has been in my life forever… As a young parent we had “Sunday morning breakfast and Jackson Browne music.”. My grandkids now celebrate with waffles and Jackson Browne songs. This man’s music accompanied my husband thru his death. Jackson Browne will always be my family.
Hello Christine how are you doing?
God bless you
Goosebumps! Kennedy Center Honor for Jackson Browne !
Every year! My Friend in the biz should present it, his biggest fan maybe I'm so greatful he turned me on to Mr Jackson Browne who soothes my soul especially during the last 2years a gift really🙏🏽🌾🌹☀️
Is this going to be a reality and if so, when???!!!
This song.
"Don't confront me with my failures"
That line
Gave me courage to walk away from an abusive family
.
Thank you for sharing it.
I'm 65 now.
Free
Bless you and yours.🐦🌹💯🙏
Hi Jackson. I have enjoyed your songs and music from my time as a student at Stony Brook University (NY) in the late 1960s. We crossed paths there several times in the H-dorm (you were not a student there) and even played on the same gig for two university sponsored concerts. I was in a duo with several names (Bill & Willie and later as Abelard & Dr. Jones). Later (circa 1970) on the West coast you opened up for Hamilton Camp when I was his lead guitarist at two folk clubs (in LA and Orange County). Finally, I spent several hours at your apartment in Echo Park practicing with Penny Nichols for a gig also in Southern Cal (you were not there). In all those times our paths crossed, I am not sure we ever spoke- but at 76 my memory is not the greatest. Thank you for your incredible songs and equally incredible efforts to help others in need. I published my first songs when I was 18 (you beat me by a couple of years) and have been a semi-pro and amateur songwriter on and off for nearly 6 decades. None are in the same category as yours but at least I have experienced the multitude of feelings one shares in writing and performing one's songs. Thank you for sharing yours . They have made this world a much better place. Bravo!
Anyone whoever got to work in the studio with Jackson saw pure emotional genius.
I've been listening to him since we were both kids. His lyrics have had a huge impact on my life. Always glad to hear him. Last two lines of this song -- OMG! They still hit me full force.
OMG! Writing this at 16 what a gifted man.. the line.. don’t confront me with my failures.. I’ve not forgotten.. whew! So talented .
Thanks for your consistent love and support towards me on my page, I really appreciate and can’t thank you enough. Write me with the address above so we can have more positive conversations about music and life in general 🥂💙
Baracades of heaven,also a great!
Dr. my eyes,what a genious!
Wow, what an old soul. So wise.❤❤❤
love you, Jackson! my old girlfriend grew up in hollywood in the late 60's/early seventies, and spotted Jackson driving and followed him home. once she saw where he lived, she went home, baked some cookies, and edrove back. she knocked on the door, he invited her in, and they chatted over cookies and milk.. what a guy!!!!
My x husband who died ten years ago
Loved listening to Jackson . Saw him many times .
Now when i listen to This I understand him more .
So sorry pat . Miss you .
Jackson, I’m 60 years old now, back to when I was around 8 years old, my mom would play you album ‘ late for the sky’, since then you have been one of my favorite voices to listen to. Great songwriting and poetry in your vision. Saw you a few years ago at the northridge performance arts theatre.. you were still stylin your younger long hair and the show was amazing… love the mature look you’re sporting now. Your music touches my soul
Thank you
JB, your poetry has helped me get through life.
I'm 59. Listened to big brothers JB albums.
It is arguably, the best line in a song.
That would make Jackson about a 115 years old....
@@133rip hahaha. The album was in late 70s-early 80…I did the math. This fan is 40 years old something or Jackson is now 115 years old…
This takes me back to the 80’s and driving the backroads of Georgia and Alabama with my friend Susan Freeman and singing along to Jackson Browne!
Hello Nicole how are you doing?
Hola Nicole👋 mi nombre es Ernesto soy Uruguayo🇺🇾 nací en 1985, cresi mirando sus películas y hermosa musica Americana, como la de Jackson, lo único que puedo hacer es soñar con esas carreteras y lugares paradisiacos como tu lo hacías en realidad en esos años 80 acompañada de tu gran amiga, por esas carreteras perdidas esos caminos sin fin. Muchos saludos desde 🇺🇾 para 🇺🇸✌Nicole👋
@@EM-zx4lq so you didn’t have your own roads to travel and music to listen to in Uruguay.
