Videos | "Things My Father Said" - Black Stone Cherry

Everytime I watch this video or hear this song..I get all teary....I can't help it. My Dad means the world to me. Thanks guys for a truly amazing song...you have no idea how much it really means.

Black Stone Cherry is an awesome band. Your video is beautiful and touching in so many ways. What a great song and tribute. Thanks so much for including the fans. I am honored to be part of such a wonderful presentation. I am telling everyone I know about the vid and so far, they all love it. It makes me smile and also shed tears. Very, very nice job! Thanks for keeping it real. This is the most down to earth band out there right now, in there attitude and thier music. Black Stone Cherry ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Being in the Marines like I am now lead me to realize many things such as a whole new appreciation for family since I hardly get to see them often. But this song really hits me hard since I never know whether or not I'll make it home to my family or when I will see them again. I try not to think like that but reality is a bitch and life doesn't work out how we'd really like it to. What I'm really trying to say is, you don't know what you value most in this life until you no longer have it anymore. When you leave it all behind, that's when it comes up and catches you.

Dear Black Stone Cherry,

At the O2 Arena, before Nickelack played, you performed this song,....and here is what I have to say;

I fell apart,
when dad was gone,
never had the chance to say goodbye,
and as I listen to this song,
Tears fill my eyes,
For that chance passed me bye,
Like the turning of the page,
a new chapter had to begin,
yet still torn,
For dad meant the world to me,
I always was a daddys girl,
and I miss him so very much,
but as a star,
he will always shine for me,
from up above,
just as you say,
he is always watching over me,
like the light of day!

Hey, and I just wanted to add that you guys were fantastic at the concert here and I hope to see you perform again!!

Also, there was a mention of poetry on your biography,...so I hope you may also enjoy reading my book ;"Enchanting Echoes" on amazon website...

All The Best!!

To all fathers that have passed.....Rest In Peace, youre always missed.

Incredible. Astounding. I just want to cry. I'm twelve years old and I'm afraid that someday dad's going to die...

I lost my Father 18 months ago. This song brings me to tears every time i hear it. MISS YOU DAD.....YOU'RE THE BEST. XX

all i have to say is "goosebumps all over"

Dude?s this song is awesome not spoke to my father in nearly 10 years (you know how it is when you have a fall out). And this song just brought home so many home truths and I think it's about time to bury the hatchet and get on with our lives. Cheers guys will be seeing you at Sheffield can?t wait, saw you years ago (2006) in Orlando and did you guys rock

Wow. I'm lost for words. I found this video during the month that I was in Perth, meeting my dad for the first time in my life. It REALLY struck a chord.

My fiancé and I both loved the song and it brought her to tears. We will be asking at music shops for the album now.
