Thank you Jon for showing a human side of Aaron, a talent gone WAY too soon.
I am heavy hearted...If only he was able to get the help that he needed. He will be missed so much.
Edited to note: what I keep finding myself thinking of when it comes to Aaron is how it feels like I am grieving for his potential. He had so much talent if he could have only found himself and now he can no longer grow and continue to express that. I hate how we keep loosing these talented musicians and most importantly young people/kids to addiction and mental illness or senseless violence. We will never know what they could have been. So crazy and sad to me.
Thank you 🥹 Aaron was such a talented guy and we had a blast creating with each other. Music or music video, it was always about the art!
Yes John thank u thank u. Followed him since we were both nine yrs old.
I’m so glad u cared enuff to do this when no one else would. Thank u
This is the best comment I've read since his passing...thank you♥️
Don’t forget CHILDHOOD ABUSE. That’s where this stems from
Jon I apologize for misspelling ur name. It’s really pissing me off that so many people disparage such a kind talented human being….
We saw all this coming since he first came out in 1997. The way they worked him. The shit they had him on to continue it…
Just so sad.
Blame doesn’t rest with him in the end. The world including his own family wasn’t good to him and that NEEDS to be told ferociously.
this is how Aaron would want to be remembered. full of life, passion for his art, super talented. if only he could have held on to that life he was building for himself. it's a tragedy what his life became in the end. thank you for posting this Jon, Aaron was really proud of this album.
True.
Yes this was probably his favorite album he released. I remember how proud he was of this album❤. Rest easy Aaron C the greatest prince of pop to walk our earth❤❤❤
This is how Aaron deserves to be remembered. Passionate, talented, charismatic, and dedicated to his art. He lit up when on stage & in front of a camera. My heart hurts seeing what a tortured soul he was at the end and seeing what could have been.
What a difference in him. This is just so professional!! I'm not surprised really, but this makes my heart break as to what the drug's can do to someone. Aaron produced, directed, wrote the music, and song and sang it. He was capable of being a bigger success. Rest in peace, Aaron Carter. You are indeed more talented than your brother. You never had to be in competition with anyone. So sorry, mate.
Trauma and abuse perpetrated by his mother and father and his baby momma , Melanie, caused him to do drugs . Drugs aren't the issue Narcissists are
Definitely without a doubt,his own loved ones destroyed his life 😭😭❤
I’m mot going to lie! Nick seems selfish! Aarons voice was so much nicer
@@evaramirez2946 nick was jealous as Fuck of Aaron and deliberately sabotaged his career .
I would think that more talented that nick
He looked Great here , healthy , happy, it's like night & day from the last 3 years of his life, so sad, great song, great voice!!! No doubt he was a talented guy, played piano great, had a great voice!!! A shame hate he got, Great Song!!! RIP Aaron
Best comment. Exactly this. 💯
I noticed he went downhill after that split with that lina chick
Even here they were criticizing him and clowning on him! The public needs to take accountability for how cruel they were to him even when he was doing incredible!
He was not healthy, too skinny and pale, he was on drug but he was not so bad, very handsome, passionate, professional... His health getting worse after that.
Peak Aaron
Look at how kind & friendly he is to everyone he works with, artist respecting fellow artists 💖
He was always so kind and friendly. My heart hurts for him, people were so cruel.
Rest In Peace beautiful Aaron Carter. Your soul was like sunshine. ❤
Thank u so much for posting this, as a fan this is how I want to remember him. Just a passionate guy enjoying what are he was doing 💕 R.I.P Aaron We will never forget you 🕊️
Absolutely what a brilliant mind he had! That Love album is his magnum opus ! ❤
Fatima Peralta Yes 😢
Brilliant song and album ❤
@@tula1433 Luvvvv .
He actually could really write songs
I wish we could’ve kept this Aaron 💔
He looked so healthy in this video 😍 I wish he stayed that way. RIP Baby.
You traded my heart for some fools gold... Yes, the world is definitely like what he described in this song. Folks treat their loved ones like this everyday. God bless you Aaron 😇
Hmm 😭
He was so beautiful inside and out, I feel lucky that I got to spend a lot of time in his lives with him when there were sometimes less then a few hundred people... he talked a lot about his life and himself... it hurts to know he passed alone.. I have been having a really hard time struggling with his passing. When I found out it felt like a close friend passed. We are around the same age and I grew up watching him and listening to his music. He was my first crush growing up. I will miss seeing him live late at night when I was feeling lonely and he would always pull through for me. I really hope there is a public funeral so I can say my goodbyes.
