All That I Need - Shannon Hoon (Rare Version)

[@hooniwonder]

been a hoon and bmelon boys fan since i was 13, and now i am 37, will always be a fan. (in fact when i was a kid, the band wrote me back a fan letter, included the single change. and a letter signed by the whole band and promo photos. that was mind blowing. cheers. to hoon, nel ...all the b.melon boys and his daughter nico! huge fan and proud of it.

[@hellsbells288]

You are so lucky that autograph by shannon hoon mist be worth alot now

[@8vedder3]

Ernesto Torres you cant tarnish sentiment with the all dirty dollar

[@quinnicol917]

+hooniwonder Nel and Nico were at the show Melon did for NYE and NYD and they are such a pleasure. The whole band came to the after party and hung out and drank with everyone. Blind Melon has a familial following all of its own.

[@Hermunkle]

+1 on you friend

[@dharmabum2838]

Wow I can only dream of that now.. he was the best

[@twohitsandjointturnedbrown5404]

One of the most underrated musicians of all time, Shannon Hoon RIP!

[@trecool099]

Most underrated or is it just most people never been lucky enough to hear him :)

[@philjoy6635]

Why am I so obsessed with this band can't stop listening to them

[@michaelpal5807]

They are infectious arent they!! Just LOVE these guys ❤❤❤

[@dunksfordays182]

That's where I'm at right now.

[@omega311888]

the same reason we all are. and it pains us every day that shannon left us so early.

[@dinab7852]

Same here. Very unique sound and voice.

[@dinab7852]

Same here. They're so good & Shannon's voice is so beautiful and unique.

[@haydenhollenbaugh3958]

man...I would give up everything to just sit and listen to him play anything.

[@Hermunkle]

My left nut...

[@dharmabum2838]

Hell yeah

[@clumpydamnit]

Shannon Hoon was an unique individual. We will never have another like him. I am a long time fan. I miss him on the daily.

[@musicandcoffee2853]

Grew up with Shannon, I miss him all the time. Friend of the family and I'll support Nico in her music endeavors no matter what! She's got a great voice and very talented.

[@JimmyPage1973]

Music And Coffee did u guys party a lot and do a lot of blow back in the day?

[@sheripeters365]

JimmyPage1973 kinda insensitive maybe

[@michaelpal5807]

Shannon was BLESSED to have a Wonderful Friend like u!! ❤❤❤

[@oldsoulone7557]

You were a lucky person music and coffee. That is so awesome your a friend of Shannons family. Shanmon seemed to be a such a cool guy, and he's a massive influence on me. Fly high in your galaxy Shannon. And rest peacefully in your sleepy house. Rip

[@marysupernova7780]

I lived near Frankfort IN for an important part of my life, a great friend who played guitar introduced me to this hometown-area musician's legacy. I'll always remember this fella and be grateful to have melted corners of each other's minds through sharing new music and the occasional jam session. Getting to know Blind Melon / Shannon Hoon's work was one of the most memorable times when a person's music scraped across just about the entirety of my soul... Shannon is still so loved to this day, my friends took me to see his gravesite after i told them how obsessed and inspired I'd become. I will always be grateful that i was able to celebrate his memory in such an intimate way, among a few friends who grew up with such a reverance for his art. Indiana has a serious hotbed for musical art to this day! I'm about to make this about something else aside from, but very related to, Shannon's passing. If you continue, please read to the very end. And thank you ☺ My guitarist friend has since passed away as well, he fought hard and might have made it if the medical professionals he tried to get help from didn't discriminate against him for a drug history he already left behind years before. I guess people got used to him being "so and so's kid brother with the problems" for as long as he was, as the opioid issues of the area rose, and they already saw too many cases where folks would shoot themselves in the foot for pills and stuff like that... He deteriorated after a few visits to doctors, that at best deduced that he hurt himself at work, gave him Tylenol and told him to lay in bed til it got better. His his organs began deteriorating from an infection, a few days later he was unable to even stand up on his own and it was clear to all who truly knew him that he was indeed unwell. His wife fought for them to look deeper, but he was already in bad shape. He held on a long time in a hospital bed, mostly out of consciousness, before he passed and left behind his own baby girl and the wife who loved him through it all. Friends of KZbin with excellent taste in music: please help us to end the stigma against people who have used drugs. Please help us end the stigma against people who currently use- if someone you love has a problem, please don't leave their life entirely... By all means please don't enable them or let anyone ever abuse you, but don't cut them out or count them out. Don't look right through them, or let others hurt them when they do ask for help. They need you more than ever, once they're "a known drug user". If someone in your path has a past, if they've done things they aren't proud of and committed crimes in the name of their disorder, please understand they judge themselves more than enough already, they live with the painful outcomes, they recognize the damage they caused as they believed they were only hurting themselves with it, and and they've gotten better despite the disease of total self-annihilation. Please understand that people like Shannon and my friend here did not ever intend to become swept away by that chemical hug that drugs give to a hurting heart. For every person who's addicted, there are 10 old friends who meddled with drugs as well and were able to stop, maybe even pick up again on occasion. A whole lot more people try hard drugs than you'd ever think- from your kid's pediatrician, your supervisor, the super-mom next door, to the CPS worker who brings children to supervised visits with parents working to reunify after developing a drug issue- there are a lot of people who have done heroin and coke than most people would guess. They just didn't have the mental disorder lurking deep in their brain, and could literally take or leave the drugs after meeting them up close & personally. If one person ever reads this and takes my friend's story with them, or remembers what I've asked my fellow lovely listeners to consider, know how truly grateful i am for your time and reflection on this painful subject, one that's now touched more of my generation than it hasn't ❤

