Be 50 soon. I have basically lived this song. Fell in love with a girl out of highschool that didn't work out for whatever reason. But, I will say this, I'm glad it didn't. I ended up marrying someone much better and I love her so much more than anyone else I was ever with. Just when you think life has sold you short. God shows up and reminds you who's in charge of this crazy world...
i understand . i ran away with this girl in the 80s numerous times . she broke my heart . i was a nice guy and girls feed off that they hurt you . not all though . i have been married 26 years and i am 50 . i have two boys who are grown and i am blessed . the Lord does give those blessings .
Thanks for sharing this. It's been more than 8 years since my high school love left me while I was in my first year in the service. It's still hard for me to get over her memory. I'm still reluctant to let it go.
I hear you... a girl i fell in love with probably still does'nt know it.... I thought i saw her a few years back.... still just stood there and wondered....
Thanks for the love❤️ and support you showered on me,it's been a wonderful year having fans like solidly behind me😊, this is my way of saying thank you🙏to the people who brought me this far.I hope you never stop listening to my music,you are very beautiful and you seem to be a very nice person❤️... Where are you supporting me from?
Thanks a lot for your lovely and support. Also for taking your precious time to support my uncle music career may almighty god continue to bless you and your family Amen 🙏
This song takes me back to when I lived in a small town, was 16, was chasing a girl, going to parties, sneaking out, and just living a childhood of wilderness and excitement I miss it all so much and I miss that girl so much thank you Eric church I love you
Thanks for sharing! I still have a little bit left of this crazy childhood. I also live in a small town! And I want to stay! But I might have to leave for a while. 😢. But I will definitely return. It’s crazy how our stories sound the exact same and that we both love this song
When I think of you, I think of 19 in San Diego, 22 in Naples, Italy, 23 in Athens, Greece....24 in Norfolk......and on and on......now, it will be 56 in Vegas. Yea, I still love you and it's always BEEN you.
Thanks, it's been hard but, it was my mistake for not marrying him.....Now 2 families later and several ex spouses, we will meet again. Funny, I am Not scared.....I guess because I KNOW that I love him and he loves me! That never changed!
i have a 17 year old brother who is special needs, he listen to this song everyday at least once. If there was a way to see how many of the views on this video was him, I would totally wanna know. He isn’t able to talk as well as everyone else but he sure does know every word to this song.
My brother passed away this past July 2013. This was one of his favorite songs. Maybe because when he was 17 I got my jeep and he helped my husband work on it. Idk. But I know he LOVED this song and now whenever I hear this song, 98% of the time when I hear it, I'm driving in my jeep so I'd like to think he's riding shotgun protecting me and my children. Love and miss you, Christian!! Xoxo
2023 and it's my first time hearing this song. I thought it was a new release. I might be 11 years late, but let me tell you, this is a perfect time in my life to hear it. Good heart music.
Yo cmnt should be on top rn but life gets hard nmw whaa you go threw but God will turn it around if you never doubt em keep yo head up & god will always be there if you don't think he is just keep jamminn too this song neva ages !!
I moved to Colorado, 2011, went through some hard times, I was a free lance photographer. After hopping around jobs, I took my camera and a portfolio I had built to a local camera shop, the owners name was Rich. It started as an interview, and turned into a conversation, he hired me on the spot, after a 3 hour conversation. Everyone else had been working for him for a minimum of 5 years. They all took me in like family. I was 22, had just packed up my life and left. This song played on his playlist for the store at least 3 times a day. I grew to hate it, I moved back to Seattle about 2015, Rich died in his sleep, due to an unknown reason at the time. My prior co workers contacted me and I broke down. I immediately bought a plane ticket, and a song I had not heard for years came on the radio. It was his favorite song. This song. Rich, I love you man. You took me in when I was young and stupid. You changed my life forever. A melody is really a memory.
That's the saddest comment I have seen, qnd have looked through comments on over 50 songs. I hope you qnd rich can have another three hour conversation in heaven.
Hey Eric if you are reading this I wanna say thank you. I use to listen to this song and watch the music video on tv at my great grandparents house when my mom was bad on drugs. You helped me through a terrible time in my life and your music and this song use to bring me so much light. Now I listen to it I can feel what I felt then and seen how much I have grown. Now I'm in the army and left that life behind. THANK YOU
And thank you for your service! The Armed Forces of the United States have pulled a lot of kids out of really bad situations and given them direction in their lives. My younger brother was one. He got out of an unhealthy situation at home, joined the Army, went through Ranger school. Then SERE. Then sniper training. In amongst all that, he married a wonderful woman, had two lovely daughters, and then got out. He now works for a small company in AZ, lives in a million dollar home, and enjoys the life he's built for himself.
Who is listening to this amazing song in 2024/2025 Edit:never had that many likes or replies on a comment before tysm 290 and 16 Edit 2 thanks for 415 likes and 24 comments also I have a TH-cam channel Edit 3 ty for 500 likes
I was 19 my pregnant girlfriend sleeping with her head on my chest as this song played in her living room. I miss you. I love you and our daughter. May those memories be forever.

