I completely agree! I've been a devout fan since their inception and I can't stand "Hate Me" or "Into the Ocean" anymore. Perhaps it's because I've heard them a million times now? Hmm 🤔 LOL. Their catalog of music is filled with one great song after another.
PREAACCHHH!!!!! God, they truly deserve so much more attention. The range of music they have is amazing. How Justin sings and expresses any of the music... it's absolutely beautiful
That is me in winter of 2021. I thought oh i love that song from back in the day called Hate Me. Then I was just like, aw shit what the helll else did these guys do in last 15 years, they are just one hit wonders. How mistaken I was. yet, if you follow media or what radio (not that I listen to radio) tells you to like. Now have a list of 25 Blue October songs full of emotion and hooks I love and that list grows.
Blue October live is the absolute most amazing experience. I have seen them...6? 7? times live now, and have tickets for another concert in September. They are at their best live, always. My favorite band by a long shot. They have such a huge catalog to listen to, and its all amazing.
Agreed❤️ was supposed to see them at Blue Ridge Rock Fest but everyone knows how that turned out. Still seeing them in Charlotte at the end of the month though!
Their live shows are like going to church. Everyone is focused on the stage and feels every word. Justin has turned into such a positive, warm person, even though some of his lyrics go really dark. He's finally found the balance and wants to spread the love.
My first show was in 2010 when I went because they were touring with Stars Of Track And Field. Fell in love with them and have seen them at least 20 times since.
@user-nv2sx8eh1w 😃ME too. Also experienced the disappointment that was BRRF and Seeing them tomorrow and bringing my 4 year old. She loves them and I have been a fan since 2007.
"When it means something to the artist it means something to the listener too." Beth, you have hit on the exact reason why Blue October core fans continue to listen. Fan since 1999
I've heard this song hundreds of times, and I still get emotional hearing it. I get emotional hearing all his songs from this time period in his life. Hell, I get emotional hearing a large portion of the songs Justin has written, knowing his past, his present, and where he wants his future to be. From being stuck in depression and drug circles, he is now healthy and has a relationship with his daughter (Blue). I shed a tear seeing them in a picture together for the first time since she was super little a few years ago. Justin Furstenfeld (and everyone in the band) has helped me through so much in my lifetime, and I can never thank them enough. I hope you keep listening to and commenting on Blue October songs, they are all so impactful.
Blue october is my favorite band hands down. Every song they've ever done is 100% real. The early stuff is about his mental and substance struggles and can get very grunge and alt rock sounding and also very dark. In recent years his music has become more peaceful as he has gained peace in his life. Justin is very very much a live performer but the studio stuff isnt as contained as you might think but compared to live it can be.
You nailed it with your comment about Justin’s live performance. The produced recordings are good but his live, especially acoustic, versions are phenomenal. He definitely puts his all into his live performances.
I've been there right up close and personal and what you hear on this, is what you get. Justin sings his soul to you and really gets you in the feels. I have broken down at a couple of his concerts, just because of how amazing he engages with his fans. His voice is like nothing I have ever heard live, and probably never hear again. The rest of the band does an amazing job as well, especially Ryan on the violin. You should check their track, Light You Up, live. This is the very first song I heard them perform and I just knew I had to see them live.
When a vocal coach reacts to the lyrics more than the voice, you know it is more than just a song. Blue October is an experience that everyone should listen to. Great reaction!
Blue October, live especially, has made me FEEL every single emotion, to my core. As another commenter said, go down the Blue October rabbit hole-grab the live performances. You won’t be disappointed. PHENOMAL writing and outpouring of emotions into the lyrics. Simply the best.
Justin is one of the most charismatic frontmen I’ve ever seen live. Every performance feels personal and intimate. In a room of hundreds if not thousands of people you feel you’re there with him and the band.
You'll be glad to know what his story recently has gotten to much better. He's sober and has full custody of the little girl he's singing about. The recent Blue October album have been amazing.
Blue october are an incredible live band - even after their issues with touring in April, they were still amazing as an acoustic set.... I actually cried when he played Calling you. First time in 7 gigs that he played that and it hit my soul on multiple levels.
