About 2 Meter Sessions
====================
Based in the Netherlands, 2 Meter Sessions is an independent, ongoing (new) music platform with a great legacy. Monthly we film 3 to 4 sessions with promising and breakthrough acts from all over the world.
Many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993).
The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zeeland band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands.

Came from the future2034 to tell you he also sang for a few guns n roses songs.
But yeah take notes
Emotion and feeling
Awesome sessions!!!
dood was amazing
did you take down the other video of this that didnt have the beginning cut off?
Did Blind Melon perform "Change" during these sessions; is there a link? 🙂
People write a lot about the 90's singers that passed away like Cobain, Staley, Cornell or Weiland, and rightfully so. However Hoon deserves to be mentioned up there with the others... RIP
Your comment is great.!! I absolutely agree, and for some reason I have been digging into the blind melon history lately. His voice on this song was hypnotic. Maybe that's just me, but it seems to be correct. Anyways love your comment.
@@pisceandreams5893 Thanks buddy! He really was a phenomenal singer.
Comparing this dude with Cornell is the greatest idiocy I have ever read. He's not worthy of shinning Cornell's shoes!
@ you missed his point he never said he was as good as The Grunge singers he just got mad and he passed on in the 90s they both are great singers just different styles of music it's all your opinion of what kind of music you like some people would hate our style of music and say that we suck but that's their opinion I personally love Grunge and all of the singers just thought you might want to know he's not saying that he is as good as your favorite singer just that he passed on in the 90s and should be remembered
Mmmm I’m pretty sure he is always mentioned amongst these other stars...
Shannon Hoon was the link between 90s grunge and 60s psychedelic rock. That connection was severed when he died and nobody ever really reestablished it.

Those two eras were like reset's on the commercialization of the industry.
This song always reminded of 1967 Grateful Dead
For those of you who are too young to remember this guy, when this song came out it was HUGE. On the radio ALL DAY. Still an iconic song to this day
I remember and miss the 90's what a great decade and the 80's too 🥲and I remember this song playing on MTV with the lil bee gurl 🥲ah man those were the times!
I missed the 90s by a fuckin inch but thanks to my parents being fresh out of high school when they had me I was raised around a lot of that culture. This song brings me right back to growing up in the early 2000s and I love every second of it! 🤙🏻
The video played probably twice an hour for 3 years on MTV
I remember it being played CONSTANTLY and never getting sick of it... Still gives me goosebumps hearing Shannon's voice.
This video shows just how effortlessly he sings it. I can get close but it takes a LOT of forcing and it's not half as good as his voice
Or remember in the don’t Cry song and video by guns and roses , he sang on the song
No one will ever read this, but this song makes me think about my friend Myke. I haven't seen him in years and unfortunately he is most likely putting a needle in his arm. He was such a bright spirit and musician and this song was always something we jammed. i don't know if I will ever see him again but I hope i do.
i read it my friend & i hope you´ll see your friend someday again
feel sorry for you man, hope you'll see him again someday.
I will read it
If u do see him pls let us know Jim, lots of us read it and hope u guys meet again, hope Myke`s doing ok...cheers
He's doing the best he can just like you are. Hope you guys are reunited in this life.
In '92 I was tending bar late on a Sunday night @ Daddy Warbux in Ybor City, Tampa. Textbook dive bar, nothin' happenin'. "Auto" comes in and asks if I wanna see a band after I close, says his buddy's workin' the door and we can get in for free. I'm in. So we go to the pool 'n' pub, stroll in and the place is EMPTY. It's an old theater with the seats removed and the floor's slanted so all the tables wobble. there's like 5 or 6 people and this band starts playing. They play a whole set without a word because there is no crowd to acknowledge. I'm thinkin,' these guys are pretty good, where's the fans? A few weeks go by and I hear "No Rain" on the radio and the video's a huge hit on Mtv. I instantly recognize the song and surmise that these guys were readying themselves for a tour. Close brush with greatness.
Dan Tierney thanks for taking the time to share! Interesting. Once in a life time right place right time moments
Nice story.
Ybor a shithole back then?
@@wyleeelpuppo4868 not like it is now. Still the gritty drug laden heaven it is now but death was three streets away not next to you at the bar.
Dan Tierney - Cool story. Thanks for sharing!
