This dudes voice is so good. It's weird. There's a lot of great singers but something about this guys voice just hits different.

[MaryHostetler-ly]

February 2024 and this song is still relevant. Beautiful.

[stevesapir]

This blows my mind. Written for both the sick and the healer. Incredibly powerful.

This live was released a few weeks before my friend died by suicide. She loved this song when it came out. And now I'm hearing it.

[stutikhadka]

His voice has so much nostalgia filled in it, I just can't help being transported to some 10 years ago when songs like this from Fray gave me solace and peace. All these songs sad but somehow fill you with contentment.

Commenting rn so that I can remember this moment. Going through a rough time but still hopeful. We'll get through this everyone. Stay strong.

This was my ex gf all time favourite song. After months and months of battling depression she gave in and slit her wrists. It's been two years. Everytime I hear this song I cant help but think about her. Please get help if you ever feel like theres no other option.

Lost my best friend to a massive heart attack at a very young age. This song means a lot to me. I listened to this a lot after he passed. Treat people with kindness because you never know if its the last time you will ever see them.

This is THE DEFINITIVE VERSION of the song. I've listen to every version...studio, live, etc...but none have come close to the incredible emotion expressed on this particular one...its just absolutely the very very best of what real vocal music is about. He expresses the exact meaning of the lyrics in every detail. One of my absolute favorite lyrical and vocal interpretations. The Edge

[Bahtax]

My friend commited suicide a few weeks back and this song has never been more clear. Wish me and the boys could of been there to help him. Love the ones who come into your life and leave you with a gift of friendship, Love, companionship, loyalty, compassion. These fleeting moments make this long hard life worth holding onto for.

My best friend died today a year ago. I miss him so much. Wish I could have drove him home that night. Miss you Mike. I’ll never stop driving those country roads.

[tingkusapam]

Quarentining with this past gems.Damnnn, miss all those time. Feels like many many years has past. 2020 sucks

[SH-lmek]

My father is termially ill, amongst his many health issues are Parkinsons and Dementia. I often sit and hope to get a moment with him, when he's lucid, to chat, this song means a lot to me...

3:45 - 4:30 is my favorite part....i always comeback to listen to this part multiple times....i wish there were covers that did this bit as well

[rejaez]

step one, you say we need to talk
He walks, you say sit down, it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left, and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Let him know that you know best
Cause after all, you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And I pray to God he hears you
Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have…

When an artist performs great live, that’s when u know how good he is. Love it! 🎶👏🏻

[NorelleUmabushi]

i love how you can never tell how good a singing voice is just from hearing the speaking voice ♥.♥

[scotverdin]

I didn't call a friend back ...and I wish I'd stayed up with him all night....15 year still look for answers.

[kjpiper]

I'm almost afraid to allow myself to feel the depths of this song as I listen with it looping. Have we not all felt the depths of this kind of pain at one time in our lives? So incredibly deep the pain is almost too much to revisit.

Is nobody gonna talk how great the tambourine player is?