I will never forget this song as long as I live. The first time I heard this song, I was 17 years old on a mountain view looking over Livermore, California in the middle of July. And I was in the passenger seat of my ex girlfriends Grand Cherokee. Whenever I hear this song, that image will always come to my mind. Great song.
Not sure if this comment will get noticed or not, but I was actually one of the kids running around somewhere in the background at 2:26. In fact, the garage scenes were taken a few doors down from where I lived, on the same street as the one Eric walks down in the video. It's been well over a decade, but man, what a night this was. Even seeing the music video now, it's a nostalgia bomb. To think that me along with some of the kids seen throughout the video have all grown up, moved away, or are busy doing their own things, it's crazy how time flies. My younger brother, the one who rode out of the garage at 1:41, he's all grown up and is about to graduate high school. A handful the kids I was running around with at 2:26, some of us are working now or are wrapping up college. A few of them moved away so I don't entirely know what they're doing now, but I hope they're doing well. Despite it being over a decade, I don't think this is a memory I'll ever forget. It's ironic how this is the melody I keep coming back to for a memory I will never forget.
I think this song right here can go under the category of most legendary memorable songs of all time. After you listen once, seems like you know every lyric, note, chord. Man this is great

After doing about five minutes of research, I found that this video was shot in Elgin Texas! So, to the small town of Elgin, THANK YOU! This song was written because of the love we have for America and places like yourself and the love we have for the amazing people that grow up in your small but I'm sure nurturing communities.
I remember when this came out and I had this song on repeat for hours and hours at night. I couldn't stop hearing different details in it every time, and it kept making me want to cry... This is one of the only songs that ever used to give me any sort of emotional response and to this day it still hits me the same way :)
I hated this song when it came out. Not because it was bad. But because every single station played it every other song. But now when I hear it. It takes me back. As the lyric goes. Melody sounds like a memory.
This is like my favorite songs of all time because when my mom and dad were still together, I would listen to this everyday and my dad would sing to it. It reminds me of my dad 💙 Edit: I also did like my own comment bc nobody else probably even cares so..
I care. That's a nice memory. Everyone has something or someone different they associate this song with and I think that's beautiful~ It's a wonderful song.
I first heard this song when I was 7 and to be completely I didn’t understand the meaning and lyrics. 11 years later I am now 18, I have graduated high school last year, started an electrical career, and play guitar. I cherish this song so much more. The girl that comes to mind when this song plays, makes me wonder if she feels the same way. I know god has his plan for me, whether thats me and her back together or never seeing her again. Funny how this song was just song that I liked to being one that I cherish on a different level. May god bless each and every one of you. Now I have a lot more music to go back to
Eric church doesn't care about what genre he is considered he just makes music that he likes which is why I like him he doesn't do it to be cool he does it because it's his thing
Exactly! He is not only one of the greatest artist of today but one of the greatest of all time, the emotion and passion he puts into his songs is unmatched
I’ve listened to Bruce Springsteen my entire life. I was introduced to him at 8 years old by my father, I listened to him my entire senior year on the train ride to and from school, I’ve been listening to him all through college. He’s been a mainstay in my life more than almost every friend but one. I love hearing tributes to him from other artists because it makes me realise how revered he is, not just by his adoring fans, but other artists too. He’s Americas favourite son, and the rest of the world loves him also!

“When you think about me, do you think about 17” I was 17 in 2002 & every time I here this song it takes me there! Little did I know, those memories would be worth more than Money can buy. 🤞🏾💙

I wish Americans would love their culture more. The beauty of what their country is and represents is just so wholesome and strong. I know Hollywood isn't a real representation but, the other 300 million, know you are loved!! ❤ 🇬🇧
For those who don't know: Bruce Springsteen is a man that helped rock and roll become what it is. Eric references many of his songs in this song. I'm on Fire, Born in the U.S.A., and Born to Run are a few I heard. I think I also heard Glory Days.
a year ago today (18th of January) I was dating a guy and he was obsessed with Eric Church well a year ago today he got ran off the road by a drunk driver and he didn't make it out and when ever I hear this song it brings me back to him. I will never forget that kid.
All hail Bruce Springsteen! It's refreshing to know that there artists out there, like Eric, who acknowledge greatness. Music today is such shit. This song kicks ass.
No country song makes my heart feel likes it's being squeezed as Springsteen does. It brings some of the best memories I can only wish to relive. Thank you Church!
This song makes me so nostalgic something I never even had. The best advice I can give to a young man is don't be afraid to make those memories. You're gonna wish you had them when you get older.
I am 83 yrs old! I will tell you this, this song had to be made from experience, Eric had to have lived it, to put a song together that speaks to all of us, WHAT GOOD MEMORIES COME TO MIND, YOU ARE THE BEST ERIC❤
To all my fellow PEOPLE'S out there starting a relationship and maintaining one this good vibes video is a great and written through song of how to treat each other to last!! Which should be what we are all looking for or not and if not please disregard!!! Great job Eric and Crew for Sharing!! 🙂🤗😎 Justsayin, what say u ?
When I first heard this song I was 17 and I had an old 99 jeep Cherokee. Living in the middle of the Appalachian mountains in a small town called Boone, North carolina. Riding the blueridge with my girlfriend, sitting around bonfires at parties in the woods with my gf and all my best friends sitting around, the happiness and care free life of being young. This song will always choke me up and will always be my favorite song of all time
@@angietortora9720 I know it's crazy! That's why I connect with him so much. I went and saw him in greensboro and he really put on a hell of a show because he said he was finally home. Gave me chills
Dude whoever that girl was in the first 10 seconds of the song, I just wanna reach through the screen and just give her a comforting hug after hearing her say what she said

I'm 19, recently moved to the UK from Texas. It's the middle of winter, 5:40 in the morning, on my third cup of coffee today, and just listening to country music in the kitchen and I have an interview at 11. Yeah, life's pretty good.
There will be some downs in the near future, remember right now and remember how you survived to get to this point. Do it again, and the next time will be even better. All the best, my Texas friend.
I lost the love of my life. But god first I am slowly getting her back ❤ we have been dating since we were 15 I’m 24 now we both have done our share of dirt but the way I see it is we never had the chance to experience life without each other now that we’ve spent time apart we both grew a lot and started respecting each other more as people. God may come along and bring me someone, but this girl.. Man I want this girl to be the mother of my kids so bad 🙏 I love her too damn much I’m learning what real love is like and not just puppy love anymore.
Not your average country song Eric Church does a good job at sticking out from most other country artists and has unique qualities. Springsteen and Give Me Back my Hometown are my favorites by him.
If ya'kk haven't listened to Born To Run and Darkness on the Edge of town-- you won't understand how Church respects/loves Bruce Springsteens music. Bruceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I've always loved this song, but my favorite line is "Funny how a melody, sounds like a memory..." It's just the absolute truth 💯!! Any song I listen to, can take me back to the person, place or time, in a heartbeat ❤
Dunno how a guy who was 8 years old in the summer of '85 managed to capture my summer of '85 so perfectly, but you did, EC. Saw Springsteen 4 times at Giants Stadium that summer with my girlfriend, whose name was tattooed on the passenger door of my '73 Mustang convertible (not on my arm, and I didn't have a Jeep, but the sentiment was spot-on). Thanks for the nostalgia!

