Thank you 🙏🏽. ❤️
When I was a kid we hung out with Alan Jackson all weekend at the Missouri State Fair. It was a year before he got real famous back in 1991. He played in a bud tent. My dad owned a pipeline business at the time and I remember him asking my dad if he could go to work on the pipeline because he didn't think he would make it in country music. My dad told him don't worry Alan, you're gonna make it. And my dad was right. Alan was very down to earth and one of the nicest guys you could meet.
Awesome story
Yeah I met Alan and he is an amazing and talented man that has a lot of wonderful music to share with the world
Great story!!
He's still the same person after so many years. He has remained true to his roots and it's made him my #1 country music singer ever.
Tell your dad I said THANK YOU
If you're here you've got great taste in music.
Absolutely true, country music is best , those guys have nice voices.
I'm still celebrating my 77th birthday since March 6th, 2024 🎉 I stand by this song 🎵 ❤
❤
happy birthday
Happy Birthday, the best wishes come from Germany🎉
March 6th is a great day to be born ❤
Happy birthday
"The older I get, the longer I pray. I don't know why, I guess that I got more to say".
The most beautiful line I've heard in a long time. For me it captures the essence of what it means to get older. Love it.
Great comment and what a fantastic name you have Eindhoven.
exactly 💯. couldn't of said it better
a songwriter
His nefew is one hell of a songwriter
@@charlesgreen9468

