I thought I'd toss this up on the tube after not being satisfied with the copy already up here. One of my all time favourite studio and live Crowes songs.
I lost my Dad last week and tonight, as I finished writing his eulogy for his service this Saturday, I'm taking a moment to listen to music for some comfort. This is my go-too tune. God I love this song!....Always have....... If you've still got your folks keep making memories and if they've passed on, cherish what you've got to hold on to. Cheers
I remember rioting my fathers eulogy 18 year old scotch Irish ☘️pub Beatles cover Band December 18 2004 I guess it was December 20 I had arrived in Bangkok the previous day and was headed to Phuket for a month for business.. I made a night of it I imagined that my old man was with me and we did our best to enjoy ourselves in boring old Bangkok. Circumstances changed my itinerary and I’d put off Phuket for a week I ended up in Phnom Penh On Christmas Day. PP was essentially off the grid in 04. Boxing Day I woke up to pounding on my door. Pickled and not lone I rod the scene like Hunter The mason taking advice from Lazlo. The Fear and Loathing in Cambodia was took 5 years to manifest but was definitely in a Gonzo mode. A week later I was under the gun and my deadline for my eulogy speech was just a knot wound tight inside my sweaty body. The bottle of Macallom 18 was still with me a duty free indulgence. Ice and Valium completed the unraveling of that knot that was affecting my judgement and values and my existence.The house dog a fan and large can lemon scented bug spray. The table was the cross cut of some rare tree. It was covered with hard translucent resign that made it sticky regardless of it cleanliness. My hosts bid goodnight as I summed up my fathers life in words and absentia. Scotch has a particular buzz. Tequila has this distinction though the feeling or high is no t similar has. Diazapans have a long half life and 72 to leave you body. Son 2-3 days of taking 2-3 tini blue pills the math is easy unless your on diazapans. One of the universes little pranks. My conscious arch and emotional fuel didn’t allow for any nonsense. And I was surrounded in nonsense. My ADD and additions were n match to $200 18 year old scotch and 10 cent 10 milligram Valium.. My muse was a Thai mutt that only spoke Thai. That worked out fine as she soon fell asleep at my feet.
Songs like Wiser Time were the soundtrack of my twenties during the nineties. Driving down a lonely stretch of road at 3 A.M. Coming from whatever. Going to who the heck cares. This song, and many others like this one, playing on the radio. Not a care in the world. My whole future ahead of me just beyond those headlights. I wish I could go back.
this song is severely underrated. It is my fave song from them. like how the song begins with the lyrics "No time left now for shame Horizon behind me, no more pain", then the video shows nothing but miles of endless roads. ive always felt many comforts in the vastness of the open road, its a place to lose and shed away the burdens of various pains. to clear your mind and cleanse your soul. to rediscover what many have yet to discover.
@@jackwyatt1218 Oh, I dunno. If you want to see just how free you really are take a look at Ukraine right now. Take a road trip into the vast openness of the US and be happy you won life's lottery. This song would be a great accompaniment, eh?
Those were the days. I was in my 20s and things were fun. No worries. Good friends. Good job. Good love from family. My daughter was my constant companion. I loved those days. Now it's just a distant fading memory but at least I smiled for the first time when I put this music on.
Bruce Kaphan is perhaps the best pedal steel guitarist in the world. Everything he touches is golden. Hardly anyone - even in the pedal steel community - know of him as he tends not do much trad ‘country’ stuff. But his CV includes Jellyfish, Jewel, David Byrne, Thomas Dolby, American Music Club, Sheryl Crow etc. That speaks volumes about his ability. His playing on this track is absolute perfection.
This song and Stone Temple Pilots Interstate Love Song are da BEST road trips songs EVER. I listened to this song on repeat during drive thru the Grapevine. Memories.
This album is great road trip music. Right up there with the Allman Brothers. Back when I used to do a lot of winter fishing and smoking of weed, I'd listen to my Jeff Beck double cassette of "Blow By Blow" and "Wired" as I heading out in the evening on the (mostly) vacant and dark highway on my way to my fishing destination. Cold and dark outside, rain coming down, wipers on, heater on, hot coffee beside me, plenty of cigarettes, lots of road snacks, half a doobie, the highway (mostly) to myself, and Jeff Beck blasting from the stereo. Great memories.
I remember driving in a friend's truck in upstate New York when I heard this album for the first time...the piece of equipment we were smoking out of flew out the window.(long story) and we were on the side of a dark desolate highway searching in the tall grass for our piece.....this song was blaring out of the windows. To be 21 again.....not a care in the world. This song always brings me right back to that night
ROAD TRIPPING SONG, I COUNTRY CRUZE TO THIS ALL THE TIME HERE IN THE HOOSIER STATE AND I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO THESE GUYS SINCE THE EARLY 1990'S AND THERE MUSIC IS ALWAYS GOOD AMERICAN 100% GOOD OLE U.S.A.

