This is one of the most beautiful songs ever wrote! My interpretation of this song is: be your best friend, believe and love yourself, go out of this hole you are and start give yourself the credit you deserve, Know you and what you are capable of! Don’t wait for other people validate you!
Listening to this on my late stepfather's birthday .. such a great man he was , ordinary hardworking guy who made many sacrifices for us and never complained to the end of his days .. miss him and will never forget him
"I'll be your friend, your other brother, another love to come and comfort you"... how beautiful. I did this for my brother when he was in the hospital for several months. I always think how sweet a person mr Mraz must be for his friend who was going through such a horrible illness.
this song reminds me of how much each and every friend i’ve had has helped me grow into the person i am now, has helped me love myself truly, good friends or bad, they made me, me.
I am so glad my boyfriend introduced me to Jason Mraz!!! I had never heard of him until a few months ago, and I have yet to hear a song of his that I don't like! This man is amazing!! His lyrics are so in depth and in touch!! Thanks Jason for sharing your talent with the world!!!
This song always reminds me of a close family friend that passed away from cancer a few years ago, it helps me overcome any sadness and remember to take control... I love you Kayleigh, I know you're happy wherever you are but I wish you didn't have to go so soon
I attended Love Of Jesus this afternoon.after the session there is a healing session.I lift up myself and your physical and emotional ailments because I've seen post on sickness.
awesome beautiful lyrics if i had one wish it would be for every person in the world to know who they are. that would be paradise, how could it not. and music and lyrics like this is the helping to move people towards that place of knowing. I do so love Jason mraz, never stop the messages in your songs. the world needs to hear, i need all u have to remind me when i forget who i am.
Been listening to Jason Mraz these days just coz it is often being recommended. And i never knew i needed his songs at this phase of my lifetime. Aaaa Jasoooon❤
Lots of people saying what the song is about, but even if Mraz wrote it about himself, someone else, god, etc it doesn't matter. Music is how we interpret it in our lives. I love Mraz!!!!
Love yourself by not allowing people who is unfortunately our dear friend to hurt us. Leave them. Dont worry with those people who didnt even bother to worry about you. You gotta be strong emotionally.
Singing this to my infant daughter, gotta love a song with wisdom, beauty, and so much love for another 💞 any rec's for other songs with similar qualities lemme know! Beats a nursery rhyme any day
Shut the negative out and focus on a life of your very own. Find a purpose and be of service to whatever you hold dear to your heart. The lonely feeling will go away if you find that purpose. Self-worth is the cure to every bad habbit. You can have it. Just find it.
In a Dec 8th 05 interview with The Virginian-Pilot Jason responed this way to the song: " Q. Are you aware you have a massive gay following? A. I did have an idea, and I dig that. A lot of my friends are gay - my roommate, my manager. The last song on my album, “Song for a Friend,” was written for my roommate, Jerry. I felt it might be a great idea. … There’s always love songs for women, but there should also be a love song for two bros, whether or not you’re gay. I’ve always tried to be open to all things. So it doesn’t surprise me that the gay community digs the mu-sac , ’cause I am friends with the gay community. "
Looking back on this song after Mraz came out as bisexual, it seems like beyond describing a friendship, he was inching toward expressing his sexuality and love for this friend. Whether that's totally true or not, this is a beautiful song that still hits so hard.
Δεν έχω ξανακούσει ομορφότερο τραγούδι για τη φιλία.. Πραγματικά απίστευτο.. Το αφιερώνω στον ένα, μοναδικό και αγαπημένο αδερφό μου, τον Στέλιο..!!!!!! Σ'ευχαριστώ για όλα...!!!! :))
i dont have BEST FRIEND anymore..they all betrayed me and stab behind my back..sweet speaking in front of me..now im alone, but im more relax without ppl around messing with my life..bit lonely but im loving it..no more worries for others who take my friendship for granted!!!
I know what that's like. In my 17 years of life, i have had 4 people who i could call best friend and only 1 of them was real, but we no longer talk, because life took us in different directions. Be your own best friend.
So I met a woman 17 years my senior and we became fast friends. It was so weird how it happen. She became first like a sister than like a mom. She welcomed me into her family as well. I moved away now I think back on the times we hung out and am grateful for the times. She will always be my bestie.
I think this song can speak out in lots of different way . For a friend , whose we cared . i think Jason's own is about a friend who is more than a friend , in a undefined way.... for myself, it's about loving deeply a best friend secretly , he left me , alone... and lost everything....revealed many terrifying truths ... I was a replacer . I was not a thing at all . And most of all , He secretly loved a friend like I did ...... Told me that he won't define a best friend , and every "friend" is equal.....
Climb up over the top, survey the state of the soul You got to find out for yourself whether or not you're truly trying Why not give it a shot? Shake it, take control Inevitably wind up, finding for yourself all the strengths that you have inside of you

