#BlueOctober #Rock #Interview
Every once in a while a band can come out of nowhere and release a song that speaks to an entire generation. The deepest reaches of the soul. In 2006 a band from Texas put out a deeply personal song that went to #2 on the the charts. Up next a can’t miss interview with the Lead singer of rock band Blue October about this song.

IN 2006 Blue October released their fourth studio album. Foiled. A few years earlier the band started to breakthrough with the song, Calling you from their album Consent to Treatment. , It peaked at #35 on Hot Adult Top 40 Tracks and had a resurgence a short time after that as it was part of the American Wedding Soundtrack.
Blue October had grown their audience from the ground floor since forming in Texas in 1995. As they developed as a band, they were later signed by Universal records in 1999. Much like how the music of Joy Division, the Cure and the Smiths would speak to the downtrodden misfits and outcasts of the world.
Blue October’s music played a similar role for those coming of age in the rock 2000s. The band gave hope to the hopeless, as lead singer Justin Furstenfeld wrote directly from his pain, no holds barred, no filter. This struck a chord on a major scale with the first single from Foiled, titled Hate Me.
The song would break through on the american charts going to #2 on the alternative airplay charts, kept out of #1 by Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Dani California. It also crossed over to the pop charts hitting #31 on the hot 100. I also crossed over the mainstream Rock charts at #21 and the adult top 40 at #13.
The song was further enriched by a brutally honest music video directed by Kevin Kerslake who’s directed music videos by everyone from Prince to the Rolling Stones, REM, Depeche Mode, Nirvana , The Smashing pumpkins and so many more. His recent documentary on Joan Jett is well worth seeing. Kerslake tapped into a tragic realism that cut to the bone.
Which matched Justin’s heart renching music and lyrics to create a mesmerizing portrayal of sound and vision. The music of Blue October is well worth a listen especially, Any Man IN America that features a song that has seen me through many a dark nights The Feel Again Stay, also check out Sway and Home. - Розваги
I have cried several times to this song. Just thinking about the shit I put my mom through as a child and young adult.
Good man for saying so 🙂🕊💞👍💙.
It seems like everyzeeone I love and/or care about dies, so please Hate Me. Don't be cursed. Hate Me Today
I'm very rude to my mom and grandma and I keep forgetting that one day they won't be here.';;..
well said.
you’re not alone, because i was the same way
Blue October live is like going to church with nothing left to live for and then leaving saved. One of the most under rated bands in rock history.
So true a lot of people thinks
they are one hit wonders. Blue October helped accept myself, forgive others, and fight to be better! Even when I feel like I can't. Helps me get through anything from all parts of my life. It's been 20 years and still clinging to their music for hope.
I'm going to see them live at the Orpheum in Boston in March. I'm so excited.
The Church of Furst.
Yep, folks sleeping on Blue October are missing out on an amazing musical, storytelling, personal story. I'm a 45 year old die hard metal head, but we don't skip blue october songs at my house lol
Never heard it said so well!
So, I'm an older guy and was never familiar with Blue October until a couple of years ago. My then 19 year old daughter came to me and her mother and said "hey, I want to go on tour with a rock band". She is a photographer and was going to tour with the band she had been working with as their photographer/merch girl/tour manager/band mom. After my initial "oh hell no!!", she and her mom managed to talk me into oking it. The band she was with was opening on tour for Blue October! She went and had an amazing experience and got to know Justin and his band pretty well. Of course we got to hear a lot of great stories and the one thing that struck me, was the kindness and decency that they treated her with. While she is a strong, independent person, she was also a young girl starting out in a crazy business. I am grateful for the way they took to my daughter and helped build her confidence and self worth. They are good guys and I will always be glad that she went and met them! I'd love to meet Justin one day and shake his hand. Not for his music, but for his decency as a person.
That was an awesome story, thanks for sharing it.
