A good friend shared this video with me. I had never seen it before. But I was just diagnosed with cancer and this video really picked me up. Now I watch it a lot just because it makes me smile.
+DeAnn Padelo I love this song -- just came across it. How are you doing? I am a member of the cancer club too -- I'm sure UA-cam people would love to hear from you. This is just the best place to find good music.
DeAnn Padelo hey how are you doing. it's been so busy the past few months that I have lost track of email UA-cam videos and the remote. hope you are fine and enjoying some Spring weather. I thought it would never get here. on April 9th here in Maryland we had hail in the morning and a little snow and sleet in the afternoon. Take care would love to hear from you.
Hmmm. Not a bad idea. This needs it's own dance craze, like the Happy Song! How could that get started...? Really like this guy's style, energy, and of course his great voice! Wish nothing put the best for Alex!
I play this for my kids every morning before they leave for school. It turns all their funk into funky and they go from bitter to better as they brush off the yuck and get on the bus with a smile. It's so contagious the neighbor kids now come over to hear the song before they walk to the bus with my kids. yay Mr.Boye!! You make kids hearts sing instead of sink. Thank you.
doood... what is radio??? a mix of best songs of the world? hahahaahahahahahahahaahah best joke ive heard in my life. i cant listen to radio more than 2 minutes and my ears fall off
I am someone who doesn't buy music... ever. Nothing I have heard playing on the radio ever seemed worth the effort of purchasing. But I heard your song the other day for the first time after a really bad week and was so inspired and uplifted by it, I had to have a copy of my own! :) Thank you for this song and I hope that you continue to make good music with much success in the future! God Bless :D
"I know that I'm not where I'm meant to be, but I thank God that I'm not where I used to be. " powerful words and true to me. Thank you for making an old artist smile when he needed it.
You will not believe how much I love this guy! I love his style of music and style of clothing. I love that white mark he puts by his eye. I love his smoothing, soft voice when he sings. His soft eyes that say, " It will be all right. " Alex Boyé, you are my biggest idol! I don't care if you don't write music, you make everything sound better!
Every time I discover a new Alex Boye video it's like Christmas Morning for me! He's so amazing! His solo work is so inspired. It keeps a smile on my face and my mood upbeat. I adore his work with the Children's choir, and the various other artists he works with...the compositions are truly unique and fun. Thank you for sharing your gift with us Mr. Boye! You are a treasure!
I don't normally enjoy many Alex Boye songs, but I actually enjoy this song. And I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that this is an original. Well done, Alex!
Sometimes you have to hear a song a few times till It grows on you....not this one. I LOVED it! Super catchy, great track and cute concept. Good Job Alex! So proud of you-Lily Rubio
SO LOVE this guy (these guys)... feel shades of Outkast, a little Fine Young Cannibals, A LOT of one of my all-time fave bands of the 80's the Busboys! ... AND, Will be FOLLOWING Alex Boye ALL THE WAY on AGT this year....
I think I've watched this video and listened to this song around 8,000,000,000,000,000 times!!!! Why isn't it on the radio everywhere? It is sooo amazing!
This song literally changed my life, I was in 3rd grade when I heard this song, my music teacher taught my class to sing this for an in-school concert. later that year we moved away and the happy feeling of back then vanished, I will always hold a special place in my heart for this song, Thank you Mr. Boye
Alex, I thought, at first, that Will Ferrell was in your music video. Am I the only one who sees a resemblance? Congratulations on all the new doors opening to you and your band!🎶👍🏼
+J L Grogan It's a mock of him, or rather Ron Burgandy, I kinda saw it too but after that last bit with him at the every end i definitely saw them copying the character's personality. Plus the red outfit is kind of a give away.
I went on a Top Deck tour at the end of 2014 and they repeatedly played this on the bus. I love this song it brings back so many awesome memories as well as being an awesome song.
Makayla Osborn I really think that if he sang this song 'Lemonade' on AGT, he would get the golden buzzer. Good message and good singing. And it's not cheesy.
I love your version of Happy and Let it Go... but I think this is the best one yet! Love what it says... When Life gives you lemons.... defiantly make lemonade!
Just wondering... are you coming to concert in Alabama any time soon maybe???? crosses fingers... If you ever did me and my family would be first in line!
