For Blind Melon, it ends just the way it began ... with the
music. For guitarist Rogers Stevens and bassist Brad Smith,
who moved from their native West Point, Mississippi to L.A.
in early 1989, where they hooked up with Indiana-born
Shannon Hoon, Pennsylvania native Christopher Thorn and
fellow southerner Glen Graham to form the band, their new
and final album, Nico, is a way of closing the chapter and
looking to the future.
In between, there was a dream. And there was spontaneity.
There were great songs and creativity in all aspects of
their musicality that led to them becoming a household
name. Bound together by their music and thirst for
adventure, Blind Melon had that refreshing vitality that
allowed them to grow their fan base the old fashioned way
with in More...

------ About the song Change performed by Blind Melon
Yea this song is great, Shannon Hoon has a great voice and its sad that he is not here to make more great music. he has a very unique voice that just makes people want to listen to him, me and my bestfriend listen to them everyday! these lyrics are deffinetly not correct. So I will try and change them later. RIP shannon :(

------ About the song Mouthful of Cavities performed by Blind Melon
This a great song every song they ever made was great. The best part about their songs is that there is a story behind every song. You all should get the book a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other tells the whole story of Shannon Hoon and Blind melon.

------ About the song Life Ain't So Shitty performed by Blind Melon
Personally, I like the simplicity. The song has a simple message, so it only makes sense for it to not be this big huge multilayered extravagaza of sound. I'm actually kind of glad that it was never developed past the "recording in a hotel room" stage. It's really powerful, and I think the down-to-earth feel of it really makes the song.
inspirational song... | Reviewer: Nicci
------ About the song Change performed by Blind Melon
i have always LOVED this song as well as many others from Blind Melon! This song has always been an inspirational song for me..."and when you feel life ain't worth livin..." I've often thought of these lyrics when I've gotten down about something and they've always lifted my spirits...helped make me feel way better about my situation...and this song inspires me still today when things aren't going as planned. I ADORE this song and I miss Shannon a WHOLE BUNCH!

------ About the song Sleepyhouse performed by Blind Melon
Shannon Hoon was blessed with such a gift. It's just terrible that he had to leave us so early. This song like all of the other Blind Melon song's from the 90's were unique in each their own way. Miss you Shannon.
Sad and depressing. | Reviewer: Ange P
------ About the song Ever Had The Feeling performed by Blind Melon
Shannon was really struggling with his drug addictions when he wrote this song and was missing his wife and newborn daughter while touring.
The theme is dark and suicidal.
I wish I was there to help him.
RIP Shannon Hoon, you will always be in our hearts.

------ About the song No Rain performed by Blind Melon
I wish I would have seen this video sooner. I see myself in that little girl ( I am sure many people do too). No kidding, I now know the source of my depression. I wish I could find that open gate that leads to the field filled with people who are like me and accepting of me.
Classic Song | Reviewer: Deadfoot
------ About the song No Rain performed by Blind Melon
I came across this song a few years ago, totally by accident and I am so glad I did. Whenever I feel down or gloomy I play this and almost instantly it washes away those feelings and leaves me full of joy. I often find myself reaching for my acoustic guitar and playing along.
this song, as well as the whole album is completely amazing. Blind Melon is way too underappreciated, and there music is straight up awsome. FYI if you listen to the guns n' roses song don't cry real closely, the backup vocals are sung by shannon hoon. its a shame he ODed. he had an amazing talent
One of the best albums of its time | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Sleepyhouse performed by Blind Melon
This sone is floaty and filled with a melancholy thats hard to describe without the music. This sone and the entire album is a great sample of the style of music from the early 90's. It's forever a part of my music collection.
One of my all time favorites. | Reviewer: Andie
------ About the album Blind Melon performed by Blind Melon
I couldn't live without this album. I was 10 (and a half) and I was also getting into the Tool album Undertow. (Odd combo, I know) But that is one thing that I will always thank MTV for. That was when things were different on tv and MTV rocked.
And this album was life changing.
If you like it, please listen to Soup and Nico as well. They are underrated by the ignorant masses.

------ About the song No Rain performed by Blind Melon
Most people know this song as the Bee Girl song. So did I until I actually listened to the words. It's so sad that people never took this song or the band as being truly deep and amazing. I just want someone to say to me, I'll always be there when you wake, you know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today, so stay with me and I'll have it made. Simply amazing. Thanks Shannon.

------ About the song Skinned performed by Blind Melon
I just read Thomas Harris' book Silence Of The Lambs and reading that book added something extra to this song. But the song is great. It sounds really easy and simple but when I tried to play it I noticed that it isn't that simple to play as it sounds... It's great how Blind Melon made something this awfull as skinning people sound this funny... :)
So sad | Reviewer: Danielle

I was a bee for Halloween and it is just amazing how many people know the video for this song...that's all I heard all night. This tune and everything that goes along with it is incredible, and people will remember it forever!

to me this song is very encouraging...well maybe if you know Shannon is not here anymore it could sound a bit depressing I guess. I really like this song. I miss Shannon.
