I played this song on my way to prison to remind myself i could do this. when i got in there i met the only other deadhead on the compound and we kept each other going thru music. He was white and im black but prison racial tension was never between us. We were from different walks of life and from different parts of the country. The only thing we had in common was the Grateful Dead and that was all we needed. When one of us was feelin down we'd crank up the tunes and jam. Makes me tear up thinkin about it. Couldnt have made it w/o him and the Dead is what brought us together, forever grateful.✌🏾😎🍄
You just made my day, brother. Thank you
Sounds like you weren't from too different of walks 🤷🏼
Man prison how the heck you survived
Finding a deadhead in the joint is, a hard egg to order... I did 6 and all I could find was , Saturday night dead hour on. WPKN... But. it helped.
When you go to prison for?
I was in the crowed the night this was filmed . They finished a concert and asked who wanted to stay to shoot the video. This is something you only experience once in your life.
So many high and happy people in one place lol
Wow that’s wild! Literally ONCE in a lifetime. Can’t experience anything like that
That's amazing! I'm sure you felt super lucky to experience that. Jerry passed a few months after I was born, but I've always wished I could have seen them live. ☺️
Nice. They filmed a Snapple commercial at my school in 1994 using dozens of us students, but it never aired 😞
@@ibelieveicansoar I’m sure you can find that footage somewhere
RIP Bill Walton, 1952-2024
I was hearing colors, I was seeing sounds!
I made sure to listen to this when I heard big red went into the stratosphere. I’m not a Dead fan, but I love the NBA and bigs who can pass. And absolutely love people who make everyone around them have a better existence.
As soon as I turn 45 in a few months, gettin my colon cancer check. I saw a couple patients in early 40s diagnosed with colon cancer. Bill Walton was still too young
@@aamirfarooq1260 I'm about your age, get it done now. Especially if you have ANY family history
You don't need to be a Deadhead to love this song. Everybody eventually gets a touch of grey.
This is their only song I know, but I love it. I guess I should explore more of their catalog.
@@Rob_Kates Trucking , Sugar Magnolia, Casey Jones. All from Skeletons from the closet album back in late 60's early 70's. Im in my 40's and was listening to this in the 80's. Its great. That album for sure.
I love this song, it is Amazing.❤❤
@@Rob_KatesCheck out Fire On The Mountain, West LA Fadeaway, Althea, China Cat. These are a few songs I first heard that got me into em. Enjoy
@@fivespeed42 Thanks, I will listen to those.
I saw these cats live once upon a time. Lot's of people. No fights. Lots of smoke. They just played and played and played the way they played fueled by God knows what and everyone loved one another for a while.
Unlike concerts today
@@lastnamefirst4035 you’re not looking hard enough my dude. There are plenty of dope concerts going on my dude🤙🏻🤙🏻
@@slimdaniels3322 sure in the bay area but other states? Depends on size of concerts and if its indoor outdoor, "dude"
@@lastnamefirst4035 Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, pensylvania… do you want me to go on? Maybe if your diaper wasn’t full you would stop being such a whiney baby who can’t find music lol grow up😂😂😂
@@lastnamefirst4035 “”dude””
The song that kept me from committing suicide after I lost my leg in a horrible motorcycle accident. I played that song on my Sony CD player on repeat all day while learning to walk again. It was there that I was informed by a nurse that Jerry died.
He would have been proud to know that you kept on Truckin' :)
Ride On Brother!
Keep truckin' brother!
You’re very strong.
Praise the Lord and congrats
one of the most uplifting songs ever written
RIP Jerry, a light sorely missed
💯♥ 💯
Amen.. why am I just now discovering this on my own in 2024... no one has told me of what I've been missing! a wikipedia on North Face brought me here....
yes, a light for sure
well said
I'm a 53 year old black man from Oklahoma City Oklahoma and in 1985 my freshman year of highschool i had a science teacher named Mr Michael Mason that all nine months of the school year he proclaimed Friday dead day no work no test no talking we just listened to the dead so I'm a fan to this day when I'm hurting mentally or emotionally I just listen to some dead it takes the pain away thank you Mr Mason for teaching me dead music because you sure as hell didn't teach me any sience lol 2024
