Cracker - Turn On Tune In Drop Out

Music video by Cracker performing Turn On Tune In Drop Out. (C) 2009 SLG, LLC

[@ruseter84]

I heard this song about 1.5 years to retirement and people would ask what are you doing after retirement. I’d listen to this driving to o work and it would play in my head and I d sing the lyrics, Now it a reality, live in W. TN. Living the. Dream! For sure really living it

[@Garynoll1964]

Most underrated band out there, still going strong

[@kosteriowa]

Seeing them AGAIN Tonight !

[@mobyfreechilds]

I am impractical, but I wish we could all just help the people around us a little, that we see who need it the most. If most of us did that... I can't imagine how the world would change. If we could be kind and true and follow our heart songs.

[@thomaswhitman5827]

Can’t believe I’m just hearing this now , this is one of my favorite songs ever

[@benworsham1466]

It’s great

[@smorrell19]

Hear this on the Sirius COVID broadcast on e-street radio, haven't stopped listening to it for 2 days !

[@nleith1]

Same!

[@davidparrish1205]

It's a song that makes you want to listen over and over

[@7777srd]

Why can't I "like" this more than once?

[@Heymymy-oy9ur]

This voice, David ! And this sound, Johnny ! Thanks guys, (forever) thanks !

[@dimitristsilikas8799]

Thank you Californication!! What a great scene that was….Hank,Abby and this masterpiece playing along!!

[@ritvickchakranarayan9613]

3 year probation

[@ModestCasanovaa]

I was just thinking ,wasn't this song on californication, and then I seen your comment, lol.

[@MushmouthJoe]

Cracker was ahead of the curve. This song came out during my term as vice principal under Brock Toboggan. It's more relevant now than ever.

[@johnsmith-wv5bj]

what does this mean? You're texting: Corian, Granite, or Tile Kitchenette in the gun nest?

[@MushmouthJoe]

@@johnsmith-wv5bj Making decisions via text with his wife for amenities for their fortress in the mountains that is equipped with a gun nest to keep the shitbags out.

[@RequestedNameTaken]

Just saw them at The Windjammer, IOP, SC on the beach stage. They now feature “Cannon” on the pedal slide. Great show!

[@mac774]

Bittersweet and lovely. Thanks, guys.

[@Dontjuststareatit]

got to meet these guys when I was a teen and they couldn't have been nicer. made a long lasting impression

[@dryter]

Love the little soldier guys chasing away the peace and love!

[@pauliuslng]

This song on my iTunes has twice as many plays as the second most played one and believe me, the second one was played many many times

[@dannytobo]

!!!! i love this music !! Turn On Tune In Drop Out !!

[@benworsham1466]

Found this song two years ago, it’s an anthem for a friend of mine.

[@albertraschiatore7618]

How is this group not in the Hall of Fame

[@Merglet]

Cracker might not be, but Dave Lowry certainly should be. Between Camper Van Beethoven and Cracker, dude is a complete lyrical genius.

[@SPARKY4944]

Seen them in Milwaukee acoustic show.Amazing, coolest guys to talk to.

[@jeffusher7546]

love their music and its getting better as i age (get old) i was 21 when teenage angst came out, and i was in love. :)

[@Merc399]

this guy is like my spirit animal

[@lawlisrn]

How could you NOT love this SONG !!!! I see 71 thumbs down!

[@nihilismfromnow5904]

+Valerie Lawlis it's .. not describable .. gotta be a glitch I think ... or conspiracy "theorists" with really bad taste in music ...

[@LiTtLeLiOnMaN394]

Final in 2 hours , haven't studied shit , why am I listening to this on repeat after 5 years will remain a mystery to me forever

[@davidparrish1205]

Because this is a "repeat" kind of song. I will go a while without hearing it, but when it sneaks back into my mind, on repeat or goes.....

[@enjoythesilence169]

When a song is good it doesn't matter how long ago it was when you last heard it. Music has no expiration date. I wonder if people will ever understand this. People are so concerned with how old a song is and will say that's a reason not to listen to it. Makes absolutely no sense

[@johnwergeld]

This is a great band!

[@genx7006]

"I'm tired of coding perl" omg I coded in Perl in the late 90s and it was a nightmare. I relate with you my brother. ✊

[@yourvon]

Miguel......Your reply and comment to Erica is PRICELESS! A californian

[@kenchamful]

Was great getting to run sound for these guys this past weekend in Felton California . . . great bunch of guys . . .

[@MrUgotpranked]

californication didnt bring me here. I am here because i love the band and all the music.

[@JMMjamm]

Yes. Favorite band ever.

[@dathorndike4908]

What a clever video. Know the song, but first time seeing the video

[@deathcar]

Very relevant tune these days...

[@koonts67]

I love this song! it is the embodiment of my objective,if I can only find the finances for it,lol!! "Find a little meadow,high up in the cascades,baby we wont ever come down"

[@larryramey8226]

learn perl and VBA

[@tushfinger]

I can relate to this on so many levels

[@Uchube-24]

Saw these guys on the same bill as Stray Cats and the Smithereens in Asbury park in 1992

[@jbo9150]

Eoín Ua Liatháin .. I saw them with The Gin Blossoms & Spin Doctors in '94

[@sivadtube]

How is this 12 years old?!????!. It sounds like it was written yesterday!!!! I just heard it and thought it was brand new.

