This video makes me cry but it also gives me hope. The first time I saw it, one of my best friends had just committed suicide. I was so sad watching the things happening in the video to all the people and the guy climbing the building. I thought he was about to jump until something as simple and precious as a bird landing on his hand brought joy and color back into his world. I love songs/videos with powerful messages. I have major depression. Suicide is NOT the solution. Life gets better!
I was born in 1962 and turned 62 July 2024.ear buds in blasting that music and locked the world outside. Great tunes. The late 70s 80'S 90's were the best many great memories. Back when things made sense. Still here September 2024.i can relate to this song I've been there. Don't know why!
This is a great song. I heard it when I was out last night in NYC. Sitting & listening to this was a sureal experience. I was completely captivated. One of the best songs of the 90s.
Great video. The moral, nothing in this world matters but Love. And love comes from Almighty God. The world is a mindless rat race, and without Gods love, you will surely die.
I remember the world in 1995. I still have flip phone. It does not connect to car, I am unplugged while driving. Pre cell phones car phones, Pagers, and pay phones. The Good old days. Thank for the World I know, in 1995. Mazzy IL USA
@@michellejaggers6732 I feel you. Please consider therapy, a 12 step group or some outside help. They work. There are people who care even if it don't fell like it. Many of us cannot do it alone. Speaking from the choir.
@@jerryd1109 thanks 👍 man, everyone is different everyone has, feelings, love and compassion for a human being, we are all humans and their are, good and bad, but no one wants to be with a bad person/ people who doesn't care about anyone, but themselves, they don't have compassion for others, but they will cry for help, if it was their family members, or loved ones, especially they wouldn't want anything bad to happen to their family, the bad, people needs to understand, we all been through trials and tribulation, pain and suffering in, our lives, but don't need to take it, out on someone else, because we didn't have anything to do with your problems, need to get help, and counseling, take care of yourself, and your mental health as well.
I'm a father to 3 amazing kids, and i cried listening to.this song, they why was i crying? So.i told them: this is the world we live in and, when I'm gone i hope it gets better for you three.JUST HAVE HOPE
Has our conscience shown? Has the sweet breeze blown? Has all kindness gone? Hope still lingers on I drink myself of new-found pity Sitting alone in New York City And I don't know why Are we listening? To hymns of offering? Have we eyes to see Love is gathering? All the words that I've been reading Have now started the act of bleeding Into one, into one So I walk up on high And I step to the edge To see my world below And I laugh at myself While the tears roll down 'Cause it's the world I know Oh. It's the world I know I drink myself of new-found pity Sitting alone in New York City And I don't know why Don't know why So I walk up on high And I step to the edge To see my world below And I laugh at myself While the tears roll down 'Cause it's the world I know Oh. It's the world I know Yeah, I walk up on high And I step to the edge To see my world below And I laugh at myself While the tears roll down 'Cause it's the world I know Oh. It's the world I know
I love this song. I didn't fully appreciate it at the time, as I was very young. But each scene in the video has a powerful meaning: The sad man feeling like he is trapped in a filthy city, full of routine, surrounded by other lost people.....yet he sees a homeless woman ask for help, no one helps her, not even him. As he sits down, he realizes no one helped....& feels bad that he didn't, then looks sadder still when someone tramples the dandelion that struggled to grow in a cracked sidewalk. He reads horrific news stories, it tips his sadness over the edge,....& decides to end it. But as he finally begins to let himself fall.....a bird just lands on his hand. It looks peaceful, utterly calm. He looks awed & startled & happy. I always thought the bird landing on his arm was God or an angel, letting him know its all right to stay....that they are 'seen', they're important. The bird is showing its trust of him also, a rare blessing he sees how all these events connect: The bagel he bought....he can feed his new friend. Ants are helped too. He realizes lastly that humans 'look like ants' from his vantage point, which may be how God looks down on us......that no matter if its ants or birds or humans......we're ALL important in His eyes :) So he laughs joyously at this realization & 'feeds' humans his money....& is comforted.
