John Mellencamp - I'm Not Running Anymore

[TheScottrocks9]

This man is more than a national treasure. This man means so much to so many people all over this globe.

[TashShaqMJ]

Yes @harleyspringer , I agree, Mellencamp is an International treasure, & this song inspires me :))))

[candyqueenify]

I loved this song since I was 4 because my dad had J.M CDs and i would always put them in the cd player and jump on the bed to his music hahha omg good times but i still love it at age 15 thats why you listen to your parents music first and you grow up loving it

[Alturqeyathome82]

This song came from the movie Pushing Tin (1999) & i thought it was Bryan Adams when i heard it but i like it.

BTW the movie Pushing Tin ROCKS IMO.

Thanx for the upload.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Mellencamp...my favorite forever and ever!

[minisnowgiraffes6]

i love this song!!! one of the best songs at my summer camp!! we made an awesome dance to it.

[bprife]

Even though this is a rock song, it has that dance kick to it as well as a hip hop sound in a way because of the recording of the part where they say "Yeah, and Screams," like you hear on Rob Bass' "It Takes Two". Other rappers used that part as well. This song is awesome!

[Patricklover77]

I Heart Mellencamp!!

[dadonred]

Holly sux! JK...

[SpeedLimit14]

Great memories. I find it ironic that this video portrays it cold and snowy, because this is a very tropical sounding song (or it sounds like it to me) and it was all over the radio in the late summer of '99.

[TheBetterdays2]

Best thing that ever came from Seymor, In

[mk196a]

best of the best

[katdaddy511]

Go On Tour John

[angelbell2005]

This video was made like five minutes from my house.

[ProFreedomForAll]

A baby boomer anthem...look in the mirror and wonder what the hell happened! For some it is a shock that they are old farts and all the botox in Jersey ain'ta gonna change it! The "me generation" is now the pee generation...with week bladders. And they/we are well on our ways to meeting our maker. Welcome to old age sucka's. If you waited until now to start worrying about your inancial health in old age...you are so screwed. Think lottery or relying on your mommy or daddy to bail you out.

[LoveJesusNotReligion]

Great song!

[Darthbelal]

Mellencamp looks like Tom Hanks in this video.......

[lwisen]

the song says it all

[kimtagli]

This guy is absolutely an awesome singer/songwriter! I just wish he came to my hospital when he had his heart attacks cause I would have definitely taken GREAT care of him!!

[DGA]

Just terrific

[AdamRiewer]

This was the song to remember, the summer of '99. We use to go out to Franklin County to chill out and swim at either Shady Beach or Little Indian Creek and this song would always play. This and Inside Out by Eve 6. Very nostalgic.

[RXG41]

I thought this song was ok when it came out, and I didn't even remember it existed, but just happened to see it as I was looking thru his music and gave it another listen - this song is really, really good. Totally underated. Videos pretty cool too. If you haven't heard it, check out Emotional Love from Mr Happy Go Lucky. Another great one!!

[Bubbakahuna]

Just plain cool, nothing more to say!

[seau2007]

John is so real with his lyrics painting what happens in life. He's one of my guru's included in a list of many. I get a little from alot and then form my rules for life and how to enjoy it. Surf's up !! Time for a puff of pacalolo !!! Aloha Steve

[kcfrompc]

can you believe he is wearing coveralls

[lagrimitas7o7]

okay... maybe I was wrong... maybe THIS one is my favorite?? It's so hard to choose. I love this though... "i looked in the mirror, what the hell happened to me?? Whatever I had, has gone away!... so I pushed the hair back out my face!" My favorite part... life is great no matter what your age!! This song always makes me feel great.

[billybenj]

wow not to dis him, but i liked his older look way better than the one he has in this video...

[c1212]

@billybenj

Prefer the tight jeans and pants do you? I understand.

[incident85]

I'm into connecting JM lyrics with stuff...if I was into quantum physics instead I would be a millionaire....i didn't know the Holly part.....thanx, interesting. The circus clowns part is genius......"thats ok I knew this would happen, but I was hopin today...." Ugh.....so true...like the JFK assassination.... You know exactly were your at when that happens to you...

[Hippocampectomy]

Did you know that this song is about himself? "Holly" is the name of his first wife. The "two circus clowns who like to fight" are his sons (child 4 & 5) he had with his current wife, Elaine Irwin Mellencamp.

[mellenheadlaurieann]

What a great video, 5 stars without question!

[harleyspringer1]

this man is a National treasure !

[MrBornbadd]

@harleyspringer1 well said <3

[jtmichaelson]

@harleyspringer1 Well put.

[rockcougar69]

@harleyspringer1 This man is a International treasure ! Greetings from North Italy !

[ATBirdMan]

This video was filmed on the southeast corner of the Courthouse Square (Walnut Street and Kirkwood Avenue), in Bloomington, IN.

The winter temperature at that time was about zero, and the windchill was about 20 below during the night time scenes. It was SO COLD!!

[Vulcan55]

The "Woo Yeah" knows no boundaries.

@Vulcan55 -- This just became one of my top 100 YouTube comments of all time.

@thegrammarfairy Looks like Prince Rogers Nelson will love on forever and he doesn't even have to record anything ever again.

[jtmichaelson]

@thegrammarfairy Looks like Prince Rogers Nelson will love on forever and he doesn't even have to record anything ever again. I mean, LIVE on forever.

[AdamRiewer]

why the hell does this song only have 4 stars? Is it because of VEVO?

[TheTSpicer]

Why did God not give U ears and eyes?

[candyqueenify]

@TheTSpicer you would become super depressed and pretty much everyone would kill themselves

[MrTerrySpicer]

Give this song the rating it deserves! at least 5 stars maybe 10. Watch the video and listen closely. Think about how our lives are constantly changing. Vanity sneaks up on us slowly and hits us suddenly! The American daily routine gradually wears us down, and perfectionism loses it's importance as we age!

[hailstormofpaint]

cool
