Lyrics:
I only see myself reflected in your eyes
So all that I believe I am essentially are lies
And everything I've hoped to be or ever thought I was
Died with your belief in me so who the hell am I?
I'm wondering 'round confused
Wondering why I try
The more that you deny my pain
The more it intensifies...
I pray for someone to ache for me the way I ache for you...
If you ignore that I'm alive
I've nothing to cling to
Filter, Helmet, NIN, Stabbing Westward, Gravity Kills, White Zombie and Ministry was all putting out some outstanding music at this time.
helmet doesn't belong in that list helmet was like the hidden link between tool, korn, rage
+nicholas biddle I put them on this list because they were an important part of the early hard edged alternative sound of the 90's. It is also good to name check a band like them to help get them better recognition to some people who may have not heard of them. Who cares whether they belong on this list. They belong on a list of important 90's metal/altetnative.
+NAPTOWN NUISANCE They absolutely belong on this list.
NAPTOWN NUISANCE
yea they belong on that list but i saw u post a similar comment on another video stating they were all putting out similar music,
the other bands mentioned were industrial
Most underrated band of the 90s
Joey Bingham i still don’t get why the fuck this band never blew up in the ‘90s. I can count one one hand the amount of people I’ve met who even know who they are; most people assume I’m referring to a movie when I say Stabbing Westward.
Failure, homie.
That and Local H although Stabbing Westward was pretty hot here for a time.
Christopher Hall is in my top 10 favorite vocalists. Insanely haunting voice
They're amazing.
This band was fuckin phenomenal and sadly they never got the recognition they deserved. Im still listening at 53...one of favorite bands of all times
I'm 53 also. It's kinda funny because I STILL kinda think of "nursing home music" as things like Johnny Mathis, Barry Manilow, and older. But the truth is that we are really not too far from having nursing homes full of head-bangers blasting ALL the good shit! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
This is the best stalker song 🫵🏻🔥👊🏻💪🏻👿🪓🤙🏻
This song brings so many memories of summer of 96.
Facts…It was an amazing concert year that year when 311 absolutely blew TF up I saw them around 32 times that summer of 96. Not that anyone cares but this song was a double edged sword bc I was dating this amazing woman & she was cool but I guess I did t have what it took to keep her. I used to always pretend to be the psycho guy in this video chasing around that dumb girl who actually reminded me a lot about her.I wish I could go back to the summer of 1996 & kick my own ass and tell the girl to royally KISS my ass & dump TF out her…Ahhh that was actually kind of cathartic getting that off my chest…She ended marrying a complete dork who starting balding at 17…Go get em dummy 🫵🏻🤮
Christopher Hall is such a great singer. These guys never got enough credit. I have all of their albums and they're all great.
They have new stuff out now on COP International, which is really cool
Did they reform?
And of course you have to have The Dreaming as a part of it. Sony did some sour stuff to band, but I am glad they are back touring again.
@@psikopat57 They reformed in 2016 and have been touring since. They are releasing a new album this month. Pretty much just Christopher and Walter from the original group though.
new album in march 2022
Possibly the most underrated song of the 90s. I can remember driving my car 90 mph when to this song, taking out my anger of teenage angst lol
I did the exact same!
I listened to this when my 1st gf broke up with me and idk how I lived driving fast and punching the steering wheel. Good times lol
Me driving between Baltimore and NY after being divorced.
Screaming their songs out
Me too lol I loved listening to a lot of these songs and prodigies for the land and stuff like that while driving around for hours stabbing westward was the s*** in high school and I'm so glad to see this and to be able to talk to fans 30 plus years later lol
I still am doing this exact thing as we speak
We don’t search for old songs
we search for old memories.
There u go . Right on.😊
I saw these guys in Virgina beach back in the 90's. I just walked into this place and I had no idea who was playing and then they played this song. I was impressed. Memories indeed.
"nostalgia is the name of the game in every part of our world today...when people have been stripped of their private identities, they develop huge nostalgia."
Marshall Mcluhan - 1977
Preach brother
I dont search for memories, they hit me !!
