When I was 14 years old I was diagnosed with a rare form of Leukemia that killed 99.8% of every patient diagnosed with it. No one survived more than a year. It was 1979. The only survivor was a bone marrow transplant survivor from Seattle, WA. I had no donor match, so my fate was solidified. I am a father of 4 sons and 2 grandsons because of Riley Children's Hospital in Indianapolis. I was the only patient that did not receive a transplant to live 2 years in 1981 in the country. When Atlas falls some do rise up. I am a living testament to that. And I have left many sets of eyes to carry on!
Meine Frau hat mich vor 4 Monaten verlassen. Wir haben zwei kleine KInder. Ich war lange Zeit am Ende . . . Ich finde langsam zurück ins Leben. Dieses Lied hilft mir so sehr!!!!!
My son's father passed away.. our sons name is Atlas, and I feel like this is his song to us.. he will always be there to rise up and carry us away.. this song heals me a little every time I hear it.. thank you.
Oh my god! Whose cutting onions in the room? This song is such a powerful anthem! #ThankyoutomyCentervilleOstervilleMarstonsMillsFirefamilyforfightingtocarryusalltheway!
The push is always part of us And gravity's never a friend Deciding on who we can trust And finding our way to crescendo, to the unknown We'll never make it outside Lest we unlock the past and release The future that we've left to die For too long we've taken placebos But the unknown, is awakening Don't give up now, there's already so much at stake If Atlas falls, I'll rise up and carry us all the way No, we can never look back Return to the salt and the sea The quiet is only a trap And I will not take the placebos 'Cause the unknown is awakening But I will crescendo Don't give up now, there's already so much at stake If Atlas falls, I'll rise up and carry us all the way It won't pull me down The weight of impossible days I'll stand tall I'll rise up and carry us all the way Keep moving forward now Keep your head above the clouds I'm right with you, I will lift you Just hold on Don't give up now, there's already so much at stake If Atlas falls, I'll rise up and carry us all the way It won't pull me down (moving forward now) The weight of impossible days (keep your head above the clouds) I'll stand tall (I'm right with you, I will lift you, just hold on) I'll rise up and carry us all the way I'll carry us all the way (Keep moving forward now)
That's tough, I'm 15 oldest of four siblings, my parents were listening to shine down before I was even concieved...hope that doesn't sound wierd, my parents mean a lot to me even when I'm being a punk I feel sorry for the sh!t I said,I don't even know what ur going through man,I'm sorry for ur lost, may ur father rest in peace
Sorry for your loss. I lost both of my parents very suddenly last year. I do understand what you are going through. Just be the best person you can be and that above all will be a true honor and lasting legacy for your father. 🙏
Shinedown is one of the most down to Earth bands. It's sweet how they always give to charity and they seem like they'd be awesome to hang out with. It's always a good feeling when bands like this get recognition. Keep it up! Music is great!
@@donaldlofty4157 I so agree, I love watching the videos they post that aren't just their new releases so I could see how they were in real life. It's fun and they seriously are the most grateful people.
That's wild , both bands have had a huge influence on us, Our guitarist LoganX is a huge Metallica fan, and as a collective group we all love Shinedown!
i could not be more grateful for this band they’ve helped me through a lot these past few years - i’m 17 now and found them at 12. they’ve pushed me forward every time i’ve found it hard to move another step. this song is a masterpiece and i’m so endlessly grateful for this music. 💕
Daaammm I was 13 years old when I discovered their song Sound of Madness, and now I'll be 24 in a couple of months... Time flies, haven't think about it till I read your comment...
Shinedown is an example of what a band should be. Selfless, caring giving individuals. Thank you for putting your amazing voices to a good cause. You are legends in my eyes.
An amazing Amaryllis-esque song with an empowering message about the current difficult situation! 💪 😷 🌍 Under no circumstances do I undermine their noteworthy initiative, but I'm really glad that they released the full song and, as a result, all of us can enjoy this awesome track! Congrats, Shinedown, and keep writing great songs! 🎶 🎵 🎼 🎧
Can you imagine Amaryllis's face when she learns the truth? Like I'm trying to not be heartbroken cuz it's an amazing story. I will never ever look at love the same. Simple man, traveling soldier by Dixie chicks and rooster by Alice in chains.
Randoman35 i think it seems more pure this way, more full. Like you say, curse words are meaningless, so to fill a song with swearing is pointless. This song has a very clear message, and it wastes no time in conveying that message. I personally find cursing in songs no big deal, but i will say that if it were excessive, it’d be a bit annoying. There’s a song called Promise Me by Badflower that i think is a perfect example of how to effectively curse in a song. It conveys a very clear emotion, and i think that’s another point to make. Usually, cursing in a song is just there to be there, but in Promise Me, it’s there to show feelings of frustration and sadness, and that makes it all the more emotional. It’s a great song
As a first responder, I don't need any thanks or praise, but DAMN if this song did not give me goosebumps and make me tear up. I love Shinedown, man. I've been to so so many live concerts and I will always be a big fan. Thank YOU, Shinedown for this video. You touched my heart once again.
