My wife passed away on 6/10/23. This was always our favorite song you did. She had an amazing version on acoustic she'd play, when she could, it was very hard for her too. She had a very hard and tragic upbringing and this song just hits all those feelings. Thank you for this song. Thank you for those memories. We were lucky to see Slipknot for the first time, for both of us, the last time they played here in Seattle at Climit Pledge Arena. We knew you wouldn't play this song but you did and we swore you played it just for us. It was like no one else was there, just us 3. You're amazing Corey, if you ever see this, Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. This song has brought so many good memories and now I just cry when i try to listen to it. It's mostly happy tears. Much love from Seattle WA

[@alexoborne5419]

Why didn’t they even pop

[@SR1Records]

I think it's because this intro is slightly different that the official album/single version. I can play the guitar (a bit) but i don't know the name of the first chord played here, or the name of the first chord played on the official version, but they are definitely not the same chord. This one is higher in pitch than the original. If it was the original chord that was played, they would have known instantly. Well, the die hard fans would have, anyway. I could name any Slipknot song for 1 piece of music before .5 The Grey Chapter. After Paul died and Joey was fired Slipknot were never the same for me. I'm looking forward to their new album, but i miss Paul and Joey so much! Joey is the person who made be obsessed with Slipknot. I was learning to play the drums and a friend gave me a Slipknot tape (yes, a cassette tape! lol). It was 1999 so the tape was their self titled album Slipknot. I was just blown away! And been hooked ever since! I met my GF through Joey and my 2nd daughter's middle name is Jo, names after Joey.

Exactly. I think it's the modern "Tears In Heaven" and the only real difference is that the emotional baggage comes from different places in this song, whereas we all know why the other is sad.

Stay with us. I've had my own battles with anxiety and depression. I'm glad to see you are seeking help. Just keep fighting. When you are carrying that weight, it takes so much strength just to get up. You are stronger than you know. Just have to let the weight go.

“I had him lay a scratch track down in the studio. Then I went in late at night, without telling him, and laid down some drums… When he heard it the next day, he started crying. It's Corey's masterpiece." - Joey Jordison. Rest In Power.

[@gypsy9415]

This is a Very Touching, Beautiful, Painful Song. Seeing the pain in Corey's face and eyes hit me hard. I felt that pain once. I swore never again. My husband and I now have been together 11years. It was hard to see him leave the first time in 1988. We have known each other 36 years.

[@MisterK-YT]

@@gypsy9415 are you a gypsy? Also, I’m sorry to hear that but happy for you that it worked out. So you’re with the same guy? He left you in ‘88 and u swore never again and then got back together?

[@MisterK-YT]

Yep. I got into Slipknot about 2 decades ago when I was a kid in junior high. As I got older my musical tastes changed and morphed (and sometimes disappeared entirely)... but there are those few songs that come out every few years... in loss, darkness, tragedy, and sometimes in healing. They sit in that “🔴 PLAY IN CASE OF EMERGENCY” playlist in my Spotify account. Like a group of friends I hope to never need ever again, but know they’ll be there when I inevitably do... waiting to teach me things or make me realize something I’d never learned before. This song is up there.
