I definitely should've read the warning sign. Side effect may include: Thinking about your recent ex. Missing your recent ex. Cry like you never cried before. Texting your recent ex.
When this came out my partner was obsessed with it. He loves Badflower and was dying from a chronic lung disease the entire time I knew him. I knew I'd lose him young, but not this young. I could never stomach this song because of it, but he adored it. He passed away Monday, 9/20/21, at 24 years old and there isn't a word that exists to describe how this feels, and this song means so much more now. Thank you for putting out music that made him happy during his short life. Until we meet again, Myles. I love you endlessly.
I adore the storytelling in this video, showing how two lovers meet as children, and then make us believe we are viewing the young adult versions of them. When in reality, this is just how they still see themselves, and continue to until the gravity of age and illness snaps them back to the ignored reality that they have gotten old. Yet the second the danger has passed their love for one another refocuses their view to young, wild, paramours. Such a wonderful love, one that allows you to forget the ravages of time and focus on what is important in life, living it, until your final day.
That was my interpretation too, at least I hope that's what it was, I don't like the idea of a woman being a coma that long and waking up to find herself old thats... creepy as hell
Oh, that's a nice interpretation! I was thinking maybe she had a recurring illness of some sort and her being in the hospital when they're older reminds him of when she was in the hospital longer ago and so it's like a parallel of two hospital stays that both happened years apart. But I suppose in your version, they don't have to deal with the hospitalizations for longer.
Josh has enough baggage that he has no difficulty in crying. I cannot imagine what it does to his soul to sing out his heart every night and relive those emotions. He's in my prayers.
You have no idea the emothions this song is bringing on... me and my girlfriend watched this video 100 times before her heart surgery... i never thought id be living this video. RIP Shauna Smith. i wont say goodbye.
The next time you see an elderly person, try and remember this video. They too were once young and vibrant and played and pretended to fly. Show some damn respect because one day you too will be there. Aged bodies die. Young hearts don't.
I agree that people deserve respect regaurdless of age, but we also need to remember we should respect people because they deserve it rather than simply because they're older than us..
This video hit so close to home for me. I'm a married, mother of 2 small kids and just recently was diagnosed with a heart condition. I'm terrified every moment that any second could be my last and I won't get to see my kids grow up.
No matter what create a lasting memory. That's what you should strive for. It doesn't have to be big. Just be the best you can and be happy you did your best. We'll all leave this world but it's how others remember you that counts more than anything else. Be a terrific mom. Show no fears. Show your strengths to the little ones. So that they know you were strong. But all will go well. You'll be a grandma in no time. Haha much love to you! Never give up.
Promise Me Lyrics: We're getting old now But I don't feel it I say you're beautiful And I still mean it And I don't wanna know What old age feels like So promise me you won't Give up on this life And we'll be busy tryin' While the rest of them are dyin' Promise me we'll never grow up I don't wanna let go I wanna stay young And even when the wrinkles show up We'll be laughing, and We can play forever Don't make me face the truth I think it's obvious That we'll stay happy 'Cause I'm the happiest When you smile at me And we won't end the same A broken family I'll never walk away Without you with me And times are getting harder But I'm nothing like my father Promise me we'll never grow up I don't wanna fall out I wanna make love And even when we can't, so what? We're together and happy ever after Don't make me face the truth That I'm dying soon We're dying too And we're so much older All I want is one more life with you When did we get so old? Why'd you get so sick? And how could you die? You promised me you'd never grow up Now I have to let go God, I miss you so much And even when your heart gave out I was thinkin' I I won't say goodbye You promised me you'd never grow up But you fucking grew up God, I miss you so much And even when your heart gave out I was thinkin' I'd Love you 'til forever And I can't face the truth That I died with you That you lied
Lyrics We're getting old now (We're getting old now) But I don't feel it (But I don't feel it) I say you're beautiful (I say you're beautiful) And I still mean it (And I still mean it) And I don't wanna know (And I don't wanna know) What old age feels like (What old age feels like) So promise me you won't (So promise me you won't) Give up on this life (Give up on this life) And we'll be busy tryin' While the rest of them are dyin' Promise me we'll never grow up I don't wanna let go I wanna stay young And even when the wrinkles show up We'll be laughing, and We can play forever Don't make me face the truth I think it's obvious That we'll stay happy 'Cause I'm the happiest ('Cause I'm the happiest) When you smile at me And we won't end the same A broken family I'll never walk away Without you with me And times are getting harder But I'm nothing like my father Promise me we'll never grow up I don't wanna fall out I wanna make love And even when we can't, so what?

You died
This is my favorite song, but i simply can't listen to it anywhere but my bed, just because i always cry when it plays. The emotion this song conveys are just top notch.
Though a very unconventional song, I walked down the aisle to this song. This song meant so much to us when we were going through hard times. In fact, I can't listen to this song and not get emotional. Life is short and precious, so take advantage of each moment you have with your special someone. You never know how long you have with them.
My boyfriend just sent this to me and I'm sobbing because I'm dealing with a ton of health issues rn. And this made me literally laugh out loud for a second or two. 😂
@@rezenking8426 Good name for a Detroiter. Shinedown rocked the world into submission, right? I did become a fan of Badflower for sure. It was a great concert.
I'm in awe of the music these guys write, and the videos they put out are amazing. I'm 52 years old and this is one of my favorite bands. I introduced this song to my 18 year old daughter who listens to what 18 year old girls listen to, and came home the other day, and she was in the shower blasting this song and singing it as loud as she could. I am proud or her.