[@shadowwolf571]

There will be no other voice than his....no lyrics, sung better..... he is sorely missed, still thought of daily

[@dinab7852]

THANK YOU for this upload! Been on a Blind Melon binge for the past 2 weeks. Shannon was such a talented cutie with an extremely beautiful and unique voice. Such wasted talent 😢.

[@flaviuscountry]

Fuck me, what a voice. If Robert Plant and Janice Joplin made a Rock n Roll baby... Many critics label Blind Melon as one-hit-wonders. No Rain was their only hit, but "Soup" is an album that will stand the test of time. All the notes are perfectly placed. Just a wonderful album

[@bryanmannoia7561]

+Josh Ringler what about change? i'd be shocked if that didn't hit the top ten back in the day. that being said, who gives a shit about hits when you are writing quality songs like blind melon did.

[@madSHKRILLZerrrrt]

Wow, great call on the Plant/Joplin...I have recently concluded that Soup is my favorite album of all time. And BM isn't even my favorite band...definitely top 5 though.. But Soup is just incredible I can only think of a few albums that should even be mentioned in the same sentence.

[@cainej.durbin8253]

Josh Ringler. I was thinking more Janis Joplin and Perry Ferrell from Jane's Addiction. lol but I can hear a little Robert Plant. lol

[@lisaannewoodwood6428]

Josh Ringler

[@MrGamermaster101]

Lisa Anne wood Wood

[@sockmonkey]

Such a massive loss, I will never get over it and here it's about to be 2017.

[@belladeball7747]

CeeMonkey Same here

[@novak387]

Almost 2019

[@LReittinger]

I totally agree, his soul was an old soul...it seems that he carried a weight on his shoulders that was expressed and some how cleansed by his music. Listening to him sing soothes me, he calms me, he inspires me to try to keep on....

[@setpunks13]

man, these guys made gorgeous music. plain and simple

[@DannyHolland-i4u]

One of the BEST........

[@crying_hippy]

I wonder if Vernie would say this to Shannon, I hear something in the pantry? God Bless You Melonheads I'm holding back tears, I haven't listened to all the rares, I have a few in an old hard drive that was sent to me from friends and I save them as gifts, music I have not heard yet is a gift from beyond the grave from Shannon. And now I'm crying with Joy hearing this, it's the second time only, omg, feels so good to hear him man like he just cut this yesterday for me and You and You and You. Patience pays off in times like these, if you can hold onto something precious as a gift for years and years and never open it, or only open one gift a year and put the rest away for another day, if that day keeps coming. Thank You, even though I shed happy and sad tears my upper body burst out in sweat too, all while the vocals of Shannon play with my mind Peace and God Bless

[@samanthaward8890]

His voice is just beautiful so reminds me of janis joplin 😊

[@lauramalizia9636]

Oh thank God finally someone else thinks so to! Amen!!

[@marcof1804]

First time I heard a Blind Melon song I genuinely thought Janis had a second band. Both of their voices are just insanely good.

[@Dannsen7978]

I love Shannon's music, I listen to it everyday.

[@NNDMT33]

Me too.

