Counting Crows - Butter Miracle Suite One (Official Video)

[@Paladin110984]

My Saturday nights and Sunday morning soundtrack of my life.

[@Çerūlean9007]

Glad to see you guys are still around. "Color blind" was so great in cruel intentions. I have an awesome story for yall. One time I was driving home and I felt the presence of Jesus come down and he got right by me. I started getting chills and I felt so comfortable with him. I knew if I asked him to play any song he would. So I said "Ok Lord, play Come as you are by nirvana..." I turned on my radio and the song began right on the spot, perfectly. I started getting flooded on the inside like a waterfall of chills by the Holy Spirit and started crying. I got home and he stayed with me for 10 minutes til I got out of the car. Since then, I've been getting answered prayers for nearly 5 years. Many involving other people. I know many other people who get answered prayers. Praying in Jesus name and following the Biblical instructions.

When I first listened to this new material I thought it was great. But when I saw the film I almost broke into tears. I love this band, and I will always do. Thanks Counting Crows for this!

[@nevadascaredme7436]

The filmwork made this better.

[@jamesheald7971]

I learned about this a half-hour ago. I did break into tears.

[@Robin.Forbes]

Almost??? I DID break into tears!!

[@kevinhendrix8786]

I was the exact opposite. Just like with their last 4 albums. Takes me a couple of listens to realize how amazing their new stuff is...every time.

[@wolfcola3401]

I've been listening to Adam since the band Himalayans

[@crowmedicine3890]

You DO!!

[@anatrejos8879]

Amen I came to introduce myself "August and Everything After" I love all the song knew Adam was a great song writer. Love that guy but we also must give huge credit to his band classic players.

[@Alex_Off-Beat]

For me it's the reverse, Counting Crows have been around my entire life. I remember hearing Mr Jones, A Long December, and Hanginaround on the radio as a little kid, as well as Accidentally In Love from Shrek 2(which has one of the greatest soundtracks ever). The memory of those songs led me to buy Films About Ghosts and then the rest of their albums, which became a quintessential part of the soundtrack to my teen angst. Now I'm an adult and they remain one of my favorite bands ever!

[@UnoHoo1]

@Johnny Boone, TY! Apparently, I’m not the only one…!

[@marlonmoncrieffe0728]

I actually MET none other than ADAM DURITZ recently! I know his current girlfriend-who actually plays Z the Cat here!-and she was performing in a play, which Adam Duritz and I were both audience members were, and after the show, she introduced me to him! It was a brief hello but it made my night!

The results are terrific!

[@SchardtCinematic]

So I'm curious were the Dark Angel's wings practical effect or very good CGI?

[@Lazzmodai]

Easily the best Crows since This Desert Life.

[@heatherh3397]

Agreed!

[@clarkeandi]

Yeah, spot on that

[@lucidwindowsstudio]

I think Hard Candy and Saturday Night & Sunday Mornings were better.

[@thiagogfalcao]

I agree.

[@nevadascaredme7436]

This Desert Life is my favorite CC

[@evilbanks]

Simply amazing. Counting Crows forever.

[@SchardtCinematic]

That was awesome. Takes me back to the Scarecrow and Palisades Park video with Ed and Andy. Loved those.

[@Doughy_in_the_Middle]

I just "fell out of music" for a period in the late 2000s and early 2010s and lost touch with a lot of music. About a month ago, I randomly thought of a Counting Crows song, and I realized I hadn't listened to them in years (I *think* I own "Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings"), so pulled them up on Spotify. I fell back in love with the band. Then, after Adam was on JRE, I went back to listen and watch the video for Mr. Jones and realized: it was from 1993. The year I started college. No wonder I listened to them so much. They WERE my college soundtrack. Every girl I though back about from high school, every moody walk I took trying to figure out where my life was going, all of it was in August & Everything After. And, I won't even go into how many times I listened to the Unplugged set. So, huge thank to JRE for putting Adam on and bringing me back to the band I became an adult with. Looking forward to getting back to what I used to listen to, what I missed since, and what's coming on the new stuff.