@@kaimas1005 they at least have 2 songs (ghost and promise me). 3 if you count heroin. They have 3 songs my local radio plays from them. At least they aren't a one hit wonder.
I'm sorry about your husband. I too loss mine. He passed unexpectedly on morning of his Birthday. I found his body after he'd been gone 8+ hours. My SOUL DIED With his. So many things left unsaid and things we'll never get to do now. Presents he won't see now And a birthday cake he never got to light the candles on. My World as I knew it ended. I hope you have found peace with the passing of your spouse. I'm still TRYING!! 🥀💔🌟💖✨🌹
I'm very sorry you had to see this mortifying experience. Hopefully within the 7 months ago you wrote this you are feeling a bit happier. I'm sure you was a good wife as he was husband.
I’m so sorry. My younger brother passed away unexpectedly of a heart condition on June 4th. He left behind a loving wife and an adorable fur-daughter. We miss him so much. Please know that you are not alone.
This song hits home so hard that I'm a mess, I didn't expect to cry today. 18 years of marriage and my husband died from pancreatic cancer. I still have problems moving on and trying to survive without him. He was my world and it just gets harder. Beautiful song btw, brought back lots of memories.
my husband sent this to me about a year ago saying it was our song...I cry every time I hear it and I will avoid it sometimes. it hits home very strong for us because he will lose me due to my heart literally giving out due to a heart defect...I'm not crying...it's allergies 💔
I gotta say, i usually listen to heavier bands. Mostly metal and hard rock... but there`s something about these guys that makes them one of my favorite bands. I usually dont even give a single f about song lyrics but their songs are actually capable of making me cry every single time. please keep up the amazing work, "ok im sick" is one of the best modern rock/alternative albums ever made. this song is my favorite one off the album
I have to say this song really gets to me, just in February I had to put my dog down due to kidney failure, he was only 7, he was my best friend and he still had a lot of years ahead, we was so young, he always knew when I was upset , he listens to me better than anyone else, he was always there to comfort me and I always played with him and I grew up with him, we got him at 4 months, he was my bets friend... "You promised me you'd never grow up Now I have to let go God, I miss you so much And even when your heart gave out I was thinkin' how I won't say goodbye" That lyric got to me and made me cry so hard.. Rest in peace joey😢😭💔
Here the same. I heard the song on the radio. I searched for it the whole day, to read the lyrics once again. I lost my dog 8 weeks ago. I wished that he'd never grew up, too Because a part of me died with him.
when growing up I went through chemo. was 13, had a lot of friends also alongside me going through it and worse. the last time I saw them was going to summer camp "camp reach for the skies" when we came back the next year Dustin had passed. then the year after my friend drake died and his sister. I went to the blue ridge rock concert a couple days ago with my partner. suddenly this song played, never heard of them but I just started crying at the show and it allowed me to finally mourn them and open up to my partner about them. and my own fear if i ever came out of remission again. now I love this band and can't stop listening to their songs.
Everyone says "ghost" their saddest song. I disagree, u have depression like I do, but nothing will beat the pain of losing a loved one after so many years.
Bro that video gave me some vivid flashbacks of the love of my life having bad headaches to nose bleeds to going into seizures. Truly shattered my heart..
Out of all the sad relationship songs to have ever been written, which is 90% of all music, this is easily in the top 3 saddest I've ever heard. It's so... raw. Specific enough to separate it from all the vague generic "i miss yous" of the world, but relatable enough to make even me, who has been fortunate enough to not have suffered any meaningful death and loss, to really feel something from it. Don't take your time with someone for granted.
Same here. She event took me to see them live. I hadn't heard this song or seen this video until now though. She also had insane health issues and suffered from lots of seizures and a very weakened heart. I didn't know what I was getting into when I clicked on this song and that ending just shattered me.
That song hits me right in my feels. It reminds me of my first love who passed away when he was 16 and I was 17 not a day goes by that I don't think of him. I'm almost 40 now. A love that strong never really fades away. You just sorta go through the motions of life with them no longer in it. Thank you for this amazin' song and video. It's tragically beautiful. 🖤
We had so many plans and goals for our future. He was such a great dad to my son. He’s the only one I’ve ever loved. The future looked so bright. Then he had a heart attack at work. I miss him so fucking much.
I saw them open for one of my favorite bands in a small venue just after ghost was released. I’m so proud of how far they’ve come since then, and I’m glad I continued listening after that concert!!
I did...we were childhood friends... always had a thing for each other but never happened until 6 years ago. We were inseparable every since... she passed away 4 months ago and I'm lost without her
check them out they have so many great songs, video's already, Ghost and Heroin are streaming already this song Promise me is next viral, their album OK I"m Sick is amazing....I would suggest looking up Move Me most amazing song...The sing what we are all feeling, amazing talented young men...They have saved my life
This is the 2nd of your songs that have hit too close to home and made me cry. My husband is battling metastatic cancer and this is how I feel every day with him. The first was Ghost. Our son committed suicide last August. I can’t listen to it in public without making a spectacle of myself.
My 84 year old grandmother has only days left. After 70 years together, my papaw has been her sole caretaker since she was diagnosed with dementia. Every time I hear this song, I swear I feel every drop of grief my papaw has... with my entire soul. Thank you for making such a beautiful, relatable song. I feel every lyric with every fiber in my body 🤍
2019 I lost my love to COPD. I always thought we had more time. We saw them live at Higher Ground in South Burlington VT 3 months before Brenda passed away at 48yo. It was her 1st concert ever. Those song brings back so much for me and I didn't realize it's significance until now.
