I remember when i was 23 and my father was in his Workshop in the basement, quiet and listen to this great song. 3 Years later he die because of cancer and at his funeral we play this song live in the church. Now, 3 years later, im 29 and im sitting here, in his workshop in the basement, without him and with tears in my face and listen to this great song.
I miss my dad too. But they are near my daughter fell from the stairs when she was 4 luckily nothing bad happened. Years later she told me "mom Granpa saved me when I fell from the stairs, he put his back to protect me from getting hurt I saw him I swear! But he disappeared right after that" So believe me you are not alone when you most need him he is near you.
The drama "It's ok, that's love" made me fell inlove with this song. It's now quarantine period and i just watched "skycastle". That drama made me missed this. This makes me cry everytime i listen to it and idk why.
Yesterday I was ten and now i'm twenty two years old. Tomorrow i'll wake up and i'll be fourty so until that time I don't want to hold back and do things by half measures. Anxiety, shyness, anger, depression... It's all such a waste of the short time we have. The world has been here a long time before I got here and will be here long after I die. This is my one opportunity to live and not just exist.
In this song there's something magic. Everytime i hear it i just think about my life and how fast is running. Our life is amazing. Thanks Boyhood, thanks Linklater.
theultimateuploader why do you feel weird? Antonio feels exactly the way i feel and many others. this movie reminds us all of our own lives and how precious the years are that have flown past so fast, years that wont be relived. whats weird about this feeling????/

If you liked this movie, I recommend "Dazed and Confused". It's by the same director and it's more of a comedy. It's literally only about teens on the first day of summer vacation, but it's so good.
Me too, I heard this song in “Addicted” the banned Cdrama, (such a great shame this happened as this was such a wonderful drama), and the same song was in “Its Okay, That’s Love. KDrama. Both superbly acted dramas. The song bring back memories of scenes so easily...
Boyhood is such a wonderful, cathartic and bittersweet masterpiece, especially towards the end. I only saw it just now and it's already one of my favorites off all time.
Still one of my favorite songs ever! One of those rare songs that evokes so many different emotions all at once! How can I be happy and sad at the same time! Was just sitting outside just humming this and had to listen again
сумассшедших разного рода людей очень много.даже те которые несут много добра не понимают что они т людей,так как те привфыкают к добру и не видят что их окружают те у кторых нет ничего свяятого и ничего доброго.спросили бы и рассказали правд у матери;что бы они услышали,но они также скрывают свою жизнь и уже не замечают что
I have to pause and listen every time I hear this beautiful music. Keep listening...emotional, yes, but a GOOD EMOTION and memory of the awesome movie.
Boyhood is a masterpiece and a classic. Oscars literally mean nothing right now. Thank you Richard, thank you Ellar, thank you Ethan and thank you Patricia!
Sarah Ashley Boyhood was a good movie, yes. I wouldn't have opposed it winning over Birdman, but I don't think Boyhood was robbed. Birdman was a great movie, too, and Whiplash was probably even better than the both of them and that was like the black sheep of the Oscars. Just because they filmed it over 12 years doesn't make it a better movie. I think a lot of people's judgment gets clouded by this fact. I love Ethan Hawke and Richard Linklater is a great filmmaker, but don't make it out to be more than what it is.
Eddie Adams Birdman wasn't all that if you ask me, so hyped and butthurt by superhero movies' success over the years and only good thing in Whiplash was J.K's performance, it was full of cliches, in the end overrated. ''Just because they filmed it over 12 years doesn't make it a better movie. I think a lot of people's judgment gets clouded by this fact.'' this sentence of yours is pretty ironic because everyone who didn't like the movie can only come up with that logic and that logic only.Sentences like just because they filmed over 12 years bla bla bla. People who love this movie on the other hand rarely said that they love this movie because it took 12 years to film it. We, well let me talk for myself, I don't love the movie just because of that. I love this movie because it touched my heart, it was unique,emotional, full of life and in the end became one of the movies that I have a special place in my heart. I'm not saying everyone has to love this movie and agree what I have to say. But I truly believe that, comparing Birdman and Boyhood, Academy was wrong that night.
