LYRICS:
Well I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had the chance to
And I had a lover
It’s so hard to another these days
These days
Now if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It's just that I've been losing so long
I’ll keep on moving
Things are bound to be improving these days
These days
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don’t confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
Songwriters: Browne Jackson
These Days lyrics © Swallow Turn Music, Open Window Music - เพลง
My girlfriend at the time, my future wife, introduced me to Jackson Browne in 1973. I’ve been his biggest fan ever since. My beautiful wife passed away last October. Now, when I hear his songs, especially this one, I cry, not because of the sadness I feel, but because of the beautiful memories they bring.
So sorry for your deep loss after such a long life together 🥺
I am so sorry for your loss. When I first heard Jackson Browne ( as late as 1978) I was blown away. I've followed the music all my life. Do you believe in the Afterlife? I didn't but now I do. There is so much science that pointe to the reality of the Subtle Dimension. I do believe you will meet your dear lady again and never be parted. Till then, sir, may you walk your days in peace..
Aah that’s so sad but somehow I don’t know lovely when music touches the soul you just transcend as does the love of your life, remember and smile x
Condolences, Stephen.
Stephen M - thanks for sharing what you did. Sorry about your wife's passing and agreed JB is much of the soundtrack of my life. Best to you!
"Don't remind me of my failures, I have not forgotten them." The one line that stuck with me all my life.
I don't do that much gambling these days.
Same friend.
No--we don't ever forget our failures--we just keep moving forward!
My sentiments exactly
Mary Beth, trust me when I say, it’s a big club! I’m pretty sure it has stuck with everyone who’s ever heard it. The fact that he wrote it at such a young age, has always blown me away. Regards
Guy wrote this when he was about 16 and is singing it in his mid-70s. What a journey he has been on with this song.
Seems like he never moved on.
@@nancymathews8685 Deep humour!
How is it possible for someone to put the alphabet in such an order to form these words? To say that every time I hear this song I am really moved would be an understatement. I can not thank you enough.
Written when he was a teen - so wise and poignant. One of the great JB songs.
Sixteen correct
@@brandmives Hard to believe a 16 yo wrote these lyrics.
I was thinking the same exact thing. This song speaks to me so much more now at 53. it blows my mind a 16-year-old could be so insightful. Anyway, this is my new favorite version!
Jackson a great song 🙏🏻about yesterday, today and tommorow .🙏🏻
WoW, thank you. Your referral to him as JB drew another tear from my eye; realizing that he & Jimmy Buffett have the same initials. They are both very talented, gifted artists that God gifted the world with & their lives in this world will continue through their unique words & sounds. ~
Jackson is like red wine. Gets better the older he gets.
And you just enjoy drinking it also...wherever you listen to it..
Jackson Browne has always been an old soul. He tells of the feelings that we try to describe but have no words for. He is a generation's laureate.
"Don't confront me with my failures. I have not forgotten them." What a powerful lyric.

Indeed.
Yesh!
Every morning when I wake
Hard to believe he wrote that at sixteen. Blows me away.
I think that this is the best recorded version of this song that I've heard. It just seems even more poignant coming from an elder, and the band....perfection.
My mind exactly.
.
i was thinking the same and also now at 67 how this song is so relevant and why as a 20 yeear old it was just as relevant.
@@bdubyou55 Ditto for me. Looking at 67 shortly. All his work resonates timelessly for me. Incredible.
What’s amazing is, he wrote this at age 16.
I cry (at 80) hearing Jackson. How would I manage without him, he is such a HUGE part of my life, especially the early days.Please life, let me go first.
I can’t listen to this song without crying.
Same for me at 79yo
Me too 🙏❤️. 72
Me too, just 25...
Me at 62 , well folks looks like we’re all in this together.
Ever since I heard "Doctor My Eyes" in Vietnam on armed forces radio in 1972 I've been a devotee of his. He speaks for us all at some point in every song.
Thank you for your service in Vietnam I am so impressed with the veterans from that Era. I was running around drinking partying and shooting the peace sign. I am so sorry for being an idiot.