He was the 90's male Janis Joplin.
RIP Brother, we haven't forgot you and we still love you.
Your comment is great. But I hear that comparison alot from people and I don't know about all that. He never really RIPS loose on a song like Janis Joplin did. He does a little bit and especially on the Woodstock video. I get what your saying and why your saying it,, but I don't know about being next to Joplin.
@@pisceandreams5893 No, his comment is NOT great. It's very stupid actually.
Wtf Janis Joplin? Not even close, I mean, Jim Morrison or Robert Plant were most similar to her
Marcus King is the male
Janis Joplin.. fight me
Layne would be male 90’s Joplin
His vocals seem so effortless! Easily my favourite Blind Melon video.
Dale Tracey he was a dick head
Dale Tracey he addlibbed sooo well “ho ho ho! Merry Christmas” 🙂 or “all I can say, is the Velvet Underground is great”💙
Q Tē nooooo you don’t know SHIT! He was a brat like I was at that age his mother keeps him alive Shannon was no Dickhead he was a genius
@@qte5530 your mum is a dick head
@@qte5530 u knew shannon?
Shannon is such an underrated singer & really does deserve more recognition
Absolutely
@Gout Lord and you're a Millenial shit? Right?
One of the best 90s rock voices for sure.
@@TheSantiTuber ,Absolutely!
Good job Shannon?
Every time I see Shannon I think about how someone said that he was a jock in high school. Trying to picture him on the football team is hard for me. Great talent, sad he went away so soon.
:D
Not all Jocks are bullies and meatheads but most midwestern guys wrestled. Try not putting everything in a box and maybe you’ll understand his music a little better too.
ruclips.net/video/EIkoqLz9uhQ/видео.html
@@mdpatterson99999 Little acid and Mescaline helped too. :D
Imagine him with short hair and it’s easy
I love the "ho ho merry Christmas" line. Shannon was having fun improvising while also making the song better at the same time.
best
In one performance of this song he sang "All I can say is Velvet Underground is great"
Hey, MTV kids of the 90's! How lucky were we to live in one of the greatest musical periods in history. A mini flower era. Love my life!
Lucky ??
MTV was the start of the decline of good music !
Appearance became more important than artistic values and freedom !!
FUCK MTV 🤢🤮
Mini flower area, I like that😊
This song is incredibly sad, sang by a smile and upbeat music.
I found it happy-sad
Compassion for the girl who doesn’t fit in with people who don’t understand her…
And then how easy life is when she finds her tribe
He just sings in that extremely hard acute pitch with the same effort he does when breathing, amazing
It makes ones jaw ache and lock up after extended singing.
today is Shannon's Birthday!
Forever missed, You'll always be special to me!
R.I.P
"ho ho ho merry christmas"

Literally made me chuckle
I got a little belly laugh out of it
This looks like it was recorded last year. 90’s has come full circle.
I'm thankful we had Shannon for the short time we did. What a gift to music.
Didn't see your comment before my post. Different words, but same sentiment 🌹
God took Shannon to heaven. Shannon was so young and... so good for being among ordinary people. He was outstanding person. RIP Shannon.
@@gsxrkz With all respect, think you’ll find that although you only know one song, many thousands of people know a lot of their material and have an extensive knowledge of Blind Melon’s back catalogue. Many people may even have watched them perform live, bought their memorabilia and therefore have been slightly upset when he died at such a young age. As such, those same people may have looked up videos of Blind Melon playing on RUclips and written melancholy, wistful comments about Shannon Hoon. Stay safe, wherever you are. And also, have a listen to some of their stuff; it’s pretty good 👍
He had such masterful control of his singing voice
Shannon was an amazing vocalist. What a gift to have.
I grew up loving this song. Never realized how hard it is to sing. And he sang it with so much style. It makes me so sad.
who abandoned his daughter...
Zurich Davis he didn’t really abandon her
I'm a 54 yr old and I keep coming back to these different versions of this song. Absolutely love this kids' way of hanging it out there. A talent that and a really tragedy how the demons ate him up ...
me too. awesome song
Same. Would've liked so much more of his music. Just glad he gave us what he had before he left us🌹
I used to trip acid up in the mountains of Colorado with friends when I was in my early 20s and this song was always an integral part of the trip. such positive vibes when you're peaking and totally out of your mind.