@@nihadtv6449 Your point? It doesn't change the fact that the Covid pandemic was 99.9% fear mongering, it doesn't change the fact that they bought into it, it doesn't change the fact that they support a terrorist movement, and it doesn't change the fact that America is fucked because half cannot see that.
All First Responders are no less that True Warriors.. You deserve medals.. as appreciation just doesn't encompass the depth of courage and dedication that became a global saving grace..
This may sound a little crazy but here it is. Today I had to go take care of some things for my dad, he is in the hospital, I got done and wanted a bag of my chips went to one place they didn’t have them , went to the grocery store and they didn’t have them either, so I was looking at other chips and came the conclusion I didn’t want any other chips when I heard a very familiar voice singing from the speakers, Immediately i thought of my sister it was here kind of music, so I ask Siri what song is this? It pulled this song and one of my sister’s favorite bands was Shinedown, she passed away last September from covid, yet she is still sending me awesome songs! Until we meet again sister I won’t give up, I LOVE YOU!!!
My condolences I I've lost everybody in my family. Now I'm scared that it's about to happen to me with my lungs and my ❤️. I love lost so many of my family members due to strokes and cancer and I miss and love them deeply . I'm just scared I'll be next. Thank you for sharing and I'm so sorry for your loss. You are forever in my prayers. God bless and take care ❤❤
@@lorihelderman9923 I am believing Jesus that he will put the right people in your life that you may LIVE AND NOT DIE AND DECLARE THE WORKS OF THE GOD! You my friend are still here for a purpose, if you still have breath in your lungs THANK GOD, in the name of Jesus and DECLARE THAT YOU SHALL LIVE AND NOT DIE!!! You are in my prayers!
@kellihermann4099 thank you so very much friend. In times like thse we all need a friend..Thank you !! Like I said forever in my prayers and my thoughts forever
Shinedown is one of the best bands around in my opinion. Life stories sung with heartfelt passion. Brent's voice is soothing and powerful. The band plays beautifully. Oblivian, second chance, how did you love? Save me, and the list goes on.....
My son passed away on Sunday, suffering long from addiction. This song was 1. The last thing he and I listened to together. 2. Is helping me to carry on in the hard days, weeks, months and years to come.
Same,I just turned 13 and ive been to 2 shindown concerts and it would have been 3 but it got cancledd.My dad used to blast there old music in the car when i was little and to thos day they are still my favorite
@@ToastiestWaffle You're right, "bad song" is different for every person. I've listened to every Shinedown song that exists and not one is bad imo. Some are "better" than others yes, but I can't name one I don't like.
I am an ER doctor, who worked in full pandemic emergency... and still today, after three years, every time I listen to this I cry. Forever grateful for this song, Shinedown 🙏🏻♥️
As a nurse, who has been in this since day one, I need motivation to move forward to do my job on some days when all I want to do is curl up in ball and cry, and never do this again. But I can't. We rise up and move forward. Thank you for this song, I play it once a day maybe more if I am having a rough time processing and putting myself on the front line everyday. It also prevents me from throat punching idiots and their conspiracy theories, my purpose is higher, that is what I focus on, giving care and holding hands of my elderly patients who are soooooooooo lonely, and I need to make them happy and pull them through this, when so many of their friends in the facility have passed from this and family members they don't even know about. So Thank You for my motivation and inner strength.
Thank you for being there for others. Thank you for your unselfish ways, and putting yourself into danger to help and save others. My therapist tells me to have a "fuck day" where I go somewhere alone and just scream FUCK whatever is bothering me. Like FUCK covid FUCK so and so...FUCK all of the hatred...I thought it was crazy advice until I did it. It was actually helpful for me to release pent up emotions. I have frequent "fuck days " Please forgive me if I have offended with the language. Take care of yourself 😇😊🥰
Atlas Falls is profound, incredibly dynamic & noteworthy. It's been like the sleeping giant for the past 8 years, waiting for the right time to be woken up and released. And now is the appropriate time. And I proudly wear my Atlas Falls t-shirt knowing that 100% of the proceeds went to Direct Relief. To the guys of Shinedown, Brent, Zack, Eric and Barry, I salute you all for your contribution to humanity.
