  • anybody know whereabouts in the UK he was in the first half of the video?

  • My fucking god he is so perfect.

  • I want this to be played at my funeral ...

  • Beautiful and touching

  • i love him so much holy guacamole 

  • oh my god i cant get over how beautiful this is...

  • I have the same gloves as John O'Callaghan. Thank you mom

  • It's funny how many people take years to inspire, but John in a 2:27 video was able to truly inspire me. He truly summed up all my personal thoughts....incredible.

  • this song made me wanna cry, it's so beautiful and so true. I'm so in love with John O' :D

  • This is beautiful. I have no words.

  • I wonder about this all the time... but my thoughts are never that beautifully articulated

  • who else can't even see the dislike bar?

  • this is inspiring, beautiful video :)

  • I thought this was going to be funny but its not. IT made me go back and think about some things. Thank You.

  • that was fucking beautiful. 

  • Hopefully, I'm remembered that I was someone that truly cared about my friends, that no matter what they went through or how they treated me, I never gave up them and I never stopped loving and caring for them.

  • this is so inspiring. thank you :)

  • I've thought about this before, and it's so beautiful.

  • what was the song called?

    

  • Cant watch without crying

  • I cry everytime I see this.

  • @PunksStillPray56 me too :')

  • @Bexter227 It's just like, so r e a l. (If that makes sense.)

  • Nice message - thank you SO MUCH for not splashing a corporate logo up at the end.

  • i wish he could read me a book

  • sometimes i just watch this when i'm bored and cry

  • John O', I love you.

  • beautiful. inspiring. touching. and moving

  • Kinda mad now because i feel like daughter could get too famous because of this video...I felt so special being one of the only few who listened to her :/

  • @HeyItsL0gan you're musical tastes shouldn't be based on the popularity of the band/artist. you should feel happy that one of your favourite artists is being exposed through a lovely video such as this :D

  • I don't even like The Maine and I didn't know this had anything to do with them until I wanted to add it to my favorites. What a way to be introduced to them :)

  • cool story bro

  • that was awesome....

  • I'm in love with him.

  • The song used in this video is Daughter - Switzerland.

    EVERYBODY THUMB THIS COMMENT UP.

  • @T3hJam thanks you're the best :)

  • @T3hJam Omg i love daughter and then i was watching this video and i thought i was listening to it and i didnt close the tab and i like freaked out when i realized it was the video!!

  • this really brought some clarity into my life. 

  • such a great fellow! I never thought John to have this side, so touching. (: I love him more!

  • i've probably commented on this before and said this, but john needs to do more things like this. this is truly incredible and inspiring. i love it so much :)

  • what's the song they use in the background? this vid was so inspiring o.o

  • his voice is so peaceful. he can tell me a story every night for i can fall asleep.

  • This need to be put on television as a commercial, this is so inspirational. The Maine all together is a huge inspiration for me. Keep doing what you're doing guys. :3

  • I watch this like every week.

  • he looks so awkward with his hands in his jacket pockets..

  • "how will your story be told?"

    i hope it can be told as beautifully as this.

  • I thought I've subscribed to The Maine channel since last time but every time they post a new video, I realise I still haven't subscribe to them!

  • this is truly beautiful. As it is, I loved The Maine but I had no idea that they were so deep. Thank you, Iwastesomuchtime, for bringing this to my attention c:

  • Finally a badass Arizona local band. Yes.

  • I don't like having my existential crisis laid out so neatly like it was in the beginning. However, this is beautiful.

  • This is some hipster douchebaggery right here. Meaningless, 'I'm so sensitive' word salad at its worst.

  • Beautiful. A short video with such impact.

  • [direct quote from the video we all just watched]

  • I think that the song in the background deserves some credit. I believe it's Switzerland by Daughter

  • I don't think I've wasted my time by seeing this at all. This was worth it.

  • meh

  • First part and last part of this video are great, the middle is just ok

  • This is actually a pretty pointless string of words. The concepts don't really relate to each other, or at least enrich what he's really trying to say. It's only because of the way these words are spoken, and that they're set to a nice montage, that people think this is a nice video.

