Who's still watching this beautiful masterpiece in 2024

“Nobody is ugly, we just live in a very judgmental society” -Kim Namjoon BTS

I cry every time I listen to this song. I'm a man, 61 years old, and this speaks to my child within , my little Kevin who never felt good enough. I'm so grateful for this song. I just watched the video for the first time and it hit me even harder. Bravo.

This made me tear up. I sent it to my daughter in law. She never thinks she is enough but I always tell her what an amazing woman and mom she is. Thank you for this song.

One month ago on the 12 of November I was done trying to be pretty, it was so hard and I still got bullied. I had the pills in my hand. I wanted to listen to a song right before I took my life. I went on KZfaq and this song popped up. I clicked on it and while I was writing my suicide note I really listened to the song. I crumpled up the note. I threw away the pills. This song saved a life. Thank you. I listen to this song every day to help me stay confident and to keep the bullying away. (:

I think this song is such an important message to young girls nowadays.

I heard this song for the first time tonight and it brought me to tears. I'm a father of a 12 year old boy that is going through a lot of "body" issues, for lack of a better word. This video/song is such an incredibly powerful voice to explain something I've been trying to convey for years.

My mom used to play this song for me when I was younger to show me that i don't need to change myself for the appeal of others Edit: quit trauma dumping, there’s a difference between sharing experiences and sharing for the pity of others

7 years later, if you're watching this, you're a legend.

9 years later and this message is still needing to be heard. It's getting worse still. Please if you're reading this, remember: you ARE enough for the ones who truly matter. Love yourself and give yourself grace.

I just listened to this song last night and it speaks very much my situation now I believe in myself and want to listen to that little voice in my heart that says “everything is ok don’t try hard to change things that don’t serve me” ❤

It's 2022 and still relevant . This song helps me so much to cope with social anxiety . I mean, look at us nowadays . Too much pressure from society and peers. To be 'perfect' or just like the material person they wanted. This song makes me burst out into tears and make me realize, " do i even like myself? "

It’s 2023 and it still feels that it’s new whenever I listen to this ❤ Lyrics that explains everything 👍

I am someone who has struggled with insecurities my whole life. I listen to this song whenever I feel like I need to remind myself that I don't need to try. Thank you!

Anyone 2024 may?

Take your Make up off Let your Hair down Take a breath Look into the mirror At yourself Don‘t you like you? ‚Cause I like you Love this part❤️❤️❤️

I almost forgot that this beautiful music exist in this world

Wow….I have 5 daughters and with the 2/3rd we listened to and sang along to Colbie Caillat, Michelle Branch and their like. This is a very touching video and song for it is what my wife and daughters sometimes feel they have to do. They are always enough the way they are. I wish they could feel and understand that. Love this song.

As a teenage female, I can relate to this statement. My parents always say “it not important, you can worry about your body appearance later”. But the thing is, I am starting to care about all the pimples, my cuts, my bruises, the list just goes on. I love the message to people (not just people who identify and female) can relate to.

One of the most underrated song :(

I don't understand some of these awful comments. Music like this actually helps people.

June 2024!!! I'm watching with my two beautiful daughters! This is a powerful song!!!

I remember when this song came out. I was around 13 years old and i remember crying to it. It actually helped my self-esteem in those times. So nearly a decade later, thanks Colbie Caillat!

I love how her as a celebrity did this. Not just make the other girls in the video. She put herself out there showing she really cares. She was willing to make her self vulnerable to MAKE A POINT

I remember how much I loved Colbie when she first got national exposure. Admittedly, I'm not very well tuned into the music scene, so I missed this gem, but I'm so glad to have rediscovered her voice and songwriting. I'll be embarrassing myself in the shower with this jam in rotation from now on. Great song, thanks for sharing. 😊

I'm here because of WaWa. This song was playing in WaWa, I never heard it before but I like it. Thanks for posting this song.