I'm trying to think of a righteous reply, because reply i must. What a fucking heartfelt thing you've said. It made me stop and really think. Thank you for reminding me of what great music can do for your heart. Many more need to find the magic of music. God bless your travels
Wonderful song - I fucking love Americana, can't get enough of it and I'm as English as you can get. Little Feat, Skynyrd, The Band, Dylan, The Byrds etc all this stuff enriches my life.
No time left now for shame Horizon behind me, no more pain Windswept stars blink and smile Another song, another mile You read the line every time Ask me about crime in my mind Ask me why another road song Funny but I bet you never left home On a good day, it's not every day We can part the sea And on a bad day, it's not every day Glory beyond our reach Fourteen seconds till' sunrise Tired but wiser for the time Lightning 30 miles away Three thousand more in two days On a good day, it's not every day We can part the sea And on a bad day, it's not every day Glory beyond our reach
I have never really been a big Crowes fan but, this song is wayyy underrated. The video with the road trip showing real Americana doesn't get any better. Man, I want to go on a road trip, now.
This song is so inspiring and beautiful in itself. A perfect composition of sound and words, unbelievly well written and performed by one of the best rock bands I have seen on stage. I am not execurating if i say, that this one is one of the finest songs written in the 90ties. :)
Hell yeah! Never seen the video before, but have always loved this song. It always takes me back to the time me and my best bud were chillin by the lake listening to the radio, drinkin, smokin, and we willed this tune to play. And it did!
They're not back together at all. Steve Gorman and Marc Ford aren't invited. They're touring as the Faux Crowes with terrible Live Nation. Back in the mid 90s, the band couldn't be touched. Now they're just some generic band with hired guns going through the motions for a paycheck.
I remember listening to this song the evening that I first got home with my America album all those years ago. I bought the record the day it came out, before stores like Wal-Mart and the rest complained about the pubic hair and blacked out the entire background on future pressings. A beautiful song.
Ok im going to get a copy of their album SOUTHERN HARMONY...I only have their first and their Greatest Hits...We need a good dose of real classic Rock n Roll!!!!!!
I love this group. I was never into them from the beginning...i was heavily into Saxon, Maiden, Purple Sabbath, Led Zep was is still the biggest to me...i love Rush, the Allman bros band, Free, Bad Company Skynyrds, The Eagles, all those 70s bands were awesome..the 80s were great as well...so many bands then specially late 80s..Badlands, Great White, i dont care what they say but Kingdom Come rocks as well...I like that they got this 70s Rock and Roll influenced...Heavy/bluesy part Metal Rock and Roll!!!! If you're into Blues rock...buy the Black Crowes Greatest Hits...also Listen BADLANDS Highwire, Devils stomp, The River, JAKE E. LEE and Ray Gillen...🌠🌠🌠🌠 .
I lost my Dad last week and tonight, as I finished writing his eulogy for his service this Saturday, I'm taking a moment to listen to music for some comfort. This is my go-too tune.

