This is the story of our life! He was 22 and I was 19. By the grace of God we were married 53 years before he passed away September 28th 2018. He listened to this song over and over when he found out he had cancer! And yes, I will always remember when ❤😪
Went through this with my husband, also. He taught himself to play this and I recorded it. Now I have him "with me" every day. Made copies for all the grown children ❤
My wife was at the end of her battle with breast cancer when this came out,I'll never forget walking into our bedroom and there she sat with tears streaming down her face....rest in peace Sharon... remember when
This is March 28th, 2024 and I’m still playing his music-Alan and George Strait are what country music is all about! I’m 77 and love there music so much!
I'm here listening to this in 2021 .. I would like to see who's like me searching for these beautiful songs ✨❣ Edit: I'm glad to see people to this day and from our generation listen to these songs ✌🏻😭
I was camping with my girlfriend and our neighbours had heaps of country music playing (this was a week ago) and this song came on, and I froze, it was my first time hearing it and wow it took my breath away. Now I can’t stop listening to it!
Truth starter, I cannot imagine experiencing such a tragedy. I am so sorry it happened. I pray that you and the audience enjoy your performance of this powerful song.
I lost my BEST friend on May 4th at.5:45am holding his hand. Early that evening he whispered to me I love you Ray. He would tell every body that I was his brother from another mother. Got Strang looks since I was older than him. Miss him , he would call me. One time he called me at 4;00 in the morning. Three o'clock his time. We spoke for over an hour. He just needed to talk. I was there for him as he would was there for me.
I remember this song so well. My oldest daughter rushing off to get married to someone no one believed in…watching her struggle, helped where we could for 3 years. Finally she came home safe…but I remember crying worrying about her
I’m 58 , retired,married for 35 years, to my high school sweetheart, just like Mr. Jackson. A son and daughter on their own. I can’t express how much I can relate to his music. Especially this song, and Drive. Time goes by to fast . I would go back in a heartbeat. So,if you’re reading this and are just getting started. Enjoy every minute, don’t take it for granted !! Every hug, smile, good time, and bad, because one day you will REMEMBER WHEN. .... Have a great life !!
Thank you - this life just keeps going faster & faster! I use to feel bullet proof, knew everything & I had ALL the time in the world! It was just yesterday it feels like! Maybe 20+ yrs ago? What happened? I feel like the day I figure it out will be the day my Father will call me home. It will be so bittersweet to leave behind my babies here but I know mammaw & grandad, nana goose, mother Nell, aunt Johnelle, my beloved Russ - they will be there to comfort me.
I'm 77yrs old and I feel so much peace listening to Country music 2023. Thank you Mr Jackson. May Sweet Jesus place His Healing Hands on you . God Bless.
I have watching and listening to you from the beginning . I especially Love your gospel music, I watched you one night when your sweet mother was there. I always wanted a mother like that since I was 5yrs old .
Mr. Jackson I was raised in 9 foster homes and abruised physically and sexually by the time I was 9 yrs old and I Thank Jesus for helping me through my childhood. Your daughters are beautiful protect them. God Bless.
@@barbaramcleod1587 That means you're e a core and loyal fan of mine; I'm currently trying to reach out to my most loyal fans, would you like to keep communicating with me privately?
Time goes by too fast. I'm just 40, with 2 little ones and I'm clinging to every moment with them because I know it won't be long until they're grown and moved away too.
My wife and i have been married 44 years. we met in 1977 through my sister. We were on the brink of separation when this song came out. I can honestly say i sat and cried listening to it. I had so much to apologize for and I did. To this day 21 years later our love has grown tremendously. I thank you Alan Jackson for this release and your other songs like Living on Love, The Older I Get. You are the best. I thank my Lord Jesus for life and pray for your healing.
The greatest songs are those whose words are clear and whose lyrics have everlasting meaning. Alan Jackson is a throwback to a simpler time. A time I wish we could return to.
It's the first week of April 2024, still love this song and will always remember how Alan Jackson's music touched so many people and their lives. I will always treasure this song and especially the lyrics. To think I am in my late 60's and have always loved this song. Thank you Alan Jackson for such great music.
My husband moved to heaven April 25th, 2023 and he loved Alan Jackson and his music. We used to slow dance in our living room to this song. ❤ I’ll always remember when

