Everyday after school I would hang out in my dad's card store and play MTG with him and the customers. My dad's radio was never changed from the local rock station so I must have heard this song hundreds of times before I even knew what it was. You don't have to know something to love it, to appreciate it. My dad passed away March 24th, 2015. Every time I hear this song, I think of him
Music is special like this. Hope it's gotten a little easier on ya now 6 years down the line. Luckily I still have mine, can't imagine the grief on that day. Keep rocking those memories bud!
I can't count how many times I came here. This is one of the greatest songs I ever knew. Beautiful, heartfelt intro with pounding drums, which I have often hummed while thinking of the future and of life; orgasmically perfect riff, and a flawless voice.
Right? I feel like this would be a perfect song to introduce someone to 90’s rock to. The riff is kickass, but not too heavy, has a great bass line, and a beautiful chorus. Someone who hasn’t heard many 90’s alternative rock songs would probably really like this song.
My dad had this big sound system in our garage whenever he worked on his Harleys or cars or even just mowing the yard that was always on the rock station (that’s sadly been removed today) and man I really love this old rock music he’s still alive today and whenever he hears me playing a song from this era he gets so excited and starts singing along 😅♥️ love ya pops at 23 years old thanks for making me the man I am today 💯 reading these comments reminds how blessed I am to have him around
To anyone still listening we got robbed of so many great musicians and music.... 1. Kurt Cobain 2. Scott Weiland 3. Layne Staley 4. Chris Cornell Among so many other's!!! Thank you for all the inspiring and beautiful music you all wrote!!! RIP in Grunge/Rock and Roll Heaven!!!
When I was growing up my dad would play this song for me all the time!!! Gosh do I really wish the memories. Now I get to show my kids what king of music my dad and I listened to!!! I miss you dad and hope you are in a better place now!!!!! 💖💖💖💖❤❤❤❤
Mason Bennett idk I say laynr should be remembered more than Kurt no disrespect to Kurt but layne was definitely more talented. People better not forget about chris anytime soon he and layne were the 2 best grunge singers
That intro man... It grabs your heart and doesn' let go till long after the song is over. I'm not even being pretentious, I'm speaking from experience. :( It's so beautiful.
THANK YOU SCOTT for giving us that beautiful voice to get lost in some type of human spriit !!! even tho this song is about his addiction it's absolutely beautiful. LONG LIVE SCOTT WIELAND 🤘🤘🤘 REST IN PARADISE 💚💚💚💚
I was a senior in high school when this came out. I was more into metal back then, but lots of my friends had this album. Every time I hear it I’m taken back to the days of riding around with my buddies on a Saturday night, blasting the radio and just enjoying life. 🤘
I don’t know what it is, but when I listen to that intro the nostalgia hits different. I’ve listened to a lot of nostalgic songs but this one has something different to it. Something special. That’s why it will always have a special place in my heart.
I realized recently that this town I’ve grown up in for 20+ years isnt where I want to raise a family. It’s a nice town but i got involved with so many of the wrong people when I was younger and it’s at the point where I’m always running into them and trying to stay straight (I don’t do drugs or get drunk on the daily anymore) and I have the best girlfriend ever who I want to marry and maybe have a family with if the world isn’t so fucked up by then. But this song...this song is what I’ll be playing when we drive off to our new home..where ever it may be...and it still hurts that I’ll be leaving my parents and my brother...and many old faces that I wish things have went better between us...I had many great friends but circumstances come and I came to the conclusion that none of these “friends” matter in the long run nor did they ever truly care about me. So yes, I will indeed be leaving on a “southern train” and still be thinking of all the things that they’ve said to me...
30 something years later ...music doesnt come close to this !!! The entire bass line is incredible, Robert thx for an amazing song... If i ever go to California, this would be the background music...
Scott, thank you so much for the amazing gems you left behind for people to enjoy. Your music really opened my eyes and showed me what real music sounds like. I'm so glad I actually got to see you with STP. Easily the best concert I've ever been to.

