My Dad told me stories of when he was in his car in Houston Texas in a hurricane and while the car was shaking this song was playing all while there was fire in the trees from where lightning had struck them and it was pitch black and every now and then the Lightning would light up the sky and you can see everything as if it were day he said it reminded him that even the beautiful in nature can still be found in the darkest of days I hope this short story makes a difference in your day or moves you thank you for reading this.
I wish I knew your dad. Sounds like a cool dude. And I wish I could experience the situation you just described. It sounds amazing. Thanks for letting me experience it through your description!
Thank you for sharing this. Your father sounds like a wise man. You're the lucky recipient of good messages. Thanks for passing this one on. Good Morning!
I know this is an older Dandy's song but I still think it's one of their best! It's neo-psychodelic with a "mantra" like chorus. Many listeners don't realize that this is the Dandy's trademark. All their songs use mantra like choruses which creates a meditative state. I'm probably being too technical in as far as breaking down their songs but this is the essence of their songs. Just don't forget to chant while listening.
whole heartedly agree with you. I saw them in a smaller venue around the "last junkie" era and after the first few songs, I was thinking this might be what Pink Floyd might have sounded like in their early days. The underlying drone to their music is more prevalent in their live music. Its almost hypnotic in places. I just thought that they were the greatest band I had seen in ages.
Jefferson hits the nail, its really like mantras. their hooklines always hits me in a positive way. so much good memories with this band (and the weed.. :-)
I know what you mean - to me, they tap into something that arguably transcends, or at least avoids, easy description or analysis - it’s a melodic, pulsing, melodic wash - when l saw them play live it was deeply immersive, groovy and just plain fantastic.
Didn't know there were more than one or so music videos for the promotion of the album 'Come Down'. Holy Mary mother-of-god...lead singer is GORGEOUS!!!!!
My Daughter had dinner with Courtney Taylor up in Portland several years ago with a good mutual friend of theirs from the band: "Reverends". She said that Courtney was absolutely one of the nicest,courteous and coolest persons she's ever met.He also paid for all the dinners. This song has just about everything possible in it, that can make a person emotionally, & deeply affected by music.
+Ginger Jimbob ..yes I meant the porn star..not the guy in the video. I wrote this a year ago, was still lazy on adding "Taylor-"Taylor usually do 98% but forgot that time.
Karen-Audrey .Todd Since I've never heard of Peter Murphy, your point is made Karen LoL! Thank you for the name though. I will check him out right now. Bowie was really something special, and his son is a talented film maker. His film called "Moon" is really good. Thank you for the reply btw. : )
This song reminds me of when a friend passed away in a car accident in 2003. First time I ever experienced death let alone as a teenager. Got me through the loss.
One of the best songs ever written. I'm down.. I listen to it.. I'm high.. I listen to it.. I'm commuting.. I listen to it.. Always a beautiful few minutes of my life
This song change my life after just learning about this band and subsequently listening everything have done. It also represented a road trip with my 5 year old daughter in Colorado.
To all those people who say that the Dandys sold out... they wouldn't be playing clubs anymore if that was the case. But they are and they are still excellent! Just cuz Courtney didn't wanna sell himself out to heroin (like anton) doesn't mean he didn't sell out to the masses, Keep on doing what you are Dandys!
Mathers respects Anton and Band, same as me.. Courtney Taylor Taylor was just looking out for his Bud, who (seemed) to be outat control at tje time. so give him a break, for Christ's sake!

