  • I heard this was a bout a girl Justin met when he was a teenager. He slept over at her house, and in this song he is describing how much he wanted her. Anyway, you guys have good theories. Well, most.

  • its about fucking acid people

  • every time i hear this song, it's like i'm listening to the band for the first time again, just completely in awe and wonder at the amazing abilities of this group of musicians. Blue October is DEFINITELY my favorite band.

  • This song is about the first acid trip Justin Furstenfeld had with his friend Ryan (the violin player) during high school. The two boys were hanging out with a few girls at the house of Justin's girlfriend. His girlfriend's parents were home and made the two boys sleep downstairs, separated from the girls, while the girls stayed upstairs. As Justin and Ryan laid together, hallucinating, Justin thought about how much he wanted to be with his girlfriend while they were separated for the night.

  • @supremacyx37 and you know this info how?

    wondering if you know what the name of the song is that was played during the Acousitc Tour, just as show started, no one on stage yet, recorded song was playing, i think it was Justin singing, song about a child, tickling and laughing, haven't been able to find it recorded

  • Where did the pic at 3:09 come from?

  • question. did you get the details from justin's introduction of the song on the answers? just askin lol

  • i thought it was another song about his daughter at first, but then i realized he wasn't even married when he wrote this album!

  • ...

  • @TheGigsixstringAge thanks for sharing !

    loved it man :-)

  • Great song and great music ,,,hust enjoy it as a great form of art

  • is 4: 20 am trying fall sleep listening to Blue October.This part caches my attention. I sleep the sadness that no one Else sleeps. WoW I Sleep my sadness that no one else sees.

  • lol all this bickering over this song can we just look at it as a song and not about blowing weed or doing drugs wtf

  • its about an every day struggle, its about life, its about how they feel, its about how you feel if you feel this way if you dont, your not missing anything and if you do than your missing everything if you dont see life.......

  • The music is so soothing...

  • I kicked and screamed a sin for you must sing. The day I take you, you'll be sleeping. You won't feel a thing.

  • Stop arguing and just enjoy the song, regardless of the subtext. It's amazing. God bless you...all of you.

  • who cares what other people think about what a song means. what it means to you is all that it is in your reality. so keep what ever the fuck you do. you crazy fucking animals:)

  • fuckin you stupid asses that say this song is about weed only a pothead would think that you cock sucking weed smoking dip shits

  • shut up lol

  • a little too slow for me i like fast stuff lol

  • @beckyboles7 then get the fuck outta here lol

  • jesus wtf this song has nothing to do with weed it's about a man coming to terms with his mortality, being frightened at first, and then being comforted by the fact that it won't be painful after all

  • No, actually, he's said himself it's about his first acid trip.

  • @mlh39 why are you telling jebus this? I don't think he cares.

  • @mlh39 I completely agree. Not everything is about drugs, if you think so than you make me sad. This is a great song, just enjoy it people.

  • @mlh39 Thank you =D

  • Blue Sunshine (heaven), Ive got no vacancies (heaven's full), at the top of the clock was Jesus spying on me (god is omnipresent), I spoke of friends

    point me which direction (how do i get there?), I tried a bribe of when I die but swore he never mentioned (life is over when it's over), I kicked and screamed (this situation sucks), "Its simple, you must sing the day I take you, youll be sleeping you wont feel a thing." (nothing to fear). lsd or not, message is the same put down the clift notes

  • @mlh39

    Actually, this song is about the first time that Justin dropped acid. Thats a nice sounding explanation, but in fact, you are incorrect.

  • Blue Sunshine (heaven), Ive got no vacancies (heaven's full), at the top of the clock was Jesus spying on me (god is omnipresent), I spoke of friends point me which direction (how do i get there?), I tried a bribe of when I die but swore he never mentioned (life is over when it's over), I kicked and screamed (this situation sucks), "Its simple, you must sing the day I take you, youll be sleeping you wont feel a thing." (nothing to fear). lsd or not, message is the same put down the clift notes

  • @mlh39 I understand where you're coming from. But will you be offended if I light up a fat joint while kicking back listening to this? Because well.. even if it's not about weed, it's a great song to kick back and relax with a joint to.. Just sayin.. So peaceful.

  • I think it's funny that at 1:20 they used a pic from Smashing Pumpkins. They have an album called Adore and it always written in that same font, so I assume it's from SP.

  • too slow for my taste.

  • i kicked and screamed, a sin for you must sing, the ay had saved you you'll be sleep you wont feel a thing" my fav bit of the song, i love the whole song rilli, and i love the violin at 02:00-02:15 :)P my fav lol

  • and 3:40-3:51

  • @dragpie16

    I kicked and screamed,

    "It's simple, you must sing

    The day I take you, you'll be sleeping

    You won't feel a thing"

    thats the real lyrics and its my fav part of the whole song :)

  • thanks, i couldent find the real lyrics for ages, soz for getting them roung, i dint know so i made it up, my bad :(

  • @norway1516

    *A "sin" for you must sing.* Not "its simple"

  • go look it up jack.....the lyric is "simple"

  • damn icemans a beast lol

  • hell yea:) he is awesome

  • wonder how many thumbs down i can get for my comment..hey IcemanMorton.. loved your comments!!...now wheres my joint??...LMFAO..

