The single most poignant line from this incredible dissertation on the human condition is, in my opinion, "the darkness never goes from some men's eyes". Yet another absolute classic from the greatest band of all time.
None but Jesus! Love this song and the lyrics are so relevant, been listening since ‘88. Just wanted jump on here and say the darkness is real, but Jesus is Love, and He alone can remove the darkness! I am living proof!
there is so much soul in this song I can't even handle it, it gives me chills every time I listen to it. and I have been listening to the dead for a large portion of my life.
My first Grateful Dead song leading me into following the Dead. I thought the song was harder edge (80's rock-like) but was drawn to the lyrics, the meaning, the feeling, and the culture, which became so much more important for me.
my parents bought this album on vinyl when it first came out. In the mid 90's, when I was a teenager, I would jam out to this when I got home from school.
My favorite on the album too💙 they better never remove it!! There will be hell to pay! Thank you so much for sharing it💜 I have it on a few of my playlists. I love every single song by the Dead but I have a special connection with this one. I will NEVER get tired of it💜 Jerry would just want everyone to enjoy the music💜💜💜💜 God, I miss that man😿
The truest, most relevant and utterly haunting line from this song: "the darkness never goes from some men's eyes". A succinct summation of the nature of man in 8 simple words.
One of my fav live songs on that tour. The video backdrop was perfectly over the top awesome as the boys threw down the jams that topped all. A very somber and introspective experience as well. Love is Real Not Fade Away!
This album was released in 1987. I'm holding the original cassette in my hand now. "Released July, 1987" Not only did Garcia play the great guitar on this, he produced it. He produced the whole record.
Here we go again jerry died 8-9 1995 at age 53 in lagunittas -forest gnolls there's no way you could have a cassette from 1987 look it up like I just did
Final Grateful Dead studio album, and they went out with a major bang: "Touch Of Grey," "Hell In A Bucket," and "Throwing Stones" are 3 of their all-time biggest classics. 😊
Bob Schneider built to last was the last studio album. 2 years after in the dark. that my friend is how we got Foolish Heart, Standing on the Moon, Picasso Moon. Most of the songs that appeared on In The Dark were debuted in concert in 1982-83.
i am a young deadhead the lyrics are amazing, its crazy how this was written in the late 80s, and today it is so true as we have come to a crossroads over chossing the greed of humans or saving the beauty of earth
@Ian Walters I agree once you got it in you it's there. We may get caught up in the rat race but just push play and it will all come flooding back...... ☮️
@ Timothy Hall Yeah, you still need that cash to feed that jones. Doctor says he's coming but he's only taking cash. Quite relevant - highly underrated.
I remember spending a week each summer at my grandmas house in Staunton Va, she had cable....and I remember this song coming on MTV w the video of course and I instantly loved the song,, this was about a year before I really started getting into the dead so 88....89 i was hooked....RFK 90 first show....@5:16 is that moment
I first heard this song in 1988 when I bought the cassette. Time to resurrect the "dead". I'm "grateful" I remembered this song. Thank you for posting.
No you didn't this album came out in 1997 jerry died in 1995 so there's no way you heard this in 1988 your a decade behind easy mistake to make I guess?
@@dancalestini9850 Dude, I saw Jerry at Soldier Field in '92 on a miracle ticket. They then went to Deek Creek Music Theater and I saw the set again there, and this song was played. The song led into the most amazing space set I has heard them play. This definitely was released in the mid to late '80s.
"Heartless powers try to tell us what to think If the spirit's sleeping then the flesh is ink History's page will be neatly carved in stone The future's here, we are it, we are on our own On our own, on our own, we are on our own"
Saw the Dead do this quite a few times back in the day before Jerry passed on. It is as relevant now if not more so seeing what is going on around us. You all be cool to each other. 🖖✌️
+Brandon Bowser I know dude that was a fantastic show!!! you won't believe how excited I got when I heard this. Johnny b Goode, Maggie's farm, and shakedown were also big highlights for me.
Now here it is 2021. Look at the human race now. May these words echo through eternity. We're on our own...but this means we have free will to do whats right. We will leave this place an empty stone. May our vibrations bring about the positive change we need to save our mother earth. 🌎 We all fall down.
Incredible! It took 5 people to write it... but they sure did come out with one Fantastic song! And the Dead was the perfect band to record it! Awesome!
They warned us years ago.....but to naive and blind to be awake enough to make the changes we needed to continue. Brace your selves because here we go.....Ashes Ashes...we all fall down.
It's 2019 and were about to face the biggest natural disasters ever ,yellowstone about to erupt the west coast about to break in half ! It's shocking to listen to this album cause it was like they have a crystal ball ! May the love of God be with us all I fear it's about to be really bad we have the final blood moon next week a meteor passing way to close to earth and its about to get real people the Pacific rim has 197 valcano's to date I believe 47 have awoke and more waking up ! MAY GOD BLESS US AND PROTECT US ALL
Ring around the rosie, a pocket full of posie, ashes, ashes all fall down. That was from the bubonic plague. However there is the coming plagues. You see the mass extinctions in the bees n butterflies. The coral devastation. The lions, tigers, elephants, bats etc and more. Politicians, our leaders and people of authority, the rich, the bankers etc. nobody cares about the earth anymore. I'm sure they'll exploit global warming for profits...just like they exploit wars for profit. WAR IS VERY PROFITABLE!!!
@@joelaporte1270 Many of those people give to charity and think that makes them a good person....yet they are okay with killing everything on our planet. Backstabbing fools!

