Lyrics:
She sits alone by a lamp post
Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind
She says Dad's the one I love the most
But Stipe's not far behind
She never lets me in
Only tell me where's she's been
When she's had too much to drink
I say that I don't care
I just run my hands through her dark hair
Then I pray to God, you gotta help me fly away and just
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain
Let her go, let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, let her be
This morning I woke up alone
Found a note standin' by the phone
Saying maybe, maybe I'll be back someday
I wanted to look for you
You walked in, I didn't know just what I should do
So I sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself
Saying...
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain
Let her go, let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, oh
Last night I tried to leave
Cried so much, I could not believe
She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
She went in the back to get high
I sat down on my couch and cried
Yelling, "Oh mama, please help me"
Won't you hold my hand and...
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain
Let her go, let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be
Let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain
Let her go, let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, oh, let her be

If I close my eyes listening to this song I can almost taste the Air of a sunny 90's afternoon... Anyone here knows what I mean?
I do, I listened to this, time and hold my hand every single day on mtv
I still have this CD.
It's one of my favorites.
Yeah I can
I can smell it...
Taste it...
Feel it...
Ahh the 90s
Loved the 90's that was my time!!!
yep,just think if u a kid in the 70s n a teen in the 80s ,great songs in the moments always stick with you,just remember no matter bad n good times theres always songs for you to get by n enjoy life one day at a time.
This song is an absolute masterpiece.
Agreed.
That mournful but oh so rich voice...
Fucker let her cry
Brings me to tears. . 😢
A masterpiece for the 90's
I need this song everyday. My wife suffers from bi polar disorder and schizophrenia. She just came back home couple of days ago. Happens every few months or so and all I can do is sit back with our baby and pray for her safe return
I wish you and your family all the healing, my friend. Bless you.
🙏🏼♥️
I suffer from bipolar
So hard that absolutely no one knows what you feel. or how you feel. Just keep on brother. There is a better life that you only have to wait for. Let us not forget that God is our greatest confidant and our way that helps us out of every life situation we find ourselves in. Prayers for you and your family.
Prayers for your wife my friend ❤
Different World back then.
Never realized how good we had it until it was GONE?????
God
I wish we all could go back then when things were more pure like this
Ain’t that the truth.. I feel like I’m in a bad dream I can’t wake up from…
Destroyed by politicians, ideology, big tech and corrupt media.
The information age destroyed it.
Absolutely
I didn’t realize I would have to go through so much more in life before I could appreciate hootie
Man.... what a comment. Felt to the max. I hope we're on the ladder end of it lol
Amen
So true
That gave me chills
You can tell from the songs they wrote, that they must be amazing human beings!
I dont care - this song is 30 years old and to this day is still one of my top 5 go to tunes. Love this song and never gets old.
To me,it's not a sad song,but a beautiful lulibye song...
Lies again? NASCAR F1 WRC Grab Car
I hear you brother!!👊
It’s going to fit in every time of life…there’s always That Guy tries to help her , cute little mess she needs ME because of her trauma, and THEN she does something Effed up, He catches her. Then she cries that he’s all she’s got.. Man he loves her so much it’s killing him. But she does it again and again and again. Except he knows this isn’t his life he imagined. It’s killing the both of them.
He’s gotta be the one who lets go. And that’s heart wrenching. He finally understands. The sun comes up…birds still sing…World Turnin’….. Shake it off if you’re listening to this in that funk. It hurts a little less every day.. AND GHOST HER. For real
I’m a girl, believe me, I have Seen some really humiliating shit women do to their men. And the other guy drops her off a block away from the house.yup, she was with the girls and the “ WINE” made her tired. Then blows you off hen she gets home. And you know she wasn’t where she says.
@@Earthangel63 I’m a 56 year old grown man and your comment explaining this song made me cry. I divorced in ‘98 and remember listening to this song at the time but not realizing what he was actually saying. Your comment explained my situation with my ex perfectly.
Though I know I’m better off without her, the divorce destroyed my faith in women and I’ve never really recovered to the point I can trust again.
“So I sat back down and had a beer, and felt sorry for myself” is a hell of a line. Such a good band.
Agree a 100%
Nobody these days wants to admit their faults or their mistakes; they fail to realize that a man's imperfections are the most human part of his soul.
@@CorundumDevil Very true, but the woman we are caring about needs to accept this. Some think we are weak because we have faults and own up to them.

