About 2 Meter Sessions
====================
Based in the Netherlands, 2 Meter Sessions is an independent, ongoing (new) music platform with a great legacy. Monthly we film 3 to 4 sessions with promising and breakthrough acts from all over the world.
Many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993).
The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zeeland band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands.

Came from the future2034 to tell you he also sang for a few guns n roses songs.
But yeah take notes
Emotion and feeling
Awesome sessions!!!
dood was amazing
did you take down the other video of this that didnt have the beginning cut off?
Did Blind Melon perform "Change" during these sessions; is there a link? 🙂
Shannon Hoon was the link between 90s grunge and 60s psychedelic rock. That connection was severed when he died and nobody ever really reestablished it.

Those two eras were like reset's on the commercialization of the industry.
This song always reminded of 1967 Grateful Dead
People write a lot about the 90's singers that passed away like Cobain, Staley, Cornell or Weiland, and rightfully so. However Hoon deserves to be mentioned up there with the others... RIP
Your comment is great.!! I absolutely agree, and for some reason I have been digging into the blind melon history lately. His voice on this song was hypnotic. Maybe that's just me, but it seems to be correct. Anyways love your comment.
@@pisceandreams5893 Thanks buddy! He really was a phenomenal singer.
Comparing this dude with Cornell is the greatest idiocy I have ever read. He's not worthy of shinning Cornell's shoes!
@ you missed his point he never said he was as good as The Grunge singers he just got mad and he passed on in the 90s they both are great singers just different styles of music it's all your opinion of what kind of music you like some people would hate our style of music and say that we suck but that's their opinion I personally love Grunge and all of the singers just thought you might want to know he's not saying that he is as good as your favorite singer just that he passed on in the 90s and should be remembered
Mmmm I’m pretty sure he is always mentioned amongst these other stars...
For those of you who are too young to remember this guy, when this song came out it was HUGE. On the radio ALL DAY. Still an iconic song to this day
I remember and miss the 90's what a great decade and the 80's too 🥲and I remember this song playing on MTV with the lil bee gurl 🥲ah man those were the times!
I missed the 90s by a fuckin inch but thanks to my parents being fresh out of high school when they had me I was raised around a lot of that culture. This song brings me right back to growing up in the early 2000s and I love every second of it! 🤙🏻
The video played probably twice an hour for 3 years on MTV
I remember it being played CONSTANTLY and never getting sick of it... Still gives me goosebumps hearing Shannon's voice.
This video shows just how effortlessly he sings it. I can get close but it takes a LOT of forcing and it's not half as good as his voice
Hey, MTV kids of the 90's! How lucky were we to live in one of the greatest musical periods in history. A mini flower era. Love my life!
He was the 90's male Janis Joplin.
RIP Brother, we haven't forgot you and we still love you.
Your comment is great. But I hear that comparison alot from people and I don't know about all that. He never really RIPS loose on a song like Janis Joplin did. He does a little bit and especially on the Woodstock video. I get what your saying and why your saying it,, but I don't know about being next to Joplin.
@@pisceandreams5893 No, his comment is NOT great. It's very stupid actually.
Wtf Janis Joplin? Not even close, I mean, Jim Morrison or Robert Plant were most similar to her
Marcus King is the male
Janis Joplin.. fight me
Layne would be male 90’s Joplin
In '92 I was tending bar late on a Sunday night @ Daddy Warbux in Ybor City, Tampa. Textbook dive bar, nothin' happenin'. "Auto" comes in and asks if I wanna see a band after I close, says his buddy's workin' the door and we can get in for free. I'm in. So we go to the pool 'n' pub, stroll in and the place is EMPTY. It's an old theater with the seats removed and the floor's slanted so all the tables wobble. there's like 5 or 6 people and this band starts playing. They play a whole set without a word because there is no crowd to acknowledge. I'm thinkin,' these guys are pretty good, where's the fans? A few weeks go by and I hear "No Rain" on the radio and the video's a huge hit on Mtv. I instantly recognize the song and surmise that these guys were readying themselves for a tour. Close brush with greatness.