Wow. I can’t imagine. But my parents are WWIIVets. We used to say rosaries “for the boys”. You will always be the boys to us.
Agreed.
They're war criminals who illegally invaded a small country that wanted it's freedom for 50+ years. Every President said no and Truman gave it back to France in '45. Every killer who went their should grovel for forgiveness for the brutality they left and landmines still exploding to this day. Yeah, they kept the VietCong from invading Texas. @@margaretcook1839
Thank you for your service 🇺🇸
Master songwriter. Artist extraordinaire. Such a beautiful body of work. Been in my life and tape deck, man, how long, 50 plus years? The journey has gone by so quickly. Beautifully done, Jackson, as always.
I thought your comments about the Journey and 50 plus years were poignant and it reminded me of line in The Pretender... "I've been aware of the time going by, They say in the end, its the wink of an eye" I am in my 50's now and listened to Jackson for 40 plus years. It's a shame that the awareness of Life's deeper meanings we have later in life isn't part of our understanding when we are young.
@@jhodges1369 Thank you. Yeah, Jackson was right. It is the wink of an eye.
Things did run past kind of quick, didn't they. Seems like yesterday I was nodding my head to "Running on Empty." "Looking into their eyes I see them running too." Cheers.
They say in the end, it’s a blink of an eye
@@jhodges1369 Or it's just as well, depending on how you look at it. To have full 'awareness of Life's deeper meanings' at a very young age might just stop a lot of people living wide while they have the time and health to do so. Also in my experience most of them are truly individually learned by experience - so there's that ;-) Jackson's beautifully crafted music stands alongside above all that and represents a mature and wistful look at life with all its vicissitudes - and for the thinking listener, I believe it always will.
I heard Jackson in college,sold my electric guitar and bought an acoustic never missed hard rock . Thank you Jackson for all the great music for the last 49yrs
I was turned on to Jackson by my brothers when I was 11. Now at 63 I so wish I could see him in concert. The limits I have these days may prevent that but I'm still trying. Thank you Jackson for one of the soundtracks of my life.

I saw him about 5 years ago in an outdoor venue. It was laid back and just such a great evening. I hope you get to see him.
“Don’t confront me with my failures, I have not forgotten them.” Just wow.
One of the most brilliant songwriters of the last 60 years! Still amazing.
Ever ❤
I mowed yards to buy albums For Everyman was #2 I was 12 yrs old.
" And ths children solemnly wait for the ice cream vendor" Brings back memories of my older briother and I on a hot Florida day chasing the ice cream truck in the late 70's. Life gets messy and we dont talk much anymore. I hope he still runs after the ice cream truck when it comes around.
Same memory, but with a sister that choose to leave our family. Life gets messy indeed when you live a long time.
Jackson Brown is not just going thru the motions no matter how many times he does a song. Every song every time seems he’s sharing part of himself.
Jackson Browne, the great lyricist! He combines words in such a profound way. Saw him and James Taylor in Portland, OR a couple of years ago and James Taylor mentioned that so often, the audience was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. A tribute to Jackson’s profound words. Such a talent! All these musicians are the absolute best!
Both Greg’s and Val’s guitar work on this song are beautiful … their solos and their interplay at the end. I also agree that an older, more mature, and slightly weathered Jackson Browne adds gravitas and poignancy to the lyrics more so than the teen who wrote the song. Great performance!
Thank you for mentioning Gregg. This song was written with him in mind to sing it.
Heavenly
What a North Star in the world.
“There are many ways of breaking a heart. Stories were full of hearts broken by love, but what really broke a heart was taking away its dream - whatever that dream might be.”
Pearl S. Buck
This song means even more to me now sung by an older JB-life lessons run through those lyrics.
Hello 👋, Carroll sweetie 💋, how are you doing please were are you from?
