I lost my 15 year old nephew 3 months ago. He was my little brother. He hung himself after a lot of frustration from studies, rejection from a girl, beatings by his father, watching a younger brother with failed lever and kidneys and criticism from family for poor academic performance. I have always been an alter bridge fan and this song makes me remember my Samar. Samar rest in peace. One day i too will fly and find you again.
❤ sorry man, that is so hard to deal with. Suicide is overlooked, my goal in music is to prevent that from happening. Music is the cure if u dont fit in
My best best friend died on his 20th birthday. A couple of months before his tragic death I got him into 'Alter Bridge' I even bought him a ticket to see them live. This song was played at his funeral, 2 years ago. Every time I hear it, it bring floods of tears to my eyes and memories that can never be replaced. I love you man. X
We played this song at my sons funeral,Adam tragically died while on holiday with his 3 best mates,he went to see Alterbridge before he passed away and loved them,now I'm hooked on this special song for my special son xx
The whole beauty behind this song was that he wasn't even writing this to anyone in particular. All he had to do was think about losing someone close to him and these lyrics came about. Amazing.
The true hallmark of a great band is if they can REALLY make you feel something, and AB makes you feel shit ACROSS the fuckin board man, from pumped up head banging, to happy optimism, to longing sadness, they nail it every time, I don't even know how it's possible.
I'm sitting here playing this with my dad who is on his journey home and I will miss him and love him so much. Thank you dad for the father, friend and hero you have always been to me. Please love your family and don't worry about tomorrow. Love them each second of the day. I will remember you forever x
I absolutely feel your pain my brother....28 years, I still feel the pull as she settles once again In my wounded heart. It gets better, it flies away, but it always returns in the quietest moments. I've learned to cherish these times of remembering ❤️
I love reading comments on Alter Bridge songs. It goes to show how their music is resonant and relevant. I've found their music is like a refuge at times, reminding me that it's alright to be human and slip up; feel pain, where mostly there is pressure to get on with it and above all to succeed. It's like stepping out of work for a break into a garden and a bench. Every comment enriches the experience of listening; feeling all the shared emotion. In short: it really brings folks together : )
My friend died today. He told me years ago that he will play this song for his dog when that day comes. That dog meant the world for him and don’t get me wrong, it was one of a kind dog, so when Dog passed away the whole neighbourhood missed him. My friend really struggled without him. I can’t believe that today I’m playing this song for my Friend. Only 9 months later i have lost my friend. But now they are together again, walking through the same park. And they will be together forever. Rest in peas my dear friend. I will miss you both forever.
Beautiful song and Lyrics i lost my wife in 2015, 40 years together , and because i knew i couldnt speak in church because id breakdown, i had this played as it says all i wanted to say ,, brilliant ,,, i play this all the time when i reminicing of all our years , together ,,,
@@jasongidley2860 No, it's not anywhere close to the same. Sure members are the same minus Myles Kennnedy. The songs are a different style, and AB is much better and deeper. Their lyrics are much mature, and respected by people. Creed was okay. They are much better with Myles and as AB. They are also much different.
As I held my lil Peanut, a 10 year old dachshund 7 pounds, dying in my arms on the way to my nearest vet hospital...We didn't make it as I knew she was dying rapidly...I wish I could sing this to her every day for the rest of my life...so beautiful like she was.
I've come back here more times than i can count. ❤ For all the lonely souls who've had someone whom you've had a wonderful life with who's just about to spread their wings...this song is the heart crying out.
I used to listen to this song after I broke up with my gf (2010). Same summer my friend died to overdose (accidentally) and I had lost a lot of people around me. I had lost my will to live and ended up on our kitchen floor drugged and a knife in my hand but I am still here. This album helped me through those tough times. I just wanted to say that I am glad I am still here, now married, I have will to live and if you feel depressed or your life feels totally fucked I just want to say that it will get better and keep fighting. Love you all.
Saw them play this live in Glasgow just 1 month after losing my Dad and I just stood and cried, as I played this to my Dad as he passed away. Forever carried in my heart Dad. Love you so much, and miss you more every day xxx
This is unbelievable. I dont care what anyone thinks if they don't love this. How do you not feel this emotion, it's certainly something hard to control. Like holy shit... this is the best rock band out there now. How can you disagree. The melodies, the guitar work, it's all epic.