Awesome ... so long as your mental and emotional hurt wasn't caused from a lack of science 😀🤣 we will survive, we do get by... Cheers man
Cool teacher
I forgot to mention awesome fans he also taught us Jeff Beck oh yeah
Haha! I had a Physics teacher senior year (2002-2003), similar, Friday was a chill day. My buddy and I knew why... we showed up to class in the same state he did, and he knew.
U graduated in 89?? I think the 80s music was the best .brought on by the 70s music started heading dn hill in 90s. Now most stuff i can not even call music..class of 87. I had an awesome hs experience. Didnt learn much but i had a ton of fun.!!!!
I WILL, GET BY. I will survive!!
Hey asmr girl great to see you here
Words I've lived by!!!!
goddamn right honey. you and me, together
We will get by
@Dean Maker me too
That's pretty cool I'm a 55 year old African-American woman and I've been listening to the grateful Dead and I graduated in 1988🎉 and what a long strange trip it's been❤
Me, too! 53, graduated in 89. My mom said that this our family's anthem...take that as you will!
I disagree. It is illegal for you to listen to this type of music 😤
89 yeah freaks and geeks of all sorts 😮 damn I miss it
Ur a American . The most American band this ever was .great taste in music . ❤
Oh I'm a white South African African American .
My brother-in-law was a big Deadhead. We lost him all too young and suddenly. I was fighting back tears while driving soon after he passed when this song came on. Thank you for helping me get through it.
❤️ Lost my brother in a car wreck.
We will get by. We will survive.
@@scotttea5010 Yeah. It will be a year ago tomorrow that he OD'ed. He always had issues with it, but he did kick for a while when he moved to Oregon. I'm just glad that we were the ones who found him and not his nephews.
Jerry came through and did you a solid
My condolences. Grief and loss is just so hard to deal with man.. and no disrespect but I read your comment 3 times and read it like "my brother in law was a big dickhead" THREE TIMES .. lol! Hopefully that made you laugh .. I see now, clearly says Deadhead. I'm a bit under the weather fyi. Sorry man stay strong
Its cool how songs can get us through some hard times
Who's listening to this in 2024?
Has it really been 37yrs since they made this video? How time flys!!
We are here for only a few winters.
👍❤️
Here
I am long live Grateful Dead
Its a great song, just heard it yesterday
I'm 49 years old and this song and end of the line take me back to a great time in my life. Every one close to me was alive and well. Music may be the most powerful thing on earth at times.
Two of my favorites songs, and I am late in learning that.. Timeless
at all times.
I've been there. We are grown now. Beautiful lyrics I got you.
@@dustinz321 you're not late. You are appreciating music. Love you.
Thank You!!!!
The line, "I will get by, I will survive," became a mantra of resilience in the Dead community. When Jerry Garcia fell into a diabetic coma in July 1986, it looked like the group could be finished; when he returned to action in December, the group opened with "Touch Of Grey," reassuring fans that they would indeed get by.
I remember that. Sadly keyboardist Brent Mydland would pass away three years after this video and song came out.
Jennifer rabbit thank you for helping me get by love you Dad
@@muffs55mercury61 I saw the band with Brent at Autzen right before he passed. Still heavy to think about.
@@Marshall_Stacks He looked very happy and content when performing.
I was at these shows and was in for the filming. 30 years later, after three fights with cancer, a stroke, and all life can throw at me, all I have to say is..
I will get by, I will survive.
Thank you, Jerry.
Douglas Berry You show 'em brother!
Douglas Berry Hell yea brother
Grateful Dead. Music n Lyrics.
+Douglas Berry god bless you sir
+Douglas Berry You inspire brother!
My husband passed away last month. Listening to this song today is giving me a boost.
Sorry for your loss
Gather your strength wherever you find it, darlin'. You will get by, you will survive.
Sending mojo! ❤
Sorry for your loss

