  • /watch?v=xqVa1tu2Hx0 RSBot-253 Paid scripts included!

  • beautiful message!!

  • I love this video its basically saying don't worry and live your life because its too short to spend worrying about money, your looks, or anything just work with what you got. I saw this in highschool several years ago when it came out and at that age it has an amazing impact on you.

  • i never heard anything about making sacrifices to stop evil, its a very materialistic view, i dont see anything inspirational in looking beautiful and not worrying about anything at all

  • existe tambien el video con subtitulos espanoles?

  • outra coisa: "the race is long but in the end it's only with yourself" = a corrida eh longa e no fim das contas eh contra vc mesmo. totalmente diferente do significado da traducao....

  • queria bem saber quem foi o genio q traduziu "floss" como "relaxe". A proposito, usem filtro solar! e fio dental!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • reality check anyone! a beautiful outline of what matters, this makes me calm.

  • i absolutely loved dis....it makes u charish ur youth and makes u think wut ull think bout wen u get older...loved it

  • I encourage you to masturbate. It might loosen you up a little bit. It's not a bad thing. In fact it's healthy. It might just be good enough advice to include in this poem/song thing.

  • Masturbation FTW. I mean seriously, yeah, it's healthy, enjoyable... and you don't need to rely on anyone else for it!

  • You are reading way too much into his words. Besides masturbating is healthy and normal.

  • no you idiot, its about self image and and self esteem, being comfortable in your own skin is necessary for confidence which I believe is instrumental to success in life.

  • =/ you guys are so rude and disrespectful!! jerks. -.- your proably just old 30 year olds with now lifes because you have nothing beter to do that flame good videos.... =p

    Have your Mom change your diapers and put you down for a rest. You are are just way too cranky!

  • i have herd this 1000 of times all old people love because it reminds them of the past

  • Well... The narrator doesn't sound Australian...

  • It's a boy singing, not a girl.

  • Baz Luhrmann... He is the narrator!

  • Wikipedia says:

    The "Wear Sunscreen" speech is narrated by Australian voice actor Lee Perry.

  • That is right. He is Australian. I saw him interviewed.

  • i thought he was from texas

    might be rong though

  • He trained his voice to sound like the accent he is using in this piece.

  • I listen to this song when I need to come back to reality. Been stuck with me for a long time! Awesome.

  • This song makes you think.

  • there is a very nice message in this song

    being young myself i don't think i get it fully now. I like this message but this song has no beat and bad music.

    love

    ALISON

  • Baz Luhrmann is a prophet! This song is brilliant.

  • This song teaches about life and it makes me think about what really is importnant in life. It makes me want to enjoy today, live for the momement, yet grow closer to my family. This song is weird, but it's true, and i enjoy listening to it hearing life lessons from people who have experienced stuff like this.

  • who sings/is saying this.

    i want to learn more.

  • Dang..

    This reallyy makes yooh think.

    Real Tawwkk...

    Makes yooh thinkk about..ery thingg we (young ladies and gentlemen) are scared to face because we know.... they are true.

    Mayb we should learn from things like this...

    But then again...what would be the fun in that?? But Wouldnt it make it kinda better?

    Idk. Lol. (:

  • Perfect... true,... life is not easy, specially when we don't pay attention in what happens around us.. this video is full of hard reality.

  • Maravilhoso!

  • Wasn't this a poem Buz set to music? I remember when I heard it on the radio.

    Here's what I found on the web: Home > Commencements > MIT?

    LISTEN: Kurt Vonnegut has spoken at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He may use sunscreen. This particular advocacy of sunscreen goes back to a June 1, 1997 column written by Mary Schmich for the Chicago Tribune. Somehow the column was separated from Schmich and attributed to Vonnegut.

  • the best video evver.

    everythings TRUEEEE he says.

  • sunScreen

  • i love this song i mean it just touches you and it tells you the importance of life and not to care too much about the little things love it!!!!!

