Best of CountingCrows: goo.gl/zXQ8H3 Subscribe here: goo.gl/txTe4i Music video by Counting Crows performing Daylight Fading. (C) 1996 Geffen Records Inc.
When I was 16 years old this was the only cassette tape that I had for an entire summer. I was working at a waterpark as a ride operator at the time in Columbus, Ohio. Every time I hear this record reminds me of my first job working long 12 hour days at a theme park in the blazing hot sun. I listened to this on a walkman when smoking cigarettes on my break.
Well, this is what I’ll be playing on repeat tonight as I move out of my apartment. I had a good run. Haven’t stood on on square one in 4 years… it’s time.
Omg I remember this on VH1 when I was in grade school!! My parents had me very young & they are both established musicians. My father is the original drummer for Testament & was friends with Kurt Cobain & Courtney love before their fame & after. My step mother was their real actual nanny in fact. Point is I grew up on all the best music from the 90s and other genrrs as well. We always owned a baby grand piano and a drum set. I played guitar! Counting crows ,Aimee Man and Fiona Apple were my biggest influences. I'm 31 now and am so grateful my parents exposed me to art like this since birth!
The more times I hear this, the more I love it. This band had such a big effect on me in the 1990s. The band of the decade. Made me broaden my musical tastes and will forever be one of my absolute favourite artists. I know no better lyricist and the music is sublime.
The counting crows did the same for me. I was a teenager in the 90s and loved them. Then I learned about their influences and it really broadened my musical tastes. I get to see them this summer for the first time live this year at the age of 40. Can’t wait!
That's a great observation. I think this was one of those bands. The 90s were a pretty good direction and you sort of chose a side. The 80s and 90s were pretty great.
This song makes me think of people who constantly give up when things start to get just a little bad and miss out on all the good times and so just constantly live a life of saying goodbye to everything good that they have. And so in the end spend their lives doing nothing.
Is it also possible that those same people leave before things become even worse. I've spent a lfetime trying to do the right thing by sticking around with little to show for it except heartache.
Don't take your life for granted: especially your younger days. Things can change for the worse. And, don't take your partner, spouse, girlfriend or boyfriend for granted. There is no guarantee that they will be with you for the rest of your life. That's the song's message.
Just Some Guy exactly. I bought this CD when it first came out, me and my wife had a great weekend at the ocean listening to this and drinking and partying, just the two of us. 20 years later she left me for someone else. Nothings guaranteed
Waiting for the moon to come and light me up inside And I am waiting for the telephone to tell me I'm alive Well I heard you let somebody get their fingers into you It's getting cold in California I guess I'll be leaving soon Daylight fading Come and waste another year All the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn When we see the early signs that daylight's fading We leave just before it's gone She said "Everybody loves you, " She says, "Everybody cares" But all the things I keep inside myself They vanish in the air If you tell me that you'll wait for me I'll say I won't be here I want to say goodbye to you Goodbye to all my friends Goodbye to everyone I know Daylight fading Come and waste another year All the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn When we see the early signs that daylight's fading We leave just before it's gone
I forgot how good of an album this was. For me it ranks up there with matchbox 20: for you or someone like you: Jars of Clay first album, Rich Mullins: the world as best as I have remembered it vol 1 and 2: these three albums, although very different especially with Rich Mullins in the mix, was to me at least, the first albums in which I hear in which the singers really shared what was going on inside their hearts and in a way that everyone can relate to the lyrics. I love this song! I did often wonder if rich Mullins was to live longer, how well he would have been sharing the stage with counting crows, pink, matchbox 20 and counting crows. For those who don’t know him he was a gospel / folk singer who was someone who shared his emotions deeply in his lyrics similar to the bands I mentioned with him.
Wow, I thought this song would get at least 10 millions views after being up for 12 years. I've been hearing this on rotation in supermarket stores and on many FM radio stations too lately.
it was 1997 ..i'd been suddenly touched with this song that put me thru the life of lil' girl, Connie Aritonang (half indonesia-germany) suffered from leukemia which laid down and died november 22, 1997 in Freiburg
Music makes you feel good, it can take you back in time, times that were good, sad, all of the above. Makes you yearn to experience the past....but even though you can't go back, you can relive the times within your mind.
Truly one of the greatest records I have ever had the privilege to listen to. Every single track is pure, heart-filled, emotional gold. They lost their way IMHO after 'Hard Candy' but I get wanting a Shrek-sized paycheck. I just hope they are all safe, well, and happy. We just need to accept we likely never going to see another heartfelt, personal album like this one from these guys again, ever, so enjoy what we got
Yeah, Saturday Nights and Underwater Sunshine were disappointing, but Somewhere Under Wonderland had some good songs and the new EP Butter Miracle is great, their best work since the 90's.
This video really brings the surrealism of this song to light. This album has some of the best music ever recorded and has had a profound effect on my life, especially in the late 90s right after it was released. I was in the Navy at the time and was just starting to experience the ups and downs of the real world.
great track off of one of the best albums ever recorded. i have seen the Crows over a dozen times and can not wait til they come out with new material in the next few years and see them tour again!
Because the majority of youtube users listen to shit like Drake or Some other BS. This right here is real music and im glad to see others noticing, through a lot of these awesome comments, that people see the dwindling effects of what they call music nowadays and seeing them still coming back to listen to songs like these!
no kidding, as soon as I heard this on his channel I was instantly transported back to the 90's in my mind. I don't think I have heard this song since the 90's.
Will forever remind me of lockdown 2020 and making the best friend in a like minded male a girl could ever wish for. Friends for life! here's to us Kid, to cigarettes, alcohol, laughs and affectionate abuse 😆 Much luv Al, Betty ✌
In my panic to get the pigeon done I messed up, maybe one day I'll get something right 🤞 Tele not strat but I remembered the story, every word. Always listened to you, invested, always cared, that was my downfall in the end because I just wanted to protect you from my stuff 'because' I knew how much your work and your own life mattered and needed your full attention, 'because' I gave a shit. Still do. I broke my own heart by doing this then it was curtains for us. If I could go back and do it all again I'd not change a thing. I promised you I'd never stand in your way and that I'd not message you my shit because your job comes first. I also promised you it would all be ok once I got you in person that I'd rather tell you everything then than over a message and stress you out. At least I could have held you through the upset. You moved on way before I knew and maybe if I wasn't as selfless and in love I'd have had the happy ending I thought we were gonna have. I wanted to get on with my solicitor calls, emails, therapy over break in, surgery, in a way that didn't affect you so sadly I wasn't about as much and I was in such a bad way fighting the system I needed the sleep to face the next day and to get to you faster. Everything we spoke about, all our desires, stripped away. Still breaks me to this day because I'm so misunderstood. I'm such a heart sore V that I couldn't even face opening messenger. I couldn't stand it, the thought of chatting as just a friend whilst you had another me in the V chair. It broke me when I found out your news on Saturday just gone because I used to be yours and you mine and I hate not being needed and there for you but I understand and respect you have a life without me now. My heart breaks for you and I care so much. All I keep thinking is... I hope he is ok, and I want him ok. I still say night to you each night. I'll always listen to this song and 🌠 of you. I hope in some small way you remember me too. Miss you and our music, comedy. I'm always wishing the best for you ❤ "She said everybody loves you she said everybody cares" My absolute fav CC friend in the whole wide world. Be kind to yourself M, love E x
@GAdawgsfan93 I totally agree... that vid would ruin somebodies life if they were on acid lamo! BUT check out "no rain" by blind melon. It's right up there with it. ull prob b glad i reminded u of that song too. i heard it for the first time in like 5 years earlier today and was SO pleased
Counting crows easy my favorite band, love Pink floyd and Oasis too. there are 3 people with seriosly no taste, They will never escape, just keep moving down the coast, maybe end up in peru or somewhere chewing coca leaves wonderin what went wrong. The crows can show you the way.