We sang this song at a summer camp, it has been the only time I have felt completely happy in years, it was only one week long and I can't describe how loved I felt there, now I'm at my room crying because it's over and I have to wait one whole year to see all that people again, Zach, Ana, Helena, Laura, Nayra, Lydia, Blanca Irene, if you are reading this, I miss you so much.
I was 12 when I heard first time this song. Now I'm 17. Everything has changed. I don't know what to do in my life. I don't know how to care about my relationships. I don't know how to be a good human. I was never wondering that beeing at teenager age can be that hard. This song is giving me perciption for sit and think about myself. About my future, about my friends, family, things that mean a lot in my life. And now, after 5 yeras since my first time with this song, I feel that I schould change something. Because my life is only for me. Not for anybody else. I can make happy somebody, but I schould care about my happines. I want to be good human. I want to change my life and somebody's else life.
This song and the movie are so powerful to me because of how much I can relate to it all. My father stormed out on my family and I needed to move away, my mom remarried to a man who was almost just as bad as my real father. Life at school was real hard to cope with and any friends I had were not around long enough to even put a name on them today. Fell in love with a beautiful girl in my first year of high school (guess we can argue it wasn't really love..) and then she was seen with another guy doing unmentionable things that still disgust me even now. When graduating all I had was my family to congratulate me on my accomplishments and soon after I was moving out to college where I am today on my third year. Things have suddenly changed so much over these years though and I find myself happier then I've been in a very long time. Anyways back on track I absolutely love boyhood and this song. Anytime I hear one or the other I get a little emotional because I too know life is hard
This movie made me realize how fast your life passes and I just realized that it's been a year since I firstly saw the movie... And yeah I'm crying rn...
I started a new work around a month ago, and I've dealt with the most stress and anxiety in my life in just 1 1/2 month than my whole life. I went to this song because it brought me nostalgia, a place where I feel happy, where there are no orders, goals, kpis and whatever corporate BS. Reminiscing of some good times during my childhood, teenage days, when my bro was still around, who passed away 4 years ago. Life feels good and simple for at least 3:10 minutes.
My interpretation of the song: The song talks about simply wanting a mundane life and having struggles every human being goes through instead of having big dreams like society expects. But it means so much more than that. He wrote this song with this meaning, but pursues a career of the polar opposite. He's a singer and we all know how difficult it is to succeed in the vast field of music. Big dreams come, not only with hope, but with frustration, doubt, and sadness. Sometimes the negatives get the best of us. I think he wrote this song while feeling frustrated with how his career was going. So he wrote this song as if to say, "You know what, I just want a normal life. I fucking give up." He sings "let me go" to all the people who were pushing him to keep going even though he felt like he was losing hope. That's why the song sounds so tired and sad. Because even though he's singing these words, he doesn't mean them. He just feels tired of fighting so hard. And he feels tired of carrying the weight of people's expectations. If he really meant what he was singing, it'd have a rebellious tone instead of a sad one. He felt like he was giving up on his dream. Ironically enough, his dream came true after this song. He and his fellow band members became successful. Maybe that shows that even when you feel like you're at your lowest low, there's always hope, and you should never lose sight of that. This song was such a big hit because pretty much anyone can relate to what he's feeling when he writes this song. Everyone has expectations surrounding them and everyone has had a moment where they just felt like giving up. In the music video they portray a man that feels that way too, but without a happy ending. Even though he truly loves bull-riding, his family has expectations of him to be more than just a bull rider. But he wants to prove to them that he can succeed with his dream. When he fails to fulfill those expectations, they leave him. In the end, they show him sitting all alone looking at pictures of himself when he was young and full of hope. He feels sad that he seems to have lost that hope and failed to fulfill his dream. And that's where the music video ends because, unlike the band, not many people get to have a happy ending.
Too much thinking... It could be or not.. we make songs whatever we want.. i could write a review explaining the video, the band or the song in the opposite way.