God dam this song brings me back....miss those days
these guys dont get enough credit. One of the best bands of the 90s. Brings back memories :)
Not the best but close enough 😉
I agree
I agree!!
Darius Rucker is just awesome whatever he is singing..
@@territucker7926 Yeah. Plenty of Hootie music I like well enough. Not one of my favorite bands, but they did good stuff. But Darius' voice just flies. Terrific!
Do you guys know Mr Rucker has put out a bunch of solo albums as a country star? I worked with a guy who never heard of hootie and the blowfish but liked Darius Rucker.
my dad killed himself 5yrs ago this was his favorite band and song and I am a 37 yr old man Everytime I hear it I have to excuse my self to go cry cuz I miss him
rip pops
he is with u every time u hear this song. he is with you every where!
Marissa I hope so I left the drug game and became a man I hoped he would be proud of
I did 4tours in Iraq in the army airborne division
I carry with me always
he killed himself on mother's day so I don't celebrate it anymore
but thanks for kind words
Dan Smith keep your head up man .....don’t really know you but I can only imagine how it feels.......
it's hard but I am running legal companies I haven't been shot in 6yrs since a month after my dad shot himself
I was not a big believer in God and still don't go to church but he saved me you don't life the kinda life I was and not be dead or in prison forever
thanks I try to keep my head up but I can't celebrate mother's day or father's day because of him doing what he did but it makes me want to be the father he wasn't
god bless you all thanks it's hard some days
Sam smith
I dated someone like her too once. Wild, beautiful, reckless, passionate, creative, kind, but also self-destructive. Those are the ones you never forget. An adventure, a roller coaster of passion and emotions. What an experience to learn from as a young man in order to realize what I actually need.
Just went through something similar as a man in my late 20s, and gosh its definitely something. Hopefully in time I can come to grow from it
Went through that with someone when I was in my early 20's. She didn't want to see what was right in front of her and got into shitty relationship after shitty relationship, turned to drugs to cope, and wound up dead a few years later. I'm in my 40's now, and married, and not a single day goes by where I don't think about what might have happened if I tried a little harder, or had the knowledge I have now back then. Some people just don't want to be saved, and that's the sad reality of it all.
@@jasonleightonDTAI 100% agree with you. I randomly found this song and read this message. I believe your comment is the message I needed to see. Thank you. ❤
Never stick your D in BPD ruclips.net/video/UF8KlOOSF0s/видео.html
My husband asked me why I never let anyone love me. His love wasn't enough
He thought I was the only one caught in addiction but we both were. He loved this song and told me it was him singing to me. I got sober in 2001 he didn’t and died from a drug overdose in 2017, my heart has never been the same. But this song will always be my husband singing to me🙏❤️🙏 thank you ❤️❤️
I'm proud of you. 🩶
thank you ❤

God bless you Jeramy Garcia
God bless you too
God bless you too
God bless you as well. Thank you for such a loving comment
Grew up in the 90s and thought Hootie & the Blowfish were good. The more & more I listen to this band today and actually listen to the lyrics of their songs, you realize they were actually miles above anyone they are compared to. Everything about this song in particular is just perfect. Darius' voice is perfect for the lyrics, the acoustic riffs, the speed of the song, everything is damn near perfect.
I totally agree! I’ve always loved his voice!
100% agree! I was so young listening to them in the late 90s-2000s and now i binge listen to them everyday lately. I even bought a sealed cassette of this album recently 😭🍻
Turned 30 in 1990😊✌
@@alika207🤪
Ain't it
There are certain 90’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.
Another song to remember is "How's it gonna be" from Third Eye Blind.
@@EM-fi2qg Classic. 4 non blondes whats up, spindoctors little miss and 2 princes, blues travelers hook and run around
Yes. I feel this statement. 💛
Ahmed brother.
Certainly that 90s sound. Live, pearl jam come to mind.
This is GOAT material right here. Hard to beat this song.
Completely disagree. Listen to more music.
The 90s caliber of songwritting be it ballads, rap, r&b, metal, rock, alternative is just a chasm of separation from todays lyrics. The songwriting is just poetic, real, from the heart, and that is why it transcends time and still applies today - and it will still resonate 20 - 50 years from now.
Very true!
