Five for Fighting - Superman (It's Not Easy) 

I’m listening to Five For Fighting Superman It’s Not Easy late May 2024 1:12

Sorry for your loss, stay strong 💪🏻

Well he has good taste! Sorry he’s gone. You may see him again. You never KNOW……………………………..

@@davidlyleson1111 that's what I believe, thank you

@@warrenfernandes1006 thank you Warren. I miss our talks every day.

May God Heal you in Jesusname🙏

Im so sorry. May God Bless you

Make everything memorable...n just fight.

You will overcome 💛💙💜💚❤ You will heal completely 🌻🌻🌻🌻

thephilosopherslegacy here in the Philippines, they tagged it as the song of gay men. Like ‘its not easy to be me’

@@leagueofwhatever987 woah really?! We just call it the Superman song in my family and I always thought it was about dads. Never heard it referenced as a song for gay men despite being born and still residing/living in the Philippines. Hahaha oh pang-jamming lang namin sa school 'to noon kasama ng "Torete", " Passenger's Seat" at "Iris"

I'm more than a bird, I'm more than a plane, I'm more than some pretty face beside the train... In more than a man in a funny red suit... About a home I'll never see... and you don't think it's a superman song? 😃

@@leagueofwhatever987 first time I've heard of it. Is it really tho?

@@leagueofwhatever987 i am a Filipino and i can say that you're wrong. The lyrics is very clear.

I lost my dad October 14th, 2022. I hope you're doing okay, and wherever you are now you're happy and safe, and he's proud of you, even if you believe with all your heart that he isn't. Music has a way of healing and of telling us things we need to hear the most, from exactly who we needed to tell us.

My dad too. He always said, "I'm no superman." I sang this in his honor once I could get through it without crying.

❤

❤

I lost my dad too, it was June 25th, 2022. After I graduated middle school, before he passed away, he posted photos on his Instagram and said this "My little man is graduating today. All grown up, honor student. Can't be more blessed than this. I am confident you will do well in your journey becoming a man. I will always be with you and love you. My eyes through yours, Son becomes the father and the father becomes the sun." One of his favorite lines from the Superman movies. I'll always love him, and I wish you lots of luck

Well said.

The Man of Steel - lifes great tragic irony - but Christopher and Dana were Superheroes afterall...

yes, love is strong and dying of a broken heart is a real scientifically proven death - in a way the heart is like our emotional brain and this song tugs at the heart strings. When superman soared on the screen my heart swelled with joy, even as it does with simple things like watching spring leaves unfold on the tree outside the window or playing music with others. The fear and anger in the world cannot quench the love in the human heart.

1 year ago you posted this. I am now tearing up, that's my fave portrayl of supes😢

Very true

I agree 💯 I feel like dying sometimes I think I'm already dead inside

thats me

I think that is so called depression.. only therapist can help... if it worsen, please find one... everything will eventually be alright as long as you find the right person to talk to... :)

that's exactly what i'm currently going thru. sometimes, just sometimes the struggling gets alittle too overbearing that the shoulders feel alittle weak to hold up.

🙏🙏🙏❣ My Dad too. He's 90. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤

My grandmother had it for 15 years until she passed last year. I visited every week and witnessed the departure of her faculties. Be strong for your dad, brother. He still needs you.

I believe that I, myself are quite possibly it the early stages of this malady at 47yo. In my youth, high school, and unversity years, I had NO trouble spelling complex words, actually winning regional and placing in state spelling bees. On some really bad days, you guys reading this would think me to be typing some foreign language. If not some form of dimentia, I'm thinking possibly cte brought on from years of combat sports. I've not told anyone around me this, for fear of changing the way they see me....don't know, guys.... suggestion?

I'm praying for him! 🙏 ❤

@@dullahan7677 If it's CTE you're in a bad place and gonna have to figure some major stuff out, but if it's early onset Alzheimer's or dementia, you should check out some of the new research they've been doing linking bacterial infections to those two. Could always just be the natural effects of getting old and pushing the envelope with your body too bro.

