Matt Brouwer - Better Days (Goo Goo Dolls Cover)

[nontypicalguy]

I'm so happy to hear that this song could be re-imagined as a Christmas song and is being played on Christian radio stations! This song, no matter who sings it, always brings me chills.

[mlp51284]

I think this is gonna be the next song I sing at Church... I really like this version

[kalikat88]

He stole it from the Goo Goo Dolls. they both do amazing jobs though! :)

[FORJESUS25]

@Gambit3896 I'm sure your way of speaking to the person that disliked this is dishonorable to GOD.

[joshleepatt2010]

What a great song.. makes me feel like there is hope still for this world



[MrJellyman300]

I don't know why, but I prefer this version over the original one.

[Gambit3896]

the 1 person who disliked can go f**k himself :)

[Gambit3896]

i never thought anyone could sing a cover of this song better than the goo goo dolls but this is superb. im absolutely amazed. pay attention the feelings you get while you listen to this song. truly amazing

[thatgirl4723]

this is good but i still think the Goo Goo Dolls version is better

[lovelife4ever4]

i love air1!!!!!! and i love them for showing me this song!

[123lovedovey]

I had a really tough week, lost a friend and was told that a divorce was near for my parents but as i was driving home this song came on and changed everything. Im an atheist but i really do love this song, it gives strength to anyone whether they are christan, muslim or an atheist. No matter who you are, we all need a song like this, a song that just makes you stop and relax and look forward to what is hopefully a bright future.

[JCdied4Uall]

@123lovedovey I will be praying for you if you want to know anything about why I believe in Jesus just ask.

[123lovedovey]

@JCdied4Uall i was a christian for 5years, i know the Bible rather well but thankyou anyways =)

[BBCROFT1]

@123lovedovey im glad you like this song but im trying to change you but what i believe is god sends things like this to you at the right moment so you know that he is there and is always by your side. but im glad you like the song it is good for upligting :)

[123lovedovey]

@BBCROFT1 Maybe thats true and maybe in a few years or months or days ill believe but i doubt it. I just go through hard times and when i do i drive and thats when i heard this song, thanks though. Glad god works for you.

[BBCROFT1]

@123lovedovey who says god wont work for you? i can tell you i have seen impact on people with god..

[123lovedovey]

@BBCROFT1 Ive seen people proclaim that god has changed their life as well, i know me though and i know that god just wont work out.

[thecheeseheads101]

just heard this on Air1..my new fav :)

[JCdied4Uall]

I have been listening to this song non stop! I loved it after hearing only the first three notes. I sat in my van just listening to it! Incredible song! I love the way he sings it!

[cavgurl07]

I heard this on Air 1 a few days ago and fell in love with it. So powerful and the pictures in this video are beautiful.

God bless!

[sambee12345]

So beautiful. I love this version and the Goo Goo Dolls version so much. It makes me so thankful for everything...especially my boyfriend. I almost cry, I have cried, listening to this before. I get the chills listening to it. I stopped playing GTA: San Andreas when this song came on..and I started to this about my bf..I am so thankful.<33

[Reaching555]

Woah, amazing song!! This version is haunting and Matt's vocal delivery is so honest and beautifully delivered!

[Sife888]

Im more of a hardcore or Screamo person but this is a good song :)

[robynsegg]

0:08 ... You just GOTTA love the Charlie Brown Xmas Tree! You just gotta! (But where's Linus' blanket to give it a little love??? lol!

[brentd]

"There was one poor child who saved this world, and there's 10 million more who fight to live" is what Matt sings. "...and there's 10 million more who probably could" is what the Goo Goo Dolls version says.

[roperkerby]

@brentd

i like what the goo goo dolls say more, its more risky and what not but i think it means more what the goo goo dolls say then Matt just taking the safe way out and saying what he did.

(we all have the power to do what christ did, we just dont do it)

[mcvergine21]

@roperkerby How do you see that? Only God could save us. And Jesus is God. Jesus is the one child. In all reality the goo goo dolls are the ones taking the "safe" way out. Not trying to start an argument.

[roperkerby]

@mcvergine21

Jesus calls us to be Like him, christian = christ like. Do i cliam to be the son of God, no. Will i Save the world from all damnation - highly doubt it. But god calls us to go on and do great things, unamaginable things - if we would only have the right faith to do it. People take for granted the strength inside of them and settle on what is good and dont push themselfs like christ called us to do.... If 1000 children desided to try to change this world drasticly today - they c

[roperkerby]

@mcvergine21

i ended that with "they could"

[DrvnBiThDsrInsd]

Makes me wonder what the goo goo dolls were singing about.

[lovesounds73]

I heard this song for the first time on Air1 radio station today. It's beautiful!

[saris093]

@lovesounds73 Haha, I just hear it on Air1 too, I love this song but I not sure which version is better Goo Goo Doll or this one, anything the song is beautiful!!

[MissTiff8003]

@lovesounds73 i love love love Air1 i was so glad there was an alternative christain radio station here

[Gambit3896]

@lovesounds73 thats where the rest of us heard it too haha
