Bought my first pc that year. This song brings back memories of this. I did not want standard. No 486dx100 for me... no no. Pentium 100. 2gb ram. ARK logic 32 screencard .. (the computershop asked me what I want to do with a 1mb card. Everybody is using 256 colors. Lol. I wanted 24bit color. Awe32 soundcard sounded excellent with the games that supported it. What a great day.
I don't know why after 30 years my brain decided it really needed to hear this song again from the Windows 95 system. Thank goodness for Google for being able to search what it was, RU-vid for having it and the artists for making such a great song.
My dad used to love this song when I was a child . He passed away this July and for some reason I thought of this song this morning . Listening made me tear up and laugh at the same time . As an adult, I can see why he liked it so much .
Sorry for your loss. He wouldn't have liked you to be sad. I'm sure your father was a happy man and led a good life with music, his family and you by his side. I'm old and when the time comes, I don't want my children to be sad. Be happy for him. From an old man from France. ❣
Condolence😢it gets better with time and you will always feel happy and sad. Happy for the good times and sad he's gone❤ my dad has been dead over 20 years😢
Its now 2024, and I've just rediscovered this song, my memory being triggered for Chic's 1978 song "Good Times." I remember so well playing this song on my Window 95 computer, for so many times I lost count. Absolutely love the song, singer, video, rain, and the scenes.
Good times indeed. I remember this song off the Win95 CD. I really loved it! Takes me back. If only life were that simple as even just 26-27 years ago. Folks still genuinely cared about one another it seems. How far have we fallen in so short a time. Thanks Edie for sharing this!
28 years on from when I got my first computer with Windows 95, and I still treasure this soothing song. I played it because I didnt have internet, but it was cool to watch a real digital video! I watched it so many times. Such nostalgia for youth!
My husband and I used to dance to this song, *laffs* even in a grocery store. He passed away on April 25th of 2020, As I sit here crying, remembering how this was our song. Thank you for sharing this!!!!
Yup . This came with windows 95 as a sample music video along with the game "Hover" and "Space Cadet Pinball". Windows 95 was the first time you could watch full blown actual music video clips and other film files on a PC. It blew our minds watching this video from the computer back then and we played it over and over. You guys have no idea
For some reason I liked to play the Wild America trailer over and over. I was like woah there is a movie clip playing on my computer, there's a MOVIE CLIP playing on my computer! Heck I was 15 at the time we didn't even have a DVD player yet just Hughes Net Directv.
3.5" floppy drive, AOL dial up, SVGA expansion card, 28k baud modem, FM radio card, 16 Meg memory sticks in all 4 slots!, Wolfenstein, Commander Keen,... Ahhhh, I'm zoning out. This is better than sex.
Went to visit Mom the other day and found my old PC still in the garage, decided to play with it and turned it on. The computer still works after almost 30 years and this song was in my hard drive. Love it to bits when it first came out and still enjoy it today. Ahhh !!! miss the computers in the 90s ❤❤
The first time i listened to that song was as a video under the 'Funstuff' section on the Windows95 setup disk.. i never got this sound out of my head. And now - twenty years later, i grabbed the CD again; and finally found it on youtube, too.. what a day! Good Times!! :o))
I remember finding it like yourself, loved it ever since. Just danced in the morning sun with my wife. She says I'm "Mad but she loves me". Thanks Edie and thanks Blarksel for the re-kindle…….
After three decades , still make me feel like it was yesterday, every time listen to this everlasting song . Thank you for the memories that came along with it.
My friend's wife worked for Microsoft when WIN 95 came out in 1996 and they invited us to Seattle for the big event. I remember we were in a nice pub and saw it get revealed on a very large screen and we all cheered LOL! The next week we purchased a brand new PC (printer and all) for $1500. The startup disc included this video, Weezer, MSN, etc. GOOD MEMORIES along with a lot of partying, camping, dirt biking, snowboarding, off-roading... Good times.
I still have my Packard Bell m400 computer that this CD was run on. Those computers were built to last and were made heavy. That helps me hold onto childhood. LOL
I absolutely loved this song and so crushed on her. My Win95 computer was the first computer capable of playing a video. It's taken me 28 years to find the video again. It's August 2023, I love it as much as the first time I saw it.