I've been listening to this since it first came out. I'm 60 years old. It doesn't matter, the ballads of this time period are still the best IMO. GETS YOU RIGHT IN YOUR FEELS 💜
@@cynthiadaniels5126 you have great taste in music!
Amen
Music as a whole has lost most of what makes music real. I think technology has made a negative impact on it. Also record labels and greed has fucked it all up.
When I was a kid I didn't care for Hootie that much, but with age comes wisdom. Love this band.
Same 😊
I liked them back in the day, but wasn't crazy about them, too. Now that I'm older... Darius Rucker has a voice that can just cut you to your core.
You can say that again
Actually, you're just nostalgic for the 90s because things got so comparatively bad afterwards.
Yep.
This band saved my fucking life, and that's no God dame joke! This band, this album, this song exploded onto the seen at a time when I was out of fucking steam. I was a confused 14 year old kid stuck in a fucked up family, and no one to turn to. Then, this comes out and I just wanted to fucking cry my eyes out, because I knew that I had something to live for.
Thanks for sharing that
Thank God or whoever for music.
+Elijah Scott thats great that this song helped you.
Shag Me Frida
+Amanda Samos Thumbs Up...GREAT song!
One of the most powerful songs I've heard with one of the best storytellers love this man and this band.
My life long partner of 40 years has battled addiction all our lives. Now, when she has won that battle, she gets hit with Stage 4 cancer. How much can one person withstand? She is the strongest person I know. She keeps fighting everyday. This song brings up so many memories and emotions. I stood by her through addiction and am standing by her now. It has been one hell of a life.
I understand if you are religious or not, but let me pray for you and your family. God's plan, as long as she keeps her feet in the dirt. God Bless, Much love.
Even though I don't know you, I'm with you man. Hoping the best for you guys
Try Jesus, he understands...
I had fought addiction for the last 30 years 14 detox centers 3 over doses. Which one over dose was on the way to Detox. I have been clean going on 30 days now and getting stronger each day. I hope she gets better brother
Way to go, DUDE!!! Both of you hang in there!!! God will take care of your LADY!!! HES an AMAZING God!!! My 🙏🏼 🙏🏼 prayers will be with you and your LADY!!!
For anyone who's ever loved someone they couldn't fix, the third verse hits you in the gut every time.
You can't create love. Only embrace it ☺️
Embrace change that is the lesson I walk away with
You can only fix yourself and that; not always. Got to take people at their worth and let them walk out if they wish.
Even more so when that verse is about you...addiction sucks!
For sure.
How many here could not personally really relate in the 90's but still knew it was a masterpiece.... and now you REALLY get it. This band, this man ❤
❤ I can....
Born in the 60's- 70's , 80's and 90's
Music 🎶🎵 had meaning
Been there done that
Blessed to be alive 😇🙏🕊️🤘😎🥰
Greetings from McAllen Texas 😎🔥!!!!!
Ive loved this band but have never seen them in person hootie tours this year 2024 hope to catch him in Charlotte NC
Could not have said it any better than that. Loved it then and even more so now.
20 years old …. living out my car … drunk … playing this on repeat and singing it at the top of my lungs. I remember her. I want to tell her it gets better.
no dignity in being a simp
Good luck buddy, things do get better.
It does. It might take a bit of time, but it will. Hang in there mate🙂
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dude , this is gonna fade . Everything does. Cry it out, just don’t give up cause you were put here to do great things. Even just making a stranger laugh..it echoes through the web of life.
WE NEED YOU !!!! 😘😘✌️✌️✌️
My mom passed away 5 years ago on mother's day, and this was one of her favorite songs. I stumbled across it today, and I miss her so much!
Hugs 😭
My mom aswell and. Has passed
I feel your pain.. stay strong.. my mom passed 5 yrs ago..it never gets easier but you learn to cope your loss and know that she is smiling down on you.
I REALLY CAN RELATE MY DADS GONE AND ALWAYS REMEMBER THOSE DAYS WITH HIM LISTEN TO THE SAME SONGS
💜 this song always make me cry....! It reminds me of my sisters broken heart and her dealing with her depression. She in a good place now. I'm sorry for your loss, I lost my dad to drug addiction. 💜💜💜
I'm so thankful I beat my opiate addiction and my husband never has to feel this way again. We do recover, and it does get better. Hang in there. 💕
Yes we do. Former alcoholic here.
