  • I danced to this song in my recital and it brought me to tears because I can't dance anymore:((((( :,,,(

  • I dedicate this song to Tommy, the most loving, caring, devoted father I know. His daughters are 6 & 13. Two months ago Tommy was working on the gutters when he fell three stories & passed away. I know if he was still here, he would make this their song. Rest in peace forever Tommy, it's just not the same without you. I know that you knew it wouldn't be like that for long, & you loved your baby girls more than anything in the entire world.

    R.I.P. <3

I have all his songs on my ipod (thanks to my wonderful brother) but i had no idea what darius rucker looked like, heck i dont know what 75% on my ipod look like if they dont have a picture on the album cover. But i did not know he was black i feel so bad for assuming country singers were only white. With that said i love his songs especially "This". And i apoligize for being so naiive and flat out dumb

  • @BluePuppy133 Just like in drunk driving cases, the drunk is never hurt but the innocent are killed. I'm sorry about your friend and her brother.

  • this song makes me so sad idk y:(

  • I'm crying my eyes out thinking about my cousin & her family as they sit in a Rehabilitation Hospital in Morgantown, WV with their 18 yr. old daughter who suffered brain damage after her lung collapsed from severe pnuemonia. I watched as her father ( a big, strong man) softly caressed & kissed his daughters' head as she lay there on life support. It was one of the saddest & yet , most touching things I"ve ever seen. I hope that it won't be like this for long for them! God love them!!

  • He can rock Hootie & the Blowfish.. and solo <3

  • None should ever judge people how they sing when they don't sing the sterotyped gene of music nor should some be judged by what they sing :) <3 you, Darius!

  • I saw my best friend get married to this song. His bride waltzed with his daughter to this song. I cried like a MAN!

  • @bjlietzan Sorry. What I meant to say was his bride waltzed with her father to this song.

  • First heard Darius on the soundtrack of Shallow Hal. I've been a fan every since then...amazing writer and singer! Still hoping to run into him here in Charleston!

  • This reminds me of my Dad, my Mom would be the parent at the door with the shotgun but my Dad would be the one to cry if me or my Sister got married.

  • I have to keep reminding myself this, because I need to cherish every moment that I have. My brother picked me up from school one day, and he was a senior in high school, and he told me to enjoy middle school now, because it wouldn't be like this for long. Yes, he used those words,and he said high school is just gonna fly by, so hang on to these times.

  • @muzicscientist NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE, JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE ALL UNDERSTAND WHERE COUNTRY MUSIC, BLUES, JAZZ, SOUL GOSPEL, AND ROCK AND ROLL ORIGINATED FROM. SO, ANYWAY ITS NICE TO SEE ALL PEOPLE SING WHAT THEY LOVE. WITHOUT HATERS... AV

  • @muzicscientist Dude.... Wtf is up with the caps. Who cares anyways, just listen to the music and stop bringing race and color into stuff. People like you are so annoying to me, No offence.

  • @muzicscientist Dude.... Wtf is up with the caps. Who cares anyways, just listen to the music and stop bringing race and color into stuff. People like you are so annoying to me, No offence.

  • @varial05 I BELIEVE A HATER IS ON BOARD! GET OVER IT WOMAN, STOP WYNING... MOVE ON ALREDY. ITS SILL TRUTH.!!!

  • @muzicscientist Lol...As I said before, you need to calm yourself. Also, its spelt wining, and already. I can't stand reading what you type beCAUSE I FEEL LIKE YOUR FUCKIN YELLING LIKE THIS!!!!! LALALA WHEN I READ CAPS IT IS SO LOUD IN MY HEAD AND IS A MONOTONE!

  • @varial05 It's not actually wining, it's whining. Just saying that if you're going to correct grammar, you should probably spell check.

  • @illberapping nothing wrong with that

  • [iminent=zkwbgAgUWfOB]

  • I love this song sooooo much!!!!!!!!!!! It make feel like just the other day I was in kinder-garden playing outside and today I was standing on the stage to graduated High School. I'm 19 and graduated in the Class of 2011 you don't know fast time goes until your holding your high school diploma.