this was my first computer, and it was very impressive to see such a good quality on a video....i played this so many times...listening this song take me back there
I built and sold computer systems during this time and loved to play the music videos for my clients including this one, the one by the Wheezers from Happy Days, and the illustrated George Plimpton videos. Always amazed my clients to see computers playing actual videos. That was a long time ago, LOL. Edie, if by chance you read this comment, us computer nerds sure had a crush on you from this video. :)
I barely got to capture this nugget of a golden memory. It's only because I had a friend whose father was into corel draw for advertising, and he showed me such a great time in my life. I was a teen at this time, and he was a full blown unhealthy adult in his 30+ years of age, too. He showed me his work, his hand-sketched drawings, and allowed me to play a descent game demo while it was on there. Those were such wonderful moments of my life. such sweet memories were had. This video was in a folder, and I remembered watching it over and over again with amazement at the time. I captured this memory, and it forever resides within my mind. Oh, how I wish our world were as special as back in those times. I sometimes question whether it was merely my perception that'd changed, but I wager that our deterministic environment/existence has also changed... for the worse. :3
This song has done something very few songs have ever done, at least for me. Every time I listen to it, it sounds as good as the first time I heard it. I saved the original version from the Win 95 disk and kept up with it for years. The video is also enjoyable to watch every time.
A pretty girl, a stunningly beautiful smile and a lovely voice singing this hauntingly melodic song. I have seen this video thousands of times and will never tire of it, I just love her and I love listening to this. Thank you Edie x
I was amazed that videos can now be watched in my computer, first time I heard this song I was 18 now at 41 it still brings me good times... and memories.
I was brought back here from the same video! This song always gave me chills, and I'm happy to say still does. I love the song and the video. It was probably my first experience of not only a music video, but a full-motion video with real people, on a computer that I owned... back in February 1998.
Back in 94/95, when I entered my college, I went home and watching tv. My dad told me he loved this tune. He died in 1996. Almost 30 years, but is like yesterday time. Thank's for the song, Edie.
Her range of voice is incredible. When she makes her voice really deep and says “Baby I don’t have to go anywhere…” it doesn’t even sound like its her anymore.
Hello to all HEROS who comments here, the generation of 1990's and Windows 95, lovely people. Thank you Edie you gathered billions by your wonderful song.
No, Windows 95 did not bring me here. What brought me here was the memory of that Sunday evening in May of 1995 laying on the floor in our living room, trying to draw the roses depicted in my Mom's roses book, while my dad lay on the couch reading a Tom Clancy novel, with a few of his favorite magazines on standby Scientific American, National Geographic, Time Magazine, BusinessWeek, Newsweek while this song was playing in the background. I remember dating those drawings like I knew I would reminisce about that day some time in the future. My parents are no longer here, but I travel back to that evening because of this song.
This is the most recognized song on Brickell's first solo album Picture Perfect Morning. Soul singer Barry White, who was known for his deep voice and sensual songs, provided the sexy interlude. Brickell married Paul Simon in 1992. He produced this album. She was formerly with the band Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians.
This was on my 1st computer, it had a 1.7GB hard drive and games were mostly all DOS based. Dial up was soooo slow and it took ages to download a picture. Those were the days my friend.
270MB? Luxury, 178MB in my 486, ran at 33MHz and struggled to actually run Windows 95 (it shipped with Windows 3.1), but after waiting long enough, you could play this song off the Windows 95 CD-ROM :)
386sx, no coproc, 4mb ram 125mb HD running dos DD on it. to compact and double size, dos6.0/win3.1 2x scsi CD rom, pro audio spectrum 16 sound card, 14.4 upgraded to 28.8k modem, pci vga (non vesa2.0) card, full height AT tower.
I have a 8086 ibm ps/2 with a 12mhz cpu and 54mb hard drive sooooo, and a packard bell m400 166mhz, which started out with a 2.1gb until it got damaged sectors so i upgraded to a 40gb. funny thing is, the BIOS can't handle a 40 gig hard drive so there is something called Dynamic Drive overlay that tricks the computer into thinking it has four 10gb hard drives, but is able to lump them together as the C drive.
Voici maintenant 15 ans que je cherchais cette musique. Mes anciens collègues et moi l'écoutions toute la nuit au boulot car on travaillait au noir. On se consolait mutuellement avec cette mélodie. Aujourd'hui chacun a pris un chemin différent. 3 d'entre nous sont décédés et je pense fortement à eux (avec des larmes aux yeux) en écoutant à nouveau cette oeuvre qui nous à bercés tout ce temps. Merci! Merci! Merci!
Amazing how it was so impressive to suddenly have great video and sound playing on the livingroom computer. Everything just stopped for awhile while we enjoyed the good vibes. Kids today just don't experience PCs the same novel way.
This song brings back memories from 1995, the first time I heard this song was on a Windows 95 PC on Windows Media Player. Its life drifting back in time to those beautiful moments. I enjoy this song every time I hears it.
