    Took my son to see Blues Traveler last night (5/19/23)….we now have a new fan.

    great music, awesome videos, and ginormous sideburns. Man I miss the 90's, the last decade of great music and Blues Traveler is one of the icons.

    Don't you give up don't allow disaster
    Don't you give up don't you let her win
    We're talking about a ";forever after";
    Don't you give up don't you dare give in
    Don't you give up don't you dare give in
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Doesn't it seem such a chance to take
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Why does it feel like a big mistake
    Please understand and hear what I'm saying
    The time is now and you don't have long
    She could be oceans away tomorrow
    So soon your chance will have come and gone
    So soon your chance will have come and gone
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Doesn't it seem such a chance to take
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Why does it feel like a big mistake
    The tight-wires strung and you're out in the middle
    All eyes upon you no net below
    Inches to go and you're almost home free
    Feel the wires swaying to and fro
    Feel the wires swaying to and fro
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Doesn't it seem such a chance to take
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Why does it feel like it would be a damn shame
    Would be forever if it meant a day
    How stoically I exclaim
    As she turns from me and walks away
    The light in her eyes explanation escapes you
    Longing to please and not feel alone
    And she doesn't know it but really she loves you
    Some day so soon you're gonna make it home
    Some day so soon you're gonna make it home
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Doesn't it seem such a chance to take
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Why does it feel like a big mistake
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Doesn't it seem such a chance to take
    Doesn't it seem most precarious
    Why does it feel like a big mistake

    This is the first time ive seen this video but ive been looking for it for awhile now because my brother told me he comes out in it and sure enough he does. Hes the guy with the Seattle Mariners hat that picks up the book towards the end of the video. He said he was drinking in Central Park and they came up to him and asked if he qanted to be in the video and he said fo sho and done deal. But its took me all these years to find it because he couldn't remember the name of the song and at first he didn't even remember the name of the band. Those were in his partying days so i think much was a blurr for him lol 🤤🥴😳🤮

    The lyrics to this song are brilliant. If ever you were a young man....or any man, for that matter, smitten for a girl you hope is "the One", this song really does capture all the anxiety you feel as you search for the right words to say.

      You could, the harmonica is literally and instrument anyone can pick up and play. It sounds and feels very intimidating but is actually very easy and made to perfectly for tge player to make it sound just he does

    • @owenmcgee8496
      @owenmcgee8496 6 лет назад +1

      maybe that's why Popper said in an interview that he thought the video silly and thought of the song as being really called "to and fro"; a song about chance. none of that fatalistic greek stuff

    Agreed this song is so underrated among BT fans. I love it. Also I never would've gotten into playing the harp had it not been for John Popper! I hope to get as good as him some day! Also having a pair of gnarly sideburns like that wouldn't be bad either.

    • @calvinbutler1919
      @calvinbutler1919 3 года назад

      Same here. The year was was 1995 and I was in the Belle Promenade Mall in New Orleans and I heard the faint harmony of the chorus in Hook and it stopped me in my tracks. I cocked my head to the side to better capture the music and I stood still, smiling and listening to the music. Afterwards I was tormented for some time because I didn't know who the artist was. When I found out it was on then! Never stopped listening to Blues Traveler since.
