The first time I heard this song was a few years ago on headphones and my entire body went into goosebumps during the chorus and background singing. I love the build up of the drums the entire time sounding like marching, all the lyrics are beautiful, how ethereal the guitars sound. There are times I have listened to it literally fifty times in a row. I hadn't heard it in over a year this time and man... shivers. I've been a fan since '97. I Want You inspired me to try the bass guitar. Deep Inside of You I can no longer listen to because of the pain I was going thru then, Bonfire reminds me of when I decided to take six years off from dating to heal myself and this song taught me that I'm still alive. This band has never left my heart and they never will!
Same here, when I was young they always just had a song that fit so many moods. And they still do, and I love it ☺ I'm 31 & very glad they have withstood the tests of time over the years to create the beautiful music they always have ☺
This is my favorite song on this album. Their stuff has gotten me through so much! I loved seeing them in Texas in August. Will always be my favorite band! ❤️
Even on their albums that are relative duds, there are still pristine, hidden gems. This track ranks right up there in the top ten for me…and that’s saying something.
Libra to Libra, I've been listening to teb since I was like 9 years old and never stopped. It's the only CD in my vehicle ever, no matter what! It was literally the only thing I wanted out of my old car when I sold it. TEB has been there since the beginning and never disappointed. Every song is such a part of every period of my life. It's like the perfect lyrical autobiography of every big thing and all the little things. But I have to know, what are they saying in the background??? Haha, < in the background > but yeah it sounds like "help me forget"? which as usual would be exactly synchronous to my life atm.
I have listened to this song roughly 50 times in the last 2 days. It rocks my face off. Please never stop; I take for granted that my favorite band since 1999 is still making music. I love you guys.
@@aprilpavis-shroeder6841 Maybe so but I am talking about rock and roll or alt-rock genres as they were in the mid-80's to mid 2000's - as 3EB started. I am a musician and guitar player and I still love 3EB but this is not that kind or rock that made them stand out and successful. It has a completely different feel and vibe. You can like whatever you like. No worries but this is not rock and roll. This has become something else that has some other style. I don't know what to call it but I do not like it near as much and I think most 3EB fans for the last 20 years would agree that this is something different. Where are the rocking guitars with some distortion? Listen to their first 3-4 albums.
@@joaobrasil3689 rock n roll is dead... This is progressive and it's progressive in regards to the entire catalog like the above comment points out. The collective is def Rock n Roll but it's not for everybody...just like this isn't for everybody. This is more Xeb than what I take for current 3eb personally. I loved the Dopamine album but some of the stuff since hasnt struck with me the way the others did. I understand cop vs phone girl but I also thought it was too easy for 3eb...low hanging fruit. This however...I love the blue lighting because this reminds me of Blue. Either way I'm also glad they continue to make music and they've been in my top 5 since the self titled in '97 so I fully understand the long term love affair. And like this, the songs that mean the most to me aren't meant for the radio.
@@pelicanphuucker4life fair enough. I agree that new music is not rock n roll - sadly I'll say. I did like a few dopamine songs too but the last couple years especially I can't even listen to it. I'll always be fan and I respect Stephen Jenkins a ton. I've met him a few times in the neighborhood we live in here in SF and he has been quite funny. Anyway, in my dreams I would have him back collaborating with Kevin - just to see if they could get back to that style. Cheers
Damn his voice still sounds so good I feel like it is the voice of the 90's come back to give us that warm embrace in the cold world of today. Glad to hear it and feel young again.
Just an ossuary, a box of bones: who else but Stephen Jenkins could integrate this image and all of its associations into a song about breaking and broken hearts. The dude is a poet. Love Third Eye Blind. Can't wait to party with the boys at a live show. Done with Covid.
This bands been so special to me the early albums making extremely heartfelt music that touched on pretty touchy subjects, meth use , alcoholism all while writing some very catchy songs from a sort of meloncholic existential state of mind. I’m so glad they are still at it and several times a year I go through the catalogue. Thanks TEB for giving me music to go along with this rollercoaster life I’ve had
These songs hit me in such a way. I don’t even know what it is about it. It brings me to a safe space in San Francisco on a cold night. “So one time, I’ll find you. Warm in the rain right next to me”.
