I appreciate this song more now that I'm in university and actually truly miss the old days with no worries and i imagine it'll only get harder as i get older...
Now that im in my twenties this song actually really hits home. It always stuck with me and I forgot about it for a long time.. And when I was feeling blue and nostalgic I listened to this and damn.. It really made me realize just how fast time goes by. When I hear this I just want to live in the moment and hug my friends. Getting older is so bitter-sweet.
this song reminds me of uni so much, and all the good times back then, and how every things changed now that im working...miss the old times so bad, its sometimes painful to even listen to this song~
_"Over and over and over again, we sat down for a minute, and grew up into men"_ If that line isn't a personification of life, then I don't know what is.
this song used to make me extremely sad when i was younger because i didnt want to grow up and forget my friends but its been a about 5 years since i last listened to this and i now realize that forgetting is part of grow up and you remember the good things no matter how old you get
I've spent a lot of time by myself realizing that people come and go and the memories along with them . now I'm ok with letting people and the memories go without feeling broken or whatever
I'm 46 and part of me still feels that way. What's really cool is when old friends reappear decades later, and all those memories come flooding back. Music is my time machine...
Man, hearing this song when i was like... 4 or 5, it was just a good tune. But now, being 19 & only getting older, just makes me realize how true these lyrics are. Talk about deep, man...
END OF GRADE 8. Reminds me so much of our crazy days and everything we used to do :) I miss middle school! I'm in grade 9 now.. wow.. everyone's changed alot since we graduated last June.
this song is the best, i have a best friend that lives down behind our old school, they tore it down., were all grown now with kids, , , , , to everyone with best memories toast to you.!
Omg same!!!! I moved to the US in 2010 then back to Canada in 2011 then back to the US in 2012 been here since and everytime I miss Canada I listen to them! 😭 I miss it all the time!!!
i have an unhealthy crush on Hedley and especially on Jake and Dave. You guys rock so much!!!!!!!!!! i saw you in concert in Hamilton, Ontario. You made me cry ;) thumbs up if you feel the same way!!!!
has anyone ever noticed how like 'woah' hedley lyrics are?????? i love i love i love i love listening to the words of their songs, espeically this one. with the burning car tires vs. changing car tires i find this song just perfect. and it's so catchy, just an overall good song
Well really as you said the burning car tires vs. changing car tires isn't that uncommon to do in music, many of the people who make the lyrics change just one word but keep the rest the same like that.
2008 I used to kill this back when I was in the 10th grade , now I can finally relate to it . 10 years out of high school as of next month wow time flys
This song just makes me think of how parents say life is short and all we wanted to be was older and then we all came to the realization that they were right and realizing how long it has been and how short it has felt to older people cherish your memories to the young make as many as you can now.
Moving away from my family and my friends and everything I know in 6 days. This song :( I wish I never grew up .. I was in such a rush and now I want it back
Right on, congratulations! That'll be a big change for sure, but a good adventure as well. My moms family is from Toronto and we used to go there quite a bit when we were kids. It's a pretty nice city and there are lots of beautiful beaches and cool places to visit and you'll have to go up in the CN Tower at least once.
I am going off to middle school this year and this song is so true. Dont forget and my friends and i will miss our school so much and i bet we will always hang out in the school field! :) :]
My friend took to to their concert bc they're my favourite band. Anyway, I cried when they played this song. I remember listening to this one repeat on my old ipod shuffle
omg we all grew up didn't we aha :) It's been 7 years since I first heard this song not quite understanding that one day this would all make perfect sense.
God.... This song is freaking awesome. I freaking love Hedley. I must be Hedley's biggest fan. I have tons of Hedley stuff and I've seen them live twice and met them once. Hedley is hands down one of my favourite bands.
Gonna use this song for graduation this year. Although I hate high school in general, I've made some pretty good memories. Probably gonna cry my eyes out on the last day.
Ever heard that song you heard every day, and were glad, then heard it years later, and instantly remembered back then, and no matter how dark, you smiled? Now I look back at who I was and realised how much I've changed. I'm picking up the phone and calling my friends to meet behind our old school..
I am an American but lately I have been listening to a LOT of Hedley. This is probably one of my favorite songs by them. It reminds me a lot of growing up and hanging out with my friends. Now, I'm a senior in high school looking at colleges... What I would give just to be able to go back for a little while and experience it all again!!
This song really is a good look on what life changes to be. We all wonder how we got somewhere. My friends and I still do meet ups every few years. The memories are overwhelming sometimes!
this song reminds me of my days in school where Id run outside to get to my favorite swing before someone else would, and collect rocks and play grounders with my friends
omg this makes me wanna cry .. because ive grown up with all my best friends and amazIng friends and all the memories we had im going to highschool next year and im moving im going to miss all the crazy shit i did with my best friend and all the things we planned on doing .. im going to miss everyone so much :'(
I still know the lyrics to this whole song. OMG They have so many great songs that never get old to me. Even their new albums still have at least 1 or 2 songs that remind me of their good old school songs. :)
Last night my friends and I all went to are old elementary school and we all began to sing this song it hard to believe will be going to highschool next year
I made the mistake of playing this song in class I had my headphones so no else heard it and I just started whimpering trying not to cry and everyone now thinks I have a mental condition now 😂
It means alot to some people to move on to different places. I'd had the best memories of my life so far in my middle school years. thumbs up if you agree.
Me and my sister were listening to this song and she was almost crying because the memories of our old school and our friends who we used to see ever day. Than we starting calling all the friends we had and planing a day to all hang out and go have a fire and just live like we once did
I miss you guys so much. grade 8 class of 2010. midnight hide and seek and crazy shiz and all the jokes we made and everything. when we used to just laugh and smile. when everything was alright
Just seen them in Edmonton last night and it was awesome!! I wasn't a huge Hedley fan (got my Mom tickets for Christmas) but it was seriously a great show :D
@KristinDawnDee A polar bear!?!? that's awesome!! I just get a big old yellow school bus (and it's igloos) but honestly, the music from most Canadian bands is much more real than most American music

