    i love how this video is all cheery and happy but the actual song is seriously the most depressing song i've ever heard

    No matter what the situation, this song will change my focus to being keenly aware of living life. Whether it's college homework, trouble with friends, etc. This song makes me stop and take a look around as life moves by. Love this song.

    Thank you Ben, thank you so much!
    Though this song has nothing to do with my dear friend that died a few years back, Whenever I hear it a flood of memories of all the great times we shared goes through my mind. So many of your songs have a powerful affect on me.
    I am blessed.

    By far, my favorite artist! Such an inspiration, I've been listening to his music even before his first album came out, and his music just keep getting better and better. Really makes me feel good inside. :) And in a weird way, his music makes me feel like my dreams are close enough to reach. I can't thank him enough!
