The whole "Running On Empty" album was songs about how he felt about his career in music, and life on the road. My favorite songs on it are "The Load-Out>Stay", very much worth a listen.

David Lindley on lap steel -- still dynamic like nobody else. The song is about the disillusionment of the 70s after the promised spirit of the 60s began winding down. The Vietnam War was over, but the aftermath raised many uncomfortable questions and "Us and Them" took on new meanings. And here we are, a divided nation once again.

@lancealrick6898 Год назад

Yeah, and they cut it off before his final iconic riffs. Smdh

@billbitterman9487 Год назад

David Lindley is an amazing musician. If it has strings, he can play it. While I wish he still toured with Jackson, the musicians that are in JB’s band and play on his records are all among the best there are. Jackson has said that his father urged him to always play with musicians who are better than him. JB is a very fine musician in his own right but always follows his fathers advice

Jackson Browne good rabbit hole to fall into. Many good songs. very talented singer/songwriter.

@randyjohnson1439 Год назад

Deeply reflective, searching ... searching on how to catch up to where he should be, but still running behind ... running on empty with almost no hope, in futility, to ever get where he is going to ... and he is telling the story to all who are interested ... and to a woman who should know that he will not be sidetracked in his journey ... because he is running behind and running on empty but determined to get where he is going...

@kimbunchalastnames5357 Год назад

jackson browne tried to pick me up at a backstage party at a concert in 1978. it wasn't his concert, which is probably why i didn't recognize him, lol. he asked if he could get me a glass of wine on his way across the room, and then he asked me again, on the way back. right after i said "no, thanks," a little more emphatically the second time, he smiled and walked away and someone hollered, "jackson!" and i turned to the guy next to me and asked who the guy was, and he said, "oh, that's jackson browne." i thought he was, like, this 14 year-old kid who'd gotten away from his parents. he didn't come back by to see if third time was the charm.😅

@your_huge_ego_bores_me Год назад

There really aren't words to explain to people who weren't alive how classic this song is. The "sound of a generation" just does no justice.

@mitchelldruckman1452 Год назад

Jackson Browne in my mind is right there with the greatest song writers of all time. The Beatles, Stones, Dylan, Zeppelin., etc... His catalogue is astounding! Every song, especially on the first six albums, is brilliant. He, to me, defines what a singer song writer is and should be.

@richard_n Год назад

@jrepka01 Год назад

He is singing to the audience about his life on the road: "If I can get you to smile before I leave" and "I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels." Many of the album's songs deal with life on the road -- and keeping with the theme it is all recorded on the road during the tour for his previous album The Pretender. Not just concert performances but several songs were performed in motel rooms. "Nothing but Time" was recorded while in transit on the bus (you can hear the bus' engine and gears shifting during the song). The intro to the song "The Road" was recorded in a quiet hotel room while the rest of the song was recorded on stage. "The Load Out/Stay" was performed as the intro to the first encore, and the songs are a tribute to the tour's roadies (The Load-Out) and to the audience (Stay).

One of the best songwriter of the era and still doing it to this day. I’ve seen him multiple times over the years including the tour when this album came out. Hey remains one of the best I’ve ever seen. His catalogue of music is deep and impactful. He writes about relationships, preserving our environment, human rights and he lives the life he sings about. I can’t say enough about him as an artist and human being.

@peacecole1968 Год назад

Glenn Frey of the Eagles learned to write songs by listening to Jackson Browne who lived above him. He said he could hear him playing music above and could literally hear is teapot whistling every morning. (Just something to know)

I constantly hear Take It Easy when I listen to this song.

@jmalfatto7004 Год назад

My mom used to play this album when I was a kid in the late 70’s. I assume the lyrics are autobiographical about his life as a touring musician, bussing from one city or town to the next show. If I recall correctly, this is actually a live recording.

@briansmith48 Год назад

"Won't you stay just a little bit longer" is another song about life on the road. And that is definitely a live recording. I initially never heard the actual beginning of the song until much later in life, the radio stations would always cut that part.

"The Load Out/Stay" - "The Pretender" - "Tender Is the Night" -" Redneck Friend" and "Take It Easy" are my favorite Jackson Browne songs, but "Running On Empty is really good too.

Great song. It’s always been one of my favorites.

My interpretation of the song is like Lex’s interpretation. He’s going through the stages of his life and seeing how quickly it all passes by. It puts me in the mind frame of listening to Time by Pink Floyd. Especially the line where he says “no one told you when to run”

@andrewpetik2034 Год назад

I have always been able to lose myself in this song. When the song was released in 1977, I was in my teens and identified with the lyrics so much. The lyrics draw you in and transport you. From the first notes played, you can sense that you are traveling at a high rate of speed and that feeling is solidified by those first words Jackson sings...'looking out at the road rushing under my wheels'.... from that point on to even after the song ends....you feel like you are running...you don't know why you are OR where you are running to .... Another fantastic song from the 1970s!!

@the_black_arts Год назад

Jackson is the quintessential California singer/songwriter. He also worked with The Eagles, and co-wrote one of their biggest songs, ‘Take It Easy’. He also lent his studio to Stevie Ray Vaughan to record his first record.

@stevedahlberg8680 Год назад

I love this song so much, I never get tired of it. When I was a kid I really never thought about what it meant at all. It just sounded good and it was easy to sing along with. Now that I'm much older, I love the song structure, he talks about how he was when he was 16 and then about how he was when he was 21 and he's not sure how the road that he was on turned into the road that he's on now. I love the final verse when he looks around for the friends that he used to turn to to help pull him through, and looking into their eyes, I see that they are running too. Just everything Rings true about that and I love the singing too I'm not sure if it's true, but I heard that the drummer use the cardboard box for the kick drum on this. But I've already noticed in other comments, you have actually got to please check out and possibly even react to one of his most classic songs in addition to this one, Loadout / Stay. Make sure to get a single clip that includes both parts of these back-to-back songs, they run together on the album and we're almost always played together on the radio. The first one is after the show and he's just sitting at his piano ruminating on what it's like to move from town to town and then the second part, is about when the lights come on and the band starts playing in the people come alive and the joy of that, and there he's saying, please please stay, he doesn't want it to end. It's just so fun and it's fantastic.