45 here and right there with you. Imagine I'll be saying the same when I hit 55.
He's tripping off his box haha. Memories of the 90s. R. I. P Shannon Hoon. Effortless beautiful voice
I couldn’t put my finger on it how tuned in he was lmfao. Makes perfect sense
It's like a curse on me. The day I discover a great band and a singer and I come across this heart melting comment 😢
I love the way Shannon always improvised and altered his lyrics and vocal melodies in his live sessions so seamlessly and effortlessly. Wonderful singer and a even better musician.
Shannon’s voice is so unique and he was such a great artist. Absolutely one of my favorite singers ever 😁
I don't know who you are Debbie but I think I'm in love with you
My dad smoked weed with Shannon and got to chill with him a few times when they came to St. Louis. My dad would go back stage and chill with some badass people. He said this man was one of the coolest and laid back people he's ever made contact with.
I saw Blind melon in Milton Keynes England 6 months before this was recorded. Supporting Guns n Roses. With The Cult and Soul Asylum. One of the best days of my life. My 16 year old daughter has just got into Blind Mellon. Listen to het play her music its like me as a teen. Hoing back in time. Kind of special. ❤
That would have been the best of my life, also. What a concert it must have been.
I was there too mate
One of the most hypnotizing performances I’ve seen. But man, those lyrics are relatable.
“I just want someone to say to me ‘I’ll always be there when you wake’ and all I can do is read a book to stay awake and it rips my life away but it’s a great escape”
crazy to see how drastically he changed in only 2 years... he seemed so happy here
His eyes looked sober too.....
He was happy clear up until yhe hour of his death with a new baby, just was at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Bring me to tears
He has the most wonderful smile.
He was such an amazing talent. Shannon had a unique voice that's still missed today.
Hoax
productions yes your channel is a hoax
@@electrickrain I work for a living. I don't have time for a RUclips channel u fkn prick. Get a life
Such A Beautiful Voice. Now He Is Singing With The Angels.
This song reminds me of being young when everything was so great really reminds me of my dad being young so awesome taught me to play this song when I was 10 miss you every day dad love you so much wish you could’ve met your grand kids
Da Vinci so sorry about your dad. I teach my 7 year old all about good music. Hope he always remembers that about me when I’m gone someday
30yrs yesterday when this was recorded fucking crazy and I’m 34 pretty much my whole life crazy rip shannon
what a beautiful voice I remember when I was a kid hearing this song. Too many good musicians gone in the 90's. RIP thank you for your music
This version is a gift from god.
Never hear anyone talk about how great his voice is. Just as good as the rest of the grunge guys. Pure talent. Lost too soon.
I mean, I’ve talked about it since 95 or so
So love this band, named my first son Shannon
erix bixera I’m getting my name changed when I turn 18. My middle name will be Shannon.
@Buford Montgomery Someone named you fucking "Buford"! You lose!
Haha hahaha
ROOKTABULA - touché! 😁😄😆
shannons a girls name over here lol
Shannon and Buford are both stupid fucking names. Quit naming your stupid kids with stupid names.
Blind Melon is one of my all time favorite bands. Soup is a near perfect album, and I like to imagine it's what Zeppelin would have put out in the 90s if they stayed on the same trajectory they were on in the 70s. Shannon's death is a real tragedy.
Incredibly gorgeous voice. Incredibly gorgeous guy. That smile...So tragic ......
Incredible. Just incredible!
It rips my life away,but its a great escape......and everyday i need ah little bit of one
eres una mujer muy bella
This takes me back to the most wonderful time in my life, deeply in love with a wonderful family, sadly like Blind Melon it did not last. RIP.
One of the best vocalists of all time. Doesn't get enough credit from that generation. He's up there. The band itself was extremely talented too
This song, for me, epitomized the 90s.
agree
Thats because he just broke out before he OD
He’s good, but I wouldn’t go that far.
@@natas-6747 agreed , he's not a Robert Plant or Ian Gillan type Singer . He's a good Singer.
Poor Shannon. He had such a sweet smile.
October 2019... hus watching listening and still admiring this art?
Right here with ya.
This shit will stand the test of time.
December man
Jan 2020: cant get enough.
feb 2020 :D
Miss him so much. Such a talented guy.
