In 1994 I was 13. This song gave me a walk down memory lane hard. By 2004 I was 23 in Iraq. Now in 2024 I’m a 43 year old- old man. That 30 years went fast.
I finished high school in 1995, and the nostalgia this song brings is amazing. The mid 90s were truly the last awesome years of being young. There was something about going out with friends and being completely untethered from anything else. You could truly just be in those moments. No emails, no cell phones, no social media. I count myself blessed to have been a teenager in those years. Great song. 👍🏼
I completely agree with this! I was born in 79… times have changed so much and I fear for my children that are 4 and 2. Hopefully time does repeat itself for their sake
Right on! I just discovered him . I’ve been waiting for someone like him ! What a writer and have you seen the video him walking down the road singing …Omg.. Hooked.
1994!! The year I graduated high school and left to serve my country in the NAVY. It is probably the best life decision I made as an 18 year old that could have traveled down the wrong road, especially without that decision. I think many were/still are shocked at where l've been, what l've experienced, and who l've become. To those that said I'd be nothing but trouble, Thank you. To those that cheered me on, THANK YOU! I truly don't think my parents knew how l'd turnout. They left it totally up to me. As a 48 year old man, I can say l've been blessed after all the life experiences I've had, especially being a father.❤
Thank sir for your service they wouldn't take me in 87 I was broken to pieces in car wrecks but I tried anyway thank you I was the same fckup but I tried would not let me in but thank you sir maybe in some way you did it for me that is why I ran across this God bless you
This was beautifully said man. Congratulations. As a 44 year old five years clean and now working to become a pastor and continue to work with homelessness and addiction. Our past makes us our present. Thank Jesus for it all. Good luck with life man. No children for me but my wife’s oldest is now gonna have a daughter. So…. The closest thing to parent hood I’ll have is that baby girl. I can’t wait. Due in February.
Born in 83 and just recently turned 40 and I’ve never related to a song so much! I’m literally writing this with tears in my eyes! This is a beautiful song!
Takes me back to the days when a song was worth so much more…. Holy shit. You just made a grown man tear up. And I ain’t did that since my grandfather died. Absolutely beautiful man. Wow.
damn just wandered onto this guy's doorstep yesterday...faith in humanity restored! in the midst of all the vapid booty girls writing on stage to computer-generated "music"...people are falling for this nerdilly-dressed voice crying in the wilderness...anybody else hear just a hint of goodbye blue sky?
I’m 52 and I was graduated in 1990 . I remember when songs meant so much more . When we use to wait for album releases and we knew 0 about how it was gonna sound because there was no social media . I remember a large group of friend gathering in a parking lot and listening to an album and just hanging out and having a blast . The 90s were different and the very last of the good times when you didn’t have to worry about you whole life being documented for the world to see . This guy gets it and he captured my whole generation in one song . This song means so much more to us than you will ever know thanks you for you contribution to my playlist .
I miss the parking lot “gatherings”. Every group had their spot to hang out. So you’d just drive up and down the Avenue visiting your friends. We had a pay phone in one lot that you could call and someone would eventually pick up and tell you what was happening. No cameras or GPS … It was a wonderful time.
I was 13. And my headphones and Walkman/stereo were my life also! Nirvana was also life. Man this song takes me way back when life was simple. Miss those days.
I have been listening to this non stop for awhile. My son sings it around the house. Maybe some day he will remember the current year through a song where his son sings about 2024 around the house. This one gives me chicken skin. Boys 2 men. No Fear. It feels like the dude is singing about my life back then. That is what makes music great. It connects you to a person, place, or time.