I'm 59 now and I'm still bursting into uncontrollable sobs when I hear it (and others of theirs that focus on the topic of loss). This band is powerful and speaks to people in every age group. That's special.
There was a young man who was a dear friend to all 5 of my sons. He played football with 3 of them, played guitars with another and was probably a best friend to yet another. He loved music and would just come over to my house and pick up a guitar or play the keyboard and sing like he was in front of a stadium full of people. He was struck by a car while on his motorcycle and killed. The driver of the car was on her phone and didn't see him passing through the intersection as she turned in front of him. He was 21 and headed to be a Naval officer. This song meant so much to us that one of my sons and I spontaneously performed this in our living room one afternoon while talking about him and the songs he would have loved to hear. My wife secretly videoed it so I have seen it a few times over the years. It isn't something to post because it is our moment but a moment made possible because of these guys. Needless to say this is a powerful song that can mean alot to many people. Thanks Alter Bridge. Music is life and a celebration of lives well lived.
Close your eyes And just hear me say One last long goodbye One last song before You spread your wings There's so much left to say Before this moment slips away What a wonderful life For as long as you've been at my side And I want you to know I loved you so. The cold night calls And the tears fall like rain It's so hard letting go Of the one thing I'll never replace. And soon you will be gone But these words, they will live on. What a wonderful life for as long as you've been at my side And I want you to know I'll miss you so And though all days come to an end No I'll never love like this again. What a wonderful life my friend. And all that I am You let me be I'll remember you For all that you've done And given to me And love will remain This I can see Now and forever more Because of you now I believe I believe What a wonderful life For as long as you've been at my side And I want you to know that I loved you so What a wonderful life For as long as you've been at my side And I want you to know I'll miss you so And though all days come to an and No I'll never love like this again What a wonderful life What a wonderful life What a wonderful life A wonderful life And with one last embrace As the tears fall like rain You're gone And with one last goodbye And you faded out tonight, you're gone
Our 26year old son silently battled mental health an give up the battle an hung himself this song me an husband dedicated to him such a wonderful son brother and father as he sadly left a little 8year old boy also 😢 we hope you’re now at peace our lives are shattered and will never ever be the same until we meet again you will always be loved and remembered by many xxx

Engracado , as músicas de AB geralmente aparentam ser românticas, mas ao ler os comentários, não tem como não se emocionar com as varias situações a quais elas são assimiladas. A perca de um grande amigo, a perca de um parente, incrível o modo como conseguem falar de dor e perca de um jeito sensível e bonito. " and you faded out tonight, you're gone." em nome daqueles que jamais serão substituídos, a vida eh maravilhosa, e são as pessoas que passam por nossas vidas que fazem dela tao incrível,então guardem essa letra como inspiração, olhem pro amor ao seu lado, pro parente no outro quarto e digam como essa pessoa faz da sua vida mais completa, mais bonita e incrível, amanha pode sobrar só a saudade.
Bruney melo cara sem palavras..mas msm assim vou falar algo sobre seu comentario haha.. simplesmente caiu em um momento exatamente ideal em minha vida.. e pow sou exatamente assim nao sou muito de falar oq sinto nem pra minha familia nem pra minha namora e etc.. entao sacando a letra dessa banda q curto bá caraí e seu comentario pow..muito foda tenho msm q mudar isso!! vlw....
It's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all. Try it some time. Then all of you will truly know how lucky you are to have lost in the first place.
Porque uma banda como essas não tem repercussão mundial?! Alter Bridge é o melhor que o Rock tem a oferecer! Já não basta ter o melhor vocalista dos últimos anos?
I've been struggling with self hate for the better part of the last 10 years and finally decided to pull myself out of that gutter last year. Worked on my studies, started working, and mingled around with a girl I really liked, and later really fell in love with. The hardships in uni and job were tough but manageable, but when I found out she had been in a relationship with her "best friend" the whole year, that fucking broke me. Now I just have to keep going. But life will be wonderful again soon im sure ❤️
Listened to this album for the first time in a while today, and in the context of my dad dying of a stroke about two months ago I burst out in tears, something I don't think I've ever done before involuntarily. I wasn't expecting to going in and even when the song started I thought nothing of it. Then the lyrics kicked in and I was belting along as the tears were pouring down my cheeks. A simple yet powerful song.
