I lost my mother unexpectedly in 2013. I was only 17 at the time. I still feel lost without her, even at 25. Not a day goes by where I don't miss her. The Offspring was one of her favorite bands and FFDP is one of mine. To hear this cover tugs at my heart. 'Til we meet again, Mom.
Lost my mom 2 weeks after my 21st birthday and had not seen her in a year.I'm 30 now and have the same feeling....I can say that feeling may not ever go away.I've lost a few friends that were murdered as well and not a day goes by that I don't think about them all.Best thing to do is remember the good times to keep going on and stay happy otherwise it will eat you up.At some point you have to let go to a cetain extent.
Definitely takes me back to my Marine Corps days. Rest in peace to my fellow service men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice and god bless to those who are still serving. OORAH!
This song reminds of my friend that had died in a car crash when we were just seven years old I miss him dearly. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of him. I just wish he could be here with me today so we could see each other once more. R.I.P to everyone anyone has ever lost in their lives may all their souls find the light.
@@yeetyyeet990 Im so very sorry about your friend. Just remember he is always with you... Play this song and let him know it's for him. They can hear us and know our emotions from the other side.
this brings me back to the brothers and sisters ive lost and continue to lose every day, i cant serve anymore but i live and breathe for the men and women that sacrifice themselves. so their death isnt in vain
Reminds me of when I lost my brother in a car accident about 17 years ago. I was only six and we had an unbreakable bond until that one day he was taken from this earth. Even though he's gone now, I still feel him near a lot and that's what keeps me gripped to life to this day.
As a 15 year old, I’m literally listening to this song playing Xbox as I got the call that my grandpa had passed away. I had literally just lost my stepdad a year ago and now my grandpa. As I walked into the hospital in tears, this song is going through my mind the whole time saying my final goodbyes until we meet again. I’m about to face life and reality and not be a kid anymore. I have a long hard road ahead of me and it’s just not easy to take in the death of a loved one. Lost but not forgotten. I can’t wait to see you again grandpa. Love you and god bless you. I hope I never forget this song.
I also had a wakeup call at an early age. The comfortable life i had was gone and replaced with nightmares and heartache. And when i say gone i mean almost literally. My dog/childhood best friend was murdered, dad was diagnosed with alzheimers(he's dying), childhood home lost and everything stolen. Had to move into a shitty tiny camper with my abusive ex. Went from being comfortable surrounded by family to dirt poor and depressed, accompanied by drug use and bruises. Became a cat hoarder. I'm 23 and I'm out the relationship but things are still rough. Just lost my daughter(my cat) and I'm not okay. Appreciate what you have. Even the small things that don't seem to have importance because it does. Enjoy the time you can with your family and be the best you can be for yourself. I miss waking up to the smell of coffee, cartoons playing, birds chirping early in the morning with the sun shining through the trees into my window with cold feet from October weather. You really don't know what you have until it's gone. Not truly. And word of advice, just because someone might have it a little worse than you doesn't mean you shouldn't try to keep your head above the water. Don't wait until you hit rock bottom to fix your life or to start focusing on your feelings. Treat it seriously as soon as you feel yourself start to sink. And remember, help is always nice but in the end it's yourself you should rely on the most. I'm sorry for your loss.
I've not lost anybody extremely close to me yet but, this song still brings tears to my eyes. To those of you who have lost someone close to you, remember that their love for you will never die and some day you will see them again.
This song reminds me of my mother that died when I was 8 years old. So many times I've said Heaven is so far away and wishing I could bring her back. I still miss her everyday. 3/22/11
Not to make the situation even worse but I did as well lose my mother in a house fire when I was 8 on 3/27/12, life just goes on and you have to accept it. It may hurt at first but you’ll come to terms that their deaths weren’t for nothing... her death made me realize the good in life and how to cherish people and hold on to the ones that are still here. Even at my weakest I’m still there for everyone because you never know the day you or they will be gone... don’t ever take it for granted.
My brother William I never got to meet he died in foster care his foster mom beat him to death .. is prob the one that was like this for me I feel better now I named my son after him and his memory lives on
I lost my dad to cancer last year, he was the most selfless and caring man I’ve ever known, he’d put his things aside to help others with their needs. He made friends with everyone that treated him like a good human being he was. He had many close calls with death before and that opened his eyes to love and treat everybody the way they treated him. His service in the Coast Guard was not forgotten as he saved lives in his years of service. I miss him every day and I wish I could have said goodbye before his end.
This is such a beautiful and touching song. Several months ago during my pregnancy, two doctors and a specialist gave me some devastating news that my baby girl was not going to survive after my delivery. I was told it was possible she was going to pass away at anytime while being in the womb, or shortly after I give birth to her. On my last appointment, I was told “ma’am ... have you thought about getting started on a burial for your child? Or maybe thought about cremation? Or .. any arrangements at all?” I held in my tears and emotions as much as I could till I got to my vehicle. As soon as I sat down in my car, I bursted into tears and I screamed why her. Why, my baby. It wasn’t fair for her to not live and experience life that is now being taken away from her and so soon. Shortly after getting myself together, when I was leaving from the parking lot, this song came on. It brought more tears to my eyes and the pain felt even worse. Although, she was still alive and moving. It felt as if she was taken away from me the moment the doctors had told me about setting up arrangements. I was 100% sure that I wanted to play this song when the time came. ........ on April 6th, 2020 at 1:53am... I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl who was diagnosed to be healthy and was going to live after all! ❤️ (‘: Every time I hear this song, it brings tears to my eyes. Knowing I might have lost her. God is good. ❤️🙏🏼
It’s moments like this that I read the comments. So happy for you. Congratulations to you and yours. May God watch over and protect that child all the days of its life.
I lost my grandfather to lung cancer when I was 6. Even though that was 13 years ago as of typing this comment, I still remember his face like it was just last week. Every time I hear this song, I am reminded of him. He was such a cool person to be around. You could hold a conversation with him for ages, he was very religious, he never swore, and he was even a parachute rigger for the navy during Vietnam. God, I miss him.
To my brother, whom passed away a week ago. I am so, so sorry I couldn't do more. I wish you had reached out to me before it was too late. I know things were not good, i know you struggled... I'm so sorry. Please find peace brother. JAN 1981 - JUNE 2019
I can relate and I’m so sorry for your loss My son passed away Jan 13,2010 he was born at 26weeks on Aug 9,2009 . He never came home, When I heard this song I cried. It touched me to the core. “I reach to the sky, and call out your name oh please let me trade I WOULD” and the tears rolled
I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my only child, Leo on 21st January 2024 to a Medulloblastoma brain tumour. He had the worst of its kind. He was only diagnosed on 15th Jan 2024. 6 days later he died. He was only 2 years old 😭 It's Mother's Day in UK today and to say I'm struggling is an understatement. This song has been on repeat for almost an hour.
Man, I don't know about anyone else, but as soon as it gets to the lyrics "I reach to the sky, and call out your name. Oh please, let me trade. I would." for the first time in the song, I can't help but tear up a bit. Anyone that's someone unexpectedly loss someone or a loved one will definitely have this song hit close to home.
the whole song is a full reflection of the misery after a huge lost. All parts hits another feeling. i know this song for years and the part how hit me the most is "Leaving flowers on your grave Show that I still care But black roses and Hail Mary's Can't bring back what's taken from me" There is something in life you will never have back it doesnt matter what you do, what u wish, what u think or what you believe... the person is gone and not just out of your life, you will never have the chance again to see the person.... and that is so fucking brutal, savage, rekt... the most brutal part by this lost.
A reflection? more like a regret. after the bridge in the original he screams "Don't sell your soul" why? I was 28 when The offspring broke and they were huge with "Come out and Play" only the writer know's why he screamed out those words. But this song is total rubbish.....
he says "I'll save your soul" (this part shows that u want protect the person also after the dead, so much love) i know it is hard to hear but search for the lyrics. It is nothing about regret it is all about misery. Do you mean the song is rubbish or the cover? This song is one of the top 5 songs by offspring and my personal nr1. But the cover is shit in my opinion.
