  • perhaps never, that is my fav thing about his voice as well. I just adore the sounds.

  • i LOVE his pronunciation of words. my favorite singer by far. i try to cover his songs but they never turn out well. but maybe you all will like em. please check em out:)

  • I wish he never left Mayday Parade, even though I don't blame him, Mayday isn't the same without him.

  • @USCxGamecocks i know what you mean, my dad died August 20nd and my birthday is the 27th. My Dad was a US marine Lieutenant Colonel, great man. He was there for me all the time. When he and my mom split i only got to see him during rare occasions, when he wasn't shipped off. It was hard for me, he moved to Penn. where it was easier for him to go to Washington D.C., where he was to be sent to be shipped. Me and him had great times. I dedicated this song to him. Stay strong! You'll make it through

  • he sounds like the ex-vocalist of mayday parade..

  • @lav3nd3r09 wait isn't it ? his name is jason lancaster i'm pretty sure he formed his own band, this one^^

  • @traceface02 yeah..

  • @lav3nd3r09 please tell me you're kidding.....

    he is the ex-vocalist of mayday parade

  • @alexkleiner12 ahaha .yeahh! just kiddin men. haha. i love them by the way.

  • @lav3nd3r09 He is the ex vocalist of Mayday Parade..Jason Lancaster.♥

  • @lav3nd3r09 he is..........

  • @lav3nd3r09 cause it is.

  • love it especially the chorus part !! <3

  • i swear his eyes never open!

  • @Brandonbobst1 Maybe because this is an incredibly emotional song for him....

  • I'm not trying to 'one up' the top comment about someones dad passing away, but I think we all have stories and ways of relating to this song. My dad had a severe heart attack last year, followed by quintuple bypass surgery. There were so many complications, and I watched my dad suffer for nine days after with multiple organ failure, and then sepsis. He died on November 9th, three months ago today. All I can say is that I cannot wait to meet Go Radio in May, and thank them for this song.

  • holy gauges batman!

  • How can I fit all these words,

    into such a sAAAAAmple verse

  • @tmanfender no jason was the lead singer for mayday parade. But hey everyone makes mistakes ok. :)

  • @Meatlooaf and Freekicker8 Thanks for the reply guys its nice to know im not the only one who wishes they loved there day and was a better kid for him. My dad deserves alot but not me and i dont deserve him. Thats life *shruges*

  • I love Jason.... but wtf is up with the earings...

  • This song is so beautiful. Most underrated band of all time.

  • This song is so beautiful. Most underrated band of all time.

  • My dad is still very much alive. But I still tear up every time I hear this song. Because I can't even imagine losing him, or my mom

  • april 6th they're coming to va. fuuuck yes. <3

  • the singer was the drummer for mayday parade right?

  • my dad passed away october 2011 from drugs and alcohol. i found him in his apartment. it was the easily the worst day of my life. this song makes me cry every time i hear it.

    please, if someone you know is suffering from addiction, get them help. i'm living with this regret every single day of my life because i didn't get him help or try to help him myself because i was scared. don't be scared and a coward like me. you can help save a life and avoid so much heartache.

  • @wilky9393 I love you dad!!!!! ;( Forever my father, forever my hero.

  • The people who disliked this can suck my left nut and choke on the right

  • My dad has a rare muscle disease and it runs through our family. His father died when my dad was only 18 and that's how old I am and I know that there isn't much time left. We live everyday together knowing that it could be the last that we have but that doesn't change anything. He taught me everything that I know from how to play the guitar to sports. He's an incredible man and father and every time I hear this song I think of him. This is an amazing song and will always be one of my favorites

  • omg jason is so amazing even live and his lyrics are freakennnn..... ahhh no words can describe

  • Hi my name is Ashton I want to be a musician when I grow, I recorded a cover of this song on my channel for my dad, I would love it if you could check it out and let me know what you think of it. Thank you for your time! :)

  • I love my dad so much, he's honestly the best dad I could ever ask for. He's amazing. He treats my mum perfect, and just everything he does is amazing and caring. He tell's me that he loves me everyday, even though that could get annoying, it's still super cute. One day I wan't my husband to be like my dad, my expectations are set high because of my dad. I'd just like to say to all the people that doesn't have a father, stay strong and God bless ♥

  • I cried I wish I had a father that actuly cared about but I don't he has lied to me and just ruined me emotionally I just wish that I could of have had memories good memories but I don't it's just sad to me every time I see a father with his daughter I want to cry but I'm always happy for the little girl cuz she gets to have a dad when ever I see a movie or a tv show with a father and a daughter having a moment I cry wishing I had something like that but I don't I've delit with that but it sti

  • Me and my dad never got along growing up, I wanted him to never talk to me again, then one day I got a call my dad got Phenomena and couldent make it through, he was sick all his life with cancer and it scared his lungs that his body couldent handle it, I live everyday knowing I never got the chance to say I love him or goodbye... I love you dad R.I.P

  • my best friend's father commited suicide and it ruined him. this is his favorite song. ( my best friend ) i love you, alex, and may he rest in peace.

