Just bought a brand new Cadillac at 58, my dream car... This song gets played the most for sure cruising down the road!! Loved it then, love it even more now!! 😁
If I had to pick a song that encompassed my feelings and soul searching during my college years, it’s this one. This song still kills it decades later. RIP Josh.
It's amazing how these kids came up with an amazing combination of major and minor pentatonics. The groovey riffs and of course the tapping. Masterpiece.
lux lotus. You seem like you're a person who seeks quality in music. I want to give you an album to checkout & tell me how you like it after you listen to it. The name of the album is (Ocean Beach) by the group (Red House Painters) Enjoy & don't forget to tell me your opinion.
You have good taste in music my friend 👍 I am soon to turn 60 and I remember when this song hit the airwaves !! Loved it then and still Loving it now!!! On a sad note though , the lead singer Josh passed away from cancer at age 32 in 2001 or 02 . I only found this out about 5 months ago when I was reading a comment from one of his band mates, made me sad 😢 He told Josh that they all really miss him and he still thinks of him often ❤
This song was playing on the radio Saturday morning June 1, 1991; as I was leaving my high school's project graduation lock-in. I just sat in my car and let the song play as about 300 other senior/graduates tore out of the school's parking lot for the last time. So long ago, yet feels like yesterday. Man I wish I could relive that weekend!
How's that down the South Padre Island we were a freshman in college and now we're cranking and Center ass off as a bed I forgot it and just won the songs that maybe go get a blue ribbon for real Michael Tom T-Rex
Singer Josh Clayton-Felt died on January 19, 2000 at 32 of testicular cancer. Guitarist Michael Ward went on to play with John Hiatt and eventually became a member of The Wallflowers. After The Wallflowers split, Ward spent many years as a member of Ben Harper's band, The Innocent Criminals. He is also a sought-after session guitarist in LA, and the author of the children's books 'Mike and the Bike' and 'Mike and the Bike Meet Lucille The Wheel.' Chad Fischer went on to form the band Lazlo Bane, most known for original opening credits of the TV show Scrubs. He also performed music in the Garden State movie soundtrack. Christopher MacDonald, who played bass with the band on tour, but did not play on any School of Fish recordings, records synthesizer space music under the name Telomere. via Le Wikipedia
Watching this video and remembering all the songs I used to listen to back then makes me realize how little I appreciated the 90's when I was actually living them. In retrospect, these were some of the best songs of my life, the best years of my life.
Man, I played this on a whim on a youtube rabbit hole... I've never had such a deeply subconscious wave of nostalgia come rushing over me before. I have no specific memory of it and I honestly forgot it existed, but like 10 seconds in and I feel like I'm 6 years old again. Holy shit what a trip. I love the internet.
I've been searching for this song for 32 years. Finally, a Boston college radio station (88.9/WERS) played it TODAY, and I did not notice until the chorus, which was the only thing I remembered kicked in. I almost freaked out. Thank you.
Joshua was a kind young man. He was a gentleman and fine musician. It broke my heart watching his illness slow him down, yet he had a kind word for you and showed respect to everyone. When he stopped coming around to my guitar shop even my wife noticed his absence .He was a fixture in the store and would constantly run into someone he knew. I don't think I could forget his big smile. Now that i have adult children, i think about his parents and feel for them. What a wonderful child. God bless you Joshua
It's beautifully composed, sung and each one of the musicians were ahead of their time. Had it not been for cancer... I believe they would"ve taught the younger generation a great deal. R.I.P.
I saw these guys open for Jesus Jones at the Hollywood Palace in 1991. I sat with Josh in the parking lot, talking before the show. I remember him being a very humble, polite person. It's a shame we don't have him around today.
