  • ill be 23 come feb 27th, i can only relate to this song, because im an alcoholic. past month ive been psyching myself up that this coming monday will be the last night ill drink. im way too young to be caught up in this shit, cannot leave my life this way when it is just starting.

    my hopes: quit drinking, soon after quit smoking, and walk and bike everywhere. fiber will be my friend, and fuck fats,salts and sugars, veges, fruits, non red meat and whole wheats are my BFFS

  • no one else will know these lonely dreams

  • Thanks Tiiitou !

  • TiiiTou <3

  • You just don't get much closer to a perfect song than this.

  • Christ alive, this rocks.

  • Personally I love this song, especially the intro, it's just fantastic. But I know friends who are just okay with it... I mean they think it's too slow-moving and whatnot. I find that kinda sad, but it's just different tastes in music really. I don't see why people are constantly 'blaming' things on Bieber... (it's amusing perhaps but...) there's worse music out there, I'm pretty sure of THAT.

  • I wish good music like this could come back :/

  • I really like this song alot!!! & I'm 23!!!

  • I really love this song. Wow, I remember finding about it because of One Tree Hill back when was I was 19 or so. It made so much sense to me. Now I'm 23 :) And it feels so good to listen to it because it still makes sooo much sense. It breaks my heart that I feel some of the same pains I used to feel when I first listened to this song, but somehow everytime I listen to it and it gives me a lil hope.

  • This song didn't change my life or anything, it just makes me feel like I'm hearing someone say "I know, it's a bit shit at the moment. We've all been there, man."

  • I broke up with my girlfriend because I thought we were at different places in life and it wasn't the right time...I know she is the one for me and this song couldn't be more true.

  • I went to the thrift store where I bought Bleed American on CD a few years ago to see if I could find Futures on CD. I couldn't find it and as soon as I was about to give up a lady that works there brought out a cart of bins full of stuff and at the bottom was a Futures vinyl. What are the odds. I got it for $1.99 and the lady at the register was a JEW fan too and was jealous haha. This band is amazing

  • the main riff is 2 notes, then 3.

  • One of those songs that's just perfect in every way. A rarity.

  • Oh if only he knew.

  • "You'll sit alone forever if you wait for the 'right time' - what are you hoping for? I'm here, I'm now, I'm ready"

    Yeah, I can totally relate to that. I know someone I want to say that to right now.

  • Amazing song ... simply fantastic!

  • My favorite song of theirs. Top 3 out of all songs.

  • Great Song!

  • soundtrack of my life...well, at least my life last week :/

  • Song means about 475927 times more to me at 21 than it did at 17. Suddenly all those metaphors are literal.

  • I remember when I was 22 listening to this song thinking "I'll be 23". I'm about to be 27 next month and i'm like holy fuck where did all that time go? Oh, that's right I'll just listen to this song and remember how it's been tied to memories and events over the past 5 years.

  • @cjthom2 hahaha I'm 22 and thought the same thing listening " Jesus christ , I'll be 23 !" Oh how time fly's !!!!!

  • Geil, indeed.

  • this is an incredible amount of views for a non-single. 

  • I can not believe this song is 7 minutes long, it just doesn't feel that long

  • Beautiful song sort of reminds me of Shoes by The Electric Flamingos

  • the best of songs. i will love this till the end

  • i'll be 23 tomorrow and this song is freaking me out

  • I listened this song when i was 19, now I'm 23... somehow this song makes me feel more nostalgic than before...

  • @pacostich I'm 23 now and I used to listen to this when I was 18, but close enough

  • This song reminds me of how much I still love her.

    "I won't always love what I'll never have, I won't always live in my regrets..."

    I want to be able to say that.

  • @ultimage7 Exactly how I'm feeling too... Although, I don't know if I ever want to say those words..

  • Took me about 20 minutes to get past the first 90 seconds of this song...the chills just kept coming o.o

  • I feel those lyrics.

  • uwielbiam, ubóstwiam, kocham <3 !!!