No the remake is rubbish IMO and your right but is there a definite lyric sheet I've looked, Also it was during there decline a bit and I'm not sure how he could save someones soul? A real cover is "The Sound of Silence"
Your lyrics "Dont sell your soul" make for me no sense in the whole song. "I`ll save your soul" can you interpret in different ways one is "even he cant trade" he do everything to honor the person to dont forget the person...but they are always other option left, you can do it for your own.
My grandfather died yesterday. This man showed me how to be a better man, how to treat a woman with love and respect, showed me how to work on cars, gave me my first shot of tequila, and showed me how beautiful life can be. It still feels so surreal. This song definitely hits close to home. R.I.P Abuelito Daniel. I love u and miss you
I had metallica black album on when I found out the news about my grandfather he was my father figure as well and that album holds my heart forever for that. r.i.p to our grandpa's who where also our father's growing up.
Last November was the last concert I went to with my best friend before he passed away, it was of course 5fdp since we are die hard knuckleheads, this would have been the perfect song for his funeral. Way to go on this jam guys, yall do the best covers
Robby Keene I'm sorry about your best friend, but I agree with you on many things this would be a beautiful song for your best friend and my little sister and ffdp does do really good cover music :)
it enhances the voice give it more girth.. Motionless in White used it for this song. every studio vocal has some kind of effect.. Ivan is a good singer, but this effect is his signature.. he uses it live to.. this is motionless in white using the same effect.. ruclips.net/video/DwCC9RM0D2w/видео.html
My god. FFDP are the master of covering songs. Every time its just so amazing and well done. I love a band that can cover a song and make it their own.
"I can't bring back what's taken from me" lyric hits home. For those who've lost someone they truly care and almost can't breathe without understand......this song is phenomenal...love the original and ffdp did this song justice
This song goes out to my grandma who sadly passed away from cancer 3 years ago I miss you everyday. To my wife's mom who lost her courageous battle to covid last year we miss both of you everyday we may hurt, we will cry, our hearts will ache but we all see you in a better place
Honestly I like the song, the instrumentals are great, and Ivan had PERFECT timing, but i feel like he could have gone harder in a few parts. I prefer the offspring version due to that, but ffdp did an amazing job with a hard to beat classic
My ex gf was a beautiful and sweet girl, even after our fallout. She was taken in a tragic accident just before turning 17. Left her sunflowers on her birthday, to show that I still care. The world truly got colder as I got the news she was gone.
My Fiancé died in a car accident about six months before the original song came out., It will always be the song I think of when I think of her. I broke down in tears when I first heard it. Having said that this a fitting tribute to that song. Thank you.
I lost mine in the same year but in may. I totally know what you mean, it doesn't get easier, you just learn how to put it to one side and get on with it
To me, the best 5FDP songs are those slow ones. Heavy, deep and melodic. Came here for the song only and ended up seeing most comments of people that have died. God bless and comfort all those people that have lost the beloved ones!
The song and video reminds me of my brother in arms in the army that died saving the life of myself and another. David you will always be remembered for what you gave to and for me.
To my friends who took there lives. To my friend and grandmother who lost there battle with cancer and to my sister whom i never got to meet. I love you all and you are apart of me no matter what. Choosing to live on for you is a daily struggle but i will fight until i have no fight left. Please remember no matter what you go through there is always a reason to keep fighting. Edit: not even 24 hours after finding this song and remember all the loved ones i lost, my mom got a phone call. My grandmother on her side had a stroke in her sleep which landed her in the ER. Early the next morning she took her last breath. This song is getting me through hell. Thankyou for your music.
My little brother was killed trying to break up a fight... He was the kind of person that everyone loved to see and hang out with. This song means so much to me. I know The Offspring wrote the original but you guys did such a great job covering it! Makes me cry every time. Not only because it's absolutely beautiful but, so meaningful for me as well. I love you guys. You all are so great! Glad you're doing better Ivan. What i would do to meet you all!
This song reminds me of my ex. Bless his soul but he was hurt in his life, he tried attempting a couple times but when I sang this song to him he hasn't tried since so thank you Ivan you saved his life. But I still comforted him without the song though regardless you helped us a lot he had a sad soul
I listened to this song on repeat on my way to my step aunts funeral she was only 50 something years old and was going to retire at the end of October never got to see her since the thanksgiving before it’s been almost a year now I miss her every day. Fly high Kelly we still love you.
I lost my momma in June, 2 months before I got to see 5FDP back in August. When they played this song I immediately thought of her and burst into tears. It was such an insane experience. I felt as if she was right above me while I cried. It was so damn good!!!
They keep getting better and better! Damn, I love this band. I can't describe how beautiful this song is. Maybe even my favorite so far, it's just so emotional and deep.
this is a pretty good cover but 5FDP are not getting "better and better", their own material is getting duller and duller. At least IMO and I know many agree
Lyrics Maybe in another life I could find you there Pulled away before your time I can't deal it's so unfair And it feels And it feels like Heaven's so far away And it feels Yeah, it feels like The world has grown cold Now that you've gone away Leaving flowers on your grave Show that I still care Black roses and Hail Mary's I can't bring back what's taken from me I reach to the sky And call out your name Oh, please let me trade I would And it feels And it feels like Heaven's so far away And it stings Yeah, it stings now The world is so cold Now that you've gone away Gone away Gone away Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh, yeah oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh I reach to the sky And call out your name Oh, please let me trade I would And it feels, yeah it feels like Heaven's so far away And it feels, yeah it feels like Heaven's so far away And it stings, yeah, it stings now The world is so cold, now that you've gone away Gone away Gone away Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh, yeah oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh Yeah oh, yeah oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh And it feels, and it feels like The world is so cold, now that you've gone away
Rest In Peace my grandfather I never got to see and same for my great grandfather, I have heard from my father that you two were in WWII and Vietnam and you two have told me so much about it’s not about why you give up it’s about how you gave up. Thank you for all the inspiration from you two for helping me get through live and thank you grandfather for being the father of my father.
My sincerest condolances to all who have losed. I my mother passed when I was 11. My father in my early 20s. My little nephew (More like my younger brother) just a cuople years ago. My brother (Who was more like my father) just this past weekend. And so many more along the way. My aunt Mary, Uncle Danny, Uncle Frank and Aunt June...
I heard this on my way home and I had to pull over to cry. I miss my parents so much. Never take them for granted. We get one life and one set of parents. Love them with all you've got while they're here...!! ❤️🙏
Saw this live in concert and I balled my eyes out. I lost my big brother to a horrific car accident in August 2018 me and all my brothers friends went to Biloxi to see them as a tribute for my big brother. He loved FFDP. Best night of my life. We cried but we also rocked out for him. I love you Hayden 9/8/95 - 8/5/18 til I see you again.
Losing my dad to cancer was the most hardest thing I have dealt with in my life... he was 48 when he passed away and I'm 22... today marks exactly 1 month of his passing... not a day goes by where I don't think of my father.. this song expresses exactly how I feel..
I just decided to read the comments and i ended up reading this. I feel for you, I love my mother to cancer in 2016 when I was only 15. I hope your life is doing better since then.
It's hard losing a parent, I was 18 when my dad passed in 1990, I was 40 when my mom passed in 2012. I'm 48 now and it hurts a lot still and would give anything to have them still here.
I lost a good friend of mine that I served with in the Marines and everytime I hear this song I remember all the good times and the shitty times we went through together. He was a good man, RIP brother, til Valhalla
21 years to this day my brother past away and this was a major song in my life. Love Offspring. Thank you FFDP for this. RIP JASON FLY HIGH MY BROTHER Gone to soon.