Blue October is probably one of the absolute best live performancer out there (most of their recorded songs are lacking a bit though) and Justing has such a wide range of vocal tones.. its just amazing (Bleed Out in Austin comes to mind.. just a 10/10.. amazing performance) There is a reason why its in my top 5 Bands.. just pure awesomeness
A lot of his albums are raw as you’re talking about not overproduced sound better because his voice is the instrument that everybody wants to hear. Incredible backlog of music you should listen to more than just this one song.
Justin is a beautiful soul who wears his heart on his sleeve. He is amazing live and/or acoustic, and I'd be thrilled if you dove deep into their catalogue. This whole album "Any Man in America" will tear you apart. Each album is a chapter of his life full of ups and downs. I'd suggest any of their "live in Texas" or "argue with a tree" live songs, but you really can't go wrong.
THIS is probably THE best live performance EVER. This song pierces your sole! Blue October is one band I would have a ticket to see immediately if I could. Have loved them from day 1
I started listening to them alot deeper a few years ago as my life started falling apart, divorced my partner who i was with since highschool, lost the chances to see my son every day and lost who i was. But I felt an energy that helped me stand back up and weather everything thrown at me. I fell hard, but i found that no matter how hard the fall, others have fallen much farther and still stood back up. In a way, i am glad my life turned into what it was, because i found something deep that i didn't expect, and when i struggle i can come back to this and find some strength even when im exhausted. No im not an artist. But I regularly get into low places even with the progress. And i sit down in the piano and everything flows into songs that nobody else will ever hear, hours of intense notes and chords that bandage my soul piece by piece, I wish i had the power Justin has to have my music heal those around me. I know i probably over shared,but I totally get and appreciate what he continues to do. Even as things get better, he brings us on the journey of his healing. Giving us light in the dark. I will never have the confidence to share my feelings through music, but so grateful to experience this music from someone who has been through so much and used that struggle to elevate those around him.
Can't believe I've never heard or heard of these guys until now, No, I don't live under a rock. Quite a performance! Beth, you're spot on about singing and playing for catharsis.
I've traveled around the country following blue October.. since 1996... Every concert you feel this way.. we call it blue therapy.. we are all family blue family.... And this song is from any man in America.. a very painful time in his life .. but that beautiful blue eyed little girl is now a beautiful teenager and with her father and he's added another daughter and son to his family.. he just released a new album and is on tour.. I'll never understand why they aren't as popular as Taylor Swift... They are that good.. every member! If you ever need to get into your feelings... Blue October can take you on a ride you won't soon forget. #bluefamily🩵💙
I've been waiting and hoping you'd take the Blue October journey thru have so many amazing songs and justin furstenfeld has an incredible voice he sings with such emotion please check out more of them. His live performances are just special especially his acoustic versions of some of his songs
My aunt told me about this band and I listened to them loved some songs went to my first concert of theirs and blew us both away! He truly preaches his music so powerful! Best concert I’ve ever been to! And seeing him for the 3rd time in December
So glad you got to one of my favourite bands. They're all over the place musically style wise which makes them great. The string heavy songs are phenomenal.
This band are so good live, not just Justins singing but every member is on point. If you get the chance to see them go and see them. They will make you sad but at the same time so happy inside. Because we can all relate to the songs when you have a crap day.❤
You will not find anyone like Justin! The way he writes, his songs and connects with those who listen to Blue October. Go down the rabbit hole and listen to every album. You will not be disappointed!! Enthusiastic about something to the point of obsession is one of his lines and that truly represents my thoughts and feeling about Justin, each member of his band, his music and his writing. I just love them sooo much!!
Ive been lucky to have seen them 10 times. Huge here in Texas. Huge fan. Just saw them here in Dallas and they met everyone who stayed in line after the show. They are from here. They are so cool to meet as well. they have a real way of connecting with their audience in your soul and heart
Thank you for doing this and for covering your thoughts on Blue October. I have met and talked with the lead singer, Justin, a few times, and told him that they put more emotion into their music than just about anyone out there. They are also very humble and real.
