i love this song, especially the guitar solo towards the end of the song. The guitars remind me of the song big machine. They sound just like the song big machine.
+SmashdudeTM The Pin, and both of Takac's tunes Free of Me and Prayer in my Pocket are by far the best. So Alive isn't that bad, but Souls in the Machine sounds like the Goo Goo Dolls we have known, it sounds like a late 90's early 2000's song.
i must say, there are 2 bands that never let me down through the years, Goo Goo Dolls and Bon Jovi, their 2016 work are AMAZING! I know who i can count on to keep 80-2000s music alive
Guys come on, I know we all miss the Superstar Car Wash days but you have to get used to the idea that their music will never sound like that again and that doesn't make their new music bad! This album is amazing and like every other GGD album it has its own style!
+J Pod People forget they have been around over 20 yrs now....they are in their 50's now...so of course their music is going to evolve and change. I love their new stuff just as I did their old music...I love the Boxes album.
"Souls in the Machine" Lyrics by #GoOgooDolls† All this time I was losing control Chasing a life that would steal my soul Too many faces, too many lies Too many hands trying to steal this prize We all got *demons* We all get scared On our knees hoping someone cares And all we need is a little honesty right now We're still waiting We are, we are, we are the soul in the machine We are, we are When you look up at the bright stars We are apart of everything We are, we are Every breath's a moment Every moment is a chance to live again This hope is burning like fire in my veins When the fear is gone and *the truth remains* *People are gusts* We've got so much to give, yeah So many dreams So much to live for When life gets hard, we get brave We all get scared, it's okay We are, we are, we are the soul in the machine We are, we are When you look up at the bright stars We are apart of everything We are, we are Every breath's a moment Every moment is a chance to live again When you hear it coming Oh it feels like falling When you find your calling Don't be afraid darling I know you'll always be brave When you hear it coming Oh it feels like falling When you find your calling Don't be afraid darling I know you'll always be brave Can you hear it calling? Oh it feels like falling And then you find your calling Don't be afraid Darling be brave
I’m living scared in this time. I couldn’t remember why I haven’t remembered this album, I lost my mother 5 years ago and I became a zombie. I wish she could live again! I love the sound of his voice at the end. I love all their songs.
Love this song touches my heart and soul!! We are We are every minute is the chance to live!! Look up at the bright 🌟 stars!! Be brave awesome lyrics Johnny resnik as always. Your lyrics are so beautiful and you are a beautiful man!! love and peace see you in Orlando hard Rock later summer!! Ali estero Florida
The songs on the album that sound like the Goo Goo Dolls we know from the 1990's to the early 2000's are Over and Over, this one, The Pin, Free of Me, Prayer In My Pocket, and So Alive. John Rzeznik and Robby Takac will always write the greatest lyrics since they have a theme and meaning as long as they live. They will always make at least one song that has their touch or a few every album. Goo Goo Dolls will never die, but I'll let this album slide, but I want their sound and touch back for all the songs because there will be a few that will not have it while the rest do.
I think the whole album doesn't sound like them. It's them lyrically, but I think musically, they were covered up by keyboard and all that bullshit. I like the album, but it almost sounds like to me that the record company and all those people tried to make their sound closer to other artists of today. I think a pure acoustic version of this album would sound amazing. I just don't like all the electronic shit added too it
I heard the opening chords and new it was going to be my favourite on the album. It just has the sound that makes the GGD unique. I like the other songs on the album a lot too, I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music and I respect how they've changed. They're not doing it to sell out, they're doing it because it's the kind of thing they like at the moment. This song feels like more of a throwback to the old sound around Gutterflower, mixed with their newer style and I like it a lot. I also like Reverse, Boxes and Lucky One, probably more than the rest. (although Long Way Home is really good too...) Basically I like all of them XD
Nolan Johnstone yeah, but when they released it I listened to it so much (over and over again, in fact) that I've sort of stopped listening to it for a bit so I don't make myself sick of it XD
When John talked about writing 'Big Machine' he used a generic, pre-programmed drum beat on a drum machine entitled 'disco', so his working title for 'Big Machine' was the 'disco song' before he wrote the lyrics.
