My daddy just passed away 2 weeks ago. My heart aches when I play this song because my daddy would pick me up in his Big grey Thunderbird when I was 6 year's old, put me on the arm rest seat in the middle, we would go to 7-11 & he would get a 6 pack of michelob beer, I would get a slurpee & he would crank up Jackson Brown "Running on Empty". I'm 47 years old now and I still cry like a little boy to be with daddy again in that car
I understand, I Truly do .
Sounds like my childhood...wouldn't trade it for anything!
...memories like that are hard to come by. His music takes me back to the best days of my life...sometimes it's hard to hold back the tears...
Sorry about your dad.
@@anthonyevans1891 thank you brother. That means a lot your words. Please take care and stay in touch my friend
My pap was a miller highlife drinker and a big fan of the drifters every now and then I buy a big bottle of high life and listen to some of their songs , usually "up on the roof" until I go all misty eyed. I feel your pain friend, truly.
Classic. So blessed I was born during this creation of amazing music. No vulgar, no evilness, no huge media hype. Just misic.
Indeed! Still holds its own.
Same here Alice. This era in music will never be repeated. We were bombarded with new hit songs from a variety of bands every day, to the point I took it for granted. Only in the last few decades have I realized what a special time it was and how grateful I am to have experienced it.
This still exists you just got to look for it you can't be stuck in the past that's a good and a bad thing
Amazing music 🎼🎼🎼🎼 Year of Dragon 6/3/2024/
OMG smorgasbord for our ears. we had
Every generation has its own music. This was mine, and in 2023 still is...
"everyone I know ,every where I go.people needs some reason to believe" those lyrics creates confidence.
I think this is the best road song ever recorded!!!
And you are blessed for this. You lived that beautiful time. ❤❤
So very true - my 27 year old granddaughter who listens to "Cool Jazz" has never even heard of Bob Dylan, nor has her 18 year old younger brother.
Music is the closest thing we’ll ever get to having a time machine. This song brings me back to such an innocent time when I had absolutely no worries or cares in the world.
Yes, I feel the same way.
Great music the music today is trouble
Amazing music 🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼 Year of Dragon 6/3/2024🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Well said.
❤ June 2024 here. Thanks for the memories and for the big smile I had when I heard the audience applause. 🎉
I remember at one of his shows he asked the crowd for a request one lady screamed "BROWN EYED GIRL!!" a man in the back screamed "YOU DUMB BROAD THAT'S VAN MORRISON" Jackson comes out and says "go easy on her man" then preceded to play brown eyed girl note for note it was awesome!!
Great story... a classy act from a classy cat!
I shouted out 'Rosie' for him to play at one of his shows and he kind of giggled at me and said that guys usually asked to hear that one. I didn't know why at the time but found out pretty quick afterwards. He played it for me anyway and it's a beautiful song - hidden meaning or not ;)
*THAT'S

I always liked this song a lot. When my brother was in the hospital dying, this song came came on the radio when I was driving, in his truck, back to the hospital to spend the day/night at his bedside. He was truly running on empty, and he was a Jackson Browne fan. This great song is now tied forever in my heart to my dear brother. I still love it, but it makes me melancholy now.
What a beautiful tribute not only to your brother but to the song that brought us here. A song can hold something that helps us remember. Blessings as you remember your brother and walk on without him.
Wow this reminds me of my brother he passed 9 14 20 on complete emptiness he didn't speak last 30 days :(
But when I used to go to his place we would always play this RIP. let their memories always be alive and always feel the tingle when you hear this song that is them coming through 😊
@@dellk8198 Bless you, mate. Those are deep waters. Even in a comments string and even ever so slightly, burdens shared are better borne together.
I’m sorry for your loss. ❤️
@@th29inchbgyellowtaxi thanks 😊 he visits each day as a bluejay and gets some peanuts and seeds it warms my ❤️ heart!
There’ll never be music like this again!
This made me tear up
Nope
Totaly agree..Jackson Brown..Luv his Music
Once a Jackson Browne fan...always a Jackson Browne fan. His music is timeless.
