Another song that deserves a place in the Top 100 Songs of All-Time.

It’s a good song but that’s a bit of a stretch. Outside of the message it isn’t anything spectacular.
The voicemail in the beginning is actually from the singers mom, he suffers from bi-polar, it's also his mom at the end of the video If you've ever suffered from depression or addiction, you've got some pretty weird and screwed up memories, hence the line of making a porno feel like home Most with depression have tried to take their life at least once, including me The ending is a metaphor for burying his past

Without a doubt my favorite band. Justin is a lyrical genius. This band is always amazing.
YES YES YES. Me and my wife love blue October and we’ve seen them in concert. Home is our favorite song by them. Also Justin Furstenfeld is awesome. He’s a real ass dude.
I love the acoustic version. It just hits you so hard that I cry each time I hear it. Thanks to Blue October for helping me get through some tough times💙

I love it way more than the original
You are spot on with your analysis. When this first came out it was shortly after my dad passed. This song played everyday several times just so I could figure out how to get over the guilt for not seeing him before I deployed.
Yes it’s his mom. But also just about his addiction and all it cost him. His fingers are bleeding at the end cuz he’s playing guitar so hard and for so long.

Hey, Jessica! Yours and my sister's names are the same. Hope you're well during these times!
You should also react to Into the ocean Fear I'm not broken anymore Home All by Blue October, Justin is an amazing singer and I admire him for these songs, they have helped me in more ways then one. These songs also show how he beat his addictions and how he's doing now.
This is one of my all-time favorite songs and I'm so happy you watched the music video
This was one of the songs I found on my son's playlist after he died by suicide in 2008. Makes me cry every time I hear it. I wonder if he was feeling this way. He also had just broken up with his girlfriend. This song just breaks my heart.
As a mom this just crushes me. It hits different than when I first heard it.
He was finally diagnosed with bipolar. He is doing a lot better now a days! He has been through it mental illness is no joke!! Wishing you many blessings! Stay safe!
You should react to “Home” by Blue October next so you can listen to some of their happier music!
Oh Billy you had to do this one didn't you... This song holds so much meaning for me because of my struggles with anxiety, depression, and attempted suicide!!! I used to play this on a constant loop. Thankfully I'm doing much better.

"While I was busy waging war on myself, you were trying to stop the fight." That line crushes me every time.
Justin is such a humble, honest, and open individual. His music tells his story from mental health & drug issues to finding God and completely turning his life around. I have so much admiration for him..his music resonates with me on many levels, brings tears and goose bumps. You should check out his song Home.
Lead singer, Justin Furstenfeld, does amazing story time acoustic sessions. He states that he penned "Hate Me" after a breakup early in his career when he caught this "I'm Justin mf'in Furstenfeld" attitude. Those performances give you a very insightful and intimate look into the mind of an amazing, yet sometimes tortured, artist and lyricist. Another amazing song ,"The Worry List", I always recommend parents fight over custody etc. listen to. I'd love to see a reaction to it.
This was a song I listened to a lot and cried to when my uncle committed suicide, six months after my grandma passed. This song made me think of him bc she seemed to be one of the only ones who could keep him on track after his wife passed. He had a drinking problem and when she passed of cancer he struggled more. They argued alot but she was his rock
I think it's hard for ppl to understand his music but for those that do truly understand the dark place he came from and what he has over come can truly appreciate his music. The more recent music he has made has shown how he has over come the past and how he really appreciates it all. He is an amazing artist and til this day is absolutely GREAT. thank you to Justin and blue October for all the music
I used to listen to this and Better Than Me by Hinder and just cry. I always felt undeserving growing up. Great song!
You gotta do I Hope You're Happy - the music video is trippy and it's such a good song.
"Into the Ocean" is another great one to react to and the video is "different"
I absolutely love this song. No matter what I’m feeling, but especially on the days I’m really down...this is one of those songs I can turn up loud and feel like the noise in my head makes sense.
The message his mom left on the machine is just another reminder of how she was always there for him no matter how dark things got and how she neglected her needs because of it. He cannot deal with the guilt knowing that his actions in the heat of addiction and mental health struggles prevented her from focusing on her own needs, her own happiness and her own health and wellness.
Now you should check out Puddle of Mud, She Hates Me. It's more of a rock song 😊