6..
Good for you mate
Certainly 2 that value more than many superficial friends
5 years ago this was his first song I heard ,after that he become my favorite singer, his songs,happy or sad are what all music should sound like...
Listening to this on my late stepfather's birthday .. such a great man he was , ordinary hardworking guy who made many sacrifices for us and never complained to the end of his days .. miss him and will never forget him
Finally there's a meaningful song without sex,drugs or something
Sex is a natural expression of love how do you think you were born
Dc insta In my opinion, love songs and sexual songs such as anaconda song, are different
+Sin Yin Liu agreed Sin Yin Liu
+Sin Yin Liu exactly! finally songs with out any sort of degradation or anything similar. One of the best true and humble music artist :)
u should hear tri druzja thats a song but a russian one its pretty good
:) This is my favorite song by him. His new stuff is cute, but... I really think he sings his heart out here.
One day a friend of mine showed me this song saying he feel what the song says about me. When I heard it I almost cried... Beautiful song.
Gay.
Jey Att It seems you dont have good friends. I feel sad about u man...
Alex Cano Mine have a sense of humor. :)
same :) I love this song even though it's not the type of music I usually listen to
This song picked me up when I felt so down.. Thanks Jason

One of the greatest songs...so glad it never got over-played.
I miss too much a friend. Now, we are strangers but... with memories.
How are u today?
@@luannycristina841 fine
Marvelous, gorgeous, absolutely good lyrics, beat, and voice, the fact that it's somehow relateable, that means it just really good.
so True you gotta love you and look inside of the strenght you have....we often try to help other find themselves and loose ourselves in the process.

Throughly loved this song! Beautiful from start to finish, blew me away. No, Thank you!
Its so hard to turn this song off after starting it
After 4:53 I just get goosebumps every time I hear this song. The instruments are so hypnotizing and groundbreaking.

the amount of friendzoned in this video is too damn high!
Jason Mraz is a true inspiration. He inspires me and give a thumbs up if he inspires you.
great.......it`s make me feel....like....is only me and my sweet friend...in this world!....amazing
I absolutely love this song speaks very true to the heart
Page 365 of 365. Thankyou for all the lessons. I'm ready to close my book.
I use to hear this song before to sleep, it's so calm and has a beautiful message of auto confidence and love yourself
my dog, was my best friend, he waa my everything, i had him for 4 years , unfortunately i lost him today
Jason wrotte this song for himself.. there is no better friend than yourself when you reach maturity and total independence.
***** thats is the truth no matter what happens we will always need the help off others and there attention
for himself? Are you sure? That would be wonderful
jaime garcia There’s no such thing as total independence; we all have something or someone to answer to.

You should read a story called The Black Cat by Edgar Allan Poe.
I'm sure you'd connect with the narrator.

Climb up over the top, survey the state of the soul
You got to find out for yourself whether or not you're truly trying
Why not give it a shot? Shake it, take control
Inevitably wind up, finding for yourself all the strengths that you have inside of you
This song. My eyes are misty. Jason Mraz, you are one of my heros.
THIS is what you call Music.
glad to see other people appreciate all types of music most of my friends that like mraz dont like lloyd

Jody Wade me too.....
crying doesn't make a man less manly than what he is, as long as they are tears spilled wisely.
