Haven't heard this in years but still love it ❤. A crazy story of synchronicity in my younger life involves this song..at 18 I was hell bent on joining the military so I could go to Iraq and fight a war,something I'd glorified as a kid. When I told my mom she told my uncle who was a Vietnam vet. He called me up one night and gave me essentially the same message as this song. You're young and need to live and BE young. He had been severely traumatized by his experience in Vietnam as a 19 year old and didn't want the same happening to me. I thought about what he said all week until the following Friday night when I heard this song for the first time at a party. Loved it and went home to download it after which I mustve listened 100 times in a row. I felt that God or the universe or something was speaking to me so I listened and changed my plans. This isn't meant to knock veterans its just my personal story.

God I love the energy. Sitting in my car crying. It’s so inspiring.❤❤❤❤

I love this song and band. I love the way they start off in the old van and then play a packed stadium of fans who sing along the whole time.

I just met Chad at SXSW this year at a hotel gig, seriously the most humble and down to Earth musician I've ever met not to mention a genius at that too. Amazing song.

This was my first concert ever. I've been to many many concerts in the days since, but there's something truly transcendent about the roar in the crowd when Chad plays the opening lick to this one.

Going to this concert was the best thing that has ever happened to me

dispatch = one of the best around

Isis Pierce m Billings Montana went to Santiago Dominican Republic in 04 and introduced me to this band. I guess that's why the biggest indy band ever!!! Thanks a lot Isis!

What an awesome day that was.

Awesome the little kid in red shirt bouncin around on dads shoulders reminds me of taking my 10 yr old when he was 2-3 to jam band festivals lol Rollin in the mud with my boy. Good times.

I just wish there were more people out there that recognized how great dispatch is.

Great show, great night... couldn't ask for anything better honestly.

They're a jam band (so yes rock in a broad sense) with heavy reggae and folk influences. They're kind of their own genre

the greatest live band I've seen, never seen a crowd get so into a show everyone sang every word to the old songs they played. then they hand an encore and covered sirens by the string cheese incident before doing a great version of time by pink floyd.

I was at this show, it was awesome!

One of the greatest bands

This is my favorite KZfaq video of all time

Great song, great crowd, wiwt, thanks for posting.

When we practice forgiveness, we are physically lighter on this planet. Something happens at 3:45 and I got to experience it irl at a Dispatch show...it changed my life.

love this song

Since RedBull started posting videos about Dispatch, i've been waiting for the day they upload 'The General' ... amazing song :)

Just saw them at AZ roots fest, awesome show! Love what they said!#FDT!

my fav song. love it

This must be heaven!

love dispatch. so glad they're back

increible!!!!

Recently did a school project on them in history of rock and roll, and used this song, i would have used this video if i had known it was on here...

for real!

The best of the best

I love it!!! 😍

Dispatch is BACK??? like if you love dispatch

This is how the song should have been recorded on the album... not that the album version isn't awesome.

inde rock funk reggae

Yep.

I want to be here!!!!!!!!!!

go now, you are forgiven. you got to be, got to be, got to be, got to be...

that smokeshow at 5:40....

they "left" in 2004... they were on a 7-hear hiatus (with the exception of Zimbabwe in 2007)

@1:35 Gary Cahill, is that you??

Underrated band. Shame they broke up

bros @ 1:37

6 minute mark Jersey pride.

cool

This is DISPATCH

who writes a song like this? this is Rolling Stone Top 50 ever. wtf son

I like this song with electric guitar, but acoustic, for once, sounds better to me.

Check out the video by "bamboo" a filipino band they covered the song pretty decent.. :)

Such a simpler time

They came down to my city and played at the garlicfest brad took my baby brother in stage

On*

someone please change the alternator belt on Blimpy please

steve-o from jackass at 1:37

Don't tell me how to live my life!

You got no time to lose go now you are forgiven. I'd tell every cadre the same

Damn lil dicky plays guitar too?

That drummer looks YIPPED up in the beginning lol

Slightly scooped

I've been looping kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qtx2abR5q5PYXaM.html endlessly. Such a cool riff and moshpit-like take on the song!

I think I am in love with the girl at 5:10

Mac Miller at 3:40??

they are awesome. but I think Chad needs better guitar tone. Otherwise great.

1:39 steve-o?

they're back?? they never left.

Who's on his shirt?

Dang, that audience was crawling with tail.

I'm 17 and i can't see this? How stupid.
