To me John is one of the greatest singers of the 90's this song is just epic i never heard him sing this good befor it seem's the older they get the better they get like a fine wine that ages over time its amazing to see how far they have come as musicians and people i can't stop listening to this song its that good lol and it never gets old thank you guys for the years of great music hope to hear many more :)
A lot of goo goo dolls songs could be their own genre... There's not many artists or bands out there that make even close to amazing extraordinary meaningful inspirational heartfelt unreal songs like these. You can't even describe them that they are so powerful
@@Pre-op8ut real bummer at a party I bet, Bub. Actually, don't enjoy this song because...well, you said so. Music is what you make it even if it's about grandma's homeless boyfriend, as you report 1st hand facts like CNN. (I get it, but damn...just let things go and let us enjoy something)
John deserved to get inducted in the songwriter hall of fame. Im so proud to say that Goo is my favorite band. Theyve been together 27 years & i think thats amazing. Still making great music. They will never know how much their music helped & inspired me & other people like me.
I love this whole cd I lost both my parents within 6 years. Survived making all funeral arrangements, for my Mom she had to pick the day to stop all meds, God carried her home March 16, 2012, I don't know what your meaning of this song but, to me it means she is with me watching. I have now taken her place in the family, as the go to person, and the lyrics say I'm still on the ground wishing I could be like you.. Thank you for all the beautiful music you have written! I't gets me through.♥
Glenda Willett life can really call us to be “bulletproof” I completely relate losing both my parents 6 months apart of each other just like John when I was a teenager.
Glenda Willett and in April 2016 I lost my beloved son in a horrific auto accident just when So Alive hit the airwaves. To say I was devastated is a misstatement of the highest degree!!! 3 1/2 years later & I’m still heartbroken 💔💔💔
I remember playing their song "bulletproof" over and over again when I was a confused teenager back in HS.. and now I'm finally on my own 1000 miles away from all that I've ever known and its like a new chapter in my crazy messed up life... and yeah...
Ever since I first heard "I'm Still Here" (my first GGD song) you have been my favorite band. I have NEVER found a band that comes even close. All the emotion you put into your music is amazing and yes, sometimes it makes me cry because you really DO touch people's lives with your music. You will always be in a very special place in my heart.
I am so obsessed with the GGD. Their songs are beautifully and perfectly written. You can tell they put alot of emotion into their songs and thats amazing.
Was a big fan back in the late 90's....here we are are almost 15 years later...listening to some of the same music- I guess that means they're timeless, in the league of U2,Beatles,etc. etc.....Looking forward to the free concert in Golden Gate park this weekend...never been to a live concert yet....helping me feel young still...Thanks. Love the music....
When I first heard this song, "Bullet Proof Angel". the music, itself, put me to tears!! My Mother had Passed Away, on March 18, 2013. Still not over my heartache (never will!) a few months gone by, and then I received The Magnetic C.D., I had pre-ordered, before her Death, forgot All about it?? And played All the Songs!!! This Song, hit me the most!!! I'd play it over and over, and cry everytime! Now I hear the song, still thinking of my, Mom! But less Saden helps lift me up!!! It's Heavenly, Musically Expressed, Ballet, reminds me a little of "Iris", coud be in a Up Coming Film ( Movie). Need to give it a chance, and have an open feel through the Music and Lyrics. It caught my attention, listening to it!!! And All the Other,Fine, Magnetic C.D. Songs, The Goo Goo Dolls Perform, this song, is My Favorite, now!!!!!
Listening to BulletproofAngel makes my contacts feel good. Another great song from the Goo Goo Dolls! They're my favorite band! Going to buy "Magnetic" and play it all the time.
"BulletproofAngel" Lyrics by The Goo Goo Dolls I see her every morning In the middle of the street. The "suits" don't even notice, Staring at their feet. She hears a secret choir That sings for me and you. You know I don't believe her But I say I hear them too. Angel, You're bulletproof, You're so high, You see the truth. And I'm still on the ground pretending I... That I could be like you. She asked if I'm a lover. I said I try to be. She said love until your heart breaks, Cause there are no guarantees. Angel, You're bulletproof, You're so high, You see the truth. And I'm still on the ground pretending I... That I could be like you Ooh Call out to heaven Just to let them know You're here. Stay with me a moment. Say I'm not alone And tell me that I'll see you again. Angel, You're bulletproof, You're so high, You see the truth. And I'm still on the ground pretending I... And how could I have ever passed you by? Cause I'm still on the ground pretending I... That I could be like you. That I could be like you.
