Running for Home - Matthew Good Band

[@Strap1205]

If there ever was a brilliant singer / songwriter / bandleader, then it´s Matthew Good! No matter if solo or with the band - simply brilliant! What an album! What a song!

[@Rainmanthereal]

The tears are streaming down my face right now cause this song means a lot to me, hence, like a millions of us, I'm struggling with anxiety issues since my mid-twenties, I just want to say that you/we/I/us are not alone and never will. There's always a brighter side or a way to learn something out of the worst moment we have to deal with every given day. Please seek or ask for help during the rainny days, cause it worth's. LIFE WORTH IT. Shall we bless everyone single one of you!

[@InspirationWorks67]

I am so grateful for KZbin. Even though I am not far from Canada, being a Minnesotan, I never until tonight heard of Matthew Good and that has to be punishable by law somewhere, musically speaking ! lol ... But seriously, it is only because I was researching/cross-referencing artists who struggle with bipolar that I am introduced to this MASSIVE talent named Matthew Good and now, I am forever blessed. Not only by his music, but his persona. I watched some interviews as well. Thank you, Canada.

[@MishkaMeshel]

Deb Alexander he is amazing! Been a fan for 20 years now. Met him. Saw him in concert 5 times (needs to be more).

[@ellenlawlor7450]

I've been listening to Matt hood since my brother introduced me around when I was 6 years old to "apparitions"..I've been hooked ever since

[@ellenlawlor7450]

Oops matt good

[@phoebegarrett3055]

I play this song everytime I'm angry or sad, it's too heartwarming

[@keithcarroll3250]

Matthew Good is the greatest Canadian artist of all time. I know that is a pretty bold statement, but I think you can't deny his talent is as good as it gets. Matt Good Forever!!!

[@dreadlockdude85park73]

Absolutely brother! I got a tatoo of him on my neck, he's gotten me through life!

[@stryfe2000turbo]

I can't believe Matt played this at the show tonight here in Winnipeg. This song meant so much to a much younger me. I never expected I'd hear it played live, especially all these years later

[@caterina39]

Reminds me of my mom 😭 I miss her so much

[@ColleenTempleart]

This song is making me emotional! Really beautiful!

[@aidansr2791]

What a perfect ending to the album, the song title and the music match up perfectly. Like stumbling home in the pouring rain in the early morning hours after a sleepless night.

[@syrriusdenile5225]

Love the analogy.

[@chrishinkel5897]

Like me right now. 😎

[@masterferguson8703]

people need to hear this

[@justine7132188]

I love this song. Simply AMAZING

[@chrishinkel5897]

The most depressing songs are the best ones. Human emotion in lyrical motion. Brilliant bliss. I just hope that we're all in a happier place, rather than not. Oo too all.

[@taylornepoose4918]

Matthew good band Running for Home I love the piano solo and I have the Matthew good band beautiful Midnight cd I got it last year for Christmas

[@dlm425]

Matt’s the shit, remember pounding this recorded in the late 90s everyday for months driving to work, so underrated, love this song

[@backfru]

How could you pound the album in the late 90's when it was released in 1999? thats like saying I partied all night, starting at 11:30pm So, you pounded it for a few months of 1 year?

[@JaimzeGames]

beautiful song.. one of matt's deepest song pre HM

[@terryberry48]

Best album Matthew Good ever made, the whole album is amazing, I had to get use to Jenni's song when I first bought the cd, but love it now!

[@williamcrawford5626]

When I was in my late teens, my friend harbored her runaway friend. She left because her step-father was abusing her and her mother was ignoring it. She said she had to leave or she'd end up killing him. Jenni's Song song came out right around that same time, and it was like an anthem for us.

[@nicolejones7903]

THE SHOW HIGHER GROUND BROUGHT ME HERE..

[@MegaMikeylikes]

Canadian artist not promoted outside Canada but some college stations did have this genre music, 23 years of masterpieces after another 50 songs and should be in the rock in roll hall of fame.

[@virginiaholder1999]

I miss that show

[@scorpionx1503]

Nicole Jones me too. but then it put this song on my playlist, so that's why i came here again. :)

[@backfru]

this one of the most depressing songs ive ever heard.. and i love it

[@elainegmorrison]

I know! Why can't I stop playing it?!!!

[@vivianst.claire7193]

It is so beautiful💖

[@emilysael]

It's depressing to you? As someone who had been suicidal since grade 6....just listening to this album at the library because I'm almost as old as the album.......i listened to the album and I was going to jump off the buildings of the most trafficked through way....its fucked someone or something stopped me and I am still here(D and R in London Ontario were I was just like yep

[@emilysael]

I'm done i hope my death is a political statement or art that people have to think about...provocative I guess was the word I was looking for....aaaaaand its easily 2 decades after the fact and im still here....i don't know why...its something I take one day at a time

[@gregvalcourt]

I buried my pet to this song in 1999.

