    Always coming back for this. You capture the the mood, the melancholy, the nostalgia perfectly in your own way. Just extra special.

    Whoa didn't think people would watch this.
    Thanks to everyone and yes that's me singing lol. That's quite a compliment!
    I don't do much in the way of effects. I some reverb to my voice in an effort to make it sound more mixed when played on UA-cam. That and when I render the final mix I use something called compression to equalize the levels. I actually sing kind of loud (sorry neighbors) so the compression helps make sure your ears don't hurt when you listen :)

      you definitely added an urgency and intensity to the song maybe its because of singing loud and there is some real emotion going on. beautiful

    Beautifully played man. Best thing about UA-cam is videos like this, cutting away all of the peripheral BS, commercials, advertisements. No longer bound by the chains of consumption. Videos like these promote creation. Keep creating these tronius! Stay awake people.

    Memories are brought to the surface, to be relived once again, lost friends live on as dazzling horizons, never to leave us. Regrets fade gently into a imperfect pool of bitter rivals and lost battles.

    I haven't listened to your rendition of this for a while. I've been inspired in recent years to start a Twitch channel by people younger and older than myself, having fun playing games and chatting with people. I was reflecting on how the last 7 months have been as a streamer this morning and all the wonderful friends I've made in the past few years, and it reminded me of this song. I hope I can meet some of them someday. Thank you once again Tronius.

      If you really love your life deeply and all your loved ones no matter you might a mountain of problems behind and ahead of you, life is much more stronger than those and it makes feeling very deep emotions and tears are more than naturals. To me dudes that won't cry can't live their lives fully with emotions, just limiters on 24/7 or only drunk like hell it's possible.

    Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
    Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
    Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst
    Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?
    Let us die young or let us live forever
    We don't have the power, but we never say never
    Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
    The music's for the sad man
    Can you imagine when this race is won?
    Turn our golden the faces into the sun
    Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune
    The music's played by the, the madman
    Forever young
    I want to be forever young
    Do you really want to live forever?
    Forever, and ever
    Forever young
    I want to be forever young
    Do you really want to live forever?
    Forever young
    Some are like water, some are like the heat
    Some are a melody and some are the beat
    Sooner or later they all will be gone
    Why don't they stay young?
    It's so hard to get old without a cause
    I don't want to perish like a fading horse
    Youth's like diamonds in the sun,
    And diamonds are forever
    So many adventures given up today
    So many songs we forgot to play
    So many dreams swinging out of the blue
    Oh let it come true
    Forever young
    I want to be forever young
    Do you really want to live forever
    Forever, and ever?
    Forever young
    I want to be forever young
    Do you really want to live forever
    Forever, and ever?
    Forever young
    I want to be forever young
    Do you really want to live forever
    Forever young..

      Raymond Fee Yep. Jay Z covered it. It was originally done by Alpha-ville as I'm sure that's what you're trying to point out :).
      JayZ made it somewhat popular to the modern day people circa 2007/2008.
      Actually I loved the Alpha-ville version growing up, but JayZ reminded me of it and made me want to cover it.
      So that's why JayZ is listed there :)