This has to be one of the most honest and heartfelt songs I have ever heard! Thank you Alan.
Hi fan
@@alanjackson7196 God bless you. ❤️
yes it is... very very very true
It’s one of the greatest country songs of all time. By far.
indeed
I'm 58yrs old, 2yrs away from being 60. I can relate so much to the words of this song at this stage of my life, all of it is true. The older I get, the more thankful I am for the life that I've had thus far, irrespective of terrible childhood days and a few disappointments in my life. The older I get, the more I get to pray, in fact I never stopped praying, cause I just got too much to say, too much I still need and best of all so much to thank God for. Love this song, wow. 😊 😊 😊
Life is indeed so beautiful ❤️
You Kids! With All your crazy musics and clothes!
I'm 74 (almost 75. which means my age will soon match my IQ :-) )
Praying...Only ALL THE TIME. Even if its just saying Thanks for hitting all the stop light green. I think God likes that. The little small miracles that happen every day.
I was thinking the exact same thing that you just said, I also am 58 and I just can't get enough of this song, been thinking I'm getting old, but actually I'm not getting old, I'm just living longer and I thank God for that, but this song says it all, maybe I am just getting to the best years of my life, or at least some more good ones
Yeah, I can relate to this song and what you just said, I was already thinking✌️🤱🫶 and the praying part and thanking God continusley 🙏
Hi
The golden age of music
If you're reading this comment congratulations you have great taste in music.
Merci
❤
To everyone carrying a heavy heart in silence, it's gonna be okay someday.
God will heal your heart
thankyou
Thank you, I needed to read that.
Thank's my brother God bless you
I dont care about dieing it's just learning the ones i love and care about so much...... Sometimes you just wander why are you even here, if nobody gives a crap about you or anything........ The only peace i get is when i drink me a drink and listen to this music...... And heaven forbid if i do that....... Then everybody is pissed off.........i love everybody.........
I hope he heal mine
I lost my dad last year to cancer, but one thing he was careful to teach me and my siblings was to be thankful for what you have, set a positive example for others, and pay it forward.
This song made me think of those lessons, thank you.
Iam Chris. Mhsrp. Dad left you with a great gift. To be thankful... A great virtue indeed.
AMEN!
stand up dad!!!👍💯
I lost my dad and this is belong me he through it. I heard it, and do every day, at just the right time. It's like my Uncle Alan is like an Angel on Earth. Love it
It is well.
Life truly teaches us alot, I grew up on a small impoverished island in Uganda, but I as a young man, I had big dreams, as I grow older am 37 years now. This song becomes my anthem, thank you Allan Jackson.
This is the type of song that's supposed to be winning Grammy
same here!!!! or the cma
Grammy don't mean shit
Not possible. It has too much class for this generation
@@dannyjordan6530 yup your right there people would prefer rap sounds on country music.
@@astral5ramGrammy winners are forgotten in a week. Alan Jackson lives a lifetime
I want to thank you AJ for this song. My dad died in 2023 proceeding my mother in 2022. Well my dad loved this song. He used to sing this song on his karaoke machine. He wasn’t one for wanting much just to have a few beers relax with some friends, sing some songs and karaoke and this was one of them. Your song the older I get brought him great joy. I was lucky enough to record him, singing this song from start to finish, and it has become a treasure for me that I will never forget. So from my heart to yours.. Thank you and may God bless you and your family.
So touching😢 his soul rest in peace ✌️
Hello 👋 Hilda
You are good son
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
💜💜
The first time I heard this song I was holding my first baby, She was only a few months old. A daughter. Now she is next to me, asks if she can listen to this Alan Jackson song with me (almost 4 now)
That’s just a wonderful story! These children are our future, and you sound like a wonderful mother!! Thanks kindly for sharing!! Very touching!!! Respectfully, Laz
That’s soooo sweet, now you have a song with that child then huh? 😉 it was just meant to be ❤
Time passes and continues to pass. maybe at some point we will leave this world, but this music, good music will never go out of style. Great singers, great performers... simply incomparable 💖
maybe? :-) Try definitely leave this world.
The older I get, is getting more matured, honest and faithful and very serious in serving the Lord, for life is so short become more thankful what God done unto us.
Got to love him
I'm 64 know and there is so much truth to this song
Love the truth in this song! Your singing makes it wonderful 😂
Amen
That's me right now. Took over 50 yrs to become a better person. I'm not bad just getting wiser and thinking deeper now.
There is a lot of truth in that song. Brings tears to my eyes. My parents and grandparents are all gone. All this crap I’ve accumulated over the years I’d sell it all to have them back for one more week. Wished I’d learned that earlier. So beautifully said. Thank you Alan.
Muito obrigado por seu comentário. Me chamo André tenho 34 anos. Saiba que sua experiência e as de outras pessoas que hoje estão no topo da vida me ajudaram muito a dar o devido valor que as pessoas na minha vida merecem. Estou aprendendo a pensar em longo prazo e pessoas estarão sempre à frente de coisas materiais ainda que eu não tenha conforto na velhice não terei arrependimentos.
stargazrBrass, I'm really much Impressed with your Profile and personality, I also admire your good sense of humor on here, I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserved this compliment, how is the weather conditions there?
hi I'm mark Duncan have been hearing about Alan Jackson can you please tell me more about him?
Hello beautiful nice to meet you
Alan Jackson his songs mean so much to me! I am older, but I would not trade a day to be young again! I have earned every grey hair hair and wrinkle! I loved my life! God be with you all!
Thanks for your sincere compliment and love , i am not complete without you as my fan . I have you to be most thankful for
Ma'am Alan Jackson in my opinion is one of the best I've ever heard come across the radio. I remember going to the hunting camp with daddy when i was a boy early in the morning and hearing "Chasing that neon rainbow" my dad was killed few years later in a freak accident. Im now 39 years old and to this day when i hear that song it puts me back in that seat beside him headed up 17 to Needham, Al. I wish i could change a few things about my life.. Life for me has been less than spectacular as since dads accident im scared to love in fear of loss. Scared to death of the horrific just unexplainable world of hurt thats possible in case of unexpected loss of life or relationship. Your comment caught my attention for sure. Hope you have a blessed day to come
My favorite singer.willalways listen to your music my dear friend.
@@alanjackson5086 It's nice to know that people of your stature take the time to read and reply to comments made by folks like us ( the regular people)
This song speaks so much to real people who've been through that dark path and found their way out of it. All I can say is you're a great man with a great talent.
True
After the Covid pandemic, i love this song so much, and think about it every night: "the older i get, the more thankful i feel, for the life i had and the life i living still"
Tracey Cole I understand completely. I've been down that path and lived to tell the story. God is great
Speaks to the soul 🥰🥰❤️❤️🙏🏼
it speaks to all whatever journey they are on. dark or light. all people are real, not just the ones you choose.

