Counting Crows - Mr. Jones Lyrics

Disfrutando de este clasico hoy 19 de Diciembre.! Que recuerdos.!

never really listened to this song till today and its freaking sad LOL!!! I want to be beautiful

Whoever said white people can't dance has never seen THIS video

This counts as white in murrica? oO

Oof....memories of being 18...miss those days like crazy....

This lead singer guy... He never really went for the rock star image. The pussy he tagged, though, it's astounding -- truly a feat worthy of a rock star and quite a bit beyond. Women just dug him, they probably still do.

miss the pianoand coat

happy holidays emeriville, chicogo and college never were X to keith pauling ( jones) the baddest lord snowdom of 1970

When are they coming to? Pittsburgh?

Mister Jones is talking to a black haired flamenco danser, She dances while his father plays guitar, so it's mister jones's father that plays guitar, the flamenco danser is not a shemale then ? i wonderd whole my life

It looks like throughout the entire video he is either trying to take his jacket off or put it on
I just discovered this song today.
Today is a good day!

Hola desde Colombia... Mister jones

Beautiful writing and singing.

Beautiful December 2019🔥🔥🔥

"Help me believe in anything 'cause I wanna be someone who believes." That captured the essence of an entire generation! We're still waiting...

William Matthews beautiful

This video always reminds me of the TV show Friends... God, I such a crush on Jennifer Aniston back then...

Wonder if he ever got that grey guitar?

this song is a quik fix

Mr. Jones

Sha la la la la la la... hmm, uh huh

Eu estava em Nova Amsterdam
Fitando esta moça de cabelos amarelos
Sr. Jones puxa uma conversa
Com esta dançarina de flamenco de cabelos pretos
Ela dança enquanto seu pai toca guitarra
De repente ela fica bonita
Todos nós queremos algo bonito
Eu queria ser bonito

Então venha dançar este silêncio até de manhã
Sha la la la la la la... hmm, uh huh
Corta essa Maria!
Mostre-me alguma daquelas danças espanholas
Me passa uma garrafa, Sr. Jones
Acredite em mim
Ajude-me a acreditar em qualquer coisa
Eu quero ser alguém que acredita
Yeah

Sr. Jones e eu contamos um ao outro contos de fadas
Fitamos as lindas mulheres
"Ela está olhando pra você. Ah, não, não, ela está olhando pra mim"
Sorrindo na luz clara
Chegando em estéreo
Quando todo mundo te ama
Você nunca pode estar só

Eu pintarei meu retrato
Pintarei eu mesmo em azul em vermelho em preto e em cinza
Todas as cores bonitas são muito muito expressivas
Cinza é a minha cor favorita
Eu me senti tão simbólico ontem
Se eu conhecesse Picasso
Eu compraria para mim uma guitarra cinza e tocaria

Sr. Jones e eu olhamos no futuro
Fitamos as lindas mulheres
"Ela está olhando pra você. Acho que não. Ela está olhando pra mim! "
Parado no holofote
Eu comprei pra mim uma guitarra cinza
Quando todo mundo me amar, eu nunca mais estarei sozinho

Eu nunca mais estarei sozinho
Digo que nunca estarei sozinho

Eu quero ser um leão
Todo mundo quer se passar por gatos
Todos nós queremos ser grandes, grandes astros
Mas nós temos diferentes razões pra isso
Creia em mim porque eu nao creio em nada
e eu quero ser alguém para crer

Sr. Jones e eu cambalendo pelo bairro
É, nós fitamos as lindas mulheres
"Ela é perfeita pra você, cara! Tem que haver alguém pra mim"
Eu quero ser Bob Dylan
Sr. Jones gostaria de ser alguém apenas um pouco mais legal
Quando todo mundo te amar, filho, será quase tão legal quanto você pode ser

Sr. Jones e eu fitando o vídeo
Quando olho para a televisão
Quero me ver encarando o passado
Todos nós queremos ser grandes astros
mas nós não sabemos por que e não sabemos como
Mas quando todo mundo me amar

Eu vou ser quase tão feliz quanto posso ser
Sr. Jones e eu seremos grandes astros

Best Lyrics Award goes to : " Sha la la la la la la, oh yah !"

They outdo even that, there's that December song. The end goes, Yeaaaaah.... Yeaaaah.... Yeaaaaah... In a real high voice.

Musica boa mais ele so fez essa?

