In 2007 I was drowning In a meth addiction I found out I was pregnant and stopped cold turkey it was super ruff I heard this song and realized I needed Serenity 8 months later I had Serenity Dawn she was named for this song because she was my savior she was indeed my serenity I needed
My grandfather quit smoking after a heart attack. I was also told he didn't want me to see him smoking as I had just been born. That was almost 40 years ago. My middle name was taken from his first. We all mis him dearly.
Godsmack shows the World that Wiccans are here to stay. That Witchcraft is Not "Evil". It's where the Dark meets the Light, the in-between, the veil from this Life to the Next🌛🌝🌜
The song ages like fine wine... literally 17 years later and it is just as relevant today as it was back in 2003. Thank goodness for Sully. He is truly a musical genius.
As I sit here and slowly close my eyes I take another deep breath And feel the wind pass through my body I'm the one in your soul Reflecting inner light Protect the ones who hold you Cradling your inner child I need serenity In a place where I can hide I need serenity Nothing changes, days go by Where do we go when we just don't know And how do we relight the flame when it's cold Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing And when will we learn to control Tragic visions slowly stole my life Tore away everything Cheating me out of my time I'm the one who loves you No matter wrong or right And every day I hold you I hold you with my inner child I need serenity In a place where I can hide I need serenity Nothing changes, days go by Where do we go when we just don't know And how do we relight the flame when it's cold Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing And when will we learn to control Where do we go when we just don't know And how do we relight the flame when it's cold Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing And when will we learn to control I need serenity
Ever since I had heart beat radio was on against the walls of the whomb music is all I hear and I hljammed my ass off too these bands great job fellas as Mr.Niel young would say keep rocking in the free world
As an introvert, this song so resonates with me and the need to recharge and be by my self for awhile. Somewhere peaceful, and SERENE. So beautifully put together, the song itself is like a meditation. I am glad to see it has touched so many others in a similar way, even to this day it still does.
My Mom started her journey to the spirit world. This was one her fave bands. She would jam the whole album. Love you always Mom Henri. We'll miss you every day until we meet again....fly high Angel. You're good now!! Thank you for loving me unconditionally. You were the best Mom anyone could ask for.
This song makes me close my eyes and makes me almost cry. This is full of "That something" that touches me deep inside my soul. Thank you for creating this song
God just led me to this song and I’m here to tell you that all things with supernatural beauty that you just can’t quite put to words... those are a taste of God.
The lyrics makes more and more sense the older you get too. It gets easier, even anxiety can go away with experience and sheer power of will. The path is long, treacherous and did I say long? - but it's worth it. Nothing lasts forever, not even the worst of times.
My daughter would have been 10. Her name was Serenity, when I get sad I sit and just listen to this on replay.. I like to think that she was just too special and she was needed elsewhere.
It really, really is. I liked Godsmack all those years ago, I moved on as I grew older. The songs are good but kinda samey. But then you’ve got this song... stuck with me throughout the years, it’s second to none. There is no song that transports me to a different place like this one does.
I remember seeing Godsmack when my daughter was in diapers and she was on Daddys shoulders screaming Godsmack over and over. She is now 25. Time flies. All your fans love all of you and your thoughts on us Thank you guys for all the great music.
@sullyerna_ I got to meet you guys 25 years ago and you guys were awesome. My daughter again wants to see you guys. We are working on Rocklahoma tickets. We will always love you guys and your music.
@sullyerna_ Not yet, but I will figure it out. Is there a way to contact you through chat? And yes, I was shocked when you replied and happy to know you are supported and loved.
I am a nurse and since the change of our world in 2020 I can listen to this song over and over and it help me stay calm and focused to get through the demand of long shift, staff shortages. Thank you for being such a timeless band that can touch so many souls.
I am a guitarist who got 3rd prize in a national guitar competition in India at 2017 and this song will always have a special place in my heart because I was listening to this track on an on before my performance and it sure helped me to perform nicely. I need SERENITY. GODSMACK RULES..
For those that don't know - "Serenity," vocalist Sully Erna reached to one of his idols for inspiration. Not only was Rush drummer Neil Peart a childhood role model for the singer before he traded in drums for a mic and PA, the acrobatic drummer's obsession with motorcycles is one shared by Godsmack's frontman. So, when Erna read Peart's book, "Ghost Rider" -- which is about his experiences hopping on a hog and road-tripping around the country to cope with the tragic loss of his daughter and wife -- the Godsmack singer was so blown away he wrote "Serenity" in tribute".
All the hardships Neil Peart endured in his life in the late 90's are unimaginable. This is a perfect song written for him. R.I.P. Mr. Peart😔❤ Exit the Warrior