Usually at most of their shows they have a meet and greet (for an added fee). I've met him (and the band) a few times. He also does this sometimes on his "Open Book" tours. So, keep an eye out for the next date in your city and go shake his hand.
@@Cata_777 You're welcome. My favorite story happened a couple of months after the tour. Justin was doing acoustic sets and she went to see one in Waco. She took her college friend and her friend's dad, both huge Blue October fans. Neither believed that she really knew Justin. They got there early and decided to grab a bite at a pizza place next door to the venue. They walked in and who's sitting there? Justin and his band. They see my daughter and shout "Boo" (that's what they called her on tour"). They gave her big hugs and made a big deal over her. Her friend and her dad's jaws dropped to the floor. They asked if she was shooting the show, she told them no, because she didn't have a photo pass. They took her (and her friend and her dad) back to their bus and got her one. Needless to say, she earned major coolness points...lol.
@Ryan Stanford I met your daughter, backstage @ the Open Book show in Kansas City. She is an absolute doll!
Awesome story. Thanks for sharing. Reading it made me smile. I've met Justin once, and he is an amazing, humble and gracious human. I've had several interactions with Matt Noveskey, Blue October's bassist. He was the manager of the band IAmDynamite, and we had them play a house show for us in Torrance, California. Since then, he's sent video birthday greetings with the entire band, and is such a great person. They are an important band and have helped so many people. Cheers, mate.
My husband died 5 months ago. After 46 years I cannot imagine life without him. Justin , you help me grieve. This man loved me like no other.
One of the most underrated bands ever.. they are simply amazing... one of the best live acts you'll ever see. JUSTIN Furstenfeld is a lyrical genius...
I'm a music FREAK, but never listened to Blue October, until a friend turned me on to them with Hate Me in 2016. It was life changing. Now, I'm one of the biggest Blue October fans. I know all of their songs. Justin is the best singer/songwriter in the last 20 years. I got to meet him two years ago in Phoenix and he is one of the nicest, sweetest men on the planet. His lyrics have touched me more than he'll ever know.
Clean and sober for 11 years now and this song made me go back and be grateful for what we got out of. God Bless everyone !
I was his runner once. I drove him around, and we talked a lot. Chit-chat mostly, but there were a could moments of his beautiful vulnerability and strength. When i got the call to work, they told me i would be running for Blue Oyster Clut. And once i got there, i didn't know exactly who Blue October was by name. And Justin was just so full of life teasing and hugging his tour bus driver. He was working on a perfume line, because he told me once he got sober, he realized he was so high all the time that he forgot how to smell and how beautiful it was to smell again. I remember being back stage and hearing Hate Me, and realizing that is who I've been hanging out with all day! I got badass videos of the show back stage. Justin deserves is every bit as awesome back stage as he is on stage. Thanks for showcasing how awesome Justin really is!
Only band I've driven over 2000 miles to see live and would do it again and again.
Blue October is so under appreciated
The Foiled album got me through some of the absolute worst moments of my life. Blue October is hugely underrated. Justin's songwriting is some of the most honest of our entire generation. Loved this video!
That album got me through my divorce. My kids tell my husband, "You have no idea, how much this band means to her." They go to all the shows (as long as they are free) with me. I love, Love, LOVE Blue October.
I honestly had no idea who this guy was until I randomly saw his acoustic cover of “I Miss You” by Blink 182 a few months ago. I immediately looked him up, found out his band’s name, and then watched the video for “Hate Me”. As a jaded punk rocker in my 30’s that used to be too pretentious to give popular music the time of day, I’m here to say that song changed my life instantly. It truly is great. I can’t believe it took me nearly 15 years to find it but I’m glad I did.
I can’t resist the sincerity and passion of the quality of work you give us. Thank you for what you give.
Thank you so much! Fans like you make it possible.
