The original song was a favorite back in the day, so I wasn't sure how an acoustic version could live up to it. They have taken the song to a new level here. Awesome version.
Agreed. I was very impressed by this vocal performance. The 90s hard rock/grunge era provided is with some of the best songs and vocalists Earth has ever had.
@@curtismah1261 I listen to this album from start to finish on the regular! "Don't You" and "Arrow"...makes you want to punch someone in the boy parts! 🤣
Thanks for the great love ❤️ and support you show me as a special fan of mine😍, I hope you won't stop listening to tracks , and thanks for your sincere Compliment and love towards my tracks ❤️may God bless you.
13 years old when this song came out. I remember buying the CD and playing this + YOU over and over again. Plenty of tough times came and went in my life, and Candlebox was always there for me.
I always say the pure soul of a song is revealed when it's played acousticly. And this is about as raw and powerfull as it comes.. I can not listen to it without shedding a tear, especially when the "but you couldn't share your pain, noooooooooo" and then when one of the best solo's of the last 3 decades starts in... One of the most heartfelt and pure songs ever
The rock and soft rock radio stations in Houston plays this song everyday, which isn't bad but that being said I think it's kinda sad they play their songs more than Alice in Chains or soundgarden which is weird. Houston radio stations suck. Queens of the stoneage songs for the deaf concept actually makes since to me now
Thanks for the great love ❤️ and support you show me as a special fan of mine😍, I hope you won't stop listening to tracks , and thanks for your sincere Compliment and love towards my tracks ❤️may God bless you.
Seen them do an acoustic show at the Hard Rock casino in Biloxi Mississippi a few years back. One of the best acoustic shows I've ever seen anyone do they absolutely killed it..
this is my mom’s favorite song, she says it was her and her brothers song before he passed away. i never got to meet my uncle, but every time I listen to this song I imagine what he was like, how close we would’ve been, all the trouble he would’ve helped me get into as I grew up. my mom always tells me I remind her of my uncle Kenny so much, I wish you didn’t have to leave us far behind🤘❤️
Just lost lost my wife of 35 yrs, 2 bouts of lung cancer and addiction. I'll be homeless in 1 month. I was her caretaker for 10+ yrs. I'm not disabled or quite 60 yrs old, I retired after 28 yrs at a local chemical co.,so they took her SSI from me. Off the soapbox. We absolutely loved Candlebox. In my truck, we used to scream at the top of of our lungs to "Candlebox Frogstomp" Peace y'all. Take care. ✌️
Song is kinda heartbreaking, as with many songs you don’t realize it until you read the lyrics, played this song over and over growing up, and just realizing now how heartbreaking it truly is. Amazing version.
Kevin, you sound amazing and keep on keeping on. You've captured my feelings in this song since I was 5 years old in 1999. It has a special place for me
This is my child hood right here! Was browsing some older songs and I’ve gotten into acoustic as of late and wow! He still got it and this is an incredible rendition! The guitar 🎸 was outstanding 👏🏼
FUCKING AMAZING !! .My dad had a Rock band in the 80's, he was a guitarist but he fell into heroin in the 80's and 90's .. He died last week with 57 years old The 90's were heavy , lot of drugs especailly heroin . Kevin is one of the few grunge survivors along with Eddie Vedder and others who still rock!!
This brought tears to my eyes!!! I lost one of my best friends to suicide in November of 2022. To me, this is arguably better than the original version.... THANK YOU CANDLEBOX for all the memories and music for the past 30 years.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤘🤘🤘
Partied with these guys back in the day. How many great songs came from the untimely death of Andrew Woods, he was truly loved in the Seattle scene. Such an awesome band and how awesome do they sound today! Amazing....
Wow! Absolutely fantastic performance. I’ve been on a Candlebox retro binge recently and re-discovered many tunes. This is legit one of the very best acoustic performances I’ve ever heard and this song is timeless; it hits harder today than it did back then.
