Blue October is the most criminally underrated band in the history of rock and roll.
Sounding AND lookin great!
💯 agree!
Ahmen
H E L L Y E S 🤘🏼
Amen
Justin is a hero to so many people! His willingness to bear his soul and share his weaknesses, failings, and desperation is oxygen to those suffocating in their own misery. Blue October is so much more than just a band! Blue October is a gift to all of us, and a reminder that we are not alone in this world, no matter how isolated we may feel at the moment. To those struggling with depression, addiction, or other emotional issues, Blue October is a lifeline. Thank you, Justin, for being the man that you are and being brave enough to strip yourself bare for the world to see. And thank you for showing how LOVE, like the love for your daughter, can indeed conquer all! God bless you and the whole Blue October family!
Beautifully written and heartfelt henry. Ty for sharing your comment
Justin is one of the best live performing vocalists to ever do it. An absolute treasure. Thank you Blue October.
For anybody that hasn’t recognized the beauty of Blue October….listen to this song and try not to feel, I dare you
Even during covid they did weekly CZcams sets playing music and talking about mental health❤ so much respect for this band ⭐️
Yo
This band has been amazing my whole adult life and not one bad time or good time did I have to face it alone because of their music.
A pure exercise in futility 💔
Fucking facts so tureeeee
I was hooked the very second i first heard hate me when it first came out...🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Same, my friend played it by accident...been hooked
Same!!!
HOLY EFF. I just get goosebumps ..... EVERY SINGLE TIME.
4:10 chills -- it feels like Justin screams for all of us - brings tears to my eye -- it's so healing to listen to -
I feel that in every song and scream. I love how you wrote that. ❤️
@@heathercherie4689 aww - thanks, yeah I hear you 🙂 -- you know as a visual artist I get really inspired by a simple moment like that - its so raw and honest -- the way he is fully present and alive and real --It inspires me to attempt to achieve that quality in my artwork - - it's hard to convey all of that in marks and paint though! Glad you liked what I wrote --🙏
One of the last songs i listened to with my dad was "hate me". I was 16. He didnt try to change it the way he did with all of my " noise". He listened. That was the last truck ride i had with him. He left me too soon. About 5 months later. I stopped listening to Blue October becaue the pain was too real. Until today. I decided to give it a shot.
Thank you for being here. I needed this today.
I'm so sorry , glad you listened again.
I am so very sorry
I didnt know i needed to hear this until i heard it today. My mother has been gone for over 4 and a half years and i thought it would get easier. It hasnt. I keep waiting but it just keeps hurting. This song really hits home with me. The lyrics are perfect for how i feel.
💔 I can relate (hugs)
I lost my mom 3 months ago ,and it's the most pain I've ever felt.
@michellekirby2456 I am so sorry to hear that. I know some of what you feel. If you ever need to talk, I am a good listener. Slowly but surely, you will begin to pick up the pieces again.
Amen my friend. Prayers, Faith, Hope & never give up! Your not alone🎉
When someone you love passes away your greif never really ends. You do come to a point that you just want to get pass it and move on with your life.There are days that you still just miss them so very much. And that I have found never goes away.v
My deceased fiance suffered long fight till he was 52 to cancer. One of only gifts he ever gave was tix to Blu Oct around 2009? at boston Orpheum and it was canceled due to Justin's challenges.I have never given up on him. He gives me extremely needed inspiration to keep going.. I've lost everyone within 4 yrs and he shows me to keep on fighting the good fight.❤
Aww I’m so sorry for your loss I will say a prayer 🙏 for you. I will pray 🙏 that u will find some peace and comfort. I will pray 🙏 he takes your pain away. Much love 💙 2 u.
I love Blue October as a live act more than any other, because I've never heard Justin NOT leave his soul out there on the stage.
He was great in concert. Saw him at the OC fairgrounds and, I loved every minute.
TY Blue October for sharing how SO MANY PEOPLE feel today...
😢 when you see someone bare part of their soul like that ,damn I have no words, just beauty and grace
Not only does he sing the words but his emotions are from the deepest part of his soul!!!
Dito,i feel really the Same❤️
Because this is what he had to do in his life, he was in a very very dark place for a long period of time with addiction problems
It's so good to find artists who take their pain to passion. It's not just about hearing poetic words. These artists take us by the hand, leading us down to the path to their own private hell. When you finally arrive they show wl 8pp poetic
it's a dark soul. 🕯
I feel Justin is very in touch with his feelings and his release is all in gus vocals ,and his voice always reels me in, I stop everything and listen so closely to his feelings.😢
My favorite Band of All Time! Justin and his raw feeling is what grabs you up and NEVER let's go... Pure and felt with his every Being! Priceless!!!!.... 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💜
My daddy just passed August 17,2023 at 5:12am and this songs perfectly describes how my heart feels right now. This is one of the hardest things I have to do 😢
❤
My dad's bday. He's been gone for almost years.
