I buried my 3 day old daughter recently. I am a Christian so I know I will see her soon and she is in God's memory. This song makes me feel so good.........

[@jenniferedmunds6070]

[@alvask8z2000]

In 99 this was my go to song, mother dying from cancer and just starting a marital break up. 20 years later it is good to be alive!

[@markanderson3826]

[@RyanRoemer8624]

Heard this song in 1999 when I was 10 years old and I love it ever since now that I'm hearing this song in 2021 at age 31 it does make me feel great to be alive , long live 90s music ,

[@knightsword7694]

long live the 90's bro

[@ericmannistu3063]

I feel badly for today youth never getting to live through the 90s.

[@codeninja1]

I was 17. A favorite of mine.

[@-306-]

Yes bro I was also 10 years old in 99 when I heard this song 😢 makes me miss my dad who passed away in 2001

[@alangrant5684]

Seriously this has to be one of the best ever genuine unselfish awakening music videos of all.

[@icas80]

This dude walked away from a killer band to go solo and dropped this. lirl. Irony is fun.

[@justinelayne133]

This song is WICKED plus the video is beautiful.

[@aprildonovan7096]

I agree 100%%

The primary ditty of loving and appreciating life today

[@paulbergevin3602]

Always thought that him being the center of the camera makes him look like a douche but heh

[@giannicinelli9971]

What a powerful song… I cannot listen to this song without breaking down. It makes me think so much about how fast life is passing by. I remember listening to this song a heavily years ago before my mom passed. I knew her health was getting worse and from working in health care I could see what was coming. Now seeing my daughter grow up, is so amazing. My mom was close with her and now things my daughter says and how she act is so much like my mom. Life is beautiful but crazy .

[@user-yv4gc9zl2h]

I can feel the blood pumping through my veins and feel so alive and appreciate life when I listen to this song. It truly is good to be alive

[@tiamatxvxianash9202]

I can recall first hearing this song back in 2000. I was really stunned. Then began to watch it on MTV. Timeless tune. If more people listened to it, the world could only level up a little higher in virtue. Life Inspiring of the highest order; song and video.

[@jasonkasepchuk9583]

Back when mtv still played music miss those days

[@brucedickinson9026]

Take chances.. Be scared. Ask that girl out. When she turn you down ask out her friend. It is GOOD to be alive and it's so fucking short. The older you get the more time fly's by and the more trouble you'll have with enjoying it. Don't waste time. Live, Fucking live!

[@lauramjaime]

amen!

[@williamsong3108]

Okay!

[@sunnyjauhal2353]

Amen

[@LowKeyContender]

[@anthonyc7407]

Just heard this song randomly on the radio and it instantly brought me back to the 90's when music had some great lyrics. It's been on repeat all day!

[@willyum1208]

this song saved my life, to whomever wrote it, I am forever grateful.

[@coachwhitford7315]

Edwin! Good ol' Canadian boy!

[@imaginetheresno]

Damn...what marvelous lyrics....I must say that there are many Canadian bands that express quite an unique / awesome mindset.

[@coachwhitford7315]

Big Wreck! Check them out. Best kept secret in Canada

[@MBMusicGeek]

I grew up on edwin and I mother earth, and am still listening to it. Haven't taken "Better days" out of cd player in forever :)

[@TamaraLaschinsky]

This song was there for me when I felt so 'stuck' in a life I wasn't happy in. I realized that one day, things would change (and they did) and now it's about paying it forward. Sharing this song with my family & friends because I know someone will see it today who needs to hear this message. It is a GOOD day to be ALIVE! :) Namaste.

[@TamaraLaschinsky]

***** Thank you

[@TamaraLaschinsky]

***** Thank you - I am happy too..everything at the right time...just believe in your life path unfolding as it's meant to! :)

I'm stuck myself

[@joserilo8581]

@@Yippa391 Stay strong my friend 👍🤙

[@07SuperchargedSS]

this is one of those songs that makes me appreciate life whenever im in the dumps. i always have a more positive outlook on life and humankind after hearing this song and especially watching the video. other bands like U2 can have that effect too. Beautiful Day, Electrical Storm, Where the Streets have no name just to name a few. I wish this song had gotten noticed more. Its beautiful.

[@staygold902]

Back in the much music days. This song always stood out to me couldn't wait for them to play it

[@mchechio]

I am a total music lover, but when I heard this for the first time, I thought, there is hope for the human race after all. Thank you to the person who posted.

[@chelseykearney6854]

I still love this song after 20 yrs. Its a praise love be-strong song. Makes me feel something each time i hear it.

[@soccerplayer4life11]

This is my funeral song, although i plan on living forever...

[@TheDigitalPillars]

Seems the older you get, the faster time goes. I appreciate life more than ever. I never thought I'd hear myself say "life is a gift". Most people take life for granted, but if you think about the many different factors that came about to make you exist.. the odds are possibly in the trillions. So just to be able to look out of your eyes and see the world around you, one is lucky there.

[@MissHardyOfficial]

I just remembered this song from the 90s. Always loved it. Had forgotten about it for many years. It's just as touching and inspiring as it once was.

[@giannicinelli9971]

Can’t listen to this song without breaking down. Makes you think how fast life passes.

[@CleanReal]

best song ever has helped me through some rough times in my life.

