I hope one of you reads this. Please, one of the remaining members of the band, or someone who can get a message back to the band. I wish to thank you. You created our song. Calling You was the song my husband sent me nearly a decade ago when we were new. He lived in Indiana and I in Michigan so there was much Skyping, many emails, so many links exchanged. He sent me Calling You as one of his early proclamations. The lyrics fit him to an essential, perfect tee. I adored the song, listened to it over and again. It became Our Song. Forward nearly five years to me in a sterile, bright ICU room, holding Aric's hand, stroking the back of it, feeling the veins and knuckles. Or a hand on his leg or foot, eyes moving over his face, up to the monitor that measured the pressure in his brain, eyes back to his face, singing. I softly sang over and again, "I can't be-lieve you actually picked meee." Over, the song, the lyrics from me to him, so apt. So perfect. "I'm so in love with you, they can't take that away." He died that day, and Calling You went deep inside to my core where it rested with the essential bits of me that survived his death. I was destroyed by his death except for those small portions that lingered near my core. Slowly emerging, rebuilding, recovering, I reclaimed a lot of myself. Most of myself. There are still things, places, activities, too painful to endure. This was one of them. Until today. This morning I listened to the entire song. Sobbing, smiling, looking at his photo a blur from tears. Click to replay. A third time. Rocking to the music, volume up in my headphones. Over and again. I"d asked him to send me a song this morning. He does that, sends me songs. I'll wake up with a song playing in my head. This morning I asked for one, smiling, waiting quietly. This one began to play. Oh shit, really? "Th-that one?" Okay. So I listened. I was able to! This song remains our truth. The love has never wavered. It never will. I'm so in love with him, he so in love with, no one, nothing will take that away. Not even death. Thank you Blue October for creating our truth sung to perfection.

Marianne Wade It makes me so happy that this song could touch you and your husband in such a beautiful, heart warming way. You are completely right by saying nothing can ever take him away. Sending lots of love and happiness your way from NC!

Blue October is really such an unappreciated band. I am just now rediscovering how much I like them. Putting a number of their older tracks at the top of my playlists again. Almost like discovering new music. So much passion and emotion in their music. I need to see them in concert for sure one day!
It's something I can't quite explain I'm so in love with you You'll never take that away And if I've said a hundred times before Expect a thousand more You'll never take that away So expect me to be Calling you to see If you're okay when I'm not around Asking "if you love me" I love the way you make it sound Calling you to see Do I try too hard to make you smile? To make a smile Well I will keep calling you to see If you're sleeping are you're dreaming If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me I can't believe you actually picked me I thought that the world had lost it's sway (It's so hard sometimes) Then I fell in love with you (Then came you) And you took that away (It's not so difficult The world is not so difficult) You take away the old Show me the new And I feel like I can fly when I stand next to you So while I'm on this phone A hundred miles from home I'll take the words you gave me and send them back to you I only want to see If you're okay when I'm not around Asking "if you love me" I love the way you make it sound Calling you to see Do I try too hard to make you smile? To make a smile Well I will keep calling you to see If you're sleeping are you're dreaming If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me I can't believe you actually picked me Well I will keep calling you to see If you're sleeping are you're dreaming If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me I can't believe you actually picked me Well I will keep calling you to see If you're sleeping are you're dreaming If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me I can't believe you actually picked me Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh
Rest in Peace my love, Mark. 7/1/2010. I shared this song with my baby in March of this year, made his day. Listened to it almost everyday feeling on top of the world with him until the very day he passed. This song will ALWAYS be a memory of him, makes me cry every time I listen to it now. It's so beautiful.

In 2005, I was browsing through songs suggested to me on KZread and I found this video. I am thankful I did because I became a fan for life!! Thank you!!! One of the greatest bands ever. I also love my Blue Family!!