I dedicated this song to my mother Irene Almeida who passed in June 30 2016 years pass but your memory will always be remembered mother I love you and I miss you godbless and I send my condolences to anyone who lost their loved ones
One of my best friends died of cancer a year ago on December 18th and I’m sitting here in my truck listening and singing in tears thinking of him. Everything I do will be for him. Gone too soon.
Lost my baby brother last year, life is never going to be the same, to this day I look to the sky and feel the warmth of the sun, I know it’s him watching over us
Yesterday, my friend that I've known for ten years took his own life. He was young, incredibly intelligent, and had such a unique personality. I noticed a change in how he acted, but never questioned it. Whenever I hear this song, I can't help but cry. Suicide is a horrible thing. It affects everyone who's ever known you/them. It invokes questions that can't be answered. Please, please help those who are depressed. Don't make my mistake. Know the signs. Help prevent horrible tragedies like this one.
Evan Gibeau Agreed. In psychology, we learned the signs when people will commit suicide, the most blatant of which is the abrupt change of one’s personality. We were given a list of hotlines to prevent suicides, to act on it. I know that people dismiss these things commonly, but they help. And don’t blame yourself, that is not the way.
My sister loved FFDP...she died unexpectedly in a motorcycle accident. She was the coolest, most badass woman I've ever known. She was the best big sister to me and she helped me make certain choices and she told me everything I need to know about college. Almost everything. This was my freshman year and she died 1 month 1 week and 1 day ago. Losing her we lost a whole lot. We lost a daughter, a big sister, a best friend, an adventurer, and a badass woman.
Thank you for posting about your sister. No one on this string knew your sister, but from what you describe - she sounds like a true badass. You're not alone in your loss. Yes your loss is unique to you. But so many on this string love this FFDP cover because it gives a badass tribute to those on the other side. Stay strong KJ.
Peace be with you! So sorry for your lose! If it makes you feel better think of it like this your badass sister had to go to Heaven n get things setup for you when you go home! She is making heaven a better place! Peace May your heart heal n you know no more pain!!
Klemen Polajzer Well and i personally think that 5FPD has given this song more of a punch. I don’t know how to descripe it but the instruments and Ivan voice really gives the song and lyrics so much power.
Lost my dad on the 4th of July this year, 2022, and he was such a big fan of you guys and your music. He was in the army. I promised him in 2018 that I'd take him to your concert if you came to Spokane, WA and you played December 13th here and I went without him. You guys were amazing and he would have loved everything about that show. This song hits differently now.
xhockeyx2730 Bad company, house of the rising sun, momma said knock you out, we will rock you, spirit of the radio, walk, thunderkiss 65, blackhole sun
This song is so good I'm legit crying in my car, remembering my good friend Ken who died 9 years ago, and my friend Leah and my grandfather, both who died back in 2021.
I just lost my little sister. She only had 3 months to deal with Pancreatic Cancer. She was a Force of Nature, one you didn't want to mess with. She fought til the end. And she looked up to me.....what am I going to do without her? She leaves behind a bewildered husband and 6 devastated children. She loved FFDP so this song is so special now.
8 months ago, I hope it's easier now she watches over you but I know deep down how you feel. I am the one of six, I feel a strong pain I cannot replace, this makes it strong to know she has an incredible sibling who cares. The force of nature is nothing without the roots around her. Sorry for your loss bless you all
As if my heart wasn't broken enough, I just lost my son at the age of 30. My only child. The only Solace I have is knowing they are together. My cheering squad in Heaven. I am so lost.
My significant other passed away 10-3-22.. my whole world is just shattered.. this song expresses so much of the pain I'm feeling at the moment... R.I.P JME.... I love you.
I hate when people get mad when people cover a song. Always have something to say like not near as good as original or I like there original stuff better. What you fail to realize is its not about sounding like the original. Its about feeling something from a song and expressing your personal emotion through the song. Not about trying to be a copycat. Of course that would be annoying just like tribute bands.
I just had a listen to the original, now quickly note that I already don't like the offspring, I only like two songs from them. But I truly must say that this version is 100 times way better
Ash R Dude, we don't really care. It's just a fucking song, plus the Offsping's version has 20 million views on the video. I think that they assumed people just knew of the original.
RIP sweetheart, no one can replace you, but thank you for coming to me in a dream to give me my heart back... great things are worth waiting for... no matter how long it takes, I'll wait for the one I'm supposed to be with.. as you said, "If we were meant to be together, it would've worked out"... I will miss you, but as I live on, and remember you, you'll never truly die. good bye.
I'm not the emotional type but I feel for you I truly do I am so sorry for your loss, Everything happens for a reason wither we agree with It or not stay strong.
Sorry for your loss. It will never go away, but the pain will numb and happiness will return if you let it. Good luck, just know strength doesn't come over night. But with time. You are not alone.
I have always loved Five Finger Death Punch and I have listened to this song a million times. After my baby sister committed suicide, it took on a whole new meaning. I actually understood every word instead of just thinking it was a rad song. Every word of this song now connects to me so deeply. I know this feeling more than I ever wanted to or ever though I should. But thank you Five Finger Death Punch for putting words to an unexplainable pain and sorrow. Thank you for giving a voice to people like me that have/had no idea how to express the raw emotions they were/are feeling. You gave words to an unimaginable pain and sorry when I had none to give. Thank you!!!
Struggling over the past month coming to terms with my Aunt's more or less expected passing. This song brings up those feelings of grief, but it also brings up memories of good times and great moments. I love 5fdp for the powerful music that let's me headbang one minute then take a trip to the deepest parts of my mind the next. R.I.P Auntie may you bring your trademark sarcasm and deadpan sass to all of the angels! (or demons let's be honest lol)
Jada Smith I went to one of their concerts a couple months ago whenever people weren’t for sure if Ivan was back. Let me tell you, it was the greatest feeling when everything lit up and they start going at it with Ivan in the middle. I’m soo glad he’s back.
When I hear this song I think about my cousin. A little more than two years ago he was taken from us by gun violence. I'm for gun rights. But the way he was taken was so unnecessary. I was unable to attend his funeral. And it tears me up inside. My cousin probably never heard of Five Finger Death Punch. But I sure as hell would have introduced him to them. When I listen to this song, it helps me push away the guilt. David Ballinger, I love you cousin and I miss you. #gonebutneverforgoten
For what it’s worth, i’m young enough to where i’d never heard the original before this cover. As time goes on, some songs get buried with the times, and I believe covers reinvigorate the originals with relevant context of the current-most generation. And that is important when a good song is made- sometimes it needs a modern take in order for modern times to take in its meaning correctly.
As a metal head, I appreciate FFDP’s version of this song. Lyrically, the story is the same as The Offspring’s version (obviously). But the way FFDP composed this makes it so much different...personally, I like The Offspring’s version better. But music isn’t an argument over who’s better. It’s all in perspective, and this is very easily respectable and VERY kickass. Good job FFDP for doing a great justice to a great song👍
David perez I love a lot of stuff they do. I won’t lie, im way more into their older stuff but regardless they kick ass. They’ve overcome a lot with Ivan’s problems and I love that. A lot of bands would disperse or simply just not be the same but they consistently put out good shit
For me, personally, I also like the Offspring version. This version gives me no feeling. Offspring made me feel the pain of the song. However, I can appreciate the effort of FFDP in doing it. To each their own. I won't argue about it. Either way, it's still a lot better than their cover of House of the Rising Sun. That, to me, was atrocious.
Matt Carpenter I wish he would of change his pitch more on the chorus. I like this version better than the original. I just don't care for the voice of the singer for the offspring
@@deannaferguson3021 It's so nice hearing back from you Fan,and i really appreciate your love and support always. where are you from and where are you born..??
Yeah, treu it is REALLY touching man... No i didn't lose someone recently but i geuss i lost my self long ago. Got better,more social,GF, friends. But still feel lost and lonely. Love ffdp
FFDP will never realize how much therapy they've given me through their music. It's been just a little over a year since I lost both of my grandparents at the hand of my own brother. The world is so cold now that they've gone away...
yeah cause it's a greatest hits album. I'm just happy they decided to put 2 new songs on it. I'm excited for the new album sometime spring next year though!
