Some 13 years ago I sat beside a lady on a plane headed south.. she asked what music I liked and introduced me to Jack Johnson(he's her favorite). We shared her headphones as two complete strangers listening in harmony for hours. If you ever happen to read this I'm still listening and thank you
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In separate bowl, mix together egg, milk, vegetable oil and bananas. Stir flour mixture into banana mixture; batter will be a little lumpy. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop batter onto pan, using about 1/4 cup for each pancake. Cook until pancakes are golden brown on both sides. Ingredients: 1 cup of all purpose flour 1 tablespoon of sugar 2 teaspoons of baking powder ¼ teaspoon of salt 1 egg, beaten like it owes you money 1 cup milk 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil or melted butter 2 medium ripe bananas, mashed Serves 6 people
Jack Johnson writes children's songs for adults, if that analogy makes any sense. There is a simplicity and innocence to his songs that are great. It's like being a kid again.
Who's here after watching Twice's interview where Mina introduces this wonderful song. At first, I was just checking the song but I ended up loving it. It's so refreshing😍
try to listen to 90s to 2000 songs theres a lot of hidden treasure artist with this kind of genre like jason mraz , music nowadays are full of pop electronic dance ,
My best friend died 4-21-19 (Easter Sunday) .. This was one of his favorite songs.. I use to make fun of him for listening to this.. Now I listen all the time.. I love this song and I get it.. He loved the vibe and so do I.. RIP Eddie,love you man
My friend Michael used to sing this song all the time. He sounded just like Jack Johnson to me when he played. It’s the anniversary of him passing today and listening to this is the closest I can get to hearing him again. Thank you for uploading this and I hope everyone has a lovely time listening to it, I know I did.
after reading this comment section, it’s crazy how jack johnson has had such a massive and touching impact on so many peoples lives and sad experiences, what a magnificent artist

Can't you see that it's just rainin' Ain't no need to go outside But baby You hardly even notice When I try to show you this Song is meant to keep you Doin' what you're supposed to Wakin' up too early Maybe we could sleep in Make you banana pancakes Pretend like its the weekend now We could pretend it all the time Can't you see that it's just rainin' There ain't no need to go outside Just maybe Halaka ukulele mama made a baby Really don't mind the practice Cause you're my little lady Lady lady love me Cause I love to lay here lazy We could close the curtains Pretend like there's no world outside We could pretend it all the time And can't you see that it's just rainin' There ain't no need to go outside Ain't no need ain't no need Mmm, mmm, mmm Can't you see can't you see Rain all day and I don't mind But the telephone's singing ringing It's too early don't pick it up We don't need to We got everything we need right here And everything we need is enough Just so easy when the whole world fits inside of your arms Do we really need to pay attention to the alarm Wake up slow Mmm wake up slow But baby You hardly even notice When I try to show you this Song is meant to keep you From doin' what your supposed to Wakin' up too early Maybe we could sleep in Make you banana pancakes Pretend like it's the weekend now We could pretend it all the time Can't you see that it's just rainin' There ain't no need to go outside Ain't no need, ain't no need Rain all day and I really really really don't mind Can't you see? Can't you see? We gotta wake up slow
@@Natsukichr-vl4bx I sing a lot and a lot of times I just post the lyrics on the RU-vid video so I don't have to look up the lyrics every time I play the song on RU-vid.
@@inyeeta2029 mina is a member of a Korean girl group named TWICE and apparently on their recent interview she said banana pancakes is still her favorite song

Before my Dad left me we used to listen to Jack all the time. After he left I wanted to leave everything behind so I haven't listened to this song until now. Listening to it for the first time in a while made me cry but it was out of happiness. I have slowly been letting a lot of the things that we used to do back into my life and it makes me feel a lot better :)
Hey bro, everything will get better. Don’t look on the time that you guys had and be mad that you can’t have it again, but be happy that it happened. I’m sure he loves u.
From stranger to stranger. Better times are around the corner. I’m not too sure on how long your hallway is but once you hit that corner. It is brighter days
as a person who’s dad left as a child, came back, and recently left again, don’t let his absence dictate the rest of your life and your joy. we survive alone - we shouldn’t rely on someone else to decide our own happiness.
Awh my dad used to sing this to my little sister to put her to sleep and I would always wake up from my nap when my dad was singing this and I would always sing with him... Those good times.
I haven’t heard this song in years, this really reminded me of happier times for me. I’m going through a lot and this really brought me back to when me and my mom would listen to music for hours in road trips and there was no arguing or fighting.
I envision myself in the future one morning waking up before my future wife on a day off while it rains to get up and make banana pancakes while this song plays and then go on to relax at home the rest of the day. 🌳
I put this song in a playlist for "Breakfast (Dancing in the Kitchen)" ☺️ I woke up to a thunderstorm and made breakfast with this song! It's my first day of vacation, so I'm making whipped coffee and zucchini bread today. I love sitting on the porch with thunder, rain sounds, and birds chirping 🌧🐦 really compliments this song!
