    This song was written for Andy Wood who OD’d. He was in Mother Love Bone and great friends with Seattle’s grunge bands, including AIC, Pearl Jam andSoundgarden. The song, “ Say Hello To Heaven” by Temple of the Dog was also about Andy (Pearl Jam and Soundgarden member mix band), I know you’ll absolutely love that song and highly recommend it if you haven’t heard it yet.
    Candlebox had a rough road and got accused of trying to imitate other grunge bands from Seattle, which wasn’t true, toured til they almost collapsed, rushed album 2 and it was a flop. It’s a shame, I think they rocked hard and the singer has such an emotive voice.
    Peace gorgeous! 💜🎵💜

    The song is about Andy Wood. He and the lead singer (died of an overdose) were roommates at one point in the Seattle music scene. The song "Would?" by Alice In Chains is also about the same singer. The entire Temple of the Dog album was a tribute.
    "Cover Me" is another great song by Candlebox.

    Candlebox is a highly underrated band. They have some great albums that people need to check out. They're still together and rockin' just as hard as they ever did.
    'Far Behind' was written about Mother Love Bone singer, Andy Wood, who died of a heroin overdose in 1990. I know you've listened to Temple Of The Dog, which was also a tribute to Andy Wood. Three of those members in Dog would go on to form Pearl Jam. The point is, the music is all connected. That music being Grunge. Candlebox was part of that scene, having hailed from Seattle as well.
    Here are some other great songs from that first album that featured 'Far Behind' that you should listen to, Jay.
    'You,' 'Cover Me,' 'Mother's Dream,' and 'Change.'

    They were such an amazing, underrated band. I feel like in the 90's they had a great following, but then Nirvana and Pearl Jam, Janes addiction, etc, they almost seem to overshadow them. But those who loved Candlebox stayed . I used to listen to "You" over and over again. and later "Glowing Soul"..

    It was a year ago today that my sister went into the hospital and died four days later. This song, coming out of nowhere after over 20 years, brought back the pain and frustration of watching her life crumble, though not from drugs, and everyone in her life throwing her away, could not or did not see that she really needed them. All she had left was me, and all I could do was watch it happen and try to help her live with it, as I had no material means to help her. So, you can just imagine how many feelings I got out in the last few minutes listening to this. And on top of that, I love this song, simply forgot about it for a couple of decades.

  • @KP-zi6jx

    You nailed it, and no, not about a girl. It's a tragically beautiful song written about a friend the lead singer lost to an OD. Candlebox is still touring, and the lead singer still sounds great. You were clearly immersed in the emotion and intensity in his voice...not a request, but treat yourself to the live version of this on David Letterman...it's cut a verse or 2 short prob due to TV programming time, but the lead singers vocal is stunning...the intensity here multiplied. I don't make the rounds of my fav reaction channels regularly, I'll give them a break and let them reload then binge watch for a day of all new, lol, or I'll refer to a fav song of it hits the mood then binge watch reactions to it, so here we are, and your reactions are always a fav...you're a beautiful young lady, but a fav because of your inner beauty of your heart and soul...and when you are moved it's so wholesome and pure, and relatable. Always demand the best, and never settle for less. Take care

  • @gerardmorris5473
    @gerardmorris5473 3 роки тому +3

    “Far Behind,” now often taken at first listen as a lost love song, looked back on with regret, is actually about a dear friend of Martin’s, Andy Wood, singer of the co-Seattle band Malfunkshun and Mother Love Bone.
    Martin and Wood had been friends for many years, but when Wood began using heroin, their friendship took a turn for the worst. Martin would go on to neglect their friendship and say things he would regret and push Wood away. Which is where the chorus in “Far Behind” would get its context. Martin never initially told anyone the song was about Wood, and no one would know the difference, since he changed the lyrics, last minute during the recording session. And with only twelve hours to record in the studio, the new lyrics stood. You nailed the meaning!! Love your channel!!

  • @shannonpendleton7865

    It was deeply personal. The singer was friends with Andrew Wood, singer of Mother Love Bone. As Andy got deeper into heroin, the two went in different directions and the singer distanced himself from Andy, sometimes harshly. (Thus "didn't mean to treat you bad). Andy died of an overdose, and his death impacted so many in the Seattle scene, including Chris Cornell , who was Andy's roommate and was the singer in Soundgarden. When this song talks about friends watching Andy crumbling, it's referring to Chris and others who were partying with Andy and never intervened while Andy was spiraling toward his eventual death.
    Chris also wrote a song about Andy, called Say Hello to Heaven, and recorded it with members of Andy's band. They called themselves Temple of the Dog and released one album in honor of Andy. Eddie Vedder, another grunge singer, joined them on a song called Hunger strike, and Andy's former band mates went on to form the band Pearl Jam with Eddie while Chris continued with his band Soundgarden. Both bands were huge, and saw the kind of success that had been predicted for Mother Love Bone had Andy not died as they were just on the cusp of stardom.
    Candlebox were briefly successful and this song about Andy was one of their biggest songs. Andrew Wood touched so many in the tight-knit grunge scene and his legacy in music is partly that his death inspired those who loved him to create so much beautiful music from their grief.