I'm so sorry!
This doesn't come just from a heart shattered... but a soul riped into...
It's just a song so they can make money, calm down.
@@treyduke22it's really not, Justin from blue October has been through more than most can imagine and has shared his story, he's a big reason I'm still here today
I adore you Justin.. You've been a huge part of mine and my kids life for 20 years.. Thank you. You sing my heart so beautifully. ❤
Justin is one amazingg person he says it like it is he tells a good story with everybody knows what he's talkin the way out into this and compassion depression and oppression and did things that I shouldn't have but Life goes on happy happy happy à
And he knows what he's talkin about havensville it and so as many more and still more we will know it all wrong time when she stop doing what we're doing and go on with it keep on st. John's listening to his song
It doesn't matter what he sings it's amazing and brings tears to my eyes. Amazing voice and man❤❤❤
Justin, do you know how special you are?❤
Justin and Jeremy Furstenfeld are simply amazing together. I feel every word deep down every time they perform.
Pssst! That's Ryan Delahoussaye.
Bet their Moms are proud!!❤️🙏🏼✌🏼
Okay nerd, it's just a song.
My fiance thinks her flaws, insecurities, emotions, and abuses from her past that were literally beat into her make her feel like there's something wrong with her. To me, she's absolutely perfect. Those little imperfections that she thinks are so bad are just things that make me realize that I'm not dreaming, and then she's actually the princess in my life. She's like a jigsaw puzzle and I'm literally picking up the pieces and letting her be herself again. I just want to say thank you to Blue October. Your songs and lyrics really ReSound with her and help her rebuild herself. I'm just here to pick up the pieces so that she could put them back in place I just want to be the glue that keeps them together. She's an amazing woman, and I truly feel more in love with her everyday. You guys truly save people's lives and you don't even know it. God bless you!
Keep loving & supporting your beautiful lady...you're both worthy of love
Your wife should start saying to herself that she has an awesome fiance "you"who is loving her just the way she is and that my man is a beautiful feeling to be loved genuinely and she is going to make it with you happily... God bless both of you and yes blue October in concert in Beaumont Jefferson theater was my all time favorite!! Rock on to them!
I'm hoping to take her to a Blue October concert if they come to the DFW area or even Austin. She is so super-intelligent she knows the words to every song ever made, it seems like. But she definitely absolutely knows every Blue October song lyric. It's like gospel music for her because she understands the pain in the lyrics. She's definitely made me a fan. Somehow I never even heard of Blue October song before she and I got together but now I really enjoy almost all of them. And to be fair, even bands that I love, there are some songs that just don't like so that's a big statement for me to say that I enjoy most of the songs from them. Even the best baseball players don't bat 1000. A lot of Justin's lyrics speak directly to me because I was in an abusive marriage for 21 years. I thought I knew what love was but until I got with Michelle, I wasn't even close. Having someone love you unconditionally is way different than someone saying they love you and then mentally physically and emotionally abusing you. I'm in a wheelchair and my ex-wife used to be extremely physically abusive towards. She would hit me in the head with things all time. She would ask me why I would don't just kill myself and offer to bring my pistol to me to take care of it. I didn't realize how depressed I was until realized what true happiness is with Michelle. All I want for the rest of my life is happiness for Michelle and I. Also, I would love to go see Blue October in person and surprise Michelle, if possible. 😉
And you will be taking her and both of you will have a BLAST!!!!!!❤MUCH LOVE TO BOTH OF YOU!!
One of several songs from Blue October that never fails to make me cry. Incredible song writing.
Justin, you make my life worth living , ✨️ 💕 through all your testimonials, you help me through my brothers overdose in 2011 in October, 31, I'd listen and I take it all in, everyday it's still a struggle, , 😢🎉
So sorry you went through this. ❤
Thank you for your message , appreciate your time and concern 😟
11/01/11 I lost my greatest love. I lost our daughter 5 months into my pregnancy on 10/01/11. I know your pain😢
I feel this song makes me think ,aren't we all tired of life and bullshit aye ...but I try to remember life is not happy sometimes..but it's what we got ..no crying ...we got one shot loves ...let's do it ! No matter how sad you are ..god gave us one life ..live it !