It is 3am on a Monday, and I have watched this video 2 times in a row. My whole week feels amazing already. Thank you Shannon and Blind Melon, and 2metersessions.
Shannon was an amazing vocalist. What a gift to have.
Shannon,Layne, and Chris are singing together today💕
love when great musicians find THAT one singer that fits them perfectly without trying to change them. such a loss. this is perfect.
he has such a contagious smile
I adore this video. So innocent, so fresh, so happy. So much love for Shannon❤️
Shannon will forever hold a place in my heart. This is such a deep version of this song. Gone too soon, but you left your mark.
He sings so amazing and with so little effort bless this man rip
Really love how he throws lil side comments in between each line, seemed like a real fun guy.
I get acid flashbacks just seeing this. That tingle of when it comes on strong. The happiness that follows. Damn I miss this time. RIP
tehf00n totally feeling same thing!!! Such a good “trippy” part of my life, my friends dad had 20+ acres in the mountains here in Utah called El-Rancho-Gaviota and the cabin had a big stage built off the side of it and a generator to power all the equipment. All our homies were in bands so once or twice a month we would have a big “ol” rager (kegger) with like 10-15 bands playing all weekend, and they one of our local head shop owners would set up his R.V. With a table w/ a huge bag of shrooms, super kind bud, pipes bongs etc... and another dude we called “Circus” who was a super dead head from the 60’s and always had a bible of the strongest cleanest acid. And after 2-3 a.m. I would dj and would blast this or mouth full of cavities, galaxy and like 40-60 people who were tripping would lay along the cliff and stare up at the crystal clear sky as the music would echo through the canyon. By far the best years of my life!!!! Damn I miss the 90’s !!!!! We still have a blast up there but we’re all older now and not as crazy 😝 but damn what a fucking great time in our lives!!!!!!!👽🥴🤯🥳🤪🎸🥁🎤🎼🎹🎸🌒oh and Pink Floyd!!!🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓
oink ooink you’re so jealous
oink ooink prosecution involving psychedelics has done far more harm than the substances themselves.
Easily one of my favorite 90's bands. I miss you.
"All I can say tho that my life its pretty plain, and I like watching the puddles gather rain, and all I can do is just pour some tea for too, and maybe even speak my point of view but it's not sane nooo! It's not saneeee!" 🎧🎼
We still feel it!!
Rip brother, your truly missed and your singing as well
Mad, this song always makes me feel happy and sad at the same time! Love it.
They just don't make em like this anymore. Song brings so many memories of growing up.
They do. Go support those artists too.
@@goldenhourkodak I don't think they do (personal opinion). So naw I'm good.
@@hwl-__ Have you even attempted to find any of this music from today?
Tears
I got tickets to see them in cambridge ma. He passed away before we could use the tickets. RIP
Tom Han really?!? My cousin has those tix in a frame in her wall! Was it the Middle East? I can’t remember small world.
i feel bad liking your post
The time changes and melody changes are so nice
What a beautiful voice and soul
Miss him, sad song
First time I’ve ever seen anything from them live and it’s pretty damn awsome to be honest and your right he makes the vocals seem effortless
This stuff makes me sad and happy all at the same time. I now understand what parents saw when they watched videos from the 60s and 70s. To all the kids today this is ancient history to me it was just yesterday that i was in 8th grade listening to this!
This was filmed on my actual birthday! 11/10/1993!
He sang this so effortlessly! Such a raw talent he had, so sad he left us so soon x
if you only knew what it is to a guitarist to have your voice.
can you explain this comment?
this song is tough to play and sing and Shannon sings real well, is wht I think they mean, as a guitarist myself
Diego Leiva he means he has a naturally unique timbre and very good technique, even if you’re a good guitarist you might not make it in the “big leagues” without something memorable like a voice like that.
He was a decent guitarist too. One of the greatest losses ever. Miss him every day.
Patrick Fay Every. Day. Well said bruh
This is the best thing I’ve ever heard
Man, he was only a kid....Now that I have two sons about the same age he had when he died, it's really sad...Never noticed before he had a great voice....
This session turned 28 years old today. Shannon has always gotten me through dark times. RIP Shannon you are missed everyday.
This reminds me so much of the early 90’s when I lived in a little NYC apartment in Hell’s Kitchen. Crackhead on the top floor, no internet, no cellphone, hell I didn’t even have a tv. Just my little boom box, cds, tapes, and stacks of books to read. What a great time.
