Being born in '72, this song is my life. My mom cried like a baby when Elvis died. I remember the day the space shuttle fell from the sky. Just like the song, I have a mortgage and two suvs. It brings back all kind of memories every time I hear it!!! LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!
12years later I was born in 99 I turn 25 this year I’ll be lucky if I can ever afford or qualify for a mortgage at this rate wish I’d have been born in yalls decade haha 😂
I was an 80s baby and a 90s teen. I remember the 80s memories and relate to the songs. I am listen in 2023. I turn 41 this Fall. May God bless you, Mark Wills! Thanks for sharing!
I turned 43 two weeks ago and remember when this song first came out. Even then, I instantly got taken back to my days of tights under a skirt, wearing two pairs of different colored crunch socks, crimped hair and feathered bangs. And, yes, I had a few pairs of parachute pants! Also, Bugle Boys....colorful, but, god-awful! I thought I looked good back then, though. 😂
80s baby and 90s teen I love this song and always have! It still brings a tear to my mothers eyes hearing it. She was a early 60s baby had me early 80s. I now know how she felt when she heard it for the first time. 😢
I was born in 1975 and the first time I heard this song, all I could remember was that I couldn't wait to grow up and be on my own. Oh, what a poor dream choice that was.....
I was born in 1982 and I got to see Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Everything, Van Halen, WWF Live, WCW, The best Horror movies, Rental movies. The 80's are the best!
First time I heard this I got a tear in my eye. Born in 66. Teenager in the best decade of all time. Enjoyed the 60's, 70's and 80's music while a teenager. I know all what this song is about.
Born in 1968, I can relate to EVERYTHING in this song. From Star Wars, Evil Keneviel, Stretch Armstrong, when Dallas was America's team. I can tell you exactly where I was when I heard the news about Elvis dying (and my Mom did cry), and where I was when I heard the news the Challenger exploded on Jan 28, 1986. This song is my childhood.
I don't remember Elvis dying, but I do remember Challenger. Then Oklahoma City, then the Towers... School for Challenger, at home for Oklahoma City, working for the Towers.
@@Iris_Collins I was born in 1994; so my generation is associated with the bombing in Oklahoma City, "Scream" reviving the horror genre of movies, Princess Diana losing her life in a car crash, Bill and Monica, Columbine, Y2K hysteria, 9/11, Nickelodeon being the kids network to watch, etc.
@@michaellovely6601 I remember Oklahoma City; I don't remember what i was watching on TV before the news report came on, but I do remember the wreck of the building and the crying kids from the day care center. Made my heart hurt looking at them.
I miss those days sometimes - I'm happy and blessed today with two grown sons and my precious granddaughter. 🥰 But still "I would't trade those days for nothing - It was 19 somethin'!"
I was born in December 1969 and I tell you that this may be the truest song of ANY classification! MTV did play 24 hours of videos... What a much simpler life back then.
This song describes my whole life growing up in the 70's, 80's. I'm getting near 50 now and wish I could live all those years over again. I loved the Dallas Cowboys, had a stretch Armstrong, had a few bike crashes, still love Star Wars and I remember watching my mom cry when Elvis died. Same with the 80' s.....I remember all of it. From the Rubik's cube to the Challenger Explosion and my first car......A brand new black Pontiac Firebird. Good times.........👍
I was born in 1994; so I mostly grew up during the 2000's. I remember the 2000 election, the September 11 attacks in 2001, the Bali bombings of 2002, the power outage of 2003, the Boxing Day tsunami of 2004, Hurricane Katrina devastating New Orleans, the death of Pope John Paul II in 2005, the 2006 Amish schoolhouse murders in Pennsylvania, Virginia Tech in 2007, the election of Barack Obama in 2008, and the death of Michael Jackson in 2009.
Born in 1966 lyv this Cowboy music there nothing better then playing all my favorite never gets old playing them ever day always This Little Country Cowgirl thank u cowboy ❤❤❤❤❤
I was born in 1971, in what was then a small town in GA. I don't live far from my parents home. Times have changed so much. At times it doesn't feel like the same world. This song hits so close to home with me. I can still remember me and my dad, mom, and brothers watching the Dukes of Hazzard on friday nights. I still remember me and my brothers going to the arcades playing video games like pac man, defender, and so many others. I still remember us playing outside even after the sun went down. Chasing lighting bugs in the summer. Waking on saturday mornings and watching cartoons til noon. Then getting our fishing poles and heading to a small pond near the house to catch bass or bluegill bream. Or catching catfish . Great times. Very great times.
I was born in 1969 and the first time I heard this song I was by myself in my car and I cried like a baby. Not even sure why. I wish I could go back and do it all over again knowing what I know now.
@@christiancrihfield Im 53 years old and my experience has taught me that knowing what you really want out of life is the secret to success. If you are doing something you love you will never work a day in your life. Life is hard and it's full of ups and downs but putting your focus on and trusting in God makes it a whole lot easier. I'm not saying that troubles won't come your way but dealing with those troubles is easier when you have a relationship with God.
@@SgtE5 I was in 2nd grade when the Challenger went up, and it's my generation's "where were you" moment. And my first grade teacher showed up at my job a few years ago.