4 years ago, I had a friend that loved country, but always loved rock, she was my best friend, my best mate, my angel from heaven who always had my back, and I always had hers. We met in high school, beginning of senior year. We would draw, hang out at my grandfather's backyard, and lay down on the grass, and just talk. We both never wanted to part ways. 1 year later, I'm working on the weekend, and she called me, and just said " we're going to prom, and we're gonna slow dance to our favorite country song. 😁" and I replied with "😳 HELL YEAH! 🤘🏻😝🤘🏻" we slow danced to "Remember When" by Alan Jackson. Then when we got back to her place, we saw this song on the recommended page. We loved it. But then she said "if I pass away, I want you to play this at my funeral." It kinda made us a little sad, but we didn't think too much on it. A few days later I ask if we can go for a walk. We walk to the park, and I ask her if she will be by with me. (Not Merry, just be in a relationship with me) she grabs my hands, and says, "I would love to, but im scared of hurting you, I don't want there to a argument to where we don't want to be with each other anymore. I will have to think about it. I promise to give you a answer." We both continued back to her place, and we hung out. A week later I get a phone call.......it's her parents. They called me and told me that she died from a asthma attack, they called 911, but by the time they got there, there was no puls. I broke down, and I had to leave work, and meet with her parents to arrange a wake, and then a bariel. I didn't want to accept the fact that she was gone. I got back to the truck, and asked "why God? Why her?" My heart felt like it was ripped in half. A few days later at the wake, I played our prom song. "Remember When" by Alan Jackson. When I said my goodbyes at her grave, I left her angel statue at her grave. When I got home, I played this song, and I bursted into tears. This song always reminds me of her. Her name was Amelia. August 27th 2019. She was 19. My best friend, My best mate, My angel from heaven. Rest with God Amelia, you will always be in my heart. 😔🙏🏻❤
FFDP absolute *_KILLS_* when they decide to cover a song! Loved this when it came out by Offspring. My son was 14 when this came out in '97. He died two years ago. I love this just as much today as we both did back then. R.I.P. my good friend & only Son. 🤘🏼
Found this video of Offspring and FFDP doing this song as a tribute to Chester Bennington. Thought you might especially appreciate it. From one parent to another, I am sorry for your loss.🙏🏼 ruclips.net/video/Piq3-MC1LvI/видео.html&feature=share
My uncle recently passed away, this song hit me right in the feels, he was one of the most important people in my life, I miss him like crazy, this song basically describes how I feel right now
RIP DAD 10/4/1959- 2/16/2020...i love you and we all miss you every day. Missing your smartass comments right now with everything thats going on in the world...i hope you're at peace and no longer in any pain. Until we meet again...i love you and thank you for everything you taught me in life...i'll make you proud!
I lost my mother unexpectedly in 2013. I was only 17 at the time. I still feel lost without her, even at 25. Not a day goes by where I don't miss her. The Offspring was one of her favorite bands and FFDP is one of mine. To hear this cover tugs at my heart. 'Til we meet again, Mom.
It's super hard.I lost my mom to brain cancer over 20yrs ago and I'll never get over it.😢
Lost my mom 2 weeks after my 21st birthday and had not seen her in a year.I'm 30 now and have the same feeling....I can say that feeling may not ever go away.I've lost a few friends that were murdered as well and not a day goes by that I don't think about them all.Best thing to do is remember the good times to keep going on and stay happy otherwise it will eat you up.At some point you have to let go to a cetain extent.
I just lost my mom last night, and this version of this song sums up how much pain and sadness I feel and how I see the world.
😢😢😢 my Daddy is gone away...😢😢😢 and my Brothers 😔😔😔
Damn, I'm so sorry dude
I feel your pain bro i miss my mom
Sorry bro I feel your loss I lost my grandma 2 years ago
We lost our mom about two months ago. I feel your pain & I'm so sorry 🖤
I lost my first son 2 years on St.Patrics Day . I will try to keep this song until I can see him again. I will also try to find your CD . Thanks guys.
Definitely takes me back to my Marine Corps days. Rest in peace to my fellow service men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice and god bless to those who are still serving. OORAH!
Much respect!
Semper Fi brother
All gave some, some gave all.
Rest in Peace.
Gone but never forgotten.
Salute
Semper Fi brother well said
Jarrod Black I too am a fellow Marine and I can most certainly relate. Semper Fi
This song goes out to all those we have loved and lost over the years... they wont be forgotten!
This song reminds of my friend that had died in a car crash when we were just seven years old I miss him dearly. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of him. I just wish he could be here with me today so we could see each other once more. R.I.P to everyone anyone has ever lost in their lives may all their souls find the light.
@@yeetyyeet990 Im so very sorry about your friend. Just remember he is always with you... Play this song and let him know it's for him. They can hear us and know our emotions from the other side.
My grandfather died in a motorcycle accident 3 years ago but it still haunts me because I was supposed to be on the back of the motorcycle
this brings me back to the brothers and sisters ive lost and continue to lose every day, i cant serve anymore but i live and breathe for the men and women that sacrifice themselves. so their death isnt in vain
Reminds me of when I lost my brother in a car accident about 17 years ago. I was only six and we had an unbreakable bond until that one day he was taken from this earth. Even though he's gone now, I still feel him near a lot and that's what keeps me gripped to life to this day.
_"I can't bring back what's taken from me...Oh please, let me trade. I would."_
_there's the feels-kicker_
Great lyrics indeed.....but you are aware they didn't write this yeah?
Im here for ffdp
@@cddc785who cares. That comment has nothing to do with who wrote it
I would 😢
As a 15 year old, I’m literally listening to this song playing Xbox as I got the call that my grandpa had passed away. I had literally just lost my stepdad a year ago and now my grandpa. As I walked into the hospital in tears, this song is going through my mind the whole time saying my final goodbyes until we meet again. I’m about to face life and reality and not be a kid anymore. I have a long hard road ahead of me and it’s just not easy to take in the death of a loved one. Lost but not forgotten. I can’t wait to see you again grandpa. Love you and god bless you. I hope I never forget this song.
Wise words my man cherish your family with everything you have, sometimes you dont realize what you have until it's gone.
I also had a wakeup call at an early age. The comfortable life i had was gone and replaced with nightmares and heartache. And when i say gone i mean almost literally. My dog/childhood best friend was murdered, dad was diagnosed with alzheimers(he's dying), childhood home lost and everything stolen. Had to move into a shitty tiny camper with my abusive ex. Went from being comfortable surrounded by family to dirt poor and depressed, accompanied by drug use and bruises. Became a cat hoarder. I'm 23 and I'm out the relationship but things are still rough. Just lost my daughter(my cat) and I'm not okay.
Appreciate what you have. Even the small things that don't seem to have importance because it does. Enjoy the time you can with your family and be the best you can be for yourself. I miss waking up to the smell of coffee, cartoons playing, birds chirping early in the morning with the sun shining through the trees into my window with cold feet from October weather.
You really don't know what you have until it's gone. Not truly.
And word of advice, just because someone might have it a little worse than you doesn't mean you shouldn't try to keep your head above the water. Don't wait until you hit rock bottom to fix your life or to start focusing on your feelings. Treat it seriously as soon as you feel yourself start to sink. And remember, help is always nice but in the end it's yourself you should rely on the most.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Same
keep your head up, kid. sorry about your grandfather
B strong man
I've not lost anybody extremely close to me yet but, this song still brings tears to my eyes. To those of you who have lost someone close to you, remember that their love for you will never die and some day you will see them again.
I've lost family and nearly a few friends. It sucks. I wouldn't wish death on anyone, not even my worst enemy.
Tris The Tinman just lost my grandpa 4 and a half hours ago. I was in the room when he took his last breath. This song is helping me a lot.
