Yes, real musicians: Singers/Songwriters. I can't stand that most consider them a one-hit wonder and the mention of them just brings them to Mmmmbop (still a great song). Have seen them live a few times. Love it!
Our boys have done it again. Never "conformed", never caved, just did what they believed in and they deserve respect for that. It's so rare today to just have good, clean music. And Hanson has always done it that way.
Real talent. Real people. No pretentions. They don't need to be in the Mainstream to prove their worth and greatness. They're very special, unique, & amazing. They have very loyal and supportive fan base in different parts of the globe. Hanson is really the best band since 1997! 🙌💖
They came back to Mexico in 2017 at Plaza Condesa hall and I was delighted with their show, song after song, very energetic, enthusiastic and that beautiful music they do... Ahhhh! A great show!!! ❤️
As a homeschool mom my children adopted this song as their ANTHEM! Not only is it just so fitting but I am beyond proud at their musical influence and taste ♥️💚💙
Lifelong Hanson fan, and I have to say, this is some of the finest work they've put out in the last few years. This song should be all over the radio right now!
Allyson Heller lets do it call up all of the radio stations around you and ill do the same and let's get this song out there and make these guys big again... I think they could be bigger than in the 90's.
No bullshit, no profanity, no cussing...just pure music, pure magic. No wonder why most of the 90's music makers were wonderful...errr, wait, they still are the best!
Dear Hanson Brothers: Thank you for sharing your beautiful family and your beautiful music with all of us! Been a fan since the 90s! I share your music now with my own kids!
I really don't understand: is it this clip and song on MTV and radio??? It Must be!? It's the real HIT!!! Kind, lovely, beautiful, deep, honest, true... Like ALWAYS!!! From HANSON!!!@ These guys never stopped!!! Today's popular music is so awful like world in our days!!! PEOPLE!!! Are you CRAZY???
What beautiful men they have become. Im so impressed with the love they have for their families they are truly blessed with talent. Keep singing boys because you have just gotten better with age.
I was obsessed with them in 1997, and that obsession lasted a good 10 years. I'm so happy to see that their love for music, for each other and for the fans hasn't wavered. (and DAMN tay's still as hot as ever XD )
I knew when I took my kids to see them live back in the Mmm Bop days, that this was not just another boy band.They're the real deal--gifted, top-level artists. I love the message, the song, the kids, all of it. Wonderful!
Hanson prove you can be successful and happy without being all over the mainstream and literally selling your soul. That is if you have 'real' talent of course. Which they do! Im the same age as Taylor. Grew up in the era of MmmBop and so great to see all three with families and still doing what they love and doing it really well! Such an inspiration.
@@marissamae7820 I hear it on Sirius XM channel 78 from time to time. In fact I heard it today on there which is why I had to hear it on here too. Yeah it’s the children’s station Kid’s Place Live but at least they do get radio play.
Omg!!!! I can't get over these kids. Isaacs older son is so charming! Daddies twin! Then you have Penny- I mean what beautiful kids! You can tell these kids are well behaved than your average. Ufff love this song
This is amazing song my daughter is going though some bad time with bullying at school. I was playing this and she sat listen to the song and she been playing this in her room. She getting so much stronger listing to this song and she being her self more and more each day. I want to say thank you to hanson for this song. It's help me more than anything thank you
Paula R thank you for kind words my daughter is getting there its her favourite song coming out of her room more spending time with her friends just something so small can mean the world to some else
I was bullied second grade through twelfth. I almost succeeded in suicide when I was sixteen. I was in a coma for four days. Now, I'm thirty two with a nine year old girl. Hanson saved my life.
I listened to mmmbop with my kids on repeat when they were little- I'm now listening to "I Was Born" with my grandson on repeat. I told him it was his theme song. He has taken it to heart. He tells his stuffed animals, (and everyone else...) "This is my theme song-I was born to be someone, go somewhere and do something..."
Their not a comercial bands like 30 seconds to Mars AND other bands, the lyrics and the video is honest. Is very glad to ser but not to the music industry
I seriously think me and my two year old are half the views on this video! crazy to think I have a second generation Hanson fan!! Can't wait to see them live again in Melbourne this June!!
Hanson really needs to make this video public so that more people can find this. This is such an awesome song and music video and everyone needs to see this!
Great song!!! Introducing kids to Hanson is a wonderful way to encourage them to stick with their music practice. I show my class their Mmbop hit when Hanson were kids, then show the kids Hanson doing it live as adults. Now I can show Hanson doing a song with their own kids. Full circle of inspiration!!!!! Gotta love this wonderful group of young men. They are so talented.
This song is amazing and Hanson is definitely underrated. Appreciate more hopeful/positive lyrics like this paired with awesome and well thought beats.
I have to admite, it´s been 6 or 5 year since the last time I searched something about the band. With this music I should be ashamed of it, you´re amazing and listening to this song I remembered the reason why I were a huge fan of yours in 98.
Beautiful children, beautiful song, fantastic singers, gorgeous family. God bless you all. My favorite band since I was 6 years old. Hanson will never get old
I smiled for whole 3 minutes. This is the simplest and most beautiful thing I've ever seen. During the music video the feeling of "wow, times passes by so fast" grew from the beginning until the end. Feels like yesterday when me and them were kids and now they raised their own kids. Wow. Hanson is the proof that talent never ends. Every comeback is amazing. I'm never disappointed. I feel blessed for living at the same time as them and being able to appreciate their existence as artists, dads, husbands and people in general. I'll be eternally in love with them. Such amazing people!
They've actually made a bunch of albums under their own independent record label, 3CG. (Sort of underground) :-) But yeah, they're still definitely around and going strong! ❤
![The Corrs - Breathless [HD] - Official Music Video](/img/n.gif)
This should have been a big hit, but I guess it's too wholesome. Stick to your roots and keep God and Family before fame. Thank you for all you do

