[@ScotMoves]

Been listening to these guys for 30 years. The sound is unmistakable and I'm here for it.

[@RetroSoulGirl]

I'm about to be 25 soon, and I first discovered Collective Soul when I was 19. At the time, they were just about the coolest band in the world to me and I often dreamed about what it would be like to meet Ed Roland, because he's the coolest guy in the world. Well, 17 concerts and a load of meet and greets later, I'm so extremely proud to say that Collective Soul are my friends, and I know everybody in the music video, including the director, who was responsible for helping me meet Ed for the first time. Collective Soul is such a personable band and the scene where Ed hugs his mom is exactly the way he hugs his fans. He's so honest and pure and we're never going to find another band like Collective Soul in this world. Though I am sad that I discovered them in 2019, it's better late then never. Most people sleep on this band, but I never will.

[@raylikesdogs]

I have liked them since I was five (I'm not kidding)

[@janetsmith2682]

I first heard them in 1982...they are still in my top 5 all time favorites. I will be 69 in October this year.

[@me-ge7im]

@RetroSoulGirl : good for you ! :) This was a great lil story you told. Made me smile. I can totally relate. There are lots of people (young and older) who like yourself, discover great musicians or great bands years later. It happens to me every so often. Now that I'm on KZbin more often than the other social websites. I will stumble upon a band that I click with instantly, thinking they are new. I go to make a comment on the video I watched, and notice that some of the comments from fans were made 1 to 7 yrs ago? Leaves me dumb founded and thinking to myself, " what?" " Now way?!" "How have I not heard of these guys before now?!?" But.... that's the beauty of Music and all of the talent that comes with it. It's never too late to fall in love with a band or specific Musician. I personally think that's what makes bands even better when the younger generation is still discovering them and loving them the same way the older generation has. Music frees the soul. I couldn't live without it. Congrats on meeting Ed. I'm sure he got just as excited to meet another new fan of his. Musicians who truely love what they do, never get tired of meeting there fans. Especially younger fans who remind them they are still making great music after all these years. ;)

[@janiceboling]

@@janetsmith2682 same here. I'll be 69 in July.

[@RB-oc7ti]

@@janetsmith2682u mean ‘92?… They weren’t a gleam in Ed’s eye in 82.

Collective Soul doesn’t have one weak album. My favorite band of the last 30 years. ✊🍷🎩🎩🎩

[@godgunzndrumz]

Agreed!!!! Everything they touch is GOLD!!!

[@MichaelMyers-pj2uk]

Collective Soul is making a comeback and I’m hella excited for it.

[@JulioCesarAriasGomez]

They’ve never left.

[@BrianSterowski]

Never left. It’s actually you that’s making the comeback then 😂

[@toddsabinrodneysabo_22]

Collective Soul is the best and most underrated band of our time.

[@rekkof]

They never went away!

[@docgates6169]

Making a stay ment They never left !

[@AndresManosalvas]

One of the best rock bands ever, but extremely underrated. Their sound is unique. A new classic.

[@thomasbusy3632]

Not underrated. They were a powerhouse back in the day. Every fan say their old prefered rock bands are considered underrated once they fade away and make songs that sound the same over and over and over.

[@chasebailey3721]

They were one of the biggest rock bands in the 90s, their first album went triple platinum, and they have a large enough following that they go on tour every year. How is that extremely underrated? I am so tired of people throwing that term around.

[@Jolly-Green-Steve]

This riff sounds like an inverted version of Where The River Flows.

[@cresenciocaparas3632]

Sounds like precious declaration to me

Love these guys & have for 30 years, have seen them in concert five times and they never disappoint! One of the most underrated bands of all time.

[@kisstine16]

Over 3 decades they’ve been one of my favorite bands and they are still pounding them out 👊🏻

[@fluffylusgimpus]

These guys have never lost their touch. Still sounds great after all these years.

[@bassismath9118]

Pure collective soul sound....wow still going strong...

[@gilneumann]

Biased, given my brother and I went to high school with most of the founding members :) but still completely dig their sound. It's also a nice throwback to see Ed driving the classic Trans Am. In the 80s, our high school parking lot (which, at the time, was just across the street from where Ed's dad preached... and just down the road from Will's dad's music studio) there were almost always a dozen or so of those and their Z-28 t-top counterparts. Good times. Thanks for the memories and the continued great tunes.

[@LRM5195]

I hate seeing people get older but I can’t deny Ed still brings a ton of energy to their live shows. Can’t wait to see them again in a couple weeks! Also how tf did he keeps his hair

[@mattboyles3590]

They haven’t had a good quality video like this in years. Love it.

[@gibonno7610]

This new double album is one of their best albums to date. Difficult to pick a favorite. Mother’s Love Bluer Than So Blue Let It Flow Not The Same Keep It On Track Be the One Who Loves Words Away Letter from E No Man’s Land I Know You, You Know Me Over and Out

Love it haven't heard any for so long but you better believe I'm going to bring all the songs back to my line ups, so many great memories.

[@gutojunior2576]

I felt completely represented in this video. My relationship with my mother is exactly like that, she guided me through the world of good rock n roll, then she was proud watching me take my first steps in music and today we share this with a lot of love. Thank you Collective Soul, always bringing good emotions.

[@chrismahfouz7709]

Love it! I’m a long time fan! ❤ saw these guys in New Orleans several years ago. I’m so proud that they don’t cover there gray! I don’t either!

I came here to say that! 💗

Very touching video. Glad he made his family part of it. FWIW, you can tell Lindsey is a Roland: he looks like both Ed and Dean did in their younger years.

Always there but this is the CS I grew up on!!! Love all their tunes! 27 year later! 10 live shows, 1 time pulled up on the stage! Keep kicking ass! Love you dudes!

Loved this band since they first started:) Glad to hear they are still putting out excellent tunes!

[@dickeymantle]

This one has that magic Collective Soul thing. I was just thinking the other day about how rare it is for a band that's been around 20-30 years to make new hits up there with the hits from their prime. I think these boys just did it. Love it.

[@rueljoyner2127]

I love these guys!

[@johncarey9145]

I'm so glad to see the release of your new album. I've been a fan since you released your self-titled album in March of 1995.

Several people also made that comment on the lyric video released a few weeks ago. Those hearing it are not alone.

[@dmcslow]

So, correct me if I am wrong about the video concept. Lynette is looking through the photos in her family album and the scenes with Lindsey are supposed to be flashbacks that she is remembering of her and Ed when he was young and listening to records and 8 track tapes. So, Lindsey is playing the role of the younger version of his father in the video. Very cool! So glad to see both of them in the video too. Great job and great concept too! I agree with the others that it does sound a little like Where The River Flows too. This made me have flashbacks too. 👍😉🤓

[@mindcontrol67]

Wow a video about a flashback, never saw that before..................

Me encantó el video. Qué lindo ver uno en el que se exponen los verdaderos valores familiares. Hoy día el 99 por ciento de los videos musicales carecen de mensajes profundos. Son puro libertinaje. Aplaudo a Collective Soul por seguir con su excelente música y transmitiendo lo que en realidad importa más en la vida ❤.

[@squeekywheel9591]

I saw them at a casino in Edmonton. They were awesome. They still sound great.

[@jodyjonas5263]

Holy shit,it's like I'm transported back to 1995;some of the best times and music EVER! And his voice sounds just as good,if not better,where so many singers from back then should just "pack up and give up" on new music.