Dan Tierney thanks for taking the time to share! Interesting. Once in a life time right place right time moments
Nice story.
Ybor a shithole back then?
@@wyleeelpuppo4868 not like it is now. Still the gritty drug laden heaven it is now but death was three streets away not next to you at the bar.
Dan Tierney - Cool story. Thanks for sharing!
No one will ever read this, but this song makes me think about my friend Myke. I haven't seen him in years and unfortunately he is most likely putting a needle in his arm. He was such a bright spirit and musician and this song was always something we jammed. i don't know if I will ever see him again but I hope i do.
i read it my friend & i hope you´ll see your friend someday again
feel sorry for you man, hope you'll see him again someday.
I will read it
If u do see him pls let us know Jim, lots of us read it and hope u guys meet again, hope Myke`s doing ok...cheers
He's doing the best he can just like you are. Hope you guys are reunited in this life.
This song is incredibly sad, sang by a smile and upbeat music.
I found it happy-sad
Compassion for the girl who doesn’t fit in with people who don’t understand her…
And then how easy life is when she finds her tribe
His vocals seem so effortless! Easily my favourite Blind Melon video.
Dale Tracey he was a dick head
Dale Tracey he addlibbed sooo well “ho ho ho! Merry Christmas” 🙂 or “all I can say, is the Velvet Underground is great”💙
Q Tē nooooo you don’t know SHIT! He was a brat like I was at that age his mother keeps him alive Shannon was no Dickhead he was a genius
@@qte5530 your mum is a dick head
@@qte5530 u knew shannon?
I saw Blind melon in Milton Keynes England 6 months before this was recorded. Supporting Guns n Roses. With The Cult and Soul Asylum. One of the best days of my life. My 16 year old daughter has just got into Blind Mellon. Listen to het play her music its like me as a teen. Hoing back in time. Kind of special. ❤
I love the "ho ho merry Christmas" line. Shannon was having fun improvising while also making the song better at the same time.
best
In one performance of this song he sang "All I can say is Velvet Underground is great"
Every time I see Shannon I think about how someone said that he was a jock in high school. Trying to picture him on the football team is hard for me. Great talent, sad he went away so soon.
:D
Not all Jocks are bullies and meatheads but most midwestern guys wrestled. Try not putting everything in a box and maybe you’ll understand his music a little better too.

Imagine him with short hair and it’s easy

Literally made me chuckle
I got a little belly laugh out of it
Shannon is such an underrated singer & really does deserve more recognition
Absolutely
@Gout Lord and you're a Millenial shit? Right?
One of the best 90s rock voices for sure.
@@TheSantiTuber ,Absolutely!
Good job Shannon?
This is singlehandedly one of the best live performances of any song, ever, and I have no idea why.
When I listen it makes me think there was a feeling in the room that they were doing something special in that session
This looks like it was recorded last year. 90’s has come full circle.
I love the way Shannon always improvised and altered his lyrics and vocal melodies in his live sessions so seamlessly and effortlessly. Wonderful singer and a even better musician.
My dad smoked weed with Shannon and got to chill with him a few times when they came to St. Louis. My dad would go back stage and chill with some badass people. He said this man was one of the coolest and laid back people he's ever made contact with.
I miss the guy. RIP😢

Gone Too Soon, But Never Forgotten. ❤️
Respect 💯
shut the fuck up dude
Lots of young talents gone too soon missing in your list.
The grunge fad imploded on itself. Ironically, most of the metal bands that grunge set aside are still alive and kicking.
@@stringjazz2937 nah list is perfect.
He just sings in that extremely hard acute pitch with the same effort he does when breathing, amazing
It makes ones jaw ache and lock up after extended singing.
Poor Shannon. He had such a sweet smile.
God rest his soul and help his family.☦🏫🕯
He had such masterful control of his singing voice
He has the most wonderful smile.
He's tripping off his box haha. Memories of the 90s. R. I. P Shannon Hoon. Effortless beautiful voice
I couldn’t put my finger on it how tuned in he was lmfao. Makes perfect sense
It's like a curse on me. The day I discover a great band and a singer and I come across this heart melting comment 😢
today is Shannon's Birthday!