KZread came into existence in 2005 and I don't think it had a recommended list yet. Maybe you are thinking of a later year!
When this song came out in 2007, I sent it to my best friend in high school via MySpace message. We ended up having a 10 year relationship and it was some of the best years of my life. I’m 31 now with a family of my own and this is the first time I’ve heard this song all the way through in years. I’ve happily moved on, but there’s a part of me that will never stop loving him and what we had together. Good times in this life ❤️

It was a song for his daughter.
this song and record is one of the few that makes me want to just lay in bed and listen to every word
My boyfriend is going into the air force, he puts songs on the favorites on this youtube account so I can go listen to them, and he put this song on here.It's going to be a rough 6 months that he will be away.I love you Phil :)
I used to listen to this song for my first love... she was amazing, and I couldn't believe she could love me. This song really did express my sentiments quite perfectly. The awe of being "picked", your craving to know everything in their head asleep or awake... and for some of us the blatant overuse of text messages. ; D Love was certainly sweet...
This song has been playing in my mind for several days now. Glad I found it again.
The love of my life won't be home for 16yrs this is our song on the days I miss him the most i listen to this on repeat🥰 I know he feels the same.. our love story came outta nowhere nd that's the best kind. Hopefully I get to see them in concert this April ♥️♥️
I love how this song starts off very mellow then just keeps progressing along musically until it explodes into pure rock n roll!
This the greatest Blue October song to me. and that new one Should be loved might be equal to this one! whoohoo
I heard this song everyday with my mom driving me to school in 6th grade. Love it still. Good times

This version is actually just cheap cgi with fake-fancy visual effects. The fucking video doesn't even correlate to the message. Its crap. The other version had real scenery, real actors, real clothing, real insturments, real recording, and real feelings. This is literally a selling-out version of his original authentic video.
I swear, Blue October always writes the best love songs.
Seen them last night in Delaware! Awesome show...
every time i hear this song it reminds me of the girl im crazy in love wit for the past 3.5 years..infact i fell in love wit her while listening to this...and i dont know how there are 24 heartless people who hav disliked this lovely song...i fell sry for these guys.
11 is so young, I'd do anything to be 11-16 again. Best times of my life were school, friends, and no work and bills :D
This is the better of the two music videos for this song
David si estas leyendo esto, eres la jodida ley!, Gracias por revivirme y construir todo juntos♥️
This is the original video from when the song first came out. I first saw it on OnDemand from Comcast for free, from the Music Choice section, when American Wedding came out. I am more partial to this version because it seems more rocker love song, and a hell of a lot less like a sappy song about creating a family.
you'll never take that away !!!!!!!!!! try to do it and i ll keep calling yu
gorgeous song. it makes me so happy. can't wait to see Blue October October 7th
I cant believe you actually picked me....💖
My first wife passed away at the early age of 36. I've met someone and we've been dating for 3 years now. She's the best and looking forward to spending the next 50 years with her!
This is my song to myself. Love yourself before you can love someone else this deeply.
this song reminds me of my friend who killed himself before i got to tell him i love him..it makes me sad.. but it really is a great song

We danced at our wedding to this song when you were mine... now you've started your life with a new husband and child and even though I know I will pass from this world alone,, I still wish you all the best on your journey.
This song is just so beautiful... "well i will keep calling you to see if you're sleepin are you dreamin and if you're dreamin are you dreamin of me"

Video is all filler but the message in this song is amazing. If I wrote a song about how I feel about the most special person in the world it would be something like this.
Dude this is like a precursor to the Leave Out All The Rest music video
this song speaks to me personily i used to feel the same way the singer does then i woke up to realty....this song makes me regretful for the shit i did the effort i put into it but over all i luv the song still.
Ill always love my ninapatutti.
i can't stop listening to this, it makes me cry! In the best possible way.
Heard this song for the first time, just a few days ago. Wonderful. 💗
This video always reminded me of the movie Dark Star. Great song.
this is the type of song that makes you miss someone i hear this song and it makes me think of one girl i lost and i will never see again makes me sad each time i hear it but i hear it just to remind me of what i did have with that special person now we lead separate lives both married with kids to others i will never forget what we had and what this song meant to us
i sware the god that i met him and talked to him and im only eleven and its breath taking talking to him he is one of the nicest guys in the world
Blue October fan for life.
My friend Crystal sent me this, and I was like "aw, isn't that cute" and she blushed. xD It's a lovely song! :3