Yes, amen to that!! And yes we do recover if we start today, tomorrow never comes..
I’m happy to hear this. Congratulations to you and those you love. Stay sober and have a great life!
Victory outreach changed my life it dose get better
@@LynnNelson *recovering*
Lost my love to an overdose. We fought for years over her drug use. The demons finally won. I will never forget her. I will never stop crying.
I am sorry for your loss Mr Schiller. I am glad that at least she had you to the end. Too many people give up on others to quick. I wish you peace sir. I hope you always feel the warmth of her love especially when you need to feel it thru your walk in this life. God Bless
So sorry prayers!! I feel your pain!! Didn’t lose any of my family dued to drugs so close !!! Thanks for sharing your story!!be strong 💪 god bless you!!!
Same here! After 12 years it gets better
Stay strong, brother... I can't say that I know how you feel in this particular situation. Not many can. But I pray for you to find peace and happiness in your life.
You are not alone, it's been 10 years. I couldn't save the woman of my life ,alcohol was drug of choice. I still cry when I hear this song.
I didn’t realize how talented Darius is. He has an amazing voice. Right up there with Steve Perry and Sam Cooke. Love all his misic
This is probably one of the most powerful, emotional songs of the era. The lyrics sometimes brings me to tears. I have always been that guy that would run over 10 good girls to get to that rotten one and I have suffered in the process. Love this song
I feel the same and have done the same. Your comment reminds me of a saying I once heard: "Never ignore a person that loves and cares for you, because one day you may realize that you've lost the moon while chasing the stars".
Amen, brother AJ. Amen.
It’s not just the lyrics in my opinion, but also the way he sings them. So much feeling in his voice!
Properly 70s and 80,s
Yeah. Me too.
This song makes me feel things I can’t describe.
me to but if the sun comes up its all good .
I know the feeling I been there before and be where he is singing about just got out of prison and listen to this song alot
Oh sweet summer child, give it time. Life will force you to feel this pain as we all inevitably do.
I really appreciate all your lovely support and encouragement towards my work. I’m very grateful and thankful to have you as a supportive fan that cares so much❤️😘😍✅💕🙏
💯💯 That says it all for me❣️❣️ He has an amazing voice, feel like he was sending me a message ❣️😢😢😢
My heart is hurting so badly. I lost my only child September 9. In Loving Memory of Kaylah Nicole aka Kenny. She went to be with Angels & Jesus. I’m praying so hard for a better 2021 World Love Vision Healing Pain, Shame & Addiction with Music & Art Love Therapy. Thank You SOOO MUCH Precious Great Spirit of Love for hearts like Christ, so no one feels left behind again and no Amazing Artists Lost too soon.
Open your eyes every morning and think of Kenny. Close your eyes every night and think of her. Love her.
I'm sorry for your loss....you are a kind and loving person, I can tell from your comment....and I'm sure Kenny felt your love also. Blessings 💗

This song hits hard to me ! After I lost my twin son's and my mom and dad all between 2009 and 2011. I cried for 3 years! And I could not control where I was , the tears would just fall. I could be at the bank or grocery store. This is my favorite song that describes me in that time of my life!!! Tears 😢
I can join your club! They come down uncontrollably at any given time after the family losses I have endured! Thank you for sharing Deb!
Damn that's wicked, I'm sorry for your pain. I hope you find your strength and peace
I hope your life gets better.
Saw them in Glasgow over 20 years ago, will never forget it, they wouldn’t stop, we wouldn’t let them, they played over time nearly an hour, my favourite band EVER !!
♥️
That must have been an awesome concert!
You are lucky
I saw them at The Manchester Apollo in 1998, they absolutely blew my hair back...probably the same tour you saw them on...
Hi I recommend checking out an indie song called 'The Bond Villain' By Robert Nix
I took the 90's for granted. We all did.
As did i.sad.
Agreed lol now I'm 44 and wondering were it went too!
@@RealOGMudbone We're not old bro. We're high quality vintage.
@@RealOGMudbone I'm a fan of Classic Rock and some old R&B too. Pink Floyd, Hall & Oates, the Eagles, Seals & Croft, Hendrix, Otis Redding, Al Green, The Supremes. The good tunes. The 90's have a special place in my heart though. Hootie & The Blowfish, Matchbox Twenty, Pearl Jam, Alanis Morissette, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Natalie Imbruglia. The 90's were awesome bro! I definitely took them for granted. '96-'99 were 3 very magical years.
yes i did wish i would of known better
I miss the days when I was young thinking nothing of it when I'd hear this song on the radio. Being older and having experienced more this song hits much differently.