This is such a great band and I don't think they get enough attention. They play their instruments well and Sully has that great metal band voice. But he shows his range with songs like this.
My daughter was born 2 days ago. Godsmack is my very first inspiration in every way. We named her Serenity Lynne Ellis. After this song. I love you guys. Thank you. 💜
The lyrics are just different and not a lot of people truly understand what message is being told. This song is timeless and, in my humble opinion, perfect.
Amen. Serenity. Peace. Faith. Hope. Unconditional love. One soul. One heart. 1st. Cor. 13. 11:11. Beautiful positive bright new future with forgiveness for the past. Life is so amazing!!! God's got this!!! Follow your heart. Home.
I named my oldest daughter after this song... I was in a dark place in 2007 and the faceless album helped me through so much. I would find out later, that Serenity is also an old Dorney family name. So my oldest girl is honoring the ancestors as well. Thank you, namaste and blessed be ~Nate
I was visiting a friend in Roanoke, Va in 2010. While in a music store, looking for some Gr8 reggae albums, I was immediately taken in by this song, as it played throughout the store & before leaving, I HAD to know the name of this Band! It's now 5 yrs later & after my Mom passed, 7/7/14... it's just what I TRULY NEED!! #Serenity!!#TheRightPlaceAtTheRightTime!! #RIPMom!!😓💔✌💯
Godsmack has an amazing tendency to produce music that blends the human voice with instrumental acoustics to create a mesmerizing, unified sound that is the equivalent of an auditory orgasm. Voodoo was the first I'd heard from them many years ago and I was hooked. Sully's lyrics are thought-provoking and his voice is perfectly controlled to compliment the musical score instead of being in competition with it like other artists. I feel this deep in the recesses of my brain. It's known that classical music can stimulate neurons and this does as well.
This is WICKED and there is no band in my opinion that will ever compare to Godsmack, I feel as if I can relate to all of their songs one way or another, I love em.Godsmack is my drug now and forever
I have been listening to Godsmack ever since I was born in 2002. Me and my dad bonded through life listening to them. Anytime I listen to Godsmack I call my dad and crank it up.
I’m trying to get Elizabeth Zharoff of The Charismatic Voice to do a deep dive analysis of this song. She recently did one of Godsmack’s songs, “I Stand Alone”. I believe it was her first go at Godsmack, one of my all time favorite bands, and she’s got a terrific music background mostly in opera, so it’s always great seeing her enjoying other genres. I could listen to “Serenity” over and over. There’s a veteran on one of the threads that talks about how he listens to it because it helps him when he’s in a really low and dark place. I think that’s such a fantastic thing about songs like this. Hope you’re doing well.
I will never forget the day I first heard this song. I was 12 in 2006 and already was considering "ending it". I had it all: A suicide note and a rope under a step stool. I was actually playing the Faceless album cd to hide the noise of what I was doing. As I put the noose around my neck, the last song (Serenity) started playing and I decided to listen to it. Long story short, I am still here and will be turning 25 next month.
Not much keeps the demons away these days but reflecting on this song and lyrics from years past not only keeps them at bay but puts them to sleep long enough to function. Listen to this EVERY DAY.
This song is about Addiction. --and getting sober. VOODOO to me, is about Addiction--specifically heroin--but I believe ANY addiction. I am blessed to have 9 1/2 years sober--and these two songs keep it real for me. Addiction sucks --the only reason I am not a heroin addict is I didn't "get to it"....an addict is an addict. ODAAT
this song is not about addiction, it is a tribute to the drummer from the band RUSH. His daughter and wife were killed in a accident. He rode a motorcycle over fifty thousand miles in one year to clear his head instead of killing himself over the loss of his two ladies. Sully says this on one of their videos, watch " an evening with GODSMACK" it's just over an hour long. let me know if you find it. have a great day.
and about voodoo Sully stated that this inspiration was the film The Serpent and the Rainbow, a film of voodoo and witchcraft... again NOT addiction....
I'm naming my daughter if It's a girl serenity I loved this song since my mom showed me all the songs and I was 12 I'm 26 and still a fan love you guys
We love bands because of the unike Ness of the lead singer he or she treats the vibe if there is only one sound what's the piont that's why we comment I'm drunk what do I know
This song and the greatest hits CD got me through my divorce and the hards times that followed,it saddens me i wont be able to see them when they come to tampa
I listen to this song everyday I am a recovering addict and a lot has happened and this song reminds me of what I lost dear to me so I serinty today godsmack is the best band to ever play
@@kaylasoappp thank you so much love just picking up the pieces starting life all over all alone it's hard at first but if we can get through the life we live being an addict we can get through this thank you you're so beautiful
Sully Erna has a voice like no other & Godsmack is amazing. I can close my eyes and become totally absorbed in this song. It's one of the few things that helps me relax when my anxiety is out of control. Thank you Sully and the rest of the band! You have no idea how much your music means to me. ♥️
Whos listening to this masterpiece in 2024?? 👍
I am ❤❤❤❤
Amen
The Charismatic Voice brought me back for another listen! Love these guys!

