This was the first CD my boyfriend bought me in 94. He became my husband for 23 yrs. He passed away in 2018. I will always love you Wilson Reyes Jr. You will never fade from my heart or memory my love.
Her song takes me to an out-of-the-body experience reminds me of the most intimate love that I had in my life and how important love is and what the emotion does for us as human beings it listens to a new plane of existence super emotional Scotty
WOW AND OMG That completely explains my my life as I know it today except a except everybody is gone as well on as well so there's no comfortable or or place that at feels loved loved, welcomed wanted wanted or at place I feel like the people the people that I once when I was in a happy happy place in life Thought while listening to their stories of being so alone yet to their stories of being so alone like I am now, comma my God I am so blessed and I so happy I don't a so happy I don't have to feel that pain Now everybody's gone and I am that person lost unloved confused yeast confused and just don't understand pretty much anything anymore
My dad named me after this band and he passed away when I was 5 .he said I would sing like her. & he absolutely adored her songs .now I listen to this song almost daily to feel a embrace of him to me .❤️🩹
There is something both depressing, and effervescent about this song. It wreaks of innocence and nostalgia. It makes me long for a bygone era-The days when i was still in the prime of life. Youth is such a precious gift, often squandered and only truly appreciated in hindsight.
Dont ever give up!!! Anyone!! It will get better!! There is a season for every reason… keep your circle small too. Only surround yourself with good people. I am a testament to having 1000 friends doesn’t make you feel less lonely. Now I only have two or three I trust and I feel much more fufilled. Just words of wisdom, things I have learned in my 43 years.
Melissa, First of all, I’ve always loved that name. Someone told me many years ago that you will only have a few true friends in your lifetime. I’ve been blessed to have been here for quite a few years and I can attest to the veracity of that comment. I can count my true “life” friends on one hand. I have many acquaintances but there are those special few for whom O would give my life if necessary, the most important of which is my wife. Have a wonderful evening and don’t ever think you’re too old for anything!!
I can't agree more, I always had a small circle of friends and last year o had to cut it further, I'm fighting the fight of my life to overcome things, I'm having a bad day, today , my usual isn't snapping me out of it so my music therapy is my last hope. Good luck and all the best, by the way it took you 44 yrs it took me 48 lol, better late than never lol x

