    This song reminds me of my grandma. She fought cancer multiple times, she lost her battle 01/12/2011. And now it also reminds me of my second mom, my best friend’s mom. That woman fought so hard. She did not have an easy life. She was abused. Her kids were abuse. She and them got away. She fought many illnesses, infections, back problems, surgeries. In the end metastasized breast cancer got her this past May. And this song helps me to keep going when the pain (physical and mental, fibromyalgia, bullied as a kid that caused trauma) gets almost too much to bear. I sing this song and I cry.

    it's unfortunate that this song doesn't have that many views considering how
    inspirational and encouraging it can be.
    It has helped me out tremendously!!

    One of the most beautiful and inspiring songs I have ever heard. I find myself in love with this band. I've already hooked my best friend on the song Unwanted, now I'm going to make her listen to this and she will fall in love too.
    Thank you for this music, the world needs some real talent and beautiful songs.
    You have yourself another fan. (:

    This was so beautiful!
    I remember, I saw the
    trailer for Season One
    of the Secret Life and
    needed to know what
    song was playing in
    the background! You
    guys are so amazing
    and Kira, you're voice
    is beautiful! I thought
    nothing could top the
    song, but the video did.
    I love it!

    That must be a hard disease to recover from, and I wish you the best of luck. Anything that could help you more and make you more determined to fight is a miracle. If you want another inspirational song I suggest Courage by Superchick, which is also very good. As I said, best of luck and I hope one day you can make as best of a recovery as is possible.

    i got that she was telling her parents about it in that scene, HOWEVER the comment posted said that it was posted on Nov 30th and in the comment she said she was due oct 10th. It would be impossible to know that then.

I mean they changed the some of the songs melody ect but they cut a song calld plump and jusey but they replaced it it with this song witch is illegal I don't know why but I told all my friends and none of us ever heard it so I used the goggle search a song feature and it brand me to this with a 97% match and this song is cool but Malibu high school "which is the name of the high school" is not cool COME SEE JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH JR AT HPAP ITS REALLY GOOOOOD PLEEEEESE