The older I get, the more thankful I am. For my wife of 36 years, both of my daughters, my son, 8 granddaughters, 1 grandson and a soon to be great granddaughter. For some reason this song has hit me hard and has brought back so many memories of good times past!

Hi
Sitting alone, lights off, and letting sad country songs speak to my mood. It feels like I have a companion who understands every aspect of suffering and hope.
Never read it wote any better

And the older I get
The more thankful I feel
For the life I've had, and all the life I'm living still…

Back in the year 2000, I bought my first computer for college. Inside, the seller forgot a CD with music, it was Alan Jackson's music, since then I have not stopped listening and enjoying it. A great artist. Greetings from Argentina.
That’s a really cool story. Love it!
What a blessing!
Argentina you say
Here I am, 80 years old, my best years yet, the better I am. Family and friends mean so much.
Thanks for the continuous love and support ❤️❤❤

Well say Allan! You're a great philosopher also! :🌵🏜️👌
this is real country ❤... thank you for this.. it's a Truly beautiful Song Mr Jackson
❤️
Amen a true country song. If they played songs like this I would still listen to “country radio.” Luckily we have a station here that plays the old stuff (60s-90s, some 00s) and new songs like this. They realize they have an audience that still wants to hear actual country music.
Hey it's true.
AIAN JACKSON
mike- rayner-videos how the hell is this any more or less real country compared to anything else in the country genre
This song is so true in saying the things of life as we get older. I am 71 now and married to my lovely wife of now 50 years. She is my right arm of which I could never live without. I love my kids and grandchildren more than all the money in the world. My health is not that good but I thank God for every minute he gives me. Life goes by so fast - don't take anything for granted. Thanks Alan for sharing your God given talent and writing such beautiful heart loving songs. The older I get the more I love. God bless.
I'm 47 and feel exactly the same.
You said it the way I'd like to say it now and 20 years later.
We'll all know each other one each so I say love you friend
Who replays this masterpiece multiple times before he or she can leave here???
Beautiful
Me
When I start playing it all others have to be forgotten 😂
At 76 years old this song has a lot of meaning to me. AJ is one of the best to ever hit Nashville .
Hi
78 and Ditto
Well Hello@@JasmineBrooks-iy4xb
I’m a 78 woman and I agree with this song. I love it and I love Allan Jackson.
This song really teach me to live life..
This is one of the greatest country songs, by one of the worlds greatest country singers. Perfectly done Mr Jackson. keep releasing these meditative and inspirational songs, they've really taught me a lot. LOVE AND BLESSINGS.
Tomorrow is Alan Jackson's birthday, he's going to be 63 and still just as amazing as he was when he started his career in 1989. Hopefully everyone to reads this will wish him a Happy Birthday
I could listen to Alan Jackson all day long he he sings from his ❤ 💙 💜 💖 💗 💘 ❤ 💙 💜 💖
My ❤ hurts to hear Alan Jackson has a medical problem may God bless you Alan and your family 👪
I'm the same age as Alan 64 and have the neurological disease he has CMT.This song means a lot to me. God bless you Alan.
Hello there, how're you doing??
What neurological disease? I didn't know! I had a ruptured brain aneurysm in 2012 and it took 9 brain surgeries to fix it. It's hereditary in my family. I was clinically dead for 6 minutes and was resuscitated and spent time in a coma on life support. I will never take a single second of my life for granted ever again. 12 years later I'm blessed to still be here. I was only 48 when I had the brain hemmorage and I'll be 60 next month. And I'm thankful! Not everyone has the chance to get old so cherish every moment you get. I consider this the greatest blessing of my life because it's what made me believe in God!! So blessed!!!!❤🙏✝️
@@marietrickey9039 hello

This song reminds me about my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there are some pain I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people.
One of my favourite songs of Alan Jackson. God bless you and your family abundantly.. you're a real country singer..love your voice.