You bet 👍
Truth
I bought the album when it came out, all of 16 years old. Takes me back every time.
Fam since 71 buddy!!
Timeless baby!!
Best music ever. Makes me miss my husband. Died at 39. Been almost 19 years. 😪
Love for you and your husband
R.I.P
Teresa Kimberlin : I know the feeling. My wife died just over a year ago. Married for 37 years. Miss her everyday.
This is my road song
I'm sorry 😢
Back when young men had the courage to run on empty.
I'm going to turn 66 at my next birthday; I'm old AF and starting to feel it in my very bones. But when I listen to this song, or "Take it Easy" with Glen Frey singing those beautiful, beautiful lyrics, for a few minutes, the decades drop away from me, and I feel the ghost of the 21 year old me, still there inside my memory, who first heard "Running on Empty" on a car radio in 1977. Thank you for this glorious music.
I can never give up. I'll fill my empty tank some how.
66 isn't old af 96 is old af. You're still young. Keep enjoying everything 👍👍
My sister you are not alone in feeling the years drop away listening the classic hits from our younger years
I'm about to turn 65....you expressed my thoughts exactly!
What he said.
"Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive." Try not to confuse it with what you do to survive." My absolute favorite lines!
Hello Glenda...
cunfuse
Thanks for pointing that out! 2022 A.D. !
Excellent! "Don't confront me with my failures, I had not forgotten them" from These Days is the lyric that I'm living by .....especially lately.
Glenda so many of Jackson browne's lyrics ranks so true to me he was always my all-time favorite singer
Saw Jackson Browne last night at the Palladium. He can still sing like he did when this song was on the charts. If you've never seen him, I urge you to experience a true Southern California legend.
best live show ever he sounds just as great live.
saw him in bayonne manilow remains the greatest but jackson has powercharism
I saw him in 1998 at a free concert here in Jacksonville Florida
I got to see him in the mid-1980s, second row center seats!
It was the best time I've ever had at a concert. My boyfriend bought those tickets for my birthday, and being an avid sewist, I made us both matching shirts with crazy neon print fabric that looked like an acid trip. I figured if we got separated in the crowd it would make it easy to find each other.😉
When Jackson played his song, "For a Rocker" he grinned and pointed at us when he got to the verse:
"I've got a shirt so unbelievably bright
I'm gonna dig it out and wear it tonight
For a rocker!"
🤯😝
That was when legendary guitarist, David Lindley, was with the band. He was a fantastic songwriter and performer in his own right, I love his solo albums (that's Lindley shown at :07).❤
Lindley died last year from complications of long covid he contacted covid in 2020. Feck covid! It also took John Prine from us, along with so many other loved ones.😭
The music of my youth... Damn if I didn't have the greatest sound track of growing up!!!! Take me back to when I was on top of the world. Now in my 60's and this take me back to time where life was so easy..
As you get older, you start running on empty but you never forget the good Old days 🤣.
It’s sad young people now stay at home on the weekends. When I was a teen headed to our small town of 2000, I could hear all the traffic of my friends and most of the time tell who was who by their exhaust sound. (Cherry Bombs, thrush glass packs). Now after forty two years of marriage and 4 kids and 6 grandkids, I live 4 or 5 blocks from city hall. I can hear a pin drop on the weekends. No one riding around anymore. That’s how we hooked up, stopping a chick and “parking.” No cell phones, no social media.
Facts!
The older I get the more pertinent this wonderful song becomes, I've told my daughters to play this as loud as possible at my wake.
And I thought I was the only one who wanted this song played as loud as possible at my memorial and three times in succession. It’s my road song. I’ve worn out 2 cassette tape and am working on my second cd.
Gazza, when your time comes, may your memory be a blessing.
Well I hope you’re still with us but if not good song to go out with.
Wont be long now, at our age we are running on fumes... 😆😆😆
Amen!
Thats what I told my kids too
Rocked this on the way to high school, now I'm a grandpa and rocking this tonight.
keep rocking!! Help you stay young.
u still young mr wish u health and wealth
me to
Right on!