Pretty boy Courtney...I love this song and video...and I'm so excited that I can see them live in July for the first time! :) (btw the guitar solo is so ace here too)
It's incredibly crazy how much this man, in this video like in some others, was... sensual... ! A real public danger... It was better to see him in picture than to take the risk to meet him... He had there a sensual and almost languorous way to express himself...
José Pedro Ramos Ascensão No... ! Definitively no :-) ! Just... sensual. Umbelievabely sensual. I met and seen 2 men who were like this, and the 1st had this particulary in his motions. "This man there", him, has it in... in his face, in his gaze, in his way to express himself ! Some expressions are... sensual ! That's it ! I needed years to put the finger on "what" he had so special... so unique, to finish to find. Even if I'm absolutely SURE that a lot of men found him attractive in Devil (it's an expression who means : very, very attractive, seen that the Devil is suppose to be irresistible, what he seems to be), he didn't never (in watching him !) give me the impression that he was gay :-), really not ! After, in hearing for the 1st time the 2 first songs of "13 tales...", I told me "it's not possible that the man who composed songs so sensitive, elegante, full of harmony, is straight", but... finally, I don't think that he is. And, something else, the gays are... more "precious", not "sensual" ! In all cases, that's my opinion seen that I didn't never met a gay who was sensual. This Artist (in more to be an excellent Autor Composor is NOT precious. According me, the fact to be sensual is very rare : 2 cases in my life, is few ! Why ? He gave you this impression to be gay :o ? No shit ? Serious ?... Not me xD ! Really not. In fact, he gives me the impression to be straigt "straght out" ! Completely ! Definitively ! There is ANY doubt about it ! He doesn't have in his manners, in his way to move, in his way to express himself nothing gay. Nothing ! Don't fool yourself : I don't have nothing against the gays ! In fact, I like this men very much. They are of good company, know to have fun, and are viril in don't having the... they're not big nags ! They are more delicat, elegant and sensitive. Voilà :-). Good night ! (sorry for the slice but when a subject interests me, I can't stop ;-) !)
Medea the Witch You really feel him like this :-) ?... I don't. He has a way to move extremely... unurving, a gaze !... unurving too ! It's the second man that i "feet" sensual in my whole life. But it's my perception of the "phenomen" :-), i feel him like that. And, in more, why would he be "jealous" :-) ? Nothing in his behaviour in this video doesn't express the jealousy ! Where did you see it ?
Not him, the bloke who said he is " sensually gay". As if a man who expresses sensuality in this way could only be gay! Men can be awfully critical of other men who do not fit into the heterosexual male stereotype. Courtney is a genius...and an awfully sexy genius !
It lacks the musical intricacies, ironic bohemian subcultural references and lyrical self-deprecation of Lloyd Cole and the Commotions. This song is just a rather pretty advert soundtrack.
Never heard any DW songs until maybe three years ago on this site. Love them. This is a beautiful, moving song. A lot of talent here. Their guitar player is...well, almost unknown and here he is delivering a searing fill perfectly into the heart of the song. Great sierra guys!
I don't think anyone gives their guitar player any thought. He's hardcore, perfect timing, literally plays with his entire body! Primo guitarist overlooked 😂
the first warhols song i ever heard was "bohemian like you", now i'm a fan of this band, all songs are pretty nice. i lay on the bad and turn on the music and relax
+Carie “that carie girl” Bosch His voice is shot now from too much chain smoking and hard parties of drunk cheap sex and drugs A shame really...and a complete waste of talent
I'm very fortunate to not only have seen the band dozens of times, but also to hang with Courtney in LA and Portland. They were still friendly with the BJM at the time, so those were crazy times.
I am thrilled to know that you are one of the billions of people on this planet who has an opinion....but what REALLY make you special is that you would come back over and over again to a video that you hate just to let everyone know how important your opinion is. Congrats sir, mission accomplished.
Come Down is by far their best album... and this is probably my favorite track off of it. I didn't know there was a video for it... Its not on the Dig DVD. If you haven't seen Dig check it out.
I agree about Come Down; in particular Boys Better, Every Day/Good morning - first song that l heard was ‘Not if…’ and thought Holy Sh*t that’s good!!! Saw them live and loved them. And it’s not just their brilliant psychedelic musical onslaught - the lyrics are funny, real, poetic and clever - SERIOUSLY streetwise, warm and so cool.
Every song this band makes is a masterpiece. This is the most underrated band of all time.
LITERALLY
I agree
Absolutely but Courtney thinks he’s a god and he very well just might be
100%
They have made quite a few bad songs especially in the later years
I'm a 1957 born stones fan who now is also a dandy Warhol fan. This is going to be good.
Same here. Born 1957. Inveterate Stones fan, who discovered the Dandy Warhols after Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia. Now a big Dandys fan!
My Dad told me stories of when he was in his car in Houston Texas in a hurricane and while the car was shaking this song was playing all while there was fire in the trees from where lightning had struck them and it was pitch black and every now and then the Lightning would light up the sky and you can see everything as if it were day he said it reminded him that even the beautiful in nature can still be found in the darkest of days I hope this short story makes a difference in your day or moves you thank you for reading this.

Dandy's are the best. They are fantastic in concert.They often play small venues and can rock the place out with their sublime melodies.
YES 100%

one of my all time favourite Dandy's songs... i love listening to it when i am getting ready super early in the morning and it is still dark.
I love the solo in this song!!!
This song sounds like a perfect tune to play at the end of a coming of age/conflict resolved movie.
This band is the poster child for the ineptness of the record industry.
MyworstEnemy Quite well put. As good as Peter Murphey and Bowie, and the record industry has never understood either of them as well.
Karen-Audrey .Todd
Since I've never heard of Peter Murphy, your point is made Karen LoL! Thank you for the name though. I will check him out right now.
Bowie was really something special, and his son is a talented film maker. His film called "Moon" is really good.

Are you kidding. This song changed my life!

the most british(like) among american bands. i love em greetings from poland
I agree - I first listened to 13 Tales and honestly thought they were British before looking them up
😂😂😂may b
@danicali yes, they are
I run to this song every morning i always puts a smile on my face relaxes me and makes me sooooo happy LOVE IT
I love the whole song, from the long, distant intro, Courtney's voice, guitar solo, more....
This song change my life after just learning about this band and subsequently listening everything have done. It also represented a road trip with my 5 year old daughter in Colorado.