Glad you are still here
I'm glad something stopped you. The world would be a lesser place without you in it.
No
We're glad you're still here!
Godsmack is one of those rare bands that get better with every album and doesn't change to fit in
Nah. Nothing after this album was as good.
Bruh their new songs are bad.
Their new album is literally them trying to be Shinedown
Sgt. J. Peace
Tool also
I never get sick of listening to Godsmack. Sully Erna has to be one of the top male vocalist of all time.
Without a doubt
Wierdos
Sully is one of the most talented musicians . He can play so many different instruments it's crazy .
Serenity Sequeria How do you say “wierdos” when you were probably named after this song? Lmao
Pretty sure he thinks of himself as another Robert Plant
I'm 61 and this song gives me goose bumps. What a voice this dude has. Awesome!!!
Bumps in the pumps ahhh serenity now everyday should be Festivus dreamer you know I'm a dreamer ...
This is sully erna
Me too... I love this song 😍
He's BadAss💋🤘😜
😎😘
Godsmack shows the World that Wiccans are here to stay. That Witchcraft is Not "Evil". It's where the Dark meets the Light, the in-between, the veil from this Life to the Next🌛🌝🌜
The original religion was wiccan.. I may not practice it but am a firm believer in love of nature ..
2:44 I love the smile in Sully's face. May we ALL be able to laugh that deep. Best wishes and stay safe everybody ✌️
This song is helping me now in 2020. These guys are timeless
The song ages like fine wine... literally 17 years later and it is just as relevant today as it was back in 2003. Thank goodness for Sully. He is truly a musical genius.