I'm 47. Everyone of their albums f****n' rocked. What a voice. What angst in the lyrics and execution. Would love a reunion tour (after Covid-19 dissipates, of course). And, yes, the blank stares you get when you bring up this band in conversation.
Should happen. They are working on a new album and had shows scheduled before the pandemic.
Think it's on soon, dude
I was very disappointed with Christopher Hall selling out to mainstream music with his post SW project "The Dreaming". He's an amazing songwriter.
I saw them in 1999 for the Darkest Days tour, and the crowd was really energetic. I saw them again in 2017, and you had the old "Too many cell phones in the air schtick". Although, at one point, Christopher did grab one of the phones out of the hands of a person and did a panorama of the room and stage before handing it back. So, I guess that person has some good memories on camera app now.
These guys and Static X need to go on tour together. Chris Hall still has it as evidenced by their new album. It's fantastic and a perfect fit with their classic material.
Whoever directed this video is a bloody genius. It will always be one of my all time favorites. Great acting from the crazy fellow
For real, this is one of the most memorable videos in history IMO. The story. The acting. Damn.
It reminds me of old school horror films where you don’t see blood, just torment. Like old Hitchcock. The 90s was such a different time from now creatively.
Kinda looks like Ezra Miller..huh..
@@leviathan_is_me I never thought of that but I can't usee it now. How fitting 😆
@@gena4638 fitting yes, also I have to give you props for returning to comment on a comment that is commenting on one of your comments that is 2 yrs old....we can smell our own.
@@leviathan_is_me Lol...very true! Love seeing replies on years old comments on videos like this and realizing many, world wide, have that same appreciation for whatever topic is being discussed.
I'm not joking when I tell you I've been looking for this song for the past 20+ years. I was 10 when this song came out and I could only remember the end of the music video and nothing else. I'm not even sure how I got here but I'm glad I did.
That's awesome. Glad you found the video!
Dude, same.
Gotta love that feelin’
Glad u did
Same here, I been looking for 25 years. I could only remember pieces of the video. I did think it was Stabbing Westward but thought it was 'Save me ' But the video and song was wrong.
Anyways i finally found it just now
Maybe it’s just the people I associate with, but I feel like this band never got the credit or fanfare they deserved. I can count on one hand the amount of people I’ve met who actually know who Stabbing Westward are; most people assume I’m talking about a movie.
I used to record music videos on a VHS tape off MTV, and this one was on there. I was just a kid at the time, but fell in love with this band immediately. Terrific song and a great video.
I got my mom into them when I was eleventeen and we both still rock out to them today.....Hope to catch a show.
Manbearpig I used to record music videos off of MTV as well when I was like 15 or 16. I recently found one of those tapes and this video was on there (along with many great others). I’ve never met anyone who know who Stabbing Westward is, they look at me like I’m on crack ;( but yes this was a great song and video.
I couldn’t agree more mate!
I can't tell you how glad I am to know my RECORD EVERYTHING fetish ... wasn't do weird after all..
Full WALLS of tapes 😎
THey were pretty big in their day
Damn this is almost 20 years old....I feel old as fuck
I hear that. hahahaha
You said it. I saw these guys open for KISS in 96. This was the opening tune. They were badass. To hang with KISS they had to be. 20 years ago in just a few months.
I started listening to this group when I was staitioned at Hill AFB, UT just after I got married in '98 I still love hearing this music to this day
This album is now considered an antique. It's 25 years old. Holy fuck.
@@Neurotripsicks crazy ain’t it...time flies
Shame is the very first song I heard by Stabbing Westward.
I was a young teen and I remember watching Mtv.
This song came on and it just hit me harder than a dumptruck.
Then I heard "Save Yourself" and I was hooked. Still one of my all time favorite songs.
Love me some Stabbing Westward.
And good bud
I first heard them on the radio when this came out and loved it to death! It really hit me too. It was perfect for me then as an angry teenager and it still is now that I am almost 50!
Same! What are you 43?
What do I have to do is the song that got me
Save yourself was mine! I am 38!
This song is 25 years old and it still kicks ass!
Yessir
27 now
Yes " MUCH ASS !!! 💪 🔥
Timeless
I always loved how much plot this video had.
