    I love this song. Love his voice. This song is me. My battle with drugs and alcohol has taken me on a wild destructive ride. Being sober is hard, but so worth it. The fact that I’m still alive is a miracle. I am thankful.

    I love how he lights up a cigarette on stage and talks to the crowd. He makes me feel like I'm sitting in his backyard after a barbeque and he just picks up a guitar and starts playing this song he wrote and wants to know if I like it or not. Are you kidding me or what? Just flat out awesome.

    I really don't understand his speech about "no one listened to this song." Everyone I knew listened and we loved it. He was in a huge influential band in the 90's and early 2000's. We all listened and loved his songs. If anybody wasn't listening before it was these country concert fans that he now panders to and regurgitates the same "emo" songs with a slide guitar and now they think he's great. Staind was amazing. I dont know what I'm seeing now except a business model pivoting.

    • @codysavoie2695

      @jareddavulture58 4 роки тому

      I think this is far far better than the generic sounding rock of that time. The dudes playing and singing his soul out. Very powerful and personal performances. But I guess say this is a marketing pivot.

They weren't very good but still I have a complete passion for music and so much respect for people who write their own music. The opening speech gave me so much hope for the future. Here's to hopin someday people will listen to me too. good on you Aaron.
