I got into them in 2011, and so it's been almost 10 years since I last listened to this classic~ Definitely my favourite off of Famous Last Words no doubt
This song reminds me of my 22, I was a poor Mexican in Vancouver, who made a living preparing shawarmas in a Lebanese restaurant, my distraction was hearing a lot of music at work all day while this song was playing again and again on radio. 12 years later I am Public Relations Manager at a University and I miss as hell that simple life, I thought that a good job would give me happiness, now I realize that having almost nothing and enjoying the little details like that song was happiness.
I'm a metalhead, i never really listened to anything in the mainstream. But when you're depressed and thinking crazy thoughts, sometimes you need songs like this. The vibrant, uplifting songs, that make you feel good. They make you happy, they bring some sunshine into your life. It's songs like these that genuinely save me from absolute shit :')
Honestly, this is one of the songs that helped me when I was really down. When I felt depressed, I would just sing this softly, wishing to feel better and to keep believing. Thanks Hedley!
That's so sweet. I was really depressed and walking down the street one day and a little kid that was maybe 4 or 5 was with his mom, and as he skipped down the street I over heard him singing Hedley's "Better Days". I think the line was like "better days, better days, are not too far away" or something and it just meant so much to me. I didn't even know it was a Hedley song until I looked up the lyrics. I really needed it!
I honestly love this band, been listening to them since they fist came out. THIS song helped me through a few losses. It has always gotten me out of slumps :)
Hedley is what makes us Canadian's be PROUD to be Canadian, and they can seriously take a real life situation and make it a song, and a GOOD song, I love how I'm listening to this in 2012 XD thumbs up!
You know what's awesome? Jacob grew up here, In Surrey. He went to my School. He went to the High school that I'll be going to next year. His name is craved there in the Drama Theater. I've never been so proud!
Thank you very much for this connection! I'm 54. Duran Duran were popular in my youth but I wasn't much of a fan. I was aware that Patrick Nagel did the album cover for Rio, but I had never seen the video. I had no idea that this video wasn't totally original. Hedley's video producers certainly paid homage to (or plagiarized!) Duran Duran. Thanks again!
song of the day: 04/09/2015: I was on a beach for the first time last Saturday. No great sprawling picture-worthy sandscape, just a sliver of clean land against a lake was the best the Toronto Islands could afford. At the 21 that I am, I'd seen every angle from every over saturated CSI Miami-like glamour shot of a beach scene, so it was these shots that I was merely experiencing last Saturday. There was, however, after years of cold and rain in my head a couple minutes of just lying there, uncorrupted, unhinged and thoroughly immersed; quite sincerely believing that perhaps it wasn't too late to start again. Perhaps I didn't need to, because whatever it is that got me from the nervous and shivering boy listening to Hedley like it was a wish list to lying tits up on a warm summer afternoon without any reservations, probably isn't through with me yet. So here's to all the broken hearts, girl and boy looking for joy: keep steady, it comes.
Song of the day 29.11.2017/ mostly i’m just tired-maybe thats the irrefutable cue of a new beginning: feeling totally shit-mixed. (Ah, has it been two years already since Rowan and Ariel in the sand (and that Russian girl)?). Ariel is gone and so is Rowan. These things, they happen.
Hedley is sooo amazing!!! And it's awesome their Canadian too!!! I LOVE them sooo much!! This is honestly my favourite song of all time! It always makes me feel happy!
You're not alone, my friend. I love this song too. I love this band. I even met this band this year on their hello world tour. Best night and concert ever!!!!
This band needs more recongnition. They're awesome. I love them. They should be popular worldwide. Not just in Canada. This band should be as popular as Justin Bieber. They make real music. Justin Bieber doesn't. Some people are seriously missing out on awesome music if they don't know this awesome band.
This is the reason why Hedley is so popular. They have the perfect type of upbeat music that is good, and has fantastic life lessons. People who hate Hedley are just too arrogant to try and figure out what the message is.
I remember when this video came out ❤️ now it’s 2018 and all this crazy shit is going on. I don’t want to say goodbye yet. I’m not ready they are my favourite band and I will always love them #istandwithhedley
Its never too late get up and start all over again you know its never too late theres got to be a better way dont settle for the cold and rain its not to late to start again ------------------amazing lyrics!!!!
guys.....i used to listen to this song all the time wene i was like 6 and up its 2017 now so this song is really old and i still listen to it today its my favoritw song still♥♥♥♥
14 years ago this song was brand new. I remember watching the video and thinking “Omg they’re so old ew” . Now I watch this and I think Wow they look young lol
Never really listen to hedley unless it was on the radio.. This song was playing today and pretty much it's been in my head kinda helping me through the stressful week I've been having..
it's so important to have something in your day that you can smile about, i know what it's like to have such a depressing outlook on life cuz everything sucks in your life, so to find one thing to smile about at least once a day is really important (Find a way to smile and NEVR let it get away) and also try to make other ppl who are having a bad day smile, you don't know how much it helps.
no problem, heartbreak happens to everyone. but the best way to deal with it is to relate to someone, even if its a perfect stranger, and know that even if you're feeling alone, you're not, because there are 8 billion people in this world, and so many of them are going through the same feelings we are going through. =) you're going to find someone who puts you in first place and doesnt make you feel second best. you'll see =)
I love Hedley, so so much. They incredibly talented, and are just, kjshgfjh. With out them, I wouldn't be as close to the friends I have now, I love them so much
This hit me right in the nostalgia.
Me too
Yessir
Right in the nostalgia nuts

