Kenny Chesney - Don't Blink (Official Video) 

My dad always wanted a log cabin, so when my mom died at 78, he was 88, he built one, and sold their first home us 4 kids were born in. I told him, you're too old... well, he did, and drove till he was 99, and lived to 102. What a life he had, seen it all. His name- Frank Andrew, Naugatuck, Ct

My oldest daughter turned 44 today. Life is a precious fleeting thing, enjoy each day and be a good person.

If you're listenin' to this 2024, don't blink.

Recently married 50 years. Truly don’t blink. It went so very fast . Life does that.

My Dad always said, " Life is like a roll of tissue paper, the closer you get to the end the faster it goes". AMEN

This is so true. Can't believe I'm almost 55. Just yesterday I was a teenager playing football and didn't have a care in the world. Now been married for 32 years with 4 kids and 7 grandkids. Time really does fly by!

As my dad was dying in the hospital room surrounded by family my uncle played this music video because my dad loved it. My dad was 51, he had lupus and for a long time he was sick. He had both his legs amputated and… well, he passed on March 24, 2024 the day after my 18th birthday.

He's right. I'm a 60 year old man. I've seen a lot. Treasure every moment, because these days will never come again.

My mom passed 1 year last October at 93 ... She said " ... Enjoy being a child as long as you can, because you're old for alot longer..."

I lost my wife of just 15 years almost a month ago. We met when she was 37. I remembered that sexy woman walked off the bus to see me for the first time. We met online . Fast forward to just May 17th of this year she died from cancer as I held her hand. 15 years is short enough. It all went so fast it's almost like a dream now😢

Those of you who still have Mothers, I hope you appreciate what you got. I was barely grown at 25 when I lost mine. It's been almost 25 years since I've been hugged by her. Go tell yours that you love her....in person. Mean it. Understand what you have.

Becoming a parent really puts this song into real perspective. Life’s a whirlwind and it travels by you just as fast.❤

I have a beautiful wife and 3 kids. We got married fairly young, I remember saying this "I love my child but I wish they could hold this bottle by them self", or "I wish they could walk so I didn't have to carry them everywhere" or "I wish they could watch themselves so I didn't have to have a sitter" or "I wish they could drive so I didn't have to take them to ......" but now... its "I wish time would slow down!" I lost my mother a few months ago and that was a blow, my youngest is graduating high school. I look back and say "God can you make them little again so I can carry them and hold that bottle for them". Young married people take this message to heart, take each day and hold it as if it were your last. Love people and forgive simple as that. That way you have no regrets as you get older.

I love this song! I am almost 76 years old, and this song really strums my heart strings. I lost my favorite grandpa in 1972, the second grandpa in 1974, my grandma in 1993. My mother-in-law died suddenly in 1989, my father-in-law in 1992. Then, in 1998 I lost my mom at the relatively young age of 71, my dad followed less than four short months later. I thought the losses couldn't get any worse, but then I lost the absolute love of my life, my husband of almost 41 years in 2004 at the ripe old age of 63. Then my two brothers, one at age 59 in 2013, the other in 2017. There have been other family that I loved dearly, too many to mention. Treasure each day as if it were your last, love your family and keep them close in your heart, tell them you love them. Whether your loved one passes away from a lengthy terminal illness or suddenly, you're never ready to lose them, to let them go. Truth is, we have absolutely no choice. But I know I will see my loved ones in Heaven. A friend of mine told me, when she had lost her mother, that we don't cry really for them, we cry for ourselves because we're going to miss the loved ones so much -- truer words were never spoken! I tell my son every day, multiple times each day, that I love him. Treasure the memories, for time is so fleeting. Most of all, cling to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in whom faith will carry you through anything.

When you get older this songs hits so much harder then when you are 20 or 30...teared up listening to it. So accurate it hurts,

I dedicate this to my companion and soulmate Sidney Wayne Bell whom I lost on 12-25-20,due to a heart -attack.He was my VBF, I LOVE YOU

It's been almost 20 years since this song came out...don't blink

This song is so true. I was a 18 year old kid in the Navy yesterday. Today I’m a 51 year old Papaw. I have realized I have lived long than the years I have left.

Sad but so true. I’m 67 and I’m amazed at where the time went!!! I truly love my wife of 50 years!!!! She’s still my only love!!!!

This song was selected by my son for our Mother-Son Dance at his wedding. Two years later his son was born. I simply told him, “Don’t blink”.

This makes me rethink my priorities in life.

