I remember being in a prison work release center and we were allowed to have CD players and sitting on my rack late night I had just finished listening to the whole album for the hundredth time and I was so into the CD that I noticed at the end of the, what I thought was the last song..Then I heard the faint background nosie and talking and I continued to listen and looking at the counter I realized there were several minutes left continued for all most 15 mins "Then this Played"..The Hidden Track!! Been hooked ever since.. just wanted to share this experience with the world. Thanks..js.
My former fiancee, who is now my close friend...I found out I was pregnant literally while he was being handcuffed. He spent 3 years in state prison, and during that time I introduced him to Blue October through lyrics I'd mail him and CDs I would have sent to him in quarterly packages. This was one of those songs. We broke up in 2017, and it was hard. But now I Hope You're Happy is my song to him, and his to me. And we have a beautiful son and I'm thankful for my ex, good times and bad. His prison sentence though, I was there for him the whole time. I've never felt closer to anyone than i was with him, while we were separated by bars, walls, and barbed wire. Funny, this thing called life.
Thank you for sharing that brother. I was in Burlington County Jail the first time I heard Hate Me. I was hooked, and introduced to what this band is all about. They are my hope and my strength on most days.
I've seen these guys and met them ...they don't get to Canada much but everytime they do me and my daughter go ...the are so under rated and so talented ...we live them
I met him in Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh. I was walking up to the line past a bus as justin walked right out then- got a picture with him. I literally cried at that show, he was "in it". I love him for expressing his feelings, life, everything- lifes been hard an their music gives me hope n not feel so alone.. totally *underated* but their fans are real fans for amazing reasons. ❤
Blue October is easily my favourite band. They always touch my heart. Having lost so much and come so far, they speak to the struggle and the victory. Always looking forward to more from them.
Man... the way he sings that part about having friends and pushing them away and them pushing back and wanting to stay and "That's one good thing I haaaaveee." My heart just breaks cause I know I've done that a lot.
My mom was murdered last year. And my father committed suicide when I was 3. I struggled every day if my life. And then she was taken from me. It's just me, and I'll find a way to make it.
We all suffer sometimes. I lost a best friend she was my sister in law. We grow and we always think of who we lost. Sending prayers for days to be brighter and your nights to be calming. Took me some time. 🌹
I don't even know what to do. My best friend the most beautiful Becky, finally listened to this song last night from start to finish. She was moved by it, like I thought she may be. We sat at my kitchen table for hours last night talking and laughing, listening to music, and eating junk food, etc. It was a moment in time I'll cherish forever. It's often said that we should love our people NOW because you never know when it's the last time you may see someone. My Becky left out of here about 3am this morning. I hugged her goodbye and watched her drive away. She was happy and said that she'll text me in a few when she gets home. I never got a text but I just figured the phone died, and she was tired anyway. But apparently she got about 5 minutes down the road here and then onto the highway. There was a wrong way driver that hit her head-on, and there was a second car that smashed into her as well. Becky was a beautiful red haired lady with love and passion for everyone. Her smile brightened up any room she was in and her presence was always positive and sweet. Just a little over Twenty-four hours ago I lost my best friend and my number 1 fan. My heart is broke and my soul feels worn. I still don't know what to do. Thank God for my dog. Love the people around you because the old saying is still true. 🙏 Fly high Becky Lynn, I love you girl. Tell my peeps up there I said sup ✌️
"I'm gonna feel a peace in me, I'm gonna feel at home, I'm gonna make this cloud above me disappear be gone., I wanna feel a punch inside my heart beat on the floor, I don't wanna hurt no more"
This song, after an explanation from my son, brought us to tears on a long road trip. A song that brought us closer. A song I shared with a lover who had lost his buddy to cancer and brought us closer. A song I shared because sometimes it takes a voice and words like this to bring out the sad to be strong. Love you Justin.. so real..
This song reminds me of a particularly hard time in my life. I remember feeling empty, abused, and broken. I really felt like I had lived my life half undone. Then I remember hearing this song for the first time. I could relate to it and, in a way, it made me feel better.
Blue October sings of some everyday situations and makes them beautifully sad. Every song i know of by blue October i adore. It amazes me how he conjures up words and you almost feel as though he has been through what you have or what your going through. Thanks for uploading the Video. :)
I have never heard this song before in my life and I listed to Foiled on a loop for at least a solid year! I can't believe I am just now hearing it! Crazy! Thank you!
i just spent ten weeks in a hospital where my love had a liver transplant and as dark as some of this music is it was my saving grace that got me over each night after she fell asleep and i wept for her because the doctors said she was not suppose to live thank you justin for giving me the strength to get through each night
I like the last word By or BYE... very fitting, first time I heard this was with in the car with my son, he was explaining the whole album to me. We listened to this song and we cried. It was a wow moment I'll never forget. This whole CD got me through a very sad break up. And also set me on a new path. Just good thoughts... It's all good.
