This is my all time fav song! I have known it sense i was 4 or 5 i love this song to death! and Travis Tritt is amazing <3 when i get a new i-pod this is going on it 1st!
wish every was a great day 2 be alive but still growing up on my paretns ranch 14 years old thinking about wat ima do after high school makes me sad i mit have 2 leave the ranch and join the army dont know if i mit come back or go 2 collage idk itll make me sad beign away ive always been on a ranch my whole family has owend a ranch my great great great great great great grandparetns owend a ranch
Things haven't been going too well lately; very discouraged. But all I need to do to pick up the day is to put on this video and sing along. Makes you grateful for the day and changes your outlook. Thanks Travis :)
my grandpa just recently had a heart attack and was seconds from diein and my 7 year old brother startded singing it ...i asked him why and he said if it comforts me ...i no itll comfort poppop
Great song but some props need to be given to the guy who wrote it. Darrell Scott. One of the most underrated, underappreciated singer/song-writers of our time.....
you damn wright its a great day to be alive,been thro a atv accident, lost a brother in 08,lost a wife in 2kids, but what the hell im alive an i will make it thro the heart of a special person in my life now. i just say this if it wasnt for her i wouldnt be here today..........
Pure musical happiness. This is music at it's best. In my country of Australia, there are petitions to bring this song to sainthood. Combine all the best songs in this century into one and you can't even come close to touching this absolute masterpiece of all songs. Travis Tritt’s It's a Great Day to Be Alive is truly the best.
This is surely a feel-good song. I've been appreciating for a good many years since I heard the original by the writer Darrell Scott. I am sure Travis Tritt acknowledges him often.
(You can look up Darrell Scott on Wikipedia to see the numerous songs he has written for country artists.)
I got a 5 day beard.....OTR truck driver and just got home. Peaceful house with none of my ex wives (3). Old harley in the garage. MT fridge and you know what.??? I'm doin just fine. Former Marine, Ex biker, Ex bouncer, Father of 2 young women.(who lived with me dammit.) Im lucky to be alive and in this country. Call me Boogie
I hope he knows he is still welcome to get back to wrighting music, he could show some people what Country music sounds like. As a matter if they all came back they would blow all the hip hop country wannbees off the stage.
my dad and i used to listen to this song in the truck and he would pretent to play drums on the stearing wheel ang i would sit in my car seat and sing!
GOD BLESS YOU bigdmck01, When I came home from Iraq this is one of the songs I played like crazy. It would also be a blessing to one day meet him and if possible, see him preform live at the project I'm working on now.
"I look in the mirror and what do i see? A lone wolf there starin' back at me. Long in the tooth but harmless as can be. lord i guess hes doin alright"
my favorite lines of this amazing song because thats what i see when i look in the mirror
my friend Sophie taught me this song, she knew it since she was about 4 and she told she would hear this on the radio all the time and she would sing it all the time.
This is an amazing song, i want to sing this at the talent show now
It was funny earlier today. I was drivin my golf cart out behind my house in the fields and just out of random just started singing this song lol. And yea same thing with you housten. I havent heard this song in forever.
i love this song havent heard it for about 2 years now and when i heard it the other day i downloaded it instantly great old song this is coming from someone who usually hates country too definately my favourite country song

I listened to Darrell Scott's version, and his is okay. He's a songwriter, not a professional musician, and while many professional songwriters write great songs, they don't have the vocals.
