@PropMonkey87 I would say that this is a lot less cheesy than love songs, which we continue to listen through centuries, especially on TV ads. And consider this - most songs have already similar meaning to another song, whether it's a song about love or politics. The most un-'cheesy' song you can get I suppose would be "My Jeans" by Jenna Rose or "Friday" by Rebecca Black. Who else ever wrote a song about that? None at all, of course.
@PropMonkey87 I don't agree, but that doesn't stop me from lovin' the way you said it. Anything can be made shit by constant repetition on telly though, wouldn't hold it against the guy.
omg! i can't believe how much i can relate each and every single sentence of this!!! this is my life's song! i can't believe i found this song at d accurate time. i love it! i love this song!!
every time i hear this song on the radio or whatever, it always makes me think of the picture of a slide with someone in it because i play this video too much..I LOVE THIS SONG!
I've been having some tough times lately with people, friends, and life. I clicked this song looking for a different one, and it made me really happy. I shed a tear... but this time it was more like a tear of joy.
And now I kinda have a little hope in me.
Just a small, tiny bit of hope, is all I need to make it through the day.
You know... I actually find this to be rather interesting to watch. Not only does the picture set a scene of "never growing up" like in the song, but it is just a neat picture to look at. The font is also great. Well done!
Benson~ I hope you still read these blogs~ people that tell you to change your lyrics are many things I could reference, but I won't go to their level. CASE IN POINT~I will beg you as a fellow artist, as a fan~DON'T CHANGE YOUR LYRICS~I love your lyrics that is what made me start buying your stuff~see you in PHX 2 weeks brother, can't wait
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I find these types of vids really tiresome. Too bad you didn't figure out an interesting way of doing this. Lyrics flashing on a screen are just not interesting unless they're only occasional and there's actually something going on.
@nakedvolleyball Boo this man! BOOOO!! Use your time creating something instead of bitching at others, then MAYBE someone will take what you have to say seriously.
@nakedvolleyball Actually, I find these videos useful because they load really fast and generally have decent quality. You can add them to a playlist and have music in the background while you work, clean, etc. Sure, there not the most exciting, but they certainly have their purposes. Also, if you hate them so much, just change to something else and don't watch it anymore. It's just that easy.
I love this song, and i think there is a similar song or a song that has a very similar melody but can't figure out what or who it is and its driving me crazy! anyone know if there is a song that sounds like this one?
i love this song, but you might want to correct the lyrics. i noticed there were quite a few mistakes. i dont need anyone attacking me on this, im just pointing it out (: anyway, amazing song!
hm, like instead of "old", its supposed to be "up" and instead of "have married", should be "are married". and lastly i remain unsure about this one, but i think it might be "how far i rome" as opposed to "how far i row" but i suppose both work. anyway, don't stress about it, it's not really a big deal.
Love your sound...very reminiscent of ELO, Steve Miller Band, Queen...my fave musical genre ever. Who are your influences? Please continue this path...you're wonderful.
Ghost Town was a good movie, but that's not why I looked up this song. I heard it again recently in a movie called, "Management"; which was a really good movie. :)
Yay!!! Go Brendan!!! He gets married either tomorrow or in a few days. He's marrying my cousin at my aunt's house in Tennessee. I was going to go... but I take my school-work very seriously and I don't want to have to take an end of the year exam. So...
he is not marrying your cousin cause shes a tramp and even if he is the'll get divorced also y miss the wedding 4 a bitch ass test i would go if i were u man
hes in englands at this moment on tour , id did security last night at his first show at thekla bristol , was a really good night id never heard of him before , but was good all the same
Ghost Town is the best movie to watch multiple times, for some reason. It's been on HBO a lot lately and every time I come across it, I'll forget about what I was watching before and watch it.
I can so relate to this song right now, all my friends are getting married and or pregnant but I feel like I'm going in the opposite direction I want to live and look some more...glad that others might feel the same way sometime..
your very dim witted. I simply made a comment in the hopes that the people that recorded the song could and would address the issue and ultimately better the songs. Glad you don't understand. kindly go to hell i wasn't knocking the song, simply saying hey here's what u can do better.
The first time i heard this i couldn't get the tune out of my head for a week and oh,look,it's happening again. This is some catchy,compelling shit. I love this.
I'm pretty sure such an awesome song deserves more views and likes than that