This is the song that I played at my grandfather's funeral Ik it sound heartless but I've hurt him and my grandmother so much I just wish sometimes they would have admitted they hated me for all the wrong I've done but nope they just keep helping me and loving me even when I dont deserve it
Thank you for for making this heard. I've had to deal with manic depression. Until you reached that point, you will never understand. It's real and more people have been there than you know. Good night and peaceful rest.
Anytime this song is reacted to it reminds me of the worst time in my life...in a good way. This song seriously helped save my life. I was in a deep depression when I heard this song and I can remember playing it on repeat so many times. Blue October, Skillet, Evanescence, 7th Day Slumber, and Linkin Park were the bands that saved my sanity. Even now hearing this song it takes me way back. Thank you for reacting to this! I recommend checking out Skillet and 7th Day Slumber!
This song is about the end of his relationship with a girl while he was struggling with mental health and alcohol issues. So he wanted to set her free, hence Hate Me Today, so she could move on from the mess his life was at the time. It is also viewed as a sequel to “Calling You” which was written about the same girl.

There is another song that is like that. This song is about wanting his Mother to hate him in so that she doesn't worry about him anymore. There are interviews of the lyrical meaning. I mean if there is something you can show me otherwise, I might understand, but for all the years I have listened that was the concept. My Mom passed this Feb., and my brother, a former addict sang it at the funeral. He changed some lyrics given we were with her church family and the end of lyrics to "love me today, etc." It ended up very beautiful and showed how our Mom supported him without enabling him. This song is so very honest.

Oh my gosh. I was watching one of your Carrie Underwood videos and this was in the recommended. I LOVE THIS. One of my all time favorites. ♡♡♡♡. I love your channel.
Freakin finally youre doing another one lol. Fear is definitley a must listen song from these guys. Also whenever possible with this band do live. As good as they are in studio theyre a fucking revelation live.
Awesome reaction Billy. You will never go wrong doing a Blue October song they are all very beautifully written with passion and meaning
He actually wrote this song for a girl named Amy, not his mom. It was his apology to her after he ditched her when he got famous. He’s very open about how bad his ego got. He’s grown into such an amazing man 🖤

I have heard him say it was really to both his mom and his ex. Apology letter to both.
Bleed out, home, fear, oh my my, into the ocean, light u up, the worry list are great songs too to name a few they are all great
Justin is a lyrical genius and the rest of the band, including his brother on the drums, help him bring those emotions to life. You can feel the joy, sadness, anger all radiating out of him through his words-especially on stage! If you’re not won over yet I suggest a live concert! They leave you breathless! He was deep into drugs when their popularity skyrocketed with this song. Luckily he has come out on the other side a humble, honest, and loving father/husband/son/brother/band mate. Please react to Fear, Picking Up Pieces, and Feel Again (Stay)!
You uploaded this right when I was looking up this song
Blue October...amazing band !!!
There is a song called "Read All ABout It". Because you are a veteran you should watch the one that is on Britain's Got Talent. Mind you it is emotional so prepare for that but make sure you find a funny video shortly after or if you're like some soldier's and myself you'll have flashbacks.
I love these guys. I really liked your reaction to their song worry list. Just to let ya know Justin Furstenfeld the lead singer is in such a better place in life now. The cute little girl in the worry list video is his 1st daughter Blu and she lives (she's 12 yrs old now) with him and his wife Sarah and their 2 children Sadie Bell and Gunner Black. I enjoyed this video🍄🌻🤓
Its a metaphor, its about the death of a relationship. Been down with blue october since 1995. Worry list is awesome. Fear is also great.
Constant loop-replay.. I love ❤️ Blue October
My all time favourite band ❤️❤️
I love Blue October, his songs are amazing. His songs have a way of transporting you out of depression.
The lead singer/songwriter Justin Furstenfeld has changed a lot since those dark days. He's gotten sober and found faith. Listen/Watch Blue October's *"Fear"* to get a sense of how he's chosen to move forward and be a healthy accountable adult. Also, "18th Floor Balcony" is what made me a fan of Blue October.
this song has and allways will bring me to tears my mom was allways my rock and through highschool i allways thought i wasnt enought for her and this was kind of a theme song of sorts im way past that now but it still reminds me that as a human you can cause your loved ones soo much pain without realizing it
Seeing this live is so beautiful 😭

