When this song came out I was struggling with my mental health due to anxiety. I would leave my desk at work and walk around the block while listening to this song. I'd have tears streaming down my face the entire time. I knew the message this song was telling me was "your fears are all in your head. You can overcome them". However, I couldn't even with this incredibly amazing song. Shortly after I finally get the meds I needed to crush the anxiety. Here I am 4-5 years later and thriving! Don't let whats in your head hold you back from fulfilling your potential and living your best life. It is ok to seek help!
Beautiful track... and the lyrics no matter what new album it is always seems to coincide with what I'm needing to hear at that point in my life... this band is beyond spiritual to me
Absolutely agree with that! Same with me. The lyrics of each album when they come out always truly coincide with my life at the same time. It's truly spiritual.
Amen I agree. This song got alot of flack once it leaked.. but I personally love it. The ones who criticized are folks who are into bands like ICP and shit.. so I don't listen to others opinions or "reviews".. music Is subjective. People receive it differently. I will never listen to another "review" again on an album prior to hearing. Learned that already.. cuz like I said.. this song is phenomenal and the review kind if tainted me going into the song
#Spoken 🙏🏼 I feel ya feel ya FEEL YA feel ya on the synchronicities of hearing newly released 311 "coincidentally" being EXACTLY what I NEED to hear to keep it going East.
About 20 years ago, while volunteering at my daughters' school, I would play "All Mixed Up" in my oldest's 5th grade glass. They knew the lyrics, would sing along, and dance their little asses off. I used the song to encourage strong self-esteem, and instill a sense of empowerment. Here in 2020, this lyrically precious song would do the same job.
Why do I stay inside I should be living life Instead of watching through the window No use in playing safe Not gonna hesitate I know the storm is only mental I'm letting go Giving up the control Yeah I'm ready to Go wherever the wind blows I wanna see Where the road's gonna lead Time is ticking and The world is not waiting on me I've been dodging raindrops for far too long These clouds over my head they won't move on I've been dodging raindrops Trying not to get wet I've been dodging raindrops for far too long Dodging raindrops But they're all in my head, all in my head But they're all in my head, all in my head Sooner or later it comes As quick as it comes it'll go Whatever is blocking the sun It's only for a moment Running away from my past It's pushing me out of my zone Pulling me under the gun Into the unknown I'm letting go Giving up the control Yeah I'm ready to Go wherever the wind blows I wanna see Where the road's gonna lead Time is ticking and The world is not waiting on me I've been dodging raindrops for far too long These clouds over my head they won't move on I've been dodging raindrops Trying not to get wet I've been dodging raindrops for far too long Dodging raindrops But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head (I've been dodging raindrops) But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head (I've been dodging raindrops) But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head Ready to go outside And to be livin' life Instead of watching out the window I've been dodging raindrops for far too long These clouds over my head they won't move on I've been dodging raindrops Trying not to get wet I've been dodging raindrops for far too long Dodging raindrops But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head (I've been dodging raindrops) But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head (I've been dodging raindrops) But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
There are four songs in my life where I will always remember the place and moment that I heard them for the first time. Two of them are by 311: "Down" and now "Dodging Raindrops." Man I love this band.
Over and over again. The nights wasted praying for death. I hope they can all have a good laugh about it because if justice still counts for anything they shall suffer for eternity
I like to digest the music before I critique it, this one is the first one from this album that i absolutely cannot stop listening to, except for the early releases of course. This one has so much heart in it, it's amazing what you guys can do to bring that down home heart felt feeling. Tears
Saw you guys in Indy and it was so much fun. It was so cool the crowd had a great time with you and your supporting bands were great warm up. Dirty Heads closed, but you were really the best band always! Thanks 311 as both my sons took me to see you guys!! 29 Years Young band 311 they grew up with you guys. Your 13th LP is Awesome too!!
A very Bob Rock-produced type of song. Love it! Sounds like it could have been on Uplifter that was released just TEN years before this album. This should be the next single and I am not kidding.
Man, I’m not sure if Nick or SA wrote that whoever it was I’m willing to bet they are an introverted, intuitive, feeler, perceiver. (INFP). Awesome song and lyrics.
DODGING RAINDROPS LYRICS Why do I stay inside?