Me three
"Looking into their eyes, I see they're running too." Those lyrics define the face of my buddies with me in Vietnam... running too. Doing what needs to be done to survive! God Bless you my Brothers!
Thanks for being the type of American worth fighting for.
Millennial here and just want to say thank you for your service. Because you all went through the war and the draft, my generation was saved from ever having to worry about anything even close. You guys are heroes to many of us who just don't have the loudest voices to say "thank you."
God Bless all of you.
Welcome home, Brother.
Running on empty a 20 year old Marine out of Marine Barracks Washington DC driving on that freeway into Virginia on an early Summer day. With the bright blue sky and sun, the whole world glowing that early summer green. The fresh warm air blowing on my face through the open window. Wearing my pressed uniform with that eagle, globe and anchor. I still remember that stretch of open road down that long slope seemed like I could see for a hundred miles. This song always takes me back to the 80’s. Everything was ahead of me and I was in a race to prove myself. Nothing was impossible and I had no fear with all the time in the world to get there. That’s where I am every time I hear this song. And I hope they play it at my funeral. Because I hope my love ones remember me the way this song reminds me of how I felt that day. Semper Fi
SF Brother! Spent two years at the Barracks in the late 80's. I remember this song on DC101 before a Friday Parade. Good times!
Semper Fi
Semper Fi, Quantico 87-89.
Damn I loved the 70’s...the music and a much simpler time.
I feel that way about the '50s ...
I came up in the 70's, so much great music, life was simpler then, even tho we were young. We had full intentions of bringing world peace, and could not possibly understand why there was "war"...As a whole, we didnt ask for much - we loved our music and each other....but as Bob Segar sang, 'wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then'... We grew up, and things changed drastically, but my heart, soul, and music AND THE 70's live on and always will....
What part if the 70s was simpler, the early 70s with the Vietnam war or the end of the 70s with the "gay cancer", ie AIDS, emerging?
@@helenholt1161 and the hijackings, war in the middle east, troubles in N.I., hyper-inflation, etc. etc.
It wasn't simpler...But I prefer the music.
I still can't believe this is a live track. It's nearly perfect!
Nearly?? You mean TOTALLY!!
Yes! This live recording from way back in the 70's was perfrctly recorded. Flawless, audience noise is imperceptible when the performance begins.
My brother and I were in the audience when those Red Rocks shots were taken in 19. It rained all day so they postponed the show to the following day but around 300 people showed up anyway not having heard about the cancellation so Jackson came out and played probably a half a set. It was fantastic. He was chatting with everyone in the crowd and as you can see, the weather broke and it was beautiful. It was my first visit to The Rocks so I was in awe of everything. Jackson was so down to earth and personable - just a real class act. The next night we came back for the full show. Two days I will never forget.
Far-out..I seen Jackson too. He'll tell a story while he's tuning up I thought he wasn't going to get in tune. So he kept on talking.......
this song is about my life. every word means a lot to me. my story told by J B .thank you friend
Seems like yesterday I was 21 ....a lot older now and think a lot...laugh... cry....searching for I don't know ....man this song is a dose of reality .....God bless whoever reads this..even if you don't believe ....still
I know what you mean. I'm the same or very similar. Especially with the searching thing. I don't feel like anything is fulfilling anymore. There's no peace of mind inside. God bless you too.
your name here is telling... just gotta keep runnin man, keep searching, even if you don't know what you're hoping to find...
MeMyself&I MeMyself&I agree🌸
God bless!
what a great quote
I am 81 years old and Bob Seger still shivers my Timbers his talent is on going , his music will last forever in my heart ❤️
RIP to the great David Lindley. I loved every single thing he played on those classic Jackson albums, but he had no finer platform for his multitude of talents & instruments than the Running on Empty album. I was blessed to see them play together 12 years ago. I got chills. Sad news today.
Im still running on empty 2024😢
Just bought a CD from JB
I'm 55, but I remember the days !
Life is tough Many people running on empty I am
"I don't know when that road turned onto the road I'm on." One of the best lines ever!
"I look around for the friends I used to turn to to pull me through; looking into their eyes I see them running, too." Wow.
