her voice in Fade Into You still brings me to tears with what it makes me feel, I don't even associate it with any specific memory but her voice in that song just hits me so hard every time I hear it; it played the other day and I was so moved once again
"Fade into you" represents to me when you love somebody so much that you reveal everything about yourself to them, all your secrets and interests and hidden talents, just all of you.. and then they move on not even realizing how much of you they are taking with them. It's not just sad to see them go, it's sad to see them take the best parts of you to improve their future selves while all you got from them was crippling depression. You've effectively faded into them. The bright light inside you has dimmed and their light has become brighter. It's so sad when it happens to you.
well it came on the radio not long i found out my mom was going to die from cancer....so ever since it just reminds me of when someone yur close to dies, and part of u dies with them..sometimes the best parts...cuz thats what happened to me.. the minute she left, big piece of me left with her
I fell in love with Hope Sandoval the moment I heard this song. Over 30 years later and divorced, I use this song on ny date night playlist. It can be sad and haunting, but there has always been a sensual side to it for me as well.
Easy to see why this atmospheric and mesmerizing song was used so much on film and TV soundtracks. It hooked me immediately when I first heard this on the radio, way back then. They had a wonderful sound, and Sandoval's voice elevates it to a heavenly level. Sad to hear of Roeback's early passing. R.I.P. He leaves behind his beautiful music.
It’s a beautiful song. Timeless, takes me back to early high school years where the only pressure in life was tests, sports and girls. And to be honest I didn’t stress tests. Before life’s real stresses, the last great generation. Life before social media, when passing a note was way more nerve wracking than sending a text. Where butterflies would consume your stomach thinking about calling a girl. The most innocent yet beautiful crazy years of my life.
I saw Mazzy Star live in the early 90s opening for the Cocteau Twins in Boston. It was a great show. I have always lovingly described their genre as country music for vampires.
@@MariaElena51185 You wouldn't beat that = small venue . Unless you saw them even earlier. I first saw DCD in a small venue in England in 1987 . The second best live gig I have seen in over 50 years ps saw the CT in a medium sized venue around 1992 in England. I prefer the music and voice of Lisa G to that of Elizabeth F. But they were both great then.
I saw that same tour. It was the Heaven or Las Vegas tour for the Cocteau Twins. It was an incredible show and it is where I first fell in love with Mazzy Star. Oh, to be 19 again.
While I realize that people have been saying that very thing about their own generation's music in contrast to that of the next generation's since time immemorial... ...I still can't help but agree with you 100%.
6:03 my favourite inclusion of Fade into You into a movie…is Starship Troopers. It’s buried incredibly deep into the mix, during a punch up between the infantrymen and officers at the space station. Baffling.
I’m not that generation ( 74 years) Been a long time since I heard anything that I want to listen to to and listen again. Her voice is hauntingly beautiful and the lyrics wonderful … so happy to have come across this on utube
I had a total crush on Hope Sandoval back in the day. She is beautiful, and everything about her persona just spoke to me. It's a shame "Among My Swan" wasn't more successful, because I think it was definitely their best album. They were certainly a unique group with a unique sound. I love their music.
When I heard the lyrics to this song, it made me feel like it was talking about me and the issues I have with connecting to people. I felt like I knew exactly what the lyrics were about. I think it can be portrayed in a romantic way as well.
I was actually introduced to Mazzy Star by a high school friend I used to skateboard with. He put Blue Flower on one day & I've been a fan ever since. As a guitar player I think Roback is underappreciated, every note is just the right thing for the song at hand, he's a perfect example of the "less is more" approach and how effective it can be. Then there's Hope, and I don't think anything more needs to be said when it comes to her as a singer and a lyricist. Phenomenal.