my big brother passed away march 31, 2017 of overdose. this song was one of his favorite songs. it brings back so many happy memories with him, and that's exactly why i love music so much. i'm not crazy about country these days, but i grew up with it. and i grew up always singing and dancing with my big brother. i think of this as his song. i love you joseph. i hope you're jamming out in heaven.
Sorry for your loss. My brother is a complete out of control drug addict and I know in my heart if he don't stop using he will pass away and I can't fathom the thought of losing him. I'm at a complete loss.
I was driving up the 400 towards Barrie Friday night and this song came on in my playlist. I started bawling just thinking of you. I remember sending you this song/video a few years back and you said it reminded you of us when we were growing up. To top it all off Bruce Springsteen was the last concert we ever attended together. It's been two and half years but the cut still feels like it was yesterday. I feel like I've been repeatedly stabbed and the pain feels like it will never end. I miss our "July Saturday Nights." Please save a place for me up there. I love you and miss you so much, Mike. Springsteen.
Jakob Goldbach Hey Jakob, thinking about my brother. He passed away almost 3 years ago. I left my comment open ended cause I didn't want to get too specific. I miss him a lot.
Awh (: This song actually came out when I was 17 and in love...this would be our song and we'd rock out to it in his car on summer nights looking at the stars. We're not together anymore, but it's funny how a melody sounds like a memory like a soundtrack to a July Saturday night
He doesn't get noticed enough. I love his voice and I believe this is one of the best songs ever written. My mom loved him also and she was in her seventies.
Wasn't a country fan until I heard this song. I remember exactly where I was. I was on a plane home for leave from deployment and I remember plugging my headphones into the arm rest to listen to the radio stations that had preset music on the plane and this song came on and it hit me like a ton of bricks. It was 2012 I was 20 years old and I was coming home from all this stress to coming home to friends, family, my country, my town. It put alot of things into perspective and i've love country music ever since.
I was freshly 21 and was close to being done with tech school for the Air Force. Reminds me of beers and fireworks on the fourth with my friends. Seriously good memories. This song will never not make me smile.
I really dont know why, but I always get goose bumps at then end when the girl starts singing. Idk, just feels like he's singing the song about him thinking for her, and the girl at then end is like her thinking about him too. Like theyre both thinking about each other, though they both live a far ways off from each other
The first time I ever heard this song I was out at a bar in Nashville for my cousins bachelor party. It was my first time ever visiting Nashville, We had been drinking all day, it was about 2am and my friend passes me a joint and I take a hit, I hadn't smoked mmj in years so i had 0 tolerance. 5 min after I took the hit an extremely talented live cover band started playing this song. I headed out to the dance floor and started dancing with all my cousins and family around and it was honestly a transcendent experience. I was so in the moment and so in love with all of them and everyone around me, I completely lost myself in the music, I had absolutely no self consciousness, only an overwhelming sense of gratitude and nostalgic joy as I let the music move me. I all of a sudden knew we were all getting older and I felt how we probably don't have many moments like this left, of being young and uninhibited, free and together. It was magic. Now every time I hear this song I'm right back there. Dancing with my cousins, totally absorbed in the moment. Glorious.
idk if anyone is still active in the comments, but yesterday was a saturday in july and i spent it with my boyfriend and had the time of my life. thank you eric, for reminding of something i hope to never forget:)
This song came out 10 years ago? Still feels like it just came out today! A timeless classic ! My favorite line: I bumped into you by happenstance, you probably wouldn't even know who I am. But if I whispered your name, I bet still be a spark ♥️
If i should take this chat private with you by giving you my private tour mobile number.. do you promise to keep my number very safe and never share with any soul?
Thanks for the love❤️ and support you showered on me,it's been a wonderful year having fans like solidly behind me😊, this is my way of saying thank you🙏to the people who brought me this far.I hope you never stop listening to my music,you are very beautiful and you seem to be a very nice person❤️... Where are you supporting me from?
This song brings me back to the summer of 2011. The summer I met the guy that made me believe in love again. Although he is no longer in my life there is not one single day that passes by that he does not cross my mind. I hope one day he knows this ...
Go after em! I had the same experience. I eventually said fuck it looked for her found her again now we're married with two little girls. If it's meant to be you'll find your way around again 😊

This song takes me back to being 19 and just out of boot boot. To being stationed at Cherry Point NC, riding around on my motorcycle with friends and getting my first tattoo from Tattoo Louie. To hanging out at the enlisted club on base on Friday nights listening to Springsteen and drinking cheap whiskey. I miss those days and the people who made those days special. Steven, Jim and Vera the 3 of you are gone now but the laughter and the good times we all had are forever with me. I raise a toast of good whiskey to each of you in memory of all those Friday nights 🥃

Eric Church is one of the most humble people I know he is my cousin and we have hung out several times at family reunion‘s. We are very close. This man is a millionaire and he shows up in a 2010 Chevy Silverado wearing skinny jeans some old raggedy boots and a long sleeve flannel. Truly amazing.
Love this song ! Very handsome he was !! Would have loved having that flag scarf he wore in this video . His twang is great !! 😏❤️🤍💙 Beautiful job Eric !!!!! 💖🙂👍👍👍

An Indian from a remote corner in India. Avid country music fan. A pity that I discovered this gem so late. Was stuck with "Kill a word" up untill a few years ago but somehow didn't explore Eric Church's discography much. Boy oh boy. Better late than never. On a loop. When you nonchalantly say "Springsteen", it sends a rush of blood to my heart ❤️ What an artist you are ❤️
This song came out just days after I turned 17, I remember having a feeling that this song would really mean something special someday, and to enjoy my youth before it faded away.

