I wish the camera had stayed on Shannon throughout. His effortless delivery, amazing voice, mannerisms, ad-libs, smiles, and his sense of humor (1st set of “Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas!”) are almost too much for my heart to bear. Thank you for sharing this gem.
Neither did the studio exec's. Which is how we ended with the version that's all happy and upbeat. The suits said it was too depressing. Personally, I think it fits the tone of the song much better and is the better of the two.
@@twohands2152 exactly, this version is my favorite, but I also like how it leads into the popular orn after. There was a Saturday Night Live performance where they played the song like that and it's my favorite thing they've ever done
This is one of the best performances I've ever heard from Shannon. He sounds really healthy and strong here. Prime Blind Melon.
What a voice he had. Beautiful man.
He looks so happy....rest in peace, Shannon & know that all the misplaced bee girls & boys love you for this song!
I’m glad there are so many demo versions of this song to enjoy.
I saw Blind Melon in concert back in 1994. It was awesome!
I saw them in 94 also. It was an awesome show.
One of the most unique & beautiful voices in the history of RN'R. Shannon was gone WAY too soon 😢.
Remenber me Jannis, nice to hear core Shanoon voice
Shannon was such an amazing and beautiful soul💘