They are so great! I actually heard them at a young age and with all the rock I was listening to this was an interesting gem of a band to find. Justin’s journey through life is full of so many lessons and the music is so touching. It’s really a great band that I’m glad someone I watch regularly is reacting to them finally.
A band that has truly shared every level of emotion in this life, by levels through the years. They are amazing and so thankful I got to see them once in my lifetime 💚
You definitely should see them in concert if they go near you. Many people travel far to see them. They are amazing live. Thank you for giving love to Blue October!
I also want to add that I have seen them 3 times now as of this past Saturday. I have met Justin as well and he is the most amazing performer and person ever! He gives a great show that anyone would enjoy and he’s so kind. Please give them a listen 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🥰
I loved watching your reaction and getting emotional. You are spot on, Blue October live is amazing! Songs on the album and radio are great, but nothing can compare to seeing Justin and band live. ❤️
I stumbled upon this group... "Into the ocean.." and so many other song. I love them. They were recently in Boston and couldn't go... Hope to see them one day. I am 20 years sober.
I HAVE AN ALBUM COMING OUT! And I have just realised my first cover on Spotify. Let me know what you think! And follow me on Spotify to hear the album as soon as it comes out. open.spotify.com/track/6qfvKbg6ukHJOGykx2MARB?si=8a2fa85792b14d15
You need to listen to more of their live stuff. Justen is a great live performer and puts so much emotion into his performances because all the songs are about what's gone on in his life
5:50 Ive lived a life of torment. But I was also not given any talent to sing, or write, or paint, or draw, or anything. So I've just held everything in for my 38 years of life. Finding this band has really helped me in keeping those tamed when I would come to a breaking point.
My favorite band since I first heard them in 2003. As of Friday, I've seen them live 4 times. My husband works as a stage hand and has worked their shows. Justin is amazing as an artist (the entire band is extremely talented) and is just as awesome to work around and with. And it feels like he's looking at you no matter where you are in the crowd, like it's personal. Their music keeps me alive sometimes
Blue October is a Texas band…I have been following them here since the 90s. I saw them just last night in concert again. I don’t know how many times I have been now.
They’re my favorite band since I can remember, I’m always listening because Justin’s voice is one of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard and the lyrics are really profound. I’m really glad you’re reacting to their music.
I like how one minute of the song makes thought about so much more than the song is telling. That is the reason a like blue October so much. It puts you in that state of mind that you can see a whole lot more than before.
Blue October, is absolouty criminally Underated. They have been a huge part of my life, the mix of the music and lyrics go to the the Deepest parts of the soul.
I like many others have met Justin and the rest of the band. They are super down to earth and are just like you and I. Really good people with normal lives, and normal problems and doesn't think they are better than anyone else.
I've come full circle seen them live two times. I met the band at the meet and greet befor the show. Talked with the guys and Justin and explained how and why The Worry List hit so close to home. Plus the guys took a group photo with me. They were awesome and Justin said "Sorry man."It's all good now I said plus your music helps thanks so much. I love his happier new stuff too!
Porque no veo muchos vocal coach reaccionando a este tremendo artista, se deja la piel en cada canción, merece su sitio junto a los grandes, gracias ❤❤
You are not wrong, he is a very physical live performer. Always has been. I have seen many live Blue shows and it never disappoints. I am #Blueloveforlife
I've seen Blue October several times in smaller venues. Justin is amazing. The whole band is great, but there's something about his raw emotions that gets me at my core. I'm also in recovery, and we both struggled during similar periods of our lives. My daughter buys us tickets every time he's playing in town. We'll see him again in September again - VIP tickets this time though :)
I love Blue October. One of my first concerts and it was the best. So raw and Justin is amazing live. I have to see them again. Please do more LIVES of theirs 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
ปีที่แล้ว
Blue is my absolute favorite band. I've been seeing them live since 2009 and I have their lyrics tattooed on my arms. I always describe them as "pure, raw emotion." Hidden track "it's just me" hits wayyyyy different then any song I've ever heard.