The most beautiful thing in a girl is her heart and her beautiful eyes.

me, listening to this song in 2014: *BAWLING MY EYES OUT* 😭😭😭 me, listening to this song in 2021: *STILL BAWLING MY EYES OUT* 😭😭😭

One of the most beautiful songs that make people as they are without resemblance between them, and each person has an advantage that differs from the other in style and method of choice without caring about the opinion of others, and this is very great

I don’t care if I’m a guy, but for someone who lost weight, worked out, and changed my image for someone, this song really hits me. I cried when I heard this song because it reminded me of my past self. I wanted to tell myself that I should be doing these things for myself, and that looks are not everything. Everyone who is going through self-image and self-worth issues really need to listen to this song

I always coated my face in makeup and cared what everyone thought and then I found out someone from my school was making fun of my instagram pictures and showing other people then blocked me so I couldn't talk to them and they are in a different class than me so I could never talk to them and I was so upset about some of the things they were saying and then I listened to this song and I starting crying this song makes me so happy and it is so encouraging I love it so much thank you Colbie Callat.!

I've been watching this beautiful piece of video for years ❤ I turn 65 yrs this year, & haven't worn make up for 40 years I'm growing older gracefully

This is one of the most beautiful songs in existence.❤ It makes me tear up every time I listen to it, and makes me look into the mirror and smile. 😌

So many positive songs are coming out. Plz make more.

This and scars to the Beautiful are one of the most beautiful songs

I completely forgot about this song but I saw TWICE in London tonight and Dahyun’s cover was so BEAUTIFUL‼️‼️❤️ Such a pretty song!

I've overcome my appearance anxiety, and can finally fully embrace my looking now. Suffering from self-criticism and take others' mocking too seriously can really distort one's personality, and destroy his or her mental condition. When I was listening to this song, I couldn't help but shed tears. Yeah, knowing how to cherish, trust and rely on ourselves is a valuable ability. Others' opinions and suggestions should only be viewed as recommendation, it's me that decide to take it or not, and only I can define the value of those words. Sincerely, I wish myself had got this point earlier.

you don't HAVE to try. you CAN if you WANT to, but it's not an OBLIGATION. Far out, some people are just looking into this lovely genuine message wayyy to much.

This song inspires me so much. I look like a potato and I'm proud!! 😂😭

❤ from the core of my heart.. This song is really inspiring! It's 2023 & it will never get old!

world needs more songs like this

I was bullied because of having dark skin, i moved to canada. i lived in Philippines. People we’re judging me for the way i look. but this song inspires me to try to get up and dont let the people stop me from being who i am 😊

I think it's sad that so many people are missing the point. The message isn't that you shouldn't try at all in life. It's that you shouldn't try to be someone you're not, or feel the need to cover up and add fake things in order to feel like you're beautiful. If you ask a lot of women, they're going to tell you that they don't feel pretty without makeup, or hair extensions, or fancy clothing, or fake nails, or a plethora of other things that society deems necessary for a woman to be considered attractive. THAT is what this video is addressing. It's not saying "Don't exercise!", "Don't work hard in life!", or "Don't try to be the best person you can be!" It's saying "Love the skin you're in without needing all of the additives to make yourself feel pretty! You're beautiful as you are, and the only approval you should need to feel attractive, is your own!" The point is that women should love themselves naturally, and feel comfortable not having to put on a different face in order for the world to accept them.

This is 2023, and it feels this song is speaking to me. I'm 23 and all my life, have been constantly in doubt of myself. My self esteem is low. Thank you for this song

Love brought me hear...❤ Wow.. 9 years.. big up everyone watching this in 2024.. Kenya to the world

The last part "Do you like you? Cuz I like you. " Got me. I may only be in middle school but people can be really mean. I have self confidence issues and this song helps so thank you for that

Kudos to these women for their honesty and vulnerability.

This is gold! I have aspergers and this song is what I need to listen to on repeat. In fact it's what every girl of every age needs to listen to until it sinks in. Powerful message!

WE ALL HAVE BEAUTY THAT WE CAN'T SEE , SOMEONE THINKS YOUR AMAZING WITHOUT YOU KNOWING IT!!!!!!!!!