This is before the pandemic for 2020
One of the most beautiful videos on UA-cam.
Real musicians. Real songwriters. This is the secret. Great message. Great work.
This is an awesome comment and very true! :D
absolutely!
Agree on 100%!@ No ordinary band since 1997@ Beautiful, smart, deep, true, perfect@
Yes, real musicians: Singers/Songwriters. I can't stand that most consider them a one-hit wonder and the mention of them just brings them to Mmmmbop (still a great song). Have seen them live a few times. Love it!
Quint Randle Agree. I absolutely agree. Hanson were my very first favorite band. Now they're one of my greatest first favorites.
Theres a reason i have loved them for 24 years.
Our boys have done it again. Never "conformed", never caved, just did what they believed in and they deserve respect for that. It's so rare today to just have good, clean music. And Hanson has always done it that way.
I guess that's why I don't hear them on the radio. ☹
@@ardeethomas4916 facts , the radio is trash and for sell outs
0000000000
Good, clean, music? Why are you talking about artists, or me, like that? Should you learn about the world or whitewash it?
It's not rare. Dig deeper!
MY SON FOUND THIS SONG , HES 5 ! I LOVE MY BOYS AND THEY WILL BE VERY SPECIAL BECAUSE THEY WERE BORN FOR GREATNESS❤❤❤
Too bad there is not a LOVE button on UA-cam!
Real talent. Real people. No pretentions. They don't need to be in the Mainstream to prove their worth and greatness. They're very special, unique, & amazing. They have very loyal and supportive fan base in different parts of the globe. Hanson is really the best band since 1997! 🙌💖

As a 90s kid who listened to mmbop in high school, this video made me tear up. Make more music videos guys. 🙌. The world needs music like this.
:)
They've got a bunch, don't worry!! Not slowing down soon!
With Hanson, it's always been a family affair. I'm glad to see it's continuing!
Their kids are the cutest
As a homeschool mom my children adopted this song as their ANTHEM!
Not only is it just so fitting but I am beyond proud at their musical influence and taste ♥️💚💙

Allyson Heller I'm a lifer too, and this is one of my favorite songs of all time!
Allyson Heller I agree. This is one of the best songs and video they have done.
Allyson Heller ditto!!!! To all of the above!!!

