Blue october straight up saved my life. I've met Justin twice and by the grace of my own composure, I didn't explode. I had to tell him "I had a gun and I had a plan, then I heard your voice" He saved me with "weight of the world" I'm forever grateful.

I"m 54 years old and have seen more live shows than I can remember. Rush, Zeppelin, Tool, and on and on. I have to say Blue October (seen them 6 times) is my favorite live show. They are extraordinary. Knowing lead singer (Justin Furstenfeld) life story makes their songs even better. If I could only see one live show again as long as I'm on this planet it would be Blue October.

Oh wow you are so lucky! It’s about 15 years since i heared blue october for the first time. I was watching so you think you can dance US. And someone was dancing to 18th floor balcony. I went to youtube right away. The second song i heared was hate me. They have been nr 1 for me ever since. I live in Norway. Was going to see them in england a few years ago. But they changed the date and then i could not go 😣 have VIP tickets and everything. They have never come to Norway. I really hope to see them live one day. It would be the best day of my life. Their live videoes are amazing. You are so lucky to have been able to see them 6 times!

Agree! And I absolutely love Rush!!!

You NEED to do the music video for their song "The Worry List" Incredible song about him and his daughter. The music video helps explain the song really well.

Nobody makes you feel like Blue October. Justin has an acoustic version of Fear that is just pure emotion that you would absolutely love!

That is probably my favourite song of all time, that acoustic version.

Blue October, they never disappoint. Especially live!

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

@@TheAnthonyc9 It was a great show, I only wish they played longer. But perfect performance I say. And what a special place to see a concert.

At first I was like Blue October, wtf, don't need another teenage angst band. Then I listened to your reaction to "I hope you're happy" and my middleaged heart just exploded. Thank you for your reactions and thank you for introducing Blue October to me. ❤

This band definitely HELPED ME the past twenty years through so much shit. Troubles with my baby mama for one. I also dealt with bad depression, really bad. I love Justin

Same here! It’s about 15 years that i have known about them. They have goten me trough Bad PTSD periods. Deaths of people i love and alot more. Justin is the best at delivering emotions. I think their music have been with alot of people trough really hard and really good times. They are what i listen to 90% of the time. There is noone like them i think.

Hes NOT faking anything here. This one sears your soul. Im glad you guys are seeing just how GOOD Blue October is. Justin lays it all out there, no filter, no hiding and is a raw as you get. Keep exploring, especially their later stuff, hes done well. Love you guys

The roar at the end just absolutely breaks my heart. Every bit of pain let out in one mighty explosion of emotion. Thank you for sharing your soul with us ❤️.

I’ve seen them 4 times in concert. He brings this energy to every show. If you get the chance to see them, it’s an experience. A spiritual experience that will give you goosebumps the whole time

Ok new Blue Fam..... now watching WORRY LIST (official video) IS A MUST!!!! His daughters name is Blue Reed. Shes like 15 now. He has a younger daughter Saydie Bell and a son Gunner Black. Blue October started in 1995 outta Houston Tx. Justin Furstenfeld the singer and the violinist Ryan Delahoussaye went to Houston school of visual arts together. Justins has struggled with mental illness, depression, bipolar as well as addiction. You'll notice that alot of time Ryan will be playing the violin and keyboard as well as singing at same time. The drummer is Justins older brother Jeremy Furstenfeld. Fun fact he didn't know how to play the drums but the band needed a drummer so he learned. He now hand crafts beautiful drums!

I'm still loving y'alls Blue October reactions SO MUCH !! 💙

I finally found someone who reacts to more of my favorite band. Thank you 😊 They’ve gotten me through so much with there music.

You definitely have to check out the live version of The Worry List

A live show must be in your future. Best I have ever been too

that was just the two of us to think about.....the start of our show.. that was just the two of us to think about...the stars of our show... NOW THEIRS 3 OF US TO THINK ABOUT NOW...in our show..our show..our show.. every dads worst fear..not only losing your wife...but losing your baby girl

Omg 😳 😢 heartbreaking and beautiful

I was at one of these 2 nights they filmed this DVD. Best night ever, but then again so is every BO show!

Justin sings with the language of the soul

That's what Blue October does. They make you feel their music straight in your soul!

We all chain watch Blue songs! Your not alone 😂 If you ever need a good soul cleansing, listen to all the albums in order.

Love Blue October next you gotta do is worry list from the same concert another song about his daughter

Love your Blue Reactions. You get it.

My favorite band and I love this song. Encourage you to go into their older catalogue which is harder and angrier with the same sung emotion. For more “metal” songs and deep cuts try “The End (Things We Do At Night)”, “Any Man in America”, and “Dirt Room”.

Classic Travis 😁 I thought the same fully Phil Collins at times ❤🤘 love you guys 😁 thanks Matt 🤘😎

You have to do 18 the floor. It's a must then Say it.. goes from type of music to another type of music 🎶

Yippee, so happy that you reacting to Blue October💙🙏💙 Justin is Incredible & his story is one of redemption, in the most beautiful way💙 Please do Worry List & Fear💙🙏💙

Thank you for doing so many reaction videos of Blue October. They are an independent label and, as such, remain under the mainstream radar. It is a shame because they are so incredibly talented musically, lyrically, and emotionally. They have a strong cult following but would love for them to reach the full success they deserve. They are, by far, the best live band I have ever seen

This song is so emotional. It hits deep especially when u see him and how he sings it

Thanks for picking this one; great choice to react to. 🤘Responding to the point that they "added the violin for emotion" (an understandable misapprehension since many bands add strings on single tracks for this reason): Ryan has been there from the start. The violin isn't on every song but it's definitely an integral part of their sound.

So very interesting you mention Phil Collins bc he gets compared to Peter Gabriel often especially this song. 👏

Do more live Blue October, yall are awesome

The bass player is Matt Noveskey and he's from Detroit . I swear he's found the fountain of youth because he hasn't aged at all. The guitarist in this video is CB Hudson. He's not in the band anymore but I've seen him play here and there with them live sometimes. The guitarist now is Will Knaak from Austin Texas but he's leaving for another opportunity and I'm not sure who's coming in after him next. During the lock down Justin figured out all the online stuff and had weekly Tues night AA / hang out with Justin nights. Can't wait to y'alls next Blue October 💙 reaction!

Can't wait - have tickets to their Houston show in April and doing the VIP experience for the first time!

Hell yeah

Justin Furstenfeld is a GOD 🤟

THANKS GUYS! HOPE YOU ENJOYED!!

The Phil Collins reference is interesting. They’re a big fan of Peter Gabriel, the original lead singer of Genesis, before Phil Collins.

There is one live performance of this song I can't bare to watch it must have been shortly after they split because the raw Pain in voice and on his face when he sings this song.....he's actually crying by the end Edit: y'all should watch the official music video is so emotional you can see the hurt on his face it was around 2009 he's in a much much bettet place now mentally emotionally and musically.

react from this concert to the song Derbis....it's amazing song....

Reminded me so much of Peter Gabriel

Please do Worry List! Please please please... And then Fight for love (the live version is the best). These are kind of the before-and-after's of the story of his love for his daughter, Blue.

Do The Worry List music video please

Sounds more like Perer Gabriel then he does phill Collins

Are y'all listening to the content of the material? It helps...

i lost all my life my wife my kid, i was gone at ..well this is one band that gives a f

More a peter Gabriel voice

look up ble and dad she sings better than he does\