There were three videos that made one whole story from this band.
What were the other two? @@jimmyjshorror
I’m amazed this has 3.4 million views. We’re bringing the 90’s back!
This song hits the soul....Im 40 now..Sounds soooo FUCKING GOOD
43 in dec...feel the same. Perfect age for this music.
Dude.. this song came out in 1994- , O.J./Nicole Simpson.
F'd up thing was I divorced my wife of 7 years , like 2 months before either shite- strife happened. I used to be a stand-up comedian, so fn timing, NEH? 🎉
Same brother. 40 years old, but I remember hearing it when I was a teenager and just going "WOW!".
44 and it still bangs hard.
2022. I'm 30 years old and I JUST discovered Stabbing Westward for the first time.
They just put out a new album after being broken up for 10-15 years. ua-cam.com/video/1nZDp0QTEXg/v-deo.html
Another timeless underrated band of the 90s
I'm 15 and I think this band rocks
wait till you find VAST
Im 15 also and I feel the same way
I’m 40 and used to call the radio station to request this song. So glad you’re able to discover it.
@@lukescott8932 Vast? Elaborate please 😊
@@jp360ford2 artist vast :song touched. Or pretty when I cry. Anything of the first album really :)
That is what's known as a "landline phone," kids. They were all the rage!
No caller ID either
And Siri wouldn’t make the call for you unless you had a maid named Siri.
bell south baby!!!!
I'm 56 years old and have a rocker's soul. Been listening to it all my life. I always say songs which change from one level of ferocity to another have a great rocking spirit. This is one of them. Since I am this age is it normal for me to listen to jams like this? I think it is. It means my soul is still young.
I'm 51 and right where you are with music. I keep feeling like I should act my age and listen to jazz or something. But no, I am young at heart. So I metal on \m/
Im only 41 but I seriously do think that music is one of those things you experience in life that effects your soul. When you hear something you like, it speaks to you and moves you despite age. I have so many songs that literally bring on memory after memory as if the two were synced to each other.
Im 45 ..in 5 days .. but .. old skool is oldskool .. im genaration 9o... 80. Tis .. are .. was Baby there .. but this music ... First Games ... ❤❤❤❤ Ahh guckit .. great time
Same
I'm 61 and love these guys! Been listening to their music for years. Don't let anyone define you, rock on baby!!!!!✌️
"The most dangerous psychological mistake is the projection of the shadow on to others; this is the root of almost all conflicts." - Carl Jung
Truth
In layperson's terms, what does the quote mean? Ty.
I bought this CD at Target after seeing this video on MTV that day.
16 year old me was blown away by this and it stands the test of time. Man this is good
Play it on a real system n will love life!
WHAT A VOICE !!!
Clearly one of the most underrated "industrial metal" bands ever...
Saw them live on the 20th Anniversary Tour for Darkest Days 2 years ago. Chris sounded as amazing as ever.... hit every single note like he hadn't missed a beat.
The drummer 😂
Hes the next john Bonham. I get a kick out of him tbh😂
Grabbing a handset telephone and waiting beside it was the most 90s thing ever.
underrated band. Christopher Hall is a fantastic singer.
I only see myself
Reflected in your eyes
So all that I believe I am
Essentially are lies
And everything I'd hoped to be
Or ever thought that I was
Died with your belief in me
So who the hell am I
I don't know if I am real without you
What is left of me without you
I don't know what's real without you
How can I exist without you
I'm wandering around confused
Wondering why I tried
The more that you deny my pain
The more it intensifies
I pray for someone to ache for me
The way I ache for you
If you ignore that I'm alive
I've nothing to cling to
I don't know if I am real without you
What is left of me without you
I don't know what's real without you
How can I exist without you
I stare into this mirror
So tired of this life
If only you would speak to me
Or cared if I'm alive
Once I swore I would die for you
But I never meant like this
I never meant like this
No I never meant like this
I don't know if I am real without you
What is left of me without you
I don't know what's real without you
How can I exist without you
How can I exist without you
How can I exist without you
Thanks homie, Good on ya. Cheers!