[@LiamDTurner]

Love ThIs Song🤘

[@bionikball75]

Amazing song

[@IsabelleBJV]

What an amazing song!!!!

[@mrbobawesome]

Stunning piece of music.

[@さぎ猫うさぎ]

Thank you, Dove

[@iamstable4591]

I've been a fan of mgb for years The meds changed the whole thing With writing

[@jenniferseguin8349]

Perfect.

[@daleyoung5106]

every day my Conair heart turns off, love

[@toynazi]

You are aware that those words are wrong right? Lmao

[@CandyCane]

Carnie!

[@ClemmyHunter]

matt good cans sure write

[@mikewhite666]

Not bold at all. The guy is a musical genius and leaves his heart and pain in every song. Lyrically the guy is just way ahead of his time and he's an amazing musician too.. Most music is hollow only has to be catchy. Matt makes the music he want's to make to convey his own opinions.. How many artists or bands can even say that??

[@cassienorman6275]

This song was originally called Sunup on the First release of Beautiful Midnight in Canada. I was in one of my most manic episodes that lasted for a couple months when I bought this album and thank god for that because I was able to see that there are people that I can identify with that I'm not so alone

[@Stephanie_Ann_]

when we were wired, the world was like a secret

[@joelsewlal9480]

It finally clicked in, the lyric "I'm sure, you're right" always stood out, anyone else think he's refrencing INXS there? I know it's only 4 words lol

[@joymechell277]

Can't listen to this without thinking about shelbys breakdown

[@maryb6819]

this is what led me to this video. Can we bring Higher Ground back now?

[@alexjessop5330]

It’s hard to do a Rock ballad like this but MGB kills it

[@Oscarbrash]

dude me damn too!!!

[@zekeisafreak]

They beam things into your head the ghosts of your pleasure and contempt when we were liars things were seamless when we were wired the world was like a secret i close my eyes now and i scream i turn the light on and there's nothing left redeeming i saw your face before it changed the gun it makes you look nicer in a bad way so low for how high? well it's too late tonight and i'm sure you're right so low for how high

[@jdawgdabeast]

I slept on this track. Just finding this shit right now

[@zekeisafreak]

and after this there's just the circus and every morning you carnie heart stops workin it gets tight in there sometimes looking for the defects, talking like it's a reflex i close my mouth now and i scream i open the door and there's nothing left redeeming i saw your face before the rough you should wait around awhile cause your body's bound to turn up so low for how high? well it's too late tonight and i'm sure you're right so low for how high

[@FeralDragon]

Shelby :)

[@scorpionx1503]

Feral Dragon higher ground :)

[@mikewhite666]

Agreed I was just gonna say that..

[@Run_With_The_Kittens]

is this not ....6 A.M sun up running for home?

[@Cormduffy]

Yep, the end of a long night. Thought it was beautiful.

[@sl4tetide]

I miss our secret lies.

[@dgw9051]

Yup, as a born and raised Canadian. You are correct. Rush? lmao fuck that over rated shit. Matt is pure art.

[@syrriusdenile5225]

It's funny how this is a song that was never meant to be. I saw Matt Good during an acoustic tour and he talked about how the record company wanted/needed one more song for the album and Matt was like "screw that", but he complied and wrote this at first as a shot at the music industry and the record label. This is the result... Perfect matt Good...

[@Cormduffy]

I thought that was Anti Pop on Audio of Being? Running for Home to me seems the perfect end to the quasi concept album that is Beautiful Midnight so I'd be really surprised if this song was written on a whim.

[@gillessheppard9399]

Who played what instruments

[@Stephanie_Ann_]

best

[@Duocek]

so long, for how high

[@TheRazzaManazza]

*low

[@zacharyholmes3776]

Out into the public I once again go with my sledge hammer and the sense of entitlement... Sarah Weaver was right, the sound of breaking glass can be quite harm on e o u.s. :) don't forget to vote for black Santa :D

[@Jujululuclo]

qui aurait les paroles en français svp

[@zekeisafreak]

in*

[@kashizking]

do you want that alphabetical or chronological? Pearl Jam , Radiohead, Sam Roberts, Bon Iver, just off the top of my head.

[@cf8502]

u/IsSecretlyABird from reddit brought me here, and I'll never be thankful enough.

[@kashizking]