Also I just want to say killer job producing this! I know Aaron helped but wow. It makes me so sad to say it but this next record could have been his comeback. He was hoping for that I think. I will miss him deeply.
I also grew up with Aaron since 1999. I still follow him on fb. So sad that he had a hard life and passed away in lonely 😔
Always miss you Aaron ❤️
My words exactly dear,he made everyone feel special and important 😭❤
I really loved watching him here. Such a different person, different energy, completely in the moment with more genuine interaction with people and just straight up probably who he really was until the addiction truly possessed over him
He went down hill with the stress of Melanie
He looked really good here.
@@michaelj8533 you think Melanie stressed him out more than he already was when he met her?
@@imjustagirl hey girl nice to see you here!
Yeah I agree he did look really good here. He was a different person in these clips. Wish he had remained sober.
@@VeenaMichelle likewise! Hope all is well, good to see your holding up well. I so wish he could have gotten back to this place. This is almost like looking at a whole other person. Just so night and day.
Aaron looks really good here and I LOVE this song. 🕊 🤍
He was so talented. It breaks my heart this album still doesn’t get the love it DESERVES❤🥹 Hopefully it will now
I really miss Aaron Carter. This was the best video and the best song I think I have ever heard in this type of music industry. He really outdid himself way farther than anyone I could ever imagine or think of. Here's the best looking best personality. I am so sad that he is gone. If he was here today I think that I would give him my 162 acre farm and allow him to have a place here in the country and the small quiet town of Cross Creek Florida. He would love it. I always wanted to meet him always always my entire life and I never got that chance. I am 42 years old. I'm almost the same age as brother Nick. I followed Aaron for many years. I couldn't have said this better. Aaron did a fantastic job. This was a masterpiece. What a way to do an ending. I wish she was here today. I would give him the world if I could and if he would let me
This song should have blown up, both the song & video are great.
He was a cool guy. Still listen to his album. 4 top songs. Fools gold is 1 of them. He was a kind soul in this BEASTLY world.
So much talent.
I really miss him 😭 I have been listening to Fool's Gold on repeat the past few days. It was definitely one of my many favorites. I feel like this is still a bad dream.
Me too. I cannot count how many times I hear this song in the past few days. It still hurts me now that Aaron was gone 😔❤️
@@minhphucdo8046 I'm so glad you love this song too! 🕊️🙏🏼 It's so depressing knowing he's not here anymore!
It’s been affecting me too . I’m so sad and feel like this man’s story was so incredible . You got to see his growth in music from a child to an adult . You can feel his passion for music . It didn’t have to end like this Aaron you weren’t going to feel how you were feeling forever . Such a permanent decision for a temporary emotion . R.I.P Aaron Carter
@@DaOneandOnly_ I'm so sorry you are hurting. It definitely sucks! Sending prayers your way!
I also been binge listening to Love album songs,truly extraordinary ❤❤ too bad this world didn't acknowledge his gifted talent and instead portrayed him in bad light 😭😭❤
Thank you for this. It made me smile and it was much needed at this time. 🥺
Rest In Peace Aaron. 🤟🏻🫶🏻❣️
Dude got hate but this whole record is great.. especially this single.
❤️❤️❤️
He got hate not because of talent, but because he wasn’t a good person. Fame or No fame,
@@suzannetaylor6285 the sad thing is he was a decent person at the beginning..I've Been a fan from the beginning as a kid. Drugs changed him to be a narcissist and just brag and lie all the time. So that's how some will remember him as a jerk which is unfortunate.
@@suzannetaylor6285 It amazes me that people can summarily judge Aaron Carter as "not a good person"---based on what? On the things he said and did when he was at the low points in his life? WHO would like to be judged the SAME way? How is this fair at all?
Granted, he didn't present a wonderful picture of himself while on live streams and on social media, but, tell me: if ANYONE were live-streamed almost 24/7 and tweeted constantly without a filter every single day, WHO would come out smelling like roses? (Hint: NO ONE--not you, not me.) Aaron was reacting to trolls, and being defensive. He wasn't "crazy" or "being a lunatic"-- he was trying to defend himself, for better or worse. He didn't try to hide or pretend or put on a nice facade. Other musicians have mighty PR teams that craft their image, and they don't live-stream their lives---if they all did, we would probably think Aaron was an angel compared to them. I mean, he was self-aware and transparent---too much so: that's what tormented him and came back to bite him, and also what turned some people away (what's that saying about "too much honesty"?).
