- Well I've been out walking
I don't do that much talking these days
These days--
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
For you
And all the times I had the chance to
And I had a lover
It's so hard to risk another these days
These days--
Now if I seem to be afraid
To live the life I have made in song
Well it's just that I've been losing so long
I'll keep on moving
Things are bound to be improving these days
These days--
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
This song makes me cry and is filled with such memories of the 70s, it’s almost so beautiful it hurts.
Jackson should have won awards for poetry. Impossible to pick my favorite song by him, but this one is right up there.
He wrote this when he was 16...amazing....
I am grieving right now, not only a death, and a lost lover, but something deeper. I can’t fully name it right now. Could it be America? Could it be so much perennial war? Could it be the planet and how we have made such as stain on it? Could it be some kind of ancient epigenetic tragedy that is inside my genome that I just innocently inherited? It’s partly about something about being alive in the moment right now in 2024. Somehow this song and the tenderness and compassion that it represents - and the sensitivity of the playing and how David Lindley makes that pedal steel cry with that distortion/edge creeping in just nails the sentiment. Thank you, you guys for playing it and for posting it.
You are not alone it’s a pervasive growing awareness of the mess the world has gotten to be 😢
That's not a sideman, that's an alter ego, twin brother of a different mother.
And that beautiful sympathetic drumming from a real great🙏🇮🇪
These days will never be that cool again.☺️
David Lindley was so great. He was so talented yet so quiet.
'Don't confront me with my failures, I had not forgotten them.' Brings me to tears every time. 😢
I love that!!!! So True
David Lindley was just the perfect compliment to Jackson on a hauntingly beautiful level.
How can a song be so sad and yet so beautiful at the same time?
John Prine wrote many like this, too.
@@elizabethlinsay9193Yes, yes he did. Rest in Peace John Prine. You will always be rembered and loved. 😢❤✌️❤️🌼👏👏👏 Thank you for the memories with your songs. They will always live on....❤
Deep true feelings are always beautiful
It's called genius...
David Lindley on Steel- has there ever been a more humble awesome musician ? I love the acoustic version - but this is incredible
David Lindley. A magician. I've heard that he can play any instrument that has strings, even if he has never played it before. He is a masterful musician. He so much enhanced Jackson's music.
He doesn’t have fingers. He has ten little magic wands attaches to two other magic wands.
My eyes fill up when l hear this...these days! Humble! Simple! Perfection!
Oh yes
same. right now.
Just found this song and I was certainly around in 1973! Brings me to tears everytime I play it.
Dont confront me with my failures i have not forgotten them
had not forgotten them
One of the best lines ever.
@@maverik15j That whole verse... "These days I sit on cornerstones and count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend. Don't confront me with my failures. I had not forgotten them." He wrote that at 16... can you believe that? I just can't imagine someone at that age who could've written that phrase... it's a prodigy songwriter for sure... a poet.
@@jland12 seriously??
@@maverik15j i was to correct others grammar or alleged mistakes id have no time to have a life i wrote my spin not a direct quote ,just so you realise english was my best subject at high school thanks for your nit pick i chose to ignore it but these days i have less patience with the spinners of their own stories the embellishers and the urgers.
Incredible that he wrote this at age 16. Never fails to make me tear up
if there is a perfect song, this one has to be it.
Having been blessed to have seen JB 30+ times my wife and I fell in love with his music nurturing our relationship and it still means as much to today as it did when we saw him for the very first time. His music is truly a gift to us all!
He has made my life richer,, God bless his beautiful soul. ❤😊
THE LATE : DAVID LINDLEY'S WEEPING GUITAR(VIOLIN OTHDER SONGDS< TAKES JACKSON'S VOICE & WORDS FLYING HIGH TO THE SKY< EVEN TO OUTER SPACE!!
Just so meaningful and beautiful.
Masterpiece. A song I carry with me wherever I go.
Just so happy I got to see him live in the late '70's 🤷♀️ Everyone, everywhere, had this album 😊😢✌️❤️🌼👏👏👏
First saw him in 1974, teared up then, still makes me tear up now.
RIP David Lindley
Finally saw him at blues festival in Oz 🦘 a few years back with my sis. We had adored him for so long and he didn't let us down. Absolutely sobbed and cried my eyes out. It was so emotional to finally see him play. Love love love him so much!!! Named my gorgeous son Jackson ! Cheers from Oz 🦘
To think he wrote this song at the tender age of 16. Old soul.