Losing my wife was the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with this is one of her favorite song. R.I P. Kimberly Ann O'Brien 1-26 -68 2-10-2021

My bday too.. may she rest in peace
L yb. Better
God Speed
I'm sorry brother. Please stay strong. She's still there watch hing over you. With no malice only love. 💯
Greetings from Argentina. Here we don't even have a clue of what was Grateful Dead. We live in a perpetual crisis. I just listened this song by chance and gave me hope. Even a smile. I began to understand why so many americans love them
Listen to 'Mars Hotel.'
Go buy "Working Man's Dead" or "Aoxomoxoa" immediately. Or just the live stuff on YT.
Need to send some tapes!!!
Argentinina might not know Greatful Dead but at least you all know Ramones😎
@@christopherfreeman1340 yep. Dee Dee even lived in Argentina. Here they filled stadiums
When I was a kid I always liked this song but thought it was silly. Reading the comments I had no idea how important this song was in helping people through life’s hardships.
Me favourite song by the Grateful Dead!
It's Amazing how things look different with some years in between !
I failed to appreciate it until I was well into adulthood and way more mature- they were great guys who were responsible artist
Music is therapy for a lot of us
Same
"A touch of grey kind of suits you anyway..." Something we all figure out, and accept, eventually.
At that stage...accepted I will survive.
Time is NOT on our side
The only band I knew that sell out a show by word of mouth.
@Noble Failures, the second part of your name is surprisingly legit.
This comment section is ridiculous. I come here to listen to music and end up reading the rantings of psychotic, mentally ill paranoid lunatics. Thankfully the pot smoking, acid dropping, tie-dye Deadhead hippies helped to reaffirm my faith in humanity. Thank Jerry not everyone has gone completely bat guano.
@Noble Failures STFU douche bag . Talking out of your ass.
Rush did as well
Ever heard of Aerosmith ?
LYRICS:
Must be getting early
Clocks are running late
Paint by number morning sky looks so phony
Dawn is breaking everywhere
Light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains, I don't care 'cause it's alright
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
I see you've got your fist out
Say your piece and get out
Yes, I get the gist of it, but it's alright
Sorry that you feel that way
The only thing there is to say
Every silver lining's got a touch of grey
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
It's a lesson to me
The Ables and the Bakers and the Cs
The ABCs we all must face
Try to keep a little grace
It's a lesson to me
The Deltas and the East and the Freeze
The ABCs we all think of
To try to win a little love
I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears, but it's alright
Cow is given kerosene
Kid can't read at seventeen
The words he knows are all obscene, but it's alright
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
The shoe is on the hand it fits
There's really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit 'cause it's alright
Oh, well, a touch of grey, kind of suits you anyway
That's was all I had to say, but it's alright
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
Piece
✌
Doo doo doo doo doo
well, I learned a new word- arrears thanks for posting lyrics, I knew most of them but obviously not all
Until I just read the lyrics to touch of grey I just didn't know how amazing they were as song writers I fucking love this n I blow all my money on dead memorabilia
Not just some silly pop song that made the charts. No, a great, important song with a message that we all need. Thank you forever, Dead!
And in this world which seems like it's heading to the rock bottom this song is there to tell us it's not permanent and WE WILL SURVIVE!!
It became so popular BECAUSE we all needed it!
@@AJ_Deadshow For sure. At the time I had just broken up with a girlfriend and was moping so bad but the song came out two months later and really did a great job of comfort. Today I wonder why I lost so much sleep over her !!
It's even worse than it . appears. BUT IT'S ALRIGHT
Truer words have never been spoken... I will get by... Keep on keeping on man
Just heard the heartbreaking news that NBA legend Bill Walton has died. I thought of this video almost immediately, as Walton gifted Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart the Celtics jacket that he wears in this video, from 1987. Walton was immensely proud of his two seasons as a Celtic, and I'm sure he'll be cheering them from Heaven as the Celtics go after Banner 18.
RIP, Bill Walton☘
Fitting they play in Indiana, where his coach was from.
Bill & Jerry are together up there right now, telling stories to each other
R.I.P. to em both
Sitting with my mother as she's dying, playing the best song ever written. I'm falling to pieces, but I'm forever grateful for the best mother ever....and the Dead❤
God bless brother.😢❤
Hit up the 5-8-77 show man. It’s therapeutic.
So sorry. 😢
❤🙏✈️🚀🛸
Hey if you need someone to talk to Liam let one of us know. I know how that is brother it’s harder than living itself
I'm so glad this song has helped so many people get through so many different hardships in life, as it did for me.
Music is powerful and can also move mountains as well.
The Coronavirus Pandemic brought me here.