Perfectly said. And thanks once again to the kind hearted & amazing people of Belgium, Flanders & Austria for recognizing & appreciating this song and so beginning this song & this bands' rise to fame. Pax
I watched "t's okay it's love " in 2018 like 4 yrs ago and still when I listen to this song, a huge vulnerability jumps out of my heart. It makes me so emotional I don't know how to feel...This is really powerful!!!!!!
It's so cool how people all over the world can relate to this movie, from every country, different langages, religions, traditions and even mentality. No matter how do u live and no matter how your situation is, you'll relate to thus movie.
I wish the series Addicted would have been completed.. These song brings back a lot of memories when in the ep 15 this beautiful 💫💗 masterpiece was played..I fell in love with it...
I have just watched Addicted too, a lovely Drama ,very touched by this song, and also when I heard this song played in the The KDrama,”Its okay,That’s Love” such a haunting song, it brings back the memories in these dramas so well! Both acted brilliantly!
I can't imagine what it must feel like to not have a father you grow up with. I'm just used to seeing this amazing father who loves my mother so much that I look at his minor flaws. Like when he comes back from work after a long day of overtimes and stresses, he doesn't come by my room to say hi, that hurts my ego. Or when he becomes overprotective and asks me to make multiple contingency plans for something that is important, I'll get annoyed instead of understanding that he's been through so much that he knows. He just knows. He had a pretty bad childhood and I can see it leaking out sometimes, the grief and the sadness but he's just got us on his shoulders and he's always been the manly guy for us, so he doesn't show it. He'll tell the bad stories while keeping a straight face or a smiling one but you can see through his watered eyes what he's holding down there. I'm just so grateful Papa, you gave me the childhood you could only wish for in your wildest dreams and I don't think I could say it out loud, but I really love you. I wish you get everything you want out your life.
Lyrics : Let me go I don't wanna be your hero I don't wanna be a big man Just wanna fight with everyone else Your masquerade I don't wanna be a part of your parade Everyone deserves a chance to Walk with everyone else While holding down A job to keep my girl around And maybe buy me some new strings And her and I out on the weekends And we can whisper things Secrets from our American dreams Baby needs some protection But I'm a kid like everyone else So let me go I don't wanna be your hero I don't wanna be a big man I Just wanna fight like everyone else Ooooohh So let me go I don't wanna be your hero I don't wanna be a big man I Just wanna fight with everyone else Your masquerade I don't wanna be a part of your parade Everyone deserves a chance to Walk with everyone else .
I watched Boyhood movie with my kids today on Father's day 2023. Great movie. Great story telling. Hits home. Captures the beauty, pleasure, pain, and hardships of life of broken homes from perspective of kids and parents. Resonated with me, and my kids said it felt like they watched their own lives. This music at the end of the movie is perfect.
Don't you hate it when your phone autocorrects when you mean to type "bad" and it types out "good." Clearly this happened with your comment. I know, right! Beautiful song and bad movie
+korlu01 Don't you hate it when your phone autocorrects when you mean to type "I agree! Truly a beautiful song and good movie," and it types out "Don't you hate it when your phone autocorrects when you mean to type 'bad' and it types out 'good.' Clearly this happened with your comment. I know, right! Beautiful song and bad movie."
