This song, this version, got me through the death of my husband. I was gifted it from the universe a few days after the tragedy. And I wore it out, listens to it 1000 times at least. And it was so special to me. Thank you 🙏
❤Hallo!! SOS Mother and Father of all creation are here in the physical in person on earth to show the way to healing. phone home today!!~ It's been trillions of years journey for Mama Papa to reach all on earth to wake up to this truth !!! This is an urgent call to all reading this message!!
My ex was a big Blue October fan. He passed away 6/16/19. We always have had a very deep love for each other and neither of us wanted to split up but he had some addiction issues and I had to leave him since I have kids. My heart broke nine years ago when I left. He struggled with his disease and was in and out of rehab. Paul was my soul mate and even though we separated, he always had my heart. He was kindhearted, generous, loving and protective. The day after he passed away, I begged for some sign from him and this song came on. It was the first time I’d heard it. I know he sent it to me. My daughter heard it with me and she’s the one with the Dr Pepper eyes and I’m the one with the bubble gum pink hair. Spirit works in mysterious and wonderful ways. Now, I see his face in everything. The sky, shadows, the light shining on the leaves of trees, behind my eyelids when I close my eyes. I dream of him and I wonder how this world still exists without him. I loved him so much. He was my best friend. RIP my Love. Until we meet again.
I lost my father to Corona last year. he was only 54 years old. He left overnight. He celebrated Blue October. A few years ago we were in Cologne for a live session. I miss him incredibly. Even though it's a song about lost love, it reminds me a lot of my father. Love you dad!😢❤
My dad last week. I made a custom tshirt to wear with my dad's face on it with these lyrics on the back to meet Justin in November of this year. This song reminds me of my dad, too.
Gotta love a song how the original and the acoustic can give you two different feelings. The original makes me happy and realize I deserve better, while this version makes me sob uncontrollably. Great song. Great voice. Just flat out amazing talent.
Yes! Two very different emotions are evoked, and make me think about different things. Both of them are so damned powerful. If you read comments, Justin... Thank you. Thank you for this. For all of it. 💔💙
My parents split up when I was 18. I’ll never forget the confusion and the hurt, because we all want to believe our parents are in love. My mom was the one who left, and my dad took it really hard. He was so bitter and depressed for so long but he always said he’d do anything for her. He passed away when I was 19 and my mom sent me this song after he passed and said that a few months before he got sick, they had a long talk and he was himself again, he had forgiven her and himself, and was happy she was with someone new. She told me he sent her this song. I listen to it several times a week and although it makes me cry so hard it feels like it brings me peace. To know he hopes she is truly happy, and now he’s in Heaven watching over us. I feel like it’s his song to me, to really keep me going.
As of two days ago, my wife said she’s not happy and wants to call it quits. I know I’ve fucked up throughout the years but this is absolutely killing me. This song is singing my soul right now
I'm so sorry, hurts like hell I know. .. my bf is leaving me after two years because he said he was never happy and our relationship was "garbage". Maybe its all for the best but this song kills a hurting heart fr
I just saw Blue October last night at Jannus Landing in St Petersburg, FL (11.3.2018). Wow!!! They get better and better. I've seen them before - three times to be precise - Justin has come of age. I will always be a fan of Blue October. I fought depression hard in the early 2000s and connected with his/their earlier stuff in the mid to late 2000s. Hopefully life is a journey however and for those of us that struggled to fight through it, there have been so many great moments in life. He brings that thought to life as he makes peace with his past and falls harder for his wife Sarah and his kids. His lyrics tied together with his melodies are haunting. Same thing now that he's finding ways to escape his former self. This song is great. His acoustic version of "hate me" last night left chills. He would only start signing it if we all turned our flashlights on on our phones so he couldn't see the faces in the audiences. I have a new found respect and love for his/their work.
Folks, the human will to overcome is an awesome thing. I've had drug addiction problems for over 20 years, I've just come out of an unhappy 15 year relationship, 3 kids. And I have met the most amazing girl in the world, she has helped me beyond words, with everything. Somebody who really gets, and understands me. Im 37 now, that's how long it took me to find my missing part. Something I didn't believe existed. The world stops spinning for nobody, don't stand still for it THE 1, the real 1 is out there, lookin for u too.
I was a huge depressed Blue fan when I was a kid and when they got their moment of fame I complained that the more it felt produced the less soul it had. This reminds me of why I loved them. Just this dude singing with his heart on his sleeve.
Why the hell am I sobbing...I've lost some good woman to my own demons...but always had unconditional love towards them and wanted them happy..I'm now finally..at frigging 55 years old a solid, good man...I'm so sorry for those I've hurt or lost along the way...what a song..