Thank you
God Bless you 🤘🏻🤘🏻💜💚😇
@@nikkicoleman2046 Thank you
This song reminds me of my mother that died when I was 8 years old. So many times I've said Heaven is so far away and wishing I could bring her back. I still miss her everyday. 3/22/11
Same mercy mi. My mom passed 02/22/08. I was 9. Everytime i hear this song I look up and silently ask to trade places
I'm the same, my mum passed when I was 11 years old on 16/05/02. I miss her even more now I'm a parent myself
Sorry for your Loss....
R.I.P
Not to make the situation even worse but I did as well lose my mother in a house fire when I was 8 on 3/27/12, life just goes on and you have to accept it. It may hurt at first but you’ll come to terms that their deaths weren’t for nothing... her death made me realize the good in life and how to cherish people and hold on to the ones that are still here. Even at my weakest I’m still there for everyone because you never know the day you or they will be gone... don’t ever take it for granted.
My brother William I never got to meet he died in foster care his foster mom beat him to death .. is prob the one that was like this for me I feel better now I named my son after him and his memory lives on
I lost my dad to cancer last year, he was the most selfless and caring man I’ve ever known, he’d put his things aside to help others with their needs. He made friends with everyone that treated him like a good human being he was. He had many close calls with death before and that opened his eyes to love and treat everybody the way they treated him. His service in the Coast Guard was not forgotten as he saved lives in his years of service. I miss him every day and I wish I could have said goodbye before his end.
I wish the same..wish I had more time with my dad
This is such a beautiful and touching song. Several months ago during my pregnancy, two doctors and a specialist gave me some devastating news that my baby girl was not going to survive after my delivery. I was told it was possible she was going to pass away at anytime while being in the womb, or shortly after I give birth to her.
On my last appointment, I was told “ma’am ... have you thought about getting started on a burial for your child? Or maybe thought about cremation? Or .. any arrangements at all?”
I held in my tears and emotions as much as I could till I got to my vehicle. As soon as I sat down in my car, I bursted into tears and I screamed why her. Why, my baby. It wasn’t fair for her to not live and experience life that is now being taken away from her and so soon.
Shortly after getting myself together, when I was leaving from the parking lot, this song came on. It brought more tears to my eyes and the pain felt even worse. Although, she was still alive and moving. It felt as if she was taken away from me the moment the doctors had told me about setting up arrangements.
I was 100% sure that I wanted to play this song when the time came.
........ on April 6th, 2020 at 1:53am... I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl who was diagnosed to be healthy and was going to live after all! ❤️ (‘:
Every time I hear this song, it brings tears to my eyes. Knowing I might have lost her.
God is good. ❤️🙏🏼
It’s moments like this that I read the comments. So happy for you. Congratulations to you and yours. May God watch over and protect that child all the days of its life.
May God bless you and your little girl. This is beautiful. :) ❤
🙏❤💋
Thank Jesus, it was him that let your daughter live her life! God bless you and your family!
Really beautiful story, I wish the same happened to me but unfortunately my baby is not with me. I only wish I can se him again and never separate 😭😭💙
I lost my grandfather to lung cancer when I was 6. Even though that was 13 years ago as of typing this comment, I still remember his face like it was just last week. Every time I hear this song, I am reminded of him. He was such a cool person to be around. You could hold a conversation with him for ages, he was very religious, he never swore, and he was even a parachute rigger for the navy during Vietnam. God, I miss him.
Brain cancer took my aunt when I was 9. Fourth grade. I remember her face too. I still stop by her grave when I can.
To my brother, whom passed away a week ago. I am so, so sorry I couldn't do more. I wish you had reached out to me before it was too late. I know things were not good, i know you struggled... I'm so sorry. Please find peace brother.
JAN 1981 - JUNE 2019
TGabrielC13 I'm sorry man, I would trade places with him if i coudl
I'm sorry for your loss. All wounds heal in time. 🖤
i am so sorry
I'm right here with you brother, lost a best friend, and brother in arms on Friday, hang in there
I lost my 6 month old son on New Years Eve and this song explains exactly how I feel.
i'm so sorry for your loss, how are you doing now?
I can relate and I’m so sorry for your loss
My son passed away Jan 13,2010 he was born at 26weeks on Aug 9,2009 . He never came home,
When I heard this song I cried. It touched me to the core.
“I reach to the sky, and call out your name oh please let me trade I WOULD” and the tears rolled
I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my only child, Leo on 21st January 2024 to a Medulloblastoma brain tumour. He had the worst of its kind. He was only diagnosed on 15th Jan 2024. 6 days later he died. He was only 2 years old 😭
It's Mother's Day in UK today and to say I'm struggling is an understatement. This song has been on repeat for almost an hour.
@@Axel_homie I'm just trying to get through it one day at a time.
Man, I don't know about anyone else, but as soon as it gets to the lyrics "I reach to the sky, and call out your name. Oh please, let me trade. I would." for the first time in the song, I can't help but tear up a bit. Anyone that's someone unexpectedly loss someone or a loved one will definitely have this song hit close to home.
the whole song is a full reflection of the misery after a huge lost. All parts hits another feeling. i know this song for years and the part how hit me the most is
"Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
But black roses and Hail Mary's
Can't bring back what's taken from me"
There is something in life you will never have back it doesnt matter what you do, what u wish, what u think or what you believe... the person is gone and not just out of your life, you will never have the chance again to see the person.... and that is so fucking brutal, savage, rekt... the most brutal part by this lost.
A reflection? more like a regret. after the bridge in the original he screams "Don't sell your soul" why? I was 28 when The offspring broke and they were huge with "Come out and Play" only the writer know's why he screamed out those words. But this song is total rubbish.....
he says "I'll save your soul" (this part shows that u want protect the person also after the dead, so much love) i know it is hard to hear but search for the lyrics. It is nothing about regret it is all about misery. Do you mean the song is rubbish or the cover? This song is one of the top 5 songs by offspring and my personal nr1. But the cover is shit in my opinion.
No the remake is rubbish IMO and your right but is there a definite lyric sheet I've looked, Also it was during there decline a bit and I'm not sure how he could save someones soul? A real cover is "The Sound of Silence"
Your lyrics "Dont sell your soul" make for me no sense in the whole song. "I`ll save your soul" can you interpret in different ways one is "even he cant trade" he do everything to honor the person to dont forget the person...but they are always other option left, you can do it for your own.
My grandfather died yesterday. This man showed me how to be a better man, how to treat a woman with love and respect, showed me how to work on cars, gave me my first shot of tequila, and showed me how beautiful life can be. It still feels so surreal. This song definitely hits close to home. R.I.P Abuelito Daniel. I love u and miss you
Fitting this released not long after my grandfather passed away.. Man was like a father to me. Goddammit ffdp for making me cry.
Matthew Ketchen I'm so sorry for your loss
IanRocks2003 thanks man
Matthew Ketchen your welcone
I had metallica black album on when I found out the news about my grandfather he was my father figure as well and that album holds my heart forever for that. r.i.p to our grandpa's who where also our father's growing up.
Sorry for your loss, brother.
Last November was the last concert I went to with my best friend before he passed away, it was of course 5fdp since we are die hard knuckleheads, this would have been the perfect song for his funeral. Way to go on this jam guys, yall do the best covers
Robby Keene I'm sorry about your best friend, but I agree with you on many things
this would be a beautiful song for your best friend and my little sister
and ffdp does do really good cover music :)
His voice is so unique its so powerful and peaceful at the same time.
It's a mic effect like as ozzy does
it enhances the voice give it more girth.. Motionless in White used it for this song. every studio vocal has some kind of effect.. Ivan is a good singer, but this effect is his signature.. he uses it live to.. this is motionless in white using the same effect.. ruclips.net/video/DwCC9RM0D2w/видео.html
Andrew Knox who is ozzy?
xxAWESOME BROxx the guy who made crazy train........
