His music saved my life. No one's ever going to be better than him in my opinion. Shaun's my favorite vocalist and lyricist for sure.

[@drownmywilltofly]

I told him he saved my life once and he laughed 😕

[@Fendera1]

You really should check out "Travis Meeks" from "Days of the New"

[@katieblankenship688]

Me too

[@xAustishx]

@@drownmywilltofly probably cuz he doesnt want to be looked at like a God or somebody's savior. He writes music, he Hope's people like it, but once you learn a lot about the dude, you'll find he is very humble now. He doesnt want to be praised with something as big as saving someones life. Him chuckling was his way of saying "Really? How? I'm just a dude with a guitar" in a way lol

[@jebzbatomalaque9420]

What about Corey Taylor he is talented to.

[@TheMetalhead678]

You can hear the pain in his voice... Like he's got a tense feeling in his throat from trying not to cry. This song means a lot to him. RIP to his brother.

[@lisakeck2644]

Am I the only one who thinks God blessed us with this amazing guy rite here. Shaun Morgan thank you for all your music and all that you do.

[@minnesotadryerventguys]

This. remove the lights, people, sounds, wish was you and just the guitar. I felt the emotion slowed in time & hear the real emotion in this version. almost cried from it. loss is not easy, never will be. We cope a walk on. your helping us cope and continue in our time of wanting to give up. It took heart and soul to write this song in a loss state. Thank you for sharing.

[@damoncrossan3827]

shaun is amazing as both a human being and a singer

[@jeffreymiller5150]

I lost my son Tristan Nathianial Miller 11/12/17 to suicide and it is unfathomable to describe the pain that follows. My son was an incredible human; super talented musician, as a drummer; guitarist, & songwriter. But most importantly; he was KIND and LOVING. He hid his pain from everyone....everyone. There were no warnings...none. I knew about this song before this happened to my son...it’s very powerful. Thank you For writing this Shaun. I; sir; understand your pain.

[@ivovelchev183]

You are strong my dude and i apreciate that a lot ... thank you sir :)

[@Mitch_100]

Hope you can find peace in the storm

[@mikejackson8150]

One of the best musicians With a voice that gives hope And inspiration Through his music Shaun Morgan and Seether Will always have a positive impact Within every album They produce

[@FathomMane]

Im glad Shaun never took his own life but its sad to lose a loved one i lost a cousin to suicide no thanks to his depression pill steeling wife and his ex wife who kept rubbing his daughter in his face i hope karma hits those two bitches and i hope it hits hard and i hope it ruins their lives as it ruined my cousins RIP

[@beverlybowling6718]

A truly gifted artist. My heart hurts for him losing his brother that way. I pray that Shaun knows that he has been given this life for a very special purpose. He has touched so many with his music. God Bless and keep you, Shaun Morgan.

[@bthayer7797]

Shaun is in such a beautiful place with his voice. Definitely one of the best vocalist of his time.

[@kasiew3772]

Thank you just doesn’t seem enough. I lost both my mom and best friend to suicide. This song is so beautiful and true. Thank you so very much for helping all of us who will forever deal with that pain and agony. This song helps give me strength. I’m forever grateful for you being able to share your pain and story, turn it into such a beautiful and powerful way to help others!

[@haydinterrell8482]

He deserves that Reward. Such a good man. Raising awareness for Suicide. Good man! 💜

[@rebeccarodgers3649]

This guy is a gem

[@zerocool3394]

I struggled and to this day still struggle. A couple years ago I almost ended my life. A couple times actually. Each attempt was unsuccessful. Dealing with PTSD numbing my own reality. Losing everything I started to think about things. I wanted change I wanted my family back I stopped using drugs and I started believing in change. I knew If I continued numbed myself thing wouldn't improve. So I dug down Deep Asked God to help me. And so far he has. Im sober today. Still in trouble but im clean. Once im out of trouble I plan to take a vacation

[@kiraengo7541]

Revelation 3:12 12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

[@FaeUtero]

Thanks for the music and thanks for being raw and uncensored with it.

