I don't feel the sun's coming out today
It's staying in... It's gonna find another way(yeah)
As I sit here in this misery I don't
Think I'll ever See the sun from here
And oh as I fade away
They'll all look at me and say, and they'll say,
Hey, look at him I'll never live that way
But that's ok,
They're just afraid to change
And when you feel life ain't worth living
You've got to stand up, and
Take a look around, then you look up way to the sky
And when your deepest thoughts are broken,
Keep on dreamin' boy, 'cause when you stop dreamin' it's time to die
And as we all play parts of tomorrow
Some ways we'll work, and other ways we'll play
But I know we can't all stay here forever
So I will write my words on the face of today....
And they'll paint it
And oh As I fade away
They'll all look at me and say, and they'll say
Hey look at him, and where he is these days
When life is hard you have to change
When life is hard you have to change
It's staying in... It's gonna find another way(yeah)

I hear "With a Gun" from Steely Dan in the guitarplay...

…this list goes on and on. This is what happens when Grunge picked up the heroin lifestyle and glamorized it after everyone else and figured out that it was a dead end with the tragic losses in the 70s.
But Eddie Vedder lives, we should be very grateful for that.

Just love the Alternative movement. The spice that makes music different.

Oh please can I have the sound coming out of both speakers equally?! Makes me want to fall over.
Not bad, and just the fact that it’s not No Rain bumps it up a couple notches.

Damn, I just love this song. Still holds up for me after all these years

I met Glenn Graham, the drummer, a few years after this album - serious musician, nice family, good renter. Hope that he's still productive and doing what he loves.

Yes. Great choice. We we used to listen to this album like crazy in high school back in the 90's. Probably went through about 3 of these tapes. We used to pan the song to one side so it was just vocals. Made my day, thank you.
Well, My pet dream of tomorrow.

I'll never get sick of this song! Or this album. Truly underrated talent, and a sound that keeps me interested. Too bad Shannon Hoon had to be such a wild man.
it may not be everyone's darlin, but I really love this album
Never heard this group--sorry short-lived...riffing some Allman Bros.
"...When your deepest thoughts are broken, keep on dreaming boy, because when you stop dreaming it's time to die..."
All time favorite from this great, short lived band.

Lots of really good things happening in this song but the vocal delivery is right off the charts.

I love this song- the sound, the truth of the thought behind it- it raises the hairs on my arms every time.
One of my most favourite songs of all times!! Never heard this on RP before actually. Weird! I sing and play this one on my guitar regularly. This entire album is amazing and I can never get sick of listening to it. Shannon Hoon you left us too soon!!

Botanically, pumpkins are "classed" as fruits - they have self-contained seeds and are the ripened ovaries of flowering plants, as are tomatoes. Vegetables are generally stems, buds, roots, bulbs, or leaves of edible plants. Sorry for interrupting recess: as you were.

I don't feel the sun's comin' out today
It's staying in, it's gonna find another way.
As I sit here in this misery,
I don't think I'll ever, no lord, see the sun from here.
And oh as I fade away,
They'll all look at me and say, and they'll say,
"Hey look at him, I'll never live that way."
But that's okay, they're just afraid to change.
And when you feel your life ain't worth living
You've got to stand up and take a look around you
Then a look way up to the sky.
And when your deepest thoughts are broken,
Keep on dreaming, boy, 'cause when you stop dreamin' it's time to die.
And as we all play parts of tomorrow,
Some ways we'll work and other ways we'll play.
But I know we can't all stay here forever,
So I want to write my words on the face of today
...And then they'll paint it
And oh as I fade away,
They'll all look at me and say, they'll say,
"Hey look at him and where he is these days."
When life is hard, you have to change.

In the words of a number of artists "Only the good die young" This was obviously before the time of Amy Winehouse.
Play Mouthfull of Cavities!
Very. Good. Music.
RIP Shannon Hoon
is that Little Miss Sunshine on the cover art?
Just brilliant.
Had a chance to see these guys live in a smallish venue just as No Rain was breaking - I think they went on to tour with the Stones later that year? Anyway, they were so good, you could really tell they were playing music light years ahead of some of the so-called jam bands they got compared to during that era. Real talents, such a profound bummer about Shannon.
Nice!
But I know we can't all stay here forever,
So I want to write my words on the face of today

Exactly... I'm sure lots of musicians died at 25, and at 26, and at 28 (like Shannon), and so on... I have a feeling that if you average it all out, 27 has absolutely no significance. In fact, I would further suggest that you would just start to see a bit of a rise around 75 or 80, but that doesn't make news...

Yes, this is a good band. Sadly for some reason, commercial radio tried to sully their good name by force feeding just one song of their repertoire down our throats breeding undeserved resentment and non recognition of their talents.
Movie with a bee was good on a old MTV «120 Minutes», who was remember. Was liked it. Actually because of him this group of memorable for me.

Maybe I'm different, but determining whether a band is "great" isn't done by the number of hit singles they have, but what impact their music had on their fans. I mean, N'Sync had a ton of singles...were they a great band? Some of my favorite bands are local bands that never made it big; I'd consider them great because of the impact their music has had on my life & what it has meant to me. Blind Melon was one of my favorite bands of the 90's, hit singles or no, and this song is probably my favorite of theirs.
As far as categorizing his death as a tragic loss, I don't see this as any more of a reach than saying the same about Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, or JFK, for that matter. Public figures (entertainers or otherwise) have an impact on people's lives, and the sudden loss of these figures also has an impact. To me, Shannon's death was tragic, in that a) he was a young man in his prime with a young family and his daughter will now have to grow up without a father, and b) his music & lyrics are inspirational, and the fact that he died means that the force behind the music died with him.

Great tune and a simply fantastic CD. I think you really have to hear the whole thing in its entirety to appreciate how nuanced this band was