Seventy years old and I have survived; what a great song. When I started on RUclips this is the song I've chosen to get my username from.
Love and peace to all!
I'm 76 and still enjoying being here. Imagine when Elton John made it sound terrible to be "60 years of age, when the ragged dog they gave me has been ten years in the grave..."
I am in the Tampa Bay area, and we are blessed to have a truly GREAT tribute band, called "Uncle John's Band" here, so we get to hear totally killer versions of GD songs.
I've survived 75 years . . . an' I still love music like this more than anything other than family and friends . . . an' LIFE itself, of course. ;o)

Hang in there!
Smoking some good weed and listening to Grateful Dead is amazing.

Sorry for your loss, Holly.
I know that sadness. I lost my little 3 years old brother when I was 10. God comfort your soul. Keep the faith,we will see them again.
Oh man, that’s too young. What happened?
Sorry for your loss my friend
The puppeteers really did a great job with the band's stage personalities, from Bobby's head bob to Brent's herky-jerk movements, they really got it right
What puppeteers? Lol
@@brianolson6366
WWE isn't 99.9% choreographed and scripted in your world, either?
Love it, when the dog, snags, the bone, and runs off with it in his mouth. Have to laugh, every time, I see it..lol..You are right, about the Puppeteers. What a unique video idea..
What puppeteers, they used Necromancers
they still use the marionetts. while Touring.
I'm a single mom in recovery and every morning I play this song while I'm getting us ready for another day.... gets me pumped up and in the right head space!!!
Single moms are doing the lords work. I’m a stay at home dad and I couldn’t imagine having to do it all my myself. Single moms are braver than the troops.
If you are not widowed, you are divorced. If you are divorced it is probably because you got bored and are alienating the father.
That's great to hear. I'm proud of you for taking the responsible road and thinking of your kids first. I'm 51 and made the mistake of thinking I could keep living in denial. While my life flew behind me, I missed out on parts of my kids' early years, and I regret it tremendously. We're close now, but I'll never get those days back. Keep it together. It's worth it. Do whatever it takes. Listening to this every morning is a great start to a sober day.
I hope you are still doing well with your recovery. I'd like to hear more about your story. I am not a professional minster, but have a few people I try to encourage and help with their battles.
i wanna play this song while playing an random halloween indie game on steam
I’m 32 and been hearing this song my whole life but just now really listened to the lyrics and it made me cry. Life hurts bad sometimes but it’s not the end.
💙🖤
🤗🤗
True, gotta get your ass kicked once in awhile to really appreciate things. Then you'll look back and just laugh at what you thought were tough times
Sorry that you feel that way 😢 the only thing there is to say every silver linings got a touch of grey.
I love ❤ The Greatful Dead and I am a white supremisist gang member, this goes to my bones. I think Jerry Garcia was and is Awesome, R.I.P but your inspiration helps me stay alive to this day, especially this song. Rock on!!!!❤😊
I swear my dad made 2000 accounts and commented all of these

My earliest memories are watching MTV in the late '80s/early '90s, and three music videos stand out: "Burning Down the House" by the Talking Heads, "Take On Me" by A-Ha, and "Touch Of Grey" by the Grateful Dead. This song and video holds a very special place in my heart.
Same for me! Plus Dire Straits “I want my MTV”.

That's great man! I love how new generations enjoy music from the past
And when they are musicians in their own right, they will always remember it.
That's awesome. Always best to raise them on good music.
Saw them in 1985.....still got the Tshirt "20 grateful years".
Yes! Ventura!
Was in a residential treatment center recently. They had karaoke on Saturday nights. Never could get drunk enough to do that on the outside. Did this song. Everyone dug it, had em join in, even the young ones. Thanks Jerry and company. We will get by
As a recovering addict, this song always meant a lot to me. I would sing it when i was getting high and knew one day I’d survive it. That day was 4 months ago
Hang tough, you can do it.
Thank you!
Hang in there
Thank you! Each day is its own blessing
Don't use and go to meetings. It is about getting passed that. It was for me. I got sober 20 months after I heard the premiere in Landover MD 1982. Just whistle through your teeth and spit.
I was there for the filming as well. Unforgettable experience!
No matter what comes your way, you WILL get through it, I will get by, just keep reminding yourself, this to shall pass. Still jammin at 68 !!!

