Lyrics:
I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away
I didn't know that it was so cold
And you needed someone to show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out that
When the time comes I'd take you away
If you want to I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cares
I'm sinking slowly So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone
If you want to I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cares
All you wanted was somebody who cares
If you need me you know I'll be there
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
If you want to I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cares
Oh oh
Oh oh yeah
If you want to I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cares
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

[@sweetpeaj1952]

Yep

[@TheSocratesofAthens]

Heart.

[@kagenotatsumaki]

It's the realness of them. When it's a break up song, you can feel the bitterness in the song. If it's like a song calling people out for something, like Complicated by Avril Lavigne, you can feel how upset she is and how much she wants to get through to the person that they don't have to conform to others. And if it's a song like this, Fly by Hillary Duff, Drive by Incubus or The Middle by Jimmy Eat World, it's a positive message to people to believe in yourself and don't let others or self doubt hold you back. I don't hear a lot of new songs that feel real or have good, positive messages like that anymore, and part of the problem imo is that pretty much every Pop song now is produced, back in the 90's and 2000's, especially alt music, they were bands actually coming up with the music, now most pop singers have teams of people (I think some Beyonce song had 30 people writing it... X_X) writing the songs and producing the music for the sole purpose of making money.

[@betico-cule3337]

[@GodEmperor_]

The reason why early 2000s music hit so hard is because its geniune. Back then artists would write their hearts out and perform at small cafe and bars to their loyal fanbase. Record labels would find them there and want to sell their music.

[@mattparke4370]

Also because of superior melody creation. Artists today cannot create melodies like this anymore. I notice late 90s and early 2000s all have the same melodic texture wheter that is in movies, shows, or video games.

[@BenSolo777]

"So lonely inside, so busy out there" Man, that hits right to the core.

All You Wanted was released when I was in seventh grade. That was a horrible year for me - bullying, bad grades, and just feeling like I didn't belong. This song helped get me through that year. The chorus especially resonates with me: "If you want to, I can save you/I can take you away from here/So lonely inside, so busy out there/And all you wanted was somebody who cares." Michelle, that is all I wanted, and thank you for helping me deal with being a lonely 13-year-old boy who felt nobody cared about him.

The music from this era just hits different. It’s this amazingly beautiful blend of joy, peace, and bittersweet acceptance. I don’t know if that makes sense but it’s the only words I can think of to describe how it makes me feel.

[@manneianevski]

Music also really impacts people, and the way they feel. Look at the current generation now : they are so lost... all music they have is dumb, shallow, oversexualized, and it shows in the way they interract with others. I'm glad that I was born in 83 to have known this music era. It helped me a lot in my emotional developpment and that yes, it's ok to feel sad or melancholic sometimes, doesn't make you "boring" or "uninteresting". On the contrary, it gives you depth.

This song hits me on a truly deep, personal, and spiritual level. My father died April 24 of this year 2023. He was a disabled Navy vet both mentally and physically disabled with a list of medical and mental issues "bipolar and manic depression" among other things, that he had to take a fist full of meds for. It was a Sunday night and I was sitting in his room with him sitting on his bed. I was trying to spend time with him before going too pick my mother up from work. It was always in the back of my mind to try and spend as much time with him as I could not knowing how much time he had left especially after one of his brothers had past away a while prior. Well my mother and I didn't get home until about 11P.M. upon getting inside I went to his room to check on him I quietly opened his door with him snoring. So my mom and I went ahead and went to bed. Next morning I got up to get my dad up for his morning meds too mind him laying on his bed dead, "possibly" from either a seizure or cardiac arrest or combination of the two. I suspect that based on the fact he had just been in the hospital recently prior due to dangerously low sodium levels. Basically I was the last one with him and I was the one who walked in and found him. Now with this song, it hits me deep because when I was in middle school my father and I were riding around out in the country and were parked out in a field. My father had spotted something in the sky. I looked and I saw a large shinning cross shinning through the clouds, and too pile onto it we had the radio going in our viechel and "THIS SONG" just happened to be playing. If you want to I can save you. I myself tried observing the phenomenon and saw what appeared to be a human shaped figure in the center of the cross shape. We thought it was the way the light was shining through the clouds but that it was some kind of reach out from the Lord. P.S. there was an alleged incident with the Roman emperor Constantine who witnessed seeing a cross in the sky with his army before achieving a major military victory and afterwards converted to Christianity and made it the religion of the Roman empire. So I find that pretty intense what my father and I witnessed, and I rest in comfort knowing the time came and he was taken away by the father, maybe what Michelle Branch could be referring to in her song "when the time comes I'll take you away" and also " please can you tell me so I can finally see where you go when your gone." also if you WANT to I can save you. I can take you away from here. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

@@vampirehunter533 That's very unusual indeed. My mother saw the same thing when my father was hospitalized. He now doesn't have that long to live.

I haven't heard this song in ages, but it started playing randomly at work today, and I did a little happy dance. My happiness quickly turned into gut busting laughter when my boss--an African-American man in his late 40's--came into my office singing this word for word. I gave him a look, and he said "What?

[@Chubzdoomer]

+Mark Speza Yeah, I think the overall quality of music nosedived right around the mid-2000s.

[@Talentstone]

+Mark Speza That's because back then music was made by adults for adults to appreciate and children to look up to, aspire to. Nowadays, music is dumbed down and made for preteens who value image over talent. It's always what happens when they let talent-less children get involved with the entertainment industry.

I'm 40 year old and this song came out when I was 19, this means Michelle was 18 years old at that time. So if a 15 year old watches this now they must think the same I used to think about artist from 1978: "man this guys are old, look at those bell bottoms". But now I'm that old guy reflecting back, but when I look at it it seems so new still. This also because back than media got old real fast due to their non digital formats (e.g. cassettes, vinyl, video tapes, posters, etc). So when a young person looks at a video it does not really look old, or does it? Well it does not because it has been preserved or even enhanced by technology. This is fascinating to me to think about. I think that is probably worth just as much as a social experiment than as the marketing giant it is today.
