    Today….. After years of listening , I felt brave enough to share my story as well . Reading comments from every song , it just amazes me the affect this band has had on all of us . I left an abusive marriage in 2015 , we have kids so he is never going to go away but I’ve found my ground and stood it. this music has carried me through the anxiety , depression and hopelessness i felt . I was finally able to see them live last week. It was such an emotional experience for me , more than any one could ever understand. Thank you

    Hey. I'm Marley. I'm 12 years old and I am a week out of self harm and 5 months out of addiction of vaping, smoking, and alcohol. I grew up in an abusive house and was s*xually assaulted a lot of my life. God/whomever bless Blue October for making this song. My mom showed me this song and I'm so thankful for that. I showed my friend DJ this song because he is also going through stuff. Love you Blue October. 💙💙💙
    XOXO,
    MarMar J❤️

      4:47 Marley, you are so brave and beautiful to admit at your young age the things that you have. I am so proud to be able to read this and wish that I had been that brave at 12, 40+ years ago. I have been extremely self destructive in my life because it mirrors your own. I am much older and still have so much to learn as you do. The one piece of advice I can offer/give someone your age that I can see a reflection of myself in is 1) every morning when you stand in front of the mirror you say to yourself “Marley if no one has told you today that they love you I love you” and hug yourself tightly 2) no matter what is wrong in your life, no matter the pain, past, horrific thoughts and situations, no matter how broken you may feel, every single day you have to put both feet on the ground and put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward in your life away from this part. You will never forget what happened however it does not create or define who you will become as an adult but it will always be there and a part of you. I am so sorry that you had to struggle and survive this at such a young age because I remember those horrible times and moments when I had no power or control or choices. But remember this kiddo, you are not just a survivor, like me you are a mother fucking warrior now and you must keep telling your story. You may be able to help another child or adult regardless if you know it or not. I will be keeping you and your mother in my prayers each and every day. Good luck with your future and keep going forward and never give up hope.

      Hey there, not gonna preach to you, but long story short, God brought me out of a destructive addiction that destroyed my marriage. Almost lost my kids and everything, but after 40 years of doing things my way I gave up and gave it to God and got saved. Through Jesus, God restored me and then some. He’s a good God and didn’t die on a cross to make it hard. All the love and prayers your way!

    I’m a long term chronic pain patient and I’m still here because of their music. Sounds dramatic but it’s the truth.

And I just started tearing up while listening, the last bit really got me. Now l’m watching this video while I’m sitting in the patient room waiting to see my dr..

We saw you and the band in Albuquerque on November 4th. I was blown away. THANK YOU so much. My healing is getting better thanks to you and BLUE OCTOBER. Please don't stop writing incredible songs. I know you are making a POSITIVE impact in so many lives. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

  • @Kaalyn_HOW
    @Kaalyn_HOW 9 років тому +181

    The only band/man I've ever known who gives the same passionate singing in his videos as he does on stage. ....not the "pretty" lip syncing. But the "I'm screaming with all I have in my body until you can hear me through this screen" singing. I will never not respect that. And, I'm also in love with the revival in this song. It felt very true to him unlike a couple more recent tracks. "The same" but with growth. Which is the kind of "different" that maintains authenticity and integrity. And that's the most admirable transition a band/person can make. I love it. Moving song, video, person, band. Always.

      Good example. There are/were many other older bands that were awesome in the ways PG was trying to explain. She forgot about the other half of the band though, Justin would be nowhere without his band and esp Ryan(violin and strings)that is a huge part of their sound for me.

    PTSD fear is especially potent. That FEAR needs its own word. It’s been almost 2 years….. but
    I just faced my attacker. Did what needed to be done and as I walk/ran from the courthouse to my car the only thing in my mind was the word FEAR. The second the door closed I BURST. burst into tears. The burst must have had a shockwave because tears and fears and forms of energy I can’t name, all burst out of me at the same time.
    . Immediately pull up this video and ugly cry while my heart stitched together for the first time since almost 2 years ago.
    Thank you Justin.

      Well, honestly, I don't get that from Justin... I keep getting that "YOU'RE your proof!" Kinda thing... Taking on this song and others as a cadence helped me keep in mind what Will Smith had to say during his retelling of his paradigm shift with "fear" and jumping out of a perfectly good airplane... There's certain people that have spoken/narrated some motivational stuff that I want to carry with me, slowly replacing all the heavy stuff I didn't CHOOSE to carry with me. (Yes, Linkin Park reference.) THIS song, home, calling you, and into the ocean have helped me grow past that self deprecation and justifying negative self-talk that was keeping me from being self compassionate... Guess I can give myself a chance these days?

    One year ago, I came to this video and commented about how much I wanted the lyrics to be true for me, just like it is for Justin. At the time, I didn't actually believe or think that that was a possibility for me. I had completely given up on myself and the world, and any possibility of me getting any better, being happy.
    But here I am, one year later, and the things that I thought were so impossible, things that I never believed I'd have for myself, the things that Justin has, I now DO have. Something I so longed for and wanted I FINALLY have. I haven't been happy in years and now I finally am. I believe that things can change for me and get better. They've already started. And believe me when I say that this song has been a HUGE part of that healing. I'd listen to it so much and just want this.
    And now I have it.

I am 30, and I've been this way since half-way through my teens. I've tried to grow and change so many things, I don't even know who I am... and I don't know if trying to change MORE is going to have any different results than it has been up to now. I feel hopeless and jealous that others have found things I can't. I wish I had the hope for me you do. I haven't given up, but man I don't feel any hope anymore. I want it all to just end.

    Will use you up and break you down
    Like you were never enough
    I used to fall but now I get back up
    I'm moving on
    Oh God just move on
    Today
    I don't have to fall apart
    I don't have to be afraid
    Get back up
    Get up
    Feel it, fear, wow
    And now fear, fear in itself can use you up
    And then breaks you down
    You're never enough
    And I used to fall
    Breathe
    Ask for more
    If you're bitter still
    Ask him to help you carry on

    Looking back on their old stuff, THIS is how a band/front man should evolve, keeping things familiar but actually maturing as time goes on. Once upon a time Blue October sang about somber topics such as depression, divorce, suicide, and hatred now have a song about forgiveness, compassion, acceptance, perseverance and happiness. All of my respect goes to Justin Furstenfeld for not only allowing himself to walk down a better path, but also showing people out there that life doesn't always have to be about the bad things. Mad respect Justin, keep up all the fantastic work!

    "Fear, in its many forms-of loss, loneliness, change-reveals our vulnerability. Yet, it's within this vulnerability that we find our true strength, for in facing our fears, we learn resilience and the depth of our love for friends and family. It's a testament to our humanity, that even when things don't go right, we find ways to persevere and find light in the darkness."

    It was approximately 8 years ago when I was at my lowest. For whatever reason I felt extremely lonely and especially in the evenings, it was almost unbearable. Like a cold veil that fell heavy on my body. A heavy weight I carried around. I came across this song by Blue October and found some comfort in it, and strength. And eventually I made the necessary changes in my life and got back up. For all of you who are struggling, there is always a sun behind the clouds, a light in the deepest darkness and a god beyond the demons. Keep going. I promise you, you will come out stronger. Do not give up.
    After all these years, I listen to the song with memories, but with a strong heart. Thank you, Blue October.