  • I can't remember the last time I cried over the loss of my dad...

    You know a song is good when it can pull out emotions like that.

    Cheers, to Go Radio.

  • i havent seen my dad in a few years now, and not gonna lie its been really really hard. But i use the pain, the anger, and the sadness i have built up, to be my drive to reach my goals. Just know rudolph thompson jr. you'll forever be my father, no matter what. your going to be proud of me soon

  • this song is amazing in so many ways .... such words in a song hold such a strong meaning. i love my dad and this song reminds me of every reason that i love him.

  • I freaking love Go Radio.

  • i'm so happy this wasn't filmed with a potato :)

  • :))))))

  • love it!

    

  • Amazing song

  • My grandfather passed away when I was only 4 months old. I can't even fathom how my dad feels and felt. I can't wait to see my grandpa face to face when the time comes.

  • Such a good song! This is a beautiful performance :)

  • If you comprehend the songs lyrics, know the story behind it and still sit there without crying, you're an emotionless human being.

  • I love you daddy, can't wait to see your face again<3

  • i love you dad. i hope one day we can see eachother again

  • i love this song so much, and i don't even know my dad. i really wish i could meet him :(

  • Love his voice hate his accent

  • @Iwillneverfalterr I know! I hate how he says Fauuwwther instead of Father

  • Jason needs to annunciate a bit more in the choruses (liff-uh me up), but he really is a fantastic singer. Always in key, such AMAZING range from all the videos I've seen!

  • @sk8brder40 It's just his accent, I believe it adds a certain charm to the music.. keeps it fresh and unique.

  • @disgruntledmodatucka I love his accent, but he's gotten a little sloppier as far as annunciating goes. He doesn't sing those parts like that in the recording with his brother and sister, and that recording is absolutely beautiful (and IMHO superior to the Lucky St version with just him singing it)

  • I need that hat!

  • My father had a heart attack at three a.m. this morning, and I have listened to this song over and over since the anmbulance left, and I won't stop until I know that he is okay.

  • I like this better than the origanal

  • all time favorite singer/poet guy!

    this guy is awesome. i hope i can play kinda like him one day.

  • R.I.P. daddy. you'll forever be my father no matter what. i love you so much!!! 10.14.45 - 09.27.09 the 14 years i had you were amazing and i love you so much!!!

  • Dang! his pants are tight!

  • @hctigers32 but they work :)

  • My Dad Commited Suicide on November 23, 2010. This song makes me cry every time i hear it. I sang it for him on the anniversary last week. I wish I could see my dad one last night and tell him I love him and get to say goodbye. I wish i could hug him.

  • His mom was one of my teachers. He's my best friend's cousin, and I met him when one of his aunts died and he came to visit. Really nice guy, and really supportive of me trying to achieve a musical career. Can't wait to meet him again.

  • i like this better then the original

    jason lancaster has the most amazing voice in this world!

  • The chorus reminds me so much about Mayday Parade :S

  • @andy17guitar the lead singer of go radio used to be the lead singer of mayday parade. hes also the lyricist so sounding like mayday parade isnt really avoidable

  • in the past month i know three people who lost their mom or dad. i give props to whoever lost a parent. they are so strong. i dont know what i would do if i lost a parent.

  • I wish i had a father that meant this much to me..

  • My girlfriend father passed away yesterday. He committed suicide and my girl was the first to find the suicide note. If I would have arrived at the house a few minutes after I did I could of died from Carbon Monoxide poisoning. This song just reminds me how lucky I am to not have died from what her dad did, I promised her I would always be there for her and that what I plan. I'm never going to let myself or her leave like her dad did.

  • this song is on repeat. by far one of the most amazing songs, goes to show how no-one will be around forever so make each moment last..

  • this hit me hard

  • how could this song have any dislikes? this song always hits me...

  • i cant stop staring at his lips..

  • My dad passed away on December 26th, 2008. My birthday is December 27th, so it was possibly the worst day that it could have happened for me. This song made me cry for the first time in a while about my dad. It's now become my go to song when I think of my dad.