@@stephaniegittinger7980 I was getting a haircut when I watched the Columbia burn up on TV. Teacher wheeled a TV into my class and watched as the second plane hit.
I was in 4th grade, watching it happen on Live TV as our school hosted a special classroom presentation for all grades to watch the first teacher go into space...
I was in 5th grade. My school of 16 kids in Montana were watching the launch live when it happened. As kids we knew something bad just happened but really didnt sink in till later. School was let out early that day.
Yes for sure. I was born in 72. This song takes me way back. Mark is performing in my town this Sunday. Hope he does this song live. It's gonna be great
I've had the privilege to see Mark Wills 3 times. Once at the Kinney Store in Kinney Texas right in front of the stage. I filmed the whole 2 hour concert and was even recognized by Mark for doing so. Mark Wills has been a part of my life ever since the early 90's. His music speaks to everyone who hears it's soul.
I was born in ‘95 and I heard this song growing up and yearned for an experience that I’ll never know. Y’all really got to experience the absolute crest of American civilization and many of my generation will forever envy the lives that you guys got to live. 🥲
I was born in 2001 and I wake up everyday wishing that it was 1970 or 1980 something and I had a chance to live like they did. It actually affects me everyday. sometimes I wish it didn’t because it gets in the way of me living my current life to the fullest. But I just can’t help it sometimes. It physically hurts.
@@tiaschofield8348 I grew up in just like the video. Even still have some the things in video. Yeah, it was great. No cell.😢 But life goes on. Get out and enjoy life, don’t get stuck in a virtual world..
Tomorrow, I turn 50. Although I was born in 64, I was raised in the 70's and 80's. I have never been one to boo-hoo about time gone by, growing up in my family wasn't anything I've missed. But I now realize how very much I miss my friends. Hanging out with them is what saved my life. I do miss the 70's, and the 80's: more than I ever knew.
I was born in 1970 and this song brings so many memories. Getting up early on saturday mornings and watching all the great cartoons and spending the evenings playing in the woods and fields around our farm. Like the song says i would not trade those days for anything.
Have loved this song since it came out, having been born in 1967 totally my life in a song!!! Remember the neighbor in our apartment crying when Elvis died (she was a fanatic). And was standing in the middle of Main Street in Leesburg, FL when the shuttle went up, had the tv blasting so I could hear the countdown and when it exploded I freaked as I knew it was not to do that. Very impactful song for sure. The kids today just wouldn't understand.
I’d love to be a ‘70s and ‘80s kid like several of my cousins, my stepbrother and stepsister. But everything in God’s timing. I was an ‘80s and ‘90s kid and I share some of these memories. Dealing with responsibilities and rarely seeing family that I grew up with “makes me wish sometimes” that it was 1980 something! God bless!
I was born in 86' so some of these references resonate with me. Played pacman at the arcade. I had a Stretch Armstrong. Had rubix cube. Watched MTV. Went to the skating rink. Miss those so-called simpler times when my parents would just drop me and my brother at the arcade without any concern. Going to the movies every Christmas Eve as a family. Feels like a lifetime ago.
I remember those days well! Doesn't seem that long ago! This song brings tears to my eyes just listening to the lyrics. I miss those days! Wish I could go back!
Was listening to this in our car two nights ago with my 14 year old daughter and I was explaining to her the lyrics and when he said "space shuttle fell out of the sky" I completely lost it. I've never done that before infront of her. It was uncharacteristic, but all of these 80's emotions flooded me. I was in 4th grade and remember that day very well. Man, what a song.
I'm not a country music guy but there is something about this song. It brings me right back to my childhood. So many memories came flooding back watching this. Thanks Mark Wills for putting a smile in my heart.
This song just popped up , I am in my car crying and thinking just how wonderful it was and understanding everything in this song . Born in 71 , I wouldn’t change a damn thing about my life from back then
Born in 75, this brings back memories of being a kid in the 80s. Man do I miss those days, just running a playing and not a care in the world, things were a lot simpler back then.
Saw Shrek 2 at least ten times Had a PS2 on my TV stand Rascal Flatts was my favorite country band I bought DVD's from a Blockbuster store I had a Spongebob mat on my bedroom floor And a facial scar from when I wrecked an ATV I was a kid when Michael Jackson died And my mama cried It was two thousand and something In the world that I grew up in Pop-punk and crunk-rap days Wore out my Rugrats tapes Looking back, I can see me Oh, man, I looked cheesy I wouldn't trade these days for nothing Oh, it was two thousand and something
I wish I knew Mark Wills so I could thank him. I found myself this evening letting go of a very painful past couple of years regarding my elderly Parents while I go through their/my things. I've loved this song for a long time, but never found myself crying over it. In fact, I always laughed about it (in a good way). But tonight, and this week after some major transition in my life getting past a very very dark time in my life that has spanned several years with Alzheimer's and legal issues by people who need to just stay out of people's lives, I found myself reminiscing and this song really busted my emotions open unexpectedly. I don't cry. Really never have since I was a tiny kid. Always put on the straight face, but I lost it tonight. Thanks @MarkWills for writing/producing/performing this song!