Both versions of this song helps my heart for the women that i lost on a four-wheeler accident almost 2 years ago. I hope she was happy before she took her last breath. I know our child is happy. We have a very beautiful, very caring women now. It's still hard..... I can't say this to her but I can to you all.
This man and his band have always found a way to save my life. I feel like I've been on this journey with Justin. This song means a lot to me for the two people in life I never thought would betray me and they betrayed me together. I've been trying so hard to let go and I've been happy myself. But there are days when it still crushes me. Thank you for writing from your heart and soul.
Think this is for Meime, he broke up with her because he was going through stuff and I think he wanted to protect her from himself and his demons, she is the same girl he wrote Calling you and Hate me
This man saved my life. Hate me was the life saving song and I'm so glad I've followed them all these years! Thank you Justin for sharing so much of yourself! Your music still keeps me going!
I hope they see all their fans comments, I’d like Justin to know I listen to them, study the lyrics, every song allows me to push on every day, thank you fellas
I just found this band too. They are amazing. I heard a couple of their songs before but didn't know who they were. I haven't stopped listening to their songs for a week now. Over an over.. Lol.. Love his voice.
I love your voice, and you sing with such passion, And love your tattoos that I can see. My dream one day is to find some who would take all my poems I wrote and make a song out of them, I can't sing at all lol . Keep playing awesome music ❤
No words for how much this song means to me... it saved me from hate... made me remember that we were in love at one point and that it's OK that we didn't work out im sad we didn't wish things would have been different... I'll always have your back .... I'll always have love for you... I'll always have a part of you too.... missing you so much this morning soooooo much
I remember living in Wimberly Tx when life was so simple and pure. "I hope you're happy" speaks to my soul as I sit in the Koz House in San Francisco doing my daily chemo radiation treatments. It's nice looking back at life when it was so pure. Jason your song speaks to this old guy's heart, and brings peace when I needed it the most. Glad you're sharing your higher power. Thanks Jody McKenty
I've listen to this song over and over for a year. I love the song and need to hear it.. When I listen to it like this it made me cry. 11 years of hurt and sorrow. It clicks different when it soul to soul. Thank you.
4/31/20 is the day my 4 year old's father passed away from an overdose. He played this to me all the time when we together in the last almost 6 years. Now im just sitting here in tears because he wasn't the best to me(he had BPD and problems with addiction) and all I have to give my son is this song and one letter that he wrote that says how happy we were going to be and how excited he was for our baby. So it's just ironic that the one person that played this to me almost every day left our son fatherless.
damn...i just heard this song for the first time while driving through indiana last night. i was kicking myself for not writing down the chorus lyrics when i got home. i kept finding some country duet. but alas... i love how some songs are timeless and even though it's not a new song, it's new to me and it's still potent.
I remember when "Into the ocean" came into my life. Blue October have always said the words must of us were afraid to admit nor say. Yet, agreeing to the lyrics made us NOT feel alone. Made us connected because we are human. Which means others feel the same. Thank you Blue October
Justin is one of the more underrated songwriters and musicians. He continues to grind and make good music over a long period of time. It’s not hit after hit, but really good music. Most modern bands make one maybe two albums and fade off into obscurity. They had one smash hit, but keep making good music.
This song reminds me how important it is to not only try and convey a message, but to have it understood. To hope the best even if it doesn't involve you. I am so grateful for their music, and how far they've come in their own struggles.
Stu. Listen to this and try to be happy again. I love you more than you've ever known, more than I could ever say. Thanks for being a great person, thanks for all the memories and just being so great. Thanks for the fish, I've never known true love. I had it, with you, it was amazing. Move on, get by and live and take care of everything. You'll be great, you're great, you're amazing. I loved you with everything. I appreciated everything. I love you, always.
My soul craves this year after year I come to this and play it over and over and over til I feel a little peace thank you for sharing ur soul with us 💛
Omg, this version is so much better, I like the official too,, Seems like I'm growing up side by side with blue October.. Into the ocean was the song that made me stuck with the amazing band..... Love from india
This version is 110% better than the original version. I heard the original version and thought, “what’s the crap is this?!” Also, the the emotion that he puts into it makes it so much better!
This song brings me comfort , me and my wife separated and I just want her to be happy even if it's not with me ,I'm bawling at the moment I miss her and love her and always will.
This song, this version, got me through the death of my husband. I was gifted it from the universe a few days after the tragedy. And I wore it out, listens to it 1000 times at least. And it was so special to me. Thank you 🙏
Music has healing properties. You'll be ok. Take it slow.
This song truly gets better with age.