  • @USCxGamecocks Im so sorry. <3 

  • @USCxGamecocks Tell me about it. My father passed away Oct 26th 2008, my 1 year anniversary with my (now fiance and wonderful mother of our daughter) is Oct 27th. It's shitty when it happens that way. This song definitely strums a chord. Best thing you can do is to just let it go. I went months and months without letting it out, sat back with a bottle and this song, and it came out in abundance.

  • @USCxGamecocks It's my go to song when I think about my dad as well. <3 d;:

  • Ive replyed to this song 3 times before this. And I always say the same thing. Ive know I should love my dad, and ive tryed the hardest I can. Its just hes everything I hate and dipise and he doesnt help it. And I can tell by the way he looks and talks to me that he truly wishes for the day I move out. Im good at reading people with one look and the sadesst part is Ive hear him say it to my brother. It hurt like hell to learn that that true. I cry myself to sleep everyday since i learnd it

  • i grew up without a father, but this song absolutely touched me deeply. Such an amazing song from an amazing group

  • my dad died on christmas 2007, this song means the world to me. I wish I could just give jason a hug, I know what it's like.

  • Such a beautiful song.

  • My two best friends lost there step father a few years back he was shot they cry ever time they here this song they never knew there "real father".

  • Just bawled my eyes out...So much meaning. Such a great song and so much talent. <3

  • Wow this band is so amazing almost every one of there songs give me chills, there so much meaning in each one its crazy!!!

  • his voice at 1:14 is when i started crying, the way he said "so proud" really hit home. this whole song is absolutely incredible and so heartfelt. there's so much meaning behind this song. absolutely incredible!

  • This song helped me with grieving when my dad died. Jason Lancaster helped me alot, and I love Go Radio. Amazing song, so true. You don't know how much your dad means to you until you lose him, so never take him for granted. I love you dad and miss you so much.

  • i love the way he says scared <3

  • i see my dad everyday, but we never say "i love you"...

  • @TheAwesomeKiller " i see my dad everyday, but we never say 'i love you' ... " = You're as distant with your dad as we are.. maybe not physically but emotionally.

  • So beautiful... bawling my eyes out right now haha... I've always loved Go Radio and Jason but this connects to a whole nother level...Me and my dad have been drifting the past couple years and I have trouble trusting him. This song and your comments have made me realize how lucky I am to have him here. He is not perfect, but like someone else said, he is MY dad <3

  • i love my dad so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I have always wanted to be close to my dad but hes the kind of person I despise and I wish I didnt. I wish I loved my dad like Jason, but I just cant, and trust me Ive tryed my hardest. But he's everything I hate and despise. And he acts like Im a peace of shit he doesnt want near him even if he says the opposite. It always makes me cry to think about how much I hate him but dont want to. :'(

  • @SnowyBlackRose I feel exactly the same... Respect for writing my thoughts down... Thank you.

  • My dad is alive but is not in my life. he abused n neglected me. he refuses to be in my life. i started using drugs to hide the pain he caused me when i lived with him n nearly died 5 different times b.c of it. he saw me oding on the floor n left me there to die. i hate him for evrythng he did to me but there is nothin tht i want more than to hve him in my life. i want him to love me n be the dad i thought he was. i jst wnt him to care. im a 17 yr old girl tht wnts her daddy but he dsnt wnt me.

  • I just saw them last night for the 2nd time and they are so amazing live! (:

  • shit whens the last time i even gave my dad a hug....

  • @atz4 same here bud

  • Love you daddy, never forget you. R.I.P. July 6th 2008..

  • my father passed may 11, 2001 im 18 now and would give absolutly anything just to hear his voice one more time. to see him standing there for even a minute to see if hed be proud of the man i turned out to be. or just be proud of me..

  • anybody know how big his lobes are?

  • @DavidBowieRocksHard

    7/8ths I believe

  • @JessiDenae thanks. its like the perfect size haha

  • Its amazing to think that Jason, along with his brother and sister were able to create this song as a family - and sing it about their father.

    REAL MUSIC.

  • give your dad a hug tonight for those of us who can't.

  • @bobownzyou he doesn't deserve one

  • @bobownzyou amen, 

  • absolutely beautiful.

  • It gives me chills when he says: "And I'll be saving jars for this one".

  • wowwwwww

  • I get chills every time I listen to this song. It's so amazing.<3

  • That's sad and sweet! My dad is alive but it's like he's dead because a see him like once a week because I'm always home when he's not and when he is I'm hone doing other thing he defenetly not a great dad but I'm defenetly not a great daughter and I know it

  • @SnowyBlackRose i feel the same way, but i'm the worst son in the world, and he's part of the blame. things are not always goldplated, and that's how i cope with life.