  • we had that song for our class song 2001 I cant believe I finished college now and I am doing my masters with a baby and a wife life past so fast I am 25 now loool count down for 30 loool I need to start working out so I dont get fat by the time I am 30

  • This moved me. I'm so glad I found this again.

  • What a true song, in the cracks of life we have, this song fills all of those cracks, even though we try so hard, maybe we don't try enough. This song says it all.

  • This video gives meaning to a life that has none. Only a fool tries to light a glowlamp he can't even see.

  • better than to sit in darkness aimlessly surely notme12434?

    How does the video give meaning to life? It gives advice on how to improve your perspective on life...

  • " Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than its worth. "

    - straight from the video. So maybe, if you like this video so much, you should take its disclaimer (above) to heart, too. This 'advice' is just 'garbage'.

    My advice is to open your eyes and realize how blind you really are.

  • thats not what it means btw, what it means is advice lettin people learn from ur mistakes, mayb if u werent tryin 2 give it all the hard up broody act u would see that!!! think before u speak

  • Likewise. My advice to you: Proofread. My advice to myself: Don't bother with mattmason04. He can't spell, let alone interpret a line as deep as, "Advice is a form of nostalgia".

  • Why should I openmy eyes if I am blind? Pointless wouldn't you say?

    btw I don't listen to this very often...I've listened to it about three times but I just think that maybe your being a little pessimistic maybe? If we all lived life with your outlook we'd all be in the dark with our eyes closed. :)

    Take Care

  • P.S love your reply mattmason04 lol

    Perhaps you should excuse my positive outlook and perhaps even my naivity...I'm only 17, maybe someday (If I'm REALLY lucky) I'll share your outlook ;)

  • SHIT! Now I've gone and overused 'maybe' once too many times and spelt 'naivety' incorrectly. Never mind

    I must be incredibly bored to still be on here!

    Are you not going to bother with me either now notme12434?

  • Nope, not me, notme12434.

    Actually, I have quite a positive outlook. Just, as a philosopher who has recently worked on the problem of skepticism, I've taken to testing for the reactions to pessimism (of the 'borderline-angry' variety) on the general public-- on the blogs beneath self-help/inspirational videos, evidently. My colleagues got quite a kick out of you folks. ...Sick of the youtube emails at this point, myself.

  • That's the same as asking why a person should open their mouth if they're mute.

    It was an intended oxymoron, and it made perfect sense in the context.

  • lol I was just giving a different perspective...I know it makes sense in context, just trying to exemplify how negative his outlook was by making those oxymorons into something more literal, if you see... :)I'm not that silly

  • Ah. Got it. Kind of. I forgot what we were all talking about.

  • Perspective on life has a great impact on the life itself.

    Whether you light that unseen lamp or not, it won't give you light.You'll still be sitting in darkness "aimlessly".

  • is it odd this song gives me a kind of... nostalgic depression?

    Eh maybe i take a few lines too much to heart.

  • its a classic song! enjoy

  • who is the person giving the speach ?

  • Baz Lurhman

  • ronald ragan

  • terminator, kidding on i dont know but the words are insperational! :)

  • Do domething everyday that scares you. Great advice!!!!

  • ive been tryng that, its alot harder to do than you would think lol

  • Absolutwly amazing. I heard this on the radio just this morning, and I knew it had to be favorited before I forgot it.

  • i remember this tune..Forward this to all your friends....good advice

  • I just stumbled upon this accidently, and am so glad I did. After hearing a few specific lines out of that, I feel like I can breathe a little easier again. :]

  • What's with all the I'm crying comments...? Sure it's a great song but ease up. I may be reading comments from young people who get gelled up by just about anything, anyways, it's an awesome tune but slow up on the tissue. When the brother and sister lyrics are brought in...that rocks. Baz is the boss!

    Take care

  • I was so happy to find this song. LOL It made me cry but good tears.
