  • Very nice song , so romantic and awsome .. :)

  • he is amazing just simply no other way to say it you should here his song human!!!!

  • Wow i love this song and video NEW FAN! haha xxx

  • I'm confused....where did the whol acid thing come from??

  • My friend is the girl in the blue polo (:

  • god, what a crappy video. it really sucks. nice song tho.

  • I didn't know he sung this song! Love it!

  • Love the video--He's such a great singer, and this is a wonderful song.

    I just wish there could be a SINGLE YouTube video without some huge argument in the comments, though.

  • lovet, so cute he is such a great singer i love his songs

  • I LOVEEE THIS SONG!!!!!

  • Beautiful song, with deep meaning. I really love it.

  • Continued:

    It's likely they slowly developed together. And any animal with more acid than lining died, before it could pass on its failed genes. Every single one of your ancestors was a survivor. They didn't die young, they didn't die at birth, all your descendants were alive and healthy long enough to mate and have children.

  • Cool I've been listening to this guy for about 4yrs and tonight I finally get to see him live at Baylor Univ. He is going to perform on "Christmas on 5th St." I'm quite happy. = )

  • If God is not real, and the THEORY of evolution is real, then explain to me thi digestive system. Ur stomach has acids that will eat the rest of ur stomach if it didnt have the lining GOD put there. if evolution were doing it, it wouldnt know wat it was doing, y would it creat a stomach lining for acids that areant even there yet. and if the acids were there first, we would all be dead bcuz there was no lining in our body to protect us against the acids.

  • I'm no expert on stomachs, but it did it ever occur to you that the acid and lining both came into existence together? Evolution theory is basic things becoming advanced things. Because the odds of some already advanced entity, just coming in to existence (like God?) without any prior development, are phenomenally small. So a stomach with acid but not lining coming into existence, is rather advanced. And vice versa. Hence small possibility.

  • Actually, the acid came first. There are lots of animals that have the acid and no lining. Quite a few with the lining and no acid as well, as I have observed.

    

    I love visiting the aquarium :>

  • let me explain evolution to you, which you clearly do not really understand. the process leading up to the stomach in hyper-complex multicellular animals took hundreds of millions of years with hundreds of millions of revisions and failed species. i could go into deeper discussion but it would take pages of comments to explain the entire process, besides, you come across as someone who doesn't want to learn

  • Question.. How are animals smart enough to go "OH darn! We messed up with that last one. We need to revise this and make changes."

  • They just make lots and lots more. Something's always along to eat the mistakes...PLEASE tell me this dumb discussion isn't about all these gorgeous girls.

  • random but i love it

  • Can we stop talking about religion and just enjoy the song?

    I LOVE IT .

  • Thank you!

  • Christian, non christian you need to have your OWN beliefs! Throw out what society tells you and do what is best for YOU. If thats in god, great. If not, thats great too. Think for yourself and question EVERYTHING. And above all, never settle. Know what you want/deserve and go after it and stop for nothing.

  • to Stuff and Jesus, part 2

    ...like an accomodation and love-gift of grace until we get to heaven. We are truly meant for Christ, but also for each other in communion here as a foretaste of the full communion we will have together in the Kingdom of God. Fancy theology way to put it: marriage is a proleptic participation in Christ of the full communion of the eternal, Triune relational love of God that we will be caught up into as fully as humanly possible in the eschaton.

  • Stuff123 and JesusLoves, From a Christian perspective, you're both right-we must find who we are first and foremost in Christ, but also this life is not heaven, we're not in the full presence and fulfillment that awaits, yet we are created for relationships with each other too ("It is not good for the man to be alone..."), so unless you have the gift of celibacy, it is God's will to experience the love of Christ in the most concrete way possible in this life with a husband/wife...

  • He should change name.