I don't know you and neither do you As a stranger I would only say is,Just STAY STRONG 💪 and everything will be alright 👍🏻

@nabamnitin8715 thank you so much

@cappycappy3322 thank you

Women are not shit man. Look for something better.

I'm so sorry she couldn't be your rock when you needed her. Even rocks need support, otherwise they'll fall into the ocean to sink.

You got this!

That sounds amazing

What a wonderful memory ❤️

What a vivid picture. Amazing.

So sweet ❤️

@Rachel McMurray how old is this song? I didn’t think it was that old, but when you get old as me, time flies faster, a million times faster than when you’re young. And it’s SO HARD! I’d love to be young again, if just for a few days.

I will say a prayer. I had a similar issue with alcohol. Have her try reishi it helps with raising ones consciousness.

@@user-dc4kq8vl4e Thank you!

I've been there. There's plenty of new medications out there now that can get her off the dope without going through withdrawals. Would she consider a methadone clinic to start with? I went from methadone to Suboxone, and that worked for me. Cold turkey withdrawals were too painful and long lasting. Try to get her on a program. You both have my prayers.

I’m so sorry. It’s so hard on the parents. Thinking of you 🙏🤗

John Volken Academy. Check to see if they will take her. 100% success when other things fail. My son on heroin never relapsed.

Could you download All I Know? Please? 😢🥺🙏💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

Thank u

And to you too kind sir. This is a great song and one that brings tears to my eyes when I listen to it.

I’m listening to Five For Fighting Superman (It’s Not Easy) late August 2023

It is !!!!

Just like the moon you don’t have to be whole to shine

you will emerge victorious after all that, my guy. 🖤

You will babe. Believe.

You can do it!

You can do it man...it's hard but it's worth it..I know 'cause I have been there.

John should have won a Grammy...

@@mvader7188 hhgb

Lo siento mucho por tu perdida

Sorry for you lost ,he is in a better place now,god bless you..!

RIP to your bro

You got a Cool brother.May God Bless Your brother's Soul

He is always with you.

@RECITE-GOD-PURIFY-ME-EACH-SECOND What are you trying to gain from this?

​@@Recite-God-Heal-Me-Loveno

its always been old, but it's timeless. as i said, it's a must

Never

Thank you.. i really need this right now.. thank you so much ❤️

Thank you so much. I needed to read that also. Thanks again.

Thank you so much friend, that means a lot

Thank you..

Thank you for this....Keep safe to us always...

This is what all good fathers want, now it is your responsibility to live like your dad taught you to. Remember that he wanted you to be better than him, do you know why I know it? Because that's exactly what I want for my kids, I want them to be better than me. Cheer buddy

Well said..thanks

O_o

@@jaclyn4808 I am loss for your sorry.

I'm so sorry for your loss.:(I know this pain will never go away,but it will fade with time.He's in heaven now.

Im so sorry for your loss

Is that how he died? Putting on a cape and trying to fly? Cause that could definitely lead to death, depending where he tried to take off from.

+asdfghyter I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that! xD

+asdfghyter they have a song (probably parody of this one) called Birdplane

EsmeraldMaster Yes, that's the one I was refering to.

+EsmeraldMaster It's a 60 song medley, not really a parody.

+Muse Nw Birdplane is a separate song to the 4 chords song, and it is a parody.

Well said... My grandparents emigrated from eastern Europe in 1918 during very difficult times. The Baltics under German, Nazi, Russian and Soviet control and to a lesser extent the Polish. Take your pick. Generational trauma. Now here I am living in a not perfect country but without physical fear. I will always be thankful for their sacrifice. They crossed the ocean.

Nah, it reminds us that he's more than a bird, he's more than a plane, he's a BIRDPLANE!!! A MOTHERFKN BIRDPLANE

Florencia Edgina Well summarized

What you wrote was so romantically beautiful.