Thats such a cool story
Fuck yeah keep that beautiful memory
Wyandot Lake?
I hereby project this message to infinity, as a witness!
Cedar Point?
Matt Malley is the most underrated bassist in the history of music. Listen to the entire album and focus on the bass, it's mindblowingly good.
I’ve always felt like the only person on Earth who deeply appreciates the haunting baseline in “Children in Bloom”
In ‘O2 I met Matt. What a fucking beautiful human being, so kind and humble. Wherever he is these days I hope he’s doing well
I can't tell you how good they were they were live.
No doubt
"All the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear..."
Great lyrics,great harmonies, great music!
One of the best ever in my opinion.
how many years has this been out?..im still moved by adam and his ability to bring me so high...and so very low...a lifelong love affair with his art
1996
This poor man suffers a lot. He has a mental illness that affects his personality... Still he is a complete genius
@@AutumnDutch Released in May 1997.
@John6yt The album came out in '96 but the song did not release to the charts until May 1997. Up to that point, very few had heard the song.
I agree Adam is amazing and beautifully put.
Ahh 90's music; when life was easy, pure, and had the best taste in everything. 1990's was the last best generation.
Honest to God... Shit, today just sux in like every category ! Plus Adam Duritz , needs his dreads back !
Amen brother
Damn right. After 2000's the majority of music turned to shit..
We would go to concerts and get self made DVDs for free.
MY FAVOURITE OFF THIS ALBUM! Man I haven't listened to this in SO long.. guess I'm having 90s night when I get home
Well, this is what I’ll be playing on repeat tonight as I move out of my apartment. I had a good run. Haven’t stood on on square one in 4 years… it’s time.
This is my favorite song by the Counting Crows.
I still sing this one everyday out loud on my gardening round. God bless the crows and goodnight Elizabeth no more horse dreams

God i wanna know why are they not so famous !!! they deserve to be on the level of the other big bands!!
They are the band of the 90s.

been forever since I read an upright thought like that
I took this song as I had to get out of the town I was in at the time. I joined the Army and made a reasonable life for myself.
I love this song. And my God this video is NINETIES
I saw them on SNL long ago and have been hooked ever since.

