Blue October is just therapeutic, I'm selfishly glad they're not mainstream, they are just for us, the blue family. It's like music for the struggling souls, the wounded, the silent fighters, survivors of darkness, the seekers of peace of mind.
This album made me realize who I was as a father. Made me stand up for myself. I felt confident felt ok to be the father i wanted to be. I'm. Still struggling to this day but I'm alive.
Bless you for your courage and relentlessly fighting for your child. I will do the same for my Amelia, brother. Be safe and know that we cannot lose to our enemy, for defeat is not an option when our children stand behind us. Pray for God to embolden your strength over the wicked offender, and to finalize good blessings into the blood of you and your kin forever. Make a covenant with the Lord, that you will refrain from sin and wickedness and that your family do refrain as well. By following this agreement, God will set your path. You may have to build it yourself, but in you he will set you free. Every step forward is a step closer to paradise, never forget. Even in the den of demons, in darkest sunsets and in the dead of midnight, the Lord walks beside us, and we inch ever closer to Heaven! Take courage sir and be the Father that God demands that you be!
you're not alone, i dont know if you believe in God or not but justin does talk about knowing God and that he knows that he is real. We all have pain that we carry and we always have to have this image that we are perfect... the hardest thing to do is to be honest with yourself and the is one of the hardest battles that we have to face but we dont have to do it alone. You are never alone. and you will always be loved.
crazy isn't it ...absolutely the only thing that gets me out of falling off and relapsing on heroin, my wife played them no stop throw a four day stent in the ICU and when I woke up all I could do was watch this man reliving the stories I heard over and over in his music videos while sedated seeing his face I know his life and my life are relatable and I'm thankful for it.
Is helping me get through the toughest time of my life. I remember feeling like this in 1976. Here I am again.... but Im stronger and more resilient than that 16 year old boy forced to grow up virtually overnight. All songs are relatable.... Especially FEAR.
Part of me wishes that they'd get so much more popular because goddamn they deserve it. But part of me hopes that they stay exactly how they are (popularity wise) so that they're music doesn't start sucking. It's not them, it's just what happens Thank you, Blue October, for making your music. It has been a huge part of getting to where I am.
This is what it looks like and sounds like when someone truly bares their naked soul with all it's flaws and impefections for all the world to see. So painful to watch, and yet so very beautiful. This is what a music video about painfully emotional personal experience should be like. Not some half naked chick twerking while "crying" and rolling around on the ground in "agony" like so many of the videos you see today.
+kim bit You are so right, Some of the music today is garbage, its like a disgrace to what a true music artist is; like Justin and the band. There music is true passion and from the heart, Justin is beautiful..Luv him.
I am a huge fan and proud to say my daughter who is 17 is also. 2014 we saw them together in Detroit and Miami...Amazing shows and front rows against stage at both. Justin even wished her a Happy 17th and handed her his bandana. Fans for life. He cares so much for his fans, that's easy to see. Beautiful man!
My 36 year old daughter, 10 year old granddaughter and I saw Blue October in Portland, Oregon. My granddaughter wanted to see them because she hadn't realized other people felt the way she did. They were coming near a month later, Portland is less than hour away. She got a high 5 as Justin walked by, &he signed the poster she made "I hope you're happy!" The album that had just come out, and talked with her a few moments.
Those that speak in negative anonymity here have not the courage to do what Justin has done. He has shared his struggles very publicly and it has helped myself and countless others. For you to criticize him for honestly revealing his struggles AND identity speaks volumes of your character.
Just adore this man his story his voice his songs his lyrics..are so deeply felt I enjoy ..mostly because ive experienced dark deep pain ..but also strength and light through it..I bliev in forgiveness...I bliev in love ...I am huge fan thank you...your music is healing ...
Something to think about.. Such pain. Laid out there for the world to see. Exposed. Vulnerable. Such raw emotion. Amazing. Simply amazing. This one dented me.
Very few songs in my life have grabbed me and moved me, and this is one of them. It is very rare for such raw and unabated emotion to be so vividly represented in a piece of music these days. I am in awe of how this man has done just that. I've always liked Blue October, but now I have a new found respect for them as ARTISTS and not rock stars. Unreal.
