Best line..”i go back to the loss of a real good friend and the sixteen summers i shared with him”. To all those that have been blessed with a true friendship in their lives, cheers! 🍻
That line always hurts it makes me remember an older cousin I had that I looked up too like a big brother....losing him Christmas of 92 still kills me to this day #RIPTony
@@dannywilson8711 i feel that man. Im sure that was very hard. I do challenge you to view it in a different light. Let the everlasting feeling you are left with be of happiness and not sadness. The amount of time he had on this earth impacting you is so much brighter then the quick moment he left you. Don’t concentrate on that sad moment. Dont give it that power. Spend your energy and thoughts on the great memories of your shared moments and try to feel joyful that he is in a better place!
OVER THE CLOT SHOT,, FUCK THAT,,, KENNY LOST HIS BEST DRUMMER BECAUSE OF THAT SHIT.....26 YEARS HE DEVOTED TO YOU KENNY,, U SHOULDA STUCK UP FOR SEAN..... FUCK CBS
This reminds me of my youth. I turned 51 on 4/4/21. And I’d give anything to go back and relive my younger years. Especially the way the world is now. We had it good in the 80’s as teenagers.
waking up on Saturday morning to ride your bike to your buddy's house and then ride around all day catching up with all the other friends and trying to play as many downs of back yard football as you can before the street light comes on or mom yells for ya.
If you're between the ages of 25-35 , these are by far the best years of your life. Make the most of those years . Work hard play hard but don't be stupid.
I am only 16 and everytime i hear this song i think of the two freinds i lost in two separate car accidents. I was really close with both of them but i can only remember them. People please dont drink and drive you may think you can do it but you can't. You may not get hurt but others feel pain because of your stupidity. SO PLEASE DONT DRINK AND DRIVE!!!!!
I am sorry for your loss. When I was 17 I was in a bad car wreck due to drinking and driving (I was in the backseat) and they almost lost me. Long story short I had an 8 percent chance of living and being 100% brain dead IF I did live, I was life flighted, prnounced dead on the scene (covered in blood/seizuring) I was cut out of the car and then life flighted to Dallas. so yes like you said Don't drink and drive man its not worth it
I lost my best friend on Valentine’s Day… many years ago, he was walking his girlfriend home… from a party, the snow was heavy, they were walking against traffic so they could get out of the way when traffic came, a Drunk passed a car on a bridge and took him out… it still haunts me today after 40 years 😢
Listening to the song makes me cry every time. My dad would always play Kenny Chesney and sing during the summer. Memories spent on the lake in Tennessee, Grilling cheeseburgers on the grill, and riding bikes with my childhood friends... Now I’m in college and I miss the good old days.
Your good ole days are on a couple years back.. Mine are about 45 years in the past.. You have A LOT of living left to do bud.. a lot. Treasure time.. it will slip through your fingers so fast.
Love this because I get it!! My grown kids would say the same exact thing. The "Summertime" is finally here! I am a 58 yr old Father of 3 and whenever my kids hear Kenny Chesney they beg me not to sing. Lol.. Sounds like you had a good dad and a good childhood! Take care :)
Huh? 🤔 That doesn't even make sense 😂 If they don't get chills from it while remembering their childhood, it's probably because it just didn't mean that much to them as a kid. What you're saying is like telling someone "If you don't really love this song, it's probably because you don't understand how much you really love it" 😂 Not a shocker that someone who spells childhood as "child hood" even AFTER editing their comment, doesn't make much sense. Apparently you spent more of your childhood listening to Kenny Chesney than listening to your 2nd grade English teacher.
@@Tacticalburrito69 I guess you and I just operate on different levels. Some people are naturally thoughtful, and some aren't. Didn't seem that deep to me. Just my initial thoughts, but if you'd like me to actually go deep, I can.
"to the loss of a real good friend and the 16 summers i shared w him" i go back... Happy birthday Mat!!!!!! Forever almost 32.. only the good die young.
Music is a common bond we as humans have, It is not so much the song itself as it is the memories that are triggered by certain songs during certain times in our lives. Music is in a way a time machine. Del Reeves girl on the billboard takes me back to when I was 3 years old sitting in my basement with my fisher price record player. Bangles Manic monday takes be back to 3rd grade, riding in the back of Heather's Volkswagen beetle. It felt like I had forever back then LOL. Sir Mix alot baby got back takes me back to 1992 at the skating rink with my friends, the world was so new and everything was exciting. Only the good die young still gives me chills as my mom died at the young age of 52. Can't help falling in love takes me back to july 2nd 1994, my first kiss. When I hear "when you say nothing at all" I can STILL smell the fresh perm on my first real girlfriend. The list goes on. Music is the ultimate time machine. Cherish those you love. Make every day count! Live each day as it is your last. This is the ULTIMATE song that discusses this matter how music is such a common bond for us all. It is hard to listen to this song with out a tear coming to my eye..