  • @Godoubtful But if it makes people consider about things they wouldn't normally even give a thought to, isn't it for the best?

  • iwastesomuchtime

    

  • @alexsammiethedog134 ha ha, I saw it there too :D

    This is a really nice video, especially the first part.

  • I'll admit it, I cried.

  • John, you will be remembered by the beautiful poetry/songs you write. You will be remembered by the ten of thousands of kids who you inspire everyday with your music, and who aspire to be like you; a successful man who has touched every single one of your fans hearts in every way imaginable.

  • This is what I needed to hear :) .

  • This is the cutest thing ever, i cried my eyes out! John, ugh you are so beautiful! i love you x

  • i got chills needless to say

  • He's such a beautiful man. Honestly words can't even discribe what these words mean to me. It makes you think. It makes you love everyday. I want to live by these words with the hope that I can be a greater person.

  • He is a human being. Everyone is talking like he's the first one to say this, and like he's a god. I love The Maine, but jesus, calm down..

  • I saw this before and I come back to it at my worse. This video made me realize how big of an impact The Maine had on not just my life, but me as a person. You guys helped guide me to be the person who I am today and I appreciate it so much. No one will understand how much I love you guys. You guys always bring me back together when I am down. I just want to thank you guys for that and thank you for making music. I mean this with all my heart. I truly and sincerely love the Maine <3

  • why can nobody hit my heart with words... but john can? his voice hits my heart.

  • John just touched my heart like never before...

  • I will always remember this band. I will always cherish them for what I've learned from their songs and videos. I will always shed a cry, make it happy or sad, whenever I hear their songs.The Maine, you will always be remembered by me. I love you.-Jully.

  • this is amazing

  • this made me love them even more <3

  • He's strong & I'm stronger because I've been listening this. The Maine is my favorite band, you're the best guys. Thank you. 

  • John, such an inspiring person who has a way with words. One of the most incredible people in my book.

  • This is absolutely beautiful.

    

  • he's such an irrevocably moving human being.

  • that. was. beautiful.

  • He really gets me to stop and think about everything. Thanks John(:

    The maine has helped shape my life, I'm very grateful for all of you guys!

  • I can't cry because everyone's in the room but I'm really close to tears right now,

  • I love every single sentence, every single world of it.

  • this video is just so inspiring. and every word of it is so true. seriously, even people who don't know of or like the maine should see this. it's such an amazing message.

  • The first words came and I started crying. I can't even stop now.

    He's such a poet and, oh my gosh, he's so freaking good at this.

    Thank you, John!

  • @FearlessRLC96 OMGSH! thanks! Can't Wait! :D

  • How often do you look back? Really reflect on what you’ve done? The insignificance of it all; pointless arguments, inside jokes, funny hair cuts. But do you ever wonder how you’ll be remembered? Or if what you’ve done or what you’re doing means anything at all? What will your songs sound like when you’re dead and gone? Will tears fall when the last note is sung? And how will your story be told? Will your words leave a bitter taste in their mouths? Or will they even remember you at all?

  • Compassion. The concept is rather simple, most know what it means to be civil. But there truly is a fine line between sweet and sour. Give too much of yourself away and you’ll be all used up. Not enough and no one will be around to share this with.

  • So what is it that motivates us to be better, gentler, more refined? I like to think it’s those close to us, close to the heart and soul. Those who carried you to the car after you puked on their shoes, those who took the blame for breaking the window when it was you who casts the stone, those who will be by your side when reality knocks on your door both good and bad.

  • But more importantly, those whose stories you will share with your kids and grand kids, and their kids, and their grand kids, in hopes to somehow keep this all alive. Chivalry, decency, kindness, compassion, desire, strength. How will you be remembered?”

  • They should all do a video like this :')

  • I want to fall asleep to this over and over again.

  • the chills ran up my legs. i ca't stop hitting replay.