Wow, Im really curious to know how u are doing right now

This brings back so many memories.
I was in grade 5 when I first heard this song
@@johnroussakis4541 be careful grade 5 is the age group Hedley likes
U have no idea
Right!!!
Hedley and Marihanas Trench are the happiest and have the most inspiring music. Great work guys :)
ikr.
+Sleeping With The Unicorns I've met both 🙈
+taylor may weally? I Wuved teh hedley concert ish was amazing
Omg ikr xD
OMG YASSSSSSS
whenever i listen to hedley i feel proud to be Canadian. thumbs up if you agree!!!
"Find a way to smile and never let it get away" Guess I should keep listening to Hedley, because they make me smile big time. (:
Definitely a great positive song, right!
"You know it's never too late", right!?? 🤣✌️🇨🇦
I honestly love this band, been listening to them since they fist came out. THIS song helped me through a few losses. It has always gotten me out of slumps :)
I saw Hedley play at a free concert in Richmond, BC back in the day. They sounded even better in person.
Jesus christ this was released 16 years ago...excuse me, but where the fuck did the time go?
Hedley is what makes us Canadian's be PROUD to be Canadian, and they can seriously take a real life situation and make it a song, and a GOOD song, I love how I'm listening to this in 2012 XD thumbs up!
I wasn’t going to say nothing but considering the past little bit This comment did not age well. 😂
Can't say i am much of a Hedley fan but this song takes me back in time and i love it
"find a way to smile, and never let it get away" powerful
This song brings me hope when I'm feeling down, absolutely love it!
This is one of earliest childhood memories
Hedley is literally amazing. Known of them forever, loved them forever
You know what's awesome? Jacob grew up here, In Surrey. He went to my School. He went to the High school that I'll be going to next year. His name is craved there in the Drama Theater. I've never been so proud!

This song saved my life a few years ago ♥
Love the fact that this is a shot for shot remake of Duran Duran's Rio.
I'm Canadian!!! Awesome song!
I haven’t heard this song in a long time but I like this song 💪🏻💪🏻
Wow 14 years ago and this is still a bop! ❤
am i the only one who completely bursts out in laughter at jacob´s head shakingin the beginning? XD
I miss this group I know that any of Headley's songs help me through some good times and bad times. I miss you Jacob hoggard.

