Take it this isn't the same Blossoms that sang in the Elvis '68 Comeback?

Pretty sure, it was him that used to fight against Les Kellett on a Saturday afternoon. |

Yes, that's him alright. Fairfields Hall Croydon if I remember.

Gin Blossoms- My new favourite band!
Til I Hear It From You . https://youtu.be/o7sx32alzeE Thanks for posting on my thread, guys  How come I had never heard of these great bands until now? Maybe it's because I never listen to the radio  |
|
By:
I prefer this MD
Gin Blossoms Hey Jealousy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ah5gAkna3jI |
|
By:
I love it, Johnny. Jack posted the link,above.
I'm getting my Blossoms mixed up here. I'm going to order CDs of both bands for my car. |
|
By:
Great stuff MD, glad you liked that.
Just one more for you if you haven't come across it, this is FABULOUS: Third Eye Blind - Semi-Charmed Life https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyjTrwOMSO4 (You might faint it's so good......) |
|
By:
Ooh good choice, one of my favourite bands, totally underrated.
Follow You Down, Hold me down, Competition Smile are amongst my favourites. Some of their stuff is a bit filler but made up for by the good stuff. Their first 2 (proper) albums, New Miserable and Congratulations are far better than the later two. Doug Hopkins (who wrote Hey Jealousy and a lot on NME) had a drink problem and was fired/left, shot himself  .Acoustic version of Competition Smile here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9oystUFU4cs |

By:
Blossoms and Gin Blossoms are on their way
 Yay! I like Third Eye Blind. Thanks Johnny. I will check them out, too. |
|
By:
There is something about Doug Hopkins being fired in the Youtube comments. Didn't know he'd shot himself
|
|
By:
That's a nice song JC.
|
|
By:
Blossoms ? well it's painting by numbers, that's not good.
|
|
By:
I don't like men who sing that way

something is missing

M_D The reason I posted that one is that it's an acoustic version a lot of people (including fans) probably haven't heard.
It's on their album, and still one of my favourites, but in the non acoustic version. Re Doug Hopkins, he had a drink problem which can lead obviously to depression, but I think he was even more depressed that the Gin Blossoms were hitting big success with singles like Hey Jealousy etc and he had written them. Apparently he got sent a gold disk and hung it up then destroyed it. But to be fair to the rest of them, he was apparently drinking so much they just couldn't work with him anymore, I don't think they did it lightly. |

it's enough to make you vomit. that middle class sh1te.

By:
Thanks, JC.

By:
I didn't really american rock bands had to be part of the "class war"..
 |
|
By:
Think I need some upper class music to cheer me up.
|
|
By:
music for public schoolboys who enjoy wearing their mothers' undercrackers.

Nicked the name !! The first and only Blossoms.

By:
They are called the Gin Blossoms, not Blossoms, not sure why she dropped the Gin Part!
Makes them sound like they should be playing a gig at a side stage at Woodstock, not playing banging rock tunes to a discerning [middle class] audience :P |
|
By:
Wow. Now I am confused. I thought they were two different bands
|
|
By:
They are two different bands. I'm not confused.
|
|
By:
LOL they are two different bands, I didn't click on the links and just saw people listing off Gin Blossoms lyrics and songs :)
Me bad  Ok maybe two great bands, never listened to the other one (but will now, to cover for my sins) |
|
By:
I have discovered two great bands in two days. I'm very happy |

Listen to blossom sing "the stately homes of England, how beautiful they stand "
And Neil Young singing the first line of ' Like a Hurricsne ' ... " once I thought I saw you, in a crowded smokey bar " Now Young wrote his masterpiece in the 70s, 80s ? they will have heard it yep. |