I used to plays this every morning when my wife was in the last 6 months of her life and I was nursing her, it means so much after 50 years 4 children and 11 grandchildren, I had it played at her funeral in Feb 2020 and just crumble every time I listen as I remember well in tears writing this music is so powerful .
I’m seventy five, it’s Thanksgiving night and I’m playing my mandolin and my granddaughter brought this song to my attention and I can’t get it out of my mind. It has made me cry, it is so true to life, married my wife fifty three years ago, still in love, kids all moved out. My new favorite song, I’ve been practicing on mandolin all night. Thanks Mr.Jackson
I've played music for over three decades. But just bought my first Mandolin. I have wanted one for a long awhile. This song and a few others were in my head with nice Mandolin making me want to get one. My Aunt was a huge Alan Jackson fan as well. She had albums, dinner plates of him, his cooking book that was published. And Alan Jackson Christmas ornaments on her tree. 🙂 I'm glad to see someone else treasure the song and enjoy playing it.
Aina Jackson good song cry mss love 💖 you a little while ut is going ☺️😊 it the 🔚 e a week of a new 😞🆕 with a while ago but 😭😭 weeks you could have done 👍 in u can get a new 😞🤔 is going 😀🎩 years ago in a little r your gonna have time 😘 for you baby animania anime girlfriend room for me too but 💞 minutes away on my yo
I hate that saying" thier in a better place" So sorry for your loss. A broken heart takes time to heal, you will always remember when all the good times you both shared, that never goes away.

My brother was missing when the tower's came down, his wife miscarried twins day before, he went home to be with her, that's the only reason he's alive. ❤❤
This song now makes me think about my previous daddy and mother. My daddy has dementia and can no longer “Remember When” . I scanned photos from their first date in 1959 to present. They celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary last December. We played the slide show while they danced the first dance. My daddy didn’t know where he was but somehow the photos moved him and he talked about it for nearly a week. Music is so powerful. Thank you Alan Jackson for writing this song and recording it for us to include in celebrating my parents life together. Did I mention. Momma was 16 and daddy was 19 when they married.

One of the most powerful songs I’ve ever heard. The words “old ones died, and new were born” really hits home. Our youngest son was born the same year grandpa died.
So sorry to hear about your loss. Of course we all have to face those days sometime or another. We just have to ask Our Heavenly Father for strength to get us thru those times when we loose those Cherished Loved Ones. I know I miss my Dad and Mom something terrible. I try to live my life as pleasing to Our Heavenly Father as I can so I can hear him say some day to me Enter in My faithful and well done Servant . I pray the same for you also and your family.❌⭕️🙏❤️
I'm in the last quarter of my life, and i've been doin' some lookin' back. It's all flown by, and it's been an amazing ride. Would i change some things? Yeah. But mostly it's been wonderful, magical, tearful, painful, miraculous. Thank you God. Thank you. What a gift.
Amen.. I'm 65 today and it's been a wild ride for me by by the grace of God Himself, I've made it this far. When this virus came about, I told myself, just another hurdle I'll have to jump but like the 1000 before, God's got my back.
Im 72 yrs old, on the last quarter of my life. Alan Jackson and his compositions make me very happy and very thankful. I love this "Remember When" so much!
Alan is up there with the greats,george jones,waylon,willie,johnny etc.His songs are about LIFE& living.This song is poignant.We all remember where we were on that september day.😢
I lost my beautiful son 18 months ago now my beautiful daughter passed away so Lani go and be with your brother Michael i miss you both so much it hurts more and more how much can a mother take I would like to thank all these people responding back thank you with all my heart xxx
@@yesbutnotnow thank you so much with all my heart but it doesn't get any easier to loose two beautiful children in less than two years how much can a mother take thank you so much Julie
Remember when I was young and so were you And time stood still and love was all we knew You were the first, so was I We made love and then you cried Remember when Remember when we vowed the vows and walked the walk Gave our hearts, made the start, it was hard We lived and learned, life threw curves There was joy, there was hurt Remember when Remember when old ones died and new were born And life was changed, disassembled, rearranged We came together, fell apart And broke each other's hearts Remember when Remember when the sound of little feet Was the music we danced to week to week Brought back the love, we found trust Vowed we'd never give it up Remember when Remember when thirty seemed so old Now lookin' back, it's just a steppin' stone To where we are, where we've been Said we'd do it all again Remember when Remember when we said when we turned gray When the children grow up and move away We won't be sad, we'll be glad For all the life we've had And we'll remember when Remember when Remember when
Time stood still when I met my true love of 50 years, even more because we met at age 14 & 15 & have been married 50yrs as of this past October 5th 2023. Thank you Paul for all of the Love. We are two of the lucky ones!♥️♥️
He's one of the greatest examples of fascinating manhood who has ever lived now or ever..... It's too bad most of the young guys wearing nuts today won't even stop and listen to this song. The x generation is so into rapper stuff you'll never hear anything they need to hear so badly to help him guide them.... I believe Alan Jackson is exclusively one of the very rare true gentlemen I'm telling you that has never been born.
I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful children. I have lost a beautiful daughter and I miss her every day. It's been 8 years since her passing at the young age of 23. My heart breaks for you.
I’ve lost both of my grandparents and my parents recently. All at once. It hurts really bad I understand. But not like losing a child. I’m sure. Hang in there mama.
2024 my wife and I celebrated 40th anniversary. we met at a Christmas party in the women's barracks while serving in the Air Force. both went to college after serving without student loans, raised two daughters and helped put them through college. we both have had cancer and are doing well. there's more but that was enough.
As a African American I love the heart felt lyrics of what is called country music. The heart and passion transcends labels, this song is about the human race
Bless you and your heart for this Country! I am a Navy vet and LOVE this Country ! I’m not so proud of what this Country has donee to its own! I truly prey that we ALL can be ONE!! I truly Love All who stand for THIS COUNTRY, no matter Color, DAMIT!!!
Jake I love all types of music. And its a toss up on witch I love more, county or jazz and the blues. There's one thing I am sure of and it was taught to me at a early age. There is always lesson of life in music to be learn. We just need to take the time to listen and learn those lesson. Learn these lesson and stop the hate of one another because of there belief their political thought and damit the color of their skin. My god , my creator made one mistake when in made man. because of the beauty of ever thing else he gave man different color also, and then here come the devil. And back to music Paul Revere and the Raiders have a song Indian Nation and it talks about Cherokee nation will return. We need to think about that
Every couple comes to a time - usually more than once - where it would be easy to say, "forget it" and bail on the marriage. But understanding that the marriage is more important than the issues, brings you to a place where the relationship not only doesn't fail, but it transcends to a different level. Yes, pre-high school sweetheart (she was 12, I was 13 when we first became a couple) and 3 daughters. 42 years. She is my only and I am her only (and I wouldn't have it any other way).
My wife of 23 years passed away October 28th 2021. I remember when she was still with me and all the good memories we made together. I converted her over to country music 🎶. I don't think she gave it much thought before we got together. We got reunited at our 30th highschool reunion. I fell in love with her at first sight. My life changed forever that night. Once in a lifetime a special kind of love comes around and we grabbed it and never let go. I love you baby doll

