This is 1 of my fav songs & it's stuck w/ me for a good amount of my yrs. I was around in the 90s but in 99 I was still only 16. So in my defense, even tho I like this song, the 90s is a blur for me. It's like yeah, this song hits deep, sadly, it's always f'n heavy for me & it never stops, but for the life of me, I never remember who even sings this. I'll go through a 90s vibe thing trying to list off randoms from the top of my head like idk. It's prob soul asylum.

Man, i remember when i first discovered this amazing song. I was immediately hooked. Ever since then I've been a huge Collective Soul fan. Dosage is one of my favorite albums ever

Being from the late 60 s early 70s this is the first (modern band I could relate to)

Every band has a "sound". This one has few parallels.

Bad ass song then and now!

I totally forgot about this song. I'm here today because I just heard it again, of all places, driving along with a fellow chaperone on my kid's field trip. Imagine this suburban soccer mom in a mini van, and here we were rocking out to this as we followed the school buses. I was like, "Omg I was in 6th grade when this came out." She laughed and said, "I was in my first year of college. I remember playing beer pong to this." It was the coolest thing, in my mind we were in 1999 again. Here I was, a little 6th grader, riding shotgun with the coolest college freshman. It made me feel both young and old at the same time.

Nhl 2001. Anybody else???😊

Currently att my eight year old's gymnastics meet. Shine starts playing over the loudspeaker. I suddenly felt the overwhelming urge to find this. I've not heard it for probably ten years. It's still every bit as good as when it came out.

One of the raddest grooves ever.

No one has mentioned that Collective Soul is the greatest band name ever.

Love that these are being released by you to is, thank you for so many years of pleasure 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Simply purerock truly undErrated

Still obsessed with this song and album

The best song !!!!!!!!!!

Hi boys of Collective Soul. Song fantastic.I love this song and too " The world I know", "Run", "Needs", "December", "Precious declaration", "Listen" , "Shine". Thank you for their work. See you from Peru.

My oldest son introduced me to grunge. 🖤🖤🖤

Thank you

Seeing them tonight! Can't wait!

Collective soul is awesome

Great song from a great band!

Party like the world is ending in 2000!!!

On my epic playlist! This song raises me up when I’m feeling heavy, and it inspires me to help others suffering with mental health issues when I’m feeling fabulous.

I was an older woman when I heard this song. I was 30. I just divorced my husband of 9 years. I raised my daughter by myself she turned out great.

Friggin amazing song!!

When I listen to this song, it reminds me of my teenage days and the beautiful summer days in the late 90s.

This has to be my favorite album

If you want to hear another really great one by this band, check out "Heavy". My husband and I heard it in the car one night, called the radio station and asked them what it was, soooooooooooo good you guys, check it out.

This just popped up in my recommended videos and I couldn't think of the song. This is crazy! I haven't heard this in at least a decade. This is going in the rotation.

Uma das melhores músicas que já ouvi. Sensacional

We were there. We saw something beautiful. It was the last too.

Favorite band.. My first live show was Home in Atlanta. Seen repeatedly since and will again August 18 in Utica New York.

I think I was in high School when I first heard this song, so much better than most music nowadays

Wowww !!! What a kind of song awake on me this feeling of want to listen more and more rock like this a masterpiece!!! ❤

I like this

This is a brilliant piece of music.

The bass player, Ray, is thumping on IT.

That guitar solo.

A well crafted song for sure.

Even though I hear this in college, it still feels like it was an 80's song I heard in my childhood. One of the unsung greats.

The guitar on this is fucking spot on!

This is the ONLY CD I ever bought. I was blown away by this song when it came out..

2024 and this song still hits so hard! ❤❤❤

Hypnotic! Much love

Damn this song jams!!!

Nothing else to say they said it all and we all have to b originated from 60s&70 need I say more, love

💙💙💙

It's one of those songs I wish was redone by a 21st century band but only to ensure it continues to live on.
