The old days weren’t better, we just remember the good things because of nostalgia, so don’t get stuck on the past, focus on now and the future, you can do it
@@BulgingRedRocket Although this is case to case scenario and it possibly could have been better for you. You are objectively subconciously very biased in your memories of the past. Were you to go back and live a month in the past and nostalgia **was not included**, you would remember all the negatives
besides, my future looks wayyy more fun than my past. Sure, i got some fun moments, but it was definately not as fun as u might remember. At least u cant always predict the future, thats wut makes it wayyy more exciting
In 4th grade my teacher (my fav teacher of all time btw) had this speaker in her classroom and she used to play this playlist all the time it had like about 10 songs, this song was on it and sometimes in the mornings before school started we would go to front entrance of the school with the speaker and “perform” as a class for the students walking in. It was a lot of fun and I know every single word to this song because of my 4th grade teacher🫶🏾🫶🏾
My year three teacher, one from my new school, used to play this along with some other songs in the classroom while we were cleaning up. For some reason I’d always feel a connection to it. 2 - 3 years later, still getting goosebumps.
I was in 5th grade when this song came out, my life was horrible back then but music was something that always made me smile :) I don't miss those years but I'll always miss so many songs that marked my pre-teens and teenagers years. Life before 2020 definitely had another glow
Lyrics: Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep Dreaming about the things that we could be But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars" Yeah, we'll be counting stars I see this life, like a swinging vine Swing my heart across the line And in my face is flashing signs Seek it out and ye shall find Old, but I'm not that old Young, but I'm not that bold And I don't think the world is sold On just doing what we're told I feel something so right Doing the wrong thing And I feel something so wrong Doing the right thing I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie Everything that kills me makes me feel alive Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep Dreaming about the things that we could be But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars" Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep Dreaming about the things we could be But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars" Yeah, yeah I feel your love, and I feel it burn Down this river, every turn Hope is our four-letter word Make that money, watch it burn Old, but I'm not that old Young, but I'm not that bold And I don't think the world is sold On just doing what we're told And I feel something so wrong Doing the right thing I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep Dreaming about the things that we could be But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars" Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep Dreaming about the things that we could be But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars" Oh, take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned Everything that kills me makes me feel alive Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep Dreaming about the things that we could be But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars" Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep Dreaming about the things that we could be But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars" Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
i remember the first time I listened to this song, it was during the summer holidays and my cousin had come to visit. He played this song and I couldn't stop replaying their music video. My cousin and I haven't spoken in years now because he moved farther away but we're still fond of each other, I know that. This song has had such an impact on me.
2013. One hell of a year for me. The year I moved across the country. In a state I didn’t know and around ppl who didn’t want to associate with me. Little 11 year old me stuck it out tho. Where my love for band started, especially for percussion. So many good, bad, and ugly memories with this song. Love it nonetheless.
I remember when you could listen to the songs and not know the meaning behind them but now even as 11 years old you still get that stress and pain that you know you shouldn’t have a such a young age but it’s surreal to remember when it was simple
i miss the old days so so much, when we could just have fun not worry abt school boys periods (if ur a girl lmao) everything was so simple so my things have changed, people getting depressed and upset. Social media, weird guys. breakups. the word we live in now is awful
@@xenxkisu imo the world is getting worse because of the generations before us, genZ is a generation of change even if you support that change or not, my generation just wants to live life like how it was promised to us, growing old experiencing life to the fullest and not worry about our planet dying during our lifetime or suffer under the laws the older generations have made for us
I really connect with this song. I remember the day I gathered my courage to talk to my crush. We were classmates. We both were quiet in class. So I reached out to her at insta. We talked for a whole night about us, what we like and all those things. She was a huge fan of OneRepublic. Time passes by and we didn't know that it was 4 in the morning. We talked all night. Then we had to attend our classes so I asked her out for a walk. Our classes were at 6 am in the morning but to spend some quality time together we met at 4:30 am, one and a half hours ago. We walked listening to this (counting stars) in my mobile where one end of earphones was in mine ear and another one was with her. We used to talk a lot but when we met, words didn't come out of our mouths. Every time we used to walk silently listening to this song. Suddenly everything changed, she moved out of college and we hardly used to talk after she moved out. Both of our feelings were kept unsaid. If everything had gone well then she and I would have done same as in thumbnail while it rained out here. Today is feb14 and I'm recalling all those moments with her.
@@paudelaayush_ nah bro reach out, cant leave me on a cliffhanger with the college move out. Reach out, ask her how she feelin, take ur chances or u gon regret it
@@paudelaayush_ bro honestly even if it turns out for the worst, at the very least you tried and won't live with the regret of not even talking to her (personally the same thing kind of happened to me and although things didn't work out in my life, I'm still glad I reached out and had a relationship even if it was for a short time) Point it just do it man, take the risk and if it does end up working out you'll be so glad you did it.
The old days were better for some because it was time when we were young and stress free, a time when people aren’t here with us now we’re alive and thriving adding to the memories that we hold on to now. It was a simpler time that we associate with songs like these. So the future is great and something to look forward too, but the past is what made us who we are ❤️
I remember they played this in a bday of a friend, this bday was so special to me even tho I’m not close w that friend bcz it was the bday I broke my social anxiety. In this bday I made 5+ new friends which was vv unfamiliar to me. We all danced to this song and I felt so safe. This song will 4ever be special 🫶🏽
independente de quando ou quantas vezes eu ouço, eu sempre sinto arrepios e uma sensação forte de tristeza, alegria, euforia, calmaria e saudade. Me sinto de volta no passado, me sinto dentro das lembranças naquele lugar
This song brings this feeling inside me that I really can’t explain but it’s really deep nostalgia x it kind of makes me want to cry when I get the feeling that I’ll never get to experience again . No one makes songs like this that just hit the nostalgia wave anymore
This was my favourite song and was my comfort song at one point this song was a big part of my life when I was in primary and i’m now 16 turning 17 this year in December on the 31 and this song will forever be a song I will never forget or ever stop loving ❤❤
music brings back the past, I always cry with older songs like 2011-2016 i wish i could get them back. They were so simple and everyone wasnt on their phones. Now you look around and everyone is. "Nothing lasts forever" Take advantange of your life and oppuntities !!!!!!!!!!!! >3
i love this song it makes me think of my childhood and my young love now here i am 13 years old (still a kid at heart) and i love this song and i always will it never gets old my young love was like we would talk about our plains and future. i just ughhhh this song is my life is my fav song
Me and my brother when we were little. Hearing this song singing without understanding just feeling the vibe. Not giving a shit about anything. Yeah I miss those days
remember those days when.. bananas were bananas peaches were peaches cherries were cherries eggplants were eggplants melons were melons daddy was normal so was mommy don’t y’all miss those days too?