"I bumped into you by happenstance You probably wouldn't even know who I am But if I whispered your name I bet there'd still be a spark" I'd like to think that after all these years this was still the case.
Older country for sure an rare gems like this but most new country is straight garbage but like some Strait, Yoakam, Brooks, Black that's where it's at
I love all my fans and am a ton thankful to them for their extraordinary love, appreciation and support it keeps me all going..Are you one of my great fans out there!
Be 50 soon. I have basically lived this song. Fell in love with a girl out of highschool that didn't work out for whatever reason. But, I will say this, I'm glad it didn't. I ended up marrying someone much better and I love her so much more than anyone else I was ever with. Just when you think life has sold you short. God shows up and reminds you who's in charge of this crazy world...
i understand . i ran away with this girl in the 80s numerous times . she broke my heart . i was a nice guy and girls feed off that they hurt you . not all though . i have been married 26 years and i am 50 . i have two boys who are grown and i am blessed . the Lord does give those blessings .
Thanks for sharing this. It's been more than 8 years since my high school love left me while I was in my first year in the service. It's still hard for me to get over her memory. I'm still reluctant to let it go.
Some of God’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers - Garth
@@camdenmacek43 Exactly what I was thinking!!!
I hear you... a girl i fell in love with probably still does'nt know it.... I thought i saw her a few years back.... still just stood there and wondered....
I’m 82 years and live about 25 miles from where Eric was raised,I’m singing the hell out of this
Hey man hope all is well! Congratulations on 82 and many more to come 🤟.
I’m glad you love this song too! And I’m 14! I love Eric Church!
66 and with you!
Happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉

Hearing this song after 8 years and the line "Funny how a melody sounds like a memory" just hit right in the feels. 🥺

@@ericchurch7033 your not the real Eric church, you are a fraud
This song takes me back to when I lived in a small town, was 16, was chasing a girl, going to parties, sneaking out, and just living a childhood of wilderness and excitement I miss it all so much and I miss that girl so much thank you Eric church I love you
Is always nice to give a hand when we see that person needs it be grateful is an amazing gift from God
Thanks for sharing! I still have a little bit left of this crazy childhood. I also live in a small town! And I want to stay! But I might have to leave for a while. 😢. But I will definitely return. It’s crazy how our stories sound the exact same and that we both love this song
When I think of you, I think of 19 in San Diego, 22 in Naples, Italy, 23 in Athens, Greece....24 in Norfolk......and on and on......now, it will be 56 in Vegas. Yea, I still love you and it's always BEEN you.
That is such a beautiful, romantic, ideal way to feel. How wonderful!!
Thanks, it's been hard but, it was my mistake for not marrying him.....Now 2 families later and several ex spouses, we will meet again. Funny, I am Not scared.....I guess because I KNOW that I love him and he loves me! That never changed!

i have a 17 year old brother who is special needs, he listen to this song everyday at least once. If there was a way to see how many of the views on this video was him, I would totally wanna know. He isn’t able to talk as well as everyone else but he sure does know every word to this song.

That’s awesome.
He has good taste
@ indeed he does!
Never knew this song existed tell my ole man started playing this while he was having afew whiskey glasses
Amazing how a song can take you so far back and want to relive the past.
he discusses this in the song
Tru tru
Especially when you grew up listening to the boss.fuck I'm old😮
@@gigapus5050 Not listening to this your not. 🍻
Exactly
My brother passed away this past July 2013. This was one of his favorite songs. Maybe because when he was 17 I got my jeep and he helped my husband work on it. Idk. But I know he LOVED this song and now whenever I hear this song, 98% of the time when I hear it, I'm driving in my jeep so I'd like to think he's riding shotgun protecting me and my children.
Love and miss you, Christian!! Xoxo
10 years and no reply. i hope your doing better right now
I’m very sorry for your loss.
Sending my belated condolences ,
2023 and it's my first time hearing this song. I thought it was a new release. I might be 11 years late, but let me tell you, this is a perfect time in my life to hear it. Good heart music.
I'm too

Same here
I moved to Colorado, 2011, went through some hard times, I was a free lance photographer. After hopping around jobs, I took my camera and a portfolio I had built to a local camera shop, the owners name was Rich.
It started as an interview, and turned into a conversation, he hired me on the spot, after a 3 hour conversation.
Everyone else had been working for him for a minimum of 5 years. They all took me in like family.
I was 22, had just packed up my life and left.
This song played on his playlist for the store at least 3 times a day. I grew to hate it, I moved back to Seattle about 2015, Rich died in his sleep, due to an unknown reason at the time. My prior co workers contacted me and I broke down. I immediately bought a plane ticket, and a song I had not heard for years came on the radio.
It was his favorite song. This song. Rich, I love you man. You took me in when I was young and stupid. You changed my life forever. A melody is really a memory.
That's the saddest comment I have seen, qnd have looked through comments on over 50 songs. I hope you qnd rich can have another three hour conversation in heaven.
@@Jdowns1733so true ☝
This comment just shattered me. God bless you man. God Bless you Rich, RIP.❤
Beautiful man. Great description
Hey Eric if you are reading this I wanna say thank you. I use to listen to this song and watch the music video on tv at my great grandparents house when my mom was bad on drugs. You helped me through a terrible time in my life and your music and this song use to bring me so much light. Now I listen to it I can feel what I felt then and seen how much I have grown. Now I'm in the army and left that life behind. THANK YOU
My mom went to prison for drugs and still going back .. I wanted to join air force .. I understand
And thank you for your service! The Armed Forces of the United States have pulled a lot of kids out of really bad situations and given them direction in their lives. My younger brother was one. He got out of an unhealthy situation at home, joined the Army, went through Ranger school. Then SERE. Then sniper training. In amongst all that, he married a wonderful woman, had two lovely daughters, and then got out. He now works for a small company in AZ, lives in a million dollar home, and enjoys the life he's built for himself.
God bless you n yes this song will always be a hit in my books
Way to go:) 👍
Reminding you to listen to this song today!😂🙏🏻
This is one of the best country songs of all time.