How Ironic is this! Listening to this song and thinking of what Shinedown means to me from "The Sound of Madness" to "Call Me", and "Misfits", that "Atlas Falls" is so real right now. I thought "wait, I have a t-shirt coming too. where is it?" Checked my email, found a tracking number that said it was delivered today. At midnight, went out to the mail box, and I'm wearing it now.
Shinedown, thank you for always bringing it for the betterment of the human spirit. As a soon to be retired firefighter (July 2) our brotherhood benefits from people like Brent, Zach, Barry and Eric. SD Nation 4 Life
This song needs to be on the National News, Shinedown is amazing and there are people right now who haven’t heard this and they need too! They just don’t know it yet.
"Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends!" ~John 15:13. Thank you to the firefighters, police officers, nurses, doctors, and other front line workers who work tirelessly during this pandemic to keep the world going.
Literally got chills when the video first showed a person with the mask on. Literally a perfect song given what is going on right now. Anyone Else get chills too?
This song brings so many emotions, and I sit here crying from the memories of the past 11 weeks. How you managed to capture the souls who are on the frontline is beyond me. They are warriors, they are heroes that have never given up on us.
My father died due to Covid a few months ago. I’m currently getting a music teaching degree, I’ve been thinking about dropping out because it’s just too hard to focus. I imagined my dad singing to me. I’m standing in a dark shower crying because I know he wouldn’t want me to quit. Thank you shinedown. I love you dad ❤️
@@outspoken5326 I’m going to try to tough out this school year and try to get the classes I’m failing to at least a C. Then starting fresh next semester
Lost1 this song was released a few weeks ago as a way to profit to donate to an organization called Direct Relief. I believe it was 50$ for the song and a t-shirt and 100% of profits got donated. They finally released the song to the general public.
This band never disappoints. I lost my right leg mid covid a d spent quite a while in the hospital when I heard this song. The doctors and nurses don't get nearly enough recognition for the exhausting work they did and still do. And this motivated me to pick up and move forward to walk again. I'll be seeing you guys tonight. Can't wait!!
Why did I never hear this song on the radio???? I had to hear it for the first time here on RU-vid about a month ago. This song should be on every radio station, no matter the genre.
I am still a bit young, it made me cry bc my mom has cancer and is battling it each and every day. She needs prayer. Plus my friends turn their back on except a couple. Even though I am a teenager, my mom has taught me so much. When covid hit, I was so devastated. Then I became depressed. I know I am young but being ripped into differ directions is hard... Please take care of each other and have a blessed life. Bc one of my family members is fighting covid. Please take it seriously bc u never know when ur loved ones is going to leave. Please like my comment. And thanks for the song, it was uplifting.
Man not all teenagers are like that and I can tell u because I'm one and it's pretty disgusting how your friends turnt their backs on you when u needed them I hope you're mum gets through this and keep on rocking man
I preordered the T-Shirt, so I had the full song, but I was waiting for this to release, because I wanted my shirt, but more than that I wanted to add this to my playlist so I could annoy my wife! That said, this week has been a whirlwind. A guy I grew up with, who became a psych PT of mine passed last weekend, had a great uncle pass yesterday, and my second daughter born today. The official release of this song just adds to the joyous side of my week. Gonna enjoy a long weekend, my new daughter, and this amazing, wonderful, touching song.
IT'S SO GOOD OH MY GOSH,, just the song we need right now. it makes me feel so hopeful, which can be hard during this pandemic. thank you, shinedown :^) also, thank you for donating proceeds to direct relief!! that is so rad of you all.
This entire thing is horrible and America has been hard, but we will pull it out! We will rise! We will prevail! God bless you all out there and we will be OK! This country has been through hell before and emerge stronger every time, and this is no different!
William Hickey I’m definitely not a huge Kobe Bryant fan but yes that was tragic. The hardest one for me was Neil Peart from Rush. I saw them three or four times in my life and when he died I cried like a 6 year old who had their candy bar taken. It was a huge musical influence on me and inspired me through lots of hard times in my life. He was one of a kind of a true hero and he fought so hard to get so much including brain cancer. I mean don’t get me wrong this is a hard time for America and it’s devastating but I wish people could acting like it’s the end of this country because we’ve come through things before and we will come through this too.
I love you guys @Shinedown. I don’t want to sound selfish, because I know there are others that are going through so much more right now with what’s going on in the world, but you’ve gotten me through my depression. I was on the verge of committing suicide last summer way before all of this, but you guys helped me through it. You made me who I am. And I’m stronger because of it. Thank you @Shinedown I hope to see you play one day after all of this madness is over. And for anyone out there, doesn’t matter who you are, DO NOT give up hope. We will survive, we will endure, and future generations will tell stories about this for centuries to come. We are the fighters, so let’s kick this bitch-ass virus in the ass 🤘🏻🖤
Hey,I'm glad 4 u! I'm an adult,dedicated fan of Shinedown & donated 2 a gr8 cause for them & well,that was April the 9th!?!? Who knows? & I'm a hoping it'll come soon! Stay safe,have a goood 1.✌
“How did you love” and “What a shame” have gotten me through grief, “Get up” got me through finals, and now I have this to get me through quarantine. “Don’t give up now, there’s already so much at stake” is honestly my new mantra. I’m only sorry I couldn’t give more to the fundraiser. Shinedown music has meant more to me than all other music combined.