LYRICS I see the sun go down on the river I feel the wind blow, I would've stayed to gray I feel the air around you, it's kinda closing in Do you feel it fall or do you feel at all? I can. I see the world keep moving as I stumble They seem to move much faster than me And while I sit in my four cornered room, dividing hearts for our little girl While I can't be anything but who I am And I wish you'd stay Well that was the beginning of the two of us, the start of our show Stay stay stay No I would never have let go And I see the sun go up as your image And I feel the weight of your eyes as you stare I feel it all when you, when you first, when you kissed my lips You used to make me feel at home, you made me feel at home, you made me feel again Oh that's when you used to say will you stay and not let go That was just the two of us to think about, the stars of our show And you would say I wish you'd stay and I'd never go Oh I would never have let go! So take this heart of mine You've taken it a hundred thousand times But this time, this time I'm gonna take it with me I see the door close down behind you I watch your face turn from glow to straight gray I see the moon go up and it shines this glory on my face Who will know? Who will know? Who will know! How we would stay and we should stay and never go There's just three of us to think about now in our show, our show, our show And I think we'd stay, we'd just stay, and then we'd know That we should never let go oh oh Something to think about oh... in our heart of hearts Just look into those big brown eyes and you'd just fall apart Maybe we should stay, we should stay, at least she'd know That we should never have let go No, no, let go, go... oh I wish you'd have stayed I wish you'd have stayed...
This band has got me through so much in my life since I discovered them as a teen. Blue October will always be my favorite thier music has always felt so close to home and made me feel like I wasnt alone at some of my loneliest and darkest times in life I truly appreciate the music you guys make!!!
One of the things that I used to love about blue was it didn't matter how you are feeling or what kind of mind frame/mood you're in the always have a song for it that cheers you up and puts a smile on your face 🥰
This band's journey is absolutely amazing. When I listen to them, I don't want to ever drink again. I know I will but, when I hear them it makes it okay momentarily.
I like this music because it reminds me that people who deal with depression can make it. Random thought at work was to give up... Every is good .... Sometimes those are the weird times. Don't know what to do when there is no fire. Great music
A man I met in rehab a couple years ago introduced me to the song "Fear" by Blue October. That song has been my mantra and go to song when I needed uplifting.
This song is so moving, " the start of our show " the early beginnings of many relationships that grew into more than 2 and then failed. Lots of emotions here that make me reflect on my failed marriage and the subsequent negative impacts on my three children. If only she had just stayed, we could have completed our show and remained the stars!
No B.O. song has crushed me like this one. Not even "Whispers" Live (circa '98) or "The Scar", that I had on a tape. However, I never understood why until I just watched the video. In the beginning, he holds up a note that says, "It's not your fault." WHOA! That was a note to Blue (daughter). Beautiful! For almost 30 yrs. I bore the burden of my parents divorce! I could add so much more, but knowing Justin from my past & seeing his validation of that just brought healing & more respect for him!
What I wanted to say when I met you a few weeks ago, I feel that you are the epitome of a true musician and band. Your collections of music is relatable, raw and incomparable to any. Stay amongst many of your songs is heartfelt, it reaches my soul. I can feel your sorrow and I admire that so much about you. We have all had our trust, and hearts torn by someone we love, it’s reality. You have showed us your darkness, weakness and your transformation. It has been a pleasure to watch you grow into the best version of yourself. The fact that you allowed yourself to be vulnerable for the world to see is commendable. It takes a lot of strength and will to be so transparent, and we all love you for it. Ryan as I told him, he is the greatest addition to your band because it is unique and he is the best violin player! I love the entire unity of the band and each piece of the puzzle creates my favorite band. I wish more people knew your incredible talent, you should be winning awards. Lastly, I think you would make an amazing broad way show about your life, it would be a hit! You inspire us and we appreciate your blood sweat and tears throughout the years. Thank you for sharing your truth with us all! Yours truly, Camille😊
After hearing Justin talk about 1st writing this song while his daughter was visiting and woke up in her sleep and came in the studio while he started playing the piano as she fell back asleep now just makes me cry.Justin had to bring her back to her mom the next morning and I know how painful it is to have your kids constantly torn between parents. I love you Justin n Blue October!
Even after all these years of loving this band, this song always hits me differently. This song made me fall in love with blue october and the " just look into those big brown eyes" that part of the song always pulls on my heart. Thankyou for keeping me alive, keeping me sane and thankyou for helping me fall inlove with myself again ❤️❤️
God! this song! amazing! my heart literally cry's everytime I hear this song! I'm 28. I've been listening to blue October sense middle school! just amazing! was obsessed all through school and still even now!
I love these guys! This song makes me cry. Every. Single. Time. In a world where we are constantly bombarded by superficial garbage and everyone is trying to look their best, pretend to be their happiest, it's nice to find music with real heart.
Why do people feel the need to walk away from something so beautiful... this song expresses in every way how I feel about the person that I love... but he left... he just left and now I'm suffering. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with and this song makes me feel everything and fucks me up bad...
Perfection. This band is PERFECT. I've grown up to your voice and to this day I still can feel my heart flutter like when I was young. I look at my own feet and see myself little again. THANK YOU, for my past and future. I love you.
Quite possibly the most powerful, beautiful, painful, heart breaking, terrifying, incredible song I have ever heard. The song that pulled me thru my own valley of the shadow of death just in the knowing that someone else out there knew this depth of pain. Made me love this man and pray for him when I couldn't even pray for myself.....................and look at him today, what a change, what healing has come to him. How could anybody not believe in God watching his transformation.........................
