James Joseph "Jim" Croce (January 10, 1943 - September 20, 1973) was an American folk and rock singer of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Between 1966 and 1973, Croce released five studio albums and singles. His songs "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown" and "Time in a Bottle" reached No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.
I wish he had lived long enough to KNOW what an impact he had on all of us.
🎯
I think he knows :)
Now that I'm in my early 50s, having cultivated musical tastes that have gotten very eclectic through my teens, 20s, 30s, and 40s (name the genre, and I'm very likely to have at least a few favorite artists and bands in it -- save for modern Country, Hip-Hop*, and mainstream Pop), I find myself coming back to acoustic '70s Folk music that I used to diss in my adolescence for being too quiet, soft and boring. But, now that I'm older and more mature (I hope), I can identify with the themes in the lyrics of many of these songs that I once hated, because I've lived a life with experiences similar to those themes of which I was totally ignorant of when I was much younger. There's also the sentimental/nostalgia factor in that these songs bring me back to the innocence of childhood when such songs would be playing on my mom's car radio when I'd be riding with her on grocery or other shopping errands, or runs to and from the post office, or rides to and from school -- same for the transistor radio in the kitchen when she'd be making breakfast, lunch or dinner. Because of that, hearing these kinds of songs now get me emotional in ways that they hadn't before
(*I'm talking about contemporary mumble/trap-rap)
That would of been a very sweet experience
That soaring middle bridge (2:06-2:30) is absolutely gorgeous! Jim wrote some of the best ballads (and fun songs too) ever done in folk music, in only 2 very short years that he was given! "While on his tours, Croce grew increasingly homesick, and decided to take a break from music and settle with his wife and infant son when his Life and Times tour ended. In a letter to his wife which arrived after his death, Croce told her he had decided quit music and stick to writing short stories and movie scripts as a career, and withdraw from public life." --Wikipedia entry on Jim Croce
That's because his record company made him pay back what it cost to make his albums. The money he got from performing was going to the record company. It left him disillusioned by the music industry.
I've been listening to his greatest hits album in my car for weeks. The music critics were not kind to him, but that is changing with time. He will go down in history as a great singer/songwriter.
"These dreams; they keep me goin' these days..." I'll bet that is a motto for many now in 2021!
A great talent who died too soon.......
ill never. understand the reason things happen crochet music help me through the good times and bad and I'm thankful thank you Jim
This is just a Cartola song called:
Cartoa - Preciso Me Encontrar. Search it.
@@DoubleKingStudio what do you mean ?
@@roybean7166 ruclips.net/video/fUjOfsoBhMY/видео.html
@@DoubleKingStudio hey, thanks, man. Never heard of him. You've taught me something new !!
gone for almost 50 years and his music still that fresh as ever and will live forever ! Perfection never dies!
👍🏻🎯
A damn great song when you feel depressed, despondent, sad, regretful, or lonely. RIP; Jim Croce. Great singer!
He had a way of writing poignant love songs, but this is a song about a lost love. It makes me a little sad when I hear it.
went way to young. I played his albums over and over again in the 1970's.Some of his songs could be the soundtrack of my life. Still playing them.
Cool idea
wore out 8 tracts,cassettes and still have original album in original case
Great music preserved for future generations. RIP, Jim C.
Just saw Jim Croce's son sing this in NYC last night. Fantastic singer.
It makes me think of my senior year of high school&old girlfriends
Anybody listening in 2020 ❤️
Damnit, I didn't remember buying a ticket to the feels trip before hearing this song...
lovely comment !
I'm 21. I grew up listening to Jim Croce. I had hoped that I would never know these lessons, these feelings. I lost love to circumstance. I lost love to ego. I lost love to my self..
I wish America could know the peace of mind people used to have. I wish people could genuinely love each other like they used to. That is what always comes to mind whenever I hear his music.
Yeah, at this point it's all fucked. Not just in america
Once we were lovers
But some how things have changed
Now we're just lonely people tryin' to forget each other's names
Now we're just lonely people tryin' to forget each other's names
What came between us?
May be we were just too young to know
But now and then I feel the same
And sometimes at night Ithink Ihear you callin' my name
Mmm hmm hmm these dreams
They keep me goin' these days
Once we were lovers
But that was long ago
Welived together then
And now we do not even say hello
Welived together then
And now we do not even say hello
What came between us?
May be we were just too young to know
But now and then I feel the same
And sometimes at night Ithink Ihear you callin' my name
Mmm hmm hmm these dreams
They keep me goin' these days
What came between us?
May be we were just too young to know
But now and then I feel the same
And sometimes at night Ithink Ihear you callin' my name
Mmm hmm hmm these dreams
They keep me goin' these days
This song defines melancholia over a lost love
Which I have to the max!
Memories flood. Wow, he is impossible not to be heard.
This real music.Real talent with no filler.
What a song! Damn! Absolutely soul crushing and beautiful, only Jim and Gordon can do that.
One of the best love songs ever
I think of him more as a great songwriter. Tis a shame he only had 30 years. His music transcends generations. This is fun surfing around and listening to great artists from the past.
I miss her in my life....
Cherish the good memories. Never let them go. Im sorry.
Zachary Potvin It’s all good. They’re locked away.
@@Hockeyjew702
After my first real love burned out like a house fire after 3 years of being inseparable and being only around 19 yrs old this song used to bring me to my knees with it’s honesty and how much I could relate...still brings back a lot of memories many years later. Jim was a true songsmith and died WAY too early what a tragic loss he was the greatest
relate to this comment so much, 2 year relationship, first real love. i remember driving around and this song came on the CD in my jeep, i used to drive for hours listening to that CD, especially this song and thinking about her. years have gone by now, doing much better but just a old memory that you unlocked with your comment.
@@saucynig779 Same here…so many years later, so much has changed yet the memory of first love is strong.
Man this song is awesome
Once we were lovers
But somehow things have changed
Now we're just lonely people
Trying to forget each other's names
Now we're just lonely people
Trying to forget each other's names
What came between us?
Maybe we were just too young to know
But now and then
I feel the same,
And sometimes at night I think
I hear you calling my name
Mm, mm, mm, these dreams
They keep me going these days
Once we were lovers
But that was long ago
We lived together then
And now we do not even say hello
We lived together then
And now we do not even say hello