Dear Hanson Brothers: Thank you for sharing your beautiful family and your beautiful music with all of us! Been a fan since the 90s! I share your music now with my own kids!
I WAS BORN.....to refresh this video!! :-)
YOU GUYS!!!!!! This is happiness.
Stacie McCarthy Stack Attack yes. if I could sum up this video in one word, "happiness" would be a good one!
I really don't understand: is it this clip and song on MTV and radio??? It Must be!? It's the real HIT!!! Kind, lovely, beautiful, deep, honest, true... Like ALWAYS!!! From HANSON!!!@ These guys never stopped!!! Today's popular music is so awful like world in our days!!! PEOPLE!!! Are you CRAZY???
just saw Hanson on Audience TV good tight sound-excellent vocals-get happy music bring in on men I am a 60 year old rocker Rock Steady!
What beautiful men they have become. Im so impressed with the love they have for their families they are truly blessed with talent. Keep singing boys because you have just gotten better with age.
Too wholesome and pure for this world.
Nads P Right! The trolls don't deserve this
and that's what's wrong with the world
we need some of that
There should be more "Hansons" in the world.
Yup!!!!!
It’s hit with me!, Hanson is awesome!
I am so ready for the Hanson Offspring Band - what a fun and talented family! #fansonforlife
I was obsessed with them in 1997, and that obsession lasted a good 10 years. I'm so happy to see that their love for music, for each other and for the fans hasn't wavered.
(and DAMN tay's still as hot as ever XD )
omg their kids are the cutest
I love how you can tell which child belongs to each band member from their looks. They are all so cute!
I knew when I took my kids to see them live back in the Mmm Bop days, that this was not just another boy band.They're the real deal--gifted, top-level artists. I love the message, the song, the kids, all of it. Wonderful!
They brought their kids along for the ride, with 11 out of 12 of their offspring appearing in the music video. Cute! :)

Mike Rundberg or in school ceremony, it's very inspiring ❤
Exactly this song needs to be on the radio!!!

love love love my Hanson and their kids super cute seeing them this October in Vegas 2017 yes
well i want to see the "making of the video", seems pretty fun! Awesome stuff
oh gosh yes...
that would be amazing!
I was thinking the same thing!
Ingrid Tacsan i do to and hear what the kids think about being in their first music video
Charlotte Flavell second for some of them, some of them were in TBS
How beautiful are these kids?! They all look like they'd be great people too ☺ need more love in the world 💌
I listened to mmmbop with my kids on repeat when they were little- I'm now listening to "I Was Born" with my grandson on repeat. I told him it was his theme song. He has taken it to heart. He tells his stuffed animals, (and everyone else...) "This is my theme song-I was born to be someone, go somewhere and do something..."
I'm pretty sure that we are responsible for 500,000 of the views...
Haha, that's awesome! :)
Sensational band and family. Now they’re real American idols!
I still can’t believe this song isn’t more popular. It’s so uplifting!
Yeah, right? Hanson should have been given more recognition. And their songs should be played on the radio once again!
Their not a comercial bands like 30 seconds to Mars AND other bands, the lyrics and the video is honest. Is very glad to ser but not to the music industry
You're right
And "This Time Around". MMmBop is great but they really have much better songs that never got the recognition.
@@RedMoonlight26If it was I might actually listen to modern mainstream music again.
BEST SONG EVER!!!!
loved seeing the next generation of Hanson's
THANK YOU HANSON!! I LOVE YOU - SO MUCH!
I bought the single. Nice work, gentlemen!
What lovely families. The wee grumpy girl is so cute! No idea who is her father!
That's Willa, Taylor's kid :)
Thank you. I've figured out a few of them by process of elimination. All beautiful children.
Here's a visual guide of the kids (with names) matched with their dads :D hansonph.net/2017/05/i-was-born-music-video-is-out/
sidle hahahahah
Thanks but it doesnt work.
Man, these kids know their way around a catchy tune. Excellent.
They know how to du good music and cute kids.
Could not have asked for a better video to accompany this track. Already inspiring, seeing the kids adds the perfect touch.
Yes, their kids. It's perfect!

I was born to be a Hanson fan...from the Philippines!

I love your beautiful souls!!!
Time to hit the garage and do more of this! It's nice to see a mature version of the talent, which obviously never went away.
They've put out six studio albums and new EPs every year. You have plenty of catching up to do. :)
i love how they use their own kids. What a great time to bond with the kids and get some work done too.
So so so inspiring for parents. Thanks guys!
The concert in Salvador it was unbelievable!! Amazing!! I will never forget that day 27/08/2017. So special!
This is legit going to be my summer jam of 2017.... just like mmmbop was one of my summer jams 20 years ago in 1997! ;)
I work at jcpennys and its Christmas time and they always play Christmas music but this is one of the only bangers that plays besides jingle bells
Beautiful children, beautiful song, fantastic singers, gorgeous family. God bless you all. My favorite band since I was 6 years old. Hanson will never get old

I love this! I am going to show it to my fifth-grade class and make it our theme. I love everything about it.
Loved it! and all your children!