I LOVE 💙 YOU JUSTIN. I LOVE 💙 ALL OF YOU GUYS. REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE WORTHY OF HAPPINESS. YOU ARE WORTHY OF LOVE. YOU ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL, AMAZING AND UNIQUE INDIVIDUALS. DONT EVER GIVE UP. KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT. I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY. I HOPE YOU HAVE A BLESSED DAY. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS. MUCH PEACE ✌️, LOVE 💙, UNITY AND RESPECT ✊!!!
I am from Texas and i was in my work truck. I love tonlisten to professor of rock while i work. I was listening to this video about blue octobwrs hate me song and he played a snippet of it. The part where his mom jus says " Hi this is your mother" and i just burst into tears! I lost mom going on 4 years ago and this little part of that powerful song just made me bawl like a child. Music is power. Music is a time machine. Music is love and everything.. i love you mom!
Thank you for sharing.
This song’s certified gold and tugs at my heart when I hear it. 🙏🏻🤘🏻
I dabbled with serious drinking to deal with my PTSD from Iraq. I never hurt anyone while.drinking per se. It was all undealt issues I was masking with the alcohol. This song always made me feel like shit enough to regret how I didn't handle my shit. Until I finally dealt with it, talked my shit out and put in work. I hear it now and remember the feelings from then, but also know I've put in the work where I don't have to feel like this again. One of my first concerts in Texas was blue October at shiner fest while I was at ft hood. I have always loved them since. Keep up the music, Justin. My Goddaughter just found your music and wants to go to your concert in a big way!
Texan here that’s lived in California and Texas. I’ve had a very similar past. Went down a road that wasn’t great. Thank God, I was pulled out. I’m around the same age as this guy and can completely relate. Thank you, for this great interview. Just realised, Justin and myself live in the same town. That’s great to know. ❤
Two of my favorite things, Professor of Rock and Blue October!!! I'm 57 and obsessed with them, my friends think I'm crazy. I know every single song on every album and listen to them all night long, every night.
This song brought Blue October to me. And have never left!
Blue october is my favorite band. Their songs are so emotional and amazing. I love them
Justin, my wife and I saw you walking on the River Walk in San Antonio in May 2016 when you had your concert at the Aztec Theater. You literally walked past us on the river walk, you had a shopping bag and we turned and saw you from the back and spoke to each other saying, " that was totally Justin right?" it was just so neat to have seen you in real life just a normal person, going shopping and we didnt want to go up to you because we are not star-struck people, but its this memory we will have forever knowing we walked right by you! We love your music! We have seen you several times in Houston at the House of Blues and the Woodlands Pavillion, and seeing you in San Antonio was so much fun! Hope you and your family are doing well! We love your music! :)
I'll never forget the way this song affected me. Fantastic lyrics, 6
The honesty of his lyrics are second to none
I didn't know them. Then by chance I found them. Justin reads my mind. I love how he gets it.
Hate Me is the song I would scream/sing while I was in the lowest point of my life. I would PRAY that my daughter would just forget about me and live her life happier without me. One October 12th, I got to take my daughter (who is 20 now) to see Blue October, and I got to tell Justin this story. I've never met an artist so genuine, humble, and grateful. I've been a fan for over 20 years, and my love only grows because of this like this. 💙
Love love love Blue October and Hate me is such a powerful and moving song that touched so many people. When this song first came out I would listen to it in my car with the windows rolled down blasting it. I played it so much that my 2 sons knew every word and would sing it with me.
Blue October is my favorite band of all time I heard "hate me" on the radio and fell in love I've never been touched by music in the same way that they touched me Justin's lyrics are everything the musical composition combined with it sounds like heaven to me I'm excited to say I get to see them this year in November ive seen them every time they've been here since I was 18yrs old
I've loved the song "Into The Ocean" for years, but I'm going to have to explore this band even more.
You are going to fall down a rabbit hole. Start at the beginning and enjoy the ride
@@richardplunkett2550 Thank you...I have a feeling that I will recognize some songs along the way. I realized that I recognized the song featured in this video.