@Kelly C Really? Why? So played to death. Seriously, dude. Great song but, just way over played. He can't possibly never have heard it. Everybody knows Freebird. Especially if you're in a cover band now, or ever were at any time in your entire life. (Which I was.) Some drunk fool *ALWAYS* yells "play Freebird!" Or "FREEBIRD!!!" Always at the top of their drunk as a skunk lungs, too. One of the most hated songs of any cover band. Ever. There's actually a list many cover bands have of *ALL* the songs they won't play because they're sick of playing them. Pretty sure "Freebird" is #1 on the "we really hate covering this song, so never request it" song list. Along with songs like "Mustang Sally".

I wish people would react to the live version. The one u had thumbnail of. Been waiting for a reaction of them live. Seen them live finally, couple yrs ago. Was damn good concert but this song live blows the studio versIon away. So good
In my many years watching KZread, I think this is my first comment. I would implore you to check out Blue October Fear, either as a reaction or just for the sake of hearing it. Either the acoustic version or the official video. You will not regret it. I think it may be one of the best songs ever written. The acoustic version includes some commentary from Justin at the beginning of the song that emphasizes just how far he has come with his battles against depression and substance abuse.
The narrative in the video about his mother was something the music video director came up with. The song was actually about the lead singers fractured relationship with his girlfriend due to his drug addiction and depression. The voicemail at the beginning is an actual voicemail message from his mother, and his mother played herself in the video.
Fucking hell, over a decade later it this one still makes me tear up every freakin time!
This song still keeps me off dope. Lost my wife to drugs 2 and a half years ago. Took psych wards, jail, and rehab to get me sober
I thought it was different women in his life 1st verse - ex 2nd - mom etc..but other commenters sayin that’s incorrect so…still a song hits in the feels
Into the ocean - Blue October By far my favorite song by them
As someone who's husband battled heroin this song is like a knife in the heart. Addiction and mental illness is a really heavy topic.
The song was actually written for his ex girlfriend but the video was made to look about his mom. Fun fact that was his real mom in the video, and she’s still alive. Unfortunately his dad did just pass away.
Please do I got the boy by Jana kramer
Fun fact Justin the frontman of Blue October. The girl on the cover of their second album is his daughter and her name is Blue. Fun Fact been following them for year's. Their music is helped me through some dark places in my life.
Blue October - Into the Ocean
the song wasnt written about his mom it was written about an ex that he felt like he was hurting with his mental health issues but on that note he felt like that about his parents as well, there was an interview years ago where he explained it
love that song
I think this is an addiction song. It touched me that way. I love it.
Blue October is one of my all time favorite bands. The lead singer has had a pretty rough life. But he's absolutely amazing at song writing. Their music has a permanent place on my playlist.
The beauty of music is how impacts you not what was it about
I'm so glad my bois are getting more popular recently... They make such wonderful music.
The greatest substance misuse and recovery tune ever written
GREAT CHOICE! Blue October is incredible!
Blue October Fear is an amazing song
Reacting to Blue October earned another subscriber here.
This song always gets to me! It reminds me of my mother that passed away 25 years ago we never had a good relationship, the only time she ever told me she loved me was the day before she died but I was so angry so i didn’t say it back. I live with that every day that i thought I had time but i didn’t. So to anyone out there that doesn’t have the best relationship with their parents try to fix it! I no longer have either one of my parents it sucks 😔😔
This was a very dark song with major and real issues. This song was written by Justin Furstenfeld about the way he was towards depression, anxiety, substance abuse and suicidal thoughts. I guess his mom couldn't take it and she passed away from a broken heart. Great song but very dark. Do I'll Follow you Into The Dark by Death Can for Cutie next now that is a dark song as well.
i love this song and everything about it.
Blue October "Breakfast After 10"