Avid follower. I never thought Stephan would excell Motorcycle Drive By. It's HIM. The purest and best. Anything. Slow Motion. Blinded. Profound lyrics and its just him. He's literally just Talking. Tom Petty Free Falling. AMAZING.
The following lyric hits so hard as I am 7K miles away from the one I love, with no possible way to see him. 'One time, I'll find you, warm in the rain right next to me' . ♥️
Love this song. I remember being in the elevator at work. Took the service elevator to avoid the posh crowd of the location. Was blasting this. Not quite the servant's stairs, but in the moment I felt it. The road less traveled, my friend... #ourbandeapart #thirdeyeblind
Another masterpiece from 3eb. I'm at work in my office, listening to this song. WEEPING 😭😖😪 Stephen, goddammit, YOU DID IT TO ME, AGAIN!!!! GOD BLESS 3eb. The Windy City needs you!!! 🙏✌💜
First word....took me back 15 years of my life as if it went by in a flash. The uniqueness of his voice was like home sweet home all over again, man I missed this band. Got me through many rough times in my life with the I don't care attitude, but sensitive and understanding as well.
This song has been on repeat and whenever there is new third eye blind I wonder how long it will take to grow and this one just hit deep from the first listen. My son of 1 has been dancing to this song on repeat. Starting him as a third eye blind fan young ❤
First concert I ever went to when I was 14 for the self title! Just starting learning other people’s songs on guitar and learned water landing this week! Keep making music!
@@hootiehome haha that’s so cool! I actually watched your video to get some ideas on playing other parts! Maybe some point I’ll start recording myself and post stuff online haha way to do it brother! Loved the approach you took with timing and muting the singing rap part
Commenting to hopefully win the contest lol. Seriously this is one of my absolute favorite songs on the album. Singing at the top of my lungs when I’m alone in the car….it’s wonderfully cathartic and beautiful.
It is like having that special brother or friend suddenly walk through the door and back into your life. I honestly thought I would never hear new 3EB music. Maybe this will even mean that the chances I missed to see them live can be made up for finally. I discovered 3EB through the movie Can't Hardly Wait, and the track waa one of their more radio/media friendly, but that pop track was the gateway for me to discover everything else they had to offer, and 3EB became one of the most consistent soundtracks for my life (if not the number one). I have never EVER tired of 3EB since those early teen years in the mid 90s! Thanks for being something special!
I just watched them a couple months ago... been an absolute die hard fan since I was about 9. It was an out of body experience for me. Nothing compares to what I felt standing there in the crowd hearing his voice sing the songs of my heart
Box of bones. I'm an artist, and it resonates so personally with me. Every single relationship I've been in minus the current one has been someone manipulating me into thinking I can't do better so that they can own me. They gaslight me until I believe them. They isolate me. They stop me from creating art so I don't get any praise. This song represents all of the feelings they've created that I've endured. The growth I've made to recognize and call them out for it. The absolute severe abuse and neglect I've faced my entire life. The need for my mothers approval she never gave. The absolute vulnerability I had after my dad committed suicide and i found him, and how it was abused and taken advantage of former lovers.
You guys were in thunder bay recently. You went to the Waterhouse. Everyone in town told me you were there, because they knew how you shaped my life. A man who had been an abuser for 8 years, I gave him another chance. I felt like he was my soul mate. I felt like it was meant to be. He wouldn't let me come there to you guys. I always thought he was the "find you warm in the rain right next to me".. I didn't know myself. Everything lost its tie to meaning. I felt so strong knowingly standing up myself, I felt so secretly weak losing the one solid thing I had growing up, no matter how abusive it was. I felt so brittle taking my stand against his STILL abusive behaviors.
@@consultorapimpinha3979 That was just my opinion, but I now get why the song seems to just cut off, you hear SJ whisper/mumble Box of Bones like the sound of life wavering away.
Man I just found this song. I have a story from last Thursday that this song came on radio by chance ? I was headed to sheriffs department with a box of old bones pelvis or hip what Beleive to be a possible Native American remains or missing person I found exploring and fishing a creek locally. I find a lot of extinct mega fauna such as bison and extinct horse teeth and bones and had a paleontologist look at em and sure enough had a human hip. No way this is by chance this song came on headed to sheriff. Hope native remains or whoever had this song played on my radio rests in peace. God bless.