I absolutely love blue October and think it would be great to hear the sing a David Bowie song as well. For me and my girl, their music is very therapeutic.
Justin.. your music helped me get through a very hard part of my life when my daughters mom left me 5 years ago. I never thought I’d pull through, but here I am trying to get better
Perspective is truly everything. When your world's closing in focus on what's smallest and can make sense of. As my love would say "pick a rock", "shrink the battlefield." God Bless you all.
I see the sun go down on the river I feel the wind blow, I would've stayed to gray I feel the air around you, it's kinda closing in Do you feel it fall or do you feel at all? I can. I see the world keep moving as I stumble They seem to move much faster than me And while I sit in my four cornered room, dividing hearts for our little girl While I can't be anything but who I am And I wish you'd stay Well that was the beginning of the two of us, the start of our show Stay stay stay No I would never have let go And I see the sun go up as your image And I feel the weight of your eyes as you stare I feel it all when you, when you first, when you kissed my lips You used to make me feel at home, you made me feel at home, you made me feel again Oh that's when you used to say will you stay and not let go That was just the two of us to think about, the stars of our show And you would say I wish you'd stay and I'd never go Oh I would never have let go! So take this heart of mine You've taken it a hundred thousand times But this time, this time I'm gonna take it with me I see the door close down behind you I watch your face turn from glow to straight gray I see the moon go up and it shines this glory on my face Who will know? Who will know? Who will know! How we would stay and we should stay and never go There's just three of us to think about now in our show, our show, our show And I think we'd stay, we'd just stay, and then we'd know That we should never let go oh oh Something to think about oh... in our heart of hearts Just look into those big brown eyes and you'd just fall apart Maybe we should stay, we should stay, at least she'd know That we should never have let go No, no, let go, go... oh I wish you'd have stayed I wish you'd have stayed...
These guy's ROCK no matter WHAT! bring everyday life into our lives! THATS AMAZING! I will never stop listening to their music! This is one of the BEST!
This song is very special to me. I listened to this while I was pregnant with my second child and right before my c-section.... Born September 29 2014 my son sadly passed away on November 11 2014... This song reminds me of him always :(.
God... The sheer emotion in Justins voice. I can't hold back the tears. Such a great song... Means more than I could ever describe... I love you all, every single one of you. I hope you all find your sunshine and your one true love. Just you being here and feeling the same emotions I feel from this video makes me feel like I know you all more than I could ever know anyone else. Take it from someone who fucked up one too many times, the last thing you want to remember is regret. So have fun....
That's a true man putting his heart out there for everyone to hear .. Yet dark and deep blue October never fails to disappoint in every song they wright and perform ... True artists and forever will be one of my top bands FOREVER ! Thank you guys keep blessing the world with your torched beautiful souls ❤️😀
Haven’t listen to these songs for a long time. I had to stop for a few years because of the breakup I went through. Just made the heartbreak even worse. Just listening to this right now, I got that lump in my throat. Really missed all of you’re music. Thank you 🙏🏼 Just started to follow you on instagram again. Was just too much at the time. God Bless.
He makes u think and feel... Like if ur not a person with depression or a lil head problems you can't fully understand where he comes from.. I feel all of it love hate rage.. Name it feel it
BEST BAND EVER LOVE YOU JUSTIN SO MUCH THANKS 🙏 FOR YOUR INSPIRATION 3 1/2 YEARS CLEAN NOW OFF HEROIN WHEN I MET YOU AT YOUR LAST SHOW IN MILWAUKEE YOU TOLD ME THAT YOU WERE PROUD OF ME YOU TOLD ME TO BE PROUD OF MYSELF THAT I MATTER AND THAT YOU LOVE ME THANKS 🙏 FOR THAT SO MUCH EVERYTIME I WANT TO USE I THINK ABOUT THAT
A member of my family hung himself, and this song is helping. I loves it when i first heard it months ago and used it to get over a 6 year relationship. This song heals.. Justin if your reading this thank you for saving me, i feel like your asking me to keep living when i hear this even though it isnt for me.
This man has been through so much, and you can see all of it in his eyes in this video. This song is just painfully beautiful. I love him and his music so much. I wish I could give him a hug so bad.
She left me. There was nothing I could have done to have changed it. I gave her all that I am and all I could be. She left me. This song represents where I stood as it happened. Thanks Blue October. Thanks for your honesty. Great song.
Justin has got to be one of the most passionate singers I've heard! From "Somebody" to "James" to "Hate Me" to "Dirt Room" & now "The Feel Again", Justin wears his heart on his sleeve and feels every syllable of every word.
My twin brother Zachery Taylor Lindley was hit on his longboard while delivering a note to his girlfriend on their 4 month (monthiversary?) on December 6th, 2011. He was in a coma for 9 months and then passed away on September 12th, 2012 at 8:04pm. No song describes the loss of someone so close to you as well as "Stay". God bless Blue October, if not for them and their beautiful music-- I don't even know if I'd still be here today.