I love this band. I`m constently bullied at school. I`m depressed and have very little self esteem. This song inspires me to be BULLETPROOF! and try not to let what others say effect me no longer.
Hey dont worry , it will all be well ! dont give up because at the end of the day you are the one who is the strongest of them all for keeping up with all that :D
With stuff like this, everybody always says you're great without even knowing you, but I do know one fantastic thing about you, that you replied and stood up to Justin, which says that you have courage in you. So you are great, for real, and I know there are tons of other great things about you I don't know about, but this is one that I do know.
dear goo goo dolls: if you ever get a chance to read this you should know what a big impact you've had in my life your songs always make me feel understood ever since i was a little girl you are and always will be my favorite band. :)
Well Said 'TheSweetestFriend'...I guess we can just be grateful we are enlightened enough to appreciate and listen in awh of their amazing lyrics and music. I personally never cared to much about 'fitting in' to the masses anyway, so everyone else can listen to '22', doesn't change what I love.
My Mom was a BULLET PROOF ANGEL and I lost her last year. I took care of her all the way to burying her.This is so me trying to be like her. Beautiful song as always. THANK YOU GOO GOO DOLLS for saving me for 25 year's.
I like that this song isn't a pretty love song. It has an ominous and eery mood , while laced in a melodic piano riff , I picture a dense fog outside a bedroom window with an angel revealing life's secrets in the middle of the night.
I Have more than 15 years listening the goo goo dolls, every new album is a guarantee. I have listen many bands through this years and all of them change their styles and many are not with us anymore. But the Goo Goo Dolls keep giving us good music, and great albums. Thank you, I hope one day I will have the chance to listen you live.
I was thinking the same thing DFG. This is a very deep song.... you can just feel it... and when I listened over and over again it made me think of him talking to his Mom about his new love.
have to be bullet proof in this crazy world songs like this gives me strength and fight for what I am!! thanks for your beautiful music from your adoring fans Lol Ali estero Florida
To Glenda (below): lead singer Johnny's dad passed away when he was 15 years old, & then his mother died 6 months later, both were musicians. (According to Wikipedia). So tragic. Sorry for your loss. No wonder everything he writes is so touching, profound & emotional-- with impressive musicality. A rare combination--I agree with others who say they are one if the most under-rated bands...
I have had the album for 3 days now and I am already addicted ! Yet again an amazing album from guys and I cannot wait to see them on 23rd October in Birmingham, UK. Bulletproof Angel is up there with the best songs ever recorded by anyone. Can't stop listening to it and feel compelled to blast it out through the surround sound whenever I am at home !!! (doing so right now)
When I hear this song I want to hug John and tell him that everything will be ok... He simply has a big gift from God make people to have some big feelings when he sings... This is why I love The Goo goo dolls, especialy John.
love this song touches my heart you are such a gifted writer and musician!!! love you guys you are the real deal!! beautiful song thank you for all your special music!!! LoL Ali estero Florida
I can hear this now in some amazing movie that has yet to even be written...it is such an amazing song!! Thank you for writing and sharing your gifts with all of us, you make any day a better day when I get to listen to songs like this! '-)
Absolutely great tune, GGD really are back to their best on this record - I don't think it's quite the out-and-out rock album everyone's been waiting for but the songwriting is out of this world! I'm a Singer/Songwriter & have always been inspired by this band, might even do a cover of this!!
I second you man! It would be hard to believe but Im only 14 and I am in love with this band! So in love. They reach out to a younger audience too! Just not the masses. I wish they could. This is what music is. Not what the charts tell us. I hope the album goes up to number 1. I really do.
Thank you! I don't know why I didn't like Rebel Yell as much as I should've, but this is totally amazing and makes me feel uplifted. Thank you for your voice, John Rzeznik.
I can't wait until the album comes out. I barely ever buy stuff on iTunes (especially full albums) but I love these guys and it is totally worth it this time.
If they never made another song; I would be okay with that. John and the Goo Goo Dolls have an ability and have had an ability to create songs that both sound good and have meaning for 35 years.
I feel like they wrote this song for my mom. She doesnt realize it, but Heaven lost one of it's best angels when they sent her here. I just hope they dont take her back anytime soon.
Yesterday after listening to it for the 100th time I had the same thought as another on here. With him being in such a good place and falling in love... I think it could be about his mother who passed away when he was 15 and her message to him is love to the fullest because nothing is guaranteed
Something about this song makes me cry every time. Love you Johnny.