    I saw Candlebox twice in the last 6 years at the Chicago Winery. They were both intimate, acoustic shows. Kevin Martin, the lead singer, said he wrote this about 1 of his best friends upon his death, Andrew Wood. I believe it was combination drugs and alcohol. It happened long ago but both times Kevin sang it like it just happened. Love Candlebox.. thanks for reacting to such a kick ass band and song. BTW, Kevin Martin gets more beautiful with each passing year.

    Candlebox was a Seattle rock band that emerged at the height of 'grunge' rock in 1993... this first album sold 4 million copies, but the band was soon tagged as a 'Nirvana-copycat band' ... They lasted only 2 more albums (2nd album 'Lucy' sold a half million copies) before they split around 2000.
    Candlebox reformed a while later and began recording new albums, but currently only Kevin Martin (vocals) is an original member... the original Candlebox was the most popular, w/ Peter Klett (guitar), Bardi Martin (bass) & Scott Mercado (drums)...

    it was inspired by two friends who overdosed on heroin and "represents the loss of love between friends and having to be left with the feeling of emptiness.

    I saw these guys open for Metalica in Portland, OR in 1993. It was supposed to be Alice In Chains which was the whole reason i went, to see AIC. BUT Layne Staley went into rehab and they had to cancel. They replaced them on the lineup with Candlebox. this album had only been out abiut 3 weeks. This was an outdoor show with about 75,000 in attandance, undoubtedly the biggest show they had EVER played. Candlebox stole the show. They made Metalica LOOK AND SOUND bad. I've since seen them 4 more times. If you EVER get a chance to see them, do it. You won't be disappointed.

    This song always felt like a song about depression/suicide to me. UNTIL I actually witnessed first hand a friend of mine getting caught up in the drug world. Of course I had my own issues, but me and him were always close. Because we never belonged there.
    He ended up ODing in a Subway bathroom. Alone.
    When he promised me he'd never use alone.
    Unfortunately, the people around us....were always shit.
    If he would've just called me, I would've been with him. But it was the one time he didn't call me. And I honestly feel its because he felt loyalty to a person in our group...who wasn't a friend to either of us.....and he convinced him to never call me for anything.
    THEN I was the ONLY one who was upset....STILL UPSET....3.5 years later.
    They never even cared for him. And him and I promised we would get clean. He was accepted back into school ffs! And these miserable people convinced him he didn't need it.
    Its nothing I ever spoke to anyone about. But Caleb will always be my inspiration, even though I was his. I was just getting clean when he OD'd, and he was younger. But he unfortunately loved everyone too much. As I still.have that same problem. But I have been/stayed clean ever since.

      I never even knew addiction until I was in my 30's.
      Sadly, he was still in his early 20's shen he passed. He had a scholarship, he had a plan. But our mutual friends we took care of.... Obviously steered him in the opposite direction. His family isolated him, until after he passed.
      It is still hard for me, I have never spoken to anyone about it to this day aside from a couple times I tried speaking to my mother about it.
      He was like a little brother to me. I still think of him every day. I was more of a sister to him than his sister was...but we can not blame those who don't know how to guide an addict, when they have never been an addict themselves. It was the one time I wished he would've called. (Any other time I called him first to check in...if he didn't call me... lol)
      But truthfully, I think he was ready to go. Between the pain our mutual friends (the only "friends" we had at the time" were causing, his family, on top of his internal pain..... He just wanted to leave.
      And maybe he didn't call me that day because he knew I was bettering myself. Doesn't mean I would've left his side, ever.
      I appreciate you and your understanding.
      There are many types of addicts...
      Some of us were there to keep others alive.
      To show others there were better ways to live & to be...
      On top of a hundred other types.

      @@stevepence229 It was hard. We had about a 10 year age gap between us. He was in his early 20's when he got introduced to addiction. I was in my early 30's. But we kept taking care of those around us. No matter how badly they treated us, or others.
      There are many types of addicts. And unfortunately the ones that hurt others/themselves/their families....are the only stories you ever hear.
      As I said... I was in my early 30s when I became addicted. I personally never ODd... Miraculously. But I must have administered narcan at LEAST 40 times, in the 2 years I used. And it was heartbreaking every time. 20 of those times was the same person...within a 6 month period. I had to keep removing myself from those types. Because I couldn't watch those I cared for....become dependent on me just being there to bring them back.
      Unfortunately, I think the only reason Caleb didn't call me that day was because he knew I was on the rd to recovery. I would've still monitored him...but at the same time....he never ODd before. So it was intentional that time....
      Which makes me wonder who hurt him so much that day
      ....where he wouldn't even call his best friend to be there....

    I own this album and loved it, thought it was great. But I saw the band live, opening for Rush, and was so shocked and underwhelmed by the guitar work that I found myself wondering if the album tracks used a session player or the producer (who played guitar for a while with Queensryche I think) instead of the guitarist I saw live. Sadly that one live set kinda killed my interest in the band. Sigh.
