He knows how much his music inspires people. at least with me he does. I met him four times now. I remember meeting him the third time. at the time I was sober for three years. I told him how he was my inspiration, to my sobriety. He told me that he was so proud of me and that I should be proud of myself. He told me to keep up the good fight and never give up or give in. He told me that I mattered to him and I was worth the struggle . He told me that he cared about me. Then he told me he loved me. He then gave me a huge hug 🤗. then said a prayer 🙏 for me. It’s now been five years. since I’ve been sober. I saw him about four months ago again. for the 4th time. I told him how now. I have been sober two more years. he again told me how proud of me he was. He said another prayer 🙏 for me. Afterwards he gave me another hug. He is an amazing person. I love you Justin 💙. Everybody reading this. I love 💙 you all out there. You are all amazing, wonderful, beautiful and unique individuals. Don’t ever give up the good fight. you are worth it and you matter. I love you and believe in you. I hope you have a blessed day. I hope you’re happy. God bless you and yours. Much peace ✌️, love 💙, unity and respect ✊

What a rabbit hole to be in. My favorite band ever and I tell people I’m a Blue October junkie
The absolute best band in concert. That just shows their true talent. Every last song in their catalogue has the same amount of emotion coming through. This band is genuine like no other.
Justins healing journey has been amazing. My son was severely depressed years ago and I showed him the video for the song Fear by Blue October and said, "one day you will not be depressed and this is how you will feel, just don't give up." A few years later he sent me the video and said, "You were right." I can't even begin to tell you how amazing that moment was. If you watch it, watch the video where he's by the ocean.

If you ever have the opportunity to see Blue October live, you will thank yourself for going. They are beyond incredible. Welcome to Blue Fam! Thanks so much for showcasing them and helping to introduce them to others. 💙
Just saw them again for I think my 5th time and hands down one of the best live performances ever. This tour, this album, this journey that Blue October takes us on is something you feel forever.
This song not only penetrates you, it pierces you your mind your heart and your body
Pretty sure this was a song about his divorce and how he'd wish she would stay since, with his daughter, there were 3 "in their show" His battle with drugs and mental illness were factors in the divorce though. He does have songs more specifically about getting free of drugs like "Light you up" and with Blue October, there is almost always an amazing live version. Any of the "live in texas" or "argue with a tree" live performances are great, but Justin Furstenfeld does solo or acoustic versions of their songs as well. I will gladly throw more suggestions your way if you dive down this rabbit hole, but for now there are already a few great choices in the comments.

Listen to Blue October "Hate Me" its real good. Ok I had to edit this to explain abit more about this song. Yes he had an issue with Alcohol...if you Listen to "Hate Me" one line in that song he says "Ive been sober now for 3 whole months thats one accomplishment that you helped me with"...later on in his career he was on tour with his wife/girlfriend at the time and backstage after the concert he was getting drunk and she hit him up infront of everyone that he was a hypocrite singing that song because he was relapsing and her words hit him hard. In this song he is singing about what helped him actually give up alcohol fully....in one line he says "and now its just the 2 of us" him and his wife/girlfriend....then at the end he says "and now its the 3 of us" meaning he has a child to consider aswell. Which to him is the biggest thing in his life that keeps him clean...helps him "feel again" and he hopes they stay.

I myself also just got turned on to Blue October within the last year or so. They have quickly become one of my favorite bands. Justin has some incredible acoustic videos as well. The man has an incredible voice and you are correct, he really does know how to bring out emotion in his voice. Glad you enjoyed them

Same. I just discovered them about a year ago. In fact they had just been in my town performing and I only knew their song Hate Me so I didn't go. Ugh how I wish I had. Oh My My came up on a random playlist and I LOVED it. It lead me to listen to more of their songs and now I can't stop. Just got to see them live 4/14/24 and got to meet Justin!! He is an amazing person. Got a selfie with him and a big hug for my birthday ❤.
This song is actually about when is daughter blue was born. In the beginning of the song it speaks about how him and his then wife and how it's about just them and their selfish ways. But then there is the moment when it's now them and their daughter ("now's there 3 of us in our show"). And how she made him want to get over his addictions.
I felt the same way when I heard this song for the first time. I felt chills and dropped tears as I watched him perform and sing this song
One of my favorite bands ever anything live is great ❤ Justin sings from his heart
Just saw them for the tenth time last month, each time just as incredible as the last. You CANNOT go wrong venturing down the Blue October rabbit hole. Their music over the years is all over the map.

