Blind Melon-Change(feat Nico Hoon)this clip sums it up folks

Had to make a camera adjustment mid song so sorry about the awkward slice in the middle. Filmed at the Double Door, Chicago 10/16/2007. Also words from Travis and Nel

[@samclarn]

Sweet, brave, baby girl! She's a grown, beautiful young lady now. So glad this video exists to capture this time in her life!

[@johnelvis]

How amazing is that to get up there at 13 years old, brought a tear to my eye RIP Shannon

[@zenpaganwarrior]

12, I believe she would have been. Born 7/11/95.

[@brucebrandy9433]

Shannon passed 20 years ago yesterday, and I just stumbled across this. I saw Blind Melon 10/12/93 opening for Lenny Kravitz. Shannon held the crowd in his hand and We couldn't take our eyes off of him, and he was such a beautiful and magnetic presence onstage. We named our second child Shannon with him in mind. He IS a kindred spirit, and I miss his energetic joy. RIP, Shannon Hoon

[@samclarn]

Baby girl. This will never get old for me.

[@kristhomas6847]

Wow that must be a great feeling for Nico to receive that welcome for her and love for her father from the crowd!

[@oo-ll4vi]

I love this clip so much!!! Thank you for sharing this gem!! Shannon Hoon and Blind Melon gave me hope when the sun didnt shine, when I only wanted to be 16 and free..... and taught me it was okay to dance in the rain, showed me that even I play a part in tomorrow.... even though we can't all stay here forever.... he gave me a gift he gave us all a gift, and through his words and energy, he left me wonderin.... why did you leave us so soon?...... and so I say good byyye.... Love you Shannon Hoon!!!!Great job Nico...... My husband died from cancer when our daughter was 4 days old nearly 13 years ago... this clip warmed my heart but did bring on the tears a bit ❤️ I wish I could have see Blind Melon live but I am so stoked you got to see his legacy (band and kiddo) here at this show :) peace and good times to all!!!

[@danielleminery5258]

Nico your dad would be so proud I know I am great tribute

[@atlasshrugged2u]

Aww, look how beautiful she is. Too bad Shannon wasn't around to see her :(

[@atravelerofbothtimespace4172]

Saw them on this tour it was a beautiful surprise to see her up there . Shy but strong at 13 and sharing in her father's legacy . Very special thing 💞

[@juneblossom4382]

Shes so awesome, super brave. Nice of the crowd to help, she did great!

[@ElvisandAmy8]

😭oh goodness this touched me so much !!!!!! Tears !AWE baby Blue ❤ !!! Shannon is missed big time !!

[@darreionatkins741]

I honestly have no words. This is simply amazing!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!

[@haleyhale99]

That brought tears to my eyes! I know Shannon was smiling down on Nico during that performance!

[@darthdomm]

Wow! This actually made me shed a few tears. God bless you Nico. Very nice tribute to your amazing Dad . . .

[@michelleadams6598]

wow!!! tears for sure!!!

[@joescott778]

Wish the crowd would let Nico sing.

[@thetrollslayermaga1492]

I don't know who has read weilands ex wife's article in RS but with that article in mind, this is the reason people such as myself look up to musicians who may or may not have lived in accordance to society's standard. Because the music has a powerful message. RIP Shannon

[@michaelarnold1672]

I could hear her sing , she's Awesome love you NICO , Providence, R. I. usa

[@jwb222]

Absolutely beautiful. Thanks so much for posting this man. Every time I listen to this it makes me feel sad. I wish I could have seen Blind Melon live. RIP Shannon.

[@piranhaowner1967]

Legendary....... Beautiful............

[@RobShu]

Nico, I think your daddy would be proud. This song is one of my all time faves. The lyrics are so in your face and raw, it's just an incredible song. Shannon was an amazing songwriter, and I really could relate to him and where he was coming from. It was a very sad day in rock -n- roll history when he went to heaven. We miss him very much. Even though he's gone, the music will live on in our hearts eternally. Hope to see you out there singin' some day, Nico.

[@peanutsinapile]

You are correct. She was absolutely not forced to do this in anyway shape or form. In fact I asked her after the show if she had been nervous. Her eyes lit up and she said yes, but it was very obvious to me and everyone else there that she also had the time of her life. It was just a very special evening in the history of the band. IMO.

[@tzar26]

This is really something. I've listened to this song for 15+ years and it's marked my life, for better or worse. Seeing Shannon Hoon's kid sing it reminds me how old I am and how many years have passed. Still, it makes me wonder, about life, about love, about change.

[@afterafterbirth]

I have sand in my eyes. Definitely not crying

[@riskyridemusic]

Now that's magical! RIP Shannon and WTG Nico!!!! YOU PAINTED IT SISTA!!!

