@@badgasaurus4211 I normally don’t respond to such idiotic comments but this is laughable. I made my comment to get “clicks” 🤣. You must be tons of fun at parties
@@gawdawful3378 your comment proves my point. They don’t have a single album on Rolling Stone or Louder “best of” lists. They’ve sold over 10 million records but I believe they are very underrated given their longevity & how their music holds up even today, 20+ years after they started.
This song is so fucking tragic... One of the best songs ever written and you can see the pain in all their eyes, especially in the last 10 seconds of the video. For anyone that doesn't know. Heroin is sold in balloons. Black refers to heroin itself, that is the slang for it on the street. He obviously lost a awesome lover to heroin... "and angels fall without you there" Meaning she would guide angels to do the right thing and they would fall if she wasn't alive. She must have been a beautiful person to all around her. Thats tragic. He also goes over how he almost got hooked on the drug to but was able to pull himself out "almost fell into that hole in your life" I love this song
His ex wife ( Laurie Farinacci) is alive and well in Buffalo NY, working as a soc worker. The song is not about her, but about a friend. Catch Storytellers for the info.
I good friend of mine now owns the guitar he is playing. He also used it in Black Balloon in Alaska. I have a picture of me holding at and have even played it myself. It's definitely a neat vibe every time I hold it.
Always loved this song.I think they look and sound pretty good after all these years .Rock on man...I think its awsome to see these guys still going strong keeping this classic going
What a lad...what a band!!! Just when i thought they couldn’t get any better....just blows me away that gorgeous John that voice that presence .....He is like a fine wine....gets better with age!Hahaa!!....Always loved these guys right from the start....brings back sweet memories of growing up with real music!!! So good to see they are still going strong....still sweeping us of our feet!! Huge Respect💪🙏❤️
Baby's black balloon makes her fly I almost fell into that hole in your life And you're not thinking about tomorrow Cause you were the same as me But on your knees A thousand other boys could never reach you How could I have been the one? I saw the world spin beneath you And scatter like ice from the spoon that was your womb [Chorus] Coming down the world turned over And angels fall without you there And I go on as you get colder Or are you someone's prayer? [Verse 2] You know the lies they always told you And the love you never knew What's the things they never showed you That swallow the light from the sun inside your room, yeah [Chorus] Coming down the world turned over And angels fall without you there And I go on as you get colder Or are you someone's prayer? [Bridge] And there's no time left for losing When you stand they fall, yeah [Chorus] Coming down the world turned over And angels fall without you there And I go on as you get colder All because I'm Coming down the year's turned over And angels fall without you there And I'll go on and I'll lead you home and All because I'm All because I'm And I'll become What you became to me

GGD are a highly underrated band. They got their just do in the late 90’s/early 2000’s but their music has stood the test of time.
In what world is GGD underrated? They have almost 20 top 10 hits and are still doing amphitheatre tours
One can't hear the most overused word in all of UA-cam as underrated.
Underrated my arse. Desperate for clicks

I love this song
You made the song sadder for me 😖
@@gleam6370 In 1999 I read and heard in many places that it was about Robbie's first wife.
Yes this was written for Robbie’s wife who was an addict
His ex wife ( Laurie Farinacci) is alive and well in Buffalo NY, working as a soc worker. The song is not about her, but about a friend. Catch Storytellers for the info.
@@mondayquarterback9174 they’re talking about robbie’s wife not john’s
2023 and still listening 😍🤘🎸
sameee
2024
Up❤
2025
one thing i can't get over from this live performance is robby's 2nd voice. goosebumps!!!
Absolutley friend. Robbies vocal harmonies are fantastic
johnny and robby sound perfect together!
My exact thoughts. The way their voices compliment each other , is fuckin beautiful
Them vocal harmonies, man. Like angels, I tell ya!
time and time, i always come back to see this!
One of my all time favourite songs by the Goo Goo Dolls, right up there with Name and Iris. Such a great band, fantastic performance 🤘😊🤘
I know, right! I find this song incredibly good and the soundscape of the studio version gives me chills man!
Jamie Maher top 3
Damn straight! Same top 3 playlist.
song is awesome but I hate how they dont sing it how it is sung in the original in the part right before the chorus
Me too
goo goo dolls for me is my generation if you still here ure a legend
I good friend of mine now owns the guitar he is playing. He also used it in Black Balloon in Alaska. I have a picture of me holding at and have even played it myself. It's definitely a neat vibe every time I hold it.
Chorus of this song perfect with the best two voices in the industry of all times!
My favorite chorus of all time
Man I just love this band! Still listening and rocking to their song even nearing the end of 2021!
Here with you.
Same
Same here! Im seeing them live this summer for my first time. I can’t wait
a perfect moment in time - this was the very, very best they ever were "... angels fall without you there ..."
GGD is a band that's sound pulls at the heartstrings. He has a beautiful haunting voice
Lovely...powerful....The song this band should actually be known for.
This song reminds me of the summer of 1999….god to go back.
I love this so much, i wish i could have personally witnessed the GGD in this era
Always loved this song.I think they look and sound pretty good after all these years
.Rock on man...I think its awsome to see these guys still going strong keeping this classic going
That snare drum sounds phenomenal.
I hope they get to tour this year 2022, they’ve had to cancel 3 years, because of the pandemic. They need to play to survive. Underrated band!
I've never loved a band as much as I love The Goo Goo Dolls. ☺ They deserve everything in this world. ❤
same here!
The only thing I don't quite appreciate is... their name
What a lad...what a band!!! Just when i thought they couldn’t get any better....just blows me away that gorgeous John that voice that presence .....He is like a fine wine....gets better with age!Hahaa!!....Always loved these guys right from the start....brings back sweet memories of growing up with real music!!! So good to see they are still going strong....still sweeping us of our feet!! Huge Respect💪🙏❤️
There is no one better at harmonizing than Robby. No one.
One of my fav GGD songs!!! But more importantly, can we talk about how perfect Johnny's hair is?! ❤️
I lost a friend to heroin addiction around 5 years ago. This song reminds me of her every single time I listen to it 😢
Still the best song from Goo, and that whole album was great.
One of the greatest bands of all time..Been down with Goo since the late 80's early 90's as a little ass kid.
2024 whos still there
Right here. Twenty years later to the month.
A boy named Goo and Dizzy up the girl are 2 of the best albums ever
Woah this is actually a half step up from the album version, pretty impressive usually it's the other way around
Hard to believe the recording/Live album came off as well as did...monsoon. Goo Goo Dolls rock LIVE.
They both compliment each other in every show. Great to have a partner who you can get along with and perform with for all these years.
The backing vocals makes it soooo good
A lot of people really like Robbie’s backing vocals! Does he has a slow ballad I wonder?
@@beausmith08I do like Robby's voice here and he still got it up to this day
I was at this show! Never forget the rain!
Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking about tomorrow
Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees
A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one?
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon that was your womb
[Chorus]
Coming down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer?
[Verse 2]
You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What's the things they never showed you
That swallow the light from the sun inside your room, yeah
[Chorus]
Coming down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
Or are you someone's prayer?
[Bridge]
And there's no time left for losing
When you stand they fall, yeah
[Chorus]
Coming down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I go on as you get colder
All because I'm
Coming down the year's turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I'll go on and I'll lead you home and
All because I'm
All because I'm
And I'll become
What you became to me
Holy shit they sound good
"Black Balloon" by The Goo Goo Dolls. One of my favorites.
man, this is good
Man this song reminds me of high school, good memories!!
not since 99 luft ballons have we had such an amazing balloon song. :)
Weekly friday night playlist. Still in 2023. So good
Listening 4th July. 19 years on