A song that only grows more haunting & powerful with time. A perfect jewel of a song that is free of unnecessary bulls**t. A song & voice to be discovered & treasured over & over. ❤🎉😊
The best way to describe the sound and feel of Mazzy Star is if you’ve ever been in serious pain and finally have surgery to fix the problem. After years of pain there’s relief on the horizon and you wake up in a (medically) drug induced haze but it’s great because you don’t feel any pain, anxiety, or concern. You just float along and go with it. Mazzy Star is like that haze: just listen and enjoy the feeling knowing everything will be alright.
That song will always make me think of my lost love. We were both big 90s junkies seeing as how we grew up in the era. We both loved this song. May she rest in peace....
I remember when the only kid in our friend group ever able to affort CD's got this one & it was "borrowed" by all of us, until it came full circle & found its permanent home back in my collection, as I just couldn't get enough of it. It was the theme song to "my so called 90's life" & I eventually named my daughter after her, so yeah, I'd say it had an impact.
That's freaking awesome. I remember seeing my so called life replayed on mtv till I was sick of it. I mean they used that as filler for like 5 years. Great show though, sucks it only got 1 season
From the lyrics I get the feeling the song isn’t even about a real relationship. When she says “in your eyes I see nothing” and “you move in shadows” she’s admitting she doesn’t know anything about this person. But at the same time, not really knowing them is what is enticing. The person is more alluring as pure fantasy than as someone whose flaws you know and that could hurt you.
I think fade into you is about an abusive relationship she was in with a narcissist because it's just the whole song is describing a person like this and this just hit me a few days ago while i was learning about this stuff for my own personal growth. The whole first verse is describing the mindset and the place a narcissistic person exists in and partly the way she was with him like she wanted to please and help him so much but she couldn't. It was also what it was doing to her too because she kept looking to him to see the truth probably even about herself. She loved him or so she thought because he didn't really know it so why was he with her?. I think it's plainly obvious now it's just this stuff wasn't really talked about in the 1990s and before those times were simpler, less people, no social media or internet making it obvious, and people were happier. There was always just a more innocent perception about people too nobody saw anything bad exactly it was what it was so song lyrics were often vague about heavier topics.
I wish the rest of their work was as big as this song. Under the bridge has some recognition aswell, i suppose. They deserve the credit. Hopes voice is so angelic ❤
When music is able to suspend your motion and clutch your psyche with mystical intensity, as was the case with Mazzy Star when I first came across them, you know it sits in the unique echelon of art. Part of what made this reaction by you guys so gripping is it mirrored the same reaction as me when I first heard Hope's voice; speechless, dream-like, and in awe. Her vocals feel as though you are ascending into the peaks of the upper-world. I would never have thought Mazzy star's alternative style would appeal to me at all, but since hearing Look On Down From the Bridge after that infamous Rick 'n' Morty episode - everything changed. This live-performance version at The Bridge is the best one for me . The resonance of the acoustics and sharpness of Hope's voice transcends any version of the song for me.
This is the song my ex's band was covering as I arrived late to our last backyard show of that summer before everyone left for school. We knew things were coming to an end for us, and she broke up with me after that night. Hard listen, considering I last heard it sung in her voice.
discovered this song while i was a bit suicidal. it really resonanted with my feeling of being heart-broken and hopeless. never saw it as love song, rather song about love (the doomed one).
I thank the Gods for hearing Opal first, Dream Sindycate, even Hope with her go home duet and follow with "She Hangs Brightly" before "So Tonight That I Might See". And not having fade in to you as Mazzy Star's best.
Mazzy Star's Fade Into You is used all the time as background music I worked at the 2010 census office with their drummer Keith Mitchell. We worked in the "Recruiting Department" which turned into the Customer service department it was a real "The Office" Situation lol... Keith Mitchell was the one person I looked forward to working with each day because of his quick wit and humor. And he would teach us how to play poker and tell us stories about Mazzy Star and how he was going to play at Coachella which eventually happened. He was so cool to work with those few months. One day I came into work Monday in regular clothes and he was like "It's casual Monday everybody!" lol RIP Keith
I had no idea that this song is used in TV and film so often. I don't recall having heard it in anything. I think I'd remember if I had though,because this is one of the first songs I would point to that would be great in a scene,given the appropriate context. ...I guess I wasn't the only one to think of that,huh!?
