I chose to have this song played at my 33 years young sisters funeral last month. She loved social d as much as I do, and it was perfect for her life. I really thought she was invincible with everything she overcame in life and beat, surviving the unthinkable time and time again. She lived for the moment. I wanted her sons to hear this song played to help them realize life can be cut too short and appreciate every moment.
Charlie Browm Yes, this was the version I had them play. More appropriate than the faster version. I love both, but acoustic gets me for this song. And thank you.
Sure I don't I have only seen Social Distortion 3 times and own all their records but I don't know what real music is... Hey I have not been to college either for music production... Take it from aspen he knows everything.. He is so good with his ear at hearing good music several bands gt their start up from his dude when he discovered them in a bar..
My bday is this month. I had a father, a mother, and a sister. All passed on. First bday without direct blood on this earth. It's hitting hard. I'm left reaching for the sky. Rest In Peace sweet family.
To all people reading this while listening to this rare piece of music. I think we can all agree something like this shouldnt be taken for granted and social distortion is a unique and amazing band. I hope, as it has for me so far, this song will be there for you in bad and good times. One of those songs that can melt and fix ones heart. Love to all of you and especially the band for doing this!!!
When I was young I was invincible I find myself not thinking twice I never thought about no future It's just a roll of the dice But the day may come when you got something to lose And just when you think you're done paying dues You say to yourself, "Dear God, what have I done?" And hope it's not too late 'cause tomorrow may never come Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come Yesterday is history And tomorrow's a mystery But baby, right now It's just about you and me You can run, you can hide just like Bonnie and Clyde Reach for the sky, ain't never gonna die And I thank the Lord for the love that I have found And hold you tight 'cause tomorrow may never come Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come So if you please, take this moment Try if you can to make it last Don't think about no future And just forget about the past And make it last Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come (Reach for the sky, ain't never gonna die) Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come (Reach for the sky, ain't never gonna die) Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come (Reach for the sky, ain't never gonna die) Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come M Ness
I had a father once who may have not been my blood but that old man took me to my first SD concert for my 22nd birthday. He showed me what good real hearted music is about. These guys are gunna lie in my heart as one of my favorite bands of all time. Thanks pops RIP
unreal how good this sounds..better than the original fast version..these boys were on that day in az...mike ness one of the most underrated musicians of our time.
+Brian Gorman But he sounds sick as shit. His voice has always been awsome. but I have $500 in headphones and sound card on my PC and the back vocals sound like shit.
I'd been a fan of the original version for many years. But then in summer 2020, in the thick of the pandemic, weeks away from the birth of my first child (my son), I stumbled across this version and it hit me in the heart so hard it brought me to tears. Then on the day my son was born my brother was found dead in his apartment. I wish I could thank these guys for how much this song means to me.
This version is awesome!!! I remember reading an old interview with Mike Ness, he said he writes all his songs on acoustic first, then electrifies them. Bad Religion does the same. There's certainly something to that process because both are incredible song writers
Damn… that day finally came when I had something to lose, and in the blink of an eye it could have been gone, laying in a hospital bed begging for one more day. Wherever you are, whatever your doing, don’t EVER give up. I reach for the sky every day! Every day above ground is a good day! God Bless.
I just want to say this, I recently went to a Social Distortion gig. There were a lot older adults, but I'm sixteen and my friend is going on sixteen. I love to see how a band can, and will, keep reaching people from generation to generation. It's amazing.
Someone else here said that SD is the one band that suits all phases of their life. I find that to be true for me as well. Ness just has that talent for writing about whats real and can be related to by most folks. They have helped carry me through my teens, 20s, 30s, and presently 40s. And hopefully many more years to come, though tomorrow is promised to no one.
Been listening since my 13 year old self discovered them in 1990. Will love them to the end. Sorry about mom. Lost mine 7 years ago. Wish I could say it gets better, but it only gets easier.
Me and my twin thought we were Invinsable.. But we all pay our dues. And tomorrow really never comes when you need it to. She took her life, so I take this moment, but will never forget about the past.
When I was young I was invincible, I find myself now thinking twice, I never thought about no future, its just the roll of the dice. But the day may come when you've got something to lose, and just when you think you're done paying dues And you say to yourself, dear God what Have I done? And hope its not too late 'cause tomorrow may never come. [Chorus:] Reach For the Sky, 'cause tomorrow may never come Reach For the Sky, 'cause tomorrow may never come Yesterday is history and tomorrow's a mystery But baby right now, its just about you and me, You can run you can hide, just like Bonnie and Clyde Reach for the sky ain't never gonna die, and I thank the Lord for the love I have found and hold you tight cause tomorrow may never come. [Chorus] So if you please take this moment Try if you can make it last Don't think about no future and just forget about the past and make it last.
This song was my favorite to listen to back in 2015 post brain surgery for a brain tumor, I was given 3/5 years to live, this song I’m playing it now because I’m still alive today God bless ❤️🙏🙌
Great track!.. thought about, leaving this world a few hours ago,.. I've lost a lot, but gained some too.. i looked towards the sky, with this track playing over and over.. it has helped, thank you! 1❤
The world may be a big place and you may seem so small in it, but know it wouldn't be the same without your presence. Life can get tough and times but I know you can get stronger. The downs will always plateau at some point and you will always be able to pick yourself up. I hope you can always find some happiness within yourself during your dark times. Just remember, even people you don't know, appreciate you.
I've been listening to Social D/Mike Ness for almost 20 years now. I've had the pleasure of seeing them play live. I remember jamming to them in my childhood bedroom when I was a young kid full of angst. I now just play them over my computer and in the truck heading to & from work. I must say, this recording was absolutely moving. 41 people have no taste or sense in good music.
I know this song reminds a lot of us about loved ones that are not with us anymore.. for me that’s my best friend Marc, he was my boy, my partner in crime, God Father to my son, I miss you so much my brother, words just can’t describe. 🙏🥰😢
Today is the 5 year anniversary of my brothers death and we both love/ed Social D fiercely. I found this version many years ago and we both loved it. We would play it during special occasions. Since his Death I had been staying away from it but today of all days it popped up on my Playlist of almost 500 songs. This song means the world to me.
I sat with Mike at Ichabods in Fullerton the night before he was going to be incarcerated. I told him he had a great future in his music and not to give up hope or drive. I hope I played a small part in his success
Every time I hear this song it makes me think of me n my boy Marc running wild causing fun troubles having the time of our lives with so much ahead of us.. he’s been gone 2 years now and it’s just the worst, especially knowing he won’t see my kid grow up, I miss you my brother, always, RIP 🙏✊😥
Social Distortion É Eterno! Parabéns pela versao... Sou de Curitiba BR Presenciei show dos caras em CwB... Amo vcs obrigado! Muito Obrigado Social Distortion! Mta saúde a vcs!
Discovered this band way too late in life.(when I was 16. I'm 32 now.) Been a fan ever since. This band helped me in most of the tough parts of my life to this day and I will always be a fan.
I’ve seen social D ten times in my life the first in 1992 fresh out of high school in the Marines in Hawaii. I’ve been going to concerts since I was 5 years old and have been to tons. Mike Ness is so underrated in the music industry it’s stupid. I took my 4 year to see social d just 2 weeks ago, he knows every song and this being his favorite one of all. Social Distortion has never put on a shitty show ever and probably never will for that fact. Glad I grew up a punk and I’ll die a punk.
Beautiful version of one of my favorite Social D songs. And I'm sorry but the backup vocals are fantastic and I am super impressed with the harmonies of the higher pitch voice in this version.
Ah, We saw Social Distortion play in 1981 in Los Angeles. A punk show w/ China White, Bad Religion and Circle Jerks. Who else saw that show? Corner of Vermont and Santa Monica southeast corner of the intersection was where the theatre was.
Mike Ness is the epitome of underrated. He's an amazing frontman & songwriter, both lyrically and musically. As far as Quinten Tarrintino filling in on bass that day, idk whats goin on there. :P