Every time I hear and this song and other songs of the album it takes me back when I was 6 maybe 7 and we were living in a town house and this song and the album were the biggest at the time he even won album of the year for it and entertainer of the year but it takes me back to that time where the album was big and every time you'd flip through country music channels you'd find one of his music videos off his when the sun goes down album or on the radio you'd find one of his songs off this album a lot so every time I hear one of his songs off his when the sun goes down album now on the radio I cherish that and just remember when this album was big and when it was made and how young I was
AtlasInFlames amen brother that's why I try enjoying everyday cause I know I'll look back and miss it, in only 22 but been working since I was 16 and always think about the past.
Same here, man. Same here. Now I'm almost 24, no direction in life in bumfuck-no-jobs-anywhere, USA, with a botched career in the military under my belt. Went to the military at 17, with a waiver, and i was too young to fully comprehend selfless service at the time. Wish i could go back in with what i know now.
I just go back. To childhood, mine and my son's. I go back to vacations we had as a family. I go back to all of us, me, my husband, our son and our 3 cats, and 1 dog. I go back to my brother and I being kids. Our grandparents were still alive, our mom was still alive I go back to my son and his girlfriend taking me to see Kenny Chesney. Thank you KC
If you are north of 40, and this song doesn't bring you back to your youth... you might be dead inside. I didn't think my teenage years were particularly special - at that time - but looking back, thy were glorious, and appreciate every single memory.
Man... I remeber sitting in my highschool parking lot in senoir year listening to this song with a group of my buddys not really understanding the meaning of this song....We were looking forward to graduating, and "growing up", getting real jobs, etc... Then covid happened...never experienced prom, never had a highschool graduation, never got to experience my senior year and never truly got to emotionally detach from my highschool... Now fast forward 4 years, my buddys don't hang out anymore, we've all got separate lives, all have jobs. Now I listen to this song and it brings me back to those highschool days, smell of fresh cut grass on the football field, seeing your buddys everyday, summer football games, screwing around in class with your friends, enjoying life before "real life" began....Man I miss those days...what I would do to go back..... I see all of the other comments, man this song has made an impact on so many...our storys may very, but we all have the same thing in common...remembering the good ol days, and how blessed we had it and didn't even know....cheers to you all...
this was my class song when i graduated in 2007. its been almost 9byears 3 kids and a wife later. So enjoy your time as it is cuz its never gonna be the same.
+Roman Hamm The memories you're making now and the next years will be what you always remember. Don't skimp on the good stuff. Take a few chances with your heart. Date a really strange girl. Have smart friends. Don't blow all your dough. Good luck young man. Make it count.
makes me think of my childhood friend that passed away 11 years ago. All of our dreams of riding our motorcycle cross the country never happened. See you again Darrell
+Dylan Burnham I just turned 75...but it seems like just a few hours ago we were racing over at the North Carolina drag strips. Great memories. Great friends...most of whom are gone now. My advice...live life now to the fullest.
I really want to go back in time and restart my childhood again because I miss being a kid, it’s getting difficult making friends these days and I don’t wanna be an adult anymore. I also want to go back in time and restart going to school again because I miss going to elementary, and middle school as a kid. I also miss going to summer and high school as a teenager so much. I hate being an adult and want to return going back to school again already 😢
this song came on the radio as I crossed the ga line. first time in years that I came home. it was for a close friends funeral. only the good die young still stops me in my tracks. Love ya Randy!
I lost my friend (Dustin Michael (Dusty) Stopher at 13 due to a silly go cart accident!!But this song helps with the beautiful memories of him….now 41 years of age and this song makes my best friends face so vivid!!!I love and miss you Dusty!!

I ♡ this song. I recently lost my best friend of 17 years and this song just hits home. It reninds me of all the good times we had and what's most most important in life, love and friendships.
This song brings so many emotions... It is 2021 the world is on fire and i so long for my younger life. Grateful to have grown up when people actually were kind to each other. I am 62 and am glad i am on the downside of the roller-coaster called life..

This song hits extra hard in 2021. I think about 90s when things were so much simpler. Sure back in that day I truly loved my first girl and lost my first good friend but when looking at the bigger picture outside of myself, society was just better. People were nicer. Things were less complicated. I miss it.
I was only in elementary/middle school in the 90’s, but I agree…so much simpler. The country as a whole was better; I saw my dad go back to work in 1992 (and he worked steadily until retirement), and we no longer received food from our suburb. There *certainly* was not NEARLY as much hate circulating around as there is now.
I am only 27 but now life is not fun like it was and I remember riding around with my mamma blasting this now she went to meet God that was 2 years ago and I remember when. I was young and life felt like there was joy in it but every time I hear this song I go back
Absolutely love this song I just lost my very close captain firefighter uncle in Houston tx at 58's station an he fell in line of duty 1 year an 3 months ago they had a hero funeral for him I never wanted to believe it was real an never wanna return to another hero funeral it was absolutely beautiful yes but so heart wrenching an he passed at age 50 almost 51 didn't quite make it an this song always breaks me every tine makes me flash back on the memories I had w/ him an how much I miss him he was like my 2nd dad I could always run to him when I needed him an how i wish we could turn back the time an rewind an stop the time in its tracks this song definitely hits home an still today I miss him so much wish I had 1 phone call to him
This song is actually a song that makes me go back..........to the day I FINALLY got out of a bad situation and was free! I drove down the highway as I moved away, with my windows down, and felt happy.......which I hadn't for years. This song is a "happy day" song for me!