The effect ozzy has on he vocal is slight pitchshift..plus reverb
My god. FFDP are the master of covering songs. Every time its just so amazing and well done. I love a band that can cover a song and make it their own.
"I can't bring back what's taken from me" lyric hits home. For those who've lost someone they truly care and almost can't breathe without understand......this song is phenomenal...love the original and ffdp did this song justice
It sure fucking does, i lost my Dad, 2 days before my birthday, he was 51, i was 10
@@aceofthesky1247 Sorry for your loss you aren't alone I lost my dad back in 2014 its tough.. stay strong
Scott Unrue i do i really do
@Jennifer Callahan STUDENT i lost mine back in november, sorry for your loss
I lost my uncle 8 days before memorial day and I'm still morning him to this day and I miss him everyday that I'm alive
This song goes out to my grandma who sadly passed away from cancer 3 years ago I miss you everyday. To my wife's mom who lost her courageous battle to covid last year we miss both of you everyday we may hurt, we will cry, our hearts will ache but we all see you in a better place
This cover of The Offspring's Gone Away is a great rendition. Ivan even got the emotion of it down, well done.
Offspring did the song again in new album called Let the Bad Time Roll
Didnt know it was an offspring song first gonna have to check it out
Honestly I like the song, the instrumentals are great, and Ivan had PERFECT timing, but i feel like he could have gone harder in a few parts. I prefer the offspring version due to that, but ffdp did an amazing job with a hard to beat classic
I’m so
Didn't know this, I'll check that out; thanks!
My ex gf was a beautiful and sweet girl, even after our fallout. She was taken in a tragic accident just before turning 17. Left her sunflowers on her birthday, to show that I still care. The world truly got colder as I got the news she was gone.
My Fiancé died in a car accident about six months before the original song came out., It will always be the song I think of when I think of her. I broke down in tears when I first heard it. Having said that this a fitting tribute to that song. Thank you.
My father died 2 years ago... I did the same thing
Jack Allen sorry for your loss brother
Sorry for your loss
wait didn't I see this in the offspring video...
Jack Allen im sorry to hear about your fiance passing. 💔
I lost my mama on April 30,2002.Even after all these yrs I still have a hard time coping sometimes.When I hear this song I think of her.
I lost mine in the same year but in may. I totally know what you mean, it doesn't get easier, you just learn how to put it to one side and get on with it
To me, the best 5FDP songs are those slow ones. Heavy, deep and melodic. Came here for the song only and ended up seeing most comments of people that have died. God bless and comfort all those people that have lost the beloved ones!
This song needs to be played more often on the radio
Man I can not wait for the new album!
Lethal Headshot This is from their greatest hits album.
he probably means he can't wait for their next actual album
The new album will be epic.
The song and video reminds me of my brother in arms in the army that died saving the life of myself and another. David you will always be remembered for what you gave to and for me.
I've just lost my grandmother ... and this song is everything that I feeling right now. Grandma I pray for you, rest in peace. I LOVE YOU
My prayers goes out to you and your loved ones during these difficult times.
@@black-kitten3225Thank you so much!!
To my friends who took there lives. To my friend and grandmother who lost there battle with cancer and to my sister whom i never got to meet. I love you all and you are apart of me no matter what. Choosing to live on for you is a daily struggle but i will fight until i have no fight left. Please remember no matter what you go through there is always a reason to keep fighting.
Edit: not even 24 hours after finding this song and remember all the loved ones i lost, my mom got a phone call. My grandmother on her side had a stroke in her sleep which landed her in the ER. Early the next morning she took her last breath. This song is getting me through hell. Thankyou for your music.
My little brother was killed trying to break up a fight... He was the kind of person that everyone loved to see and hang out with. This song means so much to me. I know The Offspring wrote the original but you guys did such a great job covering it! Makes me cry every time. Not only because it's absolutely beautiful but, so meaningful for me as well. I love you guys. You all are so great! Glad you're doing better Ivan. What i would do to meet you all!
This song reminds me of my ex. Bless his soul but he was hurt in his life, he tried attempting a couple times but when I sang this song to him he hasn't tried since so thank you Ivan you saved his life. But I still comforted him without the song though regardless you helped us a lot he had a sad soul
I listened to this song on repeat on my way to my step aunts funeral she was only 50 something years old and was going to retire at the end of October never got to see her since the thanksgiving before it’s been almost a year now I miss her every day.
Fly high Kelly we still love you.
I cant stop listening to this song,
It is just amazing
I lost my momma in June, 2 months before I got to see 5FDP back in August. When they played this song I immediately thought of her and burst into tears. It was such an insane experience. I felt as if she was right above me while I cried. It was so damn good!!!
They keep getting better and better! Damn, I love this band. I can't describe how beautiful this song is. Maybe even my favorite so far, it's just so emotional and deep.
Draug Dae The song was originally by The Offspring
Draug Dae it's a cover song
Draug dae I agree this is a very amazing and beautiful song
I love the really heavy songs but this is the best song of the year, this song just cheard me up from a bad day
this is a pretty good cover but 5FDP are not getting "better and better", their own material is getting duller and duller. At least IMO and I know many agree
The guitar solo is a perfection...one of the best
Not the first time a FFDP song made me cry, and won’t be the last either .
amen brother
Yes! All the damn time.... in fact, when I need a good cry, I just put these guys on to get it over with.... cue the water works
iwtmltyb yes it is
it is offspring cover
well I don't care I like ffdp's cover then geeze
Lyrics
Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal it's so unfair
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah, it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've gone away
Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
Black roses and Hail Mary's
I can't bring back what's taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
Oh, please let me trade
I would
And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings
Yeah, it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you've gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh, yeah oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
Oh, please let me trade

And it feels, yeah it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels, yeah it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings, yeah, it stings now
The world is so cold, now that you've gone away
Gone away

Rest In Peace my grandfather I never got to see and same for my great grandfather, I have heard from my father that you two were in WWII and Vietnam and you two have told me so much about it’s not about why you give up it’s about how you gave up. Thank you for all the inspiration from you two for helping me get through live and thank you grandfather for being the father of my father.
My sincerest condolances to all who have losed. I my mother passed when I was 11. My father in my early 20s. My little nephew (More like my younger brother) just a cuople years ago. My brother (Who was more like my father) just this past weekend. And so many more along the way. My aunt Mary, Uncle Danny, Uncle Frank and Aunt June...
Two weeks ago I lost my dad, It's so hard to think that he is gone. I love this song and it does ease the pain.
I will be honest I actually did shed some tears for the song. You just get an overwhelming feeling of emotions.
Travis Frank same
Travis Frank me too
Travis Frank be my friend .this hits me so bad .x
That is a good so that I cry so bad my face was red.
Travis Frank I feel ya man
Lost my wife of 10 yrs. This song helped. I will always remember her when I hear this. Laurie R.I.P. Love You
I heard this on my way home and I had to pull over to cry. I miss my parents so much. Never take them for granted. We get one life and one set of parents. Love them with all you've got while they're here...!!
❤️🙏
Saw this live in concert and I balled my eyes out. I lost my big brother to a horrific car accident in August 2018 me and all my brothers friends went to Biloxi to see them as a tribute for my big brother. He loved FFDP. Best night of my life. We cried but we also rocked out for him. I love you Hayden 9/8/95 - 8/5/18 til I see you again.
Losing my dad to cancer was the most hardest thing I have dealt with in my life... he was 48 when he passed away and I'm 22... today marks exactly 1 month of his passing... not a day goes by where I don't think of my father.. this song expresses exactly how I feel..
I just decided to read the comments and i ended up reading this. I feel for you, I love my mother to cancer in 2016 when I was only 15. I hope your life is doing better since then.
It's hard losing a parent, I was 18 when my dad passed in 1990, I was 40 when my mom passed in 2012. I'm 48 now and it hurts a lot still and would give anything to have them still here.
he will always be with you
Sorry I lost my beautiful wife in Feb 15 2018 i look up to the sky y gone away
don't think of the loss just good memories you have
I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG ALREADY.