Almost 68, I relate to this song, straight to the heart. Life is a road you've never been on, an never know what's around the next bend. It's been a hoot, I wouldn't change anything, not even the bad.
I know what you mean! First husband went to Vietnam, married at 16! He came home a different person! We split, met a new man together over 22 years! Got sick! Lost him in 2016! I have my family and Granddaughter, I will be alright! God be with you and yours!
This song reminds me of my life. At 41 I met this woman who's 48 now I know what my old man meant. Sometimes it's one of those don't give damn!
Alan Jackson this is one of my favorites.... The older I get my forever friend and I played and listened to this song every day, before she died . 😢❤
Love this song! It’s so true and so real!🥰

I was born only 6 days before Alan and what he’s saying is so true! Life’s blessings are family, friends and the wisdom we gain from God’s provision. I’m blessed beyond measure and I am so thankful!
That's very true 👍🏿
@Alan Jackson Been a fan about 12 years. I didn't like country music until my husband and I joined a band. We're The Backroom Band in Mobile, AL. He's 81 and has been practicing this one to try it with our band. We play at nursing homes, cancer/diabetes/walks. We like to play music and spend some time spreading our joy with others who don't get out much. I'm a contry music fan now. I play keyboard, sing Patsy Cline, Adele and more. I love this song. It's so true. We've been married 41 years, getting to those older years.

Thank you @alanjackson, for being the man you are, for finding your calling, for standing up for what's right, for the incite you pour into your lyrics. I pray for your health sir
I say AMEN upon this sincere comment...
Dad passed in 2021, grandpa passed in 2022.. everyone in my family is getting older now. This song really hits me hard. Man I miss them. Life is definitely short
Sorry to hear such ...take heart ok
Thanks for sharing this story. I love Alan Jackson to bits. Listen to all his songs.
I'm 2 weeks away from my 27th birthday, this song has me appreciating everything in my life, learnt millions of lessons, and every word he utters makes more sense, I can't unhear his beautiful voice. It's funny how I'm living my dream and still know my best years are yet to come. If you're younger than me reading this, have a little patience, the older you'll get, everything you've gone through will make sense.
Love Lou😘
Hello Louise, how're you today!!!
I turned 30 in May and I’m telling you just the past few months my life is getting better than it ever has in my 20s.
I'm 39 years old, I've finally been sober a year, and I'm realizing a lot of stuff. The older I get. This song hits home, I want it played at my funeral.
Congratulations!!! I’m so proud of you. I know the struggle of addiction. One minute at a time. So so proud of you
Thank you
Even when 2030 comes ,I will still be here .if yu believe in my prophecy, give me a like ..❤
Alan Jackson is a national treasure. The man has been kicking out hits since Day 1. Great song
Thanks for the continuous love and support
For how long have you been a fan of mine?
Touches my heart every time I hear these beautiful words and Alan's God given voice ❤
Thanks for your continuous love and support ❤
Hello beautiful nice to meet you
Anyone who appreciates great country music ❤❤❤
Hello there, how are you doing?
I’m 76. I realize the meaning of this song now
Better than ANYTHING on the radio today..true to everything he believes in...
If you don't understand the words to this song as you age, you'll never understand life. Especially, when you all hit near 80 years of age. May you all live long prosperous and healthy lives, with much love and peace.
I was born on 6th March 1991, and I didn't hear this legends voice until 99. I was instantly sold and I'm still listening to his awesome story telling music, also I'm from New Zealand and I can't not love this mans music. I'm 33 this year 2024 and I've listened to almost all of his soundtracks. Your a true gift from God Alan, and I feel so unfortunate to never have gone to one of you're concerts. But God was kind enough to let you record you're songs for the world to hear, and I'm glad to have at least heard you're songs and that's enough for me. God give you all the blessings you deserve man. Absolutely privilaged to have heard your voice. God bless you man❤❤❤
This generation need this kind of music 💖
Just like Jesus, this song never gets old.
Stellar voice and melody from Alan Jackson
indeed 100% Jesus is coming back soon.
Amen!!
Thats true for me
You got that right! God bless✝️☮️
I absolutely adore Alan Jackson. He is my idol and have loved him since I could listen to music back in 1993 (was born in '93). I have never seen him in concert, but this is my dream. I cannot even express in words what it would mean to me to be able to see him. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to see him when he will be coming to Boots and Hearts in 2018. He has taught me many valuable lessons, he has been there when I loved and when I lost, he has helped me through the good times and the bad. You could almost say he was apart of our family, always will be. All I can say is thank you Alan! Xo