Forever missed, You'll always be special to me!
R.I.P
Bring me to tears
crazy to see how drastically he changed in only 2 years... he seemed so happy here
His eyes looked sober too.....
He was happy clear up until yhe hour of his death with a new baby, just was at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Shannon’s voice is so unique and he was such a great artist. Absolutely one of my favorite singers ever 😁
I don't know who you are Debbie but I think I'm in love with you
This song, Caribbean Queen by Billy Ocean, Rooster by Alice In Chains have been on repeat for a few days!!
I’ve always loved this song but it comes in and out of my life just when I need it!
This version is a gift from god.
what a beautiful voice I remember when I was a kid hearing this song. Too many good musicians gone in the 90's. RIP thank you for your music
Incredible. Just incredible!
This session turned 28 years old today. Shannon has always gotten me through dark times. RIP Shannon you are missed everyday.
Blind Melon is one of my all time favorite bands. Soup is a near perfect album, and I like to imagine it's what Zeppelin would have put out in the 90s if they stayed on the same trajectory they were on in the 70s. Shannon's death is a real tragedy.
Looks like a young Ozzy.
I thought it was ozzy for a second when I saw the thumbnail
I think this is an ozzy cover! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Jajjajjaja yeahhh
@Gout Lord awe gloomer
Cock A Doodle Doo - hey pal, you forgot to shame white heterosexual men.
I'm thankful we had Shannon for the short time we did. What a gift to music.
Didn't see your comment before my post. Different words, but same sentiment 🌹
God took Shannon to heaven. Shannon was so young and... so good for being among ordinary people. He was outstanding person. RIP Shannon.
@@gsxrkz With all respect, think you’ll find that although you only know one song, many thousands of people know a lot of their material and have an extensive knowledge of Blind Melon’s back catalogue. Many people may even have watched them perform live, bought their memorabilia and therefore have been slightly upset when he died at such a young age. As such, those same people may have looked up videos of Blind Melon playing on UA-cam and written melancholy, wistful comments about Shannon Hoon. Stay safe, wherever you are. And also, have a listen to some of their stuff; it’s pretty good 👍
The time changes and melody changes are so nice
I'm a 54 yr old and I keep coming back to these different versions of this song. Absolutely love this kids' way of hanging it out there. A talent that and a really tragedy how the demons ate him up ...
me too. awesome song
Same. Would've liked so much more of his music. Just glad he gave us what he had before he left us🌹
I used to trip acid up in the mountains of Colorado with friends when I was in my early 20s and this song was always an integral part of the trip. such positive vibes when you're peaking and totally out of your mind.
45 here and right there with you. Imagine I'll be saying the same when I hit 55.
Never hear anyone talk about how great his voice is. Just as good as the rest of the grunge guys. Pure talent. Lost too soon.
I mean, I’ve talked about it since 95 or so
Such A Beautiful Voice. Now He Is Singing With The Angels.
He was such an amazing talent. Shannon had a unique voice that's still missed today.
Hoax
productions yes your channel is a hoax
@@electrickrain I work for a living. I don't have time for a UA-cam channel u fkn prick. Get a life
This takes me back to the most wonderful time in my life, deeply in love with a wonderful family, sadly like Blind Melon it did not last. RIP.
love when great musicians find THAT one singer that fits them perfectly without trying to change them. such a loss. this is perfect.
Shannon will forever hold a place in my heart. This is such a deep version of this song. Gone too soon, but you left your mark.
It is 3am on a Monday, and I have watched this video 2 times in a row. My whole week feels amazing already. Thank you Shannon and Blind Melon, and 2metersessions.
if i had a dollar for every girl i've met on campus that looks like shannon hoon, i would have maybe 25 bucks.
LMFAO thats why i always thought this band was kinda creepy as a kid lmfao and i cant stand this song i just had to see if it was more tolerable in a live performance but no, i just hate the tone of his voice at times seems nasal.