I lost a good friend of mine that I served with in the Marines and everytime I hear this song I remember all the good times and the shitty times we went through together. He was a good man, RIP brother, til Valhalla
21 years to this day my brother past away and this was a major song in my life. Love Offspring. Thank you FFDP for this. RIP JASON FLY HIGH MY BROTHER Gone to soon.
i agree with you when this song came out that day in the morning my great aunt died
I feel the same my brother passed 4 years ago this was his favorite band so I'm really glad for this song
Se7enty4 Gaming im sorry bro the FFDP fans are here for you
Se7enty4 Gaming too soon*
Se7enty4 Gaming May your brother soar with the angels
I dedicated this song to my mother Irene Almeida who passed in June 30 2016 years pass but your memory will always be remembered mother I love you and I miss you godbless and I send my condolences to anyone who lost their loved ones
One of my best friends died of cancer a year ago on December 18th and I’m sitting here in my truck listening and singing in tears thinking of him. Everything I do will be for him. Gone too soon.
Lost my baby brother last year, life is never going to be the same, to this day I look to the sky and feel the warmth of the sun, I know it’s him watching over us
I’m deemed emotionless by most of my family and friends lol, and this actually jerked a tear from me. Love this. Miss you, grandpa.
Yesterday, my friend that I've known for ten years took his own life. He was young, incredibly intelligent, and had such a unique personality. I noticed a change in how he acted, but never questioned it. Whenever I hear this song, I can't help but cry. Suicide is a horrible thing. It affects everyone who's ever known you/them. It invokes questions that can't be answered. Please, please help those who are depressed. Don't make my mistake. Know the signs. Help prevent horrible tragedies like this one.
Evan Gibeau I'm sorry for your loss
Evan Gibeau
Agreed. In psychology, we learned the signs when people will commit suicide, the most blatant of which is the abrupt change of one’s personality. We were given a list of hotlines to prevent suicides, to act on it. I know that people dismiss these things commonly, but they help. And don’t blame yourself, that is not the way.
I hope that one day you will find peace of mind over such a matter and i am truly sorry for your loss
Insane Mang thank you.
Terribly sorry for you’re loss
My sister loved FFDP...she died unexpectedly in a motorcycle accident. She was the coolest, most badass woman I've ever known. She was the best big sister to me and she helped me make certain choices and she told me everything I need to know about college. Almost everything. This was my freshman year and she died 1 month 1 week and 1 day ago. Losing her we lost a whole lot. We lost a daughter, a big sister, a best friend, an adventurer, and a badass woman.
Thank you for posting about your sister. No one on this string knew your sister, but from what you describe - she sounds like a true badass. You're not alone in your loss. Yes your loss is unique to you. But so many on this string love this FFDP cover because it gives a badass tribute to those on the other side. Stay strong KJ.
Sorry for your loss
Peace be with you! So sorry for your lose! If it makes you feel better think of it like this your badass sister had to go to Heaven n get things setup for you when you go home! She is making heaven a better place! Peace May your heart heal n you know no more pain!!
The life is a joke, the best people go away, while those who should go are obstructing others. Im so sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss of your sister, she sounds so awesome. I lost my dad 8 years ago and this song is beautiful.
5fdp is all about the military and people in recovery....God bless you all and keep praying for all our service men and women.
This cover came out the day my mother passed away blew my mind because every word is so true. Rip mom ❤️
Lost my cousin 8 years ago,2 grandparents and mother in space of 3 years. This song absolutely breaks me every time I hear it but I love it so much
Every FFDP song has intense emotion and I love it. Not much other bands can do that
So True..
You do realise that the original song is by The Offspring right ?
Klemen Polajzer Well and i personally think that 5FPD has given this song more of a punch. I don’t know how to descripe it but the instruments and Ivan voice really gives the song and lyrics so much power.
Jessi this
i couldnt have said it better
Lost my dad on the 4th of July this year, 2022, and he was such a big fan of you guys and your music. He was in the army. I promised him in 2018 that I'd take him to your concert if you came to Spokane, WA and you played December 13th here and I went without him. You guys were amazing and he would have loved everything about that show. This song hits differently now.
FFDP did it again. Took an awesome song and added that feeling that only FFDP can express. I can't get enough. \m/
It's just Never Enough ;)
What other songs have they done?
xhockeyx2730
Bad company, house of the rising sun, momma said knock you out, we will rock you, spirit of the radio, walk, thunderkiss 65, blackhole sun
They did a good cover but it is not as good as the original. Also a lot more raw emotion by Offspring in my opinion.
Agreed! FFDP has done it again!
I find this soothing... Thank-you gentlemen for your efforts. Appreciated
I got out of prison on 6/4/18.
That said, this was the first song I heard on the radio and it did not disappoint.
What were you in for?
Glad your out man I hope your doing good and beat parole bro. I've got 4 felonies and many misdemeanors and have come close brother

@@DontTripChocolateDrip did they deserve it?
@@DontTripChocolateDrip and was it worth it?
This song is so good I'm legit crying in my car, remembering my good friend Ken who died 9 years ago, and my friend Leah and my grandfather, both who died back in 2021.
I just lost my little sister. She only had 3 months to deal with Pancreatic Cancer. She was a Force of Nature, one you didn't want to mess with. She fought til the end. And she looked up to me.....what am I going to do without her? She leaves behind a bewildered husband and 6 devastated children. She loved FFDP so this song is so special now.
I'm so sorry for the loss of your sister. I'm so sorry.
8 months ago, I hope it's easier now she watches over you but I know deep down how you feel. I am the one of six, I feel a strong pain I cannot replace, this makes it strong to know she has an incredible sibling who cares. The force of nature is nothing without the roots around her. Sorry for your loss bless you all
As if my heart wasn't broken enough, I just lost my son at the age of 30. My only child. The only Solace I have is knowing they are together. My cheering squad in Heaven. I am so lost.
My significant other passed away 10-3-22.. my whole world is just shattered.. this song expresses so much of the pain I'm feeling at the moment... R.I.P JME.... I love you.
Don't ever lose those memories Ruby trust in the Lord will guide your way
As a kid, i used to love singing along to the offspring.
As an adult. I cant stop crying, knowing the state of the country as it is.
I hate when people get mad when people cover a song. Always have something to say like not near as good as original or I like there original stuff better. What you fail to realize is its not about sounding like the original. Its about feeling something from a song and expressing your personal emotion through the song. Not about trying to be a copycat. Of course that would be annoying just like tribute bands.
We get made when the original band aren't credited anywhere saying that this was a cover
I just had a listen to the original, now quickly note that I already don't like the offspring, I only like two songs from them. But I truly must say that this version is 100 times way better
Ash R Dude, we don't really care. It's just a fucking song, plus the Offsping's version has 20 million views on the video. I think that they assumed people just knew of the original.
Well sometimes the cover doesnt do the original justice. I for one hat panic at the discos cover of bohemian rhapsody
Right below this comment is 3 comments saying offspring's version is better, I thought that was funny lol
I think its safe to say, you guys remain my favorite band.
Mudkip 454
Them and linkin park
Mudkip 454 they arent as good as lp
Nicole Meehan I disagree, lp is trash of late
Clashing Snow to me they will never be trash
hell yeah man. this is why I've got a few tattoos inspired by them.
RIP sweetheart, no one can replace you, but thank you for coming to me in a dream to give me my heart back... great things are worth waiting for... no matter how long it takes, I'll wait for the one I'm supposed to be with.. as you said, "If we were meant to be together, it would've worked out"... I will miss you, but as I live on, and remember you, you'll never truly die. good bye.
I'm not the emotional type but I feel for you I truly do I am so sorry for your loss, Everything happens for a reason wither we agree with It or not stay strong.
