I come running to the shelter of the hangin' tree Down by where the creek runs dry How many boys have hung above me Leaving how many girls alone to cry Alone, alone, alone to cry This cruel wind brings in one last storm I need the shelter of the hangin' tree Branches block drops of mornin' water claims of love are made Flash flood, eternal love Flash flood, eternal flood Runnin', runnin', runnin' past that hangin' tree I come runnin' to the shelter of the hangin' tree Down by where the creek runs wild Drenched by bad bad love Gonna hang myself out to dry Hang myself, hang myself, gonna hang myself out to dry Out to dry, hang 'em high Part the red sea Part it and let me through
Bad singer? I was just thinking how lucky Jeff Ament & Stone Gossard are to have played with some great singers. Between Mark Arm, Andy Wood, and Eddie Vedder.. what else couldd you want.. marks got a great voice.. very dynamic
This 'guy' who you say sucks at singing inspired basically every rock singer after him. Kurt, Eddie, and Layne. They in turn inspired whatever the crap you listen to. Probably some stupid hardcore fanboy. Mark Arm you're awesome!
As someone who grew up with hardcore and still listens to hardcore, I'd say you don't know a thing about what hardcore punks like. Mark Arm is one of the best vocalists of the past 40 years. But what do I know - I'm just a stupid hardcore fanboy, right 😒
Pearl Jam was grasping at the excrement of a long dead scene...so they made flannel shirts cool for nerds but it was after we all were over it. There's a 3 hour time issue if you're traveling, but music took a decade to get from one coast to the other back then. This was the real deal.
No one outside of Seattle would have ever listened to this band or the majority of the other crap bands that came out of Seattle if it wasn't for Nirvana, AIC, Soundgarden and Pearl Jam. And flannel shirts were around long before unshowered Seattle teens decided to start wearing them in the summer. U-Men, Mudhoney, Sonic Youth, Tad...all trash music. I like Green River but they aren't anywhere near as good as what Stone and Jeff did in Pearl Jam. Hell, it's not even s good as BRAD. And if Pearl Jam was grasping what was Nirvana doing? What was AIC and Soundgarden doing?
No. Rest of the country only knew about AIC, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam and fucking Nirvana. There was a whole thing happening here that had nothing to do with them and it was far from hard rock. We never came up with the term grunge and most of us in Seattle who were part of it won't use the word. Grunge was a word MTV used or in an advertisement for Sears selling $60 flannel shirts, stocking caps and ripped up jeans.
I seem to remember a different version years ago with a heavier mix and Mark saying "Don't wanna feel the rain no more", or something like that, over and over at the beginning of the song.
Oh baby that's the sort of guitar sound that might make you quit your day job and just dance around the living room all day long. I mean 0:28 It orders you to listen!
to say that you dont like Pearl Jam is one thing. Saying a band is overrated is a valid opinion as well. But, to say pearl jam sucks makes no sense. You could hate their music, but saying it sucks implies that its either irrelevnt, easily duplicated, un-influential, and lacking of any talent. Pearl Jam is none of thise things. Im not a big fan, I im smart enough to know the difference between sucking, and not liking something.
Hey man! Me too! ;) .. We are from Denmark.. But we already have 3 labels for demo cd's and then we have one of the bigger companies in DK.. But man, I will suport you guys bigtime!! :D
@toocheaptobuyatripod because we are in a world of sell outs to reach out to the younger generation with no sense of music style and people who don't appreciate this kind of music style really and this is very unfortunate.
@laynestaley1990 Not quite, Obviously theres never going to be that particular scene, but there are similar music scenes where they shared what you described, I've toured with a couple of bands from different genres, Hardcore and post-hardcore included. Theres a lot of artists from the Seattle scene that also listened to hardcore btw. I know theres such a thing as preferences too.