Omg you almost made me cry with this 🥺 first of all I’m mad impressed that you were that romantic in the 6th grade! I was in 6th grade in ‘99 and I remember the only thing the boys my age talked about was how hot that new singer Britney Spears was 😆 This is such a beautiful song. I would have DIED (not literally and only in a good way) if some guy (even now in my 30s) gave this to me as a love letter. Then y’all parted ways and reunited and now have this adorable family?? I can’t, I just can’t. I CAN NOT!!!! You’re killing me Smalls!!!! 😭😭
I really love this song. I really love this video. I really love Mazzy Star. My brothers down at my dad's. He can't really talk that clear anymore, he had a stroke a while back. My cousins husband died, and my mom went to Guam to be with her. That's where they're from. Me and my mom along with my brother and father live in Gore, Oklahoma.💚
I feel sorry for anyone that missed the ‘90s. You have no idea how great it was back then. I can remember exactly what I was doing back then and what I was wearing and what my life was like. This song takes me right back to that place and for a split second I can escape this horrible present time.
I lived in a small town. I snuck girls out of their houses at night. I smoked a lot of weed. I listened to the greatest music ever made on earth. I was free. All these years later I come around the old songs here on UA-cam and I remember. I remember who I was and when I was free. I remember the time. The last great American decade. The calm before the storm. I remember holding a girl in my arms late at night and thinking that life was never getting any better and I had to cherish the moment. I was right. As the years flew by I lost people to the ravages of time. I found out what war can cost a man. I learned time has a way of chipping away who you really are until you are a shell of yourself. But I remember. And I hold on to that young man with both hands. A carefree rogue with a quick smile and a devilish demeanor. The real me. My true self.
Yes, absolutely! The 90s was great! You wanted to talk to someone, you called them on the phone. Better yet, you met them out somewhere and actually had eye to eye contact with conversation. It was okay to look like a “normal” person, and thank God there were NO darn selfies!
The 90's were the Best, I spent it all in Houston Tx, I lived hard loved hard and partied harder and I'm still here to remember this! I'm 47 with a wife and kids and all I go back in time once in a while I love it.
Be present. It's the only cure. I know, though; it ain't easy. Tender mercies bleed into the light that shines and colors what is eternally blossoming, pulling you back into the captivity of the mind. Cry it out if you have to, but when you come out of it... BE PRESENT to TRUTH.
I was so depressed during the 90's as a young woman, but now at 51, I feel mostly at peace, confident and light hearted even though our current of affairs is unreal, but we're alive and that alone is a blessing!
WHY THE HECK WOULD YOU BE DEPRESSED IN THE 90S, even tho i was a kid back then and granted everyones circumstances are different, but the 90s looking back in AMERICA at least was so vibrant right... then again you were older so were things from an adult perspective different. rent was at least cheaper and there were more jobs...
a time of coffee shops and book stores and 70's styles and grunge and mood music and the colors Purple, Blue and Gold on interior designs, clothing and music albums
Well, I disagree with the comment about the music. It’s subjective but I think the 90’s were just ok for music, but they had a tough gig following the 80’s. They were better than 10’s and beyond though. They did have some gems but I associate the 90’s with grunge. Agreed this song is one of the gems.
Ah yes, the 90's where everyone was hiding a deep depression due to the bubble economy creating inflated hopes that were quickly dashed as an adult, everyone wished it was the 60's for some reason, and politics were in such cruise control that kids realised they would never get control from the baby boomers. But hey the fashion was cool and the music was dark, and shows for kids and teens basically peaked so it was pretty sick ngl.
@@Spaced92 Speak for yourself...I wasn't hiding any deep depression...I didn't even know what a bubble economy was. Gas was cheap and my life was in its most productive period, and politics were nowhere near as vitriolic as they are now, when it just seems like everyone wants to kill each other.
When my wife and I started dating almost 20 years ago, we would lie in her bedroom for hours, holding each other, talking about our lives, hopes, and dreams, and listening to her Mazzy Star CD over and over again.
This beautiful song brings me back to the incredible 20 years I spent with my late husband, my best friend and lover. To J, I'll love you forever - RIP ❤💔❤
Interesting...not that this song ties both our past lives to our dead lovers...maybe the heartbeats of that toe curling sensuality they brought to us that many never have....but that your's was 20 years ago (2004?) while mine was 36 years ago (1988). Jim was 15 yrs older than me. I turned 18 the year we moved in...bringing his "education" with him...his attentive student. "....faaaade into yoooou..." Though the sound of that voice & music weren't on the airwaves when my memories were created, my soul KNEW exactly what they conveyed when I first did...and I fell to my knees in tears, remembering. Have a feeling it was close to, or exactly like that for you.
Interesting perspective. It hit me way differently before I found out it was about a city culture. I still like it, but it has sadly lost personal meaning.
I can remember blasting this windows down coming back up the coast on a summer night in California after dropping off my girlfriend. If my ex wife knew I thought of that girl every time I heard this song it would have been a wrap. Lol. Hope you’re doing well Veronica, thank you for the memories 🙏😘
Seems like it was a wrap, anyway...lol She is your EX-wife! 🤭 I feel you though, bro...I used to blast it coming up Cabrillo Hwy out of Monterey headed up to Soquel. Shout out to Rachel M. @@27rykou 💖
The Mellow Part About Coming In Late Is All I Remember, I Barely Srarted To Understand 120 Minutes as Well. VH1...Robin Is Bat-Persons Neglectful-Da' SHAZAM!!!
I'm a 51 year old metalhead, but at heart now. In my teens, metal would be all I listened to pretty much. Then as I've gotten older through the years, I've broadened my musical horizons significantly. Playing guitar helped a lot with this, as well. I absolutely love music!