This song rips off a bandaid, now 30 years old.
I never did fully recover from Sue.
I'd _love_ to hear this song arranged for string quartet!
Mi papá amaba esta canción y siempre que la escucho lo recuerdo 😊, te amo y te extraño mucho papá ❤️
RIP, mi Papa...
The early 70's era just might have been the Pinnacle of the singer/songwriter. Man I wish I had lived through that time. The past 20 years of popular music leaves sooooomuch to be desired. If you want to check out a talented singer/songwriter look into Angie Aparo. You might be pleasantly surprised.
Angie aparo is extremely talented and most definitely underrated.
Great song with beautiful lyrics
It's strange how these songs have more meaning to me now than when I was listening to them at the age of 16. I learned bad bad Leroy Brown on my guitar when I was about 18 and it was my brother who introduced me to this album.
WOW, talent personified!!! Light years ahead of today’s garbage. I could remain mesmerized with the music and his voice and just sway helplessly, very few artists of today can do that. Shame we lost him .
I love this song so much.
Love the lyrics....I always leave his songs in repeat mode. You can relate to some people in your life when you hear his songs..
One of a kind!
Trágicamente James Joseph Croce perdió la vida en 1973, pero Jim Croce no morirá nunca mientras haya jóvenes que acudan a su música para depurar el alma de ruidos y basura.
I wish he lived more to make more beautiful, real music..
A song that hurts you softly
My first Medevac unit I was assigned to was the 237th Air Ambulance Detachment in Ft, Ord,CA. Our detachment Sergeant was the medic who responded to the crash that took the life of Jim Croce. He didn't say much except that the plane was overloaded and couldn't get off the ground.
I have taught my daughters and grandson this wonderful person's music so his legacy will live on . ❤
RIP Jim!
Beautiful....

He was one of the all-time greats! Unknown how he passed away. R.I.P Jim Croce.
He was killed on September 20, 1973 when his plane crashed near Natchitoches, Louisiana...about 107 miles southeast of Shreveport.
The crazy thing about that plane crash was that the pilot was running late, so he jumped out of his car in traffic and ran about 3 miles (if my information is correct) to get to the plane. Problem is, he had a heart condition and died immediately on takeoff. The plane started descending and struck the only tree beyond the runway.
That was the day the music died, to be sure. What a tragic loss.
Lester Churchill , Same thing happened to the Big Bopper &Ritchie Valen Buddy Holly.
@@lesterchurchill9898 His time in the public eye was shockingly similar to Buddy Holly's, and Jim's passing will be 48 years (in 2 days) this upcoming Monday, Sep. 20! Both had only 2+ years: Jim 1972-74 for his music to be played, and Buddy 1957-59. Jim for folk songs and Buddy for rock. Both superb songwriters that left an incredible legacy and inspiration for others. There was never or will be another Buddy, and there never was or will be another Jim!
How this guy not in Rock N Roll hall of fame?? Great song writer! Epic songs !
Folk music doesn’t get the appreciation it deserves.
I love Jim Croce. My Grandmother turned me on to him and I have been listening to him ever since.
86 people don’t know what good music is.
This song reminds me of my past relationship, glad it’s over, it’s fun to be an optimist :)
Lovely man ❤❤❤❤🎉
Esta canción nos recuerda los bellos momentos que nos hiciste vivir Papá