Know what- when i get money im making a poster and putting this on it and of course ill give u credit

Natsu Dragneel oh wow thanks!

Florencia Edgina that was beautiful

❤

Hope everything is well ❤️

@@josephinemateo2553 in the coming 2021

😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

Thank you for the like and kind words. My father has another surgery coming up in a few days 💙

Good luck ❤ in your life ❤

😢😢

This actually the only Superman song that makes sense

I know how you feel

I'm with you dear. 🙂

So sorry to hear this 😢.

@@jeremyscott9180 but if were easy anybody could do it

Hope things get better for you friend. One day at a time, best as you can, whatever it may be, receive yourself with kindness... I believe you're healing 🙏

Story of my life...so strong

It's a painful truth often for people that end up giving up they ask why no one noticed but it's not usually that its that they were the strong one and they just stayed strong until they couldn't anymore : (

indeed

Are you okay?

@@white_lightning_0171 nah I have a crippling Lego addiction. And to this song.

Yeah. Old songs got deeper meaning than now.

Same :(

live

Always go back to the music of your past. It will always make your present look rosy!! Treasure your life and these people around you. Someday, you will look back and realize you made it!

@@PlatinumIrishrose well said. Thank you.

I remember my dad playing this all the time for me and my sister on the way to drop us off at the babysitters in the morning to catch the bus there while he went to work. He passed away last July. Thank God for music

Played this at my husbands funeral,one of the bravest men I had the privilege of loving 💔

"I miss 9/11"

This song and mad world always remind me of 911

LeeAnn King What happened to him? :( (Sorry just curious)

Duncan J. It's fine really, he was killed by my mother's (she isn't my mom anymore (legally)) boyfriend. They divorced a year before he died and she had cheated on him a lot and the man that killed my dad was one of her boyfriends. He was shot in the stomach and bled out. It's okay to talk about now, he died 5 years ago.

LeeAnn King Dang that's tragic. I'm sorry.

LeeAnn King sorry to hear that...............be strong my dear

its a amazing song and you a pretty and strong girl

He has an elegant grasp of poetry.

I think so .. these kind of music you need to save up in a playlist Bc in time you listen to many music and forget sometimes and than out of nowhere Like I was listening to random playlist and this came popping in my ear i was omg it’s been ages that i heard it on smallville ..if i am not mistaken Somehow it made me search another song David gray this year love ...its sound so sad but yet so beautiful

@@poisonivymathers Actually..."out of the blue" isn't always a bad thing. A song you haven't heard in years can come on & completely change your entire day. Lyrics from another song (google it). Ain't it funny how a melody Can bring back a memory Take you to another place & time Completely change your state of mind

@@scottpowell5605 Clint black?? I hope you don’t like country music...the absolute worst. No good songwriting there.

@@undergroundkingz7969 Can't say that I'd agree with you, but to each their own. Music appreciation is entirely subjective.

Hello, how are you doing it's nice meeting you here

Hi old timer? You have great taste in music. I hope you are well and enjoying life.

@@deloson hi , thank you kind person. Loving retirement, I hope you live a very long, happy, prosperous life🥰

Depression is really the silent killer

Wym?

Cause he was Superman🤧

So sad

Po;

Io;;;

👍

Thanks 4 the lyrics

thanks for the lyrics

2024: still and will forever be a masterpiece

you express yourself and the world so beautifully, but it does not fit with your moniker "the joker". It makes me suspicious of your words and deeds

@@chaseroberts3111 well, That’s just my RU-vid nickname I had it since like years. It’s like that old surname you don’t really know why you have it but you keep it because it’s nostalgic. I don’t see why you should find anything strange in my words, I’m being fully honest.