As stupid as it sounds I've been looking for this song for two years. I was never able to catch it on the radio. Thank you who ever made SHAZaM!!! Feels like falling when you find your calling ...it's all I had not anymore ha..
Is this song felt me and made me click it? Cus I’m scared, a lot! Of big change in my life that I didn’t choose and I’m not ready for it even but i have to! I’m terrifying but I’ll try to be a brave, hope so....

this song.. this song .. this song has that what we call THE GOO GOO DOLLs touch!
Best one of the album imo
I hear that
The second it started i was all "THIS sounds like them".
Best song on the album. Wish it would be released as a single!
i love this song, especially the guitar solo towards the end of the song. The guitars remind me of the song big machine. They sound just like the song big machine.
"Don't be afraid, darling be brave." Thank you, Goo Goo Dolls.
I know right! I want to get that last lyric as a corresponding tattoo with my sister (we each get 3 words)
This and "Over and Over" are by far the best songs on this album.
+SmashdudeTM The Pin, and both of Takac's tunes Free of Me and Prayer in my Pocket are by far the best. So Alive isn't that bad, but Souls in the Machine sounds like the Goo Goo Dolls we have known, it sounds like a late 90's early 2000's song.
+Matthew Kowal (Matt102490) I wouldn't say it sounds like the 90's...it definitely sounds more like Magnetic if Magnetic used more guitar.
i must say, there are 2 bands that never let me down through the years, Goo Goo Dolls and Bon Jovi, their 2016 work are AMAZING! I know who i can count on to keep 80-2000s music alive
This song became my anthem for a very difficult past week. I was lifted every time I listened. Thank you.
Guys come on, I know we all miss the Superstar Car Wash days but you have to get used to the idea that their music will never sound like that again and that doesn't make their new music bad! This album is amazing and like every other GGD album it has its own style!
Exactly! Their old stuff was great and just because their new stuff doesn't have quite the same sound doesn't mean it's not good!
+J Pod People forget they have been around over 20 yrs now....they are in their 50's now...so of course their music is going to evolve and change. I love their new stuff just as I did their old music...I love the Boxes album.
@@brialynnpeyton5877 same. If you're a real GGD fan you'll know by now that every album sounds different 😂✌
@@musicgeek3151 Oh they are my favorite band!!! I can't even tell you how many times I have seen them live!
I agree bro. The Goo Goo Dolls can't sond like early days cause theres always changes in their lives. Old and new stuff are awesome.
This is the best SONG EVER! Bless you Goo Goo Dolls 🌌🦋🙏✨💜
This song speaks to my soul on another entire level. I might say it's in the top 5 songs they have ever written!!
My heart soars with this song! John will forever be my most brilliant lyrist! Amazing!!!
"Souls in the Machine" Lyrics by #GoOgooDolls†
All this time I was losing control
Chasing a life that would steal my soul
Too many faces, too many lies
Too many hands trying to steal this prize
We all got *demons*
We all get scared
On our knees hoping someone cares
And all we need is a little honesty right now
We're still waiting
We are, we are, we are the soul in the machine
We are, we are
When you look up at the bright stars
We are apart of everything
We are, we are
Every breath's a moment
Every moment is a chance to live again
This hope is burning like fire in my veins
When the fear is gone and *the truth remains*
*People are gusts*
We've got so much to give, yeah
So many dreams
So much to live for
When life gets hard, we get brave
We all get scared, it's okay
We are, we are, we are the soul in the machine
We are, we are
When you look up at the bright stars
We are apart of everything
We are, we are
Every breath's a moment
Every moment is a chance to live again
When you hear it coming
Oh it feels like falling
When you find your calling
Don't be afraid darling
I know you'll always be brave
When you hear it coming
Oh it feels like falling
When you find your calling
Don't be afraid darling
I know you'll always be brave
Can you hear it calling?
Oh it feels like falling
And then you find your calling
Don't be afraid
Darling be brave
People like us...NOT people are gusts.
Can you hear it calling
And then you find you're all in
Your music frees my mind....
love love love this band . so underrated
Siribiring I agree with you 100%. I love this band and all of their music.