2018. Every time I listen to this song, right after, I walk up to my mirror and say 'I like you.' To all of you, love yourself. Because you are unique and beautiful. Without makeup, even with that messy hair of yours. You're beautiful, always. Believe in yourself, dear. Don't you like you? Cause I like you. ❤️

whos here in 2024? 👇

This hits REALLY HARD. I've been planning surgeries like a nose job, BBL, and skin whitening, desperately seeking validation. I believed altering my appearance would make me worthy of love and not just a second option. These feelings cause from years of internalizing societal expectations and personal experiences of rejection. Societal pressures have amplified these insecurities, making me feel I need to change who I am to be loved. It's sparked my journey of self-discovery and healing, encouraging me to challenge the idea that my value depends on others' perceptions.

The most important question is "Do you like you?" This song and video is so beautiful!

It’s been 8 years. This song has finally blown up and got the recognition it deserved. More girls NEED to hear this song ❤

This song is THE MOST EMPOWERING song for our young girls and boys out here in this world❤️ It still makes me feel stronger from inside and out❤️

As a Kauai resident and a TWICE fan, I’m so glad Dahyun covered this song!

I'm here. I'm crying. I'm not feeling well. I'm a boy.

Why don't they do more songs and videos like these? I could say a lot more but that sentence is enough. Thank you Sylvie Sullivan

Beautiful & empowering song. Feeling very empathetic to those who struggle with self-esteem issues. Love yourself always!

Colbie Caillet is highly underrated for a early 2000’s country artist can’t believe she hasn’t won any awards

Listening in December 2022. This song has a really beautiful message! Glad I found it and listened to it..❤

Here we are, listening to a song that urges us not to hate ourselves, and we have people comparing these women. I WISH songs like these could change the world, but the fact is that people will be mean whether you're natural, dolled up, or something in between. You just have to do what the hell you want to do, and say screw everyone else. Want to be bare-faced and not comb your hair? Do it, and be super confident! Want to beat the hell out of your face and throw on a wig? Do it, and be super confident!

Now I'm crying. I can't it took me this long to see this. It was beautiful and hit so close to home especially in the world of today

I'd never even heard of this song before my 13 year old daughter told me she's doing her first contemporary solo to it. Awesome message and it's still resonating.

I didn't know about this song until I saw it on Facebook reels and I'm loving it 😩. She sang it 8 years ago but the lyrics talks about what's happening now.

Message is: be yourself no matter what you look like or act like, just be you

This artist will always have my heart, for the simple fact that she deserves everything she has worked hard for.

All the people in this video are so beautiful. I am in my late 50s and just in the last few years have started to accept myself. My "flaws" in how I look and what I do and have done with my life is all shown through those imperfections I have always tried so hard to change.

I can relate to this song so well... I recently changed friend groups a few weeks ago... I was constantly left out and judged for the way I was... they were all cheerleaders and they all had boyfriends... I was not a cheerleader and I do not have a boyfiends ( don't belive in dating in middle school)... I used to be over weight and got made fun for it... I knew I had to loose weight and I lost 30 pounds by eating healthier and exercising more... when school started this year again I was judge by my "friends"... they told me I was to skinny and I finally realized they were jealous that the boys would talk to me instead of them ... I was happy with myself and was much more active in sport ( I play softball and soccer) I was an overall better athelete... one day I coudnt take the bullying or drama any more... I switched friend groups an snow am in my happy place.. I can now talk to any one and my stress has gone down... I am no longer judged and am living life to the fullest... I wouldn't be who I am if I did not have friends who love me just the way I am❤😉

This song really touches my heart a lot and to others too just always love yourself and do you.