[@SC-ko9nk]

I just noticed he switched the lyric slightly. The original is: "48 ways to say I'm feeling helpless" He changed it to "48 ways he said he was feeling helpless" .. That hurts. :(

[@seethergirl15]

i'll love him more than anyone could know. his music changed me since age 7. hopefully I can meet him one day and not pass out xx

[@michaelwilde545]

I'm sure that Shaun already knows this - but I just want to reaffirm that this song has saved lives. Not many people can save a life, let alone with art, and he's saved so many. Sharing his pain has lightened the burden of other's and I pray it has lightened his as well.

[@TheDeltaCharlie]

Shaun is the GOAT.

[@Sinister00777]

He’s such an amazingly unique person. Love him so much.

[@erikleirmo9147]

Amazing truly gifted voice glad he survived his dark period and rose above it.

[@megsullivan6645]

glad he seems to be on the mend from drugs and alcohol and AMY LEE.. New cd is awesome.. keep em coming

[@TiffanyGreene0]

Definitely ! He looked amazing in concert 2017.♡

[@skinmomz88]

After losing my sweet little sister to suicide this song has helped get me through the rough times and has helped me carry on ^j^ ^j^ ^j^ R*I*P* Patty Brewer

[@Seether-jt6mo]

Another great song Shaun wrote for his brother is pass slowly

[@shaunaredmond1623]

Seether1742 Pass Slowly is one of my favorites.Shaun Morgan is absolutely amazingly beautiful and his lyrics have helped me through a lot. 🤘♥♥♥

[@trinapaschall-overturf1229]

i know the pain in the lyrics as a sibling who looses on to suicide it really is sometimes just in the bones... he is so talented

[@shaggysidbacon6144]

its an honor to hear his music

[@loriburrola6152]

I love him!! I love Seether!! ❤😍❤😍❤😍❤😍❤

[@morgan4681]

The acoustic of this I CAN'T 💕😭💔

[@shikarifox4337]

I like how it sounds like he's playing bass at the same time. Such a nice guy

[@santonino7741]

May God Bless You Shaun We all know your story and your pain ❤

[@Laststopny2741]

Just started listening to Seether and am blown away by Shaun's song writing and humanity. I had no idea he lost a brother to suicide-- so heartbreaking. But shining a light on mental illness and suicide will hopefully help others to face their own struggles and find hope.

[@kendrabrown6347]

Truly touching....i cry every time i hear this. However....there is hope. Reach out. Love and be loved

[@Economivision]

This song has helped so many hearts. Thank you for turning your pain into art and your art into celebration.

[@rockymoney7742]

He is the voice i hear in my head.

[@scotthartley5548]

I was not a Seether fan and honestly didn't know who Shaun Morgan was, but now....wow....what a heartfelt, powerful vocal. I am now a fan.

[@amd1273]

I hated seether for years but i always liked this song. Just recently started looking into them more, not going to lie they are pretty dope

[@fedecamusso]

i love this guy. such a great singer..!

[@faithbyrge484]

I will second that comment about saving someone's life because this person and I'm going to call him out Sean Morgan is one of the most ingenious Lyricist I know of out there I so relate to a lot of this songs he writes or that Seether writes it is so so relative and when I listen to this particular song it just makes me think very very positively about that fact that I will rise above no matter what is bothering me or I feel I'll come up out of it because once you go down that rabbit hole it's hard to get out so whoever said that the music that he wrote or still writes saves lives yes it does and that song today still relates everything

[@crmsn83]

That was a seriously good speech

[@edwarddunn9640]

Shaun Morgan is an iconic front man. He's right up there if not above Kurt Cobain and Eddie Vedder. He belongs on a poster with them 2.

[@morganclark2712]

Thank you for everything you do. I really enjoy your artistic music. Seether is awesome! Please keep making music. No matter what happens in your life, Mr. Morgan you have a gift of song and music. Dont let it go to waste. Keep going along no matter the obstacle. Thank you for your time.

[@danimetalhead9934]

I love him for everything he is. Without his music I'd be lost!

[@mrsmith1056]

my idol.

