I think everyone knows someone who is, or has been addicted to heroin. It's truly the devils drug. I know this from pure experience... Have been addicted for 5 years now and everything i seem to try, fails.... :( but one day i will overcome. This song speaks volumes to me. Thank you so much for uploading it. And ppl. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE for the love of God, do not look down on someone's addiction. More likely than not they don't want to be where they are, and I'd bet my life they'd change in AN INSTANT if they could, or if just one person reached out and offered real help... I never thought I'd see the day i would say I'm a heroin addict. I know there's a better way and good people out there willing to help. Don't turn your back on us, i believe there's always hope. God bless you all and thank you goo goo dolls for this song
"I take these things so I don't feel..... cause feelings hurt. That's what he said to me. Finally he didn't feel anything anymore. No need to fear feeling. He was gone, there was no time left to live. Or say goodbye. I've seen the needle and the damage done. The abandoned wreckage is heartbreaking.
This Black Balloon performance is one of the best I have ever seen! Moved me to tears! The passion in which he sang and the strings...by far my favorite performance of this song! (best from the entire crew really!)
Thank you for being honest with us. I just saw you at Merriweather Post Pavilion, outside of Baltimore and DC. My husband drove through hell to get me there, just because he knew I needed to hear you play Sympathy live❤
Wow, the accordion really takes Sympathy to another level. The song is underrated in general cuz most people seemed to forget about the Dolls at the time, but I’d go on a limb and say it was Gutterflower’s version of Name
The simple beauty in the song sympathy really is amazing. Its a realization that we all strive for in our lives and the beauty is everyday is a new day to achieve that whole hearted love.
You probably dont care but if you're bored like me atm then you can stream all of the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Have been watching with my brother during the lockdown xD
Stranger than your sympathy And this is my apology I'm killing myself from the inside out And all my fears have pushed you out And I wished for things that I don't need (all I wanted) And what I chase won't set me free (it's all I wanted) And I get scared but I'm not crawlin' on my knees Oh, yeah Everything's all wrong, yeah Everything's all wrong, yeah Where the hell did I think I was? And stranger than your sympathy I take these things, so I don't feel I'm killing myself from the inside out And now my head's been filled with doubt It's hard to lead the life you choose (all I wanted) And all your luck's run out on you (all I wanted) And you can't see when all your dreams are coming true Oh, yeah It's easy to forget, yeah When you choke on the regrets, yeah Who the hell did I think I was? And stranger than your sympathy And all these thoughts you stole from me And I'm not sure where I belong And nowhere's home and I'm all wrong And I was in love with things I tried to make believe I was And I wouldn't be the one to kneel before the dreams I wanted And all the talk and all the lies were all the empty things disguised as me Mmm, yeah Stranger than your sympathy Stranger than your sympathy Mmm hmmm mmm Thanks to Corey, Mellie, Kimela for correcting these lyrics.

Sympathy is easily one of the most underrated songs in recent history. I love how they get a standing ovation after they play it though.
Goo Goo Dolls are truly my favorite band ever. John’s voice is so comforting and beautiful. He’s also a beautiful man.
That black balloon performance is just priceless
Sympathy makes me cry ever time I listen to it. Johnny has the perfect voice and his lyrics are so beautiful. He is a genius♡
Thanks God for this band and their songs! It's a masterpiece.

Seriously amazing. 🌟🥰
8 years later I'm sitting in a hotel room crying
His voice always soothes me... love the Goo Goo Dolls.... forever and always
Black Balloon might be one of the most underrated songs ever. Just brilliant.
Truly. Deceivingly great... Gets me every time.
Sounds great with electric acoustic guitar and his awesome voice
they changed my life for the better amazing how some simple bands shake the worlds wide out...Thanks Goo Goo dolls

I think this is my favorite performance of Black Balloon ever. You can feel everything
I love his voice 💚💚💚
The idea of storytellers with artists and the music .. reminds me of mtv unplugged ❤
I’m here 2024 alive because of this
No one. I repeat NO ONE has better hair than John rzeznik
Love The Goo Goo Dolls Forever
He resembles both a doll and Judd Nelson... He is also supremely talented 👏🏻
How on earth does he resemble Judd Nelson?
@@spencercoe3804
Maybe that their first name starts with The SAME letter?!😀 Other than that, I See ZERO resemblance.
Johnnys voice and guitar sound awesome
Orchestra they sound great iove when bands do this
Vocal coach great singer
Best band ever
Johnny rzesnik is awesome he writes great music
Eu amo esses caras desde 1996👏🏻🤘🇧🇷
Now in 2024! Look at where we've been and got through!!!❤❤ Maybe John should scare himself some more. Lol❤❤ Love you!!
Great voice
John...... King of Courage ;-)
😍😍😍😍 Beautiful
Does anyone know how I can get a copy of the whole show?
I'm thinking about Johnny Rzeznik, I am a big fan! He's Awesomeness!
Love it!
Love
Is the entire storytellers event available? Even for sale or something? The other parts aren't playing.
The full show just got blocked but I know someone who has it and I’m trying to get a hold of it
Black ballon rules with the orchestra
I miss storytellers!!!!!!☹❤❤❤❤
Georgeous

They're blocked for copyright :/
Stranger than your sympathy
And this is my apology
I'm killing myself from the inside out
And all my fears have pushed you out
And I wished for things that I don't need
(all I wanted)
And what I chase won't set me free
(it's all I wanted)
And I get scared but I'm not crawlin' on my knees
Oh, yeah
Everything's all wrong, yeah
Everything's all wrong, yeah
Where the hell did I think I was?
And stranger than your sympathy
I take these things, so I don't feel
I'm killing myself from the inside out
And now my head's been filled with doubt
It's hard to lead the life you choose
(all I wanted)
And all your luck's run out on you
(all I wanted)
And you can't see when all your dreams are coming true
Oh, yeah
It's easy to forget, yeah
When you choke on the regrets, yeah
Who the hell did I think I was?
And stranger than your sympathy
And all these thoughts you stole from me
And I'm not sure where I belong
And nowhere's home and I'm all wrong
And I was in love with things I tried to make believe I was
And I wouldn't be the one to kneel before the dreams I wanted
And all the talk and all the lies were all the empty things disguised as me
Mmm, yeah
Stranger than your sympathy
Stranger than your sympathy
Mmm hmmm mmm