A92ndf9 558 if you don’t like his voice you don’t have to listen to it
Ozthewizard 1 his voice sucks absolute ass and radio stations over play this fucking pathetic cheesy retarded nasal song so much that sometimes people have no choice but to suffer hearing this absolute annoying corny song
A92ndf9 558 I would like to see you do better asshole
@@Andf-kc4xx you're absolutely delusional if you think he can't sing. It's one thing to not like their music, but it's asinine to claim his voice is garbage.
If Axl Rose thought he was talented enough to put on Don't Cry, that has to count more than a random on the internet whining about his voice.
Man, he was only a kid....Now that I have two sons about the same age he had when he died, it's really sad...Never noticed before he had a great voice....
Shannon was an amazing vocalist. What a gift to have.
I grew up loving this song. Never realized how hard it is to sing. And he sang it with so much style. It makes me so sad.
who abandoned his daughter...
Zurich Davis he didn’t really abandon her
30yrs yesterday when this was recorded fucking crazy and I’m 34 pretty much my whole life crazy rip shannon
I remember the day he passed away. Was in my car when the news broke over the radio. I was crushed. Still am. Such a great talent. Such a great singer. Unique voice. You could play a thousand songs and know which one was Blind Melon's based on his voice. Just to echo what a lot of others in this thread are saying.....Shannon Hoon and Blind Melon, totally underrated and underappreciated. You're truly missed Shannon.
This song reminds me of being young when everything was so great really reminds me of my dad being young so awesome taught me to play this song when I was 10 miss you every day dad love you so much wish you could’ve met your grand kids
Da Vinci so sorry about your dad. I teach my 7 year old all about good music. Hope he always remembers that about me when I’m gone someday
Shannon was an amazing vocalist. What a gift to have.
Shannon,Layne, and Chris are singing together today💕
Video from ‘93: *crystal clear almost like you’re there with the band*
Bank security footage from 2019: *i think that might be a human? Maybe not tho*
This was professionally lit and filmed with a broadcast quality camera on broadcast quality video tape. In other words, a lot of time went into preparing this to look good.
With security cameras, they usually record to cheap media because they are constantly recording and it would be (among other things) prohibitively expensive to use high quality equipment for something that sees routine, daily use.
Yup!
Look I’m just saying. Security cameras should still be better. If their gonna go through the trouble of putting cameras up then they might as well pay for good ones
@@juliettest.laclaire8931 I'm with you, Mr Spaghetti. GoPro type cameras aren't that expensive anymore and shouldn't be considered prohibitive for a bank or even a 711 entrance
Would take too much memory for high quality videos to be recorded and saved 24/7 a 240p video is easier to stream and store than a 720p but i agree if money and time wasnt an issue security footage should be more clear in some places.
He sang this so effortlessly! Such a raw talent he had, so sad he left us so soon x
They just don't make em like this anymore. Song brings so many memories of growing up.
They do. Go support those artists too.
@@goldenhourkodak I don't think they do (personal opinion). So naw I'm good.

Miss him so much. Such a talented guy.
This was filmed on my actual birthday! 11/10/1993!
It does rip your life away. He knew and still passed away. So tragic. So blessed that I got to see then open for The Stones. Thanks Mom ❤
"All I can say tho that my life its pretty plain, and I like watching the puddles gather rain, and all I can do is just pour some tea for too, and maybe even speak my point of view but it's not sane nooo! It's not saneeee!" 🎧🎼
We still feel it!!
Rip brother, your truly missed and your singing as well
he has such a contagious smile
Beautiful! Wowowow ! Voice of an angel ❤❤❤ young beautiful son , man talented beyond words
What a beautiful and talented man. Don’t know much about him I only know he sadly passed away. His face kinda reminds me of Pelle Ohlín. Both so young and beautiful and they will remain that way forever.
This reminds me so much of the early 90’s when I lived in a little NYC apartment in Hell’s Kitchen. Crackhead on the top floor, no internet, no cellphone, hell I didn’t even have a tv. Just my little boom box, cds, tapes, and stacks of books to read. What a great time.
Sounds like you’re describing prison lol
@@spotless7241 other than the crackhead, it was a great place and a great time. Listened to lots of music and read lots of books. Perhaps some people in prison experienced this as well. I think my food was probably better and I got to go out everyday.