To be honest, country was never my favorite. My mom LOVED kenny Chesney. Kenny was her favorite, especially Dont Blink. Every since she passed in 2013 I have listened to this song every day. It's become my new favorite. Love you mom, life is too short.

Am I the only one who cries EVERY time you hear this song?! I'm 37 with three daughters, one about to graduate high school and I've been with my husband for almost 18 years.... It really pulls on my heart strings. Makes you think. Life really has gone by so fast already. It's sad.

as someone that grew up with this song, i only hope this next generation does the same

I pray when this Virus is gone people will put Family first"" life is so precious"" Don't Blink 💘💘😘

Lost my beautiful wife of 36 years, met her right out of high school, boy she was a looker, my betterhalf. Cancer took my Pammy, life is a journey, and what a beautiful ride it was. Got two beautiful kids. Looking back all I can say is; life goes by faster than you think. Live like there's no tomorrow. Smell the roses, enjoy life and I always tell those dear to me I love them. Love y'all...even them haters need some love in their miserable lives..

At 49, with a 30 year old son and 26 year old daughter, this song really hurts😭

“When your hour glass runs out of sand, you can’t flip it over and start again.” Wow. My great grandmother turned 101 at the beginning of the year and she kept telling me how 101 isn’t that long. This song really reinforces those words of wisdom.

I usually don't comment on videos 😂 but my father in law and I use to sing and dance to this song all the time together. Unfortunately he passed away on February 19, 2020. This is my first time listening to this song since he passed and I half expect him to come in the kitchen dancing 😂 that's how we were. I'm so sorry I couldn't do more for him. We all love you pops rest in peace ❤️❤️❤️

Hey you scrolling through the comments it’s gonna be okay life is like that.

my husband loved this song. Sadly, he passed two years ago. Don't Blink, make the most of every moment...life goes so fast! Love and miss you, Robbie!!

This is REAL COUNTRY wish it would come back

my highschool sweet heart became my wife and still is 20 years later... 3 beautiful children 3 grandbabies... loving life

The older you get, the faster it goes. My parents would be 60 yrs. If they were here, they are in Heaven now celebrating. When God wants you, he'll take you. Hallelujah Father.

My highschool sweetheart left me, BUT I FOUND JESUS ❤

I watched this when it uploaded and I was 18. I am now 32 and this song hits different. I have done my best to be conscious of the passage of time and to appreciate every day. But even with this mindset, time flies!

I just want to say, the modern day blink is your cell. Put down your phone and love the moment with who your are with in the moment. Your gonna look up from your phone one day and there won't be no one sitting across from you.

"Take every breath God gives you for what it's worth!" 2:25

*Kenny Chesney, George Strait,* *and Alan Jackson craft melodies* *that resonate deeply, threading* *the fabric of human experience* *with songs that feel like* *personal anthems for life's* *highs, lows, and everything in* *between.*

I just turned 59. Last year of my 50's. It really did go by like a blink. My girls are 36 and 34, I've got 2 sweet grandsons. My mind still feels like I'm in my 30's but my body puts that in check pretty fast lol. Do those things you've always wanted to do. You're not getting any younger. I always wanted to learn to fly a plane. I've taken my first lesson. I'll go scuba diving someday in the next couple of years in Iceland, where the two continents meet. My mom has been gone for 19 years tonight, and she didn't get to do a lot of the things on her list, time is a thief. Just do the things.

im 18 years old and this song makes me cry I appreciate life more than most kids my life

my Dad used to always play this song when I was 6. I remember waking up from a nap and hearing the muted distant music coming from the back deck. It was this song. I went out to the back deck and opened my door to the most beautiful orange and pink sunset I’ve ever seen. I’m 21 now and every time I hear this song it takes me back to that memory. Crazy how much these lyrics resonate with me now. Shouldn’t have blinked…

After losing my furry baby of 17 years, this song has brought me comfort and love to what time I was able to spend with her. Thank you for this 🥲

Can every one like or comment on this so i can be brought back to this song occasinally I'm 15 years old right now but I was only 7 yesterday😥

Because when your hour glass runs out of sand, you can't flip it over and start again. Favorite quote of all time right there.

Man this song hits so hard considering how fast life goes by when you look back in retrospect. I think when going through a struggle, it might seem like life is slow. But, when it's all said and done, it'll be over. Live your best life and be kind to your neighbor folks!

I blinked a few times and 72 years was past and gone. Had kids, had grandkids, and then had great grandkids. I can say from experience, this song is spot on. Time goes by so fast, you can miss your entire life if you're not careful.

Always wanted to get older fast, became a dad, had a kid, she's grown and almost out of the house, I wish I could do it over again, man what sweet memories I have doing all that.

