We've got the cult upstairs and the rock band downstairs and disaster was bound to strike. Good song set against a weird music video that didn't really fit.

this song is one of the best songs of all time, for me

For a fan of jazz, blues, funk and R&B music, this song between the melody and the lyrics, is like a flamenco song sometimes, feels like a gospel and fits in a blues-jazz playlist.
Between the lyrics that are both reflective and uplifting, the video that feels really blues, the melody that is really catchy, and well, those lyrics really work.
Makes alot of sense that the video was filmed in new orleans, after all, it should be one of the most blues songs that only blues people can get it.
Thats why have nearly 4 billions views, is about everybody who at some point feels lost, but at the same time give you uplifting lyrics that this is just who you are.
When finally hit 4 billions, i want to say, part of those billions views were me.
Is a song i wish i could have writed, is just my kind. You can sing the song even with no music, and still works, is that good.
Is the anthem for this generation, we survived losing relatives from covid, we survived bullying, and we survived being outlaws...and we are counting stars.
I still remember the night i found the video...was like the video, for some reason that night lights werent working fine, there was rain, and tv failed, till the music video appeared in a music channel.
The fact this is a 2013 song, and still i can feel it, say alot, is hard to say another song besides this or green day holiday, can survive alot of years and still sound great for me.
Maybe those lyrics about waiting a better future, or that sometimes ive made wrong things that feel right, or rights things that i cant do...the 4 billions were simbolic, this song help me discover this band, that have alot of great songs.
Is one of my anthems, thats hard to say.
The song have a kinf od melancholy, mixed with rap and even flamenco feels...is like me, im a mix of alot of things.
The perfect song for me should be easy to sing, have nice ritmo and lyrics you could relate...well, this song already won.
The accoustic versions are even better with the only sing part, only guitar part...is like, i wish one republic knows, they made a song that say alot about life, and i never feel tired, never.