[@S_Snare71]

Come on, turn on, tune in, drop out, with me Baby you need a break so lets just run away Well I'm tired of coding Perl, and I'm tired of VBA Maggie throw your law books away Turn on, tune in, drop out, give up, with me Now picture this: I'm shopping in town for our homemade agrarian fortress You're texting: Corian, Granite, or Tile Kitchenette in the gun nest? Well we will find a little meadow High up in the Cascades Baby we won't ever come down Turn on, tune in, drop out, give up, with me Turn on, tune in, drop out, with me The whole things coming down So lets just get out of the way Well I'm not paranoid, there is no conspiracy But I swear big brothers watching me Turn on, tune in, drop out, give up, with me So you're serving aperitifs to the local survivalist militia In camouflage you're fine but the locals still call you Morticia Well find a little meadow High up in the Cascades Baby we won't ever come down Turn on, tune in, drop out, give up, with me Buy a little cabin in the Adirondacks Baby they'll never find us Turn on, tune in, drop out, give up, with me Hand stitch out tepee Windy East Mojave Watching for black helicopters Turn on, tune in, drop out, give up, with me

[@johnsmith-wv5bj]

what does this mean? Hand stitch out tepee can u plz tell me?

[@shelll9254]

Best lyrics Ever!!!!✌️💗

Hank Moody driving his car brought me here.

[@cas422]

So perfect for the pandemic

[@johncampbell9842]

Californication brought me here. Oh Hank

[@teresamatasvelasco]

Me too! Love the man!! Haaank!!!

[@kimmyfreak200]

Erik Baca nailed it

[@kevin1049]

@@andyb7337 Don't do that! It makes me miss you! -Runkle

[@mirkosansan]

Great song! Really taps into a certain ethos out there. I can relate. "...the whole thing's coming down, so let's get out of the way."

[@spayspay]

Awesome. Leary would be proud.

[@dompathug]

I was looking for crack.... ... but 4 real, californication brought me here of course.. :)

[@CinematicComics]

beautiful!!!

[@thomasmooper6270]

Very cool thanks

[@protokevinleversee975]

I miss this band

[@beckyfranklin9913]

This band ain't going away!

[@davidbuck5916]

I saw them last night. They're still great, still rock, still put out new music, still tour...hope you can catch them somewehere.

[@ritvickchakranarayan9613]

Thanku Californication

[@stevebean1234]

I like this song bc I lived in the ADKs and right next to the Cascades and left both. Miss it. Luckily have avoided DBA in my career

[@stacywinslow6255]

I love this song!

[@marcelopatto]

Sublime! Sublime! O resto pouco importa.

[@Durmomo0]

Every bit of external stimuli Ive ever been exposed to plus my brain chemistry brought me here :-P

[@djbrownsville]

they must have spent at least $75 on making this vid...and it's awesome. in a way it is metaphorically a lot like Cracker. Telling a great story, artistically without all the flashy f'ing bullshit - about $75. and it'll be the best $75 you ever spent.

[@andrewchippendale3108]

nice tune

[@MinistryOfSleepers]

Timothy brought me here.. Great guide :)

[@glorgau]

Also, mod_perl in 2009? I stopped doing that to myself and others a decade before that.

[@fuzzyfry6711]

where is Timothy Leary when you need him

[@cotiaratv3651]

Look up. Fill the sky.

[@4221joel]

i brought my self here...

[@monsieurludique]

you're right. I'll tell you more, I was becoming mad because I could not get find this song

[@jamiejohnson6808]

Listen to this song, you may expand your taste

[@berkengin3954]

Why doesnt this song available on Spotify

[@SquiggyWigginz]

I really understand David Lowry.

[@graniericlass]

26 people should turn off, tune out, stay in.

[@sulthanagustian]

Hai

[@craigslaunwhite579]

Interesting that Timothy Leary is the original quote of the chorus.

[@NotaRules]

Someone can explain the song lyrics to me in a simple way? I'm spanish and I understand some things but i think im not undestanding the real meaning. TY

Words of Timothy Leary....!!!!

[@Waterworks410]

i wonder if anyone watching this video actually knows where the phrase "turn on, tune in, drop out" originated, and what it stands for. i bet there would be a lot of surprised people.

[@SkiIIz91]

@TheColdWeatherPilots i like how you're using the beatles to represent the acid scene. poor choice

[@yourvon]

YEP!

[@kirbywagner4177]

And all the locals will call you Morticia …

[@annielamson6572]

A big fan of Cracker & Camper VB. All things considered, this song as satire, has aged strangely. Not quite as out-there an idea as it once was.

[@glorgau]

These are the Californians moving into the county and immediately start lobbying for an increase in school bonds.

[@michelecontinelli1911]

di cosa parla questa canzone?

To everyone thinking this is a love song to the separatist ideology, Y'all don't get the joke, it's kinda on you in a bittersweet way.
