    Class of 99 here. Crazy how relatable this is at 43 years old, 24 years later. I wish the 18 yr old mind could absorb this the same as a 40 yr old mind can.

    I first heard this song in the 90’s (I was in my early twenties) It made sense then. I had cancer shortly after and then it returned in my 30’s. Just turned 48 and have just been diagnosed with lung cancer. I didn’t start to look after my body until I was early 30’s and I’ve paid the price. Even my teeth are suffering and I’m far from poor. I’m a leading expert in my field and earn in the top 1%. We have an amazing house and beautiful things, cars, motorcycles etc. That all means nothing now. I have an amazing wife and I’m terrified I will leave her alone because I never looked after my biggest asset. Me.
    If you’re reading this and you’re young, please take it in. Listen. I thought I’d live forever. 30 years old seemed old when I was young. It’s not. Neither is 40,50,60, or 70+. Life is so amazing and so unbelievably short, please don’t waste it.

      Absolutely DB....I'm slowly realising this at 47....and more so the last year...lost 6 good friends to various illnesses...all in 12 months...the youngest 43.
      Life is short....far too short.....we can all be deleted by accident or even in our sleep as my friend Martin was... sports, gym nut... fitness fanatic.... respiratory failure in his sleep.
      So yes.....make the most of and appreciate the simple things of life.....never lose those values people... Create precious moments.
      Life isn't a competition to out do or keep up with the neighbouring Jones'🤯🥴
      Bless anyone who's taken note of this track🤗
      All the best DB🙏🏼.... and to all who may read any comments.
      One luv One💙One Life

      I remember this from 99, I was 12 and in year 7 here in Australia. I’m 34 now and come back every now and then over the years, to this extremely simplistic yet astoundingly effective and honest piece. And it’s only in these latter years, does the song make total sense. I used to wonder as a kid what half of what he was saying was about in a young, naive way. Not understanding the need for life experience inevitably. The song always stuck out though, even way back then. Anyone can associate meaning behind these lyrics through life experience. What a trip to hear again. What a trip to further understand and feel this beauty years later. Massive flood of nostalgia as I’m listening to this. So intense.

    Millennials never got a chance to lie to themselves about the nobility of the politicans of their youth. We were born under Reaganomics and the slow collapse of the middle class.

      uhm seriously, supposing you are not a racist, why do you say not to mix races? from scientific outlook its genetically better than mixing similar people or somehow related of course.

      "Racist" one's genetic bond to forefathers
      nothing evil about it, until Leon Trotsky changed its meaning to convince his Reds Army to kill White patriots in Russia...
      Miscegenation has been studied by scientists not on the dole of nwo globalist elites who want everybody to mix, lose identity, a one size fits all box planet.
      But you go ahead and kill your dna lineage. Some people just don't care about it. I do.

      If it weren't for the recessive and dominant genes possessed in different "race" (we're all human, there are no different races), but for the genetics, it's been proven people with a healthy mix of both genes have lesser chances for genetic and mental disease.
      But of course, obvious troll is obvious.

    Life really is what you make it. You can find every reason to be depressed and many more reasons to worry and be stressed but once you realise that way of thinking gets you nowhere and only holds you back life begins. We are all children of the most high, we are more then apes, if you ever feel lonely just look at the night sky.

    You will always take things for granted. You will never be able to ask your parents enough questions or get to know them as well as you want to. But you don't realize these things until something you took for granted gets taken away, until your parents are gone and cannot answer any more questions. Life is life. This is a beautiful 'song.' I love these words.

    I'm so glad to hear this version, I remember hearing the woman's voice in a commercial advertisement for a new Dodge Van that was out at the time. And for the longest time I would hear that song and wonder what it was, and looked for that actual commercial to see if I could get the song from it in the comments page. Can't believe I found it! God bless UA-cam!

People will speak of it, or versions of it and refer to this, on graduations for another 100 years, easy. Truly a Masterpiece, set in words. Cheers 🎓💯
