not reading any of the comments prior to posting this, this is pure early 00s highschool. i recently played this for several friends and all of them confessed that this was a part of their "highschool sweetheart" relationship. as was the entire punk goes 80s cd. but we will and should be... "FOREVER YOUNG"
I first downloaded this album back when I was in Junior High, because I was into all the Pop-Punk/Emo bands that covered the song. I stopped listening after my musical tastes changed. Eventually, I began to fall in love with 80's New Wave bands, and thus I came full circle, and began to listen to this album again.
There can't be another Punk Goes Metal as punk has become metal. Punk nowadays has mainly become more and more metal, being liken metalcore or screamo. Metal has taken over a lot and bands that do play proper punk music are usually rare or are old bands.
it was awesome hearing a different version of this song! i'm a huge fan of the original, and usually only listen to slow acoustic songs.... but you guys totally did it justice :D
I'm not going to lie, It was a little disorienting but only because that was the song my dad sang to me growing up, that's the song that he danced with me at my wedding and the song that we played at his funeral. It's not bad... just odd. Not my style, I guess.:S
it's an awesome cover. Actually, I like it better than the original and i NEVER Like covers better than the original (with the exception of Static Lullaby's cover of "toxic").
@allstar13100 NO, it's not Christian music just because of one freakin' line. This was my mother's song for me (the original version). Neither of us are Christians. Quit being so close-minded. *eye roll*
The way the lead singer sings this song is the not the way he sings his own songs. His voice isnt for rod stewart but i LOVE this song and the way they did it.
For all of you who have or are about to star harping on the lead singer's abilities, there's a little known phenomena in music known as "style." Covers are NOT carbon copies of previously released songs. As far as updated covers of contemporary hits, this ranks right near the top of the list. They've imparted their own style and energy; it IS called "Punk Goes 80s" for a reason. Five starts, for sure.
Yes, covers are not carbon copies, but bands that originally sound like shit should stay as far away as they can from classics. Its a modern shame against the great bands from the past. This singer cannot hit the notes. Its a fact. He can't. He should have picked a different song to cover. Bands will make it further if they use their own talent and style to produce their own music that will flatter their abilities rather than make them sound like shit. One star, for sure.
If you couldn't tell from the album title, this is a punk cover of the song. Just because you can't appreciate the genre, doesn't make the cover worse because he "can't hit the notes".
DUDE. The song can be about whatever it means to the individual. This was one of me and my ex boyfriends songs, it's a song about love and letting go and wishing something good for someone, I don't care what it was written about, for ME its a romantic song so whoever gave me a thumbs down for my reply is a moron.
this song was used in a video put together about our marching band and we won champs and it makes me think of all the great times with the seniors who are graduating