TWICE's Dahyun brought me here with her cover. Thank you for such a meaningful song, Colbie. Listening in 2024 🎶

A very fitting song to let all women know they don’t need to try to look good to be liked. Instead you need to make your heart feel good about yourself no matter how you look.❤

It's 2023! I never knew this song is 8yrs old😮 it feels so good to hear❤

This song had me in tears after years of hating myself and being self conscious and trying to change myself. Shocking how much a song can influence you. Honestly a absolutely amazing song for anyone struggling

I am an Senegalese people and I juste came to discover this song and I love it so much ❤ thank you for your message 🙏🏽☺️💪🏽

Flawlessly beautiful. Inspiring in every way! And, no she is not saying "You can't wear make-up!" She's saying simply be you. That if you do wear make-up, wear it because you want to not because you feel like you have to. That being said, all you ladies and gentlemen that do wear make-up... Just know that you are just as gorgeous without it :)

I usually call my self ugly but listening to this makes me feel pretty

My Bias brought me here. Sarangheyo Kim Dahyun!

I don't know why I never heard this song ever before. It's such a powerful song which was ahead if it's time then. It's today's need that this be heard by all, irrespective of anything.

This song prevented me from my suicide attempt. Now i'm 3 months clean!!!!

This song has made me realize that I shouldn't do my make up and hair for the people around me but for myself. I always gets comments as in: "Who are you trying to impress." And my answer will always be the same; "Me."

I just discovered this song for the first time and had to immediately look it up! It's so beautiful and lovely!

😢😢😢😢 you are the best I'm sure everyone's happy that you exist thank you for for this it really means a lot to me so thank you for for support thank you very much we are all happy that you exist and you are the light of our time is really means a lot

Make-up can be fun, but every girl and woman needs to know that they are more beautiful than any eye can see, because the most incredible beauty come from the heart:

Just take a moment to go to the mirror. What do you see? Many people start picking out their flaws. Instead, pick out a flaw you think you have but list why you like that thing. Personally I hate my eyes because they're boring and dull. Instead say you like that thing about you; I love my eyes, people say they sparkle. Feel beautiful, you deserve to

I'm watching it in 2024. Although the song is 9 years old, it's new to me. Listening to this song gives me confidence

The most critical point is that you like yourself

I've always judged myself so much. I can't post a picture without thinking about it for an hour and then taking it down for any single flaw that I find. I can't seem to accept myself for who I am. I thought that if I tried harder on my looks I would feel better but I don't. I also worry so much about what people think of me, my friends try to make me feel better but it doesn't help. I feel so annoyed of myself and hate how I hurt my mom because I feel this way. People do compliment me but I can never believe them , it is so hard. I hate how I have never talked to a guy and it's stupid but I care. Not a single one. I know it shouldn't make me feel ugly but it does. I spread positivity to others and try to make everyone feel happy and I feel dumb because I can't even do that for myself. 2018- Wow I thought my comment would get lost among the rest, but I received so many positive responses. Thank you so much, people like you all make the world a better place. For those who mentioned they feel the same, remember you don’t have to try ! It’s honestly still difficult to accept my flaws but I’m doing much better than before. Please remember that you’re all so wonderful and beautiful. It may be hard to accept it , but I promise you that you are. 💛

As a grown man, with two young daughters, and a beautiful wife, I think every single one of these women look so much more beautiful as themselves. I LOVE that my wife doesn't do tons of makeup and stuff. I've had girlfriends that did before, and now that I've been with my wife for 10+ years, I'm so glad she's not like that. I love her natural beauty and hair. Men need to stop wanting airbrushed, fake women, and recognize the Goddesses standing in front of them for what they are.

9 years later,if you're watching this, you're a legend ❤😊

They don't make songs like this anymore... 😭🌊

I have absolutely no affinity for comparison.I love me just the way I am and I have no desire to be like anyone‼️ Someone will call it arrogance, but I call it self nurturing. 🙌💕 How can you love others when you don't self nurture??

I dont even know when am crying thank you

my crush told me I was ugly and I didn't take it well and this song inspired me to get on with life and forget what he said cause I know im beautiful

Absolutely mindblowing.I thought good music is dead but no this song proves that good music is still out there 💜👏

This may be a girl's song.. but this is super motivation for anyone who ever think they don't deserve something or someone in life... From one of my favorite artist Colbie Caillat

I LOVE THIS VIDEO its amazing and i just cant even explain my feelings