  • He's cute

  • im a guy and in this situation that this song describes 19 and never had a gf

  • aw i'm sorry.. :[

    but yeah isn't this song great? haha

  • To: stuff12345678901234

    I'm 18 and I've never had a bf. But I've learned that if I can't be happy enough without a boyfriend, then I most certainly won't be happy with one. I'm Christian and I think if I can't love God more than anything, and secondly, love myself, then I won't be capable of loving others the way they deserve to be loved. You have to be content with yourself first and for most. Best Wishes : )

  • Comment removed

  • what you said really has no meaning im sorry but its not as simple as your cliche phrase if you say that then what about this cliche 'a gf, a wife is called your better half' because its too hard to go it alone and no one is completely happy with oneself or loves oneself hence finding someone who will love you regardless

    so the whole 'love yourself means nothing especially for a guy like me who doenst do not even half the bad stuff teens do and i dont drink or smoke

  • thanks ths makes me feel so much better... people think that i am crazy when i say that i never had a bf or a first kiss... i am only 16 and know that the lord has a plan for my future and i will find that guy t some point with the halep of the lords love and grace

  • I don t think that you need to be a christian to believe in that..your point of view is right but i don t believe it was christianity that made you believe in it!

  • Sadlullabiesdreamer, I assume you're talking to me-you're right, I think Christianity shores it up nicely and helps to delve into the depth of the riches, but it is like an innate or intuitive thing we can grasp, we can't go it alone, we really do need each other, to fully meet all of our needs (I mean, not just food and stuff, but that too, or else we'd all be foraging for berries and grasshoppers! :o)

    There seems to be a strong tendency in our culture to resist healthy interdependence, sad.

  • well sung Jon McLaughlin, well sung,

    this really helps me on a bad day.

  • music student not band football cheerleading disaster

  • i think it was meant to have "average" people in it; i mean what does average really mean ? i think no body is average, me i know i am not average i am unique. EVERYONE is unique in their own way.

  • @mUfFiNcHeWy

    Everyone's unique... i agree, im just pointing out the irony. isnt that an oxymoron? if everyone's unique, then no one is, because everyone is. "you're completely unique - just like everyone else. " ? i find that hilarious, but maybe thats just mee... <3 :)

  • @totallyleafy

    Ha I thought I was teh only one who figured that out!

  • @totallyleafy dude being not unique is unique ,

  • @mUfFiNcHeWy

    I think that's what average means

    Everyone's unique, so being unique is the usual, or AVERAGE.

  • Every one had their own opinion and GOD made everyone for a purpose and we have 2 find out what that purpose is and these girls r beautiful in their own special way inside and out

  • I completely agree with PhaerEqueeN01! I think that all the girls used in the video are really attractive just not in the sterotypical way. :)

  • You know the blonde one that you see as the first face, she looks like the person who plays Jenny in Gossip Girl lol

  • I think these girls are beautiful. Look at their eyes, and how full of hope they have. If people can't notice that and see that as true beauty, then this is one sad world. Not everyone is a model, but I find real people with genuine hearts and personalities so much more attractive than those who don't possess these qualities. WORLD, STOP BEING SO DAMN SHALLOW!!!

  • i agree. thank youu.

  • This is a musical discovery for me.

    I love it.

  • This song is really good! I can't believe that I've never heard of this guy until today! Thanks Youtube! :) <3

  • i love him! this is truly a beautiful song that captures just what every girl everywhere is thinking <3

  • nice one :)

  • I think this song appeals to every teenage girl. Good job, Jon. He knows who to please!! xD

  • That's what bad about the media! they only presents perfect beautiful! The reason why the youths of today has a lot of INSECURITIES!

  • I like how all the girls in this are all totally different lol

  • i agree. :|

  • While I'm all for the whole "Everyone's beautiful" thing, I find it very ironic that the girls in videos like this (songs speaking about unrealistic expectations, lacking confidence, feeling unwanted/unloved) are all your stereotypical 'model gorgeous' girls.

  • pretty girls can have self esteem problems too ya know...

  • Well obviously.

    It's just the stereotype I'm talking about.

  • everyone in this seems pretty average to me

  • wow. your a bitch.

  • you do realize that if they used absolutely gorgeous girls it wouldnt relate to the lyrics at all... its not all about the visual aspect of the video, its about the music

  • i disagree...quite a lot actually i rather like the alternative girl shes hot ^_^

  • Neither is your superficial attitude.

  • this is my song. I listen to it when I'm down. It says the things that my friends cant say.

  • I really like this song, but I never knew what he was like. wow. Hes's sort of..just a little..ok. He's hot. Great video. He seems like a really cool guy.

  • jon DM-ed on twitter!! :DD

  • they all have such beautiful eyes

  • muy buenaa

  • The fact that they have "flaws" is what makes them beautiful. "Perfection" is boring.

