I'll never forget that! Amazing how a fleeting moment of pure joy can bring up such emotions after all these years. I only wish Dave could be here for this moment as well.

I grew up a hardcore A’s fan, and, though written in the voice of a Mariner’s fan, I’ve always found this song to be touching because it conjures up my own nostalgia, and brings back memories of watching countless A’s games with my family and friends over the years - memories I will cherish forever. On this day I find this song more touching than ever before, as Ray Fosse, the former A’s commentator and an icon of my childhood, passed away today. I experienced so much joy watching the A’s over the years, and Ray was a primary conduit of that joy. I will miss hearing his voice, his stories, his knowledge, and his never ending love for the Green and Gold. A big thank you to the artists for making this track and helping me connect with my past ♥️

Dave Niehaus was an amazing sportscaster. As a child I would listen to him announce the Mariner games on TV till I had to go to bed. In the summers it would still be light out around 9 PM but I would stay up listening to Dave on my radio while fighting the urge to fall asleep. I grew up with the Mariners my whole life and Griffey was my idol. I even mimicked him, played centerfield, wore number 24, taught myself to bat left-handed (I am a natural righty), and tried perfecting his batting stance and amazing swing. This video gives me goosebumps. Thinking of the '95 season STILL gives me goosebumps. It was an epic year for Seattle and something I will remember and be proud of my entire life. This Macklemore video is pretty awesome and brings back some of the very best memories of my childhood. Thank you for that. REFUSE TO LOSE!

God bless baseball so cool to see a hip hop song about it. It really is the best sport of all. There is no time limit. It challenges what a human can possibly do with a stick and his body, against what another human can possibly do tossing a ball. It was designed to break your heart, and yet time and time again their are insane victories by the underdog. There is no sport in the world like baseball, and it's so emotional. So in-precise. They measure everything in baseball by numbers and complicated math these days and still the unpredictable and impossible happens. A game of heroes, a game of villains. A game of redemption and regret. The national "pastime" and yet a game where time seems to stop during those wonderful moments you will remember forever. It's a game of contradictions and timeless truths. It's a beautiful game. Long live hip hop, and long live baseball.

Awesome post David! Like your point of view. We Seattleites were THRILLED the M's had actually made it in to the series! I was at that game and will never forget it. We really did make history that night! I Love this song too, might even be my favorite! It makes my cry tho!

Those were some damn good teams you had, Buhner, ARod, Edgar, to go along with the pitching like the Big Unit. It was a respectful hate I had for that team. Still would love to see Donny get a ring with the Dodgers though.

This song hits me hard because it's so familiar, the way Macklemore feels about Dave Niehaus is the same way every baseball-loving kid in Milwaukee feels about Bob Uecker.

Noah Oudejans it could be! However, he is talking about an exact moment in western Washington sports history. I distinctively remember that moment as a kid. we all felt like anything was possible, like we could actually make it this time. dave Niehause was THE voice of seattle baseball and an announcer like no other. he gave descriptions and interjections like poetry. During that time though between his coverage, and the amazing baseball, it felt like magic and everyone went in just to watch the game. we all felt united and the rush was amazing.

I hope you all know he didn't expect this song to appeal to the whole country. He wanted to aim this song at Seattleites, since we're the only people who can really relate to it. It's like a shoutout to his hometown.

Man I lived in Everett. Lynwood. Renton. Starwood. Darrington. I went to Seattle every chance I got. Watched a lot of king dome games. But sadly I moved to Colorado. Been here for 6 years now. It's beautiful over here in its own way. Nothing compares to sea town I miss the ocean. If anybody is thinking of moving don't. You will miss it trust me. The smell of the sea. The pikes place market. Peace

This song is my personal anthem. I hate baseball. But this song entirely captures, how I feel about my home town, where I still live, work and raise a family. I work in first response, the overlapping memories of my childhood, my children’s childhood and the historic natural disasters that I have played a small part in is overwhelming to me at times. This song is medicine. Work hard and be proud of where you are from and then where you are from, is worth working hard for and being proud of.

Everything he says in this video is so exactly right! I grew up in Seattle in the 90s in a Mariners family, Dave Niehaus narrating the soundtrack playing in the background of my childhood. I was at so many of those big games, especially in the ‘95 playoffs. I don’t live in Seattle anymore because I just got to a point where I missed Seattle from the 90s too much, and it’s just so different now, but I love this video - the sites of my beautiful hometown and some of the best memories from my childhood. Thanks Macklemore.

I'll be honest, I'm not a fan of Macklemore's music. Heck, I'm not a fan of rap at all. It's just not to my taste. But I am a Mariners fan, and this song makes me cry nearly every time I hear it. Only a stand up guy like Macklemore could commemorate Dave Niehaus with such great lyrics. RIP Dave, and thank you Macklemore for this fantastic song.

***** Eh. One of my issues with hip hop is that as a drummer, I feel replaced since every beat is pretty much made by a machine. That's why I personally don't like it, knowing that it is a personal issue. I don't think it's inferior by any means, since the quality of lyrics aren't influenced by the genre of music, and just because I may not like something doesn't make it bad. I like classic rock mostly but I don't expect everyone here to agree.

Kelly Seana Yes, but my point is most people in my school, which is in Seattle (Macklemore's hometown) think of Thrift Shop when they think of Macklemore. I don't like that. I know he has made many songs that have meaning, but I want him to make more, because I enjoy those songs more.
@keeganhs444911 жыл бұрын
Precourser Possibly it's just because 'Thrift Shop' is his most known song due to it being on top of the Top 200 Billboards for a number of weeks. Maybe they just haven't gone further into Macklemore's songs such as Language of My World and Vs. Redux EP etc. Hopefully they do though because the songs that Kelly^^^ listed above as well as many others have wonderful meanings to them.
@Timewarp78711 жыл бұрын
Precourser Thrift Shop, the way I interpret it, does have some meaning. You don't have to have a ton of cash to have good style. I think it's a good thing this song is popular because it could stop some bullying because of "less stylish" clothing. I do agree with you though, it annoys me when people ONLY think of Thrift Shop when Macklemore is brought up.
