the voice that only age, pain, desperation, and wisdom can bring out.. the purity of his voice is as true and as raw as it gets. God bless you Aaron lewis
Ok Aaron, you taught me something with this one. What's so powerful about 3:25 isn't him belting out the note, its the silence it creates afterwards. He really doesn't get the respect he deserves, this guy is a genius.
Aaron Lewis, Cory Taylor, Chester, Scott Weiland, Layne Staley singers that have the voice that can make you feel every emotion out there voices that can never be replicated
A coworker brought this fella to my attention just recently. I like the way he describes the things we feel up here. North of the Massachusetts 413 and then some. I've now got some CDs to order. Thanks Too bad I hadn't been more aware of his style and talent sooner. Better later,than never though. 😇⚡😉⚡👿
The way she sways to the left, followed by a gradual right sway, to no definitive rhythm, all while holding her left arm still is pure talent! Brilliant! Her flip of the hair 3 quarter notes before the refrain was a poetic shift of unforeseen proportion by most I’m sure, yet still profound none the less.
this was the week before i left to boot camp as an 18 year old fuck up. I remember laying in bed listening to this CD and wondering if i would live to create something with my life. I'm 27 now, sitting in a home I own, listening to the same songs with the same profoundness 9 years later. this is real music. Thanks aaron lewis for being a fucking god among men and creating such prolific music.
This man puts more intimacy in the words of one song than most people fit into an entire lifetime. Whether I'm feeling down, good, or just in the mood to relax, Aaron puts a smile on my face.
Such a powerful song. I love when artists express the passion of where it all comes from. You can really see it in Aaron in this video, and even the girl who I can tell feels for this song. So many people can relate. Beautiful.
The reigning, defending, undisputed heavy weight champion with an acoustic guitar and his voice. No one comes close to the talent that this man has. Unbelievable song and performance.
real art, whether paintings, photos, or music is the stuff that makes us respond, feel. Aaron has always been one of those folks who captures, enhances my emotional response. from STAIND to now... this guy i just amazing. never miss a chance to go and listen to him play/sing. THANKS AARON your music always provides the soundtrack of my life.
I notice on his videos, there's always a few people hitting the thumbs down button....these people must be the kind that like Justin Bieber "music"??? I've never heard a singer express such pure and raw emotion in their voice like Aaron Lewis does. He doesn't just play and sing music....he IS music.
Level 3 workbench good old days are words and it's obvious what he meant so you shouldn't disrespect people you obviously like the old days music your here downing people the Bible says what you sow you shall reap and the disrespect is a bad seed
Omg, I haven't heard this song in such a long time. I was listening to Sirius Turbo & this song came on. Aaron Lewis used to speak from my soul, at least that's what I felt at the time. The way he wrote the lyrics to his songs was poetry. He was the voice of my 20's.
Not sure why he USED TO speak to your soul (at least I’m assuming that’s what you meant to say) maybe you’re just in an different place but to me as a nearly 36 year old man who is also a fully disabled combat veteran his music will ALWAYS speak to and for me
this is one of those songs that if you hear and your able to tune out the rest of the world will hold you to your spot long after it finishes . Aaron Lewis is incredible.
3:23 you can see just how heartfelt his singing is at this point. Damn he's really feeling it. Aaron Lewis is amazing, and so is Staind. I'm a bit sorry that older fans pressured the band to sound like their old stuff, i thought they were on the right path with this album.
not when he has live shows with an audience his singing is super lazy, like going an octave down but doesn't make it sound good, he doesn't try, he just walks about singing like he hates his career, this is one of the only live performances where he tried.
Aaron always has a way to sing about a person distinctively ... like, i bet alot of people can say I feel like hes singin about me... beautiful song, great musician... Aaron lewis thanks for all the great songs and many more anticipated songs to come... your songs and lyrics get me through my day and life ... music is always my escape...
Can never sing this song again with out breaking me and my dad would sing this song all the time his love for music taught me so much life it’s what gives me purpose now I miss you dad I love you until we sing again
God I am so very Proud of Aaron. He has conquered his Demons!!!!!! He Has Healed from the years of Self inflicted Torment !! this song brings tears of Joy to my Eyes..
Only really deep felt things and a life full of pain, hate, but also love can create such a song♥️Also like "please" very much they are just honestly sad and a little bit angry. I love that
Brooke Slavens sometimes its not up to you... I find myself still waiting up for my ex but i know that fucking call will never happen. Not by the way things ended.
Reminds me if my late husband 14 years of abuse I still love my late husband I always saw the best in him even though he was the cause of my heart ache
This song means so much to me. My wife and I are celebrating our 1 year anniversary being married today and 7 years together. In the very beginning she did some things that really broke my trust and to this day it kills me. I can't just seem to let it go, even after 7 years. And from time to time I find myself bringing it up. And when it's in my head, it's there to stay and I keep bringing it up and saying hurtful things to her until she's on the floor in a ball, bawling her eyes out. It's not that I want her to experience the hurt that I felt at her hands but I literally can't stop. I just get really pissed and hurt. But this song means so much to me cause she still stays with me. Even after everything I put her through mentally. And for that reason I will always love her and will always remain by her side. I love you Brittany Lynn Sprouse and always will. Happy Anniversary baby.
Aaron your doing the right thing when you walk off the stage when the fans are in the wrong remember if You don't stand for something You'll fall for anything
Aaron puts everything into his performances...but for some reason, I find this one of "Right Here" really touching...maybe it's his facial expression, full of sadness, anger, and everything else, or the slight touches he adds to the vocal part, or a mix of both, but this is amazing.
The very most amazing + greatest talent the world will ever know!! Not another human being compares to the raw fucking talent he has with his voice and a guitar!! Long live the king
I think they are def. Everyone in the music industry has respect and knows that Aaron is a true artist.Man needs nothing but his acoustic.Never heard 1 musician say that Aaron is not amazing.
I know I've been mistaken But just give me a break And see the changes that I?ve made I've got some imperfections But how can you collect them all And throw them in my face But you always find a way To keep me right here waiting You always find the words to say To keep me right here waiting If you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting Searching for the things to say To keep you right here waiting I hope you're not intending To be so condescending It's as much as I can take And you're so independent You just refuse to bend So I keep bending till I break But you always find a way To keep me right here waiting You always find the words to say To keep me right here waiting If you chose to walk away I'd still be right here waiting Searching for the things to say To keep you right here waiting I've made a commitment I'm willing to bleed for you I needed fulfillment I found what I need in you Can't you just forgive me I don't want to relive all the mistakes I've made along the way But I always find a way To keep you right here waiting I always find the words to say To keep you right here waiting But you always find a way To keep me right here waiting You always find the words to say To keep me right here waiting If I chose to walk away Would you be right here waiting Searching for the things to say To keep me right here waiting
that's so true...that's why Aaron Lewis is so amazing. the heart, pain and hate in his heart he releases into his music. On of the most beautiful sounds in all of music is Aaron Lewis's lyrics.
the voice that only age, pain, desperation, and wisdom can bring out.. the purity of his voice is as true and as raw as it gets. God bless you Aaron lewis
You bet! Nicely written... was thinking the same thing and you wrote it. :)
Amen
Idk about age. But pain n desperation maybe wisdom i say yes, but age idk he was pretty young there.
I know I suffer from depression I cry a lot and his music helps me get through the day my meds don’t help

