Remember a family member irritating you by bringing up something from your past. My dad still does it and I'm 59.

Yes

First song of his I ever heard was "Doctor My Eyes," and I thought, Wow, that's different, a little deeper than the usual pop song.......and then I heard this one. He wrote this at 16 or 17? I've been a fan since. This version sounds like a hybrid of the Nico and the Greg Allman versions, if I'm not mistaken this is the original lyric, not choppy like the German chanteuse Nico, but a mellow and bluesy vocal like Greg Allmon. NICE.

For sure!

@@edwardroberts8761 Same here:(

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Mine too mauionion2

Jackson is in his 70s now. He's been singing those lyrics for almost 60 years, but it sounds as if he could have written them yesterday, from the perspective of a person looking back at a long life. Amazing indeed.

Oh, yeah!

Agreed . And he also wrote “ FURTHER ON “ at age 17. Another song with so much wisdom and vision that only an older man can put to words

A person can not think that guys like Jaxson brown are a spirit vessel to connect this music to mankind from some out side spiritual force. Bob Dillion commented on this saying he has no idea where it comes from and he was in some zone in his youth and can’t really feel it now .

65 good days huh

​@Dan Madden

How could a 16-year-old Jackson Browne right the perfect song for a 63-year-old me?

Estoy de acuerdo. Estas canciones nunca van a pasar de moda. I go back in time, damn! Good old times never going to come back! Saludos desde Tj. Mx.

Welcome home hero

Well spoken.

I spoke to a war Veteran yesterday morning... He listed the wars he'd been involved in... Vietnam was one of them in the marines... shame I could spare more time to listen to some of his stories ! I love Jackson Browne and to me he's just as great as Dylan... with lovely melodies in his music ! Dylan is more raw but I love him too as a fighter of PEACE ✌️🕊️❤

Thank you for your service to our country! Be blessed 😇

For real!!

we're all in the same club now... pass the flomax ..

Enjoy the memories y'all & try to continue to make more memories, these days ❤

"I think, most of us , are like Jethro Tull, , Living in the past, and are afraid to face the reality, "Nothing stays the same. " IT seems ,daily, we hear of the passing of another one of our Favorite rock stars, and a piece of us, dies right along with that person. THE separation, is we have these people immortalized, and and embedded in our memories, through our media. THE scratched up 45's , and albums , over played through our teen years, and now, skip so much, they are virtually unplayable. OR the cassettes, and 8 Tracks, that simply self-destruct , through time.... People grow up, and change. But, I think It's hard for us , as fans, to accept the fact, our artists, are changing, too. AND, for too many of them; THEY can't carry a tune, like they did, in their 20's. We see , and hear them, as they were , when we were growing up. Fifty years later; We can barely recognize them. Dell Shannon, before his passing, in his latter years; was unrecognizable, and struggled to hit that high note, he was so famous for, "IN his hit ,Runaway. " Jonathan Edwards, Procal Harum,. Melanie, .... THE same thing. "The only constant in the universe, is Nothing , stays the same." THE media, we play now, is a time stamp, and a fixed piece of time, and something we can control. THE artists moved on; We didn't. and find it hard to accept this change. THESE amazing people, so talented, were a huge part of our lives, and defined us, as we grew up. THEY were connected to our memories , and were a huge part, of we became.

For me I sadly have now have the privilege of perspective. He is honest that he had written this as a boy/man and you can hear that in the lyrics. No one wants to be confronted with their failures, whatever their age.

I think it's true , for most. We see , and hear , them, in their prime. ( 20's) to 30's) , and pitch perfect, and we immortalize them. "Before the big change. " I have heard, too many artists, struggle , greatly to hit the that high note. Dell Shannon, THE Tokens, "The Lion Sleeps Tonight? THE guy nailed High C. Never again. Tommy Roe,"Dizzy.", Jonathan Edwards, " , Melanie , ALL have huge fan bases ,but, even so. THEY are basically unrecognizable. UNLESS, you've been following them , all their lives. They are basically , not the same people, and too many of the class bands are missing key artists, due to death, or other illnesses. I think what t suprized me; was the total amount bands , that simply didn't exist anymore. THAT me feel old. Have I actually became a Legacy ? The death of Gary Brooker, (Procol Harum) , made me realize, life is too short, and we need to grasp, every minute, because, you don't know, when your number comes up?

The answers are clutched deep within the stoic individuality that comprises each of own indivisible conscious individuality. If you're looking for something more than you had when you were discerned all things as a child, then you've been hookwinked into the predatory clutches of stuff outside of your own cosmic dominion. Like Jai Jagdeesch sang for all the children, "know you are loved. Jackson knew he was loved, & I"m grateful for his cosmic recording of the eternal experience....

Great quote

That Line resonated with me too

Some of us were thinking just those thoughts and living just that at 16...

some 16 year olds are deep man.

It was a different time. No internet and lots of down time to think without all the noise of the world today.

So true!! 🇺🇸

A m e n !

Hello Christine how are you doing?

God bless you

Every year! My Friend in the biz should present it, his biggest fan maybe I'm so greatful he turned me on to Mr Jackson Browne who soothes my soul especially during the last 2years a gift really🙏🏽🌾🌹☀️

Is this going to be a reality and if so, when???!!!

OMG! Writing this at 16 what a gifted man.. the line.. don’t confront me with my failures.. I’ve not forgotten.. whew! So talented .

Thanks for your consistent love and support towards me on my page, I really appreciate and can’t thank you enough. Write me with the address above so we can have more positive conversations about music and life in general 🥂💙

Baracades of heaven,also a great!

Dr. my eyes,what a genious!

JB, your poetry has helped me get through life.

I'm 59. Listened to big brothers JB albums.

It is arguably, the best line in a song.

That would make Jackson about a 115 years old....

@@133rip hahaha. The album was in late 70s-early 80…I did the math. This fan is 40 years old something or Jackson is now 115 years old…

Hello Nicole how are you doing?

Hola Nicole👋 mi nombre es Ernesto soy Uruguayo🇺🇾 nací en 1985, cresi mirando sus películas y hermosa musica Americana, como la de Jackson, lo único que puedo hacer es soñar con esas carreteras y lugares paradisiacos como tu lo hacías en realidad en esos años 80 acompañada de tu gran amiga, por esas carreteras perdidas esos caminos sin fin. Muchos saludos desde 🇺🇾 para 🇺🇸✌Nicole👋

@@EM-zx4lq so you didn’t have your own roads to travel and music to listen to in Uruguay.

I’m glad to know your feeling and doing better. Mind if I ask, had you received any of the covid vaccines prior to your heart failure? Bless you

So glad to hear your ok.....

Starwind That’s what I want to know,too. I imagine she did:( so sad and wrong..

@@novakaya Don't try to make this into your crazy conspiracy theory shit.

@@im4everskilled not sure how you mean. Have we met before? Your projecting pretty hard man So in your world the idea that sometimes people have injuries from things like vaccines is a conspiracy theory? You’ll have to explain what you mean man because that seems pretty over the top to me. Are you not able to cognitively hold the concept in your mind that injuries happen from especially newer medical treatments without it being a conspiracy?

It’s natural for him🙏

Hello Rainsongmama how are you doing?

@Austin Howland great

@Austin Howland hi Austin. Where are you? Happy 2022

Saw him with JT at the BB&T Center in Camden NJ in August. A very special concert and evening. The picture over his left shoulder is the photo for the Late For The Sky album cover which I think is one of his best albums.

Saw JB & JT at Bethel woods in August this summer! My favorite performer, JB of all time!

@@ellenmahony2457 Gotta ask; Did he do "After The Deluge" there??