THIS IS A MASTERPIECE! And I don't call songs or videos masterpieces often, but this one truly is!!! You know those songs that hit you because they describe exactly what you feel? It was not the case with this song, but because it describes all that's in my head MORE than exactly. When I first heard it i was like, yep, boy you put all thoughts and fears i have 24/7 in a song. It was like my brainwaves became hearable. I'm so scared of getting older, losing everybody, life is so pointless, we all die... I love how clear the lyrics are, without any stupid metaphors. This song also sounds like straight out of 2006, which was a very good music year and reminds me on my childhood. Also, the refrains are different and not just looped. It tells a story. Then I watched the video and WOW - i was so blown away. It fits so perfect and is not too predictable. How he stays with her until they're both old, and the scenes in the end... I almost cried! So, this is simply perfect! Great Lyrics, great sound, great song. great video. Deep meaning. It's really not often that I am so enthusiastic about a musicvideo. I'm not a big Fan of Badflower but this song is maybe one of the best songs I've ever heard! Seriously, why is this not #1 in all charts?
It's 4 am and I'm here listening to one song after another! I believe I just found my one and only favorite band! I love you RUclips! I fell in love with Badflower!
I found this song a day before my best friend who I'd known since we were kids passed away in a horrible car accidents. This song has been a HUGE amount of comfort for me ever since day one. It will be 5 years this year in a couple days. My heart still breaks but I am so thankful for this band and song.
Ok, I about ran off the road on the way to work this morning viewing this video for the first time (on my hands free), bawling. I hope you realize how much this video touched me.. Thank you for sharing such intense, personal music 🎶
This song means so much to me. It is so perfect to explain the feelings I hold for my boyfriend. We both have gone through some really shitty relationships and finally found a the perfect imperfect person! This song fits from me to him because every thing in the song is true. And I am NOTHING like my father. I will never cheat. I will never treat any kids we may have the way he has treated me and my sister. I will never leave this guy for anything in the world. I have never felt so loved, so safe and protected, I have never felt so precious and treasured. All I knew from relationships were negatives including my father. I have never had that man to show me what love looks like, how I am supposed to be treated ya know? And while I don't think I thought I was supposed to be treated badly but I thought I was being loved...until I grew up a little more and even then I didn't truly know what love was like until I met my man. I have NEVER been 100% sure about someone or something in my life! I am a very high anxiety person and I overthink every little thing. But I don't overthink us. I have bipolar and I know for a fact that this shit is toxic because it's toxic to me! I am medicated but I still have awful days, weeks and sometimes months. But he understands and if he doesn't he does his very best to try and he never makes me feel bad about it. He takes me as I am. Pushes me to be better for myself. He is the only man I will ever love like this because my love for him is...there are no words to even scratch the surface of how much I love him. There are no words to best describe how deeply I feel. And if there is ever an after him? That's it. I may find someone nice maybe even similar. But they will never be My Joe. They will never get the love I have for him. There's just no way I would even let myself feel this way for someone else. I am forever his and he is forever mine. We will always do right by one another. We will be the ones that last. With the connection we have, keeping good communication and not hiding any true feelings...I don't see it. Ooof and when I think of a scenario like this, it hurts so much. I have felt hurt in many ways but that is something that would just stop my world from turning forever. I would have to go on for whatever family is left in my life and if I have pets, but it would be a constant struggle. I just hope that life lets us live long enough to get old and grey and still tear up at how the overwhelming feelings we have...at least I will tear up I am such a baby! But this is definitely one of our songs
This song is everything I’ve ever felt about my husband. You guys are talented beyond measure. Loved seeing you live in Michigan. Please, don’t ever quit what you’re doing!! 💜🖤
This song reminds me so much of my parents, who went through most of this life together, since my mom was 14 and my dad was 17. I lost dad I 2020, and mom in 2021. They couldn't live without each other, well my mom couldn't live long without my dad once he died, and she got a UTI and died of it. I miss them both so much. This song makes me cry, but I love it!
"Nature, far from a benign cycle of life, is instead an endless cycle of death. Demanding not only the suffering and lives of the guilty, but also the innocent. Let us strive for improvement." SearingTruth
Amazing! Totally reflects my relationship! We grew up together. Good friends we loved each other but took different paths but came back together and we have 2 beautiful girls! I cry when I hear this, I love this song. I was diagnosed with MS. Not missing each other yet ;) love this song!!!
The fact that he stayed there with her forever hit me the hardest those lyrics are amazing I enjoyed watching you guys in concert and hope I can see you again.
I love this video it's scarily accurate of how life works if you think about it also not ashamed to admit it brought a tear to my eye love the strong messages behind all the songs 💓
Wow. I didn’t think I was tall enough for that emotional rollercoaster...
I didn't sign up for this feels trip.
I thought I needed parents approval and wasn't prepared for the feels
😪 like, whoa, man.
And I thought ghost was bad
I definitely should've read the warning sign.
Side effect may include:
Thinking about your recent ex.
Missing your recent ex.

1. Lie down.
2. Try not to cry.
3. Cry a lot.
Who are you...why is this the most accurate comment I've ever seen
Same .-.
Yep!!! All steps followed...