Wow that's powerful, was it this version that was played?
And sorry for your loss
Charlie Browm Yes, this was the version I had them play. More appropriate than the faster version. I love both, but acoustic gets me for this song. And thank you.
+Christine Bond I'm sorry for your loss. And thank you for sharing your story. I also love this acoustic version very much.
Sorry for your loss.
I cant believe people actually dis-liked this... This is a fucking masterpiece...
Those people don't know real music.
Sure I don't I have only seen Social Distortion 3 times and own all their records but I don't know what real music is... Hey I have not been to college either for music production... Take it from aspen he knows everything.. He is so good with his ear at hearing good music several bands gt their start up from his dude when he discovered them in a bar..
i prefer the original version though..
People dislike everything that exicst.
I've got a reedy voice like Ness, What a songwriter, wish I'd followed my dream. Respect geezer 😎
My bday is this month. I had a father, a mother, and a sister. All passed on. First bday without direct blood on this earth. It's hitting hard. I'm left reaching for the sky. Rest In Peace sweet family.
Feel you. All of mine are gone too. Every.single.one.
@@DINKY77142 sorry. Very sorry. It sucks. Stay strong
😢 I don't have words, my brother. I send you a big hug, brother!
God is always with you, you will see the family on beautiful day I assure you 🙌❤️😊🙏Amen.
This album helped me through a real bad depression. Hearing the acoustic version is so powerful.
Social D in general has helped me thru MANY dark times over decades. This one, Angels Wings and Don't Take Me for Granted are all you need to live by
You said it. All of my depressions. I proudly have a dancing skeleton on my inside forearm to keep the demons away.