This song spoke to me when I was young, now I’m old, it still speaks to me! It’s hold so much meaning for me I know exactly where and what I was doing in my life when this song played on the radio every ten minutes. ❤️ thank you counting crows. 🙏

Temos que dar mais valor a musicas assim,por que hoje em dia a musica esta muito pobre em todos os sentidos.

essa banda é minha cara

13 de dezembro de 2019✌️ essa música ainda é escutada ♥️

One of those song I wish I never watched a video to

13/122019 Brasil - RJ

1,25 x nice

Dec. 13, 2019 I've witnessed this song and video as a small child,. Now, years later, as a man entering his 30's I find it's about time to finally let go....I don't think he's ever going to get his jacket off.

Justin Thomas say here brother

This fucking floored me hahahahaha

They say he leaves it on when he bangs supermodels. And he does bang supermodels. Other guys figure they're getting away with something, they secretly don't take off their socks.

This guy don't need secret socks. For that and his money, I envy him. And the supermodels.

U have murdered me sir lol

The Counting Crows had a way of "saying something" without being political, cliched, and whiny like so many other 90s bands. What an awful decade. These guys were good though.

A very talented Energetic white guy with dreads.

💞😊👍

Weren't the 90's such a great music decade?

AWESOME.... 👌👌👌

Sha la la la la-sha la la la la

I have always and will always love the voice of this poetic God of a man, beautiful music

Hello from Australia 2019#rebellionextinctiin

This song is like a fine wine

What's wrong with taking a bath and dressing nicely? Stupid song.

Ok boomer

Виз лов фром 🇷🇺

amoooooooooooooo desde sempre

I really want that jacket

I blast this song every night as I cook my husband dinner. My neighbors always ask me what's for dinner when they hear it.

Anyone listening in 2043

Es Dross!!

Anyone else jamming to this December 11th 2019?LMC

I play this song at least 3 times per day. 😁😁🌴

2nd time I hear it lol

Lol REPLAY

kevin twoheart December 12th :) I love this group

My friend and me used to to listen to this song a lot and he passed away in 2016, his birthday is Dec 14th, RIP bro.

whiny and way way overrated

Sometimes you gotta whine

Always loved this song!❤❤❤🙏😌

If I knew Picasso Id buy a great guitar and play

Love Forever.....❤🇧🇷❣

I saw them at San Diego State university. They played in a dining hall. Just before that they were on the cover of the Rolling Stone and August and Everything After was top of the charts since the booking. Adam Duritz had to step around my elbows on the stage. I said sorry dude. It was so packed I couldn't step back.

It’s almost 2020 and this song hits me every time..

Oasis James same

Oasis James oldies will never die or get old takes me back everytime

I was 18 when this song come out. I frickin' love it to this day!

the last chorus saw him rising up in ecstacy, high on opened doors of the mind, nearly there

Damn I dont remember any of this happening. Must've been hammered

Yea, those years are kinda fuzzy! At least there's no photographic evidence!! Lol

Yeah we stare at the beautiful women💯💯💯😎

Game Grumps brought me here.

Nothing like some 90s jams to get me thru my work day

Escuchando esta canción y el cielo callendose a pedazos wuuooo 🌧️🌨️

A F and G on the bass

Шала ла ла

Like si la escuchas en 2019..................................

*Man, I wish I was beautiful*

I went to New York - Broadway and looked at this theatre.
The New Amsterdam - Oh, ok, I got it ....

Sopa de macaco 🙁

I am love

Timeless beauty of a tune

This dude is a poet and he gets lumped into the wrong category

which category?

Absolutely! and I just realized that a couple of weeks ago after knowing this song for so many years.

even after ten years this songs still got it

Smoothsailor it’s been 16 years since it came out son

So good I relate

Great voice

I can't understand how ppl can actually show their dislike for any music video when they can simply scroll on and do nothing. The whole album gets a big thumbs up from me! 👍✌😎

On a nostalgia trip rn...

I CAN understand WHY 35 thousand people didn't like this video. They were really hard up for bands to actually LIKE back then...I guess that's how this one got in. I have tried a LOT of their songs..way to many BAD ones compared to the good ones, to bother with them any more.
Peace!

“Hard up for bands to actually like back then”....bwahahahahahaha back to your Jonas brothers album soy filled Gen Z clown

December 2019?

It's funny how these songs sound pretty damn good now...but back in the day they were just songs in the day to day.

I have to be honest. Counting Crows is one of the most underrated bands there is.. they are so amazing and should truly be in the rock and roll hall of fame.

One of the best songs of the 90's for sure. I'm 39,,, anyone?