I lost my grandpa when I was 4, but still I remember those moments when he brings me and my little brother to a horse stable nearby my hometown. I still remember, he wears us our helmet on, we went to a petrol station to fill his motorcycle's gas. All those little detail. Since he left me, everything had changed. I don't feel any love anymore. I miss him so much, i just wanna hold his hand and never let go.
Amazing song. Today was my graduation. This song can relate to all the amazing friends and memories ive made in the past ten years. Love will always live on. Alter Bridge can really bring out the meaning and tears in people. Amazing... Simply amazing
This song... This whole album was amazing. I feel like he wrote it for me, my brother, & my mom. Because every song in that album we can relate to. Especially this song. This song I played the day my pop pop died in November. It makes me think of him & the wonderful life hes given us. He may have lost his battle to cancer & various infections (Due to a VETERANS hospital) but hes free like "Black Bird" and "breathe Again" =] I love Alter Bridge. They make songs that can change your world
Thank you so much AB for writing and creating this song.Really lucky to born with the same era with AB, have a chance to listen their great songs. Thank you so much I dedicate this song to someone.You will know the real of me one day. Just listen to this song and this is exactly the same thing in my mind
Dads favorite song he passed away from cancer and this song brings back memories and I’m not really into this type of music but damn this really gets you in your head
This song is dedicated to people we lost or people we may loose, he said it himself, don't let life get in the way, sometimes we can't say sorry, or I love you, or miss you. Then we live in regret, wishing we did, because sometimes it becomes too late... If you have a problem with a friend or family, don't let it go till tomorrow, because for some of us, it never comes....
I lost my father recently he was such a big Influence on me and supported me in everything I do even if it was stupid like building a Lego house he held me up every time I fell I played this song at his funeral it was beautiful he introduced me to alter bridge, its hard for a teenager to deal with this type of pain, but when I listen to this song it feels like he's standing next to me singing along
My dad died 9 months ago I’ve been with alterbridge since the beginning and their albums to me are the different stages of life you experience. Till this day they are my top men. Mark and Myles I love you guys you got me Through tough times and I appreciate your music.
I have no trouble saying that I have cried to this song on more than one occassion, with Myles Kennedy's vocals it just ladens me with emotion and mixed memories of the past. Myles is the only vocalist that has installed that much feeling in me with vocal ability alone...
Wow. Just wow. Beautiful, emotional and amazing piece of musical magic. Makes you wanna cry each time you hear it and every time you hear it, the lyrics become that much deeper and meaningful. A song you can never get bored of listening to regardless of how many times you've listened to it before.
"Wonderful Life". Sounds like a Love Story! I wonder if this song is based on a real relationship? It grabs my heart. I have listened to this song at least a dozen times. It pulls at my heart strings overtime! Myles voice stays with me always. Well done!💕
i just lost my grandpa a month ago, and now my grandma in the early morning hours...all i can say is this song just helps me and speaks to me so much. Thank you Alterbridge.
This Song instantly made my cry, since I lost the love of my life one week ago. She is and will always be the one for me and I will give all I have and do all I can to make her trust me and love me again, because there's nothing better than waking up next to her and seeing her wonderful smile. DS
I cried the first time I listened to this song, while listening to the full ABIII just right after buying it. I cried when I watched the video of their acoustic performance in Manchester. I'm still crying now that I'm listening to it again. This song is wonderful. Their music is wonderful. My life is wonderful since I know Alter Bridge. This is so emotional! It digs a hole in my soul, like Blackbird, In loving memory, Watch over you and Broken Wings used to do -and still do for that matter.
Thanks, thank you so much Alter Bridge... The mother of a friend of mine died suddenly a few days ago, he used to be kind and happy, carefree, and now... It hurts him a lot, nobody should bury his mother R.I.P †
My heart goes out to you all.. I've literally followed Alterbridge for years & have been fortunate enough to see them ' live ' on numerous occasions.. This song 🎵 is the one I chose to leave my friends after attempting an overdose a few weeks ago .. As you can see my friends , I survived but this song shall remain to my friends when I pass!! Sending love ❤, light ✨ & hope to you all.. Marie...
This song, along with In Loving Memory and You will be Remembered make me tear up when I listen to them. Such beautiful songs. I feel like Alter Bridge is a gift from the big guy upstairs tbh. They are incredible musicians.