A very powerful song, and an anthem for the dark days we now find ourselves in.
Amazing!!!

thanks again.. i dont know how the world made it with out this band
The one band that has suited all the stages of my life
I love this this band
I thought that same thing!
He's amazing. He's saved my life and won't even know about it.
Amen
I couldn’t agree with you more.
When I was young I was invincible
I find myself not thinking twice
I never thought about no future
It's just a roll of the dice
But the day may come when you got something to lose
And just when you think you're done paying dues
You say to yourself, "Dear God, what have I done?"
And hope it's not too late 'cause tomorrow may never come
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come
Yesterday is history
And tomorrow's a mystery
But baby, right now
It's just about you and me
You can run, you can hide just like Bonnie and Clyde
Reach for the sky, ain't never gonna die
And I thank the Lord for the love that I have found
And hold you tight 'cause tomorrow may never come
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come
So if you please, take this moment
Try if you can to make it last
Don't think about no future
And just forget about the past
And make it last
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come
(Reach for the sky, ain't never gonna die)
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come
(Reach for the sky, ain't never gonna die)
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come
(Reach for the sky, ain't never gonna die)
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow may never come
M Ness
Saw these guys last night! Very moving show. Mike was wide open!
Better than Bad Religion, Green Day, Ramones, The Clash. Better than everyone! Social D is number one.
The vocal harmony of Ness & Harding is marvelous !!!
Holy hell it’s good🤘
This version gives me goosebumps...his voice is perfection :)
I wholeheartedly agree
You're perfection bby, hit me up girl.
Gives me goosebumps too. It’s just so beautiful. The pain and anguish in his voice is something special
you no!
😁✌🏻linda cancion
Found this gem today. On repeat now 😶 Amazing
You lucky bastard, I've been listening for 8 years, best cover ever!
The harmony by the bass player is incredible.
I had a father once who may have not been my blood but that old man took me to my first SD concert for my 22nd birthday. He showed me what good real hearted music is about. These guys are gunna lie in my heart as one of my favorite bands of all time. Thanks pops RIP
Kyle Woodring I tried my best raising you
Goosebumps inducer.
Great version of this song, and that bass player's backing vocals... amazing! He's like Mike Ness's personal angel.
im 63 now.. and still cant go a day with out listening to this beautifull song.. thanks for posting this...
Mike Ness is, hands down, the coolest dude on the planet.
You have not met me sir. Lol.
I have to agree
Brandon Del Pozo agreed
✊👌🤛
so true..
I've listened to this song about 20x in a row.....doesn't get old. Sets my mind at ease
Brother Mike can pen a song like nobody's business... And this version of "Reach For The Sky" kicks all kinds of ass.
unreal how good this sounds..better than the original fast version..these boys were on that day in az...mike ness one of the most underrated musicians of our time.
Agreed!
+Brian Gorman Sounds good but he needs better backing vocals.
+Brian Gorman From a hard core Social D fan
+Brian Gorman But he sounds sick as shit. His voice has always been awsome. but I have $500 in headphones and sound card on my PC and the back vocals sound like shit.
+Joshua D. Backing vocals sound awesome to me, love the country falsetto feel
Always makes me think of friends no longer with us. Sometimes with a smile, sometimes a tear.
Rip Bigfoot and Kidd. Gone but not forgotten.
Who could possibly not like this song?
Wow. That hit me way harder than I thought it would...vulnerable, pure, near perfect musically.
Wow. Great acoustic version. Love the accordion. Brought me to tears.
Yeah me too. Especially after my dad's service earlier today.
I'd been a fan of the original version for many years. But then in summer 2020, in the thick of the pandemic, weeks away from the birth of my first child (my son), I stumbled across this version and it hit me in the heart so hard it brought me to tears.