  • This is a good song

  • I want to conduct an experiment to see which of the following four songs is the strongest about children growing up: "It wont be like this for long" Darius Rucker,

    "You're gonna miss this"- Trace Adkins, "Tough Little Boys"- Gary Allen "There goes my life"- Kenny Chesney. all of them are great songs! But I wanna know what other people think, what do you think is the best of them?

    I will be posting this comment to the other 3 songs on youtube, hit like if you vote for this song. thanks

  • love this song

  • This song reminds me of Jesus Take the Wheel. Like the tune, kind of.

  • this song kinda kills me, i know its about him being a dad, but im 17 and i mean it sucks about growing up, before to long ill be telling my grandkids about 9/11. Growing up sucks, So love life, and do anything to be happy, my ex died last year from overdose, and i live everyday missing her, dont be stupid guys. i love her.

  • He's better than most white country singers ..... he's got the soul of country music in the lyrics I like this.

  • This song makes me want to be a dad

  • Listening to this while i hold my 4 day old son. I never used to cry when listening to music... what the hell is happening to me!?!?!?!?!

  • @casualphan ....did alot of that myself....shows just how human you are. Mine are now 24, 23, and a pair of 19 y/o girls.....Bank on doing that often.

  • @casualphan haha thats awsesome. listen to "with arms wide open" by creed, might have the same effect on you!

  • @casualphan Fatherhood =D

  • @casualphan your soul is talking to you that's all

  • Comment removed

  • I loove this song<3:) I saw him in concert like 1 or 2 monthes ago......:)

  • Love it reminds me of my mom even though he sings of his dad my mom was there for me more then anyone

  • Don't read this because it actually works. You will get kissed on the nearest possible Friday by the love of your life. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. If you do not post this comment on three videos you will die in two days. No, you've already started reading so don't stop. This is scary. Put this on five videos in the next 143 minutes. When you are done Press F6 and your lovers name will appear on your screen in big letters. This is scary cuz it actually works.

  • you know, this song really gets me, growing up with a dad that didnt give a shit and just recently decided he was done with me all together, my boyfriend, and bestfriend for years now, his dad has been like a dad to me, hes taken me in and truly loved me and treated me like his own, and it broke my heart to find out yesterday to find out that my boyfriends parents are deciding to divorce, they were the only happy family id ever seen to stay together, it made me hopeful, such a shame. :/

  • This song makes me cry

  • Darius has a great taste for song lyrics and will be a huge crossover artist right about ... now. Nice song...

  • @rickr442 Ha ha Darius had a successful pop career in the early 90's. Very successful. But he found his place in country.

  • LOVE this song....... it has a great msg.

  • GREAT SONG

  • i wish i had a desent dad

  • I love this song!

  • I love this song. It makes me wish my children had a decent father that loved them. I love them so much and they deserve so much better than I can give them alone.

  • 95% percent of people don't realize country music relates to life and the way things really are in the world today. I'm only 17 and know that but i guess some people don't pay attention to the world around them anymore its all about where's the next party and stuff like that i was raised in a house were i was forced to grow up i pay the bills when my dad cant i put gas in his truck so he can find a job and this song has taught me one thing enjoy life while you can

  • Im gonna dance to this with my dad at my wedding :) it makes me cry vecause i know its all true

  • Why did critics hate this? I think its' beautiful. And very true.

  • how sad :( we young teenagers don't know how much our parents love us sometimes..

  • i love this song:) before eighth grade promotion i started crying in my dads arms because everytime i get older i feel i lose him:(

  • @kayla85388 Being a dad myself, I'm sure he feels the same way. Cherish every moment with him because time wastes away too fast.

  • theres no lyrics

  • @themadhatterisme downbar!!!!

  • he shouldve never left the blowfish hes okay as solo artist but the band was great. another selfish artist

  • @dexterferrell That is harsh... Why should he stay where he does not want to be? He should pursue his own interests. How about you think about the things you have done because YOU wanted to do it...does that make you selfish?

  • @dexterferrell People grow, change directions in life, mature - you will too someday.

  • I love this song!!! <3

  • This song is amazing! It wont be like this for long:)