Lazo koja je ovo vrsta muzike koji zanr ?
yes, but Anton did survive H, God bless his song-writing-soul.. Anyway, each band is Punch in the Fuckin' Face of a lot of Wannabees!
Mathers respects Anton and Band, same as me.. Courtney Taylor Taylor was just looking out for his Bud, who (seemed) to be outat control at tje time. so give him a break, for Christ's sake!
That first tinge of blue on the horizon, that's this song to me.
This is a great song.
Come Down is one of the greatest albums of all time! in my top 10 for deffo! I love this song.
They really did flow well together, timing was superb, smooth sailing
This song awakens an incredibly deep sadness in me. Beautiful 🖤
he was so gorgeous
This is what great music is about, love the song from the beginning till the end!
Always a good morning when I remember to send this to friends.
Been listening to this way before 2007, always a good classic. Has been favorite one for a very lomg time!
Their best by far
In my good good morning
I'm up before the sun can bring,
Early morning, and everyone
Like a shiny thing.
All my angels appear
Before my window saying
"good morning"
In my good morning
In my good, good morning
I feel before my thoughts all spring.
Am I conscious or
Is this my unconscious being
No more like a dream than a
God before my conscious saying
"good morning" in my good morning?

Im sooo in love with Zia's silhouette. Oh...and Courtney is a pretty boy too!
The greatest britpop song by a non britpop group ever.
Pretty boy Courtney...I love this song and video...and I'm so excited that I can see them live in July for the first time! :) (btw the guitar solo is so ace here too)
he is so beautiful. i absolutely adore this entire band. they came to minneapolis last year and i missed my chance to see them. #sopissed
I just love these lisergic guys.
That guitar solo !!!
Dandy Warhols are in a class all by themselves

It's 7 am in Australia,, I needed to see the good morning video to start my day ,I love the dandy warhols, :)
Good Morning from Sydney, Australia.
Still such a beautiful tune...
Modern Psychedelic! One of the few 'recent' bands that I really like.
Love love loved them from the first note...they're an experience, they're a gift! Thank you DW
Still my all time favorite DW song..
Godless
Mohammed
Nietzsche
Bohemian like you
Are we a joke to you?
@@Ze_Ninguem lmao yea i like bohemian like u the most but this is a close second
best song to hear on a saturday morning with a cup of coffee in your hand!
This song reminds me of Lloyd Cole and the Commotions. Great song.
It lacks the musical intricacies, ironic bohemian subcultural references and lyrical self-deprecation of Lloyd Cole and the Commotions. This song is just a rather pretty advert soundtrack.
@dani cali: "They're so cooooool, duuuuuuuuude!!!"

Jesus and Mary meet Dylan and Sgt Pepper arrives man!
Great vibe.
One of the best band ever
Pop perfection

best track on their best album.........Dandy Warhols come down. just jump on that guitar solo & fly.
Brilliant band - brilliant song !!
Brilliant🙂
As a heterosexual man, I can comfortably say....this man needs to be my alarm clock.
Authentic monumental masterpiece...
😂😂😂agree.
Courtney Taylor, what a hunk, What a tune
Doing his best Lloyd Cole impersonation. Love it!
Doesn't he sound just like Lloyd Cole?!!
Courtney and Peter are hot as hell.
Also, this is such a great song. They deserve all the success they've got...
Saw them in 1996 open for Love and Rockets. Girl was topless dancing with both bands for the last song. Went backstage after and drank Guinness.
I love how this looks and sounds like an Andy Warhol film. Reminds me of Explosive Plastic Inevitable.
the first warhols song i ever heard was "bohemian like you", now i'm a fan of this band, all songs are pretty nice.
i lay on the bad and turn on the music and relax
Nice song writing and excellent production. The guitar sound on this track is tubular bliss...... surfable!
What a wonderful song to wake ones kids up to! :)
cannot get this song out of my head.
This is absolutely stellar
I've seen them 2x since my last post. Amazing. I love them so much!!
+Carie “that carie girl” Bosch His voice is shot now from too much chain smoking and hard parties of drunk cheap sex and drugs
A shame really...and a complete waste of talent
Oh but I still love them....and him.

They are awesome. And i love that guy who got his spam comment taken away.... for some reason i just love being called "suga tits"....
yes still one off my all time favorites!
Love this x
I would get up at 6 and walk along the beech listening to this on Holiday in Spain . Brilliant song
he has that "im too sexy for my shirt" kind of voice in the beginning lmao
I'm very fortunate to not only have seen the band dozens of times, but also to hang with Courtney in LA and Portland. They were still friendly with the BJM at the time, so those were crazy times.
Realy love this group!
Wow amazing I've never been into them but that's ethereal
These young men understand what rock and roll means ..

Greatest Song ever!
surely a masterpiece, hauntingly beautiful & it still gives me shivers
I recorded this song as an alarm clock alarm in my smart phone. I wake up every morning with this song as it rings.
this song was in my car every morning for 18months .course i was on heavy pain killers .
Zia McCabe is so gorgeous in her dancing in this video.. its memorizing !
should say 'mesmerizing' *i was too distracted by her cute dancing too notice the spelling mistake :)
She was in my high school history class
you lucky thing :)
so beautiful all of their music is so relaxing. it just calms you down and makes you happy :)
The Dandy's were ahead of their time. I think the would be huge if this was released now. Such a great band

The band that was so mainstream it actually drowned.