I was 19 my pregnant girlfriend sleeping with her head on my chest as this song played in her living room. I miss you. I love you and our daughter. May those memories be forever.
Call her
When I hear Springsteen, it brings me back to the 80s. I would sell my soul to go back to this time period. Eric nailed this song! Love it.
I’d give all my tomorrows for one single yesterday….
Me too. The eighties were the best. Every song invokes some kind of memory.❤
@@catfishman1768😢
Jesus loves you!!
I just feel blessed to grew up in the 70,s they the 90,s
RICK SPRINGFIELD wrote the song BRUCE and now ERIC CHURUCH writes the song SPRINGSTEEN both great songs
It’s hard to imagine this song came out 9 years ago, but it’s still one of the best songs ever written

😆
I will never forget this song as long as I live. The first time I heard this song, I was 17 years old on a mountain view looking over Livermore, California in the middle of July. And I was in the passenger seat of my ex girlfriends Grand Cherokee. Whenever I hear this song, that image will always come to my mind. Great song.
Great memory man.
Top notch memory, my dude!
Kinda gave me chills idk why lol
First time I heard this song I was 13, currently 17 and sitting here reading your comment :D...
my Mom and I have a Great connection & Special moments & memories to remember because of Springsteen
The eptamy of every lost connection. Bittersweet
Not sure if this comment will get noticed or not, but I was actually one of the kids running around somewhere in the background at 2:26. In fact, the garage scenes were taken a few doors down from where I lived, on the same street as the one Eric walks down in the video. It's been well over a decade, but man, what a night this was. Even seeing the music video now, it's a nostalgia bomb. To think that me along with some of the kids seen throughout the video have all grown up, moved away, or are busy doing their own things, it's crazy how time flies. My younger brother, the one who rode out of the garage at 1:41, he's all grown up and is about to graduate high school. A handful the kids I was running around with at 2:26, some of us are working now or are wrapping up college. A few of them moved away so I don't entirely know what they're doing now, but I hope they're doing well. Despite it being over a decade, I don't think this is a memory I'll ever forget. It's ironic how this is the melody I keep coming back to for a memory I will never forget.
❤ cool beans!!!
3:01 Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. Love this part 🥹
"Funny how a melody, sounds like a memory" this will always hit hard for that someone
I think this song right here can go under the category of most legendary memorable songs of all time. After you listen once, seems like you know every lyric, note, chord. Man this is great
Yeah buddy!
Hope you are doing ok, listening to this song means your reminiscing, on lost love
He is so handsome and a great voice for sure. I have played this video so many times.
Every time I listen to this song I either get shivers down my spine or I get tears in my eyes.... Does this happen to anyone else?
Yes
Especially if you actually love the Springsteen songs he sings about

O yes it does! Its been 29 years since my 17 yr old memory & this song takes my right back to that time in my life!
this song is amazing. i'm 17. it's mid July. Me and my gf are having a blast. I wish this never ends.
^ very True, I wished this summer would never end
im in the same boat man. i never want it to end.
I'm 21 XD I would've spent the summer with my boyfriend but I live in Missouri and he lives in Georgia so all we could do was video chat and text
+countryfan116 theres a 1hour version
+Crysral Winkle I'm in sw Missouri
My son is 17 and he’s so in love with a girl who is 17, I let her move into my house (long story she needed a place to go) wish them the love story
Nah she gonna leave him sadly. Hope not but more than likely
Perfect ending to a perfect song. Bang on young man, bang on!
After doing about five minutes of research, I found that this video was shot in Elgin Texas! So, to the small town of Elgin, THANK YOU! This song was written because of the love we have for America and places like yourself and the love we have for the amazing people that grow up in your small but I'm sure nurturing communities.
I’m not a big fan of country in general. But this song, this masterpiece will forever bring joy to me and others.
Same.
You need to listen to Charlie Daniels the.
this song will never get old
agree..
I can listen to it like 3 times in a row. Its one of my all time favorites
I can't tell you how many times I have played this song!
Jocelyn Rodriguez- Tellez n
I agree
I am proud to be Guatemalan and have never set foot in the states, but I love this song, can't get it out of my head. Cool song!
I remember when this came out and I had this song on repeat for hours and hours at night. I couldn't stop hearing different details in it every time, and it kept making me want to cry... This is one of the only songs that ever used to give me any sort of emotional response and to this day it still hits me the same way :)
I do and I miss it😭
Get a grip
I hated this song when it came out. Not because it was bad. But because every single station played it every other song. But now when I hear it. It takes me back. As the lyric goes. Melody sounds like a memory.
That’s amazing
🙂
Anybody listening, how much do you love every Eric Church song
All of them
So much
This is like my favorite songs of all time because when my mom and dad were still together, I would listen to this everyday and my dad would sing to it. It reminds me of my dad 💙
Edit: I also did like my own comment bc nobody else probably even cares so..
Its been 6 months since you've posted this comment. I've found it and liked it because I care 😀
literally same for me 😂
on her with love in fell I and wife my meet first I When
I read your beautiful comment and I care...
I care. That's a nice memory. Everyone has something or someone different they associate this song with and I think that's beautiful~ It's a wonderful song.
I first heard this song when I was 7 and to be completely I didn’t understand the meaning and lyrics. 11 years later I am now 18, I have graduated high school last year, started an electrical career, and play guitar. I cherish this song so much more. The girl that comes to mind when this song plays, makes me wonder if she feels the same way. I know god has his plan for me, whether thats me and her back together or never seeing her again. Funny how this song was just song that I liked to being one that I cherish on a different level. May god bless each and every one of you. Now I have a lot more music to go back to
That’s a great story. I want to stay in my hometown when I grow older. I’m 14, can I get some advice? Christ is king!
Eric church doesn't care about what genre he is considered he just makes music that he likes which is why I like him he doesn't do it to be cool he does it because it's his thing
Exactly! He is not only one of the greatest artist of today but one of the greatest of all time, the emotion and passion he puts into his songs is unmatched
why i love avenged sevenfold too. You cant classify then as one genre of Rock. Theyre all over the place making awesome sounds
Well said! I agree!
:) ya
+Brittany Andrews he's country, he's rock n roll, he's a rebel I wouldn't say he's just " a country guy" I'd say he's an "American badass"
From Two Pink Lines to Guys Like Me to Springsteen. Church knows what to do.
I’ve listened to Bruce Springsteen my entire life. I was introduced to him at 8 years old by my father, I listened to him my entire senior year on the train ride to and from school, I’ve been listening to him all through college. He’s been a mainstay in my life more than almost every friend but one. I love hearing tributes to him from other artists because it makes me realise how revered he is, not just by his adoring fans, but other artists too. He’s Americas favourite son, and the rest of the world loves him also!