Two years later but I'm so sorry for your loss. I played Fear at my mom's funeral. She passed away 12/28/16.. three days shy of her 55th birthday. Drugs are stupid. But she was clean the last 5 years of her life. And she was brave. Miss you my mama... Your comment got to me. I mean, I feel that shit. Take care. 💙
Oh Becca, you got this more than you give yourself credit for, your a smart, beautiful woman. Strong af! The loss of your beloved Jeff has solidified those traits! It's made you stronger, I'm sure you realize that.... If you don't, you will😊. My ears and heart are always open for you if you need them😙 goodnight 😘
oh my god i've been looking for this song since forever! i thought it was part of 18th floor balcony since i first heard it while listening to the song. no wonder i couldn't find it, got me all deep in my feels :(
Fucking perfect everytime. Listened to this song as a kid all the time with my mom and never like understood until adulthood. These lyrics cut through any emotional wall I build up. Remind yourself that all you have is that hot breath and beating pulse and you can heal. Thank you Justin for always being able to capture feelings that I only trusted my windshield with.
I know exactly how this feels. I can so relate to Justin. The pain inside is too much sometimes. I don't want to be mentally ill and cause or feel the hurt anymore. I wish I could be strong but it's so hard to be. Lost so much in my life.
Lost so many friends and some family. Burnt so many good bridges with people I really loved. Lost my kids who don't talk to me anymore even though I still try to call them. I have no one left. I'm alone in this world. :-(
Hiswonderous Love Please don't think that. You are not alone there are so many other people in the world who think the same way you do. Just remember you and your family will always be family no matter what happens. I just lost my uncle 3 days ago..I never thought of him as an uncle i thought as him being more of a older brother the part where Justin says '' don't take her (him being my uncle) away from me'' i have just felt so lost with out him walking though the door. well any way..i know what it feels like. I understand your pain and where you are coming from about not seeing your kids...i really hope your kids will talk to you again. They will be in my prayers!! Hope you have a great day! Love and laughs .Aspen.
Att the moment this is my favorite blue October song. I hope to see them perform live one day infront of me, I missed the chance last year as around the time I wouldn't go anywhere, would push my friends away, wouldn't eat or care about anything. Somedays I'm still like that alot. when the lyrics get to 'I've been finding out that I have what this world calls friends. I've tried to push them all away, they push me back and wanna stay and that's one good thing I have.' I get really emotional.
..I love this song. It reminds me of me & a guy I use to talk to. Then..I started listening to this all the time. He texted me saying sorry for everything. Everything he said. & asked to start over. Of course I said yes. This is my new favorite song. By far. 3
This is my song when I lost furbaby soulmate. Losing him hurt so bad. This song cuts me to the bone because he was my best friend. I love you Charlie ❤️ momma will meet you at the rainbow bridge. “I might’ve been gone but I never walked away” big guy. Soon Charlie ❤️
I didn't know this song was on the album, when i downloaded the album there was no mention of a hidden track, so it was quite some time before i discovered it there at the end of 18th floor balcony and i can't explain how glad i am that i eventually stumbled across it, i think it's just magnificent. Blue October are just awesome, really quite incredible.
I’ll miss blue .. hate is not a feeling I’m use to and I do. You’ve created a monster here and couldn’t even help me understand all these people and wanting more and more until I had to go again! Whatever you took from ME will never be mended. Its gone. You did worse what the rest did. I hope you’re pleased with your progress!
don't fell shitty... your not alone even when you think you are alone. it can and will get better. i bet you are amazing! keep your head up thing will change.
i overdosed the the song black orchid and could not listen to anything from them for almost a year and then i heard this song on a cd my ex made me and i was like... i have to redownload everything. this band saved my life by almost ending it. so much like their music
+LordEirikr I knew it! I mean ... thanks for letting me know that I was right, when I somehow suspect that this song is continuation of 18th Floor Balcony. I love it!
I hope I'll eventually learn to hate this song. It makes me cry at the end every single time. My birth mom told the people we contacted to ask her that she didn't want to meet me. I couldn't get a picture, obviously no last name. Nothing. I left a piece of me in her arms because the only time I was near her was when she held me when I was born. I know this is a song everyone can relate to, but seriously.. This is hard to listen to even though I like the song =(
everybodys opion of this song is the same if you read all the comments but yours I love and relate to it I thought as if he wrote my thoughts on paper but for you it hurts my heart in away helped me understand that what I going through is hard but what you going through is harder im sorry for that
"It's Just Me" I lost a piece of me in you; I think I left it in your arms. I forget the reasons I got scared, But remember that I cared quite a lot. You see but lately I've been on my own. Yeah one, but one by choice. You see, that's a first for me, There's only me, yeah theres only me, And now I realize for once, It's just me. It's just me. It's just me, And I'll find a way to make it, There's no one left to stop me. Here I go. Can we take it from the top? So why so long?
The Good Wife when you're coming because I really like that song and I don't know what your name is if you could run Miami 33043 if you want you can but you have to butt Translate
