    Well, Here I am 53 years old sitting in my office in tears. In March of 2020 I lost my best friend, My soulmate, The love of my life to a heart attack at only 55. We had seen you solo and with the band probably 15 times. He used to call me and sing this on my answering machine. You were " our" band. Your messages hit us both deep and hard. The last thing he said to me was, I will be calling you .. then he went on to sing the song. I can't thank you enough for all of the wonderful memories listening to you. We didn't have any kids, so I thought I would be alone for the rest of my life. Until just now. I am part of the Blue crew. Not alone. Thank you. ~Peace and Love~

    This song has SO many different levels of love. The love for my daughter, the love for my daughter's father who has passed away, the spiritual side - the love I experience from God - with my brokenness, he took away the old and shows me new love and grace everyday, "I can't believe you actually picked me" ...no matter where you are on life's path...you can never take away the Love of God. Thank you to Blue October!

Stay strong and true, my friend, for your Father knows who you are and who you will be. You are a beautiful woman and stand out as a treasure because of your brokenness and decisions to not grow bitter, but instead, grow into a testimony of Jesus's grace and love!! It is beyond worth it for the prize of the race... I'm praying for you

    My dad introduced me to blue October when I was 21/2 years old (note I am 13 now) his music has been part of my life for a long time, my parents divorced when I was 3 1/2 and my dad stayed in California while me and my mom moved to michigan, every time I listen to blue October I think of my dad. The line in blue skies "I want my daughter to jump into my lap, I want to tell her daddy's fine and always plans to be" that is my favorite line in the entire song, I think of my dad, I still see him every summer, but that's less time with him. Sorry I needed to get that off my chest.

It also happens to be my boyfriend and I's song as he travels a lot hence "calling you"...this can be interpreted in so many ways! That's what makes BO so versatile!

I can relate to the lyrics, it's not that I'm tired of my parents I love them dearly, and nor is it me trying to be older and mature, it's just that I feel like I don't see them often due to work and it's sorta hard to hang...love your parents for what they do, keep them and always love them, they do this to keep you from having to go the wrong way.

    I live in the UK, Blue October didn't really get the recognition they deserve here until the release of their single "Hate Me". Upon hearing that song I immediately fell in love with their sound and bought the album "Foiled" just on the strength of that one single. Since then I have bought every album they have released since and most of their back catalogue too. The only albums I don't currently own are "Answers" and "History for Sale" so until now I hadn't heard this song... TBC...

    This song is how I feel about my kids. I travel for work and am away 4 to 5 days a week. I HAVE to hear their voices every day so I can be reminded why I do what I do. Heari g my son tell me about his day. Or my daughter telling my she loves me more than the whole Universe. That is my addiction and what I live for.

    This song will forever be my favorite, I have two beautiful girls and every single time I hear this song it makes me wonder why my father never tried looking for us, Never tried calling even though he knew how to contact us. Some of his family have send me friend request on fb but from him I haven’t heard or seen anything. Haven’t seen him in 22 years. And I’m not complaining or sad about it I just cant imagine leaving my kids with no explanation to why things didn’t go right with the mother

    In the realm of emotions, where souls collide,
    There lies a band with hearts open wide.
    Blue October, their name echoes in the air,
    A vessel for words we all long to share.
    Through verses profound, they paint a vivid scene,
    A dance of words that touch the places unseen.
    With introspection as their guiding light,
    They lead us through darkness, into the night.
    "Hate Me," a cry that pierces the heart,
    Unveiling vulnerabilities, tearing us apart.
    "Into the Ocean," a journey within,
    Where waters cleanse, washing away our sin.
    "Calling You," a plea to a love so true,
    The ache of distance, longing to break through.
    And "Home," where solace is sought,
    A refuge within, where battles are fought.
    With each song, a story, raw and alive,
    They uplift our spirits, helping us survive.
    Their melodies hold power, their lyrics so,
    Transcending time and making wounds heal.
    Oh, Blue October, your music we embrace,
    A balm for the soul, in this chaotic space.
    Thank you for your artistry, your genuine voice,
    For reminding us all, we have a choice.
    So, let us raise our voices high in praise,
    To Blue October's brilliance, in countless ways.
    May their words continue to inspire and igniteGuiding through the darkness, towards the light.... It's the least I can do, Is to write something back. Thank you for every time you helped me through with the magic of your songs. 🍀✌️

    My best friend sent me this song after my ex who I thought was the one, completely shattered my heart. I cried like hell and replayed it for weeks. I then realized why my homies family was in love with this band. It's the open soul. I grew up around music that turned your emotions off and this and Pink Floyd just awoke some feeling inside that I only got when I was really young from the bond I had with my mom. Was taught to ignore my feelings and to push them down and deal with them by myself. You don't have to do that. This world is so beautiful. It's so ugly at the same time. You have a choice to wake up everyday and focus on either or so do yourself a favor and choose to see the beauty man. People wanna see you smile 😘

    When I was in rehab two years ago they gave us mp3 players and had to list atleast 10 bands or artists. I didnt pick these guys but I picked some bands of this era and genre and they put this song on it outta 600 songs. I remember listening to these guys back in highschool but forgot about them after awhile. But anyways I fell in love with this song cause it kinda explained my current situation and love for my significant other that was at home hoping and praying I get better. I played it to her at a visit and she absolutely loved it and played it alot then after that. Unfortunately after a week of being outpatient She lost control of her car while going to a counseling session of mine later in the day and passed away. This is the first day I listened to this song since. My life has forever changed since then.

I listen to it on the nights when I can't sleep and I am all alone, sitting in front of the computer playing their videos, and they are just for me, every one of them, I never get tired of their music, and it speaks very personally to me, missing my daughters, wishing I could call them, wishing they loved me, wishing I knew where they were. Being their mom was heaven. Parental alienation is hell.

    "Calling You"
    There's something that I can't quite explain
    I'm so in love with you
    You'll never take that away
    And if I've said it a hundred times before
    Expect a thousand more
    You'll never take that away
    Well expect me to be
    Calling you to see
    If you're OK when I'm not around
    Asking "if you love me"
    I love the way you make it sound
    Calling you to see
    Do I try too hard to make you smile?
    To make us smile
    [Chorus:]
    I will keep calling you to see
    If you're sleeping, are you dreaming
    If you're dreaming, are you dreaming of me
    I can't believe you actually picked me
    I thought that the world had lost it's sway
    It's so hard sometimes
    Then I fell in love with you
    Then came you
    And you took that away
    It's not so difficult
    The world is not so difficult
    You take away the old
    Show me the new
    And I feel like I can fly when I stand next to you
    So while I'm on this phone
    A hundred miles from home
    I'll take the words you gave me and send them back to you
    I only want to see
    If you're OK when I'm not around
    Asking "if you love me"
    I love the way you make it sound
    Calling you to see
    Do I try too hard to make you smile?
    To make us smile
    [Chorus x3]
