Can’t believe this guy didn’t end up going big. I’ve watched all his performances tons of times. One of the rawest talents I ever saw on these reality shows. Guess he just didn’t end up with the right support around him.
he beat his addiction and cleaned himself up, this song would've earned him some nice money for his family too. that's the real victory. God looked out for him in a massive way
I still remember watching Chris's audition. And the times, when this song came out. Still listening it in 2022 ⭐. Actually on repeat for the last few days 💙
I remember the first time I listened to this song back in 2013 soon as I heard it I cried for years because I was a drunk and a drug addict and I couldn’t quit not even for my family. It was the hardest shit I’ve ever went through and for the next 6 years I struggled to get clean. Now here I am in 2019 clean and sober being myself again. I’m happy than a mf now
Jakob D. Thanks for checking in man yes everything is going good I’ll be clean 5 months on the 22nd of December. Everything in my life is slowly getting put back together. Thanks brother
@@recoveryandbeyond5575 thats awesome bro, something crazy to add on to that is that day will be my 1 year anniversary for being sober from smoking weed. Proud of you man. Just stay on the right path, we got this.
I did pain pills and heroin for years im 26 now i been clean since 5/13/08...Got my life back and my family back keep it up Chris...U got talent...Your not alone in the fight...One day at a time or sometimes one minute at a time...
you should always stay clean. its not healthy for you. ik my brother is into drugs. im 14 and its really hard seeing him like that. seeing him suffer. its just not a good thing to do.
john frank I,ve been in NA since 2008 and I see what your doing all the time people stop the hard stuff and still drink and smoke weed...I've never seen it end well for those people...If u stopped the hard stuff the drinking and smoking should be easy to stop...So I suggest that you stop it all...I haven't even has a sip of beer since 2008 and my bodies healthy and I feel great...You don't need any of that shit just give it up...
Autumn Lynn I know doing drugs is not healthy for you...All drug addicts know that its bad...But when your using drugs that's all you care about...When I was using I didn't even care about my family the only thing I cared about was a little blue bag...All you can do is be there for your brother and when the times right he'll make the decision to get clean on his own...I know it's hard seeing someone you love go down that dark path but only he can get himself clean no one else can get him clean...
***** You are right to an extent, but there are always exceptions you know. e.g: Little Talks, Clarity, Pumped up Kicks, La La La, Somebody that I used to Know, It's Time & Demons, etc etc just to name some really popular ones that were written by the artists in the vevo name.
Azzhole1337 I totally agree with you!! He needs to stick to songs that relate to him. "Trouble" didn't represent who Chris Renee is.....seemed Sleezy to me.
12 years ago i was waching Chris's performance, admire him and didn't even think about quitting. It's been allmost 3 weeks now, thank you God! Beetter late than never.
I dont care if hes on drugs or on the streets whenever i hear this song it gives me hope becuase i was always on the sreets runin with the homies or sleeping at the park or strugglin to find my next meal i used to do drugs i did it to survive if u ever been out in the streets u know what i mean but i straighten up now i work and have a place you guys dont know anything about his struggles i feel like i can relate to his background story but im just tryin to say love life ,live it to the fullest, and be grateful to what you have becuase you never know what will happen tomorrow stay positive and laugh ur problems away xp
Whoever is doubting what he says needs to think about it because how do u know what he's been through. Maybe whoever is doubting this guy should go live on the streets for a month and see what it is like. If the owner of this comment sees this I give u full respect.