This band has always held a special place in my heart as cheese as that sounds. I Will always be a fan.
But? Like if we weren't super 'Band'ee about it.

Saaaaammmee.
It doesn’t sound cheesy they are an AMAZING band always
This is my favorite song on this album. Their stuff has gotten me through so much! I loved seeing them in Texas in August. Will always be my favorite band! ❤️
"I know what I believe in, but I don't think I know myself." Damn. EVERY. TIME.
I miss 1996 and 1999 all songs from that two album are personal for me its like journey from my youth...
Even on their albums that are relative duds, there are still pristine, hidden gems. This track ranks right up there in the top ten for me…and that’s saying something.
Agree 👍👊

And still sounds just as bad live as it did in 97…nothing changes 🙃
@@TheStereoField 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@TheStereoField both of these comments are so true
Stephan Jenkins drags me in EVERRRRRYTIME with his voice and hooks! Perfect.
Nice to see that 3EB still exists.
Noone mixes poetry and sounds as beautifully as Stephan- and paints them on a bleak canvas of lost love...
This could be on Ursa Major, It's beautiful.
More set lists should take up Ursa and deep cuts from Blue
Same progression as water landing
@@dibanez_1350 I'd kill to hear Monotov's Private Opera or Dao of St. Paul!!

This voice will always make me remember my teenage years/high school, as corny as that sounds. Immense happiness. Thank you TEB, Jenkins...

Stephan Jenkins is a lyrical genius 👏🤙
What was so genius about this
Was, not "is".
facts
This band is the definition of consistent.
These songs hit me in such a way. I don’t even know what it is about it. It brings me to a safe space in San Francisco on a cold night. “So one time, I’ll find you. Warm in the rain right next to me”.
If you read this, you are NEXT TO ME...bathed in the glow of love, patience and kindness while listening to this music.
Everytime I listen to a 3eB song my nostalgia meter shatters. These guys are a part of my life. ❤️
❤️❤️🩹💔❤️🩹❤️
The four right chords can make me cry….and this song does it for me every single time.
My favorite band in high school. 97-01 the good ol’ days 😌
The greatest band in the world!!! Huge shout out from Brazil!!!
A fan since Summer of ‘97. Keep it going SJ and 3eb!
I wish Cadogan was still in the band.... Imagine what him and Jenkins could have done. Untitled and Blue remain such amazing albums...
Yeah but Kryz os a badass too 🙂👌👍
Out of the Vein tho
@@eyeconqueror1185 yep. Same. That album's coherence made it more amazing.
Your music is so needed in these crazy times!! Thank you for the awesome music & lyrics all these years. Mr Jenkins ❤😍
if you suck at relationships, this band is for you!
Avid follower. I never thought Stephan would excell Motorcycle Drive By. It's HIM. The purest and best. Anything. Slow Motion. Blinded. Profound lyrics and its just him. He's literally just Talking. Tom Petty Free Falling. AMAZING.
My personal fave off Our Bande Apart, so tough, so strong. Fierce!!! And I’m here for it always! 25 years in the Blind!
When this came out…it became one of my all time favorite 3eB songs…I kept playing it over and over
The following lyric hits so hard as I am 7K miles away from the one I love, with no possible way to see him. 'One time, I'll find you, warm in the rain right next to me' . ♥️
One of my favorites by this band. And their first self titled is my favorite album of all time.
nostalgia for the 90's
I grew up taking the servant's stairs. Go, Stephen.
every fucking album has changed me life
Love this song. I remember being in the elevator at work. Took the service elevator to avoid the posh crowd of the location. Was blasting this. Not quite the servant's stairs, but in the moment I felt it. The road less traveled, my friend... #ourbandeapart #thirdeyeblind
Love this video. “Box of bones” “ Silverlake Neophyte” and “time in Berlin” are my favs from the album ❤️
Cannot explain how freakin good this song is.
Another masterpiece from 3eb. I'm at work in my office, listening to this song. WEEPING 😭😖😪 Stephen, goddammit, YOU DID IT TO ME, AGAIN!!!! GOD BLESS 3eb. The Windy City needs you!!! 🙏✌💜