My first serious girlfriend and I broke up the year this song came out. I was an angsty ‘90s kid. This song’s lyrics spoke to me in that moment.
Omg, thank you! I kept thinking he was saying, how can I have sex without you lol facepalm
You can't beat '90's Alternative Rock.
Sure can't, yet denial for some.
From divorce to addiction and then the most toxic relationship of my life....this band played in the background. That's a compliment....and these songs still give me life today.
- Maybe we should get Christopher.
- Naw man he's jamming.
Cool name
I love that moment lol
Best part
At 52, I just heard this song for the first time a couple weeks back. Had to take a pic of my Sirius xm so I wouldn't forget it. Never a big fan of them, liked em, but not a band I would go out of my way to listen to. How I missed this song is beyond me. I cant turn the volume dial up any higher.....
They opened for KISS during the 1996 reunion tour and blew the lid off the San José Sharks Arena. Damn, I miss them. One of the best live bands I ever saw.
yeah they also opened for Depeche Mode I was really close to stage and the lead singer was crazy and it was so loud but he was really into it lol
I saw them in sacramento on that tour. Thought it was an odd pairing. I like SW... But was surprised they got th opening gig. They kicked ass. Then KISS brought the place to a head and blew it up! Awesome show!
@@dmsalvador8303 . was that in oakland Dec. 11th? I believe I was there. Awesome show. Good combo.
I just realized how many stalkerish songs there were then. Garbage released "#1 Crush" in 1995, then Stabbing Westward came out with this one in 1996, and then in 1997 Portishead came out with "All Mine." What a great time for music.
Heck most of Stabbing Westward's songs are about messed up relationships.
He wrote a whole album for a girl he lost ..all stalking
those were good times. i was in high school in those days. yet, i was aware that trent reznor did have a problem with stabbing westward but he was conflicted since the drummer at that time was someone he used to play with in the exotic birds and played drums on the title track to "the downward spiral". i think the reason stabbing westward got pushed immensely at that time because NIN got successful and every record company wanted to get every band that sounded like NIN during a time when trent was inactive.
I want a boyfriend who knows who Stabbing Westward are, and still has the 90s grunge look.
Shit... I just love it.
Amazing!
It's been a year. I'll bet you're still single AF.
Me too, where is my Chris Cornell? I still love Grunge, come to my page it's the Chris Cornell Fanclub on FB.
I’m here. Lol
Maximus Max I am still single AF, because I have standards!
IntoTheMindlessAbyss hit me up ;) haha
@@chrissimpson6701 Hells yes! I just joined ;)
I first discovered Stabbing Westward when I was a kid back in the mid 90's. I think it was 96 or 97. It was late one night and I had MTV on. This music video came on and I was instantly obsessed. So glad I did. I've been a SW fan ever since.
Same here. I was born in 1984. I discovered them one morning when MTV's rude awakening was on, and have been a fan ever since 🍻
Same here I saw them on MTV in like 1996 and also hearing them on the radio. I was 7 at the time.
Stabbing Westward is the perfect combo of power bass, slightly mentally disturbed lyrics, and a frontman with the voice of a modern fallen angel. Dark, disturbed, yet seeking.....that is the feeling one has when listening to this band. And they just don't make them like this anymore!
Agreed
Well put
4 years late. I found a band doing a similar sound but doing their own thing with it. Check out Thornhill's track 'Arkangel' ua-cam.com/video/ew04Md9YUvk/v-deo.html&ab_channel=UNFD
Bass player is in Orgy too
One of the most well crafted videos ever. And the song can still hold up today, in 2021.
eles estão bem aqui mesmo
I'm surprised how not famous this band is (or ever was). I know they are still played on the radio but I rarely meet anyone who knows who they are.
They deserved much more fame than they received. Don't take pity on them though. Lol
+DoomDash They are our best kept secret! ;)
true that ... totally underrated band! got in touch with them with darkest days album, then duke nukem came out, never forget those days :)
If you're into them, check out The Dreaming. It's Christopher Hall's new band, and it now includes Walter Flakus and Johnny Haro, so that's three former Stabbing Westward members in the band.
