The magic of this song is that it was instant euphoria and nostalgia when I first heard it in 95’ in college. Now in 2022 the nostalgia and longing I feel when I listen to this song is to relive the 90s when my life was full of ambition and youth. Simply one of the greatest songs ever written.
@@sebastianmatarelli5602 4sure! I turned 16 in Aug. '79, 1of those in=betweeners [too young for baby boomer, born b4 Gen.X started] and that is the beauty & genius of this song - it ''feels'' like the atmosphere of the '70s, yet it was born in the dark waves of the '90s grunge rock revival. Believe me, it's a cool joy to have ridden both those waves of sound!
growing up in the 70s & experiencing those nostalgic feelings in the 90s, knowing EXACTLY what he was talking about in our late twenties.. and still feeling it in our fifties.
My first ever Pumpkins gig. Went tripping. Idiocy! But my memory of it is as crystal clear as this HD version here .A band opening for themselves was the most amazing thing I'd ever witnessed. Hahaha First time I'd noticed D'Arcy too. She was as much a revelation as Jimmy's drum orchestra!
@@donnyblondy8506 funny.. .if you had said the 90s I keep quiet you said of all time. That simply isn't true. My opinion might stink yours smells like ass. I would be surprised if this a top 100 song all time.
Great performance!!! Acoustic and lovely harmonies! One of my favs from childhood!! Still amazing! Sad these newer generations aren’t growing up to such amazing and real music…
Why am I sad to see this, yes because I miss being able to watch concerts again, jumping around together, and screaming and having fun together.. without gadgets and without worrying about viruses
Shakedown 1979 Cool kids never have the time On a live wire right up off the street You and I should meet Junebug skipping like a stone With the headlights pointed at the dawn We were sure we'd never see an end to it all And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues And we don't know just where our bones will rest To dust I guess Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below Double-cross the vacant and the bored They're not sure just what we have in store Morphine city slipping dues down to see That we don't even care as restless as we are We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts And poured cement, lamented and assured To the lights and towns below Faster than the speed of sound Faster than we thought we'd go Beneath the sound of hope Justine never knew the rules, Hung down with the freaks and ghouls No apologies ever need be made I know you better than you fake it to see That we don't even care to shake these zipper blues And we don't know just where our bones will rest To dust I guess Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below The street heats the urgency of now As you see there's no one around
Strange story...back in 96 saw the RHCP's in L.A...after the show we went to a Hollywood Bar- Restaurant called Jones where a lot of grunge/alternative musical bands hung out...me and girlfriend were having dinner and who walks in Anthony Kiedis and Jimmy Chamberlain...a few minutes later Jimmy Chamberlain comes up to us and asks if he can sit with us until his party arrives...said okay...he was really quiet two minutes later out pizza comes and he asks if he can have a slice...lol we saw um okay ..then he said thanks and went to sit with his buddies...years later I read he was on drugs back then which kinda made sense..love the 90s good times
È proprio una grande corsa incontro alla vita , che ti vuole lasciare indietro e solo in un ricordo e tu ...dici NO , ti porto con me in questa canzone ... grazie S P ...
