I loved this song when i was younger. It helped me build my childhood. Then i completely forgot about the older i got. Then i started humming it in my head and then realised that this was my favourite song and then i tried looking for it and found it. Yay.
That's what the person who kidnapped me told me after he locked me in his basement. Talked about demons finding me and him always being able to track me down if he ever lost me and that he was "gonna make this place my home". It was a traumatic experience
I've been searching for this song for like 6 or 7 years...I remember watching the Olympics in 2012 and there was a comercial with this song in it and I instantly loved it, then like 2 years later I heard it again and I still didnt know the song name, it was rare for me to find this song like that and then I worried I wouldn't hear it again, then like another 2 or 3 years passed and I heard it again, I decided to search it up by typing in the "ohhhhoahhoahhoahh" part😂 but I didnt find it, I almost gave up my search, then today I decided to type in "oh oah oh" then I found a video that was named "pop songs but only the 'oh'" or sumthing like that, and in that video this song popped up and the name of it too,I just feel so happy, my search is done😁😊 Edit: for those of you telling me that I could have searched the lyrics well back then i only got to hear the ohoah part for sum reason. I never really heard the lyrics and back then I didn’t really have wifi to search it up. One more thing is that there are a lot of wholesome replies and I wanna say thank you to all and also the huge amount of likes😅 thank you all very much😊
Omg same with me! I just found it today!! 😂😂 I remembered this as the 2012 Olympics song! I always hear this on and off the radio and while out shopping in stores, but don't know who sang it or the song name.
I’m leaving this here because I want it to be somewhere. My parents were divorced. And the last weekend I spent at my dad’s house before he died, he was practicing singing this song and playing it on the keyboard. I feel like this was his advice for how to do life without him. He’s alive in this song.
So sorry for your loss Minnie. Death is unnatural for humans and so when it happens we are perplexed and we grieve. The Bible holds out the happiest future for us all. Prayer gives comfort and strength. Be well.🌻💕
My condolences to you and your family as you grieve. Just know this, he is always in your heart. And, remember the line from the song, "I am going to make this place my home". That "place" for your father now is Heaven. He's there with God and always at "a place in your heart". May God be with you and keep you.
Stay strong, Friend! I wish you the best, your father lives on not just in this song but in your memory. I hope you find the same joy in this song as he probably did, maybe you might find a sort of peace in that. ❤️💕
Mine to I am 18 almost 19 I loved this song growing up I recently found it again It hits hard especially seince I lost so manny freinds so many family members thus last year also I recommend gone gone gone by him
My grandfather passed away fifty one years ago. He was a proud Canadian logger. My family couldn't afford a headstone. I bought him one today. I love you Grandpa. ❤
Aww, I feel you. My mom passed during COVID, due to lockdown and money issues, we never had a memorial service, a funeral, or a burial.....I have her ashes and that's it. I always wonder if it affects her soul or just mine to know she was kind of forgotten by everyone except me.
“Don’t pay no mind to the demons they fill you with fear.” So true! I never really understood that line as a kid but now that I’m older it makes complete sense.
In 2021 my father passed away from colon cancer. He used to play this song on his ukulele and sing all of the lyrics. This song brings a feeling of being safe and a sense of warmth. Thank you for this amazing song.
@@billyc768 So sorry for your recent loss. Hang in there and take one day at a time. Stay patient with yourself and your personal grieving process. If it might help to hear some encouragement, then read below. It's about the grief journey I started in 2016. The deepest sorrow of losing a parent abates slowly over months, then years. You will eventually be able to live a new reality missing him suddenly at times and also happily appreciating his impact on your life. The second year won't be as painful as the first months, so take courage that it gets easier in time. Work your grief out your own unique way. You will know when you get there which methods you want to take. Try not to hurt others, but also do not ask their permission to go through grief the way you need to. Grief is your own private work. Remember to lean on those who love you once in a while. Get out and forget sometimes too - you will occasionally need those breaks. Your life will be both less and more, as in time you will change in some good ways. Your legitimate suffering will eventually cause you to grow stronger, like endurance training. For example you will reassess what's most important and understand others better. In the next few years, you will grow to realize your new place in the world. Be good to you and patient with you now as you endure the pain of initial drowning grief, shock, and paradigm shift that begins this long journey. I hope you are a little encouraged that it will get easier to carry with time. May God be with you, strengthen you, and comfort you.
This song reminds me of the feeling when you finally reach your Dr and you’re finally grounded. And everything feels real. You can breathe, walk, run, just feel everything as you wanted it to ever be.
