Real Friends - Waiting Room (Official Music Video)

[@realfriendsband]

If you have ever lost a loved one, this song is for you. You are not alone in your grief. ❤

[@Sushii1245]

Thank you this is the song I have been waiting for ❤🥹

[@normandvictor16]

you and tssf got us griefing like a mf tysm

[@ComicBookPoser]

I lost my mom on Christmas eve-eve 2023, with her in and out of the hospital for the past two years. This song does an amazing job vocalizing my thought process throughout her demise, and where my struggles have been everyday since then. This is beautiful, thank you for the song.

[@codyb6849]

Thanks guys I have lost folks an family to thanks for this song and video guys love Cody

[@emobuddha]

You dropped this when I needed it the most 😭😭😭

[@nexion0617]

"I was too weak to watch your last breath" hits right in the chest. Lost my Dad in 2013, my Grandmother in 2021, and my Mom in 2022. At this point in my life, it feels like everything was taken from me and It's so hard to cope with the loss of the most important people in my life. I just feel numb and I forgot what it feels like to be truly "Happy". Whoever you are, and if you're going through it right now, I hope you find peace.

[@natalievillegas7361]

Well if this helps...this just popped up in my KZbin feed at 430am, and I just found a new band to listen too! How I havnt heard of you before I'm not sure, but I absolutly love it!

[@maxrichardson6495]

In the last twelve years, I’ve lost my mom, stepdad and brother. This song speaks volumes and I just miss them everyday.

[@ashleyschmitt1850]

Currently sobbing. I lost my dad to prostate cancer a few years back and I've been missing him so hard. Thank you for ones again speaking to my core ❤ I love you real friends 🧡

[@Khritter]

I'm sorry for your loss, sending you love and hugs

[@znys9972]

I’d recommend The Story So Far new album! He lost his dad and the whole album is about that! It’s called I want to disappear

[@znys9972]

I love real friends and the story so far ❤ sorry for your loss!!

[@emeraldbarker-l5x]

My dad died recently. This song is on repeat I had my first cigar with him Your lyrics feel like they are written for my experience. Guess 30 is hard for everyone. I've been listening to you since I was 22 Thank you for every album and sso. I wouldn't be the same without you all

[@skateordie280]

The vocal performance on this is next level

[@danielleambeau9164]

To the DJ who saved my life. The moment you ended your life was the moment mine entered a hell unlike anything I have ever known. I loved you in life and I'll love you every minute til mine is done. Our time together was short and I took you for granted.... I'll never forgive myself for that. I love you .. I will always love you.

[@CynIcalWinters]

Saw a clip of this song being played live on social media and wanted to hear the whole song. Never thought I'd miss the smell of stale cigarettes and Downy fabric softener, but hear we are 12 years later and it's still not any easier. I wish you'd visit me in my dreams again. Your granddaughter will be 16 this week. You left us way too soon. I love you mom 💜

[@Beanwiththedip]

I needed this today thank y’all! It’s been almost 8 years since I lost my mom and the beginning of this really hit me. R.I.P Momma

[@realfriendsband]

Sending you all the love today. Thanks for listening.

[@KOLFANS]

Lost my mom a few months ago..... She was too young to leave us. See you soon, Mom!

[@RaviolliRoy]

I just lost my Dad six days ago due to complication (disease). I miss him everyday. And this song is a reminder of his memories. Thanks a lot!

[@alexbischof9338]

Guys you did it! That’s finally the perfect mixing between you and Cody… what a song I’m speechless

[@onebreath210]

When my grandma was still with us, she used to say in regards to my grandfather passing, time doesn't heal wounds, you miss the person more and more as time goes on, you just learn how to live with it.

[@Skux720]

Almost one year since I lost my friend. This song is just what I need. Thank you Real Friends. Miss you Cass.

[@opalinskyband]

Damn… What a song ❤

[@realfriendsband]

❤❤ thank you, truly.