He's singing about spending his entire existence on the road - traveling all over the country - going from city to city always in a hurry to get to the next place on time. He seems to have lost himself in this perpetual road trip. His life is passing him by like the road beneath the wheels of his tour bus and the fields in the landscape. He knows that at some point in time the road trip will end and then will he recognize himself at that time and place? WE ALL can relate to that experience in the fact that we define ourselves in the eyes, the minds, the lives of everyone around us - especially family - and if or when that comes to an end we struggle mightily to define ourselves to ourselves. WHO AM I to myself. It is a universal experience. Got to love Jackson Browne!

Jackson is the nearest rock music got to a profound philosopher. In this song, he gets very personal but in others, for example, "Before the Deluge" he is talking about other people and their problems in trying to live a valid life. BTW, for me, Jackson is the greatest wordsmith of the rock era. he speaks to me in a way that, Bob and Joni, for example, don't quite manage.

This album was absolutely unique. It's a concept album where every song is about life on the road as a touring band, and the whole album is recorded on the road: in hotel rooms, on stage, backstage, on the tour bus. Most acts do live albums are basically greatest hits recorded live. Jackson Browne did a whole live album of new songs. Very brave. The backing band here is The Section (Leland Sklar on bass, Danny Kortchmar on Guitar, and Russ Kunkel on drums). The solo that Lex said she loves is played by David Lindley on the pedal steel guitar, which is a kindb of guitar you play seated kinda like a piano. It's a great sound, and Lindley is a master of the instrument.

@vaskylark Год назад

I take this song to mean we are all going through life and we don't ever know what will happen next (running blind). To run on empty or drive on empty is a dangerous thing. It's risky and you don't know if you will run out of gas or where or when that will be so it's scary in the same way as life is. We are all running on empty because life is full of twists and turns-- a rollercoaster of the unknown. That's what the song means to me. Jackson Browne is a very deep guy.

I always thought this song was about the collapse of the youthful idealism of the ‘60’s. The hippies really thought they would change the world for the better, but when the revolution died in the wake of Altamont, the Manson murders, and the rise of right wing politics there was a whole generation of disillusioned kids lost without a purpose and facing the fact that modern society was unsavable. The ‘70’s became “The Me Decade” with people retreating into hedonism and careerism, joining the system they failed to beat. It must have felt like they were truly running on empty, having failed and compromised on all their dreams and lofty ideals, and with no purpose now other than to simply survive and keep moving forward to who-knows-where.

@keef7224 Год назад

@@martyjansing2675 some rock stars and movie stars were doing coke in the 60’s, but I don’t think the average hippie ever saw much of it. It didn’t really become mainstream until the 70’s, so it’s hard to blame cocaine for the collapse of the hippie dream of the ‘60’s. Speed and heroin, perhaps, but not coke. Coke killed the 70’s dream of all-night partying with no consequences, most notably when Belushi died in the early ‘80’s.

Story of his life. "In 65 (1965) I was 17". and again "In 69 I was 21."(1969) He is sort of letting you know what's happened to him beginning in 1965 and then again in 1969. Like he still isn't sure where life is taking him, but the years just keep on going by as a Rock star on the road in a tour bus.

This was a great album, bordering on mandatory for its time. His "Saturate Before Using" album was great also. While the meaning is open to interpretation, I think this is about living the crazy life of a rock star while trying to remain sane.

The album isn't called "Saturate Before Using". It's self-titled.

And “Late for the Sky” was his masterpiece.

@jasonremy1627 Год назад

I'm partial to "For Everyman", but really every album he did from his debut through the early 80s were all amazing.

@deirdre108 Год назад

@@jasonremy1627 I love “For Everyman “! I would say that JB’s first three albums top any artist’s or band’s first three. But I’ve always been biased towards the singer/songwriter genre.

That guitar solo was jammed by a guy named Dave Linley on the lap guitar - Glenn Fry the eagles frontman learned how to write by listening to jackson brown through the walls of their apartment. Jackson hires the very best Musicians like bassist Leland Sklar and Linley. He's a fantastic performer.

What a coincidence that you should upload this as I’m sat watching Forrest Gump at the scene where he runs and this song is playing in the background 😆😂

Every once in a while an artist comes up for a reaction that isn't my thing. Here it is.

So many GREAT songs performed by this guy. This is easily the story of my life living all over this country, spending 11 years criss-crossing the hiways and biways of this country driving 18 wheelers, never finding "home". I have a hidden gem as my second favorite, "Before the Deluge" off from 'Late For The Sky' is such a poignant song on his Love for nature and the duality of mankinds relationship to itself and the little blue marble we live on... Give it a listen, even if you don't review it.

Jackson Browne was a great song writer... taught Glenn Frey a thing or two. Running on Empty is just literal, he felt like all he was doing was to pay bills, please people and life was passing him by as the 'road ran by' under his tour bus. Ever feel like that? btw... they cut the song short like so many lyric vids seem to. The outro guitar solo by Dave was great.

@jessejames8694 Год назад

Lex nailed it @5:57 with her comment, "That was kind of poetic." Jackson Browne's songs are very poetic and seem to genuinely grab your heart. Try listening to songs from a couple of his early albums Late For The Sky and The Pretender.