hey, we don't have identical experiences and I'm sure your issues are significantly different from mine. but I do understand going through the worst issues of your life, at least up to the point of life you're experiencing, and I wanted to say that as hard as it is, relief eventually comes. Even if the initial issue sticks around in your brain and makes it hard to truly move on, you can move onto a new chapter of your life and spend years working through your initial hangups. For me, it was leaving a toxic dependant friendship with my best friend because he began dating a girl I had just spent a year confiding in him about a crush I had on her. Is it high school shit? Sure. But it fucking hurt more than just about anything. I haven't had consistent friends in my life. The fact that someone seemingly used my feelings to blow his nose into before throwing them in the bin, that was huge. And I struggled with that for years. Today, I hang out with my coworkers. I understand that my kindness is a choice. There is a Rational reaction and an Emotional reaction, and sometimes they don't align and you have to pick one. The cheat code is that if you spend too much time trying to rationalise an emotional response, you're going to realise that despite your best efforts, your emotions win. Don't torture yourself over "facts over feelings" and a need to reconcile everything. Let yourself feel whatever you need to feel. Usually, even if it's ugly and dark, you'll understand what you need to do to move forward.

much love to your brother

My sincere condolences,take Care of u mom too

RIP Marvin

For we are all as shooting stars in the night sky. I pray that you noticed my light...

You made me cry Florence. love is the meaning of life and loss is the hardest thing of all. I suppose it’s now your turn to be superwoman

Well said

I knew I wasn't the only one thinking about it. As a dad myself I know the struggles we have to face to raise kids, specially now that there are so many ideologies that are not that good for them. thank God my wife is there and we can raise them to be a good man and a good woman

@@ErickCastrilloArroyo U are lucky, I have to do it alone. My ex-wife is a basket case.

​​@@davidstokar887I see what you say, my dad had to raise me and my sister after my so called mother abandoned us. I remember all his efforts to work and provide for us and spend time with us. You can do it my good man, one day you'll look back and see that all the struggles were not in vain, you'll see your kids all grown up and being good people and believe me you would smile and feel good

@@ErickCastrilloArroyo Yes and it is amazing how much discrimination we have to overcome just to be seen. I was a single Dad to my sons yet it was as if we didnt exist. The hatred by some women was suprising

Ugh u don’t know how bad I needed to hear this in this moment ❤ thank you

❤️

Congratulations,GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY.😀😃😄😁😆😅🤣🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓

that's was nostalgic. congratulations to your offsprings....

Congrats for your family. Time to pick up and leave communist California and move to the USA. You’ve done your sentence.

This song inspired me to make a song that is inspired by love. If you want to listen to it here is the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3Wo0zFPt_t0.html Thank you!

Deus abençoe sua família 🙏📿

aww so true💗

Slightly older actually (released in 2000), but the point stands. Mad feels.

Agreed. This song is absolutely amazing.

that is so feeels ;___;

Timliu92 yes

Maganda din collide.

Yoohoo musta

2010s ang vibe ko

Trye

True

Now we got garbage like Soulja Boy Snoop Dogg and pitbull. I miss the good old days where songs made you cry or pump you up for a movie not just lame cash grabs.

Chris Emiya cant agree more

Randall Raines back when music meant something more than drugs and sex.

Amen to that

@@sean66606 absolutely right.

K

Lol dont kill me

Eh okay!!!! Not sure what you mean by that. If that is a joke it is a tasteless one and very rude.

Good spirit, you can overcome it with such positivity

All right!

I prey to the most high you beat your cancer and have a beautiful family. Amen 🙏

I hope he does include this song as well. I also hope he makes Lex Luthor the President of the United States in his version of Superman, just like in “Superman/Batman: Public Enemy”.

I’m listening to Five For Fighting Superman (It’s Not Easy) late February 2023

Agreed

That’s because it’s fucking amazing

@@FIshfood500 it's truly timeless

@@ivanbrown7124 agreed

Hahaha

"He has dreams and admiration that he gave up for a greater cause" sounds like a good father to me.