This song always makes me feel so nostalgic and a little homesick, I always think of my brother since he would always play this song on his guitar and sing. A wonderful song to calm my anxiety at 1am and make me feel safe. 10/10 would recommend
Reminds me of the time I met my now wife... Sat in my Nan's spare bedroom with a small Hi-FI belting this on repeat.. 11 years married and together for 15.. going stronger with the music which is love!

My dad played this song for me when I was 12, it stayed with me and now I play it on rainy days and when I actually do make banana pancakes. I hope my son comes to love it just as much as I do.
My sister used to sing this to me when i was 5 or 6. She was in high school and i thought she was just the coolest person in the world. My older sister went down a bad path. She got into hard drugs, alcohol, disappearing for months or weeks at a time and always returning with the sweet promises and apologies. I always believed her. She went into an intensive rehab program for two years and got married in July 2019. I hope she's changed for the better. I haven't seen her for almost two and a half years. She left my mom a long text about the toxicity of our family and blocked her everywhere. I'm almost 16 and i dont think my older sister would even recognize me anymore. She refuses to visit me because it means seeing our mom. I miss you so much. This was our song. One day we'll reunite when im older but the time goes so slowly without her.
I was once like your sister MJ. I cleaned up my act and got myself back to something that resembles "normal" living. I am 100% sure that your sister still loves you and misses you as much as you miss her. Sometimes shit happens that's hard to explain but tomorrow is a new day and you can look forward to reuniting with your sister soon. Until then take care and enjoy your youth as much as you can.
I'm in my mid 30s and my sweet younger brother is 18. This breaks my heart and I'm so sorry for you. I'm also sorry for your sister and her situation, but I especially empathize with you. I wish you had the older sister you deserve. I'm just as sad that she can't be that for you. I hope you find each other again. :/
This song has been so helpful for me. The first time I had an anxiety attack this was the first song I listened to to calm me down. Now, every time I have an anxiety attack I listen to it and I am able to calm down. Something about how calming it is... this song needs to get more recognition.
This happened to me exactly!! Its the first result that showed up and had tons of views, so I though it was an old-time recipe 😅 I've fallen in love with this song though, and even though it's not even close to my usual genre it brightens me up so much!!
I'm crying from the nostalgia. Wow just wow. This song has so many feelings. I found this at 3am. My friends woke up and are now wondering why I'm crying.
A friend of mine once said this song was the epitome of her life. She passed away a few years ago. Julez you had a hard life and I loved the time I spent with you.
My dad played this for me and my brother when we were kids, and I'm planning, during summer, to get up early, open the windows and doors, play this, and wake my dad up so we can chill together. He doesn't really like pancakes, but he likes bananas, so I'll get him some and make myself some pancakes so we can eat together😁 It'll be a trip down memory lane lol

I remember listening to this song when I was younger, it always made me feel happy and my dad would always play this in the car. My brother learned to play it on the guitar at some point and would always sing this song and some of the Avett Brothers songs. This song always brings me back to better times when life was simple.
wife and i bought this cd before heading off on our first holiday as a married couple. played it over and over, surfing up and down NSW. learned every song on the guitar. 26 years later, got a duet gig tonight, and this is one of my chosen songs to play. love it.
this song came out right before i was born, and whenever i was fussy my dad would play this and i’d stop. it’s always been my favorite, and just a special thing with me and my dad. he still sings it to me sometimes, or will just play it when i’m stressed or upset about something.
Mac Patefield raised on good music is so big on your perspective of things at times when u go back and listen to the songs u were raised on glad u found Jack Johnson he is awesome
I love this song, I listen to this when I think about my sunshine... Our one year is in 18 days and I can't wait to see him someday, he's everything to me, I love him so much, he's my one and only, my soulmate, my little purple to my red... 💜❤💜❤💜❤💜❤
@@henryherbert there was an interview with a female Kpop group (Twice) and she mentioned that this was her fave song. Hence, why people are mentioning her in the comments
It’s 2008, I’m listening to this with my mum in the far going fishing. Now it’s 2021 and I’m taking my own kids fishing, listening to this song, reminiscing about the best times in life. Memories last a lifetime people make as many as you possibly can!
my baseball and football coach and his son were just in a terrible accident involving a mac truck hitting them from the passenger side. This song and album helps so much with everything bad. For just a few minutes I can forget everything and just calm down and relax. I love this album
Colin Davis stay cool Colin and I’ve heard plenty criticism about this song ,these ‘people’ have no life experience,no manners,even less intelligence.For what I’ve know of people in plenty different countries I can’t think of one,not one,where this music wouldn’t be appreciated It says a hellova lot about themselves rather their derogatory comments. Nothing NICE TO SAY;WELL KEEP IT KNITTED(YIR GOB) The World,needs more harmony,less criticism and more LPHMHIKNTLC 💚☮️😂🤣
I listened to Jack Johnsons a lot when I was little, and this randomly came on in a Playlist. Brings me back the early mornings and jumping on my moms bed
When I was little I used to always play Jack Johnson and Jason Mraz music. I had a pretty rough childhood with my dad being very abusive towards my family. When I felt depressed and just tired of everything I would listen to this music. There's just something so peaceful and therapeutic about this kind of music that just pulls you away from everything and helps you to just relax and breathe. Still love his music to this day.