RIP XL-102 (Richmond, VA) They used to play this and other DAMN Good songs on their station. And now, I have stopped listening to 96.5 WKLR since they play the SAME damn songs every day. I thought 96.5 would be a re-incarnation of XL-102 and be an AOR (Album Oriented Rock) Station.
I just heard this song for the first time while watching Game 1 of the the ALDS - they played it at the end of the 5th inning and I Shazamed it because I liked it - pretty awesome song! :)
Weir's greatest! I used to think it was "Playing..." Nah. I also love that this was not grid recording. You can hear that there are two drummers no quantization.

It is, this tune was truly inspired I think
None but Jesus! Love this song and the lyrics are so relevant, been listening since ‘88. Just wanted jump on here and say the darkness is real, but Jesus is Love, and He alone can remove the darkness! I am living proof!
I like "the politicians throwin stones"
And it's all too clear we're on our own
I love this song and it is very clever and well played, but I think you're a little carried away. But I love the Dead too!
a song's message that has grown stronger and more accurate over time
I like you profile terrapin station
Max,
Don't tell Ted cruz
Excellent tune. Powerful vocals by Weir and classic solo by Jerry! Love this song could listen to on replay all day!! ROCK ON!! Peace and Love!❤️
“A peaceful place or so it looks from space, a closer look reveals the human race”
A pretty relevant quote at this very moment considering the current sad state of affairs we find ourselves in
Casy jones was throwing stones and created a ripple into the sugar magnolias. What a trip.
We decimated our planet collectively

“A peaceful place or so it looks from space, a closer look reveals the human race”
Ouch 🤫
Now I need a 'Black Muddy River.
The best Dead song ever done. The lyrics are pure art.
HANDS DOWN MY FAVORITE GRATEFUL DEAD SONG.
The Dead were a band of many talents, greatness at every level
there is so much soul in this song I can't even handle it, it gives me chills every time I listen to it. and I have been listening to the dead for a large portion of my life.
My first Grateful Dead song leading me into following the Dead. I thought the song was harder edge (80's rock-like) but was drawn to the lyrics, the meaning, the feeling, and the culture, which became so much more important for me.
This song brings back memories. Freshman year, first girlfriend, going to San Diego in the back of my dads Camaro. Good stuff.
"We will leave this place an empty stone"
This one's always been my favorite Dead tune
my parents bought this album on vinyl when it first came out. In the mid 90's, when I was a teenager, I would jam out to this when I got home from school.
This is the most helpful band to learn..
You got a real 1 up..! Jam this.!
" By and by again, the morning sun will rise.
But the darkness never goes from some men's eyes... "
Either Bob or John Barlow really love the phrase “by and by”
I love this album. I'd run for hours listening to this album.
Incredibly powerful messages this song has.
Saw them@ compton... tjenny and. Publishing INC. LLC lerner Phillips
Yeah. You still need that cash to feed that jones.
Doctor says he's coming, but he's only taking cash.
Quite relevant message - highly underrated.
@@lizziesangi1602 yes he's only selling you drugs for cash this time because he's not sure you'll be alive in a week to pay him