Blue October has been with me through the lows and highs 🥲
I’m commenting again, that last scream, when you just pull back with your eyes closed, that says it all my guy. Fully experienced his power, realness, and voice in that spot!!
Thank you for the amazing reaction! They are my favorite band by miles and miles, and I'm so happy that you enjoyed them. I agree with the others that "Hate Me" would be a great video for you react to as well.
Blue October is one of the most under rated bands ever.. amazing!!! 💙
Have been to multiple blue concerts and every single one leaves you breathless!!! His voice is hypnotizing and powerful. So much hurt in those lyrics and in his performances. Love Justin!!!
Truly one of the best bands to see live. They sound amazing and Justin even signed autographs. He took s selfie with me and have me a huge hug!!! Such a good,genine human being. Definitely a highlight for me!!
One of my favorite bands! Check out Blue October - Fear ( official video). I usually recommend live but the official video for this one is incredible and simple yet so so powerful! Love your reaction!
PLEASE watch their acoustic live performance of Bleed Out. It's soooooo amazing.
Thanks for this! Yes, he emotes every word. I was at this show when they recorded this concert, nothing better. Seeing them again in ks next week and FL in Dec. Honestly, he makes you feel, and we are a family that has grown and healed with and through him. (sounds way too cult like....) check out Light you up, fear, and she's my ride home frome the same show!
I hope you fall down the rabbit hole of blue October and react as you do it!!!! LOVE THIS BAND
Congratulations on finding Blue October! This band is so underrated it's terrible. Has been my favorite band for years. This song is about his daughter. Justin the lead singer is amazing. Better live than in studio. Best live performance I've ever seen. Check out Fear live and studio versions, Worry List, light you up live version, the weatherman.
My absolute favorite! I can't watch him in person without crying. He's phenomenal
Many great songs underrated band by far Justin’s talent for writing songs and making you feel every word is incredible

Aren't they amazing? I saw them live twice and honestly I can't get enough Justin Furstenfeld is amazing.. I am sober 1 year and 8 months now but when I first heard them I was just starting to use and grew up with their music.. when justin got sober I was so happy for him and I wished for one day to be able to find happiness in sobriety like he did.. now I can honestly say I have and the music hits so much harder now then ever before.

I'm going to tell you why this band works so well.. The singer and drummer our brothers, and they have been the same band since high school.. And therefore they have all experienced what everybody personally has gone through in life,which I think helps enhance the song, because I think they all feel for each other situations which comes out in the music.....And I just got to see them at Red Rocks Amphitheater and they sound the same as they do on the record...... If you ever get a chance to see them you should

He has a voice that just pierces you straight to your soul. You should really really REALLY do their song Fear. I can never get over how absolutely incredible this band is live. I recommend the live version after the mv so you can get a sense of the incredible places he takes the song to. Hate Me is of course another favorite, again both the original music video and the live version. You'll be blown away!
My favorite band, all his songs are touching and are about his life,,so great....Fear is amazing song
Blue October is an experience. Check out a show and you will be hooked.
I just started listening to them about a year ago. He is super intense and down to earth. You can feel what he's singing so deeply it almost hurts. Love your level headed reactions 🤟🤟

This is such a special song for me. Thanks for listening to it.
Sooo down for a Blue October journey. They’ve been my favorite for years. Only band so far that I’ve traveled across states to see in concert
I love Blue October and I am so glad I stumbled across your channel!!! On point for sure 💙💙
I have adhd and ptsd. Blue October is my first concert I went to alone. It was such an amazing experience and healing that I went to 2 more on my own. Then I met an amazing friend through the fan page on FB and we went to 2 together. I’ve been hooked since 2019
The live show is unreal ! It still feels like a dream !! He signed my cowboys hat !!
"Hate me" is their radio song... this band is soo much more than that. I've seen then probably 100 times live now.. since back in 96. If you wanna really be amazed you should look up "argue with a tree" or "live in texas" they are absolutely amazing live... argue is early and live in Texas is a bit later, not quite new stuff but these guys are still going strong...