It's too bad the seventies.The eighties and the nineties are all gone.Such great music back in those days. Music these days are not the same the newcomers is changing it all.
Collective Soul's 'The World I Know' brings back memories of my mom. When I was 6 in 1997, I'd beg her to play Spice Girls instead she would always give in and play my Spice Girls Casette lol, but now, at 33, I understand why she loved this song, After she passed in 2005, I bought the CD a couple years ago as a keepsake. Whenever I play it, I try to hold back tears and I crack a little smile. I get why she loved it. This was one of her favorite bands. 💙
OH my..!! Coming across this amazing song after more than 20 years. I used to listen to it as a teen on my Walkman on my way to university. Although I was a metalhead, I loved it secretly. What's more, I recorded on a cassette after waiting many days to be played on the radio ... regrettably, I didn't know at that time what the band was or what the song was.
Yes guys, life always gets better no matter how much it sucks at the moment!! Great song with an awesome message. Hang tight because your life is worth everything!❤
Me recuerda a mi hijo este video el hablaba perfectamente el idioma Inglés. y me traducía la letra de la música a el le encantaba esta música en MTV. En los 90 lamentablemente el murió en el 2002.y solo tenía 22 añitos. 😢😢😢😢😢😢 Así que cuando escucho esta y otras músicas de estos grupos de aquel tiempo yo me pongo a llorar mucho. Que nostalgia!! Ahora estamos en el 2024😢😢😢
This song will forever be dedicated to my old friend Christopher Thomas Narcy. One of the few songs to come on in the work trucks, on 95.9 WRAT here on the Jersey Shore, that absolutely turns my day. Love and miss you buddy
Less than a million views? After all these years? This song is ...... I don't have the words to describe. Which is saying alot. I once started a streetfight in London with just my mouth.
At 2:09, when you see that Ross is sitting in the seat on the buss next to Ed; it reminds me of that male bonding moment the two of them must have had, when they knew Ed's wife was having Ross's baby. This song is so amazing.
I have to admit that this version is SUPERB!!!! AND I hope I am not the only man crying. It is so profound that it gets to the depths of the soul. Thanks for posting this video.
Love this video because it shows the love of god ,when you're world is black and white and you wanna end it all with god he can change your world to color and ease your pain in miraculous ways
This song has been on my play list of whatever kind, tape, radio, CD, streaming, etc. since 1995. Like a wonderful movie I watch over and over again, this video never ceases to comfort me. It is a timeless message, lyric and performance that never gets old. I love these guys - can't wait to see them in concert when they get out here to the west coast of US! (have even thought of traveling to IN to see them this tour...why not?!?)
I remember when this video first came out. I thought it was so powerful, and even after all the years its lost NONE of its emotional power. Gets to me every single time I see it! Awesome video, makes you really 'think'. I also thought the actor in this video did a terrific job, he was so believable!
This song makes me contemplate whats going on in the world and specifically in my life. Love it, any music that can send a message and sound good is a work of art.
Just hang on...Stay strong...The message this song brought so many years ago...blows my mind! It hurts an its beautiful. But at the end....Brilliant! Thank you so much
Are we listening? Have we eyes to see? It's hard when we've been blinded by greed, aggression, and insensitivity. Great song about the danger of not being connected.
Why do young people even consider suicide ???, my father was a very hot blooded person, scareless and didn't mind to die young, but he got to live many years and at the last days when he was very sick with a terminal disease he fought to keep living, he didn't want to go, he told me that he learned to love being alive and thanked the lord for letting him live that long, he was 85 years old, i dig it, as you get older you get to love everything around you, specially people.

