best movie ever most of the people dont understand it but its a masterpiece for my generation and this movie had a big impact in the rock culture of my country.
i know this might sound unfair , but is it just a coincedence that Brandon Lee, Scott Weiland and Chester Bennington all died , after being associated with the Stone Temple Pilots??? And arent the Deleo Brothers ( Robert and Dean ) of Italian heritage??? hmmmm I find it rather interesting . Maybe Brandon Lee, Scott Weiland and Chester Bennington were made offers they refused and then look what happened to them 😖😐Just something to think about
😏😁 You never know , what kind of shady music business deals these 3 gentlemen made or didnt make with the Stone Temple Pilots's Dean & Robert Deleo brothers lol, I think Eric Kretz didnt know what was going on or decided to keep his mouth shut
@@sonicjet7759 if scott weiland's death surprised you, you weren't paying attention. what made him special is what also took his life. for many artists they wouldn't exist to us without what also killed them.
I was in mourning for a LONG time when I heard he passed. STP is still my favorite band of my generation. We had some great music when I was in High School.
@@jsl02008yup. And hopefully it's worth a fuck. Coz I'm gonna be PISSED if i don't get to ride a giant tsunami. This end of the world shit better not be a damn RIP off or some dollar tree knock off
This is probably my single favorite tune from the “grunge” era…and that’s not a flippant statement. I started listening to this stuff in 1991 and followed it from Green River, The Melvins and Alice In Chains all the way until its conclusion with bands like Bush and Silverchair. There’s something about this tune. Even when I was a kid, I recognized its “nostalgic” melody, its hugely dynamic production and the stellar performance from each band member. The entire Purple album is a masterpiece but this song stands above the rest…in my opinion, at least.
I am a die hard Pearl Jam fan. I always have been and I always will be, but Big Empty is the best song of the era. Alive, Teen Spirit, Outshined, Cannonball: all great songs. None of them had the understated greatness that this tune had. I think this is the greatest pop rock song of all time.
I was 16 when this movie came out, I was living in a rented farmhouse with a bunch of teen goths and artists. The farm was a hour from town and I remember many nights driving back from the club at 5 am with the sun peaking over the horizon, the crow soundtrack played on the cars cassette till it broke. This song was a dreamy break in the hard pace of the album. Closing my eyes now years later I remember sitting in the backseat warm in camaraderie of my friends.
I'm a Hip-Hop head at heart, but I recently watched the movie The Crow and the song Big Empty from the soundtrack (by Stone Temple Pilots) has me on a 90s grunge revival. I was 11 in 1991 and I lived through the grunge days from 1990 to like 1997 when I was in middle school and high school. I vividly remember Black Hole Sun and the video on MTV. I never realized how much I loved the works of Chris Cornell and Scott Weiland. So many of these songs bring back memories, but I didn't understand them back then because I hadn't lived and experienced the pain of life. Going back and doing my research on this music and these bands now I realize not only how much I like 90s grunge music and so many of these bands, but also how amazing Chris Cornell was, how much I like his music and didn't even realize it, how many people he influenced, how many groups and super-groups he was a part of (Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, Audioslave). I never realized him and Eddie Vetter were together in Temple of the Dog. I never knew that he had a solo album produced by Hip Hop producer Timbaland. I never knew that he took over as lead singer of Rage Against the Machine and they became Audioslave, all I knew was that the few times I heard an Audioslave song I had to run over to see what it was because it had such an amazing sound. Him and Scott Weiland (Stone Temple Pilots, Velvet Revolver). I'm going through alot of things and having a tough time with life right now and I really feel a strong connection to the music of Chris Cornell, Scott Weiland, and Kurt Cobain. All 3 committed suicide. Maybe the best music only comes from those who see past the sugar coated top layer of the life people pretend to lead. People who feel the deepest pain. I don't know. Just thinking out loud. Rest in piece Chris, Scott, and Kurt, and thank you, so much.
I'm the same age as you, (11 in '91), & I have been clinically depressed since age 12, officially diagnosed at 16. If you are depressed or feeling down DON'T listen to The Crow soundtrack. It's gorgeous for sure, but it also helps ppl embrace their sadness, (if they have it), which is bad news for a depressed person. Believe me; I've been on 3 different anti-depressants with various dosages since I was 16. I LOVE The Crow, but I only listen to the soundtrack when I'm doing well. ❤😘🥰
@@lindseychan5493 100% music can control ur emotions to much n ppl can drown or I mean get pulled down by the music n whatever they digest with their eyes n ears
That sucks. It definitely takes a special kind of sicko to destroy a child like that and the fact that he associated such an amazing song with suck a disgusting act just makes it worse. I was never consistently molested but, I was beaten and also was in some pretty confusing sexual situations with adults and having triggers that bring back the horrors for you but, mean nothing to other people makes it even harder.
This song will forever be attached to this movie and vice versa of which both of each’s star are no longer with us. Immediately begged my mom to purchase purple from her BMG catalog (damn I feel old 😳) after seeing The Crow in theaters. RIP SCOTT WEILAND. RIP BRANDON LEE. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Brandon Lee, you were taken from us way too soon. The Grim Reaper was so mean. Why take away people who are so good hearted from us? WHY? R.I.P. Brandon Lee - you're legacy will live on forever.
I remember reading the graphic novels at 10 bc my uncle was 4 yrs older n just like a brother we loved all the same things n especially when this movie came out. He passed away in 2014 n I miss him every day. I was so devastated I wanted to join him n my father n grandfather. I was going through complicated grief but luckily I reached out for help n didn't go through with what I had planned. I tattooed It can't rain all the time with a crow on my collar bone in his honor...n of course to remind myself it's okay I'll see them all again when it's my time.
