'The 8th of October (To August 17th)' Lyrics:
I let you down
Just like your father
I did not deserve you
Cause you are the truth
The last time I saw you
Was the 8th of October
And when I left Brooklyn
We both knew it was through
And the worst day of my life
won’t be when they put me in the grave
Cause that already happened
When I saw the tears,
The tears roll down your face
When you watched me walk away
I never said goodbye
Farewell, we tried
I asked for an angel
Well, I guess that God sent me two
The first one I forsook
But the second one is you
The best day of my life
Was when you saved it
On the 17th of august
God damn, somehow, I made it
And this time I have learned
Cause I was barely alive
But you gave me kindness
Now I’d carve out
I would carve out both of my eyes
Before I'd watch you walk away
You saved my whole life
Ain’t gonna fuck it up this time

He fell back in love with his guitar and I'm all about it.
facts tho.. genuinely have never been more obsessed with guitar in my entire life. had to walk away for a few years and now i’m beyond obsessed, to a level i never even was before. it’s odd.
@@TERRIBLETUBE Can I ask what guitar you were using on that outro ?..........Thanks.
@TERRIBLETUBE Guessing this one's about Madison? Just a guess. Huge fan! See you again out on the road! MCID 🖤
Keep up the good work Johnny.
My ex fell out of love with playing before we split up. I hope he picks it back up. I always admired watching him play when he thought I wasn't paying attention. Even if I could tell him I miss him, I wouldn't because it's not reciprocated. 🥺
HS is at their best when Johnny is exposing his soul thru music. Lydia, Mom, Wolf, My Name is Human, etc. This track falls in that vein. Love it.
Yes! My favorites .
You forgot Chi-town
i mean, upperdrugs, little one, 16...i mean i think he does it in just about every song, but i agree thats why we love it so much.
@@jamesadamgleason9471 Tf is chitown
@@destructo3457pretty sure he means Chicago, lol
The more slow, melancholic style of rock fits his voice SO perfectly
I'm not a country fan at all.... but I'm curious what a collab with Chris Stapleton or Luke Combs would be like with these guys
Holy. Fuck. I cannot fathom how people who have ever loved and lost could EVER not be obsessed with this song. This is going in my “forever” playlist
Sometimes you have to hit Rock Bottom before you can be On Top.
That's where all the best music can be found for sure
Sadness is the best of a person
FACTS!!!
Sadness is the best of a person musically.the best me is happy with a song I’ve written,me.which can be rare
This statement is nothing but facts.
Johnny's voice is incredible!!
“I’d carve out both my eyes before I watch you walk away”
I felt that deeply 🔥🔥🔥
Jonny I hope life is good for all of you and your crew❤️❤️❤️
Had to be a first take vocal, a lot of emotion, got me all up in my feels.
These guys have no idea how badly they needed to return, now stick with this sound and they will CRUSH it.
They crush everything.
how badly we needed to return to what. Pleasing you? I’m stoked you enjoy the song :) but we don’t NEED to do anything. we make the music we want, when we want, how we want. I don’t “stick” with formulaic pandering. I make what the feeling inside me calls for.. in this instance, it appears fans of THIS style of music will be happy.. but if my soul calls for me to make a whole ass electro-pop dance album next or a scream jazz song or whatever I’m feeling in that moment, I’m damn sure gonna make that and not think twice. It’s really tiring hearing about how stunted people want artists to stay. Should Bowie have just played in one style his whole career? Should a photographer continue to shoot the same subject or always use the same camera? Should Harrison Ford only have played Hans Solo but not Indiana Jones? Should Edward Hopper have only painted the same image? I hope sincerely that one day people can understand how maddening it is for artists to have to constantly be told to stay in their box. I am a human being, sir.. I’d like to continue exploring and being true to myself, no matter what that sounds like or looks like. Anyway, I do appreciate you as a fan.. sometimes i just need people to get off my back and let me breathe tho. I promise I’ll never tell anyone else how they should express themselves, i just want the same respect on a very basic and human level.