I've said this, and I will continue to say it; the 80's and the 90's were the Golden Age of music. For they truly had passion, meaning, and emotion like no other.
i am with you on that . time is cruel and so is this NOT music crap . i never thought i would say Adam Levine is great . he is the closest to rock we have . watch his " purple rain " tribute with Trains lead singer . Adam can rip a guitar apart . trust me . btw , long live the 80's .
No. Just.... no.

Sorry for your loss kiddo
+Rbrenn Brennn thank you
so sorry for your loss.
God Bless You Carrie. I can't imagine what you have been thru, but one thing I do know is (being that I had been in the program & had 8 years of sobriety & those were the absolute best 8 years of my life), that when you're sober & get to know who you really are & your potential. But, I think the best thing I took from my journey is I now have a spiritual relationship with my God, something I always wanted but could never find. I am sending prayers your way. Just pray & stay sober. God Bless You.
Thank you all for the support and love it really means a lot to me it was the hardest thing I have ever gone threw I don't wish on anyone but for a while I really thought I was dealing with it it was not till I got sober I realized I never felt with it I covered it up

I remember back in the 90s I used to get sick of their songs because I felt like they were "overplayed" compared to other songs I liked better...man I was taking them for granted! Give me these guys a million times over the kind of shit that's on the radio now. Time, why you punish me...
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
+boudicca storm i love your name sake, she was a true ass kicker. i think it was pretty shitty what Paulinus did to her after Prasutagus died, i just wish she had gotten to kill him.
I was lucky to know a good thing when I heard it...bought this CD and played the hell out of it. Now when I hear these songs again I get head to toe goose bumps! I loved the 80's but this song makes me miss a special part of the 90's.
+boudicca storm so true! so many bands like that now that I look back...Creed; Nickelback....

These kids are never gonna know these masterpiece's. I'm 29 next year and the only reason why I know these classics is because I use to hang out in my dad's garage and rock out while we work on cars, bikes or 4 wheelers.
I was living in a family shelter with my mom when this album came out, one of the other moms let us borrow the cassette and I would just sit in our room listening to this on our little boom box.
Proud of you for making your way. Stay strong. You're loved.
Awesome ❤❤❤.

I wish we could take our kids and bring them back with us to these simpler times. Oh how I miss the 90s.
E A I do not miss the 90s. That's when I had to become a responsible adult, raise children, have a career or job. It was a very stressful time. I often took comfort in MY music--the 60s-70s.
@@jschuler53 I was still a kid in the 90s, so these were my similar less stressful times. We played outside until the porch lights came on. We played flashlight tag, we went to blockbuster to rent VHS tapes, and we met up at skating rinks on the weekends.
@@EAHorror Things are usually more nostalgic when you are a kid or don't have a lot of stressful responsibilities.
@@jschuler53 yes they are!
My oldest was born in 1990... I love that my girls were raised with awesome music 🎶 and we can still listen, and go to a better place with the lyrics together!
I took my daughter to see Hootie and the Blowfish using tickets I won in a radio contest, right before they hit it big. They were playing at a National Guard Armory. 😊 Good memory.
anyone who didn't like this song has never been balls deep in love. the one that no matter how many years pass and how bad it got you still think about her /him and wonder.
😭
😭😭😭
Lance Saha it still hurts like HELL.
@@jdavis2456 the one you never really get over and truth be told you're not sure you want to.
For me it's my daughter. I sang this to her since she was born. One of her grandfather's favorite bands... May he rest in peace.
Look guys, this is what we call talent.
This is what I call sight. This is open
You got that right! I love so many of their songs, and I love Darius' new ones too. the songs have soul and meaning to them.
Couldn't of said it any better mate. Pure, natural talent.
I can't believe the number of haters on the internet, since he began doing country. R & B and Country are 'kissing cousins'. He has an incredible voice that is totally suited to either. Let the man do what he wants to do, and enjoy the sounds of either. I, for one, simply love to hear his voice sing.
another old song spree once again
88 million views !!!!!! Darius it's time to get Hootie back blowing the radio up!!!