More like:
1. Try not to cry
2. Cry
3. Cry more
4. Lie down
5. Cry again
As a male watching this for at least the 50th time. Couldn't agree more
The "Gave" at 3:56 is the most gut-wrenching, emotional word I've ever heard.
Huge MCR vibes from it.
it's a fry scream, it's pretty damn good
I KNOW! I keep playing that part over and over because it hits so hard, and it's so real
The flashback scene rolled in on top of that moment really packs a punch. I teared up the first time I watched this.
I know when I heard it I got chills
When this came out my partner was obsessed with it. He loves Badflower and was dying from a chronic lung disease the entire time I knew him. I knew I'd lose him young, but not this young.

I’m crying 😭❤️
I'm so sorry 😭😭😭😭
I'm crying as well
God bless u
im crying so hard rn im sorry to hear that man :(
This band will be huge in a few years. They have a lot of potential
Sebastian Pacheco they have already topped the alternative charts lol
Sebastian Pacheco I think they mean main stream
been here from the start x
@@blakeharvey6871 me too😉🥀🥀🥀🥀
I feel like they are already huge in my book. Going on tour with shinedown. Fuck yea
The way he screams with such emotion gives me chills tbh
He doesn't scream though, so...
Brandon Bury it’s a scream
@@Mrmeanygreeny as someone that screams, that's not a scream lol
That's and insult to his voice, a rat can run across the street and I can get cold chills
I heard no screams

I love this interpretation
Wow this actually made me tear up. Amazing breakdown
I love the concept of this song! Makes me wonder what his inspiration was while writing it.
Oh, that's a nice interpretation! I was thinking maybe she had a recurring illness of some sort and her being in the hospital when they're older reminds him of when she was in the hospital longer ago and so it's like a parallel of two hospital stays that both happened years apart. But I suppose in your version, they don't have to deal with the hospitalizations for longer.
This band have some really amazing lyrics and very deep stuff!
Dude I used to watch your prank videos when I was like 10 ong I haven't seen your name in years😂

I'm 14 years old and this is deep
This is probably the most interesting place that I've found a content creator that I watch regularly.
Yo wait flashback to when i was 13
I didn't expect it to be that good.
10/10
I cried
Raimon Ivan I expected its cuz badflower is amazing
Sameo
Not sure how long but we all have an expiration date should always make the best of the time we have
the acoustic made me cry 3x harder
at 63 yrs old i did too
anyone else suddenly realise there's gotta be a hella lot of onions nearby?
I know Right?
Yep that’s ALOT of onions 🤔
yeah hmmm
@@user-iw6tz2ez4j SO MANY ONIONS!!!!

That part when he says; "YOUR HEART GAVE OUT" with such passion😭
My heart's given out before we all know this shrug
Seeing the song come to life just made me cry even more😭😭
Thanks for making me cry 😭😭
Saamme
I totally want a love like that, but yea the ending is way worse in picture. In the song I imagined them growing old together, but not like that :(
Yeah, I was NOT prepared to see them actually old and near the end of their relationship together.
Samantha Alexis same here! 😢
Love this. Anyone else getting that 2000’s pop punk/alternative vibe? I needed this in my life.
Sounds like straight from 2006. Love it!
Go listen to "The Used". Him, and Bert from "The Used" are vocal twins.
Yeah there's something that sounds like mcr and other 2000's bands
I gotta do it. Mare Bear hair or bare?
Could you imagine being 19, then waking up in your 70-80's. Missing the funnest part of your life. Makes me want to quit my job and party.
Then fucking do it
Do it
The next time you see an elderly person, try and remember this video. They too were once young and vibrant and played and pretended to fly. Show some damn respect because one day you too will be there. Aged bodies die. Young hearts don't.
manic angel Well said.
Jokes on you, I’m finna die young
Cade Mosser facts im here for a good time nota long time
bbdbdh I was thinking more along the lines of 18, I’ll be 18 in 6 months
I agree that people deserve respect regaurdless of age, but we also need to remember we should respect people because they deserve it rather than simply because they're older than us..
I didn't have a signed permission slip for this feel trip.
I don't think any of us did
Feel Trip.........Best Comment EVAR!!!!
Very clever
I read it as field trip lol
hearing the lyrics, I knew the video was going to be emotional but I did NOT expect to ugly cry
This video hit so close to home for me. I'm a married, mother of 2 small kids and just recently was diagnosed with a heart condition. I'm terrified every moment that any second could be my last and I won't get to see my kids grow up.
No matter what create a lasting memory. That's what you should strive for. It doesn't have to be big. Just be the best you can and be happy you did your best. We'll all leave this world but it's how others remember you that counts more than anything else. Be a terrific mom. Show no fears. Show your strengths to the little ones. So that they know you were strong. But all will go well. You'll be a grandma in no time. Haha much love to you! Never give up.
Your lucky to have a family to love make the most of all the time you have they will be okay and appreciate the memories
U just need to fast
Join water and dry fast groups on fb
Pray for me after years when u remember this comment
Much love, I'm so sorry
Ay god bless and protect you and may mother mary wrap you in her shroud and protect you always.
Promise Me Lyrics:
We're getting old now
But I don't feel it
I say you're beautiful
And I still mean it
And I don't wanna know
What old age feels like
So promise me you won't
Give up on this life
And we'll be busy tryin'
While the rest of them are dyin'
Promise me we'll never grow up
I don't wanna let go
I wanna stay young
And even when the wrinkles show up
We'll be laughing, and
We can play forever
Don't make me face the truth
I think it's obvious
That we'll stay happy
'Cause I'm the happiest
When you smile at me
And we won't end the same
A broken family
I'll never walk away
Without you with me
And times are getting harder
But I'm nothing like my father
Promise me we'll never grow up
I don't wanna fall out
I wanna make love
And even when we can't, so what?