The Entire Foiled Album Is Incredible.. Each Of Thier Albums Have Stand Out Tracks, But Hate Me Is Honestly One Of The Weakest Tracks On Foiled. Into The Ocean, Drilled A Wire, X-Amount Of Words, Everlasting Friend, Overweight, You Make Me Smile... Those Are The Best Imo
You are in for a treat. Richard said it best “a rabbit hole”
@tylerroam9867 "let it go" was probably my favorite song on that album, but the whole thing is so good it's really hard to pick one that's the best. They have so many good songs
Little late for this comment but. I was born in 70 and music has always been a major part of me. I have seen to many shows to list and for the past 2 decades Blue October has been the band for me. If you know you know. Their music has dragged me through some $hit. If you haven’t experienced them live, put it on your list. 10/10
I remember the day so clearly. 2006 Being depressed in highschool and having my mom drive me to bestbuy so I could buy this album. The emotion in Justin's voice helped me get through alot since then . Years later Home became my wedding song and my wife and I still listen to Blue October and our daughter dances to them as well.
Their first couple albums will always be my favorite. Great band who will always hold special place in my heart
Justin is an amazing man with a crazy story. His music means so much to me.
As a mom, this story hit me from a different perspective. That little baby that grew inside your body will always be your little boy. No matter what.
Dad's can also say that the baby was once a sperm cell in daddy's body.
@@ColtraneTaylor not exactly
Blue October & Justin Furstenfeld’s music helped save my life - literally, a few years ago. I’m so grateful for their musical gifts of honesty.
Blue Oct is criminally under appreciated
I would love to hear the story behind into the ocean, that song is my fav by them
That’s my boy! Justin is the real deal. Very talented yet humble.
Been listening to these fellers since day one. They are still on my top 3.
There is no band or singer songwriter on the planet who brings it real like Justin Furstenfeld and Blue October. I have met the band and Justin one on one, several times over the years and I am happy and proud of them for what they bring to the music table and for carrying on the music and growing as much as they have as men, fathers, husbands, brothers, and friends.
Love this song, and the band! I never knew how much this song in particular had helped me 10 years ago, until just recently! Ive always loved it, and listened to it ( and teared up every damn time!) and thought about what I've put my Dad through growing up. Thank you Justin, and Prof!!!!!
Great song. Excellent album. Fantastic band. This particular song went straight to my heart and soul. I'm bipolar and I could relate. The mother's message kills me. That was straight out of my life. Thank you Justin, your creation touched me.
The live version of Hate Me.... truely amazing
2023 I hope to see them winning many awards
Outstanding Justin pure and simple 😊
I discovered Blue October during my divorce and it was the Foiled album. I was at my lowest, most depressed point in my life. I have no doubt that this album saved my life. It spoke to me on a level that made me think that no matter how bad things were, there was a glimmer of hope. I have been a fan of BO ever since. the quarantine sessions got me through the pandemic as well. Music is a life-line sometimes.
Justin Furstenfeld saved my life. I had to go thank him personally.
I am so happy you're talking about one of my most favorite bands ever. Justin's ability to write songs that feel like he's been watching you and you only but yet hundreds of thousands who feel the same prove we're not alone even when we feel we're at our loneliest.
I've been going to their concerts since the mid to late 2000 and I just saw them again on 10/10/23 and WOW what a beautiful difference he has made in his life. As much as I loved & related to the earlier & darker works, I have to say, I'm so loving this happy, goofy, effervescence glow he has about him now and it shows so much in these newer albums and shows. You leave just feeling happy. I wish him all the continued success and all the happiness life has to offer. The entire band & management, friends & family deserve the same for never having given up on him. Now if I can just get the money to see them again next year in Nashville cause they will be playing The Ryman. What a perfect venue for a perfect band.
