By listening to this video, you are 2:50 older than before the video. I'm older after writing this comment. You're older after reading it. Now go listen to 'crayons can melt on all of us for all I care' and think about what they did...
My best friend sings this to me on my birthday each year while playing the guitar. It reminds me that even though time is always moving, with each day, my blessings in this life continue to add up.
The video starts with a shot of the sun rising on the Twin Towers and the phrase "There is a whiff of mortality in the air." As if this song wasn't morbid and thought-provoking enough.
This song makes me feel kinda hopeless

That feel when you'll never know why this is becoming the anthem of baby boomers.

I don't think Mystery Guitar Man's version is better, can't beat the original (for the most part).

For the people who don't know why the clocks are running at different times, it's because it's recording their time on camera.

John does have a piercing stare, doesn't he? It's perfect for the song. I'm amazed how many people take this song seriously, but we love it here.

Best birthday song; I 'm going to play this for my husband's 50th. I asked if he knew of this song and he said no; he is a TMBG fan, too.

is it just me or does the bass at 0:46 not fit that well with the guitar at all?
hlslayer123 7 months ago
@hlslayer123 It would have to be just you, because that's an expertly done counter melody. It fits with the guitar very well!
