I sit here alone,goosebumps cover me from head to toe. The voice of Eddie sings to me about the loss of one of my other favorite vocalists. Only Veddor could do justice to the memory of Shannon Hoon. I named my only child Shannon in his memory in 1996.
Jennifer Catalano same Jenn...same. I listen to From Shannon Too you and you and you everyday and am an original Blind Melon fan! Love and Miss you Mr. Hoon!
literally moved to tears. shannon may have died when i was only 7 months old, but he's had one of the greatest impacts on my life. his lyrics are some of the most inspirational i've ever come across. they're part of the reason i'm still here. rest easy shannon, you were truly a beautiful soul
@@coycoberly4162 he definitely was an awesome person and musician ✌🖤 gone way too soon..sadly . he made chris Cornell a fork necklace, u can see it on Chris several times..
Wow. Poor Eddie watching and living through losing so many people in his life. Shannon Hoon to, more recently, Chris Cornell, and many in between and before and, most likely, after.
Did you get to watch the documentary, All I Can Say? It just came out last year, if you see it, I don't want to give it away, but Mike McCready was leaving a voicemail for Shannon Hoon. I really wish both of them could have made it's through that difficult period of life, but Shannon didn't as you know, 😞 I found the documentary to be very healing.
Eddie has had to say goodbye to far to many legends. He has done it with love, emotion and class. Lets hope that he/we get a break from losing those whos flame has far and away much more life to give. Love and miss you Shannon. Side note, I have a 1988 VW van I named in Shannon's memory. Also, follow his daughter Nico. She has done some projects of her own, and is an inspiration all herself.
@@juneblossom4382it’s been 3 yrs since you post this I was always more of a nirvana L7 rancid fan which I will always be here recently I’ve been really really into Pearl Jam older stuff as well as new and I love McCready. He is a bad mother on that guitar and I was going to say thank you I’m gonna watch that documentary tonight after work.
💚 Thinking about and missing you today and yesterday Shannon Hoon ❣️ 24 years ago yesterday the world lost a beautiful soul and an a talented musician, Shannon Hoon of Blind Melon. I miss you all the time and hope you are resting in peace! 💚❤️
He's been on my mind the last week, I watched the documentary , it was very healing. I don't know if we'll ever have another voice and soul like him, God makes us all so original. I'm glad that he had made Shannon.
@@juneblossom4382 , 💗💞✌️🎵🎙️🎤🎶 You're so right & I've felt the same way, even before he passed, that we will NEVER have another voice like that or a person with that AMAZING SOUL that (Richard) Shannon Hoon had❣️ ❤️💙😇💘 "Pea green the feeling!" 💚🍀
beautiful......from one beautiful artist to another.....this is the magic shannon was referring to when he talked about pj. shannon was such a beautiful soul. i know he was smilin a mile wide during this!
3 People I met backstage one night in Nashville, are ALL GONE....Shannon, Mike Starr, and Layne Staley....THAT truely sucks....all because of drugs...now I'm a drug Counselor and a Bail/Recovery Agent...
+Amy Cohen Would it not be beautiful if GNR released the songs Shannon sang on with his voice only. I thank the new headphone technology for letting me hear what he did on those albums for them.
I met him in Nashville in 92 opening for Alice In Chains...talked to him for 25 mins, and got caught by the Cops backstage smoking weed with him...and 3 greats I met that nite are dead from drug abuse....Shannon, Mike Starr, and Layne Staley.....what a bitch...
Shannon is greatly missed. Him and Blind Melon were apart of my generation. Its so sad to see all the deaths that have occured to great music talent. Drug abuse is an everyday battle. To those who have never gone through it they have nothing to say. Its like being trapped in your own hell. Respect the man, who is was and what he went through. Most important, remember what he brought to you and your life. WE MISS YOU SHANNON.
Sitting here listening to this song late at night idk why but i always feel so sad and tearing up every time i think of Shannon i guess cuz he reminds me of me in a way how he always wanted to have fun and live life to the fullest this world will never know what we lost people like Shannon Hoon , Layne Stayle etc etc in my option they were gifts sent from above who in some way by the music they wrote they understood us in a way Shannon you will always be my inspiration and hero R.I.P...
I think the actual tribute song from pj is on the bridge benefit CD , titled bee girl . All I can say is that Shannon is still so influential in my life as my all time favorite lyricist. I love u buddy, see u soon
jeff caliendo well i used to think that eddie wrote that song as a tribute to shannon. it really does fit the circumstances if you listen to it. but yeah, it was about the bee girl and her issues lol. anyway youre obviously a melon fan eh.... thats cool
shannon hoon was the greatest song writer of all time and by far the best vocalist aswell! i saw him right before he died and my god it killed me when he did! R.I.P.! SHANNON HOON!
Shannon was an ideology. Before i started to listen to them i just listened to music. 6th months ago i hear no rain come on a 90s radio station, my mom commented that the lead singer died . I looked up the music video and fell in love with Shannon's character and all of blind melons music. Their Woodstock performance amazed me.Thanks to Shannon i started playing guitar and realized speaking the language isn't the only way to connect with people. Never before have i been captivated and moved by a band and just music in general. I mourn the loss of him as well.
Soviless99 And sir you are the symbol of why music is beautiful, the fact that something can move someone so much and change their lives like shannon has done for you is incredible, and why i love music
Thank you so much, you made feel very good about myself. I feel privlaged to have been moved in such a way. Ive found a greater interest in all the music ive listened to before as well.
My heart lost a piece when you left our world , and have never gotten over it. You changed my path..and Mouthful of Cavities will forever be engrained in me. You are The Soul One xoxoo
shannon hoon was the greatest song writer of all time and by far the best vocalist aswell! i saw him right before he died and my god it killed me when he did!
Such a great one lost way way too soon,Shannon was the most unique person Ive ever seen, Great talent,Great soul, Just simply a great person Rip Shannon Their isnt a day I dont think about you and what music would be today if you were still here
Shannon Hoon and his writings saved my life when I was in treatment....Eddie Vedder makes it feel okay to be where I'm at.....Shannon does the same, but being a different video/song makes it feel okay
Yeah I wish I'd met this guy. Talented dude & a great writer. I look at what drugs did to our 90's musicians. We as a people got royally fucked. We lost some great musicians that it would've been great to grow old listening to their new music. Cheers Shannon & sleep well.
is been a month, and i know is a hard step. Be strong, be brave, life sucks sometimes, but the light is not at the begin, may sound crazy but you sons need you there, not far far away, and you need them more than you think. Being scared is ok, but being brave is the right way.
Yes, drugs are a terrible thing and they have taken a lot of great peoples lives, but with musicians in a sense I think it almost made them write better music because of the level of emotion they had, with their battles with drugs. Blind Melon is my favorite band of all time, and i wish Shannon was still alive. RIP
I sit here alone,goosebumps cover me from head to toe. The voice of Eddie sings to me about the loss of one of my other favorite vocalists. Only Veddor could do justice to the memory of Shannon Hoon. I named my only child Shannon in his memory in 1996.
Shannon Hoon and Layne were my two favorite vocalists. The 90's era was so tragic.
I Love You Shannon Hoon. I Miss You. You were more than any words can say. I listen to you everyday and smile. :) RIP Shann
Yupp!!!!!
Jennifer Catalano same Jenn...same. I listen to From Shannon Too you and you and you everyday and am an original Blind Melon fan! Love and Miss you Mr. Hoon!
👍👍
He left this world far to soon I have had the pleasure to get to know some of his family and visit his gravesite
geeez i want a woman that loves blind melon ,, why has destiny kept me so far to myslef
i miss your voice Shannon :'(
i've been sober about 10 years it's possible god bless you and keep you