    I also want to include that flaws are opinions of individuals. What one person finds ugly, one person finds beautiful.

    And there is no such thing as perfection. There's always something someone would want to change.

  • Well put, amarie.

  • Comment removed

  • My friend played this song on her iTunes at work today.

    It made my heart hurt. :'-(

  • The guy claiming this is 'racist' was just trolling. Don't feed the trolls.

    The girls in the video are average, I suppose. But they are all so pretty. It reminds me how fantastic we all looked back then. I think the prettiest one is the one with glasses and pony tails, but that's just me.

  • This is my song..... :) Makes me wanna cry everytime :')

  • wow, how many rap videos have only black people in them? This song isn't about racism! Maybe that just happens the be the ethnic distribution of the high school they shot this video at! There are better places to take a stand on racism than this.

    plus, the girls aren't even beautiful. They're flawed. They're imperfect, and that's the point.

  • Actually, there is one non-white girl at 1:44, seen again at 2:47 and 3:20.

    Just sayin''.

  • there is at least one black girl in this video...and these girls aren't supposed to be beautiful, per se, they are average, flawed.

  • you're an idiot

  • Oh, ok. Rather than refute my argument you simply resort to name-calling. Real mature laurx7love.

  • i'm sorry jeffo, i really dont even remember why i called you an idiot. no hard feelings

  • wow the "nerdy" girl's smile is really pretty

    and really good song

  • You mean 4.35??

  • Sorry, you mean 2.38 or 2.54 or 3.15 or 3.18 or 3.53 (my best)

  • the one at 3.15

  • this is the most amazing song ive heard in the longest time, sky rocketed to my number one favorite, and completely out of my music taste. BMFV, 5FDP, etc.

  • Love love love this song!!!

    It's so cute how it's coming from a guy this time, and not a girl. Different perspective :)

    ♥♥♥

    :)

  • this is the story of my life .

    exactly .

  • i love him more than anything in the world, but he looks like he has buckteeth in this song. LOVE YOU!!! :D

  • I love this song <3

  • This song is so much like me, it kindof scares me.

  • this is one of those songs thats universal. you know the kind that "speaks" to everyone and their dog

  • everyone and their dog.. lmfao

    i love it =]

  • this song realates to me you dont even know how much

  • you and me both..my lifes song.

  • what a hottie

  • I love this song! I first heard it at my dentist's office waiting for a root canal and it completely relaxed me. And yes... I agree with that caller, women ARE God-like, smoochy cute and adorable beautifully decorated inside and out the squishy part and they LOVE fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies, ladybugs and makin' that wild passionate whoopee by a roaring romantic fire. It's awesome!

  • WTF

  • i love this song so much, it relates to a lot of girls... including me. a lot.

  • dear lord, the comment fights on this page are almost as entertaining as the actual song

  • haha

  • this is such an amazing & beautiful song...<3 =)

  • me he sentido asi un millon de veces......cambiaria todo lo daria todo por ser un poco diferente.....

    seriously, is not a good feeling.....you feel like something's missing...

  • hello guys..know what?.

    this song is really my best one...

  • this song is so beautiful. And right now I can relate to his words. This is exactly what I needed tonight :)

  • i dont mean this in a womanizing way but i think Women in general are one of God's most Beautiful creations inside and out ; )

  • I completely agree. That's why God made man first so he could practice. lol Little Brad Stine humor there

  • =P ; ) lol

  • i thought this song was awesome on Georgia Rule w/ Lindsay Lohan

  • hahahaha

  • calm down guys, please.

    i think this song is good, irrelevant of what he is making from it or whether or not he is just singing for money.

    women are manipulated by the media so much and teenage girls feel a lot of pressure, so much so that some would rather die than be fat, or they kill themselves because they think they are ugly.

    if he gets this message across to at least one girl, scam or no scam, good on him. fair enough i'd say?

    :) xxx

  • Dear shizmit11, I'm sorry if I was rude..my mistake..

  • Dear shizmit11,go to hell..=) I hope this sentence you will be able to understand..

  • If you disagree with me thats fine. But do you really need to write things like that to get your point across?

    This forum is to post our thoughts and opinions. Why are your thoughts more important then someone you don't agree with?

    Sorry if I offended you.

  • Can't people stop spamming the comments with arguments? Take it elsewhere.