Been struggling with mental illness that causes psychotic episodes for 15 years now. It doesn't seem to ever get better despite therapy and medications. Lifetime of instability. When I'm in an ok place I'm still shaking internally. There's no real way to stop it. Reaching out I'm told I need to do better. It's exhausting. I'm glad this exists. ❤
The one song I’ve been waiting to hear live for years, they don’t play if they don’t have a piano
My goodness this song reaches deep down inside the core of the being. Brought tears to my eyes. The way he sings this, you can definitely tell he feels it to 😢❤
I’m so glad my friend gave me a ticket to see you last year. I’ve seen you and met you three times. You are a beautiful soul. Thank you
The rest of your life. People like us experience life at an unusually deep level. We feel energies rather than just looking at the outside. Loss is far more complex for us because of our uncanny ability to develop attachments that are often toxic. Yet at the same time we keep most people at a safe distance.
Love the new look very distinguished and age-appropriate. Love you Mr.JustinTime
Exactly how I feel about my own family 💔 My mother has been gone for several years. She clearly was the glue stick that held us together 😢 As your parents age there shouldn’t be strife everything should be oh so nice. It’s not that peaceful lullaby anymore…….As you close the hospital door…..
Everytime I hear I think about my dad 😢 you will always be missed E.P.P rest in peace
Don't be afraid. Better days are coming. You are not alone. The pieces are the past we sweep away & quietly grieve over.
I came out in June of this year. It’s been months and still terrible, ugly things are spilling out the closet door. Nothing is ever as you hope it will be.
I just know I’d be lost without this band.
Wow !! I'm with you.
We here my friend we all together with the stystem battle every single second.
I felt this in my soul
Lyrics:
I really need to talk with you
I keep stepping on the vein
That keeps my lifeline flowing through
I wanna be your perfect stick of glue
But I don't feel perfect at all
Sad and insecure flaw
I find it hard to hold conversations
I get sweaty sick and I wanna walk away
Its not you its strictly me in this situation
But, I'm wondering will it ever go away just go away, still
Sometimes I feel like weeping
Awake and when I'm sleeping
Perfecting how to put a game face on
This puzzle I've been keeping
Has been in hiding creeping out the closet door
Spilling out onto the floor
How long will I be picking up pieces?
How long will I be picking up my heart?
Listen, I'll be as honest as I feel
I feel like I'm getting more paranoid and I'm hearing things
And they never turn out real
It feels like my heart is made of pure steel
It's just so heavy all the time
I'm scared of death
And I'm scared of living
I gave up on the past cause it's unforgiving
I misplaced my trust
I watched my word begin to rust
I'm a balloon about to bust
I need a place for reliving.
Still
Sometimes I feel like weeping
Awake and when I'm sleeping
Perfecting how to put a game face on
This puzzle I've been keeping
Has been in hiding creeping out the closet door
Spilling out onto the floor
How long will I be picking up pieces?
How long will I be picking up my heart? [Repeat: x7]
How long (in another space and time)
Keep picking up pieces in the corner of my mind
How long (its getting oh so hard to find)
Keep picking up pieces in the corner of my mind
But I still walk on
I love all yalls songs!!!! I am so blessed to have watch your journey n let me tell you sobriety looks great on you n I'm proud for n of you. Be more blessed all of you!!!!
Our 5 yr old great grandson was killed (murdered) in a wreck where the driver shouldn't have been driving him n the mom should have not let it happen pray for us all especially my daughter, his Nanna n his mom n the driver too. 😢😮😢
I love yall n you Goooo Blue October 💙 😅😂😂
I always try to watch videos with lyrics, so Thank You!
Coal Makes Diamonds, how wonderful. A+
@ 4:10 Gives me chills
Before I pass...I want to see Justin Furstenfeld live.! My favorite song is 18th Floor Balcony and Picking Up Pieces
My eyes are sweating......I feel this.
Wow this is me going on past 11 yrs since my husband suddenly passed. Love it!
Powerful performance. Brilliant.
I love you Ryan 🥰💙
As a 46 year old person of two dysfuntiional parents I feel this in my bones. I survived but I am still picking up these pieces. Love your children. End this nadness.
Perfection is boring, and we never would have learned anything worth living for. ❤
Found you 20 years ago. Got me sober. Still sober. Seen you 7 times! Come back to Portland ❤
Those pieces for me....til I close my eyes forever ❤️🩹
My partner of 28 years passed 5 years ago !! This song is beautiful.
Sorry For your loss
This is beyond beautiful💙🌹💙
I've been listening to Blue October for over 15 years now, just brings me closer to Myself everytime I hear his voice! If you're going through something this is what you need to hear much love
3 years sober today 05/11/23❤️🎇🔥xx
❤ I asked God to help and it's amazing keep 🙏 much love ❤
Such a talent. I listen to them almost daily.Stay strong my brother.