To all those arguing the is no new talent, Queens of the Motherfucking Stone Age. People forget about those guys when they say there is no good music nowadays. Green River rocks
Even though Pearl Jam is an amazing band. Going mainstream don´t make you bad. For sure you got the chance to live in Seattle in that particular time, but some of us have the chance to discover this music through other bands like PJ, AIC, SG and Nirvana. Yes they go mainstream and you lost your precious pure scene and for sure you are so advanced that when PJ go out you already... o let me know in what underground avant garde movement where you at the time?
umm..well i don't know who you know but I'd Say Jesus Lizard, T.A.D, Coffin Break, The Gits, Mother love bone, Seven year bitch, Dead moon, u-men... All those guys are great
there may be good music now... but its not like the mainstream would ever find it for you. i dont think there will ever be another scene quite like this one where bands in one city just jammed for fun and found this groove to where they all sounded different but had the same feel. I mean now we have emo and hardcore as the "underground" but no one knows where it came from and theres no sense of brother hood.... and they suck...
No good music anymore? no talent? seriously stop living under a rock or acting like old farts. Theres always good music around and really talented and creative people.
@turydragon well, you have it wrong.. "hardcore" as we know it now is not how it was in the 1980's... now you have to inhale scream and put a break down in every song... hardcore in the 80's was pure underground punk... hardcore today is nowhere near punk... its almost like they try to play metal but they cant because they suck. also, negative chords.... they used to be useful... now i will never ever ever ever use one... ever.
you can definately hear Stone's style of guitar in this song, he is so underrated in my mind..
Green River: The Pioneers of Grunge!
I haven't heard Green River before. I love it. Yes, I have been under a rock.
I come running to the shelter of the hangin' tree
Down by where the creek runs dry
How many boys have hung above me
Leaving how many girls alone to cry
Alone, alone, alone to cry
This cruel wind brings in one last storm
I need the shelter of the hangin' tree
Branches block drops of mornin' water claims of love are made
Flash flood, eternal love
Flash flood, eternal flood
Runnin', runnin', runnin' past that hangin' tree
I come runnin' to the shelter of the hangin' tree
Down by where the creek runs wild
Drenched by bad bad love
Gonna hang myself out to dry
Hang myself, hang myself, gonna hang myself out to dry
Out to dry, hang 'em high
Part the red sea
Part it and let me through
Pure 1970 heavy music sound! That was the straight influence for the first grunge bands. Still sounds fantastic
Such an underrated band. Love the mix of classic rock and grunge.
I love Seattle grunge. From green river to some velvet sidewalk to nirvana and the gits.
Only reason I know about the gits is the lead singer was brutally killed. Seen about it on forensic files
Bad singer? I was just thinking how lucky Jeff Ament & Stone Gossard are to have played with some great singers. Between Mark Arm, Andy Wood, and Eddie Vedder.. what else couldd you want.. marks got a great voice.. very dynamic
Naw son I was talking about dubified89's comment.
stopallot fucking, yes, like I so enjoy listening to other people who have educated themselves on the subject talk in depth about this.
One of my all time favorite vocalist! Mark's voice uhmm yea hauntingly beautiful 💝
true dat !
You forgot the best of them all! Cornell
Didn't you hear? He's a grunge rocker. He doesn't care if you don't care who he is.
This 'guy' who you say sucks at singing inspired basically every rock singer after him. Kurt, Eddie, and Layne. They in turn inspired whatever the crap you listen to. Probably some stupid hardcore fanboy. Mark Arm you're awesome!
Thank you! I really miss "good music"!
'
Really hardcore is the best example you could come up with? Nirvana was influenced by black flag for God's sake. He probably listens to pop or rap
As someone who grew up with hardcore and still listens to hardcore, I'd say you don't know a thing about what hardcore punks like. Mark Arm is one of the best vocalists of the past 40 years.