The series entitled ADDICTED brought me here. It’s 2021 and I’m still waiting for Season 2 with the same actors play the roles. I really fell in love on the series and this song brings back all the memories about that series. 😭
I've been a passive person my whole life, and I regret every single non-memory I have. I wish I did more. I'm 24-years old, and I feel like everything went by so quick. Since the pandemic has everybody locked up, I've been contemplating more about my life. Maybe since I can't create more memories (go out/live), my brain's being forced to retrace the memories I do have. One day, when everything blows by, I'll be ready to truly live my life
I m 24 too(will be 25 in 2mons) and really till 15 I was doing good but after that I became lazy, sad,depressed, anxious always living in my mind, my world with no action at all.Apart from average academics I have no hobbies, no extra curriculars,I was always dreaming to get somewhere but I was passive to let life pass by and to let it take me there.I feel I have never lived my youth,youth is the most beautiful thing but I never did things that young people should do.I was a coward,a loser I would wish things to happen and when they didn't I used to get sad and depressed like it's end of the world.I have spent past 4years crying over spilled milk like people do in their 60's or 70's having regrets.Instead if I had worked like young people I would had atleast achieved half of the things.Few more years to 30 and I don't want to live like that,whatever I do it doesn't matter I just want to live in the moment,I want to be happy no matter what,I m so damn tired of crying and stuff over nothing.It's so scary to just exist,I want to feel young and rock on life,not to reach somewhere ,not to become someone or something or not to achieve some goals but live in the now and here.I guess when we have fun and live in the moment,be grateful for the present state,success and goals they all will just come as a byproduct and even if they won't it doesn't matter.
As long as you play fair and square throughout your journey in life ---towards others and most importantly, towards yourself. You'll be well. --coming from me who at once had been at the peak but got drunk with the demands of everything that surrounded me. I hope you'll find the "Light" that will guide you. Once you've found it, you'll never get lost.
Your life is just beginning. I'm 51 and my wife's just left me stranded in the middle of a pandemic in a new country after 18 years together. Enjoy. You're in your prime...
Joesph you really do have multiple huge phases of your live still ahead of you. At 24 I probably won’t have been able to predict all the good (and challenging) things I’ve experienced over the last 16 years. At age 40 things make more sense to me. On my bad days I remind myself how quickly and profoundly life can change. I encourage you to engage in self-reflection and make (loose) plans for your future. Be focused, intentionally and flexible. Above all else be kind to yourself and travel. Travel around your community, your country, the world, talk to different people and listen. You got this!
Hello, I assume you are also an exo-l. I heard this song for the first time when I watched IOTL and I got so emotional. I searched for this song in 2022 though and I am here back after 2 years.
@@soobae__ kyungsoo's acting here was perfection but the drama itself is a masterpiece and the song choices made it even better that's is why we are back here. To heal ourselves, maybe?
I'm a therapist and once, my client and me built a whole session over Boyhood and its magnificent reflections on life, change and decisions. It was beautiful.
@@adriannicolae7454 I was just kiddin', to be honest the original post just cut me deep in the feels and I jumped immediately to humour as a tactic of deflection. Just ask Josue' he knows all about this psychological stuff.
This song has a certain nostalgia: as if you really grew up listening to it. Or it is some kind of background score in the fast rewind to your childhood. Best coming-of-age song from the best coming-of-age film Boyhood!
Exactly. I love this song but its kind of hard listening to it since it feels so nostalgic to me, especially since it came out this summer, right after I graduated high school.
@@arjuniest7308 To anyone that loved Boyhood. You HAVE to see the Before trilogy. It's made by the guy that made Boyhood, and the actor that played the dad plays one of two main roles.
Nicole, the girl he meets at the end was the same girl that wrote him that 'I think you hair looks kewl' note during class when his step father haves him by bald.
This song reminds me of my cousin brother who is no more with us. This song is about him. The rebel he was. He didn't want to grow up, just wanted to fight. Good memories kiddo. Miss you forever.
This song and the series "Addicted"😭 feeling nostalgic . Watched the series back to back from 2017 and totally felt in love with this song which is now one of my favorite songs till today 😭❤
me too and I don't understand why they didn't do season 2 at the end it shows that Bai Luo Yin's ex is coming back I want to know the end of this beautiful love story between the two guys
One of the most beautiful songs I´ve ever heard. Simple as a drop of water... speaking us about the lost world that I miss so bad... An impressive human touch, an ode to the simpliest things 💙
This movie reminded me of my childhood ,especially when they showed the boy's in their teenage years , when they were in a building drinking and cussing and breaking board's , guy's will understand what i'm talking about , what guy when we were teenager's didn't get together and lie drink make fun of each other , without getting mad at one another ! just goofing off !!! I didn't realize how much I missed those day's !!!!!!!! I was born in 1960, and after watching that scene , I realized that our boyhoods haven't changed ! boy those were truly the good ole day's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
George A. Well said ! I really don't think I would change anything ! I retired a Lt. Colonel from the Army , and if anything changed I would have never been there.