Hid lines in Take it Easy are also equally totooable
Totally agree
I don’t either, but I know it’s there
He has such an honest sweet voice for Rock and Roll.❤❤❤
This song is well written, it takes me back to when life was more of a team effort rather than Dog -Eat-Dog. I remember neighbors coming over sitting on the front porch listening to WMMS Home of the Buzzard in Cleveland, those were great times!
I now am an advocate for trying to bring love and unity back to our society. Thank you Jackson Brown for the energy bump! Cheers to all!
You still can find it, but only in the country.
Demographics are shifting rapidly, you cant get back societal trust, unfortunatley
@@woopass2010 I hope you're incorrect, though your sentiment is the greater view. I personally believe that the root of all flames were exhibiting stem from the change of having a dedicated parent at home, or more generally speaking, our lack of parenting.
I had always thought that such was the very root of all problems until I began trying to think of a resolution "how do you tell a society we're lacking parenting, or tell them how important it is, it being the most important role on our planet. White I was thinking on this, President Trump was coming to my neighborhood and he said my answer "we've got to get God back in our lives". From this statement came my new goal.
Thanks for your reply!
@GlennKitchen I wish I was wrong but unless you live in a small town where you know everybody and everybody shares the same culture and ideas its hard to cooperate, look at the big cities you can't even walk around at night without getting robbed or raped, why? Because this isn't the same country as it used to be, both racially and culturally, moving from a smaller town to a bigger city taught me that real quick
@@woopass2010 But again, where does foul behavior come from? When I was in Middle School the worst happening was a student getting caught smoking a cigarette, the only greater event was being caught smoking a joint. Now the worst is shooting up your classmates, your teacher then heading home and taking out your parents. This change comes from a devaluing of life. Where does this come from? From the absence of love a child requires in rearing.
Further, I do agree with you on the big city affect and I believe it's more about those who choose the big city then it is the size of the city. It's all about distractions from the true essence of life with all the hustle and hustle, night life and all.
Great speaking with you! Cheers and may our lives be like the Small Town (John Cougar Melloncamp)
I’m a 20 year old woman who has been very fortunate to grow up with his music. Saw him for the first time when I was 11, got to see him at Woodstock a few years later, and saw him with James Taylor last year. Jackson and James are my family’s all time favorites. My dad and I are essentially the same person when it comes to our personality and our taste in music. My dad’s the whole reason why I knew every Jackson Browne song by the age of like 2. We still always listen to every album song for song all the time, just like when we’d listen to him when he’d be trying to get me to sleep when I was a baby
Born in late '66 to a family that always had music in the room, I heard a lot of Jackson Brown. By the time I was in high school I was turning toward punk and new wave, dating girls with blue hair, and resisting the temptation to reintroduce my ears to the songs that came before. I still listen to new music, but it is getting harder to find gems on the trash covered beach that is today's industry. So when I need music that is just downright perfect, I throw on a Jackson Browne tune. Sometimes it makes me well up a little... well, more than just sometimes.
If I could only go back to the 70s, we had the best music, great singer/song writers. Jackson Browne and Don Henley are my fav's.......
My teen years, wouldn’t trade ‘em for anything.
@@bruceglock7260 I was a depressed wreck experimenting with drugs....when I look back, I had it all and didn't know it. I'm not nostalgic and I don't care to go back to my ways, I'm content knowing, while I didn't realize it then, back in the day was amazing.
Some of my greatest memories love you AMERICA
Thank you UA-cam 😊

Lucky you. That's awesome.
WOW! Just WOW!👍✌️
Cool beans!
Lucky you. Wish I was there !
I can tell he has a great vocabulary.
65 i was 17, 69 i was 21. Best lyrics ever. Put your time stamp on moments that mattered to you. AMAZING!
Summer of 79 I was 16. Got my driver's license and watched the road rushing under my wheels with my newfound freedom and Jackson Browne playing loudly on my stereo.
My story exactly. Right down to the year.

"And that's all I have to say about that."
It’s funny how certain songs become part of the soundtrack of our lives. Great track here!