Thank you for reacting to Blue October. They're amazing live, but Justin always reels you in. Amazing. "Fear" is my favorite though I couldn't say which version I like best. The acoustic with just Justin is amazing.
I love that it moved you to tears! Justin is such an Angel!!!! I’d love to see u react to a song from foiled or consent to treatment I love seeing his musical evolution. I always make sure to see them live when they come to town. Get the vip guys! It’s so worth it
The best song if you want raw emotions "worry list" he did on vh1 the way he Carry's the song lived the song and the real emotion from the host. I love Justin's music
My favorite band 🖤 I wish people who are reacting to great music like this,.would actually listen to the whole song and THEN comment. I feel like pausing throughout is like interrupting the emotion the song is meant to give.
If you listen deep down and really get to the bottom, you’ll notice the song changes and goes in stages of the relationship. So the beginning was “just the 2 of us, the start of our show” that’s him and his ex and then it progress into “now it’s just the 3 of us” it’s ever changing and I love it. This album came out right when I had my 1st daughter and it really got my through. I used to put her to sleep to Hate Me.
I envy you discovering Blue October. Your reaction as he began to rev up the engines to the first "Stay" was great. Justin's emotional range is unsurpassed. Two performance that really grabbed me when I first discovered them were Hate Me th-cam.com/video/Y3F3AcnGFWw/w-d-xo.html and I Hope You're Happy th-cam.com/video/NKRldPkXgeI/w-d-xo.html Spend some time watching their live performances, both with the full band and just Justin and his acoustic guitar, where he often explains why he wrote different songs. Also read the comments on their videos and how their music has touched the lives of so many people. There is an old joke about ham and eggs: The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed. Most singers are "involved" with their music. Justin is "committed".
![Blue October - Feel Again (Stay) [REACTION]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/BrKdm1TSt_s/mqdefault.jpg)
In my opinion, blue october is criminally under rated everyone only remembers them for hate me, but they have such a wide catalog of incredible songs
Agree 100%
I completely agree! I've been a devout fan since their inception and I can't stand "Hate Me" or "Into the Ocean" anymore. Perhaps it's because I've heard them a million times now? Hmm 🤔 LOL. Their catalog of music is filled with one great song after another.
Absolutely criminally underrated. I truly don’t understand if. They’ve been my favorite band for 16 years and not a single album has ever let me down.
PREAACCHHH!!!!! God, they truly deserve so much more attention. The range of music they have is amazing. How Justin sings and expresses any of the music... it's absolutely beautiful
Agree. This band has been my favorite since I first heard them 20-21 years ago 💙
You MUST go down the Blue October rabbit hole. They are AMAZING.
Yes!
That is me in winter of 2021. I thought oh i love that song from back in the day called Hate Me. Then I was just like, aw shit what the helll else did these guys do in last 15 years, they are just one hit wonders. How mistaken I was. yet, if you follow media or what radio (not that I listen to radio) tells you to like. Now have a list of 25 Blue October songs full of emotion and hooks I love and that list grows.
Totally amazing.
Be sure to check out his brothers band Harvard of the south. You’ll get to hear Justins full vocal limitations and you won’t be let down. 😊
She must
I'm a simple guy. I see Blue October in the title. I click on video. Justin is a huge inspiration to so many people including myself.
Blue October….simply the best band in the world….those who don’t know them lose a lot 💙💙💙
Blue October live is the absolute most amazing experience. I have seen them...6? 7? times live now, and have tickets for another concert in September. They are at their best live, always. My favorite band by a long shot. They have such a huge catalog to listen to, and its all amazing.
Agreed❤️ was supposed to see them at Blue Ridge Rock Fest but everyone knows how that turned out. Still seeing them in Charlotte at the end of the month though!
For real I’ve seen them 9 times with my wife since 2016. Seeing them live was life changing
Their live shows are like going to church. Everyone is focused on the stage and feels every word. Justin has turned into such a positive, warm person, even though some of his lyrics go really dark. He's finally found the balance and wants to spread the love.
My first show was in 2010 when I went because they were touring with Stars Of Track And Field. Fell in love with them and have seen them at least 20 times since.