Thank you for everything,My entire life. Notably when I took shrooms my first time and I gave up violence. Never gone back. For making me face myself Love the world and realize it wasnt out to get me. I was out to get it all. But nothing is there for me if my arms are closed. For walking me through the death of my Father. My Grandmother and two dogs. The things my parents couldn't because I was too out of control. I'm 33 and no adult history because I turned a beautiful disaster into amber,the down is gone,And I'll be here for awhile.
I sat down in the middle of my kitchen floor cried like a little bitch the first time I heard this track. I guess that was the shove I needed, because I've actually been out living life since that day instead of simply existing. It's been the most amazingly beautiful summer, and I don't think I've ever been more inspired by a song.
Amazingly good .. YoU are definitely up with the times of 2019- 2020 .. Time to work with Scott again Stick Figure .. Create something Great cuz YoU can. 'Idaho'
while I do actually like this song, i'm kind of annoyed. In the song credits are john feldmanm, khalid, marshmellow, matt malpass, nicholas furlong....is this 311 or not?? how about another album where all the songs are written by nick, sa, tim, chad, and pnut
stereolithic wasnt produced good and its not that great honestly. mosaic and voyager and even universal pulse are better listens. i dont hate the album by any means but stereolithic is NOT representative of a perfect modern 311 sound by any means. voyager is best album since evolver hands down. they were incredible last night!

So true. 311 always sends a message I need to hear in that point in my life.
#Spoken 🙏🏼
I feel ya feel ya FEEL YA feel ya on the synchronicities of hearing newly released 311 "coincidentally" being EXACTLY what I NEED to hear to keep it going East.
"Happens all the time
Get in line
And go comatose."
*The odds*
Absolutely love this band and the message every single time.
How is this song not on the radio??? This is a summer jam all day! So is this album!!!!!!! 311 forever
yup
311 is so far beyond radio. Radio doesn't deserve this.
@@merickful I agree. I can't stand radio these days! But if they played jams like this it would be more respected
It is on the radio. Has been for awhile
@@Gillysaurxx I think they mean to say why didnt it chart top 40 pop charts instead of alternative rock? I mean thats what im wondering.
This song just melodically and harmonically sounds beautiful. Even though 311 likes to be underground, I was thinking "This should be on the radio"
Amazing song. This album is a masterpiece
Yes it is and no it isn't
Yes it is and YES IT IS!!!!!!
#Spoken
This song is incredibly catchy! Been listening all day. Needs to be the next single
Great harmonizing in the background. Have loved 311 since the 90's. I am now 36. Thank you for decades of good music. 💯🙌❤️
Lyric wise this is my new favorite song👊