My sister passed away on January 22nd 2021 at the young age of 37 unexpectedly she left behind 3 young kids. Enjoy life while you can every precious moment because you never know when it’s gonna end.

Enjoy life to the fullest. Tomorrow ain't promise. I have loss my Father, Mother and now my Brother (2/14/2019). Now I am all alone. My sisters and brothers in Christ, Don't Blink.

I am 87 this song hits home xoxo thank you.

My bride just hit the big six oh. Remember the day I met her back in 1982 like it was yesterday. We'll be celebrating our 33rd anniversary the end of this month(March). Three children and eight grandchildren later, plus all kinds of trials and tribulations, we're still hanging in there. For any of you younger folks reading, respect and love your parents. They won't be around forever. Great song and good advice.

This song brings me to tears all over again.This song was new at the same time my wife was dying of cancer. I miss you Tammy Hughes and I will always love you. I cry for you everyday and hope you are the first one I see on the other side.

I heard this at my dental cleaning the other day and had to actively work on not tearing up. The older I get, the more songs like this make me emotional.

We blinked, and now the video is 14 years old. It came out when I was in high school, and another blink later, I'm a family man watching my firstborn daughter go to school. Life is indeed too short; we need to embrace and treasure every moment whenever possible. We live to make memories, so let's make the best of them

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. - Ephesians 4:32

I blinked and now its 2019.. ten years just like that.

May God welcome you with open arms, Mr. Keith. ❤

RIP Toby Keith at 62 due to stomach cancer. Don't blink.

My mother just past away a few weeks .she was such a great role model to me. She was such a hard-working loving person.she always thought about others. She was a cancer survivor of 26 years I seen her struggles and she pulled her self up and she just kept moving forward. My daughter's made a DVD with all pictures of my mother father and family from when we were young to the present and they put Kenny Chesney don't blink in the background.We play it at my mothers wake. It was such an inspiring video of our family will always remember this song with my mother.love you so much mom

October 20th 1982 I left home at 17 for the Army. I'm now 52 and remember it like it was yesterday. I think I blinked

Well, my mom is fighting for life at the hospital now, this song is so true. Mom i love and pray u get through it

With everything going on in the world, this song hits hard. Enjoy life, love each other, because you never know ❤

I'm African American and listen to alot of R&B....But this is the best song ever....🤜🏿

If you read this it means god has lent you the most precious gift you could ever have, life! Don't blink.

Believe me on that 🙏❤️💯🦸🐻🦅🍍

When I’m having a bad day I come watch Kenny Chesney videos

As I sit here on my 'puter just after midnight and I think gee, another song that tells the story of my life. I think back on the 'victories' and the 'losses' and I realize it's harder to remember the victories; the losses, on the other hand jump right out to torture you with the regret of the things left unsaid or undone; and how you wish you had let that minor slight go instead of releasing your anger and saying the things you can NEVER take back.I'm much older and just a little wiser, and I wish I could go back and hear my own words. Some time it's hard to say I love you when you're feeling angry, but that is when it means the most. Don't let anger or fatigue of the day rob you of a memory that will payoff a million times more in later years, and is so much better than that snappy 'come back' that you can't even remember.Take a lesson from an old man. Life is much too valuable for that, and goes by much too quickly. Don't wait for tomorrow to say what you need to say NOW, as tomorrow doesn't always come. Hug your wife much tighter and more often, tell her and your children how much you love them and what they mean to you, you will be much happier if you do.....

I just wanna be a kid again

At 59, this hits "right between the eyes." Time flies weather you're having fun or not. #Don'tBlink

Im 60 and my daughter, my only child is 40. She doesn't get it yet but she will soon~

This song is so true. I remember being 8...10...12....16...20.... where did they all go? Now I'm almost 40. Jesus. Even 30 seems like light years back.

My grandpa told me back in 2005 when he was my soul guardian with his wife my grandma 😇 he said son I love you I hope you know that just know I won’t be around much longer I’ve lived my life and it’s your turn to live yours I promise things will get rough but don’t worry you will overcome everything I miss you grandma and grandpa 😭❤️🥺

I played this at my wedding and danced with my mom. Now fourteen years later she is 80 and I’m 38. Time flies. She is also a cancer survivor of 2 years. Mom I love you and love Everyday we get with you. Love your son.

As a senior who graduated 2022 and now in the work force, times already flying by a hell of a lot faster than I wish. Some days I just wanna go back and relive all of it just one more time.