He should just do an acoustic album of all his songs!!! I don't care if it cost $50 I would buy it because it would be worth it.

His voice is soothingly powerful

Well said
Springfield, Mass represent! Basketball hall of fame, Dr. Suess and Aaron Lewis, just a few of our treasures.
Aaron Louis such a really great talented singer I hope to see him and the rest of Staind Winnipeg someday only time will tail
He sings with his heart I bet his wife and children love it. Beautiful Job🥀
Well considering this interview was so long ago(2000s) that he probably wasn't married , not to mention HE'S DOING HIS JOB, DUMBASS...
Somewhat ironically, Aaron married in the late 90s.
Love this.....how do u even let go of someone that makes u feel like this??
I don't think you do .sure time takes away some of the sting , but part of them always stays in your heart.
you dont.. trust me...

When I clicked the vid and saw him singing and her moving her body. I decided to go through comments section.
Saw him in ' 21 at Harrah's in Laughlin... incredible acoustic show. Sounds as great, if not better! ❤

If you listen close enough, about half way through, you can hear a squishing sound as she rocks back and forth.

And you're so independent
You just refuse to bend
So I keep bending till I break
But you always find a way
To keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say
To keep me right here waiting
If you chose to walk away
I'd still be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say
To keep you right here waiting
I've made a commitment
I'm willing to bleed for you
I needed fulfillment
I found what I need in you
Can't you just forgive me
I don't want to relive all the mistakes
I've made along the way
But I always find a way
To keep you right here waiting
I always find the words to say
To keep you right here waiting
But you always find a way
To keep me right here waiting
You always find the words to say
To keep me right here waiting
If I chose to walk away
Would you be right here waiting
Searching for the things to say
To keep me right here waiting
