what their music means to us...
Who knows maybe one day the guys from Staind will be bored out of their minds
and end up on this page reading what you wrote about em...we can all dream...hehehe

I would just like to say that Staind is the best band I have heard in my life.
The power and emotion put into songs. Aaron's powerful voice, and the mood
of the sound of the instuments are amazing. Staind's music has helped me
through so many tough situations in my life, from family problems to drepression.
It helps me see that I'm not the only one with those problems and it helps me get
out of those problems. Staind has become part of my life and I would like to thank
the band for helping me through the tough times. Without Staind's music I don't
know what I would do. Thank You.

I would just like to say that Staind is the best band I have heard in my life.
Staind is by far the best band I've ever heard. All of their songs are meaningful
and have alot of thought put into them, unlike other bands that just make music
to make money and really have no point in the songs. I think it's really cool how
Aaron Lewis as well as the rest of the band want to put out the message that your
not alone and everyone has problems, but you just have to look through them and
figure it out. Staind's songs mean alot to me. When I'm feeling stressed out and
depressed, I always turn on their music and relax. It's a huge stress releiver
for me because he went through alot of problems that I have. I think the best
songs are "Crawl", "Epiphany", "Home" and "Fade", althought I truely love all of
his songs. I hope they come out with a new cd soon. Good job Staind.

I would just like to say that Staind is the best band I have heard in my life.
ive been listening to staind for about a year, but it seems like ive
known the songs forever. even though i dont have as many problems as
Aaron, it makes me think about how bad life can realy get and how i
am thankful for those issues not touching my family. my favorite songs
are Epiphany and Outside. they just relate to me so much. |

Hey all...just wanted to say how much Staind is to me.
I can't get through the day without listening to them. The songs Aaron has
seem so real to me..daily I have a new colfict that I have to deal with
making each day seem like it will never end. But by the end I just lisen to him
and realize that things'll be okay and that I just need to take things day by day
and hopefully I'll get by alright.I know my problems aren't as bad as they could
possibly be but they bring enough stress to me that I break down and don't know
what to do...being raised as someone I'm not and trying to fit everyone's
perceptions on how I should be and what I should do and whatever I do is wrong...
just through Staind I've been able to see that I'm not wrong and that I'm not
the bad guy...well girl that they think I am...well sorrie to bore u all but
I needed to get this off my chest, Thanks for listening. |

I like staind because it is my life. The feelings and emotions that are
put into everything and aarons vocals are unbeatable. Aaron is definetly
someone I look up to in music. I have a band of myself and we look up to
staind like a father and whenever we are down their music brings back to
life and gets us goin again and when we go to their concerts we feel like we
should be up there with them and they push us even harder. One day we will
be there and openin up for the best band in the world(staind). And I just
wait for that day and I'd like to say to Aaron and the rest of the band that
u guys have made us come this far and hopefully we meet each other in the
future and I just wish u could here our cd now but if we make it just remember
the name "Syfon"... |

Why do I like staind?
Every song that they have has so much feeling and reality.
Whenever I hear any staind song some warm feeling comes over me,
And I just let go of everything thats pissing me off. Staind Puts
me in a good mood.. The songs are meaningful,with beautiful lyrics
but then again its hard and it rocks!! Trough Aaron's Music we see how
life has been for him..And alot of people share the same problems...
And I think Stainds music lets people know that they are not alone.
They are one of the most realistic bands ever.. and because of this staind is going
to be around for a long time!!!!! |

I like staind because they write songs that have meaning....
they have lots of emotion and are all based on aarons life.
that is y I have aaron as my role model and hero and idol.
he went through so much and look what he has now....
it gives me hope when I feel down....
Waste and For U mean the most to me as far as what songs
I relate to because for u is like my family life when I lived
w/ my dad and waste is such a powerful sad song.... |

Why do I like Staind?
For the simple reason that not only are they playing music but they are
displaying raw emotion as well, I think they are very harmonious as a band,
and they all play great together, I like Staind's songs because they let me
know that other people have had it hard too, Staind's music is like a stress
relieve to me.
Which song can I relate to?
On "Break the Cycle" there is a song (Track 9) that Aaron Lewis sings to his
wife Vanessa, my husband might as well be singing that song to me and
vice-versa. I do have a long winding road behind me and so does my husband,
and it lets us know that there are other married couples out there that have
"roads" too, the emotion that comes out of that song is love and everytime
my husband and I hear it together, we hold each other close.
Another song that I really dig is "Fade", I faded too, but I'm back now,
that song helped me come back. "Fade" is my anthem. |