We're together and happy ever after
Don't make me face the truth
That I'm dying soon
We're dying too
And we're so much older
All I want is one more life with you
When did we get so old?
Why'd you get so sick?
And how could you die?
You promised me you'd never grow up
Now I have to let go
God, I miss you so much
And even when your heart gave out
I was thinkin' I
I won't say goodbye
You promised me you'd never grow up
But you fucking grew up
God, I miss you so much
And even when your heart gave out
I was thinkin' I'd
Love you 'til forever
And I can't face the truth
That I died with you
That you lied
Ty
Woah
Woah
Few bands can touch your soul and punch you in the gut at the same time. Badflower must be doing something right.
I think I have a problem. I'm addicted to Badflower
If that's a problem.
Same problem😂
It's not a problem
Same I think we all need to go to BFAA meetings
@@RJC2011 lol
I do too,
Or they have a problem with us having a problem being addicted to them

I wanna make love
And even when we can't, so what?
We're together, and
Happy ever after
Don't make me face the truth
That I'm dying soon
That we're dying
Don't say goodbye (When did we get so old, so old, so old?)
We're so much older...
All I want is one more life with you
When did we get so old?
Why'd you get so sick?
And how could you die?
You promised me you'd never grow up
Now I have to let go
God, I miss you so much
And even when your heart gave out
I was thinkin' how
I won't say goodbye
You promised me you'd never grow up
But you fucking grew up
God, I miss you so much
And even when your heart gave out
I was thinkin' I'd
Love you 'til forever
And I can't face the truth
That I died with you
That you lied (That you died...)
You died
Such a Deep, Real Love Song! To Be With The Girl You Met As a Young Child and To Grow up & Married , Together...FOREVER!!! 💖
Babs Ross thanks🤙🏼
Perfect lyrics! It hit me deep!
This is my favorite song, but i simply can't listen to it anywhere but my bed, just because i always cry when it plays. The emotion this song conveys are just top notch.
Yep currently making the mistake of watching the music video at work 🥺
This has to be one of the most under appreciated bands. Every song is always good.
I’m actually crying this is art I love badflower so much
This was awesome! I lost my husband last year when his heart gave out.....this is beautiful! Thank you!
So sorry for your loss, may his memory be eternal and may god bless you and your family.
Though a very unconventional song, I walked down the aisle to this song. This song meant so much to us when we were going through hard times. In fact, I can't listen to this song and not get emotional. Life is short and precious, so take advantage of each moment you have with your special someone. You never know how long you have with them.
Did you cut the last line out by chance?
I do know. It’s 6 months and 3 days.
This video clip is making me painfully aware that out time is short and I should stop wasting mine.
Are you happy? Does listening to music make you happy? Then you're not wasting your time.
By far my favorite from the album. The whole album is a masterpiece!! I myself have been hooked on Badflower since the moment i heard "ghost"
Same here. Fuckin good album. Feeling like a little fan-girl for the first time 😂😂😂
Same
My brother played Ghost for me and I've been hooked on them since.
Im really feeling that neon sign at the bar that says bar
Alex Wolf I’m glad they cleared that up for us
Alex Wolf that’s my spirit sign
Me: *sends this emotional song to my boyfriend*
My Boyfriend: "Oh my god, is he going to push her down the stairs" 😑😑😂😂
This made me giggle. 😂
My boyfriend just sent this to me and I'm sobbing because I'm dealing with a ton of health issues rn. And this made me literally laugh out loud for a second or two. 😂
😂 I'm crying and laughing now.
Obviously it's confirmed.
I was crying and read this lol i needed this.
Bloody hell I've never cried at a music video, but when I realised they were actually old and it showed the old guy sat in the chair wow that got me
Just saw them open for Shinedown in Syracuse, NY and have been 100% hooked since. And I'm usually a metal head. These guys are fucking talented.
they open for shinedown in DET it was good
@@rezenking8426 Good name for a Detroiter. Shinedown rocked the world into submission, right? I did become a fan of Badflower for sure. It was a great concert.
I was at that concert as well. Great concert, my sister and I have been hooked ever since.
I saw them open for Shinedown in Colorado, it was fantastic! I was kind of disappointed I hadnt heard them before. I wanted to sing along
Steve Dobbins yes!
*me telling myself I won’t cry*
Josh: YOU PROMISED ME YOU’D NEVER GROW UP NOW I HAVE TO LET GO
It goes exactly like this. Everytime.
And then also the part in the video where he touches her arm and she instantly remembers him 😭
I'm in awe of the music these guys write, and the videos they put out are amazing. I'm 52 years old and this is one of my favorite bands. I introduced this song to my 18 year old daughter who listens to what 18 year old girls listen to, and came home the other day, and she was in the shower blasting this song and singing it as loud as she could. I am proud or her.
Wait 18 year olds don’t listen to this? I’m 12 man they don’t know real music
I am going to be 43 in Feb and love 🥀 I am glad there are older people out there that appreciate their music as well!
