I was a Starbucks barista taking Justin's order one day. In my mind I thought no way it was him. I said he he looked so familiar and he said I'm from a band called Blue October. I tried so hard not to freak out since his music got me through some depressing times. He was with his daughter so I didnt ask for a picture. He was so calm, humble, and incredibly nice human being.

What kills me about that line is that so often only one of them is actually TRYING at all. They give 150% of everything while the other person gives 50% of some, and the one that gives all is left holding the baggage and the bill. I'm sorry to be a downer here, but if they're both TRYING and TRYING, then they're gonna make it.

guys, i have never walked in your shoes but i can tell you this. The worst thing you can do is beat yourself up with your past. You can not keep living in there. Yes, you had good times and yes you were happy with them once, but they have moved on, everybody has moved on and so should you. You are strong, you will always be strong, thats why you are still here now, breathing! But the ultimate test of your strength will be to face the challenge to love yourself. Stand up everyday and say I will be better today! We go through break-ups because the universe is telling us that somehow, something better will be waiting for us! time heals, so let time run its course. Always keep your head held high. Tomorrow is a new day.

It was a Saturday night that I married the one woman who I believed was worth swearing those oaths too. She was beautifu, gorgeous, by the way, blow your socks off kinda beautiful! didn't realize just how much I actually fell in love with her until I knew I had already lost her. Then I went full retard. I lost both her and myself before finding my feet again. Was a disaster to say the least. Taught me some hard lessons about myself, and love all on one big bang. I always think of her when I hear this song. I hope she finds someone who loved her at the depth I did. Just in the way she deserves. From the heart, im glad our lives crossed paths. Regardless or the nightmare ending. I hope shes happy too. I can sing it word for word!..just not as good as Justin haha.

Listen to King that was recorded the same day then. Wow! 😍

My ex was a big Blue October fan. He passed away 6/16/19. We always have had a very deep love for each other and neither of us wanted to split up but he had some addiction issues and I had to leave him since I have kids. My heart broke nine years ago when I left. He struggled with his disease and was in and out of rehab. Paul was my soul mate and even though we separated, he always had my heart. He was kindhearted, generous, loving and protective. The day after he passed away, I begged for some sign from him and this song came on. It was the first time I’d heard it. I know he sent it to me. My daughter heard it with me and she’s the one with the Dr Pepper eyes and I’m the one with the bubble gum pink hair. Spirit works in mysterious and wonderful ways. Now, I see his face in everything. The sky, shadows, the light shining on the leaves of trees, behind my eyelids when I close my eyes. I dream of him and I wonder how this world still exists without him. I loved him so much. He was my best friend. RIP my Love. Until we meet again.

My sister passed 10 days before my birthday latter 2022. A year went by and my mom and I couldn't believe it. It seemed as if another day; but for some reason this very day I write this, it hit me hard. Right now the entire state is in a blizzard warning and I remember how much she hated the cold. She loved Blue October and I came to love this band through her as well and decided to order some recent CDs tonight. The last great memory we shared together was both of us seeing Blue October live 7ish years ago. She was so happy. Miss you much sis.

My daughter was born on March 3rd, 2022. She was born at 10:14 in the morning. The first time I seen those beautiful big blues eyes open and look at me for the first time I will never be the same again. This is one of my lullabies for her that I first sang to her in the hospital at 2 in the morning, trying to soothe her and my heart melted the more I thought of this song and looked at her precious face. I realized she was my saving grace and the thing I needed more in my life to save me from myself and benevolent thoughts. I love you Nevaeh and I promise to keep you as happy as I can make you. That's a father's promise to his first born daughter.

My parents split up when I was 18. I’ll never forget the confusion and the hurt, because we all want to believe our parents are in love. My mom was the one who left, and my dad took it really hard. He was so bitter and depressed for so long but he always said he’d do anything for her. He passed away when I was 19 and my mom sent me this song after he passed and said that a few months before he got sick, they had a long talk and he was himself again, he had forgiven her and himself, and was happy she was with someone new. She told me he sent her this song. I listen to it several times a week and although it makes me cry so hard it feels like it brings me peace. To know he hopes she is truly happy, and now he’s in Heaven watching over us. I feel like it’s his song to me, to really keep me going.

I can’t fix you I’m sorry....” and she left.... my heart is broken... but if I’m not what makes her happy anymore I hope she finds her happiness without me... I meant when I told her from day one her happiness was everything to me.. I’ll honor that. So anyone struggle through depression please make it to the next day stay strong we’re going to be alright.

So true. My son recently went to stay with his father's side for a while after 11 years with me. Ugh this song rips me apart thinking of him and him stepping out and trying a new school 1200 miles away.

Thanks God for making me live in the same world that Justin, thanks.

I remember a live Performance of this song during the soundcheck experience. They played this one song during the soundcheck and it was the first time I saw them live. Justin started to sing and I was sobbing and crying because I thought of the person who hurt me the most. But I hoped she will be happy. Justin started recognizing and looked me right in my eyes, pointed at me and told me/said "I hope you're happy." I will never forget that. I'm so thankful he helped me through this.