[@brandonfairchild5340]

Then unplugged set is a masterpiece! I can relate to a lot of this.

[@ScottButlerAct]

Really proud to have worked on this, the cast and crew were amazing! - Dark Angel :)

[@christopherarbor6208]

I didn't think it was possible for the Counting Crows to get any better or for me to love them more than I already do. I was wrong on both counts.

It's truly remarkable Adam, that through these years you can again bring your Amazing voice and enthralling story telling through your songs! The Fan-family is blessed to hear the magic you guys are making again! LEGENDS!

Wow! This is brilliant. An entire connected series of songs and now videos...an entire film. Absolutely love it!

[@michelleperkel7081]

Beautifully done. A refreshing take on music, storytelling and entertainment.

[@ryanphillips5412]

The depth of the lyrics and music, the revolving themes that interplay with one another...particularly on Tall Grass, are truly some of their best work. I like it better after at least 100 listens...it keeps revealing layers.

Wow, this video is amazing, the music feels like the good old Counting Crows days I love. Can't wait to buy the new album. Great Job guys!!

I come back to this masterpiece every so often, along with the Palisades Park video, for an uplifting cry 🥲 and I wonder to myself “are Counting Crows my favourite ever band?….quite possibly” and then I move on for a bit to all the other great music in the world. But I know I’ll be back here again soon ❤️

"My g-generation hasn't even got a name of its own." I felt that. So sad Ed and Andy didn't make the band reunion. But what a ride!

[@frankhucklenbroich6792]

And it is quoting "My Generation" from "The Who", where Roger Daltrey "stutters" parts of the lyrics.

I love the first suite, as is, but this was just taking it all to another level. Respect.

[@chrissyb7916]

You should check out The Luminers' III. The released two EPs and when they got to three planned Thor's EP and we're setting to do a video it ended up being a film incorporating all three EPs. The film is very very moving. No talking all music and shot in New York State.

I have to apologize. When I first listened to Butter Miracle Suite I didn't like it at all. But now, I think it is the most brilliant thing Counting Crows has ever done.I haven't stopped hearing it in my head fir 2 weeks, and the video answers all the questions I had. Freaking love it!

[@lennartverhoeven]

I love this! When I first heard the songs it was as if the Counting Crows universe inside my head shifted like in the movie Inception. New meanings and pathways were created, the relationships between lyrics and musical themes morphed. Everything was different and yet so familiar. Now that I see the video, it adds another dimension. Just like the Palisades Park video did for that song, the Butter Miracle Suit One video fills in some of the blanks, it colours in some meaning and it strengthens the ties to what was before.

[@rmzzz76]

Holy shit. This is amazing. I've continued to follow this band over the years, they were my favorite when I was younger and really haven't been into them in a long time... lots of great albums and singles, but I always wondered if they'd every really produce something as extraordinary as their debut... Now they have. Time to contact everyone you know who once loved this band and tell them to check this out.

[@charlieward5414]

Magical, emotional & beautifully woven masterpiece just perfect

[@eddysonego1217]

I m here after I listened again yesterday after more than 20 years the album August and everything after . Ages. I remember in the 1999 me as a young guy with all the difficulties to settle in work and circumstances and that's where Mrs Potters especially was kicking... a repeat in my ears. I had a kind of fit of nostalgia yesterday thinking at that, music has the power to bring you back to remember old times. There is always a piece of Maria in every song, true, happy that I found out this band is still rocking.

[@robertmendoza9030]

I've been a fan since September of '93 when August and everything after dropped that album I have worn out number of times CD cassette tapes and I will always have that in my collection. Their music is h ip. Help me through some very dark times in my life. Life changes separations divorce loss of life amongst others and I think Adam and the rest of the guys are simply brilliant with what they do sometimes it seems like they wrote some songs just for me but they didn't. They wrote it for all of us😊