I love every single song by the Dead but I have a special connection with this one. I will NEVER get tired of it💜 Jerry would just want everyone to enjoy the music💜💜💜💜 God, I miss that man😿
It is an underrated Dead song imfao.
Why would they remove a hit song from an album?
Our world is dying, and we're killing it. Look around, really look. Ashes, ashes, all fall down.
U get yours and I'll get...
Yep look now 😞
I blame China and India
I blame China and other people

RIP John Perry Barlow, 1947-2018.
2019 and it's more relevant than ever, Jerry was a prophet
classichost DUH have you ever heard of ROBERT HUNTER? DUH.
Heroin, I don't any prophets that died from that shit.
@@lizziesangi1602 This song was written by Barlow...
I'm not what you'd call a huge Dead fan but I love this song. The lyrics are beautiful.
Flagged for copyright infringement and excessive fucking awesomeness.

big wheel turning
damn near perfect lyrics and melodies.
One of my fav live songs on that tour. The video backdrop was perfectly over the top awesome as the boys threw down the jams that topped all. A very somber and introspective experience as well.
Love is Real
Not Fade Away!
How great is Garcia's playing on this? Yeah, that great.
Karl Krogmann Garcia died in 95 album released in 97 no jerry in this song BOB did a great job taking over
This album was released in 1987. I'm holding the original cassette in my hand now. "Released July, 1987" Not only did Garcia play the great guitar on this, he produced it. He produced the whole record.
Karl Krogmann
Jerry died in 2007 this was released in 2015 . I have the original bluray in my hand

It was so great he took the day off 😜
Absolutely their best work. Hands down
It is....In a totally different way. But good.
Still holds up in late 2022.....
Final Grateful Dead studio album, and they went out with a major bang: "Touch Of Grey," "Hell In A Bucket," and "Throwing Stones" are 3 of their all-time biggest classics. 😊
Built to Last was the last studio album. It is a great album nonetheless..
Carlos Isais What year did that come out?
Bob Schneider 1989
Bob Schneider built to last was the last studio album. 2 years after in the dark. that my friend is how we got Foolish Heart, Standing on the Moon, Picasso Moon. Most of the songs that appeared on In The Dark were debuted in concert in 1982-83.

There's a Fear Down Here We CAN'T Forget!

I was a Dead-head when this was released. It has more relevance than ever today.
But will forever be relevant

This is my favorite dead song.
Some of Jerry's best guitar work so funky
Very underrated tune...quite relevant in today's times. Another song that got very minimal airplay.
if the spirits sleeping the flesh is ink oh how true ,,
Dead and company tomorrow. I really hope Bob sings this.
and he did it was a great show!

Saw rat dog do this as a closer in front of about 300 at Ziggy's in Winston Salem NC back around 2002-2003
Now here it is 2021. Look at the human race now.
May these words echo through eternity.
We're on our own...but this means we have free will to do whats right.

Incredible! It took 5 people to write it... but they sure did come out with one Fantastic song! And the Dead was the perfect band to record it! Awesome!
"Throwing Stones" by Grateful Dead #Two4Tues
There's nothing like when they get to about 5 min in at a concert and thousands of people start going hard all at once.
They warned us years ago.....but to naive and blind to be awake enough to make the changes we needed to continue. Brace your selves because here we go.....Ashes Ashes...we all fall down.
DarkDancerPapaCosmic that's not the Dead's message; there's always hope, we just need to find it.

Such a timeless song. Very similar vibe to Althea but I've grown to relate to this more
Seen it live, I was not on my own that day. Always awake always around...
Such great lyrics...
People like to throw crap all over this album but I will put this one up against any other one in their catalog as one of the best.
Full of Hope full of grace
This is the definition of “tasty guitar licks”
This was one of my favorite songs live....
definitely a great one ; and of their studio works; was a live gem
I just heard this song for the first time while watching Game 1 of the the ALDS - they played it at the end of the 5th inning and I Shazamed it because I liked it - pretty awesome song! :)

Probably the best song Grateful Dead ever did.
"There's a fear down here we can't forget, hasn't got a name just yet...always awake, always around." If god is for us,- who could be against us