I love this song. My Dad told me he was filming a video for some smart young kids. My Dad was a great character actor. Martin Clark. I had heard this song a lot & really loved it. So when I saw the video. I thought how F-ing Awesome is that. My Pop finally did something I can brag about. He's the Elder man dancing. He told me he had difficulty not laughing when the dog's were licking his face. I miss my Pop. He was a Awesome Dad. He went 4/21/14 His ticker's time was up. I really do Love everything about this video. I am recording a cover of it. Under The Spy Darz from Marz-3SD Ps: It also Tears me up hearing about Josh Clayton Felt. What a Legendary Guy & Song/Video to leave us with in memorys. Thanks Josh & The Band it's been years since I've visited this video. Thank you all for the Awesome responses to my response. 😁❤️
@James Tippens Awww. That is totally awesome that your Father was in this video! I would be really proud of that as well. I really love "School Of Fish". I went to see them once and hit it off really well with Josh Clayton-Felt. I swear to God it seemed like we were falling in love, (this was after the show). We were talking for hours. But then my best friend Bob, who I grew up with, who was also gay, got cranky and irritable. Which normally happens when he drinks. We had just turned 21. Bob started bitching and saying, "I want to go home! Let's go! I don't want to be here anymore!" . Unfortunately, I was driving. Incidentally, I never ever drank. To this day I've never had one drink. I was so sad that I had to leave Josh. And as I was leaving, I kept looking back at him and he just kept watching me walk away. Ahh, what might have been! I saw him once more when he left the band and went solo several years later and opened up for Del Amitri, who I also love. I saw Josh walk by and he did a double take when he saw me. I don't know what came over me, but I just sort of walked away really fast, not looking back. It broke my heart. But I'm sure things were different by that point. I'm sure he didn't have an interest in me anymore and probably had a girlfriend. Anyway, I lost my beloved Father only three months before you lost yours. I'm very sorry that your Dad passed away. It seems like you were lucky to be his son. My Father had heart disease for a good part of his life. And 16 days before he died they found out he was in stage 4 of heart failure. So, it sounds like we lost our Fathers to similar conditions. I miss my Superman everyday and I still cry all the time because he's not here with me anymore. Even though it's been three years. I'm going to look up your Father's name and see what other acting roles he had. And I'm also going to watch this video again so I can get a good look at him! Thank you for telling us about your Dad! That's really super cool! I firmly believe we will be reunited with them again someday. 😀👼💞👍🌼✌🍀
Hi James. I work with Josh’s (the singer) family to help promote his music. Josh died 19 years ago. If there is anything your dad shared with you about the making if the video, I’d love to share it with his family. Thx for sharing your story.
A very smart slice of rock. It's got it all- a sharp driving riff throughout, psychedelic effects and lyrics, a clever bridge, a key change and some fiery guitar work at the end.
FWIW, when the lockdown started (2020), I was at the Belle Meade Kroger in Nashville. Half the store was emptied out like it was Venezuela, but then I noticed: WHY THE DEUCE y'all gotta put your Very Special Pesach Section directly across from the bacon aisle. Wut the exact.
It was 1991, I was definitely in that “Coming of Age” age range. This one definitely one of the 1st rock songs I liked, along with Living Colour - “Cult of Personality”. I wasn’t old enough to go clubbing or drinking yet, but these were good musical times!
I remember windsurfing in the 90's when it blew over 25 knots for three days when I had off from work. This song came on the radio when I was finally driving back to work. Cranked the radio up to 11. Forever etched in my memories.
For three strange days I had no obligations My mind was a blur I did not know what to do I think I lost myself When I lost my motivation Now I'm walking 'round the city Just waiting to come to For three strange... For three strange days I couldn't put a smile on my face So they dressed me up in all of their clothes And took me somewhere else Johnny Clueless was there With his simulated wood grain So I pulled up a chair And started drinking by myself For three strange... I've got to make it through No matter what it takes Oh I've got to make it through These strange days I lay down for a while And I woke up on the ocean Floating on my back And staring at the gray It was completely still Except the pounding of my heart Bringing me back to life From three strange days Three strange... Three strange days Three strange days
I'd forgotten the name of this band. For about 5 years I would occasionally think of this song, but could never remember who did it, then about a week ago I was at work and just yelled out loud SCHOOL OF FISH! much to the alarm and confusion of my co-workers.
Well let me say welcome to many peoples nostalgia lol. Doesn't matter how you got here as long as you're here. The rest of the band got together in 2020 and re did this song and it's just as amazing! I had no idea up until 30 mins ago that the lead singer, Josh,passed away in 2000.. In the new 2020 video, Chad sounds very much like him.. So welcome to the best years of our lives kind sir ❤ I do agree though.. this song is bangin! And hey, now as you revisit the song over the years it'll become one of your Nostalgic memories ❤. Oh shit, the band is called Laslo Bane or Lazlo Bane. It's such a beautiful tribute to Josh and to our youth.
