The Juliana Hatfield Three - For the Birds

from 1993's "Become What You Are"

[@MichelKulmann]

God, I feel so lucky I was born in the late 70s and lived all the 80s and 90s best kinds of music. The early 90s (up to about 1996) were so good in music. It is a shame today we don't see quality artists in the media. I feel sorry for this generation surrounded by too much technology and plenty of shallow music (if we can call all that noise music). Thank Goodness we can watch and rewatch all those videos once played on the good old MTV here on KZbin. Thanks for sharing this video. I love that song.

I was born in the late 80s but because of my older brothers I was exposed and heavily influenced by all this really good stuff... And it just totally lives on for me, I wish music were still like this

[@SteveWinland]

90s alternative is the best, so many good songs.

[@stevencorsoe9575]

A great little artist...seen her performance many years back...i think i fell in love with her for her performance and beauty!!!...Just wish this sound in music stayed with us.❤❤

[@chrissims9351]

Love their sound. A very underrated album overall.

[@williamandrews4251]

Juliana has such a unique voice and song writing style.Thank you Juliana you are a true survivor.

[@shakespeare598]

Discovered this band over a year ago and have been hooked ever since

[@robbohannan1893]

Juliana, she's a goddess, most criminally and commercially underrated :-(

[@JoaoJPSingerSongwriter83933]

Juliana is one of the 1990's best singer songwriters miss the 1990's the women back then wrote and played there instruments not like the playboy playmate pop stars of today!

[@stevencorsoe9575]

You actually complimented them by using playboy...I was thinking maybe swank,or hustler...really sickens me.

[@karinchristina8345]

Haven't seen this in ages.

[@MidKnightblue0013]

I had forgotten how good this song is. I saw a very small, dead bird on the group and thought of this song, looked it up, listened, and now tears are in my eyes.

[@barrycuda3769]

In the 90's I worked on an orchard picking cherries 'quite often you would come across a birds nest(blackbirds' thrush 's starling's)I would just pick around them and move on . I was shocked to hear that there was a woman picker who when she found a nest with chick's in it would turn it upside down and let them fall to the ground. That was one of my life lessons regarding what some people are like.

@@barrycuda3769 indeed, humans only wreck the world... some more than others

[@thomaslocke7787]

One of the best songs of the 90's, IMO.

[@MickDunne100]

Yes! One of the best songs... anytime.

[@noodlehat3250]

Great song and Julianna looks beautiful in the video.

[@TCcollector97]

Juliana rules, she is a highly under appreciated artist. Well, Juliana, I’m watching and will always be. ❤️

[@Owyourhurtingme]

She’s lame.

[@christina9841]

Love this song and love her voice.

[@skelznap]

A gorgeous and wonderful song!!!

[@dreweconomic3174]

Shit I miss the early 1990s.... I love the lyrics "humans only wreck the world....they'll kill your whole family for a string of pearls" -- very insightful on how dirty humanity is.....

[@johanstaelens5194]

At least we have the video back !!! Best of Crunge ! "Only humans wreck the world" Pretty actual nowadays...

[@angeloropeza2818]

What a gem! Thank you so much for uploading!

[@JanHorvis]

In time 3:03, it seems like the bridge from the 1986 movie Highlander, when McLoad meet one friend of him there, and remember the old times. I think, that in movie, should be some place in NewYork. I did not check it, but it is the first impression as I saw the bridge

[@SombraPiloto]

Love Juliana!!! Seeing Fall On Me at the end was such a tease…

[@sticksman1979]

Juliana is so beautiful in this video.

[@peterw.5984]

JH3 kicked major ass "I'd call someone but I don't have a dime..."

[@paulgleave5779]

For the Birds Juliana Hatfield Three Produced by Scott Litt Album: Become What You Are I really had to go downtown Go downtown and hang around Was not prepared for what I found A baby bird was lyin' on the ground Lying there in front of my feet Dying there right next to the street I picked it up and felt it's heat I tried to wake her up but she wanted to sleep I'm trying, and I'm trying, and I'm trying But I can't get away from the thought It's dying, it's dying, it's dying And it's something that I couldn't stop You're lying, you're lying, if you say It's gonna make it 'coz I know that it's not Hanging on a telephone line Witnessing a million crimes I've been alone all this time I'd call someone but I don't have a dime I don't care for boys or girls I'd rather hang around with the birds Humans only wreck the world They'd kill your whole family for a string of pearls I'm trying, and I'm trying, and I'm trying But I can't get away from the thought We're dying, we're dying, we're dying Our insides are starting to rot You're lying, you're lying, if you say We're okay, 'cos maybe we're not Ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh ooh. Ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh ooh. Ooh, ooh, ooh... ooh ooh Oooh... ooh ooh... ooh If I had wings I'd try to fly But they don't make it harder to die You can take it up to the sky But no one ever stays that high High... high I'm trying, and I'm trying, and I'm trying But I can't get away from the thought I'm dying, I'm dying I already gave away all that I've got I'm lying, I'm lying, if I say That I'm cool 'cos really I'm not Written by: Juliana Hatfield ©℗ 1993 Atlantic/Mammoth Ventures, Inc.

[@potshot11]

Love that song two times.

[@shadofaxes]

Awesome! Thanks for posting. I used to record 120 minutes back in the 90's (when there was this thing called music tv) and this vid is on one of my tapes, gonna have to get another vhs and convert! I miss the 90's a lot.

[@dreweconomic3174]

PLEASE DO! I miss the 90s so bad....the last decade was so wretched....

[@uncooldispatch5438]

😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@skullduggery3377]

sometimes baby birds could fall from the nest. other times, adult birds may crash into windows or walls. as good a flyer as they are, they are not without aviation mistakes.

[@pdbordelon]

So great

Terrific.....I was looking for this one.....

[@PedroRReis]

I guess, Wolf Alice get inspirations from them.

[@michaelastrud281]

One of my top 10 overlooked artists of all time. Ignorance only leads to stagnation. Seen you in Pittsburgh many years ago. You're never out my rotation. Yes.... I'm feeling Massachusetts.

[@cjmiller3302]

Classic

[@cjmiller3302]

The song was supposed to be used in Wonder Park

[@tremologlider7603]

thanks! better quality than a crappy .mov file i used to have 😂

[@johanstaelens5194]

Come back to belgium !

[@peterw.5984]

stellar organ playing too

[@joeg7227]

That's Peter Holsapple, a.k.a. the fifth member of R.E.M.

[@peterw.5984]

​@@joeg7227I didn't know that thanks!

[@potshot11]

She looks like Trish Yearwood. Is that a different incarnation?

[@garbanzobeenbeenzeen6835]

oh the nihilism

[@Owyourhurtingme]

Such weak music. No wonder she never made it big.
