  • Dodging Raindrops is a title I had been sitting on for years. Can you imagine how much energy it would take to dodge raindrops?! Besides being exhausting it would be impossible. But I think we all have certain things we avoid. They bother us more and more until we decide to step up and face it. The song is about summoning the courage to face life as it comes. - Nick Hexum

    This song has single handedly improved the quality of life for my 12 year old daughter. The lyrics have provided us with an opportunity for open discussion about mental health and dealing with anxiety, and my daughter uses them to remind her that she can utilize healthy coping skills and stop spiraling when she gets nervous. 🙏 Super grateful for this song.

    This is my most favorite new 311 song that therapeutically changed me for the better since i heard the song Beyond the Grey Sky after a tornado ripped through my city. Ive been struggling with alcohol lately and this song gave me the absolute strength to kick its ass. ❤

    So many songs on this album have moved me to tears. The past 3 years have been hell for me and I’d basically given up hope on ever being happy again. But this album, so much of it is like it was written just for me, it’s speaking to my pain and struggle, reminding me that I still have that light, that fight, and that positivity in me and I can make it. ❤️

    Perfect metaphor for the struggles I can find myself in as someone who faces social anxiety.
    If we want to do something in life, just have to buck up and face that mental block. Otherwise you exhaust yourself and waste time (sometimes years) trying to dodge the issue. The message really strikes home for me.

    • @bigbtaylor34
      @bigbtaylor34 Před 3 lety

      @@keithballenger5560 Hey there 311 brother! "311 has Grassroots for ya mama!" You can definitely tell that the band began emphasising messages of overcoming struggles in the "Sterolithic" & "Mosaic" albums. Damn good to hear artists--especially one as bad a$$ as 311--making the world see that EVERYBODY needs mental health to go along with their physical but that certain stigmas can prevent help being sought or offered. Part of being well-rounded means a healthy dose of 311-therapy, preferably injected directly into the ear drums! May God bless the positivity of 311

    BY FAR the best song on this album!!! Should have been the first one to be released. Ranks up there with Amber, Champagne, etc. Nothing against S.A.'s rapping skills, but the songs where Nick and S.A. kill it with the melodies like this one put the rest of their stuff to shame. They both have beautiful voices.

    Hell yes, a video to an amazing song! This song really hit me hard when the album dropped, but for some very odd reason, all the #9 tracks on every album since the beginning have always had a higher level of deeper meaning to me! Odd, yes!! Mainly: GrassRoots, Use Of Time, Eons, This Too Shall Pass (Omaha Sessions), Two Drops In The Ocean, Too Late and Dodging Raindrops, just to name a few, but if only Universal Pulse had 9 tracks though, I was raped of my NINER!! Lol! Joking aside though, some of these songs are purely amazing and can put your inner self on a whole new level! Use Of Time (Transistor), is from beginning to end a Masterpiece, as well as Two Drops (Uplifter)!! Hope you enjoy my theory of Nines! Namaste to all!!

    It's probably the weaker of 311's newer songs over the years, the chord progression is super predictable and all, it feels like a different band here. But all respect, I like the album so far. It's the only one I haven't heard by them yet. It just feels like Five Seconds Of Summer or some Hollywood producer wrote this, that's all.