Born in 83 here as well. But I'm from Finland. Stone cold Scandinavia. We lived on Grunge and we grew up on everything this song refers to. I hate nostalgia but this brought tears to my eyes. I'll do my best to make sure all the Finns hear this. It's a masterpiece!
It's impossible to explain to any other generation the experiences that shaped us, even the ones that bookend us on either side. Yet, I can talk to a gen X stranger, who's life experiences and trajectory were completely different, and we can still share common experiences like old friends. It's crazy.
@grimeybeast1465 we all talk about our own generations time as kids as if it was the definitive time to be young. I'm 31 in a couple weeks. I was born in 1993, so barely experienced the 90s. I still look back at the late 90s and 2000s the same way I hear 90s kids talk. I think the reality is we all just miss being the young, carefree kids we once were. Before joints on a Saturday night became sore joints, and a 5 dollar bill became a 300 dollar utility bill.
@@wilmafistfit9355 times were simpler, life was better and people got along. It's changed a lot since then....appliances have got worse, vehicle's today are a computerized nightmare, we carry a bug in our pocket that monitors EVERYTHING etc
What a great song! Graduated 94 , we truly lived in a time when music meant so much to us. It's part of our soul. You captured the passion and inspired the flame again in me. Tears and Smiles my friend . Thank you. I feel you.
*this song taps into some of my favorite childhood memories, *it also takes me back right to when my brother passed unexpectedly/suddenly in 2016, and all the love and support from family/mutual friends/strangers, despite it being one of the most terrible/chaotic times in my life *it takes me back to the time spent at various behavioral/mental health hopsitals, lack of sleep, and all the horrific and/or encouraging stories from group therapy, and advice of friends and strangers alike *this song gives me hope *this song make me cry *this song reminds me to smile *this song reminds me more memories can be made I'll probably never meet Stephen Wilson Jr., but I'll be forever grateful for and feel forever-young because of this performance... Time to daydream some more...
I mean this as the best compliment. If Chris Cornell would have sang country, this is similar to what I think it would have sounded like. I love your guitar playing and song writing. Truly unique and incredible. You have gained a huge fan my friend. Please continue to write, play and sing more! This whole album is absolutely worth a listen over and over again. Killer dude! Keep it up.
Coming of age in the 90s was something you didn't realize was so special until much later. There will never be anything like it again. Thank you for taking us back there, Stephen.
From Belfast, Northern Ireland- I was born in 1965, but this song still resonates with me. Incredible vocal, too. You have left me hungry for more. Thank you!!!
I was a junior in high school in 1994. This song hit so hard it physically knocked the tears out of me. A grown man crying, flooded with memories of being young in one of the best times to be alive. Who knew. I miss that time so bad. What I would give to go back when life was about great music, first loves, and having fun. Maybe not always the easiest times for me but some of the best memories.
1994 I was 16 years old soft more high school, drove a 76 datsun, varsity cross country, ice hockey, street hockey every day, drinking & smoking weed at night, lsd , mushrooms, pharmaceutical mdma on weekends, as a virgin. Working at Little Cesars that was in a Kmart & smoking herb with friends in the freezer & taking the cashier balance of the til home. Life was good but it was in my own Heart Shaped Box🔥👽🔥
What a song. The way it pays tribute to the Nirvana sound without feeling like a ripoff is both perplexing and captivating. The more I listen, the deeper it gets. Hell of a song.
It went by in a flash. How is it so easy for time to pass? My soul craves those simpler days. My body aches for its pains to go away. Endless hopes turn into disappointing realities. The clock ticks away faster and faster.