Most nostalgic songs Fun- Some Nights Fun- we are young Ho Hey- the Lumineers Olw city- Fireflies Avicci- Wake me up Passenger- Let her go Gym class heroes- Stereo hearts American authors- best day of my life Pibull- Timber The black eyed peas- I’ve got a feeling Avicii- Hey brother Sam smith- Stay with me Lukas graham- 7 years Bastille- Pompeii OneRepublic- Counting Stars The wanted- Chasing the Sun Foster the People- Pumped Up Kicks Phillip Phillips- home M83- Outro (nostalgic even if you've never heard it)
Grew up with Phil. Went to church together. Best part of his fame is he still wears the Walmart style moccasins, saw him in Sam's not that long ago. Still got the shoes
Im brazilian living in nyc for 15 years … the first years was VERY hard … one day i found this music and it make me believe again … im an American - Brazilian girl very very proud or my journey and I DID INDEED made this place my home !!! God is GOOD !!!
this song makes me miss things i’ve never experienced. some kind of weird nostalgia. holy shit i did not expect this to get this many likes. thank you all so, so much!! :’)
Me right now: *Laying in my bed at midnight, singing this while, crying both happy and sad tears at the same time* RIP My room. My room has been flooded
"Home" by Phillip Phillips means more to me than I can tell you. We lost my little sister Feb. 2012. She was 36 years old. She had been watching Idol and mentioned Phillip to me as a good contender. My mom and I flew to North Carolina to see my sister before she was cremated. While in Carolina beach I bought a picture with the word Home written in sand. I fully believed then and now that my sister was now Home with Jesus. Fast forward to Phillip winning American Idol and playing his new song "Home" for the first time. This song warms my heart. Thank you for singing and recording it for all of us! Nichole from Wyoming.
Hold on, to me as we go As we roll down this unfamiliar road And although this wave is stringing us along Just know you’re not alone Cause I’m going to make this place your home Settle down, it'll all be clear Don't pay no mind to the demons They fill you with fear The trouble it might drag you down If you get lost, you can always be found Just know you’re not alone Cause I’m going to make this place your home Settle down, it'll all be clear Don't pay no mind to the demons They fill you with fear The trouble it might drag you down If you get lost, you can always be found Just know you’re not alone Cause I’m going to make this place your home
I could listen to this music one million times! It brings me back to myself! To my journey! To coming to US alone. To all struggles, to all strangers, to all challenges! But I did not pay attention to the demons, they wanted me to fear!!!!!! I loooooooooove this song I freaking looooove this song ! It talks to me every second , hoowwwww??? Howwwwww??? This is the song of my journey! Yes! That’s is it ! Thank you so much ! ❤
Yeah music nowadays aren't what they used to be that's why I use the "RU-vid time machine" to listen to classic songs such as this one! May these song never die and live in our hearts forever!
My fourth grade teacher made this our theme song for the year and would play it every single morning when we came in and right before we left. She recently passed and was a beautiful woman
Home isn't always a roof over your head. It's a place where you feel the most comfortable to be who you are. It doesn't have to be a person either. I think I've found my real home. It's the place I want to go to when I die.
@@Maria-si5ew I don't know but I think I've found mine and I feel safe for once in my life. Even though the last few months have been a living hell, they've also been the happiest I've ever been.
Me as well! I was just reminded of this song recently now that I’m about to enter my senior year. Wish you the best of luck for your senior year and adulthood!
Nostalgia has entered the chat But omg I remember being like 7-8 years old with an oldSamsung phone and listening to this song on the way home from my summer house in Iceland, ;-; I miss these types of songs
This song was my childhood, the song that if it would come on on the radio I would dance along to as a toddler. It was the first song I sung along to. I was 3 and knew every word of this song, I loved it! I still listen to it now, and still love it! It helps me escape back to when life was amazing! With the amount of comments here, most people probably won’t see this but this was my song and I was that kid.
You have no idea how much nostalgia this gave me once I heard it in the radio. It almost made me cry. This song is one of my comfort songs and I'm so glad I found it again. I almost forgot about it.
I just heard it on the radio too. They need to play it more. Was so heartfelt after all these years. I cranked it up and belted out the lyrics, window down in the city.
+EPIC Troller Music: Is my inspiration, the reason I wake up in the morning, lets me get rid of the demons lurking around every obstacle I face, lets me be me, music is the way I live, I share my personality through this ancient chant, I am who I am because of music
+EPIC Troller Next to Jesus Christ maybe. I used to be a sinner now my heart, my spark, my flame is filled with love for Jesus Christ and His Mother Mary. Pray the Rosary and seek Jesus and that's all you will need to get rid of the demons. It is a great song by the way.
My all time number 1 song of time....I am 74 years old and have been called an expert by Dick Clark of American Bandstand .my candidate is Phillip Phillips as the best.... because he is the best.
Every time I hear this song it makes me cry and takes me back when I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 6yrs ago. my husband played this song for me and told me it was going to be okay. I was scared but made me realize how amazing he is and we now been married for 14 yrs and have two great kids and a dog ;)
A few years ago my sister and I were adopted, and our mother plays this for us. I call it our family theme song ☺️ I love you mom and dad! Thank you for accepting us into your family, and for giving us a home we are safe and happy in ❤
I've been singing this song to our rescued foxhound for 8 years! she was totally shut down and 'filled with fear' and I'm 1000% happy to say 'we've made this place her home'!
9 years ago when me and my brother were adopted this song would ply on my radio as my adoptoive father tucked us in for bed and I had heard it for the first time since then at work and I just had tears rolling down my eyes thinking about it
This song has helped me through the worst of my depression for the past few years. It is the perfect reminder to me that no matter how alone or defeated I feel at the moment I will always have people there for me. My sister, my best friends, even my employees. I'm away from my home province but not alone nor homeless.