Yeah it does 52 years old. Lotsa damage in our lives😢 it is what it is.
"I remember how we TRIED and WE TRIED!" oooooff my favorite part of the song.
My favourite is days falling apart it don't stop 😭
Goose bumps everytime!
Same😭😭
My favorite part too. No doubt. heartbreaking. But hopeful.
Sucks being a human... and that is the best we can do.
He brings out the quiet moments of sadness I can't forget... in the most loveliest of ways.

Sorry to here that.. makes me cry every time I listen to this... can't wait to see them in December

Gotta love a song how the original and the acoustic can give you two different feelings. The original makes me happy and realize I deserve better, while this version makes me sob uncontrollably. Great song. Great voice. Just flat out amazing talent.
Well said
Yes! Two very different emotions are evoked, and make me think about different things. Both of them are so damned powerful.
If you read comments, Justin... Thank you. Thank you for this. For all of it. 💔💙
The original " Hate Me" and the acoustic do the same thing .... awaken completely different emotions inside my soul.
Exactly. Well said. 💙
I"m there as well.
Who else is here in 2024

Love, Justin.
Yes sir

progression through solidarity. we've all been there and it helps to have others there to shoulder the hurt with you.
All of this video is amazing. However, that bridge (starts at 2:06) KILLS me. So beautiful.
Sean Cummings yep that’s about when I started bawling 😭
Sean Cummings yes!!
This song is every single thing

THE 1, the real 1 is out there, lookin for u too.
So we just ignore that this might be one of the best songs ever sung. What a voice. What a message
The BEST singer/songwriter of all time
Jeez....This guy just gets better and better and better..........Its amazing
I was a huge depressed Blue fan when I was a kid and when they got their moment of fame I complained that the more it felt produced the less soul it had. This reminds me of why I loved them. Just this dude singing with his heart on his sleeve.
How could one ever give this a thumb down???
Why the hell am I sobbing...I've lost some good woman to my own demons...but always had unconditional love towards them and wanted them happy..I'm now finally..at frigging 55 years old a solid, good man...I'm so sorry for those I've hurt or lost along the way...what a song..
It’s unanimous you must put this version on an album. Rehab after rehab and I haven’t been able to find any peace. But your music gives me hope.
SOO UNDERRATED!
Totally! Awesome in concert.
Beautiful, absolutely amazing
Both versions of this song helps my heart for the women that i lost on a four-wheeler accident almost 2 years ago. I hope she was happy before she took her last breath. I know our child is happy. We have a very beautiful, very caring women now. It's still hard..... I can't say this to her but I can to you all.
I heard a very old lady working at a store listing to this I asked an now I listen to this when I'm coming down it's great
This song hits me so hard in the feels. Hauntingly melodic and bittersweet. It hurts more than I can explain. I love it.
This man and his band have always found a way to save my life. I feel like I've been on this journey with Justin. This song means a lot to me for the two people in life I never thought would betray me and they betrayed me together. I've been trying so hard to let go and I've been happy myself.

This song is special to me because my big sister died in it played at her funeral
It was so beautiful and so personal...
Whoever broke his heart is probably now thinking “damn why did I leave him”
Yes!!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
They had their reasons.
Think this is for Meime, he broke up with her because he was going through stuff and I think he wanted to protect her from himself and his demons, she is the same girl he wrote Calling you and Hate me

So wonderful. We love seeing blue October in concert. They come to the cotillion in Wichita often.
I connect with this song on a personal level, I like it a lot. Good job
Never heard this before. Never even heard of this band but God Damn this is good.

Apparently there are tone deaf people giving thumbs down. . This is super great.
I always cry when listening this, and always replay many times...
I saw you first on the Tonite show. Now you are as deep as ever. To me seeing you is a must as you sing for it completes
damn...i just heard this song for the first time while driving through indiana last night. i was kicking myself for not writing down the chorus lyrics when i got home. i kept finding some country duet. but alas...
i love how some songs are timeless and even though it's not a new song, it's new to me and it's still potent.
Such a simple song made so complex and dynamic by his vocal performance. He could make the alphabet song gut wrenching.
My wife just left me, but this makes sense.
Beautiful.. hits hard
Please put up a prayer for my daughter. She's lost, alone, hurting and using in SF,CA. Born there done that. Thank you 🙏
I remember when "Into the ocean" came into my life. Blue October have always said the words must of us were afraid to admit nor say. Yet, agreeing to the lyrics made us NOT feel alone. Made us connected because we are human. Which means others feel the same. Thank you Blue October
Sounds amazing!
Beautiful solo voice! Awesome!💞💞

How could you dislike this song, it is so calming.
Thank-you Soupie, I hope you're happy too (Always & Forever)...
Lost my wife after 16yrs and kids to a nasty divorce....this song kills me to this day...such an emotional connection to hurt..
I do understand him, loving his kid. But band is going down in flames with those lyrics.
At the end of the video he says "thank you"... No Justin... Thank YOU for this.

This version is 110% better than the original version. I heard the original version and thought, “what’s the crap is this?!”
Also, the the emotion that he puts into it makes it so much better!
Beautiful song just found out about blue October recently but your an amazing band

Didn't expect to cry.