When a song reminds you of what you had, what you lost, what thought would be and what actually is, all at once. How can a song fill me with such joy and sadness at the same time? I will have to listen 30 more times to figure it out.
Words can’t explain how life changing this album has been for me. I had the pleasure of meeting Stephen at Faster Horses in Michigan recently (2024) and I stuttered my way through trying to explain that to him. He was humble and kind and shy. He has easily become my favorite artist of all time. Can’t wait to see what else he has in store. I’ll be listening to this album on repeat for a long, long time.
Born in 94, I always say how grateful I am to have been given the opportunity to experience the world before it all REALLY went to shit. Love this Steve. Keep going, it's your time.
1994… I was born that year. Didn’t experience much, that I remember. But this guys music has me feeling some type of way today. It’s thanksgiving. And I have very little to be thankful for today… I’m thankful for music.
Ok. The song hits hard. Grad '97. Lived my life on my bedroom floor with big cabinet speakers on either side of my head, liner notes in my hand... That's cool and all but can we talk about that guitar tone? DANG.
I’m not the type of person who posts comments I my mind own. The beginning acoustics had my ears perked up and by the end of it all I was an emotional mess. Love the Nirvana riffs in the intro and outro. This song gets you in the feels for sure.I need this version on Spotify please make it happen 😂
this song touches home. i was in high school in 94 and i close my eyes listening to this song...the memorys will never be forgotten. great song brother forever stuck in my head
I just found this guy from his "live at the print shop" video that came out recently. That cover of "stand by me" and then his unreleased song "im a song" had me hooked instantly. This guy is a great songwriter and that set showed that he has a ton of vocal talent as well
There are no words. The nostalgia is too much. But the line he said “when a song was so much more” nobody born in these last two nor the next generations will truly understand that statement
I'm from Garrett Indiana...been playing the guitar since I was 11...I would stand on a foot stool in my grandparents living room and sing King of the Road by Roger Miller... I'm now 63 years old and still playing and singing...so great to discover a fresh voice in a world of stale and uninspiring music... Stephen is a a breath of fresh air....🎸🎸🎸
I, too, graduated in '95. I feel blessed to have lived teenage years in what i consider the last great decade to have done so. Such wonderful memories. I'd go back in a heartbeat❤
🤚Who else is here because you heard him on Stephen Colbert. I would have never heard this song if it wasn't for that show. I've been going through his songs and find them so relatable. I'm a black lady from Detroit and hip-hop is usually my wheelhouse but this dude is country and he's speaking to me more than any rap songs I've heard in a decade. Yeah I'm buying all these songs.
My family moved alot when I was younger, in 94’ I was 15. My way to escape was to load the walkman and just fade away listening to anything from Pearl Jam to the Doors to just forget about things. The fact that I was awkward, couldn’t make friends because we would be gone in 8-12 months, music healed. Still does. This song gives me chills. Thanks 🤘🏻🤙🏻
When i listen to Stephen's music, it evokes so many emotions with complete nostalgia. It is like time stands still, and a movie of my life starts playing with his songs, becoming the soundtrack of my life. Every one of his songs is a masterpiece. I am grateful for his music.
God, thank you for deliverance from evil and from wickedness. God, thank you for forgiveness of sending anyone away that we shouldn’t have. Thank you for being faithful and true to us and for always coming back to us in love. Thank you for our bibles In Jesus mighty name. Amen 🙏 🤍
Sliding the little All Apologies riff from Unplugged really added what this song was missing. That is if you can possibly argue it was missing anything. Pure magic man
This is a song you dont listen to.
This is a song you feel.
When you feel something with your ears it’s called hearing
Not when you have synesthesia.

