Flipping through the radio stations three years ago and I found a random Canadian station playing a really good song. I kept my radio on that station, hoping that they would play that song again so I could find out who it was, it was Hedley. I'm so glad that I was flipping through and found them, because they are an amazing band with amazing music
Everyone in the comment section.. Please you may not think you're worth anything but I promise you are. Everyone may feel bad and everyone does. It's okay to cry, it shows your emotions.How you feel, why you feel that way. Wether you have depression, eating disorders, anything. It's all hard. You NEED to believe in yourself, if not you'll never get to see the real you, nether will others. I know this might not be very well written but just ALWAYS remember, you're awesome!
By far, one of the best Canadian bands of all time. Absolutely love their music. One of my all time favourite bands. Don't care what anyone says about them. They made some amazing music. Saw them live twice. Once on the wild live tour and once on the hello world tour. Even met them on the hello world tour. One of the best nights of my life. I'll always be a Hedley fan. Such an amazing band.
So willl i i love their music and always willl!!! I just hope the band can get together and make more music ! They are super talented the songs are amazing !!🙏🙏🙏
same! i seen them live in 2014 or 2015. It was free tickets and i was just hoping i’d be able to go. That concert was how i discovered U.S.S. They have a few good songs too ☺️
I'm not one to get obsessed over bands... until I heard Hedley and Marianas Trench... they're just perfect. The music is meaningful, beautiful and amazing ♥♡
This is a beautiful song. A few years ago I was anorexic. I always felt fat and no matter how much you weight you still feel bad about yourself. It is not an easy thing to overcome. It is my boyfriend that got me help and he continues to help me feel better about myself. I still have those really bad days but he makes it better.
This song really brings me to tears every time I hear it. I struggle with depression, anxiety and bi polar disorder. I hear the lyrics of "perfection of my frailty", "broken", "writing a letter to myself," "I feel like I'm fine today", and "that morning comes faster alone"... It takes me back to the many years I've suffered alone, feeling broken, and having people look at me like I'm worthless and that there's something wrong with me. Well, there is something wrong with me. There is something wrong with everyone. Imperfection is the perfect we should all seek. And I know that my mental health will not "take a part of me". :)
+Jessica Christine I am like you , sadly to say some days I fall hard , but always pick up the piece and try again to get a true smile . so many days a mask I wear on my face not to show how broken I am .. as the blood flows from my broken stem .. so happy you are able to find a way for you to not let it over come you .
I can relate to these precious words that this amazing man sings and read, seen in this video... I'm a fighter of this disorder, disease, and it never ends! I'm now 47 yrs old and there is not a day goes by that I do not suffer! It's a never ending story.... Let his voice be heard, this song brings strength when I am at my lowest of weakness. I'm sure I speak for many others in the world that are suffering the same demon. You are not alone. Thank you for healing us. Your fans. ❤️❤️
I listen to this every now and then because it reminds of how far I've come and how much I've gained since I started letting of the ED. I can't say it is completely gone but I've gained so much insight into what goes on in my mind that I can catch my distorted thoughts when they emerge. Stay strong
This song brings me to tears. Its really reminds me of my boyfriend. He's been through hell and back I swear. He tries to pretend that he's fine but really he's not. I try so hard to make him see that all of the things he's been through doesn't matter anymore, but he still is depressed. He's really skinny and he hardly ever smiles. I'm not gonna give up on him, but I just wish I was able to help him.
Feel like im falling more and more into depression, can't lie i have moments where i just sit there and think about life without me. How much easier it would be for the people in my life without me there anymore. I'm 18 and nobody my age should feel like this. I'm so tired emotionally don't think i could last anymore.
Don’t feel that way! I get the same thing. But what I keep failing to understand is that there are people that really care about you. Nobody voices it because it often feels awkward to be so sentimental but you matter. You matter! Don’t forget that
One month ago was the hedley concert here in halifax and youu made this a month ago so i feel like you might have been at the concert and then went over all the songs again once you got home x)
Nearly brought me to tears. Reminds me of me, in a lot of ways.. With Anorexia and Bulimia for four years. I can say they've portrayed these monsters exactly as they are. It kind of scares me seeing I do exactly the same routine as the girl in the video. Wake up early, weigh, look in mirror, most of the time cry. Write down weight goals, tell myself no eating. And seeing how it hurts him in the video is exactly what it does to others in a real scenerios.. And I love how they show that ANY you can weigh ANY WEIGHT and be Anorexic whether it's underweight, average weight, or overweight. It's a mental illness, that can kill you no matter what weight you are. You're still damaging your organs. And most of us know every little thing that can happen to us, some have it happen to them.. but we don't stop. It's not as simple as "Just eat small meals throughout the day." or any of that crap. Because the thoughts are still there. And sadly, don't go away. Love this song..
I'm the same exact way and iv been having a lot of trouble with my body image and i was wondering if you have any tips I'm a "small" weight(people tell me all the time) but i always want to be smaller and there is always something saying that maybe if i get to a low enough weight ill finally be beautiful. all i need is some tips or advice it could really help me thanks
I meant North America, of course. My older sister would never stop talking about how much she loved the fact that such amazing people came from our country.
you know you have the perfect guy when he tells you how beautiful you are every day even when you think you're at your worst. he loves you when you're mad. he makes you feel better when you're sad. he gives the best hugs, the best kisses. you know he's the perfect person to be with and you know you'll love him forever.
@@kotecastro3988 Jacob Hoggard, the frontman, has been charged with sexual assault and sexual interference. His trial has been rescheduled to 2022 due to the pandemic.