Why do I stay inside
I should be living life
Instead of watching through the window
No use in playing safe
Not gonna hesitate
I know the storm is only mental
I'm letting go
Giving up the control
Yeah I'm ready to
Go wherever the wind blows
I wanna see
Where the road's gonna lead
Time is ticking and
The world is not waiting on me
I've been dodging raindrops for far too long
These clouds over my head they won't move on
I've been dodging raindrops
Trying not to get wet
I've been dodging raindrops for far too long
Dodging raindrops
But they're all in my head, all in my head
But they're all in my head, all in my head
Sooner or later it comes
As quick as it comes it'll go
Whatever is blocking the sun
It's only for a moment
Running away from my past
It's pushing me out of my zone
Pulling me under the gun
Into the unknown
I'm letting go
Giving up the control
Yeah I'm ready to
Go wherever the wind blows
I wanna see
Where the road's gonna lead
Time is ticking and
The world is not waiting on me
I've been dodging raindrops for far too long
These clouds over my head they won't move on
I've been dodging raindrops
Trying not to get wet
I've been dodging raindrops for far too long
Dodging raindrops
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
(I've been dodging raindrops)
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
(I've been dodging raindrops)
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
Ready to go outside
And to be livin' life
Instead of watching out the window
I've been dodging raindrops for far too long
These clouds over my head they won't move on
I've been dodging raindrops
Trying not to get wet
I've been dodging raindrops for far too long
Dodging raindrops
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
(I've been dodging raindrops)
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
(I've been dodging raindrops)
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
Wow it’s the whole lyrics
o man this song is epic. Went to my first 311 show in 1997, timeless
My first 311 show was also in 1997.
This is a great track for the radio. One of the best on the album.
I love this song! So glad the official release is here! I got like 5 copies of the album on the way.
I didnt dodge a single raindrop during the atlanta show. I fking loved every second every drop every hit.
It was an awesome show
My favorite song on this album
Love this song. Really speaks to me.
There are four songs in my life where I will always remember the place and moment that I heard them for the first time. Two of them are by 311: "Down" and now "Dodging Raindrops." Man I love this band.
Just saw 311 play on Saturday August 3rd here in Tampa Bay FL with the dirty heads, rocking show!! I wish i could see them both again ✌💕
Old school 311 with new school twist? Thx mello! See u in a few days boys!!
Let’s go!!!! 3-11-3-3-11
Just what I needed to hear to remind me that it’s all in my head...all in my head
Over and over again. The nights wasted praying for death. I hope they can all have a good laugh about it because if justice still counts for anything they shall suffer for eternity
Another great one. Love 311 always
I like to digest the music before I critique it, this one is the first one from this album that i absolutely cannot stop listening to, except for the early releases of course. This one has so much heart in it, it's amazing what you guys can do to bring that down home heart felt feeling. Tears
So positive and uplifting. Man I love 311! Keep going guys!
the sounds on this album ❤️
I still miss you over this.
Yup. 311 never fails. Great track!
This is such a great song!
This album is the first good one since Soundsystem. I think they found their (grass)roots again. They found me again too.
Great job dudes. I love it.
Everyone I have played this song for loves it.
Excellent stuff- Soul power man.
I love this new album and especially this song!❤️
Saw you guys in Indy and it was so much fun. It was so cool the crowd had a great time with you and your supporting bands were great warm up. Dirty Heads closed, but you were really the best band always! Thanks 311 as both my sons took me to see you guys!! 29 Years Young band 311 they grew up with you guys. Your 13th LP is Awesome too!!

Just perfection- best band ever 💕💕💕
Thank you Pnut

Hexum is such a great songwriter.
Lumbeats look at the writing credits .. like 5 ppl wrote this song..
And a beautiful expressionist.
LOVE 311..❤
I should hit "like" but I don't want to change it from 311. :)
You're good now lol
A very Bob Rock-produced type of song. Love it! Sounds like it could have been on Uplifter that was released just TEN years before this album. This should be the next single and I am not kidding.
¡ROCK DEM VOX HEX Y VATO!
Beautiful.
Great words fam.
Dark horse candidate for best song on the album! The beat and the lyrics are all so so good.
I still can't decide which one I like best cuz they are ALL oh so good!
Scott Williams absolutely true, but if I had to pick, Dodging Raindrops would be it for me
New favorite song
Man, I’m not sure if Nick or SA wrote that whoever it was I’m willing to bet they are an introverted, intuitive, feeler, perceiver. (INFP). Awesome song and lyrics.
My new jam 🤘
Golden! 🤘😊🤘
It's not the worst thing I've ever heard...but this is not 311...
It's not, but it is, that's why I love it. Feels fresh to me and still a good song. I hope they play it live soon
my favorite song on this album!
Radio worthy for sure
Favorite song on the album 😍
I CAN SO RELATE TO THIS SONG NOW PH has been in quarantine for so long
The message is great
Amazing performance of this song at 311 Day
Goosebump city 🔥
This is amazing
That profile picture is a 10
My appreciation💕
Great tunes! ☀️and🌛 💕
This is at least the 50th time i have listened to this song it's amazing favorite song
Love it!
Love this song
I adore this video - its so usefull and helpfull.
If peace had a sound, this would be it.
This was obviously their foremost radio push track on the album. I love it. What’s wrong with a little pop attempt? I hope it gets some airtime.
I love this song!
Very Cool.
This should have been a single.
My boys 🤙🏼
As a 13 year old i expect to like pop, but no 311 is my favorite band by far. This song is no different, i expected trash but its beautiful.
What the hell man awsome
Shut up dad
Shut up dad
Feldman music I like??? Take me to the hospital.
DODGING RAINDROPS LYRICS
Why do I stay inside?
I should be livin' life
Instead of watchin' through the window
No use in playin' safe
Not gonna hesitate
I know the storm is only mental
I'm letting go, givin' up the control
Yeah, I'm ready to go wherever the wind blows
I wanna see where the road's gonna lead
Time is tickin' and the world is not waitin' on me
I've been dodgin' raindrops for far too long
These clouds over my head, they won't move on
I've been dodgin raindrops, tryin' not to get wet
I've been dodgin' raindrops for far too long
Dodgin' raindrops
But they're all in my head, all in my head
But they're all in my head, all in my head
Sooner or later, it comes
As quick as it comes, it'll go
Whatever is blockin' the sun
Only for a moment
Running away from my past
It's pushin' me out of my zone
Pullin' me under the gun, into the unknown
I'm letting go, givin' up the control
Yeah, I'm ready to go wherever the wind blows
I wanna see where the road's gonna lead
Time is tickin' and the world is not waitin' on me
I've been dodgin' raindrops for far too long
These clouds over my head, they won't move on
I've been dodgin raindrops, tryin' not to get wet
I've been dodgin' raindrops for far too long
Dodgin' raindrops
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
(I've been dodgin' raindrops)
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
(I've been dodgin' raindrops)
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
Ready to go outside

