When I was 12, I dated a 14 year old who lived down the street. This was our song back then. We broke up and then ended up back together for almost 6 years in highschool/adulthood (from 2011 to 2017). He took his life last month. I've come back to listen to this song so much over the years and this is the first time I've listened to it since he passed. I'm 26 now, 27 soon, and he'll be 28 forever. This will forever be one of the sweetest memories of mine. 🤍

It's been a long time since I've read such a genuinely humane comment written from the heart that cuts as deep as this one. I'm so sorry. I don't know anything about you, but right now I wish I did. I hope you have a wonderful life. I've often thought about ending myself too, I usually look happy and great from the outside, but I've been living with hidden angst for too many years. I have the feeling you're one the rare kind of person that makes this strange confusing world a little bit nicer. Thank you so much.

In the summer my mom would blast this song in the car with me and my sister. We would just cruise in the streets of our small town. It was as if the town was ours because it would be so late at night. Almost no one was out at the time. The windows would be down because our car ac didn't work but no one was complaining because the feeling of the wind in our faces made us feel fresh. Life was easy, the sky was shiny dark and blue, and Blue October made us all feel happy and chill. I thank my mom for making these little moments of my childhood.

My husband who is deployed right now, called me this morning and told me to listen to this song. He told me that it made him think of me. I miss him when he is gone and i can't wait to have him back in my arms again. I love you Danny! will all my heart!!

This song just truly brings me back to my youth, a time for me when love was pure and true. It’s not that it doesn’t currently exist in my life, it’s just that this is when it felt more real than anything else. No doubt, no insecurities, and no worries of anything at all, just two young people against the world. Every time I listen to this song, it brings me back there. Funny how age, maturity and responsibilities of being an adult will make you lose focus of all that. Thank you to Justin and Blue October for always being there to remind me.

To my daughter.. You changed my life, the man I was and the man I wanted to be. "You ARE everything I ever wanted to be and I am so glad you picked me" to be your father.. I love you more than words can describe... I was 18 and facing 15 years in prison, when you were born I too was born again. I love you Madison, thank you for changing my life!

This type of music really makes you appreciate what you have.

The love of MY life sent me here, too. He's an ocean away... five thousand miles, fifteen hours... But constantly on my heart and will be home around Thanksgiving--what a great Thanksgiving that would be!

This is my girlfriend and I's song. The story behind it is that we were like 2 months into our relationship (we have now been dating for 2 years) we went to a blue october concert and this song started playing. We were rocking out to it and around the second verse i just stop grab her and tell her "If i didn't already know that I love you this would be the moment I realize"

Blue October has helped me get through things in life since I was very young. When this song played I would sing along to it without realizing what it really meant until now. 100 miles can feel far when you're away from home. Calling with my love is the best part of my day, and I will always cherish the time we can actually spend together. Thank you Alex for simply being you, and thank you Blue October for putting my feelings into words.

This was one of the first songs my boyfriend sang to me. It was the moment I fell in love with him (and the music of Blue October). Now 3 years later, we're engaged. This will always be our song ❤

My husband and I married 11 years ago..its still our song and we can't hear it without stopping everything and singing to each other !! Love it !!

Blue October is amazing. End of story. Personally, I'm just amazed how they can capture love, hate, self loathing, sadness, etc of a persons emotions. For instance, "Hate me" is so full of pain and anger at ones self for hurting the one he loves. The lyrics, his voice, everything about the song is so beautiful and intense. And then I hear this song, which is opposite but again, so true. I'm only speaking for myself, but I repeat. Blue October is amazing. And lyrical geniuses. Can't get enough.

He just wants to make me happy, and he does it perfectly. I told him last night that I love when he falls asleep on face time with me, and a little later he face times me just so he could fall asleep. He understands it's the small things that mean the most. I love you, Hector ❤ I am forever yours.

This song makes me believe that love still exists in the world.

I used to listen to this song just so I could hate myself more for messing up my relationship with the love of my life but now I feel almost nothing. This was the song she used to describe our relationship but I screwed it up. Time heals all wounds.

Me and my boyfriend have a lot of what we call karaoke nights which just consists of us sitting in his pickup truck somewhere listening and singing to every song we can find on the radio or on his mixed cd's. Well, we eventually ended up finding this song on one of his cd's. We kind of just sang it to each other and kissed between each word. haha. Now, this is our song and lately I can't get it out of my head. (:

this is one of my favorite love songs. I've lived sort of a vagabond lifestyle, and have been separated from my loved ones on long trips away from home. Justin knows how to share real feelings. I love the way he expresses himself.

My mom is pregnant and she ran away from home today. It’s been 5 hours and we haven’t heard from her. We drove around looking for her and I randomly remembered this song from when I was younger. My mom and I would jam out to it.