By far one of the greatest songs ever written. Everything about it is great, and its message is fantastic.
This is one of my favorite dead songs even though in terms of their catalog is more simple structured. The song just helped me a lot during my time getting off heroin, being in the judicial system, tossed around rehab to rehab by court. 8+ years off Heroin and even though life can still be extremely hard and a lot of days I just wanna never leave my home I somehow come back to this song. WE WILL SURVIVE!
Ladies and Gentlemen, who have come to watch this video given the current state of the world, in 2020. We will get by. We will survive. Godspeed to you all, and may sweet, baby Jesus smile upon you.
Right on!
I wanted to share it as a message of hope (we will survive) at Facebook; but thought it might upset my cousin whose husband died due to COVID-19 ~ do not think she is grateful that he is dead ~ being unable to say goodbye in person (she too has the disease and he was on a ventilator) nor goodbye to his body ~ being quarantined and isolated
@@alyceclover Couldn't agree more with this, and am so sorry about your loss. Some of us won't get by or survive. But hopefully we all can remain grateful, even the dead, for the life we were given on earth. Keep your head up, no matter how hard it gets. I don't know you, but I love you. Peace to you and your loved ones. Stay positive, always!

Amen, Brother!
I just had to come here this song again today as I wore my Jerry Garcia t-shirt live from the Fontanne theater. There are certain songs that touch your soul that never get old and always give you chills every time you listen to them! This is one of those inspirational Timeless songs and God bless everybody here that this has helped! Rest in peace Jerry!
I love that they let the strings visible.
This song has really helped me in rough times. ❤
Me too 😉
Funny how this was the only song from the dead that ever charted so technically the dead were one hit wonders yet one of the greatest bands in music history.
Kevin Webster This blows me away. I never thought about it that way, since the Dead were so well known for their live performances.
Woe, you just blew my mind!
R.I.P.
Jerry Garcia
They didn't need billboard hits or record sales to be great..... One of the best touring bands ever
HokieDadave
So I've heard. I never got a chance to see them. I've heard they were awesome. I love the ice cream.
Besides they had Casey Jones another hit
May 9, 1987. 31 years ago today!
We will survive
alohakakou2u first song I heard after I got the news that my Grandma (Marion Charlotte) died. Love and miss her.
i was 26,damn i want my youth back
Fun fact the skeletons were so accurate Jerry's was missing a finger.
And dosed up with Persian
Yeah, it is in his bio book, hos older brother accidentally miscalculated chopping wood && hit Jerry's finger - they were young & it was before his dad drown. Get his bio, tells all about it.
Yeah & In the Video Micky is Briefly Missing a LEG! DAMN DOG!
Right
Why does one have tits?
One of the Best songs of grateful dead since 1987
This song introduced me to Grateful Dead.
MrCzechers same here!
Me too, in 1987. Then I didn't think of them much again until 2001 when I heard Sugar Magnolia for the first time in a bar. Then I became a total Deadhead.
First Dead song I ever heard
Me too!
same @MrCzechers
My dad died today.
This morning he was singing this song to me. My cousins' family band across the country put together a cover of this song for him by the afternoon.
That was the last thing he heard before finishing (at least here) his long, strange trip.
I'm sorry man stay strong
Miles, I don't know you, but your story really touches me. (Sorry for my English, I'm a French Canadian) Best regards to your father, you and your family. The songs from "The Grateful Dead" are for me to fill the air ... Good luck!

Condolences on your loss, Sir, but what a cool memory for you to be able to hold onto to ... get by. Best Wishes!

