I first heard this song when I was around 10 or 11 and I was obsessed. But at 29 the lyrics mean so much more 😢 I think I need it more now than I did back then
Brings back so many childhood memories. I miss the good ole days so much it physically hurts sometimes. This right here was definitely the good days! Loved her so much growing up & still do ❤️
@tashafarmer93 Me too, takes me back to my preteen years. For a Disney Channel pop song, it does have a really good message behind it about taking risks and not being afraid of the outcomes and what not.
I sang this in church with a friend for Youth Sunday when I was in high school in the late '00s. I still have the highlighted lyrics sheet she gave me as a reminder of the good times we had.
this song is a gorgeous piece of art. from the lyrics to the composition to the performance. absolutely beautiful bridge, my favorite part of the song.
2003 was a great year, i love this song brings back good memories definitely when life was more simple. I was happy and I didn't even know it. lol sometimes I wish I can get inside a time machine and relive it all over again.
I'm going to sing this song from Hilary Duff for Round 1⃣of Cafe Quarantine Karaoke in March 2022. In fact, I'm so excited to sing with a former Disney Channel star that I remember well from the past. 💛
Lyrics: You think going nowhere When you walk on the street Acting like you just don't care Life could be so sweet Why you wanna be like that If there's nothing new You are not fooling no one Not even fooling you So I walk a little slower And open up your eyes Sometimes it's so hard to see The good things passing by There may never be a sign No flashing neon lights Telling you to make your move Or when the time is right So Why not (why not) Take a crazy chance Why not (why not) Do a crazy dance If you lose the moment You might lose a lot So why not Why not Why not take a crazy chance? Why not take a crazy chance? You always dress in yellow When you want to dress in gold Instead of listening to your heart You do just what you're told You keep waiting where you are But what ya never know Let's just get into your car And go baby go So Why not (why not) Take a crazy chance Why not (why not) Do a crazy dance If you lose the moment You might lose a lot So why not Why not Oh I could be the one for you Oh yeah Maybe yes, maybe no Oh It could be the thing to do What I'm saying is you gotta let me know Oh Oh Oh You'll never get to heaven Or even to L.A. If you don't believe there's a way Why not (why not) Take a star from the sky Why not (why not) Spread your wings and fly Oh It might take a little And it might take a lot But why not Why not Why not (take a crazy chance) Take a crazy chance Why not (do a crazy dance) Do a crazy dance If you lose the moment You might lose a lot So why not Why not
Hillary Duff makes me feel so much younger again. Anytime I watch Lizzie McGuire or listen to any of her music my inner 7 year old is totally impressed. My oldest sister loved her and it's amazing. 7 year old me: YAY Hillary Duff!!!! 🥰‼️💯
Oh, my gosh, I love this song by Hilary Duff in a great way. And "The Lizze Mcguire Movie" is also where this song is from. I loved that movie a lot, too, because it was cute in my opinion. I saw the film when I was 14.
Man this song had such a huge impact on me! I was a little 13 year old obsessed with being popular, and when I heard this song it was the first time I realized maybe I should do what I want instead of what was cool. Thus followed my teenage years of cringy misguided punk style hahaha, but at least I learned to do what I liked. Now I'm about to be 30, completely comfortable in my own skin and my own style, and so glad this song woke me up as a teen to realize what we all learn after we leave high school and enter the real world: "popular" doesn't matter.
I loved her songs because of this. They taught me it was okay to be myself! I still listen here and there and the lyrics still hit the spot 🫶🏼 it’s one of my fave car ride by myself and scream my lungs out to the lyrics songs
"Why Not" Yet no one can deny you must try With an eye on the goal you apply Desire must not be in short supply An never let your reply be a darn lie Not to reason why but reason why not
Trying to sleep. What does my brain do?! Starts playing this song!!! 😫😫😫 why?!?! My brain: Why not?! Damnit, here we go again. It's haunting me 👻 For reference, this was my jam when I was a kid. I'm 25 with 2 kids now so it's like, really? Really brain?
