Buffalo Tom - I'm Allowed HD

[@thekastel01]

probably the most underrated band of the 90 s

[@eduardomota2429]

Grant Lee Buffalo.

[@Sean-gu3tq]

I agree entirely..mystery to me why they were not massive

[@socialmediadeath5831]

2024 and still appreciating!!

[@eugenevohnoutka6323]

Your absolutely right...

[@VinnMan]

Back in '93, I turned a work buddy on to Sugar's Copper Blue. He turned me on to this album. I haven't seen or heard from him in 25 years, but I'm sure we're still playing both albums and remembering how we first heard them. Damn great music.

[@xs2dan]

Mmmh - both classics.

[@eric02125]

My first 2 cd’s ever were Its a shame about Ray and Copper Blue

[@erwinstada1811]

As usual:" these good old (music) times"

[@fodiographer]

You have good taste in music 👍

[@wilstarmbel]

Definitely one of the most underrated bands of the 90s love these guys

[@gregplassmann7139]

Probably the single best album of the 90's.

[@peppinodicorrado407]

Greg Plassmann no wrong

[@asobineko4742]

let me come over was better.

[@eduardomota2429]

Might Joe Moon

[@Truthmoses]

damn right. Had a much more profound impact on me than Nirvana ever did.

[@davepunk75]

Buffalo Tom, seriously, fantastic band. I have loved them from the early 90s. Certain bands who made it huge could not hold a candle to the quality of Buffalo Tom's songs. My personal opinion. 😎🎸🎶💚🔥

[@officialchucksnow]

New album coming out in May!

[@tonyasher4389]

BRLD is one of the 20 greatest rock albums of all time. Thank you Bill, genius.

[@allensamuel3342]

criminally underrated

Still listen 🎧 adore this band so much. So underrated they are awesome 👏🏻

and 2023!

[@rubygirl214]

I did the makeup on this video 😊. They were such great guys. We filmed it up near Big Bear. We drove out from LA and it was freezing cold there. Great day

[@BeggarsArchive]

So cool! Buffalo Tom were the nicest guys to work with ever :) We are still in touch

[@davidl570]

So......................I take it you met Samuel Bayer? If so, JEALOUS! He's definitely one of my favorite music video directors. Cool that you got to take part in this!

[@oppothumbs1]

Songs don't get much greater than this.

[@vlamsamsam]

Great song. Always brings me back to my younger years...

[@ericodijk]

Mid nineties I joined friends in a rockband as a drummer. We chose new covers to do and there were a few I did not know, like this song (also things from Scabs, Prodigal Sons) but the guitarist and the singer tought me those songs on the spot. It was way before KZbin and I never heard those songs before we played them live. I tried to figure out how to play a fitting drum line and to my surprise it was almost exactly the same, when I found these songs ten years later.

[@davidrosen600]

Love BT saw them back in the day one of the best bar bands around....

[@TheDarksock]

I can think of 100 90's bands that Buffalo Tom should've been WAYYYY bigger than.

[@eugenevohnoutka6323]

Right on

[@robertmoe7101]

great song from the 90's gets stuck in my head alot

[@SilverFlame819]

2018. I just woke up, and this song was stuck in my head. Random!!!

[@MustHaveWine]

Damn...that's a great song...

[@richardhaley3756]

2024 here

[@jamesbelljr7987]

I20 Minutes on MTV(when the M actually stood for Music) introduced me to a ton of bands that were just as good as the mainstream radio friendly bangers that were out there..Bring the Music back MTV

[@eric02125]

Great performance by Buffalo Tom on 120 min

[@edhelvey6119]

@@eric02125 120 Minutes turned me on to a lot of great music. Probably should've spent more time on Sunday nights studying instead of watching that show and 'The Simpsons'. Dinosaur Jr. was one of my better discoveries on that show.

[@cardiacade]

Ah, I'm young again.

[@geuxvp]

This song touches me every time. I didn't get the meaning of 'being allowed' when I heard it back in the 90s, but I guess it's something like allowed to drink, drive, etc. In other words: he's a grown-up now. What I like about the lyrics is that he sings from the first-person perspective in 'Waited for an answer. But I waited for twenty five years' and then switches to 'I waited for the day when you came out from beneath all that weight'. It looks like he's addressing himself in these lines, so the perspective becomes a bit vague, but in a likeable way. And then the 'came to a party'-part, what's that about? Looks like the 'party' is figurative way of describing all the cool stuff he was promised as a kid for once he would become an adult. In reality he doesn't have a clue and feels awkward and depressed. Still though, there seems to have been a real party when you look at the last part: 'She spoke of a French boy. At least two times through the night. It could have been the liquor, or the music but that is all right.' So there you have it: an amazing coming-of-age story in a few lines of text being carried by chords, melody and voice. Love it every freaking time again.

Listening to this gem in 2022

[@mikemerna7554]

Seeing these guys in Williamsburg tomorrow night. Can't wait!

[@elenick625]

One of the many great bands outta Beantown.

Love this. Brings me back to the Berkshires and the NEK.

[@stevesickles7671]

Thumbs up !!

[@lbadventures1703]

I Hope one day I'll stand on pub with few people , drinking a very cold beer and watching this Band close to me.

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

Waited for an answer But I waited for twenty five years They stopped my bleeding But could never stop all those tears I waited for the day when He came out from beneath all that weight I tried to lift it But it seems I got there too Late Just too late Just too late Cause I'm allowed Came to the party But I got my own signals crossed Thought I was welcome But I felt like I should get lost I know that I'm older Cause I feel that everywhere I could talk to no one Cause I knew not one person There No one's there They just stared But they're allowed As vivid as a car wreck Watch them dripping off highway ramps She came to me smiling Her heart underneath both her hands She spoke of a French boy At least two times through the night It could have been the liquor Or the music but that is All right That's all right She's allowed And I'm allowed I'm allowed I'm allowed I always like when people post the lyrics so I did it myself since nobody had yet. Great lyrics as usual.

[@amerocker]

This is the only Buffalo Tom song I truly like. It's also about the only BT song I know, thanks to Boston radio, early 1990's.

[@monketstyling]

All their songs are good, some are way way beyond good, get a tear drop in your eye good. Takes about 100 listens to get into their songs though. Never get sick of these types of songs.

[@stephaniesmith9715]

Love this band.

[@Johnnybananass-_]

this song is so sad, i domt know what its about but it feels like a real sadness to it.

[@davidl570]

It's pretty deep! Not ashamed to say it gets me emotional almost every time---probably because I can VERY easily relate to the majority of the lyrics.

[@Johnnybananass-_]

Hugs to you. Sometimes it’s very cleansing to feel such ways about a song. Like shows us we aren’t dead inside just yet.