I simply cannot get tired of listening to this song, it touch me like no other songs. A feeling of nostaligia, regrets, longing, a shred of hopefulness and happiness, all sorts of emotions and memories that I thought I had forgotten came forth as a wave each time I listen to this song.
Before 9 11 happened and before smartphones ruined it all, were the last of the good ol'days 🥲 🙏❤️❤️ I was born in 1987 I grew up in the 90s they were 👍 good
There's a word in Portuguese called "saudade." It's like a feeling of nostalgiac melancholy, like there's someone missing from your present that was in your past. And every time I hear this song, I can't help but feel that way.
you really hit it right on the spot i just lost a loved one we grew up together and for various reasons we grew apart but every times we would se each other its was nostalgic remembering all the times we had as kids and now shes gone its hard to cope with this and this song help me shed my tears and remember those memories i will now cherish forever
My little brother passed away just over a year ago. He lost his battle with depression and addiction. When he was alive in his later years, we didn't always see eye to eye but we did share our mutual love of music. This was one of the songs I introduced to him and continued to love listening to. One of those songs you turn on, put it on repeat and just get lost in. I dedicate this song to him so he may find peace on his journey. I love you Sung and miss you terribly everyday.
@@pbc_03 im sorry friend. I have been desperately fighting my wifes heroin addiction for 7 years and im still not ready to give up the fight for the love i know is still inside of her. Hang in there and know youre loved also.
Close my eyes... and I'm right back in 1994, preteen with the world ahead of me. No flaws, no mistakes, no regrets.. Just a world of hopes and dreams ...endless possibilities that have just faded into distant memories....
Sara Haile Yeah, so many feel the same growing up. Then we become adults and much like the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, and large tax returns.. reality slams it’s door in our optimistic faces. We occasionally try to find our younger+happier selfs from time to time but know it’s foolish to dream the big dreams now.
I'm 42. The love of my life just walked out on me on Wednesday. I yearn for this. I spent more of my life with him then any person, loved him more than I loved any any other person. When he hugged me for the last time, all I could think of was this
I can’t reply for some reason but the comment “Here’s to all of us who are homesick for a place that no longer exists”. That might just be the best comment I’ve ever read on UA-cam 👏🏻 ❤
It's called Saudade. "It tears at your heart, that thing that keeps you apart. But I'd rather have had it and lost it, than never to have known it from the start."😀 (P.S.They're my words but I give permission for anyone to use them.)
@@BenitaAzaka Don't tell false information. David Roback was the one who wrote all of Mazy Star's music until his death in 2020, and Hope Sandoval all of the lyrics, and sometimes both since 1988.
This song is a transportation device. One of the most beautifully written and produced songs I've ever heard. So intimate yet so vague. Poetic and haunting. This is a classic all the way.
oh yeah 90s kids you know love We understand it and we've just had our heart broken too many times chasing worldly crushes.. instead of instead of chasing after Godly things! Jesus saves.. I found the truth the life and the way in Jesus. may God bless you and may God bring you close to Jesus Christ Our Savior amen.
a classic.. great memories too.. when love was so raw and pure. now as a man in his 40s like my relationship its bigger then myself.. same girl 😁 yea.. shes still a babe ;)
I was born in 77. As a kid from the 90’s I was in 10th grade when this song dropped. I hadn’t heard it in so long that when I finally heard it again it reminded me of this familiar thing I couldn’t explain. Ironically it tugs at my heart strings because I think about the tragic deaths of some of my closest friends. I’ve lost more friends who were like brothers to car accidents and gun shots. I’m still here and I am grateful for God’s grace and His Only Begotten Son.
This song dropped in September of 1993, and I was 28 years old. Maybe it's just me, but the world seemed a much nicer place. We didn't judge people, like folks do now and we understood the importance of agreeing to disagree. We used critical thinking, and didn't have all the answers at our fingertips. We didn't feel the need to tell the world our every thought and restaurants were full of laughter and voices chatting, instead of people not participating in conversation, because they're staring at their phones. The concert scene was kicking, and the guitar solo still prevalent. We worked for everything we had and we didn't expect a free ride. I got to rock through the 70s, 80s and 90s and to me, 90s alt was right up there, in creativity, as the two decades before.
that world is sill there. get off the internet and volunteer with some community members. plant trees, give shelter dogs some love, go to free community concerts and classes. that's where the good people doing good things are. algorithms boost controversy, that which divides get picked up by a computer program and thrown in our faces. but that does not represent real life, go find out for yourself. kindness and respect will always be reciprocated, hope you can find the good social connections you are missing
So you are 58 or 59...I’m about a decade ahead of you. I really get your comment. We grew up without all this “connectivity” and it was a so much better world. I miss the simplicity of the 80s...it was so much fun!
Even only being 15, I remember my mom playing this when I was little. It was in the summer while I was in the front seat with my hand out the window, I remember she was so pretty and she was smiling and laughing and in the midst of all of it, I hoped life could always be as beautiful as that one moment... (A lil edit 3 years later as an 18 year old, I had zero idea this comment got a lot of attention till someone texted me about it. My mom had gotten sick for a while so I came back to revisit these replies. She's doing much better now though!! We still blast this jam to this day lol. Thank you for all the love and positivity for my lil memory 🖤🖤)
It never gets any better than how you feel about that moment, at least that’s what I think. Remember that feeling when you’re headed in to rough times it’ll help you out.