One of the most beautiful songs ever written because he wrote it straight from his heart and love for his wife and family. Doesn't get much better than that.
How can you not love this song. It's sung by an amazing man. I remember when I do. Thank you Albert for 11 Years Now your gone and you broke my heart I remember when with a tear in my eye
I just lost my hubby this past June 13th, married for 41yrs and this song is exactly how we lived it out.😢😢 I miss him dearly. I will be playing this song the day of his celebration of Life, Aug 31st. I LOVE listening to this song every chance I get throughout my busy life.
When I lost my wife this song got in my head in 2003 and just would not go away and here it is 2021 and I still could listen to it over and over...thanks AJ !
My son had a montage of our family photos done with this song as the sound track. The photos span the many years of my marriage and family life. Every time I view it I cry as I am now a widower looking back at my young self and my dear late wife. This song fits like a glove to that simple theme of family life which is filled with joy and with pain and sadness. Thank you Alan Jackson for writing this poignant and timeless song.
Quando perdemos as pessoas mais importantes das nossas vidas é quando aprendemos a valorizar pequenas coisas, pequenos gestos. Lembro-me e sinto muita saudade de poder pescar com o meu tio/pai de coração. Saudades dos meus avós, saudades dos tempos antigos, que com fé em Deus reviverei um dia na eternidade! Saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷
I love his voice, his kindness. He's a true person. Hard to find. I've been writing songs because of his love for music and I am a very quiet lady but when I write it's a story of life. Music is like writing a book. It's like a secret. And maybe one day it's a surprise.
I get a huge case of the "warm fuzzies" every time I hear this song. The lyrics are a National Treasure. The mandolin just takes it over the top...thank you Alan and band

I love this song, I can literally see my past life pass in front of me with every verse. When you have made a life with someone all the ups and downs the world brings , planning for the future for all of it to end and still stay friends ,the past keeps coming back . Country love songs are the best.
