  • love this song so so much!!!!

  • i just love this song and lyrics :) i can sing this !!!

  • We are exceptions DEVORE504... Your attitude isn't far from our age group. Stupid and can't be told anything.

  • Its a shame that we dont take advantage of the greatest resource we have at our exposure as we trek thru this journey called life and that would be the experience and wisdom of grandma and great-grandma aka "big mama. I really miss the love and blessing these women were in my life. Big mama once told me, "very few of us are victims but usually participants in our own misery

  • how could you dislike this......???? This????? Very Touching and comforting if you are going thru a loss....Thanks for posting!!

  • i use o listen to this song when i was younger and it also makes me think about my "granny" that's what we all called her r.i.h. DELORES FAYE WILLIAMS i miss and love u very much

  • You cut this? SHAME!!!

  • Happy Birthday to the best Grandma in the entire world Delores Homer. I love and miss you dearly. I can't explain how much you meant and still mean to me. This song reminds me of u and it brings back so many memories. You were an amazing woman..

    love always your Granddaughter Chakeya Homer (you know all of your grands and great grands feel the same way) -3 -3 -3

  • I suddenly lost my grandmother 3 days ago (11/29/11). I thank you so much is video because I don't see any other posting of actual music video. I need this ride now. Thanks again!

  • wow...you are right..what can we say....

  • I never had relationships with my grandmothers as one was far away an the other died before my time. So my memories exist in my mothers eyes an stories told to me from my auntie for she was close to being a grandmother when I read everyone elses moments.One thing I do know is compared to now they were truely better days.

  • Classic music! I so wish we could return to the days when music had a meaning, you could listen to the words and relate. This song brings back so many memories of my grandmother. My mother is 81 years old and she always say's 'my bones will be bleaching in my grave and you will remember me saying... ' Cherish your family and your elders, don't take anyone for granted.

  • --....the gen X, gen Y, don't understand what we baby boomers have known for decades! You have to be patient. Grandparents have a wealth of knowledge that most youths can't grasp. You want to know your history?..you want to be successful?...talk to your grandparents.

  • @63weezer i am 23 so i am a part of that gen that u don't think know anything and sorry but that's not true about all of us please stop putting us all in one group thank you

  • @devore504-- You may be self aware,but much of your generation is not(at least the people that make it to the media). Maybe those people are chosen to show how clueless & intellectually limited the genX,genY are. Doesn't that concern you?? Does it concern you that your generation is referred to knowing nothing about recent or current events??...knowing nothing of history??

  • Grandma is the glue to the family because when she's gone it can easily fall apart (for some families). Cherish the knowledge you can get from a grandparent, you'll never know when their time comes. I miss my grandmother alot and I wish she were here to hold my son. Love her dearly..miss her much <3

  • R.I.P Mom Mom!. iThink of you whenever ihear this!. 03.21.11

  • I love my grandmother's!

  • Remembering my grandmother, Lola Gloria Frantilla Segundera on her 100th birthday (Nov. 9, 1911)... miss our times together when I was a child...

  • I like the song, but why the hard scene transition at 2:04-2:08 LOL

  • @Supachamploo08-- The quick cuts were used in order keep up with the timing of the song. You can only have so many smooth editing transitional shots. I hope that helps. : )