I'm not a religious person but I like to think that maybe "heaven" is whatever part of your life you cherished the most, and you get to live some version of that again. It's a nice thought I think :)
I wish I could go back to 2008 learn to ride a bike, not see the horror I saw last year and was just having fun, hopefully when we die those things we wish we never saw. But life is worth living just Incase there is nothing after that last moment
Keith Mitchell, Mazzy Star drummer, passed away from cancer. I had the pleasure of knowing him for about 3 years as we dealt casino games together. His drumming style was understated in order to let the vocals & guitar shine. He lived the same way he drummed, never an attention grabber, super nice man. Rest in peace. You will be missed.
@@MichaelAJohnson-c8s Allow me to clarify. This song, in it's hayday, was barely on the charts. It could be heard, in the background, on any radio station. It was however, the "sound" of the '90's. It was pretty for it's time. And a reminder of those of us who were in our prime, it is a soulful reminder of once was. And we know, this is gone forever.
@@rrrt01 Thank you for the explanation. I don't think I was really listening to the radio very much back in the 90s. Had a lot going on but it turned out fine. I will say the 90s were a kinder, simpler time when people talked to each other and laughed and smiled a lot more. Hope you are doing well.
I think of my husband. He passed away in September 2023. We were together for 45 years, met in high school. I miss and love him. A profound loss. Sometimes it is hard to imagine life without him. I love you Bruce. I'll always love you.
Weird, I was driving a UHaul 28 footer alone with most of my family's stuff, through New Mexico at sunset when I first heard this. I'd never even heard of Mazzy Star, but I found this song that touched on my loneliness at that time.
I'm only 17 and I don't have the connection to this masterpiece like most listeners do, but this song came on in class and it reminded me of the times with my dad who sadly passed away last year on this very month. It's heartwarming yet emotional I don't have words for it.
Sorry that you lost your dad at such a young age. Hold on to all those great memories and strive to be the man he would have been proud to have seen you grow into. God bless!
I lost all my dogs man. I’m not the same guy I was, they would surround me and keep me sane. I cry instantly at the thought of the 3 all together. I hope I never lose the memory of them. Crying while writing this. Pain is important. I feel blessed that I could shed tears so easily for my loved ones.
More or less yes this kinda feeling is hard to describe but I'm feeling like I'm time slipping to my younger days everything looked better then. It was just that moment in time for a happy care free time to be different from the norm. I miss it so much.
October 22nd 2024, my 37th birthday and I am here grateful for my experiences and the loves I’ve had lost and will have again. I pray that whoever reads this gets everything in this lifetime that their hearts desire and if they don’t I pray their next life is better than this one. May all of your pain be champagne 🥂🥹🤞🏽
I was born in 1964 so I grew up in the 70s and 80s, but the NINETIES! Oh man, the music from the 90s just had so much meaning. Yet somehow I missed Mazzy Star! Now I have a 15 yr old daughter and she loves nineties music, it's such a great connection we have. She introduced me to Mazzy Star , and she's learning guitar now, so we can play some of these great songs together.
I listened to this as a kid when I felt so alone and my little world was falling apart and now my 20yr old daughter listens to it when she is dealing with life’s curves...Interesting how life comes full circle
This songs brings me back to simple times with my best friend, Doc Martens, flannel shirts and nothing but free time. My friend would sing this song all the time. I sure do miss those times. Now I’m 44 and a mother and have lost track of time!!! Great song!! ❤
I’m 45 and it gives me similar feelings. Strange thing for me is, I heard this song for my first time about a year ago when it randomly appeared in my YT feed, even though it’s an old 90s song. It’s a whole other vibe you can’t forget.
My sister made me a labor & delivery playlist for my first pregnancy. This is the song thay was playing as the midwife placed my newborn on my chest and we looked into each other's eyes for the very first time. The perfect song for a moment so full of beauty and power. 18 years later and I still weep happy tears every time I hear it.
Im 19 and I’m having a babygirl. 🥺I’m so scared cause of the process of birth but I play this song to help me imagine me holding her once I go through all that pain to remind me it will be worth it
I’m surprised more people haven’t mentioned his passing in the comments, perhaps they don’t know, perhaps because he lives on evermore in the swoop of a slide guitar crying like a bird in a cloudless desert night, flying into the hazy mazzy stars of heaven.
Such a haunting song, I’m not quite sure how to describe it other than to say the lyrics perhaps represent someone’s inner struggles with finding that special someone. The lyrics speak of fears, of the unknown as if they represent a person who has witnessed heartbreak and abandonment but who still seeks a deep, meaningful connection with someone.
I am so sorry you have to go through this. When you can, perhaps you can start a tradition in his honor, to keep every year. Something perhaps you shared, or a cause he was interested in that you can help with. I wish I could help, please care for yourself.
This was the first CD my boyfriend bought me in 94. He became my husband for 23 yrs. He passed away in 2018. I will always love you Wilson Reyes Jr. You will never fade from my heart or memory my love.
I hope you find peace.......You are not alone. I lost my wife of 31 years last June. It's been a struggle.
So sorry-prayers for you and your heart
😢
Bless you. So sad for you as I read this
I am so sorry for your loss,,That is an amazing cd he bought you!! RIP Mr Reyes!!
How the hell does one song comfort you and punch in the gut at the same time? This is a masterpiece.
Her song takes me to an out-of-the-body experience reminds me of the most intimate love that I had in my life and how important love is and what the emotion does for us as human beings it listens to a new plane of existence super emotional Scotty