you're right I've never seen anyone sing so well live... there's a mix of Peter Gabriel and fish from Marillyon.. and his voice is so brutal that the others didn't have.... check out the acoustics 😉✌️
I have been a Blue October fan for years. This song came from the album "Any Man in America". He was going through a divorce and custody battle at the time while being a drug addict. He is also has overcome severe mental disorders. Check another song on this album called "The Worry List". Its very emotional about losing visitation of hie daughter because of his drug habit. Also their most famous song is called "Hate Me". Check it out too.
Blue October concerts are like going to "church" with people just as powerful yet just as messed up as you are (and Justin was).
Blue October is my favorite band, hands down!!! All of their music is emotion, and feeling. Justin is the lead singer, and he is extremely gifted!!! I connect with him on so many levels......as I've had a past with drugs and alcohol. January 8, 2023 will be 7 yrs clean and sober for me........His music has helped me so much, and the humbleness he shows is amazing!!!! I'd like to ask you to do a REACTION TO THE SONG FEAR, ITS ALSO BY BLUE OCTOBER!!! I love this band!!!! They are amazing!!!

Their song Moving On is really good
Can you please do more BLUE OCTOBER!?!? Light You Up… Spinning the Truth Around…. Fear….into the Ocean…..pick one. Pick them all!!! 💙💙❤️💙
The record this song is on, Any Man in America, got me through some of the darkest days of what i thought was a great marriage. Thank you Justin. I was able to channel my emotions through your songs
Beware, if you start down the Blue October rabbit hole, you won't be able to turn back. Absolute raw emotion in his songwriting. Love them
Blue October an Justin Furstenfield are absolutely amazing. Justin is a incredible song writer an singer. I really don't know how they ain't bigger than they are.
You should listen to Fear, both the acoustic live version and the newer music video. Two very different feelings to the same song, both amazing. They are absolutely the best live band I have ever seen. I see them live whenever I get the chance. They have so many different amazing songs.

If you never heard of these guys, you have to check out every song of theirs
It's simply impossible to recommend just one more song from Blue October. Their music is an entire journey through Justin's addiction, depression, hitting rock bottom, relationships ending, heartbreak for his baby girl, recovery, finding hope, finding peace, finding faith, the love for their (the band's) families, fighting relapse and depression, fighting fear... If I may, I would recommend (for reactions) "Worry List", "Calling you", "Fear", "Home", "I hope you're happy (the acoustic version)"... Ah man, just listen to all of it 😁
I am new here to your content... But I have been a Blue October fan since the 90s... they have had such a transition over the years from where they were to where they are as a group... so you will have multiple opportunities to see them in all of their versions if that makes sense.. just a tremendous group and they are just as good on the albums as they are live... Justin with all of his power in his voice and his expressive singing is just hands down one of the best I have ever seen... he and the group feed off of each other through their performances and it just comes through so powerfully!
Justin makes my soul weep. He pulls emotions from the very depth of who I am. I’ve been a fan of Blue October for 15+ years and they still make me weak. Stay sticky 💙💙
Thank you for looking into Blue October. If you dive into the fandom that is the Blue Fam, you will see that many of us have had our lives saved by their music. It sounds dramatic and cringe but the way the music makes people feel so much less alone is incomparable. I hope you can continue to look into their music and fall in love with it. Many thanks for a fantastic and deep reaction!
Awesome reaction to an awesome band!!!!! I hit the like and sub and can't wait to see ya check out more Blue October!!💙💙💙
That last scream is just pure fucking goosebumps!!!!
Welcome to the Blue family! Indeed, makes your face twitch. Makes your heart feel things it never has. Watch Fear, live acoustic version.

My, LITERAL, favorite artist!!!!! I’ve seen him 6 times! I could recommend so many (Mainly, because I’m a 36 year old fan girl!!). He use to be an addict, but has been clean for years…. Justin is a boss!

Bleed Out live. It's amazing!
Love it. Keep reacting to these guys!
Is this really your first tome listening to them?! I will never forget the first time I went to a Blue October concert… life changing. You don’t even have to have a history with sobriety or mental health issues to have a deep appreciation for his music. It’s insane! You have to go to a full band concert and also his open book tour which is just him, telling his life story and singing acoustic version and it’s also an incredible experience. It’s so hard to tell you which songs to listen to but the ones that come into mind are Bleed out and Fear. And honestly just make your way through all his music. He is touring right now and tour just started so maybe you can catch a show.

He knows how much his music inspires people. at least with me he does. I met him four times now. I remember meeting him the third time. at the time I was sober for three years. I told him how he was my inspiration, to my sobriety. He told me that he was so proud of me and that I should be proud of myself. He told me to keep up the good fight and never give up or give in. He told me that I mattered to him and I was worth the struggle . He told me that he cared about me. Then he told me he loved me. He then gave me a huge hug 🤗. then said a prayer 🙏 for me.