Music speaks louder than simply words. This song says everything! Beautiful.
this Band is one of the best bands to ever grace our ears . . .it is real unrefined and to the point . . Great song writer Mike Ness
One of the best and most original bands ever.
Ďakujem, že som objavil Social Distortion a človeka menom Mike Ness...ďakujem! Robíte môj život zmysluplným❤
After all these hard years Jesus has helped me through I've been listening to Social D and feels so good to hear them involve faith in their lyrics!
They have my vote for one of the greatest bands ever. All of their acoustic live stuff is over the top- cant get enough!
Best social d live ever....best live any band ever..this song is perfect
I just want to say this, I recently went to a Social Distortion gig. There were a lot older adults, but I'm sixteen and my friend is going on sixteen. I love to see how a band can, and will, keep reaching people from generation to generation. It's amazing.
One of my favorites Social Distortion's moments are the live performances! They really do great!
I've always liked Social Distortion and I like this song. I just found their acoustic stuff by mistake. I love this version! Powerful!!!
This is an amazing version. So beautiful. I can't stop listening to it
i know this is 2 years later, but fuck I can't either.
me too !
5 yrs later and im still coming back
Linda canción. Me gusta country
Why would somebody downvote this?!?! It's literally Social Distortion with an accordian!
This song touches so many feelings, because I've been through a lot of sh!t! But i'm still here loving Social D till the day I die.
Someone else here said that SD is the one band that suits all phases of their life. I find that to be true for me as well. Ness just has that talent for writing about whats real and can be related to by most folks. They have helped carry me through my teens, 20s, 30s, and presently 40s.

im 63 now.. and this song is my greatest inspiration.. thank you so much for posting this.. i listen to it daily...
Damn. Listen to this while going down a long country road while drinking lemonade. No worries. No anxiety. No cares. Can't be topped.
Listen to this while walking through a dirty and ugly city that you grew up in.
anyone still listening to this ? My dad played this for my moms funeral 3 weeks ago, she was really invincible
sorry for your loss bud
Been listening since my 13 year old self discovered them in 1990. Will love them to the end. Sorry about mom. Lost mine 7 years ago. Wish I could say it gets better, but it only gets easier.

I’m 47 been listening to them for a long time
Merci, tellement!!
Me and my twin thought we were Invinsable.. But we all pay our dues. And tomorrow really never comes when you need it to. She took her life, so I take this moment, but will never forget about the past.
when we were young, we NEVER thought of our futures
I just miss her so much..
Sorry to hear about your loss. Best of luck in the future..
Roxanne Santori Damn, sorry to hear that. ;(
sad sorry but it makes you stronger peace wish strenght
When I was young I was invincible,
I find myself now thinking twice,
I never thought about no future,
its just the roll of the dice.
But the day may come when you've got something to lose,
and just when you think you're done paying dues
And you say to yourself, dear God what Have I done?
And hope its not too late 'cause tomorrow may never come.
[Chorus:]
Reach For the Sky, 'cause tomorrow may never come
Reach For the Sky, 'cause tomorrow may never come
Yesterday is history and tomorrow's a mystery
But baby right now, its just about you and me,
You can run you can hide, just like Bonnie and Clyde
Reach for the sky ain't never gonna die,
and I thank the Lord for the love I have found
and hold you tight cause tomorrow may never come.
[Chorus]
So if you please take this moment
Try if you can make it last
Don't think about no future and just forget about the past
and make it last.

Great track!.. thought about, leaving this world a few hours ago,.. I've lost a lot, but gained some too.. i looked towards the sky, with this track playing over and over.. it has helped, thank you! 1❤
The world may be a big place and you may seem so small in it, but know it wouldn't be the same without your presence. Life can get tough and times but I know you can get stronger. The downs will always plateau at some point and you will always be able to pick yourself up. I hope you can always find some happiness within yourself during your dark times. Just remember, even people you don't know, appreciate you.

Absolutely Beautiful! After all these years, true legends.
Beautiful
I know this song reminds a lot of us about loved ones that are not with us anymore.. for me that’s my best friend Marc, he was my boy, my partner in crime, God Father to my son, I miss you so much my brother, words just can’t describe. 🙏🥰😢
Those harmonies are amazing. You can see how much Brent feels every single note. Marvelous.
I’m miss music.
Social Distortion is so underrated. They were soundtrack to the best years of my life.
Well, that is, they were a big part of it.
Today is the 5 year anniversary of my brothers death and we both love/ed Social D fiercely. I found this version many years ago and we both loved it. We would play it during special occasions. Since his Death I had been staying away from it but today of all days it popped up on my Playlist of almost 500 songs. This song means the world to me.
Best use of an accordion ever...
I don't know why, but this song always steal me some tears. Beautiful!!
This is the best version of this song, social d song ever made, performed or otherwise. fucking fucking love. love you mike ness.
I sat with Mike at Ichabods in Fullerton the night before he was going to be incarcerated. I told him he had a great future in his music and not to give up hope or drive. I hope I played a small part in his success
Beautiful version. The voices, the acoustic guitars, everything.