Hedley is sooo amazing!!! And it's awesome their Canadian too!!! I LOVE them sooo much!! This is honestly my favourite song of all time! It always makes me feel happy!
Good effort trying to re-make the video for Duran Duran's "Rio". This makes me realize how amazing Duran Duran's videos were!
IS this an insult to Hedley?
Your answer will determine my next response and I'm pretty sure you know what I mean by that...
I remember when this song was on the radio. This was once my favourite song.
2016 ..still fricken love this song 👌😁
You're not alone, my friend. I love this song too. I love this band. I even met this band this year on their hello world tour. Best night and concert ever!!!!
+Awesomejuggler20 I went to their wild life concert
Mysteerio88 Nice. Same here. Which concert did you go to on that tour?
Right
Awesomejuggler20 I cant remember which city, but it was in Canada/british columbia
this song needs way more recognition. IMO it's one of the best ever made
one of my happy songs ;)
I think that Hedley did a really awesome job at making their videos and I love all of their songs
Still watching this in 2016
Jacob really wishes it wasn’t too late that he stayed on that sail boat and whisked off into the sunset forever 😂
LMFAOOOOO
LMFAOOOOO
these guys came from a city right beside mine (abbostford, im from vancouver (ya that makes me cool))
Jacob Hoggard is from Surrey......................
Sara Kishawi im from Surrey, what part of Surrey is he from?
This song was released on my birthday... Does that make me cool?
Nickolas Smitholas no. the coolness is reserved for me. nice try though. better luck next universe
Ah well... At least I got to converse with someone who's "cool".
I didn't know they made cute music like this. This is really nice!
Anyone watching in 2019???

this song taught me to not give up when things gets hard, thank you,
gotta love how he always looks like he's having a seizure when he sings
lol I thought he had cerebral palsy
This song deserves more views omg.. Who think Hedley is underestimated??
This band needs more recongnition. They're awesome. I love them. They should be popular worldwide. Not just in Canada. This band should be as popular as Justin Bieber. They make real music. Justin Bieber doesn't. Some people are seriously missing out on awesome music if they don't know this awesome band.
Awesomejuggler20 he raped someone so I don't think so
Awesomejuggler20 ** multiple people
This is the reason why Hedley is so popular. They have the perfect type of upbeat music that is good, and has fantastic life lessons. People who hate Hedley are just too arrogant to try and figure out what the message is.
I never knew Hedley sang this.....
Still one of my most memorable songs. The first song ive ever heard from you guys . You guys are an inspiration
RIP Much Music
“They let it get away”damn smh now that I’m older a lot of these songs really do hit harder

Ah the gold memories of good music and good times, missing them deeply.
reminds me of the Duran Duran video with a similar theme and outfits.
It's a parody of it :D
Yes both videos have the similar concept to them.
not a parody but a homage
Hedley is the best band from Canada...
Im gone, im gone, theres gotta be a better way im gone....to jail lol
Never really listen to hedley unless it was on the radio.. This song was playing today and pretty much it's been in my head kinda helping me through the stressful week I've been having..
Too bad Jacob is a terrible person this band could behave been way better
Shut up dork. She knew what she was getting
Hedley is one of the only bands who know how to have fun with their music.
it's so important to have something in your day that you can smile about, i know what it's like to have such a depressing outlook on life cuz everything sucks in your life, so to find one thing to smile about at least once a day is really important (Find a way to smile and NEVR let it get away) and also try to make other ppl who are having a bad day smile, you don't know how much it helps.
I don't understand how this doesn't have more views.
Aww all the memory coming in my head gosh love it
no problem, heartbreak happens to everyone. but the best way to deal with it is to relate to someone, even if its a perfect stranger, and know that even if you're feeling alone, you're not, because there are 8 billion people in this world, and so many of them are going through the same feelings we are going through. =) you're going to find someone who puts you in first place and doesnt make you feel second best. you'll see =)
Such a unique and funky tune. Love it.
Top 5 Canadian bands of the 2000s for sure!
En aquella época vivía en Gatineau y me trae muchos recuerdos esta canción.