No tours in the South. !!!!! 4 concerts in NY . I just saw the Eagles in Houston. Awesome. I love JB. Come on down to the South!!!!!!
I first head this song when I was a teenager. I'm 58 and still listening. He has a permanent place in my heart.
Merry Christmas, Jackson! You wrote the soundtrack to my life! Not long after I made that same comment on one of your videos in March 2021, I went into sudden heart failure. Never had heart problems before. Rarely drink, don't smoke or do illicit drugs (not for many, many years.) Was very active in my younger years. (Listen up, ladies: Heart disease is known as the "silent killer of women." My only symptoms were nausea, slight shortness of breath and a light gnawing unrelenting pressure on my chest (not pain) after waking in the middle of the night covered in sweat, soaked to the bone. I'm a retired medical assistant so I knew the signs were not favorable so called 9-1-1 and spent a week in the hospital, alone (no visitors due to covid.) It was surreal. I'm OK now. No surgery. Just have to take heart pills now and limit salt and fluids. Then Jackson went and wrote My Cleveland Heart. You have my heart, Jackson. We are kindred souls and you don't even know it. I can't afford to attend any concerts (my hospital bill was over $100,000-still waiting on insurance to cover their portion-I was already poor) but I wish you well, ALWAYS. Hope the New Year brings you good health, joy, laughter and love. Enjoy every sandwich.
I’m glad to know your feeling and doing better. Mind if I ask, had you received any of the covid vaccines prior to your heart failure?
Bless you
So glad to hear your ok.....
Starwind That’s what I want to know,too. I imagine she did:( so sad and wrong..
@@novakaya Don't try to make this into your crazy conspiracy theory shit.
@@im4everskilled not sure how you mean. Have we met before? Your projecting pretty hard man
So in your world the idea that sometimes people have injuries from things like vaccines is a conspiracy theory? You’ll have to explain what you mean man because that seems pretty over the top to me. Are you not able to cognitively hold the concept in your mind that injuries happen from especially newer medical treatments without it being a conspiracy?
An old favorite! I played your tunes in the old cook shack at Rolling Thunder's in 1976! You are better than ever!
I love how easily his hands find the music.
It’s natural for him🙏
At 16 to write a song that i can relate to at 54 is mind blowing. Thank you Jackson Browne for sharing and blessing my soul 😢😊❤
love how he remembers all the detailed nuances of over a half century of subtle changes to this brilliant song
Jackson I met you on stage in Glasgow by surprise- your sacred music is the soundtrack to my childhood 🤍🙏🕊
This man looks better in his 70s than I do in my 40s.
Our daughter sent us a text yesterday to say the best thing about our Christmas this year as a family was being in the kitchen on Christmas day all together and listening to Jackson Browne...thank you for all your music...and please come back to Ireland... Maggie in Ballina County Mayo.
'Don't confront me with my failures. I had not forgotten them.' A classic line that resonates with all of us through life.
Give this man his flowers while he's still with us!!!! ❤
Jack wrote the best song in history. It is not even close.
"Don't confront me with my failures, I have not forgotten them". I've had these thought provoking words written on a Post-it note on my computer monitor for several years now and I look a them every day. During that time I've gone through several changes in my life - COVID, a divorce after 20+ years of marriage, health issues, a new relationship, etc. Along the way, I will always carry the mistakes made in my life with me, but I won't dwell on them or let them define me. In fact, they've made me a better man, a better partner, a better father, a better person. We learn from our mistakes. We learn (hopefully) not to make them again, but we also grow from them into a better version of ourselves. Great song and a great and meaningful bit of lyrics with very deep meaning in my life! It's amazing that he wrote them at sixteen.
Hearing you do this song reminds me that your music is as wonderful today as it was 50 years ago!
Another song of my life that rings so true...
I lost my dad a couple years ago. For these 5 minutes I felt him here again with me. Thank you.
Let's All band together and realize Artists like Jackson Browne, Don Henley and more are America's Heartbeat.
Beautiful eyes, beautiful smile, beautiful laugh. 💜
The beautiful music comes from that beautiful heart.