Hello I really do appreciate you for being a big fan,thank you for your wonderful comments on my post,it really means a lot to me.I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music
I always hear people call George Strait or Garth Brooks the king of country but for me it’s always been Kenny Chesney. Like every song he makes is a masterpiece
I'm a hardcore hip hop fan, not the trashy kids bop you hear on the radio, I'm talking bout real NY old school Thug shit. But when I heard this song a while back I fell in love with it' Kenny Chesney knows how to make a good composition. Peace...
90loneeagle Don't cheat yourself out of true music enjoyment LoneEagle. Give it ALL a try! If you looked at just my music collection, you'd never be able to tell who it belonged to. A man, woman, black, white, old or young? I say no to nothing until I've given it a chance.
@Kenny Chesney oh yes. Been a fan of yours for year's now. My Husband also loved your music. He passed back in April of this year from Liver Cancer. We were together nearly 38 years. You are a great singer, performer, an your music speaks truth in how life is. Thank you for commenting back, if it's really you. Love ya an would enjoy seeing you one day in concert. Maybe even meeting you. You have a kind soul, an a Humbleness that makes you different from most country singers. I actually live not to far from you. I'm in Anderson SC. So it's not that far. Much Love to you an who knows, one day I will be able to meet you. God Bless You an Keep You.
@Kenny Chesney I truly hope it's really you I'm talking to. I'm not stupid. I know people portray someone they are not.. No regards to how they are hurting someone else in the process.. If it's you, please prove it to me some way.. I think a lot of you as a singer. I have always enjoyed your music an I know you an I are close in age. Hope to hear from You . You.
@@kennychesney9718 you are a true an sincere musician . Your words you sing I can tell you mean them.. You feel them an it's a True Blessing for me to hear you sing.. God Bless You Sweetie an keep being real...
@@kennychesney9718 thank you for your Beautiful music. I can tell you feel what you are singing about... It's a real , an true Blessing to listen to you. God Bless You...
Dude I want to go back to elementary school when I didn’t have a care in the world. Now I’ll be turning 17 and I’m getting a job. Time really does fly.
When I listen to this song I remember my father. I lost him when I was 17, now 35. I remember Baghdad before the invasion in 2003 and all my teenage memories. God how many days passes by without properly cherishing those we love.
Good for you. 4 years from now when I'm 16, and learn how to drive, I wanna get me a pick up truck. But until then, I wait. Congrats on the truck, enjoy it.
If. Only. Country. Music. Still. Sounded. This. Good. The bible. Says this. Life is but. A vapor of like smoke. Here today. Gone. Tomorrow. Treat youre. Fellow. Man. And. Women. With. Respect. Try. To anyway. ✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌💫💥💫💥💫💞
I graduated high school in 2010 and man this song makes me tear up. After high school life flashes right by ya. I'll be 29 this year. Enjoy your childhood/teenage years because you only get it once.
This song brings me back to the fun that I had in High school playing baseball and football and seeing my name in the newspapers after every game that We won! Oh to be 18 years old again! Thanks Kenny for bring me back to The Great Memories that I had in High School with My Bros and Friends!
I go back to tons of memories in my life when I hear this song. This song kind of relates to my life. My best friend died at a young age too and I think of those lines in that song. My favorite song and lines! I hope you go back when you hear it too!!
Hello I really do appreciate you for being a big fan,thank you for your wonderful comments on my post,it really means a lot to me.I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music
When this song came out, I was 6 years old and I would hear it on the radio all the time. I loved it back then, and I still do today. I had no idea what the lyrics truly meant back then, but now at 22 years old, it all makes sense now. Sometimes I wish I could go back to those days.
Reminds of playing Basketball & Football , Running Track in the 80 s in Dripping Spring s,tx seemed like a dream, Remember ING Brett Thurman & Laurie Hulbrett Coach Carl Waitts in the 7 the grade ,Damm I wish I could go
I remember jamming out to this song when it had just came out and was about two years out of high school. Back then I thought I knew it all. Looking at this here tonight seeing this was 13 years ago this song came out is crazy. I definitely go back everytime I hear this song. 🖤
This song brings me back to the memories I had with my uncle my grandpa & my dog that died all in the same year RIP Uncle Michael 2/15/1951-12/16/2012 RIP Papaw Ernie 9/18/1926-3/10/2013 and RIP Drake 12/15/2003-7/6/2013 I love and miss u all to this day
Lost my best friend of 16 year last may 28th 2023. Every time i hear this song an many other takes me back to times id kill just to relive one more time.