"All I want is one more life with you." This is how I feel about my love. This is one of our songs. Amazing song. I love Badflower
The only thing I’ve ever turned on my notifications for
Me too!! Badflower is the ONLY thing I have my notifications on for 🥀🥀🥀🥀
Me Too 🤘🏼🖤🎶🥀
I can't wait to see badflower be super popular 10/10
There has never been a song that described love better then this....
this is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🤘
Remember, Guys we are all getting older! My Son just turned 26! We're only here for a *Short While*!
LUV U ***BADFLOWER***
🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜
This is so good but you muse hear “Live Not Survive” or “The Wave Acoustic” by SLT 🎸🤘🎹
I’ve never even heard of this band before now, but this song has me crying
Go check out their other songs too they are very good
DITTO !!!! lol.......
Me too
Make sure to give heroin a listen
I'm seeing them along with my favorite band this Summer... and I don't know who I am more excited to see. This band is so fucking awesome!!!!
Here before this song blows up 🤘
I heard this album at launch. All of their songs are worthy of listening but none have the passion this has. Close but no cigar
Loving all their stuff early lol
i hope they not like 1 hit band
@@kaimas1005 they at least have 2 songs (ghost and promise me). 3 if you count heroin. They have 3 songs my local radio plays from them. At least they aren't a one hit wonder.
Mariah Garcia hell yeah
Me screaming along to this song as I flashback to my husband dropping dead in front of me as his heart gave out. I can't let go. Get out of my head...
I'm so sorry that happened. Everything will get better just know that They aren't really gone. There are still with you. I promise
I'm sorry about your husband.
I too loss mine.
He passed unexpectedly on morning of his Birthday.
I found his body after he'd been gone 8+ hours.
My SOUL DIED With his.
So many things left unsaid and things we'll never get to do now.
Presents he won't see now
And a birthday cake he never got to light the candles on.
My World as I knew it ended.
I hope you have found peace with the passing of your spouse.
I'm still TRYING!!
🥀💔🌟💖✨🌹
I'm very sorry you had to see this mortifying experience. Hopefully within the 7 months ago you wrote this you are feeling a bit happier. I'm sure you was a good wife as he was husband.
I’m sorry for your loss I to lost my best friend and fiancé in May.
I’m so sorry. My younger brother passed away unexpectedly of a heart condition on June 4th. He left behind a loving wife and an adorable fur-daughter. We miss him so much. Please know that you are not alone.
almost too powerful, my wife overdosed and passed away 5/20/22 and this says everything that I couldn't say myself. Thank You Badflower
This song hits home so hard that I'm a mess, I didn't expect to cry today. 18 years of marriage and my husband died from pancreatic cancer. I still have problems moving on and trying to survive without him. He was my world and it just gets harder. Beautiful song btw, brought back lots of memories.
I was expecting a rocking tune and instead I got tears....
I love it
my husband sent this to me about a year ago saying it was our song...I cry every time I hear it and I will avoid it sometimes. it hits home very strong for us because he will lose me due to my heart literally giving out due to a heart defect...I'm not crying...it's allergies 💔
this is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🤘🎧🔥
Promise me you'll never stop making these amazing songs
Don't give up guys ....
You have a great future...
All the best👍
Thank you dude
Thank you
Wow thank you so much
Thank you, you too! 🥺🖤
If my Dad had survived cancer I imagine this is what him and my mom would be like every time I watch this. True love is rare.
I gotta say, i usually listen to heavier bands. Mostly metal and hard rock... but there`s something about these guys
that makes them one of my favorite bands. I usually dont even give a single f about song lyrics but their songs
are actually capable of making me cry every single time.
please keep up the amazing work, "ok im sick" is one of the best modern rock/alternative albums ever made.
this song is my favorite one off the album
same, it's strange how this band just touches me
This sounds like something I would’ve listened to when I was emo in middle school/ high school. Such a familiar unfamiliar thing.
Yessss same! This gave me some many throwback feelings to my emo years. They nailed that sound.
Reminds me of blue and yellow by the used but yet its different love this song
I’m 15 and I’m high school and this is my main band that I listen to, so I’m in that state rn😂
I have to say this song really gets to me, just in February I had to put my dog down due to kidney failure, he was only 7, he was my best friend and he still had a lot of years ahead, we was so young, he always knew when I was upset , he listens to me better than anyone else, he was always there to comfort me and I always played with him and I grew up with him, we got him at 4 months, he was my bets friend... "You promised me you'd never grow up
Now I have to let go
God, I miss you so much
And even when your heart gave out
I was thinkin' how
I won't say goodbye"
That lyric got to me and made me cry so hard..
Rest in peace joey😢😭💔
Here the same.
I heard the song on the radio.
I searched for it the whole day, to read the lyrics once again.
I lost my dog 8 weeks ago.
I wished that he'd never grew up, too
Because a part of me died with him.
And now I'm crying, I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm in your situation rn. I wish he never grew up, rest easy, Rocky...
the video for happier by marshmello is heavily on that kinda subject
I'm so sorry for your loss.
when growing up I went through chemo.
was 13, had a lot of friends also alongside me going through it and worse.
the last time I saw them was going to summer camp "camp reach for the skies"
when we came back the next year Dustin had passed.
then the year after my friend drake died and his sister.
