Buzzin' Cousins - Sweet Suzanne

  • After much searching I finally tracked down this song.
    I used to love this as a kid, despite never really being that into country music.
    From what I gather, the Buzzin' Cousins were a one-off supergroup consisting of John Mellencamp, Dwight Yoakam, John Prine, Joe Ely, and James McMurtry.
    They only recorded this one song, for the soundtrack to Mellencamp's film Falling From Grace.
    The guy who had this uploaded had his account terminated, and the only other one on youtube has the ending cut off, so I figured I should put it up myself.
    R.I.P. John Prine

    Mellencamp should really get this one out there on Spotify and/or a physical CD release of rarities.

    Doesn't get any better than this. Great song. This song is from John Mellencamp's, 1992 Falling from Grace movie. One of my fav movies. If you listen real close in the roller skating scene, this song is playing in the background. The ones who saw the movie will know what I'm talking about.

    Thank you for finding, and sharing, this. I have always been a Cougar/Mellencamp fan ... came across John Prine later and love him ... Yoakam wasn't always my first choice, but I didn't hate him ... and I heard a song about a rooster a year, or so, ago and became a Joe Ely fan, so this is fucking astonishing! I cannot believe that these five guys collaborated and it didn't become the greatest thing the world had ever seen. Or heard. Or both.

    Thanks for posting. Hadn't heard this in years, so I played it several times.
    First heard this on the local country station in about 1992. Too bad the Buzzin' Cousins didn't make a whole LP.
    I bought Falling From Grace DVD and CD. Love this tune. Voices are so crisp.

    Speaking of John Prine... search for Steve Goodman's album "Somebody Else's Problems" and you will see on the cover Jimmy Buffet (credited as Marvin Gardens) and John Prine, next to Jimmy. The photo was taken by a photographer in Chicago, in a loft I later worked in.

    Now, Right now,
    Look at the place I` m in,
    When i think about things that i could have done
    It´s impossible for me tp pretend.
    But i see it now as the lights grow dim
    and the world starts to close its eyes.
    i just wanted to say goodnight,
    Sweet Suzanne.
    I hear the music playin`
    but i no longer understand,
    Around the corner, down the street
    I´ts got to be better than where i am.
    I see it all now, as the light grows dim
    And the world starts to close its eyes.
    I just wanted to say goodnight,
    Sweet Suzanne.
    I just wanted to say goodnight,
    Just wanted to see if everything was all right,
    Just wanted to say goodnight,
    Sweet Suzanne.
    Time goes by
    Oh, so quietly,
    Hazy days and memories
    And in the end there was only me.
    Wouldn`t have been, i ask sometimes,
    But i see myself inside this rhyme.
    Enjoyed what i had back then,
    Would i do it again?
    Well, I see it now
    As the lights grow dim
    I just wanted to say goodnight,
    Sweet Suzanne.
    I just wanted to say goodnight,
    I just wanted to see if everything`s all right
    Just wanted to say goodnight,
    Sweet Suzanne.
    I just wanted to say goodnight,
    I just wanted to see if everything` s all right,
    I just wanted to say goodnight,
    Sweet Suzanne.