I'm johny I'm 54 and still listen to this song it brings back old memories 😮
Imagine living in a time Covid didn’t exist and songs like this made you love life. It existed, I was there
wow... I couldn't agree more.
Every racist person needs to watch this video and it will change them
@@fakepeople9385 “racism isn’t dead, but is on life support. Holding onto life by leftist politicians”
@@godisaliveglobalismisdead8819 the extreme left is the problem not left wing per say extreme leftist gets offended by movies stand up comedy and they want to censor everything
I’m not like that but just like there’s conservatives and there’s extreme right wing who are racist & hateful
Carry confederate flags. Extreme views are bad in both sides
You can be a dem or a rep and be a good person but when you become extreme
That’s the problem
That first note of his guitar… tears every time. This song is a one of a kind. Brings on emotions that can not be described. Thank you, Darius.
Who is here December 2020? Still one of my favourite songs ever :)
Still here, takes more than a virus to keep us down!!! God bless America 🇺🇸
Me
Dec 2020 always in my play list! Love ya'll Trump 2020!!!!
✋😁
@@simonrainbow3764 this song is a classic! Period. Why are you throwing Trump into the conversation and dim the thread?
I had the pleasure of seeing them live for the first time yesterday! Amazing musicians, the music and the vibe took me back to some great days!
Hell yeah me too bro I was crying watching them live here
Still crying to this song in 2023 🥰 80/90s era was the best and so very nostalgic if your in your mid 30s,40s❤️❤️
I turn 35 tomorrow
I’m 36, same. Smart phones changed society for the worse
@@JonCooper86 opinions, very. But one thing is agreed. The 80's& 90's were special
Takes me way way back to when life had no worries and everyday was perfect looking back at it all now not giving a shit just riding around all night bull shitting having a blast
Its beautiful
She went to the back to get high, I sat on the couch and cry... Best line ever.
Vicente Coco love it....
Vicente Coco yes. says so much with so little words doesn't it
Vicente Coco yes indeed
HEY SLICK, I WOULD OF F0LLOWED HER, FORGET THE COUCH, AND GOT HIGH TOO. THEN CRIED WITH HER WHEN WE RAN OUT

Music is the closest thing we have to a time machine.
I agree, music takes me back quicker than doc Brown
Word
🎶♥️
Thats a very real assessment i like it👊👊👊
Dag, you’re right
Here 2024 because I hear the pain and sincerity in his voice... Good God man... My feelins
My favorite line "dad's the one I love the most"
Rest easy dad. 1961-2017
I really appreciate all your lovely support and encouragement towards my work. I’m very grateful and thankful to have you as a supportive fan that cares so much❤️😘😍✅💕🙏
My parents took me to see these guys in 2009 I think, and as a teenager I just kept thinking about how lame it was going to be. Looking back, it was probably one of the best experiences of my life with my parents and I’ll never forget how much they enjoyed me being able to experience it with them. Nowadays this music is pure nostalgia and i just imagine how many great moments in people’s lives this band must be responsible for.
62th 👍.
Good story it hit my heart what u said ☺️☺️☺️
That’s an AWSOME story. Music can connect people and bring back memories like nothing else. I’m glad you have that experience and the memory to keep with you the rest of your life.
I heard this song on the radio and I knew who was singing bc my mom n aunt already played Darius Rucker country music around me . This song nowadays is just relatable now that I’ve came back to this side of music
My pops.. with KISS!! First time I found out my dad and I had a common extra curricular interest.. 🌬️🥦
Sometimes you just crave a song and you're not satisfied until you get to hear it.
yea......
96 YES!!!!! and this is the ONE!!!!
96 very very true.

That voice is so beautiful, so deep, so liquid you just want to drown in it.
There’s a handful of songs I can listen to over and over and this is one of them.
mee too
It's a very beautiful song but sometimes it can bring tears to your eyes.
MAANNNN, WHAT I WOULDN'T GIVE TO JUST GO BACK FOR A DAY TO THIS ERA!! WOW HOW I MISS THESE DAYS
I'm 38 and I believe we grew up in the best era for music ever HANDS DOWN...LOVE THIS TUNE
I grew up in the 60's and 70's but love the 80's and 90's. Was like
I should have been born 10 years later. Hell of a lot better than the crap they have on now!