‘’If it takes all night, that’ll be all right’’. I graduated high school in 1978. That was my yearbook quote. ✌🏽

The perfect song to go on the Great American Road Trip playlist.
I first heard this song in the summer of 1977. I was 15. It spoke to me so strongly even then...
And now, 45 years later, it resonates even more strongly. Loved it then, love it now.
Searched every 100 miles for an AM station playing this song as we drove across the country....
Rest in Peace, David Lindley, Thank you for all of your great music!
This music is so deep and authentic. I named my son after Jackson Brown. The music of my soul.
My uncle recently passed away and the last text I have from him was him sharing this song. I will forever listen to this with a heavy heart.
Sorry for your loss
He's in a better place. Plz keep your head up. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ❤❤❤❤❤
America was at its peak at this time. Jackson seriously embodied all that was cool and those first five albums were truly bloody masterpieces. What a great epoch it was and this song is so evocative. Would love to go back in time to see him live again with that wonderful band - The Section - now known as Immediate Family.
Great memories of great music forever
Then they served up multiculturism, it is Bye Bye Miss American Pie.
I'm from So CA and graduated in 86' but play golf with a guy that was class of 76' at Sunny Hills HS. Jackson Browne also went to Sunny Hills HS, class of 66'. I used to hear this tune, and where he's say "In 65 I was 17""and I'd swap it for in 85' I was 17. Not a huge fan but can totally appreciate his musicianship, and looking back now at all of the great acts from the 70's it amazes me how if you view the music as a whole from say 1967-1980 it's like a big puzzle where the pieces fit perfectly because every group had their specific genre and nitch.
Actually that would make a great jigsaw puzzle if the pieces came together to show all of those great bands!
Long haul trucker back then. This guy and I put in thousands of miles together.
One of the most beautiful songs
Absolutely Brilliant
Cheers
Regardless of your taste in music, this is one of the best songs in music history. In the top 25 for sure, and Jackson Browne's best song. Great lyrics and even better playing.
Agreed. It captures the late seventies perfectly. The promises of the sixties dashed, a country full of uncertainty for the first time. So they just keep going.
As a guitarist of 59 years, with 35 years of playing weekend warrior; along with three years as a recording engineer, producer and musician ... I can say that this is one of the best live rock songs ever recorded. The musicianship and vocalizing are fabulous. And the audio engineering was perfection. My brother put this on his stereo system ... back when there were actual stereo systems that actually sounded good ... a Sansui receiver and a pair of AR3a speakers. The recording engineer in me kept trying to EQ his system to get the best sound out of it. I ultimately quit trying and moved the EQ back to "flat" ... With no added bass of treble, this song was absolutely perfect in every way.
Long live Analog Hi-Fi ✊
I need to repair my sansui 9090db and hpm100 pioneer speakers, music sounded much more incredible with that setup
This is an awesome comment. Thanks for this.
Ima listening to it on a shitty Bose Bluetooth. Still sounds incredible. But I suspect it’s holographic on a good setup. I wonder if it was recorded for quadraphonic?
You're right. I know this tune sounded great driving in my car or on the home stereo. I was picky too. McIntosh with JBL L100s and it sound kind of dull but actually right. Just leave everything in the middle lol.
What a masterpiece! I was born on 3-26-1987 but I love these old masterpieces. I'm a young guy with an old soul. This is one of my faves.🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥🌹🔥
I was the same as you my friend. When I was your age (and a lot earlier, actually) I could listen to lyrics and understand the magnificent wisdom in them. Hendrix, CCR, Janis, the Byrds, Airplane, Starship, Grateful Dead, etc. etc. etc.
You have a wonderful gift and you should use it to empathize with others. Love is the only way.
Another masterpiece - Eagles - Take it to the limit.....
Proud some of our newer generation appreciates great music. ✌🏻 Classic rock will never die, unlike artist from the late ‘80’s on that didn’t have the talent to stay. 3 doors down are an exception :). They are a great band, but that’s just my opinion. Had 4rth row center seats in Tupelo, MS to see them. Dang good show!
Went on a weeklong trip with my best friends and their parents. This song played on the way there. I miss those friends so much. ❤Jodi and Jeff.