Thanks for the great love ❤️ and support you show me as a special fan of mine😍, I hope you won't stop listening to tracks , and thanks for your sincere Compliment and love towards my tracks ❤️may God bless you.

I along with millions of others I would assume have taken this deeply personal song and intertwined it in our lives. That first crush. That first kiss . Thank you Mr. Martin for this gift from somewhere not found on this earth.
They sold millions of albums. They did ok. Even without the lead guitarist and probably other original member(s) ,Kevin is still able to tour as Candlebox thirty years after they were popular.
Pica demais !!! Pqp ! Só quem viveu nos anos 90 sabe! A energia daquela década. Consigo sentir até o cheiro da minha juventude com essa música ! 👏👏👏 Obrigado !!!
Saw these guys 12 years ago live on SLC. At that time they were essentially forgotten and unknown. Im so glad they are played more and get the recognition they deserve. Tiok me years to re discover them. They were forgotten in the early 00s because of all the other incredible music in the 90s.
I have loved you guys FOREVER! I am 60 now. Glad we both survived it....me almost no. Opiates since 1995. I got clean on Suboxone 5 years ago. Lonnnngggg time out there...I forgave myself...others did not, so I left them Far Behind...❤❤❤Jeannie in Lakeport California
Trying to get my kids to learn …. So much great music out there this version of the original is what I experienced of so many rock club live versions back in the 90s. I would pay $5-$15 to be in a shoulder to shoulder crowd and hear phenomenal music at the time that others weren’t aware of…. This is phenomenal.. and I’ll share with kids. Appreciated.
That is a solid acoustic live solo to perfection man!! Last I saw this guy perform it was 1993 at the off ramp in Seattle. Back when it was cool to live near it.
Thanks for the great love ❤️ and support you show me as a special fan of mine😍, I hope you won't stop listening to tracks , and thanks for your sincere Compliment and love towards my tracks ❤️may God bless you.
The original song was a favorite back in the day, so I wasn't sure how an acoustic version could live up to it. They have taken the song to a new level here. Awesome version.
This isn't a "cover" that is actually CANDLEBOX 💗
You should see a live version where after the solo they throw in a little bit of a Led Zeppelin song then dive right back into far behind. Fantastic.
Not a cover
@@trevoratkins3865 I know it's not a cover per se, I should have said "acoustic version" (Changed it because people keep replying about it)
🤣🤣 a cover? Not a cover man 🤣🤣🤣 it's Candlebox lol. He just got old and hairier.
This version of the song brings the joys of life and yet tears to my eyes for the tragedies of life. Amazing voice and song!
Yes! 🙌 this comment. Should be the vibe of this all.
This song was written for Andrew Wood, singer of Mother Love Bone. He died
in Seattle on March 19, 1990, at the age of 24, following a drug overdose.
He took it while in MLB, then Eddie didn't have to die for PJ, only living OG grunge singer.
"Maybe" was changed last minute from "Annnnndy"
He's protected his voice over the years, you can tell by how well he still sings! Very nicely done!
Agreed. I was very impressed by this vocal performance. The 90s hard rock/grunge era provided is with some of the best songs and vocalists Earth has ever had.
Facts! What an experience to hear them live ❤
I saw them live a couple years back and even going all out live his voice held up incredibly. Sounded like the 90's @@BlyndCyclopz
Absolutely 👍🏻
Awesome. Raw and beautiful. This song never gets old to me. I simply get older.
Candlebox got a raw deal. Probably one of the best bands in the last 40 years.
It's such bs. This band is phenomenal
Unbelievably talented band. Especially kevin
I always thought they would blow up bigger than Pearl Jam, what happened? I played this CD until my player needed cleaning
100 friggin percent!!❤❤ Jeannie
@@curtismah1261 I listen to this album from start to finish on the regular! "Don't You" and "Arrow"...makes you want to punch someone in the boy parts! 🤣
Always felt Candlebox, and Blind Melon were the 2 most underrated bands of the 90's.