Adam that really touched me brother. death is not a fun thing to experience and sorry for your lose. trust in God my friend and im sure you will see him again thank you for sharing your story
Posting this on my wife's Facebook page. She went into cardiac arrest 2 weeks ago. She was on life support for 10 days. We took her off, and she's breathing on her own, but we don't knownfor how much longer. This song has a new meaning for me now. I love you, Pam!
Love this band, love this music, love the lyrics and love the feelings that brings to me. When you comes home from a hard days work and you hear this music, your day is good. Even after 7 years this band is like glue it keeps on sticking on me. My love and respect for BLUE OCTOBER 💖
When I am experiencing some of the lowest moments in this life and I'm feeling self loathing I honestly find comfort and strength in the music of Blue October I can relate to the messages it's than a pleasant sound it's a message of strength and understanding But maybe it's just me
I recently saw Justin perform his Open Book concert. In all honesty, I have never had a concert experience that compares. I cried, too many times to count. I laughed much more than I could have imagined. I truly FELT the emotion of each song. ❤️💙
Wow, this took my breath away, I think I literally forgot to breathe throughout this whole masterpiece. @BlueOctober You are beyond incredible ❤ for my diamond 💎
I am newly divorced, my eight year old son splits time between us. She got married five days after the divorce was finalized. Thanks to blue October I am getting better. I am not alone.
Just got hip to this band through my girl! We are both in recovery and this band is so relative to our lives and has expressed many feelings and situations that words can't! As far as raw talent and musical brilliance, this band has it all! One of the few bands today that I truly appreciate!
There is something so powerful and magnetic about his lyrics. This song has a very special meaning to me. I fell in love with Blue October when I heard "Hate Me" for the first time ...Justin is incredible, the band is amazing and I look forward to whats next.
This is more than just a song. This is a life story that affects anyone who hears it. When I listened to this song for the first time, i experienced many emotions that have been kept hidden inside. Sadness, solitude, a longing to be with her. This song has opened another side of Blue October that I have not seen.
I think this is one of the best music video ever, and maybe they don't spent too much money on it... Is just amazing, how he can make me feel what he feels even though I'm not a man and I have no children... Here your biggest fan in Spain ;)
Blue October is just therapeutic, I'm selfishly glad they're not mainstream, they are just for us, the blue family. It's like music for the struggling souls, the wounded, the silent fighters, survivors of darkness, the seekers of peace of mind.
Well said
you hit right on the spot ... they have somehow described my life and I always find hope in their music... thank you for your comment
You know he tagged you on Instagram. He read your message. Great. 👍🏼
I wholeheartedly agree with you. I love Blue October ❤️
Definitely right there especially this song
This album made me realize who I was as a father. Made me stand up for myself. I felt confident felt ok to be the father i wanted to be. I'm. Still struggling to this day but I'm alive.
You and me both, brother. This world is a much better place for it too!
Bless you for your courage and relentlessly fighting for your child. I will do the same for my Amelia, brother. Be safe and know that we cannot lose to our enemy, for defeat is not an option when our children stand behind us. Pray for God to embolden your strength over the wicked offender, and to finalize good blessings into the blood of you and your kin forever. Make a covenant with the Lord, that you will refrain from sin and wickedness and that your family do refrain as well. By following this agreement, God will set your path. You may have to build it yourself, but in you he will set you free. Every step forward is a step closer to paradise, never forget. Even in the den of demons, in darkest sunsets and in the dead of midnight, the Lord walks beside us, and we inch ever closer to Heaven! Take courage sir and be the Father that God demands that you be!
Please stick around and keep holding on.
Keep being beautiful to yourself
💯💪🏼👑❤️
This song deserves 6 billion views. Thumbs up if you agree
Been a fan over 23 years can't believe it's been that long and still get chills when I hear Justin sing.
I love Blue October, especially when I'm in a manic downswing. It helps me get through it.
you're not alone, i dont know if you believe in God or not but justin does talk about knowing God and that he knows that he is real. We all have pain that we carry and we always have to have this image that we are perfect... the hardest thing to do is to be honest with yourself and the is one of the hardest battles that we have to face but we dont have to do it alone. You are never alone. and you will always be loved.
Lean on god, with him all things are possible.
I'm not gonna push God on ya. Simply put..."Same here." Their music has been a ginormous crutch for me with the ups and downs of Bipolar
crazy isn't it ...absolutely the only thing that gets me out of falling off and relapsing on heroin, my wife played them no stop throw a four day stent in the ICU and when I woke up all I could do was watch this man reliving the stories I heard over and over in his music videos while sedated seeing his face I know his life and my life are relatable and I'm thankful for it.
You aren't alone, it lifts us up.