🌼 Your gentle spirit feeds my gentle spirit. Nourishment for a starving soul. 🌿
Forty six years ago I heard "These Days" for the first time as my first Jackson Browne song. It has carried with me since as my favorite song. Earlier this year I saw Jackson Browne in concert in Central California and his music, new and old, is as magical as ever. I am so grateful for his songs and story telling, it has always meant so much to me.
🔮Who else is thinking about all of their yesteryears? I❤️"Jackson Browne"!
🇨🇦🎶❤️🇺🇸✨🌎💫
Hello Rainsongmama how are you doing?
As like a brother, father, friend, and teacher; this man's song has filled voids in my life for decades.
Thank you, JB
This New Yorker want's to thank you for sharing your amazing music with us. Wishing everyone who watches A safe and healthy New year.
An american born in Germany wrote with 16 years one of the most astonishing songs about failures in live and the first released version on vinyl is by a german supermodel named Nico. What a story...
Jackson, you were always my favorite singer-songwriter since my late brother Tim brought your Pretender album home one day in 1976. I went on to see you as my first concert in 1977. Thank you so much for this moving music that continues to touch our souls.
Love Jackson B, saw him in Knoxville Tn years ago, this song has always been my favorite!
One of my many favorites from this exceptionally talented man. Merry Christmas 🌲🙏
Class act a genuine man of amazing talent!!
how does a 16 year old write a song with the wisdom of an elder? thank you for this. again.
He's about the most talented musician out there. Saw him the first time in 76 in Florida and left a lifelong fan. We've seen him a couple times in Seattle and his voice is still as beautiful as 45 years ago. Thank you for this...what a gift.
@Austin Howland great
@Austin Howland hi Austin. Where are you? Happy 2022
Jackson…you and your music are timeless. I am blessed to have had you along for the ride. Never stop making music my friend.
Thank you Jackson. Your show with James Taylor at Saratoga Performing Arts Center was a highlight in an otherwise strange year. It’s is so generous of you to share these moments on TH-cam with us. Please wish all of friends and band mates a “Happy Holidays” from all of us. As long as we have music we can take whatever the new year brings.
Saw him with JT at the BB&T Center in Camden NJ in August. A very special concert and evening.
The picture over his left shoulder is the photo for the Late For The Sky album cover which I think is one of his best albums.
Saw JB & JT at Bethel woods in August this summer! My favorite performer, JB of all time!
@@ellenmahony2457 Gotta ask; Did he do "After The Deluge" there??
You are a fine artist. I'm grateful for your works. May God bless and keep you always
Your voice and music remind me of the times that I would be on the road listening to your songs at three or 4 o’clock in the morning driving to the next show and my best friend and drummer Chuck who is no longer with us. Your voice and music remind me of those days my friend.
Great song, thank you! Happy and safe days ahead… Bob
The first JB song I learned on guitar. Still on my playlist! ☮🌎
I ran into him at a James Taylor concert many years back. I walked up and handed him a James Taylor matchbook we had had made up to give away as mementos. He just looked at me, smiled and said "Wow this is truly an artifact, I will keep it always" I never forgot that.....
I saw JB when I was a kid and he was too. What a talented guy!!! Great poet and musician.
Hi Everyone. I'm 76. Jackson touched my soul when I was in my 20's and ever. Ever since. I love this beautiful man and his music fervently from the depths of my being. God bless him always and his incredible beautiful music.
That was a nice Merry Christmas present. Thank you!!
I have a great photo of Jackson during the early 80's taken when in Mass. performing at Tanglewood. (It was while shopping for clothes nearby) . Great concerts there always too.
His reminiscing laugh in the end was priceless.
Love this Song. Late for the Sky...is a good album. 👍 also Like Linda Paloma off that album. Merry Christmas 🤶 🎄 ❤
With much love to a beloved fellow veteran of all the decades since the '60s in California, Jackson 💛
I am so happy that you're in the here and now, and still gracing us with your beautiful light my friend. I was always crushing on you...😉
Hope your Christmas is filled with love, laughter, and peace
💖✨🌹😘🌹✨💖
When Paul Westerberg covers your song, you know it’s a good one. Thanks for giving it to us.
