Jann Arden is what songwriting is all about. A TRUE Canadian National Treasure we should all be so very proud off. One of the best musical talents out there, PERIOD..
@@jannarden01 I won't. Except...this is kinda "funny," especially at my age, I've discovered a "new-to-me" group: The Pogues and Shane MacGowan. Man, they're amazing. Or were...since they've long gone their separate ways and Shane can hardly speak anymore. Very sad.
Some mothers (and fathers) have trouble letting their children fly free. This song tells them it's going to be okay if they let their children be who they were meant to be. Not easy, perhaps, but the right stance. That soaring voice in the last minute! Wow, Jann!
My Mom had passed away in the fall of '93. I first heard this song in '95 on the radio where I worked. I just started to cry right there. Even to this day, when I listen to this song, I remember the good times with my "best friend". Thank you, Jann.
My son passed away in 1998, at 9 1/2 years old, in a car accident while he was on his skateboard. This was one of his favorite songs, and he was always singing it. He loved Jann Arden. He made me take notice of the song, and I am so happy he did. It brings me tears and comfort listening to it often. I can hear his voice and words singing along with her.
Thanks for the great love and support you show me as a special fan of mine,I hope you won't stop listening to my music@@terrygotwhatheheaskedforfo7789
My Mom passed away two years ago today and she was a huge fan of yours. I am listening to this song a lot today. Thank you for helping through this hard day.
I'm old enough to enjoy and cry over this song STILL!.....She was a HUGE part of my dealing with a growing section in life. Now you know how angels sound when they sing to a soul.....thank you Jane arden.....( air hug )......
You are and forever will remain the woman I have loved for always . This song saved me and your heart and strength and yes vulnerability have comforted me ~ always !
Man I miss listening to Jann Arden!!! I used to Rick out to her in my bright blue mustang! Gasoline the acoustic version was one of my all time favs! ❤️❤️❤️
Jann, I'm 51 now and I reconnect with this song at least once a year. I fell in love with it when it was new but it grows with me, and thankfully my parents, as we age. I relate it more ever year. I'm in the midst of relishing it again just now and wanted to be sure to say thank you. A million times thank you.
My friend Gerry a patient in the brain injury centre always had this song playing As I worked I just was in awe of this and still am thankful Jann I love it 😍❤️🔥
My 2 friends and I saw Jann in concert just last Saturday, May 21, at the Leon's Centre in Kingston. Fantastic concert. She sings so beautifully. Bought a t-shirt before I left, and saw Jann leaving the building after. Got a couple photos of her. She even talked to a couple people outside the fence. Genuine nice person.
I LOVE this woman!!! Your humour and music/lyrics and context of what you write is just magical!!! I love your stories and I love every song you ever wrote!!!! I can listen to you day in day out weeks, mo this and years on end! Timeless relent! Thank you!! ❤
I simply love Jann.. you’re a true artist.. and a true Canadian… with love from Montreal.. btw I loved you’re backstory of how this song came to life… I’m in my late 50’s and I make my kids listen to your music…
Saw you at winery, the day was so special, my mom has limited time and wasn't sure if she would be able to go to concert. She did and the day was beautiful, the weather, your jokes and your voice made us laugh and cry. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us.
Merci Madame @Jann Arden, j'ai 35 ans, je vous ai découvert, dans la série "dawson" à l'époque, avec "run like mad", ou encore "good mother" ou "insensitive" pardonnez mon anglais, en bref, j'ai aussi appris votre combat pour les animaux, et les chevaux plus précisemment, et donc depuis cette époque, je ne cesse de vous écouter, rêvant souvent, étant triste parfois, mais une chose demeure tout le temps, "l'espoir", du moins, votre énergie, votre voix, votre sensibilité m'ont toujours toucher; Merci à vous d'être, d'exister, d'avoir créer, et de créer encore, (pardonnez moi, je suis français). Merci à vous Madame @Jann Arden vous êtes une bénédiction pour nous pauvres mortels....
Jann i do love your voice your song your stories you did touch me so much. I do recognize myself in alot of your stories and songs. And the more I'm listening to you and the more I want . Tks for being such a good human being. Sending ya love from Qc Canada 🇨🇦
I've just finished reading Jann's book 'IF I KNEW THEN' (2020) which is laugh-out-loud funny, heartwarming, and inspiring -and very much like my life (and probably yours) growing up. It's amazing to see someone FAMOUS come from a very similar, basic childhood LOL. Jann is such an inspiration, and coming up to her 60th birthday she is wiser, of course, than ever and generous to share her humour and wisdom with us in her books. Eat her words up, and fill your ears with her heartfelt music ; ) Happy Birthday and Steady on, Jann!!
Jann, Jann, Jann ... all of us spoiled rotten kids drove their parents' land yachts. Your beautiful song strikes a chord with children of good, hard-working parents who accomplished independence because of their parents' hard work. Thank you for articulating how I feel about my imperfect parents every minute of every day.
I just love you and your music so much! You are on my bucket list to speak to you one day and profusely thank you for this song. It gives me chills every time I hear it. It literally make my heart smile and cry tears of joy. I played this over and over for my mother and sang to her on her deathbed. She loved this song like I do. It’s an absolutely beautiful song. I thank you Jann. You are absolutely beautiful in spirit and body. My hero.
I love each piece you sing and write Jann . Thank you for your magic .. it’s held me and nurtured my heart and soul for years . Can’t wait to see you again in concert soon 💚
Thank you so much Jann. You have brought hope and a peaceful, easy feeling into my life tonight. I am grateful. PS: I made a video response just for you on my channel. I hope you can check it out. You are pretty cool chicka. Much love.
PS: Im gonna show our thread to the bosses at the radio station tomorrow and ask for a 30 min slot to talk about it. If they agree, can we work out permissions to air your video and this song and maybe do a live interview to tie it all together?

As I've said before, Jann hasn't gotten the recognition she should. Her voice is amazing.

I take this song from a completely different point of view. Everything she says has, I don’t. And never wanting anything so bad is the irony of it.