I still can't get enough of social distortion in my life mike Ness is the one that keeps it real!
Oh wie ich es liebe!! Anlage auf Anschlag und aus voller Kehle mitsingen ♡
Social Distortion and Dropkick Murphys creating music together would make my life complete,
ShadowLinx20111 that would be epic!!
ShadowLinx20111 why inject amateurs into musical perfection. The murphs can kiss SD's shoes.
lol i guess i am
I was thinking the same thing!!
Hell yeah
simply at a loss for words..this versions is simply amazing...breath taking.. and beyound words.
Billy Todd I absolutely love it. I play guitar and sing. This is one of my favorites
Every time I hear this song it makes me think of me n my boy Marc running wild causing fun troubles having the time of our lives with so much ahead of us.. he’s been gone 2 years now and it’s just the worst, especially knowing he won’t see my kid grow up, I miss you my brother, always, RIP 🙏✊😥

I've been listening to these guys for 30 years seen them live a few times and have NEVER been disappointed!!!
Discovered this band way too late in life.(when I was 16. I'm 32 now.) Been a fan ever since. This band helped me in most of the tough parts of my life to this day and I will always be a fan.
Foi a primeira musica do Social que eu ouvi, lembro que ouvi ela pela primeira vez em 2009, fiquei apaixonado pelo refrão
I’ve seen social D ten times in my life the first in 1992 fresh out of high school in the Marines in Hawaii. I’ve been going to concerts since I was 5 years old and have been to tons. Mike Ness is so underrated in the music industry it’s stupid. I took my 4 year to see social d just 2 weeks ago, he knows every song and this being his favorite one of all. Social Distortion has never put on a shitty show ever and probably never will for that fact. Glad I grew up a punk and I’ll die a punk.
Glad i found this...my favorite band that got me through decades. Seen them a few times over the years ...great meaningful song.
Always give me spirit if I listening mike ness singing this song.
i love this song so much>>>
They need to come out with an acoustic album. These are amazingg
Legendary, mythical!
I just love this song and this performance. Mike, you are the man!
This version is FANTASTIC
Beautiful version of one of my favorite Social D songs. And I'm sorry but the backup vocals are fantastic and I am super impressed with the harmonies of the higher pitch voice in this version.
love listening to this beautiful song.. thanks so much for posting this...
Hell yes! One of my all time favorite bands! Timeless music.
Ah, We saw Social Distortion play in 1981 in Los Angeles. A punk show w/ China White, Bad Religion and Circle Jerks. Who else saw that show? Corner of Vermont and Santa Monica southeast corner of the intersection was where the theatre was.

That looks more like ted cruz hahaha
+Edith Piaf eek! I cannot unsee him as Ted now. Lol
That’s actually Brett Harding, he played bass with CJ Ramon
so genuine. so beutiful. i relate so very much with the lyrichs. thank u social distortion for this wonderful song.
I really love on how well really good punk switches to acoustic so well. This is the stuff that is played from the heart.
Why am I crying?

Cause it's truth
Cause you're a bitch?
You are human
@@sagechris4742 fucking asshole!
California's best punk band of all time.PERIOD!
Steve Gonzales worlds greatest.
You got me there mack.

One of the best songs I've heard in a while!!!!
Reach for the Sky
Social Distortion
LYRICS
When I was young I was invincible,
I found myself not thinking twice,
I never thought about no future,
It's just the roll of the dice,
But the day may come,
When you've got something to lose,
And just when you think you're done paying dues,
When you say to yourself
Dear god, what have I done?
I hope it's not too late because tomorrow,
May never come,
Reach for the sky 'cus tomorrow,
May never come,
Reach for the sky 'cus tomorrow,
May never come,
Yesterday is history,
And tomorrow's a mystery,
But being here right now,
It's just about you and me,
You can run, you can hide,
Just like Bonnie and Clyde,
Reach for the sky,
Ain't never gonna die,
And I thank the lord for the love that I have found,
And hold you tight 'cause tomorrow,
May never come,
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow,
May never come,
Reach for the sky 'cause tomorrow,
May never come,
So if you please, take this moment,
Try if you can to make it last,
Don't think about the future,
And just forget about the past,
And make it last.
At my age these lyrics are even more meaningful now