I suppose they don't match today's aesthetic of modern pop or rock, but I do wish they'd pop up on my Sirius more often. They deserved at least a little more recognition from the alternative scene!
"You couldn't save them, they couldn't even save themseleves."
Six true fans got that. ;)
Ahh.. I saw them twice live in the 90's ... Still get goosebumps
Lucky you.
These guys got me through my teen years in the 90s and here it is 2019 and my dad passed away Christmas morning by my side so back they come to help some more
R. I.P dad we all miss you so so much
Its 3 years late but really sorry about your dad. Hope you are ok.
They got me through my teens too, man. Sorry about your dad.
It's been Years ago and healing 😔 finally
the 1990’s music is as far distance as the 1960’s music was at that time… 26 years later this song is still being heard in 2022!!
and in another 26 i’ll be 73…
Probably the 1 band I really regret not ever seeing live.
Saw them at the Electric Factory in Philadelphia and it was baller.
@@DWRoelands since making this comment, I caught their 2019 tour in San Diego. Great show.
Awesome live band!
When I first saw this video in MTV's '120 Minutes', I remember thinking, 'somebody needs to tell the dude playing the stalker, 'hey man, this is just a video'.
That dude is totally a method actor. lol.
Jerome Hoyle Matt Pinfield and then,he was FORCED to ad lip for that PATHETIC WORTHLESS MEDIOCRE, Ricky Martin GARGABE!
He was in the movie 'Deep Rising" got ate and fell out of the creature partially ate.
Dude was intense and totally believable as a psycho.
HELLO JULIE!! How can I exist without you!😮
This band should have gotten a lot more attention than they did!
So glad I saw these guys in 1997, I was 15. Still love them!
Ive seen these guys twice and his voice is great after all these years
I'm 67 years old and love this music
Remember blasting this in my 89 dodge Daytona back in 96 … 2 Orion xtr 10” Orion amps , and eclipse head unit & speakers ! Man I wanna go back for one day !
In 1996 I was blasting this in my 87 Dodge Daytona. I had two 12 inch XTRs. lol. Gotta love the 90s.
This is real. I'm lost everyday.I appreciate this song,hits my heart and life hard thanks Stabbing Westward
My # 1 song favourite from this band. 26 years ago when I first heard of this, Save yourself and What do I have to do. Seems like it was just yesterday but still I miss the rock hits of the 90s. Thanks UA-cam. With ♥️ from the Philippines.👍✌️🤘😉
Wither, Blister, Burn and Peel and parts of Darkest Days are almost a biography of My first marriage and the subsequent divorce. I was so wrapped up in the relationship that when in it ended I didn't want to go on. The closest I got was playing chicken with Semi-Trucks. In the music I found a shared pain that helped Me cope and carry on. Chris's lyrics were literally therapy.
I met Christopher Hall once.He is very short and I am only 5'6" but towered over him.The other guys in the band hung out with the crowd after the show and I got to meet them.Nice bunch of guys.
I like how they realized the obsessive nature of the lyrics and play into that for the plot of the video. Christopher has got some pipes on him. The video is great too. Nice story line. Great acting. Good humor from the band. 10/10
Easily one of the best 90s songs. These guys had great videos too. I feel old remembering this first releasing on MTV as a teenager
I love the grin when he says "Institutionalized?"
This was my teen anthem. Chicago bands are awesome!
The 90's was such a golden age for Chicago music.
I saw one of the two shows they did in 2017 (might be the year before) in Philly. He's still awesome. Got to meet him and the bass player who also plays bass for Orgy. That was an epic night! Fulfilled a dream of mine I had since I was 14.
They are going to be in NYC next month 😊
Only 2.4 million views? One of my favorite music videos, from when bands were creative with their videos.
Being a extreme metal head for over 25 years and a teenager in the 90s, I never gave bands like Stabbing, Gravity Kills, Filter etc much thought back then. I appreciate the hell out of them more now in the last few years. Love it now.
How can I exist without this...
3:36 that shot is so iconic in my mind!!!
One of the greatest videos of all time. Keeps you interested until the very end. This actor could have played Joker or Carnage.
One of the best music videos of all time.
This video has far better script than 99% of movies out there.