It is so nice to read the comments and see how much this music has helped people. I love you all. ❤
They helped a friend of mine, who in turn shared them with me when life was being sad. I’m eternally grateful...
Is helping me get through the toughest time of my life. I remember feeling like this in 1976. Here I am again.... but Im stronger and more resilient than that 16 year old boy forced to grow up virtually overnight. All songs are relatable.... Especially FEAR.
Your a towel!

Same for me, still rings true with so much.
Part of me wishes that they'd get so much more popular because goddamn they deserve it. But part of me hopes that they stay exactly how they are (popularity wise) so that they're music doesn't start sucking. It's not them, it's just what happens
Thank you, Blue October, for making your music. It has been a huge part of getting to where I am.
I totally agree with you, people are missing out
That's 100% true. They make amazing music.
That, they do :)
Sarah Catherine Yes! So many likes for this comment :)
Sometime it's better this way because music can get to your head and that's what make them good,what's keeping your humility.
I don’t see this passion anymore 😢
🧡❣️He deserves an award for this song 🧡❣️ It's pure 100% gold❣️🧡
This is what it looks like and sounds like when someone truly bares their naked soul with all it's flaws and impefections for all the world to see. So painful to watch, and yet so very beautiful. This is what a music video about painfully emotional personal experience should be like. Not some half naked chick twerking while "crying" and rolling around on the ground in "agony" like so many of the videos you see today.
+kim bit agree completly..with every word. thank you. you said was i was going to for me.
+kim bit - so perfectly true.
+kim bit You are so right, Some of the music today is garbage, its like a disgrace to what a true music artist is; like Justin and the band. There music is true passion and from the heart, Justin is beautiful..Luv him.
Spot on ! Cant say it any better then you
💯Real
I am a huge fan and proud to say my daughter who is 17 is also. 2014 we saw them together in Detroit and Miami...Amazing shows and front rows against stage at both. Justin even wished her a Happy 17th and handed her his bandana. Fans for life. He cares so much for his fans, that's easy to see. Beautiful man!

I listen this song for the first time today, October 28, 2023
most underrated song in the history of music in my opinion
Agree
Those that speak in negative anonymity here have not the courage to do what Justin has done. He has shared his struggles very publicly and it has helped myself and countless others. For you to criticize him for honestly revealing his struggles AND identity speaks volumes of your character.
"Well that was the beginning of the two of us...the start of our show". Those lyrics resonate so strongly with me.
Just adore this man his story his voice his songs his lyrics..are so deeply felt I enjoy ..mostly because ive experienced dark deep pain ..but also strength and light through it..I bliev in forgiveness...I bliev in love ...I am huge fan thank you...your music is healing ...
+Stacy Bodah I feel the same! The power of his vocals and the expressions on his face are very moving to me!
This song will let me always think of this guy I meet on what's up his name is Arno from Newcastle very special to me. Miss him
You're a towel!
@staceybodah Well said Friend 🌹💖 much love #blueoctober4ever
I love their music! The lyrics & his words you can understand every one of them. I’ve been down due to cancer but hopefully I got the….I GOT THIS 🙏🏽♥️
Something to think about..
Such pain. Laid out there for the world to see.
Exposed. Vulnerable. Such raw emotion.
Amazing. Simply amazing. This one dented me.
The level of musicianship and the depth of emotion in this band is incredible.
Some people punch you in the face, this group with these lyrics just punched me right in the heart ! I love Blue October
Very few songs in my life have grabbed me and moved me, and this is one of them. It is very rare for such raw and unabated emotion to be so vividly represented in a piece of music these days. I am in awe of how this man has done just that. I've always liked Blue October, but now I have a new found respect for them as ARTISTS and not rock stars. Unreal.
I can not sing along with most of their songs without crying. Danm they hit me center core.
I felll ur pain , love ur pic too.
hes like honestly best music we ever XP
LYRICS
I see the sun go down on the river
I feel the wind blow, I would've stayed to gray
I feel the air around you, it's kinda closing in
Do you feel it fall or do you feel at all? I can.
I see the world keep moving as I stumble
They seem to move much faster than me
And while I sit in my four cornered room, dividing hearts for our little girl
While I can't be anything but who I am
And I wish you'd stay
Well that was the beginning of the two of us, the start of our show
Stay stay stay
No I would never have let go
And I see the sun go up as your image
And I feel the weight of your eyes as you stare
I feel it all when you, when you first, when you kissed my lips
You used to make me feel at home, you made me feel at home, you made me feel again
Oh that's when you used to say will you stay and not let go
That was just the two of us to think about, the stars of our show
And you would say I wish you'd stay and I'd never go
Oh I would never have let go!
So take this heart of mine
You've taken it a hundred thousand times
But this time, this time I'm gonna take it with me
I see the door close down behind you
I watch your face turn from glow to straight gray
I see the moon go up and it shines this glory on my face
Who will know? Who will know? Who will know!