I stopped listening after August and everything after. It was a perfect album so i dunno. I guess I started listening to other music.
@@dprice81 I like that album too, but as this track shows, you're missing out. It's exceptional.
Cool, I can see what you're saying.
@@paulsanders860 theres a few good songs past that album. I listened to the other album. Hard to beat August and Everything After
"All the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear" -This will really happen if you let it.
I always liked this song.This is an underated album.I never saw this video.I just learned to play this on guitar .
Hidden treasure song here, love these guys! Missed this one💙💜
Reminds me of my college daze. Man life was awesome when you could actually waste a whole year and not be bothered at all by it.
Man their music just makes u wanna roll all the windows down and just cruise. Awesome band!!
Waiting for the moon to come and light me up inside
And I am waiting for the telephone to tell me I'm alive
Well I heard you let somebody get their fingers into you
It's getting cold in California
I guess I'll be leaving soon
Daylight fading
Come and waste another year
All the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
When we see the early signs that daylight's fading
We leave just before it's gone
She said "Everybody loves you, "
She says, "Everybody cares"
But all the things I keep inside myself
They vanish in the air
If you tell me that you'll wait for me
I'll say I won't be here
I want to say goodbye to you
Goodbye to all my friends
Goodbye to everyone I know
Daylight fading
Come and waste another year
All the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
When we see the early signs that daylight's fading
We leave just before it's gone
I listen to this every time DST hits because all that talk about it getting darker earlier reminds me of the lyrics

I can never stop jamming to this great music!! one of my favorite Bands of all time!!
They don't make music like this anymore.
My favorite album of theirs!

@@Alex_Off-Beat Thanks man. I will check it out!
Right, but they are still for sure worthy of the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame in my opinion!
Listening to Daylight Fading during Daylight Savings Time.
This shall be forever known as the soundtrack to the kitchen remodel of 1998!
Boy did I know that was a Tele in the solo.
Played quintessentially perfectly.
This video really brings the surrealism of this song to light. This album has some of the best music ever recorded and has had a profound effect on my life, especially in the late 90s right after it was released. I was in the Navy at the time and was just starting to experience the ups and downs of the real world.
Listening to this song because yesterday was the first day of fall.
Serious love for this song here!!!! Listen to those lyrics! Tattoo them onto your hearts. I did...
without a doubt, the song that defines the 2000s, just like Mr. Jones defines the 90s. " Come and waste another year.....
Huge. Beautiful. Magnificent, what a song.
This album dominated my stereo in 1998!
An incredible remedy for anyone at any time🙏
All the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear. Just great writing, Great song album.
Absolutely amazingly beautiful in every aspect I can imagine.
Well done guys, seriously.
"...daylight fading...come and waste another year..."
Sums up my 2019...Awesome song and album!!!!
great track off of one of the best albums ever recorded. i have seen the Crows over a dozen times and can not wait til they come out with new material in the next few years and see them tour again!
all the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear!
Slides right in there in between soul asylum and tom petty that Hammond B3 has always been the instrument that adds that smoothness a song needs
Ironically feels the same waiting for daylight ...dawn.
crows are all great,sound track of live life and early 20s,love ya
Maximum studio-power sound compression here. Vocals are king. Carry on.
Triste ver que musicas como essa nao sao valorizadas
Sounds like R.E.M. Great track.
R.E.M. sucks!
Its sad that this has not got more views
Because the majority of youtube users listen to shit like Drake or Some other BS. This right here is real music and im glad to see others noticing, through a lot of these awesome comments, that people see the dwindling effects of what they call music nowadays and seeing them still coming back to listen to songs like these!
rivercats58 well said
Cant get anymore perfect
This song is so incredible!! Love this band!
Happy Daylight Savings Time everyone!
A very cool, smooth sound live and in studio (no effects)
How real music should be, so much over produced shit these days.
Just a $5000 guitar ampfiier.
@@Timbretwo And a $5,000 guitar with perfect action and intonation.
DEC 30 2021
Been jonesing to hear this song for the last couple days.
I just found out today the correct lyrics... for YEARS i thought it was
"Daylight Savings, and we'll waste another year "
😁😁
Best song ever!!!! I wish I wrote it
amazing song,first time ive heard it in years,counting crows are still a great band.
listening to cc always bright up my day. they're the best!
great song ...great time...
Great song bring me back to 96.
OMG! Those headphones the blond has are the COOLEST THING EVER!!! I NEED SOME LIKE NOW!! lol great song :)
damn this is one of the trippiest videos ive seen
For anyone who loves this style, check out Blue Rodeo. "til i am myself again" is a good comparison
Thanks Rick Beato for introducing Counting Crows in his one of the live stream 🤘
no kidding, as soon as I heard this on his channel I was instantly transported back to the 90's in my mind. I don't think I have heard this song since the 90's.
Perfect Song!"*
Man, 14 years ago this came out...seems like yesterday
21 now!
26 years ago. Wow Time has flown and music has changed

Waiting. Never again.

Counting crows easy my favorite band, love Pink floyd and Oasis too. there are 3 people with seriosly no taste, They will never escape, just keep moving down the coast, maybe end up in peru or somewhere chewing coca leaves wonderin what went wrong. The crows can show you the way.