So Sorry Brother...
Lost my dad too 1 y ago covid, thanks for remeber this peaceful song
Freaking Amorica is one of the finest rock albums ever made.
Brian C. I so agree.
Amen brother
Had to have it the first time I heard it Great album
Agreed! So sad they haven't continued. If I had to get rid of all my CDs, except 10, Amorica would be a keeper.
2021 says
Yes
This is for the guy who just lost his Dad,God bless and may he keep his arms around u. Rock on brother
Good lord, do I miss the 1990's. A car, a beer, a joint and some Black Crowes is all I ever needed. Oh, to be young again. *sigh*
Right...miss those days
Great Musical Decade....
And not this crazy weed that’s everywhere today… good ol’ old school Mexican brick weed
The 90’s were the last great decade of music.
You are right!!!! Best Comment ❤

You hit the nail on the head.
The feels
@@horvaton "The feels"....MAGA is winning. It's always darkest before the dawn. A LIE may have speed, but TRUTH has endurance.
Same, good times. Wish I could hit rewind
One of my best friends funeral today. This was our getting wasted together tune. Much love to each and every one of you.
🙏😘
Reminds me of beautiful America as you drive through lonely towns. Strangely attractive, wiser for the times. Nostalgic
Nostalgia of FREEDOM.
Couldn't have said it any better

They always play the worst songs on the radio. It's their form of control. God Bless.
The open road is AMERICAN freedom.

I was only 22 when this song came out!
Listening to it now makes me think of all that has changed since then...
It makes you think of life...PERIOD!

Listened to this Tape when I was long haul trucking in. The early 90s
Wiser Time must rank as one of the best ever country rock songs.
I don't know HOW I missed this until a few years ago, now it's an obessions, I listen to it first thing everyday, crazy I know, it's brilliant.
Country, lol, it's not a country song, bro
Very closely parallels Dylan's Brass Bed from his Nashville Skyline album.
@@asgamingchannel4972 It has country qualities for sure. Overall, it's Cosmic American rock music- contains rock, folk, country, etc
...concur :)'@@roknfnrol
My fav Black Crowes song. Love the pedal steel in the intro
goosebumps it's so good...

Oh hell I've been addicted to this song ever since it was released. The Black Crowes music gives me goosebumps.
❤🤍💙
There is definitely something different about this song.
I drove over the road for decades after the military, this song helped me make it through the miles.
Chris is one of the best rock &roll singers ever.
14 seconds till sunrise. That hits hard.
This song and Stone Temple Pilots Interstate Love Song are da BEST road trips songs EVER. I listened to this song on repeat during drive thru the Grapevine. Memories.
Check out this album: Limbeck - Hi, Everything's Great

Amorica
Absolutely one their finest albums
When the brothers are getting along they can travel universes ❤️🎶✌️🌈🥀
Its a classic road song forever
Iowa
Good God where are the rock bands like this today?
No. Even the Black Crowes touring right now aren't this.
Wonderful song - I fucking love Americana, can't get enough of it and I'm as English as you can get. Little Feat, Skynyrd, The Band, Dylan, The Byrds etc all this stuff enriches my life.
July 3rd, 2019...here since I993...never gets old...so therapeutic & humbling 🌞✌
No time left now for shame
Horizon behind me, no more pain
Windswept stars blink and smile
Another song, another mile
You read the line every time
Ask me about crime in my mind
Ask me why another road song
Funny but I bet you never left home
On a good day, it's not every day
We can part the sea
And on a bad day, it's not every day
Glory beyond our reach
Fourteen seconds till' sunrise
Tired but wiser for the time
Lightning 30 miles away
Three thousand more in two days
On a good day, it's not every day
We can part the sea
And on a bad day, it's not every day
Glory beyond our reach
Gonna try to sing this for karaoke. So in love with this song since it came out
I'm pretty sure it's Love is beyond our reach
@@scottmcgovern8966 I had to check the liner notes on my cd but it says glory even though it sounds like love peace
Thank you
The out from the solos into the last chorus is one of the all-time greatest musical moments ❤️🙏
one of my all time fav songs ever! great album too!!
I love those chill- laxing guitar riffs at the beginning of this gem of a song.
Glory beyond our reach.....
The most sensual rock song ever.
🙌 yes! ❤️
I just love the crowes unconditionally, this has got to be my favourite song from my favourite album of theirs!
This song is amazing!
This song is an American masterpiece. 💜💜💜
agreed. what a great composition and the mood. angelic.
I have never really been a big Crowes fan but, this song is wayyy underrated. The video with the road trip showing real Americana doesn't get any better. Man, I want to go on a road trip, now.
Yes. Me too
Me too. I'm in Oklahoma... stop by and we'll hit the road. :)
Of course, this album would be along for the ride but, what are the other essential albums that you'd take?
Enchanting... This is so the truth.
Americana at it's finest...
this is some southern rock at its best
Who's the 1 person who gave this a thumbs down. Gonna kick their ass.
ever so often i re-watch this video, simply beautiful song. reminders of my travels across America on Greyhound buses. Black Crowes ruled.
I love this music and vídeo so much! Black crows is such a fascinate band.
Damn fine song.
Tom Shaw short and sweet too the point!!
Heard this song live tonight for the first time and it was amazing
Back in middle school... 30 years ago 😁, I would jam this song in my room all the time.
Hee Matthew...lol...This song is from Amorica i thought? 1994...24 years ago...

