    "They said: 'Son, don't change'
    and I keep hoping they won't see how much I have"
    This is such a powerful line

    The two reasons I came to this video.
    1. Thomas is singing like a chorus of freaking Angels.
    2. Videos of small child Thomas

    “I'm standing on the borderline
    Between two states- I'm petrified”
    And just like that you’ve summed up how I’ve felt so often in the past year (and will continue to feel the rest of my life) as I’ve faced some of the biggest, scariest, life altering decisions of my life.
    I never had the words for that feeling before. I really like the comparison. Thank you for a beautiful song (Sung by a beautiful boy with an amazing voice that makes me want to cry a little every time but in a good way)

    God, this song makes my soul ache. It makes me long for days long past. Thomas, I know you may never read this, and I accept that, and I hope my story could possibly help others who may read through this comment section.
    I was 5 years old when my dad lost his job. I didnt quite understand what that meant at the time, but that moment is what I like to call, “the beginning of the end” as the years went by, I moved around a lot, and my dad drank more and more. He never hit me, but he’d verbally abuse us, and he liked to intimidate my mother and I, by throwing punches that never contacted us. This continued for several years. It took a lot of courage, but when I turned 12, my mom divorced my father on September 21, 2015, and was kicked out of our house. December 3rd of that same year, my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. I was 12, and my brother, who is on the autism spectrum was 15. I cooked, I cleaned, and I took care of my brother and I. I faked phone calls forged signatures filled out bills to make sure my family could be okay. I turned 13, with no fanfare. two months later, I cut all up and down my arms. wrist to elbow, and I almost died because of it. I did my best to make sure i was okay. Some probably needed stitches, but it wasnt an option. 3 months go by, and I found your youtube channel through a cute video. “Reasons to Smile” since then, I’ve continued to strive to be a better person. Two years later, at 15 and feeling 30, I can proudly say: I’m two years clean June 3rd, and my mom is a year cancer free August 28. Thank you Thomas
    and to anybody reading this that may be struggling, i know it doesnt seem it, but life does get better. maybe not tomorrow, or the next week, or even next year, but I promise you, it gets better.

      evil tron that part is sad, but for me the saddest part is after that. 1:58 - 2:07 is the hardest part. Shadow is definitely hard but that line he’s talking about the past. The part, he’s talking about the acceptance of people at the present and in the future. And it’s so sad but God I love this song. Dx

    If somehow either of you see this, please know that you have brought so much hope, happiness and light into this world. Looking at the comments in just this video, at the reactions, the memories, the connections and the emotions you’ve sparked, thank you.
    Thomas, your voice is beautiful and perfect for this song, the emotion behind it is perfect. Jamahl, your playing is simply beautiful, there is no other way to describe it. Joan. The lyrics are so touching and make me speechless. The tune, the melody, how it all flows and the soft majesty of it all leaves no words to be said.
    Thank you all xxx

    I know you're a very busy person, Thomas, and you're probably not going to read this, but you are probably the one person on this earth that can really make me smile. I truly identify with you, and your singing, comedy, and overall message that things will get better have really helped me to cope with all of the emotions that bombard someone during adolescence. I don't know if I'm going to last past this stage of life, but you have helped me get this far. I thank you from the bottom of my sad heart.
    Edit: I honestly forgot about this comment. I am certainly in a much happier place where I'm much more confident in myself and my relationships. Thank you to everyone who responded checking in :}

    The line “they said son, don’t change, and I keep hoping they won’t see how much I have” hits so close to home - which is why (when my son is old enough to understand) I’m going to tell him “don’t change for anyone other than for yourself, change is inevitable, just make sure it’s a change that you like and that it’s not for other people”

    Well, I'm currently between middle school and high school and I know I will never be able to talk with all of my old classmates ever again and I might not even see some of the people I've known since before I could even write down my name. The high school is so much bigger in size and I don't know how much I'll be able to take. I don't know who I'll be seen as or who I'll hang with... It's just all moving along.
    I'll try to remember to come back in four years and cry again.
    Everyone who worked on this song is so darn talented and just thank you for existing.
    You know what? I'm just going to thank everyone right now. Like, everyone just here and reading this. Thank you to whoever is reading this comment for your mere existence and living the life you are. I know several of you probably have rough things going on right now, but the sun always shines after even the heaviest of storms. Thank you for being yourself. If you aren't feeling like yourself, I hope you'll get there. I know I may never meet you outside of this, but just keep on keeping on and have a lovely life!

Just try not to psych yourself up about it.... Have an amazing day and just try and enjoy high school while you can... : )

    Hi Thomas & Joan, I know you probably won't see this but I don't care, because this song was absolutely beautiful and I need to just like, say how much it touched me. I'm also someone who looks back, like, a lot. It's weird because my past wasn't all bad, but there was a large chunk of my teenage years where I was depressed and self-conscious and deeply unhappy. And like, as much as I'm proud of myself for focusing on my studies and managing to move away and start over, it's really difficult to like, move on from that time. Because it's like, I wonder how much of who I am now - like my perfectionism, my social anxiety, hating crowded clubs - like, how much of that is because of those years of bullying and general darkness, and how different would I be if that had never happened. It's easy to get lost in memories, to wonder "what if," to wonder if the girl I was at 9 years old would be pleased or disappointed with who I am now. How much of her personality have I kept, how much have I abandoned, left behind because I became jaded and had to focus on "growing up". Sometimes it can be all encompassing.
    But for the record, I think she would be proud of me. And I have changed, a lot, but that's not bad. We change because we learn, and some of those lessons are hard to swallow, and some then need to be unlearned to make room for better ones. It's easy to feel like a shadow of the past, but that's not really it. We're more like a photo album, a collection of thousands of memories, and we can't carry every single picture. And that's okay. 'Cause we'll take more pictures as we go on, and it's important to leave some pictures behind so there's space for the new ones.