[@JeffHowell-eh9fb]

He is eternal and will never die

[@zepps88]

All that you need to go from swimming to a freeze, is usually made of the things you don't need, and the enemies will swear another life is nothin' like me. Mmm, shhhh! I hear something in the pantry. Oh, if I was to smile, and I held out my hand, All that I could be now, would you not understand? You know if I'm to benefit, I'll do everything that I can. Oh, I'm hearing something in the pantry. Oh yeah. I'm hearing something in the pantry. (x3) [sweet harmonica solo] Oh glasses so thick, and eyesight so weak, that I reflect my own gloom make my heart begin to beat, I'm owe it for the moment, after that everything's free. Oooh, shhhh! I'm hearin something in the pantry. I'm hearing something in the pantry. (x3) Ooohhh ... de doo de doo doo ... These are just the thoughts in my head. Maybe we'd be better off if we took it off, and painted it red. I never smiled the way that I did today. Maybe it's the palms of my hand that are sweatin' me. Swearing that I will beleive everything they're telling me. I never smiled the way that I did today. Yeah. Everything, everything is gonna be okay. (x2) They're telling me that everything is gonna be okay. They're tellin me... (x3) They're telling me that everything is gonna be okay. It'll be okay (x2), It's gonna be okay (x2), okay.

[@clover5668]

*I never smiled the way that I did today.. everything's going to be ok* 🖤🖤💖💖🖤🖤

[@47microwave]

I've been listening to that song again again again and AGAIN ! I love it

[@sheripeters365]

Still listening Shannon Shannon 2018💔

[@oldsoulone1217]

Sweet dreams Shannon. You are sooo missed by your friends family and fans. Your voice was amazing, your daughter (from a fans perspective) looks to be growing up beautifully, and the legacy you left behind will never be forgotten. ❤️

[@jenniferschreiber7078]

Shannon has helped me so much throughout my life!!! He was amazing.

[@ferociousmonster1982]

Holy crap. I thought I'd heard every live/rare song blind melon had played... this is a new one for me....

[@davidthomas9188]

I play all of your songs at everyone of my shows/festivals.... I will see you very soon brother... Shannon Hoon. Please save me a spot on Music Row... Or even in the wide open corn fields... All i can say is that i like watching the rain, i like watching the puddles gather rain.....

[@chadplace5613]

rip shannon hoon hope ur teaching them angels what singing really is-so much soul

[@masterb86515]

i think this is from the mammoth sessions in northern california ..... thank you for posting this , im running out of different blind melon songs ..... i'd sure like to have my 95 soup demos double cd back..... i lost it when my car got repossessed 5 yrs ago..... frosting a cake , what a great track...... try to find jena krause doing tickled pink as well ...... ive never lost my love for blind melon and syd barrett

[@anotherdaygne]

If I was to smile and held out my hand And opened it now would you not understand Glasses so thick, eyesight so weak I reflect upon the moment It makes my heart begin to beat After that everythings free... Is it just the thoughts in my head That maybe we'd be better off If we took it off and painted it red I'll never smile the way that I did today Maybe its the palms of my hands Swearing that I will believe Everything is gonna be okay

[@johnsanders8234]

In my top 5 artist of all time!! Extremly underated and un heard of group of amazing guys!! Got me thru 4 rehabs and 19 years of hell on earth and still trucking

[@MrBluntsworth420]

That's fine enough..this was great!...I really do miss Shannon Hoon, I'm just thankful we have these recordings to hear his voice.

[@billycole6085]

Not sure why God takes these special ones away from us so early..

[@oakenshanks]

cause they decide to shoot up dem drugs.... i mean come on man.... its not that hard to figure out...

[@mrbillycole1]

oakenshanks Uh yeah, I was speaking on a spiritual / philosophical level. And btw, he didn't die shooting up drugs.

[@mike21302]

billy cocaine / oraly injested

[@bryanmannoia7561]

+Billy Cole he doesn't. shannon left by his own doing.

[@JimmyPage1973]

Billy Cole do u think maybe it was the excessive cocaine abuse perhaps?

[@rooster604]

so much love for shannon.

[@TheOnlyLightISee]

I bloody love this sooooooo much! RIP Shannon.

[@abusethisaccount9633]

Many critics don't know shit about shit. One hit wonders? "No rain" is a weak tune compared to the countless awesome tunse in this bands catalog.

[@Soviless99]

Yee people who criticize blind melon are pretentious people who flaunt more than what they actually know. They are good flaunters!

[@katinlove]

WEAK TUNE? NOOOOO ITS PERFECT AS ALL THE REST OF THE SONG THIS BAND DID.

