This is possibly my favourite Sandoval song. It's so sad and beautiful and mesmerizing. Sandoval's voice and music is like a warm blanket when I'm feeling lonely and depressed, which is very often these days. If you like melancholic loner songwriter music (like I do) you should check out Mark Kozelek, Tiny Vipers and Ali Murray. They all write such incredibly sorrowful yet beautiful songs.
Still here. When I posted this in 2007 I had no idea we'd eventually get so many new Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions + Mazzy Star albums and EPs. Lucky us!
@@shoegazed the Internet is such an amazing place. Connecting with strangers all over the world through the comments of a music video. I’ve only become a Mazzy Star and later Hope Sandoval Fan after Robacks passing. Well I’m only 3 years older than this video so that’s not much of a surprise still I would love to hear Hope live somehow someday. Have your ever been to a Mazzy Star or Hope Sandoval concert?
@@mitshii04 I made it to one of the 2013 shows Mazzy Star did for Seasons of Your Day, pretty special experience for me but the crowd wasn't sufficiently reverent in my opinion. Thought about traveling to one of the 2016 Until the Hunter gigs, regret not doing it. Missed a local 2009 Through the Devil Softly gig because it was announced late and I couldn't get coverage for the shitty job I had at the time -- should've just no call-no showed! If there is a next time Hope and Colm tour, I'm there!
Looks like an old time opium den in the video. Not that I've ever been to one. But while they tuck you in all high, you can get a shadow puppet or like show
I had a cd burn of this from a bad MP3, so there is a part I expect to always skip, but doesn't XD Detailed musical soundscapes make this effect more apparent.
Suzanne is waiting at your doorway But all she does is waste your time And she looks just like my sister But she feels just like my man And all the times I mean to tell her The cats in here are over-flowin' She pulls aside a four leaf clover And makes me feel right on my own Suzanne, Suzanne Suzanne, Suzanne Suzanne is waiting at your doorway But all she does is waste your time And she looks just like my sister But she feels just like my man Suzanne, Suzanne Suzanne, Suzanne Suzanne, Suzanne Suzanne, Suzanne Suzanne, Suzanne

For a long time I was upset with MTV for stopping playing this music and putting on their low quality programming, but now I understand that it was a good action since this kind of beautiful music will not be denigrated, so after all: Thank you MTV
used to listen to this song al lthe time when i was sad... today im listenng to it and im realyl happy.. and i started to tear up... love thi song so much...
20 years ago I was in drug rehab going through withdrawal and this dude constantly played her music over and over, I fell in love with her voice and music and made me forget the pain, this dude said he was her brother and became my best friend, Robert (bobby) he said they grew up in East LA up in the hills. I love you Esperanza.
me either.. i have been trying to guess who is suzanne.. what is her story.. what makes her so special to caused this amazing song.. dont know why and dont know how i started crying when i listen this song.. Hope is an amazing woman who ever lived in this planet..
@@likeasynx I thought it was just me. She amazes me, sublime. Almost every song, leaves me speechless, but for this cryed too. No idea why. A link to some higher power to paraphrase Quincy Jones. Thanks for sharing!!!
I have a theory....but I could be wrong. Her good friend David Roback once lived with and dated Suzanna Hoffs the lead singer for the bangles. They had also collaborated in a project called rainy day. I dont know exactly how that relationship ended but who knows what David may have said to hope in confidence over the years. She may have written a song about it. Just my .02
when i listen 2 some song's i say to myself how i didn't know this before? ?!!!. specially when i see the comments from 7 &9 years ago where i was completely its beautiful song😍
Legendary folk musician Bert Jansch (from the U.K) sings/plays on this song. I think Hope stated she almost fainted when she learned she'd be playing with him. The film "Inside Llewyn Davis" (2013) brought me here. It's about the folk-revival scene of 1961. Cheers!
this feels so warm and nostalgic

This song feels like it was written about Emily dickinson’s longing for her sister-in-law, Susan Gilbert. Even down to the title of the song.
this song reminds me a lot of my childhood and how easy those times were.
i still love this song with my whole heart
I read through all the comments and I’m now wondering if you’re still active shoegazed

who's listening in 2020 and likes hope?
What do I want for 2020? Hope and Nick Cave to make an album together. It'll be the best record ever.
Mystical, sublime....
If only she would say one word to me, one would do.
and all the times I mean to tell her..
ESPERANÇA
Just love this .thanks Hope, David, Bert (r.i.p.) and all, (Could be) a prayer, a mantra... ..Cheers from Mpls..Jon

Millenials failed
im glad this song got a little more attention lately
So Beautiful
Damn, she really DOES sound quite a bit like Greg Gonzalez. Or rather, Greg sounds a lot like her.
Greg sounds like her, and I love that, haha that guy is amazing, they should collaborate some time
amazing and soultouching
One of those women that one would be perfectly content to just snuggle one's life away with.
What a songbird! I wonder, Is she aware of the affect she has on us men?
What is this song about??
Suzanne
a girl failing to commit suicide
I'm addicted to her voice
wish i knew the story behind this one
me either.. i have been trying to guess who is suzanne.. what is her story.. what makes her so special to caused this amazing song.. dont know why and dont know how i started crying when i listen this song.. Hope is an amazing woman who ever lived in this planet..

I think hopes picture should be right next to beautiful in the dictionary.