[@CZac2k12]

They should play the song on the radio again 😀

[@lavigneeric]

This song is one of those songs that just makes you stop and think about life. It makes me stop and makes me realise that the negativity that I have is worthless! Just enjoy life and all of those things that makes this world worth living for. The ocean, the blue skies, the sun, the moon & stars, the soft sand, the mountains, and the list goes on and on..... I am thankful to be Alive!

[@ewanholberg3246]

Haven't heard this song since I was a teenager. Absolutely love it

[@TheBackFliper10111]

Still listening in 2019 👍🏼

Just checked in to watch this on my 72nd birthday. I have 3 terminal illnesses and it's a race to which one kills me. Every year is a good one. Thanks for this amazing music.

[@dietrichess9997]

This song appealed to me when it first came out and I saw it on television. It was a dark time for me, and I look back on this song with pleasure. I'm a stranger. I wish you all the best, as much as that is possible. I hope you are reading this, and/or at peace.

[@kariimskrazymum]

Back on Thankgiving 2000 I got on Much on Demand and this was the song | requested. Still love it. I met him a few years later at the Calgary Stampede and it was awesome. Pure Canadian talent.

[@jowston100]

Great song. Much Music fucking rocked back in the day. Found so many great bands, including my favorite - Matthew Good.

[@patrickgrondines7997]

[@mollygiggles]

Haven't heard this song in so long. Just awesome!

When ever it's a really pretty day out, this song pops into my head.

[@katherinechappell2452]

Me too, that's why I played it today

[@kshaw9179]

Thank you Jesus, for the gift of life

[@DesiMichael]

I saw Edwin about ten years ago in concert at a little dance place in Victoria, I went in front of the speakers about ten feet away and let the music blast through me, what a rush, my ears rang for a day or two .... when I hear this song I can tune in to the vibration of all being Alive on Earth Together, 7,000,000,00 of us Alive, I love it :)

[@KRhetor]

This and Let's Dance are my go-to songs during the Cornovirus Quarantine.

[@Bobinder22]

I might be 3 years late, but I fondly remember CBC using this song in their montage. It really was an amazing video to go along with this great song. I cant believe its been 12 years since Sydney 2000!

[@ChrysalysMoon]

Always loved this song, especially the video. The soaring vocals, orchestrations and breath-taking vistas-doesnt it just make ya wanna get up off ur chair and go outside just to feel the air, look at the sky and be glad ur alive?

[@germainjoshlamb3428]

I love Edwin solo or in I mother earth this man deserves more credits

[@adamv242]

This song always makes me think of my cat that I sadly lost in 2016. I have a perfect picture of her enjoying the "sun, strong against [her] face". Wish I could post it here.

[@chelseykearney6854]

When you get to heaven, you only have to call for her and she will be there. Otherwise its not heaven.

[@666Satanswolf]

Growing up as a young kid I remember this being one of my favorite music videos on the countdown, we're all human in the end, this is a reminder, embrace the life you have now, take a moment to realize this is the only life we have, be happy, to this day I still love this song and as an adult now this song has so much more emotion to it, so much more meaning, life only lasts for so long guys, embrace it, don't take it for granted.

[@stephen4938]

I remember hearing this song on MuchMusic many years ago. Such an incredible song that's stuck with me.

Life isn't measured by the amounts of breaths we take. But by the moments that take our breath away.

[@prariepallet7503]

This is the life you should live!!... Forget about money and fame... experience with the 5 senses is more powerful than all ELSE!!

[@jeremyhastings7099]

Has to be one of the most inspirational songs ever made, and the video just gives me goosebumps!

[@ryan332007]

This is one of the few songs which I fall in love with the first time I hear it. I was a lad when I first heard this and fell in love with it. I'm now 21 years old and it still has the same meaning to me as it did years ago. Still puts tears in my eyes.

[@jeffreybarkin3177]

THIS IS the SONG that clearly highlights our need to strive to appreciate What We Have and Value Too many invest their energy and funds pursuing dreams that are Not Their Own and often encouraged by those around them. Try to find what Really Appeals to you... Invest Your Time to explore this. Living The Dream is about THE JOURNEY not the acquisition and final achievements, in my humble view. If someone Gave Me my #career or personal experiences or #achievements they'd mean #ABSOLUTELY Nothing. They're Truly #Valued because their mine and my efforts and memories striving to gain or overcome challenges, though affected by personal perceptions, are what seems to Matter Most as I age and reflect back. Finally escaped a brutal marriage and disruptive circle, and This #Song Says It ALL! Thank You for recording and writing this #masterpiece ALEX LIFESON and EDWIN with your INCREDIBLE musicians, with this Amazing Award-Winning #Rockvideo and #singing performance. #songwriting #amazing #musicmatters #rockmatters #rocksong #rocker #winner #awardwinning #coolvideo #topsong #supportartists #music #chechthisout #amazing #meaningful #wild #wow .

On the day my first born child was born, my wife and I went into the nursery to get our Daughter, and of course the nursery was full of new borns (It was a busy day in Labour and Delivery that day.) and this song was play on the radio in there. I remember thinking how befitting that song was to be playing in a nursery full of new borns.

***** I know heh but still, the quality could've been better the day it was uploaded. Visually, I always thought this was one of the best videos out there. If there's one video I'd like to see reuploaded in HD, it would be this one!

Right? Such a shame that music videos like this, which probably had a budget and crew, ended up uploaded to KZbin years and years later in the worst quality possible.