[@relicman]

exactly, just because that's the only song that FM radio really played, doesn't mean crap! There's so much great music that never gets or got airplay through the decades, but thank God for Sirius radio and youtube. Now we get to hear everyone!

[@kryptkeeper2378]

No Rain was one of my least favorite songs. They had so much good music! And if Led Zeppelin gives you a praise you know your good!

[@marcusaurelius-quinn5737]

Abuse This account Absolutely fucking right... Pity the soulless

[@notimeforhate]

I still try sometimes to imagine the person that he would have become over time, and the music that he would have been able to make. I miss Shannon Hoon more than the other dead rock musicians.

[@lalocasola10]

without a doubt, he is right there on the list of legends lost....no matter what genre or how long they stayed: kurt, janis, ritchie, holly, layne, lennon, whitney, the bopper, elvis, tupac, brad, cash, michael.....all amazing in their own right.

[@kayneisable]

He was so good!

[@newrealization12]

I'm so glad found this version. there is just so much art in this. the emotions. god he was just amazing. I fucking love the harmonica too!

[@Veldrain]

[@alanmeires]

I miss you shannon

[@dleiftfelni]

thank you for sharing this, i had no idea it even existed.

[@oldsoulone7557]

Ive heard this song before, but not this version. The way his voice sounds when his singing 'theres something in the pantry' I dunno why but it almost moves me to tears which is something that someone i don't know has never done before. Bless U Shannon. You were too awesome for this World but we give thanks for your video footage and music and memories, for you have truly proven that even when U die, you never really leave, you've just taken on a new life form

[@nathanmurray7458]

Thank you❤

[@bladada-x7j]

Awesome example of American 90's folk music. Blind Melon (Hoon) rocks...enough said.

[@Samthetoolfan27]

Me too, Blind Melon and Alice In Chains are at a dead lock for my second favorite band but Blind melon wins by just a little bit.

[@rayannchick]

My three year old said mom which bm song is this? I love he knows and loves, Shannon and the band.

[@annettefisher1021]

Omg

[@4Selah]

nice

[@LuxeXx]

Does anyone know where to find the video of Shannon playing this song? Its used as a clip on "behind the music". He uses different chords in that version, which I like better.

[@msppillap5065]

i like this one better tbh

[@SisterLilli]

lol love it. There is somthing in the pantry!

[@RioGrandeHenderson]

¡Gavo that's the best question of them all!

[@zenmen7095]

[@robbie2759]

2019

[@AshlessandAnt]

@ferociousmonster1982 yeah me too.. this song is the shit I LOVE IT !

[@TOOLGODDESSTT]

:) Such a sick sense of humor! like the mystery shannon song

[@77cabral77]

i cant find the tab for this song anywhere

[@gavocrazy]

i wonder what he hears in the pantry?

[@MrEoinduck]

fly away dude... he had soul :)

[@4chuckypoo]

AWESOME/SAD

[@TheTree3]

and who are you are like me?

[@funkyzero]

@IWantToTasteDirtyx3 I knew Shannon before he left IN. We weren't close, just somewhere between friends and acquaintances. I am here to tell you,Shannon was about enjoying life 101%, and at any nearly any cost.Being down on yourself isn't an option he would be happy with, he would find a way to tun it into something fun no matter what.Unfortunately,dope was his method many times. Learn from his life and his words, he would tell you himself if he could: Don't fall in the same trap that he did.

[@LuxeXx]

Anyone know where the video is for this song with Shannon standing in front of a camera? They used a clip of it on Behind the Music. It sounds like he's playing it a bit more aggressive...

[@NotIkeman]

For some reason my urethra started hurting as soon as I clicked on this video.

[@Rustybits]

i wonder how are the lyrics for this version. Anyone?

[@joaojp0077]

Someone have the lyrics and can send me ?

[@flaviuscountry]

Just listen to the song again and again. You'll have the lyrics memorized and be a better person for it. Apologies if English isn't your native tongue.

[@joaojp0077]

By now I know the lyrics. I have memorized then a few months ago.

[@Ostdrossel]

[@newrealization12]

I wanna know how to play this. Is the tuning different than the original? Ahh I'm clueless. Sound like he may have changed the E minor into an E major? Someone please offer assistance.

[@marvs8760]

lyrics please? i can't find one on the internet, i can play the original version on a guitar but it be nicer to sing the lyrics of this version of his :)