@Eric Church🔹 scammer
Amen brother .. and kudos to Erich Church, a great artist in his own right, for giving this tribute to The Boss.
“When you think about me, do you think about 17” I was 17 in 2002 & every time I here this song it takes me there! Little did I know, those memories would be worth more than Money can buy. 🤞🏾💙
I don't think there was ever a better lyric than "Funny how a melody sounds like a memory"
Robyn Coats-Bier "CHURCH" snuff jus' said!!!!!😎
listen to some Bruce Springsteen and you'll see what he means
He nailed it
It’s one of those lyrics that just sticks with you. I think my next tattoo will be that lyric.
Then you gotta listen to ANY Rock song..... Even hmm Bruce SPRINGSTEN. Lmfao!!! He named it after a Classic Rocker, cause Country sucks..
"Funny how a melody sounds like a memory." I hope he knows we all made memories to this song.
@Eric Church🔹 NO, THANK YOU Brother !

@@maxmartiI know. There still is 😂
Yep
Saw Eric Church tonight, was one of the most memorable nights of my life
Jake Smith In Lincoln, Nebraska?
Lucas Perry no Grand Forks
Jake Smith Ah. I saw him on the 13th of January in Lincoln. Guess it doesn't seem like 5 days ago haha
Lucas Perry he was awesome, he wore UND's Sioux medallion around his neck, even though we aren't allowed to be called fighting Sioux anymore
I going to him in March I'm super excited. he's one of my favorites
I wish Americans would love their culture more. The beauty of what their country is and represents is just so wholesome and strong.
I know Hollywood isn't a real representation but, the other 300 million, know you are loved!!
❤ 🇬🇧
Not an American but I don't get why most Americans hate Country Music, it's great and portrays their value too
@@countrymusicfan9176 Country music is the most popular music in the USA
For those who don't know: Bruce Springsteen is a man that helped rock and roll become what it is. Eric references many of his songs in this song. I'm on Fire, Born in the U.S.A., and Born to Run are a few I heard. I think I also heard Glory Days.
"do you remember those Glory Days". Good ear.
a year ago today (18th of January) I was dating a guy and he was obsessed with Eric Church well a year ago today he got ran off the road by a drunk driver and he didn't make it out and when ever I hear this song it brings me back to him. I will never forget that kid.
Sorry for your loss. Prayers.
SO SO SORRY SWEETIE
Im sorry hear that n eric church helps u out no matter what mood u r in his music put u smile on
Smile, thanks for your love and support towards me 🌹❤
My dad died Saturday and this was his favorite song
sorry for your loss m8
RIP
Sorry for your loss....
sorry man i lost my dad 2014 and i cried like a baby. Never cried so hard as a man at 25 years old.
Your dad was a good guy. You'll see him again.
How a melody sounds like a memory hits hard
That's a great lyric. ❤ bittersweet
Iove this son̈g😊
Indeed. This is my favorite song and brings me back
All hail Bruce Springsteen! It's refreshing to know that there artists out there, like Eric, who acknowledge greatness. Music today is such shit. This song kicks ass.
You said it man
Yeah - eric church is definitely different - hope he keeps singing
No country song makes my heart feel likes it's being squeezed as Springsteen does. It brings some of the best memories I can only wish to relive. Thank you Church!
Hello
How are you
Nailed it.
This song makes me so nostalgic something I never even had. The best advice I can give to a young man is don't be afraid to make those memories. You're gonna wish you had them when you get older.
I am 83 yrs old! I will tell you this, this song had to be made from experience, Eric had to have lived it, to put a song together that speaks to all of us, WHAT GOOD MEMORIES COME TO MIND, YOU ARE THE BEST ERIC❤
It is crazy I am the same age as this song I am 11 it is a banger I listen to it for years
You Rock 👍🏼 Party On ❤️
To all my fellow PEOPLE'S out there starting a relationship and maintaining one this good vibes video is a great and written through song of how to treat each other to last!! Which should be what we are all looking for or not and if not please disregard!!! Great job Eric and Crew for Sharing!! 🙂🤗😎 Justsayin, what say u ?
When I first heard this song I was 17 and I had an old 99 jeep Cherokee. Living in the middle of the Appalachian mountains in a small town called Boone, North carolina. Riding the blueridge with my girlfriend, sitting around bonfires at parties in the woods with my gf and all my best friends sitting around, the happiness and care free life of being young. This song will always choke me up and will always be my favorite song of all time
Eric church is from granite falls NC just down from Boone
@@angietortora9720 I know it's crazy! That's why I connect with him so much. I went and saw him in greensboro and he really put on a hell of a show because he said he was finally home. Gave me chills
Dude whoever that girl was in the first 10 seconds of the song, I just wanna reach through the screen and just give her a comforting hug after hearing her say what she said
This is my grandmas favorite song and we finally found it and I showed it to her today and she was so happy! It made me so happy! :))

a nice tribute to the greatest musician ever.