To me John is one of the greatest singers of the 90's this song is just epic i never heard him sing this good befor it seem's the older they get the better they get like a fine wine that ages over time its amazing to see how far they have come as musicians and people i can't stop listening to this song its that good lol and it never gets old thank you guys for the years of great music hope to hear many more :)
Another breathtaking offering from the Goo Goo Dolls
A lot of goo goo dolls songs could be their own genre... There's not many artists or bands out there that make even close to amazing extraordinary meaningful inspirational heartfelt unreal songs like these. You can't even describe them that they are so powerful
He didnt. This song had a songwriter from dr lukes presciption songs. I know. I work there. She wrote it for her grandma and boyfriend.
@@Pre-op8ut real bummer at a party I bet, Bub. Actually, don't enjoy this song because...well, you said so. Music is what you make it even if it's about grandma's homeless boyfriend, as you report 1st hand facts like CNN. (I get it, but damn...just let things go and let us enjoy something)

his voice just wow i fell in love over again
such a beautiful and pure song....these kinds of songs are the reason I am a great fan of Goo Goo Dolls.......the chorus is so beautiful
I love this whole cd I lost both my parents within 6 years.

goo goo dolls still one of the best bands that still make good music
I can't stop playing this song! It's beautiful!

For my aunt who died of cancer in western ny during covid. Oddly enough… She was a cancer nurse during her career. Miss you Barbara.
Dang same here too. Coincidently also named barbara.

there is actual angelic quality to this song. love it.
this is my favorite song of all time. this very song made me a Goo Goo Dolls fan for life! keep rockin! cant believe i just said that lol.
"BulletproofAngel" Lyrics by The Goo Goo Dolls
I see her every morning
In the middle of the street.
The "suits" don't even notice,
Staring at their feet.
She hears a secret choir
That sings for me and you.
You know I don't believe her
But I say I hear them too.
Angel,
You're bulletproof,
You're so high,
You see the truth.
And I'm still on the ground pretending I...
That I could be like you.
She asked if I'm a lover.
I said I try to be.
She said love until your heart breaks,
Cause there are no guarantees.
Angel,
You're bulletproof,
You're so high,
You see the truth.
And I'm still on the ground pretending I...
That I could be like you
Ooh
Call out to heaven
Just to let them know
You're here.
Stay with me a moment.
Say I'm not alone
And tell me that I'll see you again.
Angel,
You're bulletproof,
You're so high,
You see the truth.
And I'm still on the ground pretending I...
And how could I have ever passed you by?
Cause I'm still on the ground pretending I...
That I could be like you.
That I could be like you.
I love this song...it made me cry, but I"m in a crying mood lately. Thank you all for such moving music that makes us think, hope, love, pray.
Love these songs, especially "Come to Me."
Can you feel
Favorite song off of magnetic! Just so beautiful
Most Underrated Band. Just saw them in concert for the first time!
One of the last surviving bands of real music....pure art
I love this band. I`m constently bullied at school. I`m depressed and have very little self esteem. This song inspires me to be BULLETPROOF! and try not to let what others say effect me no longer.
Live with it
It`s not as easy as you think.
Hey dont worry , it will all be well ! dont give up because at the end of the day you are the one who is the strongest of them all for keeping up with all that :D
most of those people will die early because they are full of hate..
With stuff like this, everybody always says you're great without even knowing you, but I do know one fantastic thing about you, that you replied and stood up to Justin, which says that you have courage in you. So you are great, for real, and I know there are tons of other great things about you I don't know about, but this is one that I do know.
dear goo goo dolls:
if you ever get a chance to read this you should know what a big impact you've had in my life your songs always make me feel understood ever since i was a little girl you are and always will be my favorite band. :)
Throwback to 2013 when my mom played this album on repeat. I never realized how beautiful this song was until today
Well Said 'TheSweetestFriend'...I guess we can just be grateful we are enlightened enough to appreciate and listen in awh of their amazing lyrics and music. I personally never cared to much about 'fitting in' to the masses anyway, so everyone else can listen to '22', doesn't change what I love.
dude that's totally true. I love mainstream music too, but I feel like this kinda Goo's song is the true song that hits your soul
My Mom was a BULLET PROOF ANGEL and I lost her last year. I took care of her all the way to burying her.This is so me trying to be like her. Beautiful song as always. THANK YOU GOO GOO DOLLS for saving me for 25 year's.