So glad he didn't win X-Factor, he's not locked in a dead end contract. Good in you man. You deserve all that's around. Live it up with your young homie
well you do realize LA reid signed him with the same label that the winner got right? When they announced the winner, LA whispered that he was signing Chris in his hear, he said "really" with a big smile and then the camera angel cut to something else
i'm off the drink 5 years in may this year i'm off the drugs since a year this month and believe me i would NEVER go back to that bad road i got help that i deserved and i finally stopped them for myself and for my family and i would like to thank them for who i am today which is the care team for helping me to stay off the drink and drugs and my family too thank you everyone for making me into a better person and chris rene you have created such a beautiful touching song it brings happiness in me to listen to that song thank you chris we love you from ireland god bless you and your family and friends

I am now 10 months clean from self harm and I sing this song so much now, this song gives me hope and makes me feel proud and strong :) God bless you Chris :)
It’s October, 2020- still 🎧. This song always stop me when my mind starts to think negativity. Thanks bro Chris for writing this beautiful song. It’s never too late to start a new life.Peace ✌️
It's 2020 and I've been listening to this song since it first came out. I really hope this man right here is still doing good in life and is succeeding. Please try and find time to make more music. This is amazing. I love you
Being sober for three days and feel like the world is against me. I remember this song and I'm listening to this right now, hoping I'll fight off my alcoholic addiction. Its been tough these past days but God will never leave me. This song will be my inspiration theme to live the ways of Sobriety life. Thanks Chris Rene.

Its 2020, 7th December and still listening, its my birthday again, and my son too (he just turn 1) ....
From the first moment I heard this I knew it would be my life anthem. Here I am 6 years sober today. Thank you for your strength and bravery, you've opened millions of eyes.
Garfunkle567 no where near as much as you think he had like 5,000-7,500 views after his stupid video and 2. just because he has a girlfriend doesn't mean he isnt a virgin.
SO MUCH NOSTALGIAAAA!!! X Factor 2011 was the best. It had the best contestants, the best judges, and the best overall atmosphere, it just brings so many memories. ❤
Man this song has helped me so much! I watched this when I was 12 years old into drugs up until I was 17 I’m finally doing life right, life’s to short gotta live it long!!!!
Im a 18 year old teen from Shelton ct I've been dating this girl for 5 years..long time I know . But just yesterday she broke up with me for another guy .. I was heartbroken I thought we gonna go on forever but I was wrong clearly . But this song makes me get over her In a real strange way it makes me realize that there's more in this world and I'll find someone else .. Thankyou Chris rene
My cousin shared this a few weeks before taking his life, saying life is too short. I miss him so very much. He was such an amazing person and did so much good for others. We just didn't see how much pain he was in, I wish I could go back and help him. Support him the way he always did me.
amazing hope be successful now doesnt turn him back into those days.. he will defe make it far. everything happens for a reason and I think he found his reason!
Holy shit teenage me was bumpin this, havent heard this song in 10 years... youtube recommending it to me while my first month passed in new country 1000km+ from home, life is strange
this song has stuck with me since x factor. i've had so many days where i've listened to it so many times in a row. reminds me we're all the same in some ways & we're all still human.
Open up my mind with these spoken words Let this music heal like an overture She's the only one, one, one, yeah, yeah And so I roll with her, ooh That's how it's supposed to be Living life with loved ones close to me Shh, ah, this is the remedy And I got the recipe, I don't need no Hennessy Yeah, it's been nine months now Haven't had a drink and I'm starting to see clear now I'm putting all my fears down I can hear the cheers now Seeing peace signs when I look around Hey, young homie what you trippin' on Looking at life, like how did I get it wrong Life's too short, gotta live it long To my brothers and sisters, when will we get along Hey, young homie what you trippin' on Looking at life, like how did I get it wrong Life's too short, gotta live it long To my…
Deep skies by Jaytekz came on and a part of it reminded me of this song. " ahhh aye ayee" is all I could remember.. I spent about 10 mins trynna find this again. Definitely one of the best auditions I ever seen, the song hits a different nerve and I'll remember this song for the rest of my life ❤❤❤
Found this song years later. Still hold a great message. I hope Chris is doing good and took the most out of this. The best part was when he did it live on X factor no one gave him a chance before he started singing and then they started going crazy. very moving. Again I hope Chris is doing well
I put in a playlist today to workout and this song came on. I remembered seeing his audition and thinking how talented he is I pray all is well. God bless you Chris.
