I'm touched by how much you liked this song. It's a personal song for me, very deep and raw from my own experiences. Justin obviously wrote this song to express his battle with addiction and how it affected his relationship with his mom, and you can always tell when someone is just mouthing off or speaking from the soul and experience. And this song has more soul than I can almost handle. And I love that his facial expressions lock it in, really cement the emotion here. Songs like this help me deal with my own battles in this department. Thank you for reviewing it and for the love, it actually means a lot to me. Since you like this, you should REALLY check out Macklemore's "Otherside". Another amazing song about addiction that just sends me over the edge. Please listen to it :) XOXO

One of the realest songs about addiction I've ever heard

I feel the same way.when my mind goes dark this song draws me back out and brings out that raw emotion and a good cleaning cry sometimes. 💙

I just watched your reaction to Fear and being the hardcore Blue fan I had to come find this. You absolutely NAILED this review!!! This is my personal song from them. It saved my life. Thank you for appreciating it so much

He is definitely connected in this song, and I tell you now sir, if you love this song... you really need to listen to more of his music. You will be blown away! His emotion & passion is very strong in every song he sings. Gives me chills

Another really emotional, beautiful song of theirs is called The Feel Again (Stay).

Awesome... Blue October is my favorite band & I wish everyone did reactions to them. I would LOVE for you to react to Home or HRSA

This song is so passionate because it’s about his real life...during a difficult time that he went through. He’s truly an amazing person and I suggest listening to more of his music and learning more about him. 💙💛

Fear or bleed out acoustic version by them, Justin is an amazing vocalist and his writing is so raw and poetic 👌

I loved your reaction. You're so spot on about his story telling and how his connection from his lyrics to his emotions. Amazing.

Their live performances are amazing.

You should check out fear by them. Any song you will feel the passion. Been a fan for 13 years.

I’ve seen them 6 times already. And going to again in March when there in Indianapolis. There live is so passionate.

Love Blue October! You should see them in concert. They play in small intimate venues and his emotions come out in all his songs. Amazing artist!!

The live version of this song is unreal you'd love it

You hit all the main points for this song. Great reaction

The lyrics are pure genius, as is the song's story.

Calling you and into the ocean are my 2 favorites from Blue October .

Hey Mark! This was my first experience with your reaction videos and I totally love your style of review!! I want to introduce you to a song by one of my favorite bands, "Skillet" and the song "Feel Invincible". Now, Skillet is a Christian rock band but please, please don't let put you off from listening to the song. Peace, Kismet P.S. PLEASE don't ever stop doing what you do. We need this kind of exposure to new music and experiences now, more than ever. :D

Welcome to the Blue family 💙

Great reaction!

Good reaction man!! Try Fear or Bleed Out

His fingers bleed from all the shredding on the guitar... that's when u know u are in the pocket or what others may call it your zone ... he put that much sad anger emotion into the song and played from the heart that's the raw beauty of guitar my friend it will happen when u really get into truly playing I love your review for this song man this song really hits home to me in a deep very personal way

Hey brother I noticed u seen the blood and I must say that is from pure fire from the spirit and soul he literally played the guitar THAT hard he isn't just playing for the play he is pouring his heart out

this is the first time watching this reaction. needless to say i will be subscribing, i will turn on notifications, and i will like this video.

You can actually hear his entire life play out if you listen to the entire discography. He helped me and I am sure I am not the only one.

Thank you for this

Blue October is one of my favorite bands of all time. Of you get a chance you really need to do a video on their video for their song "Fear"... very powerful and uplifting song.

These guys are underrated. please check out video for Bleed Out by them. Its so good.

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

I personally have been lucky enough to be connected to Blue October and Justin for over 20 years. The way you bring up Bone Thugs isn't crazy. In fact I know multiple artists in Houston, including Bones. Some great artists are out of Houston!

shout out Houston!!! I grew up on the SW side...saw B.O. at Fitz many times

Wish they would comeback! Get rid of the past and show us fans a born again rockstar!!!

Heart wrenching song.

It’s funny how different people think of music. Some people are effected more with the musical instruments like in rap and rock, some in the lyrics where acoustic is better, and some like both. Myself, an acoustic guitar or a piano is best. This song has such a deep meaning that shouldn’t be hidden by the drums and electric guitars.

Best comment to the Blue October 👍

Justin, the singer, likes rap/hip hop as well. I know of one song that you, as a fan of rap/hip hop, would probably like. It called any man in America. It’s about his battle with the court system over custody of his daughter. Give it a listen and let us know what you think. Also I should mention that it is an explicit song. Lots of anger and foul language but when you hear it you will understand why.

Check out his new video HOME...SUCH AN UNDERRATED BAND

You may want to check out Zeale ft justin of blue october invisible prisons. its a cool rap song

Fear is a good song by them as well as the worry list.

Please listen and react to Fear by Blue October. Or if you like the lyrical visual storytelling listen and react to The End by Blue October.

Its his life of recovery..

I'd love to see you react to Martina McBride I'm going to love you through it! The message is something I think you'd appreciate 💖

Please listen to another one of their songs. They're still around.

Original!!!

Same band check out Fear or I hope you’re happy

Im sorry, but were you even listening to what the song is about? I see the disconnect, lol. this song is amazing but for so much more than its musicality. Dude, you literally played the part of the video where the mom finds her dead son?! Your eyes were closed both times! There is the disconnect. He suffered from depression, like hardcore depression. His storytelling is unique, and the substance of the lyric is why it was such a big hit. Blue October is awesome, but this review is kinda weak. I think you missed the whole point of it.

You missed the entire point of the storyline. His mom died. Am I the only one that got it?

You missed the entire point of the song. His mom died.

This guy did not understand the song at all...

I think that you really missed the depth of the story, you spoke about everything else but the deep nature of suicide. Your personal experience does not compare to drug addiction and that level of trauma. Sorry.

No offence but some of you guys and girls talk to much and miss stuff that’s important.

Disingenuous at best 🙃

10 min of editing your vocals only while playing the actual song from a download will be 10000x better than this