How we would stay and we should stay and never go
There's just three of us to think about now in our show, our show, our show
And I think we'd stay, we'd just stay, and then we'd know
That we should never let go oh oh
Something to think about oh... in our heart of hearts
Just look into those big brown eyes and you'd just fall apart
Maybe we should stay, we should stay, at least she'd know
That we should never have let go
No, no, let go, go... oh
I wish you'd have stayed
I wish you'd have stayed...
This band has got me through so much in my life since I discovered them as a teen. Blue October will always be my favorite thier music has always felt so close to home and made me feel like I wasnt alone at some of my loneliest and darkest times in life I truly appreciate the music you guys make!!!
One of the things that I used to love about blue was it didn't matter how you are feeling or what kind of mind frame/mood you're in the always have a song for it that cheers you up and puts a smile on your face 🥰
this is me
I only just came across them and did I need it...
one of this most tragically beautiful songs I've ever heard
I wasted 10 years not having this song in my life I didn't realize I needed so much.
Blue October is one of those bands where I actually love EVERY so g they've made!
This band's journey is absolutely amazing. When I listen to them, I don't want to ever drink again. I know I will but, when I hear them it makes it okay momentarily.
stay strong
One of the things this wonderful band taught me, when I'm looking at someone don't be jaded because I don't know what might have happened
I like this music because it reminds me that people who deal with depression can make it.
Random thought at work was to give up...
Every is good ....
Sometimes those are the weird times. Don't know what to do when there is no fire. Great music
A man I met in rehab a couple years ago introduced me to the song "Fear" by Blue October. That song has been my mantra and go to song when I needed uplifting.
Could this be the most beautiful song I've ever heard? It's amazing how I can feel Justin's emotions through this video.
Justin speaks for the side of me that ill never let those I love see.
Yeah. . . Don't ever let anyone see. Hide it till you beat it.
How they manage to make me feel even the slightest emotion at the deepest darkest depths of my depression I will never know.
This song is so moving, " the start of our show " the early beginnings of many relationships that grew into more than 2 and then failed. Lots of emotions here that make me reflect on my failed marriage and the subsequent negative impacts on my three children. If only she had just stayed, we could have completed our show and remained the stars!
I can't describe how much I love this band. The way Justin expresses his feelings is just amazing.
No B.O. song has crushed me like this one. Not even "Whispers" Live (circa '98) or "The Scar", that I had on a tape. However, I never understood why until I just watched the video. In the beginning, he holds up a note that says, "It's not your fault." WHOA! That was a note to Blue (daughter). Beautiful! For almost 30 yrs. I bore the burden of my parents divorce! I could add so much more, but knowing Justin from my past & seeing his validation of that just brought healing & more respect for him!
What I wanted to say when I met you a few weeks ago, I feel that you are the epitome of a true musician and band. Your collections of music is relatable, raw and incomparable to any. Stay amongst many of your songs is heartfelt, it reaches my soul. I can feel your sorrow and I admire that so much about you. We have all had our trust, and hearts torn by someone we love, it’s reality. You have showed us your darkness, weakness and your transformation. It has been a pleasure to watch you grow into the best version of yourself. The fact that you allowed yourself to be vulnerable for the world to see is commendable. It takes a lot of strength and will to be so transparent, and we all love you for it. Ryan as I told him, he is the greatest addition to your band because it is unique and he is the best violin player! I love the entire unity of the band and each piece of the puzzle creates my favorite band. I wish more people knew your incredible talent, you should be winning awards. Lastly, I think you would make an amazing broad way show about your life, it would be a hit! You inspire us and we appreciate your blood sweat and tears throughout the years. Thank you for sharing your truth with us all! Yours truly, Camille😊

After hearing Justin talk about 1st writing this song while his daughter was visiting and woke up in her sleep and came in the studio while he started playing the piano as she fell back asleep now just makes me cry.Justin had to bring her back to her mom the next morning and I know how painful it is to have your kids constantly torn between parents. I love you Justin n Blue October!
i can honestly say this is one of the most moving songs i have heard....I LOVE IT
Absolutely,we are the blue family and we are the only ones who truly understand and appreciate them anyway
This band makes the best lyrics ever !!!
“ITS NOT ALL YOUR FAULT!”
You don’t know HOW MUCH.I needed to see those words today....
Even after all these years of loving this band, this song always hits me differently. This song made me fall in love with blue october and the " just look into those big brown eyes" that part of the song always pulls on my heart. Thankyou for keeping me alive, keeping me sane and thankyou for helping me fall inlove with myself again ❤️❤️
My all time fav band , my emotion
The deepest, realest shit ever.
Indeed
I played this song over and over in 2012. Now it speaks loudly to me.
So glad my dad introduced me to blue October.
God! this song! amazing! my heart literally cry's everytime I hear this song! I'm 28. I've been listening to blue October sense middle school! just amazing! was obsessed all through school and still even now!
