Listening in 2024. The 90s will never die. If it ever does, it'll come back to life louder everytime.

Same experience, 1997, yet with "Swallowed" instead of this song... I had no idea what happened. But never forgot that very first time I saw the video clip and heard the song. Pretty overwhelming.

[@maxxxmodelz4061]

I almost forgot how many great songs Bush had. They really were one of the top bands of the 90's by far. Great melodic tunes and outstanding library of hits.

[@Madceptor]

I really think that "Sixteen Stone" is a masterpiece.

I remember the first time I heard this song on the radio when I was a kid. It was playing on 99x while I was being driven along the interstate through Downtown Atlanta. Watching the lit up buildings go by at high speed when that bass line kicks in was just bliss.

[@mikalmargetich7690]

You said it brother!

[@metallicstorm2370]

Im 15, this song reminds me of my used to be best friend that has started to hang out with the wrong crowd, and is slipping down a long slope that is taking his life away from where it should be. Drugs, alcohol, vaping, all that stuff that can tear your life apart as a 15 year old. This just makes me think about all the fun we had and all the time we spent together and these “walls that lie between us” that have slowly separated us. I don’t think he knows that what he has done has affected so many people, and me especially. Everyone that sees this just remember life is full of pain and there is always a way out 🖤

[@josetoro4405]

what a mature guy you are… keep it up my friend. big hug at distance

[@Dukeflyhawker]

I had the exact same experience at the exact same age, during the height of grunge music as the backdrop. It really hurts, but just be there for the guy, help if he lets you, and try to understand him rather than judge him, as he may be struggling with some really deep rooted personal/family traumas that you haven't experienced. And try not to be angry at him, although at times it can be really hard. In the meantime, build other friendships and form new bonds. My friend eventually came out of it, and is doing great, but it took about 15 years until we could occasionally hang out again like old times. Sometimes I'm still sad for the crucial adolescent years our friendship lost, but I hope you can put my advice and others' to better use than I was able to, cause I never got any advice like this back then, so I was left to try and figure it out as I go. Be strong and best of luck

[@lapalabradedios777]

Definitely pray for him. I will do the same :) I have a stepsister who became addicted to Heroin and it was ruining her life. I prayed for her to my Lord Jesus Christ and she got out of that downward spiral of perdition, she's doing a whole lot better today.

[@ratbones620]

I’m 14 and I know so many people who have started going down that path. None of them are really my friends though. But I keep trying everyday to make sure me and my friends don’t go down that road. If there is anything grunge has taught me, it’s that doing drugs can really F up your life.

[@abjames3098]

This album was waaaaay ahead of it's time, and I mean way. It opens w/ a banger in Warm Machine & in my opinion just gets better. 40 miles from the Sun could of been a single, so underrated, and something like Disease of the Dancing Cats could of been on the Sixteen Stone album & u wouldnt of even known it was from Bush's third album., yet Chemicals couldnt have been. But overall, even w/ Bush's experimentation, they really didn't strive too far from what made them successful.

[@CynicalScorpio]

The Artisan Spacetravel was my favorite track! I think the first 2/3rds of the album is amazing, it just has a few filler-sounding tracks towards the end of the record. Still one of my favorite Bush albums.