What music were ya blastin' then?
@@holaespanoldewisconsin7153 I was listening to everything. Jazz, classical, soul, reggae, blues, folk, grunge, and some speed metal. It was a special time. I was free. Broken up with a long term girlfriend, trying to figure out what to do with my life, working as a waiter, reading tons of books, newspapers, going to the $1 movie theater to watch second runs. It was a special time. I sort of wish I could go back to it.
@@clacicle damn, sounds like me.
Easily one of my favorite 90's bands. I miss you.
This stuff makes me sad and happy all at the same time. I now understand what parents saw when they watched videos from the 60s and 70s. To all the kids today this is ancient history to me it was just yesterday that i was in 8th grade listening to this!
Shannon was such a sweet, vulnerable human. I was 14 when this song came out and it gives me as much joy to listen to today as it did 30 years ago 🥺
Gosh, I miss that beautiful voice, that smile, that face. 😢💕 I sometimes think about what Shannon would be doing today if he were still alive. I can picture him being a solo singer/songwriter, though still jamming w/ Blind Melon. He’d probably be an activist and philanthropist, too. But most of all, he’d still be the sweet-natured person that he seemed to be, and helping people thru his incredible talent.
It rips my life away,but its a great escape......and everyday i need ah little bit of one
eres una mujer muy bella
When I heard this song the first time, I was 12 years old. Now I'm 40 and it continues to excite me. Shannon will be young forever and I will be older every day.
😔
This is the best thing I’ve ever heard
Shannon pulled his headset off at the end knowing what he was singing was best. PLEASE!
How can a man be so pretty!!
Love you brother you will never be forgotten I will be a less piece of crap and visit you one of these days and give you all your respects
I love you man this song have just given me so much love
My favourite hippie😁 So beautiful
He sings so amazing and with so little effort bless this man rip
I know this song. Never knew who sang it. Good one.
Can we just appreciate the fuckin harmony in the man's voice I mean my goodness
Really love how he throws lil side comments in between each line, seemed like a real fun guy.
What a beautiful voice and soul
One of the few positives during the Covid19 lockdown being on UA-cam long enough to stumble upon a gem of a video like this. RIP Shannon.
I'm 40 back to watch 2020 🇨🇦🤘
Mad, this song always makes me feel happy and sad at the same time! Love it.
This sounds like 70’s folk bands! I love it
"Soup" is the most underrated album ever.
How could anyone dislike this? Baffling!
Scotty N I’m kinda pissed if I’m the bassist. Such a signature part and they never even show him.
theShutUpShop especially because he wrote the song
Eric Cartman would say: "Hippies, hippies everywhere"
That smile at the end. What an angel. His southern accent at the end too. I love him in don’t cry by gnr
He’s from Lafayette IN, northwest Indiana, no southern accents up here

I can’t help love the ho ho ho merry Christmas I love it
I miss the music from the Nineties that was a good decade for us that was when the great music came about even though we got the footsteps from other decades.
Shannon Moon was a real kid with no insider pull who straight hopped a bus to LA and reached the apex of rock excellence on talent and vibes alone. Does that EVER happen anymore? Is it even possible?
Sadly, not possible any longer.
That's a real cool story, but he most definitely knew and was pretty close to Axl Rose, so......
Great talent though. Drugs suck.
Unfortunately AND fortunately you don't have to anymore....and that's prolly part of the problem. No risk required.
if you only knew what it is to a guitarist to have your voice.
can you explain this comment?
this song is tough to play and sing and Shannon sings real well, is wht I think they mean, as a guitarist myself
Diego Leiva he means he has a naturally unique timbre and very good technique, even if you’re a good guitarist you might not make it in the “big leagues” without something memorable like a voice like that.
He was a decent guitarist too. One of the greatest losses ever. Miss him every day.
Patrick Fay Every. Day. Well said bruh
Idk why but i always thought this song was from the 70’s i was also born in 98 always loved this song never even bothered to look up a video of it or anything about it 😂