And Sponge
I agree, 3rd eye blind as well
That first Blind Melon album was so perfect. That CD gets car play so often. So comfy like a warm blanket on a cold day.
Can’t forget Dishwalla
Blind melon yes, candlebox got a lot of love
one of the best song ever made
Thanks for the great love ❤️ and support you show me as a special fan of mine😍, I hope you won't stop listening to tracks , and thanks for your sincere
Compliment and love towards my tracks ❤️may God bless you.
I really hope these guys know how iconic they are to so many people!!!
13 years old when this song came out. I remember buying the CD and playing this + YOU over and over again. Plenty of tough times came and went in my life, and Candlebox was always there for me.
Same. And one of my best childhood friends od'd in 2007 and it took on a whole new meaning. Hard to listen to this without allll the feels 💙
WOW they still sound awesome . His voice is still as good and clear as it was at the beginning of the bands career. Great band
I always say the pure soul of a song is revealed when it's played acousticly. And this is about as raw and powerfull as it comes.. I can not listen to it without shedding a tear, especially when the "but you couldn't share your pain, noooooooooo" and then when one of the best solo's of the last 3 decades starts in... One of the most heartfelt and pure songs ever
Watching versions over 2 & 3 decades old makes you appreciate this song that much more
Iconic song from the 90’s amazingly performed.
Kevin's voice is still phenomenal.
The lost brother of Brett Scallions
@@katharsis3754 Not so much, for me his voice is more like Chris Robinson from Black Crowes.
@@diegomazzaron9191100% agree
@@katharsis3754his voice is shot now. More like Chris Robinson Black Crowes
My absolute favorite band of all time. That unmistakable voice!! Memories of a good life…..😢
If any acoustic song can come close to such an unreal original classic, it’s this one.
Come close? Nah, it's just okay.
He deviates too much from the original
Fall of 1994, what a great time! This is probably one of my favorite songs of the 90s.
Super underrated. Shouldve been a regular radio rotation. Should still be in rotation!!!
I thought it was?
I have to agree,wholeheartedly..
It is. Its played constantly all over the US.
I still hear it pretty often the radio thankfully
The rock and soft rock radio stations in Houston plays this song everyday, which isn't bad
but that being said I think it's kinda sad they play their songs more than Alice in Chains or soundgarden which is weird.
Houston radio stations suck. Queens of the stoneage songs for the deaf concept actually makes since to me now
Most underrated voice and songwriter.
fucking A right.......
In the end, it's always the passion that moves me, and 30+ years in, I still feel it
Awesome ❤ I was just transported back to 17 years old, listening to this song on repeat.
Thanks for the great love ❤️ and support you show me as a special fan of mine😍, I hope you won't stop listening to tracks , and thanks for your sincere
Compliment and love towards my tracks ❤️may God bless you.
Amazing! Just Amazing!
I loved this song when it first came out. After my husband’s death in 2020 is held an even more special place in my heart.
God bless you
one of the best acoustic versions of any song ever
Omgosh...I'm in Candlebox heaven...
Seen them do an acoustic show at the Hard Rock casino in Biloxi Mississippi a few years back. One of the best acoustic shows I've ever seen anyone do they absolutely killed it..
I love this band in the music is so real there's no Auto-Tune no backup singers 100% raw beautiful music
💯
this is my mom’s favorite song, she says it was her and her brothers song before he passed away. i never got to meet my uncle, but every time I listen to this song I imagine what he was like, how close we would’ve been, all the trouble he would’ve helped me get into as I grew up. my mom always tells me I remind her of my uncle Kenny so much, I wish you didn’t have to leave us far behind🤘❤️
He didn’t destroy his vocals through the years so sounds just like he did in 1993. ❤
Just lost lost my wife of 35 yrs, 2 bouts of lung cancer and addiction.