Decade later thanks for your post
Oh Yeah😊😊😊😊
I like that this song isn't a pretty love song. It has an ominous and eery mood , while laced in a melodic piano riff , I picture a dense fog outside a bedroom window with an angel revealing life's secrets in the middle of the night.

Fantastic Song !!!
So true thank you for such a beautiful song. God Bless
this is one of the best songs of Goo
This record is already epic and it hasn't even been fully released yet. This song is amazing, can't wait to add it to my collection.
I totally agree...goo goo dolls songs are packed with soo much more emotion than matchbox 20s
Absolutely great tune, GGD really are back to their best on this record - I don't think it's quite the out-and-out rock album everyone's been waiting for but the songwriting is out of this world! I'm a Singer/Songwriter & have always been inspired by this band, might even do a cover of this!!
this is one of my favorite bands and great cd
I seen them live at a concert when they were promoting "Magnetic" with matchbox twenty. Such a great album ggd made. Same as mb20
Great Music is Great for the heart & soul. Music is everywhere just listen. Great Band
why does this song sound like it would fit well in the credits for a cinematic epic movie? I love it!
+wild gamer #vampire diaries
a lot of em do huh? lol
Inspirational music. Thought provoking.
Beautiful Song -- I think angels are among us every moment.
Best Goo Goo Dolls album since "Gutterflower"... FACT!
I second you man! It would be hard to believe but Im only 14 and I am in love with this band! So in love. They reach out to a younger audience too! Just not the masses. I wish they could. This is what music is. Not what the charts tell us. I hope the album goes up to number 1. I really do.
Possibly my favorite song off the new album.. yup, definitely legit!
This song always gets to me, love this song.
I love this song!
Love, Love, Love! Cannot wait to hear LIVE!!
I wasn't that excited about their return till I heard the opening of this song OH DEAR LORD and that artwork I'm just..this is goodness
Thank you! I don't know why I didn't like Rebel Yell as much as I should've, but this is totally amazing and makes me feel uplifted. Thank you for your voice, John Rzeznik.
Three people have absolutely no taste in music! Good job guys! Love it! I'm still here, and have been from day one! Much love and continued blessings!
That's awesome Angels =) This band has stood the test of time and this song has hit me as much as Slide did back in 1998. Just amazing they are!
This is simply amazing
Amazing, totally relate to this song, it's unreal.
My Fav band of all time
Goo Goo Dolls for life!
Love this song. Just saw them live in Toronto. Awesomeness :)
all GGD songs go right in to my deeds. Gosebumps every single time! thanks for this songs guys!
I can't wait until the album comes out. I barely ever buy stuff on iTunes (especially full albums) but I love these guys and it is totally worth it this time.
This song is SO good.
Just... Beautiful.
Are no guarantees true..
♥️♥️♥️ One of my faves..
I love this song - it reminds me of all the Superman songs I love so much ! * * * !
seriously.. I love this band so much.. Keep fighting, Johnny! :') their songs never fail to surprise me..
If they never made another song; I would be okay with that. John and the Goo Goo Dolls have an ability and have had an ability to create songs that both sound good and have meaning for 35 years.
He didnt. This song had a songwriter from dr lukes presciption songs. I know. I work there. She wrote it for her grandma and boyfriend.
Love you so much Johnny. This is my favourite song right now. Huge fan of Goo Goo Dolls.
i know, its one of my favorite tunings sounds so good, love johnny, musical god
this song is really really beautiful!
I feel like they wrote this song for my mom. She doesnt realize it, but Heaven lost one of it's best angels when they sent her here. I just hope they dont take her back anytime soon.
The Empowered Muse that is wonderful. Cheers to never taking the people we love for granted.
The new album is a slight step outside the normal for them. I hope they're proud of this release. I'm looking forward to seeing them play soon.
Wow.. this is just awesome. After hearing the clips on iTunes I wasn't expecting this.
The goo goo dolls and black lab are two of the best bands ever.
Linkin Park too :P
Yesterday after listening to it for the 100th time I had the same thought as another on here. With him being in such a good place and falling in love... I think it could be about his mother who passed away when he was 15 and her message to him is love to the fullest because nothing is guaranteed
I loved Gutter flower as well but its nice to have a much more light and happy album from them..it means they are happy themselves :)
Thanks for another classic in the making--The whole CD is great
Such a great song.
Beautiful song ... compassionate ... you're not alone, no one is :-)