@TERRIBLETUBE I hope you read this, Johnny. I never expected you to reply here. I am a musician myself and gig several nights a week, every week, playing originals and covers. I was a total pussy and only recently started playing those originals because I had to get out of my own way and the fear of people thinking I need to be this or that because they already know me as one thing.
In hindsight, I understand how my comment read, and I am sorry for that. It was purely from a place of excitement because the first 2 albums really hit me in my soul. Fuck, I still cover Seratonia in my set to this day. Do your thing, man. I'm actually glad you responded as I probably needed to read that from the person themselves to appreciate it beyond my own personal feelings.
@@FoxtrotXeroi ain’t mad at ya.
@@TERRIBLETUBE mcid
THEY'RE SO BACK. THEY'RE SO BACK. THEY'RE SO BACK.
they haven't went anywhere
YES! YES! YES!
All I want is a woman in my life who can take a drive through the mountains whilst we blast this song and more HS…. Not asking much here..
Goddamnit. Everytime I'm picking up my guitar, thinking about ending it all, somehow Johnny comes through. Sometimes it helps hearing someone else say this shit out loud. It's wonderful to hear you playing like this again, brother.
Jesus Christ, it’s like he is writing the soundtrack to my life. 😢
Weird isn't it?
This is the only thing that made me feel anything today. 💜
You're not the only one that's for sure. 🖤
MCID !!
We're here for it!
MCID
Damn that soul and beauty got me
Already my second favourite song after my name is human.❤
@petercurrie8047 serotonia and blue-eyed devil are my faves soo far, but this one is up there for sure.
@@abrimfulofasha I forgot blue eyed devil brilliant 😊🤘🏻 I also know one.🤭
@@petercurrie8047 🤘
Dude can sing...and write a song. I'm not on a limb in saying he's the best current blues vocalist anywhere - at least, that's this fan's assessment.
Unspoken goodbyes are always the hardest cus we never get to say sorry for breaking youre heart.❤
Love this.
Without going into detail, unspoken goodbyes can leave some of the most gut wrenching feelings for both involved. So many unknows and just filled with, "I hope they're doing well." Songs like this are good for me because its reassurance that you can be given more than one angel. It's all about what you do with the angel you're given. Johnny's getting better and we can see it in the music.

🙏❤
I want this song at my funeral in a couple months. ❤
I've been a fan for years and HS never ceases to surprise me, always keeps me on my toes, never know what to expect... and let me tell ya - not all songs in the past landed for me personally, but that's okay. It's great that HS evolves and they're still one of my fave bands of all time ❤
That drop did not disappoint.
This ballad is a vocal and guitar masterpiece.
I love your grungy blues music. There is no one like you Johnny. ❤
There you are Johnny. I missed you.
Now thats a fucking POWER BALLAD
Thanks for taking me somewhere I've never been.
The first line made this woman stop and gasp a little.
Omg!!! The guitar 😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻 fuck yes.
Yesss!! That's what hooked me. 🔥
This ending solo is soo great!
Cried...geez-us. Can't wait to experience this live.
Wow this hits home
This album is SAVING MEEEE
Facts
My wife and I honeymooned in Nantucket, and every time I hear HS, I am taken back. This one is really pulling on those strings to get back before I can't anymore.
Exactly on Time
This song is frickin beautiful
He put the same piece of soul in this one just like he did vanity on the street Cafe in Boston. Love it Johnny.
same soul with wolf and send me an angel
This band is so Amazing!!! The feels their music gives this 61 year old man is unparalleled! MCID
I know you'll think of me when you hear this 🦋
This song is incredible, took some mushrooms to enjoy it on another level
Absolutely ethereal!! New album is 🔥
Music Cures Intense Depression...