+Greg Rinchich I learned where to put apostrophes. Why do you put an apostrophe in ' 'boy's ' but not ' years'? ' Teenager's ' but not ' boyhoods'? Just curious..
+Cody Redman Why dont you just calm down and let Mr Rinchich respond if he so desires. No need for you to get involved, speaking of not having better things to do.
I've never felt like I felt after watching this movie, such a masterpiece. Finding and listening to this song afterwards makes it even better :) Thank you to everyone involved in making this.
this song makes me think about my last years in high school. i’m a senior and it sucks that i’m missing out on my last year bc of the coronavirus. i was so looking forward to graduation and now it sucks that i’ll never know what it’ll feel like to walk across that stage.
Honey, you did the hard work to get to this point. Walking across the stage is not the highlight. There is so much more than the "pomp and circumstance". That's just a ritual. Life is more than just a ritual, and you can make it richer. Love, from a mom of two boys who can't even remember their high school graduations. xxx
Don't sweat it dude. I walked the stage at my high school graduation. And then i ended up walking across the stage three more times in college. I can't remember anything about those particular moments. But I DO remember what happened in between. I remember the hard work I put in to get there. More importantly, I remember the people I met along the way. You got your whole life ahead of you bud. Life is too short to waste time on regrets! ✌
5 years of hardwork for an architecture degree and we didnt even have an online graduation ceremony, not even good-bye by the staff. Everything is pure ritualistic...not from the heart.
I saw the scene in the film, and it hit me hard that "Oh boy, that's gonna be me at the end of this year, going off to university." Little Mason grew up alright, didn't he guys? If he could, we could too.
This is one of those songs that no matter how many times I hear it, I love it all over again. It has become my favorite song of all time. It s not the words because I don't truly understand what its about other than a love story. It 's the music, that gets me every time. The crescendo towards the end is just so magical, it's a work of art.
Everything was just too fast, I was 13 and now I'm 22 Time flies too fast for me, I don't really wanna be a big man There are too many responsibilities and things about money, but this is the reality.....
I think of my childhood and loved it, but as i become an adult i realized how many things i would of done differently. Lucky for me, I have 2 amazing kids who I try to give experiences i never had. I know they too will aspire to do the same for their kids :-) Life is amazing, enjoy it!
Some of the reasons I loved the movie are: The technical stuff, great cinematography, the state of Texas as a character, and not just a backdrop. the vision of Linkletter,the acting. The movie was more then just the history of the USA for a certain period, it was a good example of fiction can give us a better picture of the truth of a situation, then a documentary, or a history lesson. I got scared realizing how similar I am to the family, being just a couple of paychecks away from poverty. The different forms abuse took, for the mother, for Mason. The poor choices we make, why we make them, and how they effect us and those around us. Ethan Hawks coming to maturity, and the question if Patricia Arquette and the whole family wouldn't have been much better off, if she only had a little more patience. Lots of other insights and profundities. Any other thoughts? Am I just full of shit? Anyway I really liked the movie.
You're not full of shit, that pretty sums up what I felt about the movie. Richard Linklater's vision with this movie, and the Before-trilogy for that matter, is quite staggering. He's such an amazing, humanist filmmaker.
You shouldn't ask am i full of shit? Because film is a personal experience and if that's how you view it then great for you. Specially on youtube where everyone can come and tell you "you're fucking wrong and stupid"
Ted Kahn Same here. I loved it because it's an extraordinary film about ordinary things that happen to ordinary people. It was an unpretentious, down-to-earth, realistic movie about life.
Hasan Tawab What do you mean by unpretentious? Because mostly what average audiences call "pretentious" it's not really at all. Just avoid that word because I bet you would call "pretentious" a film that isn't at all.