Same here. Know it since over 10 years or maybe 15 years and still love the music. I’m 27.
"I hope your happy".😘
It's comforting to look into the eyes of someone who has experienced as much inner pain as you have. Amen?
I love these guys! This song makes me cry. Every. Single. Time. In a world where we are constantly bombarded by superficial garbage and everyone is trying to look their best, pretend to be their happiest, it's nice to find music with real heart.
Why do people feel the need to walk away from something so beautiful... this song expresses in every way how I feel about the person that I love... but he left... he just left and now I'm suffering. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with and this song makes me feel everything and fucks me up bad...

Through a friend I got introduced to Blue October.Fear was the first song I heard.Everytime I listen to that song it moves my soul.
Perfection. This band is PERFECT. I've grown up to your voice and to this day I still can feel my heart flutter like when I was young. I look at my own feet and see myself little again. THANK YOU, for my past and future. I love you.
One of the most powerful songs I've ever heard... has just left me speechless.
Quite possibly the most powerful, beautiful, painful, heart breaking, terrifying, incredible song I have ever heard. The song that pulled me thru my own valley of the shadow of death just in the knowing that someone else out there knew this depth of pain. Made me love this man and pray for him when I couldn't even pray for myself.....................and look at him today, what a change, what healing has come to him. How could anybody not believe in God watching his transformation.........................
Its not god.. its hardwork and dedication to being the best you can be... and learning to love yourself even just a little bit day by day.
I absolutely love blue October and think it would be great to hear the sing a David Bowie song as well. For me and my girl, their music is very therapeutic.
Justin.. your music helped me get through a very hard part of my life when my daughters mom left me 5 years ago. I never thought I’d pull through, but here I am trying to get better
Perspective is truly everything. When your world's closing in focus on what's smallest and can make sense of. As my love would say "pick a rock", "shrink the battlefield."
God Bless you all.
I love blue October... like seriously their songs impact you soo deep.. like you feel every emotion to every lyric of every verse...
My ex has big brown eyes. And when I would look into them, I would also fall apart. Thank you for this song
I see the sun go down on the river
I feel the wind blow, I would've stayed to gray
I feel the air around you, it's kinda closing in
Do you feel it fall or do you feel at all? I can.
I see the world keep moving as I stumble
They seem to move much faster than me
And while I sit in my four cornered room, dividing hearts for our little girl
While I can't be anything but who I am
And I wish you'd stay
Well that was the beginning of the two of us, the start of our show
Stay stay stay
No I would never have let go
And I see the sun go up as your image
And I feel the weight of your eyes as you stare
I feel it all when you, when you first, when you kissed my lips
You used to make me feel at home, you made me feel at home, you made me feel again
Oh that's when you used to say will you stay and not let go
That was just the two of us to think about, the stars of our show
And you would say I wish you'd stay and I'd never go
Oh I would never have let go!
So take this heart of mine
You've taken it a hundred thousand times
But this time, this time I'm gonna take it with me
I see the door close down behind you
I watch your face turn from glow to straight gray
I see the moon go up and it shines this glory on my face
Who will know? Who will know? Who will know!
How we would stay and we should stay and never go
There's just three of us to think about now in our show, our show, our show
And I think we'd stay, we'd just stay, and then we'd know
That we should never let go oh oh
Something to think about oh... in our heart of hearts
Just look into those big brown eyes and you'd just fall apart
Maybe we should stay, we should stay, at least she'd know
That we should never have let go
No, no, let go, go... oh
I wish you'd have stayed
I wish you'd have stayed...
Drop a year.. thanks for the lyrics
U can feel the emotion in his voice! Gives me chillz. I love how it soothes my soul... STAAAAAAYYY!!!!
These guy's ROCK no matter WHAT! bring everyday life into our lives! THATS AMAZING! I will never stop listening to their music! This is one of the BEST!
This song is very special to me. I listened to this while I was pregnant with my second child and right before my c-section.... Born September 29 2014 my son sadly passed away on November 11 2014... This song reminds me of him always :(.
Im so sorry for ur loss
thank you for saving me
God... The sheer emotion in Justins voice. I can't hold back the tears. Such a great song... Means more than I could ever describe...
I love you all, every single one of you. I hope you all find your sunshine and your one true love. Just you being here and feeling the same emotions I feel from this video makes me feel like I know you all more than I could ever know anyone else.
Take it from someone who fucked up one too many times, the last thing you want to remember is regret. So have fun....
That's a true man putting his heart out there for everyone to hear .. Yet dark and deep blue October never fails to disappoint in every song they wright and perform ... True artists and forever will be one of my top bands FOREVER ! Thank you guys keep blessing the world with your torched beautiful souls ❤️😀
Haven’t listen to these songs for a long time. I had to stop for a few years because of the breakup I went through.
Just made the heartbreak even worse. Just listening to this right now, I got that lump in my throat.