For me, the song is about despair. Loving someone so completely.... but loving gone so wrong that there is nothing more to say .....other than what the heck.
I hate when someone says a band or an artist or an album or genre is “misunderstood.” That’s what snobs say to prove to themselves that they think they have the “superior taste.” I understand quite well. I just don’t like the music. It’s called preference!!!
So what was the song about? This is more the history of Mazzy Star. You just said it's about the present not the past. "In the past" is different than "nostalgia"
"Fade Into You" is one of the most important, haunting, ethereal, and mesmerizing songs I have ever heard. It burrowed into my Soul when I was younger and will never leave me. 🥀
I've heard this song before but i never in my wildest dreams thought this song would be from the 1990s .....wow.... i thought this song was from the early 2010s since its sound really fits the decade....... i thought this song was like a decade old and that's it or less
I always liked her stuff and it still holds up strong today! She was just ahead of her time? Just in the wrong era like a lot of people! But with the right people around her back then she could've and should've got the bigger chance to stand out if she wanted it! But she always seemed like she didn't like the spot light! Idk I just had a smoke break and maybe trying to sound like I know what im talking about! 😂
It represents to me her willingness to be involved, enveloped into the mystery of a person whose identity is as unknown to him as he is to her. Almost as if her existence to him is a whim, in her desire she disappears into a shadow of his existence, she destroys herself in the dissolution of her fantasy of love. This is an interpretation of rejection, not attraction. Almost as if the attraction itself is the rejection of her existence, not his. When she looks at him she sees nothing, she looks to him for the truth- I can also see this as a fantasy she's having about someone she saw, or met and what she encountered in that fantasy. Something to chew on. Oe elaborate. I don't know.
To say a song is "misunderstood" is an interesting statement. What does it mean? Do songs have only one specific meaning? If it means something different to you, are you wrong? If a band does have a specific meaning in mind and is still misunderstood, doe it mean they did a poor job writing it? The things we want to know!
Back in the day when you only had to fund all your ep's, singles and albums whilst living on the road, in a truck, doing gigs, clubs and events with nothing to show for it other than the music. The record company and band would then reinvest 100-300k for an entry level video hoping to make it big on music TV channels 📺 You've also got the point when band members realise they, to be super or mega stars ⭐ are totally at the mercy of the public, cameras, their fan base and record company 24-7 🤦♂️ Not everyone wants to sell their soul 👻 Band members quickly run out of funds during the first 2-4years and being unable to raise millions for an epic music video 😔, they fade, fade into you 🤗 How resilient, determined and dedicated a person is relative in all our lives, we suddenly when younger have opportunities to become husbands, wives and parents, it's kinda of changes a person's focus not mention life on the road and doing certain shows is nog a happily life repeating the same songs every night for months on end +t requiring Hollywood actor style skills to give electric performances and interviews day in day out 😩
Even to this day, I still find Hope Sandoval's voice amazing. And of course Fade Into You was a popular middle/high school couples dance song in the mid to late 90's
Have you ever done a episode on the band ORGY ? I think they might have a interesting history, seems something happened with the two guitar players the main writers I assume and the singer maybe I'm wrong just what it feels like but if you did the work I'm sure you could clarify and give us the scoop .
her voice in Fade Into You still brings me to tears with what it makes me feel, I don't even associate it with any specific memory but her voice in that song just hits me so hard every time I hear it; it played the other day and I was so moved once again
Agreed 👍.
I bet you that subconsciously, it somehow is associated to a memory. Thats how it was for me. Nostalgia for sure.
One of my favorite songs of all time. Never get tired of hearing it.
