It hits home with me. Alcohol has affected my life in very bad ways and good in a sick way. Some of the times I was drinking and getting high I met wonderful people. I cherish it.
My friends told me to slow down and sober up so I did. They didn't and now they're all gone. I thank God every day for the second chance, my family and new healthy friendships. Much love to you all
My Joey died on September 28, 2003 Damn it still hurts. We were together since we were 17…. It’s been almost 20 years and I still can’t get past it ♥️♥️♥️
pure intensity and power ... this song was the '90's for me. so many mistakes. so many wrong decisions. so much. so many great times. so many friends. so much love. so many deaths. so many people I didn't know loved me. so many I hurt. so many years spent drunk and stoned. incomprehensible grief and loss. confusion. no regrets - I did the best I could with the resources and options available at the time. and no one ever told me my youth would be demolished again and again by the deaths of my mother, baby brother, best friend, and life-partner. so much crying. remember the dancing and laughing. singing. see the crying as a gift from the spirits guiding my crippled heart into an enlightened serene wisdom. no regrets. still cry sometimes.
I was in the same place brother I did everything I could that was destructive to try and hurt others to make them feel the pain I was going through. But yeah no regrets it made me who I am today
She puts so much raw emotion into this version! It is both absolutely beautiful and absolutely heart-wrenching at the same time! A great song and such an amazing voice!
It’s more gut wrenching now for some reason, so raw, I live and breath this every day worrying about my son in a spiral of addiction. Is THIS going to be me one day??😢😢😢😢😢😢
The best thing about Johnette is, she didn’t need The Voice or X Factor and such, the winners of those shows can only dream of having 1/10 of the talent! Rock on Johnette!
This is why I love youtube. The purity of a song in it's simplest form brings a life to a song that studio production covers up and smothers. This is a great live recording! joey jj johnson
Listening to this to this still,love how she really makes you feel for her in this one; always did but I really think I understand more now;Johnette from Miss Oz
what a great song!have to listen to this song w/morning coffee just to get through what lies ahead at work,life etc...her voice just soothes and calms my soul.thanks J.N.
the first time i ever heard this song was right around the time i met a man named joey and it's very crazy how this song i found the same time i met him and he became such an important piece in my life and how much of an impact he was in my life. i was 16 and he was 20 when i met him, when i was 20 i got with his best friend after he left me for good but this song always explained our relationship for the years that we've been together. it's been so long but this song always takes me back to when i was 16 sneaking out to see him by the rail road tracks or when i spent the night with him for the first time when i was 18
La melancólica y apasionada canción en la que Johnette Napolitano,canta abiertamente a un alcohólico para que se dé cuenta del enorme daño que se está provocando y animarlo a recapacitar. El protagonista fue Marc Moreland, guitarrista de la agrupación Wall Of Voodoo, quien era adicto al alcohol al grado que lo llevó a su muerte en el 2002, con tan solo 44 años de edad. Ambos mantuvieron una estrecha relación, que comenzó al momento de conocerse en una gira australiana. La canción es abrumadoramente buena, con un claro y decisivo mensaje que es una sincera imploración al adicto a dejar su vicio. La voz de Napolitano es dulce, pero simultáneamente desgarradora y nos canta la letra con un dolor que deja perfectamente clara la intimidad con la que la interpreta. Debo recalcar esto, su voz eriza la piel, pocas canciones he escuchado en mi vida que transmitan un sentimiento como lo hace Joey. Es hermosa y conmovedora.
Hard to read all the posts... Tears swell and letters become out of focus, damn...😢. WHAT A SONG ! (real Joey was real and he hurt, Johnette brought all that out, BEAUTIFUL 🥰 ! )
Joey keeps getting in between my ears and won't leave(for a while) until I hear it multiple times, could be 5-6... What a song, beautiful pipes and honor from Johnette... (Dang, I'm posting again but it's so necessary 👍)
Such a sad song to cry myself to sleep to Truly amazing, Concrete Blonde is - a life long love affair. Happy Birthday Joey Pollander. March 21, 2017- celebrating his 40th in heaven
3/30/2021-And there are 61 thumbs down! Damn...people can't "feel" or "hear" soulful, or passion anymore? Oh well..your loss! Not only can't you fix stupid, you can't fix "deaf"!
Joey has fought the good fight and paid his dues many times over so its time to forgive him but never forget him he is you and you are me then , now and forever -rsm
seen them live in 1990 in Detroit to a crowd of about 400 she walked thru the crowd and shot the shit with fans I've seen a shitload of concerts and this was up there with bow wow wow ,the cramps, alien sex fiend, Cocteau twins ,butthole surfers, and lords of acid, I have a wide range of music I like bit honestly it mostly different kinds of underground
She wrote this song on the way to the studio. She knew if she took more time with it she couldn't finish it. Sometimes you need to come at things fresh.

I think this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. After hearing it thousands of times, it still brings the tears.
It hits home with me. Alcohol has affected my life in very bad ways and good in a sick way. Some of the times I was drinking and getting high I met wonderful people. I cherish it.
the lyric was written in a cab
This song is my jam... the first time I've listened to it, I cried... it's so beautiful.... anyone still listen to it in 2018??
I listen to it often. It endures like very few songs.
2019
still listening in 2020
still in 2020
Still LOVE this version. Bloodletting is one of the best albums ever. And they are amazing live!!
I’ve always loved this song but damn this version is from another world- blown away!
This was a GREAT band! Johnette has one of the best rock voices ever, brilliant!
This song is still fire in 2022 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 God bless 🙏
Forever in our life's x
As an alcoholic this hits home. I'm still struggling. I don't hurt people I love anymore. I'll die before I do that again.
Hold the line brother!
Remember that you hurt your loved ones when you hurt yourself .
But would you set up a TH-cam channel to warn others ...?
Love is the biggest challenge for the human condition. Facing it sober is the only way.
This was my jam when I was younger, now in my 40’s, this song still sounds amazing to me!
My friends told me to slow down and sober up so I did. They didn't and now they're all gone. I thank God every day for the second chance, my family and new healthy friendships. Much love to you all
I can listen to this over and over. Then its in my head for days.
one of the greatest songs by one of the most underrated groups ever!

my goodness. it's incredible you made it through all that. I hope wherever you are in life, you're life is good. I'm so sorry for all you lost.
+david madsen David, I was going to write almost the same thing about my life then. Thanks.
+david madsen thank you david for sharing that.... I understand. Peace to you, fellow traveler..... this really is a brilliant song.

She sings from her gut and exposes her soul in this version.

Stysz18 some days I'm still mad at my Joey.
Joey has fought the good fight and paid his dues many times over so its time to forgive him but never forget him he is you and you are me then , now and forever -rsm
Voice up there with Grace Slick and Janis Joplin. Powerful
最好的版本
seen them live in 1990 in Detroit to a crowd of about 400 she walked thru the crowd and shot the shit with fans I've seen a shitload of concerts and this was up there with bow wow wow ,the cramps, alien sex fiend, Cocteau twins ,butthole surfers, and lords of acid, I have a wide range of music I like bit honestly it mostly different kinds of underground
Man, I'd love to hear her cover a Grace Slick song.
She wrote this song on the way to the studio. She knew if she took more time with it she couldn't finish it. Sometimes you need to come at things fresh.
Im not angry anymore too.......
Oh my God, I'm in love.
awsome.3................
so good 🥹
super!
My late sisters song ❤ anyone else listening in 2023?
I was a Kid back then, the first time I heard this song and was mesmerized by the power of her voice and beautiful lyrics, but this acoustic version is supreme, where was it recorded? is the band still active?