I took my boys to see Blue October in Fort Wayne (IN) a couple of years ago. My oldest son was a fan through me, the youngest was along for the ride. They were both in the front row off to the side of the stage. At one point, Justin jumped down from the stage and ran past them. The look on their faces was priceless after he gave them "hi fives". I wish I would have taken a picture of that, but it probably would have spoiled the moment. My thanks to Justin for that awesome bonding experience with my sons.
I cried watching this
Jus is amazing.what he did for me…. Unforgettable!!!!!!❤
I first encounter this band obviously a bit late in the 2010's with a song called "Bleed Out". What a gut wrenching heart pulling song. This guy just seems to be on the cutting edge of pain rock and can take your emotions and just rip them every which way.
A great underrated band
HATE ME was the very first song I heard from this amazing group
I was dressed up in my "clean room" garb at my job at a pharma plant and we had piped in radio - I heard this gem on the St Louis radio station "the Point"
I FELL IN LOVE
have seen them many times
Love them
Love Justin
BLUE OCTOBER FOREVER
I hope you're happy is a great song from blue october .
He hugged me once! An amazing heartfelt guy!
Loved watching Justin talk about the scene in the video with his mom...big hugs to them both ❤️ To him for having written such a powerful and painful song, and to her for going through everything and loving him throughout. I'm glad it worked out for both of them ❤️
Love you Sarah!
I remember running home each day from intermediate school, and sitting in front of the radio for hours, waiting for 'Hate Me' to come on. Hearing Blue october sing was the best part of my life that year, and that song let me fall in love with the band.
Oh my gosh. I love that you love Blue October. And Any Man in America is incredible.
This song and 18th Floor Balcony...such emotion.
When they first came out I was living in Tampa Florida. They were going to play the state fair in the early 2000’s. Bubba the Love Sponge promoted this band and seeing them live even back then it connected to you and Thanks for making great memories with their music
this song to me speak a thousand words in emotionalness. it's my mom's and i song to send love from miles away.
They are my absolute favorite band and have been since highschool.
I'm so glad you did a video on Blue October and this song. They are truly underrated, but so amazing. Hate Me is what got me introduced to them back in 2006, but they have so many great albums. Home is one of my most favorite albums of all time. IMO Justin is a true poet. His lyrics are so heartfelt and heart wrenching, you'd have to be soulless to listen to a Blue October song and not feel something.
A gamechanger, lyrical genius, indeed.
Thanks for putting the spotlight on Blue October, Professor!
They’re a bit outside your usual lane but they’re one of the few bands I respect from that decade. 👍
Exactly.😊 Great point.
My favorite favorite band. They put everything into their music. So much talent! and Justin is a genius with lyrics. If you dont know the band.. start from their first album and listen all the way thru. It is a beautiful story of recovery and redemption. 💙💙💙
i grew up listening to this song with my mom i was born in 04 and its just become me and my moms song we'd sing on late night car rides. now my moms in jail for personal stuff (nothing crazy lol) but now i sit here waiting on my mom to get out and i listen to this song on nights i cry and days i feel like i cant make it through and it gives me the umph to keep movin.
My fav band from 2000s hands down
Love the worry list from blue October
Blue October saved my life.
Omg,love this band!Thanks Justin.
I went to get tattooed at my friend's tattoo shop in state college PA a couple years ago and this guy was just in there chilling. super nice guy.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!!! Justin is so real and raw.... the acoustic version is even more powerful. Thank you, Professor!! ❤
Justin's song writing is 2nd to none. Hate me, Worry List, and many others just grab you by the feels. Whether you have lived similar experiences or not hearing justin live those moments through those songs time after time is god like abilties.
Absolutely love Justin…this was amazing 💙
They have recently started playing this on the local alternative station as a reboot. I never heard it the first time around; it's new to me.
Finally. My favorite band. Great job.
I'm with you
Love this Band I sas them in Las vegas when i lived there and in 2 wks going to see them again...
i wish i could like this more than once
We don't realize what we have until it's gone. In this case, it's the love of a mother. For others it could be the love of a good spouse, or a potential relationship.