You know you're Canadian when you realize how many times this song played on your radio and iPod when you were younger.
This is soooooo true

AWMdiva499 true, i never thought it as by hedley
AWMdiva499 I'm Canadian Too :)
+AWMdiva499 oh man, i know exactly what you're talking about
I appreciate this song more now that I'm in university and actually truly miss the old days with no worries and i imagine it'll only get harder as i get older...
So true. I really miss HS and my friends. Uhh
Now that im in my twenties this song actually really hits home. It always stuck with me and I forgot about it for a long time.. And when I was feeling blue and nostalgic I listened to this and damn..

love it.
u can tell, this song is gonna be one of those classics 10 years from now.
was it a classic?
I sure think it was.
_"Over and over and over again, we sat down for a minute, and grew up into men"_
If that line isn't a personification of life, then I don't know what is.
this song used to make me extremely sad when i was younger because i didnt want to grow up and forget my friends but its been a about 5 years since i last listened to this and i now realize that forgetting is part of grow up and you remember the good things no matter how old you get
Emma McConnachie Jesus, right in the feels bro
Man you got me.
And now your comment is 7 years old. Time flies.
I've spent a lot of time by myself realizing that people come and go and the memories along with them . now I'm ok with letting people and the memories go without feeling broken or whatever
I'm 46 and part of me still feels that way. What's really cool is when old friends reappear decades later, and all those memories come flooding back. Music is my time machine...

This song always sends me on the biggest feels-trip.
seeing them in edmonton tonight ... can't wait!
This is making me nostalgic

I miss middle school! I'm in grade 9 now..

Geez i have been finding this song for a few weeks!!! What a great song!!! i love the lead!!! awesome song... awesome lyrics!!! Perfect!
"Don't close your eyes or we'll fade...away." My favourite part of the song

My cousin Healy got kissed on st Patricks day by healdy
Kristen Burke That's pretty lucky :O

I listened to this song in 2010 after moving to the US because i missed all the good times I had in Canada.

Omg same!!!! I moved to the US in 2010 then back to Canada in 2011 then back to the US in 2012 been here since and everytime I miss Canada I listen to them! 😭 I miss it all the time!!!

This song is beautiful. It makes me cry most of the times I listen to it. Last year of High School.

How about no.
+Kamryn Minors don't worry I think most of there songs were marinas trench and they were hedley
Their song, Arcadia, reminds me of Old School. Not actually sure the order they came out, but that's the order I listened to them.

@KristinDawnDee A polar bear!?!? that's awesome!! I just get a big old yellow school bus (and it's igloos) but honestly, the music from most Canadian bands is much more real than most American music