I went to the blue ridge rock concert a couple days ago with my partner.
suddenly this song played, never heard of them but I just started crying at the show and it allowed me to finally mourn them and open up to my partner about them.
and my own fear if i ever came out of remission again.
now I love this band and can't stop listening to their songs.
this is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🤘🎧
Everyone says "ghost" their saddest song. I disagree, u have depression like I do, but nothing will beat the pain of losing a loved one after so many years.
this is their saddest for me
Totally agree! It's just as tough no matter how many years go by
You guys did an amazing job! I am so proud of Badflower!! Super emotional video 😭
what a sad story ;-;
edit: just finished it.. so wholesome
I was not ready for this emotional rollercoaster. Salty liquid is pouring out of my eyes, down my cheeks
Bro that video gave me some vivid flashbacks of the love of my life having bad headaches to nose bleeds to going into seizures. Truly shattered my heart..
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🎸
*So promise me you won't give up on this life* 💕
for all those who are thinking in suicide.... Someone loves you❤️
Liz Morales thanks I honestly needed that. Like you prob think I’m just exaggerating but I seriously needed to see that comment
@@BEASTLYCHIP565Gaming I don't think you were exaggerating, we don't do that when we are saying what we feel, I love u❤️ keep going ❤️
I send love to everyone here I know the pain. We are brothers and sisters fighting the good together.
@@frankmartinez6402 🙆❤️ a lot of love! xoxo!
:3 thanks guys I needed that
To everyone finding this band through this video:
Welcome, join the Babyflowers
We're all losers but in a cool way
a bit cringy but ok
lilacxblood thanks for the welcome
lilacxblood I’ve known them ever since Ghost and they haven’t failed to disappoint since then
I found this band through heroin..... The song heroin.... Not uhh you know what I mean
@Herb Tenderson we support all the gays 🏳️🌈
Out of all the sad relationship songs to have ever been written, which is 90% of all music, this is easily in the top 3 saddest I've ever heard. It's so... raw. Specific enough to separate it from all the vague generic "i miss yous" of the world, but relatable enough to make even me, who has been fortunate enough to not have suffered any meaningful death and loss, to really feel something from it. Don't take your time with someone for granted.
My ex introduced me to this band..❤️it’s bittersweet listening to them right now and I’m balling my eyes out but I know it’ll be alright
Same here. She event took me to see them live. I hadn't heard this song or seen this video until now though. She also had insane health issues and suffered from lots of seizures and a very weakened heart. I didn't know what I was getting into when I clicked on this song and that ending just shattered me.
That song hits me right in my feels. It reminds me of my first love who passed away when he was 16 and I was 17 not a day goes by that I don't think of him. I'm almost 40 now. A love that strong never really fades away. You just sorta go through the motions of life with them no longer in it. Thank you for this amazin' song and video. It's tragically beautiful. 🖤
And just when I was losing faith in new music...
Thank you Badflower, faith is now restored 👌🏼
Is it just me ? cuz it seems Badflower makes you really think and /or makes you cry ,,b/c the lyrics really hit home?
this is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🤘🎧🔥
We had so many plans and goals for our future. He was such a great dad to my son. He’s the only one I’ve ever loved. The future looked so bright. Then he had a heart attack at work. I miss him so fucking much.
I'm so sorry for your lost. I'm sure it's painful and I hope you're able to get past this.
This video is so emotional, deep, beautiful, real, sad... is a Masterpiece.
MARVELOUS ARTISTS
* releasing a new kind of tears *
If you like emotional, real, and sad you might like this one too: ruclips.net/video/RhhsYw2XVZI/видео.html
I saw them open for one of my favorite bands in a small venue just after ghost was released. I’m so proud of how far they’ve come since then, and I’m glad I continued listening after that concert!!
The amount of emotion the vocalist put in this song. omg
Life is short, fall in love with the one that wants to make love and memories with you forever. Love is the greatest adventure.
This.
I did...we were childhood friends... always had a thing for each other but never happened until 6 years ago. We were inseparable every since... she passed away 4 months ago and I'm lost without her
I'm so glad this band showed up on my reccomendations💙😍
This song+video touched my soul. I can't wait to see what else they create.
check them out they have so many great songs, video's already, Ghost and Heroin are streaming already this song Promise me is next viral, their album OK I"m Sick is amazing....I would suggest looking up Move Me most amazing song...The sing what we are all feeling, amazing talented young men...They have saved my life
I heard ghost first. Love both songs
This is the 2nd of your songs that have hit too close to home and made me cry. My husband is battling metastatic cancer and this is how I feel every day with him. The first was Ghost. Our son committed suicide last August. I can’t listen to it in public without making a spectacle of myself.
My 84 year old grandmother has only days left. After 70 years together, my papaw has been her sole caretaker since she was diagnosed with dementia. Every time I hear this song, I swear I feel every drop of grief my papaw has... with my entire soul. Thank you for making such a beautiful, relatable song. I feel every lyric with every fiber in my body 🤍
2019 I lost my love to COPD. I always thought we had more time.
We saw them live at Higher Ground in South Burlington VT 3 months before Brenda passed away at 48yo. It was her 1st concert ever.
Those song brings back so much for me and I didn't realize it's significance until now.
