I was born July 4 1973, was an only son, my mom passed away July 15 1974. I have lived my life by this song like they wrote this from her to me, even though I don't remember her or her voice I picture her saying this to me through them. Seen Shinedown do it live 7 times and I broke down in tears every time.

First time I’m checking your channel out. I really appreciate this. I can not even sing along with this song without breaking down and it’s my favorite song by LS. It was played at my older cousins funeral. One of the most genuine, caring people you would ever meet, died at 23. I watched his daddy stand over his casket, shirt soaking wet from tears, looking at his only son. His dad told him the same thing but he lived a little too fast. I was a 17 year old kid then. I’m 40 now and have taken this song to heart. I live for my family. I enjoy every moment with them. Tell your people that you love them everyday.

I’m 73 and the music in the 60’s - 70’s were so varied and Classic. Give CCR a try. Born on the Bayou, You put a Spell on Me, Heard it Thruogh the Grapevine…they had 7 #1 hits in 2 years.

Welcome to Southern Rock!!! They are soooooo good! I dedicated this song to my first son before I was even pregnant. Last year, at the age of 42, he got married. I walked him down the isle. He asked his step dad to be his best man and, he and I danced together to this song at his reception! I told him he found a good woman and found love. And, that I was so proud of him for being a simple man!! Thank you for reacting to this super special song!
