Hoobastank - The Reason (Official Music Video) 

Seriously miss this so much. Running home to watch MTV, no social media, riding my bike around trying to find my friends. I wish I knew how good life was. I wanna go back and just appreciate everything.

Listened to this song as a new Dad back in 2004, rocking my daughter. Teared up every time, thinking she was my reason to change.... Now she's in college and hearing it still makes me think of her as my little baby....

Even if you just heard a glimpse of this as a child, that tune is unforgettable

Hoobastank, when this first came out I was homeless, messed up, and in jail. Now I have a husband, a home, and a good job. This song and “Clover Cage - Lies From The Devil” are the two songs that helped me overcome my depression. I just want people to know that things do get better. We are in this together. I love you ❤️

I heard it as a child I hear it now as an adult I'll hear it when I'm old This song is timeless

it's almost 2017, and this is still the best song ever

This is the music of my childhood: gentle, pure, and soul touching

I'm not a perfect person There's many things I wish I didn't do But I continue learning I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you I'm sorry that I hurt you It's something I must live with everyday And all the pain I put you through I wish that I could take it all away And be the one who catches all your tears Thats why I need you to hear I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is You and the reason is You [x3] I'm not a perfect person I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you I've found a reason to show A side of me you didn't know A reason for all that I do And the reason is you

My dad played this song for me every morning on the way to school. Nice to go back to a memory where everything was simpler

Lyrics I'm not a perfect person There's many things I wish I didn't do But I continue learning I never meant to do those things to you And so, I have to say before I go That I just want you to know I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new And the reason is you I'm sorry that I hurt you It's something I must live with everyday And all the pain I put you through I wish that I could take it all away And be the one who catches all your tears That's why I need you to hear I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new And the reason is you And the reason is you And the reason is you And the reason is you I'm not a perfect person I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new And the reason is you I've found a reason to show A side of me you didn't know A reason for all that I do And the reason is you

The level of nostalgia this song gives is unimaginable. 2 decades and counting and still a masterpiece!

❤I'm here and listening Sept 2024 and still loving it

Best song of 2004!

It's December 2020 & the song still lives. And the reason is you!

I was randomly clicking around then I found this. It's been nearly a bloody decade! So much nostalgia.

My brother was an organ donor and they gave us the option to play 3 songs during his surgery one from my father one from my mother and one from me, the choice was easy R.I.P Darrell I miss you bro.

I WANTED TO FEEL NOSTALGIC AND I JUST SAW THIS AND SO IT HAD A LOT OF VIEWS AND I THOUGHT OOH MUST BE A GOOD SONG HOLY CRAP I DIDNT REALIZE THIS IS THE SONG I ALWAYS LISTENED TO WHEN I WAS LITTLE

Anyone else on an oldschool video spree?

Sending good vibes to everyone reading this-hope your day is filled with joy! :) ❤❤

Does anybody ever just get tired of today's music and find them selves going on a old music rampage. Hug me guys if you feel it! Love from Philippines!

My dumb ass typed in “I’m not a perfect person” just to find this song

my older sister who died from cancer used to sing this to me all the time, and i’d cry.. when she died this song kept getting stuck in my head.

This is one of those songs that you immediately equate with the early 2000s.

I'm not a perfect person As many things I wish I didn't do But I continue learning I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you I'm sorry that I hurt you It's something I must live with everyday And all the pain I put you through I wish that I could take it all away And be the one who catches all your tears That's why I need you to hear I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new And the reason is you (bis x 4) I'm not a perfect person I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you I've found a reason to show A side of me you didn't know A reason for all that I do And the reason is you

For every like I'll talk to her. Every comment I'll ask her out ❤

The early 2000s were good vibes and great sounds

After 30 years of a failed marriage I’ve found a reason for me. And the reason is the love of my life. A reason to start over new. It’s never too late kids. I’m 60 and life goes on. This song captures it so well.

It's Year 2022!!! , Let's See How Many People Are Still Listening To This Masterpiece❤️🔥

I still listen this song, now 2024 with old age 🤭

This song reminds me that I can beat depression and gives me hope to be a better person

2020, quarentena 😣🇧🇷🌍🌐

This is such a mood and seeing comments 1 day ago makes my heart melt. Keep listening guys.

after literal decades, this came to mind today. I'm glad it did

The early 2000's were definitely something to remember 🧡

No soy una persona perfecta Hay muchas cosas que desearía no haber hecho Pero sigo aprendiendo Nunca fue mi intención hacerte eso Así que tengo que decirte antes de irme Que solo quiero que sepas Que he encontrado la razón para Cambiar lo que siempre he sido Una razón por la cual empezar de nuevo Y la razón eres tú Siento haberte lastimado Es algo con lo que tendré que vivir siempre Y todo el dolor por el que te hice pasar Desearía poder quitártelo Y ser el que seca todas tus lágrimas Es por eso que necesito que escuches He encontrado la razón para Cambiar lo que siempre he sido Una razón por la cual empezar de nuevo Y la razón eres tú No soy una persona perfecta Nunca fue mi intención hacerte eso Así que tengo que decirte antes de irme Que solo quiero que sepas Que he encontrado la razón para Cambiar lo que siempre he sido Una razón por la cual empezar de nuevo Y la razón eres tú He encontrado una razón para mostrar Un lado de mí que no conocías Una razón para todo lo que hago Y la razón eres tú

August 2024?

Damn...Nostalgia Why you cut onions in front of my eyes

If you are still listening to this after 17 years, we got to be friends.

love this damn song

Whos listening who's whole deal is being chill and not giving a fuck? this song really worked its way into my heart. This seems like a chill guy tbh

Nothing much better than driving in a long road singing this.

0:29 "I'm not a perfect person" Well running over someone isn't really a good start, yeah.

This is still my most favourite song that I never forget.

2024 people attend here 😊

This is Seriously such an incredible song... Miss these guys.

I first heard this song from them live in concert. I hadn't heard of Hoobastank, and had gone for another band that was playing with them. I remember being absolutely blown away by this song when I first heard it there. Now I don't even remember who else played at that concert, but I remember Hoobastank singing this song. That was the most memorable part, and it still sticks with me all these years later. Truly one of the greatest songs ever made.

I remember my college days listening to this song. It's been years now. I miss my friends. 😭

2024??anyone?

This song is for all generations, will be played for centuries because good music never dies!

Im not in a breakdown. This song just kick tears out of me. Masterpiece

I’m here 2024 listening who is out there listening🖤🤪🎶🤘🏻💯

This song reminds me of something special that happened to us. Hoobastank were my mum's favourite band when I was growing up, so she would always play their records in the car on the way to school. When her mother died, we used the money in her will to go to the States, as a reward for the stress she went through with her mother's declining health. I remember it was on the 27th of July that we were in a mall in Orange, LA, when we saw something on a billboard - it was a poster for a free public Hoobastank concert. On that day - which happened to be my mum and dad's wedding anniversary - we went to see our favourite band who are renowned for being on an endless world tour, with no planning whatsoever. It was as if there was some guardian angel who just wanted to see my mum happy again, and it worked. It was against all odds but it happened and it was one of the best days of my life, even though I do not remember it very well as I was quite young at the time.

In memory of my bro going through his fav songs. R.I.P.

Who's still here listening and crying with all the memories from the past? Anyone here August 2020?
