  • And there is nothing else to say. Thank you for a great song and video.

  • i love, the " stars are dancing in the water here tonight

    it's good for the soul, but theirs not a soul in sight, poetic...

  • this is the only song i know that can make me cry.

  • Well darren8328 - In case you choose to lift your eyes to the rest of the world. there are a whole bunch of us who are country music fans AND do care! This is an amazing song that reminds us of how blessed we are just to be able to enjoy what our amazing world have to offer us! Count your blessings, friend, and you will begin to see your life in a whole new way! Not meant to be sarcastic, truly, just wanted to give you my thoughts since you gave us yours! Have a GREAT day!

  • Do u think anyone cares

  • I don't think anyone noes imp alive

  • I love this song. My grandpa and I used to sing it all the time together.

  • -well I stand for 90% of country and DMB rocked at SPM in the other guitar town-

  • I can't stand 90% of country, but every now and then there are singular great songs. I haven't figure out the formula for the country music I like, but I think it's songs that aren't pure country (country tampered by other forms like rocknroll), like this one~

  • What a beautiful video! Can't wait to see your other creations.

  • Rip the audio from this video at speedyconversion doht cohm.

  • HORRIBLE QUALITY

  • ahh the audio quality is no bueno on this

  • Never been a Kenny Chesney fan by any stretch of the imagination, but I dig this. Dave Matthews puts a good song over the top.

  • no matter what a shitty mood i am in this song cheers me up

    :)

  • Eighties Gore get your head out of Dave ass...

  • Hate country music, but like this song

  • Dave makes Kenny look like an amateur on the mic. He cant write like Dave either, I love the song but Kenny is just a Jimmy Buffet wanna be.

  • dave completes it

  • If you can relate... do so... represent.. this song is ALL ABOUT LIFE... Aloha!

  • Dave makes everything better

  • trying to think this way

  • Kenny and Dave hit #6 in Billboard, in '10. Sorry to rain on Kenny's parade, but there are NO SUCH THING as 'lucky stars.

  • @DaveWollenberg yea, but you have to consider the wisdom he is giving out. life is a blessing his talent is a blessing, being born in the u.s. or anywhere freedom prevails is a blessing all of those things came about and come about without our influence or work. thus luck.

    if he were born in a different time period or different place or even aborted by his mother we wouldnt be "lucky" and receiving his music today... idk just a little bit of thought to chew on

  • Beautiful song and words. The song saids a lot and is very meanful to me. I love their voices. I enjoyed your images that went well with the song. Thanks for sharing it.

  • 20 people arent alive and well

  • I did a cover of I'm Alive on acoustic guitar. Check it out.

  • love this song : )

  • I am blessed with freedom, health and space to grow into a better person ...bitches :P

  • lol?

    

  • What a beautiful way to express gratitude for the blessing of life and wellness, thankful for the breath we take- God bless Japan in this disaster of all disasters. God bless the people of Japan for showing humanity in crisis! I see a beautiful, peaceful, resilient land of real people.

  • I did a cover of I'm Alive on my guitar. Check it out.

  • Rest In Peace Cody ~<3

  • In the past couple months, I have been deep in depression becasue of others bringing me down. I stopped caring about life, Family and friends.. This song brings me peace and wellbeing,

  • Had the blessing of meeting both men... Kenny Chesney cares so much about the people depending on him... Dave is a total "prima donna" that fakes the sheeple with his voice, but inside he's as empty as a drum... SO, I know the record company people put them together... I can't imagine Ken wanting to sing with such a faker as Dave... Sorry, truth hurts...

  • @nightsongs7

    yeah, Dave has written hundreds of poetic and emotionally charged lines of song, and continues to perform for record crowds that come to see him and fellow members of DMB, which, by the way, have increased in number every year for the last two decades. DMB has collaborated with more artists that you've probably never heard of than Lil' Wayne. It doesn't have to hurt, but that IS the truth.

  • @nightsongs7

    and to cross-examine your evidence that Ken Chessney is a true artists...check out Crossroads with Steve Miller and Kenny Chessney...only one of 'em looks the least bit excited about jamming together. I'll give you a hint, its the one who doesn't have to worry about his image anymore : /

  • @nightsongs7~ Sorry sweet cheeks, but truths not hurting here because, I haven't heard you say anything that was truthful yet!

  • My Grandmother died from lung cancer three years ago. That combined with this song has taught me a lesson nothing else can teach. And thats right, So damn easy to say that life's so hard. This is why music is so dear to my heart. And its not only country music. Any kind of music can touch you. I grew up as a country kid, but now i listen to metal, underground hip hop, and techno. lol.