I graduated from high school in 1980 and I listened to a lot of Jackson Browne and James Taylor. That was half of my high school soundtrack because these were my girlfriend's favorites. I had listened to mostly Led Zepplin and Aerosmith. This music however did grow on me. Listening now to Jackson as he has aged and weathered like all of us makes me think in some ways of how those times were precious but we really did not know it. Life seemed to be much simpler then pre 9-11. Just listening to him talk like a regular person is somewhat amazing ( like Ferris Bueller talking to us on his day off ) Everyone has posted how powerful his music is and how it has made an impact on our lives and just pausing and being thankful for how his songs have been the backdrop of our moving through this life has been a nice little vacation.
Very Pretty "These Days", Merry Christmas Jackson Browne 😁
Thanks for ALL the great music, Jackson. Your music touches my soul and inspires me, and has for over 50 years.
Wow, I’m crying. I first listened to you my first year of college, 1974. I had a big crush on you! And your voice is still gorgeous 😭💜💐
So sweet... perhaps moreso now that we've all moved on, so far, so far we've travelled through our lives...
I love Nico's twist on it JB. Thanks for this dose of REALity.
What a gift today. One of my favorite songs. Thank you.
Thank you for everything and Merry Christmas ❤️🎄
It just gets better. Seeing Jackson in Napa the end of last year he was different, great different. Now all these videos of his songs, most of them I've played with friends and roomies way back. This one made me weapy. A tear well spent...these days
This popped up, I listened, grabbed my guitar, and did it one more time for myself.
Dear JACKSON, thank you for your music 💥💕💞💖🎁
Hello Yama how are you doing?

Thank you Jackson . This song - just like you - just never gets old.
Here after watching the Bob Saget tribute on Netflix. Beautiful performance and song.
I used to listen to this on a cassette tape I made from a radio broadcast in 1971 when I was in Fullerton. This song and "The Late Show" were my songs that helped heal some bad wounds. Thank you, Jackson Browne.
What a beautiful Christmas present, Jackson! Thank you so much for sharing!😌🎸🎶👏🏼 Hope to see you in concert in Germany! 🎶♥️🎶
...allerdings❗❗❗💕💕🤩
This is my favourite JB song of all time. It brings tears to my eyes. I first heard it as a teenager and now I’m in my mid-50s. It still moves me as it once did. Thank you for uploading!
If you can't get a song across with just vocals and guitar, it's usually crap! What a gem of a song. Vocals sound as good as they ever did, even better in some aspects. As my dad would say, 'Jackson's still got the pipes.' Carry On J.B.
'Take it Easy' my dear young man. I'm running on empty but will see you Christchurch New Zealand in 2023.❤️🇳🇿👍 If you want to stay a little bit longer, I have room at my play.
This is my favorite Jackson Browne song!
Oh God Jackson, it is so good to see you smiling and laughing after playing a song of your's from so long ago that has been close to my heart for almost fifty years now. I hope you have a wonderful day and night, and all of those that follow Christmas. Thank you Jackson Browne, you made my day, and made me laugh and smile.
How does a young teen have enough wisdom and experience to write lyrics like that!
Just possibly the most sublime songwriter of our time, or of any time
Jackson Brown is in my all time Top 5….I’ve heard These Days before on my Jackson Brown Pandora station👍
Very cool original version Jackson! I’m sure Nico is smiling and singing along on the other side. 💕
Amazing. I saw Jackson in 1996 in Saratoga Springs, and it was one of the best concerts I have ever seen. Right there with Neil Young, and Mellancamp for American songwriters.
This song is truly a gift that keeps on giving. What an artist.
Jackson is such an accomplished musician. Had a great influence over the Eagles. His words are amazing for such a young man
Love how he adlibbed/rewrote it to suit "these days"
When I was 20, I remember telling my big sister that I liked this musician. That Christmas, she would gift me with The Pretender. I always felt The Pretender was his pinnacle and Court And Spark was Joni's pinnacle. 74 and 76. A time when The Bee Gees pretty much owned the airwaves. Talk about cutting through the mix.
Always loved that one. Hearing it makes wish my wife hadn't thrown all my albums away, including many of yours.