@user-nv2sx8eh1w 😃ME too. Also experienced the disappointment that was BRRF and Seeing them tomorrow and bringing my 4 year old. She loves them and I have been a fan since 2007.
Fear, bleed out,the worry list. All live versions unbelievable
As is "Light it Up"
Chameleon boy, For my brother and Hate me always gets me
I Hope You’re Happy, Moving On (So Long) and Into The Ocean are also great.
I'm a new fan, I just went to my 2nd show in Sept...I went nuts when FEAR was played! So good
Schizophrenia is a great song as well. Clumsy Card House and and anything off of History for sell and Foiled.
No artist has ever made me FEEL quite like Blue October does
"When it means something to the artist it means something to the listener too." Beth, you have hit on the exact reason why Blue October core fans continue to listen. Fan since 1999
I’ve seen them perform 5 times so far. They are amazing live. Justin has such an amazing vocal style and Ryan’s violin just gives me goosebumps.
They are coming to Texas in August man i can’t wait to go 💪💪
I've heard this song hundreds of times, and I still get emotional hearing it. I get emotional hearing all his songs from this time period in his life. Hell, I get emotional hearing a large portion of the songs Justin has written, knowing his past, his present, and where he wants his future to be. From being stuck in depression and drug circles, he is now healthy and has a relationship with his daughter (Blue).

Justin Furstenfeld (and everyone in the band) has helped me through so much in my lifetime, and I can never thank them enough. I hope you keep listening to and commenting on Blue October songs, they are all so impactful.
A men to that
Preach it... nothing but truth here...
Blue october is my favorite band hands down. Every song they've ever done is 100% real.

In recent years his music has become more peaceful as he has gained peace in his life. Justin is very very much a live performer but the studio stuff isnt as contained as you might think but compared to live it can be.
Such an underrated band, both in lyric and talent. Justin just takes my emotions beyond with his storytelling voice.
You nailed it with your comment about Justin’s live performance. The produced recordings are good but his live, especially acoustic, versions are phenomenal. He definitely puts his all into his live performances.
I've been there right up close and personal and what you hear on this, is what you get. Justin sings his soul to you and really gets you in the feels.

Fear gets me every single time

Last show in Austin I was bawling like a baby! Our entire section was 😅
When a vocal coach reacts to the lyrics more than the voice, you know it is more than just a song. Blue October is an experience that everyone should listen to.
Great reaction!
Blue October, live especially, has made me FEEL every single emotion, to my core. As another commenter said, go down the Blue October rabbit hole-grab the live performances. You won’t be disappointed. PHENOMAL writing and outpouring of emotions into the lyrics. Simply the best.

Blue October is probably one of the absolute best live performancer out there (most of their recorded songs are lacking a bit though) and Justing has such a wide range of vocal tones.. its just amazing (Bleed Out in Austin comes to mind.. just a 10/10.. amazing performance)
There is a reason why its in my top 5 Bands.. just pure awesomeness
Wasn't it?!?
I was so happy to see you react to this band and this song. I’ve never heard a singer display emotion as well as Justin. 💙💙💙
The only other artist I have ever seen display this level of emotion during a live performance was Tim Minchin, he could not even finish his song.
Justin has one of the most underrated voices of our generation. It’s unique, beautiful and haunting.
❤
Blue October Live is a Spiritual Experience
Yes they are!!
A lot of his albums are raw as you’re talking about not overproduced sound better because his voice is the instrument that everybody wants to hear. Incredible backlog of music you should listen to more than just this one song.
Justin is a beautiful soul who wears his heart on his sleeve. He is amazing live and/or acoustic, and I'd be thrilled if you dove deep into their catalogue.

He RIPS, your words, recorded and live.... you've just heard the most incredible artist ever.
My aunt told me about this band and I listened to them loved some songs went to my first concert of theirs and blew us both away! He truly preaches his music so powerful! Best concert I’ve ever been to! And seeing him for the 3rd time in December
So glad you got to one of my favourite bands. They're all over the place musically style wise which makes them great. The string heavy songs are phenomenal.