She has the voice of an angel
Go listen to “Cry, cry” now that one will get a few to tear up
"Fade into you" represents to me when you love somebody so much that you reveal everything about yourself to them, all your secrets and interests and hidden talents, just all of you.. and then they move on not even realizing how much of you they are taking with them. It's not just sad to see them go, it's sad to see them take the best parts of you to improve their future selves while all you got from them was crippling depression.
You've effectively faded into them. The bright light inside you has dimmed and their light has become brighter. It's so sad when it happens to you.
Perfect!........healing the aftermath off narcissism.
Very insightful interpretation!
@lyndkent-cl2oe but you know what, the narcissist always ends up last in the end.
well it came on the radio not long i found out my mom was going to die from cancer....so ever since it just reminds me of when someone yur close to dies, and part of u dies with them..sometimes the best parts...cuz thats what happened to me.. the minute she left, big piece of me left with her

I saw Mazzy Star live in the early 90s opening for the Cocteau Twins in Boston. It was a great show. I have always lovingly described their genre as country music for vampires.
Wow! Those 2 women in the same show… swoon.
I saw Cocteau Twins with Dead Can Dance in ‘94 in a small venue though !

My brother is a great slide guitar player, so we always used to play this song when we had gigs together. I've loved it since it came out.
The 90s had depth, soul and romance. Today, you dont ever hear of such things.
Then you’re not listening.
I agree 👍
True art is hard to find these days, especially in music

😂
While I realize that people have been saying that very thing about their own generation's music in contrast to that of the next generation's since time immemorial...
...I still can't help but agree with you 100%.
Everything David Roback touched, turned to gold. Platinum in combination with Hope Sandoval. 💔

Just a ethereal haunting song . Her angel face doesnt hurt
Pixie looks
That song will always make me think of my lost love. We were both big 90s junkies seeing as how we grew up in the era. We both loved this song. May she rest in peace....
I will always connect the song with the movie Angus when he had his first dance with Ariana Richards ( Lexi from Jurassic Park ) 1995
That was a great but underrated movie in 1995
I remember when the only kid in our friend group ever able to affort CD's got this one & it was "borrowed" by all of us, until it came full circle & found its permanent home back in my collection, as I just couldn't get enough of it.

Admit it you liked or more likely loved this song just like you loved the person it reminds you of ❤
I don’t even care about the lyrics or what they mean. The music is what I love. Especially the slide guitar.
I still haven't gotten over my crush on Hope Sandoval
She’s some kinda gorgeous… and a voice to match
You aren’t the only one
yeah, none of us have
You think you will? You fool😊
Beautiful girl, beautiful woman
She broke my hart and mended it at the same time. First love as a hopeful teenager..
Into Dust was the hook for me. Magical, powerful songwriting.
Saw Mazzy Star at Club Lingerie in 1991. I like Hope’s solo stuff as well. RIP David
This is the first song I ever sang with a band, in 1990…I went on to be in bands for 20 years. Thanks Mazzy Star
God I love this song. So smooth, relaxing and beautiful. Her voice takes it over the top.
If you haven’t heard Among my Swan, do yourself a favor and go stream that album after this video.
Its a very beautiful soft lyrics.i under stand how it became a hit .had deep meaning for some people.
I first heard the song on the Angus soundtrack - one of the greatest soundtracks and movies to come out of the 90's.
Same here!! I was instantly hooked and I quickly sought to download it. I crank it every time I hear it.
From the lyrics I get the feeling the song isn’t even about a real relationship. When she says “in your eyes I see nothing” and “you move in shadows” she’s admitting she doesn’t know anything about this person. But at the same time, not really knowing them is what is enticing.

so glad I was part of that era when Hope Sandoval's Mazzy Star and Nirvana captivated the youth, and music was REAL MUSIC.
Remember when the dinosaurs told you that their records, not yours, was 'real music'...