We were fortunate. We had some good music brother. I'm about 5 years older than you. STP released "core" when I was in 9th grade I believe. Or the summer after my 8th grade year. Some where in there. they were just......awesome. There's no other word for this band.
I went on my first date with my first love to see this movie! 1994 was a year of firsts for me and STP songs, especially this one, bring on the nostalgia. Nothing compares to the 90s grunge and alternative bands, they had a rawness that I felt then and can still feel decades later.
Im only 13 and love this type of music, was basically born into it. I was on a 9 hour car drive and woke up to this song playing, almost cried. Its an amazing song, and so is the movie!
Can't beleive they're releasing a new Crow movie this year. It's got me revisiting the old soundtrack and down a rabbit hole of incredible songs that shaped my teenage years. There will never be another Scott Weiland or another Brandon Lee. RIP you beautiful souls...we still miss you 💔
This thing lulls you in with a melodious feel, nice and safe, then crushes your ribs in the refrain with both the vocals and the guitar. Then it does it again. And again.
Best song ever !! I still get butterflies watching and or listening.I fell in love with STP in 93. And still in love and listening. Scott will never be forgotten. Rest Easy my friend...☮️✝️💟
For the longest time I've always wondered the name of this song. There was just something so cathartic if that's the word I wanna use, about listening to it. Best way I could describe it is this rusty, soothing old rock tune and time and time again, I failed to catch the name of it on the radio, always missing what the DJ said. Then I think it was when I was 19, during a time in my life when I was at the lowest of the low I figured it out or, perhaps more like I had remembered the long forgotten memory of it from my earlier youth or maybe even another life, another time, another dream. Big Empty by Stone Temple Pilots and as if it wasn't perfect enough on its own, it was part of The Crow OST, a film that holds close to my heart as much as this song does. From then on, I fell in love with STP and Scott. For the most part they were a coping mechanism to help me deal with the shit I had made of my life. I'm still working the kinks out, but I'm in a better place than I was then and even though I feel great loss when a popular mind, be it celeb or actor that I enjoy passes, nothing can describe the weight I felt knowing that Scott had lost his life to his demons. Drugs. I'm not perfect. I still got my bad habits and hangups at 27, but I'd like to do better at beating them and Scott, you were, no. You ARE an inspiration man. I'm saddened that I can't meet you now, one of my heroes. But I hope you're rocking it out up there man. You ain't gotta suffer no more, buddy. Peace and love, Scott. Thank you. You were a big part of not only the 90s, my era but of my life. Rock on brother. Rock on.
I remember exactly where I was the first time I heard this in 94'. If there was a movie about my life, STP would have to be in the soundtrack. Thanks for sharing.
It was such an experience to see that movie for the first time. Since then, it has been my beloved companion during bad times. True masterpiece. And STP, oh STP... Thank you, Scott, for being there and singing for us. I feel empowered to thank you in the name of us all.
No, I just become 25 again and wonder why my The Crow obsessed guy friends all disappeared. I always had such a crush on Scott. Did not even understand what I was reading earlier, an article in the paper said something about Scott in the past tense. I guess my brain was protecting itself for as long as possible. Now I'm just sick for his kids, horrible loss.
no your not this is classic 90's, and was a great time, the problem is that this new generation doesn't know it , because of all the crap there surrounded by, today's shit music and everything else
This movie and soundtrack really resonates with me. At the time I was in the military conducting continuous deployments between Somalia and Bosnia. We listened to these songs all the time. RIP Brandon Lee ...
Awesome movie and probably the best soundtrack for a movie I have heard. This track is the highlight for me and is probably the highlight of STP for me. Such an awesome song one of my top 10 of all time I reckon.
Driving faster in my car Falling farther from just what we are Smoke a cigarette and lie some more These conversations kill Falling faster in my car Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to take a ride It leaves today no conversation Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to wait too long To wait too long, to wait too long Too much walking, shoes worn thin Too much tripping and my soul's worn thin Time to catch a ride it leaves today Her name is what it means Too much walking, shoes worn thin Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to take a ride It leaves today no conversation Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to wait too long To wait too long To wait too long Conversations kill Conversations kill Conversations kill Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to take a ride It leaves today no conversation Time to take her home Her dizzy head is conscience laden Time to wait too long To wait too long To wait too long Conversations kill Conversations kill Conversations kill
Listening to STP always reminds me of my dad. He loved this band. He told me that he got to see them at a free concert at Sturgis and Scott was a zombie on stage.
An Incredible movie condensed into an awesome video. The look in Brandon's eyes in some of these parts (Hot but kinda creepy, he was awesome :) Thanx for giving us this gem.
Came here just like everyone else because of recent events. This is the video I remember for this song. My favorite STP from a favorite movie. Thank you for posting it. Rest in peace, Brandon. And now Scott.
so glad I was able to see STP twice live! RIP Scott! Brandon Lee, I named my son after him in '04. Too sad what happened to him! What a beautiful person, on the inside & out. (wish I could've met you 😊)
The very first song I ever heard from STP.... fell in love with them at that very moment....amazing work on the videos to compliment this movie..one of my all time favorites...
yeah, was also for me the first STP song I ever heard. Will never forget when I saw the movie trailer and heard the chorus of the song. I was just touched so deep,.. . I was 13 or 14 at the that time.. now I'm freakin' 39 and still love it.