    On another note, I love this song.

  • hey, its for everybodys opinion, when it turns into a debate then they should be taken to emails i agree.

  • Dear shizmit11, how adult of you to sit infront of the computer all day commenting the song you consider stupid..good luck to you!=)

  • Dear softtouch1984,

    If your going to try to insult me, learn to put a proper sentence together first.

    This way, I will understand what you are trying to say.

    Have a nice day.

  • god you guys are so rude to eachother. I'm not trying to be insulting but i'm just reading it, and this is my opinion on what you're saying to eachother.

  • your right.....sorry.

  • Comment removed

  • I love this song, im 16, this describes me so well :/

  • Exactly my point, Softtouch1984.

  • who said that only 12yr girls fall for the songs like that??? I'm 25 and I love it..who cares if he does it for money...everyone does..if you don't like it just don't listen to it...

  • I didn't say JUST 12yr olds, It's just a 12 yr old mentality is usually different then an adult.

    Thats why adults don't ( usually ) like listening to Kid Bop. ( ya I have a 12yr old girl )

    Adults usually have something that appeals to them, and not the teenie boppers.

    No offense, just my opinion.

  • Lots of Artists don't do it for money, it's about passion. Those are usually the best.

  • I was not insinuating someone was perverted, just dumb.

    What the hell is on your mind, you freak?

    There is no reason to resort to personal attacks.

    Get some help, I think you would benefit from it.

  • so because 12 year old girls love it it makes it stupid? it's trying to tell young girls that everybody is worried about their looks and they shouldn't be, surely thats a good message for todays society?

  • No, that doesn't make it stupid.

    It's just, as a grown man, I can see this singer is just trying to profit from 12yr old girls. He knows, just as the Backstreet Boys did,( but they were kids ) you can easily make young impressionable girls buy anything.

    It is just a money maker for him.

    To me that makes it stupid.

    I'm sorry if I offended anyones taste in music.

    Have a nice day.

  • Is this guy Sarah Mclaughlins brother? Or is just a coincidence that there are two people with that last name who have the same singing style

  • You have the internet and you refuse to use it? 15 seconds of research would make it abundantly obvious that they arent related. her name is Sarah McLachlan....so not its not even a coincidence. WIKIPEDIA FTW!!

  • It was late, I was tired, and I only half cared enough to leave a comment let alone search, but I thank you for your help

  • Seriously, John, I think you have anger problems.

    Seek some help. It could turn out to really affect your young life.

  • Actually this is a lot like me too

    heavy on the disaster!

  • He is friggin Gourgeous

    so is his voice

  • This video made me smile, well done.

  • Are you guys serious? what is this, a fu##*& soap opera. Get a job, please.

  • the first time i heard this song it just hit me. this song is so true!

  • External beauty is different for every person, for every eye; but the attraction to Inner Beauty is the same for everyone, one some level: it is learning to love yourself and the people around you, for the character that that they are. Looking through it and loving throughout is the most beautiful thing in the world. Therefore, we all have it within ourselves to be the most beautiful people in the world- All of us making up the most beautiful life we will ever live.

  • Nicely said :)

  • This song is so true. Everyone should really look deeper into this song so that they can realize that they're beautiful, no matter WHAT. If we can all believe that, and find, as well as bring out, the best and most beautiful parts of ourselves, no one would have to feel like a disaster.

  • Lovelove :)! He reminds me of James Morisson!!

  • Jon McLaughlin is a brilliant man. He gained a huge fanbase of insecure teenage girls with this song!

    Love it.

  • this is the story of my life

  • i like both(: but i like him better with short hair..

  • i heard this at youth group & it hits quite close to home! its a very touching song.he's also amazing.</3

  • Has a beautiful voice

  • love tis ogn...he look betta with short hair

  • nahh nowadays teen girls like the long hair dudes...like the jonas bros(gay)

  • nope....not all of us

    looks dirty for me

    i like guys who has clean cut

  • Or JamesDaleMiller if your mind weren't in the gutter you would see "she just needs someone to take her home" as she needs someone to love her and accept her how she is. I guess that's the only line in the song you heard huh?

  • maybe. or it could mean she needs to be go somewhere (with somone)where it feels like home. i dunno, thats how i interpret it :)

  • oh emm gee. sexy or wot?