Hey the lyrics are so good unlike some other artist such as the lyricsl genius who wrote Everybody in the club be tipsy... Yea everybody in the club be typsy
Words cannot describe how much I love this song, oh wait yes they can. This is one of those songs that I could listen to all day on repeat and not get bored of.
I grew up on this generation of music and because of it the shit that has come out since I've been born has not hit the same. I'm currently sitting in the NICU holding my son trying not to have a mental fucking break down and this song popped into my head I thought I was too good to ever remember the name of the artist(band) or the name of the song growing up so for about a good 45 minutes I've been sitting here in my head lyrics playing and then BOOM STONE TEMPEL PILOTS "PROOF" TO ME THAT IS YU GREW UP LOVING SOMETHING ITLL COME.BACK TO YU🎉❤
Don’t really know what this song is actually about, but ever since I was a little kid, I always envisioned this song as making me feel like I’m on the way to my final destination, whatever that may be. Hard to explain but maybe someone else gets it. Like I’m on my last journey to my final destination in life. And it’s almost like an upbeat but depressing feel at the same time. Almost like I’m accepting my fate or something.
And he was the drug addict.. the song was written from the view of his girlfriend/wife whatever when he was out touring saying he was off the drugs etc andhe was lying... To her
My oldest friend Big John, loved this song and stone temple. We liked to listen to it while we were fishing 🎣 lot's of good times, My deer friend died last summer, and I can say that I miss my old buddy.
God this song reminds of being in the military stationed in Seattle. Early 90's, what a perfect time to be living in Seattle. I met so many good friends there.
The chorus of this piece is sublime. It came out in the fall after Cobain died. When I first heard it, I remember thinking about him for some reason. I was 25 and felt my youth was slowly slipping away, and what a waste it was to lose Kurt. I guess because it has a melancholy feel. Its one of my favorites from the 90's.
Probably one of the greatest songs ever written and performed. Scott Wieland and STP are the most underrated band of this era. Only real followers know.
I remember working security at a Blockbuster Video on Sunset Blvd, just east of Fairfax. They would loop music videos on their TVs and this was one of them. I loved it then, and I love it now. STP was dope. Still is.
Drove home at 3:30 at night pretty drunk had this song playing… the feels the emotion man it’s so raw makes me wanna cry thank you for being there when no one else is
Everytime I here some STP I'm immediately hit with a beautiful sense of nostalgia, so many great memories come flooding back to me as a teenager growing up in the 90s 😁😁 the greatest lyric of all time is "time to take her home, her dizzy head is conscience laden" from their song Big Empty 😀😀
This is the first song I can remember singing along with my son; he was maybe six at the time. That memory is so special to me; he'll be thirty-five this October.

Agreed. Music is a wonderful way to refine and preserve the memories we all have of loved ones who have passed on to the next realm.
lol lit
Good memories
The first 15 seconds alone is enough for me to fall in love with this song
the first 15 seconds feels like the guitar is telling you that no matter what, life will always go on :)
Gian Reyes Right!
Gian Reyes I really like the intro too. I wish this song could've ended with that tune but longer.
Gian Reyes i agree that intro sounded so badass
I love the intro so much too it's sexy
That opening guitar is something that could be listened to on repeat for hours. It instantly evokes a feeling. The first 15 seconds is pure magic.
YES!!
ikr, whenever i play it on guitar it just makes me so happy
that´s bossa nova for you
Definitely, have always felt the same!
Pure nostalgia
Does anybody else think that this is the perfect song to BLAST while driving off into the setting sun?
I sure do!!
It’s a kickass road trip song.
That's what I am doing right now!
Stp Is my road trip music to be honest. I do a lot of traveling for work and when I drive it's usually what's on.
This one and Big Empty
In a Chevrolet Camaro
You lied....Goodbye.. The pause then the drums. Brilliant, an entire life of love and pain in 2 seconds.
One on the best rock n roll hooks of all time.
One of the best choruses ever too
perfect chorus
So many hooks it's all a hook. Spectacular work.
Its a great song its just boring as hell though
GRUNGE!!!
this song will never get old
Amy Ainley right
U damn right
Never!
I'm old now, and just enjoying. It makes me feel young.
Yes... it wont
I can't count how many times I came here. This is one of the greatest songs I ever knew. Beautiful, heartfelt intro with pounding drums, which I have often hummed while thinking of the future and of life; orgasmically perfect riff, and a flawless voice.