A periodic tune that you heard a thousand times. And still somehow finds itself right there when you need it.
This is an anthem
No matter how tough things can get... keep on keeping on.
And everything will be alright
May not be alright per se,...but with ought adventure, triumph and failure,...what is life?
Well said, and totally agreed. It’s a song that has somehow been with me at a few very important moments, or just some very memorable moments … but it’s more than just a song. It’s a little bit magical I think. It has some real power to it.
Lol .. like just now when i looked it up :D .. followed by some Billy Strings
I have been just getting over a major heart attack and this song makes me feel i will get by , i will survive , i love the dead , thanks aunty Rita ❤
I am 41, saw this video first time when I was 14 or so. Now I am suffering badly badly from depression with huge suicidal thoughts for 11 years now. This song came to my mind a year ago and I play it every day for myself, hoping I will get by and will survive.
Hey @snakeroll I hope you're doing ok. I'm 47 and depression runs in my family. Lost a brother to suicide, and 6 of 8 of my immediate family have attempted. I however have been one of the two exceptions. I think about this a lot. Why am I the way I am? I've always felt about the way I feel. Nothing makes me feel better, nothing makes me feel worse. And so I've concluded that there must those out there who naturally feel "bad". Just the way I naturally feel generally ok (not amazing, but ok). And they must just tend to hover there the way I tend to just hover here. It sounds like this person is you. So, in a way, I've been thinking about you off and on for at least 30 years. I've worried about you and I've hoped for you. And after 30 years of thinking I still don't really know what to say to you. Because what do I know about it? Nothing really. That's all I know, is that I know nothing about it. I'm a falconer. If you are drawn to outdoors, wildlife, or the natural cycle I suggest you look into it. There will be local groups or clubs maybe. Try looking them up on the internet and ask someone to take you out flying with their birds and see what you think of it. Hawks and falcons do not have easy lives. Nor do the prey that they hunt. If they succeed on a hunt, something dies. If they fail in hunting, they die. And that is the natural world that we are so detached from. Death is such a huge part of life, but we have been removed from that. Maybe reconnecting with nature and the natural life cycle would be helpful. Last thing I will say is I've seen a lot of things die. Predator and prey in the natural world and I will tell you this. None of them go quietly into that dark night. Even in scenarios where any right minded person would just let it end. They fight for every breath in every situation until the very end. And from that I've learned the value of this life. It is simply in life itself. It isn't complicated. Life is worth living, it is reason enough. You don't need to be safe, or happy, or comfortable, or anything. You just need to breath each breath and live it. Mice do it. Rabbits do it. Falcons do it. We can do it too. To the last breath.

This is the most uplifting song of this century.
Tune holds up; vid's a CLASSIC! Very interesting to read through the comments and hear all the personal meaning people have attached to the song. It really speaks to the power of Hunter's lyricism.

I had a friend who was troubled. I showed him this song. He said it was 'actually kinda nice'
Years later, he's been uh, missing from Earth lately. Sucks that I couldn't do more to help him. But this song will always remind me of him, of us, of the struggle, and the multiple linings life has to all of its elements. Rest well 'Rinbro', if you see Jerry somewhere down there, give him a holler.
Down there! Lol. Yikes!🤣
wtf i'm old now
EVERYTIME I CLOSE MY EYES
I WAKE UP FEELING SO HORNY
That's like bro or broette
*that's life bro or broette
Me too, but we get by....
😅😅😅 me too. When did this happen?
Everything is gonna be ok. Death is nothing to worry about, enjoy life, stop worrying.
Thanks, but my knee arthritis is worrying me. Pain sucks. You'll see when you get older.
This band changed my entire life.
I wanted to make a JoJo reference but now I'm just sad from all these comments
Oh Jerry Garcia, the world still needs you.
Jerry Garcia's father and my grandmother were from the same village in Spain! I feel blessedly connected!
For sure
I love how Jerry's skeleton is missing fingers, the accuracy is a nice touch 😅
Jerry Garcia looks like a hippie Santa Claus.
I think rather like Karl Marx
to each his own
Jerry Garcia was a hippie Santa Claus
asyouratty13 yeah was
Doug Shoemaker your point????
I'm 57 years old and I've just recently discovered the Grateful Dead, Upon further research of the band members and their style of music, I must say that each band member brings their own bag of musical expertise. Long Live the DEAD....... RIP Gerry.
Better late than never
Welcome to the deadhead club leonhardison3465 🫠🫠
Now try the moody blues
Love you Elyria mo thugs
Think Sk8s
Never really cared for Deadheads. But I had a friend who was a huge one. I found out he was murdered today, two days ago, and came to hear his music. This is what he left me. I'm breaking down in tears.
Love you :(
Sorry my guy only good people get murdered it seems to me as ive only known one person to be murdered he was a dead head also in his own way but truly a kind good man at heart hang in there
Batman will avenge ur fallen brother dont worry
Hope you feel better
Sorry for the loss 🇮🇪😉🎆🎇✨🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Best roadie work ever, chasing the dog down with Mickey's leg then re attaching it
@2:28. That catch of a rose was a masterpiece in time.
No cheese on this sandwich of sound. Much love to Bob Weir.
And feed the effing dog!
I've got tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat...
After Ripple, my second all time favorite song by the Dead....
Listen to "Uncle John's Band" and "Terrapin" a few times.
2024 microbial friends
This song is such an emotional relief, I cry everytime I listen to it. Love you grateful dead
When life sucks just turn on some grateful dead and you'll feel better soon
@@kip4966 yes it is
@@kip4966 wow that's impressive and maybe cause the dead is so mellow
Well said...thank you x
Now more then ever ☠️
Especially now.
My uncle Bobby turned me on to the Grateful Dead at an early age back in the 80's. This was always one of his favorite songs. We lost him last September to COVID. I play this song today in remembrance of him. Most of my music tastes today reflect what he introduced to me when I was young. I love you uncle Bobby, I miss you, and this will forever be our song.
While a teen, I suffered from an anxiety disorder. When this song came out, I truly appreciated its message.
Any Gen X out there?!
Right here!
Yes and love this tune
Hi!
Hell yeah!
I'm a proud gen xer ☺️
I'd be lying if I said my life was perfect.i lost my fiancé of 4 and a half years almost a year ago to covid.my life has fallen apart moving to a new city, new job that doesn't pay well.stress of starting a new life and one day this song popped in my head and suddenly life doesn't seem that bad
My dad just passed. And this song reminds me of better days. And that I will survive.
I was 13yrs old when Mom ✝🛐 bought me the 45 record and Now I'm 69yrs old with a touch of grey hair.

