  • I just burried my sister the week before thankgiving and her 13 yr old daughter requested to play this song at her funeral. in a way this song was appropriate.I know some of how she was feeling is described in the song.2 of Her 3 children feel like they did something wrong. Her 13 yr old feels like she couldve done something to help her. Her 6 yr old just feels mostly bad for her mom. She struggled with allot of things and decided to take her life.

  • @CBMGLALG2011 so sorry for your loss!!

  • I know this song is about drinking and driving...but...to me...it has a different meaning....My son, Joey, 28 yrs old. came back from Afghanistan a few yrs ago so different...wants nothing to do w/ his family. I think...like the song...what if i would of done this or that...Joey I'm so sorry...can you hear me?

  • @tlc0041 im so sorry

  • so sad. brings back memories of me not winning the cake walk in 3rd grade. never quite got over it.

  • with all i have left in my very last breath i will call your name <3

  • Sad. Brings back horrible memories of my nephew's death -

  • this song makes me think of my ex boyfriend

  • False. This song is a dramatization and not an acutal event. Jennifer did NOT experience any of the events in the song. Sugarland was interviewed on the song lyrics of Joey on CMT and the song was a combination of Sugarland and Bill Anderson's lyrical vaults in which they came up with a story not a true occurence.

  • when you listen to the lyrics carfully it all makes sence): omg this soo sad but still an amazing song!

  • Sounds like someone locked her in the trunk for cheating and she is trying to make him feel guilty.

  • Who wrote this song? I have heard a couple of different things, that Jenn wrote it for an ex, that it was writtern by Jenn and Kristian about a news story they saw, and that it is a remake of another bands song. What's the truth? They do an incredible job regardless, but I really want to know..

  • i love this song

  • used to love this song sooooooo  much but now that i know the meaning it is sad and now when i listen to it like the lyrics they make perfect sense :'(

  • @ahockeysis21 how could you NOT know the meaning of this song when its obvious!!!!!!!???

  • @Angelskittls420 i dont know no need to freak out.

    i guess i didnt listen to it that close. geze

  • I love this song, but it is just so sad

  • i think she's a better singer and looks better here than in her song Stuck Like Glue :P

  • love this song its very sad

  • @deanna291000 seriously it is

  • My son told me my ex wife sings this all the time at the top of her lungs, She eded our maraige almost 3 years ago, My name is joey! I cried! so much of the song fits, I threw our keys one night that was pretty much the end! 3 years and I still hurt and want to cry when I see her... True love i guess, I miss her!

  • who the fuck is joey?

  • @AILDdrums I'm Joey lol

  • @JoJoItPo

    me too, hah

  • I miss my Joey... He didn't die or anything... I just miss him, and I saw this song... and it made me think of him <3

  • I LOVE JOEY!!!!!!

  • I miss my Joey.. he didn't physically die, but something inside of him did.. :< This song makes me tear up for two reasons. 1. My friend's girlfriend's best friend died last night from an accident..

    2. "What if we never fell in love?" it reminds me that if we didn't fall so deeply in love, would it hurt so bad, the emotionally dying? Side note- I'm so sorry for giving up when I swore I wouldn't.

  • I've posted this before, but it reminds me of my Joey....I saw him that day, I saw the motorcycle, I told him dont get on that thing and he said dont worry auntie I wont, my mom's already bitched at me for it.......who would have thought that within hour's he would be Dead.....The heart break of loseing a child is undiscribable.....the pain never ease's..I love you Joey, I love you so much baby boy....my little "Jo-gee", my heart is so broken for you ...............

  • @bellsca1917 Wow, you made me cry,,,I'm so sad for your loss.

    My brother died while on duty in the Navy Seals 27 yrs. ago & I stiil think of him & miss him every day.

    And then I realize the loss my mom must have felt.

    May your pain lessen with time & may you find a way to find peace.

    God bless you & know that my prayers go out to you & all moms that suffer such a loss.

  • One of Sugarland's best songs ever and i feel like outside of Sugarland fans, no one has ever heard it :(

  • @tharman13 it acctually mean that he proposed to her and she said no, and shes going through all the things that could have changed this, like if they had gone slower or faster, or if they had broken up, so shes naming the things that could have changed the outcome

  • i always say "josey, I'm soo sorry"

    cause we use to actually be good friends, but now he hates me :(

  • i always interpret it as he (joey) went out drinking and driving and died...and she's questioning what would've happened if she'd have went out, instead of stay in?!

  • Comment removed

  • i forgive you.

  • joey you didnt die in vain this song is for you and your all in our prayers cuz if she sings about you you must have had to have been one hell of a good person :)

  • Only the good die young

  • countrygirls9 if you listen to the song good enough it tells you exactly wat happens to joey, and she is soory because she didnt do anything to stop him and that she didnt go with him to keep him safe

  • does anyone kno what happened? did he have a car accident??? Ys she sorry?? i like this song though!! lol

  • Did anyone notice the girl in the middle in the back looks like the girl from the grudge??? lol

  • I didn't notice it until just now but omfg yeah it does. Eeeep.

  • I never heard of sugarland one year ago. all that is different now. what a magnificent voice jennifer has. wow. proof there is a God. she is out of this world. so so wonderful. I can't describe it.

  • Omg i just love sugarland,i could listen to jennifer nedles all day long and never get tired of her voice. This song is so powerful,all of there songs are just outstanding. I love them!

  • Can anyone answer this? Why in this song there is 3 people, so i thought there where 3 people in the band. But now there is only 2? So where did the third one go?

  • she quit for some reason i dont quite know why

  • Heart breaker...

  • My guess, they'd gone out drinking, but earlier she'd gotten an offer to go chill with her friends, and like..out of her love for him, she ended up going with him, and instead of going left, they took a right, and a drunk driver hit them, and he ended up dying, and she blames herself. (I said and Alot.)

  • biiiiiig tune

  • ARES

  • joey is a real person!! Joey was her boyfriend who she said went out one night because she didnt want to and he got killed in a car crash...now she is singing to him

  • This song is amazing, and Joey is no one, but the point of the music is to show that anyone can die at any moment for any given reason. Also if you don't like soemthing, don't comment, you have the right, but by being mean you are showing that you have no respect for anyone else, and in my opinion you just need to kinda shut up thus you deserve all the eman comments back cause all you want is the attention now.

  • does anyone know where i can download this free without being a member of the site?

  • limewire

  • @cowmooo333 lime wire is illegal

  • frostwire

  • lime wire

  • lmao agreed

  • then why are you listening to her songs? it doesn't make sense.

  • is that everyones comeback? i have the right to watch, comment and rate videos. this song is ANNOYING and so is sugerland.

  • it's not a comeback, it's just common sense. i just don't understand why people watch videos then leave comments that are mean.

  • its the truth. if you dont agree with my comment then F off. if i dont like the video, i have the right to say i dont.

  • whatever. if you're going to be immature like that, then why am i even wasting my time? bah.

  • ive questioned that the whole time. if YOU were mature youd respect my opinion too.

  • This is a really good song!

  • this song is so annoying but she is a hell of a singer.

  • This song brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it and I don't even know why. I think everyone can relate to this song in one way or another.

    My condolences to those who can relate to this maybe a little too closely.

  • I lost my husband in February. He had a snowmobile accident, it was night and he missed a left turn. This song gives me chills. It's amazing. My husbands name wasn't Joey but I can put his name in in it's place.