Light you up live in texas is amazing and also bleed out xo
Please do more blue october. You won't be disappointed
Welcome to the Blue family!!!
Hands down the most POWERFUL lyrics, emotional band I've ever heard. Seen them many times! Actually going to see them again at Hampton Beach, NH tomo (9-23-23) 2nd time this year! Listen to "Songs from An Open book" 1 of 2 of Justin Furstenfeld solo albums. It's AMAZING!!!
Omg.. must listen 🎶 to Calling you... Hate me .. Fear ..
Justin furstenfeld (singer) battled drug and alcohol addiction, severe mental health issues, divorce and separation from his daughter Blue for years. His lyrics are often about those struggles and for the common person who has been through similar struggles he just seems to literally put words to those feelings we cannot express. The POWER of his voice reached deep within my soul and helped me get through my own dark periods in life, I can honestly say I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him. I've had the opportunity to meet him several times and thank him for that, my kids are thankful for him too. Such a genuine individual with his fans and they really are so damn good live. Underrated band for sure, thank you for your reaction and please keep going down this rabbit hole. My suggestions- Fear (acoustic), the worry list, bleed out (acoustic), light you up (live in tx), the answer, into the ocean, all that we are
Light you up from this same concert I think. Talk about emotion 😀
classic. emotional. real music
💙💙💙💙 Greatest most underrated band everrrr They brought me here 😊 Alternative Rock 🙌
Enjoyed seeing someone react to blue October. It’s always me and my reactions by myself when driving so sometimes I wonder would other people experience the same thing as me…it seems you do. Blue October is truly next level…his music is poetry and the poet presents it to us as music with a band. Nothing else like it in my opinion. If I started requesting you listen to other music from Justin the list would end up too long but I hope you do more of his videos. If I were to make a single request please watch “Only Lost is found”. One of the newer ones he’s written and I won’t say anything about it so as to not bias you to any particular interpretation.
While he has had battles with addiction, this song was about the effect of going through his divorce from his daughter Blue's mother.
I've haven't heard this version of the song in a while and it can still utterly destroy me. Damn!
Such a great choice, and I had not seen this particular performance (I saw it live elsewhere during the same tour). Seeing them for the 4th time live in December on my birthday. They always deliver a powerful performance that draws you in and reminds you how alive you are. But even among their many songs and many performances, this one was exceptional. They are cemented in my mind as one of the top live bands I've ever experienced.

Blue October is amazing! Justin definitely writes from the heart and touches your soul. The entire band has grown so much from their early days. I've been a huge fan since I first saw them perform live in Clearwater 2006. I have words from multiple songs tattooed on my body, including "Replace My Heart" down my chest and met the band too many times to count. LOVE THEM.

This guy ripped out his heart and left it lying on the stage, bleeding a sea of tears if that "performance" doesn't make you tear up - something is wrong with you and i say "performance" - not because i think he was acting - just for lack of a better term - (subbed)
Light you up is another great song as hate me. But they are an amazing band with great lyrics and the lead singer is so passionate and real and open ❤️

Light you up Things we do at night is AMAZING
Always happy to see them getting some love. Justin in an amazing lyricist. This is off the album Any Man in America. Justin has said while writing this album he was at his lowest and his drug use was at it's worst. The whole album is about his daughter, his divorce and the custody battle.
I just saw them live for the first time last month in Phoenix. I gotta tell you, they DO sound that good live. No tricks, just pure raw emotional journey.