My sweet child loved Blue October and Justin. She went to every concert when they came to the UK. I know that their music meant everything to her - that she related to all the lyrics. She left us in December after a lifelong battle with suicidal ideation. Blue October kept her alive for so many years. Thank you Justen and Blue October for relating to her soul and keeping her alive for so long
I was so freaking happy to see yall on Oct 10th!!! And got to hug Justin. Best night of my life!!
My Mom passed away two years ago and I found a hand written card she made me yesterday. It brought back the day she left and how I’d give everything for more time. 😢
I wish I could hug you because I need one too. Sending you all my loving healing energy and, light to surround you with warmth of love and hugs from me to you ♥️
There is only one word that fits.........RAW
One of the most distinctive piano riffs in history.
I feel like Justin is singing wot my heart keeps in. I write a lot, oh to be able to add music to it. I listen to ur songs every day. Love the blue family ❤
Oh my goodness,
What a soul!!!!!!❤️🎶
Justin Furstenfeld Your Soul Shaker ❤❤❤❤❤Incredible🖤🖤🖤😭😊
This song has gotten me through more than I can put into words. But God, he puts it into words and feelings better than I ever could. This man and his band and music are gifts to all of us.❤
Great lyricist and singer, and he's gorgeous too. I still hate "standing room only" concerts but I definitely don't regret seeing the band live in Vegas.
my god...that ending!
Now this is my Blue October!!! My soul felt this!!!
I just heard this incredible singer I heard him before love him❤❤ he makes me cry oh god!!!🖤🖤🖤✝️✝️
Beautiful song 💓feeling every emotion goosebumps wow beautiful🤗Thank you!!
Justin is so underrated this is beautiful
I'll be as honest as i feel. I'm paranoid because I'm hearing shit and it never turns out real. It feels my heart is made of pure steel.. it's just so heavy all the time.
dont pick up the pieces.. live each day like if its your last day! Forgive those who hurt you and pray for them cuz evil is near them. Dont listen to your thoughts. The voices in your head , ignore them. Its the devil trying to mess with you. Ear lavage helped me and also there might be pressure in your ears. I say all this with respect and because I understand.. Most important, God is waiting for you to Love him.
Damn Justin, that was beautiful! Blissful. Goosebumps everywhere! You’re music always finds me at important times
Your music is awesome im going threw all that with family and what ever friends i had who screwed me over in my the life i havent been delt the great cards on my life . Thank you for the beautiful music big fan
Justin has gotten me through parts of my life that even my faith in God probably couldn't have gotten me through. I love you Justin for what you have done for me in my life with your music. Blue October and Justin was put on this earth to help people
I truly love hearing him sing!
My soul wept while I listened. This is what broken sounds like. I love these guys. Such a beautiful and powerful song. Thank you Blue October
His music and sharing of his story has blessed my life in ways that are hard to express. His music empowers me to have a voice and therefore a deeper happier life.❤❤🎉🎉❤❤ 3:00 3:01 3:02
Could not have said it better ... Favorite song on that album. 100%
Absolutely every song from Blue October hits every situation in every area in life. I dont think there’s a more talented artist out there.
Totally Awesome.
Yep! He still has that skill to take what he is feeling and make you feel it whether you want to or not. Such an amazing voice, artist, performer, and writer. Thank you for getting me through my teenage years.
I deeply relate to this song on so many levels!! ❤❤❤❤
I'm thankful but sometimes wish their music didn't resonate with me as much as it does but I'm definitely thankful to hear how i feel beautifully sung in a voice that isn't the one in my head. Thank you 😌
4:09
.... Chills. That's all i can even say right now.
Gorgeous!!! I miss this aspect of his voice in newer albums. I am really loving Better Man though.
I love it. Inspired
Gorgeous song! Exactly my feelings 😢
Omg.. when he said blue family 💜❤️thank you Justin, you have no idea how much you’ve helped me
Lost my dad last year. This song hits home. I love it.
I just want to say from my ❤️ thank you! I'm not sure how I came to this song. Thank you for the much needed hand I was in need of, sincerely Lulu. ❤️🙏🌠
Wow. I deeply felt this. Thank you, sir.
Amazing and emotive.
Listened to you a long time and seems like you know me the way you write the songs hits home especially the song about your daughter I finally met mine after 15 years and I’m a grandad now your music has been therapy since day 1 ty ❤
Forever the storyteller. Never misses
I lost my better half in 2020 and since then I have tried but I just exist. One day fades into the next .
One of the greatest voices and song writers of our time.
❤ your voice is amazing
You capture the heart with every word and sound you sing. Thank you Justin. I adore you