@@pixelygon2122 that's what I try to do when listening to their music. However, the reality is that they have been dropped by their producers, radio stations no longer play their music and they are no longer touring. So Jacob's alleged behaviors have had far reaching consequences.
This song is a 4 minute 13 second inside look of my life.. it hasnt been great but i choose not to complain cuz it could have been worst ... but at least I know there's one person in this world who believes in me ... Awesome song hedley
This was my sisters favourite band sadly she took her life 3 years ago listening to this song just brings back memories of her. Just tugging at my heartstrings :( why o why.....
I've been trying to remember this song for over 2 years but could never remember what it was called or the band's name. It came up on my Facebook memories today. So happy I've found it & now i've got it blasting through my speakers (sorry neighbours) not sorry 🤷🏽♀️
@@katarinamarcelli86 I agree that their music is amazing - I have trouble reconciling his talent and the fact that Jacob is in jail for sexual assault causing bodily harm - and facing another charge.
This song is poweful it makes me cry, you can feel the raw emotion behind the story of the song and in the lyrics and it's so perfectly sad, you can tell that this isn't some dopy song that came from nowhere, that it means something to the writer and that's how music should always be, it should make you FEEL something.
Thank you Hedley you music moves me up down and all around. Gunnin reminds me to appreciate the beauty of my perceived imperfection; for in there lie's my humble growth, acceptance and tolorance.
Instantly just thought of high school boyfriend … crying at the dances he wouldn’t go too , crying because of the cheating and childish scandals … thinking my whole world would fall apart if he wasn’t in it .. such a young age to face such toxicity …. This song still gives me all the feels.. I can still feel the sleepless nights , falling asleep with my headphones with this on replay .. anyone who ever feels this way , it gets better . I promise 🙏🏼
They didn't "sell out" jake, tommy, Chris and Dave still write all their songs. It's just different. They've grown up.They've always had those random fun songs like Lost In Translation on the hello album. Just like Street Fight from the first record. They're all in their 30's and 40's now... Radio has changed, they're honestly just keeping up. Listen to the lyrics in their newer stuff. Listen to can't slow down.. They're just as deep and meaningful as they were then. Just because the instrumental is different doesn't mean the meaning behind their songs has changed.
+Kiersten marie While trying to "keep up" they have most definitely sold out....their music sounds like all the other generic bullshit on the radio. I listened to them when they had decent music, when they were different and didn't do what else one else was doing.
The hello album is actually awesome. The wild life album is too but that is definitely my least favourite Hedley album. I agree their older music though is their best music. I love their older music. I love all their albums but if I had to pick one album where it's my least favourite, it would have to be wild life. Hedley is the best band in history. I LOVE Hedley.
InTheMoment back then (literally 2005) this was generic. punk was very popular, you have to change your music up over the course of your career, also the band seems to enjoy their music, old and new
i was in 8th grade when this ish came out :') lool i was soo in love with this dude.. i think it was the beginning or ending of 2006 or something!! love hedley!!!
Tell me what I'll never be Make me feel broken Tell me what I should believe I didn't know it was broken And I'm gunnin' for you I'm gunnin' for you And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself And I will find out that morning comes faster alone I hate the way you look at me As if I was broken And the perfection of my frailty Has been questioned and broken And I'm gunnin' for you I'm gunnin' for you And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself And I will find out that morning comes faster alone And I feel like I'm fine today I feel like I'm ready to take this on And I'll fight you to the grave for it I'll never let you take a part of me with you And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself And I will find out that morning comes faster alone And I will wait, I'll write another letter to myself And I will find out that morning comes faster alone The perfection of my frailty has been questioned and broken
Here I am thinking about how in middle school I put a photo slideshow of our family as a Christmas gift to my mother with this as audio. Probably too young and only focused on the chorus... And now I never see my family after my mother and father deciding I wasn't worth their time anymore at different ages in my life. Well.. Now this song kind of hurts knowing I played it for them almost 10-12 years prior to it making the impact it does now... Ugh. Them feels.
this song is so beautiful , it is my favorite song it has been for a very long time. it speaks to me . it helps me through so much , i am blessed to have this song. it speaks to me :)
I have struggled with anorexia for as long as i can remember. As a child into adult hood. I love this song. This man hit home.. To anyone who suffers just know your not alone. There is help out there..
The moment when she runs into his arms... Holy smokes... Do you not see the passion and the love there (I know they're just acting, but that shit actually happens...)... The support as he holds her... It actually brought me to tears....
This is the first song I ever remember hearing from Hedley. When I first heard this song in 2006, I never realized how amazing this song was, and I never expected how much I'd grow to love them, and I never imagined I would ever get to hug Jacob Hoggard, but last night I did ... It's amazing what life sends you.
when I heard that the band (especially Jacob) were accused of sexual assault it really hurt... they bring out these soul clenching songs with lyrics that litteraly bring you to tears and then you find out that there may be a girl or woman out there that was sexually assaulted by one of them. that breaks my heart...
Jade Rondolo I feel that. As an ex fan of them for over 11 years. I was obsessed. They were my life. I remember rushing home from grade 5 just to watch the emo punk looking jake on canadian idol. But I believe in survivors and I miss this band
so I used to listen to this song a lot back when my eating disorder was really bad, when I was colloquially in 'ana hell' and I always thought it fit my feelings really well. today is the first time I'm watching the video, and the whole way through I was thinking that it really does imply an eating disorder, and then it came to 3:54 and FUCKING HELL I was right but also... damnit brain please don't have a panic attack right now I'm begging you
@@silkk7993 He's in jail as we speak and his bandmates have come out to describe what he did to these young female fans. I love Hedley, but apparently Jaccob was a real prick with girls, which is unacceptable