Still one of my favorites bands. Hoping they come back to Louisville soon!!
Such a legendary band ❤️❤️”3eb” the album might be my No.1 all time album
This is classic 3eb. Wow.
"I grew up taking the servants stairs" I can relate. Great track. Come back to Springfield, MO when you get a chance. I'd love to see this live
Favorite band of all time
I have been listening to all of your music since I was a little kid with my dad ! I am now 16 and it’s still my favorite music

So minimal, yet electrifying..
Some music fills your ears. This....this fills your soul.

Stephan still writing 🔥 lyrics...
Beautiful. I didn't expect much but I'm blown away. Usually older bands fall off and lose their creativity. This is is not like that at all.
This song is my favorite off of the new album! I couldn’t even count the times I have played it.
It’s like I’m 18 again!!
I still remember hearing “How’s It Going To Be” Semi-Charmed Life and Jumper on the radio in 1998 at 4 years old
It’ll never be that great again.
Semi-Charmed life is a masterpiece of music. Not one second is wasted!
I get the chills every time at “one time I find you warm in the rain next to me” 🌟💛🤩
Been listening since the 90s! Great music year after year!
Third Eye Blind is back to the roots. Great Job, more of them and again and again
This song reminds me of when my husband died in 2020. It’s so beautiful and haunting and raw. Brought me to tears hearing it live. ❤
How are they still so good? Jenkins is truly an enigma
This Song still hits the same as listening for the first time
I've played it at least 500 times..... It fills my soul somehow.... ❤️
Jenkins voice doesn’t age. 👍
Stephan just keeps doing it. Fucking legend.
25 years and still killing it
Undeniably in love with this band, after all this time, over and over. 💛
Why do I feel like this band embodies who I am better than I can
Dude, Jenkins when did we get old?..
This song means so so much to me, it may have saved my life. ❤
I want to use my ticket & see this beaut live!
One of those songs that the lyrics are amazing.
Never stop moving forward guys. Been here since day 1. Thanks for all the memories and the new ones to be made.
Thats the spirit :) congrats
Keep coming back to this song. It’s got a combination of the 3eB of old with a modern brush
Y’all didn’t miss a beat with this album ❤️
I just wish she never left!
The vibes are immaculate as always
Loved them. Great to hear them back.
Damn, TIB never lets me down
Sounds just like I’m in the late 90s/early 00s. Love it love it love it
I really like when 3eb adds in background choral voices, reminds me of Dao of St Paul and Monotov’s Private Opera
Best song on the album, I was so happy to get it on vinyl on release day!!!❤❤❤
He looked so cute when he started dancing 💗
By far my favorite song from this album 🔥
God this song is sooooo damn goood!!!!!!!!!!!
I am overjoyed that they still rock after all these years. 🖤🖤🖤
Is it “servant stairs” or “servant stares”?
SJ “it’s whatever you want it to mean.” 😆
I read it as "servant stairs" the first time, then "servant stares" when he sings it the second time. So much meaning, however you read/hear it.
The crescendo at the end symbolizes the birth/crashing of life before we become a box of bones.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing :)
@@consultorapimpinha3979 That was just my opinion, but I now get why the song seems to just cut off, you hear SJ whisper/mumble Box of Bones like the sound of life wavering away.
Man I just found this song. I have a story from last Thursday that this song came on radio by chance ?
I was headed to sheriffs department with a box of old bones pelvis or hip what Beleive to be a possible Native American remains or missing person I found exploring and fishing a creek locally. I find a lot of extinct mega fauna such as bison and extinct horse teeth and bones and had a paleontologist look at em and sure enough had a human hip.
No way this is by chance this song came on headed to sheriff. Hope native remains or whoever had this song played on my radio rests in peace.
God bless.
Brad still perfectly on point with the drums
I’ve only just discovered third eye blind but I am already obsessed ❤️
Amazing band that keeps taking me back!
This song is my jam.
My favorite video ❤️
Third Eye Blind will always have a special place in my heart.