Lyrics for all the peeps: I'm just so broke you won't believe Can't get a dollar out of me And as far as I can see I'm losing control like a bad disease No I just can't get relief I've been shot down by the life police, And everyday I try to rise But I can't succeed Can anybody find a cure for me? You can be bitter, bitter, bitter Or you can be better, better, better When life gives you lemons Instead of champagne Don't worry little children And don't complain (woh) Remember you're golden So find some sugar cane When life gives you lemons Make lemonade Hama kama hama kama heyama kama x2 Now everyday is like a brand new year, I throw my hands up in the air Like I just don't care, I'm moon walking down the streets Feeling like oh yeah (oh yeah!) like the bottom of the glass now I see clear So now I laugh just a little more (Yeeheheee!) I stand much taller than I did before (Yahahaa!) I know I'm not where I need to be But I thank God that I'm not where I used to be, I used to be bitter, bitter bitter And now I feel better, better, better When life gives you lemons Instead of champagne Don't worry little children And don't complain (woh) Remember you're golden So find some sugar cane When life gives you lemons Make lemonade Hama kama hama I was saved for a reason That I can't explain Got something new to believe in I'm awakened again (who woh) So many miracles are Happening each day If I can just get out of (Elelele) My own way Le-le-le-le-Lemonade Lemony-lemony-le-lemonade Lemo-lemo, Woo!
I saw Alex Boye perform at Caesars Windsor last night when he opened up for Leann Rimes. He played this song and I thought it was great!! I know people who need lemonades! Keep up the great work Alex!!
now that's how you write a youtube description! Yes - enjoy the moments, reach for better, look towards the good no matter how bad, make it on top and then nothing' going to hurt - it'll be deflected like one has armor. Learning from the greats lifts us up - as we have all the history we need to better ourselves - more than any other time in history!
it's not my style of music but I love Alex Boye's positive message, it's something that is greatly needed in today's world. his story is one of great faith
Your words above are a perfect description of life as I know it. Sometimes I think I've become the kind of person I have the absolute least patience for. Thanks for this...I'm off to buy this one (and every other one I can!)...and listen to it every single morning. Time to jump the pity train and dance a bit! :D
I remember being in 3rd grade and listening to this wonderful song. It's got a nice, optimistic message, and reminds me of those simple, fun days back then.
I just discovered this song and it has brought a lot of hope to me and optimism in the midst of a few big trials for me...:thank you so much Alex Boye!!!!! Music is my outlet and I sing this all day everyday now!
i love this song but for some reason, on Spotify, i can only find the edited version, which literally changes "instead of champagne"to "its guna be okay". i really want the regular version cause the original line is much stronger. it would be great if that was looked into or something...
It was changed because in order to enter the Radio Disney competition they made him change that line. That is the only reason. Disney deemed "instead of champagne" inappropriate.
You are soooo gifted. Your songs and interpretation are truly inspired. ...PLEASE don't stop..keep going. ..WE need you !! Thankyou for sharing it with us...Xoxoxo
![The Dead South - In Hell I'll Be In Good Company [Official Music Video]](/img/n.gif)
Alex Boye deserves so much more fame! His music is so uplifting and awesome!
ikr
I swear man.
I like this song
He's not done yet :)
if he pumps out fruity songs like this - I'd be down!
A good friend shared this video with me. I had never seen it before. But I was just diagnosed with cancer and this video really picked me up. Now I watch it a lot just because it makes me smile.
+DeAnn Padelo I wish you the best, I'm a 25 year cancer survivor. God bless you, you can do it!
+DeAnn Padelo I love this song -- just came across it. How are you doing? I am a member of the cancer club too -- I'm sure UA-cam people would love to hear from you. This is just the best place to find good music.
+Jane Sellman I think I'm doing better. Had surgery and they think they got it. Follow ups every 4 months.
+DeAnn Padelo Please eat the proper nutrition and take care of yourself!
DeAnn Padelo hey how are you doing. it's been so busy the past few months that I have lost track of email UA-cam videos and the remote. hope you are fine and enjoying some Spring weather. I thought it would never get here. on April 9th here in Maryland we had hail in the morning and a little snow and sleet in the afternoon. Take care would love to hear from you.
There needs to be a universal speaker so everyone can listen to this while getting dressed in the morning and walking to wherever they have to be .
Ikr. This song always makes my day
Hmmm. Not a bad idea. This needs it's own dance craze, like the Happy Song!
How could that get started...?
