@@tommorellosothermercedes seems you dont know, but Shannon Hoon, the singer of Blind Melon, died in 1995...and the world lost the most angelic voice it ever had. Im sad for you if you got into his music and didnt know, man.
Man I just want to say that this is one of the greatest bands that I've ever heard in my life. been listening to these guys since the beginning. I just wish this band was more appreciated these days man. RIP Shannon. U will live forever man
I was one of those that dismissed Blind Melon when they were around. Looking back I blame it on poor choice of singles. No Rain is good, but IMO it is my least favorite song on their debut. I only listened to anything other than No Rain and Galaxie a few months ago. Sure wish I had listened to their debut back in the day. Shannon is so underrated, as is the rest of the band...
Lyrics "The skies have darkened and the seas have dried. Your honest ways have turned to lies. Your hands of promise turned to hands of pain. You take for granted the life that God create The life that God created. The frost and flowers Mother gave to you, the muffled whispers bleeding true. And it doesn't matter how what kind of eyes your looking through. Do you see our Mother's dying? Here's a picture for you. I wanna paint this picture for you! With every black choking for breath and every inch closer to death. Her hands are held out for you. You said the reasons we're in the cities that we all made was that we rage our poor Mother. Poor Mother. Poor Mother. Now that she's leaving and she's thrown off all that she gave, we dig the grave of our poor Mother! The grass ain't growing in my front yard, no. Poor Mother. Poor Mother. Poor Mother.
This is my favorite song by them ...my God he had an awesome voice !!! I hate that drugs took him from this earth ...what could've been ...how much more great music would we have had? The stuff today sucks . The emotion and heart is gone ...Shannon had that for sure ...Rest Peacefully♥
4:48 to 5:06 Iv listened to every Melon song 100plus times and you never hear Shannon's voice hold so much passion for any other song then in this 8 seconds of "Mother" still gives me shivers down my spine and goosebumps on my arms RIP Shannon "But I know we all can't stay here forever, so I want to write my words on the face of today. and then they'll paint it"
@@lauramarie9131 Have you heard or maybe gone to one of the vigils family , friends and fans still hold for him I believe its the last weekend of September (weekend closest to his birthdate Sept 26) at a park in Dayton, Indiana...I myself have never been but I defiantly want to one day!!!
ive seen hundreds of live concerts in my 50 yrs on this messed up planet.AND i seen Blind Melon live at LU LUs in Kitchener Ontario deffinately in my top 10 0f all time. Love this band. LOUD LOVE FOREVER
Such a loss for our world, RIP Shannon. Such great talent, gone way to soon. I like to think everytime someone listens to this great song, Shannon knows it. Thank you my beautiful friend.
One of the most beautiful voices of all-time...This is one of my TOP 3 favorite Blind Melon songs. R.I.P Shannon Hoon (Beautiful name. Beautiful voice.)
I wrote a paper on Shannon hoon back in 2009. I was a sophomore in high school. Obsessed with hoon, nowell & Garcia. To this day , I still get lost in this gem.
friggin friggin awesome, this song is exactly why there are so many of us Blind Melon fans .... till this day.... rest in peace Shannon Hoon, you are so very much missed and will never be forgotten xoox
ANOTHER Beautiful Song Shannon Hoon a Beautiful Man with a BEAUTIFUL SOUL and Spirit!!! Loved his beautiful SMILE and his voice was Amazing!!! So much Passion and Strength!!! Breaks my Heart that he had to leave us so soon!!! Shannon you are always in our HEARTS!!! Sing with the ANGELS my Love💜💜💜💜💜
And now he'd be 51. Same age as Layne. What happened to musicians born in 1967? Like the year was cursed! Kurt and Scott were born in 67 also. RIP to a lot of talent gone to soon..
My great-grandma died today (Maxine Cooper Rivers), she WAS MY Mother and Father........my Parents left this earthly plane of existance when I was a child.....Music is Love, you Were Our Song...Love Always and Forever, Angel Turner Wyatt
Blind melon on a venue with pearl jam niel young and head liner Mettalica strange concert. There we're a shit load of other bands all day in Portland,oregon. Hot and very humid, fans dropping from the rock-n-roll. R.I.P Hoon thanks for the bad ass performance!!
been listening to blind melon since September, inspired to play guitar by them, just fell in love another blind melon song. The chords and his voice are quite literally the essence of beautiful music. i don't know how to legitimately describe this but...I love the archaic recording that this song possesses. It captures a feeling of nostalgia and melancholia.