AlterBridge is one of a kind.. the music they create is all about how love and life make sense.. and you dont even get to notice it.. you just reflect..
The intro instrumental just makes me smile and have hope for rock music still out there. Alter Bridge is a true band that sticks to what they believe in. All three albums are amazing albums.
This will always be my favorite song. I lost my best friend and soon after herd this song on the radio. This song helped me get through the most difficult time of my life. Such beauty in the lyrics that the first time i heard it i cried.
Rest in peace, Craig. As my second cousin, and you living down in Arizona, while I'm up here in Wisconsin. I didn't ever get to see you much. But you were such am outgoing man. You passed away just 3 days ago...): but you are well missed, and you were loved all around. I love you, I'll meet you again someday!
Was great to have met you all last night at Fribourg Frison Concert Hall in Switzerland before the concert. I had a really great time last night! Thanks to you all for the happy memories that I now hold dear to me.
Great song from a great band.Love "In Loving Memory" as well.Myles is an incredible vocalist and Mark is an incredible guitarist.Thank you Alter Bridge for this song.
This song means a lot to me; I lost my Dad to Leukaemia back in January... I was listening a lot around the time and Tweeted Myles Kennedy; Myles Directly Messaged me to send his condolences... Through all the pain, Myles managed to make me smile and I am forever grateful to him for it, and to Alter Bridge for this beautiful, touching song that helped me grieve.
Myles, Mark, Flip & Brian...I for one, am so grateful to have been introduced to AB. Rock with lyrics like no other. My passion led to starting a facebook page...AlterBridgeNewZealand....and the AB Nation is growing!!!! RnR AB...Love stopping in at Fret12 and shopping \m/ ;)
This song gets me every single time, thinking about my dad. Just under 2 years ago now, also soon after i discovered Alter Bridge which has helped me ALOT. The best song ever for me and the best band ever. Can't believe i didn't discover them earlier.
Awesome! Last (and only time) I ever felt this moved over a song was over Blackbird. Keep up the fantastic work Alter Bridge! I have to wonder how Alter Bridge is not as popular as they should be. None of my friends have heard of them, and I get every single one of them hooked. Most under-rated band ever.
I wanted to for my mom and my sister., Both died within months of each other . Such a beautiful song. And makes me cry each time because it encompasses what i would say to them if i could just talk to them one more time. 😥
I lost my 15 year old nephew 3 months ago. He was my little brother. He hung himself after a lot of frustration from studies, rejection from a girl, beatings by his father, watching a younger brother with failed lever and kidneys and criticism from family for poor academic performance. I have always been an alter bridge fan and this song makes me remember my Samar. Samar rest in peace. One day i too will fly and find you again.
So sorry...
❤ sorry man, that is so hard to deal with. Suicide is overlooked, my goal in music is to prevent that from happening. Music is the cure if u dont fit in
So very sorry - what a terrible waste 😢
ua-cam.com/video/-Mt-F_HAa3Y/v-deo.html i did wonderful life
So sorry man 🥺
My best best friend died on his 20th birthday.
A couple of months before his tragic death I got him into 'Alter Bridge' I even bought him a ticket to see them live. This song was played at his funeral, 2 years ago. Every time I hear it, it bring floods of tears to my eyes and memories that can never be replaced.
I love you man. X
I'm really sorry about loss bro
I completely understand that. I'm sorry.
I So Understand, have lost too many too fast...Sorry
we send love and peace to your friend
sorry for your loss....he lives on because of you and this song!
My wife passed away on the 12/04/2023, this was the entry music for her funeral 😞
We played this song at my sons funeral,Adam tragically died while on holiday with his 3 best mates,he went to see Alterbridge before he passed away and loved them,now I'm hooked on this special song for my special son xx
Escana100 sorry to hear that. hope you have a wonderful life
I've lost my grandpa today...I wish you a better life, my Hero ❤
The whole beauty behind this song was that he wasn't even writing this to anyone in particular. All he had to do was think about losing someone close to him and these lyrics came about. Amazing.
This band has a special way of leaving you in a mess of tears:))
Yup.
most definitely
My dog passed away a month ago today. This song puts it beautifully, it really was a wonderful life. Rest easy, sweet boy 💙
I want to listen to this song in public because it's so good but I cry every time I hear it. THE FEELS ARE REAL.