Oh AJ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS SONG!! I just turned 60 last month and my little brother played this song for me when I flew from my home in Alaska to Wisconsin so we could celebrate our birthdays together. For a long time I was so upset at not remembering my 50th birthday but that can be forgiven because I had just my 9th brain surgery after a hereditary brain aneurysm ruptured in my head in 2012 and I survived it!! I feel like every word of this song is so true and now I feel thankful, grateful and blessed! Changing your attitude to gratitude made all the difference! Instead of complaining about what I don't have I changed to being thankful for what I DO have!! I'm not homeless, I own my own home. I'm not going hungry and that is a lot more than some people have. I was clinically dead for 6 minutes and in a coma and I'm still above the dirt. I consider dying the greatest gift God ever gave me because it made me believe in God! I learned to walk again and do all kinds of things that I couldn't do in 2012. I woke up today and told Jesus thank you just because I woke up!! And in your words if they found the foundation of youth I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth! This song is so beautiful and so true for me so God bless you and your beautiful family and THANK YOU!!!❤️🙏✝️
Each line of this song is just truth..the reality of life is well depicted. I am 45 now..I can feel it!!!
I'm 24 and this song inspired me everyday, I listen to it at least twice a day at work. And once on the way home and I remember all the blessings I've been handed even through my struggles
When I'm 40,50,60,70... years of age. I will always come back to this song.
Goes faster. Don't forget to check in.
Same here. Although the older I get it has more meaning and becomes more precious
Amen bro
I am lacking a few months of being 80 and love this song and just remember life is like a roll of Toilet Paper, the closer to the end the Faster it goes!!!!
Just about to turn 60 how Tru it is ✌️♥️
Whenever I listen to this song....I feel as if it was meant for me❤❤❤
Hello Mary, how're you doing today!!!
Love it and yes sitting here with stage four breast cancer more true than ever!!!

The older I get
The more I think
You only get a minute, better live while you're in it
'Cause it's gone in a blink
And the older I get
The truer it is
It's the people you love, not the money and stuff
That makes you rich
And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet
The older I get
The fewer friends I have
But you don't need a lot when the ones that you got
Have always got your back
And the older I get
The better I am
At knowing when to give
And when to just not give a damn
And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet
The older I get
And I don't mind all the lines
From all the times I've laughed and cried
Souvenirs and little signs of the life I've lived
The older I get
The longer I pray
I don't know why, I guess that I've
Got more to say
And the older I get
The more thankful I feel
For the life I've had and all the life I'm living still
🙂👍😗
😊 thanks
How beautiful and so true
😢
The older I get am getting more focused on life this a journey of many discovery.

Whenever l listen to this song ,in the garden while digging ,,,, l feel happy and the strength to move on with my life,, with no friends
I have vivid memories as a boy riding down forestry service roads in my dad's jeep listening to pop a top and drive, and now I'm 31 and have kids of my own. You sir are a staple in my life and a shining lite in a dim music industry. Many thanks for all the wonderful music and the wonderful memories Alan 🙏❤️