He had to deal with a lot of trauma and tragedy, and became addicted to some substances to cope, but people say: "He is ultimately to blame: he did this to himself!". Really? Blaming the addict is too simplistic. Addiction is complex, and in the case of Aaron, many factors come into play, in addition to the strong biological pull of the addiction. Aaron definitely shares some of the blame, but definitely not ALL the blame. Dear God: People should be more understanding, and try to see his downfall as combination of various unhelpful or even harmful people and situations.
Having watched practically all the interviews he did over the years, and even the livestreams that people say "proves" he was a bad person, I actually have the *opposite* impression: I am struck by what a basically GOOD (though flawed) person he was. He was intelligent, talented, and extremely hardworking, always passionate about continually improving himself and learning new skills. He was traumatized by many people and past events, and struggled hard to pull himself up continually. He was intensely aware of his own shortcomings (he admitted to huffing compressed air and smoking weed, but he worked hard to stay away from all *other* substances), and he continually accepted rehab (up to 5 times) and people's attempts to help him, which is why I'm PUZZLED that people keep accusing him of "not listening to people who wanted to help him". No, no, no. That's not it. On social media and streams, he got angry and upset about people JUDGING him and BERATING him to "get help"---why? Because he already DID accept help, and DID go to rehab many times, and at the very end, he was having regular outpatient treatment---so, not residing in a rehab center, but accepting help as an outpatient (he reportedly missed his last appointment, probably because that was the day he passed away). So why do ignorant people keep saying that he "refused help", and "didn't want to listen and has only himself to blame"?
People say he is a "narcissist". Well, if that's the worst thing ANY celebrity could be accused of...they've done well indeed. What people don't understand is that he felt that he HAD TO self-promote-*who else* was going to promote him? The music industry had turned its back on him! He had to brag and self-promote and exaggerate his good qualities and achievements because he felt (correctly) that the mainstream media were deliberately ignoring or blacklisting him. I listened to all his bragging (and his own admission (in one interview) to being narcissistic--yes! He was aware of what he was doing!) and what I really heard was: "Hey! People are putting me down, but here's me fighting back! I'm going to tell you what I'm proud of, because I have self-respect!". So, I didn't react negatively to his bragging all. I saw him as someone who was a fighter, someone who wanted people to sit up and notice what he felt they were ignoring. Ultimately, many influential people continued to ignore him, including his own family members that he so wanted love and acceptance from. All that distressed him to the very end.
So, this tortured soul probably messed up on substances to drown out the pain (past and present trauma) and all the noise (generated by haters), but he was trying hard to fix things in his life---not giving up at all. He wasn't perfect---but who is?
I just mourn the loss of a beautiful and talented soul, who was endlessly tormented by horrible people and events (some were in the past, but some were very much in the present). He has now left behind a musical legacy that he really has reason to be proud of. His "Love" album and the unofficially released "Blacklisted" album provide abundant proof that he had the guts and talent to go at it independently. I appreciate the many hauntingly beautiful, catchy, and creative songs (lyrically and musically genius!) he's gifted to us. So contemporary, so "now", and so "Aaron"!
He was too good for this world, and he will be much missed.
This made me happy to see. I love this song and it was nice to see a sober Aaron loving life and showcasing his talents.
He was such a beautiful soul. You guys made an amazing Video here. I have viewed it countless times over the last few years 🥰
He had the most genuine smile ❤️
Am so sad about what happened to him😔 his so alive here... Love all his song.
Thank you for posting this 💗. Love this album. He was so talented. I’m so incredibly sad he’s gone and wish he had received the help he needed 💔. Rest easy Aaron Carter 🕊✝️🌻
This is the best I've seen Aaron look and sounds since that Candy joint. Long live.
The art of the cameraman is what truly captured the point Aaron was trying to convey in his lyrics. Totally priceless.
Nick should get bsb to do a cover of one of Aaron carters songs
Thanks for posting this! I loved Fool's Gold.