Everyone who likes this song has a different view of their time with it. Mine is boogie boarding in Hawaii in the military. Also snowboarding in Minnesota. One of my faves.
Used to blast this one late at night back in the 90s. Never saw the video. These guys look so young and sweet. So terribly sad to hear that adorable singer passed on so young. Hope hes in heaven singing to my beautiful niece, Julia.
Amazing! great singer, so sad, he passed away so young. love this song, one of my music video playlist. Thank's (School of fish)for having this sound. R.I.P Josh Clayon Felt, miss you
Met MP (the drummer) back when this album came out, and we were pen pals for awhile (back when that was still a thing ;) )~ he was such a sweetheart... sad loss of Josh at such a young age...
I'll never forget when I first heard this song. I was on my way to work listening to KROQ in L.A. sitting in traffic on the 405 freeway in the heart of San Fernando valley. I fell in love with it instantly! Heard the singer died soon thereafter of cancer I think. What a bummer. This song is one of the best I've ever heard! Agree - will never get tired of it and agree about guitar riff.
sugar magnolia I first heard this on KROQ as well in my junior year at Burroughs in Burbank (the year it came out). Nobody I knew liked this song. I'll still never understand why.
I too heard this song on KROQ in LA, sitting in traffic, on my way to work in the San Fernando Valley. If I am right, it was the first time they played it, and I liked it so much when I got off work I went to Tower Records on Sunset and bought the cassette single-there wasn't an album yet.
I've listened to this song "Three Strange Days" for three straight days now, no lie. Such a great song. It's bittersweet for me because it also reminds me of the most traumatic moment of my life. The intro reminds me of the intro to Stone Temple Pilots' "Vasoline" (1994), and the outro is also reminiscent of a different song. I rate this song as five stars.🏅🏅⭐🌟🌟
Back in late 1990, I taped an episode of MTV’s 120 Minutes, and this was one of the video that played. I learned of the existence of School of Fish and several other bands that night.
I really really really really really really really miss the 90s. I raced Motocross and listened to some great tunes like this. God I wish I could relive a few of those years.
Oh man...what a classic gem this song is. It was a mildly popular on radio and I always cranked it. Please look up the biographical short film the singer made when he embarked on a solo career, he was so sweet and full of positivity about his burgeoning future as a musician. All the more devastating that he died so young from cancer. He would not have ended up a jaded suicidal rockstar. Love.
YES!. love this song hearing it 1st time back in 1992 in my new car & didn't know the name, never heard it again till i came across it today 30 years later. time warp, missing the 90s so much. The last decade of respect, good music, & love.
I don't know why but your comment bring me to a place I've never been and lifes I've never lived. We are so many people in the planet an at the end we miss so many wonderful people and places that we won't ever see... greetings from Madrid. Carpe diem bro
This is one of only a few cd's I could actually listen all the way through because I truly enjoyed each and every song. The whole album is worth a listen. Excellent music!
I had the cassette single of this in 1991 (on the B side was "Let's Pretend We're Married," a Prince cover), and bought the full CD in 1992. It's outstanding... favorites include this one, Speechless, Rose Colored Glasses, Wrong, but I liked them all. Human Cannonball wasn't as good, IMO, but had some good ones, like Fountain.
I’m 23, I heard this song in a grocery store. I’ve had the album on repeat on Spotify for a week. I love 90’s albums, there is something different about how they sound and recorded. They sound so good compared to album today. I think a lot of things are over produced, albums before 2000 just seem simple. The music is more raw, creative and melodic. I’m constantly digging for 90’s bands and music. 🤷🏼♀️
Howard Stern was talking about this song on his show today. I guess he just discovered it. I always loved this song, such great vocals and great guitar. It's sad the singer passed away so young but he obviously lived an awesome life, however short.
As I had already cleared 30 and was raising a family, I didn't appreciate how talented so many of these '90s bands were at the time they were popular. I heard many songs I liked on the radio, but usually didn't know the groups. This song always stuck out and I'm glad I can watch the video now. Very sorry to hear that Josh passed at such a young age. But he gave us gifts that will last far into the future. I think this video set is the same that the British pop band Squeeze used in their video for the song Hourglass a few years earlier.