[@blindseypics]

Thank you, Nico, for this, and thank you for the contribution your Dad made to my hard times, and my misunderstanding of true music appreciation before hearing their work. I feel his talent was far and above many then, and even more now. His voice guided a decade, and that decade included me. Thank you, thanks Shannon.

[@wamcnult]

Miss Shannon and Nico is awesome to stand up there after what happened and her age

[@GIG042]

I didn't think I could love this song more!Thank You.

[@richardward0880]

this is beautiful. this is what music is all about. it's what you leave behind. God bless Nico's soul. she is a beautiful soul.

[@MelissaNeeleyMedia]

This warmed my heart. Thank you for sharing.

[@flintironstag2381]

She looked so uncomfortable up on stage, but she delivered vocally!

[@MrStouty]

its awesome that his bandmates done things like this for her

[@NiceRage2009]

I’ve been a HUGE BM fan since the first time I saw the video for the song “I wonder” on tv here in Canada. After the video was over, my buddy and I walked down to the record store and bought the CD. At the time I had a six disc changer and that one didn’t leave the rotation for about 2-3 years. Tones of home, I wonder, Change of course was an instant fav. Also sleepy house and really the entire album. Even no rain…but only like twice🤫 After that day, I was a fan for life! I was 15 years old at the time and just learning how to play guitar. I recently got back into them about a year ago through KZbin. So many great shows available on here. Woodstock, and of course the much music intimate and interactive. Hell I wish I knew they were going to be playing there in Toronto. I would have made the hour drive for sure. It would have been amazing to be one of the lucky ones to see one of Shannon’s final shows. It broke my heart when that man passed…he was a HUGE part of my teenage years and his music…so pure and original at a time where a lot of shit was cookie cutter. Sorry about the long ass post, just brings back a lot of feelings from almost 30 years ago😢

[@shawnlibert4689]

This video made me cry, in a good way. We miss the talent but will always have his lyrics to relate.

[@fedthefukup]

I am a grown man, and I am about to start crying.........Awesome performance so touching and emotional!

[@oxideworker]

Listening to it in a loop. Tears, welled up. RIP Shannon.

[@DonFaust]

Its a shame i can only like this once....

[@specialk9669]

I wish that there was a "love button"!

[@DonFaust]

Liking it again!!!

[@ikthos77]

OMGOMG this is so awesome!!!! i can't believe she's singing this!!! i luv her.....we love you Nico!!!! I wish i could hear her voice more....

[@nealsoad]

He loved her so much. Listen to the Q&A at 38:00 & 39:49 during this recording from about a little over a month before he died. He had every intention of making himself better and being a good father. Addiction is a battle that not everyone can win. That never made him a bad father and he never meant to choose drugs over Nico. He just lost the battle that so many others have also lost. He was still a good man with a good heart. - /watch?v=z_r3jMBJ7CI

[@eekj22]

no one musician should ever b compared to another alive or in death...one of the few things we have left in this country the freedom to have ur own opinion. shannon, kurt, layne, brad, not to mention the first group of young ones 2 die, janis, jimi, jim. rip 2 all the wonderful musicians out there that creat this beautiful art called music. shannon's lookn down on his daughter so proudly, who wldnt b uncomfrtable there, let alone when ur young&insecure. great job nico!!! @~~

[@howardb42006]

I lost my dad at 6 years old and your words hit home. Thanks.

[@finola83]

Fair play! Bless her for doing this and rocking it big time. I lost my dad and this can't of been easy but the reception she got was fantastic!must have brought her closer to her pops.

[@chamaco9136]

Hermoso,excelente y todos los adjetivos del mundo!!!

[@trocker4evr]

holy cow, time flies! Like yesterday shannon was singing about Nico not even born yet. awesome.

[@mvdeano]

Few things this touching...

[@MattNemmers]

That 12-year old's got serious cajones getting up there and doing her daddy's song. Not because she's bad, but imagine the pressure on her.....a true show of courage for a girl her age. An inspiration. Rock on, girl. Rock on.

[@Berqy123]

Wow... what a chill... "I know we cant all stay here forever... so I will write my words on the face of today"

[@TheHottuna66]

You can't even hear her sing cause of the crowd.

[@zenpaganwarrior]

Yeah, kinda rude not to shut the hell up and listen to Nico. Nice to help her out but damn, that's one rowdy-ass crowd.

[@Mooj]

Wow... I have the recording of this show on CD and it brought a tear to my eye then... now seeing it just brings it to a whole new level. Very sentimental. Thank you for posting this.

[@ecodirtrider]

Did not expect this !! Very AWESOME !! Chills through my body...

[@grantrichardson9742]

Water, shit. I bawled like a baby.

[@ynotfalco]