Only a white person could think this
it’s not long enough
I don't like it. It's annoying. I listen to it for another reason.
Interstate love song is one of the best tracks that stone temple pilots ever wrote. It got a lot of airplay on the radio.
My 8 year old son put this on in my truck while going to the store yesterday. Then proceeded to sing every word. Damn I was proud lol
🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Now that’s a good son right there
good parenting
So jealous. My step kid only likes gangster, thanks to his real dad.
Then your 8 old son has a crappy taste in music. If it was my son, id throw him out of the car
Robert DeLeo is a highly underrated bassist. The man is a genius and great backing vocals to boot. Show that man some respect.
Okay I showed him respect
Mission passed Respect + $15000
He's definitely one of my inspirations.
Side note: He wrote the song. It was his inspiration that conceived this song.
He is one helluva bassist and songwriter. He just dances in the bass.
He wrote the song with a $25 guitar with nylon strings. That's talent! Undeniable!
One of the best songs of all time imo. This songs speaks to me so deep i can’t explain it
Definitely one of the Best Songs of All Time
The bass line in this song is perfection - in a song that is also perfect.
I can say this aong is one of the best ever. Period
WeAreAllOne ExceptForThatGuy Just learned it! Great bassists create great lines🎶🎸🎶
WeAreAllOne ExceptForThatGuy agreed. The only era of American music that competes was the late 60s to mid 70s.
Check all their songs. Their bass was so strong
WeAreAllOne ExceptForThatGuy word. The cowboy lick, the verse chord structure. Weiland's voice.
I'm 45. This song is still as awesome has the first time the first time I heard it. In my top 5 Rock song of all time. I just love it!
when is your name coming haha
One of the most superbly written rock songs in the past 3 decades! Chills every time
The only bad thing about this song is that it’s too short.
No words have ever been more true
3.14 minutes of awesomeness.
Ditto
Nothing great ever lasted long enough.
good thing there’s a replay button my brother
My dad had this big sound system in our garage whenever he worked on his Harleys or cars or even just mowing the yard that was always on the rock station (that’s sadly been removed today) and man I really love this old rock music he’s still alive today and whenever he hears me playing a song from this era he gets so excited and starts singing along 😅♥️ love ya pops at 23 years old thanks for making me the man I am today 💯 reading these comments reminds how blessed I am to have him around
I've listened to this well over 20 times today and sure as hell ain't stopping anytime soon. THAT INTRO..
my son likes this song and made me miss the 90s. he loves 90s rock and it makes me feel old. but 90s were awesome.
Timeless, absolutely timeless.....
To anyone still listening we got robbed of so many great musicians and music....
1. Kurt Cobain
2. Scott Weiland
3. Layne Staley
4. Chris Cornell
Among so many other's!!! Thank you for all the inspiring and beautiful music you all wrote!!! RIP in Grunge/Rock and Roll Heaven!!!
kurt cobain out of the list
@@carlosmilan8683if u dont think kurt deserves to be on this list ur wrong
No doubt ... and Jim Morrison
Gus Chambers too.
They are the Mt Rushmore of 90s music
When I was growing up my dad would play this song for me all the time!!! Gosh do I really wish the memories. Now I get to show my kids what king of music my dad and I listened to!!! I miss you dad and hope you are in a better place now!!!!! 💖💖💖💖❤❤❤❤
The fact of the matter is that you simply can't top this song. It is one of the greatest songs of all time.
What a voice!! The drums, the bass, just everything. OMG! There will never be another band like STP. I'll always miss you Scott, rip 😢
I was about 18 when this came out. Damn almost 30 years ago. Blink of an eye homie. Hits me in the feels big time
I'm glad I m not a millennium child all the 80s and 90s music kicked ass nothing today comes close to it.
So do you laugh or does IT cry... my favorite line of the song.... I Love It
Man this song is almost 26 years old, and still sound fresh and new. Really like this band
Easily one of the best of the '90s. Instantly recognizable and epic. 👌🏻
"Breathing is the hardest thing to do" :( RIP Scott

Such a sweet era of music. the 1990s and it's music went by so fast.
Aqua Man way too fast..
Take me back home please
You got that wright music in that time wen't by way to fast everything today is crap
amen, brother. Damn I miss it... went by like a warm summers day 😞
The 80s had nice music too
The 90's lasted 10 years, though.
That intro man... It grabs your heart and doesn' let go till long after the song is over. I'm not even being pretentious, I'm speaking from experience. :( It's so beautiful.
I genuinely cannot fathom how someone could dislike this song.
I still rock out to them after all these years. Yup I'm old, but immaculate taste🤌🤘
I love STP...I was in my twenty's back in the ninties listening to this..wow...what a wild ride since then
Scott, im still litsening to this day dude. Thank you.
THANK YOU SCOTT for giving us that beautiful voice to get lost in some type of human spriit !!! even tho this song is about his addiction it's absolutely beautiful. LONG LIVE SCOTT WIELAND 🤘🤘🤘 REST IN PARADISE 💚💚💚💚

Gimme Shelter- The Rolling Stones
the type of intro you play over and over again once you got the CD.. and the type that would bring everyone's attention to the radio when it came on
this and Big Empty have great intros
Words cannot describe how much I love this song, oh wait yes they can. This is one of those songs that I could listen to all day on repeat and not get bored of.
I feel like this is one of the most underrated grunge hits. Not a lot of people talk about it which is a shame cuz it’s a great song.
I think this is one of those songs everyone loves, and everyone recognizes when they hear ... but nobody remembers the name of!
it's sad when a lot of people in the 90s were saying they just ripped off on pearl jam with the singing voice. they were more than that to me.
@@chrismill5303 This sounds nothing like Pearl Jam ... I can understand everything he says!

No, it’s one of their biggest hits and it’s really highly rated
I grew up on this generation of music and because of it the shit that has come out since I've been born has not hit the same.

I feel exactly the same way about this song! It’s so beautiful and fun, but also sad at the same time
The song is about leaving a drug addict who has been saying they would quit and never did.
Total movie moment right there
And he was the drug addict.. the song was written from the view of his girlfriend/wife whatever when he was out touring saying he was off the drugs etc andhe was lying... To her

So glad I grew up with this music.
I get just as pumped and excited since the first time I heard it in 1994 when I was 16!
Hard to find good music like this anymore. Back then it was coming out fast and furiously frequent.
God this song reminds of being in the military stationed in Seattle. Early 90's, what a perfect time to be living in Seattle. I met so many good friends there.
My favorite intro of any song all time
Each initial pull from the strings of the guitar reverberate in the soul, I'm now back in 1995 (when i first heard it). Those were the times
I'm 13 right now but I really wish I was around in the 80's and 90's to hear all of the good music from back then
Ese hombre....!! Esa voz!!! ..Scott I love you!!! Patagonia Chile. 2019.Sonandooooo!!!
No dejo de escucharlo es genial Stone temple Pilots por siempre.
