Hey everyone, my name is Noah Rickertsen and I am in a contest right now to open up for Tyrone Wells. I need help getting as many views as possible so I can get in the top 10! It would mean the world if you would watch the video, share it, and like it. Thanks guys :D
Would it have been cooler if Will's song could have got airplay with him singing it? Yes, of course but this band does it decent and at least doesn't butcher the song. They stay true to the spirit. Obviously Will put the song out there for people to use and maybe this will help open doors for him. Good job EYB :) Went through a similar feeling when Faith Hill made a smash out of Cry and Angie still couldn't get airplay. Sometimes it happens. I still keep the faith good songwriters are valued.
This song was done by Will Hoge like two years ago... He must have sold it... Will does a way better version... leave it to a big name band to get a great song heard... Not that the Eli Young Band does a bad job... Just not as good as the original
this song and video fits my life to the T .and i know its just a video but could'nt they of at least gave the old dude as much money as his guitars worth like a stack of hundreds not 20 bucks gess im not supposed to notic that.
All I have to say is say hello to the future country band that is almost as good as Brooks and Dunn. At least they keep country country. Now as fans we need to make sure we get them to #1.
This Will Hoge song has been my favorite for years and I think The Eli Young Band have done a fantastic job. Hoge fans - this is good for him! Who cares who does it better?!
This song gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it. I start thinking back to when i was little driving around with my grandpa on the farm listening to and falling in love with country music. Dam good song!!!
i love country music.. i was riding in the car with my girlfriend.. and she's lsiten to it but isnt a huge country fan.. but this song starts playing. i look at her and go.. bet you dont know this one. she looks back and says. way back. on the radio dial..the fire got lit inside a bright eyed child. love does amazing things
Getting to the heart of anything one does...or dreams they want to do....don't ever give up, dreams are the only thing that is free anymore, and the end result is in one's control!! Great Song, lyrics are so meaningful!!
I am so so so so happy to see all the Hoge love on here! Hoge has more grit to his voice and that is what makes the song. Hoge has the heart and soul. Hoge was born to play. I can't imagine being on the edge of death and then coming back to doing insane concerts! Only 2 more weeks until I get to see the man himself!
I don't care who it's by as long as it's a good song. Great song by both Hoge and Eli Young Band. People need to stop bitching so much and just enjoy.
One of my fav Will Hoge songs ever! EYB stays true to Will's version. Great job! If you like this song you'll love all of Will's stuff, check him out! They don't make songwriters like him anymore.
I heard this on CMT this morning, and I'm a guitarist. I liked the song, although I don't understand the lyrics. But it could be that I've been up for 23 hours straight now =)
Good video but I disliked it because I've seen them play it in concert three different times and not once did they give Will Hoge credit. And they started off on Texas Country stations and now they've began to lose their roots. Shame.
@lnbkr ; Weird because I've been to their concert every time they were and town, and they've ALWAYS give credit to Will Hoge. And it's not "losing their roots"? It's spreading their wings and actually making it big time in the music industry.
This song is so amazing! No matter what you have to keep your head up and smile! Life for today, and make your dreams come true! Don't ever let anyone bring you down!
@d3ath3ater97 there's over 40,000 views now, still just that 1 guy/girl that dislikes everything just so people yell at him/her, this video just got another Like though.

even hough i just got this song 2 days ago i cant stop listenin to it it gets me into a trance and makes me think tht life is worth liveing and never stop trying for your dreams
I cried, I really cried, both while seeing the "Small Town Kid" (my "other" favorite song by EYB) drumming, and the final scene. I've heard this song (not exaggerating) hundreds of times, both versions, but the video just made it even better. I heard they were making the video and was worried it wouldn't live up to what this song has done for me, but whoever directed this video deserves some sort of award, the video, just like the song, is beautiful, and as close to perfect as you can get.