I'm proud to be from the same area shannon is from he was awesome and will never be forgotten 😪🖤💋❣
He seemed to be so Genuine and from what footage I've seen of his bandmates...He Was!
@@coycoberly4162 he definitely was an awesome person and musician ✌🖤 gone way too soon..sadly . he made chris Cornell a fork necklace, u can see it on Chris several times..
@@sarahboller5912 Yeah! It's Cool AF!
@@coycoberly4162 it sure is, I just wonder where that fork necklace is now 🤯🖤😢✌
@@sarahboller5912 Nico probably has it. I would hope!

great tribute to Shannon Hoon by the amazing Pearl Jam...
I’ve never been a Pearl Jam fan honestly, but this is beautiful.
One of my favorite singers/bands paying tribute to one of my favorite singers/bands. Fantastic.

ok..crying now..wow rip Shannon
Wherever I see shannon on here I see you. that's sweet of you :)
Alex Hankins hahaha...yes, he's one of my favs 😊
+Amy Cohen mine too :)
3 People I met backstage one night in Nashville, are ALL GONE....Shannon, Mike Starr, and Layne Staley....THAT truely sucks....all because of drugs...now I'm a drug Counselor and a Bail/Recovery Agent...
Jeff Darnell well, you're extremely lucky to have met them! I'd probably give my left arm to do so :(
almost makes me cry everytime I watch and hear this.. rest in peace Shannon
as an avid Hoon fan, this is fantastic! ♡
+Amy Cohen
Would it not be beautiful if GNR released the songs Shannon sang on with his voice only. I thank the new headphone technology for letting me hear what he did on those albums for them.
+Paco Sanchez how did you do that? id like to listen only his voice, not axel's voice
+Paco Sanchez don't cry was the only one was it not.???
+Shanks.... I'm pretty sure it was all 'use your illusion 1'
I met him in Nashville in 92 opening for Alice In Chains...talked to him for 25 mins, and got caught by the Cops backstage smoking weed with him...and 3 greats I met that nite are dead from drug abuse....Shannon, Mike Starr, and Layne Staley.....what a bitch...
Awww maaaaan...put Shannon in Slo-mo with Forever Young playing over it....you sure know how tug at my heart!
Thank you Shannon, never met you but you helped me through some tough times. 🙏 RIP
saw melon for $7 at a bar called Blind Tigers. that's one memory i'm glad i said yes to.
Damn you Eddie you always make me so emotional. Love you man.
R.I.P Shannon
This really pulls at my heart and makes me stop breathing, Thankyou Eddie for doing Shannon's life justice

jeff caliendo bee girl was written before shannon died
I agree , it's more of a bash on the bee girl, or shannon, or both.....
Obviously while he was alive
I didn't mean obviously, like to be a dick , I was just saying I think they got the tribute part confused with the bee girl song....

It's unbelievable how forgotten that band and their singer has become. That incredibly beautiful band should get a lot more respect.
Brought a tear to my eye. Shannon made some amazing art that will be cherished for eternity.
my 4ever friends in passing, and passing friends I to feel you, you still move in my daze away. rest peaceful and awake with Angel Wings
Happy birthday, Brother Hoon. Im sorry that youve missed so much, but I miss you more.
Wow, this is really moving. I love Shannon Hoon.
One of the best voices I can say I've ever heard. Last of a dying breed.
este chico era una promesa del rock para la epoca, y hubiera aportado mucho mas, su voz y su estilo eran unicos, lastima se fue muy temprano..
26YEARS AGO TODAY YOU LEFT US SHANNON HOON,WE WILL ALWAYS LOVE AND MISS YOU! FOREVER YOUNG!
Seen PJam 6 times.
My favorite band since Vs, 93.