TH-cam also needs a heart button, because likes cannot express how I feel listening to this.

so alive sounds nothing at all like their older work
I think the whole album doesn't sound like them. It's them lyrically, but I think musically, they were covered up by keyboard and all that bullshit. I like the album, but it almost sounds like to me that the record company and all those people tried to make their sound closer to other artists of today. I think a pure acoustic version of this album would sound amazing. I just don't like all the electronic shit added too it
I like this one, reminds be of the gutter flower style
yes...sounds like big machine.
I miss gutterflower
I didn’t know you listened to the goo goo dolls
Truth always remains…♥️
Goo Goo dolls define me....Always!!!!
Me encantaaa😍
My Boxes favorite, wish they sang it at SLC show tonight! We had a great time though, they sound amazing.
I absolutely love all the songs on Boxes!!!
its good to know the lyrics are back to the greatness they have always been. best album since gutterflower.
One thing is certain that goo goo dolls can write some of the most amazing hooks.
Goo Goo Dolls are back Rocking
I like this song 🤩 👍
When we look up at the bright stars We are apart of everything Love this song At least one of them by the Goo Goo Dolls
Good stuff, this new album must to put them on track again, that magical tasty from 90's.
Cant wait to see u this comin feb!!! 😍
they make me feel so much better :)
by far best song on the album.
Wished “Walk Away” was included on Boxes 📦Apparently a lot of other longtime fans thought so too
Easily one of my favorite songs on the new album and it has the GGD touch.
love this song..
Great song! Probably my favorite of the new album. Really love that guitar solo, it definitely should've been longer! Otherwise great song and album!
WOW this song so rocks!!! Love love
I love this song!!!
This needs to be the next single! My favorite off of Boxes.
I heard the opening chords and new it was going to be my favourite on the album. It just has the sound that makes the GGD unique. I like the other songs on the album a lot too, I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music and I respect how they've changed.

(although Long Way Home is really good too...)
Basically I like all of them XD
And over and over don't forget!!
Nolan Johnstone
yeah, but when they released it I listened to it so much (over and over again, in fact) that I've sort of stopped listening to it for a bit so I don't make myself sick of it XD
Perfect song again. Thank you for decent lyrics☆☆☆☆☆☆☆U Tube Rocks
If 'Big Machine' was consider the 'disco song', this song should be considered the 'country song'. :)
When John talked about writing 'Big Machine' he used a generic, pre-programmed drum beat on a drum machine entitled 'disco', so his working title for 'Big Machine' was the 'disco song' before he wrote the lyrics.
one of the best bands I ever heard but sadly only a few people know them
(from views)
The best song from "Boxes"...
LOVE THIS!
Already have the CD. Fantastic song writer☆☆☆Thank U Tube
this is one of my faves ;)
As stupid as it sounds I've been looking for this song for two years. I was never able to catch it on the radio. Thank you who ever made SHAZaM!!! Feels like falling when you find your calling ...it's all I had not anymore ha..
you are the best ever :* :*
wow love it😀
Say what you will about their new music they're definitely putting their heart into it. I respectfully disagree with people who say they sold out
thumbs up!!!
We are a spark of Love of a greater power We just have to see it :)
nice jam
Wow wow wow
Opening acoustic verse slightly reminiscent of Black Balloon...
+Gabriel Lagoon more like can't let it go
I like this album it sounds like christian music
Right?!
❤
They are the real band..
Hoolyy
May 7
❤🙏4
be brave!
Can someone find the chords to this song? I know the 1st chord is G or some variant.
Its tuned different like most of their songs. And its pretty simple to play
hi
Is this song felt me and made me click it? Cus I’m scared, a lot! Of big change in my life that I didn’t choose and I’m not ready for it even but i have to! I’m terrifying but I’ll try to be a brave, hope so....
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO MMMMMMMMMMMMM GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
These songs don't sound like they were written by rzeznik. Sounds like a girl wrote them.
fuck off
The only good song from this album
+Floydandsome Over and Over tho.... But other than that I see your point
