Music video for the third single off of the album, "Happy In Galoshes" by Scott Weiland. One of the best videos (and songs) out there. Hopefully this single will see a good amount of radio play. (C) 2009 Softdrive Records, LLC.
Not really too strange at all.. The way I feel about it is every stage in life, good or bad, up or down.. In this case for me, Scott's lyrics and vocals have been there Every.Single.Time. to be the soundtrack to the amazing things and to give me the strength to fight and pull through the hard times. Hell, even just to get up and get going in the morning or to relax to and enjoy life with his amazing voice to go along with the memories. SO whether good or bad I feel like he's always been there along the way and coincides with those memories and times. So, it is very easy to get emotional or feel love, loss or grief for Scott because his beautiful music had such a major impact whether you realize it or not on the most important things in your life and the music when you close your eyes can bring you right back to those exact beautiful moments. On the other hand, it can remind you of not so great times that the music helped you pull through and be stronger or it can remind you of sad times... Overall the short answer is Scott's voice and words were with you more than you may realize and emotions 99 out of 100 times run your thinking, heart, actions and the dynamic of having someone you never met being there in your ears leading to your heart is a very, VERY powerful thing. Scott was always sweet and appreciative when I or saw somebody else tell him how much his music meant to them or me and how, "Your music has been the soundtrack to my life...". I think that overwhelmed him a bit as he is very shy and bi-polar which led to him thinking he was next to nothing a lot. So in Scott's particular case he didn't FULLY realize how much he was loved and is now missed and was very bitter at the industry and the underbelly of being a celebrity and rockstar but the reality is he was and a very beautifully talented one at that. I still miss him so much everyday, I am just SO thankful we have the likes of RU-vid and such to see and hear him anytime, anywhere, always.. It's just sad to know his wife and kids are left behind and not knowing he is at peace in his studio doing what he loves making music or spending time with family and that no more new albums are coming.. Anyway, I totally relate... Hope this may be an answer to your statement/feelings.. : )
I'm glad others recognize this. I'm in awe that he had it still in him to complete songs like "Hotel Rio" in his last years. I'd have loved to hear how all that came about, if it was hip rock marketed towards hipsters or if it was sheer Scott doing himself only (no considerations for marketing) as usual.
If only more people had valued the human over the Artistry. 💔 Everything was ‘for the fans’, to the point of excluding all other life priorities, including survival.
This video shows the whimsical side of Scott Weiland. You can also hear a Bob Dylan and/or Tommy Petty influence on Scott's vocals. I've always said he was a "vocal chameleon".
@@ckramer1964 Yes, he had it all as a frontman. I wish I would have seen him in concert with STP. I was planning to on their "next" tour... the one that will sadly never happen. );
@@musicalone9689 I'm sorry you didnt get to see him. I've seen STP 8 times. 5 with #ScottWeiland, 1 with Chester and 2 times with #JeffGutt. Scott is by far my favorite and all time #1, but I do like Jeff the new singer!
It's a "cheesy" video, and that is what was attempted and succeeded. I find the video has a charming cuteness that accurately portrays infatuation. Just shows the fun, childish energy love can exert. Saying it looks cheap and crappy is odd, because anyone who knows STP, Revolver, and anything with Scott, knows he could have a nicer video if he wanted it.
Everyone needs to stop being in shock that he is dead and start celebrating his music and songs he wrote. Get over it already it was bound to happen .play his music and he will live on !
Scotts got such a provacative voice and persona that his new stuff needs to be listened too at least once.... but when he performs Sex Type Thing with STP wow! Makes a girl's mind wander ;)
this is the healthiest he had looked in a look time. rem seeing this and thinking he's finally getting better... damage had been done. it's unreal how much damage the body can tk b4 dying.
this song is great, and it has a kinda new country feel to it, and I dig it. Scott could sing any style of music presented to him, it is such a shame that all we have of him is his past now Godspeed My Brother ...
For Scott To Be One Person He Was So Many Different People In His Music And He Had So Many Sounds And He Had A Voice And Sound For Everything And He The King Of Cover Songs Other Than Chris Cornell
I literally finished "Not Dead and Not For Sale" 2 days before the tragic news. Gave me goosebumps. You're right, it's just an incredible, beautiful book. At once happy and sad, much like our deceased friend.
he was a brilliant songwriter and a genius yea he lost his battle to his addiction and demons but he left behind a good amount of legacy and amazing artistry and master work for us to listen to to velvet revolver to stone temples in my opinion he was a brilliant badass vocalist and emotional beast of a frontman rip scott youl be missed
This looks like his dream of what it would be if someone took him out of his missery, the kind of girl he wishes for, someone funny, who plays the guitar and love simple things, I wish you had meet someone like that when you needed or maybe someone just told him to try some commercial shit xD... I guess we´ll never know... RIP
los vimos junto a mi señora y a 700 fans en el teatro la cúpula del parque ohiggins en Santiago de Chile, estuvo buenísimo, se notaba que estaba bien, lo veía siempre en su pagina de Facebook publicando tonteras y se veía feliz, no creo que haya muerto por sobredosis, creo que fue un ataque cardiaco mientras dormía y se fue, tengo mucha pena, pero de alguna manera esta fecha será recordada en su honor y su gran legado musical. gracias Scott.
+catherine hola Sorry Catherine, just saw this now.. Unfortunately he's "punching the clock" in about 90% of his shows when he tours these days.. He's over-touring and admittedly doesn't even like doing it but needs to make a living and support his family.. The drugs and cigarettes have seemed to caught up a bit on his voice but I'm still thankful for all the amazing music he has put out through the years.. Can't imagine my life without all of it! Glad you got to see him! Where was it at? Also, don't know how big of a fan you are but I'm sure I have a BUNCH of songs you haven't heard if you'd like me to send them to you! : )
Man...Scotty, I wish you'd have seen what others saw. Like Craig, you were dodging one thing, only to be taken out by the one you thought was safe. RIP.
I was/am both a huge STP, Scott Weiland, Talk Show, Velvet Revolver, Army of Anyone fan... and will continue to be. Thank you to Scott, Dean, Robert, Eric and everyone. Beautiful
grandiosa rola unpoko diferente alo ke a echo pero no importa el es un artista, solo esta expresando lo que siente en forma de musica, una persona es un cumulo de emociones, no siempre va a ser la misma. bravo scott por no ser serrado y ver otros angulos
I’ve never seen it heard this before! And all I did thru the whole thing was smile! I loved it! Scott looked like such a romantic that really only wanted simple love. RIP you beautiful man
Scott Weiland one of the most outstanding and talented front men of our time! Incredible repertoire w/STP etc. Thank you Scott and Rest In Peace🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻☮️☮️☮️☮️❤️
This would have been a billboard top 50 song if it was written in 1998 and if scott hadn't sabotaged OR (public relations) his solo career has been hindered by his questionable past and caused the media, critics, and radio stations to be hesitant to promote him due to his track record. love the guy to death but he fucked his career up pretty bad
Conoció a su primer esposa Janina cuando ella tenía 16 años; ella le inspiró canciones muy duras como sour girl y atlanta.Se divorciaron cuando él más la necesitaba, pero se entiende que tampoco pudo ser fácil para una persona y más aún, tan joven como lo era ella, lidiar con la bipolaridad y adicción de él. Esa etapa, tal vez, no la ha olvidado del todo; pareciera que él recrea una experiencia (no una fantasía de gran presupuesto) y el deseo de que el matrimonio funcionara, como todos.
@velvetpilot2008 I have gotten some of Scott Weiland's lesser known songs played on the radio in the Philippines. My girlfriend is an on-air personality and I turned her on to his music.