[@woww4444]

One of the few bands that has aged with me since high school. And, in my college years, I bought the album that this track came from. I've known about his mental issues for a long time, but didn't know his brother jumped out of a window until their sessions at Guitar Center. I've also never seen him in a suit. I bought Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces in 2008, so, it's been 15 years, but my condolences.

[@kirstymoss9810]

I'm still lost, miss my brother, took his life in 2019. The void still grows.

[@jeffreytimmons5582]

I had no idea! Thank you Shaun for all your doing. Working the ER, we see our share of forgotten people who struggle with this daily! Thank you again!

[@joshvela8510]

I love this song & i love you all who feel like there's no other way. There are 48 ways to say that you feel helpless but three words to lift you up & they're I LOVE YOU!.

[@mckaletdean1]

hes such a amazing guitar player and song writer

[@mrshleeful]

Making South Africa proud boet !

[@sharonfleming810]

I'm behind closed doors and drawn curtains right now, pray for me.

[@amyscott5967]

Your comment is concerning. Are you ok?

[@aeliacapitolina6293]

Hello there.. are you Ok?

[@Hell0er]

I've read many stories how this man saved many lives. I guess that's what you can call a heroe. Greetings from Perú

[@jimwind7589]

Nothing better than making something good out pf something bad. Good therapy for him.

[@CM-010]

beautifully spoken sir! as well as a beautiful song. one of my all time favorites! thank you for shring it with the world!

Goosebumps, he is still saving my soul! ♥♥♥

[@tarheelpaper733]

Congratulations !!!

[@sofiamastrangelo6457]

So beautiful 😍🤩♥️

[@BluDemonOzzy]

And does he ever deserve it too. If I ever meet him, I just want to shake his hand and tell him how much his music has influenced my tastes in music. Rock on, Shaun!

[@priscillaalmendarez8292]

Youre so awesome

[@erikleirmo9147]

Always listen to this version when I feel shitty thanks Shaun you’re an amazing human being with extremely perfect voice for creating your art

[@devilman4872]

In death all members of project mayhem has a name... His name is Robert Paulson.

[@randombotdude2083]

More like kurt cobain returned, but yeah

[@neighborgirl5841]

Your song is beautiful and I'm sure you have helped many that love your music as I do.

[@johnluke7304]

NeighborGirl Bradshaw you have no idea how much he helped me with this song. I've wanted to end my own life, but listened to this song and decided that, rising above it would be better.

[@Chris.Mendoza]

Seether needs to win Grammys

[@shannonsteiner8423]

They removed the Rock and Roll category. How stupid was that decision.

[@Chris.Mendoza]

@@shannonsteiner8423 Honestly as I grown up from the time I made this comment it’s better that way. Grammy’s support trash and meat ride every trend. Their trophies are meaningless.

[@Kahannda1011]

@@Chris.Mendoza Estamos de acuerdo, ahora solo veo que los reguetoneros se llevan los premios. (Los premios Grammy son una distinción otorgada por la Academia Nacional de Artes y Ciencias de la Grabación de Estados Unidos para dar reconocimiento a un logro especialmente destacado en la industria musical.) Por lo que veo en la realidad NO premian verdaderos talentos, mucho menos la letra, el mensaje de la buena música. Esos premios Grammy solo están a la "moda" de un público acéfalo. 😒👎

You gotta love this guy !

All the people walking around while he's performing such a great song distracted me a little

[@kathleens5533]

My sister Heather took her life a year ago on July 17. It was the worst day of my life. My family called me and told me. No one ever tells you it's going to be so horrible. I still can't sleep a full night. I wake up all the time. And I never sleep at 2:30. The last time we texted each other. I have so much love for S.M. Thank you.

[@ashdravencrow6328]

I would listen this mAn sings all dAy. This dude has an extraordinary voice. NirvAna has ReunitEd hAving Joan Jet sa vocalist, with due respect to Joan but personAlly it was an insult to Kurt because it did not give justice to NirvAna’s songs. Shaun would have been fit to do the job since in numerous times he covered Kurt’s sOngs amazingly!

[@srijan1993]

So much pain in the expression.

[@billypiggins7734]

All these people walking around the whole time. Can’t give the man 4 minutes of respect?