@@BLUE_OCTOBER-TRIX thank you for sharing about your sobriety. It is a hard and narrow road that so many people I love have lost their lives on. My bio father died by getting hit by a drunk driver when I was 17 years old. I had to watch both my mother and step-father die from organ disease and damage that decades of opiod addiction and methadone caused. My Dad was 59 and Mom was 58. I had to sign papers for them to be taken off life support and watch their last breath leave them. That shit stays in your mind forever. My best friend for 25 years died of an accidental overdose at only 41 yrs old. She used illegal prescription drug that someone laced with fentanyl without her knowing. My baby sister's best friend also died of an overdose at only 22 years old. My baby sister's fiance was shot and murdered while hanging out with a person he purchased drugs from at only 25 years old. And the one loss that has utterly destroyed my life is my son, Keith, who died of an accidental overdose of methadone just after his 18th birthday. Still a baby, really. He'd never used any substances before. He was with his friends and they didn't even understand what they were doing, it looked like a few tablespoons of kool-aid in a bottle but that one sip took my only child's life and shattered my soul. And last year I had to care for my sister the last 2 months of her life. It was cancer that took her, but it was addiction to methamphetamine and really the underlying trauma her whole life that killed her. She was only 39. My kid sister. Living with the pain of these losses is unreal, but they each suffered far worse. I know what you mean about Justin's music being powerful. There are times when all I can do is lay unmoving with tears streaming, and some of those times listening to Blue October made me feel less alone. We are all connected. Our joys and our pain affect each other in profound ways. The darkest places in our minds can suck us in like a black hole, and understanding that was what drew me to their music.... but the light and recovery and SURVIVAL that sprung from the music in the last years happened just as I had to face all these losses. All of what I just mentioned happened over the last 8 years, and I am only 46. I've ended up on disability after almost taking my own life from the grief. I hardly get out of the house anymore, or really even past my driveway, but I went to the concert in a borrowed wheelchair. Man, it would have been something to meet Justin in person, but the tears I had during some of the songs they performed were cleansing and perspective shifting. I am sending you warm thoughts. I am PROUD of you too. I don't know you, but I am proud of the humanity in your struggle and your resilience. This life passes in a heartbeat. The pain we feel just lets us know we are still alive and fighting for the priviledge of seeing another sunrise.

I’m so sorry to hear all that. I have lost many friends too. From this stupid addiction. Actually as i sit here. writing you this in my garage, having a cigarette. My friend died in front of my eyes 👀, a few years ago. only a few feet away from me. in the same spot I am in now. his doctor cut him off of his pain medication. so he turned to using street heroin. It ended up being fentanyl. It was way too strong for him. He did way too much of it. There was nothing I could do to help him. but I can’t imagine all the other loss. that you have been through. I am really really sorry. that happened to you. You seem like a very sweet person. It’s always the good people. that have bad things done to them. Hang in there. It can’t rain all the time. it’s always the sunniest. after the darkest and rainiest storms. I love you 💕 as a fellow human. Your life matters to me. You are worthy of love. You are worthy of happiness. I hope you are having a blessed day. I hope you’re happy. God bless you and yours much peace ✌️, Love ❤️, unity and respect ✊
Great band👏
The song that made them famous is "Hate Me." Great music, but the lyrics are so powerful, so moving, so thought provoking, and more impactful than those of just about any other song one could name.
"Fear" is my favorite of theirs.
I discovered these guys late through Spotify recommending this live album to me, I was blown away by it. Another good example of the emotion he puts into his songs is his acoustic performance of ‘Fear’

Now check out the 18th floor then do Say it.. The music is so different and every album does NOT SOUND THE SAME... They change it up every time
It’s about his custody battle with his daughter’s mother. He wants his daughter to stay with him. She is what makes him feel again. Many of his songs are around this theme and/or his battle with addiction. Suggest acoustic version of Fear.
Definitely about him and his battle with addictions and his relationship/marriage and his daughter Blue, who he had his contact taken away from. Later in life, he got clean/sober and won custody. Him and Blue are like this now 🤞🏽
You have to react to their song Light You Up live if possible. You'll super dig it man, I promise ya.
I think this song is one that can have many meanings depending on the listener and also for the band and singer. Justin is writing about alcohol and drugs, sobriety. He is writing about the loss of his family too. The love of his life. The life they shared. His daughter. Being her life every day. How losing them changed him forever. But mostly this song, to me, is about GRIEF. It's about regrets. Hindsight. Growth, but also the sadness in things you would change if you could push rewind. For me, this song almost always brings me back to watching my sister die a horrible months long death from cancer after I had distanced myself from her because of her going back to addiction and street life. How I wish I had stayed in her life and not walked away. How I wish she had not walked away. How I wish we could have known the end was coming, but not from a terrifying horror that ate alive my sister in front of me that wasn't addiction or choices. I cry when I hear this song, and I remember watching the light fade in Lina's eyes and how she shrunk in the bed like a child, like my kid sister again. How it brought THE FEEL again to me in how it was for the two of us before life broke us both.

That's really his mom on these intros ❤
You need to check out Debris now. Welcome to the Blue Family.
This song is incredible. This album is all about his divorce and his little girl. It’s so beautiful
Hate me live by Blue October.
Go down this discography and enjoy. Pull his old albums before foiled and see the emotion he pours into each album and the growth he has with each album release. His sound grows as much as he does over time and as you listen there may be times you have to look around for the onion ninja that ran through.