He puts that much passion in every song he sings!
Ive been a Blue October fan for almost 20 years now. They are amazing. Love watching people discover them for the first time.
A sledgehammer of talent and raw emotion. A Blessing from Texas
This band are so good live, not just Justins singing but every member is on point. If you get the chance to see them go and see them. They will make you sad but at the same time so happy inside. Because we can all relate to the songs when you have a crap day.❤
You will not find anyone like Justin! The way he writes, his songs and connects with those who listen to Blue October. Go down the rabbit hole and listen to every album. You will not be disappointed!! Enthusiastic about something to the point of obsession is one of his lines and that truly represents my thoughts and feeling about Justin, each member of his band, his music and his writing. I just love them sooo much!!
All of his singing is from the heart.
Nail on the head. Each Blue October show is different, I’ve even seen him sing entirely different verses to recorded songs.
Ive been lucky to have seen them 10 times. Huge here in Texas. Huge fan. Just saw them here in Dallas and they met everyone who stayed in line after the show. They are from here. They are so cool to meet as well. they have a real way of connecting with their audience in your soul and heart
Thank you for doing this and
for covering your thoughts on
Blue October.
I have met and talked with
the lead singer, Justin, a few
times, and told him that
they put more emotion into their music than just about anyone out there. They are also very humble and real.
They are so great! I actually heard them at a young age and with all the rock I was listening to this was an interesting gem of a band to find.
Justin’s journey through life is full of so many lessons and the music is so touching.
It’s really a great band that I’m glad someone I watch regularly is reacting to them finally.

Amazing cover Beth. Hope some day we'll also see a videoperformance of the song.
Can't wait to hear more in the future.
How i can donate and suggest a song to react?
You need to listen to more of their live stuff. Justen is a great live performer and puts so much emotion into his performances because all the songs are about what's gone on in his life

Justin is amazing as an artist (the entire band is extremely talented) and is just as awesome to work around and with. And it feels like he's looking at you no matter where you are in the crowd, like it's personal. Their music keeps me alive sometimes
i couldnt have said it better. i grew up with this band.
This band has been on the level of humanity since the very start
Blue October is a Texas band…I have been following them here since the 90s. I saw them just last night in concert again. I don’t know how many times I have been now.
I've been a fan of Blue October since they first started and watched them play live several times and they are Absolutely Amazing!
In live they are so much better. You can feel the songs!
They’re my favorite band since I can remember, I’m always listening because Justin’s voice is one of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard and the lyrics are really profound. I’m really glad you’re reacting to their music.
I like how one minute of the song makes thought about so much more than the song is telling. That is the reason a like blue October so much. It puts you in that state of mind that you can see a whole lot more than before.
One of my absolute favorite bands! So much talent!! Very under-rated
Best live performers. We travel to see them quite a bit. Will be driving to Chicago in March :)❤
It was so great watching you "get it" they are amazing...live concerts like you have never experienced!! Great video
Blue is an amazing artist. I will never let go !!!
One of the most emotional songs from them is "The Sound of Pulling Heaven Down"
Its a love song that carries so much more than you rver expected.
Their live performance are amazing! Small venues and stronger vibes
i’ve grown up with this band, im so glad it’s getting recognized. incredibly underrated
Blue October, is absolouty criminally Underated. They have been a huge part of my life, the mix of the music and lyrics go to the the Deepest parts of the soul.
I like many others have met Justin and the rest of the band. They are super down to earth and are just like you and I. Really good people with normal lives, and normal problems and doesn't think they are better than anyone else.
I've come full circle seen them live two times. I met the band at the meet and greet befor the show. Talked with the guys and Justin and explained how and why The Worry List hit so close to home. Plus the guys took a group photo with me. They were awesome and Justin said "Sorry man."It's all good now I said plus your music helps thanks so much. I love his happier new stuff too!
All of thier shows are like this. They are phenomenal!
Seen Blue October for the first time last year was a really good show
Went to see them in Milwaukee a few years back, and they 10000% are incredible. Exact 1 to 1 to what you hear on their albums. They are unbelievable.