I mean what's tha Goddamn Difference Between a Dove and a Crow they are Birds Dove eat dead carcuss to I Gaurentee so people hunt and eat Dove try some of these Goddamn Crow to many of them tired of this Alfred Hitchcock Land of the Birds how about Land of the Humans

Also liked the tune "Hey Mrs. Jones" by Ramesy Lewis

unfortunately i feel like most of the youngsters in my generation have no idea this song exists. i only know it because of my father. best song ever!
wish i was born in the 90’s
december 2019

Thais Levy Christ you were born in December 2019 you must be one smart baby

"youngsters in my generation" my fucking god, the ultimate zoomer

90s were the GREATEST. I wish I could go back... MUCH MUCH simpler times back then. If you like 90s music, check out "eagle eye cherry - save tonight". Thats very good as well!

Now that the dust has settled and you didn't had to get a load of this guy during the 90's, what the fuck do you think was his problem?

THAT GUY!?!! REALLY?

After all these years he still can’t get that jacket off.

Best comment.

I was singing along loudly and burst into laughter mid-lyric reading this 😂😂😂😂

Hahahaha millennials and Gen z clowns didn’t get to have any of this music as it was made and experience it in real-time......go watch You g Cheesy or whoever

Im gen z and I love this type of music

🌞 🎶🎶 Feliz Navidad mister Jon 😊👍 Kiss girlsss

He is funny to watch

Pass me a bottle Mr. Jones

cute sexy

Why does that girl in the video look like dannile brigoli

I WAS DOWN AT THE NEW AMSTERDAM STARING AT THIS YELLOW-HAIRED GIRL
MR. JONES STRIKES UP A CONVERSATION WITH THIS BLACK-HAIRED FLAMENCO DANCER
SHE DANCES WHILE HIS FATHER PLAYS GUITAR
SHE´S SUDDENLY BEAUTIFUL
WE ALL WANT SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
I WISH I WAS BEAUTIFUL
SO COME DANCE THIS SILENCE DOWN THROUGH THE MORNING
CUT UP, MARIA! SHOW ME SOME OF THEM SPANISH DANCES
PASS ME A BOTTLE, MR. JONES
BELIEVE IN ME
HELP ME BELIEVE IN ANYTHING
I WANT TO BE SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES

MR. JONES AND ME TELL EACH OTHER FAIRY TALES
STARE AT THE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
"SHE´S LOOKING AT YOU. AH, NO, NO, SHE´S LOOKING AT ME."
SMILING IN THE BRIGHT LIGHTS
COMING THROUGH IN STEREO
WHEN EVERYBODY LOVES YOU, YOU CAN NEVER BE LONELY

I WILL PAINT MY PICTURE
PAINT MYSELF IN BLUE AND RED AND BLACK AND GRAY
ALL OF THE BEAUTIFUL COLORS ARE VERY VERY MEANINGFUL
GRAY IS MY FAVORITE COLOR
I FELT SO SYMBOLIC YESTERDAY
IF I KNEW PICASSO
I WOULD BUY MYSELF A GRAY GUITAR AND PLAY

MR. JONES AND ME LOOK INTO THE FUTURE
STARE AT THE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
"SHE´S LOOKING AT YOU.
UH, I DON´T THINK SO. SHE´S LOOKING AT ME."
STANDING IN THE SPOTLIGHT
I BOUGHT MYSELF A GRAY GUITAR
WHEN EVERYBODY LOVES ME, I WILL NEVER BE LONELY

I WANT TO BE A LION
EVERYBODY WANTS TO PASS AS CATS
WE ALL WANT TO BE BIG BIG STARS, BUT WE GOT DIFFERENT REASONS FOR THAT
BELIEVE IN ME BECAUSE I DON´T BELIEVE IN ANYTHING
AND I WANT TO BE SOMEONE TO BELIEVE

MR. JONES AND ME STUMBLING THROUGH THE BARRIO
YEAH WE STARE AT THE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
"SHE´S PERFECT FOR YOU, MAN, THERE´S GOT TO BE SOMEBODY FOR ME."
I WANT TO BE BOB DYLAN
MR. JONES WISHES HE WAS SOMEONE JUST A LITTLE MORE FUNKY
WHEN EVERYBODY LOVES YOU, SON, THAT´S JUST ABOUT AS FUNKY AS YOU CAN BE
MR. JONES AND ME STARING AT THE VIDEO
WHEN I LOOK AT THE TELEVISION,
I WANT TO SEE ME STARING RIGHT BACK AT ME
WE ALL WANT TO BE BIG STARS,
BUT WE DON´T KNOW WHY AND WE DON´T KNOW HOW
BUT WHEN EVERYBODY LOVES ME, I´M GOING TO BE JUST ABOUT AS HAPPY AS I CAN
BE
MR. JONES AND ME, WE´RE GONNA BE BIG STARS...

Thank you, buddy

Gracias