Why do I like Staind?
Actually there is nothing left to say, because all of you just explained
everything I wanted to say, but I just think it's great that we all feel the
same way about staind's music, aaron and the whole band. It's good to know
that their music is here in this world and I hope that they will keep on
doing what they do a long time. I look up to aaron like nobody in this
world... I love you and thank u. I wish aaron good luck with his kid and his
wife!! |

Why do I like Staind?
I have been following staind ever since they were playing in bars in the springfield mass area.
my life is nothing but staind. the reason i'm writing this is in hope that aaron himself
would read it. all he ever hears is how his music hurts people. that's bullshi*. the music
that aaron makes does nothing but help me through the hard times of life. there is nothing more
that i love to do then put in one of my many staind cd's and let all my problems "Fade". I hope
that aaron does read this, and if not then to anyone else, listen to the meanings of aaron's
lyrics and music and not just what's "on top". Aaron and Staind is my life and passion and
always will be and no one person can compete with my collection of Staind and Aaron Lewis
memorbilia. |

Why do I like Staind?
To me Staind is the greatest band in the world.They r one of the true bands that say the words
not just to say them but you can tell that when aaron sings he actually means what he says and
you dont see that to often today.When i saw them at the family values 2001 in tampa i can
honestly say that it was one of the most beautiful things that ive ever seen when the band
played outside.All that u could see was lighters throughout the arena.Its strange how music
can bring so many different people together through one song |

Hey my name is Mal and I would like to say that I think Aaron, Johnny, Mike,
and Jon have real talent. I used to get picked on just like Aaron did when
he was younger, and the music of Staind really helped me through it. Other
people sometimes say that the music was "depressing" but I just think of it
like there is someone out there who knows what's going on and understands.
The song I really feel I can relate to the most is "Outside". That song is
so powerful, the lyrics, the music, the mood-everything. To me it means that
no matter how bad things are, and no matter what happens, there is always
someone out there who knows about all your problems and has been there so
they understand. It's also, to me, telling other people to just leave you
alone and not to judge you because we're all the same, inside they're just as
bad or as "ugly" as you are. That song helped me in so many ways--it
changed my whole way of thinking, it changed my life. If Aaron ever sees this,
and I REALLY hope he does, well I would just like to tell him Thank You.
Thank You for helping me, and so many other people who feel that they are not
alone because of your songs. Thank You. |

if i ever met Aaron i'd tell him this: when i hear the
music im free from my mind and the world around me.
I've been sick, and I've cried, and I've bled, but
when it seems like im with you my pain is replaced
with love. And that's the greatest feeling in the
world. For me the fault lies in what I feel I dont
deserve. Because of this all my efforts to heal have
failed. These thoughts are blinding. And if I could
see what I need I would have taken it long ago. I am
now where you've been in the past, but at least I know
what I have. You give me something to hold onto so I
won't fall too far. I realize I dont know you and all
this might sound strange, but thank you for your
honesty. Because that is so hard to find.

I just wanted to say that Staind is definately one of the best bands ever.
You know... there are bands that show up and they make
some good songs and, yeah they`re great and stuff.
Staind is different though... to me Staind is a band
that causes a change inside a person... like inside me.
When I first heard their music I was surprised about the
quality of both words and music. Aarons voice is
outstanding... so powerful and still so innocent... and
then I heard OUTSIDE and it was like a curtain opened up
and I was able to see those words I would have wanted to
use so many times. Outside describes it all. The lyrics
are so fantastic that you wouldn`t even need to
understand them in language in order to feel what they're
meaning is... The Music is so full of anger, pain and
also weakness... it is faszinating. So let me end this
here since I am going overboard again ;) Thanx alot Aaron
and all the other members of Staind for the great music
you guys do.

There are not enough words in the world to express what
Staind means to me. Their music and lyrics have kept me
here, to this day. At the time I discovered Staind,
about 5 years ago, I was going through a very difficult
time in my life. But when I listened to them, I realized
that maybe I wasn't the only person dealing with the
cards I had been dealt. The passion they all have,
especially Aaron, with his sublimely beautiful voice.
If it had not been for them, putting themselves out
there many years ago, I have no idea where i would be
in my life right now. Everything they create is
brilliant, and it only inspires me to continue with my
writing. I cant begin to thank you, because thanking you
doesnt seem enough, but, thank you from the bottom of
my heart for instilling the faith, and giving me a way
to breathe easy. You mean the world to me.