WoW.... First time hearing this. His Voice Is Gorgeous!!!!! I love this.
The more catching up that I'm doing with interviews and such is really breaking my heart that he didn't get the chance to continue his legacy!!!! Unfortunately, I feel there was foul play involved. So sad... 😢😢💔
There wasn’t. Police already determined this.
No foul play.
None. His housekeeper didn’t do it. Why do u feel there was foul play involved? U think this cuz she’s black?
Maybe blame that girl who on his last live stream was egging him on to OD and kill himself. Blame HER
@@JTScott1988 Idk why people suspect that when he clearly either drowned or died while high.
He killed this album. Miss him every single day. True real natural gifted talent. RIP! Thanks for posting this !
This is freaking good.
I’ll remember him like this.
i remember this and miss it so much. i distanced myself shortly after because i had to choose my mental health and couldn’t allow aaron to have the same access to me but i never stopped caring about him or wanting the best for him. i’m so, so sad. seeing content of the version of aaron that i knew but that left so long ago makes me so happy but is so painful when i remember that every version is now gone. thank you for sharing this ❤
Sooooo talented ❤
Oh! What an incredible talent my ultimate crush Aaron Carter. I'm so sad coz you're gone too early. I wish I could hug you to ease the pain in your heart.. But I only had to kiss you on your poster way back in 2003. Your so handsome and talented. I'm crying now. 😭😭😭
RIP MY DEAREST AARON CARTER.
YOU'LL BE MISSED AND LOVED BY MANY. ❤️🙏
Thank u Jon Asher for showing this video ..Im sure Aaron is smiling down from heaven remembering a great experience ..What a super wonderful man he truly was ❤
Thank you so much for posting this and showing who Aaron really was before mental health & addiction took over. This is how I will always remember. I've met him a few times and he was a beautiful soul and very talented 🤍 Love you always Aaron 💔🥺🙏🙏 RIP🕊🤍
This is the content Aaron should have been sharing. I honestly feel had he not been dropped by Sony, his mental state would have possibly been in a better place. Only because his L.O.V.E. album was a big success for him. That album was 🔥🔥...his best material imo. As soon as he was dropped, he no longer had the machine label behind him. He soon began to struggle in all aspects of his life (personal relationships, addiction, career, etc). Some ppl can't handle not being in a place of success that they were once in. This dude struggled with his identity big time. The face tats was the first alarming red flag. Him nodding out on his ig and high as a kite. All of this resulted in him falling into a BLACK hole that he was never able to find his way out of. An intervention was desperately needed were he SHOULD have even been admitted. I do feel that ppl around him failed him. Too many ENABLERS. At 34, he still needed a big brother/mentor for guidance. He felt the pressure of always needing to prove who he was along with his accomplishments since he was dropped from Sony. His L.O.V.E. is what should be considered his LAST album. Not that Blacklisted shit that was leaked. His passing is unfortunate.
Very sad loss thank you for sharing this means and says a lot great song..rest easy Aaron 🙏💙💙
SUCH TALENT WASTED! THIS ALBUM SHOULD'VE BEEN HIS COMEBACK ALBUM. LOVE YOU, AARON CARTER! REST IN PEACE 💔🙏😢🕊️🌠🌹👑
Este es el Aaron Carter con el que mi mente y mi memoria se quedan, siempre lo recordaré guapísimo, talentoso, fantástico y gran persona. Te ame, te amo y siempre te amaré hasta el final!!! Trasciende corazón 🙏🏻☺️😘

Thanks so much Jon for posting this video which we could see how sweet Aaron was ❤️
We all need to be more compassionate, giving, and loving to those fighting mental illness and addiction.
And that includes all social media,one on one connection and 🙏 prayers for those who feel unloved and without hope.
WE ❤LOVE YOU AARON.
This video captured the true essence of the Spirit/Soul in AARON.
Wow what a difference. Absolutely Amazing Video This Is How Aaron Would Want To Be Remembered ThankYou So Much For Sharing This Video!! RIP Aaron Carter 🙏 Hopefully You Are At Peace Now.
Can’t believe it’s been six years already since he made this, man time is flying by quick. LØVË was a huge success. Thanks Aaron 🕊
He really did have so much talent and potential. Addiction just destroyed all of it. Tragic. If only he had taken the path to a better life. 😢
One of my favorite songs ❤️❤️