  • Comment removed

  • My favourite song of all time <3<3<3

  • Happy 23 years to me. I hope to not be alone forever waiting for the right time. :/

  • love this...is so poetic :)

  • I went on a date with a boy I truly truly liked and I had told him two weeks previously that this was one of my favourite songs. At the end of the date he dropped me back at my house and in the car he said 'wait, I have a surprise.' He put this song on and said, 'see, I remembered. I just wanted to tell you what an amazing time I had today.' My heart had never beat so fast nor had I ever been so happy. x

  • @LovelyJessica24 Geez, I wish it was always that easy. hahahahaha.

  • @michael72986 Oh trust me Michael, me too! The relationship lasted only a few months but I still have good memories with this song. I hope you're ok and clearly if you're listening to this - you have great taste! Lots of love. x

  • nbvtrhujfeefwuhj Sorry, I just wiped the tears off my keyboard.

  • I just randomley typed in 23....haha cool song tho.

  • great song to listen to when I think to myself. *Hmmmmmmmmmmm*

  • Celebrating 23 today. Happy that song like these exists..

  • @Avengelable there is also a song called "24" XD

  • this is what love is..meaningful and from the soul

  • This song is the song I turn to when I've had a bad day, when I've felt low and needed someone who couldn't be there. I think everyone should have this song in their lives, to bring them back to where they need to be.

  • I know u people will b sicking of hearing these story's but this song did save my life. I was 16 and I had just dropped out of school and my parents kicked me out of home. I was in a dark place for a while and I was into some bad things. One of my mates back than who was a wreck as well picked me up one night to go and buy our daily pills where I heard this song play on the radio on the way there. I immediatley knew. I had to change and make something of myself. im now clean, married and happy.

  • This, and Polaris are probably the only two songs that can make me cry anymore. This brings back a lot of bad memories, yet at the same time, amazing memories. I might have to make a mental note to play this when I feel really depressed again, cos I don't think I could ever feel like I did four years ago again.

    Also, I think I'm gonna do a cover of this soon. Love this band always.

  • @RosaiaLeaf Eminem not afraid makes me ball my fucking eyes out... i broke down right in front of my best friend... this song does nothing for me even when i close my eyes...

  • @bradleycontois then you have no soul.

  • This song has a really big effect on me, too. I just get this same feeling everytime I listen to it. and I just think. The story behind this song is kinda unmeaningful to share, but no one understands how I feel when I listen to this song.

  • Easily their best song. It just gets me like nothing else. So beautiful.

  • this song will forever mark the most painful period of my relationship with my boyfriend who decided to leave me for another girl, but he came back to me shortly after. this song says exactly what went wrong between us, he wasn't ready to be the man he is today...

  • jimmy eat world are basically comfort music, there always there when you need them :D

  • Listening to this song as an adult....It brings all my memories and regrets flashing back...sometimes it's painful to listen to......sometimes it's hopeful....but i always relate to it on a deeply personal level, and i agree...soundtrack to your life...this has to be on it...It's beautiful <3

  • i wont always love what i'll never have... i wont always live in my regret... words to live by!

  • I'm turning 23 tomorrow, thought I'd pay this song a visit :) Easily my favourite. x

  • @DarkAngel3100 Happy late birthday :D

  • The first time i heard this song at 3:10 i officialy fell in love

  • the 11 people who disliked this have:

    1) no taste in music

    2) are fake

    3) have never really lived life and/or been hurt

  • This song means the world to me - I lost my brother when he was one week off of being 23, I was 23 two years later and this song brings all those feelings of despair back everytime I hear it. Saw it live at T 2011, I cried tears of sheer happiness.

  • This is not one of those songs, that you get crazy about in the very first seconds and listen over and over by couple of days, which makes you sick at the end and you leave it forever. I've been falling in love in this by 2 years and sometimes I consider as my favourite song. If I had a soundtrack of my life, 23 would be totaly in it.

  • i feel bad for barely downloading this album a few months ago, its fucking amazing

  • no one else will know these lonely dreams

  • how could you dislike this song?