Man, I remember when this song would come on the radio, such a killer, hard rockin' riff unlike any before, then they would double down halfway thru with the key change.What a time to be alive.

Still Listening & Loving This In Spring 2024
If I had to pick a song that encompassed my feelings and soul searching during my college years, it’s this one. This song still kills it decades later. RIP Josh.
True that
One of my faves back in my college days.
Saw them live on campus, it was lit!
I was going to a junior college and working on lawn crew. Definitely strange but good days!
This is what I play in the morning to make my day begin a lot better more better lol
RIP Michael Ward. Huge talent. ❤
Rest well Michael Ward. Your incredible guitar playing lives on forever.
Gives me goosebumps. 30 years fly by!
Yes they do
One of the best songs of the 90's !
❤
That Guitar riff use to play a lot! Even in nba games!
….and 2024!
I will never get tired of this song. It's just perfectly put together.
It's amazing how these kids came up with an amazing combination of major and minor pentatonics. The groovey riffs and of course the tapping. Masterpiece.
This entire CD takes me back to a time and place in my life that can never be repeated and will be forever cherished! Viva the 90's
bill smith Im with you on that.. I can always remember and feel good about those days..

lux lotus. You seem like you're a person who seeks quality in music. I want to give you an album to checkout & tell me how you like it after you listen to it. The name of the album is (Ocean Beach) by the group (Red House Painters) Enjoy & don't forget to tell me your opinion.
I can vouch. Red House Painters are tops. Kinda different vibe. But solid...
Late 80s early 90s was the best time for me, late 90s the vibe had changed already didn't like it.
Played this at our wedding reception on October 12, 1991... absolutely loved it.
Odds are you're probably divorce by now.
@@Havaseet2 yep.
Cool. I wish you two dudes the best of luck.
You have good taste in music my friend 👍
I am soon to turn 60 and I remember when this song hit the airwaves !! Loved it then and still Loving it now!!!

I have a similar memory, this song really defines and locks in those feelings and mental snapshots.
Thanks for sharing the memory. I can still remember my lock-in back in 2002. Feels like yesterday!
I had a similar experience, except mine was getting a restraining order to never set foot on school grounds again LOL
What a awesome memory
DevilTC wow 89 myself river music
RIP Michael Ward. You made an awesome riff for this song.
I miss when MTV used to play music videos. What a time to be alive.
It got co-opted by gross Rap and pushing the thug life garbage.
This was such an awrsome time to be alive. No social media. Good times.
I never lived that life. I’m 23. But some how I miss it too.
I miss the days where social media wasn't as big as it is now
Was voted # 1 song on WWCD in Columbus.
Social media is fantastic, it's just become too powerful to the point where we have a million little tyrants.
The 90's was unbelievably great.
This song is banging. Still epic in 2022. 🎸
FULLY AGREED!!!

Man, I played this on a whim on a youtube rabbit hole...
I've never had such a deeply subconscious wave of nostalgia come rushing over me before. I have no specific memory of it and I honestly forgot it existed, but like 10 seconds in and I feel like I'm 6 years old again. Holy shit what a trip. I love the internet.
Same for me but on Amazon music. I was born in 1984 so I also must have subconscious memories from around that age.
Honestly some really great times, 1989-1995 has some really special music.
One of the most nostalgic sounds in opinion. 90s in a bottle right here folks.
The exact same thing happened to me
One of the best songs ever. Period. It's simple, doesn't piss anyone off, and isn't confusing. Plus you can dance to it. ;-)
And sing with it =D
I've been searching for this song for 32 years. Finally, a Boston college radio station (88.9/WERS) played it TODAY, and I did not notice until the chorus, which was the only thing I remembered kicked in. I almost freaked out. Thank you.

Possibly my absolute favorite song of the early 90's...how can you deny the elegant brilliance of such a perfect song?
It IS brilliant!❤

INCREDIBLY UNDERRATED BAND. I Miss this music.
I just recently discovered this song in 2018. This song needs a comeback. It is so perfect for these strange days.
One of the grittiest guitar sounds and rock songs ever! I always get pumped up when I hear this song! Great band!
New to me but I'm a 90s kid so finding unheard bangers is always a joy!