The Stig This song affects me the same way bro.
The Stig yeah its true this made me cry
+The Stig Yea man, cried today listening to it. Think about my loved ones who passed and kills me everyime. There are a couple AB songs that do that
yeah, Blackbird is definitely one of them
The true hallmark of a great band is if they can REALLY make you feel something, and AB makes you feel shit ACROSS the fuckin board man, from pumped up head banging, to happy optimism, to longing sadness, they nail it every time, I don't even know how it's possible.
I'm sitting here playing this with my dad who is on his journey home and I will miss him and love him so much. Thank you dad for the father, friend and hero you have always been to me. Please love your family and don't worry about tomorrow. Love them each second of the day. I will remember you forever x
RIP mom. You have left a hole in my heart :(
life must go on. keep rolling mate
I absolutely feel your pain my brother....28 years, I still feel the pull as she settles once again
In my wounded heart.
It gets better, it flies away, but it always returns in the quietest moments. I've learned to cherish these times of remembering ❤️
I understand your pain...we will for sure see our Mothers again:)
We will see our Moms again ❤
Been there. May both of our mothers RIP ❤

My baby brother's 29 year anniversary is today and this is my chosen song for his memory miss you always my Jamie ❤
Without ever listening to a song by this band, you could easily determine how great this band is just by reading their song lyrics.
First time i hear a song from this brand.. Endeed it's amazing!
Then you should listen to Creed it's basically the same band without Miles Kennedy
@@jasongidley2860 No, it's not anywhere close to the same. Sure members are the same minus Myles Kennnedy. The songs are a different style, and AB is much better and deeper. Their lyrics are much mature, and respected by people. Creed was okay. They are much better with Myles and as AB. They are also much different.

Your crying over this song at age 15? Wow, im 27, and it brings tears to my eyes. That my friends, is the power of Alter Bridge..rock on.
Cjd3458 hope you still like it
I'm 59 now and I'm still bursting into uncontrollable sobs when I hear it (and others of theirs that focus on the topic of loss). This band is powerful and speaks to people in every age group. That's special.
My Dad passed away Dec 6, 1 month today 😭 I miss him so much. Grief comes in waves and this song is helping me ride one right now 🙏❤
All my Love and Condolences. I know the Hurt. God Bless.
There was a young man who was a dear friend to all 5 of my sons. He played football with 3 of them, played guitars with another and was probably a best friend to yet another. He loved music and would just come over to my house and pick up a guitar or play the keyboard and sing like he was in front of a stadium full of people.
He was struck by a car while on his motorcycle and killed. The driver of the car was on her phone and didn't see him passing through the intersection as she turned in front of him. He was 21 and headed to be a Naval officer.

I lost my cat today, she’s only a year old this month , it hurts than it should be, so long my little girl.
I lost the love of my life Oct 30th. This was his song to me at the funeral 💔💔💔💔
Close your eyes
And just hear me say
One last long goodbye
One last song before
You spread your wings
There's so much left to say
Before this moment slips away
What a wonderful life
For as long as you've been at my side
And I want you to know I loved you so.
The cold night calls
And the tears fall like rain
It's so hard letting go
Of the one thing I'll never replace.
And soon you will be gone
But these words, they will live on.
What a wonderful life for as long as you've been at my side
And I want you to know I'll miss you so
And though all days come to an end
No I'll never love like this again.
What a wonderful life my friend.
And all that I am
You let me be
I'll remember you
For all that you've done
And given to me
And love will remain
This I can see
Now and forever more
Because of you now I believe
I believe
What a wonderful life
For as long as you've been at my side
And I want you to know that I loved you so
What a wonderful life
For as long as you've been at my side
And I want you to know I'll miss you so
And though all days come to an and
No I'll never love like this again
What a wonderful life
What a wonderful life
What a wonderful life
A wonderful life
And with one last embrace
As the tears fall like rain
You're gone
And with one last goodbye
And you faded out tonight, you're gone

This song is so beautiful and fitting for all our loved ones we've lost, including our furry kids
Close your eyes,
And just hear me sing,
One last long goodbye,
One last song before you spread your wings.

