I still remember getting the phone call from a friend on the news of his death. Jaw simply dropped and we sat on the phone in silence a good while. There just weren't any words applicable. He was a sort of dark anti-hero for us goth kids in the 90's. From the accounts, pictures and even letters from various friends, he was a kind and well spoken soul, connected to the heart. For many of us, it was his voice that allowed us to endure being the troubled and "odd" teens at the time. Can't count how many times we'd copy copies of copied tapes over and over again to share with others in that underground scene. Back then you had to know someone, stumble into or seek blindly in the dark and unknown for this kind of music. We were very lucky to have discovered so much lovely music in the scene back then. Just the simple wonder and amazement of aquiring a new LP or demo tape from a show was the best high ever.
For me its one of the most beautiful love ❤song i ve never heard since a long time yes it ils thank you Rozz and you make Gitane have water of moon in her eyes 😊 6:16
This song is about his heroin addiction, isn't it? I've read many, many times that Rozz was a heroin user, but I've rarely seen or heard him speak much about heroin or anything, except in this song (i.e. - the poppies part).
@@SamuraiGoth That's true. He actually does speak a lot about his heroin use in his music, although some what cryptically at times. I'm curious at what age he started using it & where the hell he was getting it from for so long. Cause some people think "When I was bed" was actually about being sick in heroin withdrawal. But "When I was bed" was actually written before it was even on Ashes. Which means Rozz would've been doing heroin at like 15, 16, 17, 18 years old already...
@@ElektrOpium Shit... Hadn't thought of that. That's sad 😢. He touches on a lot of things actually, though cryptically as you said. Part of what made his lyrics so interesting.
Wow. I only saw Rozz once. I wanted to talk to him after the gig but my friend was being a pill and insisted we go home. I do regret not talking to him. What a brilliant mind he had.

I heard this song ONCE by accident many many years ago...and I never forgot it...ROZZ is interned at the HOLLYWOOD FOREVER CEMETERY.
Imagine talking over this genius.
Such a strong man, such a weak world
Crowd was drunk, they were proving what Rozz was feeling. Alone. Talking to nothing. Amazing song.
I knew him. He was very kind.
Audience shut UP! 😢😢😢😢
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I think is not a love song, it's a song about him. But is ok another interpretations.
This is my favourite sad story. That tour was so good. Rozz, i miss you always.
Es una lastima el ruido del público

Legend...
This song gives me goosebumps and tears every time I hear, and certainly when you know why Rozz wrote this song... 😞 RIP ROZZ

@@ElektrOpium His spoken word albums touch on it a lot.

The song can be whatever you want it to be about.
If Bowie got darker, and went underground, he'd be like Rozz.
Totally agree with you
Rozz was such an incredible singer. His persona often overshadowed his musical talent…he deserved much more recognition for his beautiful voice.
beautiful
Joya, amado Rozz

Bochum (Germ.) 1995, was there ! I'm the one the song is deciated to. Those were the days...

Audience chatter, so disrespectful. I hope those people knew how lucky they were. RIP ROZZ
I agree. I wish I had a time machine so I could go back and see some of his best shows live. There will never be another like him.
@いいえ。 perverts? Please explain. How do YOU define a pervert?
FOR REAL
It’s a show. What do you expect?
Simple mente hermoso.