I don't think I will ever understand the enigma this song is
Here's to all of us who are homesick for a place that no longer exists.
God, that's deeper than anything I've read in a long time.
WOW AND OMG That completely explains my my life as I know it today except a except everybody is gone as well on as well so there's no comfortable or or place that at feels loved loved, welcomed wanted wanted or at place I feel like the people the people that I once when I was in a happy happy place in life Thought while listening to their stories of being so alone yet to their stories of being so alone like I am now, comma my God I am so blessed and I so happy I don't a so happy I don't have to feel that pain Now everybody's gone and I am that person lost unloved confused yeast confused and just don't understand pretty much anything anymore
I have become bitter that I was too easily seduced, too naive to understand the price of attachment.
Curled up inside of that space and finally was able to die happy

I SWEAR old songs have the best vibe ever.
Yes they do I was a few months away from turning 31 in 1994 I loved this song then .and now at 61 i still do ,the time went to fast
i didnt even know how old this was until i read the copyright. sounded like everything i listen to
Isto sem sombras de dúvidas! Prova disso é que muitas são regravadas, regravadas, e etc... Parabéns pelo seu comentário!

No my real name is mazzy .my dad named me after the band
So sorry you lost your father so early. He had very good taste. One of the best songs ever.
I love you.
Darkness may at times seem romantic especially when ones emotions are flowing.
Embrace your father and us that grew up with this energy. We love you even if you don't know us.
The saddest part of life is when the person who gave you the most memories becomes a memory
TRUE !
Memories are all we take to the grave. Live to love or love to live. Either way a memory is made
So true. This song makes me miss my late husband more than ever 😥😔
Very poignant x
wow, that's a dagger in the heart sentence........beautiful
There is something both depressing, and effervescent about this song. It wreaks of innocence and nostalgia. It makes me long for a bygone era-The days when i was still in the prime of life. Youth is such a precious gift, often squandered and only truly appreciated in hindsight.
Very apropos my man. I like your adjectives for sure. I once thought this a traditional love song when it came out. I'm now older and much the wiser.
Every man has two lives. The second starts when he realizes he only has one.
By the time you warm up to this tune it's over...
There’s that saying.....Youth is wasted on the young.
I don’t know why but it reminds me of the very early 90s out in the southwest somewhere I’m not sure why