  • Comment removed

  • love this song.. and it is true....live each day like it is your last.. you never know

  • Dave matthews sounds kinda like John Mayer in this song, great song too

  • Thanks for posting ..Excellent images with a great tune

  • I’m not a country fan by any means, I dabble now and again, but Kenny has always caught my attention and to hear him sing with my favorite singer: Dave Matthews is wonderful. There has been talk on many videos of this song who is better, please sit back close your eyes and be thankful this two men have come together to make something beautiful, and be thankful we are alive to hear it. :) Peace!

  • I agree... more people need to sit back and relax and listen....Life is such a blessing and it's what you do with it that matters....Peace Tisha :))

  • So many of my friends need to listen to this song before they post fml. "Breathing in and outs a blessing can't you see?"

  • I know that this is actually a positive song, with a happy meaning. Yet it still makes me tear for some reason :/ Think of all those people who are alive but unwell

  • He actually wrote this song to put on the WIllie Nelson cd they did together.

  • i'm not a country fan, but this song is beautiful :)

  • Listen to it over and over...

  • Who are the 16 commies, who disliked this?! This song is uplifting.. Don't listen to country often, this song is amazing for anyone who has ever been traumatized by the suck that life can bring.

  • This song means alot to those of us who are battling something.

  • Great video love all the paintings!!!!

  • This is why I love country music, it's from the heart.

  • @AlyakamSllim i think this is the best of country.. theres a lot of crap music from all genres.. but this is a great reason to like country, without a doubt

  • @AlyakamSllim chesney tows the line between country and adult contemporary.

  • @AlyakamSllim ~ You know, I'm not a country music fan, but I have to say I really love this song! ;~)

  • Great song. All of your songs give me chills!!

  • this song puts things in perspective.

  • Some days this song is what get me through the day/..

  • By all means I am not a fan of country, but this song is good, can't lie about that.

  • thats kinda sad those people without homes i wish i could just rap everyone up & hold them & make them better again

  • Great song! There is a lot of truth in these words. I take it to heart. Thanks for the post.

  • i love this song and it helps me when i am down,i tells my story beautifully!!!!!!!

  • Only reason I love this song is cause of Dave Matthews, only song I like that Kenny sings! And I love country!

  • A beautiful song and a lovely video. Nice job ; )

  • THIS IS SO NOT A KENNY CHESNEY. ITS REALLY DAVE MATHEWS WITH KENNY

  • @wews11 YES DAVE ALL THE WAY

  • @wews11 Kenny sing almost the entire song!!! dave has a small part all though it is like the best part of the song in my oppinion.

  • @wews11 stfu

  • i dont even like country and i dig this song.its about the message, not the style of music.

  • @cryptopumkincarver most country songs have the best messages any ways

    

  • Don`t you just love being alive if you werent you wouldnt be here to listen to this beautiful song <<<<<mid life change so the song puts in very good perspective love the song love the world and love you all =)

  • Who cares, beautiful song!

  • Breathing in and out's a blessing, can't you see?

  • this one's for you pops.

  • My aunt died two weeks ago. I shared a lot of memories with her. She's in heaven now though, she was a Christian, and she's with Jesus and all her friends. And this song reminds me that we are all lucky to be alive. We shouldn't be shocked if people die, we should be surprised we're still alive on this earth.

    So love your family and relatives on this Earth while you can guys. Life's a fragile thing.

  • This song touches on the "live your life" saying everyone hears all the time, My friend lost everything in a wild fire that tool his house and everyting in it. He was staying stronge for his family, But when it hit him deep a tear came to his face ' I told him it was ok and this song came on the radio, He relixed that life is short, and you cant stop for anything. We have been together sence birth and even tho he is younger then me, i look up to him for his strength. '' Im alive ' And well ''

  • I love this song, I posted it from your tunes to my FB, thanx so much for sharing.....<3

  • The song goes well with your video.....good job !!!! : ) Peace

  • only song that I like with Kenny Chesney in it and it's cause Dave Matthews is in it!

  • I just love this song!

  • Has anyone considered that Dave Matthews is amazing? And it would be a great privilege to Kenny to be able to sing a song like this with him? Kennys voice is superb in tone.. whether he's accomplished as much as dave I really don't think he has but his voice is perfect for this song and dave adds a very unique style to the song.