Hey Chuyhighman6927.....well versed....we all have silver linings......🌻🌻🌻🌻🦋🦋🦋🦋I just turned 66
Never stop dancing🎼🎼🎼🌞🌞🌞🌞 from Sunshine 🌞🌻♾️
Their music helped me in a bad trip on lsd
It's helping right now for me 😀
87 acid was probably full of speed and everything else. Has not been any Owsley acid since 70 though BOEL made sunshine through the mid 70s. Since then there has not been any pure 25.
30 YEARS AGO I HEARD "TOUCH OF GRAY",FUNNY THEN. BUT NOW IT SUITS ME. FIVE MONTHS I HIT 64. I WILL SURIVE
Coming up on the big 60 and I still love this now more than when it came out. Guess it speaks to me more now than then. I'm barely surviving.
Donld Karl 🍻⚽😀
Loud and clear sir....

Jerry Moore Boys of Summer, Don Henley!
I know. Great song.
Don't look back. You can never look back.
bad drugs , again!
Jerry Moore thought I knew what love was... what did I know...
A 🌹 for my father. I love you, I miss you. 💋 I will see you in the light. Em. Oh, and hello Jim Nasium.
When I have problems, I remember this song, and I stand up again ... Thank you GD !!! salutes from Mexico!!!
This is an amazing piece of work. No computer graphics or AI. Just a world of coolness.
One of the best videos of all time. Had this on my MySpace, back when there was such a thing. Facebook came around the corner yelling “hold my beer”
I stumbled across this via a comedy podcast I was listening to. I can’t believe it’s taken me 39 years to actually listen to The Grateful Dead. I loved this song and I’ll be listening to them at work today
Enjoyyy
I find this song especially inspiring on March 17, 2020. We have a little thing called the Coronavirus closing in on us.
Me too
@@doghouse6 same here
Thinkin' alike
"Draw the curtains I don't care!"
Nothing 'closing in' but fear and hype - "We will get by!"
@@markwagner6910 - 'Whistle through your teeth and spit"
Just recently discovered this song and decided to go through more of their work. Safe to say I have fallen in love with this band.
Do you like garlic and onion?
Welcome on the bus. I have been on for over 50 yrs
The Grateful Dead died when Jerry died.
Im sure someone is going to dispute this, but i absolutely agree. Jerry encapsulates the grateful dead. No jerry, no dead.
This song played in the perfect time in my life. I said peace and I got out. I did get by. I did survive.
Good for you Carol!
@@tomhoffmann6442 I know that why I believe in music. It’s magic. And so am i
HEARD It when i was 12
Beautiful