Sounds like you’re describing prison lol
@@spotless7241 other than the crackhead, it was a great place and a great time. Listened to lots of music and read lots of books. Perhaps some people in prison experienced this as well. I think my food was probably better and I got to go out everyday.
What music were ya blastin' then?
@@holaespanoldewisconsin7153 I was listening to everything. Jazz, classical, soul, reggae, blues, folk, grunge, and some speed metal. It was a special time. I was free. Broken up with a long term girlfriend, trying to figure out what to do with my life, working as a waiter, reading tons of books, newspapers, going to the $1 movie theater to watch second runs. It was a special time. I sort of wish I could go back to it.
@@clacicle damn, sounds like me.
Effortless!!! Never heard of this band before just seen a 30 sec clip on Instagram and now I'm gone down a rabbit hole for the last 2 hours😂 great sound 👏👏
Listen to the first record, and Soup, in their entirety.
The band still performs from time-to-time with Travis Warren filling in on vocals. They still put on a great show.
@@pamcm1098 definitely will check it out
Gosh, I miss that beautiful voice, that smile, that face. 😢💕 I sometimes think about what Shannon would be doing today if he were still alive. I can picture him being a solo singer/songwriter, though still jamming w/ Blind Melon. He’d probably be an activist and philanthropist, too. But most of all, he’d still be the sweet-natured person that he seemed to be, and helping people thru his incredible talent.
Beautiful unique voice & man💔
Shannon pulled his headset off at the end knowing what he was singing was best. PLEASE!
Beautiful ❤️
That's what talent looks like
How could anyone dislike this? Baffling!
Scotty N I’m kinda pissed if I’m the bassist. Such a signature part and they never even show him.
theShutUpShop especially because he wrote the song
This sounds like 70’s folk bands! I love it
WOW TY! He has an amazing voice no autotune pure talent and magical!
God how we all miss him and the guys so badly. Anyone here from VB, remember old school show at the old Boat House, those were the days, he was so talented, till the needle took over. RIP, hello Nico Blue...
That was a good show! Meat Puppets were the opener.
@@frankdelatank8454 you were their too, so you remember him ending the show, because all the crazy navy guys causing mosh pit madness. We all just hung around didn't leave and all bad folks left hour later lights just went off stage lights up & Shannon cones out and says ok now this is my people, smoke everywhere jammed another 2hrs , God I loved the boat house been gone long time. You and I might know each other, glad and suprise to see so many likes to my comment, sad another star taking by the needle. Take care, Cheers
lol that name
@@ricardosarin7442 the women R Smarter, it's a dead tune Bobby use to do vocals on...
Beautiful! Wowowow ! Voice of an angel ❤❤❤ young beautiful son , man talented beyond words
In 2021 feb, i still listening n love this band...this song..greeting from Indonesia.
Wow 😲 this version is amazing.
Back in the early 90s went to see Ozzy at Spartan Stadium in San Jose.. 2 unknown groups opened, Alice in Chains and Blind Melon.. Instant fan!
Almost make you cry, so beautiful....
Priceless smile at the end, that will live on for ever thanks to this amazing footage...Shannon RIP. you are missed by a generation.
What had happened to music in todays world?
He's is such a beautiful boy...Sigh...a young life with such a gift. taken too soon:(
I remember the day he passed away. Was in my car when the news broke over the radio. I was crushed. Still am. Such a great talent. Such a great singer. Unique voice. You could play a thousand songs and know which one was Blind Melon's based on his voice. Just to echo what a lot of others in this thread are saying.....Shannon Hoon and Blind Melon, totally underrated and underappreciated. You're truly missed Shannon.
My favourite hippie😁 So beautiful
RIP Brother... thank you for the music
Can we just appreciate the fuckin harmony in the man's voice I mean my goodness
Awwww, sweet nostalgia! Loooooove that song, and what an incredible rendition! 🤗
Amo essa música 😍
Somos 2,rsrsrs.
Wow!!!! What a voice!!!!
Una joya de canción siempre será una de mis favoritas....el comentario en español que esperaban jajaja
I miss the music from the Nineties that was a good decade for us that was when the great music came about even though we got the footsteps from other decades.
Shine on you crazy Diamonds