[@dvckduckgoose]

Been wrapped up in my grief lately, it's comforting knowing i can always come home to RF to know i'm not alone. Needed this today. It''s been a great 9 years with your music in my life

[@deborahbowermaster6046]

With the exception of not staying until his last breath, this hits home. It's hard to watch someone you love, with every fiber of your being, die. It's hard to keep going and face every day without them. In 2months, it will be 3 years since my sweet husband died. I love you honey and miss you so much 💔

[@chantedurand9433]

I lost my Mom on the 19th of July and I've been listening to this song ever since. These are my feelings exactly. Thank you for this outlet🖤

[@bigtimmydun3019]

Drum fill at 2:38 is siccckkkkk

[@priyanshuchndr1]

Lyrics, riffs, vocals, drums everything is superb

[@beezybeez4207]

This is so good but you must hear “The Wave” or “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🤘🎶🐺

[@snowandcoal]

What I hear is generic cookie cutter.

[@Derek-gj8wz]

​@@snowandcoalWhat I see is a bitch typing.

[@DonySetiawan]

I’m really grateful for Cody being in Real Friends. Everything is perfect right now for you guys! Please don’t ever think to break up or something like that. Love from Indonesia. 🇮🇩

[@tommyrosadi323]

Lagu terbaik yang pernah saya dengar dari RF 🇲🇨

[@NicholasHill-ts8bc]

Lost my grandmother 4 year's ago finally a song that I relate to after watching her take her last breath ❤ ,"I thought time heals every wound till I lost you"

[@mofzpo]

Awesome vocals. This band was definitely upgraded. Keep up!

[@realfriendsband]

Thanks dude ❤❤

[@Shadylee420]

R.i.p to my mom my dad my grandma and my uncle! I still miss you everyday. That void I'm my life will never be filled again without you! 😢

[@pyrochotic420]

Probably my favorite song right now, can't wait for the new album❤

[@ClintAntipas]

It's 2am in my country and i've been repeating this song now for almost 2 hrs. Every word pierced. Love and support from the Philippines.

[@theresamartinez5490]

When this was performed at Sad summer I dreaded hearing it because my grandma was not doing well and I couldn’t imagine losing her. Well, yesterday she passed. Now this is all I feel like hearing because someone else can relate. Crying has become my new friend lately..

[@JMoneyAngler]

Real friends continuing on the up. Getting older, losing track at times- to find out a day before the Asbury Park show they had a new singer- I was bummed, but blown away at their performance. Cody absolutely killed it. Never give up- keep shredding!

[@mikeashcraft4383]

Amazing songwriting and Cody absolutely crushed the vocals. You guys should be super proud of this. This feels like such a special time for the band and I am so stoked for the full album release. Real Friends for life!

[@Nnoize]

This song is incredibly raw and powerful. Your honesty about such a painful experience is truly inspiring. Sending strength and support to you all.

[@xJessasaurusRex]

Already one of my favorite RF songs. I absolutely can not wait to scream sing this.

[@realfriendsband]

❤️ thank you. It’s a very very special song to us and glad we can share it with you now

[@richfrommitch]

From the first chord I knew exactly what the vocals would sound like.

[@JoshSarwono]

maybe you didn't notice but the film director showcased the instrument/ the player perfectly according to the parts where they stand out in the song.

[@beanie_4977]

I’m not going to lie, I was very pro Dan era fan of real friends. But this is the first post Dan real friends song I genuinely enjoyed. They sound genuine and raw like they did in the beginning years of the band. I really appreciate the emotion expressed in this song. Keep it going 🖤

[@da_kevin]

exact same boat, the energy here is refreshing

[@jsh020]

yeah personally im kind of just ok with the ep they did post dan but I think everything from this album has sounded fantastic

[@ZephyrusBlue]

Any thoughts on the album now that it’s here? I think it’s fantastic 🤘🏻

[@viniciusfigueiredo5969]

You guys stayed true to your sound over the time and that's admirable! Its easy to understand why your fanbase love you so much! Thank you for keeping this project up, and for another amazing song! Hope to see Real Friends here in Brazil one day!

[@artificiallyflavord5588]

Sounds nothing like when Dan was vocalist. Just sounds like a lot of other bands now.