I'm 19, recently moved to the UK from Texas. It's the middle of winter, 5:40 in the morning, on my third cup of coffee today, and just listening to country music in the kitchen and I have an interview at 11. Yeah, life's pretty good.
all the best
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️,
Hope you got the job
Do you miss the states?
There will be some downs in the near future, remember right now and remember how you survived to get to this point. Do it again, and the next time will be even better. All the best, my Texas friend.
Jesus loves you
And I love Jesus
I lost the love of my life. But god first I am slowly getting her back ❤ we have been dating since we were 15 I’m 24 now we both have done our share of dirt but the way I see it is we never had the chance to experience life without each other now that we’ve spent time apart we both grew a lot and started respecting each other more as people. God may come along and bring me someone, but this girl.. Man I want this girl to be the mother of my kids so bad 🙏 I love her too damn much I’m learning what real love is like and not just puppy love anymore.
Not your average country song Eric Church does a good job at sticking out from most other country artists and has unique qualities. Springsteen and Give Me Back my Hometown are my favorites by him.
check out record year. by eric church
george jones
Edwin Hoffman Smoke a little smoke is probably my favorite.
These boots has always stuck with me, actually the first song I learned to play on the guitar to
Don't forget Like a Wrecking Ball :)
If ya'kk haven't listened to Born To Run and Darkness on the Edge of town-- you won't understand how Church respects/loves Bruce Springsteens music.
Bruceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I've always loved this song, but my favorite line is "Funny how a melody, sounds like a memory..."
It's just the absolute truth 💯!!
Any song I listen to, can take me back to the person, place or time, in a heartbeat ❤
This song proves God's existence
Dunno how a guy who was 8 years old in the summer of '85 managed to capture my summer of '85 so perfectly, but you did, EC. Saw Springsteen 4 times at Giants Stadium that summer with my girlfriend, whose name was tattooed on the passenger door of my '73 Mustang convertible (not on my arm, and I didn't have a Jeep, but the sentiment was spot-on). Thanks for the nostalgia!
That was an awesome story, thank you for sharing.

In past time for another
We were 17, I had a jeep, her parents loved Springsteen, and we fell in love on summer Saturday nights. It's like he watched us. 20 years ago, today.
my big brother passed away march 31, 2017 of overdose. this song was one of his favorite songs. it brings back so many happy memories with him, and that's exactly why i love music so much. i'm not crazy about country these days, but i grew up with it. and i grew up always singing and dancing with my big brother. i think of this as his song. i love you joseph. i hope you're jamming out in heaven.
I'm 11 and me and my dad will go fishing while listening to this
I am very sorry for your Big Brother
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️,
Sorry for your loss. My brother is a complete out of control drug addict and I know in my heart if he don't stop using he will pass away and I can't fathom the thought of losing him. I'm at a complete loss.
@@lucidlucid7365 same
This song is a lyrical masterpiece. The line, “funny how a melody, sounds like a memory” is a line that truly captures the entire song.
The most under rated lyrics in a song. Freaking genius line
I was driving up the 400 towards Barrie Friday night and this song came on in my playlist. I started bawling just thinking of you. I remember sending you this song/video a few years back and you said it reminded you of us when we were growing up. To top it all off Bruce Springsteen was the last concert we ever attended together. It's been two and half years but the cut still feels like it was yesterday. I feel like I've been repeatedly stabbed and the pain feels like it will never end. I miss our "July Saturday Nights." Please save a place for me up there. I love you and miss you so much, Mike. Springsteen.
Pete Kic r talking about a girl. dont get mad if im not getting this. but im confused
Jakob Goldbach Hey Jakob, thinking about my brother. He passed away almost 3 years ago. I left my comment open ended cause I didn't want to get too specific. I miss him a lot.

