Pavement - Range Life (Official Video)

Man I get nostalgic watching these songs, saw them at Reading not the festival, England with their old drummer handing out playing cards to the crowd coming in, I didn't even know he was part of the band as I had just heard their music on records! sigh

I’m 56 and somehow I missed out on this band. I don’t know how, they are AMAZING!!!

90s babes will always be the hottest in history. Terror Twilight was the best Pavement album. Feel free to at me.

Damn im old lol,saw them at reading bk in the day,sure this video has a reading clip in.

the reluctant leaders of the alt rock school of indie music in the 90s.

me lembrei da musica e resolvi ouvi la.

the whole effect is miraculous

One of my favorites songs really. It goes beyound the video, this song is among my absoulute best of my lifetime. So long Pavement and Malkmus!

Hey smashing pumpkins: 🖕🖕

song is awesome.. too much white male though..but white male from the 90s are almost nice

Im going to do a cover right now

ya

❤❤❤❤❤

I always cry when this song comes up in my player.

I use this song for vocal warm-up. I know all the notes.

This is a great band definitely in my top 20 favorite bands

I wonder if his childhood home is historically preserved yet

this song manages to sound incredibly somber to me somehow and I like it for that

nice one, didnt know it

Good god loud ass beep

Now hit it with some soul, because......their hurting people

This album changed my life no lie. It came out in my senior year in high school and suddenly I was an “indie kid”. I was o seeded with Pavement and Guided By Voices and it felt like they were my own little secret.

Lowlands when it was still fun

This brings me back❤❤❤

They sucked at the SDSU show.

his voice reminds me of the intro of the Berserk anime, and Daniel johnston

Great song. The nineties were essentially the last chilled decade before things deteriorated globally. 911 and the so-called digital revolution seemed to catalyse an ongoing drift into a dystopian future.

school's out, what did you expect?

<3

I love the stones, kinks, smashing pumpkins, bob dylan, tool, radiohead, jane's addiction, elvis costello, sonic youth and many more but crooked rain is my # 1. favorite album of all time.😌

awesome

If you guys like this, Stephen Malkus was also a member of The Silver Jews and The Jicks.

Mejor banda y mejor canción de los 90's 👌🙂👍

The early 90s were my favourite time being alive. . 80s was ok, 00s- meh? 92 to 2000... jeez some good times were had... i miss it, i hate knowing itll never be that great to be alive for me... shit happens i guess

this makes me long for the early nineties... great music, great clothes... late teens... wore my "Dirty"-t shirt, knee long black shorts
+docs, and just walking around with my friends, giggling, quoting movies and books and the future was ahead of you....

Why did you censor my favorite Pavement song????? I'm so mad...

They just played this on the Australian tour. Was fantastic. First saw them in 1993

I like both bands.

Absolutely terrible 🤢🤮🤢

This song reminds me of the days when I could stay awake for a week and feel OK after a couple of hours sleep and beans on toast! ☠️

I really want Stephen Malkmus shirt in this.

You know what I love in the middle of my favorite song? A nice, loud, atonal BEEEEEP.

smashing pumpkins, stone temple pilots

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
After the glow, the scene, the stage, the set
Talk becomes slow, but there's one thing I'll never forget
Hey, you gotta pay your dues
Before you pay the rent
Over the turnstiles and out in the traffic
There's ways of living; It's the way I'm living
Right or wrong, it's all that I can do
And I wouldn't wanna let you be

[Chorus]
I want a range life
If I could settle down
If I could settle down
Then I would settle down
I want a range life
If I could settle down
If I could settle down
Then I would settle down

[Break]

[Verse 2]
Run from the pigs, the fuzz, the cops, the heat
Pass me your gloves, this crime, it is never complete
Until you snort it up and shoot it down
You're never gonna feel free
Out on my skateboard, the night is just humming
And the gums smacks are the pulse I'll follow if my Walkman fades
But I've got absolutely no one
No one but myself to blame

[Bridge]
But don't worry, we're in no hurry
School's out, what did you expect?

[Chorus]
I want a range life
If I could settle down
If I could settle down
Then I would settle down
I want a range life
If I could settle down
If I could settle down
Then I would settle down
Yeah

[Break]

[Verse 3]
Out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins
Nature kids, I, they don't have no function
I don't understand what they mean
And I could really give a fuck
The Stone Temple Pilots, they're elegant bachelors
They're foxy to me, are they foxy to you?
I will agree they deserve absolutely nothing
Nothing more than me

[Outro]
Dreaming, dream dream dream dream dream
