    this song made me cry and makes me cry as i remember how i'm getting older and my dreams are not any way appearing as coming through...my mama gone forever without ever becoming the singer she wanted to be, i'm afraid i might be that way.
    "Oh how the years go by" it makes me cry and comforts and encourages me at the same time.

      You can't lose hope. Hope and working in your dream is usually more exciting than the dream itself. Sometimes sometimes we find that what we wanted wasn't worth the torment......after we get it

    The youth and prime of our lives are such a beautiful time. And yes, those years will go by in a blink of an eye but the glory of those moments always remain.

    My mother passed away around the time I first heard this. Never realized how much she meant to me in my wild days, but when I hear it now, I am not embarrassed to say how much I miss her. Memories, love you Ma.

    My father and I loved watching and re-watching the NBA at 50 documentary. It's been 13 years since my father passed, and I still remember the 90s with him watching MJ, Sir Charles, Karl and John, Patrick, D-Rob, Shaq, Bird, Magic, and my ultimate idol Dr. J...with this song, I remember him.

    This song is so moving !! And as an NBA fan all my life i always have goosebumps with this.
    I hope they do this again plus the next 25 years with Lebron, Kobe, Duncan, Garnett and others. And with Kobe's passing it'll more emotional

    I miss all that we did with my brothers and sisters.
    I miss my childhood friends
    I miss my middle school friends
    Most of all I miss my High school friends.
    But thanks goodness I found the BEST PERSON in my entire life who’s my Wife.
    If you ever come this comment Baby, just know you’re my Greatest experience ever in my existence in this universe.
    You’re more than what I could ever ask for
    I love you so much.

    Merry Christmas Vanessa! I was 22 yrs old working construction at the IBM Thomas center in Westchester when every morning I would go to Rocky's Deli in Millwood for the best egg breakfast. You had won the Crown and put tiny Millwood on the map. This song is a reminder How the years go by". Absolutely love this song. Have a wonderful New Year! Blessings in 2023!

    Simplemente magnifico! This song epitomises the importance of making every year, month, week, day, hour, and every single second of our lives count. Appreciate life for what it is, be thankful amidst the many challenges that we face daily. Be confident in your aspirations and work assiduously in achieving them.Remember we only live this life once and when we depart from it we will be fondly remembered by those close to our hearts.There4, it is important that we make those memories treasurable!

    Just listened to this song for 5 times. Beautiful song. Beautiful voice. Beautiful Vanessa. In my heart you don't have to give up the crown. It was deception on the part of Penthouse. If I were you I would still drag the Penthhouse to the courts. I am sure you will win. Perhaps, get back the crown on the grounds that the photos were for personal use. Love u gal.