Spettacolare!
beautiful
Amazing....Awesome....
Ce frumos, ❤ ! Ca un cântec de menestrel !
Eu sunt convins că avea origini italiene , omul ăsta , căci numele lui înseamnă cruce în traducere din italiană .
Dumnezeu sa te odihnească Jim Croce ! Am zis-o în limba noastră( limba română ) , limbă soră cu italiană !
Beautiful arrangement..
Jim was a genius song writer: 1 day he writes the funniest damn song, like Workin' at the Car Wash Blues, makes us laugh, and the next day he writes a heartbreakng song....like These Dreams. it almost as if he were bi-polar....saddest day im mjusic when he died, I was in high school and thew whole school ikt seemed was tlkaign about it and sad, no matter what background we came from ,what race, religion, it just broke our heart. [He did NOT write I've Got a Name as so many believe. Look it up].
The opening sounds like time in a bottle
Josiah Murdoch tighy
Josiah Murdoch I mean dminor is dminor
I wish I had lived then. In some ways I feel as though I did, and simply don't remember.
Miss you dad
So sad i didnt know him
amazing!
Great song 4 a couples love relationship 's chemistry going a different direction &doesn't quite click
Magnifique
This song
ฟังแล้วคิดถึงแฟนเก่า
Love the Picardy third at the end
I love to learn new musical terms. Thanks, friend!
I think I made a mistake, Julia I hope if you ever read this I hope you can forgive me. You are the most beautiful person I've ever met. We just happened meet at the wrong time. If you see this I will surely be with another lover, but I would still think of every day
Keep going these says
He did have at least another 40 years to live if it wasn't for the accident ,imagine
how many other song he would have compose in that period of time.Sad.
True !!
I agree
wow sad... I understand the distance ones can grow...39 yrs here.. but the key is you love them for a reason.... :-)
Great jim croce
ALL HERE YET
Mmm hmm hmm these dreams ❤
2:15 beautiful
I have always wanted to make a parody of this song called These Memes.
Then go for it if you can.
Tag me
This is too holy. Why
Ah, so that is why he was reluctant to release 'Time in a Bottle' before his death, as it seems 'These Dreams' which I have just heard now for the 1st time is played over the same chords and progression; only different timing and spaces, I guess I know that feeling as I do compose and play the guitar and had similar experiences to what am I suggesting here
Should be 'mm mm these dreams,... they've got me going insane'
game grumps brought me here..... but i like it im gonna stay
+Nicholas Schuster I am curious, when was this in Game Grumps?
super mario maker part 58 danny heard it in a dennys and used siri to try and find it.... i dont like punctuation.... sorry for any inconveniance
Nicholas Schuster Okay. I'll have to check that out. I find it odd that I didn't pick up on that. I am a fan of Jim Croce, and I love this song, so I should've remembered him mentioning this song.
+Nicholas Schuster It turns out that this actually wasn't the song. Danny said he figured it out later and named it on the show, and it wasn't this. But still, great find.
yeah i found that out too forgot to delete this post still like the song though still stayin
This is just a Cartola song called:
Cartoa - Preciso Me Encontrar. Search it.

A introdução lembra um pouco, mas são músicas bem diferentes. Gosto muito de ambas.
DAMATODA
But now and then
I feel the same,
And sometimes at night I think
I hear you calling my name
Mm, mm, mm, these dreams
They keep me going these days
❤️❤️❤️❤️
:")beautifull
This man died too young.
It's crazy how this sounds the same as "Day is done" by Nick drake.
Or maybe not so amazing.
Put this song in guardians of the galaxy I could see that happening
Loves a Joke. Beyond your Children it Seldom Exists.
1:15 1:19
Glad one other person came here from Game Grumps
What is the cause of his death? I don't have any idea.
Plane crash
sounds like Mozart...seriously
How come, after ~50+ years of hearing his music, am I only hearing this song for the first time tonight?
And then ONLY because someone in an obscure comment in a Reddit thread suggested that this song might be the unknown song in the Adult Swim clip below at time index 01:00... It's obvious not the same song. But this Croce song is a great one in itself, so I'm glad I checked the song in the Reddit comment.
I'm still trying to find the song at 01:00 in the clip below. It's beautiful.

Theme song .
my skype is... eziodirosa
Great musician and a poet. Full of charm and had a sense of realism about him. I mean he knew the world he lived in and wrote beautiful song about his experience in his life. The first time I watched him when I lived in Dublin on TV in 1975 I think. He commented on the lovely Guinness and how he needed to cut down on it as he couldn't fit his guitar plectrums in his waistband. Such a pleasure and very exciting to watch as a 15 year old. Been a life long admirer and fan ever since
Tears falling...what a great artist he was..
Reminds me of Scorpions...or vice versa.
Great music preserved for future generations. RIP, Jim C.