A perca de um grande amigo, a perca de um parente, incrível o modo como conseguem falar de dor e perca de um jeito sensível e bonito. " and you faded out tonight, you're gone." em nome daqueles que jamais serão substituídos, a vida eh maravilhosa, e são as pessoas que passam por nossas vidas que fazem dela tao incrível,então guardem essa letra como inspiração, olhem pro amor ao seu lado, pro parente no outro quarto e digam como essa pessoa faz da sua vida mais completa, mais bonita e incrível, amanha pode sobrar só a saudade.
Maravilhosa a sua interpretação das letras dos AB. Não podia deixar de estar mais de acordo.
Bruney, grande comentário, meu velho!
Bruney melo cara sem palavras..mas msm assim vou falar algo sobre seu comentario haha..

vlw....
+Bruney melo é engraçado msm. Essa musica me remete a um grande amigo que faleceu ;( . Bem subjetiva ela ,simplesmente linda
Obrigado cara, de verdade mesmo. Seu comentário me salvou!!
It's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all. Try it some time. Then all of you will truly know how lucky you are to have lost in the first place.
This song was played at my brothers funeral and the words are a fitting tribute. Love this song, thank you Alter Bridge
Porque uma banda como essas não tem repercussão mundial?!
Alter Bridge é o melhor que o Rock tem a oferecer!
Já não basta ter o melhor vocalista dos últimos anos?
Concordo.
Even though my Uncle died nearly 10 years ago... the songs AB make like In Loving Memory, Watch Over You & this help keep his memory alive in me. RIP
The CC Network be strong man. life must go on. hope you have a wonderful life
I've been struggling with self hate for the better part of the last 10 years and finally decided to pull myself out of that gutter last year. Worked on my studies, started working, and mingled around with a girl I really liked, and later really fell in love with. The hardships in uni and job were tough but manageable, but when I found out she had been in a relationship with her "best friend" the whole year, that fucking broke me.
Now I just have to keep going. But life will be wonderful again soon im sure ❤️
We’ve all been there. Hold on - it gets better. PS - AB for life!
Wow. I didn't think there was a better version than the acoustic one, but this was incredible. His voice, you feel it.
What a band. Absolutely sublime. Seen them half a dozen times and one of those times was with an orchestra in London. Blew me away like no other band
Listened to this album for the first time in a while today, and in the context of my dad dying of a stroke about two months ago I burst out in tears, something I don't think I've ever done before involuntarily. I wasn't expecting to going in and even when the song started I thought nothing of it. Then the lyrics kicked in and I was belting along as the tears were pouring down my cheeks. A simple yet powerful song.
Lost my old and best friend yesterday. Rest easy Mr D
Sorry for your loss 🙏
This song is # 1 on my husbands memorial cd my brother made me it says alot! I will miss you all the days of my life!!!!
Michelle Miller hope you have a wonderful life
I lost my grandpa when I was 4, but still I remember those moments when he brings me and my little brother to a horse stable nearby my hometown. I still remember, he wears us our helmet on, we went to a petrol station to fill his motorcycle's gas. All those little detail. Since he left me, everything had changed. I don't feel any love anymore. I miss him so much, i just wanna hold his hand and never let go.
The only song to ever bring me to literally tears. The only other songs that came close were again by alter bridge. A truly special band
RIP daddy. I love and miss you!
Sorry for your loss
R.I.P
@Christian Campbell fuck off
Amazing song. Today was my graduation. This song can relate to all the amazing friends and memories ive made in the past ten years. Love will always live on. Alter Bridge can really bring out the meaning and tears in people. Amazing... Simply amazing
XxMetallica81xX Hope you have a wonderful life. keep rolling. life must go on
We just had my grandfather's funeral yesterday. This song hits the feels even more!
This song... This whole album was amazing. I feel like he wrote it for me, my brother, & my mom. Because every song in that album we can relate to. Especially this song. This song I played the day my pop pop died in November. It makes me think of him & the wonderful life hes given us. He may have lost his battle to cancer & various infections (Due to a VETERANS hospital) but hes free like "Black Bird" and "breathe Again" =] I love Alter Bridge. They make songs that can change your world
Thank you so much AB for writing and creating this song.Really lucky to born with the same era with AB, have a chance to listen their great songs. Thank you so much
I dedicate this song to someone.You will know the real of me one day. Just listen to this song and this is exactly the same thing in my mind
Mom! Dad! Thank you! I know you both are resting in peace ..please always look after your son ..LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH!