My brother , it is so so clear, why you were put on this Earth . You have touched so many lives and have been a comfort to all of us who speak on these pages of your posts . You are so loved JB ; by so many who have shared this lifelong journey with you . Thank you for coming around to see us as much as you do. Even the shortest of hours seeing and listening to you in the same room sets me on such a natural high.
🌅🎑🌠❤️
💓
I'm still in love with his voice and musical poetry. Who isn't?
Still Powerful and Calming in a strange way
Agree.
Perfect description 👌
Yes, exactly.
My favorite composer. Jackson has encapsulated life in California. I grew up near him. Orange County and Los Angeles. We love him. He is our gem. We adore his storytelling and we want to walk with him silently. He is these days forever
So beautiful! Part of my life for over 40 years. The sound of his voice and lyrics touches the soul.
How True !!!
Agreed ! Beautiful song by a great artist 💖
Iv been lucky enough for his music to be part of my life for over 40 years too, & how true about his music/lyrics touching the soul.
Same with me Jack. Where's the time gone?..
“These days I sit on corner stones and count the time in quarter tones…..”, lines like that keep me interested in life.
Poetry
I hope this is not a silly story to tell…this song just always brings me back to this moment in time. It lessons of this song seemed so poignant at the time as they still do and always will. Way back in the mid 70’s, I was 15 and went out to a party with a guy I worked with. It was June and a beautiful early summer evening. Live music and beer, open fields and moon shadows. It was out on a farm and we got parked in(we were not really upset about it at the time🙂) and I didn’t get home until 3AM. My mom’s stare upon me sleeping woke me up in the morning! 😱 I was told I was grounded for the summer. I spend much of my days sitting under a big old oak tree in our backyard listening to this song over and over from my little battery operated tape recorder. I was so remorseful. 😪 After about 2 weeks my mom asked me why I was hanging around the house all the time. I apparently had earned my redemption and my freedom.🙂 It felt like a step in growing up…and remains timeless to this day.
Very nice thoughts and powerful too !
Nice coming out story bro
@@davidkoplitz1969 - Thank you.💕
Great story, thanks.
That’s an awesome story! You got a great mama!
I hope he never gets tired of playing this because I’ll never tire of listening to it!! ❤❤❤❤
Search a poignant song. I believe that everyone can relate to it in one way or another. Thank you so much for this gift
Quite possibly the best version of this fine song he's ever recorded.
This song from your youth has even more meaning now. Funny how that happens. ❤
My all time favorite Jackson Browne song. Better than ever! Thanks for everything...
Mine as well. "I wonder if I'll see another highway?" You probably know that the song has been covered by 50 esteemed singers. This is going into the American Songbook.
Great version of a truly wonderful song, complete with the extra verse. I hope you see a lot more highways.
That line slays me. I moved to the middle of nowhere. "I wonder if I'll see another highway."
Love this song, it's lyrics speak to me. The look on Jacksons face and the tone he sings it in makes me think it means something different to him today vs when he was writing it at 16. Stick around JB
i have listen jacken browne since i was young.i am now 62 this song means a lot to me.these dayes.i listen to a wide rage of music these days but cant get past this song and to go and whatch other songs it keeps pulling me back.i have watched film clip so many times.
Me too!
This was my mother's favorite Jackson song. I still can't get through listening to it without a lump in my throat and tearing up remembering her. Thank you Mr. Browne

❤ listened since 1974
Excellent performance!! I have been listening to Jackson since 1974--and he still sounds awesome!! XOXOXO
Geez. How could it get better than this?! All my life I have been listening to Jackson's music yet here it is even better than ever! Simply put, Jackson is a minstrel for the ages
Well written post. This is the first version of the song I've heard. Now I've also heard it by Gregg Allman, Elliott Smith, Nico and Saint Vincent. It is American Songbook.
A poet.
So great to see that Jackson is coming to New Zealand next year can’t wait for the Wellington show
Hopefully in Perth Australia as well
Over 50 years of many life events, you were my best friend. Thank you (and crew) for the best company. ~❤
The first time the opening bars hit my ears, I felt a tug that strengthens with every listen. Jackson's humanity humbles me... he humbles all of us in the most profound mystical way.
