FINNEAS - Only A Lifetime (Live From The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon/2021)

[@wh0438]

"It's only a lifetime, it's only a while; it's not worth the anger you felt as a child" always makes me tear up. My favorite musician and lyricist ever. Thank you so much, finneas.

[@AxxLAfriku]

OH NOOOOOO!!! Most people agree that my vids are the worst on KZbin. I agree to disagree. Please agree to disagree with the haters, dear wh

[@mamtarana7577]

Ikr😖 ive even written it on my wall

[@thunderbirdice]

I agree. I didn’t look at the video when it autoplayed so no idea about the song but just hearing the lyrics was so emotional.

[@tyr9633]

Yes it's amazing 🔥

[@brittany9627]

I keep trying to like your comment and accidentally unlike it cause you can only like a comment once but I would have liked it about 10 times

[@shonen84]

This sounds like a brilliant young man with an old soul, warning himself to stay wise. And taking us on a magical musical journey while doing so. Love it.

[@probably_singing]

OK so I don't have very many friends who listen to FINNEAS so i'm kind of alone in my thoughts about the album. But what seems to be an unpopular opinion is that this song is the best song on the album. Hearing it live just now was something I didn't know I needed. The way he manages to capture the emotion... the pain from the COVID era is unlike anything else any other artist has put out. This song came out when I was going through a hard time. My family was all getting COVID, and some of them had it so bad we thought we might have to take them to the hospital. Then I got COVID, and while I wasn't losing my life this song helped me through quarantining in so many ways. It reminded me that there was something good out there and helped me think of the good times. It helped me remember after going through COVID that I should make the most of every situation, and I was still going through a hard time so that was something I really needed. And hearing it now at the end of a long day, it brings me back to center. It makes my heart swell. It brings me right back to all this pain, but also helps me remember and reflect on the times i've laughed so hard I start to cry, or the times I worry about my parents. I can't describe in words how much this song and album have helped me since their release, but that's my try. Thank you FINNEAS. ❤️❤️

[@sarahsaladmaker5055]

My friends also don’t listen to FINNEAS but every time I say “have you heard of FINNEAS” they all unanimously respond “AND FERB” and boy does it piss me off

[@thunderbirdice]

Keep fighting. We all have problems but you survived at the end of the day. That’s what matters.

[@thunderbirdice]

@@sarahsaladmaker5055 everyone in this fandom should be friends.

[@carolinaesthefany8393]

I feel you girl 💖 Finneas is amazing and I wish I could share my thoughts about his music with someone else too

[@NadyaPena-01]

I agree. I wish my friends would listen to him so that we may compare which songs speak to us the most. I think anyone who has lived can find at least a couple of FINNEAS songs that invoke something heartfelt. For me, I feel like each song brings me back to an experience. It's like an emotional wave. I don't know if this is my favorite song of his but I'm still here listening to it because, like you, this reminds me of the important things and the bygone moments that we never thought were gold but actually were golden. It feels nostalgic. As for the COVID thing, I wish you the best and I hope you and your family are all recovered.

[@DanTremblayMusic]

Not ashamed to admit I frequently weep listening to Finneas. 🥺 Is there another artist who has so effectively captured the emotional pain of the COVID era? Nope.

[@kdrecords4562]

3:39 "The fountain doesn't give you back your youth" One of my favorite lyrics in recent memory.

[@rmp251]

He seems to genuinely smile while singing. What a refreshing and inspiring performance.

[@mitchmatt6002]

You're a beautiful lyricist who never fails to capture the emotion behind the words - another fantastic performance! Bravo! ❤

[@NohaneCarvalho]

Listening to this song live was one of the most magical moments of my very hard year. Thank you for creating this. This song is healing in so many ways for my anxious heart.

[@chandrabindu2784]

This song is everything. Seriously. 😭❤️

I feel so lucky that I found Finneas and listen to his music because every song is just phenomenal and his voice is amazing!! He never fails to write an amazing song

[@barryispuzzled]

He's such a brilliant songwriter and the vocals are magical.

[@chloetelecky9200]

I can not stop listening to your voice. It is so mesmerizing. We love you so much 💜💜

[@user-vv7og1gt7t]

Finneas is absolutely the best new solo male singer out there. His words mean so much and he can write and play any music. #1 in my eyes and heart in this lifetime 🤎

[@roicesatoya5080]

Only A Lifetime - Lyrics How do you know If you've done everything right? Is it the love you have at hand Or the cash you kiss at night? How do you know If it was worth it in the end? Did every second really count Or were there some you shouldn't spend On anything but anyone you love? Was this the life that you were dreaming of? A movie night, a yellow light You're slowing down and days are adding up So don't waste the time you have waiting for time to pass It's only a lifetime That's only a while It's not worth the anger you felt as a child Don't waste the time you have waiting for time to pass It's only a lifetime That's not long enough You're not gonna like it without any love So don't waste it I'm unimpressed By the people preaching pain For the sake of some small gain In the sake of someone's name I'm unprepared For my loved ones to be gone Call 'em way too often now Worry way too much about mom Don't waste the time you have waiting for time to pass It's only a lifetime That's only a while It's not worth the anger you felt as a child Don't waste the time you have waiting for time to pass It's only a lifetime That's not long enough You're not gonna like it without any love So don't waste it It's family and friends, and that's the truth The fountain doesn't give you back your youth It's staying up too late at night and laughing under kitchen lights So hard you start to cry Don't waste the time you have waiting for time to pass It's only a lifetime That's not long enough You're not gonna like it without any love So don't waste it

[@TravisMossMusic]

I'm 40 years old, and have been a musician for over half of that. I listen to everything from Blugrass to metal, country, rock, r and b..... Finneas is real talent,

[@dianabushleryashaev2443]

This is even better then the recorded version. Why am I crying?

[@theonlymegan1290]

This song is actually genius and always makes me feel like I’m gonna cry without having actual tears come out which is odd but makes me feel like I should live my life the best I can

[@billiesmystrangeaddiction.8374]

I love this performance, Finneas is so talented.

[@1991jdclark]

The lyrics and melody. His voice. I've this song. I find it heart warming and uplifting.

[@karinamendoza1022]

I am so proud of Finneas, he is an incredible, intelligent, unique, loving person and many other things and he is also a singer, this man does not need anything but rather we need his music. We love you Finneas! 💓

[@theggirl93]

My husband has been playing this song in the car and suddenly it hit me what this song is about. My Daddy just passed away last Dec 2022 just a few weeks before Christmas and this song reminds me of him. I always think of him when I hear this song and I always tear up. I spent 26 years taking care of him and I wished I didn't waste any time and made him feel loved until his last breath. "I love you Daddy and I miss you!"

[@samypm2024]

all his songs are masterpieces I love them

This song is awesome! So well written: solid structure, heartfelt and creative lyrics, great melody, relevant and important theme; and the way he presents that theme is so natural, authentic, and poignant/beautiful. This song has so many strong elements that it's tough to point to just one.