I agree. I like rock too, but more into pop music. Wanna be dubbed as "Son of pop"
This is a great song. I heard it when I was out last night in NYC. Sitting & listening to this was a sureal experience. I was completely captivated. One of the best songs of the 90s.
Hell yeah
If you've been there, you know. This song perfectly describes the hurt. I pray and give thanks every day that I survive..
Kept me off the edge
If you only know the hurt I am going to everyday. I just remain strong for myself.

Coulda killed someone you should be ashamed, instead you think you're special and that some ancient space wizard protected you?
Suicide, something I've delt with , I'm glad I have Jesus Christ in my life, Cheech

At least we can say we were there. It was the best time, truly.
Your time is always the best, its your comfortable place once its gone!
I watch this video quite a bit, just to remind myself. Praise Collective Soul for this.
Praise The Lord, only He gets the Glory. Stay blessed
one of the best songs of the 90s
Has our conscience shown?
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on
I drink myself of new-found pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don't know why
Are we listening?
To hymns of offering?
Have we eyes to see
Love is gathering?
All the words that I've been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
Into one, into one
So I walk up on high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down
'Cause it's the world I know
Oh. It's the world I know
I drink myself of new-found pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don't know why
Don't know why
So I walk up on high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down
'Cause it's the world I know
Oh. It's the world I know
Yeah, I walk up on high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down
'Cause it's the world I know
Oh. It's the world I know
👍🏻👍🏻
❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This song and video are so deep on so many levels
It goes from the darkness of black and white to the hope of colors, so good!
Cried. Again. Thanks.

A true classic
This song is beautifly sad and inspirational at the same time. Truly excellent band.
Absolutely a classic. And this song has kept me alive. More than once.
wow. even after all these years i shed some tears. bloody well done.
This song is always therapeutic for me twenty years ago sitting in a park on K St or sitting in the woods thinking about my life's flowing rythm...
Great band and music that touches your heart and soul. 2024 has been rough year and looking forward to 2025 in positive way for a change😊
definitely one of my favorite songs
One of my favorite videos. This song is always great, soothing rock sound.
Still absolutely amazing. 1995 and still as fresh as if it were cut yesterday.
Awesome song when you feel like the ratrace is about to run you over.
collective soul kicks so much ass. after hearing them for the first time, i realized that i still had a lot to live for.
Quem nunca se sentiu assim, porém como no clip tem um sinal NÃO DESISTA JESUS TE AMA ❤

Suicide is never an opinion keep pushing threw the pain no matter what !!!!!
Yes.. thank you
one of my favorite music videos from 1995.
Moving song. Touches my soul...so many suffering
So awesome of a video. I didn't know this was what the song was about 'til just now. Great job guys and keep up the great work! *****
This song is beautiful. Seriously, David Cook has made me appreciate it even more.
I remember when this video first came out. I thought it was so powerful, and even after all the years its lost NONE of its emotional power. Gets to me every single time I see it!
Awesome video, makes you really 'think'.
I also thought the actor in this video did a terrific job, he was so believable!
This song reminds me of my son when he was trying to find his self.
i totally agree! me myself being an 80's kid, lol. we have carlos santana, but hes been out forever! he just keeps getting better and better though.
what a spiritual song....Ed Roland HAS collected ALL the souls!!!
This song makes me contemplate whats going on in the world and specifically in my life. Love it, any music that can send a message and sound good is a work of art.
Just hang on...Stay strong...The message this song brought so many years ago...blows my mind! It hurts an its beautiful. But at the end....Brilliant! Thank you so much
Are we listening? Have we eyes to see? It's hard when we've been blinded by greed, aggression, and insensitivity. Great song about the danger of not being connected.
Brings me back to 10th grade, riding in my first car. All those great tunes and times I took for granted........
this song almost makes me want to believe in God.
It's the way around., GOD doesn't believe in you!!!.
The pain still there ! The memories hunt me for good .But through the grace of God Almighty I endure the pain inside me ..
Why do young people even consider suicide ???, my father was a very hot blooded person, scareless and didn't mind to die young, but he got to live many years and at the last days when he was very sick with a terminal disease he fought to keep living, he didn't want to go, he told me that he learned to love being alive and thanked the lord for letting him live that long, he was 85 years old, i dig it, as you get older you get to love everything around you, specially people.
I hope you never experience what so many do. It’s not something you plan on or want and it’s not just young people.
… my pain lessens just listening to this … I hope yours does too
amazing video
15yrs later and we are still here
I am mainly a 60's, 70's, 80's guy so I never really paid attention to the lyrics to this song until now. I'm glad I did.
All I needed to hear from this song was it's AMAZING guitar intro and tears were welling in my eyes while driving, NOW THAT IS A GOOD SONG! ❤❤❤❤
I love this band❤ Touches my heart❤heart collecting souls