You can feel The Cult and Jane bouncing around in the sound.
YESSSSSS , its all just 12 things . a variation of a theme.
I think it sounds like enuff z nuff
This is one of those songs where the louder you play it the better it sounds.
My wife asleep .
You ain't kidding
90's alternative 90's music videos how I miss you.
A very smart slice of rock. It's got it all- a sharp driving riff throughout, psychedelic effects and lyrics, a clever bridge, a key change and some fiery guitar work at the end.
Heard it for first time ever just now on radio. GOOD TUNE.
For some reason, this song plays regularly over the speaker system at our local Kroger. Strange days, indeed.
That's where I first heard it.
For three strange days I was shopping for 10 for $10 deals
someone cool works there
FWIW, when the lockdown started (2020), I was at the Belle Meade Kroger in Nashville. Half the store was emptied out like it was Venezuela, but then I noticed: WHY THE DEUCE y'all gotta put your Very Special Pesach Section directly across from the bacon aisle. Wut the exact.
Its called we're getting old lol
It was 1991, I was definitely in that “Coming of Age” age range. This one definitely one of the 1st rock songs I liked, along with Living Colour - “Cult of Personality”. I wasn’t old enough to go clubbing or drinking yet, but these were good musical times!
I haven't heard this song in decades. Definitely a Roxette vibe to it.
Almost forgot about this one. Lots of good music back then.
Summer of 1991. Hard to believe it’s been 30 years. I was 20 yo on my way to summer school which I hated. Listening to this on my way was the best!
Dude I was 20 yo too!!
Bitchin song man!!
@@amadorramirez1193 those were the best days and so glad we got to enjoy them.
I remember windsurfing in the 90's when it blew over 25 knots for three days when I had off from work. This song came on the radio when I was finally driving back to work. Cranked the radio up to 11. Forever etched in my memories.
2024 and still vibing this tune!❤
Still rocking this song in 2023!!!
The guitar rift at the start is one of the all time best!
It's the best. Such a simple progression, but insanely emotional. My favorite part. I'm glad someone else gets it. Cheers!
yes, i totally agree, i love the guitar player do you know where he is now?
I don't but Google has all the answers for that probably. :)))
Also, the version with the intro, a different version, is even better.

We miss your great music
Mr. Josh Clayton-Felt. You left us too young. 😔
May 18, 1967 - January 19, 2000 🙏
after all these years, how does this have just over a million views? this song is still fantastic!!!!
You are fantastic too!
Haven't heard this in decades.
For three strange days
I had no obligations
My mind was a blur
I did not know what to do
I think I lost myself
When I lost my motivation
Now I'm walking 'round the city
Just waiting to come to
For three strange...
For three strange days
I couldn't put a smile on my face
So they dressed me up in all of their clothes
And took me somewhere else
Johnny Clueless was there
With his simulated wood grain
So I pulled up a chair
And started drinking by myself
For three strange...
I've got to make it through
No matter what it takes
Oh I've got to make it through
These strange days
I lay down for a while
And I woke up on the ocean
Floating on my back
And staring at the gray
It was completely still
Except the pounding of my heart
Bringing me back to life
From three strange days
Three strange...
Three strange days
Three strange days
Lookin kinda feminin Micheal.
Thanks for the Lyrics😁😁😁😎
I'd forgotten the name of this band. For about 5 years I would occasionally think of this song, but could never remember who did it, then about a week ago I was at work and just yelled out loud SCHOOL OF FISH! much to the alarm and confusion of my co-workers.
Wow! What a blast from the past. A rare treat. I damn near forgot about these guys. Too bad they had an unfortunate end. Way too soon. R.I.P. Josh.
Such an underrated band! And so sad that Josh died so young. Him, Jeff Buckley, Kevin Gilbert; the really talented one's somehow go to soon...
I just read about what happened to Josh. So sad and horrible.
I seen Josh as the opening act for Tori Amos.He was really talented.RIP.
Yea, so tragic, I felt so bad reading about what happened to him....got dealt some really bad cards.
Always love this song :)
I miss Josh. It's a shame... He was such a talent and an amazing songwriter/musician.
My first time hearing this. It's definitely banging!