Porque no veo muchos vocal coach reaccionando a este tremendo artista, se deja la piel en cada canción, merece su sitio junto a los grandes, gracias ❤❤
I loved to see your genuine reaction to this, I love this band and they truly are a beautifully experience live.
You got it right--He is an amazing "live" performer. Jump into their catalog--you'll be amazed at how amazing Blue October is.
Saw them 2 months ago, in Lubbock, Tx. One of the best live performances I could ever experience. I'm forever a fan.!💙
There coming to irving in a few days😅 id love to go but tickets cost a good chunk
You are not wrong, he is a very physical live performer. Always has been. I have seen many live Blue shows and it never disappoints. I am #Blueloveforlife
I've seen Blue October several times in smaller venues. Justin is amazing. The whole band is great, but there's something about his raw emotions that gets me at my core. I'm also in recovery, and we both struggled during similar periods of our lives. My daughter buys us tickets every time he's playing in town. We'll see him again in September again - VIP tickets this time though :)
Blue October lighted up my darkest days. I feel I evolved side by side with them and changed as their music did
9:53
When the tension builds up, and then expelling of all that energy.. a crescendo that will forever live with me...
Huge Blue October fan, thank you for your analysis of this beautiful song.💙
I love Blue October. One of my first concerts and it was the best. So raw and Justin is amazing live. I have to see them again. Please do more LIVES of theirs 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Blue is my absolute favorite band. I've been seeing them live since 2009 and I have their lyrics tattooed on my arms. I always describe them as "pure, raw emotion."
Hidden track "it's just me" hits wayyyyy different then any song I've ever heard.
I found them after their first album and have been to over 25 shows. They never disappoint
Thank you for reacting to Blue October. They're amazing live, but Justin always reels you in. Amazing. "Fear" is my favorite though I couldn't say which version I like best. The acoustic with just Justin is amazing.
You dont get anyone more musicly talented than Justin! Every SINGLE one of his songs are amazing!
I love that it moved you to tears!
Justin is such an Angel!!!!
I’d love to see u react to a song from foiled or consent to treatment
I love seeing his musical evolution. I always make sure to see them live when they come to town. Get the vip guys! It’s so worth it
Listen to Fear live........simply uplifting
TYSM for reviewing my favorite band!! Been following them since 2007
Been my favorite band sine i was 8...im 27 now. I LOVE BLUE. lyrics are absolutely beautiful.
He is amazing live. One of my favorite bands and singer ever
The best song if you want raw emotions "worry list" he did on vh1 the way he Carry's the song lived the song and the real emotion from the host. I love Justin's music
Love the encouragement and support you provide for your audience. Keep up the great work!
This is one of the songs/bands I've ALWAYS wanted to see you react to this makes me so damn happy
My favorite band 🖤 I wish people who are reacting to great music like this,.would actually listen to the whole song and THEN comment. I feel like pausing throughout is like interrupting the emotion the song is meant to give.
I"ve seen them live man, man, many times and it's different each time and WIDE OPEN! You'd enjoy yourself!
If you listen deep down and really get to the bottom, you’ll notice the song changes and goes in stages of the relationship. So the beginning was “just the 2 of us, the start of our show” that’s him and his ex and then it progress into “now it’s just the 3 of us” it’s ever changing and I love it. This album came out right when I had my 1st daughter and it really got my through. I used to put her to sleep to Hate Me.
I envy you discovering Blue October. Your reaction as he began to rev up the engines to the first "Stay" was great. Justin's emotional range is unsurpassed. Two performance that really grabbed me when I first discovered them were Hate Me th-cam.com/video/Y3F3AcnGFWw/w-d-xo.html and I Hope You're Happy th-cam.com/video/NKRldPkXgeI/w-d-xo.html Spend some time watching their live performances, both with the full band and just Justin and his acoustic guitar, where he often explains why he wrote different songs. Also read the comments on their videos and how their music has touched the lives of so many people.
There is an old joke about ham and eggs: The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed. Most singers are "involved" with their music. Justin is "committed".
I'm glad you picked this particular version.
