"Wanna make a change right here right now Wanna live a life like you somehow Wanna make your sacrifice worthwhile" Thank you Yellowcard. I've played 'Believe' countless of times and honestly, it's the only song that brought tears to my eyes and gives me hope each and every time I listen to it.
Never knew that they made this as a single to send out to the first responders from 9/11, I always knew that it was about 9/11 but to hear that as someone in fire/ems and public safety communications that my favorite band of all time took time out of their lives to send this to the first responders just blows me away at how humble they are.

I just saw them 2 days ago and when they played this song... i was just baffled by the emotion that they brought to the stage and the power they had over the crowd. Towards the end of the song people started cheering and for 5 minutes we continued... after the song we all preceded to chant USA for another 5 minutes and the lights were on and i just looked around at that moment to see EVERYONE! just cheering and to see everyone so joined together and unified it was amazing. I love Yellowcard!!!
I've seen Yellowcard in concert a few times now and without fail, "Believe" is my favorite part of the show. The amount of positivity that comes from the crowd is amazing and one of the reasons I keep going back.
This song is like a spell. A positive spell. When I feel bad, this song magically appears in my head. "everthing is gonna be alright, be strong, believe.."
What's crazy is I was in college when this song came out. And honestly it didn't really hit home for me. Now that I've been a first responder for the past 17 years and rehearing the song, it hits home because I've lost friends on the job. No idea if they'll ever even see this comment but thank you guys.