Well let me say welcome to many peoples nostalgia lol. Doesn't matter how you got here as long as you're here. The rest of the band got together in 2020 and re did this song and it's just as amazing! I had no idea up until 30 mins ago that the lead singer, Josh,passed away in 2000.. In the new 2020 video, Chad sounds very much like him.. So welcome to the best years of our lives kind sir ❤ I do agree though.. this song is bangin! And hey, now as you revisit the song over the years it'll become one of your Nostalgic memories ❤. Oh shit, the band is called Laslo Bane or Lazlo Bane. It's such a beautiful tribute to Josh and to our youth.
Everyone who likes this song has a different view of their time with it.
Mine is boogie boarding in Hawaii in the military. Also snowboarding in Minnesota.
One of my faves.
Used to blast this one late at night back in the 90s. Never saw the video. These guys look so young and sweet. So terribly sad to hear that adorable singer passed on so young. Hope hes in heaven singing to my beautiful niece, Julia.
Amazing! great singer, so sad, he passed away so young. love this song, one of my music video playlist. Thank's (School of fish)for having this sound. R.I.P Josh Clayon Felt, miss you
this song is one continuous, non-stop hook
Classic 90s Song. Gotta love that Guitar Riff, and Vocals.
Just more proof my childhood rocked and I have amazing taste in music. At the age of 27, I truly appreciate music.
A one hit wonder song I totally forgot about. I played this song EVERY day on my way to working 2 jobs and going to college!
Great song. It brought me back to the early 90's when I was in high school. love it.
3 Strange Days and here we are 30 years later!
Dude's rockin' that headband HARD man. LOVE this song
I saw 'em open for Paul Westerberg at Liberty Lunch in Austin in '93. Those were the days...
Damn that was great show
You flashed me back to the 90's. IMO, the 90's alternative scene was pure, and just fun. Thank you for being there SOF. Much love.
Met MP (the drummer) back when this album came out, and we were pen pals for awhile (back when that was still a thing ;) )~ he was such a sweetheart... sad loss of Josh at such a young age...
I'll never forget when I first heard this song. I was on my way to work listening to KROQ in L.A. sitting in traffic on the 405 freeway in the heart of San Fernando valley. I fell in love with it instantly! Heard the singer died soon thereafter of cancer I think. What a bummer. This song is one of the best I've ever heard! Agree - will never get tired of it and agree about guitar riff.
sugar magnolia At least u had a good tune to listen to while sitting in traffic!!
sugar magnolia I first heard this on KROQ as well in my junior year at Burroughs in Burbank (the year it came out). Nobody I knew liked this song. I'll still never understand why.
Right On KROQ! The Inland Empire I.E. in the House!
I too heard this song on KROQ in LA, sitting in traffic, on my way to work in the San Fernando Valley. If I am right, it was the first time they played it, and I liked it so much when I got off work I went to Tower Records on Sunset and bought the cassette single-there wasn't an album yet.
"And Johnny Clueless was there with his simulated wood grain". I remember when this song hit college radio and I've been hooked since. Great band!
Wow, I always thought he was saying "word brain"!
I always thought it was "stimulating word play."
I've listened to this song "Three Strange Days" for three straight days now, no lie.
Such a great song. It's bittersweet for me because it also reminds me of the most traumatic moment of my life.
The intro reminds me of the intro to Stone Temple Pilots' "Vasoline" (1994), and the outro is also reminiscent of a different song.
I rate this song as five stars.🏅🏅⭐🌟🌟
Back in late 1990, I taped an episode of MTV’s 120 Minutes, and this was one of the video that played. I learned of the existence of School of Fish and several other bands that night.
Had a library of those taped from MTV! Oh, the memories! I bought so much music after watching 120 minutes.
I really really really really really really really miss the 90s. I raced Motocross and listened to some great tunes like this. God I wish I could relive a few of those years.
Oh man...what a classic gem this song is. It was a mildly popular on radio and I always cranked it. Please look up the biographical short film the singer made when he embarked on a solo career, he was so sweet and full of positivity about his burgeoning future as a musician. All the more devastating that he died so young from cancer. He would not have ended up a jaded suicidal rockstar. Love.
Damn this song brings back great memories; maybe I'd take the blue pill and go back to the early 90s...
I know, right!? Ifeel we took it for granted we hen we were young. It was an amazing decade.