70's. But I do love this song
hmmm we all have come up thinking the same thing so in you're purview you are right
Agreed best era of music
America needs "Hootie & The Blowfish"....BACK! We need you....❤
They are touring this summer with Edwin McCain (I’ll be, I could not ask for more) and Collective Soul!
He needs you to bail him out of jail again.. for drugs.
Yes we need their
Sometimes we are the lesson in someone's life and other times they are the lesson in ours. Blessings 🌻
So true!!!
Yes! I love this comment!
Having grown up in the 70's, I witnessed the caliber of songwriters that came out during that period. Quality songwriting. Heartfelt songs with meaning behind the words they wrote. Words that came from their hearts and souls and that touched those who listened to them. Words that people could relate to. This song takes me back to those days of quality wordsmiths. There is more to music than to simply entertain. It reminds us that as different as we are, we share one very important thing.....emotions. If this song doesn't move you, than you may be listening to the words, but your aren't hearing them.
Word!!!
Olga Levin I must be missing something here. May I ask what point you are trying to convey.
Sorry. Using slang here. When someone says "word!" It means they agree with what you said.
Olga Levin Oh, I had no clue. Thanks for the info. Much appreciated!
MissDistarr60 YOU ARE TOO COLLEGE INDEPTH KEEP IT REAL .....
Damn it Darius, this shit hit a brotha right in his feels.
This song was in my dream last night... Had to listen immediately 🌹
Who is also here in january 2021? One of my all time favorites, sweet music 🎶💖😍 which can never feel or get old only us. When we pass on I hope the younger generation will appreciate it as we do
Yes! I played for my 6 year old in the car the other day. I always try to share good music with her.
January 2021!!
Amen!!!
@@elizabethtemprovich7612 this is a good thing that you are doing I have three girls and they actually like some of these music even though they have never heard them before. God 🙏 bless you and your family
@@yogibehr3003 👍
Love this song enormously. I could listen to Darius Rucker sing the phone book - such a brilliant and rich voice.
You said it! I love everything he sings!
I think you are great, awesome all that jazz
Such an underrated kick ass band! Loved everything about this group that could touch hearts and preform with the very best.
Absolutely the best
I love Hootie and the Blowfish . I think Darius Rucker is pretty darn hot ! Would we say en fuego and his laugh is sexy . It makes me want to bite my finger
ITS ACTUALLY PERFORM. ITS OK GUMP. WE ALL DO IT.
They were the BIGGEST thing in the 90s. How are they underrated? 'Friends' even had an episode with them as a major topic.
When i was little. I remember how all i wanted was my mom when i was sick. Im 42 now. I still get that same feeling but it hurts even more because i know ill never have that. Shes still alive but i had to cut her off a few years ago. When someone leaves you alone in icu you kinda lose any love left. I wish i still didnt have those lingering longings but i know i hurt much less without her around.
This song came on the radio just a few days ago as I was driving in my car. it was raining outside and for real I teared up listening to this. So many memories are tied to music.
Yea and your still here enjoy
I feel you
I used to the rear window disk flying down the freeway just to get away, loved it from the very first .I love Darrius Rucker. I saw them I a club I SO Carolina when no one knew they'd be famous. They came to our table at my sisters request .Very polite and respectful.😊😊
That's what music is about and it shows how truly good Darius Rucker is to be able to bring that feeling out. I pray that you felt better afterwards though.
This song reminds me of my kids father. He battled addiction until he passed from it at 30 years old 6 years ago. We were high school sweethearts and was in active addiction then as well. We broke up and got back together many times and he used to tell me he listened to this song when he wasn’t with me and would sing it many times when we were together. Miss him every day, but when I hear this song it takes me back to him.
He has the most beautiful, soulful voice.! ❤
In 2020 this song still brings tears to my eyes. Just reminiscing and remembering the road I've traveled.
This is one of my go-to songs still in 2020 when I'm in a funk and reminiscing about life. So your not alone ❤️
I been turning to this song alot lately. You're not alone. Stay strong
Love that....
Me too
This song has been a guilty pleasure for nearly 25 years. I don't care how much I get my balls busted, I love Darius Rucker's voice.
Add How Do You Talk To An Angel to the same list.
As someone else said, "He's got a voice like warm butter" Truer words were never spoken!
I totally agree!
Love how this band was just average dressed working class dudes not trying to be trendy and cocky.
