Slade claims that the song is about all of the people that tried to reach out to the boy but were unsuccessful. As Slade says in an interview, the boy's friends and family approached him by saying, \"Quit taking drugs and cutting yourself or I won't talk to you again,\" but all he needed was some support. The boy was losing friends and going through depression. He lost his best friend and could not deal with it. The verses of the song describe an attempt by an adult to confront a troubled teen. In the chorus, the singer laments that he himself was unable to save a friend because he did not know how.
I got a lot of e-mails about it (...) One boy died in a car accident, and I guess it had been the last song he downloaded from his computer. They played it at his funeral, and some of his friends got Save a life tattooed on their arms. The response has been overwhelming.
The song was first featured on ABC's Grey's Anatomy, after Alexandra Patsavas, the music supervisor for the show, saw the band perform in Los Angeles. Alexandra then incorporated the song into the second-season episode \"Superstition\". After its usage in the episode, the song became a minor Hot 100 hit. The song became an \"unofficial theme\" for the other members of the Grey's Anatomy production after the episode aired, leading to the decision that the song would be used in the main promotion for the third season in the show. Grey's Anatomy is credited with bringing popularity to the song. It was also used in the show's musical episode when Callie was having surgery to save her and baby Sofia's life. It was also used when Derek died and Meredith stood at his bedside. [13] The song also featured prominently in the season five Scrubs episode \"My Lunch\", and was used as the song of choice for the 'best bits' of season 8 of Big Brother UK.[14]
After being paired up with a troubled 17-year-old teen who had many problems, including drug addiction problems. He found out that no one, including himself, had the capacity to save him from destroying his life.
The title track, \"how to save a life,\" was inspired by slade's experience as a mentor to a crack addicted teen. \"I was a sheltered suburban kid when I met this guy. He was a recovering addict, coming out of a really tough teenage life. Thankfully, he was on his way out of that life, so he was able to really look back with some objectivity. The song is more of a memoir about his slow motion descent and all the relationships he lost along the way.\" destined to be one of the band's greatest hits, slade isn't worried about getting tired of performing the song: \"it is the easiest one for me to sing every night. I constantly get emails from people who relate to it.\" this is from their official website...
It's about suicide. It's someone trying to help someone from hurting themselfves and thinking back on how they should have listened instead of thinking what to say or how they should have stayed up with the person all night. The song really means how to save a life.
This song is about a lot. It's emotional, and really makes you feel the connection. It's about a suicide, and how this guy wasn't able to save his friend, because he didn't know how. I recently had a suicide attempt, and luckily I survived it. I look back and realize how thankful I am that my attempt didn't go through. Just know that I am here if you ever need to talk, just shoot me a text, and I will help you (620)-204-1056
This song reminds me of all that I have lost and how many times I have wanted to save there lives how much I wanted to make memories with them that would last forever. there has been some days that I feel it is my job to save everyones life even tho it might cost mine. So this song hits really close to home for me.

There is always going to be someone you can't save and it hurts not being able to understand what they mean. Struggling with depression and anxiety isn't easy, the thoughts get to the point where you can't take it anymore. A friend of mine shared the same feeling and experiences I had so we tried to help each other the best we could to stay away from the thoughts that ate at us, but in the end it was enough to handle for her.
It all seems so innoucous. In \"Superstition,\" a second-season episode of Grey's Anatomy that aired in March 2006, we see a montage of characters working at Seattle Grace Hospital. In surgery, Dr. Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey) tells his team, \"It's a beautiful day to save lives, people,\" which somewhat explains why The Fray's \"How to Save a Life\" is playing on the soundtrack.
This song rightfully plays during a montage of surgery scenes on the show. It's basically the theme song for Derek Shepherd's catchphrase, \"It's a beautiful afternoon to save lives, people. Let's have some fun.\"
Overall, How to Save Life is nearly perfect. Nearly every song's message contains key values and life lessons. \"It's so humbling to hear people connecting to these songs in such a strong way,\" says Slade. Indeed, it must be, and The Fray is a band the Christian music realm can hopefully keep connecting with for many years to come. 781b155fdc