Lightning crashes by Live. I love this song hate me. Never saw the video however its exactly what I thought it would be and knew it was about his mother.
Justin explained in his Open Book tour that the song is actually about his ex. Although in the video they make it seem like it is about his mother.
You're 100% accurate on what's going on with the video. If you want a upbeat song by Blue October, try I Hope You're Happy And a really deep song by them is called Fear
Zac Brown Heavy is the head.
This is an apology song for the pain his mental/addiction problems caused those that loved him and he wished they would hate him so he couldn't hurt tgem anymore. His first albums are very, very dark and have a lot of violent, crazy, lyrics, but the music is amazing. Every Blue October album is vastly different and the most recent album is very happy/healthy, he's married and has good relationship with family and his kids. I would suggest "Fear" "Home" and my personal favorite, "For my brother"
This song chokes me up every time. Just really well written lyrically, and the thought of begging your mom to hate you so she doesn't have to suffer through you destroying yourself is just unbearably heartbreaking to think about.
They have a song called "Congratulations" that I LOVE!
Thank you mom
Please check out their video for Bleed Out
I put my mom through Hell, between the drugs/alcohol, not to mention withdrawals! I wish she could've seen my sobriety...10 years now 😓
The cockroach simile to me means this. Anyone who’s hurt another person knows we lay in bed thinking about all the mistakes we’ve made, the mistreatments we’ve done, and the pain we’ve inflicted. You don’t want to be reminiscing on those things in your bed because they disgust you, just like cockroaches in your bed would disgust you. It’s basically saying “I disgust myself for the things I’ve done” The line “makes a porno feel like home” also carries this sort of meaning. Think of laying in your living room watching a porno and a guest arrives, how would that make you feel? Would you feel comfortable and at home? The line is saying I would feel more comfortable watching a porno with a priest or nun or a parent or anyone who one would feel awkward doing that with than be sitting here thinking of my past mistakes and how much I’ve hurt you. When we have self destructive tendencies and we are aware of them and we feel disgusting and we hate ourselves, it is so hard to accept love (especially from a parent because they usually love us unconditionally) love when all we do is destroy ourselves and the people around us just makes us feel more disgusted with ourselves so the song as a whole is saying it would be easier for me if you would just hate me and forget about me. I am a lost cause. I am broken and I cannot be changed or fixed. Stop trying to help me and help yourself by hating me and leaving me in your past so you can have the happiness you deserve instead of all this pain and suffering I bring you. Listen to “Bleed Out” by Blue October it’s essentially the contrast of this song and from the perspective of the person being hurt while this one is from the perspective of the pain inflictor.
man, you guys gotta listen to their 2nd and 3rd album; Consent to Treatment and History for Sale.
Love, love this song. It’s about overcoming addiction. He’s clean, married and has a family now.
Can you do "Cleaning this Gun" by Rodney Atkins? Or maybe "Drinking Class" or "One of them girls" by Lee Brice?
I remember hearing this song forever ago and loving it but now I only listen to this performance of it whenever I want to hear it again, glad you’re reacting to it! Edit: Nevermind, I guess you’re not watching the video you used for the thumbnail...
I cried the first time I watched and heard this song 🥺 This was created after he broke up with his girlfriend.
When you listen to a recorded version of Blue October you realize how good the mix and production is. However live is where it's at!
Great band from Houston tx
Yes this was too his mother, the recording was his mom talking to him. He had bipolar and was a drug user.
his mom is still alive but the song was for her. thankfully Justin is in a much better place now, u need to check out a recent song they put out called "home" which stands in juxtaposition to this one now.
There are few songs in this world with a more powerful emotional impact than this one.
He wrote this song as an apology to everyone close to him for all he put them through during his drug abuse.
Depressing and uplifting (thank your loved ones and everyone you know) at the same time.
Calling You
Please do Into the Ocean by Blue October