Really missed all of you’re music.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Just started to follow you on instagram again.
Was just too much at the time.
God Bless.
They are amazing LIVE!! It's more an experience than a concert!! 💓
This dude needs an acting career, too. His facial expressions just scream anger, confusion, pain, and remorse. Awesome video, awesome song.
AMAZING BAND CANT GET ENOUGH OF HIS MUSIC BRINGS TEARS TO MY FACE EVERYTIME....#BIGTONE

I hate that words will never portray the storm of emotions this makes me feel.
I owe this man my life.
❤
A member of my family hung himself, and this song is helping. I loves it when i first heard it months ago and used it to get over a 6 year relationship. This song heals.. Justin if your reading this thank you for saving me, i feel like your asking me to keep living when i hear this even though it isnt for me.
This man has been through so much, and you can see all of it in his eyes in this video. This song is just painfully beautiful. I love him and his music so much. I wish I could give him a hug so bad.
Their music just touch the soul so deeply..
I love the older Justin gets the deeper his music gets. What a beautiful man and soul.
justin's songs are so powerful
She left me. There was nothing I could have done to have changed it. I gave her all that I am and all I could be. She left me. This song represents where I stood as it happened. Thanks Blue October. Thanks for your honesty. Great song.
Justin has got to be one of the most passionate singers I've heard! From "Somebody" to "James" to "Hate Me" to "Dirt Room" & now "The Feel Again", Justin wears his heart on his sleeve and feels every syllable of every word.
My twin brother Zachery Taylor Lindley was hit on his longboard while delivering a note to his girlfriend on their 4 month (monthiversary?) on December 6th, 2011. He was in a coma for 9 months and then passed away on September 12th, 2012 at 8:04pm. No song describes the loss of someone so close to you as well as "Stay". God bless Blue October, if not for them and their beautiful music-- I don't even know if I'd still be here today.
Adam that really touched me brother. death is not a fun thing to experience and sorry for your lose. trust in God my friend and im sure you will see him again
thank you for sharing your story
Posting this on my wife's Facebook page. She went into cardiac arrest 2 weeks ago. She was on life support for 10 days. We took her off, and she's breathing on her own, but we don't knownfor how much longer. This song has a new meaning for me now. I love you, Pam!
Love this band, love this music, love the lyrics and love the feelings that brings to me. When you comes home from a hard days work and you hear this music, your day is good. Even after 7 years this band is like glue it keeps on sticking on me. My love and respect for BLUE OCTOBER 💖
I just want to say, thank you, Justin. Thank you, Blue October. You're beautiful. You make life beautiful.
When I am experiencing some of the lowest moments in this life and I'm feeling self loathing I honestly find comfort and strength in the music of Blue October I can relate to the messages it's than a pleasant sound it's a message of strength and understanding
But maybe it's just me
I recently saw Justin perform his Open Book concert. In all honesty, I have never had a concert experience that compares. I cried, too many times to count. I laughed much more than I could have imagined. I truly FELT the emotion of each song. ❤️💙
This song is so beautiful and emotional.... love it....
Amazed,grateful, and absolutely love this. I can feel it. In my soul. His facial expressions are speaking volumes.
Wow, this took my breath away, I think I literally forgot to breathe throughout this whole masterpiece. @BlueOctober You are beyond incredible ❤
for my diamond 💎
I totally agree💙 I absolutely adore Blue October!!!
I am newly divorced, my eight year old son splits time between us. She got married five days after the divorce was finalized. Thanks to blue October I am getting better. I am not alone.
Current mood end of day reflections. 💝🙏🏼🌈💙 goin deep.😢❤
Just got hip to this band through my girl! We are both in recovery and this band is so relative to our lives and has expressed many feelings and situations that words can't! As far as raw talent and musical brilliance, this band has it all! One of the few bands today that I truly appreciate!
This song is just... beautiful. Everything about it is absolutely amazing.
There is something so powerful and magnetic about his lyrics. This song has a very special meaning to me.
I fell in love with Blue October when I heard "Hate Me" for the first time ...Justin is incredible, the band is amazing and I look forward to whats next.
Believe me I was so ready to take my own life so I didn't have to suffer. Thank you Blue October
❤
you couldve combined the 2 posts
I hope you are still okay?
heart and soul in this song..... its had me in tears every time i have heard it....amazing song x
I've been to three Blue October concerts in Colorado and two in Texas where I'm from. They just get better and better! Love y'all.
take day by day
This is more than just a song. This is a life story that affects anyone who hears it. When I listened to this song for the first time, i experienced many emotions that have been kept hidden inside. Sadness, solitude, a longing to be with her. This song has opened another side of Blue October that I have not seen.
I think this is one of the best music video ever, and maybe they don't spent too much money on it... Is just amazing, how he can make me feel what he feels even though I'm not a man and I have no children... Here your biggest fan in Spain ;)