Every time I hear this song, I think of my best friend from high school. We used to sing this together all the time. We used to do everything together. He was such a great guy, even introduced me to Jack Johnson when this song first came out. I really miss him. We stayed in touch after high school for some years but talked less and less because we moved so far apart. Eventually we just lost contact with each other. I think about him sometimes. Wonder what he is up to. Wonder if he found happiness in his life.
I found this because of my dad, he liked playing the guitar and would always play this in the morning when we made breakfast, after he and my mom broke up and he went to live somewhere else, I sang this to myself during the morning and even started practicing playing the guitar so I can show him. This was my comfort song for so long and I still listen to it to this day. Thanks dad. 😊❤️
My dad would always sing this for me when I was young and had trouble sleeping. Now that I'm older, I still listen to this. Even when my dad's not with me, I can always have this music to remind me of him.
Some random guy in an ihop recommended this to me (maybe it had something to do with the bananas in my strawberry banana French toast) really love this song. Thanks, random ihop guy!
This guy's music is TIMELESS. It's been YEARS since I heard this song yet it still maintains its potency. Jack Johnson is a gift to the world. You will recognize this sooner or later. He's got a fan for life!
This song holds such a special spot in my heart. Growing up my Mom and I had a very rocky relationship. But when we had our best moments, wed either slow dance or pick up the pace. And every time it was a rainy day, we always started with this song.❤️❤️
I honestly love this song my ex girlfriend showed me this when we dated 2 years ago but I showed up at her house the other day out of no where so we went for a drive and I played this song on my phone and as soon as it started playing she broke into tears and i started crying myself. I honestly miss her so much, I still love her and hope things might happen between us wish me luck guys!
Es increíble que Mina haya hablado de esta canción. Hace casi 10 años que escuche por primera vez a Jack Johnson y fue una agradable sorpresa que ella conociera la canción. :3 :3
This is one of those few gems that make me feel nostalgic for a time that never actually happened for me. It just reminds me of when I was younger and didnt have a thought/care in the world. Thank you
I remember I had an iPod when I was younger and this was a free song on iTunes or Apple Music. I would listen to it all the time. It’s just so nice and relaxing. Just a nice vibe to enjoy during the summer morning.
i used to hear my dad in the living room listening to this and other jack johnson songs when i was younger and my dad just told me about jack johnson a couple days ago, so nostalgic and great music.
I remember when I was little my "step" dad would sing this to me before bed. To this day I still think of him as my biological dad. This was my favorite song, and just last night I remembered it. Just listening to it brings tears to my eyes. Love you dad :)
My first crush introduced me to this song and we used to listen to it when going to school together every morning. Now every time I listen to it I always think about him and my current love interest :)
11 years ago, when I was graduating kindergarten, we were each given a CD with a video or photos and such of our kindergarten year. I haven’t forgotten this very song (along with a few others of Jack Johnson’s like: Upside Down 💙) that played over those moments, it makes me nostalgic and a bit sad knowing that I’m graduating high school next year… 🏙️
This songs and Jack’s music has gotten me through every rough moment in this year, whenever I was stressed or exhausted or just wanted to escape I went to my room and got that same sensation I get when I’m in the ocean; a sense of peace, safety, and happiness! Thanks Jack!
My father plays this to wake me up around 6-7 A.M. on weekends. I only see him every other weekend (I’m a minor, split up parents, lives with mom) and considering current circumstances I can’t see him at all right now. But listening to this makes me happy. Think of him and all the good times I had with him, and hopefully those to come in the future.
Jack Johnson’s way with words is so beautiful to the ears and is flawless! It’s like watching Lionel Messi dribble a football or score a free kick such masterpieces these two can create and are such incredible people I’m glad I have these two legends cemented in my hearts for how they are and the inspiration they give me to continue to lead with love in anything I do and remain humble I love you Jack Johnson! My girlfriend showed me your music a week ago and after the first hour I learned talk of the town and she had a tough morning the next day and I held her and sang your song and her sadness wiped away immediately I haven’t listened to country or corridos this whole week just been listening and trying to learn all my favorites from you but I love them all! You’re the best! Thank you for blessing my ears and making my childhood a great one I wish I could’ve thanked you sooner! My children will watch curious George for sure such a beautiful show and your music is unmatched you’re forever in my heart and God bless you!✝️😭💯👑❤️