Anything could have been on MTV at midnight 25 years ago when I was 18. But it was this...
Who's still listening in 2024?
I will always be listening to bands like this
Miss these days
Here
Just saw them at Upheaval Festival in Michigan. Great show!
this band freaking shreds
One of the greatest bands in the world! Love you to death since 1993! STABBING WESTWARD FOREVER!
SW's best song and a really good music video. It's rare when they actually have a storyline. 🤣
Back when we knew how to make kick ass music. I miss Stabbing Westward.... Twisted. Real. Raw.
I spent some teenage years in the 90's listening to "Darker Days" but somehow it took a couple decades for me to find this song....where were my priorities?
You found it - that's the main thing ;)
This band literally saved My life....... I got the chance to tell Chris that in person a couple years ago at The Dreaming concert, great guy!
Fuuuck...I forgot how much I love this band!
I saw these guys live in 99 and it was my fourth concert ever and the first time I crowd surfed.
Dope
They were my first. Sadly they broke up right after that
good times
Me too zeta fest 99 south Florida
the beat of this song gives me chills when I play it in my truck, I have a total sound package and it sounds amazing. I love this song so much.
When you need a movie in 4 minutes. This song hits it
I’ve been trying to remember this song for years. I used to listen to this cassette all the time as a teen.
I don't know I'm 54 gonna be 55 in a few month's and I'm not into rap or hip-hop but the progression of rock music heavy metal and the band stabbing westward an expansion of metal called industrial only proves that it can take awhile but sooner or later it show's myself and leaves it's Mark in the music industry forever and I say keep it coming.
I still have this CD ;)
So do I.
same
Me too
This is my favorite music video of all time.
AWESOME song!!!! It rocks me to the core and I'm 61 years young!!!! LOVE it!!!!!
I remember in highschool, one time my boyfriend and I broke up and got back together, he wrote me a letter that had some of the lyrics to this song in it. I took him back and remember being impressed that he knew who Stabbing Westward was. Sadly, we met too early in life, had we met as adults, there could've been something. We stayed very close and always loved eachother though. Sadly he passed away about eleven years ago when we were 28. He never got the chance to get married or be a father, which he would have been wonderful. It was always bad timing with us. I miss him.
Great song, great band, so glad I grew up with some good music.
The only way to listen to this song is at full volume.
Hell yeah
I have a love/hate relationship with this song, it's a great song but I was stalked in college when I lived in the dorms and it brings back bad memories. Love the music and they definitely got the obsessed mindset right!
I miss this band.... Hell, I miss music like this! The 90's was such a GREAT time for music.
Even though they broke up, It still is a Retro Classic when I was only 19.
They're back. Just released a new album last month!
This song still rocks so fucking much to this day and always will!!! You cannot help but head bang when that iconic guitar riff kicks in!
Oh does this ever bring back memories. Old school!
Back in 2013, I put this song on a jukebox at a bar I used to go to regularly. Two guys sitting near me immediately said something like "Wow, Stabbing Westward. I haven't heard this song in ages". I was so happy that other people in the bar recognized this kick ass song.
Top 5 videos of all time, imo.
this song rocked back in the day. they were awsome live too. still love these songs.
23 years later and this song is still just as amazing as the first time I heard it!
It's nice to see that NIN's leftovers still warm up so well after all this time.
Saw them at The Edge in Palo Alto in '96. One of my all time favorite shows.
One of my ALL TIME FAVORITE SONGS........LOVE IT
One of my favorite songs and videos. The comedic juxtaposition of Chris' intensifying lyrics against the band realizing he's gotten a bit too weird, all mixed in with the brilliant little dramatic vignette of the woman escaping her psycho ex. Just a really great transposition of song into film.
How did I forget this song? Or this band? I loved them in the 90s. I guess that's what happened to them with most people. Kicking myself cause they jam! Glad my friend reminded me of them the other day, and now I can't stop listening!
I like 90s better than 70s 80s!!!! I’m used to these songs I love. My sons as teenagers played these. God I love these songs. Sing to them everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the best music videos ever! It actually goes with the song. They just don't make them like they used to!