Thanks everyone
@@vorticalacorn7ok906 listen to again
Awh (: This song actually came out when I was 17 and in love...this would be our song and we'd rock out to it in his car on summer nights looking at the stars. We're not together anymore, but it's funny how a melody sounds like a memory like a soundtrack to a July Saturday night
lols same here
It’s been 12 years and I still love this
Me too!! It’s my favorite song!
Eric Church is one of the best song writers of our time.
He doesn't get noticed enough. I love his voice and I believe this is one of the best songs ever written. My mom loved him also and she was in her seventies.
Smile, thanks for your love and support towards me 🌹❤
Wasn't a country fan until I heard this song. I remember exactly where I was. I was on a plane home for leave from deployment and I remember plugging my headphones into the arm rest to listen to the radio stations that had preset music on the plane and this song came on and it hit me like a ton of bricks. It was 2012 I was 20 years old and I was coming home from all this stress to coming home to friends, family, my country, my town. It put alot of things into perspective and i've love country music ever since.
God bless you ,thank you for your service son. Ya have my respect!!!
Thank you for your service on behalf of all of us including the thankless ones!
@@goaway1857yea im sure the dead afghanis send there regards
I was freshly 21 and was close to being done with tech school for the Air Force. Reminds me of beers and fireworks on the fourth with my friends. Seriously good memories. This song will never not make me smile.
I really dont know why, but I always get goose bumps at then end when the girl starts singing. Idk, just feels like he's singing the song about him thinking for her, and the girl at then end is like her thinking about him too. Like theyre both thinking about each other, though they both live a far ways off from each other
Maddie and tae
Oh fuck, that's deep.
The first time I ever heard this song I was out at a bar in Nashville for my cousins bachelor party. It was my first time ever visiting Nashville, We had been drinking all day, it was about 2am and my friend passes me a joint and I take a hit, I hadn't smoked mmj in years so i had 0 tolerance. 5 min after I took the hit an extremely talented live cover band started playing this song. I headed out to the dance floor and started dancing with all my cousins and family around and it was honestly a transcendent experience. I was so in the moment and so in love with all of them and everyone around me, I completely lost myself in the music, I had absolutely no self consciousness, only an overwhelming sense of gratitude and nostalgic joy as I let the music move me. I all of a sudden knew we were all getting older and I felt how we probably don't have many moments like this left, of being young and uninhibited, free and together. It was magic. Now every time I hear this song I'm right back there. Dancing with my cousins, totally absorbed in the moment. Glorious.
wow ❤
❤
Sounds amazing bro.
the songwriter would be proud.
That weed may have been laced with something.
idk if anyone is still active in the comments, but yesterday was a saturday in july and i spent it with my boyfriend and had the time of my life. thank you eric, for reminding of something i hope to never forget:)
Guess you're a good country MUSIC lover?
his lyrics "funny how a melody sounds like a memory" just plain poetry!
Mrblackvac4 srwdfwsdree
he's GIFTED blows my mind
Billy Joel did it first
Get one of his cds he’s a poet
as most/all of Springsteen's songs.. :) Wonder what he thinks of this.. :)
Song reminds me of my ex. We still talk often. No bad blood between us. Sometimes the person who means everything to you is meant for someone else.
jason reyes it’s probably one of the hardest things to accept but yep. You’re so right.

This song takes me back to being 19 and just out of boot boot. To being stationed at Cherry Point NC, riding around on my motorcycle with friends and getting my first tattoo from Tattoo Louie. To hanging out at the enlisted club on base on Friday nights listening to Springsteen and drinking cheap whiskey. I miss those days and the people who made those days special. Steven, Jim and Vera the 3 of you are gone now but the laughter and the good times we all had are forever with me. I raise a toast of good whiskey to each of you in memory of all those Friday nights 🥃

"I'm on fire, born to run" 19 here and enjoying life
I think this song should go into that category for the world’s best songs ever.
Edit: It’s 2020 and I still believe this!
Karsten Binkley I love this song but I have a feeling all them dumb millennials that like that stupid rap music are gonna want there music best songs in the world records
That’s also like Gary Allen the most underrated singer
Nah brother still have some faith 17 here and I fuck with this song heavily
Song never gets old !Tons of memories come flooding back.
agree with on Gary allen @@Ghostofthewar-lc8ge
This is one of the only songs that can give me goosebumps every time I hear it. Over and over.

Eric Church is one of the most humble people I know he is my cousin and we have hung out several times at family reunion‘s. We are very close. This man is a millionaire and he shows up in a 2010 Chevy Silverado wearing skinny jeans some old raggedy boots and a long sleeve flannel. Truly amazing.
He was always a douchebag in high-school. Glad he changed
"Funny how a melody sounds like a memory" a lyric equal to anything only Bruce Springsteen could have written
A tribute to Bruce
This song will never not break my heart when I hear it.
my grandma died yesterday, this made my cry.
The same here, it leaves my eyes damp.
It's a bittersweet song about the one who got away. Lost mine in the 80s so this song tears me up.
Mine as well unfortunately baby. That's just life I suppose.
Double negative
Love this song ! Very handsome he was !! Would have loved having that flag scarf he wore in this video . His twang is great !! 😏❤️🤍💙 Beautiful job Eric !!!!! 💖🙂👍👍👍

Like a July Saturday Night
Im not even legally an adult yet and this song makes me feel old
Luke McDuke same I’m 13
same im 12 and it brings me back to working with my dad when i was like 4
Born and raised country
Same
Yeah but still a good song
An Indian from a remote corner in India. Avid country music fan. A pity that I discovered this gem so late. Was stuck with "Kill a word" up untill a few years ago but somehow didn't explore Eric Church's discography much.
Boy oh boy. Better late than never. On a loop. When you nonchalantly say "Springsteen", it sends a rush of blood to my heart ❤️
What an artist you are ❤️
This song came out just days after I turned 17, I remember having a feeling that this song would really mean something special someday, and to enjoy my youth before it faded away.

Eric, paying omage to The Boss. The one the only, Bruce Springsteen. My brother and I LOVE this song.
Love the references in the line “I’m on fire I was born to run”. Two of my favorite Springsteen songs!
@@johntoland7198 Love EVERY song I've ever heard by The Boss. My favorites are Badlands, Thunder Road, and Nebraska.
"I bumped into you by happenstance
You probably wouldn't even know who I am
But if I whispered your name
I bet there'd still be a spark"
I'd like to think that after all these years this was still the case.
Dan Beers same
So damn true.. but years of this hindsight 20/20 remembered more and more to most of it.
I'm barely getting into the country genre and god i wish i would've sooner. Country is amazing
God bless America
Welcome to amazing music. Incredibly underrated, but undeniably real music.
Ernesto Camacho go look at classic rock youll love.iy
Country music is the best music there is. Real music from the heart and soul
Older country for sure an rare gems like this but most new country is straight garbage but like some Strait, Yoakam, Brooks, Black that's where it's at
I was 17 in 1997. Today I stand before you a 42 year will two kids and an amazing wife. I’m very grateful 🙏🏽.
I love all my fans and am a ton thankful to them for their extraordinary love, appreciation and support it keeps me all going..Are you one of my great fans out there!