I'll be homeless in 1 month. I was her caretaker for 10+ yrs.
I'm not disabled or quite 60 yrs old, I retired after 28 yrs at a local chemical co.,so they took her SSI from me.

Peace y'all. Take care. ✌️
Top 3 of my favorite bands of all time candlebox rox!
Song is kinda heartbreaking, as with many songs you don’t realize it until you read the lyrics, played this song over and over growing up, and just realizing now how heartbreaking it truly is. Amazing version.
Written for Andrew Wood of Mother Love Band

One of my favorite songs, thank you!
This is my child hood right here! Was browsing some older songs and I’ve gotten into acoustic as of late and wow! He still got it and this is an incredible rendition! The guitar 🎸 was outstanding 👏🏼
This song breaks back memories of the 90s when my life was simpler and the world was not as crazy as the 2020s
Amen to that.
Amen
Ditto
Yes you are right
Amen.
Very well done one of those songs that can take you back in time and put you in the exact place and remember it like it was yesterday
FUCKING AMAZING !! .My dad had a Rock band in the 80's, he was a guitarist but he fell into heroin in the 80's and 90's .. He died last week with 57 years old
The 90's were heavy , lot of drugs especailly heroin . Kevin is one of the few grunge survivors along with Eddie Vedder and others who still rock!!

Thank you for helping me grieve my mother. 05 feels like yesterday so often God bless
Sounds phenomenal acoustic . His voice hasn’t withered at all
Cuanta nostalgia escuchar esta canción en esta versión acústica. Ya pasaron 30 años, 30 years dude!
90s!!
How does this not have more views. So good!
man, that note he hits @2:57 gave me goosebumps
Try 1:57 in their cover of Turn Me Loose ruclips.net/video/k8QW_db2uWI/видео.html He’s still got great pipes
Thanks for making rewind 🤣
Yes my friend
Humble man with a humble family. He deserves all things good that come his way.

Woah. That was a great performance.
Finally saw them in late 2023 after having tickets 5 times and never getting to go. Absolutely fantastic! One of the greats.
Saw them play back in the day, Malibu beach, Long Island. The greatest concert I’ve ever seen by FAR.
I along with millions of others I would assume have taken this deeply personal song and intertwined it in our lives. That first crush. That first kiss . Thank you Mr. Martin for this gift from somewhere not found on this earth.
That guitarist is awesome❤
Candle Box is so special to me. YOU GUYS ROCK 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼Hope to see you play the pacific NW soon
On tour with 3 Door Down this summer. Seeing them in Bend.
@@coreyandthecrew952 thank you for the heads up 🙏🏻
@Mike Olson lawn tix are cheap also. Looks kike they have a seated section up front. They must think we are getting old ir something
Great performance
THIS AN ACOUSTIC BANGER!!!! The emotion and notes from Kevin, plus master guitar skills take this version to an entirely different level!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸
OMG. That was SO AWESOME. Guitar and voice. Doesn't get better than that. Fantastic! LOVE his voice!!!
I believed that this band was going to explode. Great band and great songs.
Same. I thought they had Guns N' Roses potential for a follow up. Just goes to show you how hard it is to capture lightning in a bottle twice.
They sold millions of albums. They did ok. Even without the lead guitarist and probably other original member(s) ,Kevin is still able to tour as Candlebox thirty years after they were popular.
one of my all time favourite bands! So underrated in my opinion.

Brings me right back to my 20's....what a great time for music....voice still sounds amazing brutha....
These guys have always been awesome.
Brian Quinn is the man! I used to hangout with him and the band Octane in Philly years ago. Nice to see him still playing
Used to go see Octane twice a month 😃
I didnt know them personally but I have my first octane album signed by all of them 👍🏻 So many great shows.
Wow octane! That's a blast from the past for me.
My man can still blow. Awesome. Where did Rock and roll go?
Killer arrangement. So glad they did this and I got to hear it!