I feel u on that I'm having a hard time to with depression as well 😔 but if u need to chat I'm here cause when ppl know about ur depression ur stigmatized they act like there gonna catch it😢😢
Anytime I ever feel like I need some motivation. This song always gives it to me. When I make my movie, I will be looking to you Shinedown to be able to use your music in my movie. Your messages helped so many people. God bless you guys.
My Dad passed away during the height of the pandemic and I couldn't grieve for him with all the restrictions in place at that time. I'm still trying to deal with it but this song helps a bit. Thank you.
Just hoping when I come back from deployment that I can see them. They’ve been my biggest musical inspirations since I bought MX vs. ATV in 2004. I’m 20 now and they’re playing in my hometown in August four days before my birthday...just praying I can finally see them for the first time.
Chills through my whole body from the moment the song starts to the end. Stay stong, stay safe everyone. Remember, Covid-19 will also fade one day. Nothing lasts forever.
Im a product builder for a medical company. We’ve had to contribute to the cause since it began. We’re swamped in work orders but we’re pulling through
This song gives me hope. I struggle with depression and anxiety. Every song they sing I can identify with. Shinedown, thank you so much for giving me hope. Don't ever stop making amazing music.
I know this is a young age to say it, since I’m 12, but I’ve been dealing with depression and anxiety for a couple years. Shinedown is actually one of the few things keeping me from just.... calling it quits.
I made a donation to thank you for releasing the song to everybody. I heard it on Spotify at 00.01hrs this morning and have had it on repeat for ages. 🤣 ♥️ Love to the Shinedown family and to all the fans. ♥️
Thank you for this song and fundraiser ❤️ I'm a physician and returned from volunteering in NYC a few weeks ago. I've been struggling with the emotions related to what I saw and the work we did. When I heard this song it was the intense catharsis I needed. Your piece of art imitates the life we are living and I know life will imitate your art as well. We will rise. ❤️
What's it like knowing that medical mistakes are the #3 cause of premature death in the US? As a "medical professional" only heart disease and the big "C" are responsible for more people passing away before they should've than your profession. Those pharmaceutical company paid for vacations and bonuses must really be hard to turn away.
@@ginacalabrese3869 I feel sorry for you. Truly. Someone is trying to find inspiration during a rough spot in their life, and all you can add is darkness. I'm sorry for whatever you're going through that won't allow you to offer anything brighter. You'll notice he said he was volunteering. So, nothing was paid. I'll admit the US has problems with healthcare, and they go well beyond one doctor. If you're really concerned, try speaking with your congressmen - anyone that actually has the power to do something about the problem. Taking it out on the people doing their best to help solves nothing - especially when they face the same problems the rest of us do.
Ok I am not like most fans I have been listening to y’all sines I was a baby and I am only 11 yeah I know you didn’t expect that. My dream is to meet y’all and my family LOVES YALL too so if you are reading this please here me out!❤️🤘🏼
So damn good: Epic song, released at the right time! Stay all save and healthy, wherever you are listening to it! All the best from Germany! We will beat Covid19! 👊
I can see how this would've been part of Amaryllis. I wish it was. It is so beautiful but I'm also glad its not. I think this is the perfect song for everyone to be listening to this moment. I hope that everyone is doing amazing and none too you have known or lost someone during this time. I pray you all are okay and safe.
I work all day in a biological/chemical fume hood, building the covid 19 test kits for Mayo Clinic. The psychological trauma the front lines are facing is presenting in multiple ways. Thank you, from all I have for keeping me sane in an insane world.
I've been a Shinedown for over 10 years and their most recent album was my Second favorite behind Sound of Madness. My favorite song is Diamond Eyes. I was wondering what everyone else's favorite song or album is. If you don't feel like answering, hope you have a great day. Stay safe! Keep listening to great music
My personal favorite album attention attention only because it hits really close to home for all of my family. All of their songs are beautiful though 👌👌. Thanks for letting me share!
Favorite album is probably THREAT TO SURVIVAL,though LEAVE A WHISPER holds a special place in my heart because it was our introduction to the band, favorite song would have to be NEVER LET GO,just because it makes me think of my wife,but I I often sing FOLLOW YOU DOWN to her, I'm a sap lol