I grieve for anyone who associates such a great song with a lot of pain. But there is something about this JB song that both wounds and heals (no matter what our situation).
At the same time....
The heart aches from the beauty and the truth, Twining together...The song helps turn our pain into healing and beauty.... It's also more addictive than cigarettes. I could play it over and over. And I do....
I saw him in concert YEARS ago and it was outstanding!! Flawless, music sounded great, better than the album, but more than anything, he was SO warm, interacting with the crowd, making US feel he was so glad to be there when we were there to see him!!
This song has no meaning: it’s a feeling of melancholy joy. We need more of them.
Theres quite a few bands like that😃 and yes, more is always good 👍
It means everything.
Not my comment, but I loved this person's understanding of it...
"This is from the perspective of an entertainer, a rock star. Starting early in life with no plan and only a dream, he's followed that dream and now he's not so sure that there'll be anything left for him when it ends.
When he says, "If it takes all night, that'll be all right/If I can get you to smile before I leave," he's speaking to his audience. He still loves the life on the road, in fact he calls the road his own, he just doesn't have any control or foreknowlege of where it's all heading.
He's getting older, remembering all the relationships that could've been, and he's realizing the futility of chasing a dream of youth("running into the sun","running blind") when everyone around him seems to be moving past that ("running behind").
Very touching, sung with lots of emotion, definitely a song that was written by Jackson Browne for Jackson Browne, and as such its honesty and intensity shines through" ballzofsnoon April 26, 2002

Keep on keepin on, bro.
I saw Jackson Browne last night in Melbourne. He’s still awesome at 75
This is just one of those songs I’ll never get tired of. This whole album is a masterpiece.
In ‘69 I was 20 a whole life in front of me. In 2022 I’m 73 with a few good years left.
Amen, 64 here and like to think the same😊
69 I was 3yrs old
With you at 72! Still listening to all the legends from the 60's and 70's.
I just stumbled across this and was transported back in time! I’m 10 years younger than Jackson, ( not young) but this era of music shaped my life!!! Thank you!! ❤
Me too, and I'm 20 years younger than Jackson. I play golf with a guy that's your age, class of 76' and he went to the same Sunny Hills HS in OC Jackson did. JB was class of 66'.
So CA
The golden age of the singer-songwriter. Dylan, Young, Browne, Mitchell, Zevon and a handful of others. Seems so far away now. Glad I was there. Going to see Dylan and Young on a trip to Ireland this weekend.
Best music ever!
Zevon, a friend of Jackson browne, was one of the most underrated musicians, people may not want to admit it but Warren, Jackson and the others you mentioned have had a MAJOR influence on many other people
You forgot John Prine rip (They hung out together too)
Eagles
Weren't we lucky to be alive at that time?
Probably the best recorded and performed live song of all time.
My 3 yo grandson has a kid in his class named Jackson Browne….made them all listen to this!!😂😂😂👍❤️
This song penetrates into the very center of my heart and makes time stop, it's the most unique bizarre feeling
Totally agree.
Jackson has always had this effect on me!
Totally feel the same way.....
I want three songs played at the celebration of my life, and this is one of them.
Bee Gees
Jackson's music can always make me feel better, like a song for every occasion. I went to his concert in 78, the ROE tour. I felt so blessed. 2nd row seat center next to the aisle. I could literally stand up and take a few steps as people gathered around the stage. He was about 20 ft from where i was. A 21 y/o girls dream. Rosie was in the band, the music was amazing. I saw him again in 04, a political fund raiser. I wish i had made it to one of his solo shows, i know i would have loved it.
This always reminds me of who I am.
Young people, you should have seen the great times we had here in the United States. Times were so happy, and this song and many others were the soundtrack.
a timeless classic
Yesterday on Veterans Day while coming near the finish line at the Chickamunga Battlefield marathon they were blasting this song over the sound system and could not have been a more appropriate song at that time....Running on Empty!
RIP David Lindley. Extremely underrated musician
Many casual Jackson Browne fans who love “Running on Empty” (the album) et al haven’t heard of the great David Lindley. A big shame.