ONE OF HIS MASTER PIECE PERFORMANCES( IN MY OWN HUMBLE
AT 1:49, THE LATE DAVID LINDLEY SIMPLY SOARS UP TO THE STARS
Highlight of this concert was Jim Gordon
Saw Jackson in ‘75 at Amphitheatre in Chicago. I remember David didn’t play the slide guitar break and outro exactly the same as on the album for These Days, my fave off For Everyman. I remember telling my friend “well it was great but not as good as the album version”. I later saw an interview with David, where he said he never - couldn’t - do it the exact same way each time. That just wasn’t the way his genius rolled. That says so much about how connected he was to the music and the moment. And I think he laid it down perfectly for the album. One of the best ever in no small part to his playing. RIP Prince of Polyester, you are legendary bro!
Always magical and entrancing all at once, I love this live recording and how David strives to be unique. Jackson's voice is so beautiful and the song so meaningful no matter the times. Thank you for this.
Saw him play this song with John Mayer on the Bob Saget tribute show, beautiful.
I was listening to this and feeling exactly the same. Was it a lost love also or looking back over the years with some regrets. Feeling lost, alone, thinking of people lost a very long time ago. Jackson Brown, amazing!
Simply amazing. What a song , what a way of singing , what incredible musicians .... in could be watching this video forever and ever
What a beautiful soul.
This is pure magic.
I had the privilege to see him in Adelaide Australia in early 80's and have been an avid fan ever since. It's true what lots of people say about him being a poet....absolutely. I couldn't get the Pretender" Album of the Year" on the turn table quickly enough and even now with the CD as well i also have it in my ITUNES play list. At the time David Lindley was with him it was magical.
Great version!
OKAY, THOUGH GETTING OLDER BY THE SECOND, SITE DIMMING, HEARING QUESTIONABLE. ARTHRITIC FINGERS STILL CARESSING VIOLIN & SAX, JAW STILL STRUGGLES TO HOLD TOGETHER MY REPAIRED AMBURCHORE UP, I HAVE TO YIELD TO THIS SONG'S MESSAGE, HAVING PLAYED A BIT FOR PEOPLE & ANIMALS TOO.HERE I AM, HERE I STAY, IF I FALL DOWN, LET ME LAY THIS WAY, STILL ABLE TO HEAR, TAP MY TOES, TAKE JACKSON'S IMAGINARY FANTASY FLIGHT, BOOSTED BY DAVID'S DREAM INDUCING LICKS ON LAP STEEL GUITAR & VIOLIN, PUNCTUATED BY MS. "ROSEMARY BUTLERS' SOARING VOICE, JIM GORDON'S DRUMMING, & THE KEYBOARDIST, BASSIST, & BACK UP SINGERS CONTRIBUTIONS.
Love,love this song!!❤️
I CARE FOR & PROTECT MY 1ST LOVE(SAXOPHONE)
Awesomeness
Classic song from Jackson Browne, thanks Chris.
Hell of a slide playing.
🙏 RIP DAVID
Well, I've been out walking
I don't do that much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do for you
And all the times I had the chance to
And I had a lover
But it's so hard to risk another, these days
These days
Now, if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
Well, it's just that I've been losin' for so long
Well, I'll keep on movin', movin' on
Things are bound to be improving these days
One of these days
These days I'll sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them

🎹🎼🎶🙏🎸 beautiful
PERHAPS JACKSON'S " GREATEST SONG"< THOUGH SO MANY SONGS QUALIFY> FOR MYSELF< IT IS THE COMBO OF J>B., ROSEMARY< WITH THE PIANO/ORGANIST< SUPPORTED BY " DAVID LINDSEY" ON STEEL LAP GUITAR
Spiritual…
Anyone know who played the original guitar solo on the studio version,I Heard it on afterlife for the first time last year, blew me away,,moving
The man that wrote it. Ben many copies
THE " 3" MUSCHATEERS ( JACKSON, DAVID & ROSE MARY BUTLER): LIKE " LARA NYRO"(THAT GIRL COLD SING") & PATTI LA BELLE & THE BLUE BELLES"
MY PARADOX: THOUGH " THESES DAYS JUST GOT LONGRT(DAYLIGHT SAVINGS)< THESE SAME ONES TOO RAPIDLY BECOME SHORTER FOR MYSELF> NO REMEDIES< SOLUTIONS< OUTSIDE & INSIDE(FAMILIAL) ASSISTANCE IS ABLE TO YET COUNTER THIS CURSED PHENOMANOM>
Jackson Browne played at the Boston Garden in 1978. does anyone know where this song was recorded.
comment..
Cameron Crowe said this was Ronnie Van Zants favourite song