@@LessAiredvanU the funny part is ur face looks a lot older than mine...hahaha
I wish the rest of their work was as big as this song. Under the bridge has some recognition aswell, i suppose. They deserve the credit. Hopes voice is so angelic ❤
Her voice and lyrics make the song uniquely beautiful, present and profoundly human!

Totally takes me back to a time in my life long past whenever I hear Fade into You
discovered this song while i was a bit suicidal. it really resonanted with my feeling of being heart-broken and hopeless. never saw it as love song, rather song about love (the doomed one).
I thank the Gods for hearing Opal first, Dream Sindycate, even Hope with her go home duet and follow with "She Hangs Brightly" before "So Tonight That I Might See". And not having fade in to you as Mazzy Star's best.
Mazzy Star's Fade Into You is used all the time as background music
I worked at the 2010 census office with their drummer Keith Mitchell. We worked in the "Recruiting Department" which turned into the Customer service department it was a real "The Office" Situation lol...
Keith Mitchell was the one person I looked forward to working with each day because of his quick wit and humor. And he would teach us how to play poker and tell us stories about Mazzy Star and how he was going to play at Coachella which eventually happened. He was so cool to work with those few months. One day I came into work Monday in regular clothes and he was like "It's casual Monday everybody!" lol
RIP Keith
Τhose were the days... Pure feeling in music.
I had no idea that this song is used in TV and film so often. I don't recall having heard it in anything. I think I'd remember if I had though,because this is one of the first songs I would point to that would be great in a scene,given the appropriate context.
...I guess I wasn't the only one to think of that,huh!?
Hope Sandoval has such a beautiful soul.
For me, the song is about despair. Loving someone so completely.... but loving gone so wrong that there is nothing more to say .....other than what the heck.
I hate when someone says a band or an artist or an album or genre is “misunderstood.” That’s what snobs say to prove to themselves that they think they have the “superior taste.” I understand quite well. I just don’t like the music. It’s called preference!!!
So what was the song about? This is more the history of Mazzy Star. You just said it's about the present not the past. "In the past" is different than "nostalgia"
"Fade Into You" is one of the most important, haunting, ethereal, and mesmerizing songs I have ever heard. It burrowed into my Soul when I was younger and will never leave me. 🥀
Try out Brian Jonestown Massacre “Anemone”
My heart broke when I heard that Dave Roback passed away.
Gorgeous song from an amazing band. Loved the video! ❤
Well there it is, supposedly a quote from the songwriters providing insight about how the universe works in mysterious ways. :)
It was on the My So Called Life soundtrack and that's how I discovered Mazzy Star. That was a great soundtrack.
“Halah” off of “She Hangs Brightly” was also a great song.
I still love this song to this day
Huh... this song debuted 30 years ago yesterday (Sept 3, 1994). Love the song
it was always about the betrayal of those women knew for those that gave them feelings.
"I find it strange you never knew."
we live in the after math of the meaning of fade into you.
"Shame you never knew" is present tense??? I think not.
I've heard this song before but i never in my wildest dreams thought this song would be from the 1990s .....wow.... i thought this song was from the early 2010s since its sound really fits the decade....... i thought this song was like a decade old and that's it or less
I dont want to know what artists think about their songs,my interpretation is always better.
One of my most FAVORITE songs ever!!! ❤❤❤❤
I haven't heard this song in 20+ years. Go for it Angus!
Personally, I think "Into Dust" is a more emotionally stirring song. IMHO
I can't understand why he wasn't into Hope, she was and is a nice catch!
Uh, he probably was. How could anyone not be?
Love Them So Much, I Hope she Comes back on tour :)
I want that song played at my funeral…
Do some captain beefheart videos
A song is about how you interpret it. Have you never heard that? Ask any songwriter.
I didn't realise the song was written in present tense, tho for me , the song is about the first warnings of a inminent breakup of a relationship.
She's my baby is my favorite Mazzy song
Fade into you what it is to you and that's that.