And I. A perfect composition in every way.

A masterpiece song that will and has stood the test of time… ❤️
A huge part of my youth. Thank You Jackson Browne
It's hard to even think of anything to say about this that would be enough. ♥️
So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song. How are you?
Right, superlatives fail on this one.
I remember when he first released this song. I sadly loved it then, and I love it still. Thank you sooooo much. I like Gregg Allman's version , too. But to me, this will always be Jackson's song. Such a human song. Thanks for posting. And thanks for the song.
He wrote this when he was only 16. That is pretty extraordinary depth for such a young man. This has always been one of my favorites from his legacy ❤
I love music that is clean, meaningful, and not over-produced. I feel every word of that song...cause there aren't that many days left!
I thought your comment "aren't that many days left" was poignant and it reminded me of a line in The Pretender... "I've been aware of the time going by, They say in the end, its the wink of an eye" I am in my 50's now and listened to Jackson for 40 plus. It's a shame that the awareness of Life's deeper meanings we have later in life isn't part of our understanding as younger men.
He paints landscapes of life.
To see Jackson Brown these days make me think of how old we all are. That loved Jackson Brown as we seen him get famous. the 70s was great .
--- my beautiful Jackson --- - my favorite song ---- - your beautiful in my thoughts always thinking--- - ❤️🎸🎉🎶--- it’s love of a man --- far far away--- but not in my dreams--- - ----- -
Hello 👋, Beautiful Lady 🌹..how are you ?
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 🥂💙
I saw Jackson Browne when he was relatively unknown when he opened for the band America with his album “saturate before using”. He blew everyone away and was so much better than the lead band America.
Been a fan for decades, ever since the first album. A unique songwriter.
Never forget me --- and I will never for get you --- ❤️
Hello 👋, Snow sweetie 💋, beautiful how are you doing?
Before I met my wife she ventured to America in '87 in hopes of seeing Springsteen and Browne concerts...she returned home without seeing either perform. Next year (2023) Jackson Browne is scheduled to perform in New Zealand...we will so be there!
Thanks for all the wonderful videos on TH-cam!
Just so beautiful, I never tire of hearing it
Jackson Browne is a music legend who churns me just like when I first heard him through a dearest friend who departed too early. I also love how that he always brings highly talented musicians to play with him. Greg Leisz, for instance, is an American artistic treasure. God bless.
I LITERALLY LIVED BY THOSE incredible words- "Dont confront me with my failure ,for I have have not forgotten them" Such prolific lyrics JACKSON is my Shakespeare - Don't confront me with my failures failures........
From listening to vinyl in HS on the record player till today JB is still keeping me company. One of my favorite influencers. Thank you, Jackson, forever and always 🙏💛💕
Hello 👋 dear, how are you doing today?

His early albums shaped my childhood ….beautiful music and lyrics that touched my soul then and still…..thank you Jackson Browne❤️
❤ I can't ever listen just once.. rewind👍 Beautiful live performance, as always! Thank you so much Guys❣
Easily one of the best songs ever written.
I had the GREAT honor of meeting my ALL time poetic singer songwriter in RI Colt State Park when the scaffolding failed (just prior to the start of the show), BEST day of my teenage life 80’s
Always get in a mellow mood in These Days.
Listening and loving JB again, and again. He’s just so soulful!
I just adore the added lyrics as he ages. Relatable.
This song makes me wish I could go back in time. Not to change anything,but to relive some of the best times I have lived in my 69 yrs.
Saw him the summer after HS graduation, 1975, at Tanglewood…$4.00 lawn seats…first of many of his shows!
It breaks my heart to hear him losing his voice and range, but I'd still give anything to see him live again. I remember hearing that song probably 50 years ago and how much it meant to me. One of the greatest songwriters (and singers) ever.