Dads favorite song he passed away from cancer and this song brings back memories and I’m not really into this type of music but damn this really gets you in your head
could be the greatest writers of music ever!!!
This song is dedicated to people we lost or people we may loose, he said it himself, don't let life get in the way, sometimes we can't say sorry, or I love you, or miss you. Then we live in regret, wishing we did, because sometimes it becomes too late... If you have a problem with a friend or family, don't let it go till tomorrow, because for some of us, it never comes....
What voice.
What song.
What BAND!
ALTER BRIDGE!
What a wonderful song
As the song goes on I cry all along
I lost my father recently he was such a big Influence on me and supported me in everything I do even if it was stupid like building a Lego house he held me up every time I fell I played this song at his funeral it was beautiful he introduced me to alter bridge, its hard for a teenager to deal with this type of pain, but when I listen to this song it feels like he's standing next to me singing along
My dad died 9 months ago
I’ve been with alterbridge since the beginning and their albums to me are the different stages of life you experience. Till this day they are my top men. Mark and Myles I love you guys you got me
Through tough times and I appreciate your music.
What a Wonderful Life... It is when you listen to this beautiful piece of music. Such a contrast to their normal stuff. Love it.
I have no trouble saying that I have cried to this song on more than one occassion, with Myles Kennedy's vocals it just ladens me with emotion and mixed memories of the past. Myles is the only vocalist that has installed that much feeling in me with vocal ability alone...
TheWeemaster its a wonderful song. for a wonderful person like you. keep rolling man. life must go on
Wow. Just wow.
Beautiful, emotional and amazing piece of musical magic.
Makes you wanna cry each time you hear it and every time you hear it, the lyrics become that much deeper and meaningful. A song you can never get bored of listening to regardless of how many times you've listened to it before.
Jack Johnson hope you still listening
Every time I hear this song I can't help but shed a few tears.. Whether happy or sad, now sad. God it's amazing to relax to.
"Wonderful Life". Sounds like a Love Story! I wonder if this song is based on a real relationship? It grabs my heart. I have listened to this song at least a dozen times. It pulls at my heart strings overtime! Myles voice stays with me always. Well done!💕
This song is so moving, I'm going through a difficult time and it helps get all the emotions out. Alter Bridge you rock xx
i just lost my grandpa a month ago, and now my grandma in the early morning hours...all i can say is this song just helps me and speaks to me so much. Thank you Alterbridge.
i am so sorry for your loss. allow yourself time to grief and heal. sending much love and strength.
@@missselfdestruct9651 I appreciate that so much
This Song instantly made my cry, since I lost the love of my life one week ago. She is and will always be the one for me and I will give all I have and do all I can to make her trust me and love me again, because there's nothing better than waking up next to her and seeing her wonderful smile.
DS
Evil666D sorry to hear that. keep rolling mate. life must go on. hope you have a wonderful life
I cried the first time I listened to this song, while listening to the full ABIII just right after buying it.
I cried when I watched the video of their acoustic performance in Manchester.
I'm still crying now that I'm listening to it again.
This song is wonderful. Their music is wonderful. My life is wonderful since I know Alter Bridge.
This is so emotional! It digs a hole in my soul, like Blackbird, In loving memory, Watch over you and Broken Wings used to do -and still do for that matter.
Thanks, thank you so much Alter Bridge...
The mother of a friend of mine died suddenly a few days ago, he used to be kind and happy, carefree, and now... It hurts him a lot, nobody should bury his mother
R.I.P †
My heart goes out to you all..
I've literally followed Alterbridge for years & have been fortunate enough to see them ' live ' on numerous occasions..
This song 🎵 is the one I chose to leave my friends after attempting an overdose a few weeks ago ..
As you can see my friends , I survived but this song shall remain to my friends when I pass!!
Sending love ❤, light ✨ & hope to you all..
Marie...
don't ever go. you need to be here to see what's around the corner. 🤗
This song, along with In Loving Memory and You will be Remembered make me tear up when I listen to them. Such beautiful songs. I feel like Alter Bridge is a gift from the big guy upstairs tbh. They are incredible musicians.
Myled Kennedy has a voice of an angel. This song is amazing.