I’ve always loved this. So many memories attached. I do hope the one I think of is happy…

I just saw Blue October last night at Jannus Landing in St Petersburg, FL (11.3.2018). Wow!!! They get better and better. I've seen them before - three times to be precise - Justin has come of age. I will always be a fan of Blue October. I fought depression hard in the early 2000s and connected with his/their earlier stuff in the mid to late 2000s. Hopefully life is a journey however and for those of us that struggled to fight through it, there have been so many great moments in life. He brings that thought to life as he makes peace with his past and falls harder for his wife Sarah and his kids. His lyrics tied together with his melodies are haunting. Same thing now that he's finding ways to escape his former self. This song is great. His acoustic version of "hate me" last night left chills. He would only start signing it if we all turned our flashlights on on our phones so he couldn't see the faces in the audiences. I have a new found respect and love for his/their work.

So we just ignore that this might be one of the best songs ever sung. What a voice. What a message

I dedicate this to the mother of my children, and my kids, I hope you and my kids are happy, wherever you are... 😔

His music helped me a lot when i was in the military during the pandemic

*Dang. This is perfect.* 👏👌

My sons mother got me into blue October a few years back, I didn’t pay attention to him much while we were together but she always played hate me, and it’s just funny I’d give him a listen after me and her separated.. I hated him because he cuts to my soul and heart but after a while I appreciated how his music always made me confront emotions and demons that you try to keep locked but he sets you free for a few minutes. Bitter sweet...

I'll always have you're back, Dusty. When love means love. It's real here, my man.

I'm playing this at my wake. For my kids, after I'm gone.

SOO UNDERRATED!

Totally! Awesome in concert.

Just watched this amazing group perform this and much more live Nov 27 2021 WOW!!

If more people had friends that really understood them the world would be a better place.

This song saved my life

My boyfriend introduced me to blue October about 10 years ago and im so glad he did because to this day Justin's voice gets me through the toughest shit in my life. Even this song, this song is for an ex and its not even vicious its about just moving on and wishing each other well. After I went through a divorce this song came out when I was in the mental stage of "ok, im no longer angry I just hope my ex is ok and I wanna move on" so this song just hit home to me mentally. Justin comes to my town once a year and we go every time (with the exception of covid we missed 2 years of shows but we opted to pay for justins virtual shows). I dont know what it is about this man but he is genuine and so unique.

Chills every time, every song...sometimes tears but always touches my heart with every song. ❤️

Tnx for the biscuit.

Great song ,,what talent

Helping me fight alcoholism, depression, anxiety, and the loss of my brother with every song

I found this four days before someone I love very much died, and it was like she wrote this for me. I have to go, I think I have something in my eye...

Never have I heard or seen someone put so much emotion or themselves into music like he does!!!

Kids...,this is how I felt about mom....Best of luck to you..you'll always have a piece of me ,my girl...

This song is keeping me afloat right now. my wife asked for a divorce last Friday I love her so much it’s tearing me apart

Not on the same boat, going through a break up with the mother of my child. I got so much anger and hate for myself knowing its over. Its always who they say dont worry about him. Knowing that your life is gone in a blink of an eye and that your own son says and mentions her lover by name boils my blood like no other. I fucking hate it but know if i end it i wont see him smile back at me

today it will have been 21 years my little brother took his own life. Fuuuck it still hurts. thank you Blue October for makin it a bit easier through your songs.. i hope he's happy and at peace. I work for the first Nations and Inuit Suicide prevention assocaiton of Quebec and Labrador and hope that all will be safe and enjoy the holidays. Much love to all.xxx..

♥i hope he's happy, too. I was 19 when I lost the boy i thought I was going to marry. He asked me to be his wife. I said yes...foolishly in my first year of college. Thought I had it all figured out. He was such a troubled soul, the one that was impossible not to love and i mean crazy love...he got into some trouble a few days before Valentine's day. Committed suicide in his jail cell the same night he was booked. His father also lost to suicide.... I flunked out of college and I've been fucked up ever since.

Beautiful, absolutely amazing

My heart just skipped a beat!!!❣

This man has passion for what he does even years later.

Really wished they would've put this version on the new album....

He is so wonderful live. Most moving performance I have ever seen.

41 and still loving their songs

I love this. I think of my hubby singing this to me from heaven.

I was a huge depressed Blue fan when I was a kid and when they got their moment of fame I complained that the more it felt produced the less soul it had. This reminds me of why I loved them. Just this dude singing with his heart on his sleeve.

I have listened to "Hate me" a million times.. I will listen to this a million times as well lol..

I hope they see all their fans comments, I’d like Justin to know I listen to them, study the lyrics, every song allows me to push on every day, thank you fellas

Thank you to Justin and the rest of Blue October...... Pills and meth almost killed me for yrs.. Clean now for 8 yrs...... Your music helped me so much and still does. It resides in my soul for always.....

All of this video is amazing. However, that bridge (starts at 2:06) KILLS me. So beautiful.

Sean Cummings yes!!

Damn he's just always amazing.

My love if you ever read this. I really hope you are doing well. I only did and wanted the best for you.

Loving from a distance is the most selfless act a human can do. This songs speaks about it perfectly, if they fall you’ll catch them. I want her happiness even if it’s not with me.

Also, this needs to be on Spotify please please please!!!

Folks, the human will to overcome is an awesome thing. I've had drug addiction problems for over 20 years, I've just come out of an unhappy 15 year relationship, 3 kids. And I have met the most amazing girl in the world, she has helped me beyond words, with everything. Somebody who really gets, and understands me. Im 37 now, that's how long it took me to find my missing part. Something I didn't believe existed. The world stops spinning for nobody, don't stand still for it THE 1, the real 1 is out there, lookin for u too.

This is brilliant , 👌☺️💚

Beautiful, i am not ashamed to say tears are rolling down my cheeks.

Your voice is so amzing.