  • one of the top drug advisiors has just been booted out he told them NO DEATHS from it..also that drink kills and is worse..they didnt like it so he got sacked..all he said was the truth¬¬..now loads of his peers have resigned in protest...even with medical facts..they don't listen!!!...IDIOTS...give me puff anyday!!

  • I haven't even heard the song yet, still waiting for it to load. But SHEESH people, calm the crap down. Drugs, never a good thing 'less they are simple pain killers or something, assuming people don't OVER DOSE. OMG its like every blue october song on you tube has a debate of some sort about what the song is about, or what people think of the song's meaning, or SOMETHING that SOMEHOW relates to the music.

  • listen to this

    Yesterday I smoked weed. lol, I mean a LOT if weed. If it didnt do any good it sure had me confused. I felt good. Amazingly so. I felt free. For that hour I felt at bliss, my pain was gone, I loved life and everything associated with it. So do me a favor. Smoke some weed. Just once. That is the only way you will be able to realize and make an HONEST judgement about it. Dont worry, its not addictive, and you will not be impared to the point where you will filp out or something.

  • Weed is a natural relaxant and stress reliever. I'd take a joint to an advil any day. Fact: Advil has more addictives in it than Marijuanna.

  • Funny cause "weed' or Marijuana acts as an anxiety inducer for someone like me, causing extreme panic and paranoia.

  • Even Penut Butter reacts badly to some people. Those people dont eat penut butter. My advice to you: Dont smoke weed if it reacts that way to you. Shit, my four year old knows that if something hurts when she eats it, duh, dont eat it again.

  • hate to tell you but there are many deaths due to 'simple pain killer'. Here in the uk there are more deaths from prescribed drugs than road accident deaths!. Any drug can be dangerous..but for hells sake legalise puff!!...heck watch the kids try killing each other on the streets when they are stoned!!!..my point made!..but NEVER EVER A DEATH due to puff alone!!...best page i've found on Y.tube yet..cheers all :)

  • At the top of the clock was Jesus spying on me

    lol i found that line funny

  • Wind your neck in people!

  • theres a type if acid called blue sunshine, its about them trip

  • Lets just throw out a simple known fact that has been the topic for over centurys !!!!

    Marijuana has never once KILLED a smoker, or a group of people smoking. However on the other hand you have cases and cases upon cases of DRUNK DRIVERS, HEROINE USERS and other MORONS who use other various types of drugs that have no case what so ever when compared to POT / Dope / Hemp / GREEN GOLD !!!!!

  • Other than the long term brain damage, yeah, I guess pot kicks ass. It's also fantastic when you take a hit off a laced batch and die, too- no real issue there, after all.

    -blatant sarcasm-

  • Show me a single, Professional, scientific study that has shown that there is long term brain damage caused by weed and I will drop my bong and never touch the thing again in my life (granted I will move on to blunts). There simply is none, and if you are going to give me some government crap just give up now, their research simply coincides with their Drug Free America campaign. And if you are careless enough to smoke laced weed then you shouldnt be smoking it anyway.

  • Wow people are such idiots for the thumbs downs on the subject of marijuana. Everyone knows at least one pot smoker just as much as they know someone who drives a Honda. Or has heard of the word WATER.

    It is the planets ticket out of debt, especially in America where the majority of its population smokes the stuff outside of AMSTERDAM and CANADA and other countrys. Wake up ! It is also used to make clothing and paper etc It is great for the environment, saving trees, stronger then cotton

  • Actually, contrary to popular belief, Marijuana itself isn't addictive. It's the substances that are added sometimes to the weed, usually unknown to the buyer, that people get addicted to.

  • That's still rare. Addiction to weed is VERY rare. And it's NEVER a physical addiction. Not all weed is laced, bro.

  • i agree with you on not all weed is laced. but to have an addiction to plain mj is very common. never a physical addiction? smoke weed everyday for 6 years and try telling me you dont eat, or sleep different after you quit.

  • Drink Beer everyday for six years. Ten bucks says your more fucked up than any pothead that has smoked weed every day for 500 years. :)

  • Mary J is the way to go in this country, we could get out of major debt. Problem is that Dealers and the ghettos and liquor stores and "fast food chains lik McDonalds BK Jack in the box and Taco Bell etc" bring in TOOOONS of money from ther ghettos.

  • Before people sh!t over my spelling I know, I know. I mispelled their and like... DOH!!!

    But on another note, legalize herb. It is such a harmless plant. DRUGS are on a whole' nother' planet with Aspirin and other ridiculous reasons why people are in REHAB and addicted to "DRUGS" the prescription kind... Everyone has tried it , they may not say they smoke it .... When they tell you they dont .... But other then that, We are all taking puffs when privacy allows. In most cases anyways.

  • not true,its the THC

  • this is one of my favorite songs by blue october. the voice, and lyrics are so perfect in this song, and all around. what a great fucking band<3

  • beautiful video, beautiful words, beautiful band.....could I say more

  • i just got home from seeing them @ house of blues, fucking amazing!!