Thank God for Blue October for being the beacon of light as we sail through the emotional seas of life.
I didn't think they would ever be spotlighted here, you all should listen to you make me smile my favorite track of there's as fellow Texans
Blue October keeps me going to this day. They are my saving grace!
God bless those that clearly see our potential when we are often blind to it.
I so love this song. It relates to many including myself but for different reasons.
I love Blue October!
Hate me introduced me to Blue October been in love ever since
Absolutely great band. If playing in a small venue near you, please go see them. Worth every dollar
the song "Independently Happy" is a song that resonates with me more than any other song ever,
This album still is brutally emotional.
So much pain, hurt and regret. It's truly beautiful. Hate me, into the ocean and Congratulations r still in heavy rotation on my life soundtrack.
This song and album were my introduction to Blue October in 2006. I then bought every album from their back catalog, and haven't missed an album since. Saw them live about 6 or so times. Great band.
This is what happened to me after my younger sister and my daughter who had been listening to them from day one. My sister always played them…I though oh not them again…then it happened …THE DAY MY LIFE CHANGED IN 20 minutes.
Saw them 2020 October in my home town Davenport, IA I walked out after the concert in a “what the heck just happened to me” feeling. My sister said I told you it was a spiritual event. She was not kidding. I don’t drink or do drugs but damn Justin touched my soul like no other. I’ve seen them at the House of Blues in Chicago 2022. And they’re coming to my little area again. Moline, Illinois 3.2.23. My brother in laws agent called their agent and 🎉 31 days until my what I call church will be here. I’m so in love with Spinning the truth around part one of 3.
Justin always stay grounded. When your fans we love you it might be the only love we’ve felt in decades!
If you ever get the chance to see them. Prepare for something bigger than words can say!
Thank you Professor of Rock for showing Justin’s venerable side. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I have just found this song and love it
Yes! This band got me through a brutal divorce in the mid-aughts. My sis and I went to see Blue October in NYC. Phenomenal show! As an extra bonus , we got to go the venue afterparty with the band, and spoke to Justin. So amazing and down to earth. Ran into him again when leaving. He was coming down the stairs, garment bags slung over his shoulder walking to the tour bus. He smiled and said ‘Hey, it’s the ‘Trouble Sisters’ , we shared a laugh and wished him well. Unforgettable.❤️
Love Blue October. I was introduced to this band by an ex-fiance. Have seen them live multiple times. Justin is a great songwriter.......... really raw.
I like Ryan Delahousse and his violin. Reminds me of my other favorite band Kansas. Deep inspiring lyrics and good musicianship from both bands.
Thanks for this Professor. Glad I researched this.
Thank you so much for featuring this AMAZING BAND! All their songs are so amazingly life altering for so many people for so many different reasons. All their songs in my opinion are platinum hits but to this day I have to say “DEBIS” is my go to song!
3:10 Man, thank you for shouting out for Stay, glad it resonated with you too, my friend!
Hands down I love this band. Their music has lifted me out of dark places. They just continue to just put out great music. Thank you Justin
I am Passionate about Justin's lyrics
me n my homie discovered these guys in 2004, we were really into punk music, but thought that these guys were different. when foil came out, we thought for sure they were gonna blow up like rise against was. took them a while, but i think they got there, even if they arent quite as big. sadly my best friend passed away in 2007 on aug 27th. he was only 19, an was the hardest time of my life, we were brothers, an although they called it a heart attack due to being to hot in a hottub, it was without a doubt drug n alcohol induced. rough times man, 15yrs later, im dealing with my own addiction, quite fitting that i stumble across these guys agian, while going through hardest of times. intuition is a powerful force.
I herd this song about 2 years ago for the first time and instantly loved it! Hate me! At the time my marriage was on the rocks and played this song with the intention of my wife hearing it in the background. I think it worked. The marriage has improved sense! Now if I could just work on my spelling!
Wow. Just. WOW.