Yes, absolutely! The 90s was great! You wanted to talk to someone, you called them on the phone. Better yet, you met them out somewhere and actually had eye to eye contact with conversation. It was okay to look like a “normal” person, and thank God there were NO darn selfies!
The 90's were the Best, I spent it all in Houston Tx, I lived hard loved hard and partied harder and I'm still here to remember this! I'm 47 with a wife and kids and all I go back in time once in a while I love it.
My heart aches for what was. And what will never be again.
Exactly how I feel like some urgent melancholy
Be present. It's the only cure. I know, though; it ain't easy. Tender mercies bleed into the light that shines and colors what is eternally blossoming, pulling you back into the captivity of the mind. Cry it out if you have to, but when you come out of it... BE PRESENT to TRUTH.

The 90's wasn't a decade it was an emotion! 💞👌😊👍
And that emotion was “slowly dying of a heroin overdose”.
a time of coffee shops and book stores and 70's styles and grunge and mood music and the colors Purple, Blue and Gold on interior designs, clothing and music albums
ughhh@@HappyHands.

Thanks for not saying the dumbass word “vibe.”
The 90's kicked some serious ass. Underrated decade for music... and just in general.
Well, I disagree with the comment about the music. It’s subjective but I think the 90’s were just ok for music, but they had a tough gig following the 80’s. They were better than 10’s and beyond though. They did have some gems but I associate the 90’s with grunge. Agreed this song is one of the gems.
Driver I loved the 90s:-)
The 90s were the best decade by far without question.
The 90s is when the seeds of the satanic progressive movement came out fully into the light
@@Orrphan if you for sure attended high school in the 90s there wouldn't be a doubt in your mind about the best music coming from then.
Ive never heard a song that has haunted ,broke my heart and comforted me all at the same time. Beautiful timeless masterpiece
@scott fisher lol nope 😂
We need to embrace all signs that are sent to us
So true.
@scott fisher I love that song and have been listening to it for decades. The two songs are nowhere close to similar.
Agree
Literally this music has feelings
I wish I could fade into that magical era of 90's. The heart wants what the heart wants. There's no denying 90's was an awesome era to live in.
Wish I could go back to the 90's.
Ah yes, the 90's where everyone was hiding a deep depression due to the bubble economy creating inflated hopes that were quickly dashed as an adult, everyone wished it was the 60's for some reason, and politics were in such cruise control that kids realised they would never get control from the baby boomers.
But hey the fashion was cool and the music was dark, and shows for kids and teens basically peaked so it was pretty sick ngl.
@@Spaced92 Speak for yourself...I wasn't hiding any deep depression...I didn't even know what a bubble economy was. Gas was cheap and my life was in its most productive period, and politics were nowhere near as vitriolic as they are now, when it just seems like everyone wants to kill each other.
I loved the. 90s. Always think about that time
Imho it was awful at the time but in hindsight was much better than now.

When my wife and I started dating almost 20 years ago, we would lie in her bedroom for hours, holding each other, talking about our lives, hopes, and dreams, and listening to her Mazzy Star CD over and over again.
This sounds wonderful, and gives me a nostalgic longing for those days. Thank you for sharing.
Don’t ever stop. Relive those moments as often as you can.

I'm so sorry.
god... :(
Interesting...not that this song ties both our past lives to our dead lovers...maybe the heartbeats of that toe curling sensuality they brought to us that many never have....but that your's was 20 years ago (2004?) while mine was 36 years ago (1988). Jim was 15 yrs older than me. I turned 18 the year we moved in...bringing his "education" with him...his attentive student. "....faaaade into yoooou..." Though the sound of that voice & music weren't on the airwaves when my memories were created, my soul KNEW exactly what they conveyed when I first did...and I fell to my knees in tears, remembering. Have a feeling it was close to, or exactly like that for you.
May his memory always be a blessing to you! I feel your love, and I'm wishing you strength and peace. 🕊💛
This song is like a Very fine wine, it only gets better with Time!!
Interesting perspective. It hit me way differently before I found out it was about a city culture. I still like it, but it has sadly lost personal meaning.
I agree.
I’m 38 and never heard of this song until couple months ago my 14 year daughter was playing it and thought it was a new artist lol.

I simply cannot get tired of listening to this song, it touch me like no other songs. A feeling of nostaligia, regrets, longing, a shred of hopefulness and happiness, all sorts of emotions and memories that I thought I had forgotten came forth as a wave each time I listen to this song.