Sorry for your loss. It will never go away, but the pain will numb and happiness will return if you let it. Good luck, just know strength doesn't come over night. But with time. You are not alone.
Skye Walker your profile pic is the traditional Chinese translation for dragon, right?
Feel for you and understand. I lost my baby girl .life will never be as happy as it once was
I have always loved Five Finger Death Punch and I have listened to this song a million times. After my baby sister committed suicide, it took on a whole new meaning. I actually understood every word instead of just thinking it was a rad song. Every word of this song now connects to me so deeply. I know this feeling more than I ever wanted to or ever though I should. But thank you Five Finger Death Punch for putting words to an unexplainable pain and sorrow. Thank you for giving a voice to people like me that have/had no idea how to express the raw emotions they were/are feeling. You gave words to an unimaginable pain and sorry when I had none to give. Thank you!!!
Powerful and emotional! Ivan's vocals nail the emotion here.
dexter de the offspring escribio esta cancion por su mujer muerta,crees que puede tener mas sentimiento solo porque lo hacen mas lento? no creo.
Mikesdailyjukebox right! I feel the power
Not what I expected...but I don't regret clicking on this video!
This cover is awesome! I love this version as much as the original! They did a great job with it in their own style
Oh, that's good to know, thank you! I've only heard this song just now, so this seems like the original lol
Struggling over the past month coming to terms with my Aunt's more or less expected passing. This song brings up those feelings of grief, but it also brings up memories of good times and great moments. I love 5fdp for the powerful music that let's me headbang one minute then take a trip to the deepest parts of my mind the next. R.I.P Auntie may you bring your trademark sarcasm and deadpan sass to all of the angels! (or demons let's be honest lol)
They did great job bringing this song back
I know he's been back for awhile but I'm missed ivan and all my prayers went to him and his family. I'm glad he's back
Jada Smith me too😁😁
Jada Smith I went to one of their concerts a couple months ago whenever people weren’t for sure if Ivan was back. Let me tell you, it was the greatest feeling when everything lit up and they start going at it with Ivan in the middle. I’m soo glad he’s back.
Stealthy Weasel it's always be one of my dreams too go to their concerts, there songs mean a lot to me and my family. So I get that feeling
Jada Smith it’s worth all the money in the world. They are truly an amazing band.
Stealthy Weasel Omg I bet. It would honestly be a dream come true
When I hear this song I think about my cousin. A little more than two years ago he was taken from us by gun violence. I'm for gun rights. But the way he was taken was so unnecessary. I was unable to attend his funeral. And it tears me up inside. My cousin probably never heard of Five Finger Death Punch. But I sure as hell would have introduced him to them. When I listen to this song, it helps me push away the guilt. David Ballinger, I love you cousin and I miss you. #gonebutneverforgoten
For what it’s worth, i’m young enough to where i’d never heard the original before this cover.
As time goes on, some songs get buried with the times, and I believe covers reinvigorate the originals with relevant context of the current-most generation.
And that is important when a good song is made- sometimes it needs a modern take in order for modern times to take in its meaning correctly.
As a metal head, I appreciate FFDP’s version of this song. Lyrically, the story is the same as The Offspring’s version (obviously). But the way FFDP composed this makes it so much different...personally, I like The Offspring’s version better. But music isn’t an argument over who’s better. It’s all in perspective, and this is very easily respectable and VERY kickass. Good job FFDP for doing a great justice to a great song👍
You're probably the only person who is being reasonable here. Everyone in the comments is arguing that this cover sucks,
I agree! Perfect comment! 👌
David perez I love a lot of stuff they do. I won’t lie, im way more into their older stuff but regardless they kick ass. They’ve overcome a lot with Ivan’s problems and I love that. A lot of bands would disperse or simply just not be the same but they consistently put out good shit
For me, personally, I also like the Offspring version. This version gives me no feeling. Offspring made me feel the pain of the song. However, I can appreciate the effort of FFDP in doing it. To each their own. I won't argue about it. Either way, it's still a lot better than their cover of House of the Rising Sun. That, to me, was atrocious.
Matt Carpenter I wish he would of change his pitch more on the chorus. I like this version better than the original. I just don't care for the voice of the singer for the offspring
Holy metal heaven! This song is so powerful. I lost my sons father 26 years ago he was killed in the line of duty and this song just touched a spot.
Aww! Thanks I really appreciate that. You’re amazing.
@@ivanmoodyghost3381 Thank you for responding.
@@deannaferguson3021 It's so nice hearing back from you Fan,and i really appreciate your love and support always. where are you from and where are you born..??
*WARNING*
Those listening to this song are at risk of being subject to extreme feels. Caution recommended for those with human emotions.
And suicide
Thank god im a cold hearted emotionless prick then😂
@@randypeace3523 Right there with you buddy.
Yeah, treu it is REALLY touching man...
No i didn't lose someone recently but i geuss i lost my self long ago.
Got better,more social,GF, friends.
But still feel lost and lonely.
Love ffdp
Very well said!
FFDP will never realize how much therapy they've given me through their music. It's been just a little over a year since I lost both of my grandparents at the hand of my own brother. The world is so cold now that they've gone away...
When I saw the song list I was pretty sad when there was only one new song, BUT OH WAS IT SO WORTH IT! I LOVE IT
there are 2, trouble and this one
yeah cause it's a greatest hits album. I'm just happy they decided to put 2 new songs on it. I'm excited for the new album sometime spring next year though!
4 years ago, I had a friend that loved country, but always loved rock, she was my best friend, my best mate, my angel from heaven who always had my back, and I always had hers. We met in high school, beginning of senior year. We would draw, hang out at my grandfather's backyard, and lay down on the grass, and just talk. We both never wanted to part ways. 1 year later, I'm working on the weekend, and she called me, and just said " we're going to prom, and we're gonna slow dance to our favorite country song. 😁" and I replied with "😳 HELL YEAH! 🤘🏻😝🤘🏻" we slow danced to "Remember When" by Alan Jackson. Then when we got back to her place, we saw this song on the recommended page. We loved it. But then she said "if I pass away, I want you to play this at my funeral." It kinda made us a little sad, but we didn't think too much on it. A few days later I ask if we can go for a walk. We walk to the park, and I ask her if she will be by with me. (Not Merry, just be in a relationship with me) she grabs my hands, and says, "I would love to, but im scared of hurting you, I don't want there to a argument to where we don't want to be with each other anymore. I will have to think about it. I promise to give you a answer." We both continued back to her place, and we hung out. A week later I get a phone call.......it's her parents.
They called me and told me that she died from a asthma attack, they called 911, but by the time they got there, there was no puls. I broke down, and I had to leave work, and meet with her parents to arrange a wake, and then a bariel. I didn't want to accept the fact that she was gone. I got back to the truck, and asked "why God? Why her?" My heart felt like it was ripped in half. A few days later at the wake, I played our prom song. "Remember When" by Alan Jackson. When I said my goodbyes at her grave, I left her angel statue at her grave. When I got home, I played this song, and I bursted into tears. This song always reminds me of her.
Her name was Amelia.
August 27th 2019.
She was 19.
My best friend,
My best mate,
My angel from heaven.
Rest with God Amelia, you will always be in my heart. 😔🙏🏻❤
Sorry for your loss mate. She’ll always be with you by your side spiritually.

Sorry for your loss and I also have asthma and sometimes think that I can just die
This song is amazing I love the new Ivan!!
bradley nelson whos the new ivan?
Him being back from rehab and getting clean like he has been. That’s what I mean
bradley nelson ohhhhh
FFDP absolute *_KILLS_* when they decide to cover a song! Loved this when it came out by Offspring. My son was 14 when this came out in '97. He died two years ago. I love this just as much today as we both did back then. R.I.P. my good friend & only Son. 🤘🏼
Found this video of Offspring and FFDP doing this song as a tribute to Chester Bennington. Thought you might especially appreciate it. From one parent to another, I am sorry for your loss.🙏🏼
