What a beautiful song! Shannon's voice is perfection. Blind Melon is the best band of the 90's. Best band period! watching this video makes me cry. Miss them all so much. RIP Shannon 😘
Is this song beyond BEAUTIFUL!!! Great lyrics Awesome Guitar and Shannon's AMAZING VOICE!!! This touches my heart and soul thinking about Shannon Hoon and loosing my mother 17 yrs ago!!! Thank you BLIND MELON for your BEAUTIFUL GIFT OF MUSIC!!!
Michael Pal Michael I have seen you post dozens of comments on Blind Melon Sites but this is the first time I ever heard you mention your own mother dying. I am so sorry for your loss✌️🌹
Oh absolutely! No one, I mean NO ONE sings like Shannon Hoon. I've actually got a live version of this song but this version is really great too! Blind Melon was the best band!
I am reading the book "Devil in one shoulder an Angel on the other." I was reading this song was one of their favorites off of the "unreleased demo" Glad this was posted! I wanted to hear it!
Same thing happened to me in a way....I got to college and a friend had one of their albums - It was love at first listen. Playing "No Rain" all the time will never ever do this band justice. I think I cried the first time I heard "change" (yea, I know, i'm a softy, lol)
Love this track so much. Wish there was a cleaner version out there. The one on "A Rare Collection" is about the same. Can't for the life of me figure out how this never made it to an album. This was deemed not worthy??? I love Blind Melon as much as anybody but this song is perfection.
mulberry is the place where this legend has rested his bones, 5 miles outside where it all started, lafayette my home town he is truly missed all the good ones are gone?
I miss all of u man , the fights , awful smells, the laughs the open road and now your all gone I miss my mother. Lord who ever made this video i must tell you I love it because its raw and means more. Thank You. God man I miss so many of you and Ill die with half of what other’s don’t need to know he was a cool guy. I just got a call from the Dr and lord ...... Thats all I’m saying but yeah this tune held holds special meaning to his family, a song of hope and some relief was felt when he play it.Oct 21- 29- and 30th suck dude yeah poor mother she’s with all of you now tell her i love her and Ill see you all soon enough man. Again thank you for making this video
absolutely love this song.. so sorry shannon's not here.. as a mother my heart is truly proud and broken.... my mom is not here anymore. this song touches my spirit on many levels what is the vid of the guys in the mud??
beautiful song from blind melon. this band sounded like a joke in the early 90's but that was just the band's name. they did some deep melancholic shit. but this song......this song gets inside my bones it does....
I think "melon" in their name was maybe referring to the human mind or head, so think about it that way and it's not so silly. Don't know for sure, but that's what I always thought. Could just be something silly they came up with
The skies have darkened and the seas have dried Your honest ways have turned to lies Your hands of promise turned to hands of pain You take for granted the life our God created The life our God created - oh oh oh The frost and flowers Mother gave to you The muffled whispers ringing true - oh oh And it doesn't matter how - What kind of eyes you're looking through To see our Mother's dying I wanna paint this picture for you I wanna paint this picture for you oh oh oh - oh oh oh With every black choke of a breath and every inch closer to death Her hands are held out for you You said the reasons are in the cities that we've all made and the wars that we've raged on poor Mother Poor Mother Poor Mother Now that she's leaving and she's thrown off all that she gave we dig the grave of our poor poor Mother The grass ain't growing in my front yard - no Poor Mother Poor Mother Mother - oh Mother - oh Mother
I was reading below, how is this song on an unreleased demo I've been asking everywhere..What album is this song on bc I want it and can't find it.. Thanks for posting. .
I was talking about where to buy it from but I have it now ! But thanks anyway! I actually can't pick a best song from Melon bc between all of the albums and acoustics! I can't decide! They're all top notch !
Live shots are from the show at the roxy nyc he stepped on to my brother and I for the song time and was so fucking epic and MTV keeps the footage locked in a vault not right free the music
Such a beutiful song...with only 30 thousand view..but i am ok with that ..i don't give a fuck...i lost my great mom last september and this song just....fuck

Mother Earth Shannon & Blind Melon So underrated & misunderstood. They should have been known 4 more than No Rain

i have listened to this time 50 times by now i love this song
So much emotion and soul and spirit. Hoon is a legend

God I love this song. I miss Shannon.
i wonder if he still has that fork shannon gave himm
It does me good to know so many of you feel the way I do...
The skies have darkened and the seas have dried
Your honest ways have turned to lies
Your hands of promise turned to hands of pain
You take for granted the life our God created
The life our God created - oh oh oh
The frost and flowers Mother gave to you
The muffled whispers ringing true - oh oh
And it doesn't matter how -
What kind of eyes you're looking through
To see our Mother's dying
I wanna paint this picture for you
I wanna paint this picture for you
oh oh oh - oh oh oh
With every black choke of a breath
and every inch closer to death
Her hands are held out for you
You said the reasons are in the cities that we've all made
and the wars that we've raged on poor Mother
Poor Mother
Poor Mother
Now that she's leaving and she's thrown off all that she gave
we dig the grave of our poor poor Mother
The grass ain't growing in my front yard - no
Poor Mother
Poor Mother
Mother - oh
Mother - oh
Mother
Cool video!
I never heard this recording before!
Where can I find it?
