My Dad passed away this morning I'm sitting in a cafe with my fiance who will never be able to meet him now. This song is playing over the radio. I was, not as active in my Father's life, we lived on the other side of the country for most of my life. Far from him, and unable to regularly visit. He didn't have many friends and relied on me and my sisters for company via calls. I wish I'd taken more of those calls. I wish that I had picked up the phone last Saturday. Oh God how I wish. I miss you Dad, even more now because your voice is gone, your laugh, your booming presence. You were so goofy Dad. So good. I will always miss you. I love you Dad

This song makes me miss someone I never even had

[@ashleymeyer1366]

This song makes me miss a time in my life I'll never have again.

[@TheDot872]

That's weird...me too

[@MoMo-206]

Like if you’re randomly thought about this song 10 yrs later

[@nathanwhite4715]

dont tell me what 2 do! and i did like also lol

[@neolee3477]

This is me tonight.

[@jc-diaz487]

Yessss!!!! Back in the days 😭

[@daymiendaydream]

I'm 2 months late but how did you know?! Are you a fortune teller? I thought about the Fray before this song came to mind, nice breakk from my usual edm :)

[@katinkaaa2951]

the fact that this is over 10 years ago is just insane to me

[@leecoffey3738]

Just saw Augustana live last weekend. It was awesome! Got to hear this live, along with Ash and Embers and others, and an unreleased one! (Get ready, it’s fantastic). Got to meet him afterwards and he’s so cool, such a genuinely nice and cool guy. He definitely puts himself into the songs

[@joelrasmussen1010]

Yeah I just caught him in Vegas with Owl City and what a great set he did. I only knew this song but he blew me away with the other tracks he played! ❤

[@cuppa2023]

I got the opportunity to see him in Houston solo with Owl City I'm definitely a fan

[@ElishaRealLife]

I saw him at Owi city concert at Grand rapids. I told him that his music was good he said thanks We Also shook hands he was very nice now I like his bands music

[@DualFrequency]

Can you tell me what songs did he sing? I’m gonna see him in Cincinnati

[@hermitsplayground9182]

I slow danced to this song with my prom date who eventually became my first girlfriend. We lost contact for 12 years since then. As the fates have decided, we eventually found each other and are back together again. ❤

[@richardkidwell4134]

Right on !

[@cloudridermrbliss7085]

Hmm..😨😨😨 Really?? Fishyy

[@Onedollarbeer]

Jamel Gallenero that’s great, man. Hope things go great for both of you

[@Sean.Duggan__]

Get in ladddd

[@AngeL_Fallen.]

Wow thats romantic!!

[@kmbmmangel]

I’m in Alabama. 30 years old and the sole income for my mother and sister since my father died 6 years ago. This song always struck a chord with me but more so now because there are days when I want to just pack up and leave to pursue my dream of acting in LA, but my conscience and heart would never let me watch them struggle. I will make it out there one day. So until then it’s baby steps here and slowly work towards getting to LA.

[@christianbeasley665]

You don't need to be in LA to be an actor! Acting is still something that can be done even if you live in rural areas. You don't need to move to pursue your deams!

[@papateeks6405]

Who’s here cause you actually found this when it came out young as shit and actually enjoyed it instead of hearing it on a tv show.

[@stevenmattero7900]

Yeah 17 people! Sounds about right

[@Memorh19]

I know! That's me here. Great, great song that brings a lot of good memories.

[@papateeks6405]

Steven Mattero true

[@papateeks6405]

Sean Muldoon don’t get mad sir

[@Memorh19]

@@papateeks6405 hahaha, I know.

[@AdelaRamos-hc2wi]

This song just popped up while i was listening to my favorite songs here... and wow, so beautiful. Its been a while since I liked a song so much since its first 10 secs ❤❤

[@caponekingpinking9917]

I don't care what year or how old A classic will always be a classic and beloved

[@mondaychild101]

This is the song you play when you heart is completley shattered 💔

[@abhyudaysharma4484]

Glad to see im not the only one who keeps coming back to this

[@neverhomepnw]

Im born n raised in California but its time to go. Seattle is too expensive but Portland is grimmy and just right. You played this song cause you know good music. Stay up and be happy.

