  • My grampsy is 99 years old and I'm 13 I enjoy going to visit him in Ohio just to hear his stories about his life in World War 1 & 2. His wife died before I got to meet her. This song makes me sad because it's so sweet.

  • this song depresses me a little. im only 18, and people say oh you have time to be a kid, you have time to have fun, go out be crazy. ... but what noone understands is i dont have that time anymore, im pregnant, and im just trying to graduate. and get everything right before he/she comes. ik that now my life is gonna fly by. i know that im gonna blink my eyes and my time here will be gone.

  • check out my tribute to joe paterno!!!

  • i only got 36 years to live so far. More then my father had. I am already on borrowed time. Cherish your loved ones. Hope you are lucky enough to have good ones that you are close too.

  • when you only got 50 years to live because of mcdonalds!

  • Beautiful video. My FIL turns 100 in March of 2012. I have seen (and been in) his life for the past 45 years, and now my granddaughter is 17 and I see her coming up behind. Then I remember all that has happened in mine...this song is true..but you don't really see it until you have lived a little while and experienced ALL that life gives you..the joy AND the pain.

This video made me cry and I kind of want to grow up and when I know I am to die soon I just want to sit in my house and look at past pictures of my whole entire life then die knowing I had a good life and I lived it the way I wanted. :')

Reminds me of my grandad and the stories he used to tell, all the places he had visited and the life he lived. We'r only here for a short while, so have to hold on to the memories we have, because their one of the only things we keep with us until the end.

  • Your video is exceptionally well done.

  • We are only an age for a moment. At 29 I can't believe it would happen this quickly. I remember thinking at 21 the same thing. At 40 I suppose I'll have those very same thoughts. Life really is short.

  • Comment removed

  • the only thing im wondering about is in the description. You say "This video image is of a woman opening the palm of her hand, a man reaches to grab her hand." I was trying to look for that, but wasnt able to catch it. could you tell me where that is? lol

  • @yurfavoriteahmed i know i was looking for it too haha but its at 2:49

  • @Nemoloveyu lol, oh! hmm..but its for a split second and doesnt seem like it stood out enough for me to even mention. So I was like thinking of a more poignant image or a view that is obvious. but it was though to point it out, and not sure it was worth the mention you know? lol i completely blew by it like a 100 times! this video is great though still, the other images were much more powerful to me then that one hand flipping hehe. Thanks for replying to my comment!

  • IS this the actual video? or like a class project video that you created? Its extremely touching, and gave me quite a humble feeling. Idk how to explain it. Seeing how it was back then..so simple, no one tried to "stand out" like between (:48-1:00). Kinda wonder where these ppl are today. And, then that shot @ 1:20-21 was powerful, and finally 1:28-1:30..showing a pretty young couple carrying a child that they brought into this world. BEst way to describe this video engaging, powerful, humbling

  • I felt down because my friend died last year and this made my day it made me felt a million times better

  • Wonderful and moving.

  • nice song for your dream...

  • I alwaus cry when i hear this song. It really makes you think about life.

  • 100years or 10000000000000years

  • This song makes me cry, every time.

  • one of theeeee BEST musicians around....So glad there are still artists out there to inspire, admire....saw him for free...in Portland...some teens were goin crazy and he just encouraged their drive...wish we all had a dad or a mentor like you....please don't stop dispite the commerciality and crap...the world needs it!

  • that song good

  • The Pixar movie UP is also an intimate, touching study of aging ... it's a heart-warming watch!

  • This video is amazing! It made me cry! It really makes me think about life and what I've done and what I have yet to do. It also makes me think that I should just go with my heart insieat of caring about what other people think, which is always a problem for most teenagers like me. I love this video so much!

  • what movie is this from? after watching your video, i want to watch the movie you clipped. it looks like a great film

    Very well done. Treasure the time you have people.

  • Have YOU ever read the obituaries of some of the older folks that move on? I am always amazed at they have have done in their lives. Many of them have done countless things to improve our country. Remember, that "old person" was young once like you.

  • I never actually listened to the words of this song... ya I heard it so many time before... but wow... the words with the video really put life in perspective!

  • suicide the 21st of January. You will be missed Brandon♥. You never really think about this stuff until its too late. If you're reading this, it's not to late, no matter what you might think. Take this as a sign to change your life around, as I will. Have a good life everyone, maybe we'll meet at another age.

  • I'm 15 right now. Im lucky to have all four grandarents and one or two great grandparents. Its terrible but since my parents are divorced I don't keep intouch with the ones on my fathers side... But they're relatively young, late 50s. My beautiful grandmother is 65 with a weight problem and high blood pressure. This really puts things into perspective for me. I don't treat my family right and I need to change that, sometimes its less than 100. As in the case of my friend Brandon who committed

  • Dude my great grandmother raised me and said that I was the light of her life I lost her at age nine and was devastated. Wow you are the biggest ass hole ever and keep you're forked tongue behind you're teeth

  • @TheQSKiiNG aww.,we're sorry that this song offended your self-denied gay orientation. your father must have given you a hard time raping your tiny ass when you were stilla kid and so you wanted to do the same to other people. cause if you beleve your statement and it's a fact that people will grow older, then by your own argument, when you get old you'll be gay? oh ok., good luck with that and with molesting boys in the future cause obviously noone will marry you you sorry-ass fuckface.