You are like Springsteen if he was still young, hungry, and capable of writing good songs. You are really fucking good at what you do.
Then why do I hate Springsteen and love this guy
@@NoBody-hz4poyou can hate Springsteen, but that has nothing to do with them sounding similar. Which is true, they do.
Lol OK dude

Hooked.
I also hear Chris Cornell
Dude, I'm crying. On behalf of all Gen X, thank you ❤

83 as well. This song just hits home!
1982. Sitting here making ugly faces trying not to cry.
I dont know about you guys but that tone he is getting outta that acoustic, is blended perfectly with his voice. Freaking awesome JR.
Takes me back to the days when a song was worth so much more…. Holy shit. You just made a grown man tear up. And I ain’t did that since my grandfather died. Absolutely beautiful man. Wow.

Stephen is a great songwriter and guitarist. He makes you feel the music instead of just listening to it.
Born in 1976. This song speaks to my entire teenage years. What a great time to be alive
This may be one of my favorite songs ever written.

This song means so much me. I graduated in 93… the mystical sounds of this song resonate through my core!
Takes me back to the days when the songs were worth so much more. 1994!! True words right there!!
Best shit I’ve heard in more than a decade
It went by in a flash. How is it so easy for time to pass?
My soul craves those simpler days. My body aches for its pains to go away.
Endless hopes turn into disappointing realities. The clock ticks away faster and faster.
I was 10th Grade in 94....this sound means so much to me.
1994! What wild times. Fearlesly recklessness.
Thank you for the music .
NAILED IT! I felt it like 1994! Thank you for the feels man!
Yes and fn yes
I had,long hair and was a God in 1994 ❤
Good shit bro
When a song reminds you of what you had, what you lost, what thought would be and what actually is, all at once. How can a song fill me with such joy and sadness at the same time? I will have to listen 30 more times to figure it out.
This such an underrated comment!
❤❤❤
How can we petition for Stephen to cover “Where Did You Sleep Last Night”?
this guy just wrote and sung my entire heart. holy shit.
This is that song. We may never know where its power came from, but Stephen did something eternal with this one. Great Job, son.
The last years of gen X what a great time to live.
What an anthem for all of us 40-somethings!! The last generation of proud latchkey kids!

It’s honestly mind blowing how good this guy is. Literally speechless
Thank you for sharing a part of your soul. I lived this song. Gen X all can relate, oh the memories!
1994 was such a tumultuous year for me.... that's more prophetic than anyone reading this will understand...

I just found this guy from his "live at the print shop" video that came out recently. That cover of "stand by me" and then his unreleased song "im a song" had me hooked instantly. This guy is a great songwriter and that set showed that he has a ton of vocal talent as well
There are no words. The nostalgia is too much. But the line he said “when a song was so much more” nobody born in these last two nor the next generations will truly understand that statement
1994 first born daughter was 2......54 year OG now and man that tune puts a fire in my belly! Good stuff!
LYRICS AND STYLE FROM ANOTHER PLANET !!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
An absolutely amazing song. Captured a lot of emotions from my childhood. Thank you
Born 78, lived my best years of being a kid and a teenager.
Witnessed some great shit.
I miss those days, man 😔
This song hits. You can feel him putting his soul into it!!Hoping the best for this guy!!
I'm from Garrett Indiana...been playing the guitar since I was 11...I would stand on a foot stool in my grandparents living room and sing King of the Road by Roger Miller... I'm now 63 years old and still playing and singing...so great to discover a fresh voice in a world of stale and uninspiring music... Stephen is a a breath of fresh air....🎸🎸🎸
Congratulations, Absolutely incredible track, resonates with my soul.👍
Also you were amazing at the royal albert hall last night.
I, too, graduated in '95. I feel blessed to have lived teenage years in what i consider the last great decade to have done so. Such wonderful memories. I'd go back in a heartbeat❤
🤚Who else is here because you heard him on Stephen Colbert. I would have never heard this song if it wasn't for that show. I've been going through his songs and find them so relatable. I'm a black lady from Detroit and hip-hop is usually my wheelhouse but this dude is country and he's speaking to me more than any rap songs I've heard in a decade. Yeah I'm buying all these songs.
Love this
Every song this man sings is straight up gold.
My family moved alot when I was younger, in 94’ I was 15. My way to escape was to load the walkman and just fade away listening to anything from Pearl Jam to the Doors to just forget about things. The fact that I was awkward, couldn’t make friends because we would be gone in 8-12 months, music healed. Still does. This song gives me chills. Thanks 🤘🏻🤙🏻
When i listen to Stephen's music, it evokes so many emotions with complete nostalgia. It is like time stands still, and a movie of my life starts playing with his songs, becoming the soundtrack of my life. Every one of his songs is a masterpiece. I am grateful for his music.
❤ This has been on repeat all day. Absolutely hits ya in the feels
Big time
I can't remember 1994... thank you! 1994 was not a good in my life, but I had music.
The 90s was my prime time , middle school, high school and everything you sing about .....I love this song
God, thank you for deliverance from evil and from wickedness. God, thank you for forgiveness of sending anyone away that we shouldn’t have. Thank you for being faithful and true to us and for always coming back to us in love. Thank you for our bibles In Jesus mighty name. Amen 🙏 🤍
Sliding the little All Apologies riff from Unplugged really added what this song was missing. That is if you can possibly argue it was missing anything. Pure magic man
wish he had kept that in the spotify version man!