Grunge is the best era of music
Grunge isn't a musical genre, this is pure 80s hard rock from Seattle
+Rutger van der Meer grunge is musical black tar heroin.
Jason Johnson Sludge. not Grunge. its Called Sludge Metal
This band literally pioneered seattle sound/grunge music
No. Rest of the country only knew about AIC, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam and fucking Nirvana. There was a whole thing happening here that had nothing to do with them and it was far from hard rock.

@@coffinshaker I'll always refer to it as the "Seattle Sound"

@@MidnightStorm4990 Yep still rocking
@@arnott360 Damn man you replied

@@Sumner1028 yep still am
Their music hasn't aged a bit.
yes. Mark Arm is the singer of this band.
This is........ethereal.
Im a 1 week old banana with hands and a proud air guitarist
i love that slow scrape on the guitar string in the beginning
this band has influenced so many other ones, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Queens of the Stone Age and it only has 23,000 views. sad.
People just rape his experiment music and making money.
Now over 100,000; buddy
I seem to remember a different version years ago with a heavier mix and Mark saying "Don't wanna feel the rain no more", or something like that, over and over at the beginning of the song.
mortytoad if you listen carefully , the voice is there at the begining
Gruntruck, Sonic Youth, L7, Alice in Chains, Mad Season, Melvins.
Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, Mudhoney
Oh baby that's the sort of guitar sound that might make you quit your day job and just dance around the living room all day long. I mean 0:28 It orders you to listen!
Bringin back some gooood memories!
fuck, i never feel as much as when i listen to grunge. happiness, sadness, everything in between
Fug, sold this record. Gotta get a vinyl!!

@completeaddiction more than an influence on PJ, two members founded PJ.
This song kicks ass! \m/
Great great great🫠
so much better than QOTSA hangin tree. Green River- Mudhoney - Mother Love Bone were the real deal out of Seattle , long before Nirvana and Pearl Jam.
Pearl jam is green river for lack of a better word! Stone gossard is the talent!
Nirvana is not a Seattle grunge band it's a Olympia-Aberdeen grunge band
@@owlbearfoxbeard1654umm Fairweather and Turner were no slouches either
Great song! tnx for uploading!

Dude, I know this comment is old as hell, but your Dawn of the Black Hearts avatar is awesome.

That was a rhetorical question but thanks.
Melvins, Pixies, Temple of the Dog y Green River los mejores del grunge
the Pixies are amazing!
Omg, you beerfreak! :P

@laynestaley1990 What do you mean by negative chords?
i hate when people label things....quit it!..
it's fucking music just listen and shut..the..fuck ...up...\m/
Stop saying it's grunge,grunge was a fashion trend,Green River is fucking rock n roll goddamn!
This isn't rock n roll.

@pavlovdogs2 I love Pearl Jam.
umm..well i don't know who you know but I'd Say Jesus Lizard, T.A.D, Coffin Break, The Gits, Mother love bone, Seven year bitch, Dead moon, u-men... All those guys are great
@Bolinbabe Pearl Jam does not suck.
That'd be hilarious.
This song sounds like Ace of Spades by Motorhead at some points.
Hear it too, Stone was a big Motörhead fan he put some on the band on them
Who the F U C K thumbed down this song?
Heard this in the opening of Pearl Jam Twenty!
drums at the beginning sound a bit like good enough by mudhoney. this songs way better, though.
there may be good music now... but its not like the mainstream would ever find it for you. i dont think there will ever be another scene quite like this one where bands in one city just jammed for fun and found this groove to where they all sounded different but had the same feel. I mean now we have emo and hardcore as the "underground" but no one knows where it came from and theres no sense of brother hood.... and they suck...
@HardcoreGamer4Ever Haha, take it easy dawg, I didn't mean....
The begining sounds like Time by Pink Floyd only better!
@venusasaboy1991 yea i know
@pavlovdogs2 It's funny, how you say that they are crap. How do you define ''crap''?
LMAO!!!
1:03 start proper :)
peanut butter jelly?
No good music anymore? no talent? seriously stop living under a rock or acting like old farts. Theres always good music around and really talented and creative people.
And I don't care that he doesn't care that I doesn't care who he is :D
Guns And Roses + Nirvana = Green River
When Will You Learn? No dude they suck they are Nothing like Kurt Cobain or Axl you don't know music at all
Hear talk of the shit fucking Guns n roses, in the music of Green River ... Fuck off
@turydragon well, you have it wrong..