  • Tomorrow will be two years since my Dad died, and this song makes me appreciate the time that I did get to spend with him. I wasn't the best daughter, and he wasn't the best Dad, but he was MY Dad, and I miss him everyday. Love you Daddy <3

  • Fathers have always been taken for granted but this song just shows us how important they are and how we all love them more then we say. Mothers you are great and taken for granted but now a days the fathers a taken for granted even more! WE love you Dad!

  • This reminds me of someone out there named Danny. Thank you for giving me such a beautiful song like this. I miss you. :')

  • i always get so tingly when i watch this. truly heartfelt and inspirational :)

  • nice song..

  • :')

    

  • i'm a guy and i broke down after listening to this. we tend to take our fathers for granted.

  • @onerunaway Very well put. I can barely make it through the song.

  • these guys are either wayyy underrated or just unknown...

  • I told my dad the other day i had his funeral song ready, he didn`t seem to happy tho!!

    

  • @Terryelpistole9 i have done the same exact thing. Same response!

  • every time i get freaking chills!!

  • anyone know where i could get tabs for this version?

  • -333333333333. come to fucking sydney.

  • you can tell how much this song means to him by his expressions. he's holding back tears. i saw an interview where he said its so hard for him not to cry while singing this. there is so much heart in this song.

  • I could listen to this over & over again.<3

  • @0728jordan true that <333 its a great song

  • If this song doen't bring tears to your eyes, then you must not have a soul. Beautiful job Jason. I'm sure your father is extremely proud of you right now.

  • Dang i dont know what to say.

  • 3 people dont have a soul

  • i like more this version

  • This song hits harder than any other song I've heard

  • @reptaryay, ahah alright :)

  • @reptaryay, well it wasn't directed at anyone,and it's posted on this acoustic version, so one can only assume ...

  • @shannondempseyful im gonna call him and ask :)

  • @reptaryay, there's definitly a Bm somehwere in there, and what looks like some sort of a variation on an a chord on the verse.

  • @shannondempseyful i was talking more about finger position than chords, so if it is tuned differently that would still be subject to change but i was talking about more the piano song...

  • 3 people are pissed they are deaf and can't hear this beautiful song.

  • Youtube should have a loop button..

  • @pandadidyourmom type repeat after youtube in your url and it'll lead you to youtube repeater

  • @iamthegreatest1 thanks :)

  • Youtube should have a loop button..

  • Drop C tuning...this is Go Radio, not the new Attack Attack.... how the hell did u conclude dropped c... 99%...u have terrible odds.

    C, F,(F/C), A minor, G...just repeats, now go sing your heart out.

  • @reptaryay because its dropped c...try it and see for yourself....it sounds a ton better than just playing the normal chords and as i said im playing the same positions he is playing...

  • Wasnt expecting to get 31 thumbs up :), thanks for them tho lol....

  • i don't know why people even attempt covering go radio songs. something about jason's voice can't be lived up to. they're all just setting themselves up for failure.

  • @erinnkrausz and jonny craig

  • words cannot express.

  • :'? i dont know whether to cry tears of sadness or of joy

  • Honestly, it took me fifteen seconds of listening to this to start absolutely bawling. I can't get through this song without crying, but honestly, I don't mind. Jason Lancaster said what I couldn't with this song. And I sorta love him for that.

  • I love how his eyes are closed for all but 12 seconds of this video. You can easily tell the words are coming from the heart.

  • Everytime I listen to this song I have to call my dad right after.. Love you dad, wish you were here with me.

  • does it sound like heartbreak to anyone else when he says "so proud.." at 1:13?

  • wow this is a deep song, i wanna play this at my stepdads funeral when he dies, just because hes not my biological father he is my dad and i wouldnt be the man i am today without him

  • 3 dislikes!? 3 persons without heart!

  • Its Zach band Dan and Jason, I remember when all of this was goin on at the garnet and gold warehouse. Miss you Dan... you guys are so talented

  • how can anyone dislike this? those 3 people should just explode, because his voice is just pure awesomesauce! but those 3 people must like that autotune shit, that can make anyone good. GO RADIO FOR LIFE.

  • i have to say 5 seconds of summer (callum & luke) did a pretty good cover of this for 2 high school kids.

  • PUT THESE ACOUSTIC VERSIONS ON ITUNES STAT!!!!!!!!

    (and yes, all caps = me screaming)

  • I love him. Amazing

  • I just met them. They are amazing.

  • 3 people are fucking idiots