Dodgin' raindrops
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head

But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
(I've been dodgin' raindrops)
But they're all in my head, but they're all in my head
different but I like it!!!
you seeing 311 in the qaud later bro?
So good.💧…311☑️
Nice!
Pinche canción más hermosa ❤311
Thank you for everything,My entire life. Notably when I took shrooms my first time and I gave up violence. Never gone back.
For making me face myself
Love the world and realize it wasnt out to get me. I was out to get it all. But nothing is there for me if my arms are closed. For walking me through the death of my Father. My Grandmother and two dogs. The things my parents couldn't because I was too out of control. I'm 33 and no adult history because I turned a beautiful disaster into amber,the down is gone,And I'll be here for awhile.
Dauumm
This song is pretty great....for pop music. im hopin this super mainstream side of 311 is just a phase.
I sat down in the middle of my kitchen floor cried like a little bitch the first time I heard this track. I guess that was the shove I needed, because I've actually been out living life since that day instead of simply existing. It's been the most amazingly beautiful summer, and I don't think I've ever been more inspired by a song.
big baby man ha ha nerd
jk me too
u beast
Found this song while working at five-guys 😁
Apparently 311 worships the "dark sun" now
Amazingly good .. YoU are definitely up with the times of 2019- 2020 .. Time to work with Scott again Stick Figure .. Create something Great cuz YoU can. 'Idaho'
I'm still dodging raindrops
You called me 'IDAHO' at the meet and greet in Seattle after Portland. Almost ran over me in the van to the show. That was awesome
while I do actually like this song, i'm kind of annoyed. In the song credits are john feldmanm, khalid, marshmellow, matt malpass, nicholas furlong....is this 311 or not?? how about another album where all the songs are written by nick, sa, tim, chad, and pnut
njdkidd1231 Listen to their song “Silence”
Yup, Silence all the way in the chorus music.
❤💛💚
Cool animations who makes em?
Albert Kolb prolly 311 themselves
Hopefully this the last album with Feldman!
springer 90 why they need “help” I’ll never understand
springer 90 Scotch knows their sound better than anyone .. Since Stereolithic said he needs to produce every album going forward
springer 90 Feldmann actually had some good songs on this album
Born to Live was cool tho
stereolithic wasnt produced good and its not that great honestly. mosaic and voyager and even universal pulse are better listens. i dont hate the album by any means but stereolithic is NOT representative of a perfect modern 311 sound by any means. voyager is best album since evolver hands down. they were incredible last night!
First day muffukkaz
Ok ILLENIUM stop ghost producing
How tf was this not the single they pushed?
Save the best for last? I really liked good feeling, but this is much more of a stronger song in my opinion
They made this song with Marshmellow and Khalid? In the song credit on spotify their names pop up🤔
Dude. I listened to this in my car and was like. This sounds like a marshmello type track. And then I read this message. And checked. Wow. Lol
No they had to credit Marshmello as damage control after the Noisestorm fiasco happened.
I'm not sure if anyone notice this but why this song's drop is similiar to Marshmello - Silence?
Is this another plagiarism I smelled?
Marshmallow and Khalid helped write Dodging Raindrops.. Go look at the writing notes.