[@sjm7306]

Saw this live at sad summer fest, incredible song. Made me cry in the crowd

[@danidelgado7550]

Thank you for another heart tugging song. Lost my grandma as a teen and had to hold in the agony, pain, and grief of her not being here for so long. I started therapy this year. And with the help of you guy's music, I'm able to take in and reflect those feelings in a healthy way. ✨Real Friends being the realest✨

[@hxllxwbxdy]

This is so different yet so similar to older Real Friends, I love how you can make cool stuff like that! I lost my grandma earlier this year and absolutely feel the song

[@rileydickerson542]

An absolute banger per usual. RF forever and ever, enough said.

[@realfriendsband]

Real Friends FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[@sbh_24]

Great song, instant classic.

[@Bumblebee.turbo.charger]

This is an anthem!!!!

[@loneryouth]

oh man that hurts 💔😢 genuinely love this one

[@Sirenhunter5]

It’s been many years since I’ve listened to these guys. I like it. That being said It’s been a couple of months since my oldest dog has past and seeing the area where her and her daughter used to live in, get torn down. It’s sad because of the memories that is embed in those walls. Was hard seeing her take her last breath but I’m glad she’s in the ether now. One day I’ll get to see them, including my one eyed dog, again.

[@legrasdugeek362]

Thanks to the KZbin algorithm, great discovery that I listen to on a loop, the chorus is really addictive ! Good luck to the group I'll be happy to follow 😊

[@ThreeDaysGrace97]

This is honestly your best song by far.

[@rogergoza3180]

This new album is shaping up to be some of their best work to date

[@davidstacy2151]

You guys have me shedding tears at 6 in the morning before I go into work. Thank you ❤

[@SeannyMak]

It’s been 7 months and I think about her every single day. I miss you Mom. Thank you for this, guys ❤

[@cheemsdog7071]

All I can say is holy moly, this song is wonderful, Cody's vocals went hard and the instrumentals we're perfect, god i'm so excited for this album

[@LeeshaRJ]

Every new single just gets better and better! Love the sad & heavy songs - you guys are killing it!

[@realfriendsband]

The new album is 100% sad heavy songs so I’m glad to hear that’s what you’re in to

[@mangwil2500]

I can feel some Valencia vibes and I like it. Great song RF!

[@Ravensikkness]

This is amazing! Thank you for making this song. Over the years I've lost many friends to the icy hands of death and I just want to see them all again. But this song is gonna help a lot whenever I think about it. It's hard to lose the people you gave a damn about. 💔🖤

[@mon7647]

I dont think i can even explain how much i adore this band. Your music heals the soul. ❤

this is not just about loss or grief. its about bereavement

[@dos33]

cant wait for the acoustic ver.

[@ryanhedrick4424]

This one hurts. I lost my dad when I was 18 to aggressive prostate cancer. I couldn’t stay in the room in the final moments either. Seeing someone who was so strong their whole life being so weak and vulnerable was too much for me. Not a day goes by that I don’t think of him and wish that I could tell him about my day. Thank you RF.

[@DarrenCampbellmusic]

Fantastic!!

[@taefantasy5697]

I haven’t lost anyone in the literal way this song is meant to, but I did lose someone I gave all my heart and time to, and I just feel my life keeps reproducing the same scenario with more people around me. This song touched me differently, but I can feel in it the inner rage and incomprehension overall. I just discovered you with this song, and I won’t hesitate a minute to check all your work out and know more about you. You all seem so talented. You’ve gained a fan. Keep up the great work.

[@MinamiHaland]

Can't wait for the new album! "There's nothing worse than too late" is masterpiece, I'm sure that new things will be like that too❤

[@beckyterra3493]

This hits so hard and reminds me of the last time I saw my poppy in the hospital. He died a few days later and I wasn't there bc I couldn't bare to see him die. I lived with him and spent almost every day with my him and my nanny. And even though I did all that, my biggest regret is not going back to be with him. Our last words to each other were: I'll see you again. It broke me. It's been nine years and no one moment had been easy. Thank you guys for this

[@mactanzi]

[@MasonzeroDigitalWorks]

I haven't lost anyone in a way I could directly relate to in the lyrics but damn "And I had to leave before you left, Cause I was too weak to watch your last breath" hit so hard... Because if I were in that situation, I would also be too weak for that.