It could be with the courses you're taking, if you just need to talk to someone, or just anything. Oh, and take some time for yourself every once in a while. Too much work is bad; just take a couple minutes without your phone or any distractions every once in a while. :) You're gonna do great! I wish you the best of luck!

    I’ve been desperate to say all of these so here we go; The things I love most about Thomas
    1. He doesn’t ask for subscribers, likes etc.
    2. His friends. Take Joan and Talyn. Could you get friends any better?
    3. His voice and personality
    4. He isn’t big headed, cocky and doesn’t think the world of himself.
    5. All of the above and more.
    Thomas, keep doing what you’re doing. I can tell in your facial expressions that you really feel what you sing. Not many people have that gift. You are amazing and don’t let anyone tell you differently.

    I am way too emotional right now. This song describes so well what i've been feeling the last couple months. Most days all i want is to return to the happy, innocent, trusting child i was. Before depression. Before anxiety. Before barricading my heart. I want it sometimes so much that it physically hurts. But if i had the chance to, despite the temptation, i wouldn't. I can't say i fully like myself even still today, but i wouldn't choose to be someone else. My dark times forged me into who i am now and someday i will learn to love myself for them, and not in spite of them.
    Thomas, somehow you always seem to hit the exact right heart string with every song. Please keep creating more of these and tell Joan and Jamahl they are so incredibly gifted! The songs Joan writes are all i want to listen to.

And all i hope is that at some point my story can help someone else work through, or understand a bit clearer what they are going through too. I don't open up to many people and i have had a lot of bad days (years) but if they in any way help anyone it will all be worth it.

    I'm actually crying. Thank you, Thomas, Joan, Jamahl and everyone who contributed to this song. This is just the song I need right now.
    When I was a kid, I was really outgoing, confident and happy-go-lucky. However, now I'm becoming this more reserved, quiet, introverted person. Social interaction is scary and I spend most of my time alone in my room. My self-esteem has taken a huge dive as well.
    Recently, it was the seventh anniversary of my grandfather's passing, and it got me thinking about what he'd think of me if he were still here. I tried to tell myself he'd be proud. I'm doing well at school, I'm preparing to be in a show at the West End, which is awesome, and I have amazing friends. However, no matter what I thought, there was always this voice in the back of my mind, saying he'd be disappointed in me. It told me that I'm a wreck, that I'm not prepared for the next big steps in life and I'll fail what's to come.
    The thoughts made me wish I could go back, return to being a child with zero worries and fears. Not have to face GCSEs and college, and beyond that, university and adulthood (or, as Patton would say, adultery). I actually started acting like my happy, upbeat, childhood self in front of my parents so they wouldn't know the inner struggles I was facing.
    I thought I was alone, but by hearing this song and knowing there are others who feel the same way I do, I feel really reassured. Your videos have helped me so much through hard times and I want you to know that. Sure, this comment will probably be lost in the sea of others, but I still want to say: Thank you. So so much. From me, and all the other Fanders. We really appreciate everything you do.

    Honestly I know you probably won’t see this Thomas but for the incredibly slim chance you do, this song hit really close to home for me. When I was really young I was told I had a deficiency that pretty much made my bones decay while I’m still alive. I was told I was going to die long before everyone else and being a young kid this terrified me. This was considered the beginning of the end for me, and it was considered to be like I was standing in between two things: life to death, and I was terrified. I was told to never change because I wouldn’t have much time anyway. Turns out, it’s 10 years later and I lived so far 6 years longer then I was supposed to. This song represented a lot of thing I couldn’t understand back then but now I can. This song is incredible! Thank you for making it: this was something I needed to hear.

    This is incredibly nostalgic and makes me sad even though it wasn't my childhood videos
    This is just so gorgeous and beautiful and the emotions can really be felt through the video. As I got further in the video it started to hit way too close to home

    I don’t know what it is but whenever Thomas sings, it’s very calming in a sense
    I just got dumped by my significant other and this has been a good coping mechanism for me
    Thank you Thomas you’re amazing ❤️💙💜💛

    I recently found out my family wants to move to Washington from California, and I can’t decide where to go. I would love to leave, but I don’t want to leave what I’m made, and destroy my mark on my family and friends. I can’t stop thinking about it, and when I don’t, my parents bring it back up. I really don’t want to leave everyone in California, but I’ve already made friends in Washington, and I don’t want to leave them either. I didn’t really want to bring this up, but this song shows my feelings.
    Thank you for making my life so happy, even if we do move.
    I hope my life can stay as bright while your in it.