That guitar solo near the end, is one of the best things I’ve ever heard! 🫶🏽
My favorite band of all time no questions ask ask MCID speaks life
I fucking love this song SO much
Haven't heard this type of sound since the early 2000s. God, I've missed it

What a song
OH MY GOD! THIS...THIS...IS...JUST...WOW! Thank you! Ya just keep getting better! This reminds me a little bit like Jeff Buckley. This makes my heart feel good ~
If I died for every time my world crumpled in my face 🥹
I only discovered Highly Suspect this morning, just 3 songs in so far.
I’ve felt everything Johnny sings about, and still feel it in my soul every day. So glad the algorithm did something good for a change ❤
He is In touch with something so deep and raw here. It’s like he sat down and had a conversation with Chris Cornell at some spectral campfire and now he’s channeling his spirit. This is a power house of a song and it tears me wide-open ❤
This song hits different for me my son was born on the 8th of October and I was in his life for 8 years then he was kept from me by his mother who had moved away after Hurricane Katrina when he was 4 and over the next 4 years she slowly took him away from me and now he is 23 and he doesn’t want to have anything to do with me I’ve tried and tried to reach out and even found him at his job a little more than a year ago but he doesn’t want to be in my life he says that hurts me more than anything I have been through some hard times and I always have hope that he will come around but I don’t want to make his life hard also maybe he is better off without me I feel like the world would also like the song plastic boxes he says I don’t want to die but have no reason to stay now this song is name the day he was born is speaking volumes to me
The boys are back!
This song really speaks to everything deep inside. The best kind of music. Has to be one of the top HS songs of all time.
MCID needed this. I needed this new album.
honey 🥺
This album is gonna be 🔥🔥
First video i seen was of yall live in suits i think but that bike ride is my favorite video and im enjoying where ever yall go!
One listen 😮 yup replay. Highly suspect baby!!!!!
Discovered this band recently, the song "vanity" holds a place in my heart. Stoked to see they're still making music
Another amazing song
Wow wow love your vocals. Track is awesome just fantastic ❤ this one reminds me a little like kings of leon
Yes exactly. ❤ the start I thought the same, maybe even snow patrol. 😊🤘🏻
Highly Highly highly!! Announce those t3xas dates dawg
This track has definitely made me cry
i love you guys so much. thanks for this 🥲
Not even 30 seconds in and I can already tell I'm going to love it.
Wow , well worth the wait
My❤
Thank god you’re back; I missed you 🤟🤙
HOLY FUUUUCK !!!!! ❤❤❤❤
i’ll be at the Salt Lake City show on this very date. this band is my spirit animal. i had a relationship run the near-reverse of this…10/08 to 08/25, just shy of 2 years. the mood of this song matches me leaving, and how i felt. i gave up my world for a while.
I love you Liz, and I miss you
Omg 😲 in love with this song. HIGHLY SUSPECT never disappoints
The instant chills when the song started…
The instant tears that rolled down my face when the lyrics started…
I love you guys so much! Thanks for letting me feel through your music 🖤🖤🫶🏽🫶🏽
Incredible (As usual)
They are absolutely killing it!!!!
The more I hear the more I like it
It had 420 likes I almost didn’t wanna click on it 😊
I see the orbs in the clouds. I see their dark points like you see. They are in a lot of your artwork. I see.
You guys im sure earned all you have but yall was mesnt to be stars.
Nothing but shivers on this one. So much soul. Hope you all enjoyed listening, love from Canada.
🌺 I’m not crying, you are. . . 🥹
Damn right I am and not even ashamed
that song really got me and it's so incredible rare for a song to do this to me. thank you for this! this whole album in fact does somerhing magical!
Highly Suspect really promotes creativity thru captivity of its owning of the audience.
This tune is fkin beautiful
This new album is the greatest, can't wait to see you guy's play another show.
Am I the only one that hears Chris Cornell when johnny opens up??
this fucking band can do no wrong.
I lost my love......
This song had me bawling and brought up so many emotions for me. Definitely felt raw and full of soul.
This dude writes such melodic riffs abd lyrics, he's amazing. So glad they came w new music
Let’s go!!
