    Omg this song meant everything when I was in school. I'd listen to this song. I used to be bullied a lot and I would always feel hopeless. This song would carry me through the day and for her to do a cover of it makes it even more special to me omg. 💕💕💕💕

      When I was younger I never listened to lyrics and its only looking back I realise how beautiful this song really was.

    Two years later I still listen to this sometimes when I need a little encouragement, like now.
    This is my favorite of your covers Kina, as I can hear your kindness and empathy coming through the song.
    Thank you for this and how you try to take your own struggle and pain and turn it into music that encourages and uplifts others, you're a lovely soul.

      I agree. My ex was all over the original song and it got kinda annoying. This version I can get on with xD

  • @stevemadrid6522

    Even though I was 30 when this song came out I always thought it was fun and loud and positive. I loved the pop-punk period. Well, now I'm older and I have a teenage daughter and I see her struggle with growing up and fitting in and finding herself. I never realized I've been preaching this message to her since she was 5 years old. I can see she doesn't follow the crowd and is into what SHE likes, no matter what her friends like. Stay strong!

    I'm having one of the worst days if not the worst day I've had in a long time and playing this on repeat is keeping me from having an anxiety attack. Thank you for your music, Kina. Your voice is healing.

    Z100 (NYC) played your version this morning. It brought tears to my eyes because the original version by Jimmy Eat World was one of my father's favorite songs at that time (back when he was still alive). Your version brings the words much more front and center. I'm going through some tough times right now, but this made me feel like there's always some glimmer of hope. We have to keep moving forward, hoping and praying for the best as we go. Thanks for making such a great cover of a really iconic song.

    @honeymaefuentes8891 7 років тому +4

    I never thought about the meaning of the lyrics until now. It's important that people recognize their struggles as normal and as a part of something much bigger---happiness. In many ways, we hold on to life a little tighter when we meet people that are humble about their personal struggles. You empower your listeners when you share pieces of your reality in your music. You are a genuine leader and I hope that more people understand and respect humility the way that you do.

    I realize that I never took the time to listen your covers, and I am glad to say that you are very talented.

You make a really good job, thank you for remember me my teenage days in your own style !

    I LOVE this song!!! It always makes me feel...blissful. I mean, not that school was great or not (and not that J can be a judge of that), it's just the this song made me feel all floaty, like I wanna cry but instead I just feel empty and wistful. The lyrics are great, too, a bit down but hopeful. Great song for lots of people.

    Hey
    Don't write yourself off yet
    It's only in your head you feel left out, looked down on
    Just try your best
    Try everything you can
    And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away
    It just takes some time
    Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
    Everything, everything will be just fine
    Everything, everything will be all right
    Hey
    You know they're all the same
    You know you're doing better on your own so don't buy in
    Just live right now
    Just be yourself
    Doesn't matter if that's good enough for someone else
    It just takes some time
    Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
    Everything, everything will be just fine
    Everything, everything will be all right
    It just takes some time
    Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
    Everything, everything will be just fine
    Everything, everything will be all right
    Hey
    Don't write yourself off yet
    It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on
    Just do your best
    Do everything you can
    Don't you worry what their bitter hearts are gonna say
    It just takes some time
    Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
    Everything, everything will be just fine
    Everything, everything will be all right
    It just takes some time
    Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
    Everything, everything will be just fine
    Everything, everything will be all right
    It just takes some time
    Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride
    Everything, everything will be just fine
    Everything, everything will be all right

    the M-Machine recommends this to me often, and well done al g. o'rithm, because what a distillation of what is good in this world...
    'don't write yourself off yet'
    'do your best'
    'things will get better'
    'it's all a journey'
    'KEEP TRYING'
    and even as my soul burns my eyes can frolic in the play-ground of those curls, and be swept along with the light

    How do you guys keep doing this? You keep covering songs I loved when I was younger and somehow making them completely new amazing works of art ☺️ The lyrics of this song really lend themselves to a softer treatment ~ it feels so much more immediate and encouraging this way. And don't you worry yourself about whether what you do is good enough...look how our little label has grown! So many are saying yes to you and what you stand for, and it is most certainly enough today, tomorrow, and always. Much love to you, Jesse, and the fam ❤️🎶😊