Really like this guy's style, energy, and of course his great voice! Wish nothing put the best for Alex!
Natalie Bateman it's a daymaking song, just like don't worry be happy. :D
He spoke at my Youth Fireside.
That's awesome!! What state do you live in?
I play this for my kids every morning before they leave for school. It turns all their funk into funky and they go from bitter to better as they brush off the yuck and get on the bus with a smile. It's so contagious the neighbor kids now come over to hear the song before they walk to the bus with my kids. yay Mr.Boye!! You make kids hearts sing instead of sink. Thank you.
Lemonade is my favorite drink and now my favorite song.

Alex, I thought, at first, that Will Ferrell was in your music video. Am I the only one who sees a resemblance?
Congratulations on all the new doors opening to you and your band!🎶👍🏼
+J L Grogan It's a mock of him, or rather Ron Burgandy, I kinda saw it too but after that last bit with him at the every end i definitely saw them copying the character's personality. Plus the red outfit is kind of a give away.
I think that was the goal. :)
8 years later and I still love this. Can’t believe it’s been 8 years!
A great song co-written by Alex, and a great video to go with it. Great job entertaining us Alex!
I love this song. It changed my day back around.
I like it tow. What I don't get is way people hate it so much Alixe is a good guy realy so way hate it think if you don't get what I'm said.
Alex, you are the greatest artist on UA-cam! Amazing!
Avery creative artist
I'm digging this! Well done, Alex!!!
+Cashflow is Contagious! Ya this is always my jam :)
love your videos....
I hope so many people in my country enjoy this 🍋Lemonade🍋 song ‼️
AWESOME!!
Such a positive, uplifting song, and I love when the strings kick in on the chorus at (0:48). That just does it for me every time.
So fun! I loved the box of lemons from "life". It was great how colorful and fun this one was. What band were you playing with at the end?
I just saw the band here in Seattle with Alex Boye in concert. Their band name is "Paul Childers & The Black Tie Affair". They were great!
yeah do lion king I think it would suit you!!
amazing
I went on a Top Deck tour at the end of 2014 and they repeatedly played this on the bus. I love this song it brings back so many awesome memories as well as being an awesome song.
U saw Alex boye on Americas got talent I thought he deserved the gold buzzer
I absolutely agree!
Yea
Yep
Makayla Osborn I really think that if he sang this song 'Lemonade' on AGT, he would get the golden buzzer. Good message and good singing. And it's not cheesy.
Parker Peterson This was after he auditioned. If you look at the dates they are different. But this would have been a great song to audition to. :D
Nice song! Great producer and artist. Props to Mr.Jerry Wonda and Mr.Alex Boye. May God continue to bless.
Think I found my new favorite guy to listen to! Your voice is awesome and you are so much fun to watch. You are awesome!
Made our day! My 8 and 6 year-old were running around the house with lemons singing this song. Thanks. Just what the doctor ordered!!
I love the guy at the end. Made me laugh even more.
l love this! The guy who rode his unicycle lives in our ward, so cute to see him entertain for you! l loved it!
Best song ever I listen to it daily
+nanny bunny9 Did you listen to it today?
My new favorite song! I love it.
Hahaha... awesome.. And I can see my big puffy afro head in there.. it was so fun participating in that 😃😃🙌🙌
So awesome,I really appreciate this vibe.
I see you Marj,Keep it up.
:)
I love your version of Happy and Let it Go... but I think this is the best one yet! Love what it says... When Life gives you lemons.... defiantly make lemonade!

Lyrics for all the peeps:
I'm just so broke you won't believe
Can't get a dollar out of me
And as far as I can see
I'm losing control like a bad disease
No I just can't get relief
I've been shot down by the life police,
And everyday I try to rise
But I can't succeed
Can anybody find a cure for me?
You can be bitter, bitter, bitter
Or you can be better, better, better
When life gives you lemons
Instead of champagne
Don't worry little children
And don't complain (woh)
Remember you're golden
So find some sugar cane
When life gives you lemons
Make lemonade
Hama kama hama kama heyama kama x2
Now everyday is like a brand new year,
I throw my hands up in the air
Like I just don't care,
I'm moon walking down the streets
Feeling like oh yeah (oh yeah!)
like the bottom of the glass now I see clear
So now I laugh just a little more (Yeeheheee!)
I stand much taller than I did before (Yahahaa!)