[@mayssabraham317]

Just randomly remembered this song this morning with no clue where it came from, and spent 10 minutes with ChatGPT to track it down. Couldn't be happier I did!

[@andrewparker4037]

First time hearing this song, and it just hits where it shouldn’t. Like I’ve known it all my life

[@thorntailband]

yes it has that good old 2000 song feel to it

[@codytylek7836]

Listen to better than Ezra, third eye blind non hits, and other great bands

[@sarthaksingh2981]

They are the most underrated artist of all time!

[@johnsnow9456]

Damn ! As a 90's kid , i grew up on a song like this. Train , Snow patrol , Lifehouse , U2 , Coldplay , Hoobstak , Five for fighting , Keane...I want to go back. LIfe was tough , but music like this made life livable. Even Hip-hop and R&B were very decent back then...now...ughh

[@Checkersss]

Omg yes

[@taylornoelle1375]

yes.

[@moonshine5198]

+John Snow That band list tho

[@SpectreInk]

+John Snow Lifehouse and Switchfoot. God I miss those days.

[@Raithed]

+John Snow Fuck yeah dude.

[@dapper.degenerate5701]

I'm going to Boston on Friday, and this song is all I keep singing to myself lol

[@cecilyamor3322]

i wish more people continued to make songs like this one, just genuine, with words you can hear and connect with and give you true emotion

[@ThatMishil]

This is always one of my Favorite song. So underated. I feel so lucky to be one of the few people who knows this masterpiece.

[@jaylasmith7317]

Watched them open last night for 1D...They sound sooooo much better live! I think Im in love with the lead singer

[@LizCurran]

Oh good :)

[@issiechadwick4760]

+Jayla Smith im going to be watching them before one direction too soon and im glad you enjoyed it !

[@karenlm9062]

+Jayla Smith Oh, I'm so jealous (in a happy way). I would love to see them live concert. I agree. Never one to toss love around or be a crazy groupie, but for them I could make an exception. :) >3

[@mr_repz5523]

I'm so sad....this was such a great song when I was younger....I pray it never gets forgotten in time ....

[@MaskedHeroCraig]

I like when the song gets quiet and then comes back with "Boston! Where no one knows my name…"

[@Cayden_Bruh]

This is such a underrated song! Just like other old songs that got popular years later, I hope this song goes very viral in this year or in the future too

[@eaterofthings]

My very first crush sang this song years ago at summer camp during a talent show. I pretended not to like it, but it secretly meant a lot to me. It recently popped up again in my memory so now I'm here reading all the comments. I don't have nearly as much history with this song as some of the people here do, but it always makes me wistful cause it reminds me of something I could never have. My crush didn't like me back, but despite that, I liked her for about 8 years. I haven't talked to her in a long time, but I hope she's doing well. I learned a lot from that time of my life. This song reminds me that you don't always get what you want, and it's really for the best sometimes. Anyway, happy July, everyone! Much love from Texas.

[@Casedilla73]

Well this wholesome and also sad at the same time.

[@doubleeadg3d]

Thanks for sharing your heart. I hope you find someone who sees and values you. Don't be afraid to let your next crush know how you feel. You got this!

[@doctathrow6665]

This song reminds me of a time I don’t at all remember, but I remember the feeling well. I honestly don’t ever cry but a randomass tear fell down my face. Something sad something that was once beautiful, I wonder what happened.

[@roundtablerobot]

To me, this song represents the memories and the feelings of growing up as a teenager in the mid-2000s. Even if it were just for a day, I'd want to go back to 2005 :/

[@aiden2655]

If I had a dollar for everytime I said I wish I could go back...

[@Pyro_OW]

When I was young I grew up listening to this songs

[@steffletcher]

i suppose there are times that we all want to run away from the present moment of life. i have contemplated moving to boston from california twice. of course from a broken heart, from disappointment or something -- maybe that sunrise would be inspiring. maybe no one knowing me would be interesting. not really sure. but i'm very sure that we all walk our individual story alone...... thanks Augustana.... very cool song that helps the heart.

[@paigemaquiling8098]

Exactly! I couldn't agree more
