Man, this is really 15 years old! I remember walking the halls of my college bumping this. The amount of times Blue Scholars brought order to the chaos in my mind I can't even remember but definitely this track really did that for me. Time flies, here I am 34, married, 6 year old daughter...still rocking this.
Dude I was 17 when I heard this. Miss these days of just getting lost finding these artists / songs on the internet. 34 now, married, have a 6 year old….still rocking to this, now with my daughter. Time and life are weird but these songs bring everything into perspective.
Still hope we get to see a new blue scholars album. They hade something special, and this song sums up the feels there music gave us. Stay humble and kinde.
Still one of the best tracks Ryan ever wrote. And also still one of the only artists I've encountered where every single song in the catalog is an absolute masterpiece
Damn, it's been nearly 20 yrs since I first heard this song. Not quite 20, but close. I hadn't played it for some time. It STILL grips my heart and wets my eyes. I mean, one can FEEL the PAIN of the young lady when served her husbands passing. This video COMPLETLEY captures the severity of war and all of its victims. How it's reach is beyond the battle fields and saturates over our entire globe. WHEN will we STOP this MURDEROUS TRADGEDY and rise UP a collective consciousness of UNITY and LOVE? SO MUCH depends on that. It LITERALLY is over due and the wick is all but burnt out. --ALL of my Blessings, Love, Gratitude and HOPE for all of your lives', strengths and LOVE.
What is sad is it seems like we are all fighting for our towns cities alive and from them taking it from us. You go to sleep and wake up to a different place and it's no dream. Keep fighting one day we will win it back
What bothers me... What REALLY bothers me... Is nobody sees the correlation with this video and "Joe Metro" by Blue Scholars. C'mon now, ya'll ain't Seattle hip hop ..
This is growing up in Seattle hip-hop, so many of the people in this video, where my teachers they taught the youth which I was. Respect, I wish so bad to go back to those days…😢