Rio de Janeiro/Brasil 🇧🇷🤟🏻
Banda foda man!
Pode crer turma do Rock and Roll falamos á mesma língua TMJ !!
thanks for putting this song up..raw energy
I found this song a while ago and am sooo glad I did. I think I've played it over 10 times in a few days. LOVE the pedal steel intro.
God bless Amorica
My favorite Black Crowes tune...as good as the first time I heard it
Love that "clean" guitar..perfect
Awesome driving song. I've been trucking 30 years and a definite go to song.
The Black Crowes are back together!
Musically, they are so much better together than they are apart.
Rock and roll has just come back to life.
They're not back together at all. Steve Gorman and Marc Ford aren't invited. They're touring as the Faux Crowes with terrible Live Nation. Back in the mid 90s, the band couldn't be touched. Now they're just some generic band with hired guns going through the motions for a paycheck.
Killer track. Definitely one of their best.
Every wiser time I hear this song, I think back to Kate Hudson at that time. Delectable.
I saw them in Rockford Illinois in 2007, and they opened with this song, great tune from a great band
I love this song..brings back such great memories..Times now are are bullshit.What has happened to music??
I like the way this video is not about going from one coast of America to the other, but about going right through the middle, from top to bottom.
A long drink in the evening. That would be the perfect mood for this song.....
There best tune. So many great guitar bits going on. Lap steel is a sweet touch.
I remember listening to this song the evening that I first got home with my America album all those years ago. I bought the record the day it came out, before stores like Wal-Mart and the rest complained about the pubic hair and blacked out the entire background on future pressings. A beautiful song.
I heard this song for the first time as I was driving home after breaking up with my girlfriend at the time (1994). Forever imprinted in my memory.
Awesome song
Ok im going to get a copy of their album SOUTHERN HARMONY...I only have their first and their Greatest Hits...We need a good dose of real classic Rock n Roll!!!!!!
Southern Harmony is a classic album. Just an FYI Wiser Time is on the equally excellent album Amorica.

I remember that wonderfull year... 1995 I miss it.
What an amazing song!!!!!!
Hauntingly beautiful.
Only 142,310 views for such a grat song and video its a shame. What´s wrong with the human race ?
How could 2 guys that dont like each other make music this beautiful ???
That's normal for our American bands. Unlike British, Canadian and Australian bands, we are lucky if our band's stay together more than 3 or 4 years.
They're brothers. That stuff runs deep.
Cain? Abel?
Oasis brothers did some great stuff as well
This has always ben my all time fav BC tune since the second I heard it
i.could.listen to this song all day
Such a roadtrip with the Robinson brothers would probably end in a bloodbath.
😆
This music video is beautiful
One of my fav videos
I always loved this song from the 90s but never really listened to the crows other music. They really are quality band.
Dec 22 2020 this song 🎵 still kicking ass until the end of days
Their best song, by far. They grew up with Amorica. I miss the 90s.
Brings me back to teenage times🤟
Right in the feels everytime!Timeless excellence.
Great memories ♡
My favorite Bc song
Banda que marcou um ciclo muito louco da minha Vida!
How can this not have millions of views??
I remember that summer
What a journey.
The Crows were singin along outside my open windows...fun
Mmmhmm karaoke... My favorite song . Chris's brothers a babei love Chris's hair and moves tho