I know I'm not where I need to be
But I thank God that I'm not
where I used to be,
I used to be bitter, bitter bitter
And now I feel better, better, better
When life gives you lemons
Instead of champagne
Don't worry little children
And don't complain (woh)
Remember you're golden
So find some sugar cane
When life gives you lemons
Make lemonade
Hama kama hama
I was saved for a reason
That I can't explain
Got something new to believe in
I'm awakened again (who woh)
So many miracles are
Happening each day
If I can just get out of (Elelele)
My own way
Le-le-le-le-Lemonade
Lemony-lemony-le-lemonade
Lemo-lemo, Woo!
I used to listen to this song when I was younger, and I just rediscovered it here. I remember just dancing to this song repeatedly.
Wow that is amazing. Could you do some lion king songs? That would be amazing!
What a legend
Needed to hear this today!! Still love this song!!! ❤️
My favorite song ever. So uplifting.
I started smiling within the first 10 seconds. so much love lol
The bass oh my god.. Really enjoy it. Play it over and over again.
I saw this video on TBD and now I'm hooked. Thanks for putting a smile on my face.
John Barton
Finally, Another TBD watcher!! :D

I love how Alex can even make lemonade this awesome.
Thank's Alex I'm so desperate till I heard this song, this make me stronger than before
I LOVE THIS SONG so much! I want to hug Alex Boye for making me feel this joy.

This is such an uplifting song I deify anyone not to feel happier after hearing that song. Fantastic keep up the good work. I like this, do you?
My serotonin said 📈📈📈📈📈
I don't know why I clicked on this but I'm glad I did!
I love it! Please Africanize Tribal Cover more songs and make it an album!
Am I the only one who thinks this is his best song?
it's not my style of music but I love Alex Boye's positive message, it's something that is greatly needed in today's world. his story is one of great faith
AMAZING! I love your voice and it's very impressive that you're the only famous person who doesn't post crappy videos! I love this songs!(:
Needed this smile and chuckle! Your “Ron Burgundy” look-alike was very amusing.
Should have actually gotten Will Ferral in on this bro!
That's who the guy in the red suit looked like!
I love everything about him! Especially his style!
It is a song that would help lemony snicket cope w/ unfortunate events!
What a great outlook...when life is bitter, make it better. I love this quote. I love this song.
Now I want a lemonade
Your words above are a perfect description of life as I know it. Sometimes I think I've become the kind of person I have the absolute least patience for. Thanks for this...I'm off to buy this one (and every other one I can!)...and listen to it every single morning. Time to jump the pity train and dance a bit! :D
When can we purchase this on iTunes?
I remember being in 3rd grade and listening to this wonderful song. It's got a nice, optimistic message, and reminds me of those simple, fun days back then.
I have the strongest urge to watch Anchor Man now...... 😆
I was thinking the same thing.
i still think this should be played on the radio
You should be on tv
i mean i just cant stop listening to this. it is so good.
That guy playing the guitar reminded me of the Anchorman
just my toughts
They did that on purpose, actually. Watch till the very end...
This is my favorite song. It makes me so happy.
happy music ^^
This is the happiest song I've ever heard
WOW FANTASTIC♫♪♫
ALEX BOYE ....WONDERFUL SINGER . I love his song so much ! Thanks dear !
I just discovered this song and it has brought a lot of hope to me and optimism in the midst of a few big trials for me...:thank you so much Alex Boye!!!!! Music is my outlet and I sing this all day everyday now!
Too bad you didn't get the real Ron Burgundy. That would have been awesome!
Obsessed With This Song!
i love this song but for some reason, on Spotify, i can only find the edited version, which literally changes "instead of champagne"to "its guna be okay". i really want the regular version cause the original line is much stronger. it would be great if that was looked into or something...
It was changed because in order to enter the Radio Disney competition they made him change that line. That is the only reason. Disney deemed "instead of champagne" inappropriate.
@@MackNJacishopper Stupid Disney
You are soooo gifted. Your songs and interpretation are truly inspired. ...PLEASE don't stop..keep going. ..WE need you !! Thankyou for sharing it with us...Xoxoxo
3:34 like if you would rather have Alex Boye's autograph than Ron Burgundy's autograph!
Bad Comment
Such a "feel-Good" song for all the bad times! We needed this song,and I love it!!
When Life Gives You Lemons Make Apple Juice!
Mabusai da heck