Enrique Godinez That's an interesting question. What I mean by "unpretentious" is that the film does not try to overreach its message, and does not try to impose any inherent moral perspective, or assume anything from the viewer. In other words, it is a simple and wholesome movie about family and love. A lot of the films that get screened at film festivals, I'd label "pretentious". You know, the ones that hyper-elite left-wing pseudo-academic substance-motivated intelligentsia try to pass off as "entertainment". I'm glad this is an exception.
Its crazy how some artists can actually have an impact on your life. THANKS Familyoftheyear for this beautiful song. I am gonna treasure this song forever for the rest of my life. ♥♥♥
When I watched this movie, I felt completely identified. The three most important stages of our lives are reflected there. Childhood is the most golden and incredible.
I cry every time I hear this song as well. It reminds me so much of my life growing up and going through its various milestones. Although I am forty-five years old now, I still remember much of the experiences that the characters of "Boyhood" go through. Both of my parents are now deceased and it brings back memories of them. It brings back memories of my first girlfriend. It brings back memories of life in much simpler time; once in which life at least seemed to make sense. In my flesh, I feel like life has become little more than a dash between my year of birth and my year of death. In the spirit through Christ Jesus, I know that I have hope and that as tough as this life may be or become, this life is not it. Better things are truly around the corner!
This film could quite possibly be one of the best movies ever created. Brilliantly made! This song definitely captures the theme of Boyhood really well!
i was seventeen when i watch this movie for the first time. i felt so touched about the time in ours lives. the experiences that we have in life, the good and bad moments. life being life. i’m in tears right now, this song makes me feel belong in life and with body, myself. i’m 26 know.
boyhood is such a masterpiece and this song brings a kind of nostalgic connection through the film... comes to a reality of adulthood and its related problems
@@rahmaasls15 i cant wait for final eps of sky castle😭😭 Oemjiii thats true, i will rerun watching thats drama, i miss kyungsoo and jo in sung ahjussi from that dramaaaaa
This song doesn`t remind me of this film at all. Instead,it reminds me of `It`s Okay,That`s Love` because it so perfectly encapsulates the meaning and core message behind the whole show. I cannot listen to this song without being reminded of Jang Jae Yeol,the male protagonist,running down the street at night,sweaty,almost feverish,having the time of his life whilst at the same time going through one of the worst breakdowns of the entire show. It`s my favorite series and nothing can compare,no matter how much time has passed. A beautiful song indeed!
The song fits the movie just so perfectly that you can never hold back tears when you listen to it. Like you are going through your past moments again, and you don't even want it to ends to go back to reality.
When my life is f***ed up, i always came here.. Nothing change, but makes me think twice that this is life, you should face it, until it already end. Make changes, at least to yourself. Smile. You deserved to be here. You're not alone guys 🙂
I am 19 now and confused as hell. I smile or at least try to smile. I don't know what I am going to do tomorrow but whatever I do, I hope I do it the best way. I need a good night sleep and someone to pat me on the back saying you can do it. Goodnight !
Welcome to your generation. I don't mean that derogatory, it sucks. It doesn't have to be so hard. Ever heard the song "Life on Earth" by Snow Patrol. Also, don't "love yourself more than anyone." That's terrible advice. That way of thinking is why the world is as cold as it is.
RREDDWARFF okay obviously I didn’t mean to cut everybody out and just focus on you, their are lots of people who are born in unfortunate situations where they don’t have anyone. How are you gonna tell someone like that, don’t worry someone out there loves you. You just can’t. It leaves them waiting for something to come. And so back to what I said, it’s very important to love yourself more than anyone, because it is a very scary and lonely world out there. But that doesn’t mean you can’t be the one to spread some kindness and love.
Same, bro I am a 19 years old guy which dont know what to do tomorrow. I was almost to be gone but I don't know why I'm still here. Hi from other country, man, girl, whatever, keep going. Peace out
I don’t know what it is about this song, but it’s the only song I’ve ever played again and again for hours and felt so deeply about. I can’t explain it…