Maybe it's your childhood

Same lol

I know what you mean. My kids had these songs on their iPods. Man I miss those years.

yeah 2000s songs were the last bunch of good songs now you occasionally get one or two good songs

@Mac this one has the soul and passion of the nineties

I’m listening to Five For Fighting Superman (It’s Not Easy) the end of April 2023

I’m right there with ya

When I tell you no way I'm listening to 100 years, now that I'm 29 and my daughter is almost 2. 😢

❤

One of the most unfair things is that children can get cancer. It is absolutely so unfair that they never even get a chance at life.

Bless his soul❤

🥺

​@@mychannelnotyourshey

The way you wrote that sentence made me cry. I hope for healing and happiness for you.

Amen my friend amen

Hello, how are you doing it's nice meeting you here

Well that's 99 % of the earth pop 😂

I really needed to hear this today, thank you--I am in the deepest depression of my life, just going thru the motions of trying to live each day.

@@trishhyrowski1375, me too.

Well said man, thanks

@@trishhyrowski1375 hey! you can do it! most of us are trying to fight our inner demons, depression, anxiety don't give up it may not be easy but you can do it :)

Wow I am in Canada and in order to survive with one child and say a home or rent, I think most couples would have to both be working.

​@underated17 what do they do with the 4 kids in Canada? Put them on a moose😂. But for real. Sometimes it's more financially viable to have 1 person stay home, even if its not what either wants.

@@commonsense.1014 I agree with you. Part of me would really like to stay home. For many complex reasons. I overthink and would not have the patience to deal with a lot of people. I feel like there are more than enough duties around the house even without kids. I wish this generation would understand this.

@@commonsense.1014 🤣

It's Not Easy

I dont remember askin

Hell yes brother

This song gets me everytime i come back to listen to it.. idk. 😭🤗

I'll be back 20 years from now

@hime, so this song IS 20 or more years old? Unbelievable!

Secondhand Serenade said it best. "Songs never die."

My childrens’ dad became a real dad, and I’m grateful

This song resonates

Thank you to all of you who wrote these lyrics, and to everyone who never get deserved credit.

Fucking Mood Mate. ❤

​@@Wandering4dayzchills mate, chills

Makes sense.

It was , played it over & over ❤️😔🙏

Ahn Jae me too :)

So have you seen every episode of "Smallville" (Yes spelled it right this time)

Abi Ewalt I have :D

I'm with you on that.

you’re a real superman by me, a woman.

hang in there. I took care of my wife when she was disabled. I felt helpless and hopeless because no one would help nne. now my wife passed away years ago and I wish I could go back but I can't. looking back I wished I had asked for God's help. maybe you can too.

Leave them. Put yourself first.

My Condolences

@@bryanjabeguero2719 thanks bro

👍

ty for this comment

❤️

I love this comment. I could’ve wrote it. Everything in my life has been justified by how pretty I am or not pretty enough depending on who was in my life at the time. I surrender my life to Jesus Christ and now know the meaning of true pure love. If you’re reading this now and September Oh 2021, surrender now your life to Jesus Christ. The only meaning in life is to worship our creator. The God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob. Blessings to you all of you

Dare to be different, we're all unique here! And we are proud of it!

I mean, I'd have things to be proud of but right now, I kind of am broke. Broke and living with my parents.

2024. Heyyo

2024 heyyyy

I’m listening to Five For Fighting Superman It’s Not Easy late January 2024 0:45

nailed it

Miss smallville :(

Smallville will ALWAYS be one of my favorite shows, the theme song also was great

I love it I just watched the whole series again after years

A man is only hu-man like everyone else. I’m only a man in a phony red sheet looking for special things inside of me. Inside of me.

Feel it too bro. Everyday showing a smile like everything is gonna be alright for your family. But deep inside, you have to bear a pain that you cant show to anyone. It's insanely hard

I been having a very tonight time, this song helps

A man who allows himself to cry and show emotions is in my eyes a real man I would pick him over some tough guy anytime and i mean anytime I want somebody who will laugh with me and cry with me My own Superman Jenny 😊😳🌟✨

Toxic masculinity is real. ☹️