  • I can't believe that you idiots are arguing over who is singing this song.....who cares! I like the song because of the words and the meaning to me. I had a heart and double lung transplant 3 years ago and for me this song really has meaning. So, my advise to you morons is to quit arguing over petty shit and enjoy every moment you have cuz today could be your last day!!!!!!!

  • @lcroz72 some pent up frustration there?  It's just people's opinions.....

  • @lcroz72 I hope your doing well my friend...many blessings and hugs to you babe !!!! : ) Keep Smiling !!! Peace

  • @lcroz72 true. ppl need to relize any day they could die and that this song is talking about the value of life.

  • @lcroz72 and my suggestion to you would be to stop succumbing to that which is the classic art of trolling!

  • @lcroz72 I agree!! In March of 2009 I was in the hospital for 2 months with a double staff infection in my heart, a piece of my heart valve also broke off and went into my lungs causing pnuemonia. I was in ICU for the first month with the a machine breathing for me as well as dialysis! I had to learn to walk, eat, and even BREATHE on my own again......breathing in and out's a blessing can't you see........It is!! More than most of you will ever know!! This song is amazing.

  • He's alive, but not well enough to sing the song all by him self.

  • Doesn't it figure that two guys write something beautiful and everyone's got a shit all over it because they didn't take the time to really listen to what it had to say.

  • Apparently you are uncultured or an ignorant simple fuck if you don't listen to hip hop and you are unpatriotic if you don't like country music.

    It also looks like classical music is worthless because James Brown was not in on it.

    WTF?

    I'm not asking any of you guys to get along. Just shut the fuck up and die.

  • I'm not looking for replies here. I just think all of you commenters are stupid fucks. Any time two genres are joined, there are the inevitable arguments between the pricks trying to put the other down politely, so as to keep some shred of credibility.

    You just can't allow someone to listen to a song and like it for what it is, on its own.

  • this wouldnt be bad if he didnt have that stupid accent.

  • Why didn't this song get more attention? It's an amazing song!

  • One of my favorite songs

  • alanjermey you are one of the most ignorant people I have ever read a comment of. Your conclusion of my comment was incorrect and you are putting words in my mouth.

  • hmm..

  • when it comes down to it a culture is reflected by its music. Music holds the intricacies of that country; region by region. Since most American's relate and listen to country music. it is safe to say we are all country somewhere and somehow. This explains our united character and proves the life of the south is the backbone of all true American's.

  • @jabrownie22 So, you are not a true american if your favorite music isn't country music. That is one of the most ignorant statements I have ever read.

  • this song has been inspirational for me and other members of my family as survivors of a suicide. i like kenny chesney and dave matthews as individual artists, and this collaboration is a good one.

    love you greg

  • I'm not a Dave or Kenny fan but I'll be damned if this isn't a wonderful song. 5 stars for the song and video.

  • i love DAVE MATTEWS! and in my house of night book series this girl talks about loving kenney chesney. but this song sucks no offense

  • I heard they were holding hands while they recorded this in the studio.

  • Your "hungry" for a boyfriend. Get outta the closet and go ride some pole. Your here makin fun of the song but you probably cry while listening to it and masturbating to the mens underwear section in your Sears catalog.

  • This is the only song I like with Kenny Chesney in it! Dave Matthews sure makes it!

  • Dave's part is"It's good for a soul when there's not a soul in sight." the lyrics listed doesn't even make sense.. - This means that it's good to have faith when you're lonely!! Get a clue! The song is beautiful! Both Kenny and Dave are awesome, and I'm not a country fan...

  • not really... just it means it is peaceful, especially when one is alone.

  • What he MEANS is, it's good for you to spend some time alone. Christ almighty. It doesn't have anything to do with faith.

  • Its just a good song.. I dont give a flyin F*** who sang it.. Its a good one..

  • beautiful. your slide show of pix with this song are really nice. :)

  • great song.... aint fuck all u homophobes. grow up and be tolerant

  • I don't really listen to country, only Johnny Cash, but I heard this song and it's really beautiful. It makes a lot of sense, and their voices are so pure. Definitely changed my view of country music(:

  • Dave's part is"It's good for a soul when there's not a soul in sight." the lyrics listed doesn't even make sense..

  • how is that doesn't make sense....i like being alone sometimes

  • bc the listed lyrics on the right are this "It's gonna fall a soul when there's not a soul in sight"

  • If you liked to be alone, you would sing the song alone, instead of making it a duet.

  • lmao, very observant. Someones dumb...

  • @smcmu1len It makes alot of sence if you have been thru alota shit..
