@g0dl0vesm3i hi man it prob wont mean that much just now but in time it will. dont wanna come across as an old know it all wi shit like "oh in my day" an "when i was your age" but honestly the words are so true just takes time to realise it. im "just 26" now but this was just a quirky song when i was at school but now it almost gives me a lump in ma throat
i'm 20 and i heard this when i was a kid it always stuck with me and i know everything in it is true it makes me feel a little better especially the 'don't worry about the future' and 'don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life' lol thats how i feel now
@ThonColinFilms im only 15 and im taking in note, i realise that what has happened so far in my life is only the start. i can relate only relate only a little bit to this. every time i watch this it makes me smile and how much my life is valued.
@tomkellycartoons I appreciate being 40 even though it's terrifying and scary. But I bet you have learned a lot since being 40? Was it all good? Can't say I see myself lasting that long!
@ThonColinFilms Ha! I didn't think I'd last this long, either! But...life after 40 is wonderful. My body and face may not quite be what they used to (still getting used to that), but..I'm happier now than when I was 20. Most of my friends my age report the same. It has taken me a long time to accept the natural aging process (which happens, no matter what you do), but...better about it now. The key is to always love yourself as you are...and live in each moment. Best wishes to you.
Im 16 and ive been listening to this since 1999, because of my awesome parents. And i try to show other people my age. But they just dont get it. Not yet at least. I guess they will understand when their older eh?
cannot believe i lost touch with this song! it always pop back into my life and each and every single time, never fails to put things into perspective for me. awesome song, and will forever be a classic!
Good Lord, this song takes me back to when I was at school. The lyrics make so much more sense to me now, it's funny what a decade can do lol. Thanks for posting :)
@BellaSwanHasMyLife Im 16 amd i used to listen to this as i fell asleep everynight when i was younger without fail, listening to it now, i realise i've lived my life by this song, my values and veiws on life, all of it is in this song. so he's right when he says 'you will not understand the power amd beauty of your youth until they've faded' i realise i'm still young but older than i was
I'm 14 and I'm struggling to realize this song? A stranger was chatting to me and told me to listen to this and to live life to the fullest?

@ThonColinFilms I ask because you say you are 40 and one of the lines in the song is "Maybe you'll devorce at 40"

@mattfox14 Oh hahahaha! Well maybe I would but I never got married.. But plenty of my friends have divorced before 40 so it's all true.