    ..i sense some bieber fans about..

  • Totally agree dude x).

  • @ProperSound1 they're freaking EVERYWHERE man. I'd rather deal with trolls, sheesh

  • Comment removed

  • My Favorite part:

    No one else will have me like you do...no else will have me...only you!

    That's goes out to my girl Susie! Love you Susie!

  • i am going to be 23 tomorrow...and this is exactly how i feel.

  • Best song ever created! I always find myself going back to the futures album just for this perfect song :)

  • It's funny how they have awesome songs like this and Disintegration, yet someone(I don't know if it's the band) decides to make The Middle(wrong album I know but I really don't like that song) their radio song. I'm just glad they keep this style alive in their later albums, albeit barely but they do. Someone needs to tell me what it feels like to be invented, cause he makes it sound so great.

  • Such an amazing song.

  • Baby, you'll never know how much I miss you, how much I still love you, even a year and a half later. All I want is to tell you this, to let you know that it hasn't weakened, hasn't diminished, hasn't left me at all... its only gotten stronger, even when I don't talk to you for months. 6 women have come and gone since you, and everytime I look elsewhere, because they aren't you. All I want in the material realm is you... Let me find you again.... :'(

  • 11 ppl watch this video without sound

  • Greatest song i have and will ever hear, amazing

  • this song makes me cry. and I'm not even sad!!

  • This is one of those songs that you can just close your eyes to and think about life and memories. If you're ever sad or if you're going through a rough time, when you go to bed just shut the lights off and turn this song on. It's unreal.

  • @countingcrows123 I am doing this right now.

    I hope it gives me sweet dreams

  • @countingcrows123 #mylife

  • @countingcrows123 As soon as I hit play I remembered all the times I just laid in the dark on my bed having this song drown out every exterior noise. Creepy, you got us all on the dot o_O

  • @countingcrows123 So true, I bought this CD back in 2004 when it came out and I swear to god this song still gives me chills just like the first time I heard it !!!

  • Awesome song, I saw them performance it at Coachella this year, amazing times!

  • this is the first time i listend to this song since somebody stole my futures cd out of my car, i forgot how beatiful this song is

  • @VideoJunky I would have stolen it, too.

  • I love this song

    i think its about how he's ready, he's there, he's waiting for love

    but he can't find someone to love that will take as much as he gives

    <3 and how he's 23 and that he's knows what he wants

    i think thats it, but this song is beautiful <3

  • @SophiaAlmeida1120 Sometimes I think its about two people meant to be together, but for whatever reason they decide to part, much to their eventual regret.

  • @haughtin funny you say that.....same exact thing that has just happened to me :'( it sucks

  • been listening to this song for years waiting to turn 23 and dedicate it to myself. i'll be turning 23 in 2 months and this song never felt so close to how i feel...

  • @KissMeInTheMosh I've done the same exact thing, I'm about to turn 23 and have been waiting for that moment a long time. And for some weird reason, that song is exactly me!

  • @laurie88888888 Ive been hearing this song since I was 17, but this year all my music collection erased from my pc, and I vaguely remembered any of my old songs, when looking through my old ipod I found this one, just a lil´ time before Im 23.

  • this is (and always will be) my favourite song of all time...how can anyone honestly NOT like it??? it's like...the WORLD'S SONG....if the world had to have a song.... :')

  • I can relate to this song more than ever at this point in my life. I always listen to this when I just needs to cry my eyes out. I love, I abseloutley love it.

  • i love this songggg....

  • this song is impossible to find on downloads. Its such a great song. to bad i can only get it on here........

  • @mzcmocha

    ....that or you can go and buy the album...

  • @mzcmocha heard of torrents?

  • @mzcmocha YARR I'M A PIRATE?

  • this feels like a funeral.

  • This is true music. Their songs mean something. Their lyrics have a meaning. It's not just a load of random, whining love story, it's real music with a meaning. They're deep. One of the best bands around

  • Tout simplement magnifique.