Born in '64 and this describes it all. Still remember when we replaced our B&W TV with a color set. String art on the walls. All the girlies into Bay City Rollers, ack. K-Tel records. Magic 8-Balls. Original Star Trek series. Imperial measure in Canada (gallons...not stupid litres). Comic books. We played outside. Walked to school on our own. In the 80s we had MuchMusic in Canada. We could still do basic repairs on our analog cars 'n trucks.
Love this song, it brings back so many memories. I had just about all of the toys it shows in the video. Lol I saw Mark last year, he's a real class act. He sings real country music.
Born in the late 70s. Yup, The 80s were awesome along with the 90s. Now today find my self wishing I could just go back to the beginning of my life and just forget about the 21st century and relive the 20th century again.
This song is so true i had a black trans am and spent every weekend at roller rink i had a stretch arm strong and it brings me back .was nothing better 80s forever . will never outgrow my youth im 54 and listen to 80s music everyday .im stuck .
Born in 71...yep...70s were nice...80s were the shiiiittt.....90's were pretty good... starting in 2000 the liberal democrats and hollywood destroyed America....
Hello Stacy 👋 how are you doing today?? Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello will make you smile.
8 track tapes...my nephew was looking through my stuff in the attic...he didn't know what my cassette tapes were at all and was iffy on CDs ...good thing he didn't find a record player up there 😂
I love this song, I just adore the stories to it :D I remember the days where me and my buddies would stay out from morning to midnight riding bikes and playing games! What great days~ :D
I discovered him last week 09SEP22 at the Grand Ole Opry and just fell in love with him and his music. This was the first song he sang and it talks about all my childhood, Dukes of Hazards (me it was Beau and Luke Duke) Star Wars, Rubik's cube, etc. I Loved the show.
Oh, okay. Thank you so much for the immense love and support, I know you must be surprised to receive a message from me, right? I hope you don’t stop listening to my music. Well, I don’t chat often on CZcams due to my busy schedules, we can actually talk more on Google chat. Do you have Google chat installed on your mobile phone?
Who else grew up with the Dukes of Hazzard and is NOT a "racist"?
I'm not a racist, kew kew!!
I just like to go fast. It's not hate it's heritage if people actually look at history. That's what's wrong with America now tmo
💯 brother they taught life lessons not racism
@jessjohnson-rocks would you be sarcastic to his face?
Not many 😂

