Massive Internal Complications - Strawberry Wine (HQ) 

It's coming to 6 years now since I've posted this song and honestly the sole reason for it was to just have this record on YT in good quality for myself and a few others who appreciate this kind of music. Now I'm writing this because throughout the years thousands of people have listened to it and dozens have left comments.. Comments that I would never have thought to see; some people expressing being alone, others who loved the movie, some people reminiscing times when on substances and some who still accompany their days with it.. I have read so many comments that made me think and I just wanted to say stay strong you wonderful people and carry on through whatever comes your way - live it.

i have been there in nyc,lost a lot of friends to the addiction.but i am still here in 2022.grateful for another day.

just bought the cd of basketball diaries so i can listen to just this song 😭

I Feil inlove with basketball diaries when I first saw it

i remember playing this song in my empty dark apartment curled up in the corner contemplating whether i should live or die. It was a hard time cuz i had just got laid off my job and had no family around for support. This song is really meaningful to me cuz it hit me at the cross road of my life. i was with my job for over 11 yrs. It hit me hard and the thought of homelessness,drugs and crime was on the horizon of my future. This was many many yrs ago. Im glad i over came that and made a change. Thank u god!

i remember when i listen this sound in basket ball diaries for the first time and i listen again and again when i'im high on heroin and now im clean since 3 years and is the first time i listen it sober

How. Many. People. Know. This. Song. One. Of. Those. Treasures. 💫💫💫💥💥💥💯💯💯👍👍👍👍

I am alone.. not just me, we’re alone. Alone forever.

Thanks for sharing, I've loved the song since I heard it in the film "Basketball Diaries". Haunting song, it played through a very dramatic, traumatic scene. The film is based on the life of Author, Poet, Musician Jim Carrol.

Watched basketball diaries for the first time in a long time yesterday ! This scene always puts a lump in my throat ! Great upload thanks !

So underrated. I wonder if Dicaprio ever comes back to this amazing melody.

watched the movie again and came back here.. such an amazing song.

The movie BASKETBALL DIARIES is my ut-most favorable movie of all time, hands down. I can NEVER EVER get sick of that movie.

My dad has this movie and I've wanted to watch it since I was like 8 because I like DiCaprio but he told me it had nothing to do with basketball. 2 years ago I watched it by myself when I was 14 and I was like "oh my god this is a masterpiece" as someone who's never experienced poverty or drug abuse it gave me a really good understanding of how tuff life is

BEST SONG EVER.

That's a kick ass song I don't know how many times I've heard it thank you

I'm a recovering heroin and benzo addict, clean for 7 years, in addiction for 18 years. I've always tried to find this song, never knew the name, just heard it in this movie, ty for posting it.

Seductively haunting 🖤

Best song on the soundtrack

This is such an amazing song. Easily one of my favorites. Love the way it was incorporated into the film also, during the montage of Jim's heroin withdrawal period.

Used to listen to this when I was drunk or high on downers. Mostly when I injected heroin. Made me forget all of my problems. It doesn’t work anymore even when I inject heroin , I guess my problems are too much.

If the room spinning round.. I ain't never coming down!

I love this song😢 love u jim.

73 days clean. My main drugs were heroin , crack cocaine for the past 5 years and meth for the last year. Used to listen to this song all the time high af, this song gives me a weird feeling. Great song man

This song has a hypnotic quality to it I love to grieve to this song and as a heroin addict in active addiction it brings out feelings that I can't feel cause I'm always so numb

Simply LOVE this movie and the soundtrack!!!!!!!!!!

I spent a good 3 or 4 years addicted to shooting H and oxy. Suboxone is the only thing that’s helped me. I’ve been on it for almost ten years now, and I lead a pretty normal life. I have a career now and own a house on a few acres. But this movie and also the movie Candy just bring me apart every time. Anytime I try to kick the subs, it’s like I’m teleported right back to my late teens/early twenties, and I start thinking about things I haven’t thought of in years. It makes me realize that as much as I feel like I have my shit together, this bullshit is right around the corner. For anyone struggling, I feel you. I’ll be 32 tomorrow, and I still struggle. And for anyone thinking about getting into opiates, I swear to god it’s not worth it. No matter what you’re going through.

This song saved my life ! I hope it can save yours too , life is full of great blessings not just a 5 minute high that can mess you up for the rest of your life . There is a better you in this world you just have to find yourself .

Song is haunting

This song reminds me of my heroin days . Miserable days but a great song .Sober now thank the good Lord

How come this has so small views, absolutely love this song! :)

film was engrained into my adolescence, having been my older sis' obsession on VHS. never thought I'd connect to or relate to the scene of Ernie Hudson helpin Jim kick dope (origin of this tune). unfortunately, now I can relate all too well. brilliant song they used in trying to portray this shitty picture, so all lucky enough never to have experienced this part of life, have an idea of its torment. don't try heroin. ain't romantic and it never ends well.

been looking a long time for this ever since the movie came out

"and you want to stop, you really do, but it's like a dream. You can't stop dreams. They move in crazy pieces anyway they want to...and suddenly, you're capable of anything." - Basketball Diaries

...I play this song...in memory of dead and gones...human and mental....in my own person...no one else's... just speaking and sharing truth...only THOSE that know this song ...can relate..#BsktBllDiarIes#farawaydays❤

Every time I listen to this song I feel as if my mind goes back to those days when I used alprazolam, the sensation that makes you feel is something inexplicable, it was as if every sound twisted my mind

I wrote to both Adam Flax (Songwriter) and Salvador Poe (Guitarist) asking about the lyrics to the song....Adam replied back with the lyrics... "Thank you Erik for your fine message, very kind! That’s wonderful that you love this song so much…it’s been a gift for us as well. Here you go" - Strawberry wine Is a house on a hill Brothers of mine I remember you still Float away days Down a river of schemes If I could touch the taste or taste the smell I smell the scent of all the gifts you gave to me baby Like fruit off your tree And if the room is spinning round Then I ain’t never comin’ down Float away time If I have it to lose Lover of mine I remember you too I blew my mind On a boat in the sky And I could feel the way The way we laughed We laughed at life all over the place man Baby we got so high And if the room is spinning round Then I ain’t ever comin’ down Thanks again Erik! Cheers, Adam (Flax)

Play this for me when Im dead & smile for me , No More Tears !!