    Surement mon morceau préféré, je me sens tellement bien quand je l'écoute. C'est fou!

    Je repense surtout à One Tree Hill à chaque fois que je l'écoute et je dis un grand merci à cette série de m'avoir fait connaitre cette chanson et ce groupe que j'aime autant maintenant. Et tout un tas d'autres groupes superbe ^^

    Je veux les voir en concert à tout prix x_x

    23<3

  • a song to be played after a funeral...

  • For me, this is possibly the greatest song of all time!

  • this is epic so much that i cried blood

  • 10 people like Bieber.

  • Good song

    greetings from Japan

  • god this is...so heavenly a song

  • my favourite song - it means so much to me

  • Something froze at 1:47

  • It still gives me that same feeling as to when I first heard it.... Such a powerful song !

  • 10 people are still driving away.. and they're sorry everyday.

  • If you don't like this song, you're not human.

  • One of my favourite songs.

  • apparently there are 10 people who have no music sense what so ever

  • i turn 23 this year and this song still holds true. amazing

  • i hate that the "Featured Video" is a GAMING video!

  • What in the world are people doing running around disliking songs? If you don't like a song don't listen to it or watch the video for it.

  • I love this song and the number 23 is the most important number of my life :'(

  • 10 people must be 24.

  • @IWillShineOneDay13 I'm 24! AHHHHHH!!!!!

  • This song had a VERY personal effect on me at that age..I was 23 and popping pills as an addict, life going nowhere and basically might as well be dead. I randomly threw this album on my mp3 player. On a night sitting outside having a smoke where i had not slept for 3 days and was high as a kite...this song came on and i cried my eyes out...it hit me like nothing else. I immedietly flushed the pills down the toilet and have not touched them since! I am 28 and loving life! This song saved my life

  • @crazyirish22 I'm about to be 23, and this song has the same effect on me. It saves my life every day. I don't know what I would have done before without it.

  • @crazyirish22 Could've at least sold them or gave them away like, recession and all =/

  • @crazyirish22 jesus dude, its a song. chill.

  • @crazyirish22 happy for you!

  • Respond to this video...  11 ppl can go to hell

  • @crazyirish22 Excellent! I'm currently 23 and just went through some shit with some pills, so I feel ya! I'm glad you are where you are now and I'm glad music helped your through it, even if it was just one song <3

  • i love this single..makes me long for the times when things were better..when life was simpler..when there were fewer worries..

    *sigh

  • this song makes me so sad :(

  • Hate growing up.

  • For some reason , I love this song so much , but it makes me depressed . Really depressed ?

  • I'm sorry, Randi.

  • It's gonna be a loooong weekend.

  • This song makes me think about Ultimate Fantastic Four.

  • 9 guys came from nowhere turned their computer off before listening to the whole song.

    How can they dislike this? This song is just.. Unbelievable.

  • @2Silversky They were high. Jimmy Eat World lovers who were high. And couldn't tell down from up.

  • I bought this album in 2004 when I was a Freshman, and it's still one of my favorites. The best album by Jimmy Eat World. Has gotten me through a lot.

  • this is their best album.

  • Love it heard it on one tree hill first but I love it

  • gaaaaah...i love this song ...and i esp. love 5:45 <3

  • Comment removed

  • @MostVP71 your dick?

  • I told my ex to listen to this song. It speaks from my heart :/ I love this song so much, and her too...

  • beautiful.

  • Heard this song when the album came out.. and I still love it. Seriously an amazing song.

  • it feels like i had lived my whole life based on the concept that 'things will get better' instead of appriciating the 'now'. And listening to this song, i look back and see how much i missed out on because i was simply stalling for a 'better' time

  • @0Smilelikeyoumeanit That still beats waiting for things to get better because the now isn't anything near pleasant. Where it's less about stalling and more about having to run so fast you barely feel alive anymore, because if you don't..the floor will crumble. And where you end up then is not a bright place.

  • I adoooooooooore this song :D

  • Words cannot aptly describe the beauty of this song. The best piece of music in the world.