There's a word in Portuguese called "saudade." It's like a feeling of nostalgiac melancholy, like there's someone missing from your present that was in your past. And every time I hear this song, I can't help but feel that way.
I couldn't figure out how this song made me feel but you said it perfectly! Thank you!
likewise. well said @Thomas patton
you really hit it right on the spot i just lost a loved one we grew up together and for various reasons we grew apart but every times we would se each other its was nostalgic remembering all the times we had as kids and now shes gone its hard to cope with this and this song help me shed my tears and remember those memories i will now cherish forever
Thomas Patton that is a beautiful term. Wish we had one like that in english
Here' another song that has that feeling, named Saudade (by Love & Rockets): ua-cam.com/video/rL07_7wPZK0/v-deo.html
My little brother passed away just over a year ago. He lost his battle with depression and addiction. When he was alive in his later years, we didn't always see eye to eye but we did share our mutual love of music. This was one of the songs I introduced to him and continued to love listening to. One of those songs you turn on, put it on repeat and just get lost in. I dedicate this song to him so he may find peace on his journey. I love you Sung and miss you terribly everyday.

Yeah, so many feel the same growing up. Then we become adults and much like the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, and large tax returns.. reality slams it’s door in our optimistic faces. We occasionally try to find our younger+happier selfs from time to time but know it’s foolish to dream the big dreams now.

They don't make em like this anymore. 90s masterpiece.
This song hits hard for the 90s kids because it was at a time when you yearned for someone so bad it was suffocating and painfully platonic love.
Amen!!
A song you hear when you just imagine holding your crushes hand.
Well put and yes, I still yearn and long for that.
I'm 42. The love of my life just walked out on me on Wednesday. I yearn for this. I spent more of my life with him then any person, loved him more than I loved any any other person. When he hugged me for the last time, all I could think of was this
Oh I hear you I looked around some of the world for it never found it it does not exist.
The 90s wasn't a decade. It was an emotion.
Best comment ever!
Chase...keep in mind that this song is the most emotion-saturated song to emerge in...possibly 30 years before it, and since.
There's an odd truth in this.

I was born in 77. As a kid from the 90’s I was in 10th grade when this song dropped. I hadn’t heard it in so long that when I finally heard it again it reminded me of this familiar thing I couldn’t explain. Ironically it tugs at my heart strings because I think about the tragic deaths of some of my closest friends. I’ve lost more friends who were like brothers to car accidents and gun shots. I’m still here and I am grateful for God’s grace and His Only Begotten Son.

This song dropped in September of 1993, and I was 28 years old. Maybe it's just me, but the world seemed a much nicer place. We didn't judge people, like folks do now and we understood the importance of agreeing to disagree. We used critical thinking, and didn't have all the answers at our fingertips. We didn't feel the need to tell the world our every thought and restaurants were full of laughter and voices chatting, instead of people not participating in conversation, because they're staring at their phones. The concert scene was kicking, and the guitar solo still prevalent. We worked for everything we had and we didn't expect a free ride. I got to rock through the 70s, 80s and 90s and to me, 90s alt was right up there, in creativity, as the two decades before.
We get to curve our little moments of peace in this spinning ball of rock called earth...Just glad I can read people's stories in the comments.
You echo my sentiments one hundred percent!!
that world is sill there. get off the internet and volunteer with some community members. plant trees, give shelter dogs some love, go to free community concerts and classes. that's where the good people doing good things are. algorithms boost controversy, that which divides get picked up by a computer program and thrown in our faces. but that does not represent real life, go find out for yourself. kindness and respect will always be reciprocated, hope you can find the good social connections you are missing
"We didn't judge people" LOL
So you are 58 or 59...I’m about a decade ahead of you. I really get your comment. We grew up without all this “connectivity” and it was a so much better world. I miss the simplicity of the 80s...it was so much fun!

Keith Mitchell, Mazzy Star drummer, passed away from cancer. I had the pleasure of knowing him for about 3 years as we dealt casino games together.