In 69 I was 12. Remembering the 70’s with this epic song. Now at 62, I enjoy it even more than way back then!
I'm 62 as well , my wife bought the LP when we 19. Luv from the UK stay safe.
I was 21.
In '69 I was 17 and a Jr in High School.
in 69 i was 10. when i got to college in 1977 this album was everywhere, including my own dorm room. now that I"m 60 i feel like the song is catching up to me. runnin' on...runnin' on empty...
IN 69 IWAS 19 FLYING AROUND IN A CHOPPER. THIS IS REAL MUSIC NOT THE SHIT MY GRANDCHILDREN LISTEN TO.
Watched "Forrest Gump" today. Forgot how good it was. Hence I'm listening to this or what I call, real music. Thank God for all the beautiful tunes the 70's produced!
I'm going to watch it again also thank you for the reminder
Haha same the placement of the song was perfect. And what an amazing movie it is one of my favorites
You are Welcome-Class of 71
Just been in Glasgow for the weekend... I swear i heard and saw this man's name mentioned so many times(!!), I just had to come home and check it out. So glad I did!
"I don't know how to tell you just how crazy this life feels".
I have covered this song for decades. Never get tired of it.
He’s an absolutely unique talent. That Jackson 5 cover of Doctor My Eyes is one of my favorite things.
Lyrically a priceless song. Relatable on so many levels especially for those of us who were growing up when it came out. JB's best song IMHO.
I had a girlfriend who loved this song as much as I did. We'd be driving around at night just listening to music, talking, laughing - going nowhere and everywhere at the same time. She said this song was our song. That was so long ago. But I love this song more every time I hear it. Music like this is a fine work of art from a long time ago.

So, what happened to your girlfriend?
This will Always be My Favorite Jackson Browne Song.It Never gets old to me or My Wife.I tell people that I can name that Song in 3 notes if I was told it was a Jackson Browne Song.
@Jackson browne Born 6-24-1959.Running On Empty was the first song of Yours that I heard.The First few notes just caught attention.I didn't even know who You were until I heard this Great Song and Music (Many Apologies).I grew up listening to Country Music,Johnny Cash,Merl Haggard and George Jones,My Parents were big fans of these great Legends.Once I heard Running On Empty I thought what other songs does Jackson Browne sing?So I started looking on Cassettes,remember this was back in the 70s.Couldn't find much back then but Always Loved That Song and The Name Jackson Browne sung it.Fast forward to the CD era and it's alot easier to find The Great Singers and Songs that they wrote and sang.Thats when I bought The CD The Best Of Jackson Browne.I did remember hearing The song Doctor My Eyes.The other songs I've never heard.Once I started listening to them,The Words,I thought Wow this guy really puts alot of thought into His Songs.Been A Jackson Browne Fan ever since Running On Empty but really appreciate the thought and philosophy that goes into Your Songs.Sincerely Mark D. Allen
Omg I ant seem to stop playing almost every night to get my heart pumping and have good nights sleep .. bless him xxx
In love with him for years, still no change
I love this song, and most everything Jackson Browne does. David Lindley is a string wizard who brings this song life!
Jackson Browne's music has always had this reflective, end of an era feeling for me.
What a beautiful song.
Rest in Peace David Lindley, Jackson , your voice is just as smooth as it was in the 70's. I wish I could find an old friend of mine Danny who introduced me to your music 🎶 Jackson. I swear I saw him talking with Mr. Dave after his concert in Minneapolis B4 the Pandemic. God Bless you all. All of you still look and sound fantastic.
Still running on empty, after 66 yrs here at Miramar Beach Fl but still running Amen 2020
Song is absolutely monstrous. It gets your heart beating even if you’re not moving.
So sad to hear about David Lindley's passing. RIP to a monster talent!
Same here Katherine, how are you doing?
This is probably one of my favorite songs from Jackson Browne. I remember hearing it back in the 80s, it still sounds great after all these years later.
Amazing music 🎵🎼🎵🎼🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎵🎶🎵🎼🎼🎵🎵❤