Especially with Darius Rucker. I went to school with his cousins. His uncle is a Dr in my town. Just good ppl from SC.
welcome to the 90s
Sev Anderson took the words right outta my mouth, good times man
Didn't sell there soul
Was the 90s
His voice is amazing ❤
This song makes me think of my mom after my dad died. She was a wreck, I was 18, I was a wreck, neither of us were prepared for it, she looked to medications to help her cope with loss and depression, and I didn't know what to do, why she couldn't function, and snap out of it because me and my little brother needed her. Thank God for caring neighbors and friends who saw a problem and helped us all find a better way to cope with loss. My favorite song, but I can hardly listen to it because it is such a painful reminder of that time.
I dont know you but i to fear this very dreadful moment in life so from one stranger to another i love you and i hope everything continues to get better
I'm sorry for your loss. . Hope your doing well and I wish you the best.
I should have noted this in the original post, but this happened 20 years ago, my mother and I still have a tenuous relationship, I've had a hard time forgiving her, but I'm trying. She has been sober for over 6,500 days so she is making progress too. She still has a lot of guilt about that time, we usually just avoid talking about it and make the best of whatever moment we are in.
Ur poor momma, I can't imagine.i hope u are ok . sending love
Brings me similar memories.
This song is still awsome in 2019 and so much relevant meaning to this day
Its what you call a timeless classic. And it will remain relevant as long as humans exist cause weve all been in that relationship at one point in our lives
28 years on and this still hits!
In 28 years for me to and it still hurts
Timeless......hits all human chords...😊
amazing song. took some 'growing up' to appreciate music like this
I miss the 90's!!!
right!!
+James Dyer... true... 😢
Same thing runs through my mind every time I hear a Hootie song. One of the best bands (and singers) ever.
was an excellent decade
America's second golden age
It's been 25 years and this song still evokes painful memories and a truckload of regrets.
Darius, still, and always will have such a great voice and it's recognizable. Hootie rules
I can't listen to this song and drink because I can feel the pain in his voice, and want to cry.
This was the first CD I ever owned. I was 16, and it changed my world. I memorized every word to this album. Every song is deep and every word has meaning. All music can aspire to this.
I totally agree! Are you a singer or musician yourself?
My music journey has been a wild one. Fav’s now are Hendrix, Zep, Ac/Dc and yes…Taylor swift. But what was the first cd I owned that started it all 31 years ago? Of course it was Mariah Carey Unplugged! 🤦♂️
@@bchild79 that was good too
@@alika207 no just have a love for it. I'm very interested in music and art etc
@@brainwithani5693 so am I! Music at least. :-) I was born blind, so I can’t see, visual art but I admire people who express themselves through that medium as well! And I’m a music teacher!
This song touches my soul..so me all my love that you ladys out there in tears baby keep ya head up.
This song touches my soul too.
I couldn't of said it better....

Gimme smokin what you cause that shit sense make dont
Word of advice. . . These hoes aint worth it. Get high for fun fuck them bitches. Let her ass go
I remember hearing this song, in my early 20s, thinking about how much love this guy had for her. Now, in my 50s, I realize I was wrong. This man didn't have enough respect for himself to get out of this destructive relationship, sooner. Maybe its the age that jades us or the ignorance of youth. Either way, its an amazing song.
I'm having one of those nights, I just need to listen to some beautiful heartfelt music.

Me too girl
Im having one of those nights.. im heart broken
SARAH AIKEN:; BELIEVE ME I'M RIGHT WITH U. I'M TRYING TO LISTEN TO MUSIC TO HELP MY PAIN RIGHT NOW BUT DON'T THINK IT'S HELPING ME. HOPE IT IS FOR YOU. BLESS YOU.
Sarah Aiken yesssss
I remember seeing this band at bars in Myrtle Beach and Charleston before they blew up. They are amazing live.
At the Oyster Bar in Myrtle Beach!
I'm
I freaking love his voice... damn therapeutic for the soul... we need more Talent like this great songwriters storytellers now a days it is nothing but crap... I'll just have to keep on listening to the older stuff then... enjoy people!!!!
kid heartz love it
Yes! He is a true talent! Have you ever listened to his country music? not sure what kinds of music you listen to, but if you haven’t heard it and you are open, give it a listen and see what you think! I loved 90s country and older when I was a kid, still do, but I generally don’t listen to as much country from the past 10 to 20 years, with some exceptions, and he is one.