This song is absolutely kick ass
@@619manify from another woman... Don't flirt on youtube...Cringe.
What drugs ?
As I sit here and slowly close my eyes
I take another deep breath
And feel the wind pass through my body
I'm the one in your soul
Reflecting inner light
Protect the ones who hold you
Cradling your inner child
I need serenity
In a place where I can hide
I need serenity
Nothing changes, days go by
Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control
Tragic visions slowly stole my life
Tore away everything
Cheating me out of my time
I'm the one who loves you
No matter wrong or right
And every day I hold you
I hold you with my inner child
I need serenity
In a place where I can hide
I need serenity
Nothing changes, days go by
Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control
Where do we go when we just don't know
And how do we relight the flame when it's cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control
I need serenity
Control is an illusion!!
Love it thank you!!!!

It's okay. It's hard to remember others are there and worse .. when they show up! Thankfully, I have a parrot and cats! You're not alone.
Thar desert in India is a good place to start ;)
We all need serenity.
My daughter's middle name is Serenity and I just discovered this song. This is the 12th song on the album, and she is due on the 12th
That's a sign

Look at the lyrics and see it. God is talking.
This song helps me calm down when i have anxiety attacks. My all time favorite song!
Mine too, same reason...
Same reason pal!
Agree my friend, never get sick of listening Godsmack !
I love this song! Will have to try listening to it the next time I have an anxiety attack. Thanks for sharing.

Of all the musicians passing away in my 45 years on Earth Neils hit me the hardest. R.I.P Neil Peart!
My favorite band in the world. The dueling drums between Sully and Shannon is extraordinary.
Play this on the radio again
With Tidal you can create your own radio stations

The music never seems dated regardless the age of the song. Still feels current. Plus best of Godsmack, the music has a meaning, that most can relate!
I put on my headphones and sit back and take this song all in and it takes me somewhere else,peaceful with serenity.

Just saw them last week in Arkansas
He's really channeling the spirit of Layne Staley in this one, and it's awesome.
Yeah this sounds a lot like AIC, the harmonized vocals, the riff, the calming yet sad vibe of the song, Sully even looks like Layne in this video

Dang your a true fAn
100 people can hear 1 song and get 100 different meanings from it. And that's the great gift of music.
and about voodoo Sully stated that this inspiration was the film The Serpent and the Rainbow, a film of voodoo and witchcraft... again NOT addiction....

I'm naming my daughter if It's a girl serenity I loved this song since my mom showed me all the songs and I was 12 I'm 26 and still a fan love you guys
I'm 56 and I love this band and his voice!! I start out my day with alexis playing Sully Erna.❤❤
I'm 56 too. I don't listen to tnhis song. I FEEL it.
Some people like Godsmack and some people don't. Sully's voice isn't up for debate though.
We love bands because of the unike Ness of the lead singer he or she treats the vibe if there is only one sound what's the piont that's why we comment I'm drunk what do I know
So True!
One helluva voice. Turns me on. Lol
If you like rock you can’t not like Godsmack. If you don’t you don’t like rock. Period.
I can sound EXACTLY like this!
Genius! Serenity in a place I can't hide.
My inner child says thank you.
The best cure for this moment in time!!!
Love you baby sis,Val RIP.........
Damn. What a combination of voice, lyrics, melody and the music notes themselves. This here really is art.
one of the best songs ever! love it
One of those songs that can get you through tough times, just powerful
This song and the greatest hits CD got me through my divorce and the hards times that followed,it saddens me i wont be able to see them when they come to tampa
Godsmack needs to make music like this again
Best slow calm rock, aint too slow or calm
I listen to this song everyday I am a recovering addict and a lot has happened and this song reminds me of what I lost dear to me so I serinty today godsmack is the best band to ever play

Sully Erna has a voice like no other & Godsmack is amazing. I can close my eyes and become totally absorbed in this song. It's one of the few things that helps me relax when my anxiety is out of control. Thank you Sully and the rest of the band! You have no idea how much your music means to me. ♥️
Hey 👋,, how are you doing today; how’s everything going over there 👉 hope it was a blessed day for you Rochelle?
This song, still to this day, calms me down after a rough day.