Alter Bridge ♥
Words cannot describe how incredible this song is. Thanks for uploading!
Another masterpiece. The and Blackbird leave anyone speechless. 🤯🤯🤯🤯
This band hits home for all of us in so many ways!
Ryan Huntley hope you have a wonderfull life
A truely wonderful rock anthem. Lyrics are genius and a fab melody with a rock vibe,
great vocal, Classic
AlterBridge is one of a kind.. the music they create is all about how love and life make sense.. and you dont even get to notice it.. you just reflect..
Played this song at the Memorial Service for My wife of 50 yrs
ive just discovered ab and there helping me thru so much
yes
The intro instrumental just makes me smile and have hope for rock music still out there. Alter Bridge is a true band that sticks to what they believe in. All three albums are amazing albums.
I can't stop listening to this song! I haven't lost anyone in a few years - but it brings me peace. Myles has the voice of an angel!!
GinWoodard life must go on.
This will always be my favorite song. I lost my best friend and soon after herd this song on the radio. This song helped me get through the most difficult time of my life. Such beauty in the lyrics that the first time i heard it i cried.
Rest in peace, Craig. As my second cousin, and you living down in Arizona, while I'm up here in Wisconsin. I didn't ever get to see you much. But you were such am outgoing man. You passed away just 3 days ago...): but you are well missed, and you were loved all around. I love you, I'll meet you again someday!
Caitlyn Goane RIP.
Was great to have met you all last night at Fribourg Frison Concert Hall in Switzerland before the concert. I had a really great time last night! Thanks to you all for the happy memories that I now hold dear to me.
For you, my friend. I thank you for a lifetime of laughter, joy and tears. I will meet you on the other side of heaven.
One of their many greats! Such great musicians and song writers.
I'm so sorry for your loss. May God give you the strength to get through this difficult time...He is watching from above.
Great song from a great band.Love "In Loving Memory" as well.Myles is an incredible vocalist and Mark is an incredible guitarist.Thank you Alter Bridge for this song.
This song means a lot to me; I lost my Dad to Leukaemia back in January... I was listening a lot around the time and Tweeted Myles Kennedy; Myles Directly Messaged me to send his condolences... Through all the pain, Myles managed to make me smile and I am forever grateful to him for it, and to Alter Bridge for this beautiful, touching song that helped me grieve.
Myles, Mark, Flip & Brian...I for one, am so grateful to have been introduced to AB. Rock with lyrics like no other. My passion led to starting a facebook page...AlterBridgeNewZealand....and the AB Nation is growing!!!! RnR AB...Love stopping in at Fret12 and shopping \m/ ;)
This song gets me every single time, thinking about my dad. Just under 2 years ago now, also soon after i discovered Alter Bridge which has helped me ALOT. The best song ever for me and the best band ever. Can't believe i didn't discover them earlier.
Beautiful work. How can you not get teared up? I think that most of us that hear this song can relate in one way or another.
this just reminds me of what i have and what i lost. Can't take shit for granted
Jake Allerston-brockwell keep rolling.. life must go on
Awesome! Last (and only time) I ever felt this moved over a song was over Blackbird. Keep up the fantastic work Alter Bridge!
I have to wonder how Alter Bridge is not as popular as they should be. None of my friends have heard of them, and I get every single one of them hooked. Most under-rated band ever.
I am here again, listening , remembering all the days and would love to tell again again - I love you so @Muna
Yesterday, my little Tuxie passed, 10 years of being my best friend. My heart is shattered. I will miss you everyday until the end of time.
amazingly emotive song...tears in my eyes listening
Dear lord.....what a touching song! This is music. Beautiful song! ❤❤
my mum passed away on sunday, thinking of using this song for her funeral
Sorry for your loss :(
Prayers to you buddy
I wanted to for my mom and my sister., Both died within months of each other . Such a beautiful song. And makes me cry each time because it encompasses what i would say to them if i could just talk to them one more time. 😥
RIP
Love this song, and your story. It's the hardest thing, and one that I hope I never have to endure. You touched me!
made me cry...remembering my grandpa who i loved so much! thanks alter bridge 4 dooing this song...peace out
This song tears me apart inside. I have such sorrow and rage from the loss of people I've loved in my life. This song says everything I feel for them!
Saw this live yesterday... just Mark and Myles together... absolutely amazing.