This song is literally my early life and it is spot on. I am now 59 and this songs takes me back to a wonderful part of my life ❤
I was born in 68 and I love this song because I remember the time when I grew up
I was born in 1975 and the first time I heard this song, all I could remember was that I couldn't wait to grow up and be on my own. Oh, what a poor dream choice that was.....
I was born in 1982 and I got to see Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Everything, Van Halen, WWF Live, WCW, The best Horror movies, Rental movies. The 80's are the best!
I come to this planet mid August 1965 and boy this song Tells it like it was ...
I was born in 79 but I'm a product of the 80s and I don't care what anybody say I love old school country songs like this
I was born in the 60s, raised in the 70s and graduated in the 80s; This song gets me deep inside.

The 80's were fun as a kid. Grew up watching Knight Rider, Dukes of Hazzard, 80's action movies and playing in the streets.
Sykokiller im a 2000s kid but i love Knight Rider and 80s stuff
...and had to be home when the street lights came on.
I was born in December 1969 and I tell you that this may be the truest song of ANY classification! MTV did play 24 hours of videos... What a much simpler life back then.
Does anyone else have flashbacks that are just totally linked to the nostalgic country songs from 1995-2004
I thought I was the only one
But why ‘04 just wondering?

I was born in 1969. Each detail of the song brings back so many memories! Love it!
I love growing up in that era!! I wouldn't have changed it for nothing!!
Hello Christina
Was listening to this in our car two nights ago with my 14 year old daughter and I was explaining to her the lyrics and when he said "space shuttle fell out of the sky" I completely lost it. I've never done that before infront of her. It was uncharacteristic, but all of these 80's emotions flooded me. I was in 4th grade and remember that day very well. Man, what a song.
I was born in 1951 and love this song
Simply a good ole’ song.. from a city slicker

I didn't grow up in the 90s but this song still kind of gets to me. There's something vulnerable about realizing how time keeps us moving.
I'm not a country music guy but there is something about this song. It brings me right back to my childhood. So many memories came flooding back watching this. Thanks Mark Wills for putting a smile in my heart.
This song just popped up , I am in my car crying and thinking just how wonderful it was and understanding everything in this song . Born in 71 , I wouldn’t change a damn thing about my life from back then
Born in 1971 so this song hits the nail on the head.
Born in 75, this brings back memories of being a kid in the 80s. Man do I miss those days, just running a playing and not a care in the world, things were a lot simpler back then.
Born in 1964, all these things apply to me perfectly.. Love this song!
I was in 1965 yes perfectly here
Hello Stephanie
Born March 3rd, 1970. Feeling every word of this song.
love this song a lot, & I was born in 1965....
Its a shame they don't make music like this anymore
They can’t. The new generation is offended by everything. I mean why would someone get offended by things like syrup. Lol
@@lilbuni2004 Lol
I so fully agree,and i don't even know,any of the newer singers now!
@@MARYGAIL1000 me either!
We haven't had many years/decades worth bragging about lately.
I love this song! I grew up in the 70s & 80s and I wouldn't trade those days for nothing either!
Yep

I may have been Born in 1997 but I feel this song I grow up with my grandparents but I feel it for more then that
Saw Shrek 2 at least ten times
Had a PS2 on my TV stand
Rascal Flatts was my favorite country band
I bought DVD's from a Blockbuster store
I had a Spongebob mat on my bedroom floor
And a facial scar from when I wrecked an ATV
I was a kid when Michael Jackson died
And my mama cried
It was two thousand and something
In the world that I grew up in
Pop-punk and crunk-rap days
Wore out my Rugrats tapes
Looking back, I can see me
Oh, man, I looked cheesy
I wouldn't trade these days for nothing
Oh, it was two thousand and something
I remember those days. wish they were still here . anyone else?
Oh, hell yeah. Back then nobody cared about being politically correct
Me too
This song makes me feel happy and sad at the same time. Brings back the memories of my childhood.
I lived those days. I wouldn’t change them for nothing.
You know when your the biggest singer in the world and be in a country song (" I was a kid when Elvis died and my momma cried")
Hello Chelsie 👋 how are you ??
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤️
We will never get those days back.
cance7984 So true
Sucks but true
Youre just being honest
Born in 1990 across the pond but this is one of my favourite songs and can always lift my nood, no matter what ❤

LONG LIVE THE GENERAL!!! 🇺🇸
I wish I knew Mark Wills so I could thank him. I found myself this evening letting go of a very painful past couple of years regarding my elderly Parents while I go through their/my things. I've loved this song for a long time, but never found myself crying over it. In fact, I always laughed about it (in a good way). But tonight, and this week after some major transition in my life getting past a very very dark time in my life that has spanned several years with Alzheimer's and legal issues by people who need to just stay out of people's lives, I found myself reminiscing and this song really busted my emotions open unexpectedly. I don't cry. Really never have since I was a tiny kid. Always put on the straight face, but I lost it tonight. Thanks @MarkWills for writing/producing/performing this song!
God Bless you
Same
The glory days of America
I'd give up cable TV, the internet and smart phones in a second if I could go back to the seventies and be twenty something again.