  • It's amazing how much older he sounds nowadays, compared to this song.

  • This song is simply beautiful.

  • pot? screws people up. if you want to do it that your choice. not going to judge you or stop you. but my personal opinion is that i would never want to do it and it doesnt help any.....maybe (mentally)

  • pot is never bad, all those who think it is are closed minded,who are they to tell you what to do with your lungs and mind.

  • hahaha NEVER is a pretty bold statement. I know people who do fine smoking pot everyday but I also know people who have let it ruin them. Saying it's NEVER bad is close minded. It all depends on the individual

  • I've been in a mental hospital before. Never seen such a thing. Schizophrenia has nothing to do with weed. I was sober when i developed it.

  • re read ( i wrote) not all people will go crazy if your genes are good

  • Ha ha. Youre a true retard, a flaming flamingo faggot, lol. You obviously have done your research...NOT!!

    Let me lay down some facts for you...brace yourself now

    1. Weed is not addictive.

    2. If you have smoked weed and have heard voices, you need to stop putting OTHER shit in your weed. That or see a shrink.

    3. One or two hits wont get most people high, let alone make them nuts or addicted

    4. Jump off a cliff

    5. RELAX!!!! I heard weed can help with that too

    I highly recommend #4

  • Lol, unless of course you're smoking White Widow, Blueberry or some good stuff like that. Maybe they have paranoid schizophrenia that's triggered by THC? Or somebody lased their weed with LSD or PCP.

  • If schizophrenia is triggered by THC, there is no scientific research to back it up. lol, even if their was...damn, I'd still smoke it! LSD? PCP? Nope, I'm staying with good old fashioned Mary Jane. Mary Jane, with no STDs. Although, Blueberry Yum Yum...mmmmm.

  • This song kinda starts out a little like One by Metallica.XD

  • lol thats so funny i caught that too........and then scrolled down and read this comment.  take care

  • very nice

  • Excellent!

  • "At the top of the cross was God smiling at me" (I might have misheard that)...why did it show a pot leaf?

    Other than that, BEAUTIFUL. You might want to avoid watermarked pics like the istockphoto stuff, but those were lovely images and most of them fit the song very well = )

    So much violin <3

  • The quote is "At the top of the clock was Jesus spying on me." The pot leaf represents the act in which you know it's wrong, but you still do it.

  • pot is not bad you are misled my wonderful flower

  • Hahahaha, I meant by societal standards.

  • @janeysman pot is illegal though.

  • @janeysman BWAHAHA everybody loves a pick up artist, hope you dont mind i gonna use that one

  • @janeysman lol pots bad if you cant handle its your mind that keeps you strong so if you tell yourself your not high youll be able to handle the high even though your high unless your just baked then usually your asleep or eating or laughing at things that you dont even know what there about pots not gods plant thought man abused, and what else would we do if we didnt smoke it...? Answer is you take some leaves and some bottles of alcohol and dumbem into a bathub/bucket artharitis med

  • why NOT show a pot leaf?it was only outlawed because it was taking over the paper industry becuase it grows faster than trees and can grow all year round.

  • idk i want it to b legal so its easier to get but i dont want the tar and niccotene and shit thats in cigarettes to go into my favorite herb.

  • i love this songg

  • great song

  • I luv' the pics they fit perfictly with this song.

  • love this song to start with but your pics make it even better

  • Thank you, I appreciate it.

  • Geez I thought this was One by Metallica at first. LOL!

  • lol, some times when i hear one i think it is this :P

  • its funny how depressingly amazing this song is. sinks deep into your emotions like water through soil. sadly sometimes when things are so dark you have to find humor in it or else you will collapse under emotional pressure...

  • @MAGICALhobos  nice simile

  • really well made!

  • funny....most people havent even felt pain and lissen to this,i am only 14 and 3 people in my life have been murdered and 1 was my best friend.

  • I don't think you have to have experienced overwhelming pain like that to understand this song. I have struggled through many thing in my life and this song has helped me. This was one of the first songs I ever listened to that actually brought me to tears.

  • It's quite funny

    how most people can go through life not knowing the kind of pain that the fortunate few endure.

    Because guess what? In order to be first you must be last

    and when all you know is pain every ray of sunshine is a blessing.

  • if u listen to it THe right way u would know what it means

  • this is ucking awesome!!!

  • I think you mean "fucking" Andrew

  • blue october quiz. Does anyone know what this song is about?

  • The song was written about a night when he and Ryan were in high school. They did acid with some girls and then spent the night at the home of one of the girls. The girls parents made the boys sleep downstairs and the girls sleep upstairs. The song was written about that night as Justin layed there tripping and looking around at the objects in the room (i.e. a portrait of Jesus) and listening to the tick tock of the clock and wishing he could be upstairs with the girl.

  • yea, but its rly rly good =]

  • amazing video =]

  • Thanks, I didn't put all that much work into it, but I wanted to have some images, because otherwise, audio videos on here are boring as hell.