What a great song! Thanks very much for posting it.

"after all those beautiful trips, this is one of the bad ones"

This song.. makes me stoned...

Just fell in love with this song 😍💖 running on my head every sec 😇

Man, the 90's were the shit. We really did peak as a species then.

RIP big bro.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this!!! I used to listen to this as a clinically depressed teenager and contemplate dying. I had The Basketball Diaries soundtrack as a kid and can not, for the life of me, understand why it is not on any streaming music service. I’m traveling across the country (3,200 miles) and this was the only song I wanted to hear as I drive through the dark, snowy mountains. 😭

This whole soundtrack is amazing.

Procurei muito por essa música. Finalmente a encontrei! Obrigado. Abraços, do Brasil!

Listening to this while knowing you have an addiction problem is so painful

The basketball diaries 😍 omg it's my favorite movie, i think... Maybe after Gilbert grape... or before i don't now 😆

This is my jam 💯🖤🖤🖤

I turned 18 in 1995

Thankyou sooooo much for posting this song I couldn't find it anywhere......going through withdrawals now....I feel this song in me! 🤗

COME ON iTunes; enable this as a download! People will gladly pay for it!

Man that's so soothing, and kind of oldschool, hippyish :)

Reggie!!

It’s amazing to me that an awesome song like this can have so little views...Yet the latest pop song that sounds exactly like the one released before it can have millions of views?!

Great Song! Great Movie!

R.I.P. Mr. Carroll!!!!!!!!

"The Basketball Diaries" ✨️👌

My best interpretation of the lyrics... Strawberry wine Is a house on a hill Brothers of mine I remember you still Float away days Down a river of schemes If I could touch the taste Then taste the smell The smell, the scent Oh the peace you gave to me, baby Like the fruit of your tree And if the room is spinning 'round I ain't ever comin’ down And as the room is spinning 'round I ain't ever comin' down Throw away time If I have it to lose Brother of mine I remember you too I blew my mind On the boat in the sky I can feel the way, That way we laughed, and laughed and loved all over the place baby... And we got so high And if the room is spinning 'round Then I'm never comin’ down And as the room is spinning 'round Then I ain't ever comin’ down No, I ain't never comin’ down And if the room is spinning ‘round Then I ain't never comin' down No I'm never comin' down... No! And if the room is spinning 'round Then I ain't never comin' down

I kicked heroin about 25 times . I uesd for 30 yrs. I ain't be no joke. God bless those who are still addicted. I am praying for you all🙏💙🙏

I watched this in the summer of 2020 and my drunk dad was with me at the time. And one night I decided to watch this and it really put me in a better mood like watching movies like when your in a messed up household is a whole vibe idc

Great soundtrack

I too fell in love with Basketball diaries since the first time I saw it.

I love this song

Melhor música do filme ❤️

Great movie and great song

I ain't ever coming down....

BEAUTIFUL

0:57 the first time I heard this I thought he was talking backwards and this part 0:57 is that if you hear it in another way it’s stuck in your head every time you sing It sounds like ‘ if I could touch the taste the smell the scent you gave to me baby’

Been Funeral song mine since 17yrs old in 1994

Just an amazing song nothing compares to it

why isn't song on spotify? or anywhere for that matter, never watched this movie but i love this song :(

1/29/2021 if you're ever alone try your best to become your own bestfriend ❤ stay strong fellow humans....

Beautiful song

me recordo,do Basketball Diaries... quem não?

Me and my mom used to listen to this off an old cd I mixed man I miss her

When he decide fucks it, destroys the place and takes any money he can find n runs out to score. This song itself has beautiful imagery but matched with that scene.... Damn

'' You know my father, my friend Bobby was the best and he's dead, there no justice my father ! ".

That song is equal as "the day after cocaine" hahaha

Esa musica me da motivación ❤

Amo esta película, por que te demuestra las consecuencias de consumir drogas, como puedes afectar a tus seres queridos tu futuro y tus acciones tu apariencia y cambiar tus inicios y valores, esta película te hace ver como se viven en las drogas, como se ve a las personas que lo consumen, a la gente rodeada en esos lugares de las drogas, personas desesperadas, deprimidas, asesinos, las drogas cambian tu vida para mal, el soundtrack que utilizan en esta película es Magnifica y va de acuerdo con las situaciones y tema de la película. y la actuación de Leonardo DiCaprio es perfecta y me deja sin palabras, hace transmitir mucho con el personaje Jim Carroll, tanto personalidad y desarrollo del personaje, y si no has visto esta película te recomiendo verla, te hará reflexionar mucho.

Nice !!

Back when DiCaprio was an actor

muy drogado escuchando esta canción ✌️

-- why do I instantly need a smoke as soon as the intro starts???

Leo is so smoking hot at this age.. those boyish looks and locks. He was 19, but had a baby face, yet these cunning eyes and attitude.

100% clean

FINNALY

Smoke kush to this song

Ritorno dal nulla, scena del astinenza, musica e scena migliore del film

SPOTİFYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Einfach mal kommentieren, weil ich weiß wie oft ich hier noch vorbeikomme haha