I don’t think I would ever tire of hearing any of his work. Bravo Mr. Browne
Sublime ✨
Even with his bit of "aging" touch in his voice, I believe he's singing better than ever now, doing amazing lives.... ❤️
We love you here in Mississippi, have since the early 70's;))
Same goes for Texas
Just a perfect dart to the heart. Just what we want music to do.
Dart To The Heart…great Bruce Cockburn album
@@markkindermannart4028 indeed, shows the power of a good lyric
A dart to the heart. Well written. This is transcendent music.
My wonderful wife passed away also recently. I have no eloquent words sufficient to describe the loss we all feel these days and nights
Jackson never aged …. he was always remarkably sage …. even at the incipient time of life that spawned such pure poetic effusions …. Timeless
Sometimes you just can’t beat a good player on a telecaster behind a great song. The fills and lead on this are just SO tasteful.
First heard the song when i was 15 now i'm 60 wow wow wow from 🇲🇾 with 💚
This song is in my Top 10, am 77, heard a lot of good stuff.
New 2nd verse with an older man's perspective. Thanks Jackson.
Hello 🤗, Beautiful Lady 🌹..how are you doing today..?
This is actually the 'Nico variant/alternate version'.
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 🥂💙
I soooo love every song you wrote. There is no one I feel so strongly for,well that's. Behind Gregg Allman and John Lennon. I feel very blessed to live in the era of your incredible creations. TY 💕
I second that Nancy. We’ve had it so good for so long, growing up with music that still inspires.
@@ronaldelliott4373 Thanks Ronald. Hope they are all up there when I finally get there. Rock and Roll Heaven is what I call it nowadays. Gives me someone else to look forward to. Stay safe out there. Be well! ✌️
It’s a crime JB only has 118k subs. Dudes…he is a music legend
Written nearly sixty years ago. This is as good as I have heard it, burnished from a life lived.
He still sounds so good
Yeah dear, so how are you doing?
I’ve loved him for forever♥️ Last saw him in Seattle in 1987. I will see him again tomorrow night outdoors at a winery in Seattle. His music has been the backdrop to my life.
Love this man and his songs ❤️
Hello 👋
Good Morning from South Western Michigan ✨️ 😀 Thank you for gracing us with your voice, ageless...
🌿🌻🌿♐️🫂💜🌿🌻🌿
Hello, polly sweetie 💋.how are you doing?
Fantastic older man version of one of the most sublime songs . Always been there in my consciousness ever since I first heard it so many decades ago.
This man. He is a national treasure. He writes music that touches the soul. Words that are felt in the heart. I saw him a few years ago and how grateful I am that I did. Seeing him under the stars at Pinewood Bowl in Lincoln, Nebraska was the perfect setting. Thank you, Jackson, for the music.
GOODEBUMPS!!!... ...
Thank you so much... 🎼💙
Nice Sunday afternoon porch music.
Stunningly beautiful song and tasteful playing by the band.
Jackson saved so many hopeless it's astounding. Amazing to have followed him for many years and witness his fabulous growth! His buddy Val is an amazing/growing talent as well... MOST complimentary (like Lindley!) AND ALL the backup vocals and slide guitarist! Never stop. Come see us in Boulder, CO (Red Rocks) We love you! AND thank you!
Just beginning to appreciate this guy. Im just getting older!
SIR JACKSON brother you still got MUSIC 🎶 🎵 🙌 👌 🙏 MAGIC never stop THANK YOU FOR BEING ARAY OF HAPPY MY BROTHER. 😊 😃 GOD Bless YOU & FAMILY .
So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song. How are you?
I loved your music 45 years ago. I listened to your albums and sang along. I am 65 now and I still love your music. Just wish I could see you in concert but I am immunocompromised. So I look for you on the internet. Thanks for putting this on TH-cam.💗

Ditto I saw him live on Long Island NY, my home. I live is SC now, and heading North soon. Love it!!!
Why is that in all of the nearly 50 years I've heard this song, it NEVER gets old; and in fact, its many insights continue unfolding with the wisdom and experience that life brings. From such a young period of his life, a song he wrote beyond his personal experience remains rich and full of poignant depths.