There is always someone scaling the same mountain....to the highest highs and lowest lows......sunshine always waits to break through any clouds of grey
Home is truly my FAVORITE song sung by Philip Philip, from day one til now 2023. I can listen to it all day long and still don’t get tire listening to it. I listen to hid CDS while I’m at home and while I’m driving among his other songs.
This song means a lot to me, when I used to get angry, feel alone, full of fear, I would practice on my punching bag till my knuckles bled. Now I see a higher purpose, and I should treat others nicely and make them feel at home so they don't go through and experience the same emotions I did.
I LOVE THIS SONG … I listen to it specially when I go far from my home to fix other homes and sleep on the construction sites…. I play it a lot until I feel at home ❤
🎼🦋🎼 When I see Canadian figure skater, Keegan Messing, doing this song for his free skate, l get goosebumps! ☺️🤗 beautiful, touching, inspirational! The audience goes wild when he skates this music! 2023---With love from Georgia USA 🇺🇸 🍑🍃
My mom passed 5 years ago... she loved rock music but I could never get into it and it made it really hard to connect over that stuff. One day I heard this song and I just started humming and singing it throughout the week and she asked me what I was singing so I showed her this song. She instantly loved it as much as I did and I was just so happy that we could share something so small. I miss her so much.
I'm sorry for your loss, but im glad you were able to find something to share with her. music is a great thing that can do wonders and its a passion i want to pursue for that reason. i hope you have great days with the people you cherish and make wonderful memories.
The first time I heard this song my husband played it for me. We were in the car. My daughter left for college. We also had just sold our home and were moving 200 miles away from my family and friends. I had lived in the same small town since I was 3. This song was perfect. I just cried.
This was my theme song for my beautiful cat Celeborn while he was with me. Now that he has been called home to Jesus, this song still fills me with love.
Kinda ironic that even though everyone's going on a nostalgia trip here, I'm just reminded how much better things have gotten for me since I first heard this song. Fixed a bunch of personal issues, graduated high school, stopped being a sociophobe, found an awesome group of friends, started college, and started getting along a LOT better with my family.
I first heard this song when it came out and I was real young then. I’m now 19 and after all these years I still remember as this was the first song to make me cry and fill me with wanderlust. This song is the reason I look for adventure and new experiences in life.
Heaven has been sending this song down to Earth. They are preparing the faithful to be calm during the cleansing that is upon us. As I was playing the song the Holy Spirit said that the demons mentioned in the song are the media. There are no real demons. ❤
I love this song very much. But it also has a special meaning for me. I was technically homeless after my career was outsourced and I lost my home and had to stay at a relative's house. She was kind to invite me, but she made no bones about not wanting me there. I got a job and saved my money, looking for an apartment so I could get out. But then this job was also outsourced, and on that day my car was totaled due to a patch of black ice. Months later, after recovering from back surgery, I had to find a place to live.. but I had no job or income, no housing references, and I was in my sixties .. I had bad credit due to multiple hospitalizations without insurance (because with every job loss I lost insurance coverage). All I had was my savings from the previous job. After a good cry, I began the search for an apartment, but the odds against me were stacked. I found one that "sparked joy", I wanted so much to live there.. but I thought it was crazy to try, so I gave up. But days later, in a moment of desperation, I mustered up every ounce of willpower and visualization technique, and went out and applied for that apartment. As I drove away after handing in my application and fee, I turned on the radio. "Home" was playing. .. "I'm gonna make this place your home" he sang. I smiled. I knew that it was a message from a higher source.. And yes, by some miracle, and against all odds, I got the apartment! 😊
Damn, that's tough. Glad you got your place. Outsourcing is sucky. Thats why I always tell the young ones to get into a TRADE like plumbing or whatever. No matter how bad it gets, everyone has to take a dump, so plumbers will always have work... or at least have a better chance than most. Even if they don't do it permanently, it's still good to know a trade as a backup plan.
I love how the comments are still alive after all these years. This song means so much to me, and no one ever understands how much. This song has got me through some of the hardest times I’ve had and has been my favourite song for 9 years now.
This song i take it as a christian song because no matter what your not alone because jesus will always be their and he will make heaven our home if we trust in him. No matter what demons we must face or what problems or sorrows you face trust in gods plan.
God speaks through songs as well. Can’t be too religious to just think God speaks one way. God can use anything he chooses to get a message across to his people. This was one of the songs for me. Of course I’m not talking bout demonic music. But you can’t limit God.
I remember as a kid I had a CD player and I had one of his cds that I would play on repeat multiple times a day. I just recently heard this song again, lots and lots of nostalgia behind it :)
I have been listing to this song since I was 3 years old. I was so sad whwn I grew up and couldnt find it because I knew it as the oh song, singing it with my mom. I had just recently found it again and I feel closer to my home town than ever before. I moved all the way out to GA when I was 8 and was terribly sad and missed home. This song reminds me of my home up in Portsmouth VA. I miss all my friends and family that live there and this songs helps bring back memories.