If I could go back to stay in any time it would be the early 60s & I lived through the 90s......
@@rosecrow1545 there's always a dumb bitch.
Listening to this on the original CD i bought when it first came out...
Same here.
YES!. love this song hearing it 1st time back in 1992 in my new car & didn't know the name, never heard it again till i came across it today 30 years later. time warp, missing the 90s so much. The last decade of respect, good music, & love.
Saw them in concert back in the day in a bowling alley in Omaha!
I don't know why but your comment bring me to a place I've never been and lifes I've never lived. We are so many people in the planet an at the end we miss so many wonderful people and places that we won't ever see... greetings from Madrid. Carpe diem bro
Takes me back to trippin' in the early 90's. Fun times while they lasted.
You can always start eating acid again.
Is that you Rivan? For some reason I remember you have muff diver written on the front on your college notebook from ISU.
@@larryhughes4058 If it was good you would walk around the city just waiting to come to for three strange days.
This is one of only a few cd's I could actually listen all the way through because I truly enjoyed each and every song. The whole album is worth a listen. Excellent music!
The Grays - RoShamBo is another of those types of albums - no bad song on it. Too bad they broke up so quickly ...
Scott Mandel human cannonball was also amazing
Agreee, their first album was solid from end to end. Their second album was a big disappointment though.
I had the cassette single of this in 1991 (on the B side was "Let's Pretend We're Married," a Prince cover), and bought the full CD in 1992. It's outstanding... favorites include this one, Speechless, Rose Colored Glasses, Wrong, but I liked them all. Human Cannonball wasn't as good, IMO, but had some good ones, like Fountain.
I’m 23, I heard this song in a grocery store. I’ve had the album on repeat on Spotify for a week. I love 90’s albums, there is something different about how they sound and recorded. They sound so good compared to album today. I think a lot of things are over produced, albums before 2000 just seem simple. The music is more raw, creative and melodic. I’m constantly digging for 90’s bands and music. 🤷🏼♀️
I remember the 1st time I heard this song - sitting on the 405 in San Fernando Valley on my to work - I fell in love instantly. Thank you KROQ!
I still love the shit outta this song and always will!!!
+Keith Miller The full unedited version (including Intro) is MUCH better
+Glen Tannehill Oh I have it Glen.
+Glen Tannehill Do you have a link to that, Glen? I heard this song for the first time in YEARS and I flipped!
+Glen Tannehill yeah how do u find it
+Glen Tannehill yeah how do u find it
Still bumpin in 2018...whole album is just brilliant
I'm gonna check it out! thanks
Human Cannonball is even better. Josh's solo stuff is fantastic as well.
2019!
I had this on a cassette single in 1991. I am just now seeing this music video in 2021.
I was living in L.A. when this came out. Was such a good album. Great memories.
RIP Josh Clayton Felt
One of my all-time favs. Had to hear it today.
I will always worship this song
They need to play this on the radio at least once a week.
I remember the first time i heard this one. I was driving semi over the road, and it was just a good song to drive to,and still is!!!!!
👁👁
Howard Stern was talking about this song on his show today. I guess he just discovered it. I always loved this song, such great vocals and great guitar. It's sad the singer passed away so young but he obviously lived an awesome life, however short.
WOW. Did not know that!
The guitarist, Michael Ward, later joined The Wallflowers.
is it just me or does the bassist resemble Jennifer Connelly?
No, I see it too
are you sure the bassist isn't a dude?
Great Great Great song. Great memories flooding my head right now.
used to play this on my college radio show for years. goes hard still.....
That opening riff though !!!!
I saw these guys 2 blocks from my house at the PB Block Party back in like 1994-5- Pacific Beach, CA..they were AWESOME!!
As I had already cleared 30 and was raising a family, I didn't appreciate how talented so many of these '90s bands were at the time they were popular. I heard many songs I liked on the radio, but usually didn't know the groups. This song always stuck out and I'm glad I can watch the video now. Very sorry to hear that Josh passed at such a young age. But he gave us gifts that will last far into the future. I think this video set is the same that the British pop band Squeeze used in their video for the song Hourglass a few years earlier.
Man, I remember when this song would come on the radio, such a killer, hard rockin' riff unlike any before, then they would double down halfway thru with the key change.What a time to be alive.