  • @TheQSKiiNG your an idiot fag. im going to laugh when your old and no one loves you

  • I can only hope that the day i depart from this earth, as i take my last breath, i will be able to look back on my life satisfied with the person i was, satisfied with my life as a whole. My grandmother passed away in August and although it was a difficult time for my grandfather, my family, and I... i know that she gave all she had to the people she loved. That is what living is truly about. Live for the people you love and you can never go wrong.

  • Wow. I'm 16. This is like insane. I'm in high school haha it feels like I got the world by the balls

  • I can't help but cry watching this, I really wish I could go back in time and get to relive some of the things I did. If you're young, please please don't ever take your life for granted and soak up as much this life can give you as possible, good and bad!

  • the Filipinos that post are disgracefull..they dont know how to appriciate other people's works...athough im a Filipino, i cant tolerate that kind of attitude..sp what if the people's comment here are lame, at least they show whats in their hearts..hayzz some Filipino are so filty bastards and idiot like the one who make a bad comment in here....

  • this is a nice and touching song...im already 22 and it gets in my mind that is so good to live...i dont know if i have memories to bear but i just thought that i might do something to make worth living even if He gave me only 60 or 70 years to live...so that when the time comes for me to reminisce i can tell it is a worth living memories....

  • I think after watching this you might look at old ppl diffrently...

  • I'm from Indiana I want to go to the same college

  • this made me cry, wonderfully made :')

  • Dig the 30's-50's? teenagers lined up in couples. Wholesome!

  • @yasaier if this song is such a waste of your time, why bother to search it, maybe listen and then comment? that is a true waste of your time. not this song.

  • Death is only a gateway ahead of death there is more and that everlasting light would be great to share it with someone =)

  • Today in history many men lost their lives at Pearl Harbor, most of them young, not knowing that their lives were about to end God bless them, and God bless America

  • HERMOSO...Gran Video!

  • What is really sad is the fact most of us won't make it 'til 100 ... more than likely it will be cancer at 50, heart disease at 60, a stroke at 70, something else at 75, 80, 85.

  • I have loved this song for a long long time, and I have to say I think this video is PHENOMENAL! You are so talented, please continue to use this! I really enjoyed this video and I sent it to some people as well. Thanks for making this!

  • This is the song that got me listening to Five for Fighting.

    It is still one of my favorites and a lovely video put together by Stephaine.

    The shot of the young boy and grandad is poignant.

    I now have grandchildren myself and relate to this and the songs lyrics, if i heard this song in the 60's when i was 15 i wonder if it would have changed my outlook on life.

    Thanks John for the music

  • im 15 years old.this is a touching song this made me cry .im a girl

  • i work in a nursing home as a CNA and it is really sad to see how much they reminisce and wish they had more time :/ but alot of them are thankful to have had such a great long life, and there are some ADORABLE elderly couples that have been together for 50+ years, its so great :)

  • @axbeexrad26 I do agree. I lost my grandfather back in Feb. He was 88. He and my grandmother were six weeks shy of their 65th wedding anniversary. They had a great life together. Five kids and many many grandkids and great grandkids.

  • @axbeexrad26 Might not be your kinda singer, however take a listen to Barry Manilow's Living On Borrowed Time. Wow that one says it all and gets to me big time. He sings it with so much feeling live.

  • @axbeexrad26 Just thought I'd give you the correct title. It's We Live On Borrowed Time

  • I just love this song since I grew up so fast I did not really have time to relish my youth... I remind my children everyday to savor the moment and not to try to grow up too fast. I am surely not rushing them...

  • Getting old is the best part.

    What is the sad is when you don't take a lot of photos and don't live a righteously. Cause, then you just have regrets.

    hahah, Growing old with someone is great!

  • im 18 and love this song i believe there is someone for everyone =p

  • its a great song, but kinda depressing too lol

  • Beautiful.. 

  • beautiful.

  • i love this song even tho i cry everytime i hear it. this song was played at my neighbors memorial.. RIP DEB!!!!

  • Very hard to watch, I dunno who that man is but he looks almost exactly like my grandfather, before he got sick, before the nursing home, before he died. When he used to sit and tell us stories of the war, and of the way life used to be. Wonderful video, you did a great job at it!

  • soi dont want time to pass but i dont want it to stop either! SO FRUSTRATING

    makes me wanna cry sometimess...

  • love this song! the tune is incredible and the words really make you think about what it is to grow up. makes u look at life in a different way

  • I'm 14, about ready to enter high school in about a week. I've always liked story peopl, you know the kind who like to tell you about all the amazing things they've done in their lives. This video makes me cry-it's amazing! Like I said, I'm going to be an itty-bitty freshman, but this songs shows me I've got so much ahead of me, and I need to make every second worth it. When my life flashes before my eyes some day, I want to make it worth watching! Thank you so much!

  • @soccerchik151 you're only 14 and you have so much to say already...I can tell you are a good kid...good luck with you and I hope all your wish may come true.....

    no matter what happens...life is precious...hope you live life to the fullest!

  • @soccerchik151 a beautiful way to say it and same here im a freshman right now and couldnt agree with the way you put it any better

  • @soccerchik151 "When my life flashes before my eyes some day, I want to make it worth watching!" That's a beautiful line.

  • @soccerchik151 Hey man I am in out of school and i wish that i could Go bad to high school when i thought i was the hardest thing ever because You know what little buddy High school is really easy you just have to pust forth some work and Try to have a fun and good time in high school because i really regret not doing any thing like sports but i know you dont have to paly sports to have fun but just try to have fun in you life because once you grow up and trust me high school was the best