Man this song hits me. I am 22 and about to start college, obviously not fresh out of high school, it feels like only yesterday I was six and saying 'i can't wait till I am 18 and can stop school and make my own rules.' Songs like this really make me reflect and man I wish I could flip that hour glass and start back over and appreciate the good times.

Who else is still Loving Kenny in August 2020? And now February 2021? How about August 2021? How about September 2021? How about October 2021?

My 20's were wild but fun. Made plenty of mistakes in life's journey but the most positive and rewarding thing was raising my son. He's 22 now and Im reliving my 20's through him in certain ways. I blinked.

This one just hit home 12-25-2022 Sadly lost my husband. So thankful I was with him and able to tell him I love you one last time. 33 years of marriage gone in a Blink of an eye... So Thankful for the memories. 💔

Don't Blink! Your not promised tomorrow. Make the best out of today. God is great! Beer is good and people are crazy! Live life without regrets forgive and forget. Life is too short to dwell on what you woulda, coulda, shoulda, did. Don't live in the past cause that past never see's the future. The poorest man is not the one without a nickel it's the one without a dream. Follow your dreams. Live for today! God bless.

As a kid, you always thought that time passed slowly, but as you age time starts to go by faster and faster. From 3-14 takes 25 years to pass, 15-26 takes 8, 27-40 takes 4, and 40-death takes just seconds. You can't change time, you just have to fill what time you can with great memories.

I blinked, and i was 67. Just LOVE and look out for each other. Lots of love.💘

I miss his generation. They had it figured out. It’s so simple what he says yet those words carry so much weight. They are truly words of wisdom. Kinda makes me wanna cry when I hear his words. I’m 66 and I have seen and done so much but he knows what counts. I know he could teach all of us how to appreciate what we have. It reminds of being a kid and laying in the grass looking at the clouds. That is something I still do.

I remember listening to this at 29 after my father passed. My little sister passed at 29 3 years later. Now my mother lives with me. Enjoy family while you have them. Just about everyone is gone now. Just buried my last grandparent in February. Mid 30's and just about my entire family is gone. Life really does go by fast.

this song makes me cry... every time damn...

Life flys by the older you get.

I’m currently 28. I’ve given up on the dating scene. I had my high school sweetheart. Was married for 7 years. Been divorced about 2 years now. I’m still not sure where to go, but this song gives me a glimmer of hope no matter of how small it is. Still not sure where to go from here but maybe love isn’t dead.

As young people we thought life was going to last a long time. Now 61yrs. the words to this song is so true. Don't miss out on anything absorb it all. Take NOTHING for granted.

Do not blink, otherwise the angels are coming for you!

Mom always said time flies by so fast. Mom was right. Know I'm 66 yrs old. Both parents have passed to the gates of heaven ❤ Tell your Mom and Dad you love them and lots of hugs ❤

This was one of my grandpa's favorite songs before he passed... he always said the lyrics hold so true and I will always love this song because of him.

I’ll be turning 19 in 2 days, what I would do to be 9 again. So much was different when I was 9. The one thing I wish I still had today that I had then is my Grandpa. He passed in 2012 at 68 and I miss him every day. He left us too early and we didn’t have the chance to say goodbye. If I could say one thing to him again I would simply say I love you and I hope I’m making you proud. Cherish your friends and loved ones because they won’t always be here.

I still can't listen to this song without tearing up.

I understand this song . I'm a grandma of 6. Time just flies. I think and remember when my 3 daughters were little. Now I'm watching my Grands grow up before my eyes. I'm grateful for my memories.

Im 62 iv lost 3 sisters and 3 brothers 5 of us boys left lost countless friends and family gone some older some younger lost my dad in 84 and my mom 2002 life dose go by so fast ..............

This was my class song of 2008. almost 10 years ago. I married my highschool sweetheart and we have two beautiful children that are growing up so fast. truly don't blink.

I’m only 25, but man how time marches on. The older I get the faster it goes. A quarter of a century. It feels like I could chuck a stone and it would land on my graduation day. 4 more years and I’ll be at my high schools class of 14’ 10 year reunion. And I haven’t done anything with that time. And yet, time marches on.

My mom use to play this when I was a child I’m now 26 and I have 5 kids.. and I’m like wow… life really goes by so fast! 🥺

You were blessed to have him in your life as long as you did, thank God

When my middle son got married (2007) he had us dancing to this song. I just cried the entire time. Today is my oldest son's 39th birthday and I just can't believe just how fast the years have gone by. I have always told my three son's that once you reach 21 the years just fly by! Now my Grandson is 16 and it has all started again. Thanks Kenny for such a beautiful song. It's still a favorite of mine....