What an awesome song! Always brings back my own childhood memories!💗
Born in '64 and this describes it all. Still remember when we replaced our B&W TV with a color set. String art on the walls. All the girlies into Bay City Rollers, ack. K-Tel records. Magic 8-Balls. Original Star Trek series. Imperial measure in Canada (gallons...not stupid litres). Comic books. We played outside. Walked to school on our own. In the 80s we had MuchMusic in Canada. We could still do basic repairs on our analog cars 'n trucks.
i was born in Nov 1971 ...the 70s and 80s was the best time to grow up ....that comment was from my uncle lol I’m only 30
Also the 90s
Was born in 1969.... grew up during this time. Best time ever!!
Nov 1971 as well
2000 here. Still adore this song
I was born in 71 also the 80's we're the best time ever
Love this song, it brings back so many memories. I had just about all of the toys it shows in the video. Lol I saw Mark last year, he's a real class act. He sings real country music.
2 OF THE COOLEST CARS EVER, WE HAD AWESOME CARS BACK THEN,,, MISS THOSE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!
Oh how I miss those days!! I was born in 1969, so I remember all of this very well!!
General Lee and the Smokey and the Bandit Trans-Am. Sweet.
That's Dukes of Hazard
That’s my favorite part of the whole video. Is getting to see them
Smokey And The Bandit is an awesome movie and the Dukes Of Hazard is a bad to the bone tv show and i kinda like the Dukes Of Hazard movie as well.
I’m only 14 and this is the sickest thing ever
@@tannerlittle9769 I’m 16 and I love this video and song
Just heard this song for the first time. What a piece. Gives me optimism.
Stay strong everyone. Better days are coming.
Sending love from the UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Who in the hell are you sending love to ? America is just fine despite what the small intense minority says on tv. Yeeee haaaawww
Born in the late 70s. Yup, The 80s were awesome along with the 90s. Now today find my self wishing I could just go back to the beginning of my life and just forget about the 21st century and relive the 20th century again.
This song is so true i had a black trans am and spent every weekend at roller rink i had a stretch arm strong and it brings me back .was nothing better 80s forever . will never outgrow my youth im 54 and listen to 80s music everyday .im stuck .
I was born in August 1972. Totally agree with you. The '80's were the best!
may 1972
August 75 need to make a time machine and go back when people wanted to live not whatever we do now
Born in 71...yep...70s were nice...80s were the shiiiittt.....90's were pretty good... starting in 2000 the liberal democrats and hollywood destroyed America....

I discovered him last week 09SEP22 at the Grand Ole Opry and just fell in love with him and his music. This was the first song he sang and it talks about all my childhood, Dukes of Hazards (me it was Beau and Luke Duke) Star Wars, Rubik's cube, etc. I Loved the show.
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤️
🔥🔥🔥🔥 stilll a hell of a song 🤙🏽🎶💯
Easily the best song ever when it comes to actually telling a story that's not about some cliché topic. What a banger!
i mean growing up is a topic a lot of country singers go to when writing songs.
@@ryanforster8761 But they were not written as good as this one
@@danhendrickson7708 Young by Kenny Chesney
@@ryanforster8761 That song is ok. The lyrics are definitely me when I was a kid
I love this man's voice.
It was 1990 something in the world that I grew up in. Man do I miss the fucking 90s
I was born in 1973 every single thing he said I can relate to!! Love your face 😍

Oh, okay. Thank you so much for the immense love and support, I know you must be surprised to receive a message from me, right? I hope you don’t stop listening to my music. Well, I don’t chat often on CZcams due to my busy schedules, we can actually talk more on Google chat. Do you have Google chat installed on your mobile phone?