Wow, I've been trying to remember this song/video for YEARS and finally found it!!! Thank you for posting! I remember being blown away by this as a kid (ok, teenager); having a video playing on my IBM PS/2 computer back in the nineties - well before internet, smartphones, etc were standard! Still a good song :) THANK YOU!
Same for me. I was trying so hard for a long to remember this song then just 30 minutes ago I remembered 'Good times, bad times, give me some of that' so I typed those words into my search engin and it brought me here. I could hardly believe it. It might sound mad to some, but I was emotional listening to this song again after all these years :-)
Lol are you me? IBM PS/II yeah exactly! This video was on my drive for some reason. It's been years that I've been searching for this song. So happy to have finally found it!
You don't even have to try It comes easy for you The way you move is so appealing It could make me cry Go out driving with my friends In Bobby's big old beat up car I'm with a lot of people then I wonder where you are Good times, bad times, give me some of that Good times, bad times, give me some of that Good times, bad times, give me some of that I don't want to say goodbye Don't want to walk you to the door I spend a little time with you I want a little more Good times, bad times, give me some of that Good times, bad times, give me some of that Good times, bad times, give me some of that
I believe the 90s generation (and maybe the early 2000s) will be the last one(s) to have been genuinely amazed by technological advances. Nowadays everything is pre-sold, pre-ordered or leaked on the internet. When it comes to your household, it isn't unknown anymore.
Yep, that's something that really hit me when my grandma died 4 years ago, aged 97. I once asked her what she did with spare time when she was young, not knowing if something like 'spare time' even existed when she was 15-20 years old. She told me how she would go on a 45-minute bicycle-trip to Haarlem, because you could get a real Verkade-chocolatebar there. 'It costed you the pretty penny at 8 cents, but boy you did everything to save up for such a bar and you didn't mind cycling for so long just to get that bar' When she died that got me thinking about verything she experienced and must have been amazed about. She saw the rise of the automobile, radio, television, telephone, the washing machine, the colour-TV, the Boeing 747, computers, digital photocameras, phones you can take anywhere... At 88-years old or so, she got a computer: no internet, but she had so much fun playing a game of pinball: with her tongue out of her cheek she would try to go on for as long as possible. The Boeing 747 was strange for me as well: I only found out about that when my uncle died last year. He was the first in the family with a car, to buy a house and always dove right into new technology when it came available. He thus has made hours and hours of film (both reels and magnetic tapes) and endless photo-albums. It was so strange for me to see pictures of me and my dad, his sister, my grandma and grandpa on board the 747 as it was an introductory flight. I just took all those things for granted, even though I'm not a regular sky-traveller and have only been on a regular plane twice in my life so far) But yeah, the chocolate-bar story will stay with me forever and indeed, there's not really that much really new these days: it basically are all existing technologies that keep getting better.
Both my daughter's went to her concert in Austin last year. Met her after the concert. She took pictures with them sighed her autograph on their favorite lp of her. So sweet of her!
This album is very special to me. Back in 1995 I was in my Freshman year in college and I was a Division 1 Wrestler in the NCAA National Tournament. I won my Conference and had high hopes and expectations in becoming an All-American and National Champion. However, GOD had other plans for my life. I ended up losing the match that would have made me an All-American as a Freshman. I was CRUSHED... I went back in my room and listened to this album (Picture Perfect Morning 🌄 ) on repeat, shades down, blocking the sun... I was in a Depression... and it hurt so bad. I ended up transferring to another school the following year, but the one thing that was missing when I arrived... was myself. That summer, the Summer of 1996, I went down a dark path and I didn't even realize it. I was partying extremely hard in the Rave Scene in the 90’s but still graduated from a really good school, but my heart was still broken from what happened in the Hawkeye Arena at the University of Iowa, and I didn’t realize it. In fact, fast forward 24 years later is when I had a REAL reflection on my life and realized that my characteristics, my traits, my reckless lifestyle and way of living was all connected to one wrestling match 24 years earlier when my dreams were shattered. They were shattered because of the path I went down and I never achieved what I was expected to accomplish. So my life since then has been quite a journey, one you only hear about in dreams or fairytales, but it's my reality. So how does Edie Brickell fit into my Story, my Journey, my Life... I'm now a Minister and today is the first day since the 90’s that I've listened to this entire album. Not because I didn't want to, it was because it hurt to bad. But today, I'm no longer the same and I 've reunited with one of the most IMPORTANT albums of the Soundtrack of my life... NOW I'm FREE... GOD BLESS YOU EDIE, MAY HEAVEN SMILE UPON YOU... JESUS L❤️VES YOU... xoxoxo Thank You xoxoxo
I listened to this song as a child. When my first child was born, I would pull this music video up during night feedings. It made the experience of being a new mom even that more enjoyable. This song doesn't bring back to my childhood anymore... Instead it brings me back to when my son was a newborn.