I don't even have notifications on... I just felt a tingling sensation and new that Badflower had posted a video. Earliest I've ever been to a video
Same...I started watching the video, as I was watching, the notification came.
i’ve never clicked on a notification faster than this
Same
Me too
same dude
saaaaame
**SaYs ElMo*
Congratulations Badflower, this is the first song that made me cry on the first listen
THIS IS A MASTERPIECE! And I don't call songs or videos masterpieces often, but this one truly is!!! You know those songs that hit you because they describe exactly what you feel? It was not the case with this song, but because it describes all that's in my head MORE than exactly. When I first heard it i was like, yep, boy you put all thoughts and fears i have 24/7 in a song. It was like my brainwaves became hearable. I'm so scared of getting older, losing everybody, life is so pointless, we all die... I love how clear the lyrics are, without any stupid metaphors. This song also sounds like straight out of 2006, which was a very good music year and reminds me on my childhood. Also, the refrains are different and not just looped. It tells a story. Then I watched the video and WOW - i was so blown away. It fits so perfect and is not too predictable. How he stays with her until they're both old, and the scenes in the end... I almost cried! So, this is simply perfect! Great Lyrics, great sound, great song. great video. Deep meaning. It's really not often that I am so enthusiastic about a musicvideo. I'm not a big Fan of Badflower but this song is maybe one of the best songs I've ever heard! Seriously, why is this not #1 in all charts?
Because it had heart
Saw this live in a tiny venue in Wisconsin! Sounds like this live! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I kinda like the original version better, cause he does that powerful scream
Definitely about to spend $70 for a one day ticket to a festival just to see them. I seriously can’t stop listening!
Dalton Biddle same! It was definitely worth it
What festival???
Dalton Biddle same!
They are awesome live. Saw them with Shinedown in indi. Worth it.
Faythe Lopez in October (or November) they are gonna be in cali for aftershock
It's 4 am and I'm here listening to one song after another! I believe I just found my one and only favorite band! I love you RUclips! I fell in love with Badflower!
I found this song a day before my best friend who I'd known since we were kids passed away in a horrible car accidents. This song has been a HUGE amount of comfort for me ever since day one. It will be 5 years this year in a couple days. My heart still breaks but I am so thankful for this band and song.
45 years old and I'm blasting bad flowers this music touches all ages
This is honestly my favorite Badflower song and I'm in love with how this video turned out. Thanks for making me cry lol
Ok, I about ran off the road on the way to work this morning viewing this video for the first time (on my hands free), bawling. I hope you realize how much this video touched me.. Thank you for sharing such intense, personal music 🎶
This song means so much to me. It is so perfect to explain the feelings I hold for my boyfriend. We both have gone through some really shitty relationships and finally found a the perfect imperfect person! This song fits from me to him because every thing in the song is true. And I am NOTHING like my father. I will never cheat. I will never treat any kids we may have the way he has treated me and my sister. I will never leave this guy for anything in the world. I have never felt so loved, so safe and protected, I have never felt so precious and treasured. All I knew from relationships were negatives including my father. I have never had that man to show me what love looks like, how I am supposed to be treated ya know? And while I don't think I thought I was supposed to be treated badly but I thought I was being loved...until I grew up a little more and even then I didn't truly know what love was like until I met my man. I have NEVER been 100% sure about someone or something in my life! I am a very high anxiety person and I overthink every little thing. But I don't overthink us. I have bipolar and I know for a fact that this shit is toxic because it's toxic to me! I am medicated but I still have awful days, weeks and sometimes months. But he understands and if he doesn't he does his very best to try and he never makes me feel bad about it. He takes me as I am. Pushes me to be better for myself. He is the only man I will ever love like this because my love for him is...there are no words to even scratch the surface of how much I love him. There are no words to best describe how deeply I feel. And if there is ever an after him? That's it. I may find someone nice maybe even similar. But they will never be My Joe. They will never get the love I have for him. There's just no way I would even let myself feel this way for someone else. I am forever his and he is forever mine. We will always do right by one another. We will be the ones that last. With the connection we have, keeping good communication and not hiding any true feelings...I don't see it. Ooof and when I think of a scenario like this, it hurts so much. I have felt hurt in many ways but that is something that would just stop my world from turning forever. I would have to go on for whatever family is left in my life and if I have pets, but it would be a constant struggle. I just hope that life lets us live long enough to get old and grey and still tear up at how the overwhelming feelings we have...at least I will tear up I am such a baby! But this is definitely one of our songs
This is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🎸
i discovered this band yesterday but now i could say I'm a BIG fan, i mean I'm crying rn
This song is everything I’ve ever felt about my husband. You guys are talented beyond measure. Loved seeing you live in Michigan. Please, don’t ever quit what you’re doing!! 💜🖤
This song reminds me so much of my parents, who went through most of this life together, since my mom was 14 and my dad was 17. I lost dad I 2020, and mom in 2021. They couldn't live without each other, well my mom couldn't live long without my dad once he died, and she got a UTI and died of it. I miss them both so much. This song makes me cry, but I love it!
God the emotion put behind 3:57 in that scream is what did it for me.
this is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🤘
This video deserves a Grammy
*2 seconds in*
Me: its art i love it

Amazing! Totally reflects my relationship! We grew up together. Good friends we loved each other but took different paths but came back together and we have 2 beautiful girls! I cry when I hear this, I love this song. I was diagnosed with MS. Not missing each other yet ;) love this song!!!
This song means so much to me. I cry everytime i hear it. Thank you for creating this masterpiece.
I'm right there with you. I lost the love of my life, and this song just reminds me of how much I want her back.
Beginning: Wait, this isn't *my* Badflower.
Middle: Oh yep, there's my Badflower.
End: Wait, what?
The fact that he stayed there with her forever hit me the hardest those lyrics are amazing I enjoyed watching you guys in concert and hope I can see you again.
Really wasn't anticipating crying on my way to work today
This is so good but you must hear “Winding Road” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🔥
I love this video it's scarily accurate of how life works if you think about it also not ashamed to admit it brought a tear to my eye love the strong messages behind all the songs 💓