PURE TALENT!! SPEAKS THROUGH HIS MUSIC .. IDK? I FEEL & SEE ALOT RONNIE VAN ZANTAC IN HIM.. THE PASSION, THE LOVE, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY A REAL DOWN TO EARTH TYPE OF GUY.. RIP BROTHER...
@thunderkisstsky (continued from below:) hats off to Mothers everywhere; still here or already there. Blessed reunion. Thank GOD (DOG) for bringing us all together, courtesy of one of the sweetest Souls ever to roam this earth, Shannon Hoon. I long to meet you, to shake your hand, to hug you and to call you Brother.
This version of the song is very hard to find, but it's the only one I knew as a kid. "Mother" should be on Blind Melon's Best Of album, specifically this version.
Plus he was actually a cool as hell. In interviews I seen anyway. Watch 20 minute sessions. It’s hilarious when the guy tells him his voice is weak. They ask him to sing Joplin. He is a good sport and hands it to them on a silver platter. Then does a beatle song spoof its halarious
YES!!!! There is just something about this music on a sunny day. Kinda like a walk in the park, just on aaaaacid... woooopps I tripped. Any ways, love you Shannon...............
I miss Shannon hon I was fortunate enough to see them 3weeks before he died they have much talent why are all these great musicians have to die man this sucks
@thunderkisstsky fortunately and happily discovered this song on one of the 3 or 4 Melon Patch CD's. the power of this song is strong and frightening yet soothing ("her hands are held out to for you"). yet he speaks truth whether that be the soulfulness of his voice or the fellow bandmates that played this song with the HEART deservingly so.
I forget sometimes paper/magazines used to come in handy. I have the guitar tab book from both albums. 1st print. I don't really need it to learn anymore. Maybe I can mail it to you?
@TheBrosEpic "but who is going to notice?" It shouldn't matter who notices, whats the worth behind gaining someone's attention? It will only lead to judgement whether it be good or bad. It matters that YOU noticed, that Shannon Hoon noticed, connection is powerful but its your connection to have, and its importance is all in your mind.
Sam Deal all I know is they now have some lyrical versions of this song going around and they obviously got the lyrics off of those lyric finder websites bc they do not fit with what he's singing if they can hear correctly they'd know it but their just in it for likes and people joining their channels. Pisses me off.
Guys it's on the 20th anniversary re-release of the self titled Blind Melon (Bumble Bee) debut album in 2016 which also includes bonus tracks from the previously unreleased Sippin' Time Sessions EP. Soul One is a great song as well, check it out...
Only the few understnd and relate to Blind Melon. Even fewer get Shannon. It hurts. Fucking hard!
right there with you man..........
Hear ya brother.
Me, too😢
He's one of the voices that goes straight to the soul. I cried when he passed & all these years later I'm still not over it. 🖤 hope he rests in peace
His voice cuts straight to my heart and soul too! I cannot believe he died, I still listen to him all the time

Lyrics
"The skies have darkened
and the seas have dried.
Your honest ways have turned to lies.
Your hands of promise
turned to hands of pain.
You take for granted the life that God create
The life that God created.
The frost and flowers
Mother gave to you,
the muffled whispers bleeding true.
And it doesn't matter how
what kind of eyes your looking through.
Do you see our Mother's dying?
Here's a picture for you.
I wanna paint this picture for you!
With every black choking for breath
and every inch closer to death.
Her hands are held out for you.
You said the reasons
we're in the cities that we all made
was that we rage our poor Mother.
Poor Mother.
Poor Mother.
Now that she's leaving
and she's thrown off all that she gave,
we dig the grave
of our poor Mother!
The grass ain't growing
in my front yard, no.
Poor Mother.
Poor Mother.
Poor Mother.
Thank you for the lyrics. Very helpful.
Gracias
So underrated. That voice is just not paralleled. Such a soulful and skillful voice.