More or less yes this kinda feeling is hard to describe but I'm feeling like I'm time slipping to my younger days everything looked better then. It was just that moment in time for a happy care free time to be different from the norm. I miss it so much.
...Yes💕😌Really puts me right back..
No one will date or marry me I turn age 35 on May 22nd 2020.
October 22nd 2024, my 37th birthday and I am here grateful for my experiences and the loves I’ve had lost and will have again. I pray that whoever reads this gets everything in this lifetime that their hearts desire and if they don’t I pray their next life is better than this one. May all of your pain be champagne 🥂🥹🤞🏽
I feel u n SALUTE u👹👿🇿🇦🖤
My friend was laid to rest today. They played this song at her funeral. She will be missed. Rest easy christy
Thank you. Now I know what one of my funeral songs will be. It's perfect.
❤
I was born in 1964 so I grew up in the 70s and 80s, but the NINETIES! Oh man, the music from the 90s just had so much meaning. Yet somehow I missed Mazzy Star! Now I have a 15 yr old daughter and she loves nineties music, it's such a great connection we have. She introduced me to Mazzy Star , and she's learning guitar now, so we can play some of these great songs together.
1957 ahsome time
especially gangsta rap.. lol
Good one
@@kathygorecke9726 Not for POC, so nah.
Wow we should hook up we would have an ahsome relationship
Top 20 songs of all time. She presents a true love in words and tones that most will never do. Shamed by her loss and her love, she meant it all.
I listened to this as a kid when I felt so alone and my little world was falling apart and now my 20yr old daughter listens to it when she is dealing with life’s curves...Interesting how life comes full circle
If you live long enough, the circular natures of our existence become impossible to miss.
what a beautiful circle. you both have a common ground of comfort :)
om num mu shi vai yu
I do circles around this
This songs brings me back to simple times with my best friend, Doc Martens, flannel shirts and nothing but free time. My friend would sing this song all the time. I sure do miss those times. Now I’m 44 and a mother and have lost track of time!!! Great song!! ❤
I’m 45 and it gives me similar feelings. Strange thing for me is, I heard this song for my first time about a year ago when it randomly appeared in my YT feed, even though it’s an old 90s song. It’s a whole other vibe you can’t forget.
42, mom of two and I couldnt agree more...❤
But, you're a mom with great taste in music. It's still my favorite song.
Thats great story ... Where you from , madam
I listen allot to the songs of the 90's. They were great and simple times and brings back all the great memories with my friends as well.
My sister made me a labor & delivery playlist for my first pregnancy. This is the song thay was playing as the midwife placed my newborn on my chest and we looked into each other's eyes for the very first time. The perfect song for a moment so full of beauty and power. 18 years later and I still weep happy tears every time I hear it.
Im 19 and I’m having a babygirl. 🥺I’m so scared cause of the process of birth but I play this song to help me imagine me holding her once I go through all that pain to remind me it will be worth it
@@nanita7848 good luck! i hope you & your baby have a safe delivery. you got this❤️
@@nanita7848 I think

Absolutely! Thanks for noting the power of this song
Yep ❤️

their
and no
Absolutely haunting and amazing. There will never be another band like Mazzy Starr. RIP Dave.

rip dave mustane
@@hootnannerog Dave Roback not Dave Mustaine
@@gloomweaversband Dave mustaine is dead to me. For no particular reason.
I’m surprised more people haven’t mentioned his passing in the comments, perhaps they don’t know, perhaps because he lives on evermore in the swoop of a slide guitar crying like a bird in a cloudless desert night, flying into the hazy mazzy stars of heaven.
I love mazzy star sm!!!!
Such a haunting song, I’m not quite sure how to describe it other than to say the lyrics perhaps represent someone’s inner struggles with finding that special someone. The lyrics speak of fears, of the unknown as if they represent a person who has witnessed heartbreak and abandonment but who still seeks a deep, meaningful connection with someone.
Well said
Yes
🙌🏽
yup,thats one way to look at it lol beautiful tune
Lol
I lost my step Dad to Covid last week.. he’s more of a father then my biological one.. life is so beautiful and painful just like this song..
Sounds like a great man your blessed to have had him.
I'm so so sorry. Live every moment deeply.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine the pain you are going through. Thoughts and Prayers to you.
RIP to your Step Dad
I am so sorry you have to go through this. When you can, perhaps you can start a tradition in his honor, to keep every year. Something perhaps you shared, or a cause he was interested in that you can help with.
I wish I could help, please care for yourself.