Beautiful Song by Edie Brickell, it’s been more than 30 years since the release of the Windows 95 Operating System! With this song it’s impossible not to remember. It’s a relaxing song with a good support band! Of course, Edie is wonderful! With this song he has caught the Sign!
Teleportation is not a possibility. Hence RU-vid. Thanks for taking me back to the era of infatuations, Grade 10th Examination, Dilemmas. Loads of love to you Edie :)
Instantly fell in love with Edie Brickell when I first watched this video on my computer in the mid 90s... in addition Barry White at 2:02 ... goosebumps all over
Mo-Town revisited in the 90's. Not many originals are done in 60's mo-town fashion. This is really unique. She is mesmerizing. Both her voice and presence.
Wow, took me way back to my younger days, probably listen to it for more than 30 times just now, so smooth, so relaxing...great memories, .can't get enough of it. Yes Win95 CD, mind blowing at the time.
Good Times" You don't even have to try It comes easy for you The way you move is so appealing It could make me cry Go out driving with my friends In Bobby's big old beat up car I'm with a lot of people then I wonder where you are Good times, bad times, give me some of that Good times, bad times, give me some of that Good times, bad times, give me some of that I don't want to say goodbye Don't want to walk you to the door I spend a little time with you I want a little more Good times, bad times, give me some of that Good times, bad times, give me some of that Good times, bad times, give me some of that
Thank you Edie Brickell and Microsoft for making me realize that my old 486 PC needed new graphics and sound cards, more memory, and a faster processor to be able to play your video on a 13" CRT SVGA screen. Has it really been over a quarter of a century already?
I worked on the launch of Windows 95 to big box retailers back in the day. One of the most exciting and huge software releases. Pallets and pallets of it, but the nicest thing about it was seeing this video included and hearing this song. So great. Still relevant.
I used to watch this when I was 2 years old with my dad. (I am almost 27 right now) It was the first music I fell in love with, thanks to Windows 95. This is so precious to me... i could never be greatful enough. Thank you Edie Brickell. You made my life.
Used to listen to this song in my 1st computer (Windows95..??) back in 1996. Really glad to hear it again after more than 2 decades. Still got the computer that covered with dust in my store...too bad.
Being only 10 years old discovering this track by random on the otherwise boring windows cd was really something i'd never forget, this and the buddy holly song really defined my childhood.
shit man I was thinking the same thing about both these songs I was about 9 or 10 also my mom had just got a computer and I would beg her to watch the video and listen to the songs
Remember my first computer and it was also my first time listening to Edie! I watched this clip probably 100 times on that PC. Still my brain melts watching and hearing this!
I remember watching this over and over when I found out this in Win95 cd back in 1995 :D its absolutely beautiful chill song. Its shame it does not have more views :(
I remember loving this music video so much when I saw it on the Windows 95 CD... it was so exciting to experience multimedia that looked good for a change on a computer. Today's the 20th anniversary of the release of Windows 95. Can you believe it?
Dont know if it made it to the release CD at the time, but there were also trailers for a bunch of movies on the beta and pre-release CDs. I recall a trailer for M. Butterfly starring Jeremy Irons
I remember heard this song somewhere within my childhood time around 28 years ago (without any clue on its title nor its singer) and somehow I manage to find this great song again now in 2022, just by heard some phrases out of it. It's really almost magical, how good music can stay in your memory like...forever, even though you still don't understand what it is when you first heard it, but your memory unconsciously - automatically remember it.
I've been listening to this song for more than 10 years ago, and I'm turning 24. Practically know the lyrics by heart and I can see the video if I close my eyes. Never mind the years pass, the times I hear the song or the times I watch the video, I'm sure that doing so will always get me to remember the good times.
Hah, how many of us here watching in this in 2021 because Nostalgia Nerd brought us right back to Win95? I loved this song and the video back in the day. Funny thing is I barely even remember the weezer video.
I listened to this song time and time again (maybe 50 times) after I purchased my computer in 1995. It was epic in my mind. I loved how natural that Edie was in this video. This song blew my mind and so did she. Her voice and mannerisms. Hope she is doing well. And a great thanks to the video production of this song. Well done ... and I still bow down to all who were involved in creating this video. If the Democrats could incorperate this video in their fight to win this election would be an added benefit. But maybe I'm dreaming, but it's just a thought.