I wish David was still bere😢
I love this song so much!! This is our song my wife and I.
Rip dave roback
So Tonight That I Might See is timeless & amazing in its entirety ❤!
I have this on cassette
There’s no objective interpretation of art, maybe there’s the artists intentions but each person puts their own spin on it through their perspective
I saw her perform this at shoreline Amphitheatre in mt view ca - the video is still on UA-cam
I always just thought it was about shy people trying to get it on.
for me, the song won't fade...it would turn immortal
2:09 what performance was this?
God damn I fell in love with Hope... such a goddess. X
Very informative information I never knew Great Job
Maze Star were great. My only complaint is that they only painted in one color
@flickerstick does one of the best covers of Fade Into You. Well worth checking out.
If this tune came out a few years earlier they would have played at the Bang Bang.
A LOVE IT A LOT A BEAUTIFUL PEACE OF MUSIC A HAUNTING BEAUTIFUL SONG AND GREAT SONG RIGHTING LOVE HOPE SANDOVAL VOICE ❤ 😂 🎉 😢 😮 😊 😊 ! .
I always liked her stuff and it still holds up strong today! She was just ahead of her time? Just in the wrong era like a lot of people! But with the right people around her back then she could've and should've got the bigger chance to stand out if she wanted it! But she always seemed like she didn't like the spot light! Idk I just had a smoke break and maybe trying to sound like I know what im talking about! 😂
Was just about a stoned girl pondering reality.
Never misunderstood anything about it:D
Seeing CGBG in the video, makes me wonder if you have done a video on Soul Coughing?
CBGB?
It's a great song
It represents to me her willingness to be involved, enveloped into the mystery of a person whose identity is as unknown to him as he is to her. Almost as if her existence to him is a whim, in her desire she disappears into a shadow of his existence, she destroys herself in the dissolution of her fantasy of love. This is an interpretation of rejection, not attraction. Almost as if the attraction itself is the rejection of her existence, not his. When she looks at him she sees nothing, she looks to him for the truth-
I can also see this as a fantasy she's having about someone she saw, or met and what she encountered in that fantasy.
Something to chew on. Oe elaborate. I don't know.
To say a song is "misunderstood" is an interesting statement. What does it mean?
Do songs have only one specific meaning? If it means something different to you, are you wrong?
If a band does have a specific meaning in mind and is still misunderstood, doe it mean they did a poor job writing it?
The things we want to know!
I found this song's inclusion on Starship Troopers during a fight scene bemusing.
Hope was an amazing songwriter and performer. My favorite is look on down from the bridge
That's a good one
Back in the day when you only had to fund all your ep's, singles and albums whilst living on the road, in a truck, doing gigs, clubs and events with nothing to show for it other than the music. The record company and band would then reinvest 100-300k for an entry level video hoping to make it big on music TV channels 📺
You've also got the point when band members realise they, to be super or mega stars ⭐ are totally at the mercy of the public, cameras, their fan base and record company 24-7 🤦♂️
Not everyone wants to sell their soul 👻
Band members quickly run out of funds during the first 2-4years and being unable to raise millions for an epic music video 😔, they fade, fade into you 🤗
How resilient, determined and dedicated a person is relative in all our lives, we suddenly when younger have opportunities to become husbands, wives and parents, it's kinda of changes a person's focus not mention life on the road and doing certain shows is nog a happily life repeating the same songs every night for months on end +t requiring Hollywood actor style skills to give electric performances and interviews day in day out 😩
Even to this day, I still find Hope Sandoval's voice amazing.
And of course Fade Into You was a popular middle/high school couples dance song in the mid to late 90's
It was early 90s
Have you ever done a episode on the band ORGY ? I think they might have a interesting history, seems something happened with the two guitar players the main writers I assume and the singer maybe I'm wrong just what it feels like but if you did the work I'm sure you could clarify and give us the scoop .
Beautiful song
